Stanford Student
Dies While in
Bathing.
Sad End of Career
of Bright Law
Scholar.
Special Dispatch to Tn. Call.

STANFORD UNIVERSITY, April 30.
Little Laguanita Lake. the diminutive
body of water just back of the univer-
sity, was the scene of tragic accident
early this morning. Robert Fountain,
a senior in the law department, while
in bathing was attacked by heart fail
ure and sank before assistance could
reach him. Five minutes later res
cuing party had the body on shorea but
the unfortunate student was past aid.
A Coroner's jury pronounced heart
failure as the cause of death.
Fountain was to have graduated
from the university within the next
two weeks. and he had already begun
to take the final examinations. He was
good swimmer, and it was his habit
TO leave his rom in Encina Hall before
breakfast each morning and take a
plunge in the lake. This morning he
was accompanied by his roommate,
John Gordon, and the two dived into
the water about the same time. Both
were strong swimmers and Gordon
started out in the lead. He had gone
only about twenty feet from the shore
when he heard his companion gasping
for breath. Gordon turned, but Foun-
tain had already gone out of sight.
Gordon thought at first that his room
mate was merely diving but when
minutes elapsed and there was no sign
of Fountain he dived for the body.
With the help of others on the bank
he succeeded in getting the body to the
shore. Simple measures of resuscita
ton were tried and the campus physi-
clan was summoned, but the efforts
were Of no avail.
Fountain was very popular man in
the university and very bright in his
studies. He registered from Banning
where his body will be. sent. Only two
weeks ago the boys father was on the
campus to see how his son was getting
along. Fountain was member of the
Encina Club and of the Nestoria Lit
erary Society

roo MANY FLOWERS.
Priest Gives Some Plain Talk a,
 Funeral Directory Meeting.

New Haven, Sept 12.-The Connecti- cut Funeral Directors association met here to-day for the seventeenth annual session. The chief feature of the meeting was an address by Rev John D. Coyle of this city on the relations between the funeral directors, the fam fly and the clergy. He deprecated the lavish expenditures for funerals by poor people and urged the funeral di- rectors not to suggest unnecessary out lay. Tn this present day." he said, ''the dead mans popularity and esteem are measured by the length of the fu- neral cortege and the lavish display of floral offerings. What more senseIess than the foolish waste of natures blooms, to be borne from the house to the chancel and from the chancel to the grave. in bedraggled and wilted condition" Referring to a case where display of S1O0 of flowers had been made, he stated that the relatives of the deceased did not possess money enough to pay for the carriage hire to the grave. Such extrayagance, if not sinful, Is certainly thoughtless and senseless.-

THEY FEAR TROUBLE.

Seattle, Wash, Sept 12.-That Baron Komura, the Japanese peace plenipo, tentiary, and his party may be met with hostile demonstration on his ar riva. in Japan, is the opinion expressed last night by the Rev H. Kozaki q prominent Japanese minister. who ar rived here yesterday to attend the meeting of the American board of mis sionaries.
 The Rev Kozaki says, however, that If the class of people who are responsi- ble for the present uprising learn the true conditions of the peace settlement before the arrival of Baron Komura that he may not De molested.
 The Rev Kozaki also states that 1t is the intention of his government to take up the work of enlightening the Chinese immediately and that there are at present some 5000 students from the best Chinese families attending ed ,;cational institutions in Japan, some of them being young women. The min ister states that unless the Japanese receive the indemnity agreed upon as reimbursement for the expenses of talk ing care of Russian prisoners that economic depression may result for year or so. If this money is received within short time, however, this dan ger will be averted.
