If you ever expect to own a
home in Baxter Springs now is
the time to get it. Property
values are going to advance as
soon as the electric road is built.
You should get hold of a home

those nice new homes in the

one on very moderate terms.
The reunion of 1906 will be a
record-breaker in great many
ways. The indications this early
point to largely increased at
tendance. More than seven hum
dred more applications have been
received already for tents than
ever before, and the outlook now
is that more people are going to
spend the week in camp than ever
before. People are coming more
and more to look upon a visit to
the Big Baxter Reunion as sort
of summer outing. People who
do not feel like going to the
mountains for an outing are
coming to the big reunion be-
cause the pleasures of camping
out can be found here as well as
elsewhere, and besides the cost IS
not nearly so great. Again, peo-
pie are finding out that the only
real way to get the most enjoy
ment out of the reunion is to
camp out, and stay and see the
whole thing through" This year
all of the attractions are OF a
high class, and every show on
the ground will be of a nature
which is bound to please the most
fastidious. Only high class at
fractions have been contracted
for. The day of hoochee koochee
shows is past, and the manage
ment wants none of those sort
any more, and what is more will
not have them. The tastes of
the people have changed greatly
during the past few years; now
they want the best, and the best
is what they will find at the Bax-
ter reunion this year. The shoot
the chutes has been remodeled,
there will be the scenic railway,
four electric launches, 100 row
boats, excellent music, both vocal
and instrumental, oratory until
you can't rest, and drum corps
and martial music galore. The
week will be a banner one in the
history of the big reunions unless
the weather interferes, and that
is not likely as past experience
has proven the week winding up
August and beginning September
is the best week of the year for
outdoor gatherings.

GIRL CRUSHED
TO DEATH BY A
RUNAWAY HORSE

Evaline Sullivan. aged years, daugh-
ter OF Mr.. and Mrs. John Sullivan, died
at the Twin City hospital In Pawtucket
late yesterday afternoon as the result Of
accident which befell her on Main street
at the foot Of Park place a half hour be-
fore.
The little one, with her mother, were In
the crowded section Of the business dis
trlct when the woman heard shouts of
warning and looking towards Park place
she saw coming towards her horse with
parts of harness hanging from II. Her
first instinct was to protect the child, and
she attempted 10 get 70 place OF safety.
but the animal swerved in his course and
came directly for her. and the horrified
spectators OF the tragedy saw the col
lsion which came an instant afterwards
Both the mother and child were knocked
down and the horse also fell, it's heavy
body dropping directly on top OF the little
one.
II rested there but a minute, and then
before anyone could give assistance II
was up and away again, plunging down
through the crowded Main street
Willing hands went to the assistance
OF the child and its mother, but IL was
at once seen that the former was pretty
badly hurt Patrolman Phil Dwyer was
quickly on the scene and took the injured
one TO the Twin City hospital I'm his arms
There a hurried examination showed that
the body was badly crushed and that
there were internal injuries which must
necessarily prove fatal and In spite of
every effort the breath passed out Of the
little body within a half hour after II
had been taken to the institution.
The injuries TO the mother consisted OF
a number OF bruises and broken nose,
but were not OF a serious character.
The accident occasioned a great deal OF
excitement on the street and a big crowd
OF people congregated about where II oc-
CURED.
The horse belonged 10 William Matteson
OF Central Falls and had been attached to
an express wagon which was being used
by the Pawtucket Steam and Gas Pipe
company. II had started on Mulberry
street and at that point II had freed IT
self from the wagon and dashed away
down towards Main street and thence 10
the upper end of Park place and through
that 10 Main street again at the foot OF
the hill
After the accident IL continued on and
was later stopped on North Main street,
without doing any more damage.

massive ionic columns rising to a height
