Having regard to the healthy mutual

foolhardiness when state that the streets

streets Of all the others. What tnhabitant
of what city could forgive this: Yet l
must state II. Much of what l said OF the
streets Of New York applies. In my su-
perficial opinion. for instance, to the
streets of Chicago. 1t is well known that
TO the Chinaman all westerners look
alike. No tourist on his first visit to a
country SO astonishing as the United
States is very different from a Chinaman:
the tourist should reconcile himself 70

Chicago is a great mystifier and beau

them together will write as much poetry
on the sky as the single word ILLINOIS
that hangs without a clue to its suspen-
sion on the murky dusk over Michigan
avenue. The visionary aspects Of Chicago
are Incompatible.
Another difference of quite another or
der between New York and Chicago Is
self-conscious. New York is not; no
metropolis ever is. You are aware OF the
self-consciousness of Chicago as soon as
YOU are aware of it's bitumen. The quail

is useful: there even comes with years a
certain art which permits the manipula-

FINGER PRINTS FOR BABIES.
How New York Guards the Identity
1. of Abandoned Little Ones.
From the Survey.

From the survey.
In the borough Of Manhattan. n. Y,
in 1911 more than one hundred abandoned
babies were taken to Bellevue Hospital
alone TO be cared for by the public or
passed on to private charities.
In the same year this hospital received
as maternity cases about 500 women.
Usually a woman leaves the hospital two
weeks after her child is born. Now many
of the babies brought as foundlings to
Bellevue were born in this same institu-
ton, taken away BY the mothers and
later abandoned no one can tell. Nor
can it be known which of them were born
in the oth1- hospitals in :ssw York. Once
in q great while a founding baby Is
recognized by the nurses as one OF which
they already have record, and the mother
is thereby discovered. But the identiflca-
ton of the babies and consequently OF tive
mothers can be accomplished in every
case and by Tie simplest possible proc
ess-finger print the babies.

two minutes. and all in the ward could
have been accomplished In an hour or
two. These Impressions can be taken by
any one with a little practice. Classified

knowledge. but are not difficult to learn.
Only an expert, however, is familiar with
the thousand ways in which two finger
impressions may be distinguished.

In the driving contest, the entrants
were allowed three drives. the aggregate
distance to count as their score. Because
of fouls, many of the best players in the
club made comparatively low scores. the
rule being that a drive leaving the course
while in the air would not count. and that
if ball struck fair and then rolled foul
the distance from the tee to the spot

builders. the immigration leagues and
honest employment agencies can and
ought to do much more than they are
doing for the Industrious aliens who
would cheerfully ''go west" or SOUTH or
anywhere, and take up land or do farm
work while waiting for better chance.
Ignorance and want of facilities for dis
tribution cause the congestion and over
supply Of unskilled labor we hear so
much about. Many remain in New York
or other ports of entry simply because
they do not know how to get away and
where to seek real opportunity.
Let us organize the distribution OF
aliens and assimilation will be much

assimilated; whole foreign colonies"
are extremely indigestible. The colony
is sufficient unto itself, becomes insulated
and isolated, and lives in America" only

At Bannockburn, the players were pair

into two-eights, and the first and semi
final rounds of each of them were de-
cided yesterday, the finals to be played
tomorrow afternoon.
Several good matches were among those
decided, the best being that between H.
NJ. Hall and Daniel l.. Hazard in the first
round Of the first eight, twenty-five holes
being necessary before the result could
be determined. Hall finally won on this
one, l up when Hazard missed an easy
putt. Throughout the match both men
played excellent golf. neither ever being
more than one hole to the good.
Another good match was that in the
first round Of the first eight, when DIR.
T. J. w. Brown defeated Walter /.
Trayers, up. The winner ran down a
pretty putt on the eighteenth green which
gave him the match. Browns medal
score was u, he having gone out in A
