was decided that she had a tumor and
that an operation would be necessary
to save her life. She went to Bos-

on by one of the best surgeons con

After she returned to her home
however, her condition became worse
instead of better. and in a short time
she was removed TO the Lynn hospi-

Chicoine performed four operations
on the girl in hopes of getting at the
cause of her trouble. The first three
seemed TO do no good, and the doctors
decided that they had not gone deep
enough. During the fourth they made
a very exhaustive examination, prob

coyery of the surgeons sponge sewed
up at the bottom of the original incl

When the doctors found this their
astonishment knew no bounds. and at

work was when she raised $4,000
worth of copper from the ship OF w.
II. Stevens, which sank in so feet of
water in Lake Erie several years
ago.
Miss Bakers father, Capt. w. H..
Baker, was a captain of divers. and
from the first time she was allowed
to go down to the river alone, she
used to watch her fathers wrecking
ship leave the dock and long to go
with him. The ambition to become a
diver matured in her as she grew
older, and she deplored the fate which
had condemned her to be a girl.
At last her desire to become a
diver overcame the objections of her
friends and she began making wreck
ing trips with her father, and soon
became his inseparable companion.
She made a study of every part OF
the machinery connected in any way
with diving, and in time learned to
command the wrecking boat with
great skill and assurance.
Her first descent was in Lake HUI
ron, where a big wooden barge had
gone down, and before the wrecking
steamer had reached the spot where
the barge had sunk, the owner spoke
to Miss Baker, regretung the loss of
a diamond ring which was in the
cabin.
In describing the sensations of the
initial trip she said that the feel
ing at the outset was as If some
great creature with a thousand arms
was pressing her gently but firmly
on all sides, and as If in a few min
utes her breath would be cut off en-

feeling of buoyancy, and the 20
pounds OF lead attached to her feet
seemed no heavier than leather soles

the walls of the sunken ship and with
his aid climbed over them.
At this point she experienced SC.
