THE THREE SONS
OF THE PRESIDENT
PASS THROUGH RICHMOND EN-
ROUTE TO ST. LOUIS
A SLIGHT OVERSIGHT
Causes Considerable Mirth at Kermit
Roosevelt s Expense Met
tn, -1 With no Mishaps.
A SLIGHT OVERSIGHT

Three Of the sons of President
Roosevelt, Theodore, Jr., Kermit and
Archibald, passed through here this
morning enroute from Washington to
St. Louis. The boys travelled accom-
panied only by their tutor, and so far
had met with no accident Or mishap.
"We will stay in St. Louis two
weeks,'' said Theodore, Jr., "and we
don't intend to get into what Alice
did. Our tutor is travelling with us,
and he alone.'
The boys were dressed in monde
script costumes, "our oldest clothes,"
as Archie said, and this negligee-ness
led to an amusing result in the case of
Kermit.
He threw on his coat when the train
pulled in and with the rest piled off
for a stroll around the station. But
he had forgotten that a coat does not
hide carelessness and after walking
through the station, and observing
the trail Of broad smiles and laughs
left behind him he found out that he
had neglected to tuck in his shirt
hence the laughs. All of the boys
were in good health.

JESSE TAYLOR, AGED NINE
TEEN, WHILE CAMPING
LOST HIS LIFE
Rode Horseback Into Water-Struck
A Deep Hole and Boy Was
Drowned.
(Special to the Palladium

Milton, Ind, July 29.-Jesse Tay-
lor, aged nineteen years, was accl-
dentally drowned in Feeder dam last
evening about 6 O'Clock.
His home was at Spiceland and his
,tep-father, K. X. Kirk and his moth
err. also live there. With two neigh
Dor boys he was camping at the dam,
which is a popular place for outings,
and in the evening rode his horse into
the stream, just below the apron OF
the dam. They got into a deep hole
and in the horses struggles it is pos
sible the young man was struck by a
hoof, or perhaps overcome by the cold
water. which near the bottom is ex-
ceedingly cold. At one time all four
of the horse s feet were out of the
water at once. He was in the water
about ten minutes.
The young men hadsformed com
pany with similar group of camp
ers one from Richmond and one from
Newcastle and had the neighboripg e
farmers, J. w. Judkins and Frank
Connelley's families in for a ban
uuet, which increased the number OF
anxious watchers and workers to re-
vive the young man. Drs. Sweeney
and Roark were telephoned and as
sisted in the work of resuscitation
but it was too late. The grief of the
young companions was pitiable; com
panions since infancy they wept will
heavy sobs at their terrible loss. Th'
body was taken to Wright's under
taking shop at Cambridge City, wher'
the coroner will hold an inquest.

MANS HOME

joicing.

Especial to the Palladium

(Spoclal TO the falldQlum.)
Hagerstown, Ind, July 29.-The
home of Frederick Paul, an aged cit
izen of this place, who has been bed
ridden for many years, was yesterday
the scene of an old-fashioned Dunk
ard foot washing.
He joined the Dunkard church
many years ago, and was baptized in
the manner prescribed by the church.
As he advanced in years he doubted
the doctrine of the Dunkard church.
He felt that his stand against his
church 5 belief was little short Of sin
full, and felt impelled to confess his
error to the porper authorities and re-
quest to be taken back into good
standing.
His plea was heard by the elders,
and it was stated that Mr.. Paul would
again be received in good standing
if he would be rebaptized and public
" confess his error Accordingly, a
large steel tank was hauled to the
home of Mr.. Paul and filled with wa
ter. Mr.. Paul was carried out by the
brethren, and the Rev. Lewis Teeter,
an elder in the Dunkard church, per-
formed the ceremony of baptism by
dipping the aged man three times face
forward; once in the name of the
II athef, cnce in the name of the Son
and once in the name of the Holy
Ghost. After the ceremony OF bap-
tism the large audience united II
singing, and later a sermon was de
| livered by a visiting minister. The
ceremony of foot washing was OBJ
served by members present, and {
general time of rejoicing was had.
Mr.. Paul is unable to walk, but he
declares he feels no harmful result:
from his immersion and he says hi:
conscience is at rest.

