IAKBI TO
HOME FOR
CHILDREN.
J. 1 eutcher, traveling agent for the
Boy' and Girl' Aid Society of Oregon
wa in the city yesterday and while here
found five children who from now on will
be benefited by the advantage of that
institution which ha its home in Portland.
Mr.Teuscher represents a non-sectarian
association and when he secured per
mission from County Judge Henry to sep
arate the little folks from their mother,
he intended to take them to a place
where they will be forced to strict disci
pline, but will be tutored and schooled in
the public schools of Portland until the
Home finds suitable private homes for
them.
Yesterday morning Mr. Teuscher ca li
ed the county court' attention to five
children and after a careful investigation
into the home surrounding of the children
in question, the court gave its consent.
With the assistance of Marshall Rayburn
the children were picked up and this
morning they left for their future homes.
The mother of the girls and boys were
at the depot this morning and with heart-
rendering sobs and tear parted with
their loved one.
Four of the five are children of Mrs.
Swager of Old Town. The oldest. Coin,
is eleven, Rivia is six, Hill is four and
Init i three.
The reason for removing the family, is
that the mother was found to be incomp
etent to properly care for them and
educate them.
. The five is a boy of eight called Dewey
Potter, and wa removed because his
mother is unable to properly care for
him and has no method of controlling
him. He has been loafing on the streets
considerable and it was thought best to
place him where he could be properly
educated and where a kind but firm hand
will teach him the rudiments of discipline
In no case were the parties of an irr.-
moral character, but the parent were
incompetent to rear them.
If the rest of the management i a
kind a 'd considerate a the traveling
agent, the little tot will fare well. The
school has conducted this business for
twenty-one years and is well versed in
juvinile generalship. It is a charitable
institution and depends on public dona
tions almost entirely for support. The
State make it an allowance or four
thousand a year.

the limit of human endeavor, had been
achieved. The hippodrome tent is the
largest ever made, and will comfortably
accommodate twelve thousand people.
The menagerie annex is almost as big
and shelter more than one hundred cages,
dens, and lairs of the rarest wild animals.
This department of the big shows is
singularly impressive, because it exhibits
not only more rarely seei, wild creatures,
but many of these specimens are to be
found "owhere else in captivity. A fierce
bi-horned nhnoceros, the rarest and most
expensive of all wild beasts, is in this
collection, as are two great far like eared
elephants of African origin, a blood
exuding hippopotamus, three herds of
elephants, full grown and symmetrical
types, and a nursery of baby wild
animals, like kitten tigers, cub lions,
quaintly hopping kangaroos, floundering
seals, light-eyed leopard, homely hyenas,
and so on. All of the artists, or nearly
so, in the big arenic program are fresh
faces to the circus patron of this country,
and make their first appearance to win
American laurels under the auspices of
The Great Adam Forepaugh and Sells
