Smith of Boston will deliver an address this evening in the THE CASE OF MINNIE GALES, timent Remarks on Cruelty to Children. Dr. E.M.Schaeffer,the deputy coroner, thinks that the law in this jurisdiction tor the protec- tion of children is lacking in many respects, animals have more lega! protection than the children. The case referred to is that of Mag- Jury decided, trom neglect and abuse,but from avenue Her parente are living. bat they are separaved ONLY SIX YRARS OLD. Dr. Schaoffer and the little one age. Two days before Maggie died Lieut. Ver- non received an anonymous letter calling at- tontion to the alleged ill-treament of the child end he referred the communication to Oficer Wilson of the Humane Society. That officer visited the child Thursday and conversed with her, but failed to elicit anything in the nature of proof except that she was ren by « wo- man in Baltimore, where she had lived. When Officer Wilton visited the house the child was able to walk about, and she had been in the street that afternoon. The officer discovered sears on ber face, and she said that they were made by her falling upon thextove. The officer concluded to put the little sufferer in the Na- tional Colored Home, and when he went for her the next morning he was surprised to find ber dead. WHAT AN EXAMINATION DISCLOSED. ks it was two years younger, When the child died that night the coroner | horseman is world was notified and he viewed the dead body,asdid Dr. Schaeffer. They found bruises and sores from ead to foot on the child, and they also found evidences of recent scald of the lo; and a portion of the body. One of the child's legs was covered with some light material in the shape of a bag, which had been sewed together, covering, as the doctors concluded, a painful wound, evidently a scaid, although the le in the house stated that’ she had not a scalded. Some saive was produced, and it was stated that the child's leg was biistered when tuat was put on it, but Dr. Patterson went to the drug store where it was purchased and iearned thot the salve wae nothing but cold ¢ream and could not have caused the blister- ‘The inquest was held after a careful ex- amination of the case and resulted as aiready stated. EVIDENCES OF RECENT INJURIES. Speaking of the case toa Stan reporter last evening Dr. Schaeffer said that he found upon the child evidences of recent injuries. Even on her chin he said there was a cut that looked as though it had been made with a stick. “The Little girl's body.” said the doctor, was covered with sores and bruises from head to foot. The scald wus very severe, and the shock resulting from such an injury was enough to have caused death. This terrible cruel treatment of ciil- dren is going on constantly, and they are strapped and beaten by inhuman parents or guardians with but few offenders being brought to justice. “It was shown that the child, although so young and in that condition, was permitted to work. It was stated that she had been in the habit of scrubbing every day and it was elicited at the inquest that she had been in the yard chopping wood not long before her terri- bie condition was made known, if * horse is found in such condition,” con- tinued the doctor, “and the owner or man in charge of it permits it to work he is held re- sponsible, but with a child such does not ap- pear to be the law.” HER LIFE WAS INSURED. that the child's life was insured in one of the Baltimore assessment companies.

The letter was referred to Officer Wilson, who will make further inquiries into the case. ee GEORGETOWN. THE SON ARRIVED TOC LATE. About 3:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon a middle-aged lady. attiredina black close-fitting dress and # sealskin coat, drove up in a neat country fix to the stables of W H Collins.

Y MAKING SHOPPING EASY, How Christmas Purchasers Are Helped at Baum's Big Store. The way through «great shopping emporium like Baum’s is made casy by the system adopted there, now familiar to the many patrons of the house, under the name of “star prices.” Especially is this true just now,when the minds of shoppers are filled with thoughts of Christ- mas and the selection of suitable presents to gladden the hearts of relatives and friends. ‘They want to get right down to the business at hand, and this is just what they can do at Baum's. In the various departments into which thia great stock is divided articles are selected which are especially sought for as Christmas presents, ‘Then a great cut is made in the usual prices and at this reduced figure they are offered for sale. It is unusual to make a — redueti at this season, but it is done to serve the best interests of customers and to induce them to attend to their Christmas buying now rather than to crowd it all into one week. Now you get the pick of the stock, and you are free from the annoyance of great crowis. All this week “star prices” will be on the banner that floats from this establishmen:. Few people realize fully the extent and maguitude of Baum’. ‘They do not appreciate the fact that the build- ing extends entirely through tie square in two directions, and that this great floor space is repeated through four floors. But it is nooes- sary to have ample space. In addition to the dross goods, the cloaks, men’s goods, gloves, neckwear, ‘blankets and other lines too numerous to mention there is displayed a Great aseortment of curtains and draperies, which is one of tho special featnres of the store. Then there is an extensive array of hats and bonnets, constituting one of the best assorted stocks of millinery to be found in the city. No mention has been made of the book department. Itis moro like a book store than a department ina greatestablishment. The prices aro perhaps more remarkable than anything else. Youcan get discounts on booktellers’fhg- ures that will cause you to open your eyes with astonishment, and give you a feeling that after all the works of the best authors are not beyond the reach of even a pocket book that is not plethoric, But even when that is the nor- mal condition of your pocket pook you will be pt to rejoice over the bargains that you find in the book department, as well ce those which can be had during the present weck while “star Prices" floats out in the breeze on the banner of Baw ee Changes at the Court House. Mr. Robert Willett, for several years past a deputy in the oflice of the marshal, bas re- signed that position to accept an assistant clerk's position in the office of the clerk of the court, made vacant by the promotion of Mr. John RK. Young to the clerkship so long filled by the late venerable R. J. Meiga.
