were as depressed as the business
men. Grandisson was the life and
soul of society. and with his depar-
ture the bottom dropped out OF every
thing
Imagine, then, the happiness that
prevailed in Heidelberg when, in 1910,
another gorgeous equipage drew up
before the inn, and the great mer-
chant, with his wife and family, de-
scended from IT, The whole town
gathered around him and cried "Wie
Geht's7" and the leading business men
embraced each other and wept for
pure joy. Herr Grandson was moved
to tears by the warmth OF his recep-
ton. He had come to stay this time,
he said His heart had been aching
for Heidelberg wherever he roamed.
He had made up his mind to establish
vine and figtree among his good
friends. even II his hat were shot full
of holes every time he went to the
post Office.
His. wife. dignified and beautiful.
was less enthusiastic, but she seemed
pleased to get back. The children had
grown into fine young spr'ngalds, and
the herr's first action was to engage
a learned professor to act as their tu-
tor. The family secured another fine
house, and settled down to the fami-
liar life. Grandissons popularity In
the town increased. He was 80 free
with his money, and he had such
coolies Of Il; he was such a good talk
er. and knew so many amusing sto-
ries; he was so deep in great CONNER
cial affairs. and so thoroughly posted
on all matters touching the wars, that
his company was a delight to every
body.
AS in other days, he made occasion
al trips from town, and he never took
anybody into his confidence as to the
nature of those trips. 1t was assumed
that he was looking after his business
interests
Thus things moved along, and
Grandson had become a town insti-
tuition, pointed to with pride, and IL
seemed probable that he would live to
a green old age and die at last COW
cred with honors.
But one day the learned professor
who was teaching the children asked
for a few private words with Frau
Grandson.
Your husband is away on one of
his business trips?" he inquired, when
they we're alone.
YES" she replied, and her eyes ex
pressed anxiety; why do you ask?"
II have a friend who is connected
with the secret service" said the pro.
lessor, land he asked me 80 many
questions about your husband this
morning, and about when he is ex-
pected back, that thought 1t best to
| give you a warning"
Greatly agitated, the frau dismissed
the professor and at once wrote let
ter which she mailed in great haste.
The letter was opened by the authorl-
ties in the post office. and, by reason
of the contents, they were enabled to
trace down and arrest Herr Grandis.

WILL REPAIR FIRE DAMAGES
Five Thousand Dollar Loss to Ward
and Pinkham Is Covered

Men began the work of clearing
away the wreckage of the burned
roof of the Pinkham building to-
day. The tin covering which was
the only part of the roof left will
be removed and a temporary roof
will be built for protection against
storm until more definite plans
can be made for reconstructing the
third story.
Mr.. Pinkham estimates the dam
age to the building at about $500
and that to his stock of goods at
nearly $500 The entire loss is COW
cred by insurance and adjustors
will be here the last of the week
to settle.
The building occupied by the
Pinkham store is owned by Mrs. C.
H. Pinkham and she plans to i'm
prove it when the repairs are made.
A. M. Ward had not estimated
the damage to his building but it
will amount to several hundred
dollars at least. This loss is also COW
cred by insurance. Mr.. Ward has
not yet decided whether he will re-
build the burned part of his build
ing or not.

Obituary-William Rowe

After a year of failing health
William Rowe, one of the county,
well known and respected citizens,
died at 1880 a. m. Nov. 23, 1916, at
his home in Hope. Although realiz-
ing for some time that there was
no hope of his recovery his strong
will and determination prolonged
his life many days. When at last he
realized that the struggle was
nearing the end he was ready and
willing and yielded to the final
summons, happy in the assurance
of home with the Master to whom
he had through life been a dutiful
servant.
Mr. Rowe was a member of the
Methodist Episcopal church for SIS
years and was consistent and
faithful member, always willing and
ever ready to do his full part in the
service of the Master.
Mr.. Rowe was born in Camborne,
Cornwall, England June 4, 1888;
died Nov. 23, 1916, aged 83 years,
5 months and 10 days. He was mar
ried to Mary Jane Tonkin April 6,
1861, in Ducktown, Tenn. The |
wife after over a half cen
fury of welded life, is left DESC
ate. Five children were born to
hem, William j. and James, both
Of whom have preceded their faith
er to the other side; Mary E. of
Hope, Mrs. R. H. Seeds of Abilene,
Mrs. L. ]. Smith, Council Bluffs,
owa.
The deceased came from England
o this country So years ago, locat-
ng in California, later moving to
Tennessee, then to Illinois, coming
o Dickinson county in 1879, locat-
ng on farm north of Dillon. A
ew years ago he gave up farming
md moved to town.
Funeral services were held at
Hope Sunday afternoon at the M.
Q. church, in charge of the Masonic
odge of Hope, Kansas. Rev. Os
lorne of Kansas City, former pas
or, officiated, assisted by Rev. Nc
Proud The Masonic burial service
was held at the grave. The large
attendance and the beautiful floral
offerings evidenced the esteem and
in which the deceased was
held by all.

They do some things better
abroad. England began buying
wheat and butter and eggs from the
United States last July. 1t bought
everything in sight and then took
charge of the material and fixed the
price Of food so that the public
could not be robbed. AS a result,
according to the New York Times,
food prices are higher in New York
than in London and food and other
necessities of life are going higher
in this country constantly.

The Kansas City banks have
nearly one hundred million dollars
more on deposit than one years ago
and only 81 million dollars more in
loans Most of it comes from the
country banks-the wheat belt and
the oil country and the problem
just now is what to do with it,
Facing the end of the war most
people are inclined to go slow and
not branch out too much and
money is not in demand Contrary
to most persons belief a borrowing
country is the really successful and
thriving country in the best sense.
Again, referring to 1.-THE ex-Presi
dents club" Mr.. Taft at Cleveland
said: "The two living members of
the club held a meeting last sum-
mer. the first for some time. They
had not of recent years been able
to agree on much. But they were
in their desire to elect
a new member to the club. They
failed. He is still on the waiting
list" Not to say, the watchful wait
ing list.
