Feeding hay’and dry grain just be­ fore or at milking time fills the air ofthe stable with duaL Ttyls dust settles into the milk pail earning bacteria with it. thus Increasing the germ con­ tent of the milk. Feeding, dry corn stover at milking time has the same effect as the feeding of hay and grain, onlj'xln a more marked degree, since corn stover usually • contains more ‘dust and bacteria Chan does hay and grain. Wiping the flank and udder of the cow .with a damp cloth just before milking will help reduce the number of bacteria which fall into the milk pall. The practice of brushing cows at mllklnfe time Is undesirable. The hair and dust which are thus set free ifito the attppsphere settle* into the milk pail during the process of milk­ ing and very materially aid in making it ‘spoil. . Stripping a cow dry, says Farm and Home, tends to reduce the number of bacteria fpund in the milk at the next milking while leaving a small amount Qf strippings in the udder increases -the number ot bacteria at the next milking. This id probably due to the fact that the greater manipulation neopsdury to thoroughly strip, the cow removes many bacteria which would otherwise remain in the udder to mul­ tiply during the time before the next milking. ‘ ‘To enjoy freedom from chilblainn,” >u<Jv Adorns died June 12, 1906, writes John Kemp, East Olfafield, Me., “I apply Buckk-o’s Arnica Salve >d 83. fosea Clemons died June 14. 1906, Have albO used it for salt rheum with excellent results.” Guaranteed to Edith Clay died July 2, 1906, aged cure fever sores, indolent ulcers, piles, burns, wounds, frost bites and skin 28. ‘Marietta Cooper died August 3f diseases. 25c al Von W; • Furniss.’ and C.

CASE 6OES TO CIRCUIT COURT ths Circuit Court to Straighten Out tho Tangle. '(From Lhe Charlotte Hepubllean.) Mrs. Elizabeth Watrous of Battle Creek, by Her attorney,. Judge Kelly, of that city, has brought legal action Id circuit court to recover the value of two real estate 'mortgages amount­ ing to 81,154.19) given to her by Levi Kenyon and his wife, Sarah J. .Ken­ yon, owners of farm property in Belle­ vue township, but who reside acroa* the road in Assyria township, Barry county. If Mrs. Watrous* story, us iQld in her bill ot complaint fried yea terdsy, is true, she u the victim of one of lhe boldest pieces of . fraduient dealing ever brought to light in th.cuui-t annals of this county. Mis. Watrous is 65 yearn old aud t>as al­ ways hud the most explicit confidence in Kenyon, us ia shows by the follow Ing-story of the transaction which will soon be nettled byjibe courts It is in­ timated by pcFncma familiar with ine cane that the njatter will not stop at the settlement of the property liughtion but may go further. - In March, 1901, Kenyon and his wife gave Mrs. Watrous u real estate mortgage for 8500 at six per cent inter­ net r>n the following de-cribed prop­ erty: ’‘All that certain piece or parcel of land situated in the township of Bellevue In the county of Eaton and State of Michigan, tbe north 25 acres of lhe west fractional quarter of the northwest - quarter of section 6, in town 1 north, range 6 west, the same being more or less according to tbe United States survey thereof.” The mortgage was recorded in the register of deed's office in this city, December 30, 1901, and according to tbe bill of complaint the sum of 830 has been paid on Lhe debt, leaving a balance of 8655.56, exclusive of a solicitor’s fee of 825 still due. In the following September Kenyon and bis wife executed another mort­ gage in fayor of Mrs Watrous for $1,250 ou the following described prop­ ertv: ‘‘All that certain piece or parcel of land situated In the Township of Bellevue, County of Eaton and State of Michigan, tbe northwest fractional quarter of the northwest quarter of section 6, in town 1 north, of range (> west.” making 21,498.13, exclusive of a solicitor’s fee remaining unpaid. Joseph W. Yourex, a Maple Grove, Barry county -farmer, was owing Mrs. Watrous $948 on a real estate mort­ gage, and September 14. 1904, Mrs. Watrous says she placed that debt in the hands of Kenyon for collection. That same day Kenyon represented to lhe old lady that In order to act for her it would be necessary for her to clothe hitp with the power of authority to collect tbe claim, and she un­ hesitatingly signed two or three papers Which Kenyon had prepared and which turned out to be discharges of the above mentioned mortgages, tbe same being filed In this city, May 15, 1905, although Mrs, Watrous was not aware of it until she came to Charlotte a couple of weeks ago to look up some business matters with the abstract office. Mrs. Watrous avers that owing to the fact that she left her spectacles at home she could not and did not read the papers, but signed and acknowl­ edged the same, relying upon tbe rep­ resentations and statements of Kenyon. The business was transacted in tbe office of Horace H. Bidwell, a notary public in Battle Creek. Mre. Watrous charges the truth to be that the sig­ natures were procured by Kenyon by false and fraudulent representations and were made without any considera­ tion or payment of any kind. The bill does not state whether or not Kenyon collected the money from Yourex, but that gentleman wilt be one of the principal witnesses. Mrs. Watrous wants to set aside the dis­ charges and direct that foreclosure proceedings be instituted and the prop­ erty sold to satisfy the mortgage.

Recent investigation has proven the fact that Rheumatism is a blood disease, therefore, many bright chem­ ists and physicians have bad good ground to work upon, and they nave succeeded in compounding a remedy, which, if used as advised, cannot fail to drive and eliminate from the blood and muscles all traces of man’s greatest evil.

Philadelphia, Jan. 7.—Demanding a loan of |5,000 and falling to. get It, Rollo Steele, formerly of Garner, la., and Chlcjngo, dropped a bomb in the Fourth Street National bank Sat­ urday, blowing him to plecee. Instant­ ly killing Cashier W. Z. McLear and Injuring six others. < Blast Causes Great Excitement. Tho Fourth Street National bank Is the largest financial institution in the city and occupies the greater portion of the first floor of the Bul­ litt building on Fourth street between Chestnut and Walnut streets tn tho heart of the financial district The explosion was terrific and it caused tremendous excitement in the crowd­ ed building and the street. 1 The explosion occurred a few mlnues before 12 o’clock, at a time when the bank is usually well filled with persona In a hurry to transact busi­ ness before the bank closes.- No one saw Steele enter the bank except EL F. Shanbacher. tiie vice president, who waa passing out of the building on his way to luncheon. He noticed the man was. poorly dressed, looked like a Russian and carried a small parcel. The man walked straight back to the rear of the bank and asked a clerk to direct him to the-office of the president, Richard H. Rushton. What took place in his office is best told by the president himself: Demands Loan of $5,000. ’1 was very busy when the man entered my office and I asked him to be seated for a moment. He was very poorly dressed, had patches on his sfepes and his entire appearance made me a bit-curious. While he was waiting for me to finish the business I had in hand at the moment I hap­ pened to notice that he looked at me very curiously. I asked him his busi­ ness and he gave his name as G. EL Williams and said he wanted a loan of $5,000. He did not look like a man who could make a loan of that amount and I asked him for collateral. He said something about an Insurance policy and that it would mature in from one to five years. I was then convinced the man was a crank and decided to dismiss him at once, not for a moment thinking there was any narm in him. I told him at once that he would have to see the cashier and directed him out in the banking department. At the same moment I called my colored messenger, William Crump, to see that the man was quick­ ly taken out of the building. As I turned to continue my work at the desk there was a terrific explosion and I thought the building was coming down. The man had not time to reach the cashier, the explosion came too soon." Two Lives Snuffed Out. Details as to what actually happened when the man left the office of Pres­ ident Rushton differ as no one can be found who saw the man drop the bomb. The door to the office of Cash­ ier McLear is only a few feet from that of President Rushton. and the man must have dropped the deadly missile between the two rooms. Cashier McLear was slttjng at his desk at the time and his \body was badly mangled. The bomb throwers' body was torn to pieces. At the time the explosion occurred all the vaults were open, books were piled on desks and papers of all sorts of value were lying on desks prepara­ tory to being put away for the day. 'rhe explosion devastated the Interior of the big banking room. Glass and wooden partitions were wrecked and leveled to the ground as though a cyclone had swept through tho place. Desks were ruined and Iron bars were twisted In fact there was hardly an object left Intact In the room. Believed Building Collapsed. The explosion blew every one In the banking room to the floor and for a moment they were dazed. Many or them not knowing what had happened and fearing that the building, which Is an eight story structure, was falling, made a rush for the door, Mr. Rush­ ton among them. The roar of the explosion brought the tenants on r.ll floors to their feet and a general rush was made to the elevators and tho stairways. As the excited peop.a camo out there was a rush from the street to rescue those who It was thought had been caught In tho ex­ plosion. In the meantime an alarm of fire was sent in and firemen was quickly on the ground. There being no fire in the place tho firemen and police- ordered everybody out and a strong guard was thrown about the building. Abandon Military Reservation. Washington, Jan. 7.—Tho military reservation of Fort Davla. Toxas, em­ bracing 300 acres of land In the coun­ ty of Presidio, has become useless for military purposes nnd by executive order has been transferred to the con­ trol of the secretary of tho Interior for disposition.

NeW York Attorney General Begins Action Against Gotham Mayor. New York, Jan. 8.—Attorney Gen­ eral Jackson, on behalf of the people of the state of New York. Monday en­ tered suit in the supreme court against George -B. McClellan, praying that the latter be ousted from the office of mayor of the city of New York on the ground that he has usurped and un­ lawfully holds such office, whereas William Randolph Hearst Is legally entitled to the same. The oomplaint declares flatly that at the election In November. 1905, Mr. Hearst “was duly and legally elected mayor of the city of New York;" It is further alleged that ballots legally marked for Hearst were counted for McClellan by the Inspectors of elec­ tion and that these "miscounts" form­ ed the basis of the returns of the vote. It Is claimed that men not en­ titled to vote were allowed to vote for McClellan, and that ta many other ways the election laws were -.-'olated at the 1905 election. Votes cast for Hearst, it is declared, were not count­ ed in a number of districts. lOW”«. liber Cl.

Furniss the popular druggist has succeeded In ge'-ling the Dr. Howard Co. to make a special half price Introductory offer on tbe regular 50 cent size of their celebrated specific for the use of con­ stipation and dyspepsia. This medicine is a recent discovery for the cure of all disease, of tbe stomach and bowels. It not only gives quick relief, but It males per­ manent cures. Dr. Howard’s specific has been so remarkably successful In curing con­ stipation, dyspepsia and all liver troubles Von W. Furnies Is willing to return the price paid in every case where it does not give relief. Headaches, coated tongue, dizziness, gas od stomach, specks before the eyes, constipation and all forms of liver and stomach trouble are soon cured by this scientific medicine. So great is the demand for this specific, that Von W. Furniss has been able to secure only a limited supply, and every one who is troubled with dyspepsia, coast! p allon or liver trouble should call upon him at once, or send 25 cento, and gel sixty doses of tbe beet medicine ever made, on this special half-price offer, with his personal guarantee to refund the money if it does not cure.

The Memo­ rial building will be of buff stone, with broad granite steps and landings, it will be fashioned on the massive Greek style, but with the lightness'and grace, as well as solidity, of Greek memo rials. Something in the very outlines will suggest the strength and loyalty of men of Michigan. The building will be a lasting gift from the past to the present: linking forgotten generations ot students with the young men now the campus. So, influences long past will continue to foster a noble usefulness. But the Memorial build­ ing is to be more than a mere Inspira­ tion. It will fill a daily need in college life for students, faculty, alumni and friends. Perpetual care and main­ tenance is guaranteed by the board of regents. At the recent banquet, of the Alumni association a special commit­ tee was appointed, consisting of Henry Russel, chairman, Wetmore Hunt and - Harlow P.

Evidence Aj.lnM -Colored Troops Is Positive —Ban on Civil Employment Under’Gov­ ernment Is Lifted. NEW DISCOVERY Washington. Jan. 15. — President Roosevelt Monday sent tq the senate a special message regarding the Brownsville Incident, which gives ad­ ditional evidence collected by Assist­ ant Attorney General Purdy and Maj. Blocksom. who were sent to Texas by the president to. investigate the affair. The president submitted with bls mes­ sage various exhibits. Including maps of Brownsville and Fort Brown, a bandoleer. 33 empty shells, seven ball cartridges, picked up in the streets a few hours after the shooting: three steel-jacketed bullets and some scraps of casings of other bullets picked out of the houses in which they had.been fired. . • Calls Them Midnight Assassins. The president declares that the evi­ dence is positive that* (ho outrages of August 31 were committed by some of the colored troops, that have been dismissed and that some or all of the members .of, the’ three com­ panies of the Twenty-fifth infantry had knowledge of the deed and have shielded the guilty ones. The negro troops are referred to by the presi­ dent iff his message as “midnight as­ sassins’* and he declares that very few-. If any. of the soldiers dismissed "without honor," could have been Ig­ norant of what occurred. That part of the order, which bars the soldiers from all civil employment under the government is revoked by the president This clause, the presi­ dent says, was lacking in validity. The discharged troops, however, will be forever barred from reenllstlng In the array or navy, and as to this thepresident says that "there is no doubt of-my constitutional and legal power.” Secretary Taft’s report, giving the sworn testimony of witnesses, Is transmitted with the message. The testimony of 14 eyewitnesses Is given and the president declares that the evidence is conclusive that the weap­ ons used were Springfield rifles now used by the United States troops, in­ cluding the negro troops who were in the garrison at Brownsville. Taking but a brief time to pass the legislative, executive and judicial ap­ propriation bill, carrying nearly $31,­ 000,000, the senate devoted the re­ mainder of the day to discussing the president's message. Tillman Score* President. Washington, Jan. 14.—Senator Tillman spoke on the Brownsville inclHe dent in the. senate Saturday, characterized, the president’s action in dismissing the negro troops "as nothing more nor less than a lynch­ ing.” He challenged anyone to pro­ duce In the army regulations or ar­ ticles of war any foundation for the charge of conspiracy of silence, mu­ tiny and treason nfcide against the sol­ diers, although he declared there was no doubt that the soldiers were re­ sponsible for the "outrage at Brownsvine." Senator Tillman held that it was contrary to the fundamental princi­ ples of liberty of English and Amer­ ican law that the innocent should suf­ fer because of the sins of the guilty; also he declared that a man shall be considered innocent until he is proved guilty. •■In this case.” he said. “167 men have been punished, while not more than 20 have been changed with par­ ticipation in the crime." Should Not Have Been Sent to Texas. Senator Tillman maintained that the negro troops should not have been sent to Texas. They were sent there, he said, against the protests of one of the Texas senators and the con­ gressman from that district They were sent there, he continued, with a wholly inadequate number of, officers, as there were only five officers for the three companies. Hopkins Defends Smoot W’ashington, Jan. 12.—The first speech in defense of the right of Reed Smoot to a seat in the senate was de­ livered Friday by Senator Hopkins of Illinois. Senator Hopkins took the position that senators were riot federal officers to the extent that the senate could pass upon their qualifications and eli­ gibility or could Impeach them for high crimes or misdemeanors. If a senator was to be punished. It must be done by the stole . or federal courts. Only federal officers,- he maintained, were impeachable, and this impeachment must be for- acts committed as such .federal officers. The precedent cited was the unsuc­ cessful effort to Impeach Senator Blount of Tennessee, charged with treasonable correspondence with a foreign nation, more than 10C yean ago. The conclusion then. Senator Hopkins said, had never been re­ versed, and that was that the senate had no right to try the case, as Sen­ ator Blount was not an officer of the United States.

Railroad Hglslatlpn promises to be the most important subject that tho ' present session will deal with. There are several bills already Introduced and a number of others are being drafted dealing with various phases of the subject Petitions are already coming In endorsing Senator Russell's bill providing for a fist passenger rate of two cents a mile in the lower penin­ sula and three cents In the upper pe­ ninsula. The only dissenting voice comes from the upper1 peninsula, where people are protesting against al­ lowing the railroads there to charge a higher rate than below tho straits, but members generally Incline to the opinion that operating expenses are znuch higher in the upper peninsula. Another bill that was defeated last year, but which very likely will be passed this time, is the measure mak­ ing railroads common carriers of live­ stock. This law is in effect.*in other states. Another bill that will make Its appearance Is a demurrage measure, placing a penalty upon railroads which fall to move freight within a reason­ able time. At present lumber dealers and other manufacturers jire only giv­ en a certain time In which to unload cars, but they have no redress to com­ pel the railroads to move their ship­ ments. They have been complaining bitterly, for years and are demanding action. --------Change In Committee*. General reorganization seems to be indicated In the committee appoint­ ments of Speaker N.J. Whelan. The important committees are all greatly changed from two years .ago, although an unusually large number of old members are returned. Every mem­ ber, Republican or Democrat, has no fewer than three and no more than tour committees. There is an entire­ ly new committee on public health. Five of the nine members of the tax­ ation committee are new. Five also of the new judiciary committee are new on the committee. The liquor traffic committee sees Representative Nank alone returned. Lord and Dewey alone are reappointed to pri­ vate corporations. Only three mem­ bers, Gordon, Thomas and Bunting, are back on the railroad committee. Representatives Stockdale and A J. Waters alone are listed again on the committee on revision and amendment of the statutes. Six of the nine mem­ bers of the state affairs committee are returned. The ways and means com­ mittee gets a fine Indorsement, with six old members reappointed. Only one member never-before In the legis­ lature receives a chairmanship. E. T. Abrams is head of the committee on public health. £ Embalmers Get License*. As a result of the recent embalmers' examination licenses have been grant­ ed to the following: William H. Hull, Victor Earl Cooper, Edmund J. Corkery,. Charles A. Humphrey, Samuel H. Metcalf, Grand Rapids; Andrew Frederichs. Marine City; Edwin Howell, Coopersville; John H. Bode&sb, Cole­ man; Howard Guy Keiser, Athens; Georre W. Smith, Scottsville; Martin V. Boyer. Caro; Harry Esalhorst. Eau Claire; Frank E. Baker, Carleton. Legislator* to See State. It Is practically settled that the legislature win adjourn for ten days, beginning Jan. 25, to enable the committees to visit various insti­ tutions. It is the general desire to have It definitely known that Gov. Warner will be able to be In Lansing when tho two houses reconvene and present information Is that he will be out In two weeks. Would Close State Fair Sunday. Notwithstanding the Immense crowd which attend the state fair on the Sunday It was open last fall, President Postal recommends that this year the gates be closed on the Sabbath. The total receipts of the year were $123,032.28, which 1* $30,000 more than the receipts of 1905. The re­ ceipts from concessions were >23,500. Fight Likely Over Fish BIIL There will be some sharp fighting when the bill for the protection of fish in the Saginaw river comes up. It Is claimed that the fish trust 16 back of this bill In its desire to stop the competition that It is meeting from hundreds of small fishermen, whose annual catch amounts to sev­ eral hundred thousand dollars. Change Abstract Business. Representative Adam Walker. of Bay City, believes that counties should handle the abstract business that Is now conducted by. private parties and be has a bill drafted making that change in Bay county. Strengthen National Guard. Lansing.—A. complete history of tie primary school interest fund Is given ip the annual report of the department ot public Instruction, for the year 1906, and several important, recommenda­ tions are made with reference to the distribution of the fund in. tho future. Last year >S,ft01,106 was distributed among the schools oi the state accord­ ing to the number of persons of school age, and under the present system of railway taxation It Is expected that not far frqm $3,500,000 annually WlU be hereafter distributed. This will be at the rate.of five dollars per capita or nearly so.- The superintendent of public Instruction questions whether the present basis is- the proper one, and It la stated that the question of the distribution of this large sum of money is serious. It Is said that the states which apportion- the primary money according to the districts and .not to the number of pupils receive the best results and, after mature In­ vestigation* It Is recommended that the Michigan law be so amended that the money shall*be apportioned ac­ cording to the number of teachers employed and that it be apportioned but once a year. It Is also recom­ mended that if. the present method Is to be followed the legislature should provide that when any district re­ ceives a larger amount than is neces­ sary tor the employment of teachers the balance should be covered back Into the state treasury. Constitutional Convention. It seems certain that partisanship will govern the formation of the con­ stitutional convention, so far as the legislature is concerned. There Is a feeling among the politicians that the party in power must retain control of the convention at all hazards. So far -as can be learned, the various measures dealing with the formation of the convention provide for elect­ ing the delegates in a way that will insure an almost solid Republican representation. The legislature could provide for a commission to appoint the delegates to the convention, but this plan does not seem to meet with favor. Senator Bland Is the first mem­ ber to Introduce a bill providing for the constitutional convention. His measure provides for the election of 100 delegates In the same way as members of the legislature are elected, one from each representative district. The date of the copvention Is named, May 20, 1907. and the members are to draw $10 a day for not to exceed 60 days. Want Reference Department. Before the present session adjourns efforts will bo made to bring about the establishment of a reference depart­ ment, similar to the one in Wisconsin. Such a department would have ready tor instant use complete information bearing on all matters that might come up for legislative action. Sena­ tor Bland has in mind the introduction of such a measure. To bo valuable the position will have to be non-poUtical, a -fact that the membership recognises. Eighteenth Annual Convention of the Lumber Dealer* of the State Is to Be Held st Detroit Detroit—Preparations are nearly completed for the eighteenth annual convention of the Michigan Lumber Dealers* association, which will be held at the Wayne Hotel February 5, 6 and 7, and which, It Is expected, wlU be the largest convention ever held by the association. J It will close with a Hoo-Hoo con­ catenation for which extensive prepa­ rations have been made. It is planned to arrange.a tour for the members at the close of the convention and the committee will submit three proposed tours; one to New' Orleans, and the Mardi Gras celebration: a second to Havana, Cuba, and a third to the east All Michigan railroads have made spe­ cial rates for the convention. Farmer Killed by Cars. Moline.—Struck by a double. header Lake Shore freight, Wesley W. Pullen was killed, his skull being crushed. His dead body wag found on the loco­ motive pilot. Parts of the wagon, in which he was riding. Fere thrown 50 feet Pullen was a farmer, living on a rented farm two miles from here. He was 53 years old. He leaves a widow and eight children. D. A M. Before Tax Commission. Lansing.—The state tax commission has arranged to hear representatives of the Detroit & Mackinac railroad January 22 in opposition to the assess­ ment of the railroad property; which has been Increased this year from $4,400,090 to $4,625,000. A hearing has been granted the Michigan A Wiscon­ sin Railroad company January 28. Neat Sum for Y. M. C. A. Jackson.—The Y. M. C. A. hustled January 16 to raise the necessary >25,000 to dedicate Its building free of debt and when the result was an­ nounced the amount needed was ex­ ceeded by $4,000. This Insures the completion of the new swimming pool.

Later, getting the Western fever, he left bin native State, bringing up, after several weeks of investigation, at Sionx City, Iowa, where lie obtained employment in a wholesale hardware store as as­ sistant book-keeper and billing clerk. This position be retained until called home a year later by the sicknew of his mother. Being the youngest and only unmarried member of his father's family, he was persuaded to remain in Michigan. In 1881 he went to Nash­ ville and purchased the hardware business of C. C. Wolcott, whjeh he has conducted with marked success to the present time. In 1890 he added a furniture depart­ ment to his business, which has also proved a success, his linbs now com­ prising hardware, furniture and farm implements. His unquestioned honesty and frank, open planner in the treatment of customers have won for him a host of friends and built up' a large business and he is regarded as one of the brightest and best business men in Barry county. He is an active working member in both the Masonic 'and Knights of Pythias fraternities. ’ He was born and raised a Repub­ lican and has always been a willing and energetic worker for the success of his p.arty. He enjoys the confidence of all political workers, being knojm as a man who works for the party's good without thought of personal reward. He has never been an office seeker in any sense of tbe term and up to , four years ago never held ahv office at tho hands of the people aside from president pf the village in which he lives, once by appointment arid once by election without an opposing can­ didate. At tbe Senatorial convention, held • in the fall of 1002, be was the unanimous choice of the delegates as their candidate for Senator from the Fifteenth district, comprising the counties of Barry and. Eaton. He made such a good record on the floor and in the committee rooms of the Senate that he was unanimously nominated two years later to succeed himself for a sepond term. On account of his excellent judgment and unusal tact, as well as his ability as a forceful and convincing speaker, he was elected President of the Senate, over which he preaided with rare dignity and discretion, receiving the commendation and approval of every member of that Body. Mr. Glasgow was married to Miss Matie C. Miller, of Jonesville, in 1881, after establishing himself in business ut his present location. Mr. Glasgow possesses a charming personality which naturally attracts and holds men. One can not come in contact with him without feeling that he is in the presence of a true gentle­ man. His aim is to do right, to stand for the right and to be kind to all. He does not preach to others, but he sets them an example. In an unostentatious yet inagnetic manner he shows them the way. “One of the best and finest of men.” say all, and a man with that reputation must have earned it.—Michigan Tradesman.

The result was terrible. The” shock was' felt for 30 miles, many believing it an earth­ quake. Entire Train Destroyed. The three coaches of the passenger train were filled. The entire train, in­ cluding the engine, was blown from the track, the coaches demolished, the engine hurled 50 feet and the pas­ sengers either blown to pieces, con­ sumed by fire or rescued in a more^or less injured condition. At least 30 injured, some fatally, are at the hospitals, in Terre Haute and Paris, Ill. Several are also being cared for at Sandford. The full extent of the disaster was revealed at. daylight Sunday morning, but the death list will not be com­ plete until the workmen now clearing the debris, have finished their task. The dea0, so far as known, are: William Thompson, Sandford, Ind.; J. W. Southerland, Paris. Ill.; John Franklin, Mattoon, Ill. (brakeman on •No. 3); A. D.

According to trainmen of tho freight, the explosion of the powder was caused by the concussion made by the passing passenger train, which was ■lowing down for the station at Sand­ ford. Another theory Is that gas es­ caping from an oil- pipe line nearby entered the car containing the powder anij a spark from the passing engine ignited the gas. The belief was expressed by one or two persons that the disaster was due to tho act of a tramp or an intoxicated man who may have fired a shot Into the car. Not a home in .Sandford escaped. Windows were shattered, dishes and furniture broken, and in some in­ stances doors were torn from tli^ir hinges. The train was an accommodation passenger, running from Indianapolis to Mattoon, Ill., and was destroyed at 8:50 p. m. It was a dark night and heavy rains had converted tho streets and tracks at Sandford into a sea W mud and water. As the passenger engine went by the powder car of the freight train standing on an adjoining track the explosion came. By the light of the burning coaches the people of Sandford did their best for the injured. The residents of the a village threw open their homes to the throughout the season. .

Purity Bill. of tbe spectacular wqre mlsulng from tbe proceedings of the senate Monday. Tbe Brownsville affair was the sub­ ject of controversy, and tho day be­ gan with the announcement of a com­ promise resolution which brought Ropublican and Democratic senators to­ gether on the basis.of ordering an In­ vestigation of the facts of the affray without bringing into question the au­ thority of the president to dismiss the negro troops. The resolution was submitted to and’ approved by the president at a con­ ference Bunday. When the "harmony" testimonials were all in. Senator Tillman took the floor and delivered a speech in reply to the recent criticism of himself by Senator Spooner. This speech began with a satirical picture of the senate as a minstrel show, which Mr. Tillman later said was bls first and last at­ tempt to be .“funny," an attempt which at its conclusion brought a stinging denunciation from Senator Carmack In resentment of allusions to him. Senator Tillman Apologizes. This was preceded by a serious re­ ply from -Senator Spooner on the at­ titude taken by Mr. Tillman on the race problem, all finally resulting in a session of nearly two hours behind closed doors. The secret session was followed by a brief open one in which Mr. Tillman made a profuse apology to Mr. Car­ mack. to all senators whom ho had brought into his "first essay In the light of humor," and finally to the en­ tire senate. "I very much regret that I ever undertook to be funny, and I will never do so any more." Mr. Till­ man then withdrew all he had said in hls> “funny essay” and said It would not appear in tho Record. This apology was at once accepted by Mr. Carmack, who regretted he had questioned the motives of his friend, and he, too, withdrew words he had uttered In protest. Goes Over to Tuesday. Mr. Foraker made a final attempt to get a vote on his resolution, but ob­ jection was made, and the matter will be taken up Tuesday immediately after morning business-has been dis­ posed of. Mr. Carmack remarked jocularly that there were not more than 15 or 20 senators desiring to talk, and Mr. Foraker, feigning seriousness, retorted hotly that the senator need not think the Democratic side of the chamber cogid monopolize the talking. Mr. Carmack explained that he was only trying to bo funhy, that It was hls first attempt and he would never make another. As senators were laughing heartily over this parting salty. adjournment was taken at 6:15 o’clock. During the entire day, the galleries of tho senate were crowded to their capacity, and the debate was also lis­ tened to b> seemingly a majority of the members of tho bouse of repre­ sentatives, who occupied all available seats and standing room in tho cham­ ber. . Political Purity Bill Passed. Discussion of the senate bill to pro­ hibit corporations from making money contributions in connection with po­ litical elections took the form of cam­ paign stump debate in the house, but this did not prevent the passage of the measure. Democrats, under the lead of Messrs Williams of Mississip­ pi, Robinson of Arkansas and Hard­ wick of Georgia, criticised the alleged activity of Republican National Chair­ man Cortelyou during the last presi­ dential campaign in soliciting funds from corporations. Mr. Mann, of Illinois, opposed the bill on the ground that corporations should be permitted to contribute to election expenses if rich Individuals were to do so, and he asserted- that the effect of the bill would be to keep poor men out of office. The Democrats applauded a question by Mr. Williams as to whether anyone doubted Presi­ dent Roosevelt’s ability to bring about a return of contributions by Insurance companies "if he exerted his great power, influence and popularity." Mr. Robinson replied it is a wellknown fact that the Republican chair­ man has been promoted In office, and he had not been asked to make resti­ tution of the funds "taken from widows and orphans." Tbe bouse pronounced unanimous­ ly in favor of enlarging and making more efficient the field of coast artil- WEALTH. CASTORIA Ida M.

Sheap.Prop. of the city dairy, living just outside of Sturgis, Mich., sayp: "I endorse the claims made for Doan's Kidney Pills, for I know they are an excellent remedy for kidney trouble. For five years there was a dull heavy .pain in tbe small of my back about all tbe time. Often it was acute and piercing particularly if I look cold, for it always settled in my back and I felt so lame and stiff in the morning I could hardly get around. The kidney secretions were affected, very distressing at times, were of a murky nature and badly discolored. I tried a number of remedies but re­ ceived no benefit. I heard about Doan’s Kidney Pills curing people troubled like 1 was, and I got a box. They did me more good than any other remedy I ever used/ They posl-, lively relieved the aching in my back and stopped tbe annovance from the kidney secretions.

Comfort passed from this earth to the great beyond Sunday evening at 6:00 o’clock, after an ill­ ness of several months, from, septi­ cemia. He had been gradually grow­ ing worse, since four weeks preceding his death, when he suffered a stroke of paralysis which incapacitated his right side and affected his speech. He knew the end was surely coming and talked, of it—arranging his business matters and attending to the smallest details, without * complaint. His dis­ ease was blood poisoning, which was contracted from a patient, of such a virile nature that from the first symp­ toms it was evident to the physicians who were called that there was no earthly help for him. He himself was aware of his condition and bo^e the pain and suffering with a fortitude that was characteristic, of his nature.

FURNISS medicine and by dint of hard knocks and self-sacrifice, by both himself and his faithful wife, he was enabled to attend the University of Michigan. His funds gave out after he had studied two years and he was com­ pelled to quit his studies until he could recoup his diminished finances, when he again took up his studies, this time, however, at Columbus, Ohio, where he graduated and then began the actual practice of medicine for which he had so stubbornly strived to fit himself. He went to McBrides, Montcalm county, where he practiced until 18 years ago, when he went t<> Mason and remained about a year. He came to Nashville 17 years ago, and but for a couple of years in Hud­ son has successfully practiced his profession in this village. Hep was married 40 years ago to Miss Elnora Slocum; three children being born to this union, George O. Comfort and Mrs. Ervin Lyon of Kalamazoo and Mrs. F. M. WebCr of this village. About eight years ago he was sepa­ rated from his-wife and a year later united in marriage to Miss Ella Sparks, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Sparks of Morgan, who sur­ vives him. Dr. Comfort was a brilliant scholar, not only as regards his profession but in all matters that he chose to affiliate himself with. He was a student—when a subject came up he was able to grasp it and would give it thought and study. Th,is trait was partly re­ sponsible for his success in his practice, for even the smallest, simplest cases received as much care and study , from him as sorfle of his greatest surgical operations. As a surgeon he could, had he desired, rank­ ed with the best in the country—he had the knowledge, the skill and the courage, ' and probably performed more successful difficult surgical operations than any surgeon in this part of the country. He was an honest man and one of । his peculiarities wa. a desire to do justice to all, and there is no doubt but that' his illness was primarily caused by his effort to relieve the sufferings of a "charity" patient. His illness dates back to some time last summer, when an ugly-looking sore broke out on one of his fingers. He tried himself to heal it, and took counsel from other doctors, and to them as well as to himself the danger­ ous tell-tale sore foretold only too well what the outcome would be. The sore was finally healed, however, but it was evident that the disease from which it sprung still clung to his sys­ tem and since about the first of No­ vember he has been gradually sink­ ing. The best medical skill of the country was called, but to all the symptoms were too plain and no en­ couragement could be given. He sank slowly but surely until the end came, and thus he sacrificed his life to his profession. His family have the sympathy of all and his many friends grieve over his' demise, just at a time when he was able to be of so much good to humanity. ■ He was a member of Nashville lodge No. 255, F. & A. M>, and a member of the local Maccabee lodge, in which he carried ♦1000 life insurance. He is survived by three sisters, Mrs. F. M. Foster of Algansee, Miss Ruth Comfort of Alpena and Mrs. D. H.

It's just this—I ’know it sounds foolish—but do you think—that is, do you believe in love at 'first sight?” The young woman’s fingers tight­ ened on tho arm of the wicker porch chair, but she answered with an elab­ orate air of being quite impersonal. “Well, that depends," she said. "It would depend on the persons, don’t you think?” “I suppose so,” agreed the young man, gloomily. Presently he continued: “But how is a fellow going to tell about the other person? Just suppose, for in­ stance. that It'was 1 who had fallen in love with a girl the moment I saw her—just for the sake of the argu­ ment, of course. 1 couldn’t be at all ' sure she felt the same way, could I?” “Couldn’t you sort of—well, guess?" suggested tbe girl, smoothing out tho top ruffle on her white dress. Tbe young man shook his head. “I don’t like to guess,” he objected. "I want to be sure. You see, she is such a wonderful girl, so pretty and fas­ cinating that I’m not at all certain • she would .even look at me.” ■ "You shouldn’t be too modest, you know,” said the girl, a little breath­ lessly. “Girls like men who act us though they owned the earth.” “Do they?” asked the man interestly. “I know so little about girls. That’s why I wanted to ask you about this.” "Oh, then it really is you—that Is, you have fallen In love with some girl?" she inquired with beautiful sis­ terly interest.

She felt very well satisfied. “Then you'd advise me to ask her right out?” he asked, anxiously. She looked down and then turned her head aWay slightly.. "Yes. I would,” she answered, rather faintly. “Thank you so-much!” the man said happily, getting to his feet. “You don’t know how it has helped me to talk It over with you!

If you owe The News a, dollar or two dollars or three dollars, we need it. It is right that it should be paid, and paid promptly, and there is no reason why it should not be. It is dead wrong for you to be carrying three or four of the editor’s dollars around in your pocket while he is paying intererst at the bank on motley to do business with. So when you get your statement, if you do get one, don't get mad about it but consider it in the right light and loosen up cheer­ fully. A goodJoke is told on a Nashville nimrod. He was out rabbit, hunting with a party of friends.when a festive hare was chased from' his den in the brush.

Manzanillo. Cuba, Jan. 29.—Ex-Pres­ ident Palma gave out an interview Monday in the remote retreat on the Canto river where he Is establishing a home. He is now Iving in a shanty with his two sons. His wife and other members of his family are at Matanzas waiting until Palma can build for them a home. The ex-presfdpnt has 1,000 cattle on the ranch, and will soon erect a bouse. Senor Palma In the Interview told of bis struggles since 1868 to throw off tbe Spanish yoke and obtain per­ manent peace and security for Cuba. "When after years of bloodshed and sacrifice;’ he said, "the Cuban people, with the aid of the United States, set up the republic, I thought turbulence was a thing of the past, and a long era of happiness and prosperity was ahead. “During 'the four years of my ad­ ministration there was peace and con­ fidence. Public Improvements were made, foreign capital flowed into the country to build railways and develop natural resources. The country’s credit was high and there was mil­ lions In the treasury. "When this position had been at­ tained after such havoc and protract­ ed struggle it was a painful shock to see the Cuban people had not the pa­ triotism to stand united before the* world, but were fomenting dissension and starting a revolution against their own government “With the millions In the treasury 1 could unquestionably have suppress­ ed the revolution, but In doing this 1 could not prevent the destruction ot property or the shedding of Cuban blood by Cubans. "It was to avert these calamities that I stood aside to permit the United States to exercise the right and duty it had assumed of preserv­ ing Cuban independence and protect­ ing life, property aud individual lib­ erty.” ALGER HAS SOLDIER’S FUNERAL. Military Note Predominant in Obse­ quies of Dead Senator. Detroit, Mich., Jan. 29.—It was dis­ tinctly a soldier’s funeral that was held Monday over the body of the late United States Senator Russell Alex­ ander Alger, who died suddenly last Thursday in Washington With dele­ gations present from the national con­ gress and the state legislature, with the state of Michigan and the city of Detroit fully represented, .'.here was no lack of recognition of the fact that Gen. Alger had been a statesman and senator. But as the title of "gen­ eral” had never wholly capitulated to that of “senator," so the military note was predominant in his obsequies. Tbe funeral was held at two o’clock at the dead senator’s home on Fort street, WesL The service, consisting only of prayer, scripture reading and a benediction, was read by Rev. E. H. Pence, pastor of the Fort street "’resbyterlan church, assisted by Rev. J. M. Cooper. tbe procession to Elmwood ceme­ tery was led by a military escort con­ sisting of the seventh regiment.

Schulte, aged 63, n cap­ italist and banker of Memphis, Tenn., committed suicide here Monday at the Battle Creek sanitarium, where he was being treated for a nervous trouble. His wife discovered his body In a bathroom, a shawl strap around his neck, showing that he had choked himself to death. Washington, Jan. 29.—The most ter­ rific arraignment of the Standard Oil company yet made by either private or public investigator waa that filed with congress Monday by the inter­ state commerce commission. Every conceivable corporate crime, from discrimination and false pre­ tenses to bribery, corruption of the press and debauchery of public offi­ cials, is contained in the catalogue of charges. After a long and painstaking inves­ tigation ordered by congress, in which hundreds of witnesses were examined in various cities of the country, and ample opportunity was given the oil octopus to defend itself, the* commis­ sion makes a report, that completely overshadows the sensational disclos­ ures revealed in the report of Com­ missioner of Corporations Garfield on the same subject last May. Bares'OII Monopoly. Warfield's- report was confined laigely to the relations of the Standard Oil company to the railroads of the coun­ try; the Interstate commerce commis­ sion’s report goes Into the whole sub­ ject of monopolistic control ot the oil market With a wealth of detail It de­ scribes the, devious methods employed bv the Rockefeller combine to crush comi>eUtlon. Some of these methods are outlined by the commission as follows: "The Standard has sold ’different’ grades of oil at different prices from the same barrel. -Widespread Bribery Charged. "It has paid employes of Independent oil companies for Information as to the business ot those competitors, and has paid employes of industrial com­ panies to secure the adoption of its oil in preference to that of its com­ petitors. "It has followed every barrel of in­ dependent oil to Its destination. Its agents are Instructed to secure custo­ mers at any sacrifice. “It has tampered with the oil in­ spectors in different states. The laws of several rtates concerning the In­ spection of Dll are singularly defec­ tive, and this has been turned to profit by the Standard. "The Standard buys advertising space In many newspapers which it fills, not with advertisements, but with rending matter prepared by agents kept for that purpose and paid for at advertising rates, as ordinary news. The assumption Is that this literature furnishes many of the ideas touching the great benefits conferred upon the public by the Standard Oil company. Operates "Fake” Concerns. "The operation ot such fake inde­ pendent concerns has boen one of its most effective means of destroying competition. The Standard had habitually reduced the price against Its competitors in a particular locality while maintain­ ing Its prices at other places. When competition was destroyed, it restored or advanced former prices." Government Must Take Action. "It is becoming necessary,” says the report, "for the uprooting of estab­ lished wrongs and the prevention of others, that the government shall fix in the first instance the rates and reg­ ulations for the transportation of oil. This method has been adopted by the legislature of one state. 'It will probably be found necessary us disassociate In the case of oil, as In that of other commodities, the function of transportation from that of production and transportation. Tha investigation by the commis­ sion failed to disclose any instance where a railway company has been Interested directly In oil lands or in petroleum production, only one in­ stance was discovered where officials of a railway company were interested in the production and sale of oil. SIX DIE IN BURNING FACTORY. Mill at Dover, N. H., Destroyed with Loss of Life. Dover, N. H., Jan. 28.—At least six lives were lost Saturday in connec­ tion with the destruction by fire of Mill No. 1 of the extensive plant of the Cochoco Manufacturing company, man­ ufacturers of cotton goods in thle city.

Nearly every one of tho bodies had been burned beyond hope of their identifi­ cation. The financial damage is esti­ mated at between 160,000 and 960,000. Jealousy Causes Tragedy. Philadelphia, Pa..

Hale, the druggist. Glasgow “The finest affair of the kind ever, given in Nashville." This is the universal verdict rendered by all who attended the reception given to State Railroad Commissioner Glasgow at the opera house last Friday evening. The building was beautifully decorated, the work being in charge of L- E. Slout and Rev, C. W. Fletch­ er. A portico was constructed over the outside entrance, hearing the word “Welcome" on each facade, and the entrance was carpeted. In the hall, graceful festoons of bunting hung from the ceiling in every direction. Potted plants and flowers were used profusely, while colored lights added greatly to the. festive appearance of the room. Huge flags draped the windows and galleries, and smaller flagh were everywhere. The stage was banked with palms, screening the orchestra. On the west side of the nx>m was constructed an elaliorate booth, wherein were stationed Mr. and .Mrs. Glasgow and the latter’s mother Mrs. Robert Miller. Assisting in the receiving line were Mr. and Mrs. H. R Dickinson and Mr. and Mrs. Frank MdDerby. Here the new rail­ road commissioner was .greeted and congratulated by about five hundred of the people of the village and vicinity, besides a number of his warm friends from Hastings, ahd it is a sure thing that no man in this part of Michigan ever received a more heart v reception or more genuine con­ gratulations than were extended on uiis occasion tothe'genial “C. L." On the east side of the room was another pretty booth, where punch was served by Mrs. E. V. Barker, assisted by Misses Nina Titmarsh and Eya Evans. During the early part of the evening Len W. Feighner, in behalf of the people of 'Nashville and vicinity, presented ,Mr. Glasgow a handsome silver loving cup, bearing the'inscrip­ tion "Presented to Cassius L. Glasgow by his loyal home friends, Feb. 1, 1907.” The victim of the surprise was nearlv taken off hisjfeet, but responded with a neat little speech which went direct to the hearts of all who heard it. . The music for the occasion was fur­ nished by Walrath’s orchestra, com­ posed of H. W. Walrath, H. L. Walrath, Dr. E. T. Morris, John Freeman, Harry Johnson, and Miss Kathryn Bowen, with Clark Belknap of Eaton Rapids playing traps. The program consisted of high-grade music and was highly complimented by all who were present. Taken in its entirety, the reception was an event of which the people of Nashville may well feel proud, and the almost universal expression was one of regret that such affairs do not come oftener. At the close of the reception, ten o’clock, Mr. Glasgow was captured bva squadron of hisK.of P. brothers, who made their appearance clad in the robes of office ana carrying sWords and spears. They hoisted him bodily high above their heads and bore him away to their castle hall, where a jolly little spread was partaken of by forty of the Pythians. The spread was followed by a smoker which lasted until midnight. Then the jolly Hard­ ware man was allowed to go home to make his entries for the day in his diary, and we venture to say it took a full page. AT FOUR SCORE AND SEVEN.

On Saturday morning last, at the J home of Mr. and Mrs. George Brown ; in Maple Grove, occured the death of John Feighner, who settled in Castle­ ton township more than half a century ago, and who has lived here ever since. Had he lived until March 23rd, he would have completed his 87th year, and they have been years of usefulness and righteouness. He . was one of the sturdy workers who redeemed this fair county from the wilderness, and by his industry and frugality amassed a conpetence which made hi» declining years serene and confortable; He was a man respected and esteemed by all who knew him, and his memory will linger long in the hearts of his friends. His passing was that of the ripened grain. The funeral occurred from the Evangelical church in this village Tuesday morning at eleven o’clock, and was in charge of Nashville Lodge, No. 255, F. &. A. M., of which he was the oldest member. The sermon was by -Rev. H- L Voelker, and the re­ mains were laid to rest in Lakeview cemetery.

NUMBER 24 A numl>er of the young friends of Miss Edna Per~y perpetrated a very pleasant surprise on her at her home on the South side Monday evening, the occasion being her sixteenth birth­ day. Icecream and cake were served and after spending an enjoyable even­ ing the guests len, all whisking their hostess many more happy birthdays. At the republican caucus held at the opera house yesterday afternoon, the following delegates were elected to the county convention to be held at Hastings tomorrow: Von W. Furniss, Frank McDerby, W. A. Smith, T. U. Fuller, J. Ford McBain, Daniel Garlinger, E. V. Smith, Daniel Erb, H. M. Hosmer, W. N. DeVine and Ralph De Vine. Von Furniss was made chairman of the delegation. A big sleigh-load of Hastings young people drove to Nashville Tuesday evening and spent the even­ ing with the editor and family. Those who composed the party were Missei Dunn, More, Monroe, Osborne. Ruhl, Woodi and Marguerite andLovina Ironside, Messrs. Milton Stewart, Fraser Ironside, Jas. Howard, Jesse Wykoff, Lee Pryor, Roy Knight, Arthur Crotbers.and Maurioe Pierson. Congressman Hamilton has been endeavoring during the past week to get the sentiment ofhis district on the modified ship subsidy bill, which is expected to come to the house soon. Tin feeling in this vicinity seems to be largely in favor of the bill, which has the hearty approval of the Presi­ dent. The modified bill is vastly different from the one proposed by the Harriman and Hill interests, ' and which the President strenuously opposed. | The butter from the Nashville creamery received a score of 93, which was third highest on creamery butter in the “gathered cream class’ , at the state scoring test conducted by the Dairy and Food department at Lansing in January, the highest test being 94|. Mr. Siebert, the butter­ maker and secretary, says to the patrons of the creamery: “Keep your cream clean and sweet, to help rairfe the standard of our butter, which will increase the price of butter.” A. A. Whiteman was arrested Sat­ urday by Sheriff Furniss and ap­ peared before J ustice Bishop of Hast­ ings on a charge of keeping his saloon open after hours. He demand­ ed an examination which was set for February 14. It is not claimed that he was sellihg liqucfr, or that he was keeping open, but it is alleged that Whiteman and both his bartenders were in the place after closing hours, which is in Itself a violation of law, as only the proprietor may lawfully remain after nine o’clock. There are two kinds of gossipers and both classes are genuine nuisances to society and an abominable evil in gen­ eral. One class deliberately lie and circulate lies. The besmirching of rep­ utations is their delight. The other class, but little better, takes great de­ light in delving in the past and re­ minding the present generation of all the forgotten faults and foolish er­ rorsand mistakes made by people who have since redeemed by a life of hon­ esty and probity. If all the gossips were transported the work of salva­ tion would lie a far easier task than it ia now. . Senator C. L. Glasgow of Barry county, the new state railroad com­ missioner, who takes charge of the office today, is a man of the right sort forthe position. For a quarter of a century or more he has been a heavy retail dealer in hardware, im­ plements and furniture. He is in close touch with the farming people and is familiar with shipping inter­ ests. He took a leading position as state senator for two terms and is one of the most successful, well informed merchants of Michigan. He is in every way a right sori of man and a safe official.—Carsoa City Gazette. It is unofficially reported that the postoffice department ia considering plans for establishing a Sunday deliv­ ery of mail on the rural routes, and that the experiment will be tried about the middle of the year. This new step is in response to the demand of farm­ ers in thickly settled districts for newspapers and mail matter on Sun­ day the same as is accorded town residents at the postofflee. The pub­ lishers of daily newspapers all over the country are urging the proposi­ tion. The carriers would not welcome this new departure, especially at their present salaries. It is supposed that they will receive extra conpensation. E. V. Smith, supervisor of this townshiv, has decided, after much urging by his friends, to become a candidate for the secretaryship of the Barry and Eaton insurance company. D. W. Rogers, who has held the office for the past 27 years, has refused to be a candidate again, which leaves the field open for another Barry County man, as under the rules of the com­ pany the vice president and secretary must be Barry county men, while the president and treasurer must belong in the other county. Mr. Smith has been a meml>er of the company ever since he was of age, and his father, David Smith, was one of the founders of the company and for many years one of its officers and directors. He is fully capable of filling the office to the entire satisfaction of the members, is genial and affable, and would make as good an official for the position as any man that has been nfmed. He frankly says that he will pay no rail­ road fares and buy no dinners in order to secure votes for the office, as he considers that method a ^fraft which has been worked loo often in the past, and that it is detrimental to the best interests of the company. If he is elected it will be on his merits and be­ en useelie members want him for their •sr re!ary. Nashville is the most central location in the two counties and is the most logical point geogra­ phically for the office of the secretary. We hope to see Mr. Smith elected to the office; and can assure the company that if he is elected they will have a careful, honest and capable secretary.. �le Excited The Great Cooper as fie is Called Has Stirred up That City to a Remarkable Degree.

SOMETHING ABOUT RATS. Three miles south and one-half mile east of Nashville is located what is generally known as the Bowen farm, \thc farm being recently purchased by Ed Penfold of Battle Creek. Between the house and barn ou this very desir­ able plantation stands, op did stand, a •shredded corn fodder stack, and thereby hangs a tale. . Mr. Penfold desired to transfer this -fodder into the barn, therefore he secured the services of Walt. Ruse and commenced the task, not thinking what excitement there was in store. They down about tips middle of the stack when suddenly, after a large forkful of fodder had been lifted to lbe wagon, the remaining part of the stack seemed to turn into muskrats. They were jumping and running everywhere: everything seemed to be rats, ut,d they were as excited as the Spaniards were when Dewey awoke them in Manila bay. Penfold was also a little rattled not having been accustomed to such scenes in the Queen City; he jumped to the ground and exclaimed, "My God, have I paid out my good money for a farm that won’t raise anything butrate?’’ But Wall "kept his head;” he ! took in the situation ata glance.

In the United States cattle feeders have gotten out of the habit of feed­ ing roots to cattle, because of the abundance of corn and corn fodder. The chemist has also assisted In thia gsovement by showing that the nutri­ tive value of roots is not great, as compared with the nutritive value of the grains. But roots havo a value greater than that shown by the nu­ trients as determined by analysis. There is a digestive value in the acids and in the bulk that no chemical an­ alysis will determine. Roots have a stimulating effect in that they please the appetite. Some roots are still fed to cattle in the eastern states, where the cus­ tom began far back in the early set­ tlement of the country and has per­ sisted. Two reasons are found for this. One, the early settlers were from England, where root feeding was common; two...the growing of corn is a more difficult matter than In the west, where the level fields make the use of machinery possible. In New England roots are still raised quite extensively for stock feeding. Some object to the feeding of tur­ nips to dairy cows, but this objection Is n,ot to be met with in the feed'ng of beef cattle and of dry dairy cows. Doubtless the com and corn fodder will be more effective when fed with roots than fed without roots. Now that the price of corn has risen to such a height, it is necessary that Its feeding should be made as effective as possible. With the increasing price of land it becomes necessary to . make every acre produce as much feed as possible. A very great tonnage of beets or tur­ nips can be grown on an acre of land if the soil be properly enriched and properly tilled, says Farmers’ Review. The tops as well as the roots can be fed to beef cattle. The succulent character of the roots insures their complete digestion by the cattle. Mangel wurzels are particularly adapted to feeding,^because they are relished by the cattle and can be grown in large quantities. Dance at the opera house the 16th. A mature apple is\>ne that has com- । plefed its growth; it is not ripe till it Is at its best for eating. The Wolf River Is a good apple, but so heavy that it falls from the limb too readily and often before it Is mature. The best plums for the northwest, as recommended by many horticul­ turists, are: De Soto, Forest Garden, Cheeney; Wolf, Rollingstone, Wy­ ant and Surprise. Currants may be started in late summer by setting strong shoots of the same season’s growth in a shady place. Prune off all of the branches and leave most of the leaves. Leguminous crops enrich the soil In phosphoric acid and potash because they bring up quantities of these ele­ ments from the sub-soil. Sow a cover crop of cowpeas or crimson clover.

It Should Be Done When Its Is Young —The Best Methods. I believe that the best time to shape the top of an apple tree is when it Is young. 1 also believe that there is no one way of shaping a tree that will apply to all localities and all va­ rieties of apple trees. I once lived in a part of the. country where there Is much moisture and much fog, and where there is never in ’ the winter any Injury from sunscald. Now it does not pay in such a case to shape the heads low. On the other band, I believe that in much of the west the conditions are such that low heading is advisable, especially if the trees be not on a northern slope. When the northern slope is quite pronounced the winter sun. which is low in the south; shined on the trees for such a short time in the day that there is little danger of Injury from the sap being started. It might.be well to head low a few trees nearest the top of the slope, but the shadow from these will help to protect the others farther down the slope. There are some trees that need a great deal of heading back to make them develop low heads, these being trees that are naturally spreading in their habit, says the Farmers’ Re­ view. Other trees, among whlph might be named the Huntsman, need almost no trimming back to compel the forming of a l^w head, for they have a drooping habit anyway. This diversity of habit of growth has as yet received very little attention from ap­ ple growers. Rome Beauty makes a thick, dense head, and this tree has to have its top shaped by trimming out some of the branches. The Minklin, however, has a straggling habit of growth and needs to have its limbs trimmed at the tips some, if It is to form a head dense enough for its own protection. It Is best, according to my belief, to leave the branches quite dense on the side that catches most of the winter sunlight, as in this way injury from sunscald is avoided. The best orchard I knew of in York state when I lived there, was always a bog pasture, and my brother has an orchard there now that has been a hog pasture for 30 years and no orchard there neats It bearing fruit, says an Illinois correspondent of the Prairie Farmer. Last year we barreled 280 barrels and the year before they bar­ reled over 600 barrels, 1 set out the orchard 48 years ago. 1 saw but one dead tree tn it, at Rambo. When It was set out 1 trimmed ail the branches off as high as my chin, and if it went above the top of my head, cut the top off, bo there were five to seven branch­ es all of a height Mt two rods apart. Now the limbs meet and the trees bear. JO to 50 bushels each year. This is the month we invoice and being and 15 . J. W. Armstrong, Priv. Co. 1,16th Mieh. Inft. Wm. Boston, Corp. Co. H, 2LH.h Mich..

' _ It Is possible before the railroad as­ sessments are completed February.15, some agents df the state may make a showing as to certain of the assess­ ments. It is said that, with the ex­ ception of three large railroad com­ panies. most of ’the. railroads are as­ sessed practically at the figures given by Prof. Copley and Prof. Adams one year ago. At least the differences, with the exception of the three roads referred to, are slight. It Is alleged that, notwithstanding a slight In­ crease in the assessment of the Mich­ igan Central main line, the valuation fixed by the state tax commission is barely 70 per cent,, of the estimate of Cooley and Adams, while the Pere Marquette Is assessed at only about 50 per cent, of the Cooley and Adams figures. The other road that It is al; leged haa been favored Is the Chica­ go & Northwestern, which has a large mileage in the upper peninsula. It is stated that If these three roads were assessed on the same basis as the other railway properties the total as­ sessed valuation of the-railroads would be about $250,000,000 Instead of $210,­ 000.000.

BUtfflFUL HOME WEDDING SUICIDED IN MILK WAGON SOLEMNIZED THIS FORENOON TOOK DOSE OF CARBOLIC ACID CHURCH WEDDING". A very pretty church wedding oc­ curred at St Cyril's church in thia village Tuesday morning' at nine o’clock, when Miss Margaret Tojiin, the-popular daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Tobin of North West Vermont­ ville was united in marriage to Jacob Maurer of Maple Grove, the ceremony being performed by Rev. Fr. J. A. Connor-of Hastings, and was a vary pretty and impressive service. - The bride was attended by Miss '.Mary Abfalter of Lake Odessa and the groom by Herman Maurer of thia village, the church being prettily decorated for the occasion. • • After the services the happy couple with relatives and friends repaired to the home of Peter Maurer, in Maple Grove, where an elaborate wedding breakfast was served. The bride is a very estimable young lady, loved and' respected by her many friends, ‘while the groom is also well known, having always been a resident of Maple Grove township. They will be[at home to their many friends at their home in Maple Grove in a short time, and will have the best wishes of a large circle of friends for their happiness and prosperity. RAILWAY COMMISSION. Senator Andrew Fyfe, of Grand Rapids, will introduce to the Michigan legislature during the week, his bill for establishing a railway commission in Michigan. His measure is planned after the laws in effect in Wisconsin and Ohio, and he made a trip to Madison recently to secure data. The senator proposes a commission of three members at an annual salary of 85,000 each. He has not decided whturfier it is best to make the offices elective or appointive. In regard to theoniigsof the commission, Senator Fyfe says his bill will outtine a com­ mission,' similar to the interstate com­ mission, with similar powers, so far as it is possible, for state instead of interstate traffic. If the commission is made an ap­ pointive one, it is understood Gov. Warner will favor the bill. He de­ sires, so it is said, that Railway Com­ missioner Glasgow be president of the proposed body, and will not favor an elective board. ■ FARM HOUSE BURNED. The house on the farm of George Rowlader, four miles north and two miles west of Nashville, was burned to the ground Tuesday afternoon. Tlie house was occupied by Clarence Graves and family. It is presumed that the fire caught upstairs from whore the stove-pipe entered the chimney and had gamed considerable headway •’before it was discovered. Mr. Graves was working in the woods about a mile distant when the fire broke out: his wife and children were in the house and dis­ covered it about tlie same time as the neighbors and passersby. A good share of the contents from the lower part of the house was removed, but everything’up' stairs and in the cellar was consumed. There was no in­ surance on either the house or con­ tents and the loss will fall heavily upon Mr. Graves, who is a poor man. The neighbors have taken the family in, however, and will not let them suffer. • BERT LOWDER MARRIED. The following from the Sylvan GrOve .(Kansas) News, will be good news to Bert’s niany friends here, who will wish him all possible happiness. “Ira H. Lowder of Lincoln and Miss Ora Weians of Pottersburg, were united in marriage at the Ash Grove parsonage by Rev C. E. Harris on Tuesday, January 22.1907. The bride is well’ known to this neighborhood and will lie missed here by many. The groom is not so well known as he has been in this country only about two years; he is a carpenter of no -small ability which his work will show. This couple will go to Lincoln to commence housekeeping in the home which he has prepared during the summer and fall of last year. We join with their many friends in wish­ ing them all the happiness to be had.” A rural telephone company was thia week organized by fanners of Maple Grove township, and twelve members have already joined. A. D. Wolf was made president and A. O. Bivens secretary and treasurer. The republican county convention met at Hastings last Friday and nomi­ nated Burton Perry of Hastings for county school commissioner. Probate Judge Charles M. Mack was elected chairman of the county committee. The delegation to the state convention at Grana Rapids today was comprised of E. V. Smith, W. H. Schantz, M. McCallum, Wm. Chase, Roy Thorpe, Charles Baughman, Sylvester Greusel and P. A. Sheldon. John De Bolt of Jackson, a brakes­ man on a way freight, was quite seriously injured here last Saturday while engaged at his work. One oar was on a side track and Mr. DeBoll was standing beside it and when an­ other car passed by on the main track there was not sufficient room and he was jammed between the two cars, hurting him internally but no bonea were broken. He was taken to Jack­ son and is now getting along nicely and will probably soon be as well as ever. _____ That the country around Nashville is a stock producing country is attest­ ed by the amount of money paid for stock by the several stock buyers of Nashville. During the year 1906 one buyer, F. J. Feighner, riaid out 872,­ 506.00 to the farmers Tor live stock. The four montix'ending January 31, he paid out 842,605.00 for stock. Thia sum went into the hands of the farmers within a trading radius of Nashville, and considering the fact that there are several other buyers here, the actual v mount paid the farmers for stock in this community would almost startle you. �Uncooked Meat is Very Dangerous _ OBITUARY.

Monument to Heroes—•House Falls In Attempt to Fix Four-Cent Street Car Rate for City of Washing­ ton. . - Washington, Feb. 12.—The senate Monday passed the army, appropria­ tion bill carrying 181*600,000. The amendment which permitted the gov-’ ernment to accept reduced, rates on qrmy supplies, and permitted officers and enlisted men to accept reduced transportation, was defeated by a point of order interposed by Senator McCumber, after the day had been spent In its discussion. . An amendment offered by Senator Dick increasing by 20 per cent, the pay of officers and enlisted men. was defeated by a point of order made by Senator Hale. Amendments were accepted to build monuments to- revolutionary officers as follows: To Gen. John Stark, an equestrian statue at Manchester, N. H., 140,000; a statue to Gen. Nathaniel Green at Guilford courthouse, N. C., 115,000; a statue to Gen. James Schrivner at Midway, Gt., $5,000. Senator Carter secured the adoption of an amendment to the bill placing William H. Crook on the retired list as a major. Mr. Crook served as a pri­ vate through the civil war, and ever since has been employed as a clerk at the White House. Four Cent Rate In Washington. The house, acting as the* common council far the District of Columbia, devoted the day to district legislation. One -bill, permitting thb Baltimore & Washington Transit company of Mary­ land to enter the District of Columbia, gave the friends of lower street car fares an opportunity to pass an amendment fixing the’flat fare at four cents and compelling the company to sell eight tickets for a quarter. In committee of the whole this amend­ ment was adopted 86 to 55. When the bill came before the house on final passage this amendment was defeated by a few votes. The friends of a re­ duction in street car fares, realizing that their forces had been decimated, made the point of "no quorum" and Speaker Cannon, realizing the futility of a call of the house, declared the body adjourned. Mr. James, of Kentucky, precipi­ tated the debate and was supported by Messrs. Madden of Illinois, Sims af Tennessee, Shackleford of Missouri, and Clark of Missouri, who said that if “Tom" Johnson, of Cleveland, never did anything else than make a fla* three-cent rate for the street cars of that city, “he ought to have a monu­ ment as high as Washington's.” Ask Money for Canal Work. Washington, Feb. 9.—Secretary Taft appeared before the house committee on appropriations Friday to explain the appropriation of $25,000,000 which the isthmian canal commission has asked to have Included in the civil sundry appropriation bill, now under consideration. The secretary of war was accompanied by Chairman T. P. Shoots, of the-isthmian canal commis­ sion; D. W. Ross, the canal purchasing agent; J. B. Bishop, secretary to the commission, and R. R. Rogers, general counsel to the commission. Much of the general discussion be­ fore the committee concerned the pro­ posed canal contract and Secretary Taft expressed the opinion tfipt the public generally prefers the contract system, as it believes the government can do work cheaper in that manner. However, the appropriation for the canal will not be affected through the failure to grant a contract, as the pro­ vision has been made in the bill that the money is to be available for canal work regardless of whether the gov­ ernment does the work itself or lets it out to a contractor. The proposed appropriation is de­ sired chiefly for the completion of the equipment on the isthmus, and as the government proposes furnishing the equipment to any contractor, it was explained by the canal officials that the allowances for this purpose should be liberal. Many Pension Bills Passed. A new high record In the way of the passage of private pension bills was made by the house Friday when 725 bills were passed In an hour and a half. The naval appropriation bill carry­ ing $95,426,000 was taken up and un­ der the order of general debate, speeches were made by Mr. Lamar of Florida on the "railroad rate bill," Mr. Higgins of Connecticut favoring the creation of the White Mountain and Apalachian forest reserves and Mr. Mondell of Wyomlngron the "limita­ tions of federal authority" and the withdrawal of coal lands from entry.

The agricultural college is allowed one-tenth of a mill of the general taxes, with a limitation of >100,000 in lieu of all other appropriations. Last session this limit was removed for two years and the institution has been getting about >159,000 a year. From what has been saved an engineering and class room building is now being erected. Now the board wants to have a general building to cost about >100,000. Representative Schantz intro­ duced a bill amending the law so as to permanently remove the limit and give the college the whole amount of the one-tenth mill tax. It was favor­ ably reported out by the Michigan ag­ ricultural committee and now goes to the ways and means committee for consideration, with every indication that it will be passed. —---Suggest Tax Apportionment. Before adjournment the State Asso­ ciation of Supervisors adopted a reso­ lution in favor of the apportionment of a portion of the money derived by the state from taxes on corpora­ tions to the general expenses of the state government. It was suggested that the subject be given considera­ tion by the state constitutional conven­ tion. It Is the idea of the association, expressed in a resolution, to Incorpor­ ate the State Supervisor*’ association under a law to be passed by the legis­ lature so that a committee from the association may officially appear be­ fore the state tax commission and be beard with reference to railroad as­ sessments.

Warner Is preparing a mass of information bearing upon the proposi­ tion he Is backing to establish a bind­ er twine plant at Jackson prison.

G. had generally been supposed that the note read: "The b------is here.” Mrs. Thaw testified Monday that “the b------” meant "the "blackguard,” ns Thaw always referred to Stanford White, whom she bad seen on the bal­ cony of the cafe. ■ The other essential point Mrs. Thaw was allowed to bring out in her tes­ timony was the statement that the de­ fendant never carried a pistol except in New York city. She was asked many other questions, embodying vari­ ous stories she had discussed- with Thaw. Including the alleged fate -of a girl known to them as “the p!c girl," at .the hands of Stanford White, but Mr. Jerome blocked every question with a sustained objection. Jerome Blocks Dr. Wagner. After compelling the defense to go into the taking of expert testimony as to Thaw’s insanity by his objections to Mrs. Thaw's testimony, Mr. Jerome next proceeded to block the testimony of Dr. Wagner as to the results ot his six visits to the defendant in the Tombs and his tests as to the latter’s mental condition. Dr. Wagner was not allowed to go into the conversations he had had with the defendant nor the conclusions he had reached from these conversations. He was confined by Mr. Jerome’s continuous fusillade of objections to stating what he actually observed, and he declared his observa­ tions wdre so closely Interlaced with his questioning of the defendant that he did not know if he could separate them. A long argument over the point re­ sulted In Mr. Delmas withdrawing any further questions as to the tests^ con­ tenting himself with asking- Dr. Wag­ ner to give his opinion on the hypo thetical question covering the evi­ dence in the case. The question was almost record-breaking In . length—a comprehensive resume tha_entlre case, including Mrs. Thaw's personal narrative. Says White Drugged Girl. In his hypothetical question Mr. Del­ mas accused Stanford White of hav­ ing “drugged” the Nesbit girl and of having attempted to renew "communi­ cation or relations" with her subse­ quent to her marriage. . Mr. Jerome objected to these features of the question and it was amended to em­ brace the evidence of record as to the disputed points. It wa^ on'the amend­ ed question that Dr. Wagner gave it as his opinion that Harry Thaw did not know, because of defective reason, that his act in killing Stanford White was wrong. Here the expert’s direct examination was ended and he stepped aside for cross-examination later. When he is taken in hand by Mr. Jerome he will have to give detailed reasons for his opinion. Dr. Evans of the New Jersey state hospital for the insane will be the first witness for the defense Tues­ day. A new rule by Justice Fitzgerald, barring from the courtroom all women not engaged in active newspaper work went into effect Monday. Many of those who, bedecked in gay cos­ tumes, had occupied front seats here­ tofore, were on hand bright and early in the morning, but to no avail.

