Democratic War Horse Says He viii
Try to Make Good.

Humphrey, Neb., April 6.-P. +. Nc
Killip, whose affairs have been pushed
into bankruptcy by creditors of this
place and in Minnesota, talks as fol
lows of his financial condition to the
Democrat:
"Some of my creditors, becoming i'm.
patient, have filed bankruptcy pro-
ceedings against me, and thus tied my
hands so as to prevent me from doing
any business for two or three weeks
until the case can be heard. Should
the court adjudge me a bankrupt, then
the men whom | owe would elect a
trustee to take charge of my property
sell it-and pay my debts. | have
no fault to find with the creditors who
have commenced proceedings, as
have been unable to meet payments
due them at maturity Should my
property fail to pay my debts in full
will start again and eventually pay
every man whom l owe a dollar. l am
informed that there have been some
wild rumors out about my running
away, and you may say emphatically
that | have no definite plans for NOV
ing, and that any move | may make
will be with the sole object Of getting
into a place where | can make suffi.
cient money to pay my debts to the
last dollar. No man will eventually
lose a cent and all | ask is ordinary
charity and forbearance until | can
get on my feet again. | am more than
grateful for the consideration which
the men whom | owe have thus far
shown, and this has strengthened my
resolve that every creditor shall be
paid in full. | will remain in Hum
phrey at least for the present, and
should trustee be appointed for my
property, will tender him my services
free Of cost in disposing of same and
winding up my estate. Should there
be shortage, will then lay plans for
making sufficient money to pay for it
and with that end in view may possibly
move, but that is a matter for future
consideration"

Preacher Bars Merry Widow.

THE Merry Widow hats must go,
or our congregations will be broken
up is the statement made by a Mus
kogee, Oklahoma, minister who had
few dozen of the new hats in his
congregation Sunday. with a few
Merry Widows on the front seats,
what's the use of anyone else coming
in? They cannot see the minister and
he cannot see them. Besides, with
the Merry Widows only one person
can sit where three used to sit. 1t is
difficult enough to keep the congrega-
tons up to the standard in the sum-
mer time under ordinary circumstanc-
es, but what's the use to try with the
new canopies worm"
1t is understood that the Ministers
alliance will take the matter up and
try to get concerted action to persuade
the women of their congregation to
go bareheaded to church on Easter
Sunday, or else not wear Merry Wild
ows They fear that the male contin-
gent of the congregation, which is
usually out in full numbers on Easter,
will vow a vow never to go again If

Hat Money For Church.

Several dozen women, members OF
the First Methodist Episcopal church
in Chillicothe. Mo, have shown their
devotion to their church In a unique
manner. They have agreed to forego
that article of dress so dear to the
feminine heart, the Easter hat, In or
der that a church debt of 500 may be
paid.
A year ago the Ladies' Working so
ciety of this church took upon itself a
debt of 800 for the church. The debt
is still in existence. and the leaders
of the society have been at their wits
end as to the best means for raising
1t. Recently one of the society mem.
bers hit upon the plan of asking the
members to put the money that they
expected to spend for Easter bonnets
into a fund to pay off this debt.
Drawing up list pledging its sign.
ers to such a promise, she first signed
1t and then took it to other members
of the society. The proposition was
severe test on the loyalty of the
women to the church. but they were
equal to the sacrifice. Many of them
signed the list and thus agreed to give
up the cash that would have been
spent for a Merry Widow" for the
purpose of paying off that long.stand-
ing debt.
The result is somewhat hard on the
millinery stores, but 1t Is quite crafty
ing to the church officers. The wo.
men who have thus pledged them
selves are expected to go to church
Easter Sunday bareheaded and show
to the other members of the congrega-
ton who have made the sacrifice.
Whether the brethren will arise to
the occasion by giving up spring der
by" for the same purpose remains to
