ITALIAN STM'R
REACHES \, Y,
WITH REFUGEES

New York, Sept 1.-The Italian steam
er Principessa Mafalda, chartered BY
John f. Jones, American consul at
Genoa, at a cost of sls4, 900, reached New
York today from Italy with 3sS wealthy
Americans aboard and unoccupied cabins
with space for 200 more. Some of the
passengers paid 5000 for a cabin: none
paid less than 500 and the average cost
to all aboard was approximately $780,
The present of empty cabins was ex-
planned by the declaration that although
there were many Americans in Italy
who wanted to return home, they were
unwilling to pay the fares demanded for
the voyage.
An option upon the Phincipessa NATAL
da, which has been in the Souht Ameri-
can service, was obtained in the name Of
the United States government When the
option expired, Mr.. Jones had not re-
ceived authority from Washington to
the government and a party of Ameri-
cans guaranteed the required $4,000
The vessels owners RENTED the ship
for the voyage and divided the steerage
into cabins.
Among the passengers were Henry
Roberts, former governor of Connecticut.
Mrs. Benz. Harrison, widow of the for
mer President of the United States, was
one of the Ryndam's passengers.
Reaching port at almost the same hour
as the Principessa Mafalda was the Hol-
land-American liner Ryndam with 1885
passengers-332 in the steerage-of whom
1912 were Americans, Scores of the Ryn-
dams passengers were virtually without
funds and 81 were absolutely destitute

PATHETIC PLEA FOR CHILDREN.
Words of Charles Kingsley Worth
Heeding by Every Man and Wom-
an Of Any Worth.

Do not deceive yourselves about
tho little dirty, offensive children in
the street, II they be offensive to
you, they are not to him that made
them. Take heed that yc despise
not one OF these little ones: for say
unto you that In heaven their angels
do always behold the face OF my faith
er which Is in heaven" Is there not
In every one OF them. as In you. the
light that lighteth every man that
cometh into the world? And know
you not who that light Is. and what
he said OF little children? Then take
heed. ] say. lest you despise one OF
these little ones. Listen not TO the
Pharisee when he says: Except the
little child be converted. and become
as am. he shall in nowise enter into
the kingdom OF heaven. But listen
to the voice OF him who knew what Is
In man. when he said; Except ye
be converted. ye shall not enter into
the kingdom OF heaven" Their souls
are like their bodies, not perfect. but
beautiful enough and fresh enough to
shame anyone who shall dare TO lool,
down upon them. Their souls are
like their bodies, hidden by the rags
foul with the dirt of what we miscall
civilization. But take them to the
pure stream, strip off the ugly. shape
less rags. wash the young limbs again
and you shall find them, body and
soul. fresh and 1.-THE, graceful and
capable-capable OF how much God
alone who made them knows.-From
Charles Kingsley's Address on Hum,
an SCOT.
