Insurance Lawyer Suspicious
op.,tDal 10 DAILY leader.


Niles, Mich, Oct. 25-Great excite
ment prevailed here when J. w. Burt
ANA B. l.. Cosner, employees OF the
Frisco railroad, arrived here and
claimed that the Man of Mystery OF
this plac is not George A. Kimmel
but is one AL White.
Mr. Burt was intimately acquaint'
ed with White as a railroad man, and
Mr.. Cosner not only knew White, but
also knew George A. Kimmel at Ar
kansas City, kan
Engineer Burt recently identified a
photograph of Kimmel as being that
of White, who disappeared from
Chickasha, Okla, in 1892.
The Man of Mystery and Mr. Burt
met face to face on the street and
Mr.. Burt gripped his hand, and call
ed him "A"
The Man of Mystery refused to an
swer to the name and claimed that
ne did not know Burt.
Mr. Cosner, who is Frisco en-
gineer said: u formerly lived at
Arkansas City, and was there when
George Kimmel disappeared. We liv-
ed in the same house, and | was well
acquainted with him. When Mr.. Burt
told me about the photograph | be-
came interested and came to Niles
with nim.
To-day, | had a long talk with this
mysterious person and can positive
ly say he is not Kimmel. There is
nothing in his looks OF actions to re-
mind me of him."
The two railroad men had arr3ng
ed for an interview with the Man of
Mystery
This meeting was prevented by
the arrival of Edward O'Brien, OF
Chicago, attorney sfor the New York
Life Insurance company.
Mr.. O'Brien demanded OF Messrs.
Burt and Cosner information as 10
who sent them to Niles, who pald
their expenses and what their mis-

Apple Pie Without Apples.

A guest at an old fashioned home
dinner was eulogizing apple pie and
her hostess when another guest, who
had been a California pioneer, recalled
the "apple" pie given the children of
1852 to appease their homesick crav-
ings when apples were dollar a
pound. 1t was made by breaking four
soda crackers into an earthern bowl
and pouring over them a pint Of cold
water rendered very tart by citric
acid. When soft the crackers were
laid on a pie plate on the undercrust
Over them were sifted two table
spoonfuls of light brown sugar and a
little allspice and cinnamon. A pretty
perforated top crust was added. and In
few minutes a perfect apple pie was
taken from the oven to delight young
and old.-New York Sun.

II is Pervadins the Whole Country. De-

How widespread is the progressive
movement in American politics was
eloquently expressed by Governor
Woodrow Wilson of New Jersey In a
recent speech. The governor said:
at does not require any great mag
nation to think that high thoughts
and purposes in politics are running
subtly through every household and
every member of every household In
this country 1t does not need that
you should touch Enthusiastically
touch elbows-with men in the street
and men in the shop in order to know
the great issues of human happiness
that are involved in a great contest
like this, for the question of the tariff
is not mere question of policy. 1t Is
a question Of the Encouragement OF the
public interests as you touch every
household In this country, and how
any man In such circumstances can
hold his head up after he has voted for
a special interest without a just con.
ception of the common interests for
one cannot comprehend.
But whether men can comprehend
1t or not, help it or not, we all know
that the mills of the gods grind slow.
ly,' and they grind exceedingly fine,
and the men who now resist this
great impulse of reform, the men who
Impede this great compulsion of pub
lie interest, will be ground so fine in

Laments That They Have Fled.
A priceless manuscript of eighteen
pages. found in an Egyptian monu

France about the year 1S47. is thought
to be the oldest book In the world.
Procured at Thebes by Prisse
pAvennes and presented by him to
the national library at Paris. it is
usually called the "Papyrus Prisse,"
from the name of the donor. As the
manuscript was found in monument
of the eleventh dynasty. It must be an
terror to the shepherd kings and there
fore older by many centuries than the
time of Moses-older even than the
date usually assigned TO Abraham
and so of all existing books 1t would
be the most ancient. The words of

been written 1000 years ago. are In

GOVERNMENT BY THE PEOPLE.
All Progressive Reforms Have That
For Their Object, Says Wilson.

For Their Object, Says Wilson.
Discussing the progressive move
ment in politics, Governor Woodrow
Wilson of New Jersey said recently:
"If you will look at the proposed re-
forms, proposed by men In both par
ties, meant to serve the country in
some special way, you will see that
each particular reform has a definite
object. For example, the question OF
the cost of living Is a question which
touches the great body Of the people.
1t does not touch those exceptional
persons whose income Is abundant.
1t touches the whole body Of the peo-
Pile. The question Of direct primaries
touches the accessibility of the offices
by the people. 1t touches the means
which they are to exercise to put the
sort of men they desire into office.
The question of the equalization of
taxation means that equality which
is Justice, that fairness which will see
that no man is taxed more than an
other man or upon different basis
from other men or other corporations.
The question of corrupt practices In
elections is question of the attacks
which have been made upon the vir.
tue of the people.
EVERY direction you turn you will
see that what we are straining after
is to bring the government back with
in the touch of the people and to use
1t In behalf of the people. Upon what
sort of occasion. therefore. in what
sort of campaign, should man who
remembers the long traditions OF
American government take greater
pleasure and zest than in a campaign
which has such objectsT'
