ROME, MORGAN and MASONRY

we're told TO me In regard to VIM. Nor
gan did not sound right, so took tho
train for Topeka. Kansas, where Mrs.
VIM. @. Barr lived, and this is the
story that she related to me in great
emotion:
Mrs. Barr told me that she was a
friend OF VIM. Morgan, and that she
was called TO identify his body. but
instead OF finding the corpse Of VIM.
Morgan, she found the body OF some
one else and not that Of Morgan, and
she further told me that VIM. Morgan,
before his disappearance, had Writ
ten her that he was persuaded by n
number OF Catholic priests 10 leave
row, had followed their advice. and
that these priests had written a book,
and Insisted that he should publish Il,
but he never did give his consent, and
stated that he never would: however,
the book appeared. and the fact of
the matter is that II was a clumsy
forgery BY the prlesteraft Of cathol.

This book appeared in print, and
VIM. Morgan became frightened, as
he realized that should the country at
large believe that he was the author
OF this book. he would be considered
as a traitor. and he became frightened
and did not know what to do, and
about this time two Catholic priests
approached him. and persuaded him
TO leave the country, and they took
him TO "a Trappist monastery" near
Montreal, Canada

BY BERNARD FREsENBoRo.
There Is scarcely a man or woman
in America but what has heard OF
VIM. Morgan. who lived at Batavia, In
Western New York. who. IL was
claimed, wrote an expose os Freema'
sonry, and who, the Catholic church
claims, was killed by the Masonic fra
ternity for writing this expose.
The fact OF the matter is that this
book was prepared by the Catholic
church for electioneering purposes.
and II served their scheme well and
truly.
II is history that Morgan dlsap-
peared very suddenly, and the Cath
olic church gave Il out that he had
been killed by the Masonic fraternity.
which Is untrue, as VIM. Morgan was
spirited away, and the trick was
turned by Catholicism.
"wm. Morgan" became the issue
for the campaign. and IL was narrated
around that Morgan was conveyed In
a carriage from Batavia TO Niagara by
FTeemasons, and there drowned In
Lake Ontario.
A body was produced near the
mouth OF the Niagara River, but a
friend OF VIM. Morgan, who knew him
we'll, by the name Of Mrs. VIM. G.
Barr, denied that the body that was
found at the mou'h of the Niagara
River, was that of Morgan. and a de-
vout Catholic remarked at the post.
mortem examination that "lt was q
good enough Morgan until after elee-
tlon."
A rigid investigation was made and
no one was ever convicted OF murder
ing Morgan.
The result of the election was that
Catholicism carried her point. The
Catholic church had turned. by this
excitement. the eyes OF the world to.
wards Freemasonry. and claimed that
Morgan's fate was caused by the Ma.
-onic fraternity.
When ! came to America, I was
given instruction in regard to the Sc
oret societies. and the Morgan case
was gone over with me In detail. and
was given The Bulls" OF three

Every grower OF barley should test

Graded to secure the plumpest and

A tester for testing the samples can
be easily made by using two tin
plates, one slightly smaller than the
other Cotton flannel pads are cut OF
the same size as the inside Of the I'M

ter and squeezed to remove surplus
moisture. A pad is put in bottom Of
larger plate and 100 grains distribut.
ed over IL. Another pad is placed
upon the seed and the smaller plate
inverted and used as a cover to pre-
vent evaporation. This tester should
be placed In a convenient place where
degrees F. Water can be added to
pads when they become somewhat dry.
A record of the test should be kept
and sprouted seeds removed from day
to day.
Should Test IS Per Cent.
No grain should give a termination
OF less than 95 per cent for the best
results. The higher the percentage OF
termination the better That all the
grain terminates is not sufficient. how