OIL FEVER
Struck Richmond People a Good
While Ago.

1t is impossible to estimate the
amount Of investment that Richmond
people have made in oil during the
past few years, but there are thou
sands Of dollars worth of stock held
in this city. The fever struck Rich
mond several years ago and has been
steadily growing. Many investments
made by local people have proved val
uless, the companies being of the wild
cat variety. Others have brought
profits to the holders of stock.
The Ohio field companies have many
holders of stock in Richmond and
there are also many men who have in
vestments in the Indiana field. The
Delaware county strikes made this
summer are exceptionally good and
the companies there are faring well.

WELL KNOWN
 ANVIL BAKERY
The Leading Business in Its Line
 in Nome.

The Anvil Bakery is the pioneer bak- cry of Nome, having been established in 1900 by Mir. George Fitzgerald, who came here from Dawson in 1899. The bakery plant is equipped with all mod ern appliances and conveniences, and the prOprietOrs have shown their faith in the continued growth and develop ment of the country by installing a plant with & capacity far in excess of the population of Nome. Three large brick Ovens-the only brick ovens on Seward peninsula-are located on the first floor of three-story building, af fording ample room for the workmen. The second floor is used as store for the wholesaling and retailing of the products of the bakery. Delivery wagons are constantly on the move, supplying the many branches from the main factory, which is located on First street, opposite c street.
 The Anvil Brkery practically con- trols the business in their line in Nome, and this position has been reached by strict integrity in business dealings and the high class character of the products of the bakery.
 MT. George Fitzgerald still retains a J which helhas seen grow from small beginning into large, prosperous bus mess, and he has been largely responsi. ble for the growth and prosperity of the concern.
 Mir. J. J. Miscall, who for the past three years has been foreman in the bakery, has recently purchased one half interest in the entire bakery busi- ness. Mir. Miscall, who is also a pio- neer of Nome, having came here in 1899, enjoys the reputation of being one of the best bakers in the nOrthland.
 The firm own considerable real es- tate property in Nome, among which may be mentioned the three-story building in which the factory is located, and the old Piper building on Front street. In this latter building the main branch of the factory is located, and in connection with it, is run the finest and largest coffee house in Nome.

The Hobson brothers have taken out a winter dump on Iron creek, in the Kougarok district.
 John Jacobson and others took out a dump on bench of Nome river, near the U. s. Roadhouse.
 Beaver & Boyle, on the Florence tract, between Otter and Mcdonald creeks, took out a fair-sized dump, which gave satisfactory returns to the operators.
 w. P. VOse and H. M. Ball are min ing a claim on the tundra in the rear of Lanes pumping plant, and a good sized dump was taken out. They worked on the old beach formation and found it to pay better than wages. Bed- rock is about fOrty-two feet and the ground is frozen. A steam thawer, steam hoist and self.dumping bucket was the equipment used, and to good advantage.
 The "Dover" bench, located at the confluence of Little creek with Snake river, is the property of J. E. Hart, who worked the claim during the win ter in conjunction with G. A. Harvey, Thomas Millmore and H. J. Johns. The ground was thawed and pay was found at depth of twenty feet. They took out about 15,OO0 buckets for the spring wash-up, and the ground is said to be very fair pay.
 On No. 2 bench, left limit of Center creek, Olsen & Ellis have been working all winter with a steam thawer. Bed rock is reached at about forty-eight feet and is of mica schist, which is the prevailing formation of this country. The pay is found in an old beach wash, and runs little better than a wage proposition. A fair-sized dump was taken out. Ingalls, and others have re. gently purchased this claim. A bench off of No. below discovery, on Banner creek, left limit, owned by Sol and Joe Warren, is being worked on a lay by Milton Storm. Scanlon and others. It is 8 tunneling proposition, and an ideal claim to work, as the pay dirt, although low grade, is thawed and can be quickly handled by use ol wheelbarrows. The operators took Ou, large dump.
