NEGLECTED. CHILDREN.
Pathetic Case Investigated by Miss
Nickerson at Bucksport.

An especially pathetic case Of alleged
cruelty to children is among the most re-
cent of those of Miss Juiiette Nickerson,
the agent for the Society for the Preven-
tion of Cruelty to Children, resulting, it is
stated, in the death of an infant about nine
months old.
About four weeks ago Miss Nickerson
was called to Bucksport to investigate
case of alleged cruelty and neglect, and
found two children, belonging to a woman
by the name of Pinkham, who has been
neglected, it is alleged, by the mother.
A few days ago Miss Nickerson was
notified by the authorities that the
mother was in Jail for sixty days, and
for her to come and look after the chill
dren. One was about nine montes old
and the other about three years. She
found them in an old dilapidated house
about three miles out of Bucksport, on
country road. The baby had practically no
clothing wearing an abandoned dress be-
longing to an eight year-old child. The
older child was cared for by its grand
mother in a camp across the way.
After going to Ellsworth and consulting G
with Sheriff Jellison, it was decided to
bring the baby to the Jail with its mother.
On going out Tuesday, Miss Nickerson
found the baby dead, and taken to its
grandmother's camp across the road. She
was informed that the authorities had
DS6H uOllHeu VI lu6 uedlu. puL as
they had not put in an appearance she
started out for the village of Bucksport.
On her way she met the undertaken and a
clergyman, and they returned to the camp
The child had been laid out with practi-
cally no clothing outside OF a ragged
nightdress, and wrapped up in some old
pieces of cloth. and preparations were be-
ing made to bury it in the middle of an
open field, just as it then was.
Miss Nickerson refused to let the body
be buried like dumb animal with little
or no ceremony in the field, and after the
undertaken had consulted with the au-
thorities, the little body was properly pre-
pared and taken to the cemetery The
mother was informed of the death of the
child, but expressed no sorrow.
Clothes have been sent for the little
three-y year-old girl, and Miss Nickerson
will take it to State home.

BARRIERS, Pullman car porters and every one

league, ?. E. Dove, OF this city.
From to-day on" said Mr.. Dove, the
crusade against tipping will be waged In
earnest, for the victims OF this pernicious
custom realize fully that the time to break
the chains which bind is now or never.
And when this was told to g. walter In a
well known uptown hotel he laughed, and
said, when asked when the tipping custom
would cease: Never
'"rhe day is past of the genial hotel pro-
prietor who welcomed the coming ana
speeded the depai ting guest" continutd Mi.

hotel proprietor Is q fast disappearing relic
of old-fashioned travelling. Big interests,
hotel syndicates and combinations of hotel
proprietors are rapidly applying wall street

from 200 to 800 per cent on food? Some
do. We don't. Can't and serve table
