HOW WIN. hUSSE
CLIPPED HIS OATS

William Hussey, the Des Laos
farmer, whose name has been
bret-te'-prominence: recenttv-un
account ofhis exhibit 81 the fam
Gus Sensation oats ut the
| Farmers Convention, brought q
sample Of the oats to this office
Thursday. Mr.. Husscy believes
that he was entitled to the first
prize on oats, but is not making
any complaint because he did
not get it. He has Il Just kick
coming, however, because some
one started a report that his
oats were the ones with the ends
clipped. Now, it appears to the
Independent that this is a grave
mistake. The oats i'll question
are peculiar looking in that they
have little or no ends. Mr.. IIus-
sey did put them thru a tanning
mill and this is how he secured
a fine sample. The oats with ex-
ceedingly short ends went thru
| the wheat screen without any
trouble while those with lifelong
ends did not. This is how Mr..
tlussey clipped Che ends of with
the SCISSORS.
Mr.. Hussey sowed on an acre a
bushel and q half Of the seed and
threshed 60 bushels. Should he
had sowed another bushel to the
acre, he would have gotten a
much larger yield. Just for an
example, he hauled four loads OF
the oats to market, which ae:gre-
gated 4OS bushels, by weight
Mr.. Hussey has 1900 bushels OF
oats in his granary at Des Laos.
He says that il anyone can fur
nish evidence that he cut off the
end of but one Of the oats which
he dis played at the Grain Grow
ers' Convention, he will pay SO
ia cash. This ought to settle
the matter.

meats Nay Be- Interesting.

Chicago. ILL.,, Sept. ia remarkable
story. involving the mysterious disap-
pearance Of sS50,00O and the secret ar
rest of woman to whom this sum Is
said to have been given by Bank
Wrecker Paul 0. Stensland before his
flight, revolving around the immunity
granted by the grand jury to Theodore
Stensland, was told late Saturday. The
reason for the granting of immunity,
1t is said. was the promise by Theodore
Stensland to disclose the whereabouts
of his fugitive father and to secure the
return of this money to the depositors
of the Milwaukee Avenue State Bank.
The name Of the woman, the time
or place Of her arrest could not be
learned. Whether the woman meant
ls Mrs. Leone Langdon Key or some
other whose name has been mentioned
in connection with that of the fugitive
could not be learned. It is said how
ever. that the police have a full con-
fession from the prisoner and that she
will be kept in the background until
the wiles and arguments Of Theodore
Stensland have been exhausted.
Jacob j. Kern is declared to have
been the fulcrum used to pry loose
from the son the story Of his fathers
defalcations and the details OF his
flight. Then in turn Theodore Stems
land was worked upon. and under
promise of immunity to him he not
only told all he knew of his father and
of his whereabouts, but he promised
to do all in his power to secure the re.
turn of the missing $350,0O0 said to be
in the possession Of the woman now
under secret arrest.
