quarters on Baxter Avenue to the
rural Home Will be halted unless
the appeal for money is answered
by the mothers of Kentucky.
The call of the country has echoed
throuhout the crowded city Home
for the 100 children that fill the old
row Of former residences which
have been converted for many years
into the quarters of the institution.
Two of the buildings of the cot
tage village are nearly completed,
but the wOrkmen must lay down
their tools, the children must forget
the happiness they had longed for
If the appeal fails. George l..
Sehan, Superintendent of the Society
is asking the mothers and school
children for sufficient funds to COM
plete the village, in order that the
future Home may be dedicated to
the school children of today.
More than 3SOO children have
been taken in by the Society since
its organization twenty-five years ago
and today in every community of
the State are men and women
among the representative citizens,
who owe their success in life to the
Society which saved them from the
evil environments of the county
More thousands of little ones,
destitute and friendless, await long

Assr'caa in Ranks
r-.-7sfs SrSf sayt.

Washington, Nov. z. -America's
greatest war hero manages his old
Kentucky home on $3.50 month,
and his chances Of handing over to
Mrs. Samuel woodfll larger sum
for the household budget att Fort
Thomas waned considerably today.
Senator James w. WadsYorth,
~Jr., New York, informed Senator
Richard p. Ernst that the latter's
bill to retire Sergeant woodfll with
his former rank of Captain and pay
as such likely would not be repotted
out of the Military Affairs. Commit
tee.
Other Failure Given As Cause
Mr.. Wadsworth's position is that
passage of such bill, even for the,
country's greatest hero. would be
improbable in view of the failure
some time ago of similar bill in
behalf of Alvin York, a Tennessee
Sergeant.
Mr.. Ernst, however, disagrees
with Mr.. Wadsworth to the extent
that he thinks Sergeant Woodfll's
recognition as the outstanding war
rior of them all would preclude a
sound attack on his bill. He an
uounced his purpose to continue his
efforts for his measure.
Has Many Appointments
Meanwhile, Sergeant Woodfill
continues to enjoy his new and sud-
den fame. His list of appointments
for the day rival in number that of
the President, whom he will visit
Friday.
Sergeant Woodfill's base pay as a
Sergeant is S54 month, to which
is added longevity pay for service,
making his monthly pay $S4.60. =.
Big game hunting was favorite
pastime of the intrepid Kentuckian
in the days when he was stationed
with the army in Alaska. He start
ed out by killing a squirrel when he
was 10 years old and wound up by
bringing down nineteen Germans in
one day in the Argonne.

COPS QUELL OUTBREAK

Rioting at the Bedford Reformatory
for Women has been renewed, and one
OF two men who tried to stop one of
the outbreaks is suffering from pains
in the stomach where he was kicked,
and a guard Is nursing huge bump on
the head. Among the hills about Bed
ford at least two feminine inmates are
roaming. ready to turn fiercely upon
the male who dares attempt to drag
them back.
Having been allowed 10 leave their
cells after Major Amos T. Baker took
over the Job as superintendent of the
reformatory, the inmates appeared to
be doclle. The armstice was upset.
however, a few days ago. and the Bed
ord village police were called on FOR
aid. These officers confirmed reports
yesterday that when they gained the
reformatory yard they found negro
women inmates gathered OUTSIDE Flower
cottage, where they are quartered. with
knives, stones, clubs and fire hose.
They had bowled over the reform
atory guards with the hose. One Of the
Bedford cops performed the clever feat

the water supply, dllIOu6h PiSHty VI
stones and sticks were hurled at him,
and the women were subdued and
locked up.
Dorothy Smith and Mary Taylor,
white, made dash for liberty after get
ting possession of the key to Elizabeth
Fry Hall, and have not been seen SINCE
That was three days ago. Two more
prisoners fled late Friday, but were
captured after they had run half mile.
Four other women made bold and ener-
getic attempts to leave Bedford, but
were caught by fleeter guards.
This was Major Bakers first serious
trouble with the inmates. but when he
was seen yesterday he said rather for
mally that everything was quiet and
that reports of a race riot among the
inmates were not justified, as there was
no racial animosity harbored there. TWO
of the negro women who were quelled
after the incident of the hose were
returned in chastened mood to their
cottages yesterday. he said. The super
intendent said he was not greatly
alarmed over the disappearance of the
Smith and Taylor women. and that a
search was being continued which he
believed would be successful He only
hoped that they would be found before
they got lost or exhausted trying TO
find their way out of the hills.
