MRS. M. A. BAKER PASSES AWAY
Death Unexpected and News Came as
Great Shock TO Community

A telegram announcing the death Of
Mrs. NJ. A. Baker at Skyland, y. c.,
at a. m. yesterday came as great
shock to friends and relatives as they
had no intimation that she was seri-
ously ill., Accompanied by her daugh
ter, Mrs. Baker left here in perfect
health some three weeks ago for a
trip to the mountains, and it is
thought the sudden change to the
high altitude brought on the attack
which caused her death. Mrs. Baker
was an old and respected resident of
Brunswick, the widow of DR.. J. B. L.
Baker She leaves three children,
Leon Baker of Douglas and Lewis
and Miss pertha Raker Of this city

News reached here today of a san

government claims victory for its

bought six or seven hat boxes and
covered them with wall paper In q
rose design that harmonized with the
rose color of her room. These formed

also the club has, as one of its most
important considerations, the i'm
provement of civic conditions.
The club recently made a very
commendable beginning along civic
in provement in their clean up days
They have succeeded in arousing the
attention and interest of property
owners and of the City Council in
having a cleaner, prettier and more
healthful city, and We would sug-
gest that they now offer prizes for
the most neatly kept and attractive
yards. These prizes could be secured
by popular subscription, at very lit
tie expense to anyone, and the result
would be more flowers, more grass
and more trees and shrubs planted
There would also be fewer old papers,
cans and other rubbish lying around
ia yards and on pavements.

Beneath the common ground oil COM

One stormy morn CHANGED to meet
A lassie in the town;
Her locks were like the ripened
wheat.
Her laughing eyes were brown.
watched her as she tripped alona
Till madness filled my brain,
And then--and them know twas
wrong
| kissed her in the rain.
With raindrOps shining on her checn
Like dewdrops on rose,
The little lassie strove to speak.
My boldness to oppose;
She strove in vain. and quivering,
Her fingers stole in mine;
And then the birds began to sing,
The sun began to shine.
Oh, LET the clouds grow dark above
My heart is light below;
lis always summer when We love,
However winds may blow;
And I'm as proud as any prince.
All honors disdain;
She saws I am her rain beau since
! kissed her in the rain.
