a sanitary point of view exist, accord
ing TO DR.. q. r. Gallen, city health

thorough cleanup of the city and their
work was largely responsible, it is be-
lieved, for the absence of any epidemic

GIVEN SANCTION TO PRO-
POSED REDUCTION.

Al The supreme lodge convention OF
the Knights OF Pythias held in Denver
recently the assembled delegates vot-
ed to lower the age limit of the society
from twenty-one to eighteen years OF
age. The new law, however, will not
be effective until it has gone back to
the subordinate lodges TO receive their
approval or rejection. 1t is expected
that the ruling viii meet with no OPP
position from the subordinate lodges
as during the last few years the mem
bership of the order has fallen off i'm
the country, and it is thought that the
lowering of the age limit Will be the
means Of introducing considerable new
blood into the society.

substantial sum of money for the
erection of "A monument To the mem
ory of the late General James A. Car
nahan of Indiana, founder of the uni
form rank. which was requested by the
Indiana delegation.
The propositions affecting the insur-
ance department of the order and pro-
posed by Benjamin Sullinger of Iowa,
were all voted down. These embraced
the enforcement of the insurance de-
partmcnt from the order. or the APP
pcintment of a commission of supreme
lodge members to investigate thorough
ly the whole matter and report back to

confesses She Poisoned Eight Babies.
Mrs Winifred Ankers, the attend
ant at the Brooklyn IN. " Nursery
and Infants hospital, broke down
and confessed after two-hours'
interrogation by the police that it was
she who had put oxalic acid in the
milk prepared for the babies in the
hospital, causing eight deaths and four
sicknesses since Monday.
Her purpose, the girl said, was not
to kill the children, but to make it ap-
pear that nurses in the hospital,
against whom she had a grudge, were
not taking proper care of the chill
dren.
Mrs. Ankers has a baby of her own
in the hospital He is not sick. The
police brought her to the point Of con-
Tossing by threatening to take her
baby away, whereupon there was a
hysteric oulburst, in which the young
woman sobbed out her story of how
she had dropped the oxalic acid into
the milk bottles.
Ever since the case of the eight
dead babies was called to the atten-
tion of the authorities Mrs. Ankers
has been under suspicion.
