while later one of the f.imily found Foster
lying on the buck porch with the hulf
empty bottle -of cnrbnllc ncld by his side.
He was conscious, but nimble to speak,
and died three hours later without wtvlni:
h word. City Physician Rice and Dr. Smltli
TiellliiRer were summoned, but efforts t
(counteract tho effects of the add rtrowil
fruitless.
Foster wub about S" yeurs old and his
former homo was In Aldon. Ia., where his
parents live. He w.ia a brick mason by
trade and was a member of Bricklayers'
union No. 1 of Omaha. He had been In
tho employ of the Capital Construction
company of Omaha for some time He
serred through the Philippine campaign,
nrat as a member of the Fifty-flrft Iowa
volunteers and later in the Eighteenth
infantry. 1
City Physician Rice declined to oxpress
,an opinion aa to whether his death was
accidental or Intentional. W. J. Barrj'.
with whom Foster had roomed on and off
for several yearn, said that ns far as ho
knew the dead man had no troubles of any
kind which would prompt him to take his
life; that he had not appeared despondent,
but had bee"n ill wtih a bnd cold for several
days. He snld he wis of the opinion that'
Foster drank the carbolic acid In mlntake
for medicine he was taking.
Tha two-ounca bottle of carbolic acid
of which Foster drank half of the contents,
bore no label. It was stated at th Barry
home that Foster had been in tho habit
of uslng the acid on corns.
The body was removed to Cutler's under

Ii.ipi lMOiiment that cannot be longer than
five years awaits the matron of the baby
farm in this city who abandoned two little
baby girls than one month old, the
abandonment resulting In the death of one
from starvation. The officers of the Iowa
Human" society will lay these facts be
fore tho proper e.timmlttrciH of the next
legislature and use them pot only as a
lever to git a more ndrrjaaie punishment,
but nlno for the purpose rf getting a bill
for an Inspection of such homes.
At the la' session of the legislature an
effort was made to get a proper punishment
lrovd"d for persons who mistreat babis
I that first see the light of day In Iylng-ln
Imepitali. Some of the tales told by the j
officers ef the Iowa Humane society, in i
raes where they nre convinced In their
own minds, but lack sufficient evidence to
prosecute, are simply horrifying.. The leg
islature, howevtr. turned down the request
for letter laws the last session.
The last case to come to public notice Is
tile abandonment' of two little baby girls
in a house tear Greenwood park. The per
sous running the Iylng-ln hospital moved
out Friday and It was the Monday follow-
lug the babies were discovered by accident
, by neighbors. Tho babies were less than a
I month old. One of tliera died from starva
tion a little while after discovered, all ef
I forts to save it proving futile. The other,
under skillful medical attention, survived
and is now adopted into a Highland park
home.
For the murder of the lMiby that died the
j only punishment Is "not to exceed five i
I years in the penitentiary," provided for by
section 47W of the code.
At tho present time there Is no super
vision whatever of tlifse "baby farms."
and there are many uf them In Des Moines,
as well as other cities of Iowa. The
mothers of the babies try to forget thc-tn
and are In a petition to "ask no questions"
as to what becomes of the Infants. Iu
many cases they are told that the Infants
arc el-ael and never see thni after tev
ore born. There Is no stale supervision
over their el!nrxaal and indications a-e
that many of them are disposed of accord
ing to the worst fears of the -officer of
the Iowa Humane society, but In a man
ner more humane than that of the Infant
starved to dith last week, because the
suffering Is less prolonged.
Searching; for Old Documents.
I The judiciary committee room of the
house and the two office rocinu adjoining
are piled and stacked with documents,
books, boxes and letter files. After a full
month's work the persons Id charge of in
dexing and cataloging the documents to be
placed in the ball of archives ore not one
third through with the documents from the
governor's office alone. At least two
months more, work will be necessary and
then the stuff taken out will still have to
be placed In the proper cases and cabinets.
When the secretary of the' state's office Is
reached it Is expected It will be worse yet,
and the auditor's offlt:e Is simply appalling.
At the last session' of the legislature
there was enacted a bill providing for a
hall of archives in the historical building
Into which should be placed all documents
and letters and other material more than
ten years old.- Mr. Parrish of Iowa City,
a pupil of Prof. Shamhaugh,-Is at work in
th stato house classifying the material.
The governor's office was tho first attacked
for old docunie.nts. The material was all
moved to the house Judiciary committee
room, one of the largest committee roonis
In the stato house, and chairs and tables
are literally covered with documents;
When the work of taking the documents
to the committee room was started Mr.
Parrish rummaged through the vault In the
governor's office and discovered an upper
gallery to the vault and leading eitt from
this gallery by a narrow passage was dis
covered a little room 7x9 feet, which was
litterally filled with documents, some of
which are the oldest official papers Issued
by the state. A letter from Ribert Liwu.
territorial governor, to his adjutant general
ordering him to re-palr at one to Van
Buren county and enforce order when
civil war broke out In 1839 over th
boundary question, was among the letters
found In that room.
Tie official Journal of Robert Lucas, the
Urn territorial governor. Is In exlstance,
but there la a big gap In the official Jour
nals from that time on until fifteen years
or so later. It seems to have beef, the
custom of the governors to consider their
journals private property or else they are
lost. Mr. Parrish is making a dllligent
search through all the dark corners of the
rtMe nouw, and there are many there, to
see if he can find there journals. He has
claiming It was not because the news
papers did not publish It. He wa Informed
the ceremony was binding.

Chairman John H. Hamilton and Mr.

A train load of 138 persons leaves Iowa

the purpose of dedicating the soldiers mon
uments that have 'been erected to the mem
ory of the Iowa soldiers, who died there.
Governor Cummins and the members of tho
four commissions that erected th'e 'monu
