are at present % at the home. This
is less than half the number of
applications.
Forest Park Farms at Brandon were
purchased and the buildings have been
put into proper repair at total cost,
including purchase price and improve
ments, Of a trife less than $4,000
This leaves q little over $40, 900 of the
appropriation made by the legislature
which was $65, 900, and the work will
be begun as soon as possible in the
spring on new buildings on the farm
The latest Improvement at the farm
is the connecting up with six-inch
main to the village water supply,
which will take care of any future de-
mands made by the home with an ex-
ceptionally good supply of water. The
plumbing has also been made modern
and all of the buildings on the farm
are fitted for permanent use so that
the home, which was bought at a low
figure, makes very good purchase for
the state Plans for the new buildings
are already under way and an archi-
tect will be put at work on them SO
that building will probably be begun
in early spring. Those children who are
at the home are under proper super
vision, taught to work much on the
same plan as that by which the indus
trial school at Vergennes is carried on

L. H. Clarke, general manager of the
Hearst estates, said last night that he
had received a despatch yesterday
morning from Mr.. Hays detailing in
brief the seizure of the Babicora ranch,
with all the foremen and employees who
were not Americans, that is, five
Americans and one Englishman.
Villa seized the place about ten days
ago and looted it. Two of the employees
escaped, one American, J. P Barker,
and a Mexican. They reached Ell Paso
yesterday on horseback, having been
on the road for nine days.
The Babicora property, about one
million acres of land and 10000 cattle,
belong to William Randolph and Mrs
Phoebe Hearst, mother of William Ran
dolph Hearst. About 800 Mexicans are
employed on the place. The Mexicans
were not molested by Villa as far as is
known here. Whether the Americans
and the Engishmen are being held fol
| ransom also is not known, but Mr.
Hearst s Washington correspondents
has notified the state department OF
the seizure and appealed for action
| looking toward the safety OF the
| Americans.
The despatch which Mr.. Clarke re
ceived also stated that 10 Americans
employed by the Madero company, ad
| joining the Babicora ranch, had alsC
/ been seized by Villa, but that they
were expected to come cut of Mexico
in day or two. All the Madero com
pany employees who were taken by the
/ Mexican bandit were Americans.
Mr.. Clarke said last night that mas
| much as Villa Is outlawed It is ex
| pected that the property will be re
stored in a short while. The safety Of
| the Americans and the Englishmen Is
the chief concern of the Hearst repre-
sentatives.
