A Trip In South Africa.

Levi Doner, one of the Brethren
in Christ missionaries in South Africa
writes interestingly in personal let
ter Of trip which he recently made
accompanied by Harvey J. Frey. He
says: I'VE went by bicycle recently
to Chibi, one hundred thirty-five
miles east OF our home. Roads we're
heavy and required four days. We
arrived about "pela-mandhla" (about
all in) as Il was very hot. We. spent
several days In this district trying to
locate a new mission. Some Of the
natives were very hostile to our pro-
posed plans while others received us
gladly. Our chief food was poks
(millet) porridge, peanuts and baked
pumpkin. At last we selected very
fine location on a large hill at the
bottom Of which we're good springs.
We have filed on the ground asking
a twenty-one year lease for two hun
dred morgen (400 Rcres) grazing
rights for one hundred head Of live
stock and other privileges. This
will become the home Of some Of our
new workers coming out next year.
Returning home we stopped one night
in a big kraal (town.l The chief
was friendly and presented US

SHE NOW HAS HER PENSION.
Case Of Mrs. Mary Dalhammer Is a
Peculiar One.

Following an examination by H
W. Morrow, special pension exam
liner, Mrs. Mary Dalhamer, of Saline
may be compelled to pay to the re-
ceiver of the Abilene State bank
$46S pension money paid to her by
John A. Flack, the defaulting cashier
says the State Journal. The trou-
BILE started eight weeks ago when
Mrs. Dalhammer failed to receive
her November pension.
When Mrs. Dalhamer reported her
case to the pension office at Wash
ington, the case was Immediately
referred to the Topeka office and
Mr.. Morrow went to Abilene to in
vestigate the matter. Mrs. Dalham-
er said that for years Flack had paid
her the little pension which she
thought was due her from the gov
eminent. At the time Morrow took
the case, the bank officials knew
nothing Of the transaction. An in.
vestigation showed that for several
years Flack had psld the woman
$12 a month pension and charged
the account to the hank.
1t now appears that the peEslon
papers had been in I lacks pOss ,ss;on
for safe-keeping. In some nlaurcr
the papers were lost and the bank
cashier continued to make payments
at the expense of lie institution with
which he was connected. He was
never reimbursed, so far as the PEN
sion office was able to learn, and
the case proved to be one Of the
most mysterious the local office ever
handled. The government was will
Ing to pay the woman pension, but
when no word was received from her
The name was dropped from the PEN
sion rolls. An effort will now be
made to have Mrs. Dalhammer re-
Instated and to secure the payment
If the back pension covering a lapse
IF more than four years. If this
application is approved, the Abilene
woman will probably assign the back
payments to the creditors Of the de-
'unct institution.

little at a time. Then along about
the beginning of the sixth inning theOc.
cidentals woke up, the Wellsville
pitcher went to pieces and from then
on it was regular swatfest. Four or
five home runs were made during the
bombardment and no mater in what
condition the balls we're served across

them with avidity. Langford from the
second innings pitched good ball, and
it could be seen from then on that the
Wellsville team did not have a look in.
From the seventh inning on the slug
ging became perpetual motion affair,
each batter coming up in one, two
three order, swatted either for a two
or three Dagger or a home run. BY
this time the Welsvillians were shot
to pieces, while the coon prayed as
easily as If they were playing town lot
