while Smith could not be compelled
to appear he had previously promised
that he would tell everything to the
grand jurors.
Burned Body Still Mystery
Meanwhile the most mysterious
element in the case—the identity of
the charred body found in Smith's
truck at the time of his disappear-
ance, remained unsolved. The body
was buried as that of Smith but later
was exhumed at the request of in-
surance companies.
Mrs. Smiths statement, the offi-
cers said, cleared up other angles of
the case, including a bigamous mar-
riage by her husband to Pauline
Shaw, an 18-year-old Elgin, Kan.,
girl. The authorities said that Smith
admitted the illegal marriage.

not large, and many of which have
been reduced, are to take care of street

Proposed Bond Iasue Cited
McRill called attention to the pro-
posed $2,630,000 bond issue, which
would provide sewage disposal plants,
sewer and wterworks extensions, and
a city hall.

Mrs. Smith had signed a statement;
admitting that her husband a disap-
pearance was part of a plan whereby ;
ahe wax to collect his 880,000 in life
insurance policies.
Smith, who once was Farmer-Labor
candidate for governor of Iowa, was
held in jail at Adel, while his wife
was in custody of stats agents at Des
Moines.
Wife to Get Money
“Under our plan." Mrs Smith was ,
quoted in the statement as saying,
"I was to collect the insurance or ac-
cept it when the insurance company
paid it and then meet John when he
got in communication with me, which
might be one to two years."
Smith's whereabouts remained un-
known until last June 23. when he
Grimly. in silence. I stuff in all I can. I mean at least to be full. Then,
as soon as I can. I make my way out.
In the lobby is the servant in the dress suit I reach down my things.
"We should have had you up the line too, you lacquered ape!" I spit. "You
» and the whole bunch here!" Then I slam the door.
Wolf has waited for me outside the house. He leaps up on me. "Come.
Wolf." I say and suddenly know that it was not the affair with the chop
that made me feel so bitter; but the fact that the same vapid, self-satistied
spirit as of old should still be lording it here and giving itself airs-Come,
Wolf." I repeat "Those are not our sort. Come, let's go to our pals. It's
better there, even if they do belch and eat with their hands. Come!”
We trot along, the dog and I: we run as as hard as we can, faster and
faster, panting, barking; we run like mad, with shining eyes—To the devil
with them all!—But we live, eh. Wolf? We live!”
Lodwig Breyer, Albert Trosske and I are on our way to school. Leesons
are to begin again.
We were students at the Teachers college when the war came, but no
special examination was granted to us The men of the grammar school
who went fared much better. Most of them were able to take a special ex-
amination. either before they enlisted or when they came home on leave.
The remainder, who did neither the one nor the other, have now to start
their schooling again like the rest of us. Karl Broger is one of these.
We pass by the cathedral The green sheets of copper that once covered
the spire have been taken away and replaced by stripe of gray felt. They
look mildewed and shabby, to that the church has almost ths atr of a
factory. The sheets at copper were melted down to make shells
in a winding alley to the west of the cathedral stands the two-storied
Teachers college. Almost opposite is the grammar school; behind it the
river and the embankment with the lime trees. Before we enlisted, these
buildings made up our world. After that, it was the trenches. Now we are
here again. But this is no longer our world; the trenches ousted it.
In front of the grammar school we meet our old chum, Georg Ra he
He was a lieutenant and had charge of a company, but on leave he only
got drunk and loafed about, and took no thought for his finals. So now he
is going back Into upper second again, where already he has been twice
left behind
"Is it true. Georg." I ask him, “that you've become such a crack Latin
scholar up the line?"
He laughs and stalks off on his long legs to the grammar school.
"Watch out you don't get a bad conduct mark." I shout after him.
Ha was an airman for the last six months and brought down four Eng-
Hohmen. But I don't believe he can still demonstrate Pythagoras s theorem.
Across the Forehead a Scar—
One Eye Is Glass, Nose Is Gone
We go on to the teachers’ college. The whole lane is teeming with unJ-
forms. Faces suddenly loom up that one has almost forgotten; names one
has not heard of for years. Hana Walldorf hobbles along. We carried him
out with a shattered knee in November, ’17. His leg has been amputated at
the hip: now he wean a heavy,’ jointed, wooden leg and thumps along on
it noisily. Kurt Leipold appears and introduces himself laughingly: "Godfrey
of the Iron Hand, Gentlemen!" He has an artificial right arm Then some
one comes out at the gate and says in a gurgling voice: "You don't recog-
niss me perhaps eh?”.
I study the face, if such it csn still be called Across the forehead is a
broad, red scar that runs down into the left eye. There the flesh has grown
over, so that the eye lies buried, deep and small. But it is there still. The
right eye is fixed; that is glass. The nose is clean gone. a black patch

Inspector Loses: Plea For
Early Ruling on Appeal.
Application of B. C. Langston, state
livestock inspector stationed in Okla-
homa City, to advance hearing on an
appeal from a restraining order to
prevent him making inspections in
Oklahoma county, was denied Tues-
day by the state supreme court.
The W. H. Butcher Packing Co.,
Oklahoma City, asked that Langston
be enjoined from making inspections
of livestock for slaughter. The com-
pany's application for an injunction
was denied in district court, from
which decision It appealed May 11.
