Foundling Left in
Automobile Suffers
from Long Expo:
Numerous anxious applicants for
the adoption of the month-old babe
that was abandoned in the automo
bile of Arthur J. Marsh, 4101 North
Twenty-first street, Tuesday night,
will have to await the outcome of the
foundling's illness before action is
taken, ' according to Rev. S. L.
Dowd, acting head of St. James
Orphanage during the temporary
absence of Father Roach.
The babe is suffering from expos
ure to the weather during its sleep
in the automobile, Father Dowd said.
Many Omaha people called person
ally at the orphanage to catch a
glimpse of the babe. It was found
wrapped in a frayed nightgown and
dirty quilt in the car which had been
left standing in front of 3336 Mere
dith avenue.
The babe had been there several
hours it was learned. Mf. Marsh
brought it to the police station and
left it in the dare of the Police
Matron Gibbons. , ,
Police have made no identification

Omaha will enjoy a real maeJesl
treat on Saturday night, Kevember
o, wnea tat Vatican Choir, eotn-
Soted of notable singers front the
oman basilicas will give a eeneert
at the Hunicioal Auditories.
The choir, which is eompostd of
AJ voices, and includes the foremost
soloists of Sis tine chapel, St Lat-
eran ana saint .Peter s basilica, is
recognized as the ereatest poly
phonic organization ever assembled
m the world s history. It is under
the personal direction of the great
Maestro Raffaele Casimiro Casim-
iri, world famous choir leader.
The organization, which arrived
in New York on August 18, has
never been heard outside of Rome
for 1,600 years. Its first concert in
America was given on August 18,
in Carnegie hall, under the aus
pices of the City of New Ydrk.
Mayor Hylan of New York, and
his reception committee were pres
ent at the concert, and presented
the choir -leader with a silk flag
bearing the coat-of-arms of the city.
In touring the United States, the
choir is stopping only at the larger
cities. It comes to Omaha from St
Paul. A feature of its concerts, is
the fact that no musical instrument,
not even to pitch the, voices, is
used. - The personnel of the choir
is all male, and ages range from 9
to 68 years. .
Arthur Ryan, a director of the St.
Gregory Musical Society of New
York, which is directing the tour,
called on Archbishop Harty today,
and was promised the co-operation
of the Catholic churches in Omaha,
in presenting the concert here.
So that meals served in hotel bed
rooms can be kept warm an in

ble, under the top of which are as
bestos insnlaterconipartments to
carry the food.
