LITTLE CHANCE Of
MEN BEING SAFE

Port Arthur, Ont, May 21-Although
forty men and several boats were en-
gagged searching Lake Helen near
Nipigon the bodies of the six men be-
lieved to have been drowned there on
Wednesday evening have not been
found. 1t is pretty we'll established
however, that the drowning took place
as the six men are known to have
left camp Alexander for the twelve
mile canoe trip. Had they been on
shore they would have reached town
sooner than this and the finding of
the canoe upturned and the sweaters
tells the silent story Of their fate. No
names are available yet of the miss
ing in addition to Grant and McGilli-
vray, the fire rangers. They were
men going out from the construction
camps several miles north and people

of the canoe with the six men in it
know none of their names. Several
Port Arthur people went to Ninigon
this morning to assist in the search
and ratnrned on the midniRht train.

Long Beach. CAL. May 21.-Three
little chicks belonging to w. B. Nc
Cracken yesterday pecked their way
into this big world after having had
an unusual experience. For thirteen
days the mother hen had been busily
attending to her setting duties when
hungry snake drove her from her
nest and gorged itself with three eggs.
The reptile fingered about the prem

dering at its odd proportions, he per-
formed an operation and found the
eggs. They were placed back under
the hen and at the end of the regula-
tion time hatched.

perience Of the representatives of the
government having to deal with these
problems which to the users of water
are vital. 1t is the belief of Nevada's
senior senator that a great mistake
has been made in the endeavor to de-
velop isolated waterways. That ex-
perience has shown that such work is
Improbable and that the greater part
OF the money thus spent is wasted.
That a watershed should be consid-
cred as a unit and should be devel-
oped with view to its material re-
quirements and the traffic needs Of
the territory through which it passes
entirely regardless of the particular
water course itself.
In discussing generally the needs Of
such a board Senator Newlands said:
II do not apprehend that there will be
great difference Of opinion that the re-
lated questions of forestry, of the re-
clamation Of arid lands, of the drain
age of swamp lands, of the develop
ment OF water power and the clarifi-
cation of streams all have a relation
to the development of waterways for
the purposes of navigation. The de-
velopment Of waterway for naviga-
tion may be entirely impracticable be-
cause of its cost but II we can nsunite
the development of that waterway the
reclamation of the arid lands above,
the drainage of swamp lands below,
and the intermediate development of
valuable water power we then add to
the natural resources of the country
and create values which in themselves
Will be compensatory of the entire
work, whereas, the work would not be
IN any measure self-compensatory, IL
confined to navigation alone.
Then again the question of trans.
portation plays most important part
in the development of the waterway.
The decline of waterway transporta-
tion, In my judgment, has been due
TO the fact that the railways have, by
unfair competition, sought to destroy
water transportation. Now it seems
to me to be the part of wisdom to
oring together the waterway people,
and l mean by that the experts. and
the railway experts to the end that
water and rail shall act in co-opera-
ton and that each shall be the friend
and ally instead of the enemy of the
other. The railroad managers have
declared that it is essential, in ord er
to meet the transportation require
ments of the country, in the near fu-
ture, that at least $1,000, 0,000, 900 shall
be expended upon our railways. That
ts'oOO,o00,O00 is a charge upon the
natural resources Of the country. The
interest upon it amounting to at least
$2OO,000,000 annually will be paid by
the shippers Of the country and it
does seem to ME the part of good
business sense that the expenditure
OF a billion dollars in waterway trans
portation at the rate of $1,000 900
a year during the next ten years will
save more than half of the necessary
expenditure Of $5.OO0,000,0O0 Now
my idea is to assemble under one gen.
eral board the scientific servants of
the government, the best engineers.
constructors and transportation ex-
pers OF the country to properly create
comprehensive plans for the develop
ment of our waterways, otherwise 1
fear that shipwreck will be the fate of

cate. He said late last night he would
probably issue q certificate of death
by suicide this morning. The body
has been turned over to an UNDER
taker.
The police say they are satisfied the
girl committed suicide, but they have
not assigned reason for her act.
She was Of CHEEKY disposition. Her
home life was happy, and for two
months she had been engaged to q
young musician, who resides in the
neighborhood. He has given no rea-
son as to why she should take her
life.
Shortly after IL o'clock yesterday
afternoon Miss Bailey went to her
home from the congressional apart
ment house for luncheon. There was
no one at home at that time Of the
day, and the girl has usually prepar-
ed her own luncheon. Shortly after
1 o'clock Mrs. Edna Aldrich( 245
Fourteenth street southeast, saw Miss
Bailey and spoke TO her. She chat
ted with Mrs. AldEich for a few min
utes. Later, she went into the house,
and that was the last time she was
seen alive.
Mother Makes Discovery.
Mrs. Bailey. who is widow, re-
turned home little before s o'clock.
Detecting the odor Of gas, she went
to the bathroom door and attempted
to open 1t, but found 1t was locked
from the inside. She went into her
daughters room. Just then letter
carrier. negro, rang the bell, and
Mrs. Bailey admitted him. He went
to the bathroom door and broke it
open. ~
The bathtub, In which the girl sat
fully clothed, was filled with water.
Her back was to the spigots, and her
head rested on the side of the tub.
The letter-carrier shook the girl, and
then ran into the street and called
Policeman Jett. Policeman Jett call
ed the ambulance from Casualty hos
pital and DR.. William T. Wood re-
sponded. The ambulance surgeon
pronounced the girl dead.
Mrs. Bailey was excited, and in
sisted that Deputy Coroner. Glaze
brook. the family physician, be call
ed. Before DR.. Glazebrook arrived at
the house the body had been taken to
the young woman's room, on the Sec
ond floor.
When Coroner hewitt arrived he
was surprised to learn the body had
been removed, from the bathtub. This
does not comply With the Law, and
DR.. Nevitt wan Somewhat nettIed.
After questioning the family, he de-
cided to withhold his decision until
this morning. -
Tuesday night, the police say, the
girl was scolded by her mother for
remaining away from home until mid
night. She explained to Mrs. Bailey
that she, had been to a movinE-pic-
ture show, where her sweetheart is
employed, and that she waited until
he was OF duty. The young man ac-
companied her home.
The mother told the coroner her
daughter had been subject to faint
ing spells. Shortly before she left
her place Of employment yesterday
the young woman called her sweet
heart up by phone, and made an en-
gagement to meet him at her home
at $3.50 o'clock.
