Arcanuna Head T'e1egrapts
''Order Is Soluent''
Supreme Regent Asserts That Action
of Court Naming a Receiver Was
Not Warranted by Facts.

Members of the Royal Arcanum in
Kenosha took hope today that the
financial troubles of the order would be
settled without loss to the members
and with the maintaining of the in
surance contracts now in force. 1t was
based on telegram from New York
quoting the statement of Supreme Re
gent Samuel N. Hoag, who declared
that the order was solvent and
that the naming of receiver was
without warrant in consideration of
the facts in the case
"Our order is both commercially and
actuarially SOLVENT he said, "with
all death claims promptly paid and
with a cash surplus of four million
dollars over and above all known
obligations. Our general counsel and
legal representative will be in Boston
this week to ask a vacation of the or

Francis Vincent Lockbaum
Dies at Home In Pleasant
Prairie After a Night
of Agony.
PLAYING ABOUT A STRAW FIRE

Francis Vincent Lockbaum, almost
five years of age and the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Jacob Lockbaum, residing
just west of Dexter's Corners in the
town of Pleasant Prairie, died at the
fanny home at an early hour this
morning as result of burns which he
received just after five CLOCK Monday
afternoon while playing about a burn
ing straw stack on the farm. The
little boy died after night Of deep
est agony as many portions of his
little body had been burned to a crisp
by the cruel flames.
Monday afternoon the father of the
little fellow had gone out into field
some distance from the farm house to
burn up straw stack. The straw had
been nearly burned up when the father
went to another part of the farm to
look after other work. A bunch of
happy children of the neighborhood
were attracted to the fire. Francis
wore a little velvet coat and he was
the merriest of the company of children
in the play about the farm yard. While
Francis was running about the blazing
straw stack he got too close to the fire
and the little velvet coat caught fire.
The other children were terror stricken
and they ran to the house for help.
When older people came and dragged
the little boy away from the fire his
entire body had been burned. He was
tenderly carried to the house and ply
sicians called. They worked during the
night to ease the pain of the little fell
low, realizing that there was no chance
of saving his life. The little boy re-
manned conscious until death came to
ease his sufferings with the early
morning.
Little Francis was born at the Lock
baum home on July Z, 1912. He was
a general favorite in the community
and his tragic death has caused I'M
speakable sorrow. His mother, who
before her marriage was Miss Celia
Mcnamara of Russell, was Frustrated on
account of the death of the little boy.
The funeral service will be held aon
Thursday morning and the remains
will be brought to Kenosha for inter-
ment at st. James cemetery.
