'Drowned In skim Milk.

The people who live in the country
round about septimus Turner's farm
house, two miles from Bristol, Pa, can
not believe that Farmer Turner's grand
child, George Dwyer, was drowned In q
wash boiler full Of milk 1t is fact,
though, that Farmer Turner'S Il s. months
old grandchild was found drowned, and
that he was drowned In boiler full of
Farmer Turner's milk.
The drowning has caused sensation
among the people of that vicinity be-
cause the Turner'S are well known, and
nearly every wagon tbat passed the farm
carried some one who knew the bright
little toddler who met hts death on Mon
day morning. The cows on Turner's
farm were watered about sunrise and
then driven ov to the barn, where the
farm hands stalled and milked them.
Later the milk was carried over to the
springhouse, where Mrs. Turner and
little George Dwyer were.
Mrs. Turner took the child with her on
her regular morning trip to the dairy on
Monday, and while She attended to some
churning and other work little George
toddled around the spring house. A big
wash boiler of skinned milk was drawn
oil In churn aud placed on the floor,
around which the child in boysh glee
skipped and jumped.
Alter a while Mrs. Turner was called
to the barn and went there, leaving the
boy to play with the boiler filled with
milk. When he was Acne GeorRie
quieted and every few, seconds would
reach over the'side, dip his fingers in the
milk and taste 1t. Then he wanted to
see what 1t was that tasted so good, and
10 do so jumped up and down by the can,
looking over the rim every time he got
bis head high enough. Then the young
ster put one foot over the edge and
dipped his head in the milk to get a
drink. This was a fatal move, for the
child lost his balance and fell headlong
Toto the white fluid with feet sticking out
over the edge OF the can.
One of Mrs. Turner's little daus hters
came into the dairy, and, seeing Georgie's
feet up, ran and tried to pull her little
nephew out, but failed. Then she called
her mother, who lifted the child out. He
was dead.
