ance he carried. It is alleged that
like omissions were made in other
disclose about 100000 other insur
applications.
Passed by Doctors.
Attorneys for the insurance COM
panies contend that if arterial sClero-
sis or hardening of the arteries had
developed, as set out in DR.. Glaser's
report Painter would not have been
considered such an absolutely safe
risk as he was accepted to be by the
medical examiners, who passed on
him before his applications were ap-
proved. This physical imparity that
became manifest only after his vitals
had undergone chemical scrutiny is
one of the added mysteries to this
mysterious case. The bismuth found
in Painters stomach is explained as
stomach specific, taken probably a
short time before his sudden death.
That the Painter family intends
to leave no stone unturned or to take
no chances whatever with the insur-
anCe companies is shown by the fact
that a strong guard has been main
| tanned constantly over his grave since
the funeral. The existence of this
guard was kept a secret until this
week. when it became known through
the Sherif's office, which had been
called upon to detail officers for the
purpose. The explanation of this
close watch is that the family and
the E. O. Painter Fertilizer Com
pany feared agents Of the insurance
companies would attempt to tamper
with the corpse.

not believe any of the insurance

that the companies were gathering
evidence to show that Painters death
was due to causes other than an &C

1t was predicted two weeks ago that
the Mutual would take the lead in
fighting payment, since that COM
pany had issued as much insurance
on his life this year as all others
combined, the Mutual policies total
ing 100000.
1t has now developed that one of
the strong points to be used by the
companies in resisting payment will
be that Painter misrepTesented the
great amount of insurance he was Sc
curing, when making application for
new policies.
All the Mutual applications were
handled personally by Wilcox, a
close personal and business friend of
the dead man. According to him,
Painter did not mention any of the
other new insurance except 100000
with the Penn Mutual, thus conceal
ing about 100000 applied for and
issued by other companies. Another
similar instance is related by repre-
sentatives of the Union Central, in
which Painter had a $4,000 policy.

AND THE FARMERS NEARLY ALL
FALL FOR THIS NEW ONE
Berlin, July 1.-THE German pro-
vinciaI police are endeavoring to
round up a gang of hotel thieves
working an entirely new trick va
riOusly known as 1.-THE Magnet" or
''The Moth and the Candle" Hotels
are selected in the provincial towns
which have no electric lights, and
few even among the best, have that.
Usually a rich farmer or traveller is
picked out as the victim. A beauti-
full young woman, called the mag
net" rents an adjoining room. Late
at night the victim is awakened by
a light knock on the door and shy
but sweet voice stammers out that
it's owner is in difficulty. Her candle
or gas light has been extinguished.
She has no matches.
The victim can't resist that voice.
He opens the door of his room and
sees in the dim hall a picture in be-
witching negligee, dOwncast eyes and
bIushing cheeks. The victim, whether
young or old, feels that gallantry de-
mands he should aid beauty in dis
tress. No, he demurs at giving her
matches. He insists upon going to
her room and lighting her candle or
gas himself. The lady stands at the
door of her room; rarely will she en-
ter while the chivalrous farmer is
there. She is very modest. The vic4
tim is in no hurry to leave. .c
When he awakGns in his own room.
next morning he finds he has been.
robbed of money and jewelry. Com

Proceeded erstwhile to examine her
stock of provisions for pabula-

Intending to give her ossivorous
canine a nutritive appetizer:
But when she approached the deposit
for victuals in close contiguity,
The cupboard astonished the dame
by revealing a perfect vacuity,
And so the impoverished canine
remained an unsatisfed gor

A gentleman indigenous to our mu-

Distinguished by extraordinary

Propelled into bramble-bush his

And thus annihilated both his

Perceiving the calamity by which

He exerted all his potency and

Again into a briar-filled copse he
shrewdly somersaulted,
And refriction quite restored his
