Mr.. Fielder said today, when informed
that Morse had admitted that he was
no longer financially responsible and

for his business ills that he had heard
Of no plan contemplated by creditors

Hints Of Bankruptcy Action.
- am not surprised, however, thai
Morse admitted to the court in the
Hudson Navigation Company suit that
he was not financially responsible now
But the intimation that his creditors
are planning to put him into bank
ruptCy is news to me. | know of no
such plan, and l doubt very much if
would cooperate with it If such an at
tempt is made unless advised to do so
by Morse"
The first intimation that Morse was
seeking a solution for his tangled finan-
cisl affairs by court action came when
Morse. through dispositions taken in
Rapallo, Italy, on January s, to be USED
in the trial of a suit involving the af-
fairs of the Hudson Navigation Com
pany, admitted that he was not finan-
cially responsible. The testimony ran
as follows:
Q. Are you financially response
BILE? A. No.
q. Are there unsatisfied judg-
ments against you for more than
100000? A. Yes.
6ames His III Health.
Q Have you not recently sug-
gested to your attorneys that your
creditors put you through bank
ruptcy? A. Yes.
Morse told the commissioner that his
III health had prevented him from set
Ting his debts. He said positively that
he had not filed a petition in bank
ruptcy nor had he contemplated one
until recently.
When questioned about the judg-
ments against him, the former banker
said:
There are three judgments against
me- two of which are owing to my hav-
ing guaranteed peoples accounts and
Indorsing notes, and are not due to my
direct liability"
The testimony was taken in Italy by
A. Levigne Whately, an English attor-
ney, carrying a rowing commission from

SUCCESSFUL HOG RAISING.

Gust Eckman of Henry, Neb., was
at the yards with load Of good hogs
of his own raising and feeding tina
sold at $s.35. Mr.. Eckman was well
pleased with the price and with the
showing made by his hoge here. The
country around Henry, Neb., is one OF
those fortunate sections where they
have had plenty of rains this year
and Mr.. Eckman states that crops
have been good. That country is
rather new country, but is getting
better every year and hog raising is
increasing there right along. Mr..
Eckman himself has close 10 300 head
of hogs back which he will finish for
the later market. He has an eighty
acre farm at Henry and feeds his
hogs largely on barley. as the seas.
ons are rather too short TO mature
corn. He plants about 25 acres OF
barley and when it is ready to harvest
he cuts it with the mower and rakea
it into windrows. He has his fence
all hog tight and turns the hogs right
into the field TO do their own harvest
ing. He runs them in this barley for
about six weeks, giving them access
to alfalfa, also, and then puts them
up and feeds them for about thirty
days before shipping. He has self
feeder and grinds his feed, giving
the hogs a ration of about one1third
corn and two-thirds wheat. When he
cuts his alfalfa he stacks it right ir
the hog yards and during the winter
let's the hogs run right to the stacks
giving them some grain as needed, ir

well on the rations as above outlined,

JAPAN LEADS ALL NATIONS
IN WHITE SLAVERY"

TOXIC, Oct. 29.-That Japan leads
all nations in open white slavery" is
the charge of the Japan Mail, which
states that there are more than g.
100000 girls and young women in the
public houses of prostitution in Japan.
Thoughtful, intelligent Japanese have
been considerably aroused by the
campaign of Professor Hiranumas of
the Waseda university, against this
evil. Professor Hiranumas recently
declared that the "Goisha is running
Japan" Little can be done however
as long as the government gives such
public houses concession and Ii
cense. 1t is pointed out that Japan
is obtaining world wide reputation
for immortality Bishop Cecil, in
Toxic has published protests in the
Jill Shimpo and Kokumin, received
by him from his church people in
Sangapore and other cities in the
Malay states, against the flooding of
those places with immoral Japanese
women. The desire is expressed that
the English and Japanese govern
ments get together and agree upon a
plan by which the admission of such
women in the Malay cities will be
made next to impossible.

BANISH THAT CROUCH.

Did you ever try to smile when you
felt a crouch coming on? If you
never did, the very next time that
something goes wrong and you feel
like rebelling against things in gen.
eral and something in particular, just
try smiling, look at some one you
thought you disliked and smile. It
isn't altogether human to be optimis-
tic and wear the "smile that won't
come off," but it is fine thing for
one to advocate and practice on ones
self. While every one is entitled TO a
certain amount of crouch, yet if you
are not careful you are exhibiting the
crouch most of the time and conse-
quently are termed "grouch.
Most of the situations of veryday
life that are perplexing have hum
orous side If you but look for it, And
if you indulge in good hearty laugh
it will chase the gloom away and the
situation will not be half so serious
As an antidote for grouches cultivate
sense Of humor and laugh.
