The instrument once belonged to his father, Frank Minkler, onetime resident of Ne braska, who bought the sword rom a brother-in-law, the finder, for half a dollar. The sword, complete with its ori ginal brass knuckle guard, is be lieved to be of Spanish origin. The curved blade, deeply pitted from lying covered for many years in the earth, is 30 inches long by one and one-eight inces in width, was plowed up from a field in Nebraska in 1901. Rust had eaten into the edge but the rapier-like point was unharmed. The metal of the rusty blade was extremely hard and could not be touched by the old time grind stone. Later it was cleaned with chemicals. H bears no identifica tion nor marks of any kind. The sword was found in what was once the Otoe Indian Reserva tion. Some historians suggest it could have been left as early as 1542 by an exploring party, pos sibly one of Coronado's which pen etrated into country that is now Kansas, Nebraska and Missouri in search of the riches in gold which they ncvep found.'Pieces of armor, and other items supporting this the ory, have been found near Prairie Rock in Kansas which bear Span ish inscriptions. The only other of identical de sign was owned by a veteran of the Revolutionary War, a Col. Ben jamin Moore. GRANGE NEWS LOST RIVER Lost River Grange.

Unions Merge In Michigan GRAND RAPIDS. Mich. tfl -The marriage of the AFL and CIO in Michigan was an accom plished fact today. But reluctant kinsmen, of the weaker AFL were still holding on to a dowry of some $171,000. Aides of AFL -CIO President George Meany, who ordered the merger, officiated here at the blending of the AFL Michigan Federation of Labor and the state HO into the Michigan State AFL CTO. No one showed up to say no and it was done in comparative har mony. Meany's aide Peter M. McGavin will try to do something tomorrow about collecting the AFL dowry from the MFL which balked at a merger but was unsuccessful in an attempt to block it. A court fight on the issue is expected. The State CKO Council, with a membership of about 600,000 com plied with .Meany's order to turn over its charter and assets of l'i million dollars. The MFL, which claims a mem bership of some 300,000. has re fused to yield its charter and funds, it ordered a boycott of the merger convention but delegates representing some 125.000 MFL members turned out and joined in an overwhelming vote for merger. The Michigan merger 40th among the states sets a pattern with other states, such as Rhode Island and New Jersey, which have been slow to merge on the state level. After merger on the national level Dec. 5, 1955. state and local groups were allowed two years to merger voluntarily. PROVES POINT STERLING. Colo.
