WU FEUD MAKES HERMIT Eccentric Old Man Lets Property Go to Ruin After Family Quar rel—Known as “The Bear." SPRING I.AKK, MICH. Au* 2 Stricken with paralysis and unable to utter n word. William H. Hell, pioneer lumberman, one of the wealthiest men In the village and known all over Ottawa County hk an eccentric. Ilea at the point of death In hi* ram shackle hut on the shore of Spring Lake, hi* condition mourned by none save a relative who arrived recently from Portland. Oreg . and a few sym pathetic neighbors. His father came to Michigan from t'anada m 1564, when the lumber business was at Its height, to take charge of the large interest* that fell to him ihrough the tragic drowning of his brother-in-law, James Barber, one of the first men to engage In the nimher business In this section of the State, With his younger brother, Edward B. Bell, who died recently in Wash ington, where he was acting as offi cer in toe Capitol Guard** by up- pointmen; of Senator Smith, William H Hell . ospered until 1871, when the hrotheis quarreled and the mill was shut ciown, never to run again, In spite of the effort* of business nego tiates and relatives to effect a recon ciliation What liie quarrel was about no one has ever known It was always « sealed book with both of them, anti some believe it was the questions put to him on this point that caused the elder Bell to shut himself in his home, close the prosperous store adjoining it, and permit everything to fall Into decay. Edward stalled out to make his own wav In the world and spent many years in the employ of The Grand Rapids II* raid and The Even ing Press. He was getting old by this time The world had been un kind to him. and his Washington ap pointment by Senator Smith tamo a* a godsend. Offsrs for Mill Refused. Offer after offer was made to his eccentric brother for the mill Itself the wagons, the old boats stored with in it, the valuable machinery, but William Hell turned a deaf ear to all of them Even after lumbering was on the decline, and the raw' material had to be shipped in by rail, he wu- offered $9,500 for the mill, but turned the offer down and drove the insis tent buyer from his door. He kept everything. The horses grew old and fat and died off one one. without doing a stroke of work sfter the closing of the mill. When he last of these was gone Hell shut himself up for good In his house, and only appeared to carry home provi sions. He had no intimates and but few acquaintances. From his long winter sojourns In his barricaded house he earned the ti tle of “The near,” and In spite of his *ata! Illness the natives stlJl mention him by that name. For the last 40 years he has lived the life of a hermit a« completely as If he were buried in the mountains. He never ventured In society, al though nt the time of his quarrel he was one of the most popular and flu est-looking men In Spring Lake He never ventured to the polls. He lived on the scantiest of food, and was never seen to smile. On warm days he would take his rustic seat in one of the apple tree* overlooking the lake and sit for hours viewing his de caving buildings and gazing up the splendid view along Spring Lake The old hermit's hours are num bered. and with his death It is ex pected the ruins will he cleared away and the property sold for building purposes. Be-1 View, as the place is called, is one of the prettiest points on the lake, and many wealthy re sorters living in the locality have been waiting for the old man's death to submit their bids on the property Father Objects to Pardon for His Son Youth Is Serving Life Sentence In Ohio for Having Killed His Mother. COLL’MB r8. OHIO, Aug 2- Be cause of statements made by hit fa ther to Governor Cox it is understood that there will be no pardon for Dun Harvey Hazel, aged 23, serving a life sentence in the Ohio penitentiary for the murder of his mother. Hazel \va s declared innocent by the State Roar.1 of Pardons. He was convicted In 190R. Hardly had the recommendation been placed in the Governor's hands before the boy's father. John F.

Assistant Secretary of State Author of Idea to Honor Memory of America’s Finder. Assistant Secretary ofg State Os borne suggests that on tne first ship passing through the Panama Canal the bone* of Columbus rhall be car ried from ocean to ocean. It is an idea which will appeal to the senti mental sympathies of all the world. The obtaining of the bones of Co lumbus for this trip Is thl next ques tion, and it is only after a trip to Santo Domingo that the Secre^ry makes this suggestion While on this Journey he saw the crypt in which the bone.-* are kept, and hereby hangs an interesting tale of the adventures of the bones of thl* most adventurous of men. On the day before his death in Valadolid, May 20, 1506, he added a codicil to his will In which he re quested that his bones be buried in some part of the New World which [he had discovered. This was not, rhowever, done for many years after ward. Hie body was first deposited In the Convent of the Franciscans at Valadolid. and in 1583 transferred to the grotto of the Convent of the Car thusians of Santa Maria at Seville Meanwhile the gr*at Cathedral ot | Santo Domingo had been started in 1514. It was completed in 1540, and some time between 1541 and 1549 his body was taken to Santo Domingo, together with the body of Diego Colon, his son. who died in LV/6 Toe Spaniards had taken the other leaden coffin in the previous century. This little closet was separated from the other by a wall five inches thick, and was larger than the outer crypt. It contained a well-preserved leaden coffin, eight inches high, fif teen inches long and seven inches wide. From inscriptions on this leaden box it was deduced that the bones of the real Columbus had not been taken away In 1795, but must have remained here, while the body of his son was removed. The then Achblshop of Ban Do mingo, Grope Roque Cocchia, an nounced this important discovery and made an examination of the box in the presence of a large number of representatives of the Government and resident consuls of other nations. All were convinced that these were the true remains of Columbus, and that those removed by the Spaniards must have been those of his son, Diego Colon. In the course of the investigation a third crypt was found, containing a leaden coffin with the inscription, ‘ El Almirante Don Luis Colon Duquo de Jamaica Marques de Veragua,” plainly the remains of Columbus’ grandson.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2.—Bugs and plant diseases that expect to stow away in the mails and thus gain en try to this country to raise Cain with the fanning interests are now con fronted at the Department of Agri culture with a cul-de-sac from which there is no exit except through the crematory. The new safeguard is the “quaran tine room " that has just been estab lished in the office of seed and plant introduction It has worked only once in the few days since it was built. The quarantine room is a harmless looking structure. It is just a little glass-inclosed cage about 8 by 12 feet 1 in one of the big offit> rooms of the new building on Fourteenth street. It is bug-proof and glass inclosed, except for wire netting over the door and windows forty-mesh netting almost as close as cheese cloth and too small to allow the passage of anything much bigger than a typhoid germ.

