The climax was reached on
Thursday afternoon. Miss
Lloyd became alarmed at "his"
condition, and sent for doctor.
When the doctor arrived Lloyd
was dead. Then it was that
the astounding discovery that
Harry Lloyd" was really a
woman was made. Miss Lloyd
was amazed.
Several of Lloyd's neighbors
who had known "him" for years,
stated yesterday that not the
slightest suspicion of the mas
querade had ever been aroused
by the woman's appearance or
conduct.

POSED AS A MAN
FOR TWENTY YEARS
Death Reveals the Secret Which
Woman Held so Long In,
violate

London, July 16.-The re-
'narkable discovery that a wo.
man masqueraded as man for
20 years was made at Ponder
End, near Enfield Lock, on
Thursday, when "Harry Lloyd" "
aged 20, died at "his" residence
in Alma Road.
The extraordinary story ap-
parently begins with the death
of a woman named Elizabeth
Lloyd, who was buried at En-
field Cemetery in 1890. She was
the wire of a news agent nam
ed Harry Lloyd, and left little:
daughter 6 years of age. This
little girl was taken charge of
by, apparently, a man, a slim
person about so years of age.
They lived together at En-
field, and her girl was brought
up to believe that this person
was her father. "Harry Lloyd"
for many years earned a liveli-
hood as a teacher of French.
The girl was we'll cared for, and
"tne old man" interested him.
self keenly in her education.
There was nothing eccentric
in "his" habits. though che"
was never very communicative
to "his" neighbors, and, when
not at work, spent most of "his"
time in "his" room.
Many years passed quietly,
and the girl grew up ignorant
of the extraordinary part her
supposed father was playing.
Latterly the demand for les.
sons in French seemed to have
declined and Lloyd was COM
PEELED to sell newspapers and
deliver bills for living.
Lloyd went abou, "his" busi-
ness cheerfuly, though in fail
ing health, and became quite a
familiar figure in the Enfield
district, dressed in a threadbare
suit of clothes, and always
wearing a bowler hat rather
low over his" ears. ....
During the past few months
Lloyd had been in ill health,

Gently straight inside tip, has
expressed himself on the out
look for the conference today.
He desired that his name be
withheld and also the source
OF the information.
GOVERNOR is TRANQUIL.
"The observation congress
will be held here as originally
intended" he said. "There is
no chance of it going elsewhere
There isn't great possibility
that there will be many changes
in the tentative program that
was submitted to the local
board of managers, but there
may be some changes.
"Mr Pinchot aud Mr.. Baker
will be willing to meet the local
board nearly, if not quite, half
way. Both sides will probably
see greater light after they
have been in conference short
time. 1 predict that within
thirty minutes after the con
ference is begun there will be
a complete understanding and
an agreement"
Governor Eberhart leaned
back in his state room on the
Burlington train just before it
pulled out and looked at life
and the coming conservation
congress with tranquility. He
exp essed no doubt as to the
probable results of the confer.
ence to be held today.
There will be no controversy
after the situation has been
gone over" he said. 1--WE simr.

ance of politics in this congress.
l am sure that there will be no
dispute following the confer
ence."
Similar opinions were express
ed by the other representatives
of the Twin City. 1t was the
general belief that favorable re-
suits would be telegraphed
back home not later than even.

FARMERS SHOULD
HOLD STOCK
Riohland County Attorney Ad-
vises Farmers to Keep Stock,
Even if They Have to Buy It

sA~SJ A4N'
vises Farmers to Keep Stock,
Even if They Have to Buy It
During the pact two weeks, l
have travelled over a good share
of Northern Minnesota a n d
North Dakota and, while not a
very good farmer myself, the
crop conditions in the territory
mentioned, strike me as being
so important that there are Ger
tain things which ought to be
forcibly impressed upon the
farmers in the Red River Val
ley and particularly in Rich
land county.
You may set it down as set
tied fact that, except in the
Valley country, including the
Valley proper, and those coun-
ties adjoining it Immediately
on the west, the farmers are
net going to raise any appreci.
able amount of any kind of
grain and they are in worse
condition for hav aud pastur-
age. The result is bound to be
forced marketing of all the
stock except what they actual
ly must keep to do their work.
Advantage of this condition
will be taken by buyers, and
prices will go down far below
actual values. The shortage
of feed and pasture is 80 gener
al over large part of the
Northwest, that there is n o
available place to ship cattle to,
to feed over winter. Prices are
bound to 20 down to the bot
tom.
In view of these facts aud of
the further fact that, generally,
the farmers in Richland coun.
ty are going to have fair crops
and o N. surplus feed, it
strikes me that you ought to
use part of your papers to i'm
press upon them the following
facts, editorially and otherwise,
as you see fit:
1. That they can't be too
grateful that they live in a
county where crops do not fail,
even in as dry year as this
one.
2. That they ought to save
every grain of every kind of
crop.
8. That they ought to make
every ton of hay they can get.
4. That they ought not to
permit the burning of a pound
of straw. 1t will not only make
feed, but, with hay prices as
they are and will be, it will
have market value that will
make profit.
5. That every one of them
who can, ought to prepare to
feed some extra stock over
winter, even if it has to be done
chiefly on straw, and that they
ought t1 go to less fortunate
communities, when prices get
cheap enough, and buy the
stock they are to feed.
If, for any reason, they are
short of money with which to
make the purchase of cattle, !
am told by bankers in this
I j. d
county that they expect to be
able and they are perfectly will
ing to help out any reliable
farmer with a loan of money
for such a purpose.
I think the matter is Of suf.
ficient importance that you
newspaper men ought to take
it up, now, and not only give
the farmers the information
they want, but get them inter-
ested in it SO that, when the
time comes. they may be in
noaition to take advantage of

GO BEFORE CRIMINAL JUDGE AND
TAKE IMMUNITY BATH"
Those Who Do Not Make Their "Confes

trict Attorney.

Pittsburg, Pa.-Forty present ant
former members of the select and com
mon councils under indictment on 6
charge of bribery and ten more with sus
pended sentences and held in $500 bonds
upon their confession of sharing in
pool of $102,OO0 to influence the votes
of the municipal bodies, is the result Of
the first days probe of the grand jury
following the sensational confession OF
Capt. John Klein, former member OF
councils.
All day long Judge R. S. Fraser sat as
a committing magistrate in the criminal
court room and his desk became "a
throne of grace" to the many council
men under suspicion who swarmed before
the judge to be washed of their sins
On one floor of the court building the
grand jury would hear the conscience.
stricken councilmen, who would then 60
before Judge Fraser and take the i'm.
munity bath, offered by the district at.
tOrney.
Up to the adjournment Of court for
the day ten had confessed their guilt. In
most instances the amount of money
they confessed to accepting as a bride
was not over 500. One man got $500
and another $500, while others got but
$S1.1O.
The greatest surprise of the day came
late in the afternoon when DR.. w III.
Weber, member of select council, ap-
peared before Judge Fraser and made a
confession almost as startling as that
Of Klein. DIR. Weber told of receiving
$4,000 in a shoe box. This, he said, he
gave to Klein for members of common
council, while he kept $4,000 to fix"
members of the upper branch.
Later, according to Weber, it was
found necessary to secure more votes
and more money was raised and when
this was divided it was found that the
additional councilmen's share was but
SS1.1O.
