His home was at Spiceland and his ' tep-father, K. K. Kirk and his mother, also live there. "With two neighbor boys he was camping at the dam, which is a popular place for outings, and in the evening rode his horse into

the stream, just below the apron of the dam. They got into a deep hole and in the horse's struggles it is possible the young man was struck by a hoof, or perhaps overcome by the cold water, which near the bottom is exceedingly cold. At one time all four of the horse's feet were out of the water at once. lie was in the water about ten minutes.

AUTOMOBILE

ACCIDENT

(Special to the Palladium.) Hagerstown, Ind., July 29. The

home of Frederick Paul, an aged cit

ridden for many years, was yesterday

the scene of an old-fashioned Dunkard foot washing. He ioined the Dunkard church

many years ago, and was baptized in the manner prescribed by the church. As he advanced in years he doubted the doctrine of the Dunkard church. He felt that his stand against his church '3 belief was little short of sinful, and felt impelled to confess his error to the porper authorities and request to be taken back into good standing. His plea was heard by the elders, and it was stated that Mr. Paul would again be received in good standing if he would be rebaptized and publicly confess his error. Accordingly, a large steel tank was hauled to the home of Mr. Paul and filled with water. Mr. Paul was carried out by the brethren, and the Rev. Lewis Teeter, an elder in the Dunkard church, per

Archibald, passed through here this morning enroute from Washington to St. Louis. The boys traveled accompanied only by their tutor, and so far had met with no accident or mishap. "We will stay in St. Louis two weeks," said Theodore, Jr., "and we don't intend to get into what Alice did. Our tutor is traveling with us, and he alone." The boys were dressed in nonde-
