The Polish people of South Chi
cago appealed to County Commits
sioner Stanley Kuf1ewski and he
made a trip to the County Hospital
yesterday.
But Kufiewsh is one of the Demo-
cratic members of the county board
and Chapman is too well-trained a
soldier of Mccormick to do anything
for him.
Chapman backed up Doc Wood. 1t
didn't bother him that the girl was in
a serious condition. Politics was poll
tics.
The girl needs hospital care now.
Her mother goes out scrubbing every
day. And there would be no one home
to care for Amelia.
So Commissioner Kuf1ewsk went
down in his own pocket and the girl
was taken to the West Side. Hospital.
Kuf1ewski announced that he
would bring the case to the attention
of the County Board.

CHAPMAN REFUSES CARE TO
GIRL FIRE VICTIM


Warden William o. Chapman has
brought the fight of his chief, A. A.
Mccormick, against the Democratic
party into his work at the County
Hospital in refusing attention to lit
! tie girl, who was brought 81 miles
to the County Hospital after being
badly burned by the explosion of a
gasoline stove.
The girl, Amelia Ostrowsh, IA
years old, was injured Thursday night
in her home, 8712 Buffalo av., when
she had started preparing supper for
her mother, a scrubwoman.
She was horribly burned and was
carried in a stretcher to an Illinois
Central train, on which the run to the
city was made.
A police ambulance met the train
downtown and the girl was rushed
to the County Hospital There they
received a shock. The sleepy attend
ants called DIR. D: O. Wood.
Doc Wood, who is the best politi-
cian-physician at the hospital, abso-
lutely turned down the case He said
it wasn't a hospital case. A similar
decision on the part of the County
Hospital a few months ago caused |
the death of John Lyons.
They refused to even give the girl |
emergency care. The police were
nonplussed. They didn't know where
to bring the girl But they were more
humane than Wood and they started |
out to find place for the girl.
They finally got attention for the |
girl at the East Chicago avenue sta
ton. But after that came the ques-
ton of caring for the girl overnight.
She was at last taken to the female
prisoners quarters at the South Clark
street station.
DIR. Robert Lenard, who first at
tended the girl in South Chicago, was
amazed when told that Doc Wood
had turned the girl out without care.

BAPTIST NOTES

The Baptist church appreciated
very much the large number of
friends who came to worship last
Sunday and hopes for still better
things in this respect in the flu
ture. Progress was manifest in the
organization of young mems
class, by the pastor, for education
al and social work, and also in the
organization of young peoples
choir by Professor Wickland. Both
of these, we feel will add very
much to the life of our church and
to these we invite all young people
who are not enjoying such priv
leges, yet woulN like to do so.
Come and help us to make them
more enjoyable and profitable.
Services for Sunday, October 25,
are to be as follows:
Sunday school at 9:45 a. M.
Morning worship at IL a. m.
Topic-"We Seek You, Not Your
Money"
Evening Service at 1880. Topic,

The Ladies' Auxiliary invites all
members and friends to meet With
them at the home of Mrs. G. r.
Taggart on Thur sday afternoon,
October 20. They also wish to an
nounce that they are in the paper
business again this fall and would
be greatly obliged if all those who
have newspapers, magazines, etc.,
that they want to get rid of would
kindly call up phone 385, which
will see that they are quickly re-
lieved of these things.

STUDENTS INDIGNANT

of the New Richmond high school.
in his address. delivered before the
Northwestern Wisconsin Teachers
Association in Eau Claire last Sat-

featured in a New Richmond pa

Some of the New Ri h m n d
young people were especially in
dignant, and justly so. oY er a
statement by Mr.. Neverman to the
effect that many Normal school
students are high school "dis-

STEWART MERCANTILE CO.
OPENING

! Stewart Mercantile Co opening
The formal opening of the Stew
art Mercantile store last Saturday
was notable event in many ways,
and far exceeded all expectations
in the matter of attendance. 1t
drew the largest crowd of shop
pers ever assembled in this city and
probably the largest ever assem-
bled in any city of this size in the
| Northwest.
1t was impossible to keep any
definite track of the number of
people who visited the Stewart
store that day, but some idea of
the activity at that place might be
formed from the fact that Mrs.
Wheelock and her assistants serv-
ed over 5000 cups of coffee dur
ing the few hours of her demons
trations and lectures.
Every isle and corner Of the great
store was packed with people all
afternoon. River Falls people, for
the most part, deferred their visit
until evening, the a f ern O o n
crowds being composed of rural
visitors and those from neighbor-
ing cities, anS there were a large
number of the latter, Ellsworth,
Hudson, escott, Hammond,
Spring Valley, and most of the
other ST. Croix Valley towns be-
ing well represented.
In the afternoon splendid mus
ic was furnished by Mr.. Howard
and Mr.. Crane, on violin and harp,
and in the evening cornetist was
added to the orchestra.
The sales on this day were also
greater in volume than the COM
pany had even ventured to hope
for. These were not confined to
the special bargains, but kept up
steady rush in all departments
throughout the day.
The special feature of the day
was found in the department pre-
sided over by Mrs. Wheelock. Mrs.
Wheelock is the foremost author
ity and most able teacher and dem
onstrator in matters pertaining to
cooking that this part of the coun-
try affords, and the people show
ed an enthusiastic appreciation of
her work. She is giving cooking
lessons at the store this week, two
classes each day, and is having a
large attendance at each session.
The stew art Mercantile Com
pany is undertaking a big enter
prise in this great store, an enter
prise highly creditable to River
Falls, and the people of this city
and vicinity should take pride in
contributing to it's success.