It LO G S H. R. DICKINSON Kansas City. Mo.. Feb? 11.—Unable to resist the strange power which Dr. E. H. Merwin exercised oxer her, ac­ cording to statements she made to friends, Miss Maud Slater -Saturday shot and killed tbe physician and com­ mitted suicide. The bodies- were found in Dr. iMerwln's office. A re-’ volver was In the woman's hand, and the police say there Is no doubt she shot the doctor and ended her own’ life. The tragedy has brought to light a strange story. Friends of Miss Slater say she and Merwin had been sweethearts for four years. The girl told-Miss Leah Thomas that the doc­ tor had wronged her. Miss Thomas says that Miss Slater told her she was unable to resist the power of Dr. Merwin’s will. When­ ever he summoned her to his office* by means ot this influence which she believed almost superhuman, she said, she was utterly without the power to resist. Reproaches Self In Vain. After having visited the doctor. Miss Thomas said. Miss Slater reproached herself bitterly, and declared she would. resist him in future, but each time she was. unable to do so. "She went to his office last Wednes­ day," said Miss Thomas, who was a close friend of Miss Slater, "and upon her return tore her hair and became almost insane In rkntl-ng against him. She said she had.a pistol at home and that she was going to kill him.” Miss Slater told her friends that she and Dr. Merwin had been engaged and that he had broken the engage­ ment. Dr. Merwin's friends take a different view of the case. They say the physi­ cian had been annoyed by the girl, who telephoned him and wrote letters to him frequently. The doctor him­ self said some time ago that Miss Slater, through jealousy, had caused to be published an announcement of his engagement to another woman, which had no foundation. The physi­ cian's friends say they believe the girl was actuated merely by jealousy, and that Dr. Merwin had not wronged her. Parents Suspect Nothing. The aged parents of the girl, who live nt 3633 Virginia avenue, when they were apprised of the death of their daughter several hours after the tragedy had occurred, said that she was a patient of Dr. Merwin, and that she bad announced before she left home Saturday that she intended to go to the doctor's office for treatment They knew nothing of any other rela­ tion than that of physician and patient existing between their daughter and Merwin. Dr. Merwin, who was 38 yeani old, was treasurer of a homeopathic col­ lege here, and had an’ extensive prac­ tice. He studied medicine and surg­ ery in London, and in 1898 he became the surgeon on the British steamship Sobo, which cruised around the South African coast hater he served in the same rapacity on the British steam­ ship Cabenda. He has spent most of his life in this city, where his parents live, and had been practicing here sev­ en years. Miss Slater was 22 years old. For Infants and Children.

He went to Mr. Furniss, who wrapped a rag around the injured member and then soaked it with turpentine. Durf ing the excitement of the evening Lew’s pipe went out; He stepped up; to the cigar case, took a match from the match box and -lighted it. He didn't think he should have used the other hand to light the match. • but he knows now that he did wrong. .As soon as the fire started on the match it caught the turpentine rag and the fun began. Of all the fantastic steps that were ever done at ah old fashioned “hoe down,” Lew had ‘em all. He did the “highland-fling." the “can can" and “serpentine" to ex­ pletives that would not look well in print, until the supply of turpentine on the rag was exhausted.

Jbe most Interesting feature of the enorBiou» a*le of. the Cooper preparations, bow going on in this city, is what lhe medicines are actually accomplishifig among lhe people pf Cincinnati. At the commencement of his visit here Mr. Cooper prophesied that dur­ ing tbe later part of his stay be would receive hundreds of callers dally who came simply to thank him for what the preparations had done. He also stated that stomach trouble is the foundation for a great many diseases and that his New Discovery, as it is called, would prove very effective in all cases of rheumatism simply by getting the stomach in working order. That this prophecy baa been fulfilled cannot be doubted after a half hour spent at the young man's headquar­ ters listening to what his callers have A reporter, who watched to asoertain, if possible, some light on tbe reasons for lhe immensity of Coop­ er’s success Interviewed about twenty of his callers yesterday afternoon. The statements made by those seen in­ dicate that physicians who claim that Cooper is merely a passing fad, have not looked into the facts. Some of these statements were as follows: Miss Sadie Middleton living at 1967 Central Avenue, upon being questioned, said: ‘ . ”I have been troubled with general weakness, dizziness, headache, sleep­ lessness and stomach disorders for a number of years, suffering all the time with my kidneys and back. I had tried a number of medicines and visit­ ed several doctors but none helped me. I heard on all sides of these Cooper remedies and decided to try them. Any one who says tbat they are not wonderful medicines, does not know what they are talking about. After I used lhe first bottle, I noticed a de­ cided improvement. I have taken three bottles of the New Discovery and I now feel as well as I ever have , in my life. I sleep and eat as I have not done for years, and I am happier COATS GROVE.

Doan's Kidney Pills will do this for you. They watch the kidneys and cure them when they're sick. Mr. Hilton A. Hogue, residing at 157 Taylor street, Coldwater, Mich., prop, of the barber shop on Monroe St., says:' “For eighteen months I had pains thru my loins and kidneys. It was such a heavy dull aching that I could not rest comfortably and felt as tired in the morning as at night. My back became so lame when at wprk that it was torture for me to stoop or lift anything heavy, the kidney se­ cretions were Irregular, highly color­ ed, and I was feeling miserable all the time. 1 saw Doan’s Kidney Pills recommended so emphatically by prominent people that 1 concluded to test them, so I procured a box.

Chronic Constipation Cured. Lansing.—The bills of some of the legislators taking trips to the north­ ern peninsula which were not In­ dorsed on a basis of five dollars a d>ay for hotels, have now been indorsed on a basis of three dollars a day. The senate passed an appropriation blil of |5.000 for the west-Michigan fair at Grand Rapids. This is the first appropriation ever made for this fair. Appropriate Nine Millions. The Mackinac Island park board, which has presented one bill placing the park wholly under state police and outside of village or-county control, this year has made another innovation in asking an appropriation from the state,. 115,000 for the two years. The board met in Gov. Warner’s office, but the governor would not commit him: self on the appropriation question. The appropriations to be made this year will, in any case, be probably the very heaviest in the history of the state, and not all requests can be granted. A new normal school is de­ manded. Tho tuberculosis sanltorlum requires a large appropriation. Every department has prepared Ingenious salary raise plans. The labor depart­ ment the state library, most of all the highway department, must be expand­ ed. New buildings are demanded by a dozen Institutions. The binder twine plant must be established at Jackson, and the burned 1100,000 block rebuilt Where the appropriations two years ago were 17,000,000 they may reach >9,000,000 this year. Therefore the governor does not commit himself on every appropriation scheme that ap­ pears. New Labor Bureau Bill. Labor Commissioner Malcolm J; McLeod baa prepared a bill Introduced in the senate by Senator Russell of Kent, bringing al) employment bureaus in the state under the supervision of the department of labor. A license fee of |50 is required in cities of 40,000 ormore, of leas population >25, and bond fpr >500 in all cases. The license is to be revocable for cause. The fees of bureaus shall be one dollar, return­ able after one week if employment is not secured. In addition to this state free employment bureaus shall be es­ tablished in every city of 40,000 or more, along the lines of the present Detroit bureau. .

May Submit Question to Voter*. Atty. Gen. Bird has advised Gov. Warner, it is rejtorted, that his plan to establish a binding twine plant at the Jackson prison is not good policy, in view of the prohibition in the con­ stitution against tho teaching of me­ chanical trades In the prison. The supreme court ruled rigidly on that provision and it is anticipated that a judge would declare the making of binding twine just as much of a me­ chanical trade as broom-making, which was ruled against. There is an exception that Gov. Warner evidently relies upon, however, which allows the teaching of trades In the "manufac­ ture of those. articles ot which the chief supply for home consumption is imported from other states or coun­ tries'." While this makes it clear that there is no legal objection at present, it is declared that at any moment such a condition might appear that the prohibition would become, operative and render the plant valueless. This would result from the establishment by a private corporation of a factory in Michigan tbat would bring the chief supply for home consumption -within the state. It is'hinted that the binder twine and harvester trust would be Just the one to do such a thing. It hasn’t done so in other states, for Michigan Is the only one in the union having such a constitutional provision. A course of action to meet this ob­ jection has been suggested, it is claimed, and this would be for the legislature, to submit the question of teaching trades in prison to the voters at-the spring election. The officials of the attorney general’s department are not willing to be interviewed on the subject Railroad Pleat Heard. The larger railroads of the state have now been represented before the state committee In the interests of re­ duced assessments. ’J. Blair Simpson, for the’Pere Marquette, asked for a re­ duction of its assessment from >28.250,000 to >26,000,000, or >1,000,000 less than the assessment of last year, it was claimed that the capitalized net earnings offer a safe basis for tax­ ation, and that if assessed on that basis the Pere Marquette should be given the reduction asked for. The at­ torney said that the property of the company ,has depreciated in value since last yeaf, and that instead of In­ creasing its assessment it should be reduced. The Lake Shore railroad was assessed this year at >18,817,000, as against >17,850,000 last year. D. N. Doughman. of Cleveland, protested that the Increase was too much. A. B. Eldridge objected to the assessment of the Duluth, South Shore & Atlantic railway, the assessment being an in­ crease of >150,000 over that of the preceding year. Republicans Nominate Ticket. Gov. Warner was the . controlling factor In the Republican state conven­ tion at Grand Rapids, when his fol­ lowers seated the Leland delegation from Wayne county after a hot fight The vote was 323 to 302 for the Bar­ bour contestants.

Coolie Labor Shut Out—Passage of Immigration Bill Bettles the <Controversy—Toklo Disposed to Accept : Plan Quietly. Washington, Feb. 19. — Japanese children are to be admitted to tho white schools of San Francisco under certain restrictions; skilled and un­ skilled laborers coming from.Japan are to be barred from the mainland of the United Stated and American la­ borers, skilled, and unskilled, are to be excluded from Japan. This is the basis of the agreement between President Roosevelt, Secre­ tary Root, Mayor Schmitz and the San Francisco school board as an adjust­ ment of the anti Japanese agitation brought about by the segregation of Japanese children in the schools of San Francisco. The agreement means that the schools of San Francisco will be con­ ducted in the same manner as they were before the board of education adopted the - resolution last October providing for the segregation of the Japanese, except, that adult Japanese who are in primary grades must con­ tinue to attend the oriental schools and that Japanese children under 16 years of age will be admitted to classes .with white children of their own ages. ’ While the resolfition of the school board, as amended reads. "Children of alien birth," it is freely admitted by Mayor Schmitz and his associates that tho resolution, will apply only to the Japanese children and that the change in the wording was to make It plain to the Toklo government that no discrimination was intended against Japanese children. Coolie Labor excluded. Assistant City Attorney Williams of San Francisco, who has acted as legal adviser to Mayor .Schmitz and the board of education since negotiations have been pending in Washington. Monday night said: "The only con­ cession we have made is to admit Japanese children to the white schools while in return the administration has brought about the exclusion of Jap­ anese laborers-from this country.” Mayor Schmitz said: "This is only a temporary agree­ ment President Roosevelt has given us direct and positive assurances that he will at once begin negotiations with Japan for the purpose of bring­ ing about a new treaty that will ex­ clude Japanese laborers, skilled and unskilled, from continental United States." . Toklo Takes It Quietly. Toklo, Feb. 19.—The passage of President Roosevelt's passport bill by Aie senate of the United States was seml-officially announced Tuesday morning. The leading newspapers ex­ plained that this action by the United States government is perfectly legiti­ mate and in accordance with treaty stipulations. It is also pointed out that the promise of success of the ju­ dicial procedure in the school ques­ tion is lessening. The newspapers thus far have refrained from making comment on this latest news from Washington. It is believed that the immigration companies will combine to attack the government’s attitude if an agree­ ment is reached with America on the basis proposed. It is thought that the general public, while- regretting the solution of the San Francisco school question taking this form, will calmly resign itself to the situation.

I knew he was a foul creature, destroying the mother* and daughters of America, but I want­ ed through legal means to bring him to trial. I wanted to get him into court—to bring him to Justice. But Providence took, charge of it; it was an act of Providence." This is Harry K. Thaw's own story of the killing of Stanford White. It was told by him to Dr. Britton D. Evans, the alienist, last August in the Tombs. Monday Dr. Evans repeated the prisoner's words to the jury which is trying Thaw for his life. District' Attorney Jerome fought hard last week against the introduc­ tion of this evidence, which the de­ fense believes is conclusive proof that Thaw did not know his act was wrong. Once the testifying physicians bad declared that in their opinion Thaw was insane at the time he made the statements to them, however, the rules of evidence permitted the intro­ duction of the -prisoner's words. Will Placed Before Jury. In further bulwarking their conten­ tion that Thaw was insane when he killed White, the defendant's counsel succeeded Monday in placing before the jury the will executed by Thaw the night of ’his marriage in April, 1905, and a codicil to tbe will execut­ ed at the same time. Again Mr. Jerome fought the evi­ dence, but he significantly withdrew hts objections after Dr. Evans had given it as his expert opinion that Thaw was insane at the time he ex«j cuted the will. The fact, that the dis­ trict attorney seems disposed to let in testimony of every character provided there is a preliminary opinion from the witness that- the man was ot un­ sound mind at the time to which the testimony refers, was taken, as further indicating that Mr. Jerome may, at the psychological moment, if he deems his hand strong enough, de­ mand the appointment of a commis­ sion to pass upon Thaw's state of mind at the present moment Contents of Will and Codicil. The will and the codicil, as read the jurors Monday, were offered in evidence as cumulative testimony of Thaw's mental unsoundness prior the killing of White. In his will Thaw provided that his executors should set apart the sum of >50,000 for the investigation of his death in case of a violent or suspicious' end, and for the prosecution of the persons suspected of having had a hand in bls taking off. In the codicil Thaw left to a law­ yer tn Pittsburg the sum ot >7,500 to be used in securing legal redress from Stanford White and one other person, whose name was not allowed to be read, for the benefit of four young women who, Thaw declared, had been the victims of "degrading assaults'* in a house "furnished and used for or­ gies by Stanford White and other in­ human scoundrels.'* The names of the four young women were mention­ ed by Thaw* but were not made pub­ lic. - Thaw also bequeathed sums of >2,500 each to Rev. Dr. Charles H. Park­ hurst, Anthony Comstock and a law­ yer In his codicil to be used In discovStanford White and securing redress for the women. • Two other physicians will take the stand Tuesday. Drs. Hammond and Jelllffe, and It is said that it will be part ot their function to detail the improvement In Thaw's mental condi­ tion during the period of his confinement in the Tombs, declaring that the stress which caused the mental explo­ sion was removed with the putting away of Standford White. It was also said that Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw might go on the stand Tuesday after­ noon to complete her story. Dolmas Doesn’t Quit Thaw. New York, Feb. 18.—Late Sunday night it was stated that through the intercession of Mra. William Thaw, mother of Harry K. Thaw, the' dissen­ sion between counsel which threat­ ened the disruption of the forces of the defense has ceased, and D. M. Delmaa, the California lawyer, will continue aa the principal in the ex­ amination of witnesses and. when the evidence la all in. make the closing plea for the defense. It was added that Mr. Delmas' lay partner, Henry T. McPlke, would not figure actively in the future oourt proceedings. Tbe following statement was credit­ ed to Mr. Delmas: "AH statements that I Intend to withdraw as counsel or that I have been asked to with­ draw, in the case of Harry Thaw, are without foundation and absolutely false. I will be in court Monday as usual ready to perform my duties.’* Vllatte to Sus for Libel.

You can not begin better than by getting a “J. H. C.” Manure Spreader for hauling and spreading manure. This is the very beet spreader on the market and will make you from 25 to 50 per cent more from your manure than the old way of handl­ ing, which means more dollars in your pocket. I also have the “Blue Bell” cream separator which leads all separators. You should see this machine before you buy. You can have the privilege of trying it with any on the mar­ ket. When in need of wagons, buggies, or farm tools give me a call. . C. E.

VOLUME XXXIV z- Speculation In 1901, stock in one hundred and fifty speculative companies was advertised. Careful inquiry reveals that every one of these companies has failed, with one exception, -Thisrone exception is paying two per cent a year, the stock being worth exactly onehalf what it was worth five,years ago. Think of the millions of money lost in these one hundred and fifty companies 1 They all promised great profits. It was said of them that they could not lose, yet every one of them lost; every dollar invested in these companies was thrown away, with the exception, noted; in that one exception, only one-half of the amount invested was thrown away. The wise wage earner will not jump at every get-rich-quick scheme promulgated by grafters but will pick out a good sound safe bank and systematically save a portion of his earnings. If he se­ lected this bank he would be assured of safety and would draw interest on his savings, 3% compounded quarterly.

Lansing.—A bib for the appoint­ ment of a special expert railroad com­ mission/ the first bill under the consti­ tution of 1908, the first bill to have direct relation to the instrument not yet in existence, has been announced. The legislature of 1909 is hereby an­ ticipated. The -bill Introduced by Representative J. B. Knight is pre­ sented from the view that the new constitution will leave greater •powers to the leglslatuK* than does the pres­ ent one. There will be, it is thought, far less reservation and restriction of power by the constitution, and on tax­ ation it .is thought die legislature's .power will be full and unrestrained, if Michigan follows the new constitu­ tions of Wisconsin and New Vork and the trend of our own -amendments. The bill provides for the appoint­ ment of a commission of 15 members, five namqd bythe governor and five by each house of the legislature. They are to make a thorough general in­ quiry, having full powers to call wit­ nesses and take testimony, into the whole subject of taxation. The New York commission, which has just re­ ported to the present senate, is not model of organisation. The conhnisslon is to report to the legislature of 1909, the first legislature under the new constitution. With the data be­ fore them the legislature of 1909. should, the promoters of this plan believe, be able to devise some settle­ ment of the whole taxation problem. There will always and forever be a ’ wrangling between railroads and other taxpayers about taxes, until something is deyised that will become apparent to all is just. There is one scheme which Is much talked of here suggested by those who favor a spe­ cie) commission. This is the separa­ tion of state and county taxes. This is the so-called Wisconsin plan, by which the taxes from the railroads support the state, and county taxes support the counties. Some would have saloon and o^ier like taxes shar­ ed with the state os now, but other­ wise the county alone should assess and collect general taxes. Many Appointments Made. Qov. Warner sent to the senate the appointment of Dr.- Dayton Parker of Detroit as member of the state board of corrections and charities. W. A. Dohany, well known Detroit drug­ gist. becomes a member of the state board of pharmacy. The following other appointments were made: James V. Barry, commissioner of in­ surance; Mary C.

It aims to do away with the statute labor’ system- and substitutes cash road taxes therefor. It provides for two taxes. A cash road repair tax to be spread only on the property outside incorporated villages, on which none can vote but those wbo live out­ side, and which must be expended for repairs on the roads benefiting the property taxed. The other is highway Improvement tax which is to be spread on all property in the town­ ships, and can be used for repairing roads or bridges anywhere tn the township. It provides for one town­ ship highway comDjdssloner and one overseer of highways, wh® serves as deputy township highway commission­ er, these officers replacing from ten to 50 officers In each township, who are known as pathmasters under the present law. Marquette.—Three hundred and ten prisoners are confined in the Mar­ quette penitentiary, according to the annual report of Warden Russell, an increase of ten compared with,the number in durance on the correspond­ ing date a year ago. There have been no escapes from the prison for over two years. There is now a larger pro­ portion of long term and life prisoners thao at any previous time. Twentynine convicts are serving life 'sen­ tences. The bulk of these have been sent from lower Michigan counties, and are criminals of the more daring and determined character. Year’s Railroad Tax Rolls. The state tax commission turned Over to the auditor general for collecdon the railroad tax rolls for this year. The companies may pay their taxes at any time, although no pen­ alty will be added tor nonpayment until after May 1. It la understood that the Wisconsin & Michigan rail­ road is preparing to again contest the payment of Its taxes on the ground that they are excessive. Last year this company claimed It was assured that its assessment would not he increased, as it actually was from $1,500,00 to $1,800,000, 'and commenced suit to have the tax set aside. This year the company has been assessed nt $1,500,­ 000, and it is still dissatisfied with the valuation and will again contest pay­ ment of the tax. Stanton.—Mrs. Cora Stebbins Couri­ er. aged 24 years, of Sheridan, a vil­ lage eight miles from here, is in. cus­ tody of Sheriff Caffield, charged with poisoning her husband. Albert Couri­ er. aged 28, who died suddenly at their home. Considerable mystery surrounded the death of Courier, and the physician who attended him de­ clared that he showed symptoms re­ sembling strychnine poisoning. It is said that Mrf. Courier recently asked d friend to purchase some strychnine, saying that sha wanted to poison rats.' When placed under arrest, Mrs. Courier said that sue was glad of It, because "there has been so much talk the past few days, and now they will have to prove It.” Beyond protesting her Innocence, the woman ‘ refuses to talk. Courier's stomach. has been sent to-Grand Rapids for analysis. Boilers Not Inspected. Labor Commissioner McLeod has found that 6.409 steam boilers are in use in the state, and.of that numtier 4,571 aro insured. This leaves 1,838 that are not Insured. Mr. McLeod de­ clares that the danger to life and prop­ erty does not He in the boilers that are insured and regularly inspected, but in the 1,838 that are not given this attention. In the 7,770 factories 3,227 use steam power, and the total strength of this is 744,891 horse power. There were 1,069 using electric power, 949 gas or gfisoline, and 219 water power. Steam power does about 80 per cent, of the work. Railroads Will Fight Bill. The railroads will put the stiffest campaign they know how against the proposed two-cent fare bill. Instead of relying upon the usual plan of lob­ bying against the proposed legisla­ tion and doing business whenever it became absolutely necessary, it is said the railroads this time have hit upon a new plan. This plan is to force the army of employes through­ out the state to fight this bill on the threat of having their wages reduced if the measures pass. Of course the railroads do not put the matter in the shape of a threat, but the substance is there. NOTICE OF COMMISSIONERS ON CLAIMS.

Speaker Whelan takes a hopeful' view of the future, being convinced that the members will buckle down and begin work on general legislation. Deaths From Pneumonia In January.

ORDEAL OF EVELYN THAW NEARS END KANSAS LEGISLATORS SLOW. Must Prolong Session to Finish Their Important Business. _ * Topeka, Kan., Feb. 26. — The regu­ lar 50 days' session of the legislature contemplated by the state constitu­ tion comes to an end Tuesday, but both houses will remain in session un­ til about March 9, in order to finish the work which they have before them. Gov. Hoch Monday transmitted to both houses of the legislature a special message calling the attention of the members to the fact that, al­ though the time allotted to them has already expired, not a single piece of important general legislation has so far passed both houses. In the mes­ sage the governor urges upon the' members the necessity of pushing through the important bills now be­ fore them before Anal adjournment is taken. JUSTIFIES ALTON DEALS HARRIMAN EXPLAINS ANO DE­ FENDS THE TRANSACTIONS. Tells Interstate Commerce Commie• slon About Financial Operations of Himself and Associates. New York, Feb. 26.—E. H. Harri­ man, master of the Union Pacific sys­ tem, spent Monday In a recital of por­ tions of the Intimate history of the financial operations of himself and his Associates before the Interstate commerce commission, which in behalf of the United States government is investigating consolidations and combinations of carriers, relations be­ tween carriers and community of In­ terest therein, their rates, facilities and practices. : Special counsel for the government made particular attack upon the reorganization and financing of the Chi­ cago & Alton fallroad by the Harriman syndicate, and their action, with a challenge by counsel for the rail­ roads of the right of the interstate commerce commission to inquire into the private transactions of an indi­ vidual, constituted the two chief events of the day’s proceedings. By direction of counsel Mr. Harri­ man declined to tell what proportion of the nreferred stock of the Alton sold to the Union Pacific belonged to him Individually and the way was paved for taking the question Into the federal courts. The point raised in­ volves a material limitation upon the Inquisitorial power of the commission and is of serious Importance to the whole question of Interstate corpora­ tion investigation. Anticipation of sensational testi­ mony from Mr. Harriman and sharp encounters between Mr. Harriman and special counsel for the govern­ ment failed of realization. There was an effort to show by Harriman’s tes­ timony and the records of the com­ pany that there had 'been an enor­ mous inflation of the stock securities and liabilities of the Alton: that the Harriman syndicate had taken un­ fair profits by declaring a dividend of 30 per cent from the proceeds of the first sale of bonds, amounting to >40.000,000; that the syndicate had sold Itself the bonds at an unreasonably low figure only to resell them at enormous profit; that the Harriman syndicate had in the Alton capitalized the losses of former stockholders In the road and the money which had been spent by the old management for betterments over a period of ten years and already charged to operat­ ing expenses; that the books of the company had been doctored, and that for an Increase of the stock and lia­ bilities from roughly >40,000,000 to about >116,000,000 there was nothing to show except an expenditure of >22,000,000 in Improvements on the prop­ erty. Mr. Harriman's testimony was a denial of ali the charges and toward the dose of the afternoon he made an extended explanation and defense of the entire transaction, which he con­ tended was fully justified by the con­ ditions and circumstances of the time and which he asserted had been con­ ducted entirely In the open. KANSAS LOSES "KATY” SUIT. Supreme Court Decides State Is Not Owner of Certain Land.

G.PWDOOCk, Urbana, O. of the estate. New York, Feb. 26.—Except for one brief moment, Mrs. Evelyn Nesbit Thaw had a decidedly easy day of It Monday during the continuation of her cross-examination by District At­ torney Jerome. When adjournment was taken the prosecutor announced •hat he had practically concluded with the witness. Mrs. Thaw will be temporarily ex­ cused Tuesday morning to enable Mr. Jerome to Introduce Abraham Hum­ mel to Identify a photographic copy of. the affidavit Evelyn Nesbit la al­ leged tq have signed, and which charges Thaw with many cruelties during their 1903 trip to Europe. The district attorney got the contents of the affidavit before the jury Monday afternoon by- reading certain of its statements in the form of questions and asking Mrs. Thaw If she told such things to Mr. Hummel. In each In­ stance she declared she had not. She also denied ever having signed such an affidavit, admitting that she had, however, signed some papers for White in the Madison Square tower of whose nature she was not aware. ' Confronted with Dr. FlinL It was during the morning session that Mr. Jerome played his strongest card of the day. Mrs. Thaw had de­ nied most positively that she had ever been to see a Dr. Carlton Flint with Jack Barrymore. "Call Dr. Flint," ■ commanded Mr. Jerome to a court attendant. The doctor entered from the wltness room and was escorted to within a few feet of the witness chair. “Did you ever see that man be­ fore?" Mr. Jerome asked Mrs. Thaw. The witness seemed just a bit startled, looked ’ quickly and Intently at the physician, then turned to Mr. Jerome and shook her head. "Never," she declared. Thaw was intensely, interested this Incident, and when It was over he turned to the newspaper men sit­ ting nearest him and whispered: "That man made a mistake In com­ ing here. He stood there a liar. Do yon catch the point?—a liar." Witness In Better Spirits. Mr. Thaw was In much better spirits when she took the stand Mon­ day and looked decidedly better phy­ sically than she did last week. She seemed thoroughly at home In the witness chair, and, with a footstool and back cushion appeared quite com­ fortable. She had all her wits with her and did not fare badly at the hands of the district attorney, who was more gentle In handling the wit­ ness. Instead of further hurting the cause of her husband. Mrs. Thaw managed to make two decided gains. When court adjourned last Thursday It ap­ peared from her own statements that she had used a letter of credit from Stanford White while touring in Eu­ rope and had turned the letter over to Thaw. Monday she explained that Thaw took |he letter of credit from her. saying the money was “poison­ ous" and neither she nor her -mother should touch IL and that he would provide them with funds. Whatever had been spent of the money, she de­ clared, was for her mother. Cablegrams Are Explained. The second point Mrs. Thaw made was concerning the cablegrams which Thaw Is said to have sent to Stanford White from London. It appeared Thursday that these cablegrams were requests to White to use his influence in keeping Mrs. Nesbit from “raising a row” and interfering with Evelyn’s continuing In company with Thaw. Mr. Jerome took up the subject again, but his questions elicited the informa­ tion that the letters did not concern Mrs. Thaw at all, but related to a man—a secretary of the American embassy—in London, who Mrs. Thaw said had “sneaked up to mamma's bedroom and insulted her.” She said the man had also Insulted her and that Thaw had gone in search of him, but failed to find him. Monday's proceedings dragged a great deal, and It was evident long before he announced the fact that Mr. Jerome was nearing the end of his cross-examination. Hummel to Go on Stand. Tuesday's proceedings, with Mr. Hummel on the stand, should be more Interesting. The defense, on cross­ examination, will attempt to discredit the witness, who Is under Indictment It may be late in the afternoon before Mrs. Thaw will again take the stand for Mr. Jerome's final questions which will have to do with the affi­ davit Should the defense decide to pro­ ceed with the redirect examination of Mrs. Thaw and Mr. Jeronje should take up the recross-examination. Mrs. Thaw may be kept upon the stand all of Wednesday and Thursday. Mrs. William Thaw, mother of the defendant and Mrs. Carnegie, his sister, were at the courthouse Mon­ day for the first time In ten days. From the district attorney's office came the assertion Monday that Mr. Jerome will not ask for a lunacy com­ mission. It is now stated that the dis­ trict attorney is willing to leave the entire matter tn the hands ^the jury.

The meeting called to order by the president and after the usual busi­ ness had been carried out the rneetix?g was adjourned for dinner, about 130 doing justice to a veritable feast. There were 200 present .at the after­ noon session, which opened with a song by the chib. An instrumental •election, “The Storm’’, by Miss Marian Thompson, was fine; she gave a second selection which was also greatly enjoyed. Mrs. Moore's paper written for the second anniversary of -the clubSvas very good as is everything that she writes, for the club. She said that kindness to each other was one*of the reasons why we have met with success and that we are greatly benefitted by the thoughts of others and that we should give more thought to the boys and girls on the farm than to the live Stock. Does a woman have as many­ labor-saving machines as her hus­ band? No. She compared the bar­ rel churn with the mower and reaper, saying that the churn after use had to. be washed and scalded before it was ready for use th*' next time, while the mower only had to lie put away and when wanted for. use again only had to l»e oiled. Edna Mayo rendered her flrst piece of music in public very nicely. She was given . an encore and responded with a second number. . ' Little Bertha Wing recited a very pleasing piece about the farmer, that brought forth hearty applause. The discussion. “Care and feed of stock on the fam) ’ was led by Will Cargo. He said he thought it a good plan to card 'cattle every day and to sell your oats and buy 'oil meal • for feed. Some others thought it a good plan to feed stock food, while others preferred oil meal’ rather than stock food, all agref*d it was best to keep'the animal growing from birth until ready for market.

The trouble with the theory that disease germs are transmitted in kisring is that people get aik,the diseases when they are too old to kiss.

After one has seen the fleetfootod deer running through the forests of northern Michigan it is not hard to understand just why inexperienced hunters sometimes have what the hunters call “buck fever,” but why a man. who claims t-o be a hunter, should lose his presence of mind over an innocent, harmless little hare is more than we can understand. A good story is related about a Nash­ ville man who went hunting rabbits recently. A ferrit had been placed in a groundhog hole to chase out a rab­ bit. The rabbit came all right and the man caught it; he was holding it up to show hi$ companions when a scratching sound in the hole told him another “bunny” was coming. He placed himself ready to catch the second one and when it came out drop­ ped the gun and rabbit he held and made a lunge for it. He missed it and both rabbits made good their escape.

Thia law will apply at once to all Mexican soldiers, and nearly all the surviving Union soldiers, for n man of 20 when the civil war dosed i* now 61. - Age a Ione, in these ca see gi ves a claim to a pension of 612 a month at •62 years or age, 615. a month at Io years, and *20 a month at 65 years and over. Pensioners now- receiving- less than thia allowance can get it increased on application. Those who ait re­ ceiving more are not affected by the new law. Claims for special ’ dis­ abilities may be prosecuted as before. This act sweeps away an immense amount of red tape and delay, aften running ipto years, to which appli­ cants for pensions have been subjected. It can be taken for granted that a vet­ eran past the- age of 62 is unfit for manual labor, and many of the medical examinations carried on have long been superfluous. Pensioners are dy-', ing at the rate of more than 40,000 a year, and the mortality in their ranks rs increasing. Only a few thousand survivers remain of the Mexican war, which" closed fifty-nine years ago. It is doubtful if tlie pension payments next year will materially exceed those of 1906.

Jefferson was a methodical man. keeping account of all- his expendi­ tures, and the ; allowed accounts kept while he was in the White House show that he spent 112.000 for liquors alone during his term of eight years, says a writer in the. Home Magazine. When we take Into consideration the fact that glasses clinked merrily around the cabinet table aa well as the dining table, and that an open buffet was kept for all callers, this amount is not surprising. Notwith­ standing the low prices. Jefferson Often spent as high as >50 on his small dinners, wine list not Included, and he was most particular about his wines and brandies. Jefferson's state dinners were usual­ ly limited to about 40 guests. The large dining room was not considered finished, so when his guests were numerous he had a long table placed In the center of the great east room, and dismal enough it must have been, with its bare walls, many windows and draughts and insufficient light from the candles, which dropped wax tears at every wind which blew up from the Potomac. No wonder Jeffer­ son and several of his successors looked forward dismally to the state affairs and cheerfully to the informal dinners.

KOCHER BROS The Knight’s rank team from Barry lodge, K. of P., of Hastings, came to Nashville Tuesday night and con­ ferred the work of the rank for Ivy lodge. The work was splendidly done and was very pleasing to the members of Ivy lodge. There were about twenty five of the Hastings boys in the party, and with the members of the local lodge about seventy sat down to a substantial supper served by Caterer Barker, after the work was finished. After tbe annual meeting of the Barry & Eaton insurance company at Charlotte last week the directors held a meeting and passed a resolution to the effect that the secretary’s office should continue to be maintained at Hastings. It is not hard to guess where the “inspiration’’ for this resolution* came from, but it is a safe bet that the office will remain in Nash­ ville. where it is now located. Mr. Smith, the newly elected secretary, went to Hastings last Friday and re­ turned with the books and other paraphernalia connected with the office aud says tbe office will remain here, just as he promised his sup­ porters, and the little act of revenge on tbe part of those who were dis­ gruntled at his election will avail them naught. The argument that the office belongs in Hastings because it has always been there is vary light because the secretary's office has not always been there. It was once located in Nashville and the business was as expeditiously conducted from this village as it ever was in Hastings.

DICKINSON By MEREDITH NICHOLSON 1 smiled as I drew out my watch,— m much at Batea* solemn tone and grim, lean visage as at his quotation from my grandsire. But the fellow puzzled and annoyed me. His unob­ trusive black clothes, his smoothlybrushed hair, his shaven face, awak­ ened an antagonism in me. '■Bates, rf you didn't fire that shot through the window, who did—will you answer me that?" "Yes. sir; if I didn't do it, it's quite a large question who did. I'll grant you that, sir." I stared at him. He met my gase without flinching; nor was there any­ thing insolent in his tone or attitude. He continued: "I didn’t' do ft, sir. I waa in the pantry when I heard the crash in-the refectory window. The bullet came from out of doors, as I should judge, sir.’' The facts and conclusions were un­ doubtedly with Bates, and I. felt that I had not acquitted myself creditably in my effort to fix the crime on him. My abuse of him had been tactless, to say the least, and I now tried another line of attack. "Of course, Bates, I was merely jok­ ing. What’s your own theory ot the matter?'' “I have no theory, sir. Mr. Glenarm always warned me against theories. He said—If you will pardon me—there was great danger in the speculative mind.’* The man spoke with a slight Irish accent, which in itself puzzled me. I have always been attentive to the peculiarities of speech, and his was not the brogue of the Irlfh servant class. Larry Donovan, who was Eng­ lish born, affected at times an exag­ gerated Irish dialect that was wholly different from the smooth liquid tones of Bates. But more things than his speech were to puzzle me in this man. "The person in the canoe? How do you account for her?” I asked. “I haven't accounted for her. sir. There's no women on these grounds? or any sort of person except our­ selves.*’ "But there are neighbors,—farmers. people of some kind must live along the lake." "A tew, sir; and then there's the school quite a bit beyond your own west wall.” His slight reference to my proprie­ torship, my own wall, as he put It, pleased me. "Oh. yes; there Is a school—girls?— yes: Mr. Pickering mentioned IL But the girls hardly paddle on the lake at night, at this season—hunting ducks— should you say. Bates?" "I don't believe they do any shoot­ ing. Mr. Glenarm. It's a pretty strict school. I judge, sir, from all accounts." “And the teachers—they, are all women ?" "They're .the Sisters of SL Agatha. I believe they call them. I sometimes see them walking abroad. They're very quiet neighbors, and they go away in the summer usually, except Sister Theresa. The school's her regular home. sir. And there's the little chapel just beyond the wall; th®, young minister lives there; and the garden­ er's the only other man on the grounds." "Show me my cell," I said, rising, "and I'll go to bed." He brought from somewhere a great brass candelabrum that held a* dozen lights, and ezplalned: "This was Mr. Glenarm's habit. He El ways used this one to go to bed with. I'm sure he'd wish you to have It. sir." He led the way. holding the clustar of lights high for my guidance up the broad stairway. The hall above ehared the generous lines of the whole house, but the wallr were white and bard to the eye. Rough planks had been laid down for a floor, and beyond the light of the candles lay a dark region that gave out ghostly echoes as the loose boards rattled un­ der orr feet.' "I hope you'll not be too much dis­ appointed. sir,” said Bates, pausing a moment before opening a door. "It's all qutte unfinished, but comfortable, I should say, quite comfortable." “Open the door!” He was not my host and I did not relish his apology. I walked past him into a small sitting-room that was, in a way, a miniature of the great library below. Open shelves filled with books lifted tho apartment to the ceiling on every hand, save where a small fire­ place and a cabinet broke the line of shelving. In the center of the room was a long table with writing mate, rials In nice order. I opened a hand­ some case and found that It contained a set of draftsman's Instruments. I groaned aloud. "Mr. Glenarm preferred this room for working. The Instruments were his very own, sir!" "The devil they were!" I exclaimed, irascibly I snatched a book from the nearest.shelf and threw It open on the table. It was "The Tower: Its Early Use for Purposes of Defense. London: 18111." I closed It with a slam. "The sleeping-room Is beyond, sir. I hope—" "Don’t you hope any more! ” I growled; "and It doesn’t make any dif­ ference whether I’m disappointed or not." "Certainly not. sir!" he replied In a tone that made me ashamed of my anger. The adjoining bedroom was small and meagerly furnished. The walls were untinted and were relieved only by prints of the English cathedral s> French chateaux, and like suggestions of the best things known to architec­ ture. The bed . was of the commonest •iron type; and the other articles of furniture were chosen with a strict re­ gard for utility. My trunks and bags had been carried in, and Bates asked from the door for my commands. "Mr. Glenarm always breakfasted at seven-thirty, sir, as near as he could bit it without a timepiece; and be was quite punctual." a "My grandfather's breakfast hour will suit me exactly. Bates." "If there's nothing further, sir—" "That’s all;—and Bateq—" * Yes. Mr. Glenarm.” “Of course you understand that I didn't really mean to imply that you had fired that shot at me?" "I beg you not to mention it. Mr. Glenarm." "But it was a little queer. If you -should gain any light on the subject, let me know.'.’ "Certainly, sir." ■ “And I believe. Bates, that we'd bet­ ter keep the blinds down at night. These duck hunters hereabouts are apparently reckless. You might at­ tend to them now,—and every evening hereafter." • » He gravely bade me good night and I followed him to the outer door and watched his departing figure, lighted by a single candle that he had pro­ duced from his pocket I stood for several minutes listening to his step, tracing it through .the hall bolow—as far as my knowledge of the houje would permit. Then, in un­ known regions, I could hear the clos­ ing of doors and drawing of bolts. Verily, my jailer waa a person of painstaking habits. 1 opened my traveling case and dis­ tributed its contents on the dressing table. I had carried through all my advedtures a folding leather photo­ graph holder, containing portraits of my father and mother and of John Marshall Glenarm, my grandfather, and this I set up on the mantel in the little sitting-room. It was with a new and curious Interest that I peered into my grandfather's shrewd old eyes. He used to come and go fitfully at my father’s house; but my father had dis­ pleased him in various ways that I need not recite, and my father’s death had left me -with, an estrangement which I had widened by my own acts. Now that I had reached Glenarm. my mind reverted to Pickering's estimate of the value of my grandfather's estate. Although John Marshall Glenarm was an eccentric man, he had been able to accumulate .a large fortune; and yet I had tamely permitted the executor to tell me that he had died comparatively poor. In so readily accepting the terms of the will and burying myself In a region of which I knew nothing, I had cut myself off from the usual chan­ nels of counsel. If 1 left the place toreturn to New York I should simply disinherit myself. At Glenarm I was, and there I must remain to the end of the year. I grew bitter against Picker­ Ing as I reflected upon the ease with which he had got nd of me. I had always satisfied myself that my wits were as keen as his. but I felt now that I had stupidly put myself in his power. CHAPTER V. A Red Tam-o’Shanter. I looked out’ on the bright October morning with a renewed sense of Isola­ tion. Trees crowded about my win­ dows, many of them still wearing their festal colors, scarlet and brown and gold, with the bright green of some stubborn companion standing out here and there with startling vividness. I put on an old corduroy outing suit and heavy shoes, ready for a tramp abroad and went below. The great library seemed larger than ever when 1 beheld It In the morning light. I opened one of the French windows and stepped out on a stone terrace, where I gained a fair view of tbs exterior of the house, which proved to be a modified Tudor, with battle­ ments and two towers. One of the lat­ ter was only half-finisned, and to it and to other parts of the house the workmen's scaffolding still clung. Heaps of stone and plies of lumber were scattered about »ft great disorder The house extended partly along the edge of a ravine, through which a slender creek ran toward the lake. The terrace became a broad balcony Immediately outside the library, and beneath It the water bubbled pleasant­ ly around heavy stone pillars. Two pretty rustic bridges spanned the ravine, one near the front entrance, the other at the rear.' My grandfather had projected bls house on a generous plan, but burled as it was among the trees, it suffered the lack ot perspec­ tive. However, on one side toward the lake was a fair meadow, broken by a water-tower, and just beyond the west dividing wall I saw a little chapel; and still farther. In the same direction, the outlines of the buildings of St. Agatha's were vaguely perceptible in another strip of woodland. The thought of gentle nuns and schoolgirls as neighbors amused me. All I asked was that they should keep to their own side of the wall. I beard behind me the careful step of Bates. "Good morning. Mr. Glenarm. I trust you rested quite well, sir." His figure was as austere, his tone as respectful and colorless rs by night The morning light gave him a pallid cast. 3ie suffered my examination coolly enough; his eyes were, indeed, the best thing about him. "You may breakfast when you like, slr,"-r-and-thus admonished I went Into the refectory. A newspaper lay at my plate; it wa« the morning's Issue of a Chicago dally. I was, then, not wholly out ot the world, I reflected, scanning the head­ lines Bates bad placed mo so that I faced the windows, an attention to my com­ fort and -safety that I appreciated. The broken pane told the tale of the shot' that had bo narrowly missed me the night before. * v 'TH repair that to-day, sir," Bates remarked, seeing my eyes upon the window. . "You know that I’m to spend a year, on this place; I assume that you are acquainted with the circumstances," I said, feeling it wise that we should understand each other. - "Quite so. Mr. Glenarm." 'Tun a student, yoq know, and all I want Is to. be let alone." This I threw in to reassure myself rather than for his Information. It was just as well, I reflected, to assert a little authority, even though the fel­ low undoubted!)- represented Picker­ ing and received orders from him. "In a day or two, or as soon as I have got used io the place, I shall set­ tle down to work in the. library. You may give me breakfast at seven-thirty; luncheon at one-thirty and dinner at seven.” "Those were my-late master’s hours, sir." . “Very well.- And I’ll eat anything you please, except mutton'broth, meat pie and canned strawberries. Straw­ berries In tins. Bates, are not well cal­ culated to lift the spirit of man.” "I quite agree with you, sir. If you will pardon my opinion.” "And the bills—" . "They are provided for by Mr. Pick­ ering. He sends me an allowance for the household expenses." “So you are to report to him, are you, as heretofore?" I blew out a match with .which I had lighted a cigar and watched the smok­ ing end intently. "I believe that’s tbe idea, sir." It Is not pleasant to be under com­ pulsion.—to feel your freedom cur­ tailed. to be conscious of espionage. I arose without a word and went into the hall. "You may like to have the keys," said Bates, following me. “There’s two for the gates in the outer wall and one for the St Agatha's gate; they’re marked, as you see. And here's the hall door key and the boat house key that you asked for last night,", After an hour spent in unpacking I went out Into the grounds. I thought It well to wire Pickering of my arrival, and I set out for Annandale to send him a telegram. _ (To be Continued.)

From the result of a oold settling in my kidneys, I was for a long time troubled with a heavy aching pain thru my loins.

Therefore, the education committee ot the house has a bill on its hands which Is due to be the subject of considerable dis­ cussion. Those who complained of the over-diligence of the prosecuting officers are principally German Luth­ erans who have children attending the German parochial schools and the 'ministers arid teachers connected with those schools. The object of the bill Introduced by .Representative New­ kirk, of Washtenaw, Is to .define more clearly and unmistakably what are the exemptions from attending the pub­ lic schools. One exemption of the bid law is .that a child need not attend a -public school when he attended a pa­ rochial school or other school where the course of study was practically the same. Tbe contention of the Washtenaw prosecutor was that the German Lutheran schools used the German language almost entirely in teaching, in this way not conforming to the curriculum of .the public schools. 7,1. 1___________ The _new bill exempts the German child under such circum­ stance from the public schools. The argument in the house is likely to de­ velop in trying to define just how far this thing will go In permitting children to be taught in almost any language. Another provision of the bill is that any child between thp age of 12 and 14 .years is excused from at­ tendance at school while in attendance at confirmation classes between No­ vember and Palm Sunday. Represen­ tative Greusel, chairman of the com­ mittee on-education of the house, says there will be a hearing on the bill in a few days, when a number of Wash­ tenaw persons will be heard from.

Once more the old question of the Michigan-Wisconsin boundary has ap­ peared. Representative Galbraith In­ troduced a concurrent resolution, which was passed by the house, “au­ thorizing the governor to appoint a resident of the state to present to the legislature ot the state of Wisconsin the matter of securing its coopera­ tion in the appointment of a commis­ sion to act jointly with a similar oom; mission from Michigan to determine the exact boundary between Wiscon­ sin and Michigan.” Representative Galbraith mentioned Peter White, of Marquette, as the man to receive the appointment to act without pay. No Liquor Legislation Likely. There will be no liquor legislation this session, according to the present outlook. As an economic propbeltftn tha need of adequate liquor legislation is admitted. Individually, legislators will agree that every city in tbe'state should have an excise commission empowered to regulate the number and location of saloons. A few cities enjoy that power now. through local act* whereby that power is conferred upon the common councils. It is so In Lansing, where the limi t is one sa­ loon to a thousand population and excellent results have been obtained. Some members of the legislature ar­ gue that the fear or laxity of the judi­ ciary ot the state is responsible for present conditions, that if they would enforce the laws by proper punish­ ment instead of catering to the sa­ loon element by letting them off with small fines, there would be far less trouble ■ and no other remedy would be needed. Those who look at the matter in on unbiased way are con­ vinced that each city should have an excise commission, but sueb legisla­ tion is not in sight The advisability of increasing the liquor license to 11,000 a year has been talked of, but it is not likely to get beyond that stage.

The following from the February number of the Educator Journa'l published at Indianapolis,.!* a deserv­ ed endorsement of a quiet man who does his work quietly but well: “Perhaps never in the history of the Winamac schools has there been such a spirit of progress as at the present time.

On several occasions it has been remark­ ed ’by- prominent state educators that the Winamac schools are second to none in Northwestern Indiana. That Uie schools are in such an excellent condition is due largely to tbe untir­ ing efforts of Prof. Herrington, who has entered upon his third year as superintendent.

Save Something The young man or woman who.doe* not save something each week, out of the salary when it is the meager dollar a day is not going to do so when it is greater. The habit of saving should begin with the very first wages earned and continue so long as that old gray wolf, Pover­ ty, is in the least liable to be prowling about the premises. If one has to pay board and the-wages are small, naturally it is no laughing mat­ ter to “pinch the eagle ?til he screams,” for such a course entails the most rigid economy. Eventhen some part of the wages should be saved and that trifle put behind this' bank's stout doors against the “mistv. moiety day” of the future: A person might find it utterly im­ possible to take 818.25 all at once and go to the bank with if, yet he would be able to do that very thing and not feel it in the least, if he would but drop a nickel a day in a box and leave it there. When a voung boy earns his first money, if he hasn’t already learned to be careful with the allowance from his father, he is more than apt to want to buy the thousand and one little things that will appeal to him, yet they are the things that in nine cases out of ten he can get along with­ out, and invariably better than he can get along with them. After the first Yielding to the pleasure of possession comes a great deal harder the denial of the desire to buy. And it’s a foregone conclusion, an axiom laid down at.the foundation of the world, that if the girl start­ ing out to make her own living has been a little spendthrift with the money she has earned, she will never be the helpful wife she could lie if she had had the habit of economy instilled in her as forcibly as she had acquired the appetite for chocolates. The prudent wage-earnei*of either sexjiuts away in the bank each week every penny that is not absolutely required to live on, doing without every bit of useless finerv. And these are the young people who are in after years des­ tined to be the power of the country—they will ••get along.” The world" will have use for them in enterprises of great pith and moment, which will not their “currents turn away and lose the name of action.” Let this bank take care of your savings.

Keyes a New Trustee. The village. election Monday was the liveliest affair of pie kind that ever happened .in Nashville, and will go down in history as the “scrap­ piest” ever held in the village. ■ The vote'was the largest ever cast in the village, 358 ballots being cast. This exceeds the vote .of two years ago which was 335. Last year the number of votes cast was 279. ■ The biggest surprise of the election was the strength of the independent ticket, as that ticket had 116 straight votes to 89 for the republicans. A great strife had sprung up between the supporters of Messrs. Furniss and Marshall and tatween Lake and Brooks, and the latter’s great run is responsible for so many of the repub­ lican party splitting their ticket. Brooks ran like a jack-rabbit on an Iowa prairie and pulled out 244 votes to his opponent, John Lake’s 111, thus giving him a majority of 133, some­ thing that his most optimistic sup­ porters would not have suspected, and a result that almost staggered “ Bill” himself. ■ John Marshall aljio devel­ oped race-horse propensities and the copnt.showed him to have 205 to his opponent, Von Furniss’ 149, thus he had a majority of 56. Ed. V. Keyes, on the independent ticket for trustee, pulled out one of the winners in his department and Wm. J. Liebhauser was dropped. Earl B. Townsend, republican candidate for assessor, had his running clothes on also, as he polled 205 votes to S. S. Ingerson’s 143. F. M. Weber for clerk on the republican ticket beat out his oppon­ ent, Chas. Clift, by 8 votes, having 178 to the latter’s 170. Dr. F. F. Shilling, Henry C. Zuschnitt and A. G. Murray were the successful repub­ lican trustees elected. We honestly believe the result was a surprise to everyone who has watched the contest, which in some re­ spects bordered very closely to bitter­ ness. yet we hope the harsh things said on both sides will be forgotten, as we feel tlfey will be, and everyone turn in to help the new council boom the village. ‘ The council the coming year will be composed of the following members: F. K. Bullis. H. D. Wotring, Henry C. Zuschnitt, Dr. F. F. Shilling, E. V. Keyes and A. G. Murray; J. B. Mar­ shall president and F. M. Weber clerk.

And now that it’s all over, who cares a whoop? And in the mix-up, the south side gets two trustees. The council, will meet to-night to confirm the election. Query--Who will be marshal and street commissioner? Did you notice that the sun re­ fused to shine the next morning? Next comes the township struggle. Trot out your sprinters for the first heat. And that night it rained. Probably Pluvius thought the atmosphere need­ ed clarifying. Now that the selections have been made, let’s all turn in and see what we can do for Nashville the coming year. But with all the hard feeling and “hot air shooting,” there was no bloodshed, and by nine o’clock election night the streets were desert­ ed. At Lake Odessa the entire peoples’ ticket was elected. Jerry Handsberger was elected president;-George Mc­ Millen clerk and Thomas Johnson treasurer. Anvone to look at “Bill” Brooks would not think that he could go so fast, but he must have found his second wind for he ran “like biases” for a man crippled up with the rheu­ matism. First Tenor (Billy Smith) “Whoop­ ee!” First Bass (Ward Gribbin) “Whoopee!” Second Tenor (John Greene) “Whoopee!” Second Bass (Clare Furniss) “Whoopee!” Quar­ tette “Whoopee! Whoopee! Whoopee! Whoopee!” Vermontville had but one ticket in the field and the following officers were elected: President, D. M. Pur- dates and several were mixed up on trustees so that no trustee was, voted for on either ticket. The marking of the ballots shows that there are still some who do not understand marking their ballots. The dav was an ideal one and if the old saw that a fair day insures repub­ lican success had proven true then the resnlt would have been different, but the usual order of things were re­ versed and the opposition went in with r whoop. Where the republi­ cans have a natural majority of from 75 to 100, this majority was turned -to the other side, and it is jthus evident that many republicans voted the straight independent ticket. „ DEATH OF* MRS. W. A. EXNER - Mrs. Eva Exner, wife of Rev. Wm. Exner, pastor of the Potterville M. E. church, died at her home in that vil­ lage last Friday, after an extended illness, and after a surgical operation. The remains were brought here Tues­ day night on’the 9.12 train and the funeral was held from the Evangelical church yesterday forenoon, and the remains were laid to rest in Lakeview cemetery: Rev. H. 1. Voelker, assisted by Rev. Alfred Way, conducted the services. * Eva Lenora Brumm, daughter of Mr. and- Mr*. George Brumm, was born near Nashville, Mich., March 7, 1877. Sept. 24. 1895, she was united in marriage to Rev. Wm. Exner, and went with him to LeRoy charge, where their work lasted four years. From there they went to Palo, where two years were spent in serving the peo­ ple. The next work was in Shepards­ ville,, and four years were spent there. Potterville charge was the next place, where, after about 18 months, she was called home. Six children were born to them, five girls and one boy. The little boy was the last born, but the first to be called to the heavenly home, and now the mother has gone to join her precious baby. She was a graduate of the Nashville high school. After graduating at the age of 16, she taught school for two years, then began her life as pastor’s wife. She was a kind, loving, faithful and loyal wife. She was indeed a helpmeet to her husband. As a mother she was devoted to her little ones: she taught them about her Savior as soon as they could understand, and the lov­ ing words she spoke and beautiful hymns she sung to her little ones will never Im* forgotten. The impress of a true Christian mother has fxjen truly made. She joined the Evangelical church when about twelve years of age, and was among the most loyal and faithful in the church. The place she loved most was.where duty called her. Whether at home'caring for her little ones or in the active work of the public services, she gave whole-heart­ ed service. She loaves, besides the husband and five little girls, a mother, one sister and four'brothers. She was the youngest of ten children, three brothers and one sister havingpreceded her to the other world. Funeral services were held at Potterville M. E. church, conducted by Presiding Elder Lewis DeLamarter, assisted by Revs. Wilson, French, Cottrell, North and Albert. Those from out of town who were here to attend the funeral were John Exner and wife of Lansing. Mrs. Dav­ id Miller of KJason, Thomas Purkey of Lansing, Mrs. August Baltz of Bat­ tle .Creek, RoV Brumm of Applegate and Dr. Ray Furkey of Detroit. ' A SERIOUS OFFENSE. Constable. A. N. Appelman went to Sunfield last Friday ana returned with Thomas L. Chamblin, who was arrested on a warrant sworn to by Mrs. Ada Greundine, charging him with assault with the attempt to com­ mit rape. Mr. Chamblin was arraign­ ed before Justice Kidder and gave bonds for his appearance before that officer for examination on Tuesday, March 26. Mr. Chamblin is a well-todo resident of Sunfield, owning a large farm and being comfortably well fixed. He is known through this section as a log buyer and has always had a good name. Mrs. Greundine lives with her husband on the county line northcast of Nashville. Mrs. Greundine’s storv of the affair is to the effect that Chamblin came to her house while her husband was away and made Indecent proposals to her, and that when she commanded him to leave the house he grablied her; she says that she jerked loose from him and that he then left the house. Chamblin’s story of the affair to the officers is in substance about the same as Mrs. Greundine’s with the excep­ tion of trying to use force. He admits making an indecent proposal to her but denies that he attempted to take hold of her. Mrs. Greundine is very young, not over 16 years of age. H. E. Downing and Ward Gribbin went Chamblin’s bail. It is rumored that the case may be settled out of court. ST. PATRICK'S DAY BANQUET. TOOK QUANTITY OF PARIS 6REEN Despondent Over III Health. Leaves Three Small Children. A Sad Affair. Mrs. Fred Bass; Hying a little pver three miles north of the village, ended her earthly career Monday morning by taking a large dose of Paris green. She had been in ill hehlth for some time but the act was not anticipated, by her family, as she had shown no signs of mental trouble. Sunday night Mr. Bass slept up stairs with one of the children, who. during the night was taken ill, necessitating Mr. Bass’ being up considerable during the night. He was awakened along about four p’cloek in the morning by the child and decided that he would get up and dress. He went down stairs and told his wife that the child was ill, whereupon she told him to bring it down to her and she would take care of it while he went out to do his chores. He brought the child down and went to the barn. He was at the barn about an hour and when he re­ turned to the house he heard some onegroaning. He went into the 'bedroom where his wife slept but she was not there and hearing the groans again he thought they came from the cellar and he went there but she was not there. Then he went out doors and found her lying near the corner of the house. He asked her what the matter was but she could not answer him and he picked he’- up and carried her in­ to the house, never suspecting that she had attempted to take her own life. He at once dispatched one of the children to a neighbor’s house to telephone to town for a physician, in the meantime doing all he could to re­ lieve her suffering. After a little while she began vomiting and he at once suspected the nature of her ill­ ness ana hurried the child back to telephone the physician of the nature of the illness so that he would come prepared. Dr. F. F. Shilling was called and he at once began adminis­ tering restoratives to relieve her stomach of the poison, but the poison had done its work and she was beyond earthly help when he arrived; the poison had gone thru her system. All that could possibly be done to save her was done but she died at about half past ten o’clock. There is no doubt but what she took the poison with suicidal intent as when the doctor tried to use the stomach tube she fought against it and it took the strength of three men to hold her. She was rendered speechless and could not talk, so just why she ended her life is not exactly-known, as.she hard­ ly ever complained, although she was In poor health, ana the family rela­ tions are said to have been the best. The Paris green was purchased last year and was kept on a rafter in the wood shed. There had been but a very little used from the package and as near as Mr. Bass can estimate she look at least two teaspoonfulls. She evidently arose from bed as soon as Mr. Bass left the house and went to the wood shed and got the poison, then went back into the house and took it, than ran out ddbrs lobe away from the children. The cup with a spoon and the Paris green sediment was found near where Mr. Bass found her lying, showing that she had carried it out with her. Mrs. Buss was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Franck of this vil­ lage. ’Die husband and her parents are grief stricken over the sad affair. She was a bright woman and no one who knew her would suspect that she w6uld ever be one to commit self­ destruction. The funeral was held this forenoou at 9 o’clock at the house and 10 o’clock at the North Castleton U. B. church, and the remains were interred in Lakeview fcemetery, Rev. Hull of Woodbury officiating. WOMAN'S LITERARY CLUB. The Woman’s Literary club held one of the most enjoyable meetings of the season at the home of Mrs. Henry­ Roe Tuesday afternoon, the most pleasant feature of the occasion be­ ing the presence of Mrs. Clement Smith of Hastings, president of the state federation of women’s clubs. Mrs. Roe, who is a very pleasant en­ tertainer, gave a fine one o'clock din­ ner at which Mrs. Smith and the of­ ficers of the club were present. Fol­ lowing this the Remaining members of the club arrived and after a pretty song rendered by Miss Eva Burgess, the meetmg was opened bv each lady giving a biographical sketch of. an ekrly English author, also quota­ tions from Scott. Mrs. Smith then gave an excellent address in regard to club work, telling why women be­ long to the club ana what club women were doing Michigan today. Bv her talk the ladies were inspired with an enthusiasm to build up their club to something beside being simply ben­ eficial to themselves, but also to others in the way of civic improve­ ments, etc. After Mrs. Sihith's talk, a solo was given by Mrs. O. G. Mun­ roe, which was much appreciated. At the close of the meeting a dainty twocourse luncheon was served by the hostess and upon leaving each lady was presented with the class flower, the carnation. All join in declaring that the afternoon was well spent and hope for many more of like nature. Hon. C. L.

The purpose la to pre­ * vent the auditors' from spending any of the funds entrusted lb them except in the manner specified by' the super­ visors. The firm amendment compels the auditors to keep a separate ac­ count with each department or fund for which appropriations may be made and requires that such accounts shall ' be/debited in detail with every Item chargeable against such department or fund. Another amendment ' re­ quires the auditors to submit itemized estimates for the ensuing year, and it is made unlawful for the auditors to expend any moneys except in strict accordance with the terms of the ap­ propriations. House Passes Two Bills. - After the mining fight the bouse went, into committee of the whole. long enough to consider two bills. Dil­ atory tactics were looked for in con­ nection with the change of venue measure, but it was agreed to with­ out an objection being raised, and passed. The bill reenacts the old law giving circuit judges discretion in "the matter of granting changes of venue, but does not apply to present cases. The members did not take kindly to Representative Dewey's compulsory county road system, and killed it by striking out all after the enacting clause. The house also considered and passed the 'senate bill giving the Mackinaw Island park commission ab­ solute control of all park property. Heretofore a great deal of friction has existed between the park commis­ sion and the municipal authorities as to which was supreme, and the bill clears up the situation. For Protection of Life. Senator Cady introduced a bill to •compel railroads to increase the nu­ merical strength of train crews. It provides that freight trains of 50 cars must have six-men crews, including two brakemen and a flagman; under 50. five-men crews. Passenger train], of five or more cars must have sixmen crews, including one brakeman and one flagman, who are prohibited from acting as porters or baggage­ masters. A fine of $500 for each vio­ lation is provided and the railroad company is also made liable for dam­ ages in case an accident occurs when the train has less than a full quota. * Must Demand Roll Call‘ By a vole of » to 3 the house com­ mittee on revision of the constitution, of which Representative Sam Kelley is chairman, decided to Indefinitely postpone further consideration* of the Initiative "and referendum proposition In the interests of which several state organisations have been working. There la now nothing left for those who favdr the Initiative and referen­ dum ►it <o secure a record vote in the bous* and find out where they stand. TBis can be done by moving to discharge the committee and- de­ manding a roll call. Representative Agens* joint resolu­ tion proposing an amendment to the constitution to give members of the legislature $800 a year was also pigeonholed, the sentiment of the committee being that this matter should be left to the constitutional convention. To Guard State Forests. To place the forests of the state under the control and authority of the state game warden is tho ‘purpose of a bill that has been turned ovnr to Representative L. L. Kelley for intro­ duction. The bill in question not only gives the warden control of the game and fish, but also makes him fire and police warden, so that the forests will have one responsible head. The meas­ ure carries an appropriation of $140.­ 000, whioh would be in lieu of all other appropriations for the purposes named, of which $40,000 Is to be used for the payment of salaries and ex­ penses of deputies, who are limited to 20. The bill gives the' head of the de­ partment the title of forest, fire and game warden. Hillsdale Heard From. The proposition to divide the first Judicial circuit and form separate dis­ tricts of Lenawee and Hillsdale coun­ ties does not find favor with Hillsdale people. The grangers are especially strongly opposed to the measure. The Pomona grange, a county organization, has strongly condemned the movement and all subordinate granges have done likewise. ■ The question entered into the cam­ paign for nominations to the legisla­ ture last fall and was a strong factor in securing- the nomination of Repre­ sentative Alvord, as he was outspoken in opposition to the scheme. It will be a very unpopular move and Hills­ dale people have no desire to see it go through. An important amendment, to the law relating to fire escapes drafted by the labor department was Introduced in the house. The present law com­ pelling the use of fire escapes only ap­ plies to stores/ and manufacturing places and the amendment adds schools, halls, apartment houses, theaters and public buildings. Au­ thority Is vested in the labor commlsaloner determine the necessity for such escapes. ' To Aid Reforestratlon. With a view to paving the way to reforestratlon of state lands, Senator Carton has a bill which sets-a mini­ mum price of five dollars on bare state tax lands and prevents any one person from purchasing more than 160 acres. It also provides that delinquent state tax lands shall be advertised for five years, but no longer, and shall then revert to the state. There are now some 16,000,000 acres of state lands. Supreme Court Changes Hours. Commencing with the AprlKerm the supreme court will sit four instead of five hours each day and will hold court on Monday, making five court days. The hours for holding court will be from 10 a. m. to 12 and from 1:30 to 3:30 p. m. The court will sit as many hours as heretofore, but will have more time to discuss cases to­ gether after court adjourns. Didn't Know Rules of Road? Justice Hooker, of the supreme court.. an automobile enthusiast, has tianded Representative Dickinson tor Introduction in the legislature a bill changing the word "left" to “right" in that section of the automobile law that requires a person driving a horse or learn to turn to the left on the ap­ oroach of an auto from behind. The law is contrary to custom and leads to iccidents. - Will Kill Grand Rapids Bill. Grand Rapids would seem to be a reform city, judging by the two bills sent from that city. One confers the right to hold non-partisan elections and the other-confers upon the elec­ tors the ‘'initiative, referendum and recall." Senator Fyfe gets credit foi them, but it is understood that they will be put to sleep In the house com­ mittee. Manual Training Supervisor. Representative J. S. Monroe, of Ironwood, has found another state Job which he has incorporated in a bill authorizing the superintendent of pub­ lic instruction to appoint a supervisor of county manual training classes and of day schools for the deaf. He Axes the salary* at $1,000 a year. Civil Service Bill. Senator Bland introduced in the senate a general civil service bill, pro­ . Tiding for the appointment by the gov­ ernor of a commission of three mem­ bers to regulate the appointment oi employes in state departments and commissions. Appointed County Agent. Gov. Warner has appointed William E. Myers, of Lapeer, county agent After State Fair Association. Representative Alvord is after the State Fair association to the extent that he will insist on having a more tangible organization provided. To bring the matter to a focus he intro­ duced a resolution in the house re­ questing the officers to formulate and present to the legislature a plan of or­ ganization that will provide a perma­ nent basis and include a board of di­ rectors made up of a fanner from every congressional district in the slate- February Not Favorable to Wheat.