TO CO-OPERATE 0NLAND CREDITS Plan Is Expected to Greatly Ben efit Farmers of Big Agri cultural State. TOPEKA, KANS, Aug Z.—The bankers of Kansan are not going to wait for the report of the Federal Commission studying the syatem of farm credits abroad. A committee of the banker* is now- drawing up a plan of co-operation which is expected to meet the needs of the farmers in the way of land credits The bankers believe that the first idea should be to develop the land as much as possible in the way of pro viding farm experts, simplification of marketing, seed selection, soil Im provement and crop rotation, and the expansion of cattle raining and dairy ing. Kansas is so largely an agricultural State that the bulk of the banking business is with farmers. Naturally it is to the Interest of the bankers to develop to as great an extent as pos sible the State’** farm resource*, and, In developing them, devise a system of credits which will be to the farm ers what an elastic currency system is to the banks. In several counties bankers have taken the lead In organising county agricultural societies to provide for the service* of a farm expert and the committee which Is now at work on the co-operation program Is com posed of bankers from counties where these farm experts now are at work. These farm demonstrators already have shown that their work Is the most profitable investment the bank ers and farmers could make. In Leavenworth County, which was the first to employ an investigator and adviser, hundreds of farmers have changed their methods on the advice of the expert, and the results, as re ported to the County Agricultural So ciety. already are apparent in the way of increased yields of fields or great improvement In other ways. The State Banking Department, working in conjunction with the bankers, will have drawn up any new laws that are necessary to further the plane of co-operation.

P Claxton, United State* Commission er of Education, said. "More than 65 per cent of our children are educated in the rural schools and they form a large part of our population in the cities. Prob ably no city produces as many citi zens as it kills, and the modern civ ilization. with its complex problems and its nerve strain, really eats chil dren in the city." He advocated giving the rural teacher a home and a tract of land. body of his grandson, Luis Colon, was also taken to Santo Domingo after his death in 1572, but there is no record of the precise date of the transfer. The bones of Columbus h^d been deposited in tho sanctuary to the right of the main altar of the Cathedral, where they lay undis turbed for many years. Moved th* Wrong Body. Toward the close of the eighteenth century political events compelled Spain to cede Hispaniola, as this part of her possessions in the New World was then called, to France, in accord ance with the treaty of July 22. 1795. But the national pride of the Span iards would not permit them to allow the bones of Columbus to lie in the possession of the alien On thie ac count, in December, 1795, the dkch at the right of the altar of the Ca thedral of San Domingo, in which tradition placed the body of Colum bus. was opened, and the leaden cof fin found in a crypt there was taken to Havana. There was a heavy leaden cotfin outside of the smaller one. all gilded over, but marked by no sign what ever. and this was taken with great military and religious ceremonies and placed by the aide of the large altar of the Cathedral of Havana, January l 19, 1796 In 1822 this place was marked by a stone bearing a relief, portrait of Columbus, for they thought i they had the body of Columbus there, ! Cathedral Plan Altered, Investigation has shown mat the plan of the cathedral in San Domingo ! rad been materially altered between! 1541 and 1795, which probably led to ; the error, for when 82 years later: some laborers were repairing the floor! of the sanctuary' of the Cathedral of i San Domingo (September 10. 1877) i they stumbled upon a little crypt to; j the righ. of the targe altar, between j the wall and the crypt from which the bu» in their cathedral in Havana, so in the autumn of 1890 a special ex amination was made. On January 11, 1891, all was laid before the Minister of the Interior of San Domingo and the various resident consuls from dif ferent countries. The box was then sealed up by the Archbishop, the dust placed in a crystal vase, and a silver plate put on the old leaden coffin, so that it could never again be mistaken. The inscriptions on the leaden coffin were quite plain when the incrusta tions of time were removed, and es tablished the identity of the bones found in it. On the inside of the top of the box was the plainest and moot unmistakable of all the Inscriptions, giving the full title, the “Illustrious Baron Cristoval Colon,” and on the back and sides are similar inscrip tions proving the genuineness of the coffin and Its contents. There can, therefore, be no doubt that if Secretary Osborne's suggestion is accepted, the real bones of the real Columbus will go upon a voyage such as he may have dreamed about, but which could not be realized until tho Panama Canal was built, he will have found a route to tho Indies, by sail ing west.
