Hollaudsie Review
The shocking news that f. W. Baker,
Of Blanchardville had met death by
drowning in the reservoir that supplies
water to his barn, reached here about
II O'Clock Wednesday night.
Justice Severson went down there
Thursday morning and held an inquest
at which the following facts incident to
the death developed.
Mr.. Baker was last seen alive by his
hired man about 5 O'Clock Wednesday
morning as the latter was leaving for
town; Mr. Baker did not appear at the
noon hour and when he failed to show
up at supper time, the family became
alarmed and a search began, with the
result that he was found in the reser-
voir about 9 o'clock. The opening is
about 2E3 feet so it is thought he must
have been peering into it and fell in
head first There was over six feet of
water in the reservoir, but the opening
was too far from the surface to reach it,
A rod in the tank used to open the
outlet was badly bent and was elasped
under one arm, indicating he had clung
to i 60 keep has head above the water
until he became exhausted.
a verdict Of accidental death by
drowning was returned

most seems as If with one impulse all
the educated classes of China were en-
urely determined to turn face about
from the past to the present and the
future. All the motives that induce
10 motion are stirring in the Chinese
nlnd--desire for wealth, craving for
power. sense of shame and an aspi-
ration To be held in esteem among the
peoples of the world. love of learning
and the longing for a better life
these, together with hatred of supposed
enemies. are pressing the people for
ward into the new world. 1t is the
crisis now. If the people who care for
the world Of man. do their duty at this
time. they can make the leaders of the
Empire; they can exercise a guiding
power in the coming decades of Chi
nese history
Now, is certainly a most trying time
for China. She needs her ablest minds
to to solve the many difficult problems
before her. There are many dangers
from without. and within. China needs
leaders, skilful and strong, and men
with a deep and strong devotion for
their own country. There is a won
derful future before her, If she can
only enter into it.
May China find wise men to guide
and direct the Empire to a place of
strength and honor. among the great
nations of the world.