Parmelee, a former superintendent of the Nash­ ville schools, who has been at Ocean Grove, California, for some time, is soon to go to the Philippine Islands to engage in school work for the government. The entertainment course number given at the opera house last night by the “Old Plantation Quartette” was a decided hit. The quartette is com­ posed of colored gentlemen of rare musical ability and the work of the quartette was excellent. The ladies were favored with a-large house. S. R. Hays, who has been ill at the home of his daughter, Mrs. F. J. Felghner, for the past several months, left today for his home at Woodville, Ohio. He was accompanied as far as Toledo by Mrs. Feighner. He has nearly recovered. Atonetimeit was thought that he had no chances for recovery. George Kepner, having sold his farm one mile east and khree-fourths south of Woodland village, will sell at auction on Thursday March 29, Iwgining at one o’clock a. m. good live stock, farm tools and household goods. Everything offered at this sale is strictly all right and his terms are very reasonable, nine months time without interest. ,O. M. McLaughlin is laid up with a badly sprained ankle, received by a fall from a ladder at his hardware store yesterday morning. The ladder broke and Mack jumped, landing on his feet, but with such force as to bad­ ly bruise the ligaments of his left foot. Dr. F. F. Shilling tied a knot or two in the leg and Mack will soon be out again. Gen. W. H. Loomis of Grand Rap­ ids will meet with Ivy lodge, K. of P., next Tuesday night to talk with the local Py thians in regard to the estab­ lishment of a company of the uniform rank here. It is hoped there will be a full attendance of the members to greet General Loomis, who is one of tiie most popular and most enthusiast­ ic Pythian* in the state. Chas. Scheldt has decided to make Saturday. May 25, “Alpenprinz day” in Nashville.' On that day ho wants every owner of an Alpenprinz colt to show him in Nashville, and there will be a regular “colt fair” here. He will offer three cash prizes of S7, to and *3 for the best two-year-olds shown on that day, and the same prizes for the three best yearlings. Alpenprinz has gome splendid colts in the vicinity of Nashville, and the prizes offered are certainly liberal enough to induce the owners of them to bring them out for competition. The fire department was called to the south side Monday evening in response to an alarm. The fire prov­ ed to be the chimney on Mrs. Biggs’ house, burning out. No damage re­ sulted but-the people of that neighbor­ hood had a good scare. Dalhauaer on the flying machine: “We don’t want no flying machines, dose attymobiles ish bad enough al-* reatty, but when you is hit by one dar you is; and when you is hit by a, fly­ ing machine, you ain’t thru Jet, for you have got a long hard drop coming •yet alretty.” The spring-like weather the past week has started some to commence cleaning up their yards. This is something toat should receive prompt attention every year, as nothing de­ tracts as much .from the beauty of a town as the sight Of litter in yards. Nashville has the name of being a clean village and let us all help to maintain that reputation. One thing the now council can do that will gain the everlasting thanks of the people of the village the com­ ing year is to put Main street in bet­ ter condition. Something substantial in the way of treating it should be done, for it is in bad condition every time there is a rain. If there is any­ thing aliout a village that should look good it is the Main street. We are getting lots of good side walks and cross walks and the usual condition of the Mato street does not harmonize with them. John Ward was arrested Saturday on complaint of his brother. Morris Ward, with whom he had been having some trouble. He had told Morris that he “would make sausage of bias’• and Morris didn’t want him to 4o it so entered complaint against hinr-fc^ making threats and wanted him put under bonds to be good. The matter was aired in Justice Kidder’s court, and John was put under 8200 bonds to keep his sausage machine in restraint for six months. Dennis Ward and W. J. Noyes went surety on the bond. According to a new order of the postoffice department, box rent notices must be placed in rent boxes ten days l>efore the end of the new quarter. The rates of lock boxes at the Nash­ ville office have been reduced to 35 cents for the small boxes and 45 cents for the lock draws. This rate is now established permanently. The call boxes will remain at the-old price of 20 cents per quarter. Keys for lock boxes must be paid for at the rate of 20 cents each at the time the box is rent­ ed, the amount paid for keys to be re­ turned when the box is given up and the keys returned. A Nashville man who is married to a woman who is a great “jaw’’ got off something the other day that is worth telling about even if it does make some one mad. The fellow is slightly addicted to the use of “red­ eye’’ and his spouse to cure him thought to frighten his appetite away, so she laid for him-one night and played ghost. He was coming home in a tipsy condition and just as he was alongside a “spooky” place he was confronted by an aparition. He didn’t seem to be a bit frightened and asked, “Who are you?” The aparition re­ plied that she was old Nick, whereup­ on the tippler said, “Come on, pard, let’s shake, I'm married to youb sis­ ter.” . ■ • All people who mail souvenir cards to their friends will be interested in order No. 98, which was promulgated by the postoffice department February 26th, and whichsjs as follows: “Post cards ornamented with particles of glass, mica or other similar substan­ ces, liable to injure the persons of those handling the malls, are hereby excluded from the mails except when enclosed in suitable envelopes.’’ The reason for the issuing of this order was the death from lockjaw of a post­ al clerk who cut his hand on the edge of one of these ornamented cards. Another thing which is not generally known is that a leather or wood post­ al card, or any card not made of card­ board or paper, is merchandise, under the interpretation of the postal laws, and if they contain writing must pay two cents postage instead of one. 'J?he dip net fishermen at the dam have been catching quite,a number of nice suckers and pickerel the past week. Quite a number of the fish they have dipped up show very plaip signs of having been entangled very recent­ ly in dip nets, thus proving that this kind of business goes merrily on despite the fact that there are laws on the statute books prohibiting it. The trouble is there is no officer who seems to care to meddle with the fish law, as there is usually so little in it in the way of pay for their services, for them to meddle, with it, and then it seems to be too hard to secure con­ victions, as the law is in such form that there are many loop boles for the violators to crawl out. Ibus these law breakers are allowed to go on with their work depleting the streams and lakes of their fish while honest fishermen are compelled to look on and bear it. At the spring election the voters will be asked to settle the question of whether the convicts in the state penal institutions shall be taught mechani­ cal trades. The whole question comes out of the proposed Idea of establishing a twine plant at the Jackson prison. The binder twine trust is fighting the project and with the trust’s usual greed will drive the supporters of the Idea to the last ditch before they will see a large share of their profits dwindle away by the establishment of such a plant. Such a course, we believe, is as good a way to fight the trusts as there is. and why stop at binder twine? If there are prisoners enough yhy not turn them loose on other trust pro­ tected (articles? Then, besides the benefit the people would derive, it would certainly be a good thing for the prisoners,- as it would let them learn a trade, which is mure than some of them have when they go there. NUMBER 80 M. C. Whitney will have an auction sale at his place one mile east and two and one-half miles south of Nash­ ville, on the county line, Wednesday, March 27. His advertisement in another column shows a large list of stock, feed and farming tools to be sold. The sale will comments at ten o’clock in the forenoon and a good lunch furnished at noon. The township political pot is be­ ginning to boll In earnest. From present indications there will be fourtickets in the field, unless the pro­ hibition and democrat parties decide to amalgamate as they did in the village election. There are up-to-date calls for four caucuses already in, the republican, prohibition, democratic and “independent.” It is a question whether the democrats and prohibi­ tionists will stand for another “mij^ure?’ yet it is rumored that both these caucuses will adjourn and all join forces to defeat the republican ticket. At any rate there promises to be fu|, but let us hope that it "does not reach the stage of bitterness that obtained in the village electioh. You’ve read, about the fellow who was stealing water melons and was chased out of the field by the owner and jumped over the fence Into a snow drift, haventt you? You’ve.all heard of the fellow who sees the first robin, but when the fellow comes along with the first snake story of the season then there is reasonable excuse to take it in with a few grains of doubt. Different brands of “cobn juice’* make different kind of snakes and fixes one so that he can see them in all seasons of the year; however while we are not accusing Elmer Franck of seeing the latter kind of snakes, yet he comes forth with the first snake tale of the season. He says that he killed a big streaked snalke in the woods last week, and avers that it was very much alive. Phil Garlinger repeated Lew Clark’s experiment with the turpentine rag and match combination last Thurs­ day, and it worked just'the same as "it did with Lew. Phil had been in a little altercation with one of his swine, and in smiting the animal on the proboscis with his fist tore a holo in his hand, either on the ring in the hog’s nose or on one of his tusches. He went in the house and wrapped up the injured member and saturated the rag with turpentine; then he sat down to enjoy a quiet smoke and get over being mad at the hog. When he lit the match the pyrotechnics commenced and Phil was the star performer for a time, until he happened to think of the reservoir full of water at the kitchen range, when he plunged his arm in way to the shoulder and ex­ tinguished the conflagration. That combination will always work. Who will be the next to turn us in a tur­ pentine story? • Now that the maple sugar season is at its height it might not come .amiss to some of the makers to understand the law regarding the sale of maple sugar and syrup. In years past it has been the custom of many makers to put certain quantities of cane and other cheaper sugars in with their ma­ ple product, thus giving them a better profit on their sujptr. .Some makers and many users prefer the mixed article if the proper amount of white sugar is mixed with the maple, but the new law leaves the consumer the Srivilege of mixing his own sugar if e wante it mixed. If a maker wants to mix white or other kinQ of sugar with his maple he must so label it that it will show just how much foreign matter the maple contains, and if he should sell his sugar for pure maple and it was found to contain other sugar he could Ire heavily fined. All buyers now make the seller sign a certificate as to the purity of his ma­ ple and thus protect themselves against some of those makers who have mixed their sugar so lopg that they won’t be able to break away from the practice. Sam Fishel, who was here recently with a stock of clothing which he en­ deavored to close out, is in trouble over at Marshall. He took one of his clothing stocks Into that town and ad­ vertised his sale, but no sooner had he opened up than he was served with a warrant charging him with running an itinerant store without paying the necessary license. The state law gives to cities and villages the right to construct ordinances to protect the regular merchants from the fly-by­ night dealers and it seems that Mar­ shall had armed itself with the nec­ essary ordinance. O. M. McLaughlin was subpoenaed as a witness and was over there Friday. Mr. Fishel, when he came to Nashville, stated to The News and to others that be had come to stay, but after he had. been here a week or so. the name of the concern was changed to the New York Salvage -Co.; however Fishel paid the bills and looked after the business as he did be­ fore the “sale” to the salvage com­ pany was reported. The store did not remain here ;ery long, howevter, and the clothing merchants reported at the time that their business was not en­ dangered in the least by their advent into the business here. We believe Nashville has such an ordinance and in these cases it should be used, for it is not right that outsiders should be allowed to come in and reap the cream of the trade and then fly out just at tax time. The stocks these fellows carry is never the best as it is usually the “clean-up” of somelarga store ’ and shop-worn goods that are not really worth half what they ask for them even though their prices are alluring. The sum and.substanoe of any line of business is that when you want anyt^ng good you have got io pay Jar ft arid when something is offered you at a very low price, lower than common, whether it is offered by local house, mail-order house or any­ body, you can make up your mind that there is an object in the low price; and if you think some one in Chicago <r Kalamazoo is coming over here with goods for your irenefit then you've got another guess coming. �Bxperimenu that trifle with and endanger the health or What Is CASTORIA CMtoria is a harmless Eubetitute for Cartor Ofl, Pare­ goric, Drops and Soothing1 Syrups.

Oi®, HOUSE THOUSAND CANDLES By MEREDITH NICHOLSON CHAPTER VI. The Girl and tha Canoe. Bates did not refer to his encounter with the caretaker, and I resolved to keep my knowledge of It to myself. I always prefer to let a rascal bahg him­ self, and here, was a case, I reasoned, where, if Bates was disloyal to the duties Pickering had Imposed upon him, the fact of his perfidy was bound to disclose itself eventually. Glancing around at him when he was off guard I surprised a look of utter dejection upon his face as he stood with folded arms behind my chair. He flushed and started, then put his hand to his forehead, where a strip of •taster covered his wound. *1 met with a alight accident this morning, Mr. Glenarm. The hickory’s very tough, sir. A piece of wood flew up and struck me.” » bad!” I said with sympathy, d better rest a bit this after"Thank you, sir; but it's only a small matter,—only, you might tnlnk the cut a trifle disfiguring.” He struck- a match for my cigarette, and I left without looking at him again. But crossed me the threshold again, out as iI crosseu mreanoia of the library I formulated this note: ■ "Bates is a liar, tor one thing, and a person with active enemies 'for an- 1 other; watch him.” | All things considered the day was , passing well enough. I picked up a j ttnnlr n Anmfnrtnhln book, thraw threw mv.nlf myself m, on a comfortable !j divan to ".moke and reflect before con­ tinuing my explorations. As I lay there, Bates brought me a telegram, a reply to my message to Pickering. It "Yours announcing arrival received and filed.” It was certainly a queer business, my errand to Glenarm. I lay for a couple of hours dreaming, and counted the candles in the great crystal chan­ delier until my eyes ached. Then 1 took my cap and was soon tramping toward the lake. There were several small boats and a naphtha launch in the boat-house. I dropped a canoe into the water and paddled off toward the summer colony, whose gables and red roofs were plain­ ly visible from the boat-house. I landed and roamefl idly over leafatrewn walks past nearly a hundred cottages, to whose windows and verandas the winter blinds gave a dreary and Inhospitable air. There was, at one point, a casino, whoso broad veranda hung over the edge of ttelake. while beneath, on the water­ side, was a boat-house. I walked back to the wharf, where I had left my canoe, and was about to ■top into it when I saw, rocking st a similar landing place near-by, another alight craft of the same typd as my own, but painted dark maroon. I was sure the canoe had not been there. when I Un4«d. Powlblr It belonrod to Morgan, the caretaker! I walked' over end examined IL I even lifted it । ■lightly to teat its weight The pad­ die lay on the dock beside me and IL too, I weighed critically, deciding that It was a trifle light for my own taste. ■• with every emphasis of youth. A pair of dark blue eyes examined me with good-humored curiosity. She was on good terms with the sun—1 rejoiced in the brown of her cheeks, so eloquent of companionship with the outdoor world—a certificate indeed of the fa­ vor of Heaven. Show me, in October, a girl with a face of tan. whose hands have piled a paddle or driven a golf­ ball or cast a fly beneath the blue arches of summer, and I will suffer her scorn In joy. She may vote me dull and refute my wisest word with laughter, for hers are the privileges of the sisterhood of Diana; and that soft bronze, those daring fugitive freckles beneath her eyes, link her to times when Pan whistled upon his reed and all the days were long. Her rubber-soled outing shoes had made possible her silent approach, and she enjoyed. I was sure, my discom­ fiture at being taken unawares. I had snatched off my cap and stood waiting beside the canoe, feeling, I must admit, a trifle guilty at being caught In the unwarrantable inspection of another person's property—particu­ larly a person so wholly pleasing to the eye. . **j oeiieve mat is my paa"I believe—1I believe that Is padshe said, a little timidly I thoughL and yet with definiteness. i looked down and found to my an­ noyance that I held her paddle In my hand.—was in fact leaning upon it Wjth a cool air of proprietorship. "Again, I beg yOUr pardOD.” I SUld. "I hadn’t expected—” ' She eyed me calmly, with the stare of the child that arrives at a drawing­ room door by mistake and scrutinizes the guests without awe. I didn’t know what 1 had expected or bad not expect­ ed, and she manifested no Intention of helping me to explain. Her short skirt suggested 15 or 16—not more—and such being the case there was no rea­ son why I should not be master of the situation. As I fumbled my pipe the twitching vainly st the rope, which was tied securely, in unfamiliar loops. She was singularly unresponsive. The thought that she was probably laughing at my clumajnews did not make my fingers more nimble. "The nautical instructor Agatha’s is undoubtedly a Thlt knot must come in the post-grad­ uate course. But my gallantry is equal, I trust, to your patience." The maid In the red tam-o'-shanter continued silent. The wet rope was obdurate, the knot more and more hopeless, and my efforts to make light of the situation awakened no response in the girl. I tugged away at the fope. attacking its tangle on various the"A case for surgery, I'm afraid. A truly gordian knot, but I haven't my knife." "Oh, but you wouldn't!" she ex­ claimed. "I think I can rnknagc.” She bent down—I was aware* that the sleeve of her jacket brushed my shoulder—seised an end that I had ignored, gave it a sharp tug with a slim, brown hand and pulled the knot free. , "There!” she exclaimed with a little laugh; ”1 might have saved you all the bother.” "How dull of me! But.I didn't have the combination.”! said, steadying the canoe carefully to mitigate the ignom­ iny of my failure. . She scorned the hand I extended, but embarked with light, confident step and took the paddle. It was grow­ ing late. The shadows in the wood were deepening; a chill crept over the water, and, beyond the tower of the ‘ chapel, the sky was bright with the glory of sunset With a few skillful strokes she brought her little craft beside my pipe, which she deftly caught on the paddle blade and tossed to the wharf., "Perhaps you can pipe a tune upon IL” she said, dipping the paddle. ■ “You put ' me under great obliga­ tions,” I declared. "Are all the girls at St Agatha's as amiable?" *T shouldn't say so! I'm a great ex­ ception,—and—I • really shouldn’t be talking to you at ail! It's against the rules! And we don't encourage smok­ ing.” • "The chaplain doesn't smoke, I sup­ pose." "Not in chapel; I believe it isn’t done! And we rarely see him any­ where else.” She had idled with the paddle so far, but now she lifted her eyes and 4rew back the blade for a long stroke. "But in the wood.—this morning— by the wall!" I hate myself to this day for haring so startled her. The poised blade dropped Into the water with a splash; she brought the canoe a trifle nearer to the wharf with - an almost Imper­ ceptible stroke, and turned toward me with wonder and dismay tn her eyes. "So you are an eavesdropper and de­ tective, are you? I beg that youfwill give your master my compliments! I really owe you an apology; I thought you were a gentleman,” she exclaimed with withering emphasis, and dipped her blade deep In flight I called, stammering incoherently, after her, but her light argosy skimmed the water steadily. The paddle rose and fell with trained precision, making scarcely a ripple as she stole softly away toward the fairy towers of the sunset. I stood looking after her, goaded with self-contempt A glory of purple and scarlet and gold filled the west. Suddenly the wind moaned in the wood behind the line M cottages, swept over me and rippled the surface of the lake. I watched Its flight until it caught her canoe and I marked the flimsy craft's quick response, as the shaken waters bore her alert figure up­ ward on the swell, her blade still main­ taining Its regular dip, until she dis­ appeared behind a little peninsula that made a harbor near the school grounds. . The red tam-o’-shanter seemed at last to merge in th« red sky. and I turned cheerlessly to my canoe.

We wish to call the attention of the public to a to a series of “short talks” by L. T. Cooper that are to be published in this paper. ‘ C. The Cooper medicines have made a remarkable re­ cord in the leading citier of the United States during the past two years and young Mr. Cooper has been the sub­ ject of much newspaper comment. (I. Mr. Cooper has met and talked with thousands of sick people in his visits to almost every large city in the country. , i . (L He is noted as a man of very few words and tells briefly in these articles what his preparations are doing for sick people and why they have been successful wherever introduced. C. Mr. Cooper’s theory is that one halt of all human ills is caused by stomach trouble, and the wonderful sue* cess of his preparations in the treatment of stomach disorders, kidney and liver complaints, rheumatism, etc., seems to have proven this claim. <1 Some time ago we secured icy for these celebrated medicines. We have gratified by the extreme satisfaction of those who have purchased'them from us and advise every one to read these “short talks” as they are full of terse, common sense. Central tDrug Store—C.

The pret­ tiest things in spring suits ever shown in the two counties and the prices are RIGHT. O. G. Munroe ASfSEEN BY EATON COUNTY. There seems to be a deadlock be­ tween the board of directors of the Barry and Eaton Farmer’s Mutual Fire Insurance Company and its new secretary, Mr. E. V. Smith, on tlie matter of the location of the latter’s office. The directors, who would nat­ urally seem to be the ones to direct, have voted unanimously to locate tlie office at Hastings, which would not be convenient for Smith, iyho lives near Nashville, and the proposition is, therefore, opposed by him. Mr. Smith made his canvas for the position largely on the promise that he would hold his office at Nashville, and there is no doubt that many along the line ; of the counties voted for him for that reason. With all Eaton county much nearer Nashville than Hastings and ten Eaton county members present at the Charlotte meeting to one from Barry, it was no wonder that Mr. Smith’s workers paralyzed all the op­ position, coming as it did from Hast­ ings. After such a canvas it is Incumbent on Mr. Smith to stand for the office at Nashville and really, we can not see any serious opposition to his position so far as the company's interests are concerned. The members do not c me in contact to any great extent with the secretary and, if they did, more could reach him readily at Nashville than from any other place in the company's territory excepting Vermontville. If, however the direc­ tors see it to be to the best interests of the company for "Mr. Smith to have his office at Hastings, perhaps they may compel him to go there. How­ ever, his choice on that issue by a large majority over three able com­ petitors, doesn’t look especially as though the rank and flip of the com­ pany is concerned about his removing to Hastings. It isn’t so important where a man is as what he is. If Mr. Smith is allowed to remain at Nash­ ville and makes an A No. 1 officer, he will probably be re-elected perhaps as long as his predecessor, but if he fails to satisfy the demands of a highly intelligent constituency, he will go out on one term, very likely, no mat­ ter where his office is located. Tlie old Barry & Eaton has saved its members thousands of dollars in the past and no bad blood should lie stirred up over such matters as that of the location of an office.—Charlotte Tribune. Girlhood and Scoffs Emulsion are linked together.

The orchestra is composed of tbe fallowing members: Hiram W. Walrath. leadfer: Harry Johnson, cornet; Dr. E. T. Morris, flute; H. L. Walrath, clarinet; John Freeman, trombone; Katheryn Bowen, piano; Clark Belknapp, drums. The or­ chestra has rounded into an organi­ zation that can produce music second to very few orenestras in the state, especially in towns the size of Nash­ ville^ The class of music they are playing is the best that is written and they handle it with the familiarity of veterans. That such an organization is appreciated by the people is shcArn by tue pride they show in speaking of it. It has always been hard work to keep any kind of a musical organiz­ ation together in Nashville -and Mr. Walrath,' the leaded, is to be com­ mended for his efforts in giving to Nashville an orchestra of such high class. They have many engagements ahead and are putting their best en­ deavors forward to make their music still better. A. H. Wright of Grand Rapids visited his sisters, Mrs. Golden and Mis* May ' Wright.

The bill that promises to furnish one of the big fights of the session, the two-cent fare bill, was -given an­ other start when the general passen­ ger agents of several Michigan roads were given a hearing in the senate. Railroad officials present included J. H. P. Hughart, Grand Rapids & In­ diana; 'Herman Moeller. Pere Mar­ quette; F. A. Carroll, P., O. &.N.; F. A. Mitchell, Manistee & Northeastern; J. J. Kirby, Ann Arbor, and several others.. In a.general way they all con­ tended that a flat two-cent rate would hurt the small roads, and that the larger ones would be handicapped on account of their branches which do only a local business. E. O. Wood, of Flint, made Mr. Carroll, of the P., O. & N., which was referred to as one of the poor roads running through sparsely settled country, admit that his road is now selling a 500 mile book for ten dollars flat. He also brought out the fact that the Pere Marquette now carries passengers from Flint to Detroit for one and ontfhalf cents per mile, due to competition from an electric line. “The people of Michigan,” said Mr. Wood, "want just what the people of' Nebraska, Iowa. Missouri and Ohio are now getting. The trouble is that you railroad men are too narrow, and the time has come when we must show you the way. Now play fair and give us a square deal." President Hughart pre­ sented the report of the railway .com­ mission of Wisconsin, which he had found after an exhaustive Investiga­ tion, that a flat two-cent rate was not fair to the railroads under existing conditions. He then went on to show that conditions in Wisconsin and Michigan are closely allied. After a conference the members of the com mlttee decided to hold a Anal hearing on March 25, when the committee will draft a bill and present it for passage Bill Affects State Banks. Representative Lord Introduced s bll) making It compulsory for the di­ rectors of all state banks to appoln1 an auditing committee of three dl rectors who shall examine tbe ac counts semi-annually and prepare a report which shall become part of the records of the bank and file a copy •with the banking commissioner. The object of this is to secure greater safe­ guard and prevent banks "from claim­ ing entire reliance upon the examina­ tions made by the banking examiner. Lord is also drafting a bill permit­ ting the Incorporation dt banks In cities of less than 1,000 population on a capitalization of 110,000. The pres­ ent limit is $20,000. If this bill la agreed to It will have the effect of putting private banks out of business and obviate the necessity of legisla­ tion to compel private banks to come under state supervision.

Medical men were very much in evi­ dence when a joint hewring was held on Representative L'Esperanoe’s bill amending the medical registration act. The purposes of. the new bill are to give the term “the practice of medi­ cine" a more exact definition, and to give .this board a better legal standing in the prosecution of quacks. Bplce was given to the session by the pres­ ence of Dr. Hal C. Wyman, who is op­ posed to the principle of the bill. A number of opticians were also present asking for specific exemption from the terms ot the bill, the contention be­ ing that the bill gives the,board an en­ tering wedge to force opticians to come under the provisions of the act.

CRAYTON* McCANTS (Copyright, by Jowph B. BowlM.) ’ Since .the summer had coma, I had left my office in the town and had gone out to that old plantation upon which 1 was reared and which hecentiy I have purchased. No . lack ot occupation bars I there, nor of friends. For me the river mur­ murs and the old-fashioned roses bloom; for me at sundown the negroes chant their plaintive melodies; and for me the warm night falls, the twinkling surs come out, and the moon rises over the pines. Also Isaacsohn is accusthmed to visit me there. Now Isaacsohn represents the restless energy and tho ‘ kindly genius ot a wandering commercialism, for he Is a peddler, and goes. from door to door bearing a voluminous padc and an apt and regdy tongue. It was ten o’cldbk rfn the midsummer morning when last this cheerful itin­ erant came my way. Overhead the sun shone with exceptional fervor, and out in the dusty middle-stretch of the highway the heatwaves rose and shim­ mered until the white, dog-roses in the farther nedge seemed but the shadows of blossoms grown faint and tremu­ lous. Through this quivering haze I beheld from my seat on my broad vine-shaded piazza an odd figure com­ ing down the road—a figure humped like a camel and equipped with two legs and a staff. .A closer look en­ abled me to discern the face of a man. who. when he reached my gate, un­ latched it and turned inside. “Ah! Goodt morning, sqvlre! A hot morning Idt las.” I recognized Isaacsohn. To tell the. truth about the matter, 1 was tired of uy own company, and was not sorry to see tne face of the man. "Come In!” I called, as the fellow stood hesitating and mopping his hot brow -With a bright red handkerchief.

About three months ago I had to hire a new ofllce boy. and I thought I’d make sure right at the start that there would be no grandmothers’ funerals to at­ tend when the Giants were in town. There were -about 20 boys waiting for me one morning that my adver­ tisement appeared, and 1 called them all into my office, where I made them stand up In a row so that I could look them over. After I had picked out five or six of the most likely look­ ing little fellows I told the others they could go. Then from the ones who remained I began the work of making a choice. I wanted to do my selecting In a scientific manner. I studied the countenance of each of the boys, noting the shape of his head, the formation of his chin, the expres­ sion of his eyes, ajpd so on. In that way I culled out aljl but two, who were flne-lookjng youngsters and as bright as they were handsome. They an­ swered my questions with a quickness and an Intelligence that was highly gratifying, and when I had finished that part of the examination.! was still undecided as to which of them I should hire. “Then I told them to sit down at a desk, where 1 tested their penman­ ship. their spelling and their knowl-. edge of English. They both exhibited remarkable efficiency, and I was un­ able to discover wherein one of them had any advantage over the other. But the great test was to come. If one of them had told me that his mother was a poor widow and the other had confessed that his parents were both alive and capable of tak­ ing care of him, I would, of course, have chosen the fatherless boy. They both Informed me. however, that their fathers were well and strong, that they had comfortable homes, and that their own ambition was responsible for the fact that the> were seeking work. " ’Now, boys,’ I said at last, ’I want to know about your grandmothers.’ "I should have mentioned the fact that one of the boys was a blonde and the other a brunette. “The blonde boy replied that both of his grandmothers had died before he was born, but the other confessed that he still had one grandmother who- lived in Massachusetts. Well. I decided not to take any chances. That grandmother might come out here to visit and die while the Giants 'or tbe Pirates or the Clevelands or some other team was filling an en­ gagement on the local grounds. “So I hired the blonde boy, and for two weeks everything was lovely. I couldn't help congratulating myself every day on the wisdom I had shown in making my selection. Then the blow fell. Three of that boy’s grown­ up sisters have got married during tbe last month, and heaven only knows how many more weddings there may be in his family before the baseball season closes.”—Chicago Record-Har­ ald. . rnr$. rn. e.

Where it use to neces­ sitate the expenditure of a considerable sum to procure carpets, rugs, etc., it takes very little now in comparison. The manner of handling this business has changed also. It use to be that all carpets were sold from the roll and nearly all the floors in the community were covered with the same pattern; the purchaser paying for the waste in matching and having to make the carpet themselves. This has all changed as now you buy from sample and instead of conflning your choice to two or three patterns you now select from a hundred or more, have no waste to pay for and get the carpet made without expense to the customer. All this is brought about by enter­ prising merchants having special sales and dis­ plays. If you desire to choose a carpet though you may not need it for six months the number you select will be entered in a book and the carpet gotten for you when von desire. There will be on exhibition one hutadred and fifty samples of carpets ranging in pn3b from 40 cents, to *1.50 per yard and will include the best patterns from the best mills in the country, theregnlar price per yard with no charge for matching or making. Also rugs, all kinds, sizes and price, linoleum, matting, etc. Show commences Saturday tbe 80th, and will continue one week. You will not be asked to buy, simply come and look them over, it is the chance of the year. If you desire to buy we will be pleased to sell.

I Hardwood Wanted Nashville Lumber E i MEATS 5 * *!» a « SWLNGLR; 8 BROS London, March 26.—That the Rou­ manian government considers the re­ cent trouble In Moldavia and Walla­ chia to be a result of similar disturb­ ances In the adjacent provinces of Russia, and not of an anti-Jewish ■character, is evident from a communi­ cation made by Premier Cantacuzene and telegraphed by him from Buchar­ est to London. The premier says: “The grave troubles which have broken out in Roumanla do not arise from any antl-semltlc feeling. They are of a well defined agrarian charac­ ter. The ’peasants are not only de­ vastating the houses and farms of Jewish farmers, but also those of Roumanian landed proprietors. It is undeniable that these sad occurrences arejn part a result of the agitation now’ prevalent in Russia, especially In Bessarabia, which borders on Roumanla. “Tbe Roumanian government is tak­ ing energetic measures to'restore or­ der and it hopes that by active mili­ tary intervention .rioting quickly will be suppressed. Immediately there­ after the government will Introduce a series of measures providing for the necessary agrarian reforms." • Peasants Plunder and Bum. Bucharest, Roumanla. March 26.— The plundering continues on a large scale In tbe districts of Roman, Putna. Jassy and Botosahni. The peas­ ants are setting fire to everything within reach, but they flee on the ap­ pearance of the soldiery. The foreign consuls at Jassy have asked the authorities to take meas­ ures to protect the resident foreign­ ers. and the prefect of Jassy has given assurances that the necessary pre­ cautions will be taken. The minister of war has ordered the mobilization of four additional regiments at Jassy, where 12,000 troops already have been concentrat­ ed. At Jassy the artillery is encamped on the principal street. All the shops In town are closed. It la re­ ported that a very large number of peasants, estimated at from 40,000 to 50,000, are ready to advance and at­ tack the place. Copies of a manifesto were distributed In Jassy Sunday ac­ cusing the government ot responsibili­ ty for the recent disorders and advis­ ing the people to take the law Into their own hands. The author of this manifesto, tbe procurator of Vaslul, has been dismissed from office. A condition of anarchy prevails at Nanolosia. and the reports from that village are alarming. Troops Kill 200 at Galatz. . A bloody encounter between peas­ ants and military is reported from Galatz, where on Sunday the troops fired on a gathering of peasants kill­ ing 200. From Vaslul It Is reported that or­ ganized bands of robbers are maraud­ ing the district. The leaders of these bands have assumed the title of “gen­ eral” and contributions are being levied from all villages and farms. Reports from the naphtha districts show that this section of the coun­ try is still quiet. Austrian gendarmes at Zenatzy have arrested some Roumanian dlers who were endeavoring to loot. The situation arising from the agrarian revolt has become so serious that the Roumanian parliament is considering the advisability of Invest­ ing the ' government with extraordi­ nary powers. It Is declared that the health of King Carol has suffered as a result of these disorders. MORTON SALT BLOCK BURNS. Great Structure in Hutchinson, Kan. Destroyed—Loss, $500,000. Edinburgh recalled the old days when human life was held very cheap and judges frequently indulged In levity when life was at stake. On one occasion Sir Francis Bacon was “tnlghtily importuned” by a male­ factor to save his Ute. All appeals failed and tbe culprit at length pleaded fur mercy on account of his kindred. "Your name," said he. "Is Bacon and ray name is Hog, and in all ages Hog and Bacon are so nearly kindred that they, are not to- be.sepa­ rata!.'* “Aye-. but.” replied the judge, "you and I cannot be kindred except •you be hanged, for Hog Is not Bacon until it be well' hanged.’’ Similar callousness was evinced by' Scottish judges even as late as the 16th century. Lord Braxfield seemed te have taken a positive pleasure In obtaining convictions tn cases and It was he who told an unfortunate cul­ prit that he was a'very clever fellow but that he would be “Dane the waur o* a-hanging." On another occasion, when this judge noticed a juryman who was a personal friend entering the court he exclaimed: "Come awa' Mister, come awa', and help me to hang a few o’ they damned fccoondrels." In 1870 Lord Kaimes presided at the trial ot a man named Matthew Hay, with whom he .had been in the habit of playing at chess. Ht summed up against the prisoner and when he was -convicted exclaimed.

Warner Will Not Support Bill. Gov. W’arner will not support tbs railroad commission bill in its pres­ ent shape and the railroad committes will allow It to rest until the twocent fare bill is disposed of. There Is a joker in the commission bill, the evident purpose of which Is to take the rate question out of the hands of the legislature. The very last clause In the bill which amends section 634 of tbe compiled laws of 1897, gives the proposed committee power "to regulate the time and manner in which passengers and property shall be transported and the tolls and,com­ pensation to be paid therefor.** It Is doubtful whether under the constitu­ tion the legislature, can delegate the power to fix rates, and if this were done It would give the railroads op­ portunity to test that quertion In the courts .and tie up the fare proposi­ tion for several years. .“It strikes me,** said the governor, “that the commission can regulate rates from a two-cent standpoint as well as from three cents. I shaj) oppose any such tactics and believe that it Is the duty of the legislature to pass the twocent fare bill without any unneces­ sary delay." Attorney Hal Smith has redrafted the proposed railroad commission bill, leaving 4t to be fought out in the leg­ islature. as it was found Impossible to get the steam and electric railway officials to agree oh all the points. It is not likely that the measure will be discussed until the two-cent fare prop-' osltlon Is disposed of, and this will take several weeks. Great doubt is expressed that the bill will be passed, but in the event that it does Smith will be urged as a candidate for a place - on the commission. Railroad Commissioner Glasgow will go over the bill and make such changes as he desires before it is Introduced. The matter of interchanging freight be­ tween steam and electric lines is pro­ vided for in the bill.

Perkins had a buggy and some other things at Garlinger's place, and went after them Monday morning. Silsby told him he could not < have his buggy . until he brought back a canvas which Silsby accused him of taking away with nim prior to this occurrence. Perkiris started away with the buggy and Silsby interfered, and then the trouble commenced, right lively. Perkins claims Silsby thumped him, and Silsby claims that Perkins delved into his trousers pocket and pulled out a knife as big as a young cheese knife, with which he proceeded to carve Silsby’s anatomy. In proof of his charges, Silsby displays an ugly gash on his nose and another in his coat; which he says was made by Perkins trying to stab him in the back while he was fleeing to the house to escape from the wrath to come.

He showed no sign of surprise, and I was nettled felt, a certain element of recklessness la my visit to the bouse of a man who had shown so singular as interest in menL” ”It’a too late, Mr. Glenarm; too late. There was a time when we might have done some business; but that’s past now. You seem like a pretty decent fellow, too, and I’m sorry I didn’t see you sooper; but better luck next time.” “Well," I said, seeing that I should only make myself ridiculous by trying to learn anything from him, ”1 hope our little spats through windows and on walls won’t interfere with our pleasant social relations. And I don’t hesitate to tell you,”—I was exerting myself to keep down my anger.—"that if I catch you on my ground again I’ll fill you with lead and sink you in the lake." "Thank you. sir.” he said, with so perfect an imitation of Bates' voice and manner that I smiled in spite of myself. "And now, if you'll promise not to fire into my back I’ll wish you good day. Otherwise—” He snatched off bls hat and bowed profoundly. "It'll suit me much better , to continue handling the case on your As I turned away he closed hi* door with a slam.—a delicate way of assur­ ing me that he wa* acting in good faith, and not preparing to puncture my back with a rifle ball. I regained the lake shore, feeling no' great* dis­ couragement over the lean results of my Interview, but rather a fresh sest for the game, whatever the game might be. The bud was going his ruddy way beyond SL- Agatha’s as I drove my canoe into a little cove near which the girl In the tamo’-shanter had dis­ appeared the day before. The shore was high here and at the crest was a long curved bench of stone, boldly reminlscenttal of Alma Tadema. and as clearly the creation of John Marshall Glenarm as^hough bis name had been carved upon It. It was assuredly a spot for a pipe and a mood, and- as the shadows crept through the wood before me and the water, stirred by the rising wind, be­ gan to beat below. I Invoked the on* and yielded to the other. Something in the withered grass at my feet caught my eye. I bent and picked up a string of gold bead*, dropped there, no doubt, by some girl from the school or careless member of the summer col­ ony. I counted the separate beads— they were round and there were 50 of them. The proper length for one turn about a girl’s throat. ■ perhaps; not more than that! I lifted my eye* and looked off toward St. Agatha’s. “Child of the red tam-o’-shanter, I’m very sorry I was rude to you yester­ day, for I liked your steady stroke with the paddle; and I admired, even more, the way you spurned me. when you saw that among all the cads In the world I am number one In Class A. And these golden bubbles (O girl of the red tam-o’-shanter!), if they .are not yours you shall help me to find the owner, for we are neighbors, you and I, and there must be peace be­ tween our bouses.” With this foolishness I rose, thrust the bead* into my-pocket, and paddled home in the waning glory of the sun­ set. That night, as I was" going quite late to bed, bearing a.candle to light me through the dark hall to my room, I heard a curious sound, as of some one walking In the house. At first I thought Bates was still abroad, but I waited, listening for several minutes, without being able to mark the exact direction of the sound or to identify it with him. I went on to the door of my room, and ■till a muffled step seemed to follow mo,—first It had come from below, then it wa* much like some one going up stairs,—but where? In my own room I still heard steps, light, slow but distinct Again there was a stum­ ble and a hurried recovery,—ghost*, I reflected, do not fall down stairs! The sound died away, seemingly in some distant part of the house, and though I prowled about for an hour it did not recur that night CHAPTER IX. The Qlrl and the Rabbit Wind and rain rioted in the wood, and occasionally both fell upon the library windows with a howl and a splash. The tempest had wakened me; it seemed that every chimney, in the house held a screaming demon. We were now well launched upon De­ cember. and I was growing used to my surroundings. I had offered myself frequently as a target by land and wa­ ter; I had sat on the wall and tempted fate; and I had roamed the house con­ stantly expecting to surprise Bates in some act of treachery; but the days were passing monotonously. Twice I had seen the red tam-o'-shanter far through the wood, and once I had passed my young acquaintance with another girl, a dark, laughing young­ ster, walking In the highway, and she had bowed to me Indifferently. Even the ghost m the wall proved incon­ stant, but I had twice heard the steps without being able to account for them. Memory kept plucking my sleeve with reminders of my grandfather. I was touched at finding constantly his marginal notes in the bocks he had collected with po much Intelligence and loving care. It occurred to me that some memorial, a tablet attached to the outer wall, or perhaps, more prop­ erly placed in the chapel, would be fit­ ting; and I experimented with designs for it covering many sheets of draw­ ing paper in an effort to set forth in a few words some hint of his character. On this gray morning I produced this: B3S Oe life of RUnhall ffleura vasa testtBoiy to the virtue of teaerotltv. forbearance and aearteaew Che beaatifal tW*r he loved were aot nobler than Mf own dayt Bit grandson (who served bla IU) writes this of hia HOI I had sketched these word* on * piece of cardboard and was studying them critically when Bates came in with wood.

The following simple home-made mixture is said to relieve any form of rheumatism or backache, also cleanse and strengthen the Kidneys and Blad­ der, overcoming all urinary disorders, if taken before the stage of Bright’s disease: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound K argon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsa­ parilla, three ounces. Mix by shak­ ing well in a bottle and take in tea­ spoonful doses after meals and at bedtime. A well-known authority states that these ingredients are mainly of vege­ table extraction, and harmless to use, and can be obtained at small cost from any good prescription phar­ macy. Those who think they have kidney trouble or suffer with lame back or weak bladder or rheumatism, should give this prescription a trial, as no harm can possibly follow its use. and it is said to do wonders for some people. Successful “Faith Tea. A “faith tea" was held at Swanage. England, in connection with a temper­ ance mission. No provisions were or­ dered. but those attending were to have faith and trust that the necessary food would be sent In. So generous was the supply that not only was there enough for tea, but a supper was add­ ed later In the evening, and the scrip­ tural basketfuls were left over for dis­ tribution among the poor. “When my friends thought I was about to take leave of this world, on account of indigestion, nervousness and general debility," writes A. A. Chisholm, Treadwell, N. Y., "and when it looked as if there was no hope left, I was persuaded to try Electric Bitters, and I rejoice to say dial they are curing me.

For this reason mothers and others should insist on having Dr. Shoop's Cough Cure. No poison-marks on Dr. Shoop’s labels—and none in the medicine, else by law it must be on the labels.

I The gas mantle la nothing but ashes and it Is wonderful bow science, makes Its particles cling together as long aa they do. The gas mantle was Invented by a chemist of Vienna. He noticed the Intense light given out by a small quantity of thorium thrown into a stove in his laboratory. He realized the Importance of the discovery and in 1880 began a series of experiments to utilize this remarkable quality of the element in Intensifying ll|Jht He found that pure thorium would not cohere well enough to be of use, and he then began searching for a com­ bination of elements that would an­ swer. In 1887 he produced his first man­ tles. but they were 60 delicate that they could not be transported, and wore delivered by hand. A boy was trusted to carry two, one in each band, for delivery about the streets of Vienna. In the early '90's he found that a good mantle could be made from a combination of the two sub­ stances, thorium oxide and cerium ox­ ide, aud that a coating of collodion would give a sufficient firmness to al­ low it to be transported. Since then gas mantles have gone into general uoe in nearly all parts of the world, and thousands of factories are pro­ ducing them. HASTINGS. STONY POINT.

Warner insist­ ed .very emphatically -that a bill cjverning private banks should -be enact­ ed by the legislature, and he said re­ cently that just as soon as railroad matters are disposed ot he would turn his attention to the private banks. As yet no bill has been Introduced, and for some reason Senator McKay, of Caro, who introduced the private banking bill last session, will not re­ introduce the measure again. “So many private bankers do not want to come under the state law,” said he in explanation, “and it would be a pretty bard matter to draft a bill that would satisfy them all. Speaking to the point, they should be, of course, but I understood that the governor want­ ed the Lord bill, and I do not know what I will do." Representative Lord tried to find a middle course by in­ troducing a bill which reduces the capitalization required of state banks.At present the lowest amount is $20,J)00 and the Lord bill fixes 910,000 for villages under 1,000 population and 915,000 in villages of not over 1,500. His argument is that more state banks will be incorporated when less capital Is required, and that therefore the private banks will have less rea­ son for existence. . Hew to Keep Young.

ESMtI’xaWSS!. Dr. Shoop’s Rheumatic Remedy OLDEN ENGLISH ALE WILL NOT BE CRIPPLED LIKE FINDING MONEY. Von W. Furniss, the popular drugBiirt, is making an offer that is just ke finding money for he is selling a regular 50 cent bottle of Dr. Howard’s specific for the cure of constipation and dyspepsia at half-price. In ad­ dition to this large discount he agrees to return the mbney to any purchaser whom the specific does not cure. ■ It is quite unusual to be able to buy fifty cent pieces for a quarter, but that is what this offer really means, for it is only recently, thru •’ j solic­ itation of Druggist Von W. Furniss that tills medicine could be bought for less than fifty cents, he urged the proprietors to allow him to sell it at this reduced price for a little while, agreeing to sell a certain amount. The result has justified tbeir good judgment, for the sale has been some­ thing remarkable. Anyone who suffers with headache, dyspepsia, dizziness, sour stomach, specks before the eyes, or any liver trouble, should take advantage of this opportunity, for Dr. Howard’s specific will cure all these troubles. But if by any chance it should not, Von W. Furniss will return your money. Eaaily Cured With URIC-O. it might interest Rheumatic suffer­ ers of this country to learo tbe wonder­ ful work that Uric-O is doing towards the relief and cure of this dreaded dis­ ease. Letters of praise are received daily from men and women who have used the remedy with the greatest suc­ cess.

April 1.—It is probable that the Thaw lunacy commission will report Thursday morning The case wm adjourned last week until Mon­ day morning. and when the jury wm called before the court Justice Flugerald adjourned again the trial until Thursday morning at 10:30 o'clock. The lunacy commission will meet Tuesday and it is expected that they will be ready to report Thursday.' In case the commission finds that Thaw is to-day insane within tbe meaning of the law tbe trial will bo stopped, but if they find that be is capable, of going on tbe trial will be resumed at once. It is doubtful if the defense will call any other witnesses, although it has been said that Evelyn Nesbit Thaw would be recalled to re­ peat her story of the Hummel affi­ davit As soon as the defense rests the summing up will begin and will, under the agreement made between the attorneys, last tor two days. Subpoena for Evelyn. Whetf Mrs. Evelyn Thaw made her daily visit to her husband in „ the Tombs Monday she was met by a process -server who handed her a subpoena directing her to appear be­ fore the lunacy commission. Mrs. Thaw apparently had not anticipated this move, and she appeared very much disturbed when the nature of the paper .was marie known to her. "Do they expect me to testify against my husband?" she asked. She was told that her presence probably was desired merely as a matter of, routine, but this did not seem to assure her. District Attorney Jerome declined to make known his purpose in calling Mrs. Thaw before the commission. The members of the Thaw jury have drawn up a petition to Justice Fitzgerald asking him to allow them five dollars a day for jury services instead of tbe customary allowance of two dollars a day. Their action Is based on an instance in which the court made a similar Increase in the jury’s allowance after the case had been extended to sn unusual length. Jerome May Call Thaw Alienists. It was reported Monday that when the lunacy commission resumes Its hearing Mr. Jerome will call as his witnesses Drs. Pilgrim and Gregory, of this city, two of the alienists engaged by the defense, and will endeavor to prove by them that Thaw is now in­ sane. Dr. Pilgrim is head of the New York state lunacy commission and Dr. Gregory is in charge of the psycho­ pathic ward of Bellevue hospital. Both of them are said to have had on sev­ eral occasions conversations with the defendant during "the trial. Washington, April 2.-rPresldent Roosevelt has decided not to accept j the Invitation of the Illinois Manufac- • turers' association to deliver a speech . at Springfield. IIL. on the railroad situation. He has addressed a letter to C. H. Smith, president of the as­ sociation, stating that it would be Im­ possible for him to accept their invi­ tation. extended last week, because he did not feel that he had anything to say at this time In a special address on this special subject. Has Nothing to Say at Present. The president has received, a great number of. requests for a statement by him, or a speech to be made by him in connection with the railway situa­ tion. He has given these requests the utmost weight and most careful consideration. After fully looking Into the matter the president Informed his advisers that, he had come to the con­ clusion that there was nothing now which he had to say at this moment cn the .railway situation: that he did not deem It either'Wise or proper to say anything with a view to any Im­ mediate situation In Wall street, and that he should only give expression to the' definite and settled policy to be carried out wholly without regard to the exigencies of the momentt and as hiB views on the policy In question were already a matter of record. It did not seem necessary at this time to repeat them. To the different men friendly and unfriendly, who have visited him or written to him, he has answered verb­ ally or In writing, that his words and acta spoke for themselves, and needed no explanation whatever, and that he should not in his future course devi­ ate one hand's breadth from the cc.-r-*o be has pursued in the past and was now pursuing. No Adverse Action Planned. The statement was made from an authoritative source that "even a most cursory examination of what the president has repeatedly said In speech and message will show the ut­ ter nonsense of supposing the gov­ ernment has tbe slightest Intention to take any action which would invali­ date the safety and stability of the railway securities now Issued, the whole legislative programme of the president having been proclaimed again and again as one to insure the future against the mistakes and delin­ quencies of the past. The president holds that every executive action taken under his administration, wheth­ er by the department of justice or by the- interstate commerce commission, has furnished its own ample justifica­ tion. It was pointed out In administration circles that the president had made no references In his speeches or mes­ sages on the question of the physical valuation of tbe railroads. His position on this question. It was said. Is that ’ the roads themselves will work out this prob­ lem as an item of bookkeeping, and reference was made to the fact that two roads, the Northern Pacific and the Great Northern, already have sub­ mitted figures as to their physical val­ uation. It can be stated authoritatively that the president again will ask congress at its next session, for power to deal with the question of over­ capitalization of railroads. A sim­ ilar request was made at the last session but favorable action was not taken upon IL 'Incloses Copies of Speeches. In his letter to Mr. Smith the pres­ ident Inclosed copies of a “speech" he made at Raleigh, N. C., October 19, 1905, and the one he delivered before a delegation of railway employes in this city on November 14, 1905, to­ gether with bls last message to con­ gress at the beginning of the first and second sessions of the last congress. The president concludes his letter to Mr. Smith as follows: "You will see in the two speech­ es and the message that I have said about all that I would say If I speak now. As I said to your body the oth­ er day, I have already expressed again and again my carefully thought out beliefs. I am more firmly than ever convinced that these beliefs are wise, and that the policy I recommended In my messages at the opening of each cf the last regular sessions of con­ gress must be carried ouL Just at the moment I do not see that I have much to add to what I have already said and I think that what has oc­ curred since I wrote the two mes­ sages in question merely Illustrates in striking fashion the desirability of the course I therein outlined." CHAFLAlrt IB BELLIGERENT. Peculiar Prayer in the Texas House of Representatives. Austin, Tex., April 2.—Chaplain Joyce of the house of representatives, Monday morning in his regular morn­ ing prayer at the opening of the ses­ sion said: "Hundreds of meh in the rtate are to-day cursing the laws recently enact­ ed. Why do they not come and curse the lawmakers? Perhaps they have a wholesome fear that their teeth will be knocked down their throats by the fists of the smart lawmakers. Hun­ dreds of thousands are blessing those laws: why not bless tbe men that passed them?" The recent enactment of certain re­ form legislation has caused the mem­ bers of the legislature to be the sub­ jects of considerable criticism. FOUR KILLED BY A TRAIN.

Forty years ago Jacob Lente, frexli from southern GermanV, made his way across country to die collection of half a dozen buildings that was then Nashville and in a dreary little main street shop began manufacturing crude handmade furniture. He worked alone, fashioning, finishing and up­ holstering. His, wfththe exception of the flourmill, was tbe first Nashville industry. Gradually his business grew andofce after another his three sons, Louis, Charles and Albert, came into' the shop and learned the furniture making trade. The boys -learned the trade as it,is not now* taught, from beginning to end, and then other workmen came into the shop until it outgrew its Main street quarters, even after several enlargements and ad­ ditions. Outside trade, attracted by the pure worth of the furniture nut out by non­ est old Jacob Lentz, began flooding him with orders and finally the busi­ ness blossomed to the proportions of a factory. Soon it was deemed best to specialize and the factory became known as the Lentz Table company. It bus grown with the village and is to­ day its principal’ and biggest in­ dustry at Nashville. . Nashville wanted a voice in the con­ duct of its biggest factory some years ago and the Lentz famil? in­ corporated at $40,000. The Lentz father and sons own a controlling in­ terest in the business and Louis E. Lentz is the manager. The father has retired from active work at the factory and though eighty years of age has I full charge of the Lenu & Sons store, established by him as a side issue to the -manufacturing business years rZ ago. His sons are associated' with him in the retail business. The table corrfpany is one of the recognized factors in this branch of the •Michigan furniture industry. It has more orders than it can fill and gives employment to more than one hundred men. Boys and cheap labor have no place in the Lentz factory. capacitr. Mrs. Kyser expects to arrive here today.

I moved about from shelf to shelf, taking down one book after another, and while thus engaged came upon a series of large volumes extra Illustrated In water col­ ors of unusual beauty. They occupied a lower shelf, and I sprawled on the floor like a boy with a new picture book In my absorption, piling the great volumes about me. .They were on related subjects pertaining to the French chateaux. In the last volume I found a sheet of white note paper no larger than my hand, a forgotten book mark, 1 as­ sumed, and half crumpled It in my fin­ gers before I noticed the lines ot a pencil sketch on ono side ot ft. I carried It to the table and spread It out. It was not the bit of Idle penciling It had appeared to be at first sight A scale had evidently been followed ana the lines drawn with a ruler. With such trifles my grandfather had no doubt amused himself. There was a long corridor Indicated, but of this I could make nothing. I studied It for several minutes, thinking it might have been a tentative sketch of acme part of the house. In turning it about several places the glaze had b-sen rubbed from tbe paper by an eraser, and this piqued my curiosity.

My curiosity was thoroughly aroused as to the hid­ den corners of the queer old house,, round which the wind shrieked tormentlngly. I went to my room; put on my corduroy coat, took a candle and went below. One .o’clock in the morning Is not the most cheering hour for exploring the dark recesses of a strange house, but I had resolved to have a look at the ravine opening and determine. If possible, whether it bare any-relation to "The Door of Be­ wilderment." All was quiet in the great cellar; only here and. there an area window rattled dolorously. I carried a tape­ line with me and made measurements of the length and depth of' the corri­ dor "and of the chambers that were set • off from It. These figures I entered In my rtatebook for further use, and sat down on an empty nail keg to reflect The place was certainly substantial; the candle at my feet turned steadily with no hint of a draft; but I saw no solution of my problem. I was losing sleep for nothing; my grandfather's sketch was meaningless, and I rose and picked up m>' candle, yawning. Then a curious thing happened. The candle, whose thin flame had risag un­ waveringly, sputtered and went out as a sudden gust swept the corridor. I had left nothing open behind me, but some one had gained Ingress to the cellar by an opening of which I knew nothing. I faced the stairway that led up to the back hall of the house when, to my astonishment, steps sounded be­ hind me, and, turning, I saw a man carrying a lantern coming toward me. I marked his careless step; ho was undoubtedly on familiar ground. As I watched him he paused, lifted the lan­ tern to a level with bls eyes and be­ gan sounding the outer corridor wall with a hammer. * • Here, undoubtedly, was my friend periodicity In the beat on the wall that I had heard In my own rooms. He began at the top and went method­ ically to • the floor. I leaned against the wall where I stood and watched the slow approach of the lantern. The small revolver with which I had first fired at his flying figure In the wood was in my pocket It was Just as well to have it out with the fellow now. My chances were as good as his, though I confess I did not relish the thought of being found dead tbe next morning in the cellar of my own house. It pleased my humor to let him approach In this way, unconscious that he was watched, until I should thrust my pistol into his face. His arms grew tired when he was about ten feet from me and he dropped the lantern and hammer to his side and swore under his breath impatiently. Then he began again with greater zeal. As he came nearer I studied his face in the lantern’s light with Inter­ est- His hat was thrust back, and I could see his Jaw hard set under hl» blond beard. He took a step nearer, ran his eyes over the wall and resumed his top­ ping. beginning close to the celling. In settling himself for the new series of strokes he swayed toward me slightly and I could hear his bard breathing. I was deliberating how best to throw myself upon him, but a* I wavered he stepped back, swore at his Hl luck and flung the hammer to the ground. "Thanks!" I shouted, leaping for­ ward and snatching the lantern. "Stand Just where you are!” With the revolver In ray right hand and the lantern held high In my left, I enjoyed his utter consternation, as my voiced roared In the corridor. “It's too bad we meet under such strange circumstances, Morgan," I said. “I’d begun to miss you; but 1 suppose you’ve been sleeping In the daytime to gather strength tor your night prowling." "You’re a fool,” he growled. He was recovering from his fright—I knew it by the gleam of his teeth in his yellow beard. His eyes, too. were moving restlessly about He undoubt­ edly knew the house better than I did. and was considering the best means of escape. I did not know what to do with him now that I had him at the point of a pistol; and in my Ignorance filled with uncertainty.

Plenty of clean bedding— shavings are best—plenty ol absorb­ ents in the gutter, with some slaked lime occasionally as a deodorizer, com­ plete the sanitary furnishings. For grounds, a cow needs but a small yard for exercise. Keep it filled with the leaves and takings from the lawn to prevent It from becoming muddy. These make good mulching later. , Grazing is best in summer, if it can be had, and green crops cut and fed are a good substitute. Oats and field peas, planted to secure a succession, will serve the purpose. There are al­ ways roadsides and odd corners that a cow can graze down, and the lawn may be sparingly utilized. When the pasturage begins to fall, the grain ra­ tion must be started to maintain a full milk flow. Feed what you can produce or buy to best advantage in your market. Simply stated, the balanced ration means the proper ratio between the fat-forming and bone-and-muscle-makIng elements of the feed stuffs. The amount and proportion of grains and roughage depend on the cow, and must be determined by experience. The winter ieed should consist of about ten or 15 pounds of mixed grain and 20 to 30 pounds of hay and rough­ age. Mixed timothy and clover hay is better for cows than clear timothy. Alfalfa hay la better than either, as it furnishes more of tbe muscle-forming elements so hard to get In the winter season. Roots are fine to supplement the dry winter feed. Grooming Is necessary not so much for the cow’s welfare as for the good of the milk. The amount of dirt that will find its way from the ungroomed cow's body to the milk pail is simply astonishing A vigorous use of the curry comb and brush each morning, followed by a wet sponge or damp cloth before milking, will effectually prevent the dirty sediment so often found In the bottom of the milk pitcher. Grooming is doubly necessary tn winter, when the cow is stabled. Apropos of flowers. It is not every­ body who has the knack of arranging them.

VON W.SFURNISS’ success. Von W. Furniss, the enterprising druggist, rather than await the ordinary methods of introduction, urged the Dr. Howard' Co. to secure a quick sale for their celebrated specific for the cure of constipation and dyrGpsia by offering the regular 50c ttle at half price. The wonderful success of this plan was a great surprise even to Von W. Furniss and today there are scores of people here in Nashville who are using and praising this remarkable remedy. So much talk has been caused by this offer, and so many new friends have been made for the specific, that tbe Dr. Howard Co. have authorized druggist Von W. Furniss to continue this special half-price sale for a limited time longer. In addition to belling a 50c bottle of Dr. Howard's specific for 25c Von W. Furniss has so much faith in the remedy that he will refund tbe money to anyone whom It does not cure. When vour bead aches, your stomach does not digest food easily and naturally, when there is consti­ pation, specks before the eyes, tired feeling, giddiness, bad taste in tbe mouth, coated tongue, heart-burn, sour stomach, roaring or ringing in the ears, melancholy, and liver troubles.

Men and women alike have to work incessantly with brain and hand to hold their own nowadays. Never were the demands of business, tbe wants of the family, the requirements of society, more numerous. The first effect of the praiseworthy effort to keep up with all these things is commonly seen in a weakened or debilitated condition of the nervous system, which results in dyspepsia, defective nutrition of both body and brain, and in extreme cases in com­ plete nervous prostration. It is clear­ ly seen that what is needed is what will sustain the system, give vigor and tone to the nerves, and keep the digestive and assimilative functions healthy and active. From personal knowledge, we can recommend Hood's Sarsaparilla for this purpose. It acts on all tbe vital organs, builds up the whole system, and Qis men and women for these high-pressure days.

Glasgow Makes the Home Happy Next to character and disposition the right kind of cooking does more to make a home worth living in than anything else. No matter what the house is like it isn’t really like HOME if good old-fashioned "mother’s” cooking isn’t done. But good cooking can’t be done with poor supplies. It takes the right quality to impart that appetizing taste to the food— to make one smack his lips and say, “You’re a good cook, Mrs. So and So.” We select the beet quality of Groceries.

The thing that goes to make, a success of any business is con­ fidence, and in a great measure that is what has made the success of the Farmers’ and Merchants bank. It has grown up with the village and by its safe and conservative business methods has gain­ ed a place that could be envied by any financial institution. This same confidence is what we are all looking after and there is no way that it can be gained better and more substantially than by having a good bank account. Some people think that no one cap have a bank account but those who already have lots of money, but they fail' to see how these same people got the money they have. In nine cases out of ten it was by a system of frugality—they saved .when they were earning. Our savings department is a boon to those who want to lay up for the “rainy day” that always comes some time during a lifetime. Start an account today; it doesn’t matter how much you start with if you start out to succeed you will do it. A dollar a week will make your account grow faster than you would realize; then, too, we pay you 3% compound interest which helps you. O. C. C. H. OFFICERS: A. TRUMAN..............................

VON FURNISS The meeting of the common council Monday night was very . interesting inasmuch as there was a large amount , of business transacted. The president made his appointments and they went through without dissension. The appointment of a street commissioner was deferred until later, on account of the strife which this matter has stirred up. A petition signed by one hundred and one residents of the village asking the president to appoint the present incumbent. Wm Woodard, was read: however Mr. Marshall would not make the appointment and the matter was left over until some future meeting, or may be left to go by ‘•default,” thus leaving Mr. Woodard in the position. Mr. Marshall did not feel that he could appoint Mr. Woodard, on personal reasons, and knew that any appointment other than that of Mr. Woodard would not be confirmed by the council, so he took the only course that was left for him. A petition was presented asking the council to take some action toward cleaning out the ditch that runs from east of the Lentz factory to Quaker brook. The petition stated that the ditch was in a bad condition and could not adequately carry off-the water that should flow thru ?t. The petition was- referred to the drain committee. S. -Liebhauser asked permission to attach to the school house sewer. The petition was granted. D. L. Hullinger’s resignation as engineer at the village pumping station was accepted and the water committee was instructed to make a contract with Erank Russell to fill the position at the same salary, S3L*a month. Mr. Russell is a compBKnt engineer and the council feel that jney have made a good selection. Mr. Russell will tlx up a bed at the pump­ ing station and expects to slay there nights.. The druggists’ bonds of Von W. Fjjrniss with C. A. Hough and Ed. Liebhauser as sureties; C. H. Brown with. J. C. Furniss and O. J. McQuistion as sureties; and H. G. Hale with John Barry and Henry Roe as sureties, were presented and were accepted. The liquor bonds of Albert A. Whiteman and Taylor Walker as principals and T. C. Downing and F. J. Feighner as sureties, and George McWha, senior member of the firm of McWha & Hecox, with Homer jE. Downing and George W. G ribbin as sureties, were presented and not being accompanied by a statement of the financial responsibilities of the bonds­ men were- laid on the table and a resolution asking the bondsmen to furnish the council with the necessary statement was passed. The tramp nuisance was taken up and freely discussed. It was the opinion of the members of the council that the “hobo” fraternity is getting too familiar with the “board” the village has been furnishing and it was proposed to put them on fare of bread and waler as a means of turning their steps in other directions. The board of supervisors are conVrnplating some move to abate the nuisance and Supervisor Smith asked that the village council help them in the move. The bread and water fare will no doubt have the effect ot keeping them away, as a good healthy tramp likes grub and will surely go where he is fed the best. According to the village marshal there has been upwards of two hundred fed here during the past winter. The finances of the village demanded liquidation, hence the president and clerk were instructed *o negotiate a loan of five hundred dollars to tide affairs over.until tax time. Following are the committees ap­ pointed by the president, which were confirmed by the council:' Finance—"Zuschnitt, Wotring and Bullis. Sidewalk and sewer—Keyes, Bullis, Murray. Street—Keyes, Murray, Shilling. Water and Light—Shilling, Keyes, Wotring. Fire, Park and Information—Zusch­ nitt, Wotring, Bullis. Park commissioner—C. M. Putnam. Marshall—Chas. H. Ackett. Health officer—Dr. E. T. Morris. Member cemetery board—James Fleming. . Board of review—W. A. Smith and L. J. Wilson. President pro-tem—H. C. Zuschnitt. Bills to the amount of nearly three hundred dollars were presented allowed, and the council adjourned to meet next Monday .night to take further action on the liquor bonds. GIRL DISAPPEARS.

We had adopted the same tactics, firing and dodging to avoid the target made by the flash of our pistols, and watching and listen tag after the roar of the explosions. It was a very pretty game, but not destined to last long. He was slowly retreating toward the end of the pass­ age where there was. I remembered, a dead wall.

When I finally, drew the covers over mo It was to lie -and speculate upon the events of the night In con­ nection with the history of the few weeks I had spent nt Glenarm. Larry had suggested In New Yorit that Pick­ ering was playing some deep game, and I, myself, coaid not’accept Pick­ ering’s statement that my grandfath­ er’s large fortune had prayed to be a myth. It Pickering had not stolen or dlssipated.lt, where was It concealed? Morgan was undoubtedly, looking for something of value or he would not risk bls life In the business; and it was quite possible that he was em­ ployed by Pickering to search for hid­ den property. This idea took strong hold of me, the more readily, I fear, since 1 had alwaye been axlous to see evil in Pickering. There was, to be sure, the unknown alternative belr, but neither she nor Sister Theresa was. I Imagined, a person capable, of hiring an assassin to kill me. On reflection I dismissed the idea of appealing to the county authorities, and I never regretted that resolution. The seat of-Wabana county was 20 miles away, the processes of law were unfamiliar, and I wished to avoid pub­ licity. Morgan might, of course, have been easily disposed of by an appeal to the Arimandale constable, but now that I suspected Pickering of treach­ ery the caretaker’s Importance dwin­ dled. I had wanted all my life for a chance at Arthur Pickering, and In this affair I hoped to draw him Into the open and settle with him. • I slept presently but woke at my usual hour, and after a tub felt ready for * another day. Bates served me, as usual, a breakfast that gave a fair aspect to the morning. I was alert for any sign of perturbation In him; but I had already decided that I might as well look for emotion In a ■tone wall as in this placid, colorless serving man. 1 had no reason to sus­ pect him of complicity In the night's affair, but I had no faith In him. and merely waited until he should show his hand. . By my plate next morning I found this note, written In a clear, bold, woman's hand: . "The Sisters of St Agatha trust that the Intrusion upon his grounds by Miss Armstrong, one of their stu­ dents, has caused Mr. Glenarm no an­ noyance. The Sisters beg that this infraction of their discipline will be overlooked, and they assurp Mr. Glen-­ arm that It will not recur.” An unnecessary apology! „ The.note paper was of the best quality. At the head of the page “St Agatha's, Annandale" was embossed in purple. One of the sisters I had seen’ beyond the wail undoubtedly wrote it—possi­ bly Sister Thereaa herself. A -clever woman, that! Thoroughly capable of plucking money from guileless old gentlemen! Poor Olivia! born for freedom, but. doomed to a pent-up ex­ istence with a lot of nuns! I resolved to send her a box of candy sometime just to annoy her guardians. Then my own affairs claimed attention. “Bates," I asked, "do you know what Mr. Glenarm did with the plans for this house?" He started slightly. I should not have noticed it it I had not been so keen for his answer. “No, sir. I can’t put my hand upon them, sir." “That's all very well, Bates, but you didn’t answer my question. Do you know where they are? I’ll put my hand on them if you will kindly tell me where they're kept" "I foar very much, Mr. Glenarm. that they have been destroyed. I tried to find them before you came, to tell you the whole truth, sir; but they must have been put out of the way." "That's very Interesting. Bates. Will you kindly toll me whom you suspect of destroying them? The toast again, please." His hand shook as he passed the plate. ”1 hardly like to say, sir, when it’s only a suspicion." “Of course I shouldn’t ask you to incriminate yourself, but I’ll have to insist on my question. It may have occurred to you.

They will set another transformer, making tliree in all, and make other necessary improvements to better care for their fast increasing business here. You read a great deal in the funny papers about a girl’s father going down stairs and kicking a young man out who has remained with his daughter too long to suit Itiin,. but no such thing ever happened. All a father does under such circumstances is to grumble to his wife. James B. Mix and Mrs. Emily "Welch, both well-known Nashville people were married at Rattle Creek last Saturday,/April 13, by Rev. Clarence E. Hoag of the Methodist church, of that city. Their many friends here are congratulating them. They will live near Nashville. ■Some wise guy rises up and says that thflseasons are changing, and we believe the majority of the people around here will agree with him, as the past week we have had pepper, rain, sleet, salt, snow, slush, vinegar, mud, ice, nutmeg, hail, frost and occasionally a tit of sunshine. The saloon bonds presented at the council meeting last Monday night developes the fact that Taylor Walker has purchased an interest in the saloon of Albert A. Whiteman. Mr. Walker has been in the saloon business in Nashville for a good many years and should-' know the business thoroughly. The annual convention of the Barry county W.C.T.U. will be held at Del­ ton May 2 and 3. Mrs. E. L. Calkins, state president, will be in attendance and give an address the first evening. A gold medal contest will be the at­ traction for the second evening. Let each union send a full delegation, and send dues at once to county treasurer.

Ian Maclaren says: “Don’t eat too much if you want healthy children.” What has this got to do with bache­ lor*? GOOD SEED CORN. Some of the Important Points Which It May Be Known. by Some of the more Important ob­ servations to be made In the selection of seeds are: Yield, quality, uniform­ ity. hardiness, time of ripening, free­ dom from 'attacks of smut and rust, and. in the case of small grain, the stiffness of tbe straw. Tbe corn crop requires, perhaps, as great care in the selection as any other, and merits special attention, says the Prairie Farmer- The rapid Improvement that has been -made in this crop, combined with- the readi­ ness with which the different varieties cross and mix, renders it extremely subject to variation. Constant care Is necessary in order to establish the desirable qualities that are brought out In these variations and to more thoroughly eradicate those not desir­ able. Some of the points to be observed In the selection of seed corn are: ■ 1. The size and shape of ear: ear should approach as nearly as may be a uniform diameter from end to end. 2. Size and quality of cob, a me­ dium sized cob being much better than a large, spongy one. 3. Depth of grain. 4. Shape of grain: grains should carry their wedge shape unn’urmiy to the end, so that the ear may present as nearly as possible a solid surface. 5. Covering of cob; cob should'be as completely and evenly covered ns possible at -both ends. 6. Hardness of grain, too hard and flinty a grain not being readily mas­ ticated and digested. A hard grain, also, is more liable to be a shallow one. 7. Grains of even, uniform size and similar shape, to make possible uni­ formity of planting. S. Color of grain, purity 'of color Indicating purity of the corn. POINTS WORTH NOTING. For late lettuce sow in partial shade. ■ Spinach for early spring “greens" should be sown about the M)th ot this month. . It Is the wasp, and not^he honey bee, that punctures the grape. The bees profit from the work of the wasp. Close by the side of the road is the best place for the garden, for then you will have pride In keeping it clean. Keep a supply of early potatoes dug and at tho house, so that your wife can get at them;- don’t let her dig them. Keep the tomato plants off the ground. Nothing rots the fruit quick­ er or more surely than falling to the earth. Weeds will keep right on growing, whether anything else In the garden does or not. Don’t let a single one go to seed, though. How is the crop of boys and girls at your bouse this year? Good? Glad of it! No matter whether the corn aud wheat and all things, go wrong, if the harvest of young folk* is all Sort Out the Pigs. If you have a lot of young pigs of different ages, separate them into lot* and feed them separately. Don’t al­ low the yodng fellows to fight the larger ones for their meals. Even a runt pig may be made to grow rapid­ ly if given special attention. Feed for Profit. No doubt the surplus stock. If well fed, will bring more profit than when poorly fed.

