IRONY Of FATE
IN BAKER CASE

Walking to her work early this
morning, Miss Lorena Heishman,
deputy clerk at the Arlington
courthouse, was stopped by an
elderly, white-laired man, who
said:
II am d stranger round here,
would you mind telling me
where the courthouse II"
Miss HeishInan replied:
Certainly, / am going there
myself"
They had walked a few yards
down the road when Judge Bryan
Gordon came along In his car
and gave them both q lift. The
girl got In the front with the
Judge, the stranger got In the
back. AS they I1eared the court
house, Judge Gordon broke the
silence:
Wasn't that ghastly thing
the murder of that Baker
girI!"
It was the Rev. Thomas F.
Baker, father Of the slain girl.
The Washington times., 1930-04-14

As Investigators were gath
ering together the slim bits Of
evidence and gradually work
ing out 4 comprehensive pic
ture Of the identity Of the man
who assaulted and then killed
Miss Baker, a new angle de-
veloped which sent detectives
to Baltimore to interview q
man said to have been .
former suitor.
According to statements Dy
Arlington county authorities,
this man appeared in the
vicinity Of the home Of the
girl last night and, after ask
ing directions to the house, in
the 200 block Beech st., Lyon
Park, sped from the neighbor-
hood without visiting it.
The man, according to investi-
gators, was stockily built, Of pow
erful frame and wore no hat. He
was visibly nervous and agitated
When reaching the street on
which the slain girl lived he sped
away In q powerful car, instead
Of going to the house.
It was on information supplied
police by several witnesses that
the trail led to the Maryland
city.
AS this new angle of the brutal
Staying developed, another bit Of
evidence, which links up several
other phases Of the investigation,
came through an interview with
Mrs. Bette l.. Collins, OF Fort
Myer Heights. Va.
Mrs. Collins, an elderly,
motherly woman, said that Friday
night, sometime about $3.50. she
was awakened from her sleep by
the sound Of quarreling in the
street in front of her house. She
said:
"The, noise was 50 loud and
the cursing 50 terrible that I
went to the front window. i
saw q car parked In front Of my
house. A man, who must have
been q brute, was swearing ter
ribly when the side door Of the
car suddenly opened and . girl

Editorial Comment
The Walls of Jericho
New York TirneS)

(NcW YORK llmeS) 3
After the walls of Jericho had been RACED, as the Book
OF Joshua records the event, it is stated that Joshua laid
a curse on any man that "riseth up and buildeth this
city Of Jericho" With the loss of his first born shall
he lay the foundation thereof and with the loss of his
and again the walls have risen. In the days of Ahab,
Hiel the Bethelte rebuilt them and suffered in con-
sequence. It was from these walls that the sons of the
prophets went out in search of Elijah, who had disap-
peared as in q chariot Of fire. Here Herod the Great,
who rebuilt q number of cities and temples in Palestine
himself, died. where ruins bright with the red SO dear
to Roman eyes" remember his fate. At it's gate blind
Bartimaeus sat begging, and here Zaccheus, the chief
publican of Jericho. who had climbed q sycamore tree
Ibis Master for to see" entertained Him in his own house.
And here the Good Samaritan set for all time an example
OF mercy to strangers in need.
The unearthing Of the foundation stones of the oldest
walls brings the long past nearer our doors, as does the
report which comes on the same day concerning the ante
diluvian life In Ur Of the Chaldees. The Chicago super
intendent OF schools has been saying to his brother super
intendents- and the teachers in Atlantic City, in their
philosophy OF education, "be your age"-a slang express
sion" In which he urged concentrating attention on the
age In which we live instead Of following "slavishly the
prescription of the dead hand Of antiquity" But antiq-
uitys hand Is q living hand and writes its warnings upon
the walls Of ruined cities. Many a city crouches in
times corner unrenowned because, though famed for a
day Tor its commerce Gas Jericho, the pantry" of Pales-
tine, was). 1t was found wanting in its permanent con-
tribution to mans well-being.
The archaeologists finds are news and have a rightful
place along with yesterdays events. For us Giving at
prime" all wages should be our age. even the "aeons of
mans ordeal" in which personalities sep
arately endured" The walls Of Jericho rise again With
Their counsel to the cities Of today.

Today Is the
Anniversary of
SHERIDAN'S BIRTH

On March 6, 1881, Philip Sheridan,
famous American soldier, was born at
Albany, New York.
In 1862, nine years after he grad
uated from West Point, Sheridan was
appointed colonel of the Second
Michigan Cavalry. At the outbreak
Of the Civil War, he gained early rec
ignition for his courage and daring.
Recognized by Grant as q stubborn
fighter, Sheridan was appointed COM
mander of the army at Shenandoah.
While he won praise in this command
for his brilliant defeat Of General
Early and the capture of 5000 of his
men and several guns, Sheridan was
widely censured for his ruthless de-
struction of Shenandoah valley.
After the war, Sheridan visited
