FOUR MOTHER A BABY
Vassar Girls Convey Little One From
Brooklyn to St. Paul.

Minneapolis, Dec. 24.-Some mother
in a humble st. Paul home is cele-
brating Christmas one day early with
her one year old boy brought all the
way from Brooklyn by four Vassar
students, according to Miss Mary Tur-
ner of Minneapolis, one of the four
girls into whose care the child was en-
trusted by the Brooklyn associated
charities. Miss Turner, who makes
her home with Mr.. and Mrs. A. H.
Poehter here today refused to disclose
the name of the mother to whom the
child was brought.
There was one way for that baby
to get to it's mother said Miss Tur-
ner, land that was for us to bring him.
The little boy had been left with the
associated charities by her when her
first husband died, and then she came
west and secured employment in st.
Paul. Recently she married again
and wanted her baby back. We girls
were only too willing to act as escorts.
Miss Katherine Lewis of Springfield,
ILL.,, acted as leader and is entitled to
most of the credit. The other three
girls stopped at Chicago and I
brought the baby the res tot the way
alone.
The child was no trouble at all.
He wanted to sleep all the time when
he was not eating, but when he hap
pened to be awake he just kept cOoH
ing. On the trip west we got to loving
him so it was hard to give him up.
IT was more than worth it, though
when l gave the baby to the mother"

DREAMS OF DEATH
AtchiSOn Woman Dying After
Waking From Dream.
Demise of Friend May Kill
Mrs. X. E. Cleveland.

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 24.-Unconscious
for the past nine days, the illness of
Mrs. K. E. Cleveland of Atchison,
Kan, is battling skilled physicians at
a local hospital where the woman was
brought early in the week.
The plight of Mrs. Cleveland follow
ed horrible nightmare in which she
dreamed she had died from ulcer pois-
Oning, an ailment which recently cauS-
ed the death of an Atchison woman
who was Mrs. Cleveland's neighbor
and closest friend. Accusing her hus-
band from his sleep Mrs. Cleveland
told him of her dream, and then laps
ed into Inconsistencies.
Although a long vigil during the
illness of her neighbor may have in
duced a collapse of the unconscious
womans nervous system, the phySi-
clans suspect q brain clot and are pre-
pairing to trephine the patients skull.

A WAIVER ON BECKER
McGraw Begins Preparations for
Spring Training.

New York, Dec. 24.-Manager John j.
McGraw took up work at the local Ma
tionaI League club headquarters today
to complete arrangements for the spring
training trip of the team. He said he
would have the young recruits report at
Marlin Springs, Tex, early in February,
with the regulars following about ten days
later.
He intimated that he would make few
changes in the lineup of his league cham
pion team for the beginning of the 1913
campaign He said he had asked for
waivers on Outfielder Becker, because he
was figuring confidently on the ability
of young George Burns as reliable sub
stitute, if not regular possibility IN
the oItfieId. He said he had heard moth
ing from Arthur Shafer, as to his reported
retirement, but if Shafer Joined the Giants,
in the spring, he probably would nave d
chance to play shortstop regularly.

BROKE RECORDS
Christmas Trade in Topeka
Was Immense.
Merchants Declare Exceeded
Hopes and Was Greatest.

Christmas shopping has been heavy
| this season. In fact, several OF the
merchants have stated that all rec
ords for volume of business have
been broken in their respective es-
Establishments. The Saturday trade
was tremendous, Monday business eX-
ceeded all hopes, and today late
shoppers throng the stores.
The number of out of town buy
ers has been particularly noticeable.
Fair skies have had considerable to do
with this fact-this together with the
special inducements offered this sea-
son by the local merchants. The To-
peka Rebate association reports a re-
markedly brisk business.
This is the big day for the grocery
stores. According to the proprietors
of these places of business, the peo-
pie are not only buying the usual line
of Christmas good things to eat, but
are paying fancy prices for imported
goods.
The Christmas buying began early
this season, and it was the fear of
the merchants that the shopping
would not close strong. However, the
streets were crowded this afternoon
with eleventh hour purchasers.
1t looks as though nearly every
one will be provided for in some
way. The Provident association, The
Salvation Army, the Elks club and
scores of other organizations are
Those who are well to do are look
ing out for themselves in elaborate
fashion. The indications, consequent
ly, are that there will be an abund-
ance of Christmas cheer Wednesday.
Saturday we did the heaviest
business in the history OF our estab-
lishment," said the manager of a To-
peka dry goods store today, and the
trade Monday was nearly as heavy. 1t
looks as though Wen have another
great day today" And the same kind
OF a statement was made at two other
prominent dry goods esta bIishments.
We have done the biggest business
in our history" stated the manager of
five and ten cent store today.
Beginning December 1, this has
been the best season since we have
been in business in Topeka, cover
ing a period of twenty-five years."
stated the manager of a leading mems
furnishing establishment.
This has been the biggest year in
our history, covering fifteen years"
said the man at the head of a local
jewelry store. The same story was
told at other stores where diamonds
and other goods of a like nature are
sold.
A groceryman stated that all rec
ordS have been eclipSed for volume
of trade in his establish ment A fur
niture man stated that the out of
town business has been particularly
good.
Here are few statements heard at
random. q SfsS&sFI AzskS
I'VE have done one-third more
business than last year.

year than ever in diamonds and
