The children are faat frlenda and were playing together Friday after non,. , ; The little ones were playing beneath the Vllllger house, where a five-foot ex cavatlon has been filled with water from the recent floods. The little girl acci dentally fell Into the water. She ut tered a piercing scream as she fell, which, however, was not heard on the floor above and failed to alarm persons lit the house. But the lads, her playmates, rushed Quickly to her rescue.. With rare pres ence of mind, Chester, the elder boy, lay prone upon the bank and tried to reach the drowning girl. She sank be neath the water when ahe fell, but nresentlv ram The hoy seised her firmly as she rose and tried vainly to draa- her from her perilous position.

Bhe proceeded with her duties and told the child to run along and play. Realising that he could not make her understand, and also realising that his brother s strength must soon give way, he dashed out of the house In' search of Charley Tennfa, the hired man. Find ing him, he made him understand, and the man hurried Into the basement. There he found the other little boy tlU-.ho)dtag 4he- baby -above- the water, but his atrength was almost gone. The child waa lifted from the water and taken Into the house, where ber mother was almost overcome on learning the story. The baby girl, after her heroic rescue, was ' purple with cold and almost drowned. - However, she was revived and will recover, though ahe suffered Intensely from the shock. " The little boy heroes thought nothing of their deed, merely telling how It was done and proffering any aid In their power to help the little girl. Their bravery Is without precedent, so far as la known, and they are receiving the congratulations of the entire, com munity, and neighbors will take up the matter with the Carnegie hero-fund cus todians with a view to the children receiving medals.
