YOUNG MINISTER DROWNED.
Rev. Stephen Rogers Takes Cramps
While in Swimming Body
Brought to Mexico.

An accident occurred at Pertle
Springs, near Warrensburg, last
Wednesday afternoon, week, that
cast shadow over the more than
1000 delegates in attendance at
the state Baptist assembly. A
number of young ministers were
bathing in the lake when Rev. s..
E. Rogers, pastor of the DeKalb
and Nelson (Mo.) churches, tried
to swim across. He was seen by
his companions to struggle when
near the center of the lake, and
sank. His companions were not
expert swimmers, aud before the
alarm could be given aud boat
sent to his assistance the young
minister drowned.
The body was recovered and
shipped to Mexico and then taken
to Berea, north of here, for burial.
The young man was 26 years of
age and was the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. John R. Rogers, near Santa
Fe. He was Of very bright mind
and was a student for three years
in the Mexico high school. He
was a 1905 graduate of William
Jewell College.
Deceased was brother of Rev.
E. L. Rogers who was principal of
the public school at Farber, this
county. The untimely death was
great shock to the young mans
many friends A bright future
awaited him; a hopeful career has
been cut short. The MESSAGE ex-
tends sympathy to the bereaved
ones.

Awful Death of Mother and Child
Gasoline Explosion.

The Moberly Democrat contains
the following account:
A terrible disaster occurred at
Steinmetz, just over the line in
Howard county, yesterday even
ing.
Mrs. Guy Morgan, wife Of the
G. & A. agent at that place, was
in the chicken house cleaning up
the rubbish. She had her two
year old baby with her. She had
used gasoline in several places for
exterminating chicken lice and
other insects. ThOughtlessly she
struck match with the intent of
burning the pile Of straw and rub
bish she had swept up, when there
occurred an explosion and the
straw ignited and flared up into a
roaring blaze. The whole build
ing was on fire in less time than it
takes to tell it. The baby was
literally roasted alive, and died
within a short time. Mrs. Morgan
was so frightfully burned that she
died this morning at 10 O'Clock.
Mr.. Morgan was quite seriously
burned in trying to save his wife
and child, as was also Flespold, a
neighbOr, who went to the rescue.
The dead mother was "a years
old and had been married only
about two years.
The disaster is one of the most
terrible that has ever occurred in
the little town of Steinmetz and
the whole community is in mourn
ing.
