Many persons have an idea that

In Corning, Davis conducts a groc-

mill in apple season. He is a quiet,
unassuming man of few words. He
has never had his picture taken since
he was appointed electrician for the
state, and he steadfastly refuses to
be snapped. His reason for this is
chiefly that he desires TO keep his
identity as unfamiliar as possible for
fear that some fanatic might try to
wreck vengeance upon him for the
killing of some relative or friend.
Davis began life as farmer. He
has saved the money earned from the
eleetricutions, and put it out at in

wealthy man.
