a mystery, and as there were no eye
witnesses, the real truth may never
be known. Judge L. D. McGee went
out and viewed the bodies, but as
there were no witnesses, he had no
possible way of bringing out sufficient
facts upon which to base a coroner's
verdict. There was not the slightest
evidence of foul play and no theory
along this line is entertained. There
are many who believe, and the officers
are inclined to accept this theory, that
when the woman reached the tank she
found the three children drowning, or
they were already drowned and she
frantically rushed in to save them, for
getting the babe in her arms, and in
the struggle all were drowned.
There are others who do not accept
this theory, as the water was only
four or five feet deep where the bodies
were found and they do not think the
woman could have drowned by acci-
dent in this depth of water. Neither
do they believe she would have car
ried her baby into the water If she
had rushed in to save the others. They
are inclined to the opinion that the
woman was demented and drowned
herself and children.
! The funeral OF all five was held to-
day from st. Anthony's Catholic
church, with interment in the Catholic
cemetery. Father DeSimone conduct
ed the funeral services.

Mrs. Frank Petranello and four
children, whose ages range from six
years to six months, were drowned
late yesterday afternoon in tank
near their home three miles west Of
Bryan on the Manganic Wells road.
Frank Petranello and three sons
were in the fields, leaving Mrs. Pet
ranello and five children at the house.
Some time after o'clock she missed
three OF the children and her eight
year-old daughter said she thought
they had gone down towards the tank,
which is only few hundred feet from
the house. Taking her six-months-old
baby in her arms and leaving the old
est child at the house, she started
down toward the tank to look for the
children.
About an hour later when the boys
came home from the field, she had not
returned. The little girl at the house
told them she had gone to the tank,
and search was begun at once. Not
finding them anywhere about the
place, parties went into the tank, fear
ing that an accident had befallen
them. They had not searched long in
the water until the bodies were found
and they were all removed

Black HAWKS Return.

On Black Hawks return great dena
onstrations, 1t is said, were made over
him, far beyond his deserts, perhaps
yet he was a great Indian OF his kind,
real Indian possessing all the attrib-
sutes of that class OF Indians who are
never absolutely good until they are
dead. There was big dinner given
him at Samuel Bartlett's at st. Fran,
cisville, at which Black Hawk and
Chief Keokuk and their families werc
present and here they made friends
as the Japs and President Wilson are
now conciliating. Mrs Louise Briggs
and Mrs. Harriet Conway OF the vicin-
Iity acted as presiding queens in the 4
kitchen to prepare the sumptuous
meal for the occasion. And here
comes in something Of real local in.
Iterest as Mrs. Conway was the grand
mother Of Mrs. Gray, wife OF Dr. H.

and the mother OF the wife Of the late
Charles Grammar, at one time editor

which was very popular and influen-

/ master at Alexandria about the same
] period. He was well known in Keo-
, kuk. He disposed of his paper and
continued his service as postmaster.
He died number of years ago.
At the meeting referred to the In
dams made great rejoicings. Keo-
kuk's old wife was there and assisted
Mis-. Briggs and Mrs. ConwaJ, the chief
cooks to take a large door off its
/ wooden hinges for a table.
Keokuk was admirably attired In .
calico shirt and other clothes, pre-
sumably; silver rings and brass med
ais, carrying the inevitable Henry
{ Clay silverheaded cane, with his
I young squaw wife, for whom he hao
discarded the old wife, his last wife
being about thirty years of age. The
chiefs and their two sons were seated
in the place of honor at each end of
the table, and at the conclusion of
the feast thanked Mr. Bartlett and
