Terms reasonable. Only a small cash payment necessary, W. K. SEASE ii mm STARTLIKG PROOF. By OSCAR COX. [Copyright, 1909, by American Prass Asso ciation.] The great scientific investigator and the great financier talked together. "What Is death, doctor?" asked the latter. "I don't know. Formerly we con sidered death the separation of animal and spiritual life, occurring when the heart ceased to beat. Now we know that the body lives on after that period. Tbere are two causes of bodily death or corruption?viz, microbes and self digestion. Microbes cannot net if not permitted to enter, und self diges tion cannot take place except through the agency of water. Exclude the mi crobes, exhaust the water, and. in my opinion, the body may be kept alive in definitely. In that case spiritual deatb may be eliminated." A year after this announcement Jon athan Starkweather, the financier, feel ing ill, sent for Dr. Evan Carroll, the man who made it But before the doctor's arrival the patient had died of heart failure. Carroll produced an or der signed by Starkweather twelve months before for the body. Arthur Starkweather, the deceased's, oldest son. knew of the order, respected It, and the body was transferred to Dr. Carroll's laboratory. Arthur Starkweather Inherited his father's fortune, but by the will, in case of his death without issue, it was to go to Dr Carroll in trust to endow an Institute for scientific re search. Two years after getting pos session of the property Arthur Stark weather died a bachelor. Dr. Carroll at once put In a claim for tbe estate on behalf of his institute. Innumerable Starkweathers sprang up to contest the will. A meeting was called, a committee appointed and counsel employed. A month later counsel informed the committee that there was no doubt of their ability to break the will, owing to a flaw in the deed of trust. The trus tees' attorueys were so far convinced of this that they made an offer to compromise. The offer was submitted to a meeting of tbe heirs-at-law anrJ unanimously decliued. Dr. Carroil, who was present at the meeting, arose and slated that there was some doubt about .lonathuu Stark weather being dead and he might be capable of making another will. All were surprised at what was consid ered an absurd bluff on the part of a man who stood at the head of scien tific research in America. Shouts of "Proof!" "Produce him!* "Show your hand!" wore heard from every quar ter. The doctor left the meeting with out reply, but in a few days every member of the heirs' committee was Invited by him 10 present himself at a certain hour of a certain daj* at his laboratory. Upon arrival they were ushered into a dimly lighted unfurnished room, in the center of which was a gigantic test tube similar to those, much small er, commonly used by experimenters. In the tube was what resembled a skeleton, though it was rather like a strip of dried cartilage. The skull, covered with shriveled tlesh. skin and hair, was tbe only feature that sug gested a human being. The tube was hermetically sealed and occupied a space twelve feet square by seven feet high, inclosed in plate glass. A steam pipe appeared coming up through the tloor. Dr. Carroll and several assistants in sterilized gowns entered the ihclosure. The tempera ture was noted and a jet of steam lurued on. Then the sealed end of the tube was opened, and after a time the cartilaginous figure began to as sume the appearance of a starved hu man being. Soon after Dr. Carroll removed it from the tube and placed it in a cushioned easy chair. The figure finally opened its eyes, but Immediately closed them. Then, open ing them again, it fixed them on the committee. There was something so un canny In the stare of the corpselike body that several of the committee, unable to stand it. left the room. At this point Dr. Carroll asked the patient how be felt. lie opened his Hps to speak, but the only sound that came was such as is produced by a talking doll. It was very distressing, and more of I lie committee went out. Dr. Carroll opened the door of the glass Inclcsure and asked the commit tee if they recognized Jonathan Stark weather. Several coramitteemen ad-1 mltted that they did. but didn't wish to see any more of him. whereupon the doctor took from bis pocket a will, properly drawn, and banded it to j Starkweather with a stylographic pen. Starkweather signed it. and it was wit nessed by the assistants. Such is tbe story whispered among the younger experimenters at the Starkweather Institute with reference to the withdrawal of the suit to break the Starkweather will mi payment of $100.000 lo the heirs of the $1,000.000 left for the institution. There is one element of the story, however, that casts a doubt upon Its troth; Nothing Is said ?beul what became of the re mams, (bail ??!? alive, of Starkweather <>m Dr Carroll's theory he might now be walkiug around. Some say the doctor still has him In the big test lube and is waiting for the develop ment of other processes t" bring him back to permanent life. Surely the interests ..f scientific research would not be injured by a frank avowai ~f the farts. Rev, f. W. Williamson's Letter. Rev. I. W. Williamson, Hunting ton, W.

