ABOUT1 HE STATE •xty*'* iV-*p.«-W, News of Especial Interest to MOTHERAND DAU6HTER DROWN Perish In North Lake at Lindstrom While Attempting to Save Woman. Guest and Her Young Son. Mrs. John Crosby and her daughter Pearl, nineteen years old, lost their lives in North lake, a branch of Lake Chisago, in an attempt to save Mrs. Chris Miesen of St. Paul and her son John, nine years old. Mrs. Miesen and young son were rescued by John Guen ther, a St. Paul man, who was fish ing nearby. The Miesen boy was the innocent cause of the double tragedy. Accom panied by his mother, Mrs. Crosby and daughter, he went to the southern shore of North lake to bathe. A sandy beach lines the shore for a consid erable distance, but not far from the water's edge there is a drop treacher ous to one not a swimmer. The lad found a raft and, jumping on it, was soon carried far out. He leaped merrily from one side of the improvised boat to the other, finally losing his balance. Tumbling into the water he screamed and the women heard. Without reasoning that she was unable to swim Mrs. Miesen ran toward where her son was splashing in the lake and, upon reaching the place where the depth of the water becomes greater, she, too, soon was endeavoring to save herself from drowning. The screams of the woman and son urged Mrs. and Pearl Crosby to action. Though unable to swim they rushed through the water to assist them. About the same place where Mrs. Miesen sank they, too, went down. John Guenther of St. Paul, who spends his summers in Lindstrom, was fishing on North lake and a short distance from where the quartet were battling with death. He hurriedly rowed toward the Miesen boy and pulled him into the boat. Then he rowed toward where Mrs. Miesen was endeavoring to keep herself from sinking and saved her. By this time Mrs. Crosby and her daughter had gone down for the last time. FATAL COLLISION OF TRAINS Brakeman Killed and Wife of Conduc tor Badly Hurt.

Mystery Surrounds Death ol Railroad President. Chicago, July 21.—Ira G. Rawn, president of the Chicago, Indianapolis and Louisville railroad (the Monoi. Route), died of a bullet wound at hi summer residence in Wmnetka, fitteeu miles north of Chicago. Members of Mr. Rawn's family say he was killed by a burglar. The police are working on a theor\ that Mr. Rawn killed himself. As a basis for their suicide theory the police advance the following rea sons: They point to the fact that Mr Rawn was operating vice president of the Illinois Central railroad at the time fraudulent car repair contract* were put through, and that recently he has been drawn into the Illinois Central graft investigation as a chief witness They say that the action of Mr Rawn's relatives in refusing the aid of the Chicago detective department to search for the alleged murderer is suspicious They declare that there exists a lack of convincing evidence that an intruder had actually been in the Rawn residence. Friends and business associates of the dead man say that he had been looking badly for several weeks. Some attributed Mr. Rawn's worried ex pression to the investigation of the conspiracy by which the Illinois Cen tral railroad alleges it was mulcted out of hundreds of thousands of dol lars. This is now going on in court The ultimate outcome of this investi gation, it is said, would have involved Mr. Rawn, at least indirectly.
