CORONER BALKS AT THE
GENEROSITY OF A MOTHER

VINELAND, y. J., Aug. 6.-Dr.
George Cunningham, the coroner, was
recently called to see a sick baby in the
home Of widow at Minotola who had
five other children. The doctor found
the infant dying for the want Of food,
and he persuaded the mother to let him
have the baby to put it in good home.
Today the doctor got a message from
the mother that because of his kindness
to the baby the mother was willing to
give him the other five children. The
doctor thought this was increasing his
family too rapidly and hurried to the
house to protest.