A Plair, Practical Talk on ths Seleno* of Feeding. “It I* not what is eaten., but what Is digested, that nourishes,” la an ax­ iom ot the medical doctor, ind thia applies with equal force to the animals of the farm, although many breeders and rearers of stock display a much greater Interest in “what to feed” than In the question of “how to feed." One authority says that “It 4s - not* suffi­ cient 'to know, that certain substances possess great nutriment, and that othare are practically useless, but ft must be known what foodn are most suited to the varying additions of the or­ ganism. in what form these should be administered, and to ascertain how the best feeding can be obtained In the most economical manner.” The ar­ rangement of the digestive apparatus of animals has an important hearing on tbelr system of feeding, and what is right and proper for one is quite unsuited to the other. The small and single stomach of the horse, its capacious bowels, and the absence of the gall bladder, are In marked distinction to the enormous stomach of the ox. the small intes­ tines and the presence of a gall blad­ der, and thus the feeding of cattle and sheep differs much from the feeding of pigs’ from either. . The object of food is to build up and repair the tissues and maintain a re­ serve for the body requirements, says the Montreal Herald, but food os re­ ceived is quite useless for the purpose of the body., and before it dan be uti­ lized it must form part of and parcel ot the animal, either in the solid or liquid tissues. The digestibility of a food is It*, power of undergoing ab­ sorption Into the body for the purpose of nutrition, and In every food, given to animals there is a distinct diges­ tion of the proteld. fat and carbohy­ drate In it. The amount of these which are absorbed under favorable conditions Is fairly definite, but under unfavorable conditions, such as the food being “badly cured,” or there be­ ing too much carbohydrate present, or too much or too little proteld in the diet, the amount absorbed departs from the normal, and less is extracted or less stored up than would have been the case had conditions been favora­ ble. DOOR FOR HOG HOUSE. One That the Hogs Can Open Them­ selves and Will Keep Out Draughts. A A’.VOTINGjMACtflNE. reprtjwntaiivi- of the Voting Machine Company of Hudson will be in the village next Monday, April 22. with an Abbott voting inaciiine. It will he set up-in the room formerly occupied by Frank McDerby as -a shoe store and anyone interested is invited to go and see it operated, and have _iu points explained. In view of the faqt that these machines are no more an uncertainty in their value 1 desire that everyone who is interested in the matter will go and see tbe machine work. The fact of the matter is, that a voting machine will pay for itself in a short time and there is no question but what it would, be a good thing for the town*hip and village to own one. The saying in their use would mean more than half the expense of every election. Then if the Morgan voting precinct could be moved to Nashville, as many think it should be, there would be another great saving in election expenses. I desire an expression on this- matter from the voters of the township and would* be pleased to have anyone who is interested state his opinion. . E. V’ Smith, supervisor. ASSYRIA FARMERS’ CLUB.

The bull can be kept at a distance with a staff, and that is therefore the safest way to lead him. Feeding and milking the cows regu­ larly are very: Important No work in the dairy can be more important. The milk cow’s mission, being to convert food Into milk, not Into • fat and beef. It goes without saying that she should not be fat The cow must have health, vigor, constitution and disposition before she is milked the first time. What she really is will be determined before she drops her first calf. Whether one has a herd or only one cow, he should have something grow­ ing during the cool portion of the year that will furnish succulence. And it will save buying mill feeds. If the cow Is not healthy—has gargot or Inflammation of the udder, or any other sickness that is noticeable —her milk should be drawn into a pail not generally used in milking and fed to the pigs, if used at all. Neither sorghum cane nor common corn that was green when the frost hit them should be fed to cows and horses. It Is not certain whether frosted pea vines contain this “forage poison" or not, but it would be best to go slow is this line. Coarse Fodder for Sheep.

The annual notification was received by Auditor General Bradley recently. I.t Is not surprising that the MichiganLake Superior Power company ap elects to pay Its taxes under the spe­ cial law, since It provides a tax of but one per cent. pn. the capita! stock of the company. The company has capital of 1500,000 and Its tax under the special law amounts to >5,000 per year. The company.- in question owns the great water power canal and power house at the Soo. The property of the. company is1 worth at least >2,000,000 or 13.000.000. and should it pay taxes locally on its fair valuation it would be called upon' to pay |35,OOO or 140,000 In taxes annu­ ally. Last year an attempt was made to have the law under which this great corporation pays taxes declared unconstitutional, but the supreme court sustained the. measure. There is now a bill before the state legisla­ ture to repeal the law of 1899. ■ " » Railroads and the New Fare Bill. When Gov. Warner affixes his sig­ nature to the document, the new schedule of passenger fares. on the railroads In Michigan will be ready to go into effect 90 days after tbe ad­ journment of the present session. The bouse passed the senate bill without amendment by a vote of 92 to 1. The one man voting tn tbe negative was Representative David A. L'Esperance, of Detroit. The i ew law will provide a rate of two cents per mile on all roads earning over >1,200 'a mile in the lower peninsula. For the upper peninsula a flat rate of three cents is provided, with the exception that four cents can be charged for' distances under ten miles. With the matter dis­ posed of so far as the legislature is concerned, a far more important phase of the question is now present­ ed. and that Is: What will the atti­ tude of the railroads be? -Will they accept the will of the legislature, or will they insist on securing a judicial adjudication as to whether the rates fixed are reasonable? Each railroad will have to determine this separately, and it will not be surprising if at least two of the roads, the Pere Mar­ quette and the Ann Arbor, take the matter into court. From the quiet talk heard among the railroad offi­ cials it may be fairly assumed that they are going to fight to a finish and will not be content until the mat­ ter has been finally passed upon by the United States supreme court Discuss Constitutional Convention. The committee on constitutional convention, of which Representative Sam Kelley, of Benton Harbor, is chairman, had its first session relative to the constitutional convention. There are half a dozen bills bearing on the make-up of the convention, which run from 64 to 132 delegates. While no formal expression was had the mem­ bers of the committee expressed the view that it would not be necessary to provide for a preliminary commis­ sion to organize "that constitutional convention, but that the easiest way would be for the legislature to desig­ nate the number of delgates and pro­ scribe the method of election, leaving the convention to organize v^tself. There is a good deal of difference as to the number of delegates that should be provided for. Representa­ tive McCarthy took tbe view that every county in the state should have at least one delegate in order that the sentiments of every section of the state may be more closely reflect­ ed. He pointed out that several coun­ ties are now included in some of the representative districts. There are 83 counties In the state and if his idea carries without disturbing the present representation of counties which have more than one representative it would give the convention 118 delegates. The committee will meet again on call of the chairman. House Passes Lord Bank Bill. The house passed several general bills, including Representative’ Lord’s lowering the capitalization required for incorporating state banks In small cities, giving boarding house keepers the same protection as hotelkeepers, requiring fire escapes on apartment houses and public buildings when >*dered by the state labor department House Favors Sanitarium. The house committee on the state tuberculosis sanitarium at Howell passed favorably on the appropriation asked for- the next two years, >198,000, and it now goes to the ways and means committee. Sues to Rscover Penalty. Attorney General Bird has com­ menced Ault against the Quaker Oats company to force the collection of a penalty of 81,000 per month for the failure of the company to file its arti­ cles of incorporation at Lansing as a precedent to doing business In the state. It Is claimed that the company transacted business in the state six months before it saw fit to file its articles of Incorporation. The Quaker Oats company now has headquarters at Battle Creek, but until recently It was a foreign corporation. Wvuid Nullify All Work. Senator Edinboro ugh introduced _ a bill to wipe out the present medical registration board and substitute a medical council to consist of the mem­ bers of the state board of education, the superintendent at public instruc­ tion an/ the presidents of three state boards ot ■ medical examiners. The bill would nullify all the work, that has been accomplished' in the last few years for the protection, of the public in the practice of medicine. The L'Esperance medical bill, which amends the present law so as to strengthen it. is still pending before the house committee and efforts are being made by various medical fac­ tors to work up opposition to IL Sen­ ator Mackay introduced a bill revamp­ ing the law regulating the practice of medicine. Bill Affects Game Warden. Representative L. L. Kelley Intro­ duced the bill reorganizing the game and fish warden's department by mak­ ing that official fire warden also. It was originally. Intended to include the matter of timber and land trespassing In bis department, but the land com­ missioner gave notice that be would fight if any attempt was made to. take this plum away from him. The ori­ ginal bill also provided for an appro­ priation of >100,000, but this was cut out, as there Is a plan on to fix up a "Schedule of shooting and fishing li­ censes with the idea of trying to make the department self-supporting. A bill is now on the general order In the senate increasing the salary of the game warden to >3,000 a year. Trouble on Lines of the Michigan United Railways Ended—Union Not to Be Recognized by Company. Kalamazoo.—Striking employes of the Michigan United railways came to an agreement with the company. Tbe men returned to w;ork. The men were granted an Increase In wagea. effective May 1. The union will not be recognized by the com­ pany. but tbe men may maintain an organization If they so desire. The Kalamazoo & Battle Creek city lines and the Interurban between Kalama­ zoo and Jackson are affected. VOTE BONUS FOR INDUSTRY. Proposition to Bond Wayne Village Decided at Election. Wayne.—The proposition to bond tbe village fon >5,000 for public Im­ provements was carried. at a special election by a vote of 126 to 13. The real reason in voting thp money is to purchase a site and erect build­ ings for the Seestedt Bros.’ milk can and . bathtub factory, which will re­ move here from Romulus. The build­ ing will remain the village property for five years, but wlH then become Seestedt Bros.’ property provided they live up to tbolr agreement Sending Insane to Michigan.

City of Mexico, Aprif 16.—Word from the center of the great destruc­ tion of the earthquake Sunday night was first giv«n to this capital after repeated trials made during Sunday night and Monday morning to estab­ lish communication with the strick­ en districts. As yet wires to the sec­ tion are working badly and no exact estimate of the number of the dead has been received. It is believed, however, that the total death list will be large. There were no deaths In Mexico City and beyond damaged plaster and cracked and fallen walls, the prop­ erty loss will be insignificant. Owing to tbe long duration of the shock this is considered most remarkable and is only accounted for by the peculiar swell-like motion of the earthquake, which was regular and from east to OLDEN ENGLISH ALE The tinest beverage and tonic.

Secretary Root, also .took occasion In his speech to point ont tbe propo­ sitions which the United States gov­ ernment will have to make at the coming, conference at The Hague. He warned his hearers not to expect too much at this second conference. The president, In, a letter to the congress, expressed the hope that the coming Conference might result In the adop­ tion of . an International arbitration treaty.

Mr. Carnegie, in an address to the congress, paid a tribute to President Roosevelt and expressed the wish that Mr. Roosevelt might be the peace­ maker of the future. He declared, however, that Emperor William Is the man. among all men, who holds' the peace of the nations in his power. In this connection Mr. Carnegie said It ■was unjust to speak of the emperor as a menace to the peace of Europe, adding that In 20 years upon the throne the German ruler bad spilt no blood, nor caused an international . At the afternoon session the speak­ ers were Secretary Root. Gov. Charles E. Hughes of New York, Mayor George B. McClellan ot New York city, and Mr. Carnegie.

Urges Practical Efforts. President Roosevelt in his letter to the congress urged that its efforts be devoted to the practical side of the question it had undertaken to dis­ cuss. "An Impassioned oration about peace.” he declared, "which includes an impassioned demand for something which the man who makes the de­ mand cither knows or ought to know cannot, as a mutter of fact, be done, represents not gain, but loss, for the cause of peace; for even the noblest cause Is marred by advocacy which is either insincere or foolish." The president closed by stating that he hoped to see at the coming confer­ ence at The Hague a general arbitra­ tion treaty among the nations adopt­ ed and The Hague court greatly In­ creased In power and permanency, the judges In particular being made permanent and given adequate sal­ aries. Warnings by Mr. Root. Secretary RooL speaking partly in behalf ot the president, dwelt upon the hope that The Hagde conference would see another long step toward the attainment of International arbi­ tration. He added a few words of warning concerning anticipations of what this second peace conference is to do. and told his hearers not to ex­ pect too much from It. He declared that the government of the United States has been of the opinion that the possibility of an agreement as to the limitation of armed forces by land and sea and -of war budgets ought to be further con­ sidered and discussed at the coming Hag-.ke conference.

Washington, April 15. — President Roosevelt has addressed "to the chil­ dren of the United States” a message on the significance of Arbor day, which is celebrated. in the month of April in many of the states. He says to them it is well that they should celebrate the day thoughtfully and’ that when they help to preserve our forests or to plant new ones they are acting the part of good citizens. The message* is as follows: "To the school children of the Unit­ ed States: Arbor day (which means simply "tree day”) is now observed in every state In the union — and mainly in tbe schools. At various times from January* to December, but chiefly in this month of April, you give a day or part of a day to special exercises, and perhaps to actual tree planting, in recognition of the impor­ tance of trees to us as a nation, and of what they yield In adornment, com­ fort and useful products to the com­ muni ties In which you live. Nation Will Need Trees. "It is well that you should cele­ brate your Arbor day thoughtfully, for within your lifetime the nation’s need of trees will become serious. We of an older generation can get along with what we have, though with growing hardship; but in ypur full manhood and womanhood you will want what nature once so bountifully supplied and may so thoughtlessly destroyed; and because of that want you will reproach us, not for what we have used, but for what we have wasted. "For the nation, as for the man or woman and the boy or girl, the road to success is the right use of what we have .and the improvement of pres­ ent opportunity. If you neglect .to prepare yourselves now for the duties and responsibilities which will fall upon you later, if you do not learn the things which you will need to knowwhen your schooldays are over, you will suffer the consequences. So any nation which in its youth lives only for the day, reaps without sowing, and consumes without husbanding, must expect the penalty of the prodigal, whose tabor could with difficulty find him the bare means of life.

Chicago, April 16.—The .Standard OH company has been found guilty of accepting rebates from railroads on its shipments from Whiting, Ind., tn 1903, by a jury which returned its verdict in Judge Landis’ court. Law­ yers for the defeated corporation are busy perfecting plans for n legal bat­ tle that Is to. be ended only by the verdict of.the United States supreme court. • Minimum fines amounting to $1,463,­ 000 and a maximum of $29,260,000 can be imposed by Judge Landis, and the struggle within a tew days will be for a new ’ trial, and in case of an adverse ruling - on this point at­ tempts will be made to reduce the fine. The point made by Attorneys John S. MHler. Moritz Rosenthal and Vir­ gil P. Kline for the defense Is that in accepting' the secret rebate on its shipments of 1,463 cars the com­ pany committed only one violation, and that it can be fined only $20,000, the maximum for single offenses against the Elkins taw. The gov­ ernment will contend that each of the 1.463 shipments constitute a vio­ lation, and that the payment of a $20.­ 000 fine would not be commensurate with the offense, which netted the Standard a saving of $223,000 on the shipments. This Is the first time the Standard Oil company has been convicted on the charge of accepting rebates and congratulations have been, pouring' in on District Attorney Edwin W. Sims for his victory, which came at the efid of five months' hard work preceding the trial, which has tasted 36 days. Assistant District Attorneys Wilker­ son and Parkin, who have worked in and out of court with Mr. Sims, are sharing the Tribute to their leader. The charges involving shipments from Whiting. Ind., to East St. Louis. 111., on which the legal rate was 18 cents, the Standard rate being' six cents, and shipments to St. Louis at 17’ ’3 cents, while the legal rate was 19l.i cents. Even more Indictments are pending against the corporation. STEAMER PAH LOW IS WRECKED. On Rocks Near Sturgeon Bay, Consort in Danger. and Sturgeon Bay, Wis., April 16.—The steamer Louis Pahlow ran on the rocks at Clay Banks, six miles south of here, during a blinding snowstorm Monday afternoon, and is fast pound­ ing to pieces. Her consort, the Delta, managed to anchor near the wrecked steamer and may be saved. The crews have been taken off by the life savers of this port and are safe. The Pahlow ana the Delta belong to the fleet of the Hines Lumber com­ pany of Chicago, and were north­ bound light They left Chicago Sun­ day, and Monday encountered a fierce snowstorm from the southeast.

"Thi|t is my opinion of you.—that you’re a rather unexpected person. But thank you, very much.” She showed no disposition to pro­ long the interview,-but hurried toward analytical turn of mind.

And I was coming to church Sunday to hear you play and to pray fqr snow, so you’d come over often to chase rabbits!" This, I thought, softened her heart. At any'rate her tone changed.

The house judiciary committee took the first steps towards furthering tbe Juvenile court proposition by deciding to report out a measure establishing such courts in every county in the state and in all cities under 20,000 population. The measure provides that the judge of probate shall preside over the juvenile - court, sessions of which shall be .held at convenient times. In counties having cities of over 20,000 population the judge of probate Is given jurisdiction of juven­ ile case outside of these cities but within the county. No provision is made in the bill for municipal juvenile courts In the larger cities, but with the principle once established it will be an easy matter for any city desir­ ing such a court to secure an enabling act. Representative Standart has such a bill In for Detroit. ($1.90 for the round trip) qokkly. 0/ . s WLNGLR; Pledge for Drunkards. Representative 8. H. Kelley, of Ben­ ton Harbor, Introduced a bill provid­ ing for the "punishment" of prisoners brought into criminal courts On the charge of drunkenness. It provides that on the discretion of the court sentence .may . be suspended on the prisoner, upon condition tiu^t he signs a pledge to abstain from Intoxicants for a period of not more than a yean If he breaks the pledge the cdurt then may inflict tbe fine or imprisonment. Police Justice Sellers expresses him­ self as-favorable to the bill Introduced in the legislature by Representative Kelley, of Benton Harbor, providing for the punishment of prisoners brought up for drunkenness by mak­ ing them sign a pledge. Under this bill, in lieu of fine or imprisonment, if the court sees fit, the prisoner may sign a pledge for a period of not more than a year. The fine or imprisonment shall hangover his head a& a club to make him keep his pledge' to be a better and soberer citizen. Justice Sellers declares himself as favorable to anything that shall make better citizenship and is of the opinion that such a measure will make toward lessening -the number of drunks that appear weekly in the'police court Wiil Rash the Lord Bill. The. decision of Judge Knappen, of Grand Rapids, in enjoining the Calu­ met & Hecla from voting its stock and proxies in the Osceola Consoli­ dated Mining company, will probably bring forward for quick passage the Lord bill, repealing the Galbraith stock purchase act of 1905. The de­ cision of Judge Knappen in a sense disposes of the danger in' the Gal­ braith law by practically nullifying it. That is. Judge Knappen's decision de­ clares the Sherman law, as a national law, prevails over -any “trust-making" possibilities in the Galbraith law. BtfS a formal enactment, repealing the Gal­ braith law and prohibiting all stock purchases of like nature by corpora­ tions. is demanded, that nothing in Michigan legislation may seem to contravene tho law of the land. Judge Knappen's decision disposes finally, it is believed here, of any "traction trust" operations in Michigan, and the Cady bill legalizing electric combines is impossible under this decision. Of course, all .this depends on whether Judge Knappen is uphold by the Unit­ ed States court of appeals. Tbe legis­ lature will adjourn before that, and the plan is therefore to push the Lord bill. Would Have Convicts Crush Stone. State Highway Commissioner Earle's plan io have a penitentiary built in the Lake Superior trap rock district, where convict? can be em­ ployed in crushing stone for building good roads throughout the state, was started on its way. A bill carrying an appropriation of >200.000 was in­ troduced in the house by Representa­ tive Stannard and Senator Smith in the senate. It is proposed to, build a penitentiary at Bete Grise, .some 2d miles from Hancock, where 200 acres of land has been offered the state free, erect a quarry, rock crushing ma­ chinery and dock facilities, and em­ ploy about 100 of the vicious convicts from the other prisons on the con­ tract system The plan is to sell the crushed rock to municipalities for 50 cents per ton and the claim is that the institution will be self-supporting. It will be urged as preferable to a prison binder twine plant.

Downing are in the held buying, and prices range from 22 to 27 cents. The qual­ ity of the wool this year is said to be somewhat below the average, which affects the price somewhat, there being comparatively few fancy fleeces. A ball game between a nine com­ posed of employees of the Lentz tabla company and the high school team entertained a fair-sized crowd at the ball park last • Saturday afternoon. The score ended something like 26 to 6 in favor of the school team. Walter Scheldt twirled for the high school team and Frknk Davis for the factory team. * ■ “Charlotte, the Beautiful,” is the title of a handsome book just issued by B. J. Lowrey of Howard City. It contains a full and graphic description of the “Prairie City,” its business Elaces, manufacturing plants, public nil dings, homes ahd people, and is profusely illustrated with splendid half-tones. The book throughout is a work of art ahd is a credit to the city and to its promoter. Lee Shields and Loton White were arrested Tuesday morning by officers Appelman . and Downing, and tatfen before Justice Kidder on warrants charging them with drunkenness, the cb£Fge being for second offense under tlfe disorderly act. It is claimed that boU^were intoxicated Saturday night. Their hearing is set for Kriday morn­ ing. Attorney F. A. Dean of Char­ lotte has been engaged to defend them. • The new ground purchased for the cemetery has been graded and is be­ ing platted into lots. Fjfty Carolina popples have been set out on the east side to hide the view of the swamp and the posts have been set for the fence on the west side. This will make an ample addition to the cemetery and now if the council will only order the water main extended to the cemetery Nashville will be able to boast of as pretty a cemetery as any town in the state. There is a great demand for laborers of all kinds in Nashville just now and any man who is willing to work can And all he wants to Ao at good wages. There never was a time when there was such a demand for men and the prospects are good for an indefinite time as there seems to be lots of work in sight. Almost anyone-who can drive a nail.can command carpenter's wages.

The ball game between the Hastings high school team and the local high school team at the Nashville base ball park last Friday afternoon was a very pretty exhibition of the national game. The hoodoo that is always working when Nashville has a bail game was there and did full duty, 'rhe score at the finish stood 6 to 3 in favor of the visitors, but the home team put up the >best article of ball in every depart­ ment. The high school team this year comprises some very good ball players and as a team they play very well, but if they ever win games they will have to get rid of the hoodoo. Wm. Woodard, who is superintend­ ing the construction of the water mains which are being laid in the east part of town, experienced the diffi­ culties of a labor strike last week, but it didn't worry “Bill” much as he is accustomed to trouble. About half the men he had digging the trench went on strike, asking for more pay. Bill didn’t have any authority to pay them more and in consequence the strikers staid out and the ditch la being dug without them. The men were paid at the rate of one dollar and a half a day and wanted twenty-five cents more. Mrs. R. Mayo of this village was stricken with paralysis last Sunday, and is in a serious condition. She was visiting at the home of Harry Mayo in Assyria, having gone there Thursday.’ While the family was at breakfast Sunday morning she com­ plained of feeling quaerly, and Mr. and Mrs. Mayo started to help her away from the table, but she told them she could help herself, and started to do so, but found that she was unable to. She was removed to a couch and it was soon seen that she had suffered a stroke of some kind, as she was un­ able to speak intelligibly or to use her right arm or leg at all. Dr. F. F. Shilling was summoned, who did all that w as possible, and her condition is thought to be somewhat improved, and it is hoped that the improvement may continue. Her daughter, Mrs. V. B.

The udder should be large and well rounded out, both In front and rear, with large and evenly placed teats. The milk veins should be prominent, the back level, the eye large and placid, tbe hide inft and pliable and at a yellow col6r. The scale of points drawn up and adopt­ ed by the American Jersey cattle club will prove an excellent and Instructive guide in Judging a Jersey cow. The best way, however, of determin­ ing the merits of any dairy cow, says Fann and Home, is to use a pair of scales to ascertain the’quantity of the milk and a Babcock tester to ascer­ tain its quality, or percentage of fat The ancestry of the cow is also well worthy of some attention: for if she comes of good dairy strains of blood, similar qualities are to be expected in her.

Considerable indignation has been roused among the farmers living in the northeast portion of Hastings township and in west Woodland be­ cause of destructive raids of dogs on sheep. As will bo seen by the follow­ ing account sent in by the Lee School correspondent of the Herald. S. Over­ smith lost a number. of sheep last week: Wm. Flory was attracted by the barking of dogs in the direction of S. Oversmith’s sheep pasture, on the farm adjoining his, last Wednesday afternoon. He went to investigate and found two dogs which were so busy killing sheep they did not heed his attempts to drive them away until he seised a club and hit one a few well directed blows. He then started to in­ form Mr. Oversmith of the damage, and met him on the wav with a shot gun, as he had-heard the dogs, and was on guard as this is the second attack on his sheep in the last few, weeks. They found eight killed and six badly wounded. The damage was estimated at t90. It is thought the dogs came from Coats Grove, and it is reported (they have been killed.— Bastings Herald.

The poor animal licked the hands and face and when he saw that bis caresses were in vain he seated himself at his mas•ter's feet and refused to move. He followed the hearse to the burying ground and seated himself discon­ solately at the side of the grave until the services were over. Then every day he made a trip to the little cemetery and lay with his bead be­ tween his paws beside the grave. A few weeks went by and the dos began to pine.

A public hearing will be given on the bill May 2. The bill reported Is not the bill of the Michigan Manufac­ turers’ association, which was the measure first tentatively introduced by Senator Klnnaue. It is a composite bill in which some of the provisions of the M. M.

Bean th* Judging by th* number of local bill* that are being passed the sentiment of the legislature is strongly in f*vor of home rule in regard to regulating saloon*. The house has passed a bill giving the common council of Portland authority to reduce the number of saloon* from seven to four. The *•»ate liquor committee reported out a much more stringent measure for Ionia at the request of Senator Yeo­ mans. It provides for one saloon to each 600 population, which will re­ duce the number of saloons from 16 to nine. .Yeoman*-insisted on having the bill reported out and as it is a local measure the committee decided to do so, though Attorney George Nichols, of Ionia, protested that a majority of the common council desired to rescind the action taken favoring such a bill. It seems that the original vote stood 3 to 3, which gave the mayor a chance tv cast the deciding vote. There are eight members in . tbe council, and after the matter got to be a burning issue «lx members of the council want­ ed to hold a special meeting to call back the original resolution, but the mayor refused to issue, the necesas-y call. Senator Wetmore also had a lo­ cal liquor bill reported out for Cadil­ lac, which provides that after April 30, 1908, no new saloons shall be estab­ lished except on a basis of one for each 1,000 population.

Engineer and Fireman Killed—All Cars But the Empty Stay on the Trestle. Pittsburg, Pa., April 29.—Two men were killed and 100 passengers had a thrilling escape from a like fate in a wreck on the Wabash railroad Sunday when the engine and one passenger coach of west bound train No. 27 left the tracks half a mile west of the Bridgeville station hear here and plunged into Chartiers creek, 40 feet below. ‘ • The dead are: Marion Boyd, engi­ neer, of Rook Station, and Frank McIsaacs, fireman, of Barberton, O. The train was made up of four pas­ senger coaches. It was crossing a trestle over Chartiers creek when the engine suddenly leaped from the rails and shot to the stream underneath, taking the first coach with iL The fore part of the engine sank several feet Into the mud of the cireek bed. The coach, was smashed to splinters by its terrific Impact with the locomo­ tive. • By what the railroad men regard as little more than mere chance there were no passengers in the front coach. The coupling between it and the sec­ ond coach was wrenched in two when it was torn from the trestle by the engine. .None of those in the three rear coaches know of the accident or realized how close they had come to death until several minutes afterward when the cars, deprived of motive power, slackened their speed and came to a stop. A new schedule went into effect on the road Sunday and to this fact many owe their Ilves. Under the new sched­ ule train No. 27 left this city 45 mln* nteg earlier and over 50 persons missed the train for this reason. On account of the reduced number of passengers all were placed In the three rear coaches. The cause of the accident is thus far a mystery and the railroad officials will give out no statement until an in­ vestigation has been made. Philadelphia, April 30.—Marth Korals. a comely Prussian girl, was shot and instantly killed, here Monday un­ der unusual circumstances, by Franz Endrukat, an enraged lover, who after murdering the girl, sent a bullet Into his own brain, Inflicting a wound 'from which he cannot recover. Endrukat, who was angry because the girl would not marry him, fol­ lowed her to this country from the province of Pomerania in Renish Prussia, where four years ago he at­ tempted to kill her by beating her over the head with a hatchet.. After this attempt he ciit his throat in an effort to end his life, and after lying for four months in a hospital, accord­ ing to the information given to the coroner, he . was sentenced to one year and eight months’ imprisonment Followed Her to America. After the assault In Europe, Miss Korals, who was the daughter of a physician and a school teacher, came to Philadelphia. Endrukat. despite tbe refusal of the girl to marry him in his native country, followed her to Ameri­ ca and to Philadelphia. He went to work at Cramps’ ship yards and boarded in the northern section of the city. Miss Korals secured a place as maid in the home ot August Ram- i stein, in the southern- section of the 1 city. Endrukat met the girl by chance in the street on Easter Sunday and im­ mediately endeavored to renew his at­ tentions. He was repulsed.

Norfolk,7 Va., April 27.—President Roosevelt, the diplomatic, naval and military representative of 37 of the nations of the world, and the gover­ nors of a score of states participated Friday in the opening exercises of the Jamestown Tercentennial exposition. From the firing of a sunrise* salute of 300 guns by the United States army, through the picturesque review of the international fleet of war ves­ sels anchored in Hampton Roads, through the ceremonies of dedication at which the president spoke, and down to a late hour at night, when the chief executive went aboard the naval yacht Sylph to spend ths night In the lower bay, the day was crowded with notable incidents. President Averts a Panic. Not the least impressive of the day’s events was the action of the president In assuming command of the situation In front of the crowded grandstand from which he spoke, when a panic seized the surging throng of specta­ tors. Pressed against the guard ropes by thousands of eager persons In the rear of the gathering, who were forc­ ing their way forward, the safety of life and Hnjb of those who had the more favored positions was endan­ gered. President Roosevelt had just been Introduced by Harry St. George Tuck­ er, the head of theJamestown Exposi­ tion company, when the‘disorder and unrest in the crowd reached its height and .the civil guards in front of the grandstand seemed abdut to be swept from their posts. With the agility of a schoolboy, tbe president jumped upon the table which had 'been placed in the speakers’ balcony and. waving his arms, cried out to the men of Vir­ ginia to live up to their traditions of gallantry and cease the crowding which was threatening the lives of the women and children In • the as­ semblage. Soldiers Quiet the Crowd. Tbe crowd heeded the president’s warning at once, but when he had set­ tled down into his speech, and the words were fairly blown from his mouth by the southeasterly gale which was sweeping the great parade, the immense audience became uneasy again, and those on the outskirts be­ gan to press forward once more. The president was interrupted and mount­ ed officers and men of the United States cavalry were called In to take charge. . They rode up and down along the front of the crowd and gradually opened It up and relieved the pres­ sure. ' The military encamped about the exposition grounds began the day’s ceremonies with the firing of the three-century salute. Soon thereafter from across the waters of Hampton Roads came the boom of ship -cannon, signaling the beginning of the review by the president of the most formid­ able fleet of International battleships and cruisers the world has witnessed tn many years. Review of the Great Fleet. On board the tidy cruiser yacht Mayflower, the president, with a few especially irfvlted guests, was greeted first by a roar of 21 guns from each of the vessels, foreign and American. Then, as he steamed along the lane of the visiting men of war, he was saluted individually and in turn by every battleshin and cruiser at anchor in the roads. Tbe marine picture, viewed from shore by thousands and from tbe decks of excursion and. pleas­ ure craft by almost as many more, was at once imposing and Impressive. When his yacht had anchored in the very midst of the naval vessels, the president received on board the flag and commanding officers ot the foreign fleet and the flag officers of the house squadrons. Booming cannon again greeted the president as he stepped upon the tem­ porary structure which Is eventually to be a magnificent water gate known as Discovery Landing. President Tucker, of the exposition, personally welcomed Mr. Roosevelt, saying simply: "Mr. President, Old Virginia salutes you, sir.” The president returned the saluta­ tion and. with Mrs. Roosevelt, was driven to the grandstand on the par­ ade between two lines of soldiers from the Twenty-third United States infan­ try. Presses the Golden Button. The ceremonies of dedication were brief, the features being the addresses of President Tucker of the exposition and President RoosevelL The latter, at the conclusion of bls address, pressed the gold button, which formal­ ly marked the opening of the commem­ orative enterprise. Then followed an Informal luncheon to the president and 40 other guests in the Auditorium or administration building. Tbe repast ended, the president repaired again to the grandstand, from which he re­ viewed the parade of United States soldiers and sailors. A reception by the president In the Auditorium brought.the day's events at the fair grounds to a close. At night the warships were beauti­ fully illuminated. FOR COUGHS aao COLDS.

Uncle Ned'd stand and pay maroonbacked bills to Dawson, wond'ring when the bln'd fill. Dawson quit at dusk. “Oh. well."

Dickinson. Special Administrator. Last Thursday evening Miss Flora Boston had quite an experience with fire and in fact she has not gotten over her fright yet. She was at her home on the south side and struck a match to light a lamp. A couch was near where she was standing and tho flam from the match Ret fire to the fringe on the couch. It wasn’t but an instant until die whole couch was on fire and had it not been for the fact tlkal her father and brother were there tiie affair might have been more serious. The couch was thrown out doors, where it burned up. Miss Boston received slight burns about the hand. We take pleasure in announcing to the ladies of Nashville and vicinity that we have just received our spring shipment of Irving Drew shoes (formerly known as the Drew-Selby.)

That Nashville is a prosperous town and that the country around Nashville is prosperous is at­ tested by the business done by this bank. In a town the size of Nashville -where a bank’s assets are over 8300,000.00 then you can make up your mind that the community is prosperous: and you can safely' assume also that the bank that holds the trust of the people -to this extent is also prosperous. This bank has grown up with Nashville and as Nashville has prospered it has prospered. In the beginning it took the policy of fairness and has adhered to it through all the years it nas been in business. That is what has won it the confidence it enjoys. The savings department is one of its strong points and is something that should not be overlooked by the wage-earner. 3^- interest is paid on savings deposits and the interest is compoqnded quartjBriy. .v FARMERS & MERCHANTS BANK DIRECTORS OFFICERS G.

EXACT COPY OF WRAPPEB. CASTORIA O®, HOUSE THOUSAND CANDIES By MEREDITH NICHOLSON "The TXnhandale station presented I an appearance of unusual gaiety when we reached the main street of the ' village. There, to be sure, lay the • private car in the siding, and on the platform was a group of 20 or more' girls, with several of the brown-habit­ ed Sisters of St. Agatha. There was ; something a little foreign In the pic- 1 .ture; the girls in their bright colors talking gaily, the Sisters in their som­ ber garb hovering about, suggesting France -or Italy rather than Indiana. We stepped upon the platform. The private car lay on the opposite side of the station, having been switched Into a siding of the east and west road. Pickering was certainly get­ ting on. There is something wholly regal In a private car. Any one may boast a catboat and call It a yacht: but there no known substitution for a private car. A's I lounged across the platform with Stoddard, Pickering came out Into the vestibule of his car. followed by two ladies and an elderly gentleman. They sll descended and began a promenade on the plank walk. Pickering saw me an instant later and hurried up with outstretched hand. •This Is Indeed good fortune! We dropped off here last night rather un­ expectedly to rest <a hot box and should have been picked up by the early express for Chicago; but there was a miscarriage of orders some­ where and we now have to wait for the nine o’clock, and It’s late. If I’d ■known how much behind It was . I should have run out to see you. How are things going?" “As smooth as a whistle! It really isn't so bad when you face IL And the tact is I’m actually at work." That's splendid. The year will go fast enough, never fear. I suppose you pine for a little human society now and then. A man can never strike the right medium in such things. In New York we are all rushed to death. I sometimes feel that I'd like a little rustication myself. I get nervous, and working for corporations is wearing. The old gentleman there is Taylor, (president of the Mid-Western and .Southern. The ladies are his wife and a friend of hers. I'd like to introduce you." He ran his eyes over my cordu­ roys and leggings In amiable accept­ ance of my rusticity. He had not in years addressed me so pleasantly. Stoddard had left me to go to the 'Other end of the platform to speak to •some of the students. I followed Pick­ wring rather reluctantly to where the icotnpanlons of his travels were pacing to and fro in the crisp morning air. Ah soon as Pickering had got me well under way in conversation with Taylor, he excused himself hurriedly aad went off, as I assumed, to bo sure the station agent had received orders for attaching tiie private car to the Chicago express. Taylor proved to be a supercilious person,—I believe they «all him Chilly Billy at the Metropoll-1 tan club.—and our efforts to converse were pathetically unfruitful. The two ladles stood by. making no conceal­ ment of their impatience. Their eyes were upon the girls from SL Agatha’s <m the other platform, whom they ootid see beyond me. I had jumped the conversation from Indiana farm values to the recent disorders in BuiBaria, which interested me more, when Mrs. Taylor, Ignoring me, spoke ab­ ruptly to her sister. "That’s she—the one in the gray coat, talking to the clergyman. She came a moment ago In the carriage." "The one wfth the umbrella? I thought you said—" Mrs. Taylor glanced at her sister warnlngly, and they both looked at me. Then they detached themselves and moved away. There-was some one on the farther platform whom they wished to see, and Taylor, not under­ standing their maneuver—he was real­ ly anxious, I think, not to be left ajone with me—started down the platform after them. I following. Mrs. Taylor and her sister walked to tho end of the platform and looked across, a bis­ cuit toss away, to where Stoddard stood talking to the girl I had already heard described as wearing a’ gray coat and carrying an umbrella. Tho girl In gray crossed, the track quickly and addressed the two women cordially. Taylor's back was'to her and he wag growing eloquent In a mild well-bred way over the dullness of our statesmen in not seeing the advan­ tages that would accrue to the United States In fostering our shipping Indus­ try. His wife, her sister and <ho girl In gray were so near that I could hear plainly what they were saying. They were referring apparently to the girl's refusal of an invitation to accompany them to California. “So you can't go—it’s too bad! We had hoped that when you really saw us on the way you would relenL” Raid Mrs. Taylor. "But there are many reasons; and above all Sister Theresa needs me." It was the voice of Olivia, a little lower, a little more restrained than I had known it; but undeniably it was she. "But think of the rose gardens that are waiting for us out there!" said the other lady. They were showing her the deference that elderly women al­ ways have for pretty girls. “Alas, and again alas!" exclaimed Olivia. "Please don’t make it harder for me than necessary. But I gave my 8remise a year ago to spend these olldays in Cincinnati." She ignored me wholly and after shaking hands with the ladles returned to the other platform. I wondered whether she was overlooking Taylor oa purpose to cut me. Taylor was still at his lecture on the needs of our American merchant ma­ rine when Pickering passed hurriedly, crossed the track and began speaking earnestly to the girl In gray. “The American flag should command the seas. What we need is not more battleships but more freight car­ riers—" Taylor was saying. But I was watching Olivia Gladys Armstrong, tn a long skirt, with her hair caught up under a gray toque that matched her coat perfectly, she was not my Olivia of the tam-o'-shanter, who had pursued the rabbit; nor yet the unsophisticated school girl, who had suffered my idiotic babbie; nor, again. the dreamy rapt organist of the chapel. She was b grown woman with at least 20 summers to her credit, 'and there was about her an air of knowing the world, and of not being at all a person one would make foolish speech­ es to. She spoke to Pickering gravely. Once she smiled dolefully and shook her head, and ! vaguely strove to re­ member where .1 had seen that logk in her eyes before. Her gold beads, which I bad once carried tn my pocket, were clasped .tight about the close col­ lar of her dress: and I waa glad, very glad, that 1 had ever touched anything that belonged to her. Who was Olivia Gladys Armstrong and what was Arthur Pickering's busi­ ness with her? And what was It she had said to me that evening when I had found , her playing on the chapel organ? So much happened that day that I had almost forgotten, aud. in­ deed, I had tried to forget that I made a fool of myself for the edification of an amusing little school girt "Then you prefer to ignore the first time 1 ever saw you.” she bad said; but if I had thought of it at all it had been with righteous self-contempL Or, I may have flattered my vanity wfth the reflection that she find eyed me—her hero, perhaps—with wistful admira­ tion across the wall. MeanwhIJe the Chicago express roared into Annandale and the private car was attached. Taylor watched the trainmen with, the cool interest of a man for whom the proceeding had no novelty, while he continued to di­ late upon the nation’s commercial op­ portunities. I turned perforce, and walked with him back toward the sta­ tion, where Mrs. Taylor and her sister were talking to the conductor. Pickering came running across the ‘platform with several telegrams In his hand. "I'm awfully sorry. Glenann. that our stop’s so short,"—and Pickering's face wore a worried look as he ad­ dressed me, his eyes on the conductor. • “How far do you go?" I asked. "California. We have large interests out there and I have to attend some stockholders' meetings In Colorado in January." . "Ab, you business men! You busi­ ness men!" 1 said reproachfully. I wished to call him a blackguard then and there, and It was on my tongue to do Ko, but 1 concluded that' to wait until he had shown his band fully was the better game. The ladles entered the car and I ■hook bands with Taylor, who threat­ ened to send me his pamphlet on The Needs of American Shipping when he got back to New York. 'It's too bad she wouldn’t go with us. Poor girl! this must be a dreary hole for her," he said to Pickering, who helped him upon the platform of the car with what seemed to be un­ necessary precipitation. "You little know us," I declared, for Pickering's benefit • "Life in Annan­ dale is nothing if not exciting. The people hero are Indifferent marksmen or tbere’d be murders galore." "Mr. Glenann Is a good deal of a wag." explained Pickering, hastily swinging hlnrself aboard as the train started. "Yes! It's my humor that keeps me alive," I responded, and. taking off my hat I saluted Arthur Pickering with my broadest salaam. CHAPTER XV. I Make an Engagement. Tho south bound train was now duo in ten minutes. A few students bad boarded the Chicago train, but a greater number still waited on the farther platform. The girl in gray was surrounded by half a dozen stu­ dents. all talking animatedly. As I walked toward them I could not jus­ tify my stupidity In mistaking a school girl of 15 or 16 for a grown woman; but It was the tam-o'-shanter, the short skirt, the youthful joy In the outdoor world that had disguised her as effectually as Rosalind to tho eyes of Orlando. She was probably a teacher—quite likely the teacher of music, I argued, who had amused her­ self at my expense. It had seemed tho easiest thing In tho world to approach her with., an apology or a farewell, but those few Inches added to her skirt and that pretty gray toque substituted for the tam-o-shanter set up. a barrier that did net yield at all as I drew nearer. At the last moment, as 1 crossed tho track and stepped upon the other plat­ form, it occurred to mo that while I might have some claim upon the at­ tention of Olivia Gladys Armstrong, a wayward school girl of athletic tastes, I had none whatever upon a person whom It was proper to address as Miss Armstrong-—who was, I felt sure, quite capable of snubbing me if snub­ bing fell In with her mood. She glanced toward me and bowed Instantly, and her young companions withdrew to a conservative distance. I will say this for the students at SL Agatha's, Annandale: Their manners are beyond criticism, and an affable discretion is one of their most admira­ ble traits. "I didn't know they ever grow up so fast—In a day and a night!” I was glad I remembered the num­ ber of beads In her chain; the item seemed .at once to become Important "It's tho air. I suppose. It's praised by excell^it eritics," she laughed. "But you. are going to an ampler ether, a dl’^ner air.

There‘s were a thousand things I wished to say to her; there were countless questions I wished to ask; but her calmness and poise were disconcerting. Her eyes met mine easily; their axure depths puzzled me. She was almost, but not quite, some one I had seen before, and It was not my woodland Olivia. H«r eyes, the sofe curve of her cheek, the light In her hair—but the memory! of another time, another place, anothay girl, lured only to baffle me. \ She laughed—a little murmuring laugh. “I’ll never tell If you won't," she ■aid.

"I want you to come back,” I said boldly, for the train was very near and I felt that the eyes of the Sisters were upon us. “You can not go away where I shall not find you!" I did not know who this girl was, her home, or her relation to the school, but I knew that her life and mine had touched strangely; that her eyes were blue, and that her voice had called to me twice through the dark, fn mockery once, and in warning an­ other time, and that the sense jot hav­ ing seen her before, of having looked into her eyes haunted me.

Wireworms are 'slender worms of yellowish-white color and very hard bodies. They are the young (larvae) of dick-beetles, or snapping bugs, socalled from the fact that when placed upon their backs they will suddenly bend thb body and, with a sharp click­ ing sound, throw themselves a consid­ erable distance into the air. Wire­ worms are among the'most trouble­ some of crop pesta, and as they live underground it is difficult to combat them. At the New York, Cornell, Agricul­ tural Experiment station, exhaustive experiments covering a period of three years were made for the purpose of testing .remedial measures. The state­ ments here made are based largely upon the results of those experiments. Many methods that bad previously been recommended for the destruction of these pests were found to be in­ efficient. To cite but one example: It was found: that the wireworms were still alive in soil to which salt enough had been applied to kill the vegeta­ tion. One method was especially approved —fall plowing. The explanation of the beneficial results that follow fall plow­ ing is believed to be found In the fol­ lowing facts: Wireworms live for at least three years In the worm or larval state. When the worms are full grown they change to soft white pupae dur­ ing July. The pupal stage lasts only about three weeks, the Insect assum­ ing the adult forfn in August. But. strange to say. although the adult state Is reached at this time, the in­ sect remains In the cell in the ground till the following April or May. nearly a year. This period of quiescence Is apparently necessary to the life of the beetle, for in every case where the soil was disturbed after the Insects had transformed, the beetles perished. By fall plowing, t lys'the Farm Jour­ nal, we can destroy the beetles in the soil and thus prevent their depositing eggs the. following season. After plow­ ing (at least six Inches deep), the soil should be well pulverized and occa­ sionally stirred so that the earthen cells of the pupae and adults may be destroyed. It will usually require at least' three years to render the soil comparatively free from wireworms, as only the 'pupae and adults are killed, the young larvae remaining un­ injured. Rotation of crops Is also helpful in keeping the p^st In check. MICE IN THE ORCHARD. How They May Be Kept from Girdling The "Minnesota experiment station says thqt some experienced tree grow­ ers recommend the following treat­ ment as protection against rabbits and mice: "Make a thick whitewash, about the consistency of cream, to which add enough blue vitriol to give a 'robin's egg blue' color. Pass between two rows; and apply with a brush, coating that side of each , row which is next to the operator." Another remedy recommended iw to make a poisonous solution, using one part of sulphate of strychnine, onethird of one part of borax, one part of white syrup, ten parts of wafer. This mixture is put Into a large, wide'* mouthed bottle and well shaken. Now cut fresh twigs from the kind of trees that are being attacked and with a small brush paint them lightly with tho poison, especially the terminal buds. These are said to kill mice and rabbits without endangering birds and other animals. Scatter in runways fre­ quented by the rodents. Mice may also be killed with strych­ nine, powdered on corn mfeal mush. Wheat or com may be soaked for 24 hours In a strychnine solution, made by boiling a teaspoonful of the crys­ tals In two quarts of water, the grain, when dried, to be scattered at the bases of the trees.

I have seeded considerable land the past ten years and will give briefly my experience and observation, writes a correspondent of Farmers' Review. In Mercer county, Illinois, the blue grass (and red-top In the lowlands) will supplant all other grasses in a short time when used either as meadow or pasturage, especially the latter. My plan of getting a good pasture is as follows: I seed In either spring or autumn; if in spring, with oats, in autumn with rye- With oats I go through With seeder and sow one bushel of clover seed to ten acres of ground, then I sow three bushels of oats, disk thoroughly, far­ row once the same way, then sow one peck of timothy seed, then cross har­ row and leave until oats are ready to harvest, and almost invariably have a good stand. .If on low ground I add a ilttle red top which is easily grown and yields a bountiful supply of both hay and pasture. 1 sow1 clover first, as it roots deepest. The following year I have an excellent crop of hay pasture in the fall. At this time blue grass appears, and in two or three years is firmly set After the first year the land may be pastured stead­ ily and soon forms a firm sod.

KING’S NEW DISCOVERY Court Delays Decision—Arguments of Lawyers Richardson and Darrow for the Defense Are Answered by Senator Borah. Details Fort Worth, Tex., May 7.—A storm of wind and rain which was general throughout a considerable area In northern Texas Monday and which at some places .assumed the proportions of a tornado, according to meager re­ ports received here, resulted in the loss of at least three lives, the injury of many other persons ana great dam­ age to property and crops. Several villages were wiped out. but because of the prostration of both tel­ egraph and telephone wires, details are almost impossible to obtain. . At Deport, one of the largest vil­ lages in Lamar county. 20 miles from Paris, the storm passed northeast, cut­ ting a path about 100 yards wide. The business part ot the town was not touched, tho damage being in the resident dlstricL The Baptist par­ sonage was blown to pieces, its tim­ bers. and the furniture scattered over the ground. R. H. Bryson’s residence was demolished. As (ar as'can be as• certained nd one was hurt at this place. Crops are badly damaged. It Is reported that at Halesboro. in Red River county, the wife and child of Andrew Bell were hurt. Develops into Tornado. A terrific wind passed over Sulphur Springs about two o’clock, traveling from the southwest to the northeast West of Sulphur Springs the wind as­ sumed the proportions of a tornado, carrying death and great property damage in its wake. A passenger train on the Cotton Belt was held up , by the train crew until tbe storm passed. The engineer could see the twisting cloud as it swept across the tracks and cut a swath through tiie country. As soon as the storm passed the train proceeded and no one was hurt k At the village of Antioch, or Pleas­ ant Grove, as it is also called, the whole village was practically des­ troyed. Antioch is about seven miles north of Sulphur Springs. This is in the tornado belt and most of the houses are provided with storm cel­ lars. To this fact is due the escape of a number of those who were caught almost in the path ot the storm. The home of Wm. Lemmons was destroy­ ed. entailing a loss of about $10,000. Three barns on the. place were also destroyed and many head of live stock killed. . Man Crushed by Debris. . The renter of the place named Barxll, whose family consisted of himself and seven children, saw the storm coming apd made a run for tbe cellar at the Lemmons home. Barzll was caught by the wind before he could reach shelter and crushed by flying debris. Five of the children reached the cellar in safety, but Mrs. Barzll and two of the children were fear­ fully injured and fears are entertained for their recovery. The home of James Ferguson was destroyed and Mrs. Ferguson was ' dangerously hurt by flying- debris. Ben Pogue and Ids wife were badly hurt when their home was blown down, but it is thought they may re­ cover. Mrs. Sid Lackey was hurt and will probably die. There were others Injured at An­ tioch, but It is impossible at this time to learn their names. Crops in the path of the storm, which was unusual•ly wide, were completely destroyed. The village of Birthwright was des­ troyed and it was known that at least one death occurred there and it is said one person was fatally hurt. Crawford Martin and J. P. Conner were seriously hurt and may die. Birthwright is a village of between 300 and 400 persona. COUGHS*"0 COLDS HAYWOOD’S COUNSEL AT BOISE . ASK FOR A BILL OF PARTICULAR8.

May 7.—Dr. John Watson (“Ian Maclaren"), who has been suffering here the past two weeks from an abscess in his ear, died Monday morning. Dr. Watson came to Mount Pleasant on April 23 from Minneapolis to de­ liver a lecture to the students of the Iowa Wesleyan university. En route Dr. Watson became Hl and wgs com­ pelled td cancel the date for the lec­ ture. The illness, which was declared to be tonsilitis. progressed’ favorably. Last Monday and Tuesday the patient was able' to be up and around and transacted some business. Wednes­ day an abscess formed on the right ear. The system absorbed the pus, and in 24 hours developed serious Symptoms. The physicians regarded the case as critical, but hoped to stem the tide ot the disease. Blood poison­ ing set in and on Saturday other ab­ scesses started to form in the left ear anil throat. The patient's .condition was aggravated by a bad attack of rheumatism. Monday morning the physicians sent for a Chicago special­ ist. who arrived in the afternoon. Dr. Watson’s end was sudden and unex­ pected and was hastened by a weak heart. His wife, who was his constant companion In his last Illness, left the room at 11 o’clock. She was gone about 15 minutes, and, returning, found her husband lifeless. New York, May 6.—Rev. Jere Knode Cooke, unfrocked rector ot St. George’s Protestant Episcopal church of Hempstead, L. I., 'and J7-year-old Floretta Whaley, his ward, who eloped last Monday, have been located 'in a hotel at Peekskill, N. Y., according to information received Saturday. It is announced that the officials of Nas­ sau county have issued a warrant for Cooke's arrest and that officers have been, sent to Peekskill to serve it Mrs. 'Whaley, grandmother of the missing girl, went before Judge Get­ ting at Mineola and swore out the warrant for Cooke's arrest While it is not known positively what- charge was made, it is rumored to be abduction, Miss Whaley being still a minor. * Cooke Fears Mob Violence.

The motion of the defense for this disclos­ ure of the case of . the state' was argued at length Monday, and at the conclusion of the discussion the court announced that it would make a de­ cision at the time stated. The prisoner, under guard of Sher­ Iff. Hodgin and two deputies, was brought into court for the argumenL and of his counsel both Frank Rich­ ardson, of Denver, and Clarence Dar­ row, of Chicago, pleaded in his behalf­ Senator Borah alone spoke in behalf of the state,'although James H. Haw­ ley, his associate, was in the court room when the proceedings began. The discussion, always earnest, was characterized at times by deep feeling and dramatic intensity. Argument for Defendant. . Mr. Richardson, who opened the ar­ gument, contended that’ the indict­ ment was lacking particularity; that it left the defendants in the dark as to the nature of the case to be pre­ sented against them, and the defend­ ants were entitled to a more specific showing of the- caste. He submitted an extended brief citing a great number of authorities and precedents in favor of his contention. Mr. Borah in reply declared that the defense was seeking a disclosure of the proof in the hands of the state, rather than more perfect pleadings, and asserted that the reports con­ tained no, single authority that would support such a contention. • Mr. Darrow, who closed the argu­ ment, began by saying that it was the purpose of the defense to secure a disclosure of the evidence in the hands of tho prosecution, and asked why the defense was not entitled to such.a showing. He made a spirited | attack upon tbe attitude of the prose­ cution towards its witnesses and evi­ dence,-describing it as mysterious, un­ fair and unjust. He asserted that, the only question Involved was one of fairness and justice to the accused; laid stress upon the difficulty of se­ curing testimony from distant points and the danger to the defense of “sur­ prise" testimony, and passionately as­ serted that the rights of the prisoners were as much in tbe hands of the prosecution as in the keeping of the defense. Ready for Trial Otherwise. In answer to Judge Wood, Mr. Dar­ row said that the defense was not ready to go to trial, but Mr. Richard­ son Interrupted him to make the qual­ ification that the defense was as ready as it ever could be in the circum­ stances where the case of the state was withheld from 1L He said that in ail other respects the defense was ready. Mr.-t Richardson, responding in brief to the argument of Mr. Borah, said that the counsel for the state made no distinction in his arguments be­ tween the overt acts which the state would seek to show against the pris. oners and the evidence by which it would seek to show the commission of the alleged overt acts. The defence wished to know what the overt acts *were. . Mr. Borah closed the discussion with a spirited speech in which he de­ fended secrecy in obtaining witnesses, instancing the loss of two in Colorado, Sunday, disavowed a desire for Any man’s blood unjustly, and avowed the purpose of the state to jlo its duty. • President for Square Deal. New York. May 6.—In a letter read .Sunday before the Central Federated union President Roosevelt states that if evidence is submitted to him show­ ing that there has been a miscarriage of justice tor or against Moyer and Haywood awaiting trial at Boise, Ida­ ho, charged with the murder o' former Gov. Steiuienberg, he will bring such evidence to the attention of the at­ torney general for such action, if any, as may be in the power of the fed­ eral authorities to take. The communication was the forma) reply of the president to the commit­ tee of the union which recently called upon the president in Washington and requested him to set forth in general his attitude toward the accused men, and specifically why he had referred to Moyer and Haywood as “undeslra-, ble citizens.” Eleven “Black Hands” Convicted.

Many people use' the ifileys as a The People to be Given a Chance garbage-dumping place and it is true . to try the Machines. . that some of them are in a^very bad , The township board has decided to give the people, of the township a chance to decide if they want a voting machine. The Abbott Voting Machine Company will put two machines here for use at the stiecial election, which will .be held on Friday, May 31. The company are to stand the expense of the election and upon the result of the vote will.depend whether the machines are purchased or not. Two machines have been sent here and will be set up soon to give the voters plenty of time to get acquainted with the workings of the machine. A representative will ■accompany the machines to instruct all those who desire to look into the workings of the machines. The • News does Jnot advise the pur­ chase of the machines, neither does it think they would not be a good thing for the township and village to own, as in a 1 most.every place where they are used they are well spoken of and seem to give entire satisfaction where properly and intelligently used. It is claimed for them that they save a large amount of the expense of elec­ tions and are much more accurate in getting at the proper expression of the voters than the Australian ballot, such as is now used. They also give the results of an election as soon as five minutes after the last man has voted. The machines are in general use all over, the state and there is no doubt but the time is coming when voting machines will be used exclusively all over the country and if the voters of tiie township wish the township lioard to buy One it is up to them to give such an expression at the election to be held on Friday, May 31. The company* will have a large ad­ vertisement in' another part of .our next issue which we ask all voters to read. ' Advantages of Saving: You always have money when you need It.

Michigan, on July 27. 1804. The paper, while not so Very bld, was published during the time of the civil war and contains much that is interesting now and was probably more interesting then. In it is contained a letter written by President Lincoln to the confederate officers, ■wherein he said that “Any proposition that embraces the restora­ tion of peace, the integrity of the union and the abandonment of slave­ ry, and which comes by and with an authority that can control the armies now at war against the United States, will 1x3 received and considered by the Executive Goverment of the United States, and will be met by liberal , terms’ on substantial and collateral points, and the bearer or bearers thereof shall have safe con­ duct both ways.’’ The letter was replied to by the rebel leaders where* in they ■’aid that it was an insult to the confederate states and it wbuld not be considered. The paper also tells that the state of Michigan had. just been permitted to raise 12,000 troops and that the president, had called for 500,000 more men and meant to crush the enemy. It states that the call was heralded with joy by the people of Michigan and by the men then in the army.' who heralded the joyful news that their brethren were coming from home to help achieve the final victories. The pajx?rcontains little of anything but war news. It gave the population of Ingham county at that time as 17409. The advertisements w&e all set single-column and were merely a statement that the advertiser was in business and where lie could be found. The styles of type used, many of them, are the- styles that are now coming back into use. There were no large department stores then, they were all general stores and the store-keeper did not push so strenuously for busi­ ness as tne storekeeper of today.' • ’state at the present time.

BASE BALL NEWS. The coming season promises to be an interesting one in local base ball circles. A fund of about 4200 has been raised for the support of the team, and it is assured that we will have a good team, one able to hold it’s own with the teams of tlie neigh­ boring towns. C. W. Smith has been elected manager of the team, with Menno Wenger to act as manager un­ til Mr. Smith arrives home from the south. The boys are to have new uniforms, which will be ordered this week, but will probably not be here for-several weeks, as the uniform houses are very busy just at this time. Another fund of 8200 has l»een raised to erect a grand stand. This money has been subscribed by loyal fans about town, who will have the receipts from the grand stand, until it pays for the cost of construction, after which it will be turned over to the team an their own property. Arrangements are now being made for games, and with good ‘prospects of some good, ones in tne near future. It Ys proposed to play about one game a week through the season, and the home seasoii will probably open with a game with some good team on Dec­ oration day, in the afternoon after the exercises of the day are over, al­ though it is possible that one home game may lx? played before that time. Trams arelx?ing organized at Bellevue, Vermontville, Woodland, Sunfield, LakeCklessa. Middleville, Caledonia, and other neighboring points’, and it is possible that a regular series of games with these teams may be arrang­ ed. LOCAL NEWS. Ice cream soda at Furniss.'

It was from Stoddard that I learned the truth about Olivia’ and I am not, I fear, greatly ashamed of hiving In­ vited him to dinner merely to pump him as to the Armstrongs of Cincin­ nati and their daughter. Olivia’s father, Stoddard informed me. was a retired physician of wealth, wi^o lived at Walnut Hills. I can hear now the great roars of laughter that broke from him as I kept protesting that the girl in gray I had seen at the An­ nandale station was Olivia Gladys Armstrong. It was only when we set­ tled down to a comparison of. our Im­ pressions that the truth gradually dawned upon me—that the girl In gray was not Olivia Gladys Arm­ strong but Marian Devereux.) The whole thing was ridlculoui '" ‘ -my denslty, my stupid acceptance of the ground on which Marian Devereux had chosen to meet me; and I was not convinced until the big chaplain had given me a circumstantial description of the real Olivia—a child of 15^ with a gypsy face and dark hair and eyes. "Where has Miss Devereux gone?" "Why, to Cincinnati, with Ollvlir Gladys Artnstrong." he answered. "Thcy’s great chums, you know." On top of my mall next morning lay a small envelope, unstamped, and ad­ dressed to me In a free running hand. "Ferguson, the gardner, left it,” ex­ plained Bates. I opened and read: "If convenient will Mr. Glenarm kindly look in at St Agatha's some rm sorry we shall not meet again. It day this week at four o'clock.

The train roared up to the plat- been summoned before a severe mus­ 'form, and she was at once surrounded ter for discipline. I was idly beating by a laughing throng of departing my hat with my gioves when a quick students. Two brown-robed Sisters step sounded in the hall and Instantly stood like sentinels, one at either side. a brown-clad figure appeared In the doariAz- woman who Is likely to come to the point, without ado. The white band at her forehead brought Intc relief two wonderful gray eyes that were allght with kindliness. She surveyed me m moment, then her Ups parted with a smile. . “This room. Is rather forbidding; If you will come with me—’’ She turned with an air of authority that was & part of her.undeniable dis­ tinction. and I was rested a moment later In a pretty sitting room whose windows gave a.view of the dark win­ ter wood and frozen lake beyond. “I’m afraid. .Mr. Glenarm. that you are not disposed to be neighborly, and you must pardon me If I seem to be pursuing you.” Her smile, her voice, her manner were charming. I had pictured her a sour old woman, who had hidden away from a world that had offered her no pleasure. "The apologies must all be on my side. Sister Theresa. I have been greatly occupied since coming here— distressed and perplexed, even.” "Our young ladies treasure the Illu­ sion that there are ghosts In your house," she said, with a smile that Jtsposed of the matter. She folded her slim white hands and spoke with simple directness. "Mr. Glenarm. there is something 1 wish to ask you, but I can say It only if we are to be friends. I have feared you might look upon us here as enemles.” “That .Is a strong word," I replied evasively. , "Let me say to you that I hope very much that nothing will prevent your Inheriting all that Mr. Glenarm wished you to have from him." “Thank you; that Is both kind and generous," I said with no little sur­ prise. , "Not In the leasL I should be dis­ loyal to your grandfather, who was my friend and the friend of my family if I did not feel kindly toward you and wish you well. And I mhst say for "Miss Devereux." I found a certain pleasure in pronouncing her name. "Miss Devereux Is very greatly dis­ turbed 'over the good Intentions of your grandfather in placing her name in his will. You can doubtless under­ stand how uncomfortable a person of any sensibility would be under the cir­ cumstances. I’m sorry you have never met her. She Is a very charming young lady whose happiness does not, I may. say, depend on other people’s money.” She had never told, then! I smiled at the recollection of our interviews. ”1 am sure that Is true. Sister The­ resa." "Now, I •wish to speak to you about a matter of some delicacy. It Is. I un­ derstand perfectly, no business of mine how much of a fortune Mr. Glenarm left But this matter has been brought to my attention In a disagree­ able way. Your grandfather estab­ lished this school; he gave most of the money for these buildings. I had other friends who offered to contribute but he Insisted on doing it all. But now Mr. Pickering takes the ground that the money—or part of it, at least —was only a loan.” "Yes; I understand." "Mr. Pickering tells me that he has no alternative in the matter; that the law requires him to collect this money as a debt due the estate. "That Is undoubtedly true, as a gen­ eral proposition. He told me in New York that he had a claim against you for 150,000." “Yes. that Is the amount I wish to say to you. Mr. Glenarm. that If It Is necessary. I can pay that amount" "Pray do not trouble about IL Sit­ ter Theresa. There are a good many things about my grandfather’s affairs that I don’t understand, but I'm not going to see an old friend of his swin­ dled. There's more In all this than appears. My grandfather seems to have mislaid or lost most of his assets before he died. And yet he had the reputation of being a pretty cautious business man." “The impression Is abroad, as you must know, that your grandfather con­ cealed his fortune before his death. The people hereabouts believe so; and Mr. Pickering, the executor, has been unable to trace IL” “Yes, I believe Mr. Pickering has not been able to solve the problem,” I said and laughed. “But, of course, you and he will co­ operate in an effort to find the lost property." She bent forward slightly; her eyes, as they met mine, examined me with a keen InteresL "Why shouldn't 1 be frank with you. Sister Theresa? I have every reason for believing Arthur Pickering a scoundrel. He does not care to co­ operate with me In searching for this money. The fact is that he Is very much wishes to eliminate me as a fac­ tor in the settlement of the estate. I speak carefully; I know exactly what I am saying.” She bowed her head slightly was silent for a moment The silence was the more marked from the fact that the hood of her habit concealed her fate. "What you say is very serious." “Yes, an<| his offense is equally se­ rious. It may seem odd for me to be saying this to you when I am a strang­ er—when you may* be pardoned for having no very high opinion of me." She turned her face to me—it was singularly gentle and refined—not a face to associate with an idea of self­ seeking or duplicity. "I sent for you, Mr. Glenarm. be­ cause I had a very good opinion of you; because, for one reason, you are and the friendly light In’her'gray eyes drove away any lingering doubt I may have bad as to her sincerity. “I wished to warn you to have a care for your own safety. 1 don’t warn you against Arthur 'Pickering alone, but against the countryside. The Idea of a hidden fortune Is alluring; a .mys­ terious house and a Jost treasure make a very enticing combination. I fancy Mr. Glenarm did not realise that ’ he was creating dangers for the peo­ ple he wished to help.” She was silent again, her eyes bent meditatively upon me. Then, she spoke abruptly. . . * * "Mr. Pickering wishes to marry my niece.” . ' "Ah. I have been waiting to hear that. I am exceedingly glad to know that be has so nobl© an ambition. But Miss Devereux Isn’t encouraging him, ns near ns I can make out.

I like the word—ana “—And Mr. Pickering’s rather elab­ orate methods of wooing—’’ "He’s as heavy as lead!" I declared. "—Amuse Marian up to a certain point; then they annoy her. He has Implied pretty strongly that the claim against me could be easily adjusted if Marian marries ’him. But .she will never marry him. whether she beneflta by your grandfather's will or however that may be!" “I should say not.” I declared with a warmth that caused Sister Theresa to sweep me with those wonderful gray eyes. "But first l?e expects to And this fortune and endow Miss Devereux with It That Is a part of the scheme. And my own interest in the estate must be eliminated before he can bring that condition about But Sis­ ter Theresa, I am not bo easily got rid of as Arthur Pickering imagines. My staying qualities, which were al­ ways weak In the eyes of my family, have, been braced up a trifle." . I thought pleasure and hope were expressed In the monosyllable, and my heart warmed to her. "Sister Theresa, you and I are un­ derstanding each bther much better than I Imagined we should"—and we both laughed, feeling a real sympathy growing between us." "Yes. I believe we are”—and the smile lighted her face again. “So 1 can tell you two things. Th© first is that Arthur Pickering will never find my grandfather’s lost for­ tune, assuming that any exists. The second Is that In no event will he marry your niece." "You spea!: with a good deal of con­ fidence,” she said and laughed a low, murmuring laugh. 1 thought there was relief In IL "But I didn’t suppose Ma­ rian’s affairs Interested you.” "They don’t. Sister Theresa. Her affairs are not of the slightest Import­ ance—but she is!” There was frank Inquiry In her eyes now. "But you don’t know her—you have missed your opportunity." "To be sure, I don t know her; but I know Olivia Gladys Armstrong. She’s a particular friend of mine—we have .chased rabbits together, and she told me a great deal. I have formed a very good opinion of Miss Devereux In that way. Oh. that note you wrote about Olivia’s Intrusions beyond the wall! I ought to thank you for it— but I really didn’t mind." “A note? I never wrote you a note until to-day!" . “Well, some one did!” I said, then she smiled. “Oh. that must have been Marian! She was always Olivia’s loyal friend and apologist." . ' "I should say so." "But you shouldn’t have known Olivia—It Is unpardonable! If she played tricks upon you, you should not have taken advantage of them to make her acquaintance. That wasn’t fair »o me!” "I suppose not! But I protest against this deportation. The land­ scape hereabouts is only so much sky, snow and lumber without Olivia." "We miss her, too." replied Slater Theresa. “We have less to do!"