[Copyright, 1809, by American Press Asso ciation.J June, as everybody knows, Is a de lightful month. A young man was walking on a suburban road ot? a June morning. The heavens were blue, without a single fleecy dash. The air \yas dry and warm, an atmosphere that accords with the hum of Insects and the occasional piping of a bird. He stopped and leaned upon a neat fence. Within were spacious and highly cultivated grounds. Directly before him was a flower garden partly hidden by little clumps of low trees. He was a flower lover. He coveted especially some beautiful Jacqueminot roses he saw within. Surely the own er of the place would not grudge him one or two. The house stood back within a grove. No one was about. He felt again the glow of boyhood in stolen fruit. To his right was a gate not the main gate?a little one for side entrance. He went and stood by the gate and looked and fell before temp tation. With a quickly beating heart he opened It. stepped briskly In. picked a rose and was -about to retire when he saw a bed of American Beauties losing themselves in a leafy recess. It occurred to him to gain the recess be fore doing any more stealing. Hur rying into It. he ran up against a girl sitting on a rustic bench with a lapful of roses. She uttered an exclamation of sudden fright. "Pardon me." he said. "I?I"? The ghl said nothing. She was try ing to regain her equanimity. Instead of looking as if she hnd surprised a thief she looked as If she bad been surprised doing something she was ashamed of. "I am very fond of flowers," he added. "I love flowers too." "So I judge by the roses In your lap." "It was .wrong to pluck them, but I couldn't help It." "Why wrong to pluck that to which I'm sure you are welcome?" She looked at him Inquiringly. She was herself a trespasser. It occurred to her that he was the owner. "Then I may keep them?" He saw the situation. He, a thief, had stumbled on a thief who thought him the possessor of the place. Put ting bis hand on his heart, he bowed low and said: "All of them and more." He broke off a dozen and threw them in her lap. "Oh, how kind of you!" She was very pretty and. dressed as she was In sheer white, formed a love ly contrast with the green background and the roses in her lap. "If I were an artist," he said, "I would wish for no better subject." "Won't you show me your place?" she asked. "Certainly, but may I not sit for a fewvniinutes In this entrancing bower?" She moved aside and made room for him on the bench. "I am fortunate." she said, "In find ing one so lenient with me, a tres passer." "Rather I welcome another choice flower in my garden." A few quick steps crunching the gravel and a gentleman of middle age entered the recess. He stood looking at the pair in surprise. The girl glanced at her companion, expecting him to excuse her presence to one whom she thought was another of the occupants of the place. He did not speak. He was hunting for a story to cover the situation. "This gentleman." she said to the newcomer, "has been so kind as to give me some roses." "You are quite welcome to them," said he who was the real owner. "I?i knew you would have done as much yourself," said the man tres passer, coloring. The owner took in the situation?at least enough of it?to give him a cue. He fancied the trespasser had brought the girl there and yielded to a tempta tion to give her the roses. "Would you like to see my place?" lie said. The girl gave her companion tres passer a surprised look. "Why, I thought you lived here!" The owner came to the rescue of a fellow man. "He Is always welcome here," he said. "Oh, a friend?" said the girl. "An esteemed friend," the owner put in. "Come, we will walk through the place." The girl gathered up her roses, and they were led through the place, the owner calling their attention to this and that rose, tree or plant. When they had seen it all, be asked them In for a glass of wine and a biscuit. This offer was declined, and they were con ducted to the gate. "Haven't seen much of you lately, old man," said the host at parting. "Are you going to desert us entirely?" "Will you be at home this evening?" "Yes; happy to see you." "I'll call." When they were alone the girl said. "How nice it was that I was caught by two such nice men." "Oh, we men can always depend upon one an?.ther. Any guest of mine in that place is a guest of my friend." "Delightful! 1 bid you good morning. Thank you very much foi the roses." "Don't mention it" In the evening the trespasser called on l lie owner. "Yon are not only a gentleman." he said: "you are a man riiiil a brother." "There Is honor ameug thieves," re plied the In t. "and in such matters we in :i are all thieves. Will you take yours dry or sweet ?" "Dry. thank you." Then the ^nest told thn story.
