LITTLE LADDIE LOST
FOR THREE HOURS.
Family Of Past Assistant Sur
geon Carroll r. Baker, U. S.
Navy. Given Fright By
Loss OF Son.

Loss OF Son.
Little Carroll Baker. the three and
half year old twin son of Past Assist
ant Surgeon Carroll r. Baker, U. 5. n,
and Mrs. Baker, strayed away from
his home, at No. 5, the Naval Hos
pital Saturday afternoon at o'clock,
and for four hours a careful search in
stituted by hospital apprentices,
nurses and others failed TO find the
little chap.
Carroll, who is the twin brother OF
Howard, never was away from his lit
tie brother so long before. In fact,
the twins are inseparable, but on this
occasion Carroll declined TO go with
the nurse and little Howard, TO the
ten cent store in search of some
Easter rabbits, staying at home with
his mama.
Mrs. Baker permitted the little fell
low to play out front, and left him for
a few minutes TO go indoors. When
she returned Mrs. Baker was distress
ed to find no trace of the child
After a careful search of the hospltal
grounds. she sent others in search OF
the child, and the search was kept up
until 7.30 Saturday evening before
Carroll was returned to the arms or
his distracted mother.s
The child had attempted TO find the
| ten cent store where his twin brother
had gone for Easter rabbits, and
! seemed to be on the trail, so far as
Annapolis was concerned. He came
| all the way from the Naval Hospital
| into the city. and when found was in
| the act of crossing Spa Creek bridge
| TO Eastport. He was picked up by a
nurse at the hospital who recognized
J the little fellow, and calling a taXicab
| took the tired child to his home, where
! there was great rejoicing
AS darkness had overtaken those in
i search of the little fellow who left
home at $50, the mother had despair
b ed of finding him. Realizing there
are many bodies of water about An
| napolis. she feared her baby had been
| drowned.
I 1t is safe to say Carroll will not
| have a similar experience very soon
| again, said Mrs. Baker this morning
| when referring to the experience OF
/ her lost SON

Arctic Rock VI eea.

Drifting down from Alaska comes
the greatest of all sea plants. the arctic
rock weed. that grows in shape like
huge ships hawser and sometimes with
branches 800 feet long. There are no
signs of leaves. but at intervals of a
fathom or SO a knob, for all the world
like the buoy on drift net grows
around the stem, aiding, as t1es the
buoy, in keeping the plant alloat and.
creating the impression that some fish
ing nets have gone astray.--New York

A Surprise and
 an Appreciation

"Wednesday afternoon a very great surprise came to us while we were un- packing our goods in our new home on the corner of School and Speedway. An automobile rushed up to the front and the good ladies of the Missionary Society began to unload all kinds of good things to eat, Space will not permit the mention of these so many anu numerous things
 Our hearts were made glad as these tokens of appreciation and welcome were placed on the table by the hands of these noble women. Our good ladies never let an opportunity slip for mak- ing some heart glad and happy We express our deepest gratitude for the welcome thus accorded Us by the mem bers of our church and by the citizens of Dermott We hope to become use ful as well as ornamental.
 We are here to be servants of all and want to feel like We are part and parcel of this town and your joys shall be ours. and your sorrows shall be ours.
 Whenever and wherever We can rem der a service to someone please call on us whether you are a member of our congregation or not.

Next Lyceum Number
 January 18th

Word has been received from the Dixie Lyceum Bureau that the Hettie Jane Dunnaway Co.,. which is the third number of our lyceum course, will be here on Tuesday Jan. 18th. This num- Der promises to be one of the most pleasing of the entire course. Miss Dunnaway has appeared here a number of times and always delights her audi ence. Instead of appearing in single role as on previous occasions. she is this year starring in the Red Ram bier. drama in four acts which was written especially for her and Mir Sewell. The production met with re- markable success in New York last summer. and during a three months run there. was witnessed by many ly- ceum and chautauqua managers. with the result that all the eompany's time for this year and next was sold early last fall.
 The play is said to be a romance of rare power. full of unique and humor- ous situations. and is greatly enhanced by the carefully chosen costumes and especially selected music.
 Tickets for this number will be sold for 75c for adults and 35c for children.

all absorbing question. Their success depends largely upon the question of securing desirable labor. A plantation without labor is burden that no one cares to assume.
 Our best planters desire a good class of labor. They are not satisfied with the lazy. indolent, and unreliable la borer. They want labor that will give value received Working tenants are in demand everywhere.
 Some of our planters wonder why la Dor is such a difficult proposition. and believe they will agree with me when they get to thinking of the causes The negro is our cotton man. We look to him to produce our money crop. The better class of negroes are desir- ing more than the bare necessities of life, They are deeply interested in the welfare of their children. and the welfare of their families Is the cause of their industrious disposition
 One of our biggest and most success ful plantations is planning to do two things which the managers believe will retain their labor, which is as good as can be found in the South They are planning to build q good school and al so a good church building. They may not be doing this so much because they want to do ''uplift work" for the ne gro, but they are calculating the divi- dends which the plantation will pay as q result.

IRISH CHAPLAIN KILLED
MlNiSTERlNG TO WOUNDED

The unflinching courage displayed
by the Catholic chaplains on the bat
tle-aelds of France has brought forth
praise from every quarter. That the
priest is ever willing and ready to
face any danger, sacrificing his life in
order to give the last rites of the
Church to the dying is shown in the
heroic death Of the Rev. John Melon
nell, c. NJ, c. F., of Cork City, Ireland.
Father Mcdonnell was killed by shell
that burst while he was giving En-
IRENE JUNCTION to dying soldier.
His family received the following
details of his death in letter from
Lieutenant Clarke: when the enemy
bombardment started all the occupants
OF the village took refuge in the eel
lars. Your brother seemed to think
this was an unsoldierly thing to do
and attended his duties in the open
with the greatest courage. He was
killed by splinter of a shell which
struck him in the neck underneath the
chin and he died instantly. Captain
Father Gleeson attended to his burial"