Of all the necessary equipment for poultry . production, this stands first in importance, and much of your sue, cess will depend upon the Intelligent selection of a hatching machine. v When the "machine arrives, uncrate it carefully. Put toother the different parts ’ according to the directlqns. If you have bought a good machine the printed Instructions for setting up and starting will be ample. There are a few common sense points, however, which will serve to save time and tabor. . Put the incubator in a cellar or room where there is a pretty even temperature and good ventilation. Even the best machines, will do better work tn such a place thad when sub­ jected to sudden and severe changes. The eggs, also - will suffer leas from abrupt and frequent variations while turning. Keep the lamp wicks clean and trim as often as necessary to do this. Trimming every, day is unnec­ essary. With good oil, every third day Is.often enough. Do not fuss too much over the tem­ perature. It can -vary a degree or two either way and do no barm. The eggs may run as- low as 50 degrees for some hours and then hatch well. Be­ ware of overheating. It 1* more un­ natural, and, hence. more harmful.

Munroe Implements Last fall, when I began packing my bees for winter, I found that my shed -was "not long enough to pack them all in, so I began to plan some easy way to pack seven colonies that I had out In front of my shed, writes -a contrib­ utor to Bee Culture. These hives are standing on what I call trestles, made by driving some large stakes In the ground and nailing some 2x6 pieces to each row of stakes running east and west, the hives facing the south, so I placed the hives just the right dis­ tance apart, then took some three-foot boards I had and laid a board down Phone 9 Seed time is here and we are ready with a full line of seeds of all kinds.

The south ends <J? the boards are just jjven with the front ends of the hives, and the north end extends out one foot further north than the hives do. Then I drove some stakes in a row at the north end of these boards. These stakes can be six or eight feet apart. I nailed a broad plank to the south side of these stakes. The lower edge of this plank was just one inch high­ er than the boards that I laid on the trestle. This plank serves for a back wall to hold the straw. Now remember that there Is about one foot of space between this plank and the back end of the hives, and that theYe is an open space between these boards just back of each hive, so to make a floor without any holes big enough to leak straw. I lay boards back of the hives across the ends of the boards that are laid be­ tween the hives: the rest of the work Is done >just like packing them in a shed, except, of course, the roof. The straw is a^out one foot deep on top of the hives. Then I laid a large rail on top of the straw at the front end, and a small rail on the back part of the straw. I then covered It by laying long boards across the top of the straw so the water would run -north; then I put heavy weights on the boards to hold them to their place. The roof must have plenty of slope. I notice quite a number of bee-keepers have their hives resting on trestles or scaffolds, and I must say that they are handy. When working with your bees. In­ stead of setting frames down on the ground one can set them on the trestle and lean them up against the hive; and when winter comes I can pack my bees In straw without mov­ ing them very much. This way of wintering Is a cheap one, and It has proven to be safe. Culling Out. If breeders of poultry would be more hard-hearted when culling out the flock they would make greater progress In their breeding toward a high mark. Every poor bird left in the flock helps pull down the average quality of the birds that are to be produced in the future. The greatest trouble in the culling Is that many poultry raisers do not have an Ideal before them that Is definitely outlined. Therefore they do not know just when to draw the line in their culling oper­ ations. The culled out birds can al­ ways be disposed of at fair prices, even if they have to be used on the family table.

In digging a cistern, dig It deep and arch well under ground, closing In the arch to receive a two-foot tile to form the neck, which can easily be closed tight agains't toads and Insects. By .the side of the big cistern,, dig a little filtering cistern, as shown In cut, that will hold from ten ttoT5 bar­ rels. 'Wall, arch and cement the same as large cistern, except that In the 'center of the bottom, -which should be -slightly basin shaj>.?, dig and cement a bole large enough and deep enough to receive a bucket that will hold five or six gallons. Have bottom of bucket perforated . with small holes and fasten a strong bale to Aicket by which to lift it out. Have a strong flange turned close to the top of the bucket to rest tight on -the bottom ot filtering cistern round Plan of Large and Small Cisterns. 'top of bole. You- can make it water­ tight by resting flange on packing. If ' bucket Is not good and strong, place a rest under the bottom, as there will be a heavy pressure when filtering ‘cistern is full. From the bottom of ttixe ’hole under bucket connect filter ■with cistern with a three-inch sewer tile thoroughly cemented in. The advantages In this method are that the filleting material can be packed in bucket close enough to per.-mit the water to filter through very •slowly. The filtering cistern being but one-third the depth ot the cistern ■proper, any time the water is below the tube connecting filter with cistern, 'the bucket of filtering material can 'be lifted out and material removed. By closing the tile leading to cistern, .-so that water will not rnn through, one can go into the filtering cistern and wash It thoroughly without dls■turbing the water tn cistern. By fill­ ing the bucket with pounded brick, ■charcoal and slate packed tn clean washed sand, the water will filter through very slowly. After packing the bucket and before, setting it In the hole, run water through to wash all sediment out.

FEAR FOR SUGAR CROP Lansing.—That it is going to be a difficult matter to frame a railroad commission bill satisfactory to nil the interests concerned, was shown when the joint railroad committees held a hearing on the-merits of the substi­ tute measure that was drafted to su­ percede the bill presented by the Man­ ufacturers’ association. Hal Smith, of Detroit, who drafted the original bill, took the view that the substitute is too radical to invite general support, and he questioned the wisdom of sev­ eral ot the amendments. He also pointed out that the original bill met the demands of the shipper* and waa. also satisfactory to most of the rail­ roads. A. M. . Todd, of Kalamazoo, talked in favor of the substitution, but he also wanted a number of provisions added for the further protection of shippers. The attorneys for the Mich­ igan Central and Pere Marquette rail­ roads were not present and there was a general demand from all the counsel that they be given further time in which to study the provisions of the substitute so that they may. be better firepared to discuss IL This was finaly granted and the hearing adjourned until next Tuesday. The provisions ot the substitute that are particularly ob­ jectionable to the railroads relate to authority vested in the commission. The first practically gives the commis­ sion authority over the operation of trains and gives them authority over steam and electric terminals to the ex­ tent that the commission" could compel the Michigan Central to permit the Pere Marquette to use Its terminals. The substitute also leaves the question of reciprocal demurrage, which the rallroacl committee of the 'senate dis­ missed after several hearings earlier fn the session, to the commission. Against this the railroads use the ar­ guments that they would be at the mercy of the commission and they, would prefer some fixed regulations. This Is one of the matters that the in­ terstate commerce commission is try­ ing to fdthom. The substitute also leaves the commission to restrict the Issuance of stock-and bonds, which Is distasteful to the railroads. Governor Will Veto Bill. By a vote of 56 to 25 the house posted the exemption of credits bill. Perhaps more work has been done In the interests of this measure than any other that has come up this ses­ sion, but the final determination is a long way off. The bill now goes to the senate and in the event of its ■ passage Gov. Warner vy 111 inter­ pose his veto. He is convinced that the bill will give no measure of re­ lief to the borrowers of mohey, es­ pecially in that it will not reduce the rate of interest The governor is strongly impressed with the stand taken by Gov. Davidson, who is work­ ing for the repeil of the exemption law in Wisconsin for the reason that It has proven a failure after being tried for four years. The debate on the proposition took up nearly three hours, opposition to the repeal being led by Representatives Waters, New­ kirk and Benton. The last named con­ tended tha\ it would take $48,000,000 from the tax rolls, a sum equal to the assessed valuation of 25 counties in the gtate. Representative Newkirk declared that while the riel? money lenders In his section had urged him to support the measure not one re­ quest had come from the farmers or from men who are small borrowers. He took the position that the object sought Is wrong in principle and should not be permitted. Judges Not In Agreement. The judges <jf the supreme court Were divided on questions Involved In the proceedings brought by the Pere Marquette Railroad company to con­ demn for its use certain properties owned by the United States Gypsum company, of Grand Rapids The con­ demnation proceedings have been in ffae_ probate and circuit courts for some time. Judge Perkins lately or­ dered that the objections of the Gyp­ sum company be overruled, and that' the sheriff empanel a jury to meet at the court house In Grand Rapids May b to pass upon the question of the ne­ cessity aud assess the damages. A writ cf certorira was granted by the supreme court for the review of tbs proceedings, the action to -condemn being temporarily stayed. Now the court, standing four to three, has de­ cided that certbrari Is not the proper remedy In the ease, and Issued an or­ der to show c.nose why a mandamus should not be issued requiring, the cir­ cuit judge to set aside his order au­ thorizing the condemnation proceed­ ings. which are also ordered stayed'. As indicating the- proper steps to be­ taken In appealing from the decision of courts In eontfemnation proceed­ ings. the decision of the supreme court Is of considerable Importance.

Immigration Commission. The house committee on state af­ fairs rej»orted out a bill creating an immigration commission consisting of the secretary of state, auditor general and state land commissioner, and pro­ viding for an immigration commission­ er to be paid $2,000 a year.

Beet Growth of Michigan Will Be Nipped If Winter Weather Con­ tinues—Millions of Dollars Ara at Stake. Saginaw.—The entire beet sugar crop of Michigan for 1907, estimated at $10,000,000, la threatened with whole or partial' extinction by 'the ex­ tension of winter into spring. If the weather turns warm within the next ten days and stays warm there will be the biggest acreage and heaviest yield of beets ever grown In the state, but if it remains cold the acreage will be greatly reduced and the output, with lack of time to mature in the fall, will be stunted beets and a re­ duced or ruined crop. Last season at this time beets had all been planted and were up out of the ground. This year scarcely a beet-has been planted and there is no prospect of seeding In the immediate future unless it sud­ denly grows warmer. , The sugar factories have contract­ ed for the largest acreage of beets ?ver grgjyj (u Michigan, the Jotal being close to 115^00 acres, or 22.000 mqre than were sown last year. Last year 95,000 tons of'sugar was made, which realized $8,750,000, of which $4,750,000 went to the farmers for their beets. Beets, in order to mature and get the full advantages of the growing season, should be planted late in April or very early in May. The ground to-day is in wretched condi­ tion for working. Sugar factory owners are greatly exercised over the situation.

The statement that the train was making a terrific ‘ speed when it struck the defective track is 'borne out by the fact that it covered the 61 miles of curves and crooked track between here and Honda in ex­ actly’ 100 minutes.

In which were 32 persons eating their noonday meal, leaped into the air and was thrown directly on top of the demolished locomotive. Nearly every person in this coach was instantly killed. Scores were scalded by steam escap­ ing from disconnected pipes In the kitchen of the diner. The terror and turmoil of the scens was indescribable. Many of those who escaped instant death by the first Im­ pact were crushed by the rear coaches hurled upon the wreckage. Others, pinioned In thfe debris, were roasted alive. The wreckage caught fire from the coals of the engine, but was ex­ tinguished in a few minutes by the passengers who escaped injury. BOAT BURNS; LOSS $700,000.

COUNCIL APPORTIONMENTS Making Money To the average young American saving is not an end but a means. The young man who has a Iftlle money on hand is the one who is in the position to open the door when opportunity knocks. The'operation of saving for the sake of accumulating a competence is too slow to some to appeal to the imagination. The average human being wishes to be rich, and it is much easier to wish than to work. Rubbing Aladdin’s la$np seems more attractive to them than the work., In this country $5,000 may be considered a competence. At six per cent this would produce about $6 per week. At two dollars a week with the rate of interest this bank pays you would save that amount in about thirty years. Suppose you double that amount and save four dollars a week, then it would take less than fifteen years to have that much saved. Then too, suppose you make invest­ ments with your savings after the first year of your saving; if * you were wise in them you could save that amount in much less * time. This saving question is the most important question today and one that should appeal to every young man—every young man should have a bank. account, not only for the sake of sav­ ing the particular amount he set out to save but to grasp the things Jhat are in reach when - opportunity offers. It helps the young man to learn business, .LAAfiEslf. takes away from him the desire to spe n 1 me n :y for things that do him more good, and places his ideal above the shiftless, making him a man in the full sense of the word in the community in which he lives. fnterest compounded quar­ terly paid on savings accounts.

It was scheduled to reach Cincinnati at 11 o'clock sharp. This, I trust. Is ■sufficiently explicit To the student of morals and mo­ tives I will say a further word. I had resolved to practice deception in run­ ning away from Glenarm House to keep my promise to Marian Devereux. By leaving I should forfeit my right to any part of my grandfather’s es­ tate; but of more immediate Import­ ance was my absence from Glenarm House at this juncture, when the at­ tacks of Morgan and the strange ways ©f Bates made it clearly my duty to ■remain. Pickering and I were en­ gaged In a sharp contest, and I was beginning to enjoy it to the full, but I did not falter in my determination i to visit Cincinnati, hoping to return Without my absence being discovered; i ■o the next afternoon I began prepar-1 Ing for my journey. “Bates, I .fear that I’m taking se-[ vere cold and I'm going to dose myself ' with whisky and quinine and go to bed. I shan’t want any dinner—noth­ ing until you see me again." I yawned and stretched myself with a groan. “I’m very sorry, sir. Shan’t I call • doctor?” “Not a bit of IL Hl sleep It off and .be as lively as a cricket In the morn­ If ing.” At four o’clock I told him to carry some hot water and lemons to my rooms; bade him an emphatic good­ night and locked the door as he left .js cluthes u-Ksa In m Then I packed. tuj my ctcw evening a suit-case. I threw ” the bag __ and’ heavy ulster from a window, swung myself out upon the Hmb of a big ma- j pie and let It bend me to its sharpest | and then dropped lightly to the* grqund. ■ I passed the gate and struck off to- j ward the village with a joyful sense' of freedom. I reached the station I without incident and waited tn the' freight shed to keep out of sight of the station loafers iiptil my train drew up. then quietly jumped aboard. I bought a scat in the Washington •leeper and alter supper in the dinlug car, made myself comfortable and doted and dreamed aa the train plunged through the dark. The through passengers about me went to bed, and 1 was left sprawled out in my open section, lurking on tlie Shadowy frontier between tho known world and dreamland. ' "We're runnning into Cincinnati ten minutes late " said the porter’s voice, and In a moment I was In the vestlbule and out, hurrying to a hotel.' At the St. Botolph I ordered a carriage and broke al! records changing my by my usual breakfast hour In the mornihg If all went well To avoid loss of time in returning to the sta­ tion I paid the hotel charge and car­ ried my bag away with me. "Doctor Armstrong’s residence? Yes. sir; I've already take© two loads there." Tho carriage was soon climbing' what semed to be a mountain to the heights above Cincinnati. To this day I associate Ohio’s most interesting city with a lonely carriage ride that was as strange to, me aa a trackless jungle In the wilds of Africa. And my heart began to perform strange tattoos on my ribs. I was going to the house of' a gentleman who did not know of my existence, to see a girl who was his guest, to whom I bad never, as the conventions go, been presented. It did not seem half so easy, now that I was well launched upon the adven­ ture. ’ I stopped the cabman just as he was about to enter an iron gateway whose posts bore two groat lamps? 'That’s all right, sir. I can drive right in.” "But you needn’t," I said. Jumping out "Walt right here.” Doctor ixxuor Armstrongs Armstrong’s residence was brilliantly lighted, and the strains \of a waltz stole across tbe lawn cheerily. I made a detour and studied the house, seeking a door by which I could enter without passing the unfriendly Gibral tar of a host and hostess on guard to welcome belated guests. A long conservatory filled with trop­ ical plants gave me an opportunity. Promenaders were passing idly through it and out Into another part of the house by au exit I could not see. A handsome, spectacled gentle­ man opened a glass door within a yard of where I stood, sniffed the air and said to his companion as he turn­ ed back with a shrug Into the conser­ vatory: "There's no sign of snow. It Isn’t Christmas weather at all." He strolled away through the palms and I Instantly threw off my ulster _ cast them behind some and cap, bushes and boldly opened the door and entered. The ball room was on the third floor but the guests were straggling down to supper and I took my stand at the ^e broad stairway and glanced UP carelessly as though waiting for 501110 one- 11 waE a large and brlP llant company and many a lovely face passed me as I stood waiting. The very size of the gathering gave nie security, and I smoothed my gloves complacently^ The spectacled gentleman whose In­ terest in the weather had given me a valued hint of the open conservatory door, came now and stood beside me. He even put his hand on my arm with intimate, friendliness. There was a sound of mirth and scampering feet In the ball above and At ths Top of ths Stair, Her Height Accentuated by Her Gown of Whit®, Stood Marian Devereux. was more hand clapping, in which I joined with good wllL Some one behind me was explaining what had just occurred. Olivia,' the youngest daughter of the house, had been denied a glimpse of the ball; Miss Devereux had made a wager with her host that Olivia would ap­ pear before midnight; and Olivia, de­ feating the plot against her, gained the main ball at the stroke of 12. "Good night! Good night!” called Olivia—the real Olivia—In derision to tlie company, and turned and ran back through the applauding, laughing throng. The spectacled gentleman was Oliv­ ia’s father, and he mockingly rebuked Marian Devereux for having encour­ aged an infraction of parent! disci­ pline, while she was twitting him upon the loss of his wager. Then her eyes rested upon me for the first time. She lifted her brows slightly, but contin­ ued talking placidly to her host The situation did not please me; I had not traveled so* far and barglarfously en­ tered Doctor Armstrong’s house In quest of a girl with blue eyes merely to stand by while she talked with an­ other man. I drew nearer, impatiently; and was conscious that four other young men in white waistcoats and gloves quite as irreproachable as my own stood ready to claim her the instant she was free. I did not propose to be thwarted by the beaux of Cincinnati and I ad­ dressed my host boldly. '1 beg your pardon. Doctor—," I said with an assurance for which I blush to this hour. ‘ "All right, my boy; I, too, have been in Arcady!" he exclaimed In cheerful apology, and she put her hand on m; arm and I led her away. "Ho called me ’my boy,’ so I must be passing muster.” I remarked, not dar­ ing to look at her. "He’s afraid not to recognize you. His inability to remember faces is a town joke." We reached a quiet corner of the great hall and I found a seat for her. "You don’t seem surprised to see me.—you knew I would come. I should have come across the world for this, —for just this.” Her eyes were grave at once. "Why did you come? I did not think you were so foolish. This is all—so wretched. You didn’t know that Mr. Pickering—Mr. Pickering—" She was greatly distressed and this name came from her chokingly. "Yes; what of him?" I laughed. "He is well on the way to California,—and without you!” * "No—you don’t know—you don’t un­ derstand—he’s here! He abandonad his California trip at Chicago; he tele­ graphed me to expect him—•ere—to­ night! You must go at once—at once!” "Ah. but you can’t frighten me.” I said, trying to realize just what a meet­ ing with Pickering in that house might mean. "No,”—she looked anxiously about. —“they were to arrive late, he and the Taylors; they know the Armstrongs quite well. They may come at any moment now. Please go!" "But I have only a few minutes my­ self.—you wouldn't have me sit them out tn the station down town? There are some things I have come to say, and Arthur Pickering and I are not afraid of each other!" "But you must not meet him' here. Think what that would mean to meL You are very foolhardy, Mr. Glenarm. I'had no idea you would come—" "But you wished to try me.—you challenged me.” she laughed, more at ease, "I thought—" “Yea, what did you think—that I was tied hand and foot by a dead man’s money—’’ “No. It wasn’t that wretched for­ tune; but I enjoyed playing the child before you—1 really love Olivia—and It seemed that the fairies were protect­ ing me and that I could play being a and threw her arms about him and child to ths- very end of the chapter then down the steps, between the line of guests arrested in their descent, came a dark laughing girl In the garb of Little Red Riding Hood, amid gen­ eral applause and laughter. “It’s Olivia! She won the wagerl" exclaimed the spectacled gen Haman, The time-table Informed me and the girl, whoso dark curls were don’t care. Lot’s Imagine that we haven't any names.—I’m sure my name Isn't of any,use, and 1’11 be glad to go nameless all my days If only—" "If only—” she repeated Idly, open­ ing and closing her fan. It was a frail blue trifle, paintfid in golden butter­ flies. "There are so many ‘If onlles* that I hesitate to choose; but I will venture one. If only you will come back to 8L Agatha’s! Not to-morrow, or the next day, but, say, with the first bluebirds^,1 believe they are the harbingers up th.ere.” Her very ease was a balm to my spirits; she was now a veritable daugh­ ter of repose. One arm in its long, white sheath lar quiet in her lap; her right hand held the golden butterflies against the soft curve of her cheek. A collar of pearls clasped her throat and accented the clear girlish outlines of her profile. ! felt the appeal of her youth and purity. It was like a cry in my heart, and the dreary house by the lake, and Pickering and the weeks within the. stone walls of my prison were as though they .had never been. "The friends who know me best never expect me to promise to be any­ where st a given.time. I can’t tell; perhaps I shall follow the bluebirds to Indiana: but why should t. when I can't play being Olivia any more?" “Why not? You have seen how dull I am: and that note.of apology you wrote from the school really fooled me. But I have seen the real Olivia now. I don’t want you to go too far— not where .1 can’t follow—and this flight 1 shall hardly dare repeat" Her lips closed—like a rose that had gone back to be,a bud again—and she pondered a moment, slowly freeing and Imprisoning the golden butterflies "You have risked a fortune, Mr. Glenarm, very, very foolishly,—If you are found hero. Why, Olivia must have recognized -you! She hud seen you often across the wall.” “But I don't care—I'm not‘staying at that ruin up there for money. My grandfather meant more to me than that—" "Yes; I believe that is so. He was a dear old gentleman; and he liked me because I thought bls jokes adorable. My father and he bad known each other. But there was—no expectation —no wish to profit by his friendship. My name in his will is a great embar­ rassment, a source of real annoyance. The newspapers printed dreadful pic­ tures of me in coanectlon with the wilt I say to you. quite frankly, that I wouldn't accept a cent of Mr. Glenarm’s money it it were offered me; and that is why."—•nd her smile was a flash of spring,—"I want you to obey the .terms of the will and earn your fortune.” . She closed the fan sharply and lifted her eyec to mine. "But there isn’t any fortune; It's all a myth, a joke.” "Mr. Pickering doesn't seem to think so. He had every reason for be­ lieving that Mr. Glenarm was a veryrich man.” "But assuming that there’s money buried there by the lake like a pirate’s treasure, it Isn’t Pickering's if he finds IL Tiere are laws to protect even the dead from robbery!" I concluded hotly. "How difficult you are! Suppose you should fall from a boat, or be shot —accidentally—then I might have to take the fortune after all; and Mr. Pickering might think of an easier way of getting it than by—’’ "Stealing It! Yes; I know what you mean: but you wouldn’t—!” Half-past 12 struck on the stairway and I started to my JeeL "You wouldn’t—•" I repeated. "I might, you kuow!" "I must go.—but hot with that, not with any hint of that.—please!" “If you let him defeat you, if you fail to spend your year there,—we’ll overlook this one lapse,"—she looked me steadily in the eyes, wholly guilt­ less of coquetry but Inflnltely kind,— “then,—” , She paused, opened tho fan, held it ufr to the light and studied tho golden butterflies. "Then—Jet me see—oh. I shall never chase another rabbit as long as I live! Now go—quickly—quickly!" "But you haven’t told me when and. where It was we met the first rime. Please!" She laughed, but urged mo away with her eyes. "I shan't do It! It isn’t proper for me to remember. If your memory Is so poor. I wonder how it would seem for us to meet just once—and be in­ troduced! Good night! Yoh really came. You are a gentleman of your word. Squire Glenarm!" She gave me the tips of her fingers without looking at me. A servant came in hurriedly. "Mias Devereux. Mr. and Mrs. Tay­ lor and Mr. Pickering are In the draw­ ing-room.” "Yes; very well; I. will come at once.” Then to me: “They must not see you—there, that way!” and she stood in the door, fac­ ing me, her hands lightly touching the frame as though to secure my way. 1 I turned for a last look and saw her waiting—her eyes bent gravely upon me, her arms still half-raised, barring the door; then she turned swiftly away and passed through the hall. Outside I found my hat and coat, and wakened my sleeping driver. He drove like mad into the city, and I swung myself upon the north-bound train just as it was drawing out of the station.

"We hold Mayor Schmitz' written promise to carry out the wishes and instructions of the committee in ad­ ministering the affairs of the city,” said F. W. Van Sicklen, a member of the committee of seven. Friday. "The committee's agreement with Mayer Schmitz, in short, embracing barely ten lines of writing, contains hi* sweeping promise to a£t absolutely and completely as the committee may direct. Mayor Schmitz has not re­ signed. All reports to .the contrary are erroneous. The only writing be­ tween him and the committee is this ten-line agreement. "If we demand the removal of the chief of police, of any commission or any official connected with the city government he must remove those whom we designate or go back on his written promise. The only hold wq have on him is his promise. If he | disregards that we can do nothing, but I'I believe he will .do anything the com­ mittee asks. I believe that he is not only willing but anxious to do what we want." Mayor Schmitz denied the statement of Ruef before the grand jury that he (the mayor) got $50,000 bribe for the ‘ street-car deal. If you are poor your treatment is free.

By request of the prosecution the hearing was delayed for one day in order that the counter affidavits may be prepared against Schmitz^s motion (or a change ot trial judge. Assistant District Attorney Heney sreated a surprise by announcing that the state has no present intention of asking the court to take the mayor Into custody pending his trial. Schmitz Is at liberty under bonds aggregating $50,000. District Attorney Langdon was asked whether the statement by Mr. Heney that the prosecution "had no present intention of asking the court to order Mayor Schmitz into cus­ tody" indicated that such a request win be made later.

Francisco, May 20.—Notwith­ standing many contradictory stories told about the scope and power of the committee of seven, it is now general­ ly conceded that the administration of municipal affairs in this city is to some extent at least in its hands. In a writ­ ten agreement Mayor Schmits has bound hlmaslf, it is said, to carry out any request which this committee, made up of representative* of the five leading commercial organizations of the city, may make of him. Already tbe committee has begun an investigation into the conduct of the police department and will gradually extend the scope of Its actions to the works board, street department and other branches of the municipal gov­ ernment .

They have been need in. some cities upwards of ten years and at every place where purchased they have been used at every election and have given universal satisfaction. There is no precinct in the State of Michigan where Abbott Voting Machines are used that would consider for a moment going back to the old method of voting. The main advantages attending the use of Abbott Voting Machines may be Bummed up as follows: First, ACCURACY, Second, SECRECY. Third, SIM­ PLICITY; Fourth, RAPIDITY; Fifth, ECONOMY; Sixth, HONESTY. Abbott Voting Machines will pay for themselves in the amount saved in . election expenses in from six to eight years, and quicker where the village uses them, and they then become and continue for all time a source of revenue to the City using them. You know the result ten minutes after the close of the pools and know that they are absolutely correct. No man has ever lost any part of his ballot on an Abbott Voting Machine. The machine prevents every voter from making any mistake. . To prove the assertion that the machine will pay for itself in a few years we quote the following from "THE LIVINGSTON DEMOCRAT” published at Howell, March. 13th, 1907. • "The new Abbott Voting Machine was used for the first time and gave universal satisfaction. In two minutes after the pools were closed the results was known od every man, and in fifteen minutes the-reports were all made and the election board went home to supper. The ballots, clerks aud gate-keepers were not needed witli the machine and no booths were put up. making a nice saving for the taxpayers, and the expense of holding the election being only ' $9.40 as against $35 for the same election last year, the saving being in putting up booths, extra men and extra time in counting, etc." Charlotte considers the Abbott Voting Machine » year ago a question of th* Abbott Voting Machine was purchase of submitted to quote from the "State Republican" of April 3, 1906, to show the result in that city! The citizens of Lansing yesterday voted to pur­ chase of tlie Abbott Voting Machine Company the machines that were used, at the pools. Tlie final count showed dial there were 3.628 for and 801 against the purchase. The voters in favor were in the majority in every precinct. The machines gave satisfaction throughout tlie city, and opinion seems to be unanimous that the machines are a great improvement, and th- nw ed with which the return's could be learned especially pleased the citizens.. Read what the Mayor of the "University City" says about the Abbott Voting Machine! • Ann Arbor, July 1st, 19<M. Sevep of the Abbott Voting Machines have been in use at every election in Ann Arbor for the past five j ears. Tliey have at every election given an absolutely correct record of every vote cast, and the results, which can be determined within a minute after the pools close, have always shown every man’s vote accounted for. It re­ duces' one-half the expense of conducting an election, and renders a chance for a contest im­ possible. Arthur Brown. Mayor. Williamston uses and Abbott Voting Machine.

Gentlemen:— . . • Referring to the Abbott Voting Machine, which we used at our last election, beg to say that the machines gave us jierfect satis­ faction in every instance, and further investi­ gation on the part of some of our city officers proved beyond all doubt that tlie machines, were accurate. After the election was over some of our friends, who were desirous of knowing whether or not the machines were correct in all their tallies, found that they were true in every respect. The first return that I received from the voting precincts was six minutes after the polls closed, and they were all in, as I remember, within thirty minutes after the polls were closed. I can see nothing whatever of anyone’s finding any objections to them at all, excepting that in some instances persons were somewhat doubtful of their ability to split tickets, but I believe our last election will show that there were about as many split tickets in this election as there were efei* before, and I feel sure that in any future elections such an objection will not *xist. Tney surely were verv much of a revelto U8 ln accuracy, and I think are just as much of an im­ provement and advancement over the old style of voting as the typewriter is over the pen and ink effort to maintain any business correspondence.

Clothcraft Clothes give you an appearance of style because they fit perfectly—a 34 inch waist measures 34 inches, first and last; the arm sizes do not cut or pinch because the tailors know how to cut, shape and sew to prevent these faults, and there are no wrinkles in the coats—where they don’t belong. It is details like these that show the superiority of CLOTHCRAFT. Its makers perfect the many points that most tailors overlook—they- know how to make clothes fit the man—the thin man and stout man-and do not depend upon the man to fit the clothes. Then add to this care the selection of always all wool material, the careful shrinking, the up-to-theminute designing and you have Clothcraft—the clothing which exhibits . real clothing knowledge, and which should lead you to be a Clothcraft believer. And CLOTHCRAFT wearers are not only well dressed, but they are not required to waste money. Thorough system and care have enabled the makers to keep their prices low.

I was amazed to find the great doors of the main entrance flung -wide, and in real alarm I ran-through •the hall and back to the library. | The nearest door stood open, and. as I peered In. a curious scene disclosed | Itself. A few of the large cathedral candles still burrfed brightly tn several Maces, their flames rising strangely in the gray morning light. Books had been taken from the shelves and scat-, tered everywhere, and sharp imple-1 xnents Aad cut- UK17 gashes In the 1 shelving. The drawers containing ■sketchph and photographs had been .pulled out and their contents thrown , j about and trampled under foot. The. house was as silent as a tomb, ' but as I stood on the threshold trying to realize what had happened, some­ thing stirred by the fireplace and I crept forward, listening, until I stood by the long table beneath the great chandelier. Again I heard a sound as of some animal walking and stretch­ ing. followed by a-moan that undoubt■edly was human. Then the hands of a man clutched the farther edge of the table, and slowly and evidently with Infinite difficulty a figure rose and the ^dark face of Bates, with eyes blurred and staring strangely, confronted me.1 . He drew his,body to its height anda . leaned heavily upon the table. 11 I snatched a candle and bent towardxj । him to make sure my eyes were not tricking me. “Mr. Glenarm; Mr. Glenarm;” he ex­ claimed in broken whispers. “It Is Bates, sir.” “What have you done; what has hap­ pened?” I demanded. He put his hand to his head uncer-' talnly and gasped as though trying to I gather his wits. ' He was evidently dazed by whatever had occurred, and I sprang round an£ i helped him to a couch. He would not’ 1 lie down but s»t up, staring and pas®: Ing his hand over his head. It was rapidly growing lighter, and I saw a E)le and black streak across his •' pls where a bludgeon of some sort iI ■truck him. I “What does this mean. Bates? Who', has been in Hie house?" ’ “It was early this morning,” he fal­ tered, “about two o’clock, I hfeard noises in tbe lower part of the house. 1 came down, thinking likely It was1 you. and remembering that you had 1 been sick yesterday—“ 1• Tbe thought of my truancy was no1 balm to my conscience just then. "As I came into tbe hall, saw lights1 tn the library. As you weren’t down' last night the room hadn’t been lighted' at all. I heard steps, and some one1, tapping with a hammer—“ . "Yea; a hammer. Go on!" ' It was, then, the same old story! The war had been carried openly into' th® house, but Bates.—just why should any one connected with the conspiracy’ 1 1 ’. taking the wound on his head. He spoke with a . painful difficulty that was not ‘assumed, I felt increasfngly sure, as he went on. "I saw a man pulling out the books and tapping the inside of the sheHea. He was working very fast. And the next thing I know he let in another man thiough one of tbe casements.— the one there that still stands a little open." . He flinched as ho turned slightly tc indicate IL. and his face twitched with pain. "Never mind that; tell the rest oi your story.” the ‘"Then ~I ran ih. ' grabbed ... one of... big candelabra from the table, and went for the neareat man. They . were about to begin on the chimney-breast —It was Mr. Glenarm’s pride In all the house.—and that accounts for my being there In front of the .fireplace, They rather got the best of me, sir." “Clearly; I see they did. You had a hand-to-hand fight with them, and bo Ing two to one—” > "No; there were tyro ofJ us,—don’tyou understand, two of us! There was another man who came running in from somewhere, and he took sides with me. I thought at first it was you, sir. The robbers thought so, too, for one of them yelled, ’Great Sod; Glen ann's come back!’ just like that But it wasn’t you. sir, but quite another person.” “That’s a good .story so far; and then what happened?” “I don't remember much more, ex­ cept . that some one soused me with water that helped my head consider ably, and the next thing I knew I was staging across the table, there at you." "Who were these men. Bates? Speak up quickly!" My tone was peremptory. Here was, I felt, a crucial moment in our rela­ tions. 'Well.’’ he began, deliberately, ”1 dislike to make charges against a fel­ low man. but I strongly suspect one 0/ the men of being—” "Yes! Tell the whole truth or it will be the worse for you.” "I very much fear one of them was Ferguson, the gardener over the way. I'm disappointed In him, sir.” "Very good; and now for the other one." “I didn’t get my eyes on him. I had closed with Ferguson and we were having quite a lively time of It when the other one came In; then the man who came to my help mixed us all up, —fee was a very lively person,—and what became of Ferguson and the rest of it I don’t know." There was food for thought In what he safd. He had taken punishment In defense of my property.—the crack on his head was undeniable,—and I could not abuse him or question bls veracity with any grace; noL at least without time for Investigation and study. However, I ventured to ask him one queatlon: "If you were guessing, shouldn’t you think It quite likely that Morgan was the other man?" He met my gaze squarely. "I think It wholly possible, Mr. Glenarm.” he reptied at once. "And the man who helped yon—who In the devH was he?” ’’Bless nie, 1 don’t know, sir!— He disappeared. I’d like tuighti’y to see him again." "Humph! Now you’d better do aomething tor ycur_bead.

What then ■hall satisfy our longings hearts? Simply this, that they who have fallen on the field of battle are not dead but alive as never before and as we gather around the shrines of our sainted dead -let each one feel that they died to the family ' that they might live to the nation. Great has been the sacrifice, but over their ashes we strew today garlands of gratitude, love and veneratlon-because we enjoy that which it cost their precious iives*to procure. In our ]>eace and property, our progress and happiness, our pleasant homes with our smiling children and charming wives,' our fertile fields, our beautiful landscapes, our laughing streams and magniflcient forests, dare we forget our undying dead? Nay, we,cannot .forget the men who pur­ chased our liberty and have given us the riches of the earth to enjoy. But once a year we must deck their graves with the flowers of true love and devotion for. they are the shrines of the nation, the Mecca to which every loyal citizen journeys to renew his vow to God and native land. Good deeds are immortal because thev are great in purpose. When we think of patriarch and king, philantrophist and statesman, captain and commander? and when or­ ator eulogizes and poet sings of their mighty deeds, let them not forget the lonely privateer who so often goes •unwept, unhonored arid unsung.’Nay, the soldier of the rank must be placed side by side with the great in the galaxy of the nation, because he is great anil has won universal dis­ tinction. for self abandonment is ever the law of true greatness. The sol­ dier of the rank has caused the name of God to be remembered in all gener­ ations by making human life less than public good. Self-sacrifice and not self-love has placed him among the truly great of earth and his name will hence forth be associated with the hero of every history and martyr of everyclime. • Good deeds are-immortal because thev cast a beneficent influence. The sun sets behind the western hills but leaves a trail of light to guide the weary traveller to his dis­ tant home: the tree falls in the forest and in the lapse of time is turned into coal and by its heat our firesides are made the brighter, so the good that men do lives after them, which is re­ peated and reflected in ail generations. Tell me not that the men who fought for freedom, are no more—that vast cloud of witnesses, that invisible army of brave spirits. Can they die who have achieved greatness? Are they dead who yet breathe in every mart of trade and act on every stage and ros­ trum? I repeat, are they dead who yet live in society and inspire thousands to nobler deeds 'and more heroic service? Nay, they can not die who yet speak. more eloquently than mortal tongue. Is Moses buried in Nebo’s moun­ tain? Has Elijah ascended in- a chariot of fire? Have Joseph’s bones been transplanted from Egypt to Caanan? Has Paul ceased to act, who unflinchingly stood on a ‘thousand moral battle-fields amid the roar of artillery, the groans of the dying and shout of the victorious, or is not the voice of our Lord heard today above the shout qnd clamor of the multitude and does not the life of Him who was pure, still pulsate thru every avenue of commercial, political and civic life?" Yea. a thousand fold more does the influence of these departed spirits move upon th»- countless thousand-, to the honor andglory.of Almighty God. Does not, 1 continue to ask. the life and character of Washington, of Adams, of Jefferson, of Madison, of John C. Calhoun, of Hamilton, of Patrick Henry and of James Otis re­ mind us of duty’s call, of unique statesmanship, of assembly’ room and legislative hall where resounded the immortal words 'Independence now and forever?' Friends. I labor for words to do justice to these history-makers of our country. Their characters are too great and noble to lie spoken of in these brief moments; there is too much in the contemplation df their lives, their services and the day of their death to be fully realized at once. Let us then approach the sacred memories of our dead with the profoundest reverence and after two score years mingle gladness with our tears because of the fact that they are not confined to the tomb, but rejoice thM they yet siieak in clearer tones than ever and continue to breathe their very life into every channel-of duty, into every ambition of loyalty and every sphere of activity. Truly such men do not cease to live. Can Greece ever forget her Leonidas and his faithful three hundred who dis­ cussed her liberty with their lives at Thennopolea? Can Italy ever forget her Cicero and immortal Dante? Can England ever forget her noble sons who fought her battles on field and rostrum, Nelson, Wellington, Pit and Gladstone? Tell me then when you visit Mt. Vernon, is Washington confined to that wreathed tomb? Is that name which blends with whatever belongsto liberty, prosperity and free insti­ tutions or our country, that name which inspired a whole army in the dark • days of the Revolution: that name which beamed amid the storms of adversity: that name which flashed like a meteor across the darkened sky and discomfited the enemy in their purpose, tell me is tire bearer of such a natfie dead? Tnuly, the steady hand which penned the Declaration of Indepen­ dence lies motionless; the lips that breathed its support are hushed; the eloquent voices that poured forth their deadly invectives against slavea, the world’s darkest period, are ent; the heart which throbbed so compassionately for a whole human race has ceased to beat and the strong arm which guided safely the ship of state thru the world’s greatest struggle for human rights lies brok­ en in the tomb at Canton. influent* red flag of anarchy over tbe stars and Stripes, neither let any man ever run the stars and stripes over the flag of lawlessness and distention.

Canton, O., May 27.—Mrs. McKinley died at 1:06 p. m. Sunday. There was no struggle—no pain. Mrs. McKinley never knew of the efforts made for days to prolong her life, nor of the solicitous hope against hope of her sister and other relatives and friends for her recovery, At the McKinJey home when death came there were present Secretary Cortelyou, Mr. and Mrs.,M. C. Barber, Mrs. Sarah Duncan, Mrs. Luther Day, Justice and Mrs. William R. Day. Dre. Portman and Rlxey and the nurses.* Tbe funeral arrangements sb far as made are that Dr. Buxton will have charge of the services, which are to be simple. They will be held at the Mc­ Kinley home at two o'clock Wednes­ day afternoon. It was announced that ■President Roosevelt and Secretary Loeb will arrive tn Canton Wednesday morning to attend the funeral serv­ ices. Vice President Fairbanks, who had often been a house guest of the McKinleys, is expected to reach here in time to attend the funeral service.

Mrs. McKinley's life of almost 60 years had been made familiar to the nation by the fact that more than half of it was a period of invalidism. Through all this, however, she showed a firm and unwavering belief In the career of her husband and by her cheering words. In spite of personal afflictions, encouraged him when there was darkness at hand. She believed that his star of destiny would never set until he had -become president of this land, and for more than a quarter of a century cherished that belief until her hopes were realized. After President McKinley's death, she exprest id a desire to join, him and prayed day by day that she might die. Later, however, she frequently told friends she desired, to live until the completion of the McKinley mausoleum, which Is,the gift ot tbe nation, and which is to be dedicated on Monument hill September 30 next.

Where the murder was committed, how many mten were , implicated, whether or not a secret society was in any way connected with it, remain questions as yet unanswered. The police on the strength of later Information revised their alarm for the three men wanted in connectldn with the murder.

They have been used in some cities upwards of ten years and at every place where purchased they have been used at every election and have given universal satisfaction. There is no precinct in the State of Michigan where Abbott Voting Machines are used that would consider for a moment going back to the old method of voting. . • . The main advantages attending the use of Abbott Voting Machines may be summed up as follows: First, ACCURACY, Second, SECRECY, Third, SIM­ PLICITY; Fourth, RAPIDITY; Fifth, ECONOMY; Sixth, HONESTY. Abbott Voting Machines will pay for themselves in the amount saved in election expenses in from six to eight years, and quicker where the village uses them, and they then become and continue for all time a source of revenue to tbe City using them. You know the result ten minutes after the close of the pools and know that they are absolutely correct. No man has ever lost any part of his ballot on an Abbott Voting'Machine. The machine prevents every voter from making any mistake. To prove the assertion that the machine will pay for itself in a few years we - quote tbe following from “THE LIVINGSTON DEMOCRAT” published at Howell, March 18th, 1907. “The new Abbott Voting Machine was used for the first time and gave universal satisfaction. In two minutes after the pools were closed the results was known on every man, and in fifteen minutes the reports were all made and the election board went home to supper. The ballots, clerks and gate keepers were not needed with the machine and no booths were put up, making a nice saving for the taxpayers, and the expense of holding the election being only $9.40 as against $35 for the same election last year, the saving being in putting up booths, extra men and extra time in counting, etc.” Ono year ago a question of the purchase of Abbott, Voting Machine was submitted to the electors of the city of Lansing, and we quote from the “State Republican'* of April 3, 1906, to show the result In that cltyl The citizens of Lansing yesterday voted to pur­ chase of the Abbott Voting. Machine Company the machines that were used at the pools. The final count showed that there were 3.628 for and 801 against the purchase. The voters in favor were in tbe majority in every precinct. The machines gave satisfaction throughout the city, an^ opinion seems to be unanimous that the machines are a great improvement, and the speed with which the returns could be learned especially pleased the citizens. Road'what the Mayor of the “Univarsity City** says about the Abbott Voting Machine: Ann Arbor, July 1st, 1904. Seven of the Abbtrtl Voting Machines have been in use at every election in Ann Arbor for the past five years. They have at every election given an absolutely correct record of every vote cast, and the results, which can be determined within a minute after the pools close, have always shown evdfy mauls vote accounted.for. It re­ duces one-half the expense of conducting an election, and renders a chance for a contest im­ possible. Arthur Brown, Mayor.

Gentlemen:— Referring to the Abbott Voting Machine, which we used at our last election, beg to say that tbe machines gave us perfect satis­ faction Sn every instance, and further investi­ gation on the part of some of our citv officers proved beyond all doubt that the machines were accurate. After the election was over some of our friends, who were desirous of knowing whether or not the machines were correct in all their tallies, found that they were true in every respect. The first return that I received from the voting' precincts was six minutes after the polls closed, and they were all in. as I remember, within thirty minutes after the polls were closed. I can see nothing whatever of anyone’s finding any objections to them at all, excepting that in some instances persons were somewhat doubtful of their ability to split tickets, but I ’.iMjlieve our last election will show that there were about as many split tickets in this election as there were ever before, and I feel sure that in any future elections such an objection will not exist. Thev surely were very much of a revefation to us in their accuracy, and I think are just as much of an im­ provement and advancement over the old style of voting as the typewriter is over the pen and ink effort to maintain any business correspondence. With kind regards, I beg to re­ main, Yours very truly, Wm. Thompson, Mayor.” Call.at the office of The News and get a Catalogue and read what scores of Townships and Cities -say about The Abbott Voting Machine. Simple Practical Sure Honest They Save Money FOR agree to .the flual adjournment resolu­ tion passed by the senate for a few days, it is the general opinion that the final work day will nut be laser than June 12. The result is a gen­ eral pushing . all along the line to either 'quicken or bury bills that are now lurking in committees. More lob­ byist* are now centering here than at any time since the opening of the session and no member is allowed to get lonesome. As usual the senate is-the last resort for most measures and that chamber is exceedingly pop­ ular. Lieut. Gov. Kelley has taken notice of that tact, and notified Ser­ geant-at-Arms Jone* that only persons entitled to the floor are to be ad­ mitted hereafter. Later he made the following formal announcement: “The president of the senate de­ sires to announce at this time. that he has called-the attention oi the sergeant-at-arms and his assistants to' senate rule No. 50 and ha* ordered that said rule be rigidly enforced throughout the balance of this ses­ sion ot the legislature. If the . strict enforcement of this rule is not suf­ ficient to correct an abuse, which has within the last week or ten days grown to be well-nigh intolerable, and which cannot fall to be observed even by the most inexperienced, the presi­ dent suggests that the matter be -taken under consideration by the sen­ ate and that sjme means be adopted' to protect itself against an embar­ rassment and annoyance to which the senate of the state of Michigan ought not to be subjected.” it is well understood that he is hitting at the numerous lobbyists who have been making the senate their head quarters. Wohld Amend Divorce Laws. When it comes to divorce, matters Senator Tuttle is a reformer. The Ingham senator has introduced In the senate a bill amending the divorce law so as to prevent hasty marriages of divorced persons. Senator Tuttle says that many times the public has been disgusted to learn that while a divorce was being signed by the judge for a woman some man has been in the county clerk’s office getting out a marriage license to marry her. it has come to such a pass, he says, that many lawyers do not wish to have their names appear on the court cal­ endars in connection with divorce cases. The bill of Senator Tuttle pro­ vides that In all divorce cases a de­ cree nisi shall be issued making it un­ lawful for either party to marry for a period of three months, when a final decree may be entered. In other words the senator proposes that a conditional decree of divorce shall be granted for a certain period which he has fixed in his bill at three months, and? that any divorced person marry­ ing within that period may be prose­ cuted for bigamy. The senator Is will­ ing that the period be extended to six months if the legislature is so dis­ posed, but he hopes a bill of the na’ture he has introduced may be passed. The Ingham senator has also intro­ duced a bill providing for the submis­ sion to tbe people of Shiawassee coun­ ty of the question whether they will authorize the payment of certain il­ legal claims tor erecting the court­ house at Corunna. In building the courthouse the supervisors exceeded the appropriation made by the people, and the moneys paid out In excess of the' appropriation will be a loss to certain officials and citizens, if the -claims are not legalized. Sparrow Bounty Fails. The house failed to pass the bill for restoring the bounty for killing English sparrows, largely because of disagreements between the friends of the measure as to what kind of a measure they wanted. The "sparrers” are doing more damage to the grain crops of the state every year, say the farmer members, and yet the friends of the bill did not seem to agree to­ gether as to what to do with the song­ less, useless, friendless little Britisher. So between the rows It received only 48 votes, and the laborers go forth as of old. chirping into the harvest. . Beet Sugar Industry. Labor. Commissioner McLeod has issued, from his department a. special bulletin relating to the beet sugar in­ dustry in Michigan, which . contains some interesting and valuable data. The first sugar factory was built* in this , state in 1898 and took care of a crop of beets, from 2,500 acres. There were nine factories in operation two years later, and a yield of 205,925 tons of beets was secured from over 37,000 acres. At the present time there are ten factories in operation. During the current year there were 85,350 acres of beets planted, which resulted in a yield pf 535,508 tons, During tbe past year, six of the fac­ tories were consolidated under one management, known as the Michigan Sugar company. The secretary of this company. F. R. Hathaway, re­ ported to Commissioner McLeod that the aggregate cost of these factories is over 111,000,000. There is over 115,000,000 invested in the business in this state, not Including the value of the 10,000-acre farm owned by the Owossu Sugar company, and the small farm owned by the Sebewaing Sugar company.- Practically all the beets grown In- the state are raised under the same form of contract The aver­ age sugar contents of^the beet* in the past year was 15% per cent, and that made the average price to the farmer 15.75 per ton for. his beets. On this basis the factories in actual operation paid to the farmers for the 1,020,000 tons of beets raised >5,865,000. The average production of Sugar is 240 pounds in a ton, and figuring on this basis, there were 244,800,000 pounds of sugar made In the state. The value of the sugar is about 4% cents a pound, making the crop worth about $10.464,000. The average yield of beets, per acre in this state is nine tort, which gives the farmer $51.75 per acre. As the cost of production is from $33 to $36, the profits are good when there is no failure ot the crop. The report from the Lansing factory, which belongs to the Owosso Sugar company, shows that in spite of the fact that the past has not been an ideal year for raising beets, yet the contractors supplied approximately 50,000 tons of beets to the factory, at an average price of $5.50 a ton. Twen­ ty-two growers were canvassed, all of whom stated that in their opinion beet growing is the most profitable crop the farmer raises. The average cost of growing the beets in the county was reduced something over a dollar an acre, the cost of delivering them to the factory about three cents more. Five out of the twenty-two growers canvassed reported that they do not view the growing of beets with any great favor. Anti-Cigarette Bill Passes. One of the .important bills of the session, prohibiting the use of cigar­ ettes or any other form of tobacco by boys, was passed by the senate, with only six votes against It. The bill as reported by the committee on public health prohibited the use of the weed by persons under 18 or minors attend­ ing any school or college. Some effort was made to change tho school regu­ lation, so that all under 18 only would be prevented. This was defeated. Senator Cady then moved to amend so that all under 21 would be pro­ hibited from smoking cigarettes, and penalties are fixed for furnishing such persons with, tobacco or allowing them to smoke on one’s premises. The bill will now go to the house. The fight there will be to have the age limit lowered on all the provisions, so as to affect only persons under 18. To Give People Their Say. The primary reformers will go to the people on the 40 per cent issue. A bill has been Introduced simultaneous­ ly by Senator Fyfe and Representative Dickinson, providing for submission of the question at tbe 1908 April elec­ tion in the following form: “Shall the electors of each political party in this state be permitted to nominate by direct vote its candidates for gov­ ernor and lieutenant governor without the requirement that 40 per cent of the votes cast by the party shall be necessary for either of such nomi­ nations?" Of the passage of this bill Want “Boxers” Put on Record. and tho adoption of the proposition by The administration Is going to make a desi>erate. fight to have the 40 per the people the primary reform mem­ bers are confident. cent provision, relative to the nom­ inations of governor and lieutenant House Increases Salaries. governor stricken from the primary By. a vote of 61 tn 18 the house | Jaw.

It is probable that a separate which provides for submitting that bill will be introduced to increase the provision of the law to a vote of the salary of the governor’s secretary to electors of the state at the next spring the same figure, as it is conceded that he earns the money. election. Refuse to Lower Limit. After considerable discussion in the senate Representative Tiffany’s bill allowing the incorporation of trust companies in cities under 10.000 popu­ lation on a capitalization of 1100,000, was defeated by a vote of 19 to 11. Tbe minimum capitalization now re­ quired is |300,000 and the consensus of opinion was that it would be danger­ ous to lower it bn~ffie ground that such a course would open the doors to speculators and would tend to lessen the stability that such institution* should have. To Check a Mt. Clemens Evil. The house passed the Nank bill pro­ hibiting surgeons and physicians to employ "cappers” and ’’runners’’ or solicitors, an evil sometimes com­ plained uf in ML Clemens, in Mr. Nank's district . No $3 Extra for Night Sessions. The senate passed the house bill al­ lowing supervisors three dollars per day for actual time spent in going to and from sessions. but struck out the provision allowing three dollars extra for night sessions. .

It Is an interesting fact that Santo Domingo la one of the few places In* the world where amber occurs In any considerable quantities. As Is well known, the bulk of the supply used in the arts comes from, the neigh­ borhood of Konigsberg, on the Baltic seacoast. There It occurs In the lower oligocene, and appears to have been depos­ ited originally In glauconitic .beds of a clayey nature, which was afterward eroded by wave action and the amber distributed,’ though much of it is taken from beds tn which It was originally entombed. . Amber is simply fossilized rosin, de­ rived apparently from certain conifer­ ous trees. The conditions under which it occurs in Santo Domingo do not appear to differ substantially from those on the Baltic seacoast. It is found near Santiago City, asso­ ciated with lignite,' sandstone and conglomerates. These beds probably belong to the oligocene formation and are found containing amber at a num­ ber of places on the north coast, as well as on both flanks of the Monte Crist! range. It also frequently oc­ curs In the streams flowing through these beds. The amber 1b usually In. ovate lump's, ranging from the size of a pea to a man’s fist, often flattened, dull on the exterior, being covered with a kind of brownish crust. None of these de­ posits has been studied scientifically, although several abortive attempts have been made to operate them for commercial purposes.—Cassler's Mag­ azine. WINTER LAYERS. You Will Not Have Any If You Negled the Hens. We cannot expect the hens to lay during) the coming winter If we neg­ lect them. They, in the first place, must be bred to lay. that Is, they must be hens that are recognized winter layers. Then It all depends upon our­ selves to produce results. We must have comfortable houses, with roomy scratching sheds. We must feed sen­ sibly—just right—and at the right time, and there will be no shortage of winter eggs, says Home and Farm. One of the most important things to consider next to food and feeding lathe scratching shed, and its Import­ ance cannot be considered too seri­ ously. . If you can keep the hens at work they will remain hearthy, and thrifty hens will lay at any season of the year. Make conditions tn winter like those of summer, and you wjll have but lltto complain ot on account of your hens. graniteware, fancy goods, handkerchiefs, hosiery, summer goods, and the prices are out of all reason— CHEAP—but good.

In cold weather the value of warm food is easily noticed, but the cost is more than the increased value when compared with the increase of the flow ot milk. Silage may be fed warm without much additional expense, and prove valuable. Cooking feed for cows was strongly recommended 40 years ago, says Farm and Home, but recent experiments have proved the fallacy of this doctrine. Cows have never been bred up to appreciate warm feeds. Actual experience In cooking feeds has shown that the un­ cooked feeds proved to be more di­ gestible. the average In different feeds Owing to the backward seaeon I will sell Summer goods at cut prices 36 Inch Indian Hoad 2Oc cut to. 15c Figured Organdies 15c cut to ..... 12J Figured Mulls 15c cut to12', Dotted Mulls 18c cut to15c Figured Dimities 12', cut tolOc Figured Batiste 12’, cut to too Lot of oxtords Small sixes worth'$1.15, cut W.

NUMBER 41 The blower belt at the Lentz .factory went on a strike last Friday and was so effective in its demonstration that it put the whole place out-of commis­ sion for a-lime. F. Eugene-Baker passed the latter part of last week with his family in the village and with hi* wife went to Lansing Friday to witness the celebra­ tion and incidentally to get a look at the chief executive of the nation The double funeral of Mr. and Mrs. Christopher Kill last Wednesday was attended by a large concourse of people. The services were held at the M. E. church, Rev. Way officiating. The remains were laid to rest in Lake-' view cemetery. While Mrs. Jeff Showalter was doing some papering at their farm southeast of the village last week Wednesday she fell from a chair on which she was standing and was injured quite seriously. Four ribs were broken and it is feared that she wa* infernally injured. Last Thursday H. G. Atchinson was 54 years old and hi* friends to the number of eighteen reminded him of the fact by calling at his home on North Main street in the evening. They left him a very pretty tobacco set as a remembrance of the occasion. Refreshments were served and a jolly good time was had by all. H. E.'Downing seems.to have some sort of cinch on the wool business of this part of the country, as he is buying a lot of it. Last week he bought a car load of Hinchman & Striker of Halting*, which he shipped on Wednesday. He has also bought O. M. Folger’s wool at Vermontville and shipped a car load of that yesterday. The 5:28 train, eabt-bound, Monday night was delayed here until after eight o’clock by the blowing out of a flue plug. The train left Nashville and had gone as far as the Lentz factory when the accident occurred. The train was pulied~baek to the depot where it remained until . the break could lie repaired. The through passengers were taken on the 6:30. The result of the election last Friday, although a light ’ vote was polled, gives the township board the impres­ sion that the people want the machines. There were 65 votes cast in this pre­ cinct, of which 42 were voted yes and 23 no. In tfafe Morgan precinct? there were but 9 votes cast; 7 yes and 2 no. The voting was done on the machine. The board has not had a meeting yet and have not yet decided whether they will buy the machines or not. A. R. Wolcott invented a stove lifter that lifted all right but let go again. He was not satisfied with the strength of the borrowed kind so he made a stout one. When the coal stove, which he had sold to Sum Hart­ ford. was about half way out of the house the lifter gave way and the stove went down in pieces—small pieces. A. R. will now turn his inventive ability in some other direction, for the "lifters" ruined the stove. Hon. C. L. Glasgow of Nashville, railway commissioner, has been mentioned as a candidate-for governor in MM)8. The Republicans of Michigan could do a lot worse than to nominate Mr. Glasgow. He is clean, honorable, capable and sincere. However, Barry county has selected him to succeed Congressman Hamilton, when the latter shall have been elected U. S. senator, or for any other reason re­ linquishes his seat In congress, and there are not a few Republicans in tiiis county who heartily agree with the choice.—Allegan Press. Farewell to the pathmasters, and time-honored road builders of the state. The wheels of progress have overtaken them and a new law signed by Gov. Warner will make them quit business after this year. The bill was Introduced by Senator Ely, a farmer, and reauires' that in every organized township all road taxes must be paid in money. Each township is made a single road district. Two fund* are . created, a road repair fund and a per­ manent improvement fund. All road work shall be done under the super­ vision of one township road inspector, who shall have one assistant. The town meeting annually shall designate the amount to be raised for the roads, but it shall not exceed 50 cents on each $100 valuation. This will make less work at town meeting, will bring about a more uniform system of road work and improvement, and distribute the burden of supporting the roads more evenly. In illustrating a point in his talk at the opera house last Sunday evening, Mr. Morrow told this story, which Ta good enough to be repeated: An old farmer had l>een bothered with the advance of civilization for a number of years and had successfully kept telephone and telegraph poles off his premises. One day he espied a couple of fellow's setting up a pole in his pasture lot and he straightway went out to put a stop to the work. He went up to the fellows and ordered them to stop the work. They argued with him for some time and finally one of them pulled out a sheet of paper from his pocket and shook it under the old man’s nose, saying, “We’ll show you the papers which give us the right to erect the poles here.” Tliis took the old man down and he turned and started back to the house. When he got to the barn he happened to think of a mad bull he had. in the barn and a happy thought struck him. He turned the bull in the field th.- men were working in and sauntered dowuj toward than. The bull was nQLk>H-g ir. discovering tiie men anjLttl once started after them. It was some distance to the fence and the men seeing the bull coming made a hasty retreat. It was a lively race and right when it was at the most ex­ citing point and when there was u qrest-ict* as to whether the men would make the fence before the bull caught them the old man piped out, “Why don’t you show him your papers?” �TWO KILLED IN COLLISION.

Deafneaa'.Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the aiseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf­ ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lin­ ing of the Eustachian tube. When this tube is. inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deaf­ ness-is the result, and unless the in­ flammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever: nine cases out of ten are caused by. Catarrh, which is nothing but an in­ flamed condition of the mucous sur­ faces. • We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure.

What the State Will Charge. • ■ Broadly speaking, the state will oharge that Haywood, conspiring with Moyer. Pettibone and Simpkins and others of the alleged “inner circle" of tbe Western Federation of Miners, plotted a campaign of terrorism that had for its purpose the removal by assassination of those opposed to tbe organization, and the retention and In­ crease of control and power within the organization. It will allege that the explosion at the Vindicator mine, the blowing up of the Independence depot, the murder of Light Gregory, a detective of Denver, the murder of Arthur" Collins, of Telluride, the al­ leged blowing up of Fred Bradley, of San Francisco, and the alleged at­ tempts on- the Ilves of former Gov. Penbody and Judges Gabbert and God­ dard,.of Colorado, were all acts In a rstagle great conspiracy to which the xnurder of Gov, Steunenberg was inci­ denial. It will be charged that Hay­ wood was tbe genius of and the strength behind the great plot, and that Steunenberg was added to the list 'because of his part during the labor troubles in north Idaho. It will be alleged that Haywood and .hta associates, standing and working in the background, planned the long list of crimes and sent Harry Orchard and Steve Adams' as hired execu­ tioners. Orchard to Testify. The state's testimony will -begin with a rehearsal of the Caldwell tragedy In which Frank Steunenberg was blown to death by.a bomb on the might of December 30. 1905,-and then tbe presence at Caldwell of Harry ■Orchard and John L Simpkins, a •»ember of the executive board of the Western Federation of Miners, will be shown. After that Harry Orchard, who autunlly $iurdere0 Steunenberg. will be connected with the scene and crime, and then Orchard will be called to the stand to retell the confession which it Is alleged he made to Detec­ tive McParl••.nd. After that will come rhe state's effort to corroborate the Orchard story and to clinch by other ..testimony the general part of the Wesfiern Federation of Miners and the -particular part of William D. Hay -wood alleged in connection with the anurdrr of Frank Steunenberg. Attorneys for the prosecution ex­ press satisfaction with the jury, but counsel for Haywood, while believing the jurors honest of purpose, call attentkns to the fact that none of them has any natural kinship to labor organlzatlons. -KILLED IN AUTO SMASH.

' MALICIOUS FALSEHOODS NAILED Statement* Proving' the Untroth of the Stories In Circulation Re­ garding the Liquor Business In nailing the.attention of the public to th© several article* that follow, I desire to state that my patience ha* been exhausted and I have.decided to bring before the'public notice the true facts relative to me and my business. It will be noticed that there are some who are in a position to know what they are talking about and some who are not. You will know after reading through these articles that a great in­ justice has been done me, but 1 am glad to l>e able to show by these state­ ment* that it all originated from an absolutely untruthful source, and that every statement circulated to my detri­ ment, came from enemies of whom I am justly proud. I promise further retractions in some future edition of the News if I hear any more reports of similar character, dr there will Ixj warrants issued upon the refusal of the retractions. All I ask is some definite statement made by. somehperson whom I can locate and positively prove to be the author of the statement. * . I desire to thank from the bottom of my heart the many friends who have kindly assisted me in locating the ori­ gin of the statements published here­ with; also for the articles written for this publication in which they so wil­ lingly and fearlessly define their posi­ tion. I also desire to thank my. kind pat­ rons who have not been influenced by the malicious falsehoods of those whose only desire was my undoing by ’ any method within their power. I hope that these statemants will satisfactorily clear up any wrong im­ pression which any sincere person might have had relative to the matter over which there was so much discus­ sion at the 11st vill ige election in re­ gard to me and my position upon the liquor question. I ’will add that the whole matter was precipitated just at this time by the Insinuating remarks made Sunday night at the opera house by Billy Smith, and whose full retraction ap­ pears l>elow.

I had no desire whatever 'to hurt their business and hope no­ body will so construe ray remarks. W. A. Smith. Any statements that I have made relative to the manner or quantity of ■liquor sold by Von Furniss were made without any positive knowledge of their being true. And any insinua­ tions I have made against him or his business are unfounded in fact. F. H. Raiuck. I gladly give my statement that I have been intimately acquainted with Von Furniss, liotii in a personal and business wr.y, besides having worked for him in tlie store for about seven months last year and am positively in a position to know that the statements reported by his enemies relative to his selling liquor arc unqualifiedly false Jind without foundation. J. E. Bergman. I have been around Von Furniss' •drug store more by far than any other store in Nashville, and I have yet to see the first sign of any liquor selling that would lead me to believe there was s single atom of truth in the state­ ments made by Mr. Furniss’ enemies. Any sincere person anxious to know the facts surely do Mr. Furniss a great injustice by believing for a moment .any of these reports. In my opinion . Mr. Furniss has at least attempted to ■ do as much as any other person in Nashville in trying to regulate the improper sale of liquor and to gv’ properly Qualified bondsmen upon liquor bonds during the three years fee was a member of our council. This statement is made willingly and unin­ fluenced by any other motive' than justice. J. E. Lake. I desire to say that I am more inti­ mately familiar with Von Furniss' store and his method of conducting it than with any other institution in Nashville, as I have worked for him from two to three weeks every Decem­ ber for the last three years, besides frequenting the store a great deal dur­ ing tlie whole year, and I have never seen or known of anything that would warrant the malicious falsehoods that are told by his enemies. Dan Garlinger. My work as vetrinarian necessarily takes me to a drug store a great deal, and I am sure that I have frequented Von Furniss’ drug store more than any other business place in Nashville. I am there nearly all day every Sat­ urday and a great deal during the week, and believe I am in a good posi­ tion to know something of how the business is conducted, and I know the statements reported by his enemies are without one particle of foundation and lielieve they are made to mislead honest people who may not be in a position to know tlie truth.

The piano pounding continued and I waited for what seemed an inter­ minable time. It wm growing dark and a maid brought lamps. I took a book from the table. It vm "The Ltts of Benvenuto CeiimF and Marian Dev ereux was written on the fly leaf, by unmistakably the same band that had penned the apology tor OBvla's per­ formances. I saw In Che dear, flowing lines of the signature, in their lack of superfluity, her own. eaaa, grace and charm; and, in the deeper stroke with which the “x” wm crossed, I fait a challenge, a readiness to abide by con­ sequences once her word wm given. Then my own Inclination to think well of her angered me. and I dropped the book impatiently as she crossed the threshold. "I am sorry to have kept you wait­ ing, Mr. Glenarm. But this Is my busy hour." "I shall not detain you long. I came.” —I hesitated, not knowing why I had come. She took a chair near the open door and bent forward with an air of atten­ tion that was disquieting. She wore black—perhaps to fit-her the better Into the house of a somber Sisterhood. I seemed suddenly to remember her from a time long gone, and the effort of memory threw me off guard. Stod­ dard had said there were several Olivia Armstrongs; there were cerj tainly many Marian Devereuxs. The silence grew intolerable; she was wait­ ing for me to apeak, and I blurted: *T suppose you have come to take charge of the property." - “Do you?" she asked. "And you came back with the execu­ tor to facilitate matters. I'm glad to see that you lose no time." “Oh!” she said lingeringly, as though she were finding with difficulty th® note in which 1 wished to pitch th® oonversation. Her calmness was mad­ dening. "I suppose you thought it unwise tc wait for the bluebird when you had berailed me into breaking u promise, When 1 was trapped, defeated,—" Her elbow on the arm of the chair, her hand resting against her cheek, the light rippling goldenly In her hair, uer eyes bent upon me Inquiringly, mournfully.—mournfully, as I had seen them—whereT^-once before! My heart la<l>ed In that moment, with that thought. ’ "1 remember now the first time,” I said, more angry than I had ever been before In my life. "That Is quite remarkable.” she said, hnd nodded her head ironically. “It was at Sherry's; you were with Pickering—you dropped your fan and he picked It up, and you turned toward me* for a moment. You were in black that night; it was the unhappi­ ness in your face, in your eyes, that made me remember." I was intent upon the recollection, eager to fix and establish it. "You are quite right. It was at Sherry's. I was wearing black then; many things made me unhappy that night.” Her forehead contracted slightly and she pressed her lips together. ”1 suppose that even then the con­ spiracy was thoroughly arranged," I said tauntingly, laqghmg a little per­ haps. in my brutal impulse to wound her, to take vengeance upon her. She rose and stood by her chair, one hand resting upon it. I faced her; her eyes were like violet seas. She spoke very quietly. "Mr. Glenarm. has it occurred to you that when I talked to you there Id the park, when I risked, unpleasant gossip in receiving you jn a house where you bad no possible right to be, that I was counting upon something,—foolishly and stupidly.—yet counting upon It?" “You probably thought I was a fool,” I retorted. "No,”—she ’smiled slightly. ”1 thought—I believe I have said this to you before b—that you were a gentle­ man. I really did. Mr. Glenarm. I must say it to justify myself. I relied upon your chivalry.—I even thought, when I played being Olivia.—that you had a sense of humor. But you are not the one and you haven't the other. I even went so far. after you knew per­ fectly well who I was. to try to help you—to encourage you to prove your­ self the man your grandfather wished you to be. And now you com® to me in a shocking bad humor.—I really think you would like to be Insulting. Mr. Glenarm. if you could.” "But Pickering,—you came back with him; he is here and he is going to stay! And now that the property be­ longs to you. there is not the slightest reason why we should make any pre­ tense of anything but enmity. When you and Arthur Pickering ’stand to­ gether I take the other side of the bar­ ricade! I suppose chivalry would re­ quire me to vacate, so that you may enjoy at once the spoils of war," l stormed with growing hear "I fancy It would not.be very diffi­ cult to eliminate you as a factor in the situation." she remarked icily. "And I suppose, after the unsuccess­ ful efforts of Mr. Pickering’s allies to assassinate me. as a-mild form of elim­ ination. one would naturally expect nie to sit calmly 'down and wait’ to be shot in the back. But you may tell Mr. Pickering that I throw myself upon youa mercy. I have no other home than this shell over the way, and I -beg to be allowed to remain until—at least—the bluebirds come.” “I quite sympathize with your re- TWO KILLED IN COLLISION.

