it was refused in each instance, the

TWINS BORN IN BIG FLOOD
Stork Visits Woman While Waters
Roar on All Sides.

Mrs. L. L. Stiner, whose home was
west of the river and a few miles
south of Tacoma, died yesterday after
giving birth to twins, one of which
survives.
The flood came up around the Stiner
home Tuesday. Mr.. Vergowe, who
lives near, saw the danger and know
ing the condition of Mrs Stiner, took
a boat in after her. He and Mr.. Stiner
helped the woman to the Gay house.
Later she was taken in another boat
to the home of M. Consent, where she
died yesterday.
Mrs. Stiner was weak before the
excitement Of the flood but it is
thought that the fright and the exer-
ton of the boat trip may have helped
bring about the end.
The body was brought to Tacoma
this morning.
Friends of the family ask any one
having baby clothes they can spare to
leave them at the News office. There
was no clothing ready for the little
one, or, If there was. it is in the sub
merged home. The neighbors are
making some wraps for the baby to-
day, but any clothing left at the News
OfAco fornorrox, will ho co11od for and
will be much appreciated.
