THE MAN IN H
IRON MASK.

-
The greatest mystery of all history
Is the marvellous story concerning the
Man In the Iron Mask. and it seems
almost incredible that. in spite of the
great amount of Investigations. nothing
has ever been brought to light to throw
n ignite cleW as to who was this
mysterious parsonage.
The individual about whom so much
has been written first attracted at
tention in the latter part of the 18th
century as n prisoner in the French
prison-castle OF Pignerol. His hands
were slender and white. like those of
a courtier. and his ~carefulness in dress
indicated that he was born in refine
ment. His cell was furnished i'm a
luxurious way. unlike those of the
other prisoners. and everything was
done for his comfort and convenience,
but the striking thing about him was
that his face was completely covered
by a huge, shapeless black mask.
This mask was of wonderful me-
chanism. 1t was made of velvet and
was supported by steel springs and
so constructed that the prisoner could
eat and drink without removing it. It
had every appearance of being made
oner received the name Of THE Man
in h Iron Mask
King Louis, it is said. had himself
penned h Instructions: Look to 1t
that no n ever is to. know what be-
came of this man.
One day. while thus confined at
PignerOl. the prisoner observed crowds
lounging about the prison below his
window. n tearing q piece of linen
from the sleeve Of his shirt. he wrote
thereon a message with a piece Of

WHO WROTE THE
DECLARATION?

There has always been a controversy
as to who wrote the Declaration of In
dependence. Ii amy school boy were
to be asked the question he would
ferson." Eut q great many people
who are no longer school boys believe
1t was written by another man and
that Jefferson has for more than a
century been falsely credited with the
authorship. The mystery will never
of some of the facts the reader can
form his own conclusion.
In the inscription prepared by
Thomas Jefferson for his tomb. he
noted that he preferred to be remem-
bered as the author of the Declara-
ton of Independence and of tho
Statute of Virginia for religious free
dom. and Father of the University of
Virginia Every one credits homas
Jefferson with having been a man of
the highest honor. and If he did o
write the Declaration there are very
few who would doubt that to him be-
longed the honor of its inception.
But the assumption that Jefferson
unaided wrote the great state paper,
unequaled as it is in eloquence and
dignity, is based upon veal evidence
and 1t is noteworthy that he did not
make a positive claim until after his
SOth- year.
Six months before the country re-
ceived it's Declaration OF Independence
an ANONYMOUS pamphlet was published
entitled Common Sense" Its success
was unprecedented. The copyright was
assigned to the colonies by the author,
and not until several editions were is
sued was it accredited to Thomas
Paine. In literary point of view it
wa one of the finest productions in
the English language. But the author
wa not an aspirant for literary came:
but his sole aim was the achievement
or American independence.
Paine was a bosom friend of Benja-
min Franklin. They We're both very
secretive men. and Franklin. who had
induced Paine to come to America,
knew that ne could trust him. Frank
I'm was a membe of the committee to
draft a declaration. The task was as
signed to Jefferson and in a very few
DAYS 1T was completed.
Franklin handed to Jefferson a draft
already prepared by Paine, and as
sured him that he could trust the
writer v to lay claim to it's au-
thorship. What could Jefferson do but
use it? So with a few verbal changes
ne reported it. and it was adopted by
congress. after striking out several
passages more eloquent than any that
remain. as. for instance, one about the
slave trade.
The adoption of this Declaration
position. Not daring to say outright
that he was its author. he studiously
evaded that point whenever it became
necessary to allude to the subject. But
at last. when Franklin had been dead
80 years and Paine IA years, Jefferson
ventured to claim what no one then
disputed. It would never have done
for him to name TIE real author and
who could be harmed, he doubtless
thought. by taking the credit. to him
self? But the science OF criticism. like
n spectrum analysis which reveals
the composition OF the stars. points un-

erringly to Thomas Paine rs the only
man who could indite that greatest
OF literary masterpieces. the Declara-
ton OF Independence.
There are those naturally who diff
fer with this opinion. 1T has been
frequently asserted" says Appleton's
Encyclopedias of American Biography.
that Paine az the author OF the
original draft of the Declaration of
Independence, but the evidence offered
Is far from conclusive"
Another writer says: 'Jeiferson's
style of writing was easy and grace
full. Painc's was forced. terse, point
ed. The Declaration is couched far
more in the latter style than in the
former. Phrases and words dear to
Paine are scattered broadcast through
the document. The expression Mature
and Natures God" fits i'm with Paine's
favorite theory that God was to be
found in Nature. These arguments by
men who have made Il deep study of
the matter leave the question still a
mystery ms to who wrote the Declara-
ton of Inuepepdence

ARE YOUR FIRE INSUR-
ANCE POLICIES GOOD?

The undersigned wishes to inform
the public and his patrons in par
ticular that all policies issued by the
American National Fire Insurance
company of Rock Island, H., which
policies were later reinsured in the
American Union Insurance company OF
Philadelphia. Pa, are now of uncer-
tain value. Having found the business
Improbable. the American Union has
applied for a receiver, as noted in
Yesterdays Argus, thereby making il
apparent to those holding these pol
iC.es that they are without positive
protection. New policies in cOmpan-
les of unquestiOned standing await
all those holding policies in the
American National issued through the
Maucker agency. and the Hubbard and
Tom and Schreiner agencies, whose
business has been taken over by the
undersigned. and all such poIicyhold-
ers are requested to bring in their
policies al once for exchange. AS has
been the custom Of the Maucker sgen-
Cy in the past. these policies viii be
replaced without any cost to the as
sured. W. {. MAUCKER-(Adv.D
