MISS ANNA WILSON
ADJUDGED INSANE

A sSd, piteous c1se comes to lighi
in Baxter, that Of Miss Anna Wilson
until about two months ago employe,
by the Baxter Laundry. Miss Wilson
is between sixteen and seventeen
years old and is said by her formel
employers to be as nice girl as ona
could hope to meet, far above the av.
erage for one brought up under hel
environments. That she is strictly Q
pure girl is vouchsafed by those who
know her best. The girls father lives
somewhere in Arkansas, has married
his fourth wife and unfortunately ID
illiterate and ignorant, which traits
were developed by Miss Watson. See
ing no other alternative, she was
forced out into the world to make her
own living. and just what has hap
pened to cause her misfortune, not
even the physicians in the case know:
She has a half brother living in Bs*-
ter.
During the time that Miss Wilson
worked for the Baxter Laundry she
boarded with Mr.. and Mrs. E. n. Enos
who live at the corner Of Sixth and
Grant. Since leaving the. laundry,
Miss Wilson has wandered around
=
looking for work and for q time was
at thu? Frisco Restaurant.
The latter part Of the week her
case attracted the attention Of; her
friends which resulted Sunday in
her being taken charge Of by Drs.
MeCormiGk, Boswell and Wear. In q
thorough exalninakion by4these physi-
clans they found Miss Wilson TO be
free Of any immoral wrong but found
that she was suffering from an acute
deliriOusi mania, Of how long stand
ing, or from what cause, they we're
unable to determine. On thSSstTsAgth
Of this she was found 70 beoinsane by
the pObate judge and Oraefed 10 be
taken 10 q state ihstitution' where she
could be cared for properly. The ply
sicians in the case however, say that
she cannot live.

BOY SEll)ISNEbB I
ST0RTE sampson
Rev. John GarHetsOn rPFeaehes
Interesting Serm0n-Or.
gan Recital Musical
Treat

The Boy Scouts Of Baxter were told
the story Of Samson, the Bibles
strong mantle Sandow Of his age
by Rev. John GArretson at the Pres.
byterian church last night, speaking
on the subject Of "The Youth Who
Was An Athlete" There was a clpac-
ity crowd present to hear this first
talk in Baxter honorfng the Boy
Scouts who have been whipped into
such a strong organisation by Scout
master Walter Fisher. In telling the
story Of Samson, Rev. Garretson used
present-day Boy Scout terms and
phraseology to a great extent.
II was while on q scouting trip, the
speaker said, that Samson encounter
ed and slew the lion, and il was on q
later scout that he came across the
carcass, filed with wild bees honey,
and enjoyed feast. 1t was while on
q hike, too, that he was attacked BY
the enemy and killed so many Of them
with a "jaw bone Of q mule" - Gar
retson put it. The Scouts were told
Of the Halloween trick that Samson
played when he carried away the
gates of the city and hid them up in
the mountains.
Lessons from life Of the Biblical
strong man were drawn by the speak
er and applied to the youth of today
warning them to keep their minds and
bodies clean that they may become
clean men, leaders in the coming gen.
Grafton. He related the odenses that
Samson committed which led ulti-
mately to his ruin and death and told
the boys how to escape such weaken
ed, dishonorable life.
Also in honor Of the Scouts there
was q 15-minute pipe organ recital
preceded the regular service, with
Miss Lowden of Philadelphia at the
organ. This recital closed with the
Star Spangled Banner which brought
all the Scouts, and also the entire aud
ience, quickly to their feet.
On next Sunday evening, by re-
quest, Rev. GarretsOn will repeat the
address Of Sunday evening, March II,
on "The Community Church; Is II
Meeting the Needs of the Day."
The pipe organ recital by Miss
LOwden, of Philadelphia that preceded
the sermon, thrilled the congregation.
Miss Lowden is indeed a master Of
the instrument. She fairly dug down
into the very depth Of the tone cham
bers and brought out the chords SO
full and sweet that it filed the audi
tOrium with melody.

PEOPLE PAYING THE BILLS

With a loss to the government for
the past year of 64S millions Of dol
lars in the management of the rail-
roads of the country, the inference is
that the government will soon let
loose of the hottest poker it ever took
hold of-that is, it will let loose when
it can let loose. The government is
now borrowing from the banks to run
the railroads, because of lack Of ap-
preparations. and this will pile up the
interest. The trouble is the people
are footing the bills now, instead of a
private corporation.
