PROBE OF THE
Two new sensational rumors en-
tered into the states attorneys probe
into the 'baby farms today. One
had its origin in the search for mil
ionaire daughter, who is said to have
become the mother of a baby in
farm" at Oak Park.
The other sensation was the dis
covery of evidence tending to show
the existence of a baby farm" syn
dictate, with staff of doctors and
midwives, who made a speciality of
dealing with unmarried mothers.
The cases against DR.. Thomas Bal
hatchett, Mrs. Annie Mills, Mrs. Jessie
Ridden and Miss Mary Patterson,
who were arrested following the
death of Jacob" at the house of
mystery, CLOS Blackstone avenue,
were called in the Court of Domestic
Relations this morning and trans
ferred to Chief Justice Olson for re-
assignment.

is cooperating with the police in an
effort to. find the real heads of the |
syndicate, the men who are making
the Teal money out of the girl

Mrs. Mills, keeper Of the house of |

on to assist in the determination of
the farms. Several Of the oldest doc
tors, who practice in that manner,
long ago became afraid of the police
and took up their quarters in the sub
urbs, beyond the jurisdiction of the
Chicago police department.
If any raids are made on these
places it will be by the deputy sher-
ifs, working out of Zimmer's office.
O'Reilly is laying all plans to en-
snare the heads of the syndicate. He
is being somewhat-baffled by the re-
fUsals of the mothers, who have de-
livered children at the farms, to talk.
A girl living on the South Side was
placed under surveillance, but when
asked to make statement, which the
police believed would have completely
proved the existence of a syndicate,
she baked and refused point blank
to make any exposure.
The state board of health will also
take part in the fight and right now

of any licensed physician who is in

pleasure.

After being pursued closely for
several days by a posse of men and
bloodhounds, the two men who
held up the Great Northern train
near Rexford last week, have
apparently eluded their pursuers
and made their escape.
Special agents of the railroad
overlook the robbers in the noun
tains not far from Fortine, Mont,
Sunday, the pursued men having
taken refuge in a barn. While
attempting to locate the robbers,
Detective Callahan was lifted up
by his companion so he could look
into the haymow of the barn.
The robbers were there, he soon
found, and opened FIRE upon Gala
han, one shot grazing his temple
and tearing off the rim of his hat.
This led to various reports, first to
the effect that Callahan had been
killed and later that he had beeu
shot through the shoulder.
A pistol duel followed at the
barn but the robbers succeeded in
getting away. Later a posse of 40
men and eight blood hounds from
St. Paul took up the pursuit, the
hounds taking the scent with ease.
However the pursued men took to
river, which of course rendered
the dogs of no avail thereafter.
AT last reports the men had appar-
emily succeeded in GLIDING the
posse.

Grade Exercises Pleasing

The unanimous comment heard
concerning the grade exercises
given at the Utopia theatre Tues
day evening is to the effect that it
was one of the most pleasing
programs ever given by the public
schools of Boomers Ferry.
When one attempts to differenti-
ate between the various numbers
in regard to their relative degrees
of excellence-or in other words,
their likeableness-one is at a
standstili, because they all were
pleasing to large degree. As is
most always the case, the first
grade pupils won their full share
of applause in their attractive drill
The Boquet of Daisies. - Every
one likes the little tots, and their
efforts are always fully appreciated
The number by the third grade
was also more than usually pleasing
the always pretty May pole dance
holding the attention of the pleased
audience during the entire number
The Snow Maiden" was unique
and attractive, and the playlet
When Brother Phil Went Walk
ing" achieved its full share of the
evenings pleasure. The musica
numbers were all we'll rendered
and delightfully."- received by the
audience.
The attendance was very crafty
ing and the net receipts were abou
$500.
