has rescinded its action and re-engaged
him.
This was done at a meeting when an

because of the peculiar nature Of the
charges brought against Mr.. Baker,
she did not attend the meeting in per-
son, but delegated a man to represent
he-.
Mr.. Baker succeeded in clearing him
self of the charges that were brought
against him. It developed that, in his
eagerness to disprOve the statement
that he Is p woman, he had stepped
/ beyond the bounds of propriety IN some
! instances, but that he had not been
guilty of immortality. the county sup
! erfntendent's representative Iectured
| him at length because he had not taken
more digni1ed fashion Of disproving
/ the rumors.
Mr. Baker assured the members Of
the board that he would promptly set
at rest these rumors by having the

/ lished in the newspapers which have
published the stories about him. School
