Mr.. Dillingworth was astonished to
catch sight of his name on the under
side of the top piece. He examined it
more closely.
"This is violin made so years ago."
he gasped, more surprised than he had
ever been in his life.
Half century ago Mr.. Dillingworth
made the violin just as an experiment
and because he had knack for using
cabinet tools. He afterward sold the
violin to friend for $3.50. The friend
sold the instrument to a man who was
just starting for Australia. Dilling-
worth bought his own fiddle back at a
London violin shop for SIS.

The election for successor to the
late Congressman Bland was held in
the Eighth Missouri District Tuesday
and resulted in the election of Judge
d. w. Shackleford, Democrat, by an
estimated plurality of 1929 against
2,4S3 for Bland In 1893. The contest
was fought on silver, expansion and
trusts. VIM. j. Voshell, the Repub-
ican candidate, endorsed McKinley's
administration. The result shows
that the people of Missouri are true
to Bryan and silver and against the
trusts and Imperialism. This is the
