DR.. Fralxer, an Insurance swindler, Found
at Last.
DULUTH, Sept. 3.-After hunt that has
lasted two years, in which the insurance
companies interested spent thousands of
dollars without avail to discover an alleged
dead man alive, and finally had to pay his
presumptive heirs the whole amount of his
life insurance, $4,000, the man has been
captured alive, and the companies have
been indicated in their assertion that tho
insurance was taken out for the purposes
Of fraud-and fraud that has apparently
been successful so far us it's benefciaries
are concerned.
The man insured is DR.. George Fraker, of
Topeka, Kas. He was alleged to have
been drowned In the Missouri river two
years ago. But he was captured Sunday
In the woods near Tower, this state, and
has admitted his identity. He will go
back to Kansas without q requisition. He
said he had no intention of defrauding the
companies at first. He fell into the Mis-
souri, accidentally, but swan out on the
opposite side of the river. Learning from
the newspapers next day that ne had been
drowned he concluded to let it go at that,
SO his heirs could get the insurance.
Inc case Is one OF great general INTEREST
because of a reward of $4,000 which was
offered for his capture. Fraker is a physi-
clan and up to the latter part of 1898 was
physician to the st. Elmo hotel the lead
ing hotel in Excelsior Springs a famous
health resort near Kansas City. Together
with seven or eight companions the doctor
went fishing ON the Missouri river one day..
and after dark, and while in company OF
George Harvey, James Triplett and Jake
Crowley, q negro, he disappeared and was
seen no more. These parties afterwards
swore positively that they witnessed his
drowning while rowing in leaky boat,
but after strict search his body could not
be recovered

guidance more unerripg. Health takes the
place of disease and there comes a spiritual
power which when sent out, is adequate for
the healing of Others Why should we not
have the power of the foremost In former

DIR. W. G. Gibbons, of Minneapolis,
Mimi, made very startling statement In
one of his addresses, recently, which will
bear cogitation. He said it had been forced
upon him as vital truth, though he
trembled when he first gave it utterance
from the platform, knowing it would arouse
opposition, that Applied christianity never
contemplated building hospital, Jail. work
house, poorhouse, nor asylum for the feeble
minded, insane or for the deaf, dumb or the
blind; nor did Christ's plan of redeeming
the world include the building of an orphan
age or home for aged men and women, or
old soldiers. Applied christianity means
preach the gospel, cleanse these evils and
raise the Dead and If the principles of
Christ had been really applied, the world
would not need any of these institutions to-
day." Abbey Morton Diaz had made prac-
ideally the same statement from the Green
acre platform two days before. the thought
thus thrown out without application, was
taken home by your reporter, and ponder
Ing on the testimony of these two witnesses
OF undoubted honesty, who loved God and
their fellow men supremacy, she came to
this conclusion: This assertion, contrary as
1t Is to our long accepted ideas, is true in
the absolute; for, If the teachings of Christ
had been applied for eighteen hundred
years, the sick would nave been healed, and
so no need for hospitals; evil would have
been overcome with good, and jails and
warehouses;, things unknown children
would have been born of the highest love
and spirituality, and not of lust or ac-
cdent, and so would have been perfect in
form and mentality, and 10 institutions for
the deaf, dumb, blind, Predetermined ard
insane, would have been needed; and
should there have been any little ones
bereft of parental care. or any aged or in
firm, these solitary ones would have been
'set IN families" and not have been allow
ed to pine amid the rigors of an "institu-
tioD," no matter how well regulated.
Poverty would have been a thing unheard
of, if the perfect law OF love in its spirit of
cooperation and brotherhood had prevailed,
and thus there could not have been any
poorhouses. So pass this message along,
friends, and cooperate with might and
main with those noble souls who are trying
to hasten the coming of that glad day when
the principles of Christ shall govern the
thought, and so the conduct of all from the
least unto the greatest.
