GIRLS CAMP is FATAL
Mysterious Illness Attacks Members
of Party Near Fort
Dodge.

FORT DODGE, Ia, Aug. 25.-(Special.)-
Enid Gill Anderson. a 16-year-old girl, who
with four other girls went camping on a
farm near here, died this morning az the
result of two weeks illness with p~eritonitis.
Two other girls among the campers are
dangerously III, one with appendicitis and
the other with an illness not yet named.
II is thought the water from a spring
which they drank while camping must have
caused the illness.
Miss Anderson was too Ill to be moved
from the camp for a week and the other
girls are still at the camp, being cared for
there. Fear for their recovery is causing
great anxiety and the mystery of the ILL
ness ls also great cause for discussion here.

Frank Gotch, worlds champion wrestler
