David Mitchell* A Farmer Living Near Union* Has Remarkable Experience. To have a tooth in the root of one's tongue for nearly fourteen years without knowing of its presence, and without it having done any serious injury is the very remarkable experience of Mr. David Mitchell, a farmer who lives in this county several miles east of this city. Mr. Mitchell, who is about forty years of age, was shot with a .38 calibre pistol in the left jaw about fourten years ago, the ball knocking out one of his teeth, known as the Bicustid, the ball driving it into the center of Sis tongue, where both the ball and tooth lodged. About three months after he was shot, feeling something hard in his tongue, he went to a physician for examination* and the doctor extracted a bullet, thinking that he had gotten everything. The wound healed completely, and after thirteen and a half years had elapsed, or just a few days ago, he again felt a hard substance in his tongue and came to consult a physician here, and Dr. D. H. Montgomery, on his investigation found it was tne same oia tooin taai was lost fourteen years ago. The tooth was extracted easily and without much pain, and now Mr. Mitchell is preserving it as an unusual souvenir.?Union Progress. Preacher Makes Fortune. Chicago, April 16.?A formal real estate transfer just made in the/routine of the county recorder's office reveals the story ~ of a Chicago minister of the gospel who has gained a fortune of $500,000 during his spare time. Four years ago he left Chicago with slender means, to nurse a daughter back to health. To-day he is the owner of landed estates and an exclusive metropolitan apartment building. The hero of this fairy tale of fi nance and religion is the Rev. Richard A. Morley, a Methodist Episcopal pastor, who was stationed for several years in Chicago and Oak Park church. The story arose in the purchase by the minister of an apart- * ment hotel for $400,000. In 1904, Mr. Morley, in an effort to save his daughter from tuberculosis, exchanged pulpits with a minister at Las Vegas, N. M. Shortly afterward he purchased a ranch near by at a tax sale and this was the beginning of his property. He bought more land and sold it at a large profit, and within two years was owner of a tract now worth $210,000. Branching out further, be purchased a thousand-acre farm near Kansas City, one in Wisconsin and .two farms in Illinois. All this time he has never missed a Sunday in his pulpit nor a Wednesday evening prayer meeting. When he first removed to the West, he says, he did not dream of entering Into business transactions. \ IIpeaS^ Mules, Buggies, Wagons, Harness, and all so ;ger business this year than ever before.
