Heart failure is believed to have been the cause. Mr. Garten was appointed to his municipal position two days after he had completed thirty-two years in the newspaper business.

He began newspaper work under General Nobel Prentis in Newton, Kansas. Since that time he has been employed on many metropolitan papers, at one time being connected with a Kansas City newspaper. He came to St. Joseph from Los Angeles about a year ago.
