WHEN A BABY DIES

One hundred and sixty-seven babies
died in Detroit during July and Au-
gust as a result Of drinking impure
milk. Jane Adams says: Because
women consider the government
mems affair, they have become so
confused in regard to their tradition
al business in life, the rearing of chill
dren, that they bear with complacency
statement made by the Nestor of
sanitary reformers that one-half OF
the tiny lives which make up the
city's death-rate each year might be
saved by a more thorough application
of sanitary science. Because it i'm
plies the use of the suffrage, they do
not consider it women's business to
save these lives"
When a baby dies-when a baby dies,
When the white lids droop DER the
wondering eyes,
When the warm red mouth with it's
wistful smile
That made us glad such a little while
Is still and cold; when the blithe wee
thing
That we loved will laugh not, nor
play, nor sing;
When the clinging fingers relax their
grasp;
When kiss or a prayer, or the loving
clasp
Of longing arms, in a close embrace,
Can bring no smile to the wee white
face;
When the purple shadow begins to
creep,
And wells the face for it's long, long
sleep,
All, how can we know, be we ever so
wise,
What is lost to the world when baby
dies?
When death has taken a little child,
Where are the smiles that he would
have smiled?
Where are the gurgles and chuckling
COOS,
The love-talk that only the babies
use?
Where are the romps and the baby
plays,
And the thousand alluring baby ways?
Where are the dimples that used to
play
Hide and seek all the live-long day
In the cheek so soft and warm and
pink?
Where are the sunbeams that used to
link
In a chain of gold through the baby's
hair
And fingered lovingly all day there?
Where are the lisping words he spoke
In a soft little voice that paused and
broke
Over the words-oh, so hard to say
In any but just the babiest way?
Where is the gaze so wide and wise
That used to be on those baby eyes?
Where's the joy that throbbed like a
living thing
In our hearts when we felt the round
arms cling,
And held so close that tiny form,
So pulsing with life, so sweet, so
warm?
head
Made in the comfy, soft white bed,
Now all unrumpled, and smooth and
white
Through "nap-time" by day, and
'sleep-time" at night?
Where is the touch of the moist red
lips
That he give when he stood on his
''footy-tips"
And held out his arms and begged to
Gomez"
All, but it's tragic to count the sum
nf tho 0nOd fhof fatn RI Iffn do

When baby dies-when a baby
dies!
And where is the man that he might
have made,
Strong and sturdy, and unafraid,
If he had but lived-if the ebbing tide
Had called him Motif he had not
died? Detroit News.

rection of Justice Anderson.

Quinter, examiner in chancery. He was
bound to secrecy when appointed. Three

sented by Attorney Nathaniel Wilson,

dan Circle. The residence is at 16T

Property mt Tenth and Water
Streets Insanitary.
When the lease to the fish wharf ex-
pires, on March Is, 1913, and the District
again takes over this property. from
William W. Riley. lessee. the entire
group OF frame buildings at Tenth and
Water Streets probably will be con-
demned and destroyed, on the ground
that they are dilapidated and insani-
tary and constitute "a serious menace
to the whole city"
The board for the condemnation of
insanitary buildings yesterday submitted
to the Commissioners in its annual re-
port plans for the construction Of a mod
ern market at this point for the sale Of
fish, oysters, and other sea food.
1t Is further recommended in the re-
port of the board that a policy Of con-
demnation of the slum districts Of the
city be adopted. with a view of convert
ing them into interior parks This work
has already been begun in the condem-
nation of Willow Tree Alley. Congress
has. appropriated $4,000 for the purpose
of converting this district into an inte-
rior park. Goat Alley, between Sixth,
Seventh. L. and NJ Streets, and Navy
Place. between Sixth. Seventh, I. and G
Streets, have been recommended to the
Commissioners for condemnation and
conversion into interior parks.

TOERECTMEMORIAL
!. TO CLARA BARTON
Association Organized Under Laws
Of Delaware to Provide Tribute
!, to Red Cross Founder.

For the purpose of conducting cam
paign to raise funds for the erection
Of hitting tribute to the memory Of
the Clara Barton Memorial Association
has been organized.
Although the organization was effected
some time ago. publicity has been with
held so that plans might mature. The
association has connected with 1t many
prominent persons. who recognize the
services which Clara Barton rendered
mankind, without regard to race or ma
tionality.
=, The organization is chartered under
the laws of Delaware. The president
is Francis Atwater, a wealthy, resident
Of Meriden. Conn. Mr.. Atwater worked
with Miss Barton for years in the per-
Torrance of the philanthropic work and
Is now deeply Interested In the erection
OF some token of remembrance OF the
services Of the good woman. Other off,
GERS have been elected. but their names
have not yet been publicly announced.
A constitution for the association has
been drawn up and printed.
Among the prominent local persons in
terested In the movement is Mrs. John
A. Logan, a close friend OF Miss Barton.
Mrs. Logan. who has devoted much OF
her life to literary pursuits, has prom
ised to give Il 1-2 per cent of the pro-
ceeds of her new book toward the memo
rial fund.
1.-The memorial will. In all probability,
be erected in Washington" said Mrs.
Logan yesterday afternoon. This is the
logical place for II. Although the nature
OF the memorial has not been decided
upon, / am of the opinion that II will
be in the form Of a museum to contain
Miss Barton's manifold relics, rather
than a monument or statue"
The headquarters OF the association are
now at Meriden. Conn. the home OF the
president.

PATENT OFFICE DECIDES.
Awards Decision I'm Wireless Dis
pute TO Guglielmo Marconi.

Another step toward the rapid clearing
UP Of the complexities Of the wireless
patent situation is the announcement by
II. E. Stauffer. Examiner Of Interferences
OF the Patent Office. that a decision has
Just been rendered awarding priority of
invention to Gugiielmo Marconi over the
wireless inventions OF Prof Reginald A.
Fessenden.
The invention specified involved a trans
nitting apparatus for wireless telegra-
ply. Fessenden contended that since his
application was filed while the applica-
tlon Of Marconi was pending, It appeared
that Marconrs patent. No. ?S5SS1, issued
September IS, 1909. was inadvertently
granted In view of Fesssnden's applica-
ten. He also alleged that an earlier ap-
plication filed by him in 1906 contained
features substantially the same as those
in the patent granted Marconi This mo-
ton was denied on the ground that Il
was not brought within the time allowed
for filing motions. but Fessenden was
Permitted to introduce the earlier appli-
c3tion In evidence. The right OF Fessen-
den TO go back to his earlier application
was made an issue, but the Patent Of
fee could not find that the subject matter
of Marconfs invention was disclosed
therein And as Fessenden's later appli-
cation. which was the one directly in
VOWED. was substantially the same Is his
earlier application. II was decided that
he had no right to make the issue, and
the award must be to Marconi
