WIDOW or

Judge A. 3. Anderson Rules
That She Is Entitled to
Citizenship Despite Fact
That Husband Died Be
fore Papers Were Issued.

Is a widow whose husband had been
granted citizenship in the United
States, but who dies before the certifi-
cate can be issued be entitled to the
privileges that would have accrued to
her had her husband lived?
This question was raised in Ham
mond last week owing to the death
of Anton Zalot of East Hammond. who
was admitted to citizenship by Judge
A. B. Anderson in the federal court a
week ago last Tuesday and who died
two days later Judge Anderson yes
terday instructed Charles Surprise. the
deputy United States clerk at Ham
mond, to turn over the certificate to
the widow.
This is the first time the question
has arisen in Indiana, Illinois or Wis
consin, and as far as is known II is the
first one in the United States.
The question was settled by CORE
spondence. and Mrs. Zalot is happy in
the possession of the certificate. Hav-
ing 1t in her possession she is en-
titled to the rights and privileges that
any American citizens wife could have
in going abroad. or in protecting her
property in the United States in the
event of war In Mrs. Zalot's case the
certificate was doubly necessary be-
cause she is a property owner here
and intends to visit the old country
some time in the future.
The certificate is an essential neces-
sity to prove citizenship but usually
not issued until several days after the
admission is made.

shape and the charter was granted
without dissenting voice.
The number of the new chapter will
be $50, which is considered a lucky

Nice winter weather

Evening, judge. Nice winter weather

The Judge who was ponderous
person. vaguely suggesting the great
Heman. admitted that the weather
was fine. patronizing it as he did so
The clerk continued the conversation.
Captain Cy waited. At length he
spoke.

settled whether you have it snow or
not. but I'm here to see Congressman
Everdean. Hadn't you better order
one of your fo'mast hands to hunt him
up?"
The Judge condescended to smile, as
did several other men who stood near.
The clerk Redeemed.
"Do you want to see Mr.. EyerdeanF'
he snapped.
"Why, yes. l did. But l can't see
him from here without strainin' my
eyesight.'
The clerk sharply demanded one of
the captains visiting cards. He didn't
get one, for the very good reason that
there was none in existence.
Tell him an old friend of his dads
is here on the main deck waitin' for
him." said Captain Cy. "That'll do
first rate. Thank you, admiral"
Word came that the congressman
would be down in a few moments
The captain beguiled the interval by
leaning on the rail and regarding the
clerk with an awed curiosity that an
noyed it's object exceedingly. The in
spection was still on when tall man
of an age somewhere in the early thir
ties walked briskly up to the desk.
"Who is it that wants to see me?' he
asked.
The clerk waved a deprecatory hand
in Captain Cy's direction. The new
conner turned.
"My name is Everdean," he said
