WAYMAN IS ATTACKED
IN ARSON CASE

Chicago insurance companies

evidence to States Atty Hoyne

they wouldn't let us.

Several ministers have agreed
to take the child and place it in
some. private home where it will
be given a name and never know
the tragedy of its mothers and
fathers life.
Florence Seymour wants the
child, she loves it, but for this
very reason she has agreed to

The Last of Our Old Sbips

A few historic ships of war still
grace the navy list, and, associated
as they are with our most illus
trious days afloat, 1t becomes not
only matter of sentiment but of
duty to preserve their stout and bat
tered hulls as inspirations to patriot
ism and an object lesson in our an
nails of the sea. Ech of these ia
nous vessels has in its day made
history for us. And the traditions
clinging to their names and deeds
are still cherished among the price
less inheritances of the nation.
Two of these-the Constitution
and the Constellation-were laid
down nearly 12O years ago, and it
may be urged without undue pride
that the Constitution was the great
est frigate OF her era; indeed, the
most notable single ship that has
ever flown our pennant. The Ports
mouth was the speediest sloop of
war in the days following our hard
earned independence and is the one
ship most intimately associated with
the marvellous story of our Pacific
coast. The Hartford, flagship of
that great seaman, Admiral David
Glasgow Farragut, is still kept green
In the memories of this generation.
Let the country guard these sur
vivors, for while their number is
small their legend is immeasurable.
And yet unless Congress interposes
these old bulwarks of our liberties
VIII soon be numbered among the
forgotten or the lost ones ranged

A HOME SONG.

l turned an ancient poets book,
And found upon the page;
stone walls do not a prison make,
Nor iron bars a cage"
Yes, that is true and something
more,
You'll find where'er you roam,
That marble floors and gilded walls
Can never make a home,
But every house where love abides.
And friendship is a guest,
Is surely home and home sweet
home,
For there the heart can rest.
