" -- IF IS MISTAKEN OTIO THAT (Illl.l SUFFOCATED IS WROG. pother Id Critical Condition rem Brooding Oier FIrt Tlifry. Death from some unknown ceus I3te yesterday afternoon ended the life of a two and a half months old son of Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Holmes, though it was erroneously announc ed that the child had suffocated while iilcsi oa JU" Vc3 in the Holmes reai rence. The babe was discovered dead by Miss Logan, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. V. Logan, who stole in the room to get a "peep" at the supposed ly sleeping youngster. The last spasms of death move1 a pillow which had been placed in the rear of the baby's bead to hold a fly screen, and from this incident was at first derived the belief that the child had suffoca ted. The funeral will be held tomor row at Union where Mr. and Mrs. Holmes lived before moving to La Grande, where he is now employed by the Eastern Oregon Light and Power company. The distracted mother is suffering terribly today. Physicians and friends cannot tear her mind from the mista ken idea that the child met death through possible negligence on the mother's part, and het condition is critical this afternoon. The baby was an exceptionally strong youngster and has been per fectly well up to the time of being placed In Its bed, during the afternoon and it is believed some internal dis order was to blame for its death. Its abnormal strength would have pre vented suffocation, as the pillow was but a child's affair, and not one oj the ordinary bed pillows. (II HU H XOTICKS UaptM Church.
