A POLITICAL THROW-HACK

LONDON May 29. (UP)—A throw back to firy political battles in the late Eightic was bionght out here recently when a voter registered him self in the county records as an adherent to the Mugwumm party. Few remember the odd party which originated during u holt from the regulai Republican Party in 1884. At that time .Mugwumps were charged with regarding themselves as superior to their party in character and intelligence. The supervisior of registration had never heard of a Mug-

Cloverdal*? The! wump Mn,i until th '' matter was ex-

plained he regarded the voter with

coit-iderable suspicion.

LAVISH GENEROSITY COLUMBIA, Mo, May 29. (UP)Ogie Collins, University of Missouri student, is convinced honesty pays no dividend*. He found a wallet containing 8500 on the streets here recently, waited an hour for the owner to return, and received only a muttered “thanks" for his reward.

About 9 o’clock the farmer started out to look for his sheep and before leaving home jokingly said to his wife: “Better start the neighbor* soon, it’s the middle of June, and 1 may get lost in the snow.” An hour later a snow storm came up and the -now fell thick and fast. A heavy wind piled it into drifts. At night the fatmer had not returned and his wifi alarmed the neighbors who sent out a searching party. Three days later they foundhim in a hollow in the side of a hill fuTzen but alive, Must of the

sheep were lost.
