MARY HELD THE BABY That Was Two Months Ago and the Mother Never Returned. An Episode in Judge Miller's Court Mlustrating a Serious Phase of City Life. One afternoon about a month ago Mary Frances Lumkins, who is a colored maid- of-all-work, was standing at the corner of 7th street and Florida avenue, when a voung colored girl stopped on the corner with a two-months-old baby in her arms. ‘That sho'ly is a pretty baby,” said Mary Frances, striking up a conversation. “He's a nice baby, dat’s right,” replied her new acquaintance. “How ole is dat child?” ‘He was bawn on de second of las’ Au- gust.” “I sho’ wish I had a baby like him,” said Mary. “Well, lady, won't you please hol’ him jes’ a minute, while I go round the corne Mary was only too glad to take care of such a nice little baby, and she at once ex- pressed her willingness to be obliging, es- pecially as it was only for just a minute. But it was the old, old story. Unlike the cat that came back, the young mother was de- tained indefinitely, and has not yet returned. “And de result was, jedge,” said Mary to Judge Miller this morning, “I'se been hol'ing dat child ever sence.” = Mary was in the Police Court to ask that her charge should be turned over to the board of children’s guardians. She sa‘d she was out at service and unable to take proper care of the infant. She was accompanied by Agent Parkman, representing the board. “How much does it cost to take care of these children?” asked Judge Miller. “About $10 a month.” “They come rather cheap at wholesale, it seems,” remarked the judge. “At $10 a month,” continued the judge, “a dozen of these children would cost the taxpayers of the D’strict of Columbia $120 a month, more than $1,000 a year.” It was not a comfortable thought, but there was nothing else to do with the child than to turn it over to the board, and this was done. ———.-_ — A $45,000 Deal.

The statement at the White House yes- terday that the President was detained at Woodley by the consideration of his annual message to Congress turns out to have been intended as a joke on the public, for a matter of fact the President spent the day fishing at Shepherdstown, W.