One of the traditional stories of the town of Fairchild. Conn., recounts a wild dash from the pulpit made by a worthy and beloved pastor of the Episcopal flock, Dr. Labarre. It was on a Sunday more than a hundred years ago. The service had been read. The prayers said, the hymns sung and the parson began hie sermon. As he proceeded his gestures become more energetic. .He brought his right hand down with great force. Then he turned pale, cleared the pul­ pit stairs at a bound, dashed out the church door and ran toward the pond a short distance away. The congregation followed In bewil­ dered pursuit, and saw their venerable pastor with flying robe rufih Into the water until it came to bls neck. ^Then turning round he faced his astonished audience and said: “Dearly beloved brethren. I am not crazy, as no doubt many of you think, but yesterday at the drug store I bought a bottle of nitric acid and care­ lessly left it tn my pocket today. "My last gesture broke the bottle. I knew the suffering the acid would cause when it penetrated my clothing, and rushed for the water to save my­ self pain." * He drew several pieces of glass from bln pocket in witness of the tale. Then he dismissed the company and hurried home.—Youth’s Companion. FOUR NEW YORK WOMEN FILE CLAIM . FOR THE >2.497. LEFT BY DANIEL JACKSON FOR BROTHER’S CHILDREN. Romotlc History of the Maple Grove Recluse Who Died . In 1903. We recently mentioned tbe fact that Lyman J. Wilson of Nashville, Kdminlstrator of the estate of Daniel Jackson, the Maple Grove hermit, who died four years ago, had deposit­ ed 42,41*7 with County Treasurer Cock, as provided by law, liecause he was unable to find the children of John Jackson, brother of Daniel, to whom this money was willed. Mr. Wilson knew that John Jackson, when last heird about, lived in New York City. He advertised for John's heirs in the want columns of the papers of that city, but could not get trace of them. Therefore the money was paid over to the county treasurer as provided by law. The attorney general of Mich­ igan, a short time since, gave notice to County Treasurer Cock that the state of Michigan claimed this 92,497, as under the law the money of an un­ claimed estate reverts to tbe state. But*the past week Attorney Fred W. Walker has filed a claim for this 42,497 in behalf of Mary G. Osborn, Anna Goodrich and Ghersteln' Mead, daughters of John Jackson, and Vir­ ginia Jackson, only daughter of Eugene Jackson, a’son of John Jack­ son. These heirs live in the city of New York. From Mr.’ Walker’s statements there would seem to be lit­ tle doubt of these being the rightful heirs of the brother of Daniel Jack­ son. Mr. Walker has been searching for them a long time. His first clue was an old card. In 1898 Daniel Jackson, then pld, and feeling the in­ firmities of age. came to W. W. Potter,'of this city, whom he knew well, and asked him to help find the children of bis brother John. He brought a card which read “Thos. K. Alford, with John Jackson, importer and jobber of cloths, cassimiers, vest­ ings and goods for men’s wear. No. 61 Lispenard St., N. Y.”’ Mr. Potter tried to find the. heirs of John Jack­ son, writing several letters. Before he ’ learned anything’ tangible, Mr. Jackson called again, and .told, him •he guessed it was no use, and not to bother any more. Mr. Potter put the card away with the tiles in the case. With tins card as his only clue, Mr. Walker set to work. He succeeded in locating Thos. Alford, jr., in New York. Through him he learned of the visit of Alford, sr., to Daniel Jackson over forty years ago, at which time Imj left .this card we have mentioned. Through infonnation fur­ nished bv him. .Mr. Walker finally ob­ tained the name? of John Jackson's heirs and their location. The daugh­ ters say they remember distinctly’ that before their father died, a brother in Michigan used in the spring to send them maple sugar. Alford, jr.. re­ membered that his father was sent to visit Daniel Jackson at his Maple Grove farm forty vearsago, at the re­ quest of John Jackson, by whom Al­ ford, sr., was employed. From what can be learned, Daniel Jackson and John came- from Glas­ gow. Daniel's weakness was a fond­ ness for liquor. He went to Califor­ nia in 1849. This did not improve his h^jits. John Jackson was of a differ­ ent type, and became a prosperous New York merchant. Daniel returned to New York from California. John, to help his brother, decided to put him on a farm. It is claimed he came to Michigan in 1853 with his brother Daniel, and succeeded in locating him on the Maple. Grove farm, where he lived for fifty years all alone, and where he finally died. He was a very peculiar man, very kindly disposed, wholly inoffensive and very intelli­ gent. ’ He had travel let! around the world a good Heal in his younger days, and was blessed with a good memdry. But there was much of tbe romatic in Daniel Jackson’s history. He evi­ dently appreciated his brother’s help, for after making a few bequests his property was to go to John Jackson's children.—Hastings Banner/ "Drowned Rivers." In nearly every case these natural bottles are what the geographer calls "drowned rivers." That is to say, the coastal lands in the vicinity have subsided, allowing tbe sea to flow In and convert what was a lowland valley Into a partly inclosed marine area. Divers have gone to the bottom of New York bay and have found there the ancient bed of the Hudson river, as that stream flowed before the mouthward part of its valley subsided into the sea. The old bed reaches through the narrows and well out into the floor of the Atlantic. Of course, as the sea water entered the sinking valley, any hills rising thereabout would become islands, in the new order of things. And there we find them to this day, in almost any of these inclosed in­ lets.—St- Nicholas. Perforated Balls. Although the assertion recently made by an Italian sea captain that the power of sails was increased by their being perforated was ridiculed. It has just been proved that he was right His theory was that the force of the wind cannot fairly take effect on an inflated sail because of the cush­ ion of immovable air that Alls up the hollows. To prevent the creation and presence of that cushion, he pierced his sails with many holes, through which the wind blew, the balance of the air pressure striking against the canvas and exercising Its full ef­ fect Several experiments have been made on these lines, and the results are declared to have been eminently satisfactory.

The president spokf Jn the Georgia ceremonies from the reviewing stand and in the ’ afternoon addressed the convention of the 'National Editorial association in the exposition auditorium. On both occasions he was given an enthuslastic welcome. He visited the Georgia building, the New York building and the negro exhibit. Pride iri Kinship to Georgia. The president. In beginning his ad­ dress, expressed pride in his relation­ ship to some of the founders of the -colony of Georgia and gratification at the fact ■ that the exposition build­ ing of the state Is a replica of his grandfather’s house at Roswell, Ga., where his mother i>assed her youth. After felicitating the south on its grand material progress. Mr. Roose­ * volt continued: * ’’In the south, as everywhere through the union, we need to see a . good education given free to ail chil­ dren, no matter what may be their . race or color. Nor can we wisely per­ mit this education to be of a merely llterary type. More and more' we are growing to realize that there must be an education of the hand us well as of the head. There must be agri­ cultural and Industrial colleges, and. above all, schools in which there can lie elementary preparation for agri­ culture and Industry. These schools for technical training will hold a great place In the future in fitting our citizens for doing their economic duties in the best possible shape. Strikes at Child-Labor Evil. - “It is a matter for congratulation that there is such a steady increase of interest in the southern slates in everything nert'alnlng to children. This has already markedly sbo’wn it­ self, and 1 hope will still more mark­ edly show itself in the future, in war­ ring against the evil of child labor In factories.

Insurance Companies Affected., , Insurance companies and those car­ rying large fire risks In Michigan are deeply Interested in a decision of the supreme court which prohibits the use of the so-called, co-lnsurance rider tn policies. Tbe decision will necessi­ tate rewriting a large number of poli­ cies and compels companies to aban­ don the use of the rider. Ever since the enactment of the so-called anti­ company co-lnsurance law of Michigan In 1895, fire insurance companies have been using in this state the following percentage value clause: ’’la consid­ eration of a reduced rate of premium It is hereby agreed that, in case of loss this company will pay only such proportion of the loss as the sum here­ by Insured bears to 80 per cent or oth­ er agreed rate of the value of the property Insured, but in no case shall State to Send Delegates. this company be liable to a greater The following have been appointed proportion of any loss than the by Gov.

I I - Alm Should Be to Keep the Animals as Clean as.Possible. ■ Where hogs are maintained and fed out of doors all seasons of the year it is not only advantageous but very es­ sential for the promotion of best sani­ tary condition, that some arrangement be completed whereby the feeding may be conducted upon clean, whole­ some basis. The farmer .who feeds his hogs anywhere there Is a dry place about the hog yard, is likely sobner or later to notice an unthrifty appearance among some members of his animals. Hogs when maintained in pen out of doors will not do theii best unless they have some perma­ nent and sanitary feeding place whereby they can receive their meals regularly and in an acceptable dondition. We handle all.our hogs In yards dur­ ing' the entire year and find with proper arrangements we are able to keep our animals cleaner and health­ ier than under any other system of management, says a correspondent of Prairie Farmer. We find that by pro­ viding proper conveniences for feed­ ing we can maintain a larger number of hogs upon our farm without loss ■or disease. . The diagram herewith shows one of our.foeding platforms. This platform The Feeding Platform. has been in use for over five years and has repaid for itself many times. The platform was made b> laying down oak 4x4’s and pranking over with pine two-inch stuff of fair qual­ ity. The trough Is V-shape made of 2x8-inch stuff. The platform fronts up to a fence whereby a slanting board was fitted so that all the feed­ ing is done without interfering with the hogs while eating. Slat? four Inches wide are firmly nailed nine Inches apart to prevent the hogs from getting into the trough. The trough is so arranged that with a broom it can be thoroughly cleaned before each feeding. HARVESTING CORN WITH SWINE. It Is Economical and Wise Under Cer­ tain Conditions. In these days of scarce and expen­ sive labor, where the harvesting of crops can be done by animals, this method of handling them shoulf be given due attention. The practice of hogging down edrn, as it is called. Is growing in favor. But the present practice can possibly be Improved upon. If some short variety of corn were grown which produces ears abundantly, and if a crop of pumpkins were grown at the same time in the corn, the combination should be a good one. The corn being low of stat­ ure would not hinder the growth of the pumpkins as tab corn would. There Is a decided advantage In grazing or feeding off these two to­ gether, says Orange Judd Farmer. One advantage is: that the pumpkins feed well along with the corn for pigs that are being fattened, and espedaily along with new corn. They ex­ ercise a healthful influence on the digestion. A second benefit Irthe in­ creased nutriment obtained from an acre bj thus growing the two crops together, and a third benefit resulting is the harvesting of the pumpkins as well as the corn, without labor. When growing this crop ft will pay well to have the land well onrlcbed. Pumpkins, if they are to grow well, tfiust have a rich soil. The yields are usually proportionate to the high con­ dition of. fertility in the land. vogue among scientists In the culti­ vation of the soil. This is a mis­ take, says Farmers' Review. Agri­ cultural science is gaining among our farmers and is destined to gain more rapidly as the years go on. It was natural that at first the progress should be slow. A body of 5,000,000 persons is not to be moved in a hurry. It is an aggregation of hu­ man beings so rast that no one can conceive of Its real import. It must be remembered, too, that at first the means for affecting this great mass and /moving it were very meager. When our agricultural col­ leges were organized there were few men capable of acting aa instructors, for the universities of the country had not been fitting men to teach ag­ ricultural science. In many cases men had to be taken out of the fields and the creameries to teach in tbe col­ leges. While they had a great deal of practical information, they had not studied systematically the mass of agricultural information that had been accumulated, and were but poorly^prepared to teach it. It is only within the past 16 years that most of our agricultural colleges have been well enough equipped to become aggressive. Now, however, the material for teachers and instructors is abundant and great work is .being done. That the farmers are being reached Is demonstrated by the increasing attendance at farmers' meetings'and in the agricultural col­ leges. Information Is being spread rapidly by word of mouth. Complaint is made that the bulletins issued by the stations are not widely read by the farmers. This is because it takes something of a student to take liter ary matter and really absorb it. mak Ing it into something having force. But in each locality are a few men that have this ability and they spread the information by word of mouth and by example. There are numerous factors that are operating to bring about a better con­ dition in the not distant future. One of these factors is the taking of more interest In agriculture by. the men that have money and at the same time have a fair knowledge of farm­ ing matters. These men are buying farms and are putting into practice on them modem methods of agriculture. The farms so handled become object lessons. Other farmers follow the lead of the most, enterprising, unless they lack the will and the ability to learn. There are same of the latter class, but they are destined to disap­ pear during the next generation or two, for the reason that others will buy their farms, which will -have- liecome unprofitable to the present owners. • ■ It Is becoming increasingly difficult to farm without thought and still make money. Farmers must make more money from their farms to-day than they used to. because they have more expenses. The expenses cannot be avoided, and must increase as pop­ ulation becomes denser and the price of land higher. With the increase of knowledge of how to handle land, farmers will be able to balance the increasing expenses with increasing returns. Martin Hannan, of Joy street. Orange, has a dog which has devel­ oped the supposedly human trait of jealousy to such a degree that he will eat grass to spite his enemy, says the New York Press. The dog, a big. 50pound brindled bull terrier, Is ordi­ narily chained in the back yard. Close beside him a peaceful old gander Is penned in with wire fencing. The gander Is the last of a flock, and has survived as a pet. The dog is so inordinately jealous of tbe gander that If any one goes up and talks to tt be will bark angrily. If the visitor adds to the Insult by giving the poor old bird something to eat, the terrier win leap the fence like lightning, snatch the food and gobble It down. To such incredible lengths will his jealousy go In this respect that the neighbors have test­ ed it by throwing grass to the gander. The dog will seize the grass and ac­ tually swallow it in his anxiety to keep It from the gander. The gander gives one lamentable squawk as he sees the dog leap the fence, and then retires shudderingly to a corner. Bird Criminals. A subject which has exercised me this summer has been as to what bird It is with a bill seemingly, smaller than a jay's which plunders other's nests, breaking and sucking the eggs, says a writer In Country Life. In-one small piece of hedge I found one blackbird's and two thrushes' nests all treated In the same way, the three showing among them the wreck­ age of eleven eggs all similarly pierced and emptied. The missel thrush has been suspected of the offense and in this case I should suppose it to be the missel thrush if it were not that of a pair of butcher birds nested in the same hedge. It is perhaps unjust to suspect the butcher bird on no better evidence than its mere proximity to the scene of the crime and it may be. questioned if the shrike would dare to rifle the nest of either a blackbird or a thrush.

It is a strange thing, but nevertheless the truth, that there are hundreds of farmers in Barry county who do not have, a bank ac­ count. They keep their money at home buried away sdmewhere or hidden in a teacup. There are some who conceal it in their mat­ tresses. It is dangerous to keep your money in that way. You ought to place it where you know it is safe. Put it in the bank. Suppose your house would burn up while you are away from home."" You would lose your money. Besides, when you keep your money in your house it can be ■ easily stolen. Some people imagine that when they hide their money they are safe from rob-, bery. This is a very mistaken notion. If a person wants to steal, he usually watches and knows right where to go. Besides you never can tell on whom you can rely, or whom may have de­ signs on your money. The best way to do is to put it in a savings hank and have a regular bank account. The Farmers & Merchants bank is making a specialty of do­ ing business with farmers, and it is endeavoring to encourage the farmer to employ better business methods in taking care of his money. Next time you are in Nashville just step in and get ac­ quainted. This bank also pays 3 per cent interest compounded quarterly on savings deposits. Why don’t you take advantage of this good rate of interest, and make your money earn you some­ thing instead of keeping it hidden at home? It is much better to do business with a good reliable bank like the Farmers & Merchants bank than to keep your money at home. OFFICERS G. C. C. H. A. TRUMAN . . . President W.

ALFRED WAY live. First, I look for a moment at the path of dissipation, the saloon with all of its associations £hd kin­ dred vices. I regret that I must ever speak of these things before an in­ telligent audience, as they are so of­ fensive And debasing. But it s.eems that there is a charm about them which draws many of our brightest young people into their clutches. Truly, there are many attractions and Eallies in these gilded dens of vice, ut behind them bide the erhss bones and skull. One Jook at the wrecks on either side of this river of desolation, of the suicides, insanity, poverty, ignorance and destitution; of the jails, asylums, the almshouses and prisons: of the men of genius wrecked: of the helpless womanhood whose heart’s blood drip into their daily drudgery, and of children crying for bread, will convince any one that this Is not the way of life but of death and of dark ­ ness and woe. I trust that none here will ever choose this for real life. But there is another form of living which appeals to many as real life. It is the getting of wealth. The motto here is ‘Of all thy getting, get money’, and as Eggleson makes the. old lady in the HOosier School Master say; •Get a plenty while you are getting, saysT. Now I would not decry the accumulation of wealth, nor criticise the wealthy. Both are a blessing to the wobld. The wrong comes in nar­ rowing "our lives to this narrow sphere.

Officials of the United States post offices at San Francisco and Denver produced original records showing that in August, 1904, a registered let­ . ter was sent under the name of "J. Wolf” from the address of Pettibone's store In Denver, to "J. Dempsey" at the Golden West hotel In San Francis­ co. Orchard swore that he stayed at the Golden West hotel under an alias that was either "Dempsey" or "Hogan," that Pettibone used the aliases of "Wolf" and "Pat Bone*. ’and that un­ der the name of “WolF' Pettibone, in the month mentioned, sent him a reg­ istered letter containing 1100. to pay his expenses while engaged on the Bradley murder. Adams and Haywood Connected. Police officials of Ogden established the arrest, there In June. 1903, of Steve Adams and A. T. Williams. They were sealed up in an east-bound car loaded with fruit, and when therested tor trespass each had a brace of revolvers. When released through the Influence of a detective, who was a brother Maaon of Adams, they went straight to the office of the West­ ern Union and sent a telegram to Haywood In Denver. The defense headed off an attempt to get the contents of the telegram before the judge, but the state Indi­ the cated that It would return to '* charge later and further develop tinIncident when It has broadened its foundation. Adams Produced In Court. When, the Ogden testimony was traduced Stove Adams was brought Into court under guard to be Identified. Adams seemed in a defiant humor and walked to a point directly In front of the jury and gazed steadily at the witness confronting him. Besides its work on the PettlboneOrchard and Haywood-Adams lines the state produced several witnesses who confirmed features of Orchard’s story aq to the Bradley affair, the first - descent into the Vindicator mine wUh the object of doing violence, the final success of the Vindicator plot and the circumstance^ under which Detective Lyte Gregory was killed.

Show Contempt for Manifesto. News of the dissolution reached the St. Petersburg papers too late for their last editions, but the public was quickly informed through extras and great posters sent out by the police at alt street corners, containing the ukase announcing the dissolution, and the imperial manifesto. Little knots of readers clustered around these tbe whole day, atten­ tively perusing the manifesto, the phrasing of which was calculated to appeal to the patriotism of the lower classes. Little enthusiasm or ex­ citement. however, was evoked, and many of the readers, as they turned away, spat silently upon the ground as a sign of their deepest contempt City Is Well Guarded. Though Gen. Dracheffsky. prefect of police, was nominally in charge, the provisions for public safety were virtually in the bands of Gen.

The military was chiefly disposed in the Industrial section, but aa strong force occupied the Taurlde palace vicinity. Nobody, not even douma officials, was allowed to enter the precincts of the palace. A laconic notice was pouted on the’ gates announcing that "former deputies” would receive their salaries upon application to tbe chan­ cellory of the empire. Nine Deputies Arrested. During the night nine of the 16 social democratic leaders, specifically named tn the government Indictment, Including Prince TzertzereteH and M. Dzhaparidge, were taken’ Into cus­ tody. The seven others succeeded In eluding the elaborate provisions made for their arrest. Two secret service officers, with signed warrants, had been assigned to follow each deputy and serve the warrants as soon as the ukase was promulgated. They were instructed to follow their men to the frontier if necessary, but the deputies succeeded In making their escape. Among those who have not yet been arrested are M. Ozel and M.

For particulars consult ny ticket sjreut ot tbe MICHIGAN CENTRAL "THE NIAGARA FALLS ROUTE” ► ► ► I ► ► ► I Lansing. — The big appropriatin'.! bills have been agreed upon by the house committee on appropriatlona, leaving but half a dozen small ones to be passed out Yielding to the tremendous pressure that has been brought to bear in the interests of increasing the university tax instead of providing specific appropriations for-building purposes, the committee decided to let the senate bill, stand, which increased the tax from one- ■ fourth to three-eighths of a mill. This will give the university the Immense sum of >649,286 a year. Through the efforts of Representative Abrams the college of mines.at Houghton will get the neat sum of >248,800 for the next two years. The maintenance Item is >60,000 a year, and In addition >43.800 is provided for a central heating plant the first year, and In the second >75,000 will be available for a new’library and mineralogical building for which representative Adams has been work­ ing. The Michigan Agricultural col­ lege will receive >173,000 a year, the committee deciding to remove the limit on the one-tenth mill tax. The tuberculosis sanitarium at Howell asked for >140,000 and the committee decided to cut It to >40,000.* The ap­ propriation for the state highway de­ partment was cut from >280,000 to >200,000. Commissioner Earle wanted >250,000 for good roads bounty, but the committee reduced this to >90,000 a year, and the >30,000 for office ex­ penses was cut to >20,000. Earle's plan for a "prison in tbe upper penin­ sula to employ convicts to crush rock for good roads seems to be dead. Important Bills Pau Senate. The senate committee on judiciary reported the Simpson- state-wide Juve­ nile court bill, which was passed. The new Simpson military bill was also passed. The bill which allows money loaning companies to be reorganized under the banking law was passed. It is explained that the money loaning company bill does not, as some feared, i allow such companies to organize as banks under less than-the usual capi­ tal. The bill merely allows such com­ panies to reorganize under the gen­ eral banking law, with all tbe obliga­ tions as to capitalization, etc., which the general banking law now pre­ scribes. The military bill as It stands provides >40.000 a year to be raised for state armories on the basis of >10.000 to a company, but does not provide for promotion by seniority as <nne members of the military board wanted. The term of the rifle, inspec­ tor is made four years instead of for life, members of the military board and their assistants will hereafter re­ ceive grade pay only during camp and the quartermaster general is made ab­ solutely responsible for the issuance of military transportation and the dis­ cretionary power claimed by -certain subordinates is. wiped out. Commission Wants Authority. There is resting In the hands ot the bouse committee on taxation an amendment to the tax commission law giving the commission authority to review assessments which it had prior to 1905. This authority was super­ seded by the Galbraith law^and when the latter was declared unconstitu­ tional it took away the general power of the commission to review assoaaments and left no method of equaliza­ tion between the railway properties and other property of the ^tate. At­ torney for the state in the' tax ,sulta are anxious that the legislature should re-enact the clause giving the commis­ sion this power, as they fear that a continuance of present conditions may seriously involve the state, if the rail­ ways can show systematic injustice. It is perhaps a peculiar condition that while the railways want the amend­ ment the big iron properties in the upper peninsula are opposed to U for fear that the commission would in­ crease their assessed valuation and for that reason the bill is slumbering: in the committee. Military Bill O. K. Now. The senate finally passed tbe mili­ tary bill as amended by the commit­ tee and under the agreement made the. house will concur. It provides Hfl.000 a year to be raised for. state arm­ ories on the basis of >10.000 to a com­ pany, and makes a number ot other changes, but does not provide tor pro-, motion by seniority as some members of the military board wanted. Tbe term of the rifle inspector is made four years instead of for life, members of the military board and their as­ sistants will hearafter receive grade pay only during camp and the quar­ termaster general is made absolutely responsible for the issuance of mili­ tary transportation and the discretion­ ary pbwer claimed by certain subordlates is wiped out Constitutional Convention Plans. By the action of the house in agree­ ing to, the conference report a con­ stitutional convention is assured. The vote stood 64 to 33. Unden the terms of tbe bill the convention will be msde up of 96 delegates, on tbe basis of three from each senatorial district The primary for the nomination of del­ egates will be held on August 13 and the election on September 17. The convention will assemble on October 22 at the capital and delegates will be paid >10 par day until January 31. The consittution adopted will be sub­ mitted to the electors for ratification at the April election, 1908.

William Jlbb, of' Adrian, is the new department commander. Detroit was chosen, as the next place of meeting without op­ position. The encampment was one of the moat harmonious ever held, there be­ ing no differences over any questions of administration. The new legisla­ tion amounted to practically nothing and was purely formal. Mrs. Anna M. Earle, of Detroit, won out in the race for president of the Ladies of the G. A.

The house is considering one of the most Important bills of the session, a substitute for the house bill which would apportion the primary school money by the number of teachers in a school district, instead of by the number of pupils, as now. The sub­ stitute allows the money of the state to be apportioned among the counties by school population, but gives the supervisors of the county power to elect whether the county’s share.shall be distributed according. to teachers or pupils. The purpose of the change of plan first devised, and ot this new sebemb, is to protect poorer districts. But large cities like Detroit would lose considerable money by apportion­ ment by teachers, and city members from various counties are likely to vote down the plan, fearing that the cities might suffer at suprevisors' EDISON AIDS FRIEND'S BURIAL. meetings.

Tbe boards are laid into the notches when the top board can be quickly and evenly nailed on. Another method consists of two posts driven into the ground about three feet from the fence with notched boards nailed across from each post to the fence.

The New Owner •’Well." whispered Marion to me, *1. guess ft doesn't make any difference if we did have to wear silk gowns that you washed, turned, mended "and made over. Guess what I just heard.” “What did you just heart” I asked. “Why." proceeded Marion, delight-’ edly, “I was standing over by those ferns a minute ago, and just roundvthe corner I heard Mrs. Lewis say to Claudie Brooks: 'I don’t see how the Harcourt girls manage to dress so well,’ and Claudia—spiteful old thing —said: ’1 think they ought to. be ashamed; everybody knows they can't afford It.’ But Just then that grand looking Mr. Maxwell came over to them, and* it wasn't -two minutes be­ fore I heard Mm ask .who-that utrlklng girl with the red rose in her hair was. That was you, Eleanor. Now, aren’t you flattered?" "Dreadfully," 1 answered. “Any­ thing more?” “Yes, indeed,''’ whispered Marion. "The best of it all was that he asked right away if you were one of the Harcourts who had owned the old place up town, and he asked her— Oh. look!” Marion's volubility was checked at this point by the appearance of the already mentioned Mr. Maxwell with our two hostesses on bls arm. He was a grave,* handsome. man, about 30, I thought, and after Mrs. Lewis had presented him ht* sat down be­ side me. He had talked about a good mahy things and had almost wearied of my monosyllabic replies, I fancy, when he finally brought up Harcourt, and I proceeded to astonish him by forgetting that we were strangers, and telling him the most ridiculous things with characteristic recklessness. I told him how we. Marlon and I, went a round about way to avoid passing the dear old place, and *how, when there was.no way out of It, we went by with our heads turned away, be­ cause” we loved if so. I told him we had been born there,.and that every big room and every dingy panel brought up a memory that "we loved. Apd it Was not until Marlon came for me to go home that I realized that he had listened to me silently for about an hour. In the weeks following he came frequently and we met at several places. I got to thinking a good deal about him and to liking him very much. There was • only one thing to dampen our pleasure. One day the news came to us that Mr. Grif­ fin, who held, a mortgage upon . Har­ court, had sold it to strangers, and Marion and 1 told ourselves that from that time our claim upon it would be only that of any other outsiders, who might look at its dear old walls and pass it by. As 1 say, this darkened our lives a little, but there were still Mr. MaxweiEs visits to look for­ ward to, so it was worth while exist­ ing. But One evening when, he called be said: “Miss Eleanor. I am going away tomorrow and I want you to do something for me. Will you?” *’I don’t know," 1 answered In a low voice. Somehow I couldn't for the life of me manage anything else. But he didn't seem to notice that I said nothing about regretting hi^ go­ ing away. He simply asked me If I would go down to Harcourt with him. I was too miserable to resist, and we went When we went up to the long hall above and found that some impa­ tient person had removed our few remaining pieces of old furniture and had hung new paintings there over crimson hangings, I felt I couldn’t stand any more. "What does this mean?" I cried. ’"The purchaser hopes to live here," explained Mr. Maxwell, "and he is get­ ting ready, for occupancy.” Here, I suppose, the poor man was bewildered 'enough, for I had restrain­ ed myself as long as 1 could, and I rushed to the one place where the hated crimson did not cover the pan­ els. laid my head against their friend­ ly support and burst out crying. "Oh. why did you bring me here?” I said. “I can't stand everything. I would rather have the old place burn­ ed to the ground, with only the poor old chimney left to show where it stood, than to see it fitted with the most beautiful things in tbe world Dy strangers.

But I ab­ solutely couldn’t lift my head, so he put hls hand under my reluctant chin and turned my face toward him. "El­ eanor," he went on. "don't you know I've loved you all the time and that I was going away with the heartache, confident that you did not care for me? Don’t you care just a IRtle more about mt than for an ordinary friend?" "Oh?"

If you know anything bad about any one keep it to yourself; if y.ou are very anxious for it to get out let the other fellow tell it and then you don’t have to face things that some times make it embarrassing for you. It is easy enough to . tell things about people but sometimes it is mighty hard to prove the things that you tell. It is better to mind your own business than it is anybody else’s. One’s reputation is worth a whole lot in this world and when you are try­ ing to injure ft, just stop and think before you do something to some one that you would not like to have done to you. This world is made up of a lot of different kinds of people, and In fact it would be a funny world if there were not all the different kinds in it. It takes the bad to show-up the good and the good to show up the bad and therefore if we didn’t have the bad how would we know who the good were? Sometimes we do things that we think are all right and they very often are the things that others think are all wrong. If we were all of one mind we wouldn't have the different" political parties, the dif­ ferent religious denominations, dif­ ferent amusements, the different vocations; we would all do the same thing in the same wuy. There is some bad in the best of us and there is some good in the worst of uk. When you see the bad in a person the most profit you can get from it is to shun the things that are bad in him. Don’t try to reform him by telling everybody of his faults; he may find out you are telling of his faults and dig up some of yours which may not look afiy better than his.

VOLUME XXXIV THIRTEEN ARE GRADUATED 00180216 Do you know what the celebration of the Fourth of July means to the American people? It means independ­ ence. It marks the anni­ versary of the signing of the declaration of independ­ ence, whereby our grand country was ■ freed from , England's tyranical rule. What a lot of meaning there is to this* word "independ­ ence.” It means much. It spells, content, happiness and success. Our forefathers gave themselves and gave us independence in gov­ ernment and prudent earners are giving themselves and their child­ ren independence in another way—they are laying the foundation for a competency ; thus they will enjoy independence in their old age and remove care from the minds of their’ children—they are saving their earnings when they are able to earn. That is the secret of the only independence known in America today. * That is the course you ought to pursue. We will help you if you will but make the start. Our savings department is open to you and we pay interest at the rate of three per cent., compounded quarterly, on deposits inour savings department. Better start today on the road to independence. Better start your account at The Farmers & Merchants Bank, where you KNOW it’s safe, and where every convenience known to banking is at your disposal. Any amount will start an account. OFFICERS G. A.

Pickering seemed to notice the mane dow and his eyes lighted disagreeably. “I think I have heard of your friend before,” be said, turning to me. “I congratulate you on the international reputation of your counsel.

Sheriff, I think we have finished our business for today.” He seemed anxious to get the man away, and we gave them escort to the outer gate where a horse and buggy was waiting. “Now, I'm in for It," said Larry, as I locked the gate.

"It’s all a great big game, fixed tip to try you and Pickering.—but principally you, you blockhead! Oh, It's grand, perfectly, deliciously grand,—and to think It should be my good luck to share in it!" "Humph! I’m glad, you're amused, but it doesn’t strike me as being so awfully funny. Suppose those had fallen into Pickering's hands; theft where would the Joko have been, I should like to know!” “On you. my lad, to be sure! The old gentleman wanted you to study architecture; he wanted you to study his house; he even left a little pointer in an old book! Oh. it’s too good to be true!” “That’s all clear enough.” observed Stoddard, knocking upon the despatch box with his knuckles. "But why do you suppose he dug this hole here with its outlet on the ravine?” "Oh, it was the way of him!” ex­ plained Larry. “He liked,the Idea of queer corners and underground pas­ sages.

We made a list of the Pickering notes and spent an hour discussing this new feature of the situation and speculating as to the hiding place of the remainder of my grandfather’s fortune. Larry and Stoddard both declared their intention of remaining until my troubles were ended in spite of my protests.

Her slim fingers, as they clasped the wire screen of the lantern, held my faze for a second. The red tam-o’ihanter that I had associated with her youth and beauty was tilted rakishly on one side of her pretty head. To 3nd her here, seeking, like a thief In the night, for some means of helping Arthur Pickering, was the bitterest 3rop in the cup. I felt as though I had been struck with a bludgeon. •"I beg your pardon!” she said, and laughed. “There doesn't seem to be snythlng to say, does there? Well, we do certainly meet under the most un­ usual, not to say unconventional, cir­ cumstances, Squire Glenarm! Please go away or turn your back. I want to getont. of this donjon. kg?p." SHORT TALKS BY - L. T. COOPER. MEDICINE. It’s curious what some people believe gpt a letter from s' woman who said her husband had been in bed eighteen ■is. She had bought seven bottles of the end her husband was still in bed. She stated that I was a scoundrel, a robber and various other pleasant things. - . Now the only thing I claim for Cooper’s New Discovery is that it will pot the stomach in working order. I know that if this is done, rheumatism, constipation, kidney and liver troubles, nervousness, end the general tired out, despondent feel­ ing will disappear in ninety-ninv- cases oat of a hundred. I know this medicine to be a fine tonic which used twice a year will throw off impurities and add flesh, strength and tone to the enitre system. But it will not do the impossible. No medicine on earth will do more than help nature. Certain diseases are beyond all medicine, although God in his wisdom may some Jay give us frail humans a knowledge of how to cure them. At present I know Cooper's New Discovery to be as thor­ oughly efficient a medicine us was ever o.n the market, and people who will take it for the common ills to which flesh is heir will be more than satisfied. Here is a letter from one who has tried: “For a long time I have suffered from severe headaches, weakness, and pains in my back and sides.” “Nothing I tried gave me relief, and a friend advised me to try your medicine. I improved from the first week. My back­ ache anu beadache left me and I felt myself i^owing stronger. My appetite increased^M I felt greatly improved in every way.

Oh! tell us, where is your dwelling And safe abiding place ’ When your life in the world is over And run is your mortal race? • Are you buried jn shadowy caverns, WherS the thought of struggle and pain Comes only in far-spent thunder, Like the ripple of pattering rain? Or the roar of a river in flood-time - Who remembers the dire destruction And his dread .on a former day, And thanks God for the lives of his loved ones. And bls safe, unravaged home?

When suddenly there rose before me. in my track, That steep-ascending hill, whereon doth stand ’ The towering stand-pipe, painted black. That stands as sentinel o’er the town. And for years to come it shall look down To guard our Nashville from that dread curse, If from her buildings a fire should burst. ** And when I reached the summit, whence a view Of broad extent is opened, it so chanced That on the southern slope were seated two Old men, in conversation so Entranced, That neither at my coming once up-glanced; And thus 1 rested near them and thus heard, While still I watched the landscape*, each wise word.

Ryan, living at 1709 Seventh St., Port Huron, Mich., says: “1 Can speak very favorably of Doan's Kidney Pills as have used them In my family for at least five years and they have never failed to give relief when called upon to do so. My husband has been a sufferer from kidney complaint for years. Hla back was very lame and sore and the kid­ neys were weak, and If he caught cold it always settled in his kidneys and caused him much pain and suffering. Often he was so bad lie could not sit or lie in omt position and when at­ tacked in Uh# way he al wavs ap­ pealed to Doan's Kidney Pills and obtained certain and lasting relief.

At first none dared go to their aid, but Arms, who was confined to his bed with malarial fever, learned of ’the accident, and. partially clad, rushed to the river bank and appealed to by-etandera to go with him in a boat to rescue the men. He finally pushed off alone, took off the Imperiled trio and safely land­ ed them. . George saved* the life of a Polish lad whose foot had become fastened in a railroad frog at Parsons.

VOLUME XXXIV =----- '— --- 1 INDEPENDENCE I _ Do you know what the celebration of the Fourth of July means to the American people? It means independ­ ence.- It marks the anni­ versary of the signing of the declaration of independ­ ence, whereby our grand country was freed from England's tyranical rule. What a lot of meaning there is to’ this word' “independ­ ence.” -It means much. It spells content, happiness and success. Our forefathers gave themselves and gave us independence in gov­ ernment and prudent earners are giving themselves and their child­ ren independence in another way—they are laying the foundation for a competency; thus they will enjoy independence in their old age and remove care from the minds, of their, .children—they are saving their earnings when they are able to earn. That is the secret of the only independence known in America today. That is the course you ought to pursue. We will help you if you will *but make the start. Our savings department is open to you and’ we pay interest at the rate of three per cent., compounded quarterly, on deposits in our savings department. Better start today on the road to independence. Better start your account at The Farmers & Merchants Bank, where you KNOW it’s safe, and where every convenience known to banking is at your disposal. Any amount will start an account. . OFFICERS G.

In bls opinion furnished to the military board, the attorney gen­ eral says: "It was the Intention of tbe legislature to repeal all of the existing laws relative to the Michigan national guard, consequently, upon the approval by the governor of en­ rolled act No. 391. and filing the same in the office of the secretary of state, there will be a vacancy in all mili­ tary offices named in said act, except that of brigadier general commanding, whose term of office under section 24 will expire January 1. 1908. and there­ fore his successor will be appointed for a term of three years." Under the attorney general's decision the new law provides for a new organization of the national guard, The governor will first appoint his staff officers, who will proceed with the work of organizing the militia anew. Staff officers will huld their offices for two years, or for six months after a new governor shall be sworn In. Adjt. Gen.

The judge said to me. ____ violence tn such cases/ Those were his honor's very words.” "You may give his bandr my compli­ ments-and tell him that-we are sorry not to see things his way, but there are pqlnts involved in this -business that he doesn't know anything about, and we. unfortunately, have no time to lay them before him.” The- sheriff's seeming satisfaction with his position on the wall and hW disposition to parley had begun to arouse my suspicions, and Larry sev­ eral times exclaimed impatiently at the absurdity of discussing my affairs with a person whom he insisted on calling a constable, to the sheriff’s evi­ dent annoyance. j “You. sir,—we've got our eye on you, and you'd better come along peac» able. Laurence Donovan; the descrip­ tions fits you to a T." "You could buy a nice farm with that reward, couldn't you—" began Larry. but at that moment Bates ran toward us calling loudly. "They're coming across the lake, sir," he reported, and instantly the sheriff's head disappeared, and as we ran toward the house we heard his horse pounding down the road toward St Agatha's. "The law be damned. They don't in­ tend to come in here by the .front door as a matter of law,!' said Larry. "Pick­ ering's merely using the sheriff to give respectability to his maneuver.” It was no time for a discussion of motives. We ran across the meadow past the water tower and down to the boat-house. Far out on the lake we saw half a dozen men approaching tbe Glenarm grounds. They advanced steadily over the light snow that lay upon tbe ice, one man slightly in ad rance and evidently the leader. “It’s Morgan," exclaimed Bates. "And there's Ferguson.” Larry chuckled and slapped his thigh. "Observe that stocky little devil just behind the leader. He's my friend from Scotland Yard. Lads! this is really an international affair.” "Bates, go back to the bouse and call at any sign of attack," I ordered. "The sheriff's loose somewhere." “And Pickering is directing his forces from afar," remarked Stoddard. "I count ten men in Morgan's line," said Larry, "and the sheriff and his deputy make two more. That's 12, not counting Pickering, that we know of on the other side." "Warn them away before they get much nearer," suggested Stoddard. "We don't want to hurl people if we can help it,”—and at this I went to the efid of the pier. Morgan and his men were now quite near, and there was no mistaking their intentions. Most of them carried guns, the others re­ volvers and long iee hooks. "Morgan," I called, holding up my hands for a truce, “we wish you no harm, but if you enter these grounds you do so at your peril.” They bad paused at a word from Morgan and listened sullenly. "We're all sworn deputy sheriffs." called the caretaker smoothly. “We've got the law behind us.” "That must be why- you're coming in the back way.” I replied. The thickset man whom Larry had identified as the English detective now came closer and addressed me in a high key. . "You're harboring a bad man, Mr. Glenarm. You'd better give him up. I've got my papers and the American law supports me. You’ll get yourself into trouble if you protect that man. You may not understand, sir, that he's a very dangerous character." "Thanks, Davidson!" called Larry. 'Ton'd better keep out of this. You now I'm a bad man with the shillalah!" "That you are, you blackguard!" yelled the officer, so spitefully that we all laughed. I drew back to the boat-house. "They are not going to kill anybody if they can help it." remarked Stod­ dard. "any more than we are. Even deputy sheriffs are not turned loose to do murder, and the Wabana county court wouldn't. If it hadn't been im­ posed on by Pickering, lend Itself to a game like this. And this busing's here Is only a private affair between Picker­ ing and the sheriff.” •'Now we’re in for it," yelled Larry; and the 12 men. in close order, came running across the ice toward the shore. “Open order, and fall back slowly toward the house," I commanded. And we deployed from the boat-house, while the attacking party still clung to­ gether,—a strategic error on their side, as Larry assured ub. "Buy together, lads. Don't sepa­ rate; you’ll get lost If you do,” he yelled derisively to the enemy. Stoddard hade him keep still, and we soon had our hands full with a preliminary skirmish. Davidson, the detective, seemed disgusted at Mbrgan’s tactics, openly abused the care­ taker, and ran ahead of bls column, revolver in hand, bearing down upon Larry, who held onr center. ' The Englishman’s haste was Bls undoing. A light fall of snow n few days before had gathered in the lit­ tle Hollows of the wood deceptively. The detective plunged into one of these and felt sprawling on all fours— a calamity that caused his comrades to pause uneasily. Larry was upon hin enemy in a flash, wrenched his pistol away and pulled the man to his feet. "Ab. Davidson. There’s many a slip! Move, if you dare, and 1'11 plug you with your own gun.” And he stood behind the man, using him as a shield while Morgan and the rest.of the army hung near the boat bouse heels ' I was blowing bard, but be made equal time with perfect eaae. The sheriff was bawling ardors to the men. who awaited ub before the front door. Bates and Larry wertf not visible, but I had every' confi­ dence that the Irishman would reap­ pear In the fight at tbe earliest mo­ ment possible. Bates, too. wau to be reckoned with, and tbe final struggle, If it came in the house itself, • might not be so unequal, providing we now. knew the. full strength" of thevenemy. "Now for tbe sheriff-—here we go!" cried Stoddard—beside me—when we wore close to tbe fringe of’trees that shielded the entrance. Then off we veered suddenly to the left, close upon the terrace, where one of the French windows was thrown open and Larry and Bates stepped out, urging us on with Insty cries. ' They caught us by the arms anddragged us over where the balustrade was lowest, and we crowded through bad followed across the ocean, and he attempted once to roar a command to Morgan. “Try it again,” I beard Larry adtnonlsh him. “try that once more.'and The Sod, God bless It! will, never feel the delicate imprint of your web-feet again." Ho turned the man about and rushed him toward the house, the re­ volver still serving as a prod. His flight gave heart to .the wary invaders immediately behind him and two fel­ lows. urged and led by Morgan, charged our line at a smart pace. "Bolt for the front door,” I called to Larry, and Stoddard and I closed in after him to guard his retreat. "They're not shooting." called Stod­ dard. "You may be sure they've had theln orders to capture the house with as little row as .possible." We were now nearing the edge of the wood, with the open meadow and water tower at our backs, while Larry was making good time toward the house. '• “Let's not wait for them here," shouted Stoddard. Morgan was advancing with a club in bls hand, making directly for me.. twe men at his heels, and the re£t veering off toward the wall of St Agatha's. "Watch the bouse,” I yelled to the chaplain; and then, on the edge of tbe wood Morgan came at me furious-, ly. swinging his club over his head, and in a moment we were fencing away at a merry rate. We both hnd revolvers strapped to our waists, but I had no Intention of drawing mine unless in extremity. At my right Stoddard was busy keeping off Mor­ gan's personal guard, who seemed re­ luctant to close with the clergyman. I have been, in my day, something of a fencer, and my knowledge of the foils stood me in good stead now. With a tremendous thwack I knocked Morgan's club flying over tbe snow, and. as we grappled. Bates yelled from the house. I quickly found that Mor­ gan's wounded arm was still tender. He flinched at the first grapple, and his anger got the better of his judg­ ment. We kicked up the snow at a great rate as we feinted and dragged each other about He caught hold of my belt with one hand and with a great wrench nearly dragged me from my feet, but I pinioned his arms and bent him backward, then, by a trick Larry had taught me, flung him upon his side. Meanwhile Bates continued to call lustily from the house. "Come on at any cost” shouted Stoddard, putting himself between me and the men who were flying to Mor­ gan's aid. . "Sheet, you fools, shoot!" howled Morgan, and as we started across the open meadow and .ran toward the house a shotgun roared back of ub and buckshot snapped and rattled on the stone of the water tower. "There's the sheriff,” called Stod­ dard behind me. The, officer and his deputy ran into the park from the gate of St. Agatha's, while the rest of Morgan’s party were skirting the wall to join them. "Stop or I'll shoot,” yelled Morgan, and I felt Stoddard pause in bls gi­ gantic stride to throw himself between me and the pursuers. "Sprint for it hot,” he called very coolly, as though he were coaching me in a contest of the most amiable sort imaginable. “Get away from those guns,” I pant­ ed, angered by the very generosity of his defense. •'Feint for the front door and then run for the terrace and the library captured. general.' had furnished him and sent h!« men detective had undoubtedly staggered the'caretaker, and we were aiowty re­ treating toward the house, Larry with one hand on tbb collar of bls pris­ oner aud the other grasping the re­ volver. with which he poked the. man frequently * In , tbe ribs.

Hears are alio very numerous and at times very bold. Only last week one captured a two-hundred-pound porker of a settler and made his es­ cape, although he was followed for nearly a mile, as was shown by the large quantity ol blood and hog bristles and slugs of pork scattered along the trail. Wolves are also the cause of much trouble. They are the northern ban­ dit, and while there is nearly as mucli bounty offered for their scalpp as there was for Jesse James, but few are killed. ■ An old hunter promised the settlers last winter that be would poison every wolf in the country before spring, but be failed, and he became so despondent over the matter that he went to the little town of Matchwood and swallowed a large glass of liquor for a "cheerer" and one of his pois­ oned wolf baits for a "chaser.” A doctor was called but before he ar­ rived tbe mighty hunter had passed from the scenes of earth, and now the dandelines and arbutus are in blossom on his grave. Thus he died and the wolves still live to continue their dep­ redations against the farmers' sheep and to make night hideous with their terrifying howls. At present the people are much elated over tbe prospects of a pea canning factory of large capacity being built at the town of Ewing.

A HOSPITAL INCIDENT By WAIT BOBEITS I1NEHAIT ewirwwew F (Copyright, by Joseph B. BowIm.) Willie Madden picked up the bowl of brown sugar, trnd giving the oil­ cloth-covered table a wipe with- the sleeve of his jacket, hobbled Into the pantry. The pantry was empty. Miss Ar­ thurs, .the nurse, was busy back in the ward, turning down small beds for smaller occupants, hunting out "nighties" for the babies, changing hot pillows for cool ones, and providing that final drink of water which is for­ ever > associated with bed-time, and which hejps to postpone, if only for a moment, tbe inevitable turning down of the light. Willie Madden loitered for a momeat In the pantry, finishing a bowl of bread and milk which he found there, and filling, his pockets with lumps from the sugar bowl. Then-he limped back again.- The ward was growing quiet now. Over in a oorner behind a screen, the "Hunkle" baby was getting its bran bath, while on the red-covered center table • three nursing bottles reposed In a b^sln of , hot water, substitute mothers for as many waiting infants. Willie Madden, autocrat of the ward, sat down . on the side of his small bed and leaned his crutch against a chair. Ips broken leg ex­ tended stiffly before him. Willie Madden was not sleepy. "Nice hour to go to bed," he grumbled to a boy on tbe other side. "Six o’clock ain't no bedtime. Last edi­ tion’s jtflft ouL"--It ain’t so bad when you can walk around and get tired," said the next boy, who wore a plaster cast around bis small body, and whose legs and arms tossed restlessly. “I gues- I won’t never be tired again. I’m goln’ tn sit up next week, though." Willie Madden debated for a mo­ lt eagerly, holding it in h‘s thin finmeat. Then he reached for his trous ■era and fumbled In the pockets. "Here,” he said,, carelessly tossing over a lump of sugar, "take that to make you feel better.” The boy in the plaster Jacket took gers and nibbling at it to make it last Miss Arthurs gave the last dose of medicine, and locking the cupboard went wearily out. her keys Jingling in .her hand. A moment later the night nurse stopped at the door, her rubber-heeled shoes making no sound, and smiled a good-night to the chil­ dren. The boy cautiously crept out of bed and reached for his crutches. It was evident that some dark conspir­ acy was on foot, for he limped noise­ lessly to the corridor and looked, carefully up and down. There was zro one in sight, and save for a strong odor of turpentine in the air and an occasional stifled cough from the next ward, there was no evidence of life. Willie Madden's next motions were mysterious. Ha crept over to the pan­ try, with its rows of locked cupboard and refrigerator doors. Some one came quickly down the hall, and the boy slipped behind a door and stood quiet, his heart thumping in his ears. The steps passed on and again every­ thing was qule^ Willie Madden emerged from his hiding place,, and stooping with difficulty, his splinted leg out before him, he groped under tbe long red table-cover which reached almost to the floor. When he straightened again he held in his hand three large, thick slices of bread plentifully sprinkled with brown sugar, which he proceeded to button inside his jacket. Still with the same caution he went back to the ward. There was no vacillation in hi* movements. An observer, had there been one, would have seen es­ tablished routine in hl* actions, for -without a spare gesture he picked from the nurses' table ‘the little wick­ er basket which carried empty bottle* to the pharmacy to be refilled, and carried St to his bed. Hi* next proceeding was carious. From under his mattress he produced an orange, somewhat Battened from ita place of. concealment, and £ ball ot cord, much knotted and of every shade and thickness. Tn a moment he bad fastened tbe string to the han­ dle of the basket, had dumped In the sugared bread and the orange, and was ready for the last act in the drama. . The night nurse came along the corridor and stopped at the door. "What’s wrong, .William?’ she called softly. "Oettln’ a drink," he answeerd men­ daciously. . v He watched her out of sight, then slipped to the window and unhooked the screen: "Hst!" he called into the darkness. "Hst!" came sibilantly from be­ low. The basket disappeared over the window ledge. It swung slowly down Into the void, its progress marked by the various hues of’ the cord, until at a knot of lavender and green the con­ spirator stopped. The cord jerked tot a moment—the nibbling of a hungry •fish at the bait. Then the basket swung clear and was. hauled up swiftly. Rather to the surprise of the boy above, it was not empty. At the bottom was a sofL sticky gum­ drop. once lemon-yellow, now a dark­ ish brown. Willie Madden drew the screen shut, snapped the catch ana popped the gumdrop into his mouth with what seemed a single compre­ hensive gesture. Then, the basket in ais hand he turned around. In the middle, of the ward stood one of the doctors and the night nurse. Both were frowning ferociously, both were looking at the basket. "Well?" said Willie Madden defi­ antly, when the silence becam^ op­ pressive. “Well." said the doctor, “this looks uncommonly like stealing, my friend. What was in that basket?" ' “Bread and butter—and sugar," ho said honestly. He had heard some­ where that there are times when the truth is a good thing. Anyflow. what use to say that he wak merely amus­ ing himself, when they had only to look out to seo the kid eating his sup­ per Just below the window? “Is that all?" asked the nurse searchlngly. “An orange," he admitted. The nurse turned to the doctor. “The Fruit and Flower Mission sent oranges to-day. It was probably his own.” “Who’s watting below there?" The doctor's voice was even more savage than before. It was too dark to see his eyes. . “The kid—my brother." The doctor spoke a word or two to the nurse, turned on his heel and went out. Willie Madden watched him shrlnklngly. "What’ll he do to him?" he asked tremulously. “He ain't done nothin’. I did the plnchin’." The nurse was still severe. "Wait and see," she said, holding tight to the boy’s shoulder. "It’s a serious thing to pass bread and butter—and sugar out ot a hospital window at night" There was not a sound in the ward except the heavy breathing of the know that your kid was hungry when you was just stuffed with good, thing?? You wouldn’t eat much yourself, could you? It *u’d kinds choke you. wouldn’t it? Well, that’s the way I feel even­ time I take a bite, for I know the kid hi half starved because I’m not there to look after him." , •_ The. nurse moved a little nearer to Willie Msdden. but she remained si lent He almost hated her. she seemed so cold and hard and relent­ less. He was glad that ho wasn’t her kid, and that the other kid wasn't hets. Well, .nothing mattered much now unless they would let- him go with the kitK There was sound of steps out In the corridor. There was more than one person, and the boy braced himself again to meet the shock. Probably it was a policeman, maybe two of them, but where was the kid all this time? The room spun around for a second, and Willie Madden was obliged to cling to the little white bed for sup­ port. He had never felt this-way be­ fore. Someway he had always been able to laugh at any situation, espe­ cially If it only affected him, but this was different, for now (he kid-was in­ volved, his* little kid who depended upon him for any emergency, and whom he had never failed. ‘ A few seconds later the doctor came In, pushing before him a small, badly frightened boy, who displayed much resistance and who still held In his band a piece of bread and butter. The doctor felt around in his coat pocket, 'and pulled out with difficulty a similar piece. '••Here,” he said gravely, presenting it! "You were leaving this behind." Willie Madden was puzzled. He slid from the nurse's restraining band and hobbled over to the disconsolate newcomer. "Don’t you be scared.” ho said im­ pressively. “You ain^t done nothin'f” "The order book, please,” said the doctor soberly. He wrote for a mo­ ment, then passed It to the nurse, who read It aloud to the astonished boys. "New patient, otherwise the Kid. Bath and lied, with liberal diet. The Brothers Madden will go to the Fresh Air Home to-morrow.” Willie Madden drew a breath of re­ lief. then turned away. He tip-tapped over to the bed next his, where lay the boy who had helped to undress him. and wakened him ruthlessly. "Here,” he said, "you crawl into the bed over there next to Sarah Ann.

Ketcham, who relinquished his position as county commissioner of schools lust Monday, on the same date took charge of the nosloflice at Hastings, succeeding W. R. Cook,' who has been postmaster for lhe past eight years. The position is worth 42,300 per year to Mr. Ketcham, and his many friends around Barrv coun­ ty will Im? pleasod at his good fortune. It is too bad that some people of the village can not get the .spirit of cleanliness regarding their places. The president's attention has been called to the habit of some people of throwing refuse in the streets in front of their places and it will become necessary to enforce the ordinance relative to this matter if the practice is not stopped. If you have any idea of buying piano look up W. H. Burd. Y<_ will probably find him wheeling dirt or working around his new building, but he will drop whatever he is at to ta’k piano to you. Not only that, but he will sell you a better piano for a lot less money than any outside dealer can possibly quote you. Don’t be foolish and buy a piano away from home, when you can do so much bet­ ter with a home dealer, who is always here to make his word good, and who handles the best goods at the lowest prices. The factory of the Lentz Table) Co., is closed for alx)ut two weeks, during which time several important improve­ ments will lx? made. A new fonr-valve Allas engine will replace the present motive (tower, which has for some time past befh inadequate for the ser­ vice required of it. The new engine will develop from 130 to 200 horse* power, according to steam pressure used, and will undoubtedly furnish ample power for many yearn to come. The smoke-stack will be built alxiut twenty-five feet higher, to give it better draught.

Once Sarah Ann be wtrew able to start business again in Johnson moaned restlessly and Willie about tenday*.* lies. In the sixth inning the erratic ‘‘Rube’’ McDowell was substituted for Lake, and the first three Nashville players up landed on the angular left-hinder for safe ones, two niore. runs being added to the string. Then in tbe seventh inning McDowell took* to the tall grass and Johnson took his plaqe on the mound. Three runs in the eighth and one in the ninth showed how well the boy* liked him. and the total was fifteen. If there had been room on the score book they would nave made more, but what’s the use? Fifteen was a synonym *or sufficient. Sunfield tried hard. They had some sort of a misguided notion that they were going to win this third game, and they really tried hard to do it, but Brown wouldn't have it that way. He had a lot bf.fun with them, letting them hit the ball occasionally, just because he liked to see them run, and because lie thought the team back of him ought to»do something to make the*game enjoyable, but he had the game well in hand at all times, and at times when the Sunfield boys got gay he would tighten up like a measly raiser and deny them anything at all. The most fun he. had was in twice re­ tiring the redoubtable Cole on strikes, something that even Cole himself ad­ mits is hard to do. During the game they succeeded in accumulating eight runs, five of them in the fifth inning, when Brown loosened up because he liked to see tbe Sunfield boys run a little, and 1>ecause some more of the team got the same notion in their heads and Iqt easy chances go by them to the out-field, where the cows rumi­ nate. When they got what teas con­ sidered was all that Sunfield needed to make them, feel a little less down trodden, down went the flag and it was. all off. It was a good game to watch, in spite of the plenitude of scores. Most everybody took a slani at the ball, both teams fatting their batting aver­ ages. There were plenty of errors on both sides, as there are bound to be in a free-hitting game, but the.interest was keen until the last end of the game, when it was realized that noth­ ing short of absolute foolishness could lose the game for Nashville, aud they kept their foolishness locked, up in their room at the hotel where they couldn't get at it until after tbe game. Then they took it out and threw it away. The score by innings:. Innings — 1 2 3 4 5 0 7 8 V—Total Nashville 1 1 2 0 52 0 3 1— 15 Sunfield 0 1 1 0 5 0 0 1 0- 8 OF COURSE HE LOVED HER. But the Reason He Gave Was Not Very Satisfying. "Paul Bourget, the French novel ist," said a magazine editor, “thinks he understands' American women. Ke is continually -writing essays about them. Were I a woman these essays would make. me mad. But Bourget does understand American men pretty ►well. Once at a dinner that Richard Harding Davis gave in his honor Bourget- handed to our men a singu­ larly large and acrid lemon. He said that we are too lax and boorish toward our wives. He said we often treated a pretty, yellow-haired type­ writer girl hired yesterday with more gentleness and courtesy than we gave to wives of 20 or 30 years' standing. He instanced the case of a man who sat reading the evening paper one night, a clgat in his mouth and his feet on the sofa 'Darling,' said his wife, 'do you* love me?’ ‘Yes. he an swered without looking up. 'As much as ever?’ 'Sure,' said the man, as he struck a match and relighted his ci­ gar. 'Why?' the woman pursued ten­ derly. 'Oh, I don’t know.’ said he. ’Habit, -I suppose.’” Results of Ambitions. Most of us are made what we are by the ambitions that we have never realized. The Cause of Many Sudden Deaths. There is a disease prevailing in this country most dangerous l>ccause so decep'tive.

Bladder troubles almost always result from a derangement of the kidneys and a cure is obtained quickest by a "proper treatment of the kidneys. If you arefeel­ ing badly you can make no'mistake by taking Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy.

Tbo reading began dire tly after the court sat, with Clarence Darrow and Senator Borah alternating for their respective sides, and although they pressed ahead as fast as they could, a folio calculation made at adjournment showed that much of Tuesday would be consumed by the unread affidavits. The depositions have an Important bearing upon the case, but they con­ tained do interest for the crowd and tire attendance was the lightest since, the trial began. Both Sides Satisfied. Both sides seemed to be satisfied with the showing made by depositions and their contents will probably fur­ nish much material for directly op­ posed contention when the trial reaches the argument stage. One ob­ jection from the state constituted the sole interruption for the day and during all the rest of the time counsel for both sides seemed united in get­ ting all the matter in the sworn state­ menu tMJfore the Jury. The state counted a victory that Bradley had receded from his first and positive statement that |t was a gas explosion and was prepared to believe that a bomb might have been used. Bradley’s first statement was made be­ fore ho knew of Harry Orchard’s con; fession or any of the evidence locating Orchard In the vicinity of the bouse. The prosecution was also pleased to have it shown that Wyte Bradley was still inside the door when the explo­ sion occurred and particles of glass from the door, hairs from the rug out­ side the door, and pieces of stone and cement from the mosaic floor of the .vestibule were blown Into his body. It will be contended that this shows con­ clusively that the explosion was from the outside and could not have been caused by gas inside the bouse. . Where the Defense Scores. The defense, on the other hand, is satisfied that the depositions show that it would have been Impossible for Orchard to have reached the vestibule and placed the bomb In the manner and time described by him; that the evidence, particularly as to the effect of the explosion, shows that a gas leak was the cause: that there were not two explosions, and that Orchard’s testimony as to his inovemcuu'in the rear of the building when be claims he poisoned the milk Is shown by physical conditions to be false. The delay caused by the length of the Bradley depositions may possibly defer the appearance of Haywood as a witness in his own behalf until Thursday morning.

Sclirffitz, convicted of extor­ tion, was .Monday sentenced to five years in the penitentiary. When the sentence was pronounced there was a remarkable outburst of applause from’ the hundreds of persons who crowded Judge Dunne’s courtroom. Judge Dunne sentenced Mayor Schmitz to imprison­ ment in San Quentin penitentiary. Sentence followed the recent convic­ tion of Schmits for extorting 11.175 from French restaurant keepers of San Francisco. Sentence Greeted with Cheers. •_ As the last words of the sentence fell from the judge’s lips the great crowd that had. stood throughout the dramatic scene, sent up a thunderous cheer. “Good for you!” shouted a raan in the back of the room. His ejacula tion was echoed and reechoed by one after another of the spectators. Sev­ eral threw their hats into the air, others scrambled upon chairs to look over the shoulders of the-crowd and the greatest confusion prevailed. Attorney Falrall of the defense, rais­ ing his voice abov& the din, called out to Judge Dunne: “Your honor, this cheering is a very unseemly occurrence.” "Well," retorted Judge Dunne, with spirit, ’If we had a sheriff worthy of the name ft would have been stopped Instantly.” Sheriff Thomas O'Neill was standing Inside the rail. He turned to the court and protested. “Nobody could have stopped that,. your honor." Scene Without a Parallel. The sentence of the convicted may•pr was in one respect without a par­ allel in the criminal annals of San Francieco. Half a dozen times Judge Dunne was interrupted by Sohniltz, who protested in strong words against the "delivery of a lecture” instead of the announcement of judgment, He accused the court of unnecessarily hu­ miliating him, and giving opportunity for further humiliation by the report­ ing of his remark!,, in the press. Once, replying to the prisoner. Judge Dunne said: "Such brazen effrontery was prob­ ably no more than should be expected, and it is the duty of tbe court to bear it in patience." At another Mme Attorney Metson, of the defense, Interposed a vigorous ob­ jection in support of his client, “to tho court's lecture.” Judge Dunne’s reply was that Mr. Metson. instead of interrupting the proceedings, ought to be given a day In court to answer the charge that he had attempted to tam­ per with the jury which convicted Schmitz. Metson,' restraining himself, calm­ ly answered In the same spirit, say­ ing that he was ready to answer any charge that w-as made against him. •' and V.' ets W. FURNISS.

Wenger Bros। Lansing.—A motion to quash tbe tnformation filed by Attorney General Bird in a case of Importance com­ menced against the Detroit, Grand Haven & Milwaukee Railway com­ pany. for the forfeiture of its special charter, was denied by the supreme court. The claim was -made by the railway company that the questions raised as to the validity of the com­ pany's special charter bad been fore­ closed by a decision of the United States supreme .court in the celebrat cd'railway tax cases, but the supreme court says: "The questions raised are important, and we see nothing to indi­ cate that the relator is actuated by a desire to institute vexatious proceed­ ings, or to again try questions which have been once adjudicated." The case involves the question whether the D., G. H. & M. railway can operate its entire line of railroad under spe­ cial charters granted by the territorial 'legislatures to .the Detroit & Pontiac Railway company and the Detroit & Milwaukee Railway company, and covering only a partion of the present line of railroad. Stock Food Not Medicins. In affirming the decision of Judge Weist.'of the’ Ingham circuit court, dismissing the bill tor an injunction against State Dairy and Food Commlssioner Baird, the supreme court sustains the constitutionality of the law prohibiting the sale of concen­ trated commercial feeding stuffs, un­ less the package containing the same shall be labeled and give a description of tho articles-which It contains. The Pratt Food company, of Philadelphia, sought by injunction to restrain the dairy and food commissioner from issuing bulletins stating that the com­ plainants* 'preparations are not li­ censed and warning the public against buying or selling them. While holding that injunction is tho proper remedy the court found against the complainants’ contention that its preparation is not a food but a medi­ cine. AU similar preparations are said to come within the statute and their sale is prohibited unless their sale is licensed by the dairy and food department Law Increases Salaries.

Old age benefits to members on reaching the age of 70 years, if prom­ ised in 'heir certificates of member­ ship in the Knights of the Maccabees, may be collected, according to a de­ cision of the supreme court in the case of Dan SL Clair Mineland. These benefits, it is held, are subject to fu­ ture reasonable regulations. The supreme, court has affirmed the judgment of the St Clair circuit court in annulling a contract made by the city of SL Clair to purchase power tor operating tho municipal electric lighting plant from a company at Port Huron. The decision is on the ground that an attempt was made to devote money borrowed for one •purI>ose to ,another purpose, and1 that a two-thirds majority was required in the common council in order to make the contract valid, even though the right to use the money raised by bond­ ing was not disputed. Accused of Selling Liquor. A justice of the peace complained of for selling liquor unlawfully is some­ thing unusual. Justice Fraser, of the municipal court, issued a warrant for the arrest of E. M. Babbitt of Has­ lett park, who is charged with selling liquor without a license. Other war­ rants were issued for Clyde Towner, a clerk for Babbitt; George North, pro­ prietor of a hotel at Pine Lake, and Eugene Wilcox, his clerk. Officers claim to have purchased beer from all the parties complained of. Requisition Papers Defective. The papers in tbe case of Benny Klock, charged with giving bogus tips In Toledo, were found to be defective and were sent back. The requisition of Gov. Warner for James B.

