When Baby Complains. | wl Cheerfulness and RestXontaiM There are many ways a baby has of "Or expressing any pain or irregularity or digression from its normal condition of \ ) health and happiness. A short sharp V XzFC i cry, a prolonged irritated cry. Restless- *j r ) ness, a constant turning of the head or 'UI A' rzHzT—of the whole body, fretful. In these f\s Con and other ways a baby tells you there V \ <i revH *£sj£ep is something wrong. .Most mothers ! j||J re suitin^rfw!Li!il!! f6nty know that a disordered stomach, or hi! bowels that do not act naturally are the £& o cause of most of baby’s sufferings. A iljji| JfifiZji'ca call for the doctor is the first thought, ’ hut in the event of any delay there jJjjjji should be ready at hand a safe remedy >iit[ such as Fletcher’s Castoria. Castoria has been used for baby’s ailments for over 30 years and has merited the good will of the family physician in a measure not equaled by any other baby’s medicine because of its harmlessness and the good results achieved. And remember this: Castoria is essentially a baby’s remedy and not a cure-all for every member of the family. What might help you is too often dangerous when given to a babe. To avoid imitations always look for the signature of Proven directions on each package. Physicians everywhere recommend it.

Prisoners Made Desperate Over Loss of Parole Hope, Belief. I ' WARDEN, THREE KILLED Believe Two of Convicts Committed Suicide. fit/ I nifrd Prrn. NEW YORK, Nov. 4.—Riflemen, special guards armed with riot guns and machipe gunners w'ere ordered on duty at all prisons here today to prevent a repetition of the murderous outbreak in the Tombs Wednesday in which four men were killed and three w'ounded. A feeling of unrest prevails among the thousands of criminals, authorities believe, and they have been afraid for weeks that n wholesale outbreak would be attempted. It came suddenly Wednesday and the Tombs guards were caught unaware. Three notorious criminals tried to shoot their w'ay out, and almost, succeeded. They killed Warden Peter Mallon and Jeremith Murphy, a guard.- Two of them, Robert Berg and Hyman Ambefg, were killed. The third, Michael (Bed) McKenna, was dying In a hospital today. Daniel O'Connor, a guard, was In the same hospital, seriously woundeTl. The other casualty was J. A. Studwell, an office worker, hit in the hand by a stray bullet as he witnessed the siege from an eighth-story window. Seen by Hundreds The battle was witnessed by hundreds of office workers and other spectators from the big buildings surrounding the tombs, whose win dows look down on the Jail yard. In the yard, the prisoners were shot down after they had withstood attack for more than half an hour. A riot call had been sent out and police converged on the prison from every part of the city. Rifles, machine guns and revolvers were brought into play and the prisoners, shooting from the prison yard at any living thing that showed, were under fire from the prison walls, the roof, win down and from the office buildings Many bullet wounds were found In their bodies, hut spectators said ail three turned their weapons on them selves, when, wounded and outnum hered, they decided tr give up the fight and die rather than be taken alive. The attack came at 3:lt In the afternoon. The three men were prls oners on the fifth tier of cells. Feign Illness Feigning Illness as excuse to he brought to the ground flo< -of the prison, the three dashed for the front entrance. There they met Louis Lorch, the keeper on duty, and demanded hi:, keys. "Go to hell” was the retort of the guard as he ran for the rear of the prison, taking the keys wtth*hlm. David vLyneh, a prison van driver, who had Just arrived with a load of prisoners, came in from the street and opened fire on the bandits, driving them toward the warden’s office. Warden Shot Warden Mallon, hearing the firing, went to the office for his revolver. The bandits turned their fire on him as he came out. A bullet passed through his arm, entering his body, lodging In his chest below the heart. He died in a hospital several hours later. Frustrated in the attempt to leave the prison by the center street gate, the three ran to the rear. There they encountered Jeremiah Murphy and Daniel O’Connor, gate keepers and again demanded the keys. Murphy was killed and O’Connor wounded when they refused to unlock the gate. Not daring to take the time to search the keepers for the keys, the bandits entrenched themselves behind a pile of coal. By that time policemen had , reached upper windows In surrounding office buildings that commanded j the prison yard. Their fire made the coal pile barricade untenable and the bandits took refuge in the small i guard house that is built into the I prison wall.

Commits Suicide All hut Berg. Spectators in tli office buildings saw him stop and 1 if. his gun to his head. At a cry from one of his pals he lowered the gun, hut raised it to his temple again. It apparently missed fire, for he was seen to lower the weapon a second time, adjust the action and then raise to his head. As the weapon was discharged he leaped in the air and fell, lying motionless. Police reserves and details of detectives with machine guns had ar rived and pelted the yard with steel jacketed bullets. Orville Halstead, police officer off duty, was one of the first to begin firing from outside the prison wall. He heard the shots and mounting a fire escape opened fire on the bandits. One of his bullets struck Amberg in the arm. • Rushed the Ymd Officers of the Industrial squad finally rushed the yard. A workman named Kelly was in a ditch in the yard when the battle began and narrowly missed death as hoth sides fired upon him during the fight. He saved himself by lying in the ditch. Blame New Ijiw Authorities today said they believed the new Baumes law had caused the many habitual criminals in prisons here to lose their heads. The Baumes law ends the parole 'abuses which enabled criminals in the past to commit major crimes and escape almost without punishment, and ensures that when they are once arrested, they stay behind the bars for many years, if not for life. Several reoent attempt to smuggle weapons into the tombs and other nearby prlsohs have warned authorities of what was coming. Commissier of Correction Wallis ‘o’v j c ~cil the Tom’s
