comfortable rocking chair at his cosy
home, 1888 Russell street, yesterday
morning when visitor was announced.
The gentleman arose and greeted the
new conner with the grace Of diplomat
and as he opened up a conversation 1t
was evident that Mr.. Hagen was
man Of more than ordinary intelligence.
To bis visitor the remarkable changes
and peculiar career Of this man was a
source OF much interest. A wonderful
transformation in his appearance in
the past two years is itself worthy of
the study Of a scientist. Mr.. Hagen a
couple OF years ago was so weak and
emaciated that today he does not seem
the same individual.
Rheumatism wasl the cause of his
terrible sufferings.
He is Detroiter by birth, having
first seen the light Of day In this city
80 years ago. When quite boy he
was apprenticed to the molder's trade,
and ever since lie has followed this
avocation. He is a quite prominent
member Of the local Stovemolder's
Union, and can be found nearly every
Saturday night in attendance at the
meeting of the order. About two
years ago Mr.. Hagen became seriously
affected with rheumatism, the result Of
working In draughts of cold air.
