reached a total of approximately
$4,000 according to reports made

Says Gas Killed Baby-Ten thou
sand dollars is the price put on the
value of a baby in one of the most
remarkable damage suits that has
been filed in the district court OF
Scott county. The action is brought
by Mary Effie Fetterer against the
Peoples Light company, which is
held directly responsible for the
death of the infant. The suit, ac-
cording to the petition drawn DIP
by J. A. HanIey, the family's at
torney, hinges on the fact that the
company failed to connect up a
gas range on which the mother de-
pended to heat up material for the
baby when it was i'll. The alleged
negligence of the company is held
to be responsible for the death Of
the child.

When women are forced to eai u

1T is difficult to bring about a
