AGED MAN DESCRIBES
INSURANCE PLIGHT

BY a Reader.
I am disclosing a condition that
illustrates my own plight and prob
ably that Of many others in losing
ones life insurance at the age OF
n.
I took a straight life insurance
policy in one Of the old COM
panies, rated at the time as one
of the strongest in the coun-
try. I carried that several years.
The company merged with large
western company. I kept on paying
twelve years; then, at SO, I was in
duced by an agent for another com
pany to take out policy that would
De paid up at the age Of 10, which
proved to be all right.
Now, when I found at the age Of
SO I could get that kind Of policy,
I asked the other company 10
change the policy I had with it to
one like had taken with the other,
that would be paid up at the age of
10. 1t was changed for a con-
siderable advance n premium.
reached the age of 10 and then re-
ceived the shock Of getting notice
OF premium due the same as ever.
I, Of course. thought there was a
mistake and took the policy TO the
other company that wrote the term
insurance and was informed that
would have to pay the premium as
long as I lived.
Then, to make matters worse, the
company has been reorganized and

KINGAN SUIT NEWS
WINS APPROVAL

BY Union Man.
Thanks for the story about Tom
Smiths suit against Kingan & Co.
Look as I would in the other news
papers, which apparently are given
over entirely to the interests of the
employers, I could find nothing
about the suit. Perhaps they didn't
think it was news, Ell?
We of union labor shall be look
ing forward with a great deal of
interest to see what happens in this
suit. We hope Mr.. Smith will win,
of course. If he does, a great blow
will have been struck for the unions.
Don't be scared by the Tory tao
tics of your more conservative con-
temporaries.. Keep up the good
work.

EDINBURG RESIDENT
PRAISES TOWN

BY Mrs. Nina Richards.
In answer to Main Street OBJ
server, will say there must be
something wrong with him or her. I
have lived in Edinburg thirty two
years, have been a home owner
some fifteen years and have seen
very little in that time to kick about.
I believe we have weathered the
depression far better than some of
the larger towns. Of course, Edin-
burg is a small town with small
town ways, and we love those ways.
We are proud of our school, our
churches, our several factories and
mills. Proud of our farmer friends,
and their industry, and our corn
belt which is known all over the
state.
We have the best drinking water
to be had in the state; we have gas
and electricity. We have very little
real suffering among our poor in the
winter. Most of them are cared for
by their more fortunate neighbors,
few having to apply to the trustee
for help.
Most of them receiving help from
the trustee are sent by our neighbor
state on the south.
So. l am for dear old Edinburg,
with its kind friends and beautiful
homes.
Of course. If Observer likes city
ways best there are twenty-five
trains out of town daily, several
buses and good roads for hitch
hiking.
will stay where I can get credit
from friends if I need it; where
can afford to own a little home and
have happiness, and may God pro-
tect us from grafters.

j. s. BISHOPS TAKE
S1,0DD,0DO TOPOPE
Six Archbishops and Three
Cardinals at Vatican
During 1884.
By the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
VATICAN CITY. December %
American bishops presented to Pope
Plus more than $1,000,000 in gifts
from their dioceses during 1894, the
quinquennial year, when high Ameri-
can prelates were required to visit the
Vatican to give an accounting of their
work.
Prelates here made this estimate
based on the fact that during the
year the Pope received three Ameri-
can cardinals, Mundelein, Chicago;
Dougherty, Philadelphia, and O'Con-
nell OF Boston; 6 archbishops and so
bishops.
Most American bishops coming to
Rome take up a collection in their
dioceses before their departure, and
bring the Pope substantial check to
be used in the administrative work
OF the church or for charity.
This last quinquennial year was
marked by an important innovation.
One American cardinal, Mundelein,
one archbishop and nine bishops were
received by the Pope, not in the vati-
can. but at Castelgandolfo, where the
Pope went for his vacation-the first
time any Pope had spent the hot
months outside the Vatican since 1870.
In fact. Bishop Bernard J. Mahoney
Sioux Falls. S. OAK, was the first
bishop received by the Pope at Castel-
gandolfo. Immediately after him on
the same morning came three other
American bishops-Joseph F.. Rum
mel, Omaha, Nebr.; Jules B. Jean
mard, Lafayette, La and Richard O.
Gerow, Natchez, Miss.

second WIFE,,
Police said Happel confessed to
killing and dismembering the body Of
his second wife and to shooting to
death Henry w. Meyer, Missouri
farmer.
Happel's confession, detectives said,
contained reference to the death of
his first wife, and the statement that
he married Mrs. Rosabelle Happel
only a few weeks later. Rosabelle's
first husband, Happel Is alleged to
have told them, had died only a short
time before.
Three aienists have been assigned
to examine Happel.

quirk of fate. Take the case of young jeff
Roder of Seattle, Wash.
JEFF Is one Of these smart lads who myste-
riously understand every detail of q radios in
ner workings. He had a shop to repair radios.
But he had much competition and didn't keep
very busy, so he had time on his hands. For
. hobby, he started making treasure finder"
He has it now. 1t is a contraption like
suitcase, with a handle, and a barrel hoop at
tached to the bottom. Radio earphones con-
meet with it as he carries it around.
Whenever that hoop passes over buried
treasure the earphones make a loud buzz
He tested it, burying gold watches, rings and
coins.
The only catch" is that it also buzzes when
it passes over an old buried tin can, or rusted
scrap iron. Jeff's hobby cost him nearly 500
to build but ne soon put it to some use, at that.
He got jobs with builders and plumbers, locat-
ing buried water MAINS sewer pipes and such,
thereby saving much trouble You never know
when hobby is going to be an asset, says JEFF.
Rolla Clark of st. Louis developed an amaz-
ing hobby which reminds you somehow of Mr..
Palmers' having to do with queer things that
animals swallow. Only Mr.. Clark wasn't in
terested in animals
He swallows the queer things himself
After some years of incidental practice. he
can now eat two or three razor blades all of a
china saucer. broken light globe and any odds
and ends that you might offer him. such as
fishhooks tacks nails and watches
There are thousands of witnesses to his un-
believable feat Don't ask how he does it.
Maybe it's legerdemain land magic stunts do,
indeed, form many fascinating hobby, but
Mr.. Clark has been X-rayed, TO show the hard
ware in his stomach. He won't tell.
A RTHUR WEBER, formerly a Y. M. C. A.
physical director in Pittsburgh, took up
"magic" a hobby, and soon found himself
in constant demend as an entertainer But
his speciality became not deception or sleight-
of-hand, but humor.
