some s9s0.000. 900.
Mr.. Baker is a modest, unpreten-

his big Inheritance.
The facts appear to be, however,
that SO years ago one Colonel Henry
vania for a cash consideration II acres
of land in and about the city OF Phil
adelphia.
The state in turn leased 1t to indi.
viduals and corporations and great

The lease expired last month and
when the Pennsylvania officials began
to make inquiries as to who the prop,
erty should revert to it developed that
Baker had died without issue and with.
out a will.
The facts, 1t appears, were advertis-
ed in the Pennsylvania newspapers
and came to the attention of Mr.. Ba-
ker. of this city. Upon investigation
he discovered that he was a great
nephew OF the deceased millionaire.
Mr.. Baker has two sisters living,

AUGUSTA LOCALS.
THREE DIPHTHERlA CASES
Make Their Appearance, the Patients Bejnu
Smith Grammar School Pupils.

Three cases of diphtheria have an
peared in this city. All are among
the pupils at the Smith Grammar
School building and much anxiety is
felt by all concerned lest the disease
should spread throughout the school.
The present outbreak appeared first
in the family of William II. Pierce at
Ia Prospect street. Roland Pierce, a
12-year-old pupil in the eth grade of
the above mentioned school, was taken
i'll. Friday, Jan. 10. A physician was
called and pronounced it a case of
tonsilitis. The second day it was still
supposed to be that disease but, the
following Monday, the physician found
that it had developed into a case of
diphtheria. He Immediately placed the
family under quarantine. But up to
this time the sister of the afflicted
child, Celia Pierce, had been attend
ing school, being there that very fore
noon. Mrs. Pierce was also at her
work at the Edwards mill.
The other two cases have appeared
since the Pierce case. Earl Bean, the
S-year-old son of George Bean, who
lives on the East side. was taken with
the disease about noon, Wednesday.
veloped into Il very bad case, but the
anti-tOxin treatment was administered
and, last night, the patient showed
signs of Improvement. The last case
to appear was that of Helen Mccoy.
an S-year-Old child living on Bridge
street. This case was not definitely
decided to be diphtheria until last even
ing, when a final examination was
made. 1t had previously, however,
shown strong symptoms.
All these children, as has been pre-
viously stated, had been attending
some of the grades in the Smith school.
The Pierce child which had the con-
tagion was in the 18th grade room, his
sister was in the 4th grade and the
last two cases came from the room
used for the End and 3rd grades. All
these rooms are on the same floor and
all are closely connected. In the last
case the child afflicted with the disease
was in school until very near the time
of being taken down with it. The
Bean child was there the day previous.

said that, while the sessions would be

pertaining to railroad operations which
it would not be fair to have the public

ground that he covered when he testifi-
ed at the inquest.
John B. Cade, signal expert, was ex-
amined next. He said that he knew of
few tunnels where the difficulties were
SO great as in this one. He thought
that the system installed there was
about as perfect as it was possible to
make it. Charles H. Plat, general su-
perintendent of the N. Y, N. H. & H.
Road, came next. He held the same
opinion as Mr.. Cade.
The hearing will be resumed, tomor-
row.