HOUSE <a THOUSAND CANDLES By MEREDITH NICHOLSON CHAPTER XXIV. Th« Fight in the Library. “They're coming faster this time," ■narked Stoddard, as we saw the lemy advancing across the bridge. "Certainly. Their general has been cursing them right heartily for re­ treating without tho loot. He wants his >300.000 autograph collection," ob­ served Lafry. ' "Why doesn't he come for it hlmsdf like a man*' f demanded. "Like a man. do you say!" ejacu- j iated Larry. "Faith and you flatter that flathead!" It was nearly 11 o'clock when the at-, taridng party relumed after a parley ; bn the Ice behind the boat house. The four nt us were on the terrace ready , far them. They came smartly through ' the wood, th’e sheriff and Morgan slightly in advance of the others. 1 | expected them to slacken their pace wfctyi they came to the open meadow, foot they broke Into a quick trot at the water tower and came toward the ' house as steady as veteran campaign«• "Shall we try gunpowder?" asked Lorry. "We'li let them Are tho first vol ley," I said. - "They’ve already tried to murder you and Stoddard—I’m in fqr letting loose with the elephant guns." Larry pretested. "Stand to your clubs,1' admonished Stoddard, whose own weapon was comparable to the Scriptural weaver’s beam. "Possession is nine points of the fight, and we’ve got the house." "Also a prisoner of war." said Larry, grinning. The English detective had smashed the glass in the barred window of the potato cellar, where Larry had lodged him. and we could hear him howling and cralng below. "Lcoks like business this time!" ex­ claimed Larry. "Spread out now and the first head that looms over the bal­ ustrade gets a dose ot hickory." : The attacking party now divided, halt halting between us and the bridge and <be remainder swinging around [tbe bouse toward the front entrance. ; "Ah, look at that!" yelled Larry. 'Tt'a a battering ram they have. O. man of peace! have I your Majesty's -conaent to try the elephant guns now*' Morgan and tho sheriff carried beitween them a stick of timber from .which the branches had been cut, end, with a third man to help, they (ran it up the steps and against the door with a crash that came booming and echoing back through the great thailB of tbe house. 1 totos was already bounding up the front stairway, a revolver in his hand ami a look of supreme rage on his fxcu. Leaving Stoddard and Larry to •watch the library windows, I ran after iliiaj, and we clattered over tho loose boards tn the upper hall and into a grmt unfinished chamber immediately aver the entrance. Bates bad the winidoir up wht’n I reached him and was woO out upon the coping, yelling a warning to tho men below. 8a drew his revolver up to shoot, afffl when I caught his arm he turned 4o me with a look of anger and indig­ nation I bad never expected to see on |his aoiorieM. mask-llke face. ! "Wy God, sir! That door was his erfie, came from a famous house in England, and they're wreck­ ing it as though it were common pine. He tore himself free from my grasp as'the besiegers again launched their battering ram against the door with a frightful crash, and his revolver cracked smartly thrice, as he-beat far out over the door. fils shots were a signal for a sharp reply from one of the men below, and I "felt Bales start, and pulled hlr» in. the blood streaming from his face. "It’s all right, sir—all right—only a cut across my cheek, sir"—and an­ other bullet smashed through the glass, spurting plaster dust from the wall. A fierce onslaught below caused, a tremendous crash to echo through the house, and I heard firing on the opposite side, where the enemy's re­ serve was waiting. Bates, with a handkerchief to bls face, protested that be was unhurt. "Come below; there's nothing to be gained here"—and I ran down to the hall, where Stoddard stood, leaning upon his club like a Hercules, and coolly watching the door as it leaped and shook under the repeated blows of the besiegers. A gun roared again at the side of tbe bouse, and I ran to tbe library, where Larry had pushod furniture against all the long windows save one, which he held open. Ho stepped out upon the terrace and emptied a revol­ ver at the men who were now creep­ ing along the edge of the ravine be­ neath us. One of them stopped and discharged a rifle at us with deliber­ ate alm. The ball snapped snow from the balustrade and screamed away harmlessly. "Bah," such monkeys!" he mut­ tered. "I believe I’ve hit that chap!" One man had fallen and lay howling In the ravine, his hand to his thigh, while bls comrades paused, demor­ alised. "Serves you right, you blackguard!" Larry muttered. I pulled him in and we jammed a cabinet against the door and returned to the ball. Meanwhile the blows at the front door continued with increasing vio­ lence. Stoddard still stood where I had left him.. Bates was not in sight but the barking of a revolver above showed that he had returned to tbe window to wreak vengeance on his en­ emies. Stoddard shook his head In depreca­ tion. 'They fired first—we can’t do leas than get back at them,” I said, be­ tween the blows of the battering ram. A panel ot the great oaken door now splintered, but in their fear that we might use the broken panel os a loophole, they scampered out into range of Bates* revolver. In return we heard a rain of small shot on the up­ per windows, and a few seconds later Larry shouted that the flanking party ■was again at the terrace. This movement evidently heartened ths sheriff, for, under a fire from Bates, hts men charged again and th® log crashed into the door, shaking it free from the upper hinges. The low­ er fastenings were wrenched loose an instant later, and the men came tum­ bling Into the hall—the sheriff, Mor­ gan and four others I had never seen before. Simultaneously the flanking party began sjpaghliyi the small panes of the’"TTbrary wioifews.

One day last week he was called out of town on -business, and a tele­ gram came to tbe house for him. The girl received the telegram and-took it to her mistress, who looked at the ad­ dress on the wrapper and laid it aside.

"Why should 1 Open it.

Julie?" asked Horace Winton, without looking up from his paper. "Do I love you? What did I tell you- on that subject yesterday? You know 1 said if. I ever changed my mind I would give you due notice," and he laughed the laugh of a big healthy man. "But I have told you a thousand times that that doesn't satisfy me,” ■aid Mrs. Winton a little sadly. "I should think It would be ewy for’ you to tell me once In awhile without my having to aXk always. I always feel like telling brides not to expect the little attentions of the engsgement and honeymoon to last, because they will be sadly dlsapboinZed. "And the brides would be the first to tiro ot the honey if it should last,” said her husband, emphatically. "Now look here. Julie. We’ve been all over this subject hundreds of times before, so what's the use of digging it up again. My tongue may not be very nimble with smooth phrases—it never was, you remember—but my heart is true to you and always will be. It isn’t my nature to be gushing, and I. am too old to learn new tricks. Can't you be satisfied and happy with know­ ing that, dear?" "1 have to be." said Mrs. Winton. “I never find it a hardship tn tell you I love you. If my tongue over needs a vacation I shall—” But her husband stopped her with a gesture. "Excuse me for interrupting. Julio; but did I tell- you of the invitation 1 have to spend my vacation with Smith and a party of hunters in Arkansas this fall? He's going in his private car and was kind' enough to ask me to go along. Your speaking of vaca­ tions reminded me." ’v "Do you mean to say,‘ Horace, that you could go out there and have a good time without me?" . “I thought you might'TTki to spend that time with your mother, as we had planned. You see. dear, this U the chance of a lifetime, and you couldn't go along to a wilderness like that." “We had planned to go together to mother’s, but it doesn't matter in the least. I won't be happy without you wherever 1 go. for we have always spent our vacations together; but dont' let that keep you from accepting the invitation." Mrs. Winton left the room to weep out her troubles on her bed. while her husband resumed his paper as If nothing had hap­ pened. She half expected him to follow and make up as he had done on other occasions, but presently he went to' the office without saying good-by as usual. Nothing was said by either about vacations after that till one day late in AuguSt. when Mr. Winton came home joyfully . waring some railroad tickets at his wife, who sat with her embroidery on the front porch. "Luckiest thing happened this morning," he called, breathlessly. “I picked up these tickets for a mere song, and the firm said 1 should take a couple of weeks off right away. We'll pack our duds and take the 4:30 train, so as not to lose any more of this beautiful weather. It’s a little late In the season for Parkview, but we can have a good quiet tiine by our­ selves. No crowds and nolbe—just lake and woods and beach to enjoy. I'm half wild to get started." Mrs. Winton, who had fully deter­ mined to never, never say the word vacation again, caught the infection and beamed at her husband qver the hasty packing in quite the old fash­ ion. "Isn't this just heavenly. Horace?” asked Mrs. Winton, as they strolled through the deserted park next day. "I am so glad most of the people have gone home for we can have such a nice time by ourselves." "I’m having a delightful time." said Winton, honestly. "We’re having bet­ ter food. too. by waiting till the rush is over. The mothers had to take the youngsters home to school, so they have plenty of time to wait on what few are left at the hotels. "HunTT up!" cried Mr. Winton, sud­ denly. seizing hla wife's hand and rushing off behind a pile of rocks. “I saw Fred and Bess .Martin coming through the woods and we’ll have no peace If they find us. They'll be tag­ ging after us everywhere we go and our good times will be over." "Fred and Bess? Are they here? How much I would like to see them. I wonder if they saw us running." *1 don't care whether they did or not Fred would be wanting to go off fishing the first thing and I didn’t come here to fish. I came to have a good time with just my dear little wife,” and he gallantly stooped to kiss Julie’s cheek. "I believe I’ll have a nap this after­ noon. Horace," said Mrs. Winton, after three days of mooning about in tbe woods and by the shore. “You may like to read the papers a little while. If you call me at four 1 will be ready for a stroll before supper time." "Don’t He dbwn. Julie. 1 will be so lonely ^without you and I don’t care to see the papers. Come out in the woods and you can rest by putting your head on my shoulder as you used to do." Mrs. Winton’s reply inaudible and she began slowly to get ready for another aimless stroll. It a!)® tried embrlodery her husband promptly confiscated It* and sensible conversa­ tion yas frowned upon by that gentle- doubted If they were accomplishing their purjM>a«. By careful dodging they avoided . their friends and sat hour after hbnr watching the waves of the birds and squirrels. If she pro­ posed fishing, which wes one erf bar husband's favorite diversion*, he vetoed U od the spot because she .was always slightly seasick in a boat, and no lover was ever more devoted to his sweetheart than was this manly man to the wife of half-a-dozen summers. Mrs. Winton was as happy as* she could possibly be at first She won­ dered bow she could have evfer foufid fault with this paragon of a husband, whose devotion was noticeable to every one who saw them together. ' It was like-living over the days of their courtship, and life ran along tn smooth grooves, until one day when the following conversation wsa over­ heard : ’Td like to find out where that bridal couple came from.” said a woman's voice, as Mr. and Mrs. Win-, ton sat In a little cove by rhe lake that afternoon. "Did you ever see such devotion? It really makes me feel lonely. J Shu, to see them so ab­ sorbed in each other. ‘ 1 know you love me and all that, but I wish you were just a little more like that man." “And call you honey at a hotel table?” said a man with a great laugh. "That isn’t a bridal couple, you little goose. Can’t you see he’s just a com­ mon. every-day henpecked husband. I suppose he's dying to be off with the men a little while or out fishing, but he has to stick to her. You'd be mighty tired In short order it I—" Their voices trailed off. and Mr. Winton sat with Immovable face months. One strange coucidenc-.- was connected with its birth and dejatli.

Comparatively few housewives realize how great, ia the virtue of corn starch as a help .in cooking and baking. ..Alice Cary Waterman and Janet M. Hill, the famous culinary experts, have made a special study of this phase of cookery, with results tijat are not only interesting but surprising. As is well known, quality in corn starch is an all important consider­ ation. and the two cooks found Kings­ ford's Oswego Corn Starch to be the best for every purpose. For example, the use of this corn stare!) in bread results in a tine grain and delicious flavor. with a crust unusually tender, 'rhe experts found also that it greatly improves the consistency of soups, gravies and sauces, gives jellies a pleasing firmness for moulding, makes pastries more delicate, and so on through many helpful uses. With a view *to giving housewives everywhere the full benefit of this investigation, the National Starch Company, successors to the old firm ot T. Kingsford A Son. Ch»wego, N. Y., have embodied the results in l«>ok form, which they are now distributing gratuitously among applicants. This boqkis unique in every respect, containing not only a great many original receipts but a carefully arranged list of helpful cooking hints and suggestions. There is little wonder that the demand for Hie book is enormous, for every woman In­ terested in good cooking wants a copy.

He had a .istone wall behind the bat in McConnell, who caught a fine game, but two bad errors In the out-field lost the game in tbe seventh, after two were out.

Every Man, Woman and Child Should have a Bank Account. In this age of commercialism- it behooves every man, woman and child to acquire the habit of saving; it compels them, if they would “get along” in the world, to be prepared to meet the responsibilities of life; and nothing will aid toward this end more than a well-balanced bank account. If you are earning money and not saving some of it you are very foolish. You may think it’s hard to maintain a bank account but it’s not—it’s just the start yoi need. Bring a dollar to this bank and open an account—do it NOW—now’s the time. ‘ Thin bank pays 3 per cent interest, compounded quarterly, on savings accounts.

Arrangements are now well under way for the coming harvest festival, and have progressed suffigientlv to make It an assured fact that the festi­ val of this year will eclipse the one of last year in every waj . Much “more money will be raised, ds th* business men all feel that this must be Nash­ ville’s biggest and best celebration, and that it must be In every way a credit to the town. The industrial parade, which was such a decided hit last year, will be rej>ealed this year on both days of the festival, but will far surpass the one of last year, inasmuch as nearly every business institution in Nashville will be represented, as well as other organ­ izations. A special committee,- con­ sisting of W. A. Quick, Frank Caley and Menno Wenger has been appoint­ ed to have -the arrangements for the parade in charge, and they will leave no stone unturned to make the parade the big feature of the festival. There will be a* base ball game each afternoon, but the two teams which will contest with Nashville have not been definitely decided upon, the prob­ ability lying-with Vermontville and Sunfield.-both of which have been giv­ ing the Nashville team some, warm arguments this season. There will be two balloon ascensions each day, contracts for which have already been made with Prof. Pilbeam of Lansing, who has made a specialty for years of conducting street carnivals. Among the sports will be a five-mile foot race for a liberal purse, one which will bring some good long-dis­ tance runners and make a race - welf worth seeing. Another event which will awaken considerable interest ’will be the potato race on horse-back. Each contestant will provide himself with a pointed stick, with which- he will spear a potato, out of the basket and carry it-lo his cwn basket at the end of. the route. The one having the most potatoes in his basket al the end of fifteen minutes to be declared the winner. It is a part of the game to knock a contestant's potato off- his slick if you can. in which case he msut either gel that same potato again or go back and get another. It makes an exciting race and one which creates a lot of fun There will also be plenty of other sports, enough to satisy everyIxxiy. besides free shows.' and all sorts of street attractions. There Kill be dancing at the opera house afternoons of bo$h.days. and Wednes­ day evening. On Thursday evening u good show. “The King ol Tramps,” will hold forth, with dancing after the performance. There will also be a free show on a big open-air Dial­ form, afternoon and evening of both days, and it is expected that good sjieakera will be secured to help enter­ tain and instruct the crowd. The harvest festival was such a suc­ cess last year, and the people who at­ tended were SO well pleased, ll- il tb* re will undoubtedly be much larger crowds than ever before, and Nash­ ville promises that uo one who comes will go away disappointed. What is promised on the bills will be fully carried out, so watch for the programs which will be out in ample lime.

The issue is one entirely of fact and one somewhat difficult under the proof to determine. , I do not think it will be of any benefit to either of the parties to set forth the evidence in the case or the facts found by the court to be proven. The gist of the matter is as to whether Levi • Kenyon pa Id complain­ ant on that day 82700 in payment of the discharged mortgages and the Yourex mortgage assigned to said Kenyon. He says he did. She said he did not. To find either way will lead to some, unnatural conclusions or in other words to'find either way will establish as a fact or facts in the case some un­ natural business procedure. A careful consideration of the entire case and the proofs offered and re­ ceived lead me to the conclusion that the contention] of the complainant is not the truth in the case, and I do not think she has established the claim of her bill.

The Lentz Table company resumed work at their factory yesterday morning, after a two weeks’ vacation, during whichAime they have installed a now four-valve Atlas engine, which is now pulling the machinery of the plant, and doing it easily. The new engine is a fine piece oi machinery and is a valuable addition to the plant. It is the intention to add another boiler in the near future, as the one now in use has barely sufficient capacity to furnish the new engine with steam. During the shut­ down another cut-off saw has "Uben added, as well as Several other new machines, which will add largely to the capacity of the plant. And at that the plant is not large enough to properly handle the amount of business the company is doing. Last year they set their stakes to do *150,000 worth of business. The end of the season showed that they had done 8165,000, or *15,000 above the mark. This year they have’ set their aim at *200,000, with good prospects of reaching it. At this rale- of increase, it will be but a short time before more room will be needed, and in fact the subject of more buildings is even now being con­ sidered. They are adding many new patterns to their line, a goodly pro­ portion of which are of a much higher' grade than they have hitherto unide. The general excellence of their goods is universally recognized in the trade, and the demand for them is constantly on the increase. Very few towns of the size of Nash­ ville have "such iin .excellent manu­ facturing institution, and Nashville people are justly proud of it. SCHOOL BOARD AND TEACHERS. The school board held a meeting Thursday evening of last week and organized for the year by the election of the following officers: President, C. A. Hough." Secretary, Henry C. Glasner.

It was an hour <m which-he had evidently counted much: it was the triumph of his resurrection and home-coming. and he chuckled as he twirled the knob in the steel door. Then Bates stepped forward and helped him pull the door open, Jltscloeing a narrow steel chest, upright and held in place by heavy bolts clamped into the chimney. It was filled with packets of papers tied, neatly with tape. “Jack," said my grandfather, shak­ ing pis head, “you wouldn’t Im* an architect, awl you’re not much of an engineer, either, or you’d have seen that that paneling‘was heavier than was necessary.

"But you found the Door of Bewilder­ ment and Pickering s notes, and that’s something." “No; I didn’t even find that .Dono­ van deserves the credit. But how did you ever come to build that tunnel, If you .don't mind tolling me?" Ho laughed gleefully. "That was original I j a trench for natural gas pipes. There was once a large pumping station on the site of this house, with a big trank main run­ ning off across country to supply the towns west pf here. The gas was e«haustfed, and the pi^es were taken up before I began to build.- I should never hgve thought of that tunnel tn the world If the trench hadn't suggest­ ed it. I merely deepened and widened it a little and plastered it with cheap cement as far as .the -chapel; and that little room there where I put Picker­ ing’s notes had once been the collar of a house built for tho superintend­ ent of the gas plant. I never had any Idea that 1 should use that passage as a means of getting into my own house, but Marian met me at tie station, told me that*there, 'was trouble here, and came with me through the .chapel Into the cellar, 'and through the hidden stairway that winds around thb chim­ ney from that room where we keep the candle-sticks.” "But who was the ghost?” I demand­ ed, "If you ,were rohlly alive and in Egypt?” Bates laughed now. “Oh. 1 was the ghost! I went through there occasionally to stimu­ late your curiosity about the house. And you nearly caught me once!" "One thing more, if we're not wear­ ing you out—I'd like to know? whether Sister Theresa owes you any money.", My grandfather turned upon Picker­ ing with blazing eyes. “You scoundrel, you Infernal scoun­ drel. Sister Theresa never borrowed a cent cif me in her life! And you have made war on that woman—’’ His rage choked him. He told Bates to close the door of the steel chest, and then turned to me. “Where are those notes of Picker­ ing's?” he demanded; and 1 brought the packet "Gentlemen. Mr. Pickering has gone’ to ugly lengths tn this affair, flow many murders have you gentlemen committed?” "We were about to begin actual kill­ ing when you arrived,” replied Larry,, grinning. "The sheriff got all his men off the premises more or less alive, sir.” said Bate*. "That is good. .It was all a great mistake.—a very great mistake; I had no Idea such things could happen,"— and my grandfather turned to Picker­ Ing"Pickering, what a contemptible scoundrel you are! I lent you that 1300,000 to bay securities to give you better standing in your railroad enter­ prises. and the last time I saw you, you got me to release the collateral so you could raise money to buy more shares. Than. after I died"—he chuckled—“you thought you’d find and destroy the notes and that would end the transaction; and If you had been smart enough to find them you might have had them and welcome. But as it is, they go to Jack. If he shows any mercy on yon in collecting them he’s not the- boy I think he Is.” Pickering rose, seized his -hat and backed away toward the ahattered library door. He paused for a moment, his face livid with rage. "You old tool!" bo screamed at my grandfather. ‘You old lunatic, I w’ah to God I had never seen you! No wan­ der you camo hack to life! You're a tricky old devil and too mean to die!” He turned toward me with some sim­ ilar complaint ready at hie tongue’s end; but Stoddard caught hrm by the sohulders and thrust him out upon the terrace.

VOLUME XXXIV NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, JULY 20, 1907. Tocnl Hrius There’s a Heap 'o Satisfaction In knowing that your funds are properly cared . for and . in knowing that your money is at your command any time you want it. There are many schemes for getting rich fast, but they are all chances. If you feel like taking chances with your hard-earned cash, then these schemes will appeal to you, but if you appreciate *the money you have earned and would rather have the spending of it yourself than to turn-it over to some smooth grafter to spend for you, then you will look into the merits of the good, safe bank.

Mrs Catherine Selbach. John B. Anderson. Abraham Eddy, XV Illlam Beals, Mrs. Nellie Dalson and Mrs. Catherine Smith. All are residents of lonla. Ionia Is in Mourning. Sunday was a day -of grief and mourning in the little city of Ionia, which is 130 miles west of Detroit Mayor John N. Bible says he esti­ mates that one In every 50 of thtf city’s Inhabitants was either killed or injured In the wreck. All of Saturday night members ot a citizens' commit­ tee. which was appointed when the extent of the catastrophe was realized, were ftt work visiting tbe homes of the dead and Injured and arranging for medical attention and assistance where it was necessary. All of the City's normal activities have prac­ tically been suspended and every one is devoting attention to the wreck vic­ tims. How the Disaster Occurred. The passenger train, of 11 cars, was bringing the Pere Marquette auopem­ ployes of Ionia and their families to Detroit for their annual excursion, it was running at high speed down a grade when it met the freikht train head on. The locomotives were smashed and behind them six cars of the passenger train lay piled In a hopeless wreck. Four of tho passenger coaches re­ mained on the track undamaged and were used to convey the dead and in­ jured to Ionia. One ccach was un­ damaged. with only its forward truck off the rails.' These were the rear five cars. The two coaches next ahead of these were telescoped. One of these was the smoker, where most of the victims were riding. Freight Crew Blamed. Responsibility is put squarely onto the crew of the freight train by of­ ficials of the road. One of them, who arrived at the scene of the wreck soon after the accident, took from the crew of the freight the orders under which it was running. They clearly showed the position of the passenger excur­ sion train and that the'freight bad en­ croached on the other train's running time. The special train was due at Salen at 9:18 a m. and at Plymouth at 8;>t a m. It passed Salem on time. The time caed of the special was train order, and this order.

Steunenberg In his opening sentence. He declared it was Gov. Steunenberg’s fortune dur­ ing his administration to stand in the forefront of a labor war in the Coeu.r d'AJones. Perhaps, be said, the situation de­ manded ail that Lhe governor did. Per­ haps it did not. "1 do not know," declared Mr. Richardaou, “and 1 shall not attempt to say. But at any rate, for the first time In the administration of Ameri­ can justice, the bull pen was called Into being. Gov. Steunenberg's course was condemned ou the one side and praised on the other, as the members .of the two hostile camps view the matter." Mt.

At the evening sacslon Mr. Richard­ son said he would do all he could to abridge his remarks on account of the Intense heat The contention of the defense, he declared, is that no mat­ ter whether Orchard committed tbe crimes to which he confessed or not, no connection has been shown be­ tween Orchard and the defendant at the bnr. Concluding his discussion of tbe Vindicator mine explosion, he de­ clared again that the preponderance of testimony showed it r.q be, an acci­ dent. Orchard's testimony as to receiving money from the Western Federation of Miners for crime was not cor­ roborated by a single witness, he as­ serted. and should not be considered.; As-to tho coining of militia to Crip­ ple Creek, Attorney Richardson said they came at the behest and in the ’ service of the Mine Owners' associa­ tion. whose members were assessed so much a month'til buy the certifi­ cates of indebtedness issued by the state. Frank About Steve Adams. Richardson charged tha'. the Inde­ pendence depot explosion was the re­ sult of a plot by the mine owners to extirpate, root and branch, the West­ ern Federation of Miners, which was trying to control wages and secure work for Its members under proper conditions. Answering Mr. Hawley's taunt tn hla opening address as to why tbe defense had not put Steve Adams on the stand. Richardson declared he wanted to be perfectly frank. "It would have been a case of dog eat dog. and Hawley and Borah knew IL Under tbe same Influences that worked on Orchard they secured a confession from Adams which he re­ pudiated. They have the confessions and we have the repudiation. Tbe whole truth, gentlemen, is that one was afraid to put him on the stand and the other didn't dare to." BRINGING BACK THE MAGILLS.

VOLUME XXXIV Total Mews There’s a Heap 'o Satisfaction In knowing that your funds are ’ properly cared for and in knowing that your money is at your command any time you want it. There are many schemes for getting rich fast, but they are all chances. If you feel like taking chances with your hard-earned cash, then these schemes will appeal to you, but if you appreciate * the money you have earned and would rather have the spending of it yourself than to turn it over to some smooth grafter to spend for you, then you will look into the merits of the good, safe “bank. Threes per cent interest is all that can safely be paid as interest on money by any bank. . When you get more than that you can safe­ ly figure that your money is being used in speculation to make the interest that is paid to you. This bank pays 3 per cent interest, compounded quarterly, on saving deposits, and the financial re­ sponsibility of the stockholders of the Fanner’s & Merchants Bank is ample to stand all liabilities of the institution. There’s a a heap *o satisfaction in having your funds in this bank. We want your account—we want to help you financially, and our facilities and resources will enable us to do so. OFFICERS G. A.

The rfiost eminent medical scientists are unanimous in the conclusion that the generally accepted limitation of human life is many years below the attainment possible with the ad­ vanced knowledge of which the race is now possessed. The critical period, that determines its duration, seems to be lietween 50 and 80; the proper care of the body during this decade cannot be loo strongly urged: carelessness then being fatal to longevity.

The gates of a down­ town elevated’ train were half closed when an old woman with sparse gray hair and deeply seamed cheeks placed one foot on the car platform. The gateman tried to close the gate, but ehe was half way on. He gave vent to some muttered words expressive of his displeasure, to which the old wom­ an paid no attention. She fairly fell down on her seat, for the exertion had been too much for her. In a little 'While, when she bad recovered her breath, she glanced about her In a furtive way. Having apparently satis­ fied herself that no one was watching her with a special purpose, she hug­ ged up to her breast a disreputable old muff which had weathered some winters and gave bold • vldenoe of a close acquaintance with the moth fam­ ily. Indeed, there were only tufts of fur here, and there, but the article •erred Its purpose. Every one wondared, however, why the poor old wom­ an with her thin form and worn-out dress was so attached to It. Finally the muff answered those quselions of Its own account, for just before the train bad reached the next ataUon a plaintlve "Meow" was waft­ ed on the air to the ears ot the guard who stood near. Tho old woman fair­ ly shriveled with guilt, for she knew that no animals were permitted there. To make matters worse, the first cat­ call was followed by a series of more emphatic ones—protests regarding the strangeness of the situation. This was too much. The passengers laughed and the guard came angrily upon the scene ot action. All eyas were directed toward tbe old wom­ an, and to her he addressed his re­ marks In choice English. ‘ “Who's got the cat?"- he demandad. Silence, while all waited deThe cat answered for herself tn heart-rending tones, which, however, had not the slightest effect on tbe man. She stuck out her head and proved to be old and poor, like her mistreM. Besides, she had only one "See here, youse,” siCd the gatenmn. threateningly, "shaking hi? flat in the face of the cat's protector, "/ouse can gel out at the next station. •‘Oh. please, Mr. Conductor, don’t make me leave." sobblagly pleaded the old woman. "I know it a.‘n't just ter hire a carriage, and I wm afraid to send her on lhe wagon, bo there was nothin' else fer me ter do. You see," she added appealingly to her listeners, "we're movin' to-day. I’ve had this cat ten years, and 1 love her like she was my own child." "Ha! ha! listen to that!" exclaimed the guard sarcastically. "Think of the wasted affection!" ’ "You know." continued the old wom­ an. riot noticing him, "If you had a cat fer ten years, you know what you would have done.” > "Youse ken bet I* do.” glibly an­ swered the man “Inter the river fer here. Now, see here,” he said rough­ ly, “out youse go wld der animal." “But mister," begged the woman. "I’ve got to go way down town. 1 can't walk." "Youse has heard my orders. Off yer go at the next station." Suiting the action to the word, tor the train was stopping, he held the gate open for her to pass ouL While the old woman was trying to get to her feet a kind-faced. welJ-dreesed woman pushed her back Into her seat, and walking up to the guard, said: "She'll do nothing of the sort, and 1 will see that she stays on this "He”' sneered tbe man. "who are you. and what have you ter do Fdd d" case? I’ll have youse both arrested." He then told a man to bring an of­ ficer. While the train waited the argument continued, and the old wom­ an's champion listened to some abu­ sive hinguage. when suddenly things took an Interesting turn. A good-na­ tured Irishman stepped aggressively to tbe front "What tills lady says goes, and if she says the cat stays, it does, and If it doesn't I'm here to see that It Is carried out" he asserted with a care­ less disregard for clearness of expres­ sion and a threatening display of fists. “What's this old woman and net cat to youse’'' demanded tbe guard. "Nothin' at all," answered the Irish­ man,’ "but this here lady I da know.” Then with a wink for the lady's bene­ fit alone: "She's Mrs. Patchouli, and i auro It’s her husband that's got the power to make you lose yer job. If । you only'knew it. If the cat goes. I you go after it Understand that” The guard concluded that there might be some truth in the Irishman's ; threat. Besides, the passengers were complaining about the delay, and no i policeman apptared. The train started on its way. "Mrs. Patchouli” left the car at , Forty-second street, and as she did so the old woman called out: "Heaven re­ ward you, ma’am, for what you’ve done tills day.” # And the Irishman said: “Good-day, Mrs. Patchouli Have do fear, for 1*11 stand by until the cat The Nashville ball team added two Vermontville teams, making a total of Eaton tRapids and Vermontville eight won and four lost.

State Savings Bank, COUNCIL STARTED THE BALL ROLL• ING AT THE MEETING MON­ DAY EVENING. SURVEYORS TO COMMENCE SOON The Matter will go to the Voters to Decide Some Time ' Next Spring. At the meeting of the common coun­ cil Monday night It was decided to give the people of the village a chance to decide whether they want a sewer system or not.’ The Riggs A Sher­ man company of Toledo, Ohio, some time ago made the village a proposi­ tion to make the (necessary surveys, plats, grades, maps, and working filans for the construction of a sewer or the sum of 9260, and it was decid­ ed to allow them to go on with the work, and the clerk was instructed to notify the firm to commence the work at once. After this work is finished a pretty close estimate of the.cost can be made and the matter put up to the voters in a rpore intelligent manner. In all probability it will cost in the neighborhood of ten thousand dollars to establish a complete system, and there is no doubt that there will be some who will think this a large sum to expend for sewers, but when it is put up to them that a sewer will be more than self-supporting and that a good share of this money will come back the first year in permits it will not look so expensive. There are many who believe that a sewer will be one of the best things the village could possibly put it now and that it will cost a little more titan they had an idea it would will make no "difference with their vote in 'the matter. We were' informed by the engineer who was here several weeks ago.that Nashville is admirably situ­ ated to have a good sewer system and that the cost will not be so great as it is in many towns, as the topography of the village is such that the depth of the pipe win be very uniform and the digging easy on account of the kind of soil. Let’s all get together now and help this thing along. It is in keeping with the growth of the village and with the enterprise that the majority of the people of ’ the village show. Nashville is growing into one of the best town1?, of its size in the state, as well as the cleanest, and the sewer system will help us further toward growing still larger and cleaner. The finance committee of the har­ vest festival asked the council to grant the saloons of the village the keeping.open one honr later on the two nights of the harvest festival, and the request was granted. Ed Brumm has purchased a lot of Mrs. Kellogg on the north side and* asked permission .to do some grading on the sidewalk plat in front of the same. The matter was referred to the street committee.

Mr. Potter may be pointed to with pride as a product of the dis­ trict which ail wish him to represent. . He was born in Maple Grove town­ ship, this county, August 1, 1869. He attended district school until he was sufficiently prepared to enter the high school of this village, from which ne was afterward graduated. He started his career as teacher of a country school in Assyria township, then went to the normal at Ypsilanti (o further prepare himself for the work, becom­ ing afterward superintendent of schools at Harrison. But during his boyhood he had^other longings. He wanted to become a lawyer. AS he became older this desire grew. He studied law while teaching, and was admitted to the bar in 1894, was grad­ uated from the U. of M. in 1895, and has since practiced in Hastings, his law partner being Hon. Philip T. Colgrove. He is married -and has four children. It was at the urgent request of his friends, both republican and democratic, who recognized his fitness for the position, that he consented to become a candidate for the nomina­ tion. His many friends in Barry and Eaton counties," and especially in thia section where he has been known since boyhood, will be proud to see him a member of the constitutional convention, which, if made up of men as capable and as well qualified as “Will" Potter, will give Michigan a constitution second to that of no state in the union.

The second game played at River Park last Tuesday was somewhat of a one-sided affair, as the score will show. The boys were a little "leary" of this Woodland aggregation and started in to play the game of their lives, and they came near doing it, as only t*syo errors were made by them and they hit like fiends, when hits meant runs. Brown was in fine con­ dition and had excellent control. Three of the five hits made by the 'Woodland team were of the scratchy order, and at no time during the .game weretne visitors dangerous excepting in two innings, and in those was when Nashville's errors came. Scofield, who pitched for the visitors, is a mighty good little pitcher, with good control, but the home team had their batting clothes on and were hitting the ball unmercifully hard and won the game truly on their merits. The visitors were shut out up to the ninth inning and it looked like the home team would hold them to no scores, but at about this stage the hoodoo ap­ peared a,nd one lonely run was regis­ tered against them. “Grandpa" Glasner made two hits, one of them & two-sacker, and came in with two of the runs. Purchis also got a single and a double and made two runs, which will excuse him for dropping Munion’s high fly in the ninth, al­ lowing the'Woodland boys Jo score. There were a goodly number of l>eople out to witness tne game and they were well repaid for attending as the game was exciting almost every minute.

The principal objec­ tion to the bsw In Its present form is the uncertainty as to the jurisdiction of the court which h creates and whether the Juvenile court’ Is to have the JurlBdlctton in all juvenile cases or whether the amendment co the title which was Inserted at the last moment to the senate was with the in­ tention of leaving with the probate court all cases to which children art to be sent to tbe state school at Cold­ water. The other objections raised by Mr. Bird I think of little Impor­ tance." Railroads Will Abide by Law1. F. W. Stevcna. general solicitor for । the Pore Marquette railroad, has sent a letter to C. L Glasgow, state com­ missioner of railroads, announcing In behalf of Receiver Hannon and the road's stockholders that the Pere Mar­ quette will not contest tbe recently enacted two-cent fare law. The law goes into effect September 28. Mr. Stevens says to his letter that the de­ sire to abide by the public sentiment in Michigan in favor of a two-cent rate outweighs the "well-grounded be­ lief of the management that such a rate is unreasonably low In Michigan whore applied practically to all roads without reference to paasenger earn­ ings or territory reached ” Tbe letter says further that the two-cent rate Is accepted tn the hope that the in­ creased patronage predicted by Gov, Warner and Commissioner Glasgow win be realized and that in the “dis­ tant future" the net earnings may permit a fair return in dividends upon the value of the property used In the passenger service. Com Act Unconstitutional. The 3500 appropriation for the "Corn Improvement association," which alms to increase the cultiva­ tion of corn, has been declared uncon­ stitutional by Attorney General Bird, who calls tt class legislation. He bases his opinion on the supreme court decision in the beet sugar bounty case, which held that public money could not be used for private purposes. Humane Officials Form State Society. A state humane society was per­ fected by humane officials to conven­ tion here. Officers elected were: President, Frank D. Taylor; secre­ tary. Mrs. Angelina F. Branch, Manis­ tee; treasurer, C. 8. Udell, Grand Rap­ ids; executive committee, R. A. Finmer, Ann Arbor; Dr. J. W. Hagerdorn, Lansing; Dr. Joseph McCarthy, Kala­ mazoo, and Leonard Laurense, of De­ troit More Tracks for Fair. One of the great difficulties encoun­ tered by the exhibitors at tbe Michi­ gan state fair at Detroit in previous years was loading and unloading stock on account of a lack of sufficient side track. This year the management has closed a contract to put in three ad­ ditional side tracks 800 feet long, making five in all. The new tracks will accommodate 60 cars at a time, or a total of 100 on all the tracka. Two of the new sidings will be for the livestock department and three for engines and heavy machinery. New State Oil -inspector. Gov. Warner announced the ap­ pointment of Frank 8. Neal of North­ ville as state oil inspector to succeed Charles L Benjamin, of Saginaw.

Nevertheless. it ts understood that the state authorities expect that tbe Pere Marquette and possibiv one’or two other lines will Contest the law and preparations are being made to defend tbe enactments to tbe oourte If necessary. Qravel Rate Settled. Through the , efforts of Railroad Commissioner Glasgow the matter of a rate on gravel from New Hudson to Detroit has been adjusted satisfac­ torily, the Grand Trunk railway hav­ ing made the rate of one and one-half cents per hundred, which is the same rate that will hereafter be charged to all producers of gravel at an equal distance from Detroit Up to this time the Grund Trunk company had refused to make a definite rate for a prospective shipper at New Hudson who was prevented from engaging in the business because of the uncer­ tainty of the company's intentions.

"I had four hogs to sell and advertised them In the village - paper. Half a dosen people came out to see them, and among them was a widow. She wanted me to ewear to the bre«d, the weight and the fact that the bogs were in good health. She wanted to be assured of their good eyeeight and hearing. She wanted to be satisfied that they were good-natured hogs. She wanted. me to sign a paper that I had ralseu the porkere Instead of stealing them. When I had done all this and the sale was about effected she suddenly turned and walked away. 'Helio, now, what's the matter?' I call­ ed after her.

X—The French and Spanish governments are acting Ln concert and with great promptness to meet the situation that has arisen In Morocco. A warship of each of these powers la now In the harbor of Casa­ blanca, and three French and one Spanish men-ol-war are on tbe way to Morocco. France has proposed to Spain the immediate landing of French and Spanish troops at Casablanca, and In anticipation of a favorable reply has prepared three transports at Toulon to convey 2^00 men and 800. horses to Morocco. What further steps, if any, are contemplated have not been made public. Slight delay and embarrass­ ment in meeting the situation are caused by the absence of Premier Clemenceau, who is at Karlsbad tak­ ing the cure. Limited by Convention. An official communication Issued Friday says that/tbe action of the powers In Morocco is limited to that granted, them under the Algeciras con­ vention. Up to midnight no telegram has been received from Tangier reporting the arrival there of fresh news from Casablanca. A dispatch received here from Oren. Algeria, reports that the State bank at Tangier has been pillaged and that a British consular employe has been captured between Tangier and Elkeare. There is no confirmation of this news from Tangier. Clothcraft two-piece suite are just about right. They come in Single- and double breasted, and are made of tropical weight worsted flan­ nels, serges, the non coat-front and are tailored and styled in the usual Cloth­ craft manner.

Aug. a.—The government announces that tn addition to the cruiser Infanta Isabel,. which already has arrived at Tangier, the cruiser Dor Alvaro de Bazan, now at Las Palmas, has been ordered to the MoGermans Not Pleased. Berlin. Aug. X—The French charge d’affaires here visited the foreign of­ fice Friday and informed Foreign Sec­ retary Tschirsky of the situation at Casablanca and the intention of the French government to send warships to Morocco. Die Post, which often reflects the views of the government, discusses the Moroccan situation at length, con­ cluding Its article with the statement that Germany will interpose no un­ necessary hindrance to France if it is evident that comprehensive measures are required to restore order. Die Post, however, is little pleased with the turn affairs have taken, and says that If France set out in the begin­ ning to secure control of Morocco, fate seems to be malting the way easy for her by constantly bringing up new excuses for her to settle more firmly Into the saddle. OIL TRUST METHODS SCORED. Price. Raised and Great Profits Ac­ quired by Unfair Means. Washington. Aug. 6.—Significant revelations’'were made public Sunday In a report submitted to President Roosevelt by Herbert Knox Smith, commlsleoncr of corporations, con­ cerning the operations of the Standard Oil company. Commissioner Smith says: “The Standard Oil company is re­ sponsible for the course of prices of petroleum and Its products during the last 25 years. The Standard has con­ sistently used .Its power to raise the price of oil during the last ten years, not only absolutely, but also relatively to the cost of crude oii.” The Increase In annual profits of the Standard from 1896 to 1904 was over $27,000,000. The report says: “The total dividends paid by the Standard from 1882 to 1906 were 9551,­ 922,904, averaging thus 24.15 per cent per year. Tbe dividends, however, were much less than the total earn­ ings. It Is substantially Certain that theentlrenetearnings of the Standard from 1882 to 1906 were at least 1790,­ 000,000, and possibly much more, 'These enormous profits have been based on an Investment worth at the time of Its original acquisition not more than 175,000,000." In his letter to President Roosevelt, transmitting the report. Commissioner Smith says: “Tbe following facts are proven: The Standard has not reduced mar­ gins during the period in which it has been responsible, for the prices of ofL During tbe last eight years cov­ ered by thia report (1898 to 1905) it has raised both prices and margins. Its domination has not been acquired or maintained by its superior efficiency, but rather by unfair competition and by methods economically and morally unjustifiable."

Lanslng.-r-When Attorney General Bird commenced to make arrange­ ments for-a surrey of the MichiganWisconsin boundary line in accord­ ance with a concurrent resolution of the legislature authorising tbe em­ ployment of surveyors and tbe commencemeoh ot proceedings to reestab­ lish tbe state line, ft was discovered that the resolution of the legislature, while properly passed, had never been enrolled and sigmed by the governor as the constitution requires. A con­ tract has been entered into subject to the approval ot the board ot state au­ ditors for tbe employment of Prof: J. B. Darts, of the University ot Michi­ gan. to conduct the -survey. and the attorney general is disposed to proceed with it, taking tbe ineffective resolu­ tion tn the nature ot a suggestion from the legislature. It la believed that with the cooperation of the gov­ ernor the attorney general baa the power Independent of the action of the legislature, to make tbe survey State Fair Features. Perhaps the notable state Qdr fea­ ture this year, or at least that which will first attract attention, will be the grounds themselves. All this’sum­ mer a large force of men has been working on roads, walks, lawn making iind ah rub and floral embellishment These are expanses of green lawn that would Justify signs to keep off the gruss if It were possible to so manage the crowds that past indica­ ttoM show will overrun the grounds this year. There has been an tocrease in entries in every fine oot»seqoeut on liberal premiums and tbe good results from preceding years. I deemed proper. The territory, in­ volved In tbe dispute over the bound­ ary line is about. 600 square miles and contains a number of iron mines and rich mineral depoBlta that are like­ ly to be developed. Advice- by Attor­ ney General Bird to the state tax commission not to take cognizance of complaints by unequal assessments made by electric railway companies until that sectton of the Galbraith law, which provides tar the taking of com­ I plaints only from resident tax-payers, I can be tested in a suit to be com­ menced shortly. It is believed that tbe provision of 'the law limiting complaints of assessments to resident tax payers cannot be sustained under the constitution aa equality Is the ba­ sis of all-tax proceedings In Michigan. I An old bond of the state of the riot­ age of 1838 made its appearance at tbe state treasury. It waa for $3,000 and was Issue*1 for internal improve­ ments when tbe state was engaged In the building of tbe Michigan Central railroad. The last of tbe bond issue tell due In 1863, and since that time >19,000 ot these bonds have been out- j standing somewhere. Repeated calls l were made tor the presentation of the I outstanding bonds, but none appeared. It waa thought that they were lost or destroyed. Tbe bond which has Just been sent In came from an official of the Georgia Southern & Florida rail­ way. who sold that the security was the property ot a friend who lives in England. The bond was signed by Stevens T. Mason as governor and Randolph Manlng as secretary of state. It la printed on old parchment and is quite a curiosity. Whether the state will pay the bond Is a question. It Is outlawed. In 1899 the 'legislature passed a Joint resolution requiring the । holders of the missing bonds to pre-! aent them within three months or I they would not be paid. The last In-1 Btallment of Interest waa paid on tbe bond presented In 1842. tlauously since frost went out of the ground, and is now in the finest of shape for tbe making of good records. Tbe purees are bringing first-class en­ tries and a program that will interest horse lovers throughout tbe wack is assured. There win be a much larger exhibit than usnal of machinery and agricultural implements and most of tbe space in this department has been taken. In the horticultural building there will be 12 additional large tables on which to spread out tbe more numemus displays coming; and in every other 'department—horses, cattle, sheep, hogs, poultry, farm products and everything else—the story is the same, a keeper interest and more ex­ hibits. A number of the northern Michigan counties, knowing they have the goods to show, have made approprlaUons. through tbe boards of supervifiors. to prepare and keep on view through tbe fair exhibitfl of the pro­ ducts ot their sections, satisfied that they can show farmers that there is plenty of good and cheap land in Michigan to warrant attention and en­ deavor. There will be six rest tents, one of which will be conducted by the Temple theater management, with a W. C. T. U. tent as a neighbor. The Order ot the Eagles will also be about in proximity to tbe theater tent, and the Maocabet-B wfll hare two tents. A now fire department building has been erected, and two large tents will seve aa hospitals. ' Commlssloa Asks Decision. Attorney General Bird has been called upon by the state tax commission to decide whether, under the law, attorneys for electric railway companies may make complaint of un­ equal assessments and secure a re­ view of the tax rolls In the townships through which roads' represented by them may run. The question becomes Important In view of the provision of the law that only "resident taxpayera" may complain ot assessments. Tbe attorney general may bold that this provision of the law which is a part of tho Galbraith act partially knocked out by the supreme court is not constitutional, as it does not'givo all taxpayers the equal benefit of the laws of the state.

Anyone can see that if the drag to used Intelligently and at the right time tbe ruts will be filled up. the surface water will run off, and the wind will dry out the road in a short time; and instead of wearing down these lumps by driving over them you prevent their formation. -It'to not always possible to avoid rough roads in winter; but if each fanner had before hl* mind the definite idea of having a smooth road in front of hls farm, and would drag at tbe right time; late in the fall, he would have smooth roads. • When driving along a road one day we complimented a farmer in the fine condition of tbe roads in hls neigh­ borhood. He said: “Yea, where they are dragged; otherwise not." We soon came to the end of the dragging and these was a road rough from one side to tbe other except a tolerably smooth place that had been worn down by pausing teems. readers who do not know what can be done by these modern methods may . shake their beads aod believe this to be en­ tirely, theoretical. \Ve will not argue the question; wo never da Stmpty follow our euggeetlocs and be con­ vinced.

The Greatest Inven­ tion of the Age for Suffering Humanity. Dr. M. E. Blair,^from W. R. M. University, Cleveland, Ohio, will’ be al the Walcott House, Nashville, Mich., Mondeo, Tuesday, Wednesday. Thursday and Friday, August, 19, 20, 21, 22 and 23, for the purpose of extracting teeth without pain or sleep. Dr. Blair uses no chloroform, ether. Vitalized air. cocaine or sotnnifom, but extracts teeth absolutely painless, as many patients from Olivet, Bellevue, Grand Ledge, Charlotte and Lake Odes­ sa will gladly testify. Dr. Blair extracted 1000 teeth at Charlotte 4 years ago, 500 in one week at Charlotte 2 years ago. The doctor comes here from Belle­ vue where he has been for 2 weeks, and has extracted 1000 teeth and the patients have nothing but words of praise for him. You now have an oppor­ tunity to get your defective teeth extracted absolutely painless, right at homev if you suffer longer, blame yourself. The Dr. has made a specialty of ex­ tracting teeth for 17 years, and has made for himself a national reputation as a painless extractor. Dr. Blair has invented a method different from any other method in existence, and does exactly what he advertises to do, invitesinvestigation, and places the means within your reach by publishing the names of many patrons for whom he has done work for. If they were nou true he would not be allowed to do so*, write or telephone him and then goand tbe doctor. No soreness of the gums or physical debility thereafter. Absolutely painless and free of charge if not satisfactory to the patient. Tbe Ito's method cannot be found in anv other dental office in the state. The Dr. has offered you everything that is fair; anyone needing work done should not hesitate to call and see him. It is estimated by physicians that 90 per cent of stomach trouble, indigestion, and mal nutrition is caused by decayed teeth.

Don’t think that a pig eats merely to live. ■ A wet, slippery pen often makes a lame hog. It is well to shift the hog pasture every year or two. In crossing, use males from the smaller of the two breeds. Have you any animals.on tbe farm that return such large profits for the money Invested as sheep? Keep the best pasture for the lambs. Clover is good, so is a fresh blue grass pasture, but an old one is productive of worms and possibly death. Never buy. a poor sheep; you have oo time to fool with IL Let your neigh­ bors experiment and throw away their feed if they wish Buy the best qual­ ity you can. but try to have the whole flock uniform. It Is best to have salt boxes in the pasture where the sheep can find them at will, but if not done, make a practice of salting them every Bunday morning. You will get acquainted with your sheep then, and careful shep-< herds know It pays to promote friend­ ship between flock and flock-mastdr.

It requires bran, mid­ dlings and ground oats to make healthy pigs, and the sooner the farm­ er learns this the larger will be hls profits. i troublesome, onor it is permitted to effect a lodgment upon the sheep. It is not a common ailment upon farms in the east, but is sufficiently preva­ lent upon the ranges of the west to make the danger of Infection great In fact, upon the ranges, scab and starvation are the two' principal dis­ eases among the flocks. The scab mite is an insect so small that it to not quite visible to the naked eye. lives upon the skin, and by. irritating the surface, it causes a flow of the fluid npon which it lives, and finally, .by continuing this irrita­ tion. scabs or crusts are formed be­ neath which the insect deposits its eggs. In the course of two or three days, says Rural New Yorker, these eggs hatch. The newly-born parasite becomes adult in 15 days. Each fe­ male parasite will lay about 15 eggs, 10 of which will bring forth females and the other five males. The new parasites, as soon as they are batched, migrate and Infect the ad­ jacent territory, which makes' the scab patch spread, by the constant advance of Ita circumference, .and the eggs of new parasites arc deposited upon posts or boards upon which the sheep rub themselves, and’ thus are ready to seize any advantage ta again locate them­ selves upon other sheep, when they in turn become centers of Infection. Ger­ lach. a German authority, computes that in three months a single female scab insect may become respqilsible for the existence of 1,500,000 progeny, thus, in 45 days after infection the In­ crease. frojn one parasite might' be 1,500; In 75 days. 150,000, and In 90 days, 1,500,000. As a matter of fact, it requires about 90 days for the scab disease to become well spread and very troublesome after Introduction into a clean flock. SILAGE IN FATTENING 8TEER8. Prof. Thomas Shaw Thinks That Com Silage Cannot Be Beat Tn corn growing areas it is my con­ viction that no food for growing or for fattening steers will prove cheaper or more valuable than corn silage. In saying this I know the opinion ex­ pressed is counter to what many be­ lieve who live In the corn belt, but I will not take buck or modify the statement A steer that Is fattening and that weighs 1,000. pounds should be fed from 30 to 40 pounds of corn silage dally. It goes well with clover hay or alfalfa or apy leguminous fodder. Of the latter five pounds or about that much would be wanted per day. The grain ration, fed ground, would be about a pound or slightly more per day for every pound of the live weight of the steer. The amount mentioned is for a steer after he is on full feed. Leading up to full feed, considerably less would be used. The meal should be fed on the silage. When the silage | is put in the feed box, the meal is ‘thrown over It and the mea! and silage are mixed while they are being eaten, which means that all Is re­ chewed in chewing the cud. which Is favorable to thorough digestlop. It will not answer to feed only silage as the fodder ration. Some dry fod­ der is necessary as a safeguard, but when the silage is sweet and good. It would be safe to feed somewhat more than the amounts mentioned. Fed Jn suitable amounts the succulence ex­ ercises a favorable Influence on diges­ tion. The day Is certainly coming when there will be a great extension In tbe building of silos, and it cannot come too soon. No other method of saving corn will compare with IL- It utilises the entire producL stalk and grain.

BIG 3% Interest Money at interest is working for you every minnte. Money at interest is the most persistent workerv It works all the time— it works while you play, while you sleep. Do you know that the nickles and dimes you are spending foolishly will earn you some­ thing if you will give them a chance ? Some . people . will remark that “this is a short life, arid we may as well enjoy ourselves.” This is allright in a way, but when i. means that you should spend every cent you earn to buy that enjoyment, then it is all wrong. You should lay aside a share of your earnings for old age. If you will inaugurate a system of saving now it will put you beyond want when you get where you can enjoy life. The Farmers and Merchants bank pays 3 per cent interest on savings deposits, the interest is compounded quarterly. We are carrying the accounts of hundreds of your neighbors ■and want to etart YOU on the road to a competency.

Our mines yield more than 11.500,000,000 and our forests more than 11,000,000,­ 000, and neither of these sources of wealth has been exhausted. The out­ put of our factories, in other than food products, is 112,000,000,000, and no fires have been extinguished.

The pay rolls of our factories and railways aggregate approximately 58.500,000,000. and tlio scale of wages has not been reduced. *ln other words, the real sources of the people’s wealth have not yet been affected, and the ability of industrial concerns to pay dividends is not meas­ ured by the market price of their stocks. Logical reasons for serious conditions are therefore wanting. Psy­ chological reasons are never wanting. The Expected Will Happen.

Georgetown, British Guiana, Aug. 19. —Much excitement has been caused hare by the Invasion of Venezuelan territory by CapL Calder in the com­ mand of a small frontier force from British Guiana, and his seizure of a quantity of balata (the gum of the bullet-tree, used for insulating wires, etc.) which, it is alleged bad been col­ lected on British territory. CapL Calder’s force went down the Barima river and crossed the boundary Into Venezuelan territory, where Capt. Calder, at the point of a re­ volver, demanded that the Venezuelan commissioner surrender to him 4.000 pounds of balata. Th§ commissioner gave up the gum. He has made a pro­ test. bowevor, to President Castro and the British consul here against the seizure of the balata and the in­ vasion of Venezuelan territory. Fears are entertained of retaliation at headquarters. There has been much trouble over the balata trade for some time and the British officials have made’ strong attempts to prevent il­ licit trading in the gum. * TWENTY HURT (N A WRECK.

Its origin can be traced to the adjective bangla (Hindustani), which literally means /’belonging to Bengal.” It is an easy step from this to the manu­ script preserved in the India Office (England), dated 1676, which has az reference to "Bungales or Hoyeils • • • tor all English In the company's service.” Any sketch of a native dwelling in India will show how at first it was not unnatural to bracket "bungales" with "hovels." The word was in the •making, and the buildtag Improved with the word. In 1711 we find a reference to a "Dutch Bungelow" on the shores of the Hugbley/ In the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries, there are references in Anglo-Indian corre­ spondence to wayside houses which are spelled "bungula" and "bungalo,” and in one Instance, in 1809, a journal of residence in India describes the bungalo as a garden house. The most striking reference which tallies with •our own view of the building as de scribed by the word is contained in a book dated 1847, which says: "The bungalows of India are for the most part built of unbaked bricks and cov­ ered with thatch, having the center a hall, the whole being encompassed by an open veranda.” That is prob­ ably the shortest and most complete definition of the broad meaning of the word that can be found. Of course we build bungalows nowadays of many other materials besides bricks; but the latter are used, aun dried, Ln many quarters . of the globe besides India. Primarily, a bungalow is building specially suitable for a hot climate where the broad verandas make cool, shady places for sitting outdoors.—Indoors and Out ' JOYS OF A COLLECTOR.

Starlight, sunlight, moonlight, gas­ light, lamplight, candle light, electric light and now sugar light A phenom­ enon whose cause has not as yet been satisfactorily explained recently was observed by an expert during the course of certain experiments. Disks of loaf sugar were mounted on a lathe and rapidly rotated while a ham­ mer played lightly against them. An almost continuous radiation was thus produced from the sugar. It was shown that the light did not arise from heating the sugar, and it Is be­ lieved to have been caused by some change having taken place in the sugar crystals. The act of crystalliza­ tion Is known to be accompanied sometimes by flashes of light The practical bearing of these experiments is on the question of obtaining arti­ ficial light by methods as yet untried.

Lansing.—The stat© tinder twine plant act was declared valid by the supreme court and Gov. Warner’s sat­ isfaction is plainly evident When At­ torney General Bird advised Auditor General Bradley recently' that there was doubt as to tho validity of th* law. the word “thousand" having been omitted tn on© of the paragraphs of the measure after the bill had been passed by tho legislature and before being signed by the governor, an ef­ fort was at once made to gel the su­ preme court together to pass upon the law. Judges McAlvay. Montgomery, Ostrander. Hooker and Moore received the papers in the case and passed upon the law. Th* matter was pre­ sented by the attorney general who, while of the opinion that the court would sustain the law, still had a doubt sufficient to Justify the advice given to the auditor general not to pay out any part of the appropriation until the question was decided. Justice Montgomery, in the opinion signed by the other four justices who had the matter under consideration says: "It is perfectly manifest that the legislature appropriated >50,000 for the purpose of purchasing, erecting and equipping the necessary buildings, and it Is equally obvious that the >50.000 could not be subtracted from >175, and that the >175 was plainly Intended to mean >175,000 is again made mani­ fest by the fact that in Uje same clause after appropriating >50.000 the legislature further appropriated a re­ maining >125,000, which must be a re­ mainder after deducting >50.000 from >176,000. It is a clerical error which corrects Itself and leaves nothing doubtful. Such clerical errors will not be permitted to defeat the plain In­ tent of the legislature." The decision of the court requires the auditor gen­ eral to pay the claims of the prison board out of the appropriation.

Bugs have undertaken to finish up the Michigan lumber industry. Lum­ ber men have awakened to the fact that the formerly despised tamarack and hemlock are valuable now since the pine hao been cleared away and some more fortunes have been planned. The insects, too, have found that tamarack and hemlock are good. Bugs that feed on, the foliage and a beetle that works its way Into the wood-are doing great damage to the standing timber and an effort Is beiflg made by the state authorities and the government, to devise some way of stopping the slaughter. Prof R. H. Pettit, of the Michigan Agricul­ tural college, has returned from a tour of Investigation in the northern peninsula. The only known remedy for the- beetles are woodpeckers, but the beetles burrow so deeply that the birds cannot get at them. Deaths in State During July.

Notwithstanding this unfair employment of the words there is much of wisdom in the suggestion when properly considered. In the expenditure of Jour hard-earned money there is opportunity to exercise great wisdom and care. Times are good, crops are bountiful, prices are high, and the result is a fair amount of money, and to spend this wisely one should “get next;” that is, we should spend it bo it will bring the best results. We should, in the purchasejof goods, buy those of good quality, goods the reputation of which is well known. Buy them of dealers who oan be relied upon, who can not afford to deceive you, men who are in trade to stay and to whom you will not hesitate to go with them providing for any reason {hey are not right. Even the dealer, as well as yourself, may have been deceived and he will be glad to help you out. “Get next” to this class of business men. “Get next” to which are the best ggods. “Get next” to the fact that these conditions which are most favor­ able for you can only be possible between YOU and your HOME DEALERS. Those who “get - next” to these conditions make their money go the farthest. This is not an advertisement, nor is it addressed to any particular class in town or out, but to all, and I feel that my residence among you and my business experience entitles me to the privilege of offering this suggestion to my customers and my friends, the trade and friendship of all of which I am truly thankful for and proud of.

Here is an example' Worth reading: Mrs. H. Portlensce, B. Street, Che­ boygan,-Michigan, says: “It isover six,years since 1 was cured of kidney complaint by Doan’s * Kidney Pills. At that time I suffered very much from a- disordered condition of the kidney secretions They were very scanty. Contained a heavy sediment and were of a disagreeable odor. My back pained me very much and I could not straighten. It ached-as much during the night as in the day time and I received very little sleep’. In the winter when ,1 caught cold, it was always sure to settle in my kid­ neys and make the trouble worse. A friend advised me to use Doan's Kid­ ney Pills and I procured a box and used according to directions, and they cured me. 1 think a cure of six years’ standing is a good recommen­ dation for Doan's Kidney Pills.’’ For sale by all dealers.

Tte Ifed Ym Hite Alwajt Bought The Reason* Why Green Bone Make* _ _____________ EBQ8- ■_________ It Is not enough that a given food contain a certain per cent of lime or a certain per cent of phosphates; it must also be decided whether these different chemicals can be assimilated by the hen. Dalton, who is indisputa­ ble authority, says: “It is well known that inorganic substances, although they afford the necessary material for vegetation, are not sufficient for the nourishment of animals, .which de­ pend for their support upon elements already combined in the organic form, by the action of the sun’s rays and plant life." That market bones produce wonder­ ful result* when fed to poultry is in­ disputable. The lean meat and gristle form the white of the egg and about 16 per cent of the yolk. The marrow and other fat on tho bones supply the remainder of the yolk. The lime phosphates in the bone yield all the necessary lime, salts for the shell and the necessary phosphates for the interior of the egg. When it Is considered that all the above sub­ stances are found in green bone in a specially digestible condition, far more so than any food supplied by dry meat, corn or whe*L Is it surprising that such glowing reports are ao often heard about thia new food foe poultry?

If he thought to bore several holes'in that part of the barrel nearest the ground so that the water could drain out, he prevented the possibility of a heavy rain flooding the quarters and drowning the chicks. In later years the up-to-date farmer has adopted more modern and more practical quarters for the little chicks and the broody hen. Sometimes the adoption of a good coop mean* the successful Tearing of strong, healthy youngsters instead of stunted birds which can never be more than culls. The brood coop of the present day protect* the brood from wind in cold weather, from driving rains in all sea­ sons and is also capable of admitting a goodly supply of pure air. It is also so constructed that it may be easily cleaned. Most of them have front* of vertical slats and if they are equipped .with tight floors these floors should be made removable in order that the floors may be easily cleaned. If tho floors, however, are not nailed to the coops, the latter may be lifted off and the floors cleaned readily. Again if, no floors are used but the coops are allowed to sit directly on well-drained ground, cleaning the coop is simply a matter of moving it to a fresh location every morning. ■ The Interior of a coop should al­ ways be dry, says The Farmer, and It Is advisable therefore to cover the roof and sides with some sort of wat­ erproof material; for example, some of the prepared roofings or tar paper. To ,prevent the entrance of animals that would kill the chickens a stout frame covered- with’ Cne mesh wire netting may be made to be placed In front of the coop at night so that pro­ tection may be afforded without cut­ ting off the supply of air. An ordinary packing box with each of it6 dimensions about two feet may be made into a satisfactory coop by covering it with rboflng fabric and providing It with a slat front, etc. , 5 6*vr them Aoamon ahd tw TKxrTuartaTwrwiLOfs. -4J5 TO Dir courtTCYTME5un upon power “For over thirty years,” writes a gentleman in Los Angeles, ” I have used Arbuckles’ Coffee. -Many times my family has tried other coffee only to come back to our old reliable, unchange­ able Arbucldes.’ No other coffee lias io our coffee busmen bang to much greater than any corapedtori, m fact. it h larger than the next (our largest fircu in the world combined. package bearing his name.

EVERYTHING IN READINESS FOR A BUSY SCHOOL SEASON. EXCELLENT CORPS OF TEACHERS Some Facts Regarding the- Work ' to be Accomplished and the Assignment* Next Monday will occur the open open-­ ing of the Nashville schools. Super­ intendent Fuller and the board of education have been working hard the past several weeks to get things In readiness for the opening and there is no question but what everything is in pot-pie order. It is the aim of Nash­ ville people that the Nashville schools shall meet the demand for a better ed­ ucation of the young people of the village and vicinity. Everyone in Nashville takes pride in Nashville’s beautiful school build­ ing, and in the class of work that is accomplished in it. , The nigh school course of study is destined to' give a good practical training for citizenship to any who may not pursue higher work. The graduates of the school are admitted to the university of the state without examination. , Non-resident pupils will receive special attention, and be made very welcome. They will be classified ac­ cording to present attainments, and promoted if they show exceptional scholarship. Every effort will be made to adjust their classification that they may receive proper prepar­ ation for pursuing a more advanced course, or:be prepared to meet the de­ mands of every-day life. The laboratory is second to none in neighboring cities and the teachers Kursue laboratory methods as far as i possible to do in the teaching of some studies. The school also has a fine library of over seven hundred volumes. Every pupil in the high school and eighth grade is by virtue of this factu member of the Olympic literary soci­ ety. This society meets on Friday evening and aims to give practice in speaking, debating and other classes of rhetorical work. The meetings are largely attended, and any who have been present will vouch for the ex­ cellent practice here afforded the young people of the community. It rrives pupils some knowledge of par­ i ament ary practice. The work is required of all. 'the course of study has been slight-, ly re-arranged, making it conform more nearly with the uniform course for high schools recommended by the state commission. The studies fall under the heads of mathematics, science. English, history and foreign languages. Four years' work is of­ fered in mathematics, science, Eng­ lish and Isatin, three in history and two in German. A special course in reviews is offered to benefit' those intending to take-teachers' examina­ tion. The teachers for the codling year will be as follows: T. U. Fuller, superintendent. Mr. Fuller will begin his second year in Nashville, and there is no question but what he is the right man in the right place, as his work last year will prove. Ray L. Withenbury of Shelby .is the principal of the high school. He is a graduate of the Ypsilanti normal school and comes highly -recommend­ ed as a teacher. Mary J. Ruthrauff. teacher of lang­ uages, is a resident of Nashville and a graduate of the Kalamazoo normal school. Nell H. Bradley comes here from Grass Lake. She is recommended as an excellent teacher of history and English. The grade teachers are: Minnie Durham, room five; Vesta Lewis, room four; Nina Chappel, room three; Flora Boston, room two; and Josie Buchanan and Florence Grohe the primary and kindergarten. This makes a corps of teachers that the village can well be proud of and there is no question that the reputa­ tion of the Nashville schools will be greatly advanced during the coming year. ________ •.__ ■ THE TRUTH WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER. “In the ninth inning as brutal a piece of work as has ever been seen upon the local grounds was put up by Cole of Sunfield, who was playing with the Nashville team and it only went towards firmly fixing the fact in the minds of all who attend the games that the reputation this man carries with him every where he goes as a player, is that he Is as dirty a player us ever disgraced a baseball uniform. While making a home run be deliberately stepped upon one of Catcher Tracey’s wrists with his spikes and caught. him on the other shoulder with his other foot, making an ugly cut so that he was obliged to retire, Hines finishing the game. It was not only a brutal piece of work, but was also a most contemptible one, and has simply placed this person in such a position that he will never again be allowed to play upon the Vermontville grounds and the local team will absolutely refuse to go into any game where this man is found in a uniform. Vermontville has always had a reputation for clean ball and playing it for the love of good, clean sport and the management does not have to place the boys who play on the team in danger of being seriously injured by such playing. The temper of the spectators was such that had a good leader stepped to the front, Mr. Cole would have been pretty roughly handled by them. In talking of the matter afterwards, Pitcher Speaker; Who was secured from the Kalamazoo learn of the Southern Michigan league hy Nashville to pitch the game, said that it was a disgraceful deal and that no club management in league circles would stand for such .playing on the part of any man, and such acts were not approved of by any one in pro­ fessional base ball." • The above from the Vermontville Echo of last week is an example of downright cussedness that we cannot pass unnoticed. Not because it will cause anyone with good sense to. think that the subject of attack is really a rascal, but because there are some who were not present at thp game and there are some who do not know Mr. Cole, who may think that there is truth in the article. Those who know the fact's will readily recognize that it is but the distorted effusion of a dis­ eased mind, forthat reason we will ' flay but little about it,-for it does no 1 One any particular good to take issue with such infinitesimal manhood. If there was the least semblance of truth in the spasm it would be different, but there is hardly a word of truth in the whole dirty effusion. In the fifst place Cole did not spike Mr. Tracey, as Mr. Tracey himself admitted to the writer. Mr. Hickey, the umpire,stated that be saw nothing in the play that would cause the thought that Cole played “dirty ball." If be had seen any such thing he would have promptly called him out and disquali­ fied him from playing. Mr. Hickey .is ap umpire of exceptional .ability and experience; he saw the play and therefore his word in the matter can­ not be overlooked. Kauffman and Morgan and other players on the Ver­ montville team, who did not want their names mentioned for the reason that they live in Vermontville and do not care to invite the wrath of Fourflusher Curtis, also stated that they deemed the attack upon Mr. Cole as underhanded, unmanly and unsports­ manlike. The fact in the matlcr is, that there is so much yellow in the makeup of this man Curtis that it has got to come out once in a while. Mr. Cole is a ball player, and a mighty good one when in practice. He ls a powerful fellow for a small man . and plays the game for all there is in it, yet all the time he hap been playing with the Nashville team, and in fact in all his ball playing, we can not re­ call where he has ever played “dirty ball.” He has bumped into men who are in the base line where be has been running and has bad a perfect right to do. so. There are a lot of ball players who think they gain some­ thing by blocking a base runner, and it is a detestable trick in base ball. Mr. Cole will not stand for being blocked and as we said last week, the blocker usually gets the worst of the argument. In’ a recent game Nash­ ville played at Vermontville, one of our players was blocked off second base. The player was Max Purchiss. who was not heavy enough to dislodge the second baseman. Had this been Cole. Poff, McConnell, or some of the other players who had more weight to them, the second baseman might have been injured. We suppose if Cole had done the Gaston-Alphonse act when he ran home from third, that would have suited His Smallness. *' Mr. Curtis.

