NINETY-FIRST BIRTHDAY.
DR.. Hansmann Is Celebrating
Happy Anniversary.

DIR. Theodore HanSmann of 1122 Will
lard street northwest entered upon the
ninety-first year of his age today. Many
Of his friends visited him last evening

other remembrances in honor of the nine
tieth anniversary of his birth.
Dr. Hansmann was born in Deesdorff
Germany, which is about two hours ride
from Bremen-H Haven, September 81, 1921.
He attended school there, later going to
the University of Goettingen. where he
began a study of medicine. Later he sup
plemented this study at Vienna and Ber-
lin. He studied under Prof Barnhardt
Langbeck. one of Germanys most noted
scholars Of that day.
DR.. HanSmann came to this country in
1853 He joined the Turner regiment at
the outbreak of the civil war, under Maj.
Gehrhardt He recalls wildly the turbu-
lent scenes in this city during the war and
also the ASA ssinaton of Lincoln, al
though he was not present at that oc-
currence. Although he served this coun-
try during the war he was never in the
German army. In connection with this
fact, DIR. Hansmann relates a rather Gu
rious incident: Il said at the time | was
going to the place where the drafting for
the German army was being conducted,
he said, that would draw slip number
e., THAT being one of the numbers which
would release a man from the service.
When 1t was my turn to draw put in

HEARST BUYS CASTLE
BUILT IN 18TH CENTURY
Ancient English Structure to
Be Removed to United
States.

LONDON, September 22.-Tattershall
Castle. which was built in the fifteenth
century by Lord Cromwell, lord treas
urer of England. and which is regard
ed as the finest extant example of a
brick building of that period in this
country. has, according to reports pub
lished here Yesterday been bought by
William Randolph Hearst, who intends
to remove it stone by stone and brick
by brick for re-erection in the United
States.
The Times this morning states that
there is no confirmation of the report
of the sale, but at the same time pub
fishes d telegram from Sir Henry
Knollys, who says the rumor is fully
believed in the neighborhood of the
castle, and "arouses extreme indigna-
ton"
Tower Well Preserved.
He adds: THE rickwork Of the tower
is in a solid state of preservation. To
tear it into pieces for transport to
some American city must needs wiring
the heart of any Englishman who in
these days. when SO much that is hon
ored is being overthrow, prizes the
monumental records of nobler timee
Tattershall Castle has been before
the public eye for some weeks past.
1t is situated near Boston, Lincoln
shire, and contains some famous Chin
neypieces. beautifully decorated with
heraldic shields and badges.
Five years ago the castle was sold to
Ernest Terah Hooley. who sold 1t to
another man whose name is unknown,
but from whom certain art dealers OBJ
tanned options on the chimneypieces.
The process of removing them began
some time ago and ali cutlery was raised
the country. Letters by the score were
written to the papers urging their p1Ir-
chase. and Sir Francis Trippel offered to
loan to the National Trust ea,OU with
out interest to purchase the castle.
Offer Is Declined.
The council of the National Trust met
and debated the offer, but decided
against accepting ii on the ground that
three of the four mantelpieces had been
damaged and only one was in perfect
condition. Yesterdays announcement of
the sale of the castle came on top of
this decision.
The Evening News stated that am
American, later said to be Mr. Hearst.
went to see the castle last Sunday and
concluded the purchase yesterday.

LOSE MILLIONS ON WHEAT

Chicago, May 1T is estimated
that between So, ,O)0, 0,O01anl 800 v
600 was lost yesterday in the wheat
pit when the bulls, including }.
Ogden Armour and Adolph Lichstern,
practically threw up their hands and
permitted the market to 60 to pieces.
The decline was brought about by
the fact that people owning wheat
anxious to dispose of it because OF
ideal conditions fora bumper" crop
in the winter wheat belt. They
simply threw untold amounts of
wheat on the market at around 81 ,
to the utter discontinue of the bull
leaders.
Not since Joseph Letters deal of a
few years ago have sections of North
ern Michigan offered any cash wheat
to this market. But this week Michi
gan has been contributing factor to
the general slump, and thousand of
bushels have come out of hiding to
the local markets.
James A. Patten has aligned him
self on the bear side of the market,
and with him have been Arthur
Cullen, W. r. Linn and the Bartlett,
Frazier and Rosenbaum clique. In
St. Louis John Il. Milliken and Jacob
Schreiner; in Minneapolis, Charles
E. Lewis; in Duluth, A. d. Thomp-
son, and in Canada, James Carruthcrs
all believed that wheat was out of
line and sell above its true value.

ANTI SALOON LEAGUE IN FIGHT
FOR GOVERNOR.

The Anti-Saloon League announce.
that it intends if necessary to take q
hand in the campaign for Governor
In statement just issued the League
says:
1T will do no good to elect leg.
islature which will pass the local op.
ton bill if we permit the liquor in
terests to elect Governor who will
veto it. The legislature can be chang
ed in two years but if the liquor
traffic gets the Governor it means
four years delay.
The League does not ask either
party to declare against the saloons,
but earnestly appeals to the leaders
of both parties to cooperate with it
in preventing bitter and wholly
unnecessary fight on the local option
question this fall by nominating men
who will declare in favor of handing
the liquor question back to the people
for decision.
THE League has no candidate in
either party and is not trying to die
tate either nomination, and if the
Democratic party nominates a good
man who is satisfactory on this
question the League will not oppose
him. But Of those candidates al
ready mentioned it will especially
oppose Col. Buchanan Schley, because
in the recent Washington County
campaign he stood for the saloons
when the question was voted upon,
and by standard for the repeal of
the Washington County law took
away from the people Of his home
county the right to vote at all. 1t
will also oppose Gen. Murray Van
diver, the Democratic State Chair
man, who for two sessions has used
his personal and official influence to
defeat the local option bill.
THE League has spent four years
and $75 600 bnilding an organization
in preparation for this years fight,
and the contest will become increas-
ingly bitter until the local opti on
bill is passed"