It was nothing more serldup than a bard and toilsome climb after that, a continuous struggle testing every mus­ cle. straining every sinew, causing both to sink down again and again, panting and exhausted, no longer stim­ ulated by Imminent peril. The narrow cleft they followed led somewhere away from the exposed front of the precipice, yet arose steep and Jagged before them. It was bridged finally by a cedar trunk, which Hampton wrenched from out Its rocky foothold, and the two crept cautiously forward, to emerge where the sunlight rested golden at the summit They sank face downward in the short grass, barely conscious that they had finally won their desperate passage. Slowly Hampton succeeded In up­ lifting hls tired bpdy and hls reeling head, until he could sit partially up­ right and gaze unsteadily about The girl yet remained motionless at hie feet ber thick hair, a mass of rod gold in tho sunshine, completely concealing ber face, ber slender figure quivering to sobs of utter exhaustion. Before them stretched the barren plain, brown, desolate, drear, offering tn all Its wide expanse no hopeful promise of .rescue. With hand partially shad­ ing bls aching eyes from the blinding glare, the man studied Its every ex­ posed feature, hls face hardening again Into lines of stern determina­ tion. The girl stirred from bar posi­ tion. flinging beck her heavy hair with one hand, and looking up into bis face with eyes that read at once hls disappointment “Have—have you any wafer loft?" she asked at lost her lips parched and burning ns if from fever.

There was nothing more said be­ tween them. Like two automatons, they started off across the parched gross, the heat waves rising and fall­ ing as they stumbled forward Neither realized until then bow thoroughly that hard climb up the rocks, the strain of continued peril, and the long abstinence from food had sapped their strength, yet to remain where th«y were meant certain' death; all hope found Its center amid those distant beckoning trees.

Certified milk is as clean as it is possible to make it, it is tree from objectionable bacteria in quantities sufficient to do any harm and it is of uniform quality. To produce certi­ fied milk the animals must be healthy and clean, the premises must be clean, the utensils must be sterilized and every one who works with the milk must have clean hands and clean clothes. All this costa extra money, and the product must bring a higher price to make it pay. BACK GIVES OUT.

The first one came last Friday when the team journeyed over to Wood­ land and lost a fine game by a score of 2 to 0. Lute McDowell was in the box for toe home team and be-held the Nashville boys sate all the time. Brown also pitched a good game but tlie usual hal'd luck of the Nashville boys wjls responsible for tlie defeat. Two hits and two errors in the fourth inning gave the Woodland boys two runs, enough to win the game. Sever­ al times Nashville had men on third and second and a little hit was all that was needed .to register runs, but the hit was not forthcoming; , the "Rube” tightened up in the pinches, paced around the box like a eaged giraffe and handed the opposing'batsmen lemons. Four hits were made off bis delivery but they came so far apart that there was little danger. Only three hila were made off Brown's delivery, but errors and the “hoo­ doo” got in their, work and defeat followed. Tlie game was a clean game from beginning to end. . Richards of Sunfield umpired and hks decisions were fair all the‘time. In the fourth’C. Scofield pushed out a single but was forced at second by Bovee. R. Hines hit safely and Bovee was caught trying to reach third on the hit. M union bunted and beat the throw out. Two strikes were called on L. Hines lyh'en McConnell threw it to third to catch Bovee, the throw going over the third-baseman and Bovee raced home. Habersaat got tlie ball and threw it over the catcher in an effort to stop Bovee and Munion came in with the olheescore. Tlie next ball through was a strike and Bines was out. ■ Following'is toe score: H O NASHVILI-E-- ab Purchiss, ss... ,..4 5 McConnell, c .. ..4 Brown, p..... .4 0 Vance, 14 Brumm, 24 0 Nelson, 3.3 0 Halx-rsaat, If... .3 0 Feigbner, cf-.....4 0 0 Glasner, rf3 Totals33 WOODIjAND— Al Barnum, 24 C.

He swaved on the hmb for.- a moment, then fell headlong to the ground, a distance of about twenty-five feet, striking on his head qnd shoulders and just.missing a stone fence. He was unconscious, and the boys ran to Deeds’ and got a horse- and buggy and took him to toe Price home, where Dr. Shilling soon arrived in resjjonse to a telephone call. The boy had recovered conscioasness before tor doctor arrived, but was. in great pain. One Hand was burned along the tips of the fingers and the. entire thumb was cooked: the other hand was badly burned along-.the base of the fingers, the middle finger being burned nearly off: on one heel was a burn about as large as a half dollar and half an inch in depth, and on one . side, undoubtedly where he leaned againsj a limb, was a similar burn. <The’ doctor dressed the wounds and hopes to be able to save all the fin­ i gers, although some of them will !probably be somewhat warped. While he was dressing the burns the lad remarked: “Say, Doc, if that* limb I was standing on had been wet, it wouldn’t have done much to me. . would it?” as though was satisfied in bis own mind that be got off luckily, which he indeed did.

Don’t tall to aan the beat rara meeting In Western Michigan thia lesson. From the State Capital Infortnation and Gossip Furnished by Special Correspondent at Lansing* _ _ Barton, deputy state factory Inspector, .has given out an Intereating statement showing that child labor in Michigan la on the Increase. There were 5.865 In 1906 and 5,095 employed in Mich* Igan In 1905, showing an Increase of 761 children In the various factories, workshops, hotels and stores. There Is no -way of ascertaining the num­ ber employed in tbe different street trades, such as newsboys, bootblacks, etc., or In the-fields. 'When we take into consideration the large amount of foreign popula­ tion coming to our state each year, statistics showing that In the first six months of 1906, In round numbers, 33,000 foreigners came to Michigan, to my mind the increase In child labor is largely accounted for.” says Miss Burton. "At present children from 14 to 16 years of age are allowed to work ten hours per day. Last winter bills were passed raising the age limit at which children might be employed where their life or Umb Is endangered or their health is likely to be Injured, or their morals depraved, from 16 to 21 years for females and 18 years for males. The age limit where children are employed In any theater, concert hall or place of amusement where in- 8ult Against Telegraph Company. P'roceedlngs to compel the Western Union Telegraph company to pay the state of Michigan >75,000 for Its .fail­ ure to comply with the laws of Michi­ gan have been commenced by Attor­ ney General Bird In the Ingham coonty circuit court. The suit Is com­ menced in the name of the people and is by declaration. Tbe Charge is that, the telegraph company. Ignoring the statute of 1901. requiring foreign cor­ porations doing .business In Michigan to file their articles of Incorporation with the secretary of state and pay a franchise fee, has transacted business In Michigan for a period of six years or more without complying with the law, and the court Is asked 'to Impose the penalty provided by the statute for such failure of >1,000 per month. Attorney Bird has also asked Gov. Warner to bring to the attention of the legislature' in special session the question of the taxation of. the tele­ graph and' telephone companies of the state, which, he asserts, are escaping their just share of taxation while pay­ ing dividends on large amounts of watered stock. 2^*1 — Edwards Given 82,000.

Detroit—A total attendance of half a million people is expected at tbe state fair, which runs from August 20, to Friday, September 26. ' The large attendance Is deserved by the greatly enlarged exhibition, for an Increase of 15 to 30 per cent on near­ ly all lines of exhibits is looked for. and the vast increase of the exhibits means a proportionate enlargement of Interest There will be no change in the price of admission, with half rates all day to children knd after six p. m. to adults. Tbe permanent buildings this year will be increased 20 per cent., yet there will be only a slight decrease In total tent acreage.

There was a big fire here last week, and next door to the building that burned was a fine store finished throughout with B. P S. Nisoron Varnish. In order to eave this fine building and stock, the fire department was compelled to thoroughly drench the building with water. The Nisoron Varnish was not affected. It did not spot or turn white; but on the show cases and some fixtures that were finished with other varnishes all the varnish turned white and peeled off. The building was finished three years ago, and after standing this long, besides going through this trying test, is in wnderful shape; not a mar or scratch anywhere.

"Well, you don’t toll mo!" he ex­ claimed. “Who's-the girl T’ ,rl don't think I'm quite at liberty, to mention her name.' said Gilpley. "1 suppose you'll find out in time. I think he’s rather a chump, don't you*" . . “1 don't iwe why." sold Bcneon, who's a married man himself. “Wall, t\e’s got plenty ot time for that sort of thing five or six years from now, I should think." "Rot!" said Henson, “ff he ever Intends doing tt he might as well do ft now as five years from now." "1. suppose-that’s-true tn a said Gllptey. "and yet 23 hi pretty young.” "I took him to be older than that,” Ben eon. ‘Td have guesned him to b« 25 or 26. .But 23‘Isn't too young If he'e got the right kind of a girl." "Oh. the girl’s all right." said Gllpley. "In fact, one trouble Is with. her. She tblnkk Harry is too young. She thinks they ought to walL I—er—I think they ought to. perhaps, too. She’s preUy level headed, tho girl Is." "Nonsen«e!" said Beusoo. "In the first place, she don’t mean rt. She’s just bluffing, and If she did moan tt *he wouldn't really know what she was talking about. And she’ll have more good, solid happiness If she mar­ ries him now than If she puts it ofS until they’re both gray-headed. That is. of course. If he is (and I think he Is) the right kind of a fellow and she ta the right kind of a girl." "He's got his faults, but he’d try to be deceuL" said Gilpley, "and you can bet there’s no discount on her.” "Well. then, there you are," said Benson, with a wave of his cigar. "What more would you want tp start with? I suppose you’ve been trying to dissuade hln??" "Yen—not exactly." suM . Gilpley. "I don’t want to see him make an ass ot himself, of course, but I think a good deal of him and I wouldn’t want him to back out on my account if tt was the best thing for him to do. That’s my position." "What I can't see is why you think It wouldn’t be best tor him.” said Benson. "Wefl. he’s Just starting out in Hfe and sometimes it stands in a young man's way co have a wife aod family —handlers him. you know." “You express yourself llkt> a chewe sandwich.

"I'm not really argu­ ing against It I’m trying to get your Ideas on the subject. I don't pretend to know, and Harry know* less about It than 1 da.

Why. man. that’s plafri af­ fluence.’ How ranch do you think the average couple gets married on?" "I don't know. I'm aura,” replied Gilpley. "but Lt seemed to roe that it was pretty small. I think a man ought to be careful. You think they could get along on that?" “Hl hrt you into a secret, my boy," sold Beoeoo. “^Vben I got mar­ ried three years ago I was pulling out less than that and I don't think we have ever suffered." “You don't tell me that!" "That’s the truth.’ said Benson. "Fll UH you, Harry won’t be able to give any very swell dinner parties dr have a box for tbe season when grand opera comes; be won’t be able to smoke 95­ cent cigars or anything of that sort, but b« can live comfortably and carry a little insurance to keep his mind easy and put by a little for a rainy day at that. Why, I wouldn't take a million for the pleasure I'll get In later life from tbe recollection of our little economies and sacrifices. They haven’t been sacrifices, though. It’s been fun for tbe most part." Gtlpey’s face slowly expanded Into a broad grin. He threw his cigar Into the hearth and rose and solemnly ' shook his host’s hand. "Benson,” be said, "I want yon to do me a favor. You coroe around and talk that way to Harry to oblige me. He hasn't gtven me a’moment’s peace with his practical advice and his fool objections since I first confided tn him that I was engaged." Benson smiled wisely.

"By the way,” he observed careless­ ly. with on elephantine attempt at in­ difference, "don’t say anything to him about our machine." Mrs. Wltherby opened her eyes. "Whjrnot?” she asked. .

"But he's a valuable customer, and in this case—" "Don't say any more. I understand perfectly.” The next few weeks the Wltherbys were drawn together by a silent bond of sympathy. Each had had experi­ ences, each tacitly understood tbe other. Under cover of the darkness they surreptitiously enjoyed their new machine. They rode In side streets, and sought the unfrequented byways. It was a subject they never mentioned. Every ride was like snatching a fear­ ful joy. ‘Ah.’’ said Bender, dne .morning at the station, .as ho slapped Wltherby on the buck. "I pee you've joined the great majority.

"They’re not Intended for that, of course; but for running around In they must be splendid. I fairly envy you." This, and more. Tbe next morning Mrs. Wltherby rose, pale and determined. She spent the morning in town, getting together all her available resources. She went to her bank, to her safe deposit; she even visited her fathsr. Armed with the results of her work she forthwith purchased the largest, most luxurious automobile she could find, and ordered it delivered nt the earliest possible moment.

Down the duetj- road came a horse so elow­ ly that hla feet acarcely made a sound, while the rider Idly held the lines tn hla panlve hands and let the horse take his own gait Judging by his abstracted look, tho beauty of the day made no Impression ,upon<hlm< except In a general way; he wore a dark gray traveling suit and a soft fplt hat was pushed back on his head, showing a broad brow and clear cut fate, from which looked honest gray eyes that had a very sad expression just now. He was thinking of a d mo two ycare before when he had ridden down this same road, and by. hla side a slender, graceful girl, whose laughing, piquant face was raised to his own. and whose dark eyes were, he Hiought, the most beautiful la the world. Ute seemed very bright then, but now—-how the old world had changed! Two years before, Frederic 'Smith. M. D had oome down to this quiet neighborhood with a college friend to fl«h, hunt, and otherwise spend profitably a few weeks* vacation. He was just out of a medical school, had a comfortable fortune In his own right, friends by the score and a con­ tented disposition; what more could a young man wish for? AJas! After two short weeks In BloomweH, all this changed, and he knew that the things he bad counted of value, were nothing to him now. What use a fortune, with only him­ self to support; what use to win a name as a prominent physician, there was no one to share the honor of such a position. So he argued to himself, and all because one dark-eyed girl laughed at all his' compliments, told comical stories of other young M. D.'s, and openly declared that young mon with money seldom won eminent posi­ tions. • , Kate Allen was the only child of Judge Allen, lawyer of BloomweH, a rich, contented country gentleman, who enjoyed his money, his home, his fine Kentucky horses, and most of all, hts pretty daughter Kate, who since her mother's death, bad been bls con­ stant companion. Then there came a time when Miss Kate’s face seemed to take a diCerent expression, and even Aunt Jane Aus­ ten. a quiet, little old maid, whoso place adjoined the judge’s, saw and felt the change. Aunt Jane had known her since she lay in her arms a tiny, laughing baby, when she had spent many hap­ py days With Kate's mother, who was her dearest friend, and after the child was left’ motherless, she turned 1d- F.

After Frederic Smith came out from Louisville for his vacation, even Aunt Jane saw a change in her favorite, until she came one day, all smiles and blushes, and told her of her promise to marry Fred, and of how very, very happy she was. Fred came that even­ ing looking very proud and handsome, as he told the same story. They were not to be married for a year, and In that time Fred would have established his practice, as Kate said, with youthful confidence. Then came the quarrel and the en­ gagement was broken. She had given him JjIs ring and said she never want­ ed to hear from him again. And so. after two years* absence Frederic Smith came riding down the road, and paused at last at a tiny, vine-covered cottage. A woman of uncertain 'age, but whose hair wae al­ most white, was gathering roses in the garden. The young man threw the lines ovca post and was at her side In a mo­ ment. a glow of genuine pleasure In his face and shining from his gray eyes. "Aunt Jane, I am so glad to see you." ho cried, “and you look just as you did two years ago; how have you been all these long weeks?" She answered that she had been an well as usual, and then they sat down on the vine-covered porch for an old­ time chat. She asked of his life and his practice In the two years he had been away, but through it all, there was a touch of dignity and reoerve that socDebuw did not seem quite nat­ ural to Fred, in' his memory of the kindly Little woman. “Aunt J ano," he said at. last “How Is Miss Allen—Kate?" be added. "I could not talk of her to anyone but you. nor even you, at first, but I should like to know If she be well and happy; I know »be to not married, for I have watched tbe Bloom well papers for that Item of news." ' "Yes," answered tbe little woman, “she Is well and contented, as are moat of our lassies In this wholesome little town." ■ . Again Fred caught the note of a cer­ tain reserve, but he was not to be baf­ fled or restrained from saying all he had Intended to say. "You know all about our misunder­ standing,” be ventured, at last "Yes, I know," and now there was a decided angry, ring to the gentle vole*. ’I have thought, sometimes,” went on this unconscious culprit, "that 1 should* have written again, after a tow months, but' I suppose Kate did not care as she fancied, and that it is better so.” "I think. Frederic Smith, you were the one who did not care,” said Aunt Jana, roused at last out of her natural calm. "Or you took a Btrauge way to prove your affection; you quarreled, quarreled like two silly children that you were, and then you cboee to think poor Kate meant all she said in anger. So you needs must take your dignity back to town, before It could be again insulted, without* one farewell word, or giving my poor girt a chance, had she wished, to get down humbly and ask your forgiveness." “Aunt Jane—why. Aunt Jane!" in­ terrupted the young man. hie voice thrilling with iAdiguatlon. ‘'Surely Kate told you of the letter I wrote as soon as I left her. How could you think roe bo mean, bo unmanly?" The little woman read truth tn hto earnest young face, and Bho got up, and stood with both hands on bls arm. "Fred," abc eald. "I knew yeara ago of two lives that were spoiled by just, such a foolish mistake; let ub right this If we can. Now, tell me all about that letter, for Kate never saw, or beard one word from you since you parted in anger that day In the woods." He answered eagerly, all hla face glowing with-a audtk-a hope. "Wo bad quarreled; it commenced with a trifle, but we both grew angry at last, and Kale gave me my ring and said she never wished to hear from me again, and I was more angry, and turned and left her without a word. After I had cooled down I was aa ashamed and sorry as you could wish, and I wrote a letter asking her forglvenena, and begging for a note in re­ ply, saying that I should leave the next morning, and really know that she meant all she had said, if I had no word from her." **Who took the letter?" Interrupted Aunt Jane. "Kate's boy, Isaiah the Prophet, who al way h carried otrr notes to each other. He came back In a short time, Baying. 'Miss Kate rood hit and say. "no anawar." ' " 'What did Bhe do with the I asked. To'e hit up.' he said, ’sne war mighty begagad talking ter Mare Carlton, goln' ter ride. I spec. 1 Bee he buggy and hos thar.' That was surely enough; what more cbuld I do, la jus­ tice to myself, but leave?" . "Fred." Bald Aunt Jane, eagerly, “it was all a yarn, I know; I &.a sure the Prophet Med and Kate never heard of that letter. She has gone away but will be home in a few days. and. my dear boy, don’t let your false pride make a wreck of her happiness and yonr own." 'Indeed. Aunt Jane, I shall not," he answered. “I had much rather make a wreck of that false Prophet" But his face was full of hope and joy ss he stooped and kissed the gentle old face near him. and Aunt Jone did not look In the least offended. ' . “And now. I must tell you of my business; I am In partnership with a gentleman much older than myself; such a splendid, grand man as be to! You would like him. I know, Aunt Jane; he used to be familiar with this town years ago, and said ba bad met you." Just here the anxious black face of Isaiah peered over the white gate. "Mars Fred, aur, I hab some business with yow, when Miss Jane done be fro. if youw please, sur.” “All right,” answered tbe young man, and he added aside to Aunt Jane: "I have some business with him. too, young scoundrel." "Don't kill him, Fred.” said she, "for after all. be to Kate> property, and she Is fond of him.” "Looking at it In that light," laughed Fred. "I shall deal with him most ten­ derly." So remounting bls horse he rode slowly down the pike, tbe small, black negro at hla side, who told of how he had lost tbe Mt letter sent to Miss Kate and fearing to tell him. had in­ vented the story of its delivery and her answer. “Well, it is all right now,” said Fred, after making tbe young negro, solemn­ ly promise to stick to the truth In the future. “But that first young story of yours made lots of trouble.” A few days later Kate came home, and I know the unhappy mistake was made right at last, for I saw the young lovers standing side by side in Aunt Jane’s flower garden, and Kate was pinning a rose on FTed’s coat, and I knew from their faces that their love story had. after all, had a happy end­ ing. or rather, a beginning. Aunt Jane sat on the vine-covered porch, and near her Fred's partner, a handsome num of 50, and they seemed to be in most earnest conversation, which I afterwards better understood, for Aunt Jane’s romance, after 20 years of waiting, was at last com­ pleted.

C., Sept. 10.—There Is • renewed apprehension of further anti-. Asiatic rioting here, and all Mun-’ day Japanese and Chinese crowded tbe local gunshops to buy firearms and ammunition. They declare they will defend their lives and property. In' case the oriental quarter la again. attacked. It is feared that there will bf> bloodshed, for the Japanese and Chinese are thoroughly aroused and are convinced that the police are powerless to protect them. Shortly before noon the police notified the gun stores to cease selling firearms to anyone until such time as all pos­ sibility of further outbreaks had passed Before tbo order was Issued several hundreds of Chinese end Jap anese had armed themselves. All” Chinese and JapantMie in domes­ tic service, of whom hundreds are em­ ployed in Vancouver, have stopped work and have been forced by the threats of their countrymen to act as part of the defensiw? guard. Orientals employed In the mills have also stopped work and have taken refuge tn the quarter occupied by their coun­ trymen. where they are preparing to assist Ln opposing any further attacks that may be made. Militia May Ba Called OuL Two hundred special policemen were sworn in Monday and there Is calk erf calling out the militia. There is IHtle doubt that this will be done Ln caw the rioting is renewed. Feel­ ing all over the city runs high and an attack Is likely to occur at any time. 80 far there have been no fatalities, although several of those injured tn Saturday night's riots are in a serious condition. Twenty-six rioters were ar­ raigned tn the police court Monday and were hold for further examination. Oriental Quarter Badly Wrecked. Tho oriental quarter shows the ef­ fect ot tbe riots ot Saturday night. Not a window Ln tbe 50 or more stores and other places of business conducted by Japanese and Chinese remains, and costly stocks of goods are badly dam­ aged. It is said that arrangements are being made to demand heavy in­ demnities Crum tbe city, but it is re­ ported that Mayor Bethune has said that not one cent of indemnity will be paid. The matter will finally be tak­ en to the dominion government. • The Japanese consul here and Baron Ishii, director of commerce and trade of the Japanese foreign office, who Is tn the city, have communicated the facts to tbe Japanese government In Toklo Baron Ishii also Is reported to have cabled a report of the riot to Ambassador Komura In London with a request that he take the matter up with the British government. In his dispatches Baron laRii states tbot the. police force has done its best to pre­ serve order, but thaj II is unable to cope with the mobs. Telegrams also have been sent to Japanese Consul General Nosse at Montreal, who will lay tbe matter be­ fore Sir Wilfried Laurier, the premier. Japanese Fought the Mob. Four attacks were made upon the oriental quarters Saturday night and much damage was done. The Chinese merchants and. others promptly fled, but the Japanese opposed the mob and fought valiantly to protect their property. Antl-oricn i.xl orators on the street comers aroused the people and hundreds Joined the rioters. A dosen Japan.kHt, who had just arrived, were attacked on tbe Canadian Pacific rail­ way wharves and thrown into the wa­ ter. but all were rescued. During the olsturbance a number of Japanese were seriously Injured and several white men were stabbed. Tbe police and the authorities are doing everything in their power to prevent any further outbreak, but the situation is considered critical and a further outbreak may occur at any moment WILL MAKE MOROCCO French Cabinet Decides to Demand indemnity.

In facL there are so many complaint* that tho time of the board will be occupied in the consideration of them, and no more can receive consideration before Oct. 1, the day on which the time for reviews on the-July rolls cease. Claim­ ing that the property of three coal companies located • in Molitor Bay county, are grossly under-assesaed as compared with other property In the vicinity. Gilbert Valhead, a resident taxpayer, has a^ked the board for a re­ view of the tax roll of that town­ ship. Aa Investigation has been order­ ed. and a bearing will likely be grant­ ed. The property about which cpmplalnt/is made is that of the Wolverine • Coal company, assessed at >30,000. - Handy Bros., assessed st >25.000, and the Robert Gage Coal company, asj-sussed a >47.000. Thirteen complaints I filed by tax-payers residing in tbe ! townships and cities in which the Grand Rapids, Grand Haven & Muske­ gon railroad owns a right of, way nave been received. It Is claimed that the railway property Is greatly uver-assassed In proportion to other property. The board will hold hearings. »j Resenting the action of the legisla­ ture in amending the gam* and fish laws so that the brook trout season closes each year on August 15, upper peninsula sportsmen have launched a movement looking to a concerted ap- . peal to Gov. Warner, asking his .co­ operation In an effort to have the' provision rescinded. With the Bum­ mer period opening fully a month later than in the territory below the straits, under the new law the best part of the trout season is lost to north country anglers. From April 15 to tbe latter part of May slush Ice and surface water make fishing for trout decidedly discouraging. With the cutting off of 15 days at the end of the season, sportsmen in this part of the country really have but about 45 days ot fishing. With the closing provision as it now stands, the novel spectacle is presented of Michigan anglers fishing from the Michigan side Into the Wisconsin waters of bor­ der streams, and doing .so legally. It is claimed. Tbe trout season In tho Badger commonwealth. . heretofore ending August 15. has been extended to September 1, the legislative action । at Madison being directly the reverse I of that at Lansing.

But 1 am not look­ ing at the clouds, neither at the moun­ tains, but at Dolores' baby, while she. poor girl, looks at nothing seemingly, though her face Is ever turned toward the track, as It winds southward and finally Is caught between two moun­ tains that seem to come together, holding it like a vise. Dolores' face Is ever turned that way now. looking for that lover hus­ band. who. left her after such a brief honeymoon, and has been heard from no more. I know the father and mother and brothers are within the old adobe house, eating their tortillas and drinking their black coffee; but she cares not for supper. Yes, and young Brigida is there, too. She will go to CREAMERY MEETING. The annual meeting of the Nashville Creamery Co. took place at the cream­ ery office Wednesday afternoon and was well attended. . .The same board of directors was re­ elected and under the management of butter-maker Siebert the creamery was found to be in a healthy and prosper­ ous condition. A dividend was declared and all stockholders are reo nested to present, their certificates to the secretary, Mr. Siebert, al the creamery. We wish to thank all our patrons for their patronage in the past and solicit it in the future. We are paying the highest market prices for cream. ' . Nashville Creamery Co. FOR SALE.

Importers in the East Robbed by In­ genious Celestials. Much difficulty has lately arisen among the Importers In China through the disappearance of part of their con­ signments, says 4a consular report. The losses do not come so much through boxes or chests being carried off en­ tire as through their contents being abstracted, the- receptacle being left, as a rule, tn apparently the sama shape as when leaving the exporter’s warehouse. This is a common trick, and makes a discovery at the time of the- theft most difficult and tbe task of tracing the goods even more so, as the shortage Is seldom noticed un­ til the lot arrives at its destination. Ingenious means are often contrived to prevent the loss being noticed. One of the leading Importers of provisions remarked recently that he had found empty cans in bls preserved fruit boxes, which had been substituted for the, full ones taken out, so that tbe contents would not rattle or shift and so disclose the loss. He stated that shavings and excelsior hod been stuff­ ed Into boxes made empty, or partially so. through tbW-removal of crackers or .biscuits. Not tong ago a heavy loss was sustained by one of the American missionary schools ai this place through the 'teas of linen drawn work, the value of which exceeded 11.500 In gold- Tbe skillful way in which this theft was accomplihsed made ail efforts to recover the goods or apprehend the thieves futile. The drawn work was packed In a box which was strongly secured by Iron strapping, and was also carefully nail­ ed. The box was carried tn the cus­ tom/ and thence to tbe steamer and was scarcely out of tho sight of some responsible person for a moment. When the box reached the customs collector at Pittsburg, io which It went jn bond from New York, It was found to contain nothing but woven straw and paper, scarcely a thread of th* linen remaining. The consignor was Immediately notified anu the most searching efforts were made to effect a recovery and dlscpver the thief, but all attempts to accomplish either were of bo avail. No truce of the goods has ever been found nor any clew dis­ covered which might lead to the de­ tection of tbe thieves, though the va­ riety of the woven straw with which the box was stuffed suggested Foo­ chow as tbe place of the theft, as this variety Is. only to be found there. One of the merchants here Who deals in drugs, hospital supplies and haber­ dashery, has experienced similar loss­ es. the goods as a rule being taken from the boxes whose outside appear­ ance upon the delivery gave no evi­ dence of their having been tampered with. Such Instances might be multiplied almost Indefinitely, but they all go to show that more care must be taken in boxing and packing goods so as to render such theft Impossible, or at least increasingly difficult. Numerous suggestions might bo afforded, all of which should depend somewhat upon, the character of the goods and the size and shape of the receptacle con­ taining them. A box lined with tin or sheet iron would be suitable for small quantities of valuable articles such as ginseng or medicine. A box covered with some woven material, such as basket work or cane or bamboo would quickly betray a loss through an en­ trance to the interior casing, signs of which could scarcely be concealed. Legs and Brain Power. Prof. Anderson Stuart, who fills the chair of-physiology in the University of Sydney, has broached a novel the­ ory. Addressing the Ipcal Ladies' Hy­ gienic association, he said that "Fat legs were a sign of brain power.” The professor went on to remark that “The races which had the biggest calves were the highest in intelli­ gence."

I can remember now how tbe faint pink flush used to come and go in ber cheeks; but then thought little of her admiring glances. I had been used to seeing Sylvie made much over; I almoet worshiped her my­ self. They became great friebd*. but I do not think he courted her at that* time. He went away in tbe fall to be gone two years. He wo* to finlrh hl* edu­ cation at a fam ooh college, am! then he vm coming bock to practice with his uncle. Lawyer Benson.

Sylvie could ever love another better than me:. When Dick came home In.tho spring he naked her it she loved him well enough to marry him in the fall, and help him make a home. The dear child! how happy ahe was, and. thank God, is yet! I could not refuse my consent; I bad □o reasonable grounds, but 1 looked with strong disapproval on every­ thing. Yet I remember how I worked and planned that Sylvie’s outfit might be dainty and complete. She timidly proposed that I should Mve with Hom tn tb<- collage oa the hill, and assured mo Dick was wtillpg. ••But I am no<.’" I answered grimly, and I made our aid w«1nR machine fairly rattle as th* yards of dainty ruffling fell crowding into my lap.

They asked me to let my care of the house settle all question of rent between us, but I v;as paying rent on the house where Sylvie and I had lived, and so I insisted on paying them the fame if I made Lhe change Sylvie used often to come up and sit with me, because I would rarely go to the big house to see her. X Besides she loved lhe memories the bouse held for her. By-and-by it grew to be too much for Sylvie to climb the hill, and ahe did not go out often in the carriage. Still I did not go down to see Ber un­ less they sent for me. One day the buggy came for me tn great haste, and 1 wenL although I grumbled all the way. When they put Sylvie** Huie daugh­ ter In my arms, I kissed her because I just couldn’t help It; but I didn't make any fuss over her, and I won­ dered audibly tf there was any need of u.y banging around there any longer.

Apparently, it was not hard to bld Lenore adieu. There was a clasp of the hand and a conventional "God speed you," but behind these formal­ ities lurked a feeling so passionate on the part of both that one relenting glance from Pierre would have opened the floodgates of their mutual happiness.

They were so completely opposite, these two, that more than one chance passer-by glanced curiously toward them as they picked their way onward through the red dust. Hampton, slend*r yet Irmly knit, his body held erect as though trained to the profession of arms, his features finely chiselled, with threads of gray hair beginning to show conspicuously about the temples. His ' attire of fashionable cut black cloth, and his immaculate linen, while neat and unobtrusive, yet appeared ex­ tremely unusual tn that careless land of clay-baked overalls and dingy woolens.

I’d rather go with you than be good.” His sensitive face flushed-with de­ light. but he looked gravely down into her Indignant eyes. “Oh, yes, you will. Kid," and his hand touched her rough­ ened hair caressingly. "She's a good, kind woman, all right, and I don’t blamo her for not liking my style.” ’ **Do—do you really want me to stick it out here. Bob?” It was no small struggle for him to say so, for he was beginning to com­ prehend Just what this separation meant She was more to him than he had ever supposed, more to him than she bad even been an hour before, and now he understood clearly that from this moment they must ever run far­ ther apart—her life tending upward, his down. Yet there was but one de­ cision possible. Then be answered, "This is your best chance, little girl, and I want you to stay and fight It out." ■ Their eyes met, each dimly realis­ ing, although In a totally different way, that here was a moment of Important decision. Mrs. Herndon darkened the doorway and stood looking out “Well. Mr. Bob Hampton.” she ques­ tioned, plainly, "what is this going to be?” He glanced toward her, slightly lift­ ing his hat. and promptly releasing the girl's clinging hand. “1(118 Gillis consents to remain,” he announced shortly, and, denying him­ self so much as another glance at his companion, strode down the narrow path to the road. A moment the girl's eyes followed him through the dust cloud, a single tear stealing down her cheek. Only a short week ago she had utterly despised this man, now he had become truly more to her than any one else in the wide, wida world. Then Mrs. Herndon came forth quietly and led the girl, now sobbing bitterly, within the cool shadows of the house. CHAPTER VIII. It proved a restless day, and a suf­ ficiently unpleasant one, for Mr. Hamp­ ton. For a number of years he had been diligently draining himself in the school of cynicism, endeavoring to per­ suade himself that he did not in the least care what others thought, nor how his owt career ended; impelling himself to constant recklessness In life and thought. He had thus successfully .. built up a wall between the present and lhat I)Mt which long haunted his lonely moments, and had finally de­ cided that it was hermetically sealed. Tet now, this odd chit of a girl, this waif whom he had plucked from the Jaws of death, had overturned this carefully constructed barrier as if it had been originally built of mere card­ board. and he was compelled again to see himself, loathe himself, just as he had tn those past years. One thing he grasped clearly.—the girl should be given her chance ncth­ ing In his life must ever again soil her or lower her Ideals. Mrs. Herndon was right and he realised It; neither his presence nor his money were fit to influence her future. He swore be­ tween his clinched teeth, his face grown haggard. The sun's rays bridged the slowly darkening valley with cords of red gold, and the man pulled him­ self to his feet by gripping the root of a tree. He realized that he bad been sitting there for hours, and that ho was hungry. Down beneath, amid the fast awak­ ening noise and bustle of early even­ ing. the long discipline of the gambler reasserted Itself—he - got back bls nerve. It was Bob Hampton, cool, re­ sourceful, sarcastic of speech, quick of temper, who greeted the loungers about the hotel, and who sat. with his back to th* wall, in the little dining­ room, watchful of' all others present And It was Bob Hampton who strolled carelessly out upon the darkened porch an hour later, leaving a roar of laugh­ ter behind him, and an enemy as well. Little he cared for that however, in his present mood, and he stood there, amid the black shadows, looking con­ temptuously down upon the stream of coatless humanity trooping past on pleasure bent, the blue smoke circling his head, his gray eyes glowing half angrily. Suddenly he leaned forward, clutching the rail in quick surprise. "Kid." he exclaimed, harshly, “what does this mean? What are you doing alone hero?" She stopped Instantly and glanced ■p. her face flushing In ths light streaming forth from the open, door of the Occidental. "I reckon I'm alone here because I want to be," she returned, defiantly. "I ain't no slave. How do you get up there?" He extended bls hand, and drew bar up beside him into the shaded corner. "Well," he said, "tell me the truth.” "T’ve quit, that's all. Bob. I just couldn't stand reform any longer, and •0 Tv* come back here to you." The man drew a deep breath. "Didn’t you like Mrs. Herndon?" "Oh. she's all right enough, so far as that goes.

Was that all she said?" /'She called you a low-down gambler, a gun-fighter, a—a miserable barroom thug, a—a murderer.' She—she said that If I ever dared to speak to you again.

"The fool!" he muttered half aloud, then caught his breath quickly. "Now see here.

"Kid, What Does This Mean and What Are You Doing Her* AloneT" is true about me, why shouldn't she say It?

I reckon you better stick to the woman and cut me." She did not answer, yet be read an unchanged purpose In her eyes, and his own decision strengthened. Some instinct led him to do the right thing; he ^lrew forth the locket from beneath the folds of her dress, holding it open to the light. He noticed now a name engraven on the gold case, and bent lower to decipher the delicate letter­ ing"Was her name Nalda?" he ques­ tioned, sharply. "It is an uncommon word." Their eyes met, and those of both had perceptibly softened. "Nalda,” -his lips dwelt upon the peculiar name xs though he loved the sound.’ 'T want you to listen to me, child. I sincerely .wish I might keep you here with me, but I can't You , are more to me than you dream, but it would not be right for me thus delib­ erately to sacrifice your whole future to my pleasure.

She. who was your mother, would never wish you to re­ main with me. She would say I*did right in giving you up into the care of a good woman.

Living or dead, it must be the prayer of those Ups that you become a good woman also. She should lead you, not I, for I am un­ worthy. For her sake, and in her name. I ask you to go back to Mrs. Herndon." He could perceive the gathering tears In her eyes, and his band closed tight­ ly about her own. It was not one soul alone that struggled. "You will go?" “O Bob, I wish you wasn't a gam­ bler!" A moment he remained silent "But unfortunately I am,” he admitted, so­ berly, "and it is best for you to go back. Won’t you?" Her gaze was fastened -upon the open locket, the fair face pictured there smiling up at her as though In pleading also. “You truly think she would wish it?* "I know she would." The girl gave utterance to a quick, startled breath, as if the vision fright­ ened her. "Then I will go," she said, her voice a mere whlsppr, "I will go." He led her down the steps, out into the Jostling crowd below, as if she had been some fairy princess. Her locket hung dangling, and he slipped it back into its place and drew her slender form yet closer against his own, as they stepped forth into the black, de­ serted road.

"Why, really, do you know that I think that a rather picturesque affair on the whole?" he,resumed, observing critically, for the first time, the object of his mother's contemptuous remark. Hugh leaned forward, his languid eyes opening wide with sudden inter­ est as a girl with a mist of sunny hair blowing back against the broad black brim of the hat framing her hap­ py face, run out and, catching some article from the household furnishings unladen at the dear. disappeared like a flash of, light within. "Ah!" he breathed. "Who are these people, mother?" he questioned, pres­ ently, vainly waiting for a reappear­ ance of the figure which had attracted his attention. "Have you made their' acquaintance T' "I? No, Indeed!" was the dignified response. "Mrs. Thompson, however, has volunteered to explain to me that they are eminently respectable. The father Is a hard-working, but imprac­ tical sort of a person, always dream­ ing out Inventions that never meet with adoption; the eldest, and only son is a carpenter aspiring to become en architect; one of the daughters is a wood carver, and the other a gradu­ ate of the cooking school, and em­ ployed at very high prices by some of our first families to prepare fancy dishes for special occasions, going to their houses like a common servant Think of that! And the whole family contributing, I am told, to the erection of this uncivilized structure, which appears to be the first property they have ever possessed.” "A laudable enterprise," remarked Hugh Lawrence. It was not long before Hugh was on very sociable terms with his new neighbors, whom, however, his mother still Ignored. In every member of the family he found a genial and in­ teresting companion, though he was ; unable to approach Miss Ethel in the friendly relations already established with the frank, brotherly Sibyl. True, Ethel was entertaining and re­ sponsive in a matter-of-fact imperson­ al way, but while the dark-haired Sibyl would talk of herself as frank­ ly and freely as of any other Interest­ ing topic, Ethel would withdraw with a touch-me-not air, and remain icily uncommunicative whenever he ven­ tured to broach the subject of per­ sonal feelings and affairs. Even more than by this repellant quality Lawrence was piqued by the girl’s failure to recognize him outside her own house. Time and again he had met her upon the street and she had given no token whatever of ac­ quaintanceship with him; though, per­ haps only the previous evening he had by her own fireside talked with her of art, science, literature and kindred subjects with which she was familiar, with a sympathetic interchange of sentiment which had seemed to him to constitute a bond of friendship. This fact annoyed him more than he felt was reasonable. He was vexed with his own chagrin. His Inward resentment of such rude­ ness culminated one day when, ap­ proaching his mother’s house after a morning walk, be saw just nearing a side gate, the slight, erect figure of Miss Ethel, attired in a plain stuff gown, its straight length relieved by a white breadth of apron, and her sunny tendrils of hair pushed under a rle mure cap that encircled her head not exactly like the aureole of a saint. He attempted to speak to her, but she passed on into the servants' entrance with scarcely a perceptible bow. Discomfited, Lawrence wheeled and walked around to his usual entrance. "For what purpose Is Miss Harland In your kitchen?" he asked his mother. "Bless you! to make one of her in­ imitable desserts. She is all the rage, don't you know; and to be in fashion we must employ her when she will condescend to favor us, though her prices are as exquisite ak her dishes." “Mother, the young lady is not to come here again in such capacity,” said Hugh with authority. Don’t argue with me, mother," he added, forestalllug the surprised exclamation that was coming. When Lawrence called on Miss Har­ land that evening shv was found in the summer quarter sitting under a rose-tinted lamp shade that gave to her fair face and soft white gown the pink glow of the dawn. She gave him a cordial welcome. "Are you alone T' he asked. "Yes, for a little," she said. *T am forblddea by the powers in command to make my appearance in the domes tic region, where some mysterious rites are being put tn process in honor of my birthday.

You will not again subject me to this ordeal." . "No! Nor will you ever again en­ ter my mother's house in the capacity of a servant," epoke the gentlemen, with' repressed passion. "But—bates my wife—Ethel, I could make myself a stepping-stone for you at the door." The words burst from his lips with unpremeditated directness end fer­ vor. He had not thought to deliver himself in this impetuous fashion, nor, indeed, for the present to acknowl­ edge an interest he had only begun to admit to himself; but the speech made him all. at* once conscious of the might of his love.

C. L. GLASGOW ‘Curious, Isn’t It?” met in his a look of concentrated win and power before which her own quailed, and with a vague sense of subjugation her gaze fell to the book she had been holding open in her lap since he entered. Just then a musical chime sounded from the other end of the house, and with a gush of song and a noisy slid­ ing of screens Sibyl appeared on the scene. "Here cornea the Harland delegation to bear off the queen of the birthday fete," she cried. "Ah, Mr. Lawrence, an unexpected pleasure this! So kind of you to have come in to entertain Ethel in her enforced solitude and exile! Welcome to the feast, and will you lead out the queen?" "I have offered myself to her ma­ jesty as a birthday* gift*" said Law­ rence, who bad risen without relin­ quishing-the band of which he bad taken possession. "But it does nqt seem so clear that I am accepted that I may venture on taking an honored place at the feast” With the sweep of a heavy portiere, the pretty dining-room opened to their vision, displaying a daintily-laid table, at the head of 'which a beautiful floral arch indicated the place of the "queen." "What deep-laid scheme is this?" questioned Ethel, seeing at her side a vacant seat, into which Lawrence was bowed by a circle of assenting heads. "Truly,” laughed Sibyl. "I have mar­ veled myself at the breadth of floral canopy which Will was arranging for so slight a royalty as yourself, Ethel; and as for the second chair, it is a work of magic that 1 will not attempt to explain. It is a bit of • witchcraft wrought since 1 left the dining-room." A significant glance shot between the eyes of the lover and brother as both turned smiling on Ethel, who looked from oae to the other in grave question. "It was 'Instinct/ sis, that myste­ rious sense which you reject, pluming yourself on ‘reason/ you know." ex­ plained Will. "Now that canopy ex­ panded of Itself in a most surprising way as 1 worked at it. It covers two in spite of my plan for one.

Hostilities st an End—Features of ths Agreement Made Between Gen. Drude and Nineteen Caida of the Morocco Natives. Value Now 9109,000,000—Results of Agitation and Legal Proceedings Revealed—List of Principal Stock­ holders in the Trust Paris, Sept 24.—Peace "has been de­ clared In Morocco. The delegates ot three important tribes have accepted the French peace overtures and will see that the terms of the agreement are carried out • Hostilities are qow at an end. The government Monday evening received with great satisfaction a dis­ patch from Rear Admiral Philibert commander of the French naval forces in Moroccan waters, sayipg that as a result of the conference Monday at Gen. Drude’s headquarters, between the French naval and military com­ manders and 19 calds, represerftlng •the Ouleseeyan, Zenata and Zyalda tribes, the three tribes have accepted unconditionally the peaqe terms of­ fered by France. Terms That Are Accepted. , These terms are as follows: Hos­ tilities shall cease at once: Gen. Drado’ may make military reconnais­ sances throughout the territory of the three tribes to satisfy himself that the pacification Is complete; the tribes engage themselves* to disperse and chastise all armed bodies that may assemble in their territory with hos­ tile, intent; every native found tn the possession of arms or munitions of war within ten miles of Casablanca shall be handed over ti? the sherlffian authorities, condemned to imprison­ ment and fined 1200; the tribes shall be held responsible ft;r the carrying out of the previous stipulation; every native detected in smuggling or using arms shall be punished; the delegates of the tribes undertake to surrender the authors of the outrages upon Europeans of July 30 and, pending judgment, their goods shall be seized and sold irrespective of the Indemnity which is to bo paid, the amount - .of which be fixed by the Moroccan gov­ ernment: the Casablanca tribes shall pay a large indemnity, the part of each tribe to be apportioned according to the length of time It resisted the French. In addition, the Chaoula tribes shall pay a contribution toward the harbor wojks at Casablanca. To secure the carrying out of this convention, two notables of each tribe shall be given up as hostages. The delegates of the Ouleseeyan, Zenata and Zylada tribes immediately named their ho»tages and algned the capitu­ lation. Credit Mainly Due to France. The campaign which France has just brought to a successful close in Morocco was started early In August under the mandate given to both France and Spain by the Algeciras agreement to maintain proper police regulations in the sea ports of Mo­ rocco. The direct cause of the move­ ment was the murder July 30 of seven Europeans at Casablanca. France and Spain acted with the consent of the powers, and no power Interfered with their operations, although at one time Germany gave evidence that she viewed the landing of a numerous French force in Morocco with appre­ hension, not to say, distrust. Spain took but a minor J»art In the campaign, but the major share of the credit for putting down the turbulent Arab tribesmen undoubtedly is France’s. New York.

ROSCOE Information and Gossip Furnished by Special Correspondent at Lansing. Lansing.—Dirt Is the cause of the pollution of mlik, causing it to be­ come sour and stringy, and it is dirt that makes the “air holes" in cheese. That this Is true has been conclusive­ ly proven by exhaustive experiments which have been going on In the bac­ teriological department of the Michi­ gan Agricultural college for a number of years, and for this very reason much of the energy of the department has been exerted along the lines bt producing purer, cleaner milk and to educate all milk producers to adopt more sanitary methods In its produc­ tion. Some interesting tests made by this department have given some notable facts. It was found that when cows were milked under approved sanitary conditions, the milk changed to the eye in the same temperature, one lot In four days, another after eight days, another after 14 days, and, still another after 28 days, while It was found, that milk obtained under the ordinary conditions Invariably changed In 24 hours. Milk is an ex­ cellent food for bacteria and they multiply at an amazing rate In sum­ mer temperature, and when dirt or filth which is teeming with this life enters milk they Increase rapidly and soon cause one change or another In the milk. City milk often contains millions of these minute germs to every drop, as has been proven by analysis and although Invisible are the responsible agents for nearly all the ilia accompanying the use of , milk. These bacteria in milk are the inciters of summer complaint, cholera I Infantum and typhoid fever, and even i tuberculosis and other infections may be conveyed by milk. Consequently it is important to human life that the .milk supply should be well guarded j and a continuous Campaign along sonitary and. educational lines at the M. A. C. in this regard being carried on. ' A glance at the mortality statistics of ; Infants under one year ot age during the last few years shows that 50 per cenL of these deaths may be attributed to causes directly traceable to dirty milk. Dr. C. E. Marshall, head of the bacteriological and hygiene depart­ ment of the M. A. C., in discussing the milk question at the college and the raise in price, sold that it had to come. Milk, he said, could not be produced atrflve cents a quart If profit was to be considered at all, especially when ‘the present price of food stuff ! for cattle is constantly advancing.

In addi­ tion to this amount, the team has uni­ forms which will be serviceable for another season, has a good equip­ ment of base ball paraphernalia and a number of new balls, so that they will be prepared to start next seasoni with a much better equipment thani they had this season. Manager Wen­ ger is to be commended on the ability,, both financial and otherwise, withi which he has come through the sea­son, and it is to be hoped that he may be prevailed upon to continue in the> position for another season. A com­ mittee consisting of Manager Wenger, O. G. Munroe and J. E. Lake was ap­■ pointed to fix* *up the grounds, and they have a number of men and teamsi now at wo'rk grading and scraping. The field will be leveled and put in! good shape, and the infield will be। covered with several inches of clay, while the outfield will be fertilized and seeded, so that by another year we। will have one of the best ball grounds in this part of the state. The grand stand association sub­ mitted a report showing that the ex­ pense of building the grand stand was, •177.69. The amount taken in at the। various games during the season wasi $95.40. The association has $67.71 in the bank, and has indebtedness to its, members to the amount of $150. An­ other successful season will pay for’ the grand stand and leave a balance. Taken altogether, Nashville is to bei congratulated on the showing she has made this season in the base ball way, and it is to be hoped that the। proposed league of small towns in this part of the state may be formed, so that games may be played regular­ ly in each of the towns of the vicinity Nashville played twenty games dur­ ing the season, winning eleven and losing nine.

It is a faithful picture of American country life, with a health­ ful and invigorating atmosphere. In tho construction of this truly success­ ful play Mr*. Raymond has given to the American stage two character delineations, “Zeke” and “Daisy.” which stand alone as laugh producers, and one wonders at the unadulterated simplicity which characterizes those two excruciatingly funny creations: but tlie play has also its serious side of life, which brings into action an ex­ ceptionally strong company . of ar­ tints. “The Missouri Girl’ is jvmarkable for the attention. which is given to the details in the elaborate settings and accessories, giving the play a most realistic effect. During the action of the play novel musical numbers, songs and dances are in­ troduced. The oftener the public set' “The Missouri Girl,” the oftener they want to see it It is undoubtedly the greatest self-advertising play on the American stage today. That is the reason Why it has been seen by millions of theatre-goers during its years before the public. It pleases ail classes; hence its unprecedented suc­ cess.

NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 8, 1©O7. VOLUME XXXV SAVE FOR YOUR CHILDREN You can buy your children all they want, ybd can dress them in the beat clothes, you can give them all the spend­ ing money they want, but you can not do better with them than to start a bank account for them and instil in their minds the benefit to be de­ rived by saving. There is nothing better a father can do for his boy —nothing that will better insure economy, stimulate thrift, andsafeguard his further] education—than to. teach him enthusiasm over a savings account. Once he is rightly started, with opportunity to build, you have done the future man a wonderfully profitable service. If he gets the habit of saving, he will have money to educate himself when he grows to young manhood, he will have the money to grasp the opportunities that confront him many times, and,when he seas the benefit of what he may liave thought was his foresight, he will look back and bless the parents who taught him the worth of a dollar. This bank offers inducements for the saver—it pays 3% interest on savings accounts, and as further inducement it com­ pounds the interest quarterly. Why not start the boy today? Or why not start yourself? It's never too late to start a bank account. The Farmers* & Merchants’ bank not only, offers you these benefits but it offers-you safety. OFFICERS G. A. TRUMAN . . .

The survey was made some Lime ago, but it was claimed by some of the property owners that it was not right and hence the work was done over again. Work on the base ball park has been going merrily on the past week and the grading and filling has been nearly completed. When the work is all completed, Nashville will have as good a base ball and foot ball field as will be found in any small town in the country. Do not forget “The Missouri Girl,” .which will be at the Nashville opera house on the 19th. It is a play that has pleased Nashville people many times and comes here this time with a lot of new things. Get your seats re­ served at Von W. Furniss’ and in­ sure a good seat. «.

NUMBER 6 The Eaton county fair last, weete had but one day of good weather Thursday, and on that day a very largp crowd was present. Rain fell on ail the other dates and consequent-, ly the attendance suffered greatly. There was a large number from here present on Thursday and they report a.good show. Upon complaint of Wm. VanAnam, A. N. Appelman went to Middle villa last Monday and brought Mr. VanAnam's daughter, Frankie, back to Nashville. .The little girl is eleven years old and for some time she has been roaming the streets and would not attend school and her father de­ cided to place her somewhere where she could not run the streets all the time. County Agent Bauer was in town Tuesday and after a hearing of the case left the child in the care of the father, .who promised to proper­ ly care for Her. “The Old Clothes Man’' was one of the attractions at the Charlotte opera house during the Eatqn county fair. Charlie Lane, one of the managers of the opera house, sent a package of bills down to the fair grounds to be distributed. They ..were printed on carmine paper. In some way, a part of the bills got thrown or blown into the hog penssome of the fancy swine ate them, and a wholesale job of hog poisoning was on. One or two died and a lot of others were mighty sick for hogs, requiring the services of a distinguished hog-doctor. Now the question is, who’s lo pay? But, say! It must have been a rotten show if ey&n the bills would kill a hog, huh? Ilf it is good to raise money to send missionaries to the “heathen east’’, why should it not be better to raise money to have missionaries work among our own people who need the help more than the Chinese, the Can­ nibals and the other so-called heathen nations? Right here in Nashville are people who need help.. There are not many, but there are some, and the way the socities which raise money u> send some one to a foreign land with all expenses paid and on the long end of a good salary, sidestep the needy at home, is a caution and makes one tired clear through to the bone. If the same amount of missionary work was done at home, there would* not be as many young boys in the Industrial school at Lansing, nor would the like institution at Adrian always be full to overflowing with young girls. Neither would our sick poor have to call upon the authorities to aid them. The love of a position with a good salary connection has blinded the people to the old saw that “charity begins at. home,” and as far aa educating the heathen in the far east is concerned wo think it is better to let him alone, for recent developments have proven that as soon as he la “educated,” about the first thing be wants to do is to “clean up’’ on the nation that educated him. Apropos of the sewer question we will say that the village is up against a proposition that in time promises to work more harm to the residents of the village than the bonding of the town for. a sum sufficient to establish a good system. Dr. E. T. Morris, the village health officer, has recently received a communication from the health department of the state which will show to any one that the village needs a sewer system and needs it badly. Statistics in that department show that the per cent of typhoid, fever and other such diseases was greater during the last ten years in Nashville than in any other place in tiie state. This alone, knowing from what typhoid springs, is enough to convince any fair person that the es­ tablishment of a sewer system is es­ sential to public health, and health is the first requisite of life and happi­ ness. The water supply for the vil­ lage is taken from an average depth of not over eighteen feet, and possi­ bly less, and the refuse of all the ’ families being allowed to seep into the ground all over the village will certainly contaminate the water sup­ ply. and when the water supply of the village is filled with disease germs it is mighty dangerous. There is no question but what the people of the village will be given a chance to vote on the proposition next spring and if so, remember that it is only a little for each to pay to get the system and. also remember thi>t the health of the community can not be measured la dollars and cents. Michigan’s new railroad commis­ sion was organized last Monday with Railroad Commissioner C. L. Glas­ gow chairman; L. C. Cramton of La­ peer, secretary; James Bice, inspect­ ing engineer; W. C. Wills, chief clerk. The other members of the commission with Mr. Glasgow are George W. Dickerson and James Scully. The salary of the commis­ sioners is $3,000 each. This early the three commissicaers have found that they face many difficulties in es­ tablishing the new department. The many different phases of railroading brought under their jurisdiction will require a large amount of attention and they fear that no matter how much time they devote to it. the first year will not find them well up with their work. The first official act after organizing was to issue a circular in which it is announced to railway men and patrons of railways that within a few days rules will be adopted and {►ublished relative to proceedings beore the commission. While occupy­ ing the quarters of the former railway commissioner at present it is expected that quarters outside ^thc capitol will ultimately have^te be secured. The rooms are said'to be hardly adapted to the use of the commission of three members. All three oommissionera express the highest regard for each other and are evidently beginning their terms of office with the best of barmo y and good feeling prevailing. This week two of them will inspect the electric interurban roads of the state, following a plan mapped out by Com­ missioner Glasgow. The law re­ quires that at least one commissioner shall remain always at the office. �before I go n may be of noma interest tor me to say that I have*piayed my last game."

She drew aside the curtain and looked out, shading ber eyes to see clearer through the poor glass. All she perceived was a somewhat deeper smudge when the rider swept rapidly past, horse and man a shapeless shadow.

Woodland, Mich. Colts are valuable nowadays. A good one will sell at weaning time for about as much as a matured horse three or four years ago. Mr. W. L. Houser gave some sensible advice about the mare and foal in his talk beforo Wis­ consin farmers. He says it is well to keep pretty close watch of the mare at foaling time. You may save the colt by a little help. After it comes it may need a little aslstance to get the first milk from the mother, not usu­ ally, but sometimes that is the case, and you can well afford tp give the help. Thoroughly disinfect the navel cord, and do it frequently until it is healed. The greatest loss among young colts is due to the so-called navel disease which results In dull­ ness, swollen joints and frequently death. Feed the mare liberally while she is raising the colt. Oats and bran and pasture are the best feed. The colt will learn to eat some oats and bran at an early age if yop will give him a chance, and will do well as a result If you must work the mare, keep the colt in the barn during the day, letting it to the mother three or four times during that day, if possible. I like to wean my colts at about four months of age. If they have been taught to eat grain, they wiy make the shift without any loss of flesh or Impairment of the growth. A little cow's milk (skim milk Is good) helps amazingly to keep the colt going along at this time. Feed liberally of oats and bran, about all the colt will eat, and keep him a-golng in this way until he is a year old, when he should be thrifty and strong, weighing from 850 to 1,000 pounds. He will not be much trouble to yon after this time. W. FURNISS. Quality Determines the Improve­ ment of the Animal. Food is one of the great factors ip the improvement of. the horse. In. importance it stands next to inherit­ ance. The horse's energy Is depend­ ent on his food, and the ratio that en­ ergy bears to muscular development also comes from the kind and amount of food given. The skilled horseman is a student of food values, and it Is impossible for a man to become a skillful breeder without acquiring an intimate knowledge regarding the components of food. In some cases he must feed to, produce frame, in another instance he desires to give food that will produce great muscular develop­ ment, while in a third case, having enough of these, he desires to feed to give the horse an abundance of energy by which to make use of the frame be has and of the muscles that are fastened upon that frame. The food of tho growing horse must be rich Ln the elements that make muscle and bone. Such food wifi con­ tain a large amount of ash, a part of which is lime. The food must also be rich in the element phosphorus. The muscles require a large supply of ni­ trogen, such as is not found in corn­ stalks. timothy hay or the grain of corn, but which is found in clover hay. bran and oats. It Is claimed that food and environment frequently ovarbalance the effect of Inheritance and make great things possible which never would be possible on rations in­ sufficient in quality or quantity*.

Nev- Heart It 1* quite common knowledge among the stockmen that cattle do not do well when considerable numberk of sheep are allowed access to the same pasture. This is due to no dislike which these animals have for each other, but to their different method* of feedingCattle cover considerable territory, selecting the choicest bits of gras* and eating closely only when obliged to. Sheep on the other hand, move slowly and graze closely as they go. When sheep have access to the good pasture first they will graze it »o closely that the cattle cannot secure a good cropping If they follow them immediately. If the number of sheep allowed to a certain pasture is relatively small, little difficulty will be experienced. Eight or ten ewes may be allowed the range of a pasture which will supply 20 head of cattle and a few sheep can be kept in a-pasture with dairy cows If It Is not grazed too closely. A very satisfactory method of handling pasture with sheep and cat­ tle is practiced In some portions of southern Ohio and Indiana, says Farm and Home. The pasture is divided into three fields. The cattle are al­ lowed to graze field a until the grass is rather short, when they are turned into field b, and the sheep are turned into a from field c. This allows the sheep to follow the cattle tnd provides for an Interval after the sheep have left before the cattle are turned onto the pasture. During this time the grass attains con­ siderable growth and the effects of the close grazing of the sheep will have passed. This method Is also better for the pastures, as it provides for a period of rest, which is neces­ sary to secure the greatest returns from a given area. breeding what he calls a fenceless pig.

I presume every farmer wjio baa much hay to haal in the winter ha* had plenty of experience in tipping over with the load when the road* are poor and the drift* deep, says a writer In The Farmer. At lea»t thl* was our experience until we learned of the idea of putting side runner* on the hay rack. Hav% used thl* on our farm for some time and found it so useful that I will-try to explain for the benefit of tome who may not have heard of tho device before. Thl* device may be attached to any hay rack, but I will give measure- An Antl-TIp Hayrack.

The bed of the rack, of. course, is made of 1x8’*, 16 feet long with four 2x6’s eight feet long set across to form the sup­ port for bottom of rack. Now It Is to the ends of these cross pieces that the runners are attached In’the following manner. Take two pieces 2x6. eight laches long and fasten to the > end cross piece*, letting them extend down­ ward and give them a slight outward slant For the two between, the pieces went should be about 18 inches long and also alantetd. In the lower edge of the 18-tnch piece nearest the back, bore a hole and run an iron brace through to the side of the rack-bed. well up past the center of rack and fasten there securely. Next take a slxInch fence board, two feet longer than your rack and fasten to these four runner braces you have made, letting It project a little. at each end. and your runner is finished, the other side of course being the same. Now, when you have on a load of hay and the sled tips to one side. It will simply slide along on that runner until you come to a place where It will right itself. AND FURNISHINGS. WOMAN’S CRUELTY TO WOMAN Another child, a cripple, was ill. and every pennp she could scrape together was needed for actual living expenses. The cashier tried to plead the wom­ an’s cause. His family counted money In tens of dollars where the debtor counted in cents. He hoped to gain some mercy for ber, but all his en­ treaties only hardened his wife’s heart the more. She was an excellent wom­ an,. too. mind you, sympathetic — in — most of the affairs of life, and 'generou* Where her own charities were concerned, but the mere fact that an­ — ----------------romxn baa-------------borrowed money other -----from her husband turned be?

He did what any other man with red blood In his v^lhs would havp done, He looked the widow up and gave ber another 125. * " ’There are still $18 due on that first debt,’ he said. 'Pay IL for God’s sake, and end thl* muddle, and keep the other seven dollars for yourself. If you need more let me know.’ “The next day bls wife received a money order for $18. She didn’t need the money herself, so she turned it over to a Society of Foreign Missions. Still, she was satisfied; she had col­ lected a just debt, and peace again reigned In tho cashier’s household.” "Here Is a story of real life In New York that makes me proud of my •ax,” said the young man who smoke*.

Various agricultural stu­ dents have had different conceptions of how this work goes on, but the principal thing Is that it goes on. The when and the how regulate the profit* of the fttrm to a very great ex­ tent Many of our readers will re­ member that about three year* ago the rains in the spring tn Illinois came just before the land would naturally be plowed for the ordinary field crop*. The necessity for getting the crops early led many farmers to plow their fields while the soil was still too wet to be friable. The ground was just hi that condition, in which it broke up in bard lump*. During all the season men were seen in the field* trying to cultivate those lumps out of the sur­ face solL In preparing those fields for small grain the barrows were sent over them again and again. That Illustrate* the necessity for knowing when to do work. The how to do farm work is a mat­ ter of endless controversy, though in most things some well-proven rules are being evolved. One man on land that does not need to be plowed deep insist* on very deep plowing and dou­ bles the amount of work to be put on that field. This means doubling the cost of the labor, which in these days of high-priced labor Is a consideration of Importance.

Oct ir—The nation paid hoipage Monday to the memory of William McKinley when the splen­ did monument which marks his last resting place was unveiled in the presence of an assembled throng such as Canton never saw before, and with the president of the United States as the principal speaker. ' It was the tribute of a grateful na­ tion, both In word, and in deed, to “a good citizen, a brave soldier, a wise executive." and more than 50.000 per­ sons. representing all walks of life and every part of the country, partici­ pated In the ceremonies of dedicating the monument, the loving gift of a million American* whose contribu­ tions, aggregating 1600,000, provided the splendid tomb in which rests the bodies of the third of the* martyred presidents, bl* wife and their two children. . Noted Men In Gathering. Distinguished men from all parts of the country and many representa­ tives of foreign countries made the pilgrimage here to participate in the dedication’ of the mausoleum and made the event a notable one. The president arrived In Canton on a special train over the Pennsylvania railroad at 10:15 in the morning. The train was met by a reception commit­ tee. The president-Was escorted to the Central high school building, where he and his escort passed In re­ view before 1,700 School children grouped and dressed to represent the national flag. The president .immedi­ ately drove to the reviewing stand, where he witnessed the magnificent military and civic parade which took nearly an hour and a half in passing. At the close of the parade Mr. Roose­ velt took luncheon at the Auditorium, and at one o’clock was taken to Mon­ ument Hill. City Decorated and Guarded. The city of Canton was elaborately decorated for the occasion. Along the streets. In the downtown section, col­ umn* were erected, between which the president passed. The streets were roped off and no one was al­ lowed on the pavement This was done for the double purpose of pro­ tecting the president and handling the crowd to a better advantage. Thou­ sand* of soldier* manned thq ropes, and every spot was guarded. §oth in th* city and at the monu­ ment there were private grandstands to which admission was charged at a high figure. Some of these were au­ thorised by the Memorial committee upon the condition that a percentage of the proceed* be devoted to the Na­ tional McKinley Memorial association, to be used toward meeting 'the ex­ pense* of the day. Cheer* Greet Roosevelt. The arrival of President Roosevelt upon the stand was awaited'1 anxiously. and greeted with chdhrs. The audi­ ence arose. The president was the last to enter the stand. He wa* ac­ companied by Justice Day and Vice President Fairbanks. At'2:24 Justice Day called the assembiage^to order, and In a few words Introduced Gov. Harris, president of the day. Gov. Harris introduced Rev. Dr. Bristol, of Washington, D. C.. whose church President McKinley attended when in Washington. Dr. Bristol of­ fered prayer. Gov. Harris then de­ livered th* opening address of the ceremony. Justice Day arose to tell the story of the history of th* building of the mausoleum, which arose majestically in th* background, after singing of Th* Star Spangled Banner” by the assemblage.

The president stepped to the front of the platform and was greeted with applause. He delivered an eloquent eulogy of Wil­ liam McKinley, and the exercises closed with another song. , Immediately upon the close of the program President Roosevelt and party visited th* interior of the tomb. Thia was followed by a visit by the in­ vited guests, and then the general public was admitted. Thousands passed through the tomb. B ■ Four Burned to Death.

' Washington, Sept. 30.—Sunday wit­ nessed two events here of general in­ terest to the religion* world at large, and especially to the Episcopal church. The first and chief of these events was the laying of the founda­ tion stone of the Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul at Mount SL Alban, Wisconsin avenue. The other was the great open air service on the same grounds, under the auspices of the International convention of the Bro­ therhood of St. Andrew, which brought to a close the convention which has been In session here for the The corner atone laying was under the guidance of the Episcopal church In America. It was a notable occa­ sion, made more so by the presence of the president of the United States, the bishop of London and other dis­ tinguished people. Comer Stone I* Laid. After Scripture readings and pray­ ers by the bishops, interspersed with selections by the Marine band. Bishop Satterlee performed the ceremony of laying the foundation stone. The trowel was the one used In laying' the foundation stone of the capitrl build­ ing and the gavel was used by George Washington. The ceremony of laying the founda­ tion stone completed, Bishop Satterlee introduced President Roosevelt, who spoke as follows: "I have to say but one word of greet­ ing to you to-day, and to wish you godspeed in the work begun this noon. The salutation is to be deliv­ ered by our guest, the bishop of Lon­ don, who has a right to speak to- us. because he has shown In his life that he treats high office as high office should be treated, either in church or state, and above all, in a democracy such as ours, simply as giving a chance to render service.

Following the address of the presi­ dent, the bishop of London delivered the salutation. Turning towards the president, the bishop thanked him for hi* presence "amidst all hl* multitudinous du tie*." He also expressed his thanks for the "burning words of encouragement and inspiration of the president," which he said, would send him back across the seas inspired for his work. The bishop then referred to the Canter­ bury ambon, or pulpit, which he brought over ar a gift to the cathe­ dral. "I come," he said, "as the suc­ cessor of St. Augustine's champion, Milotus, to bring yqu from the old diocese of London, of which you one day were a part, a real message of love and godspeed.” Actreaa Found Dead in Bed.

Republicans and Democrats Prepar­ ing for Nsxt Campaign—May Set­ tle Waterway Legislation. Springfield. II!., OcL 1.—Politicians from all sections of the state are flocking here to attend the annual state fair love feast and political round-up. The Leland hotel In which so -many political deals have been hatched Is tho scene of activity in the heart of the city where the various candidates have • headquarters. The Sangamon club on the state fair grounds and within a stone's throw of the big grand stand facing the race­ track is the attractive spot for the po­ litical chiefs. It is Just outside the southern limits of the city. Democrats as well as Republicans are facing toward the state fair this week to Ipy fences tor the presiden­ tial canvass of next year. Between discussions of political expediency at the state fair and of the lakes to the gulf deep waterway movement at the Memphis convention at the end of the week, It Is believed that the fate of Illinois water way leg­ islation will be decided before the general assembly reconvenes In a week. Gov. Deneen left Monday for Keo­ kuk where he met President Roose­ velt and proceeded to Memphis, leav­ Ing the political round-up at the state fair to proceed without his Immediate surveillance. The governor Is said to plan to make the water way question a campaign issue. Next spring the governor will be at Springfield again, keeping a critical eye on the legislation. His friends ex­ pect that so much public sentiment will be stirred up by the president's river trip and his four speeches, and by the governor's speech, that the legislative leaders who are planning to adjourn sine die a few hours after con­ vening will And the subject a little too warm to handle so carelessly. Il­ linois, they point out, Is the keystone of the water way situation. Unless this state takes action to promote the water way through the valley of the Illinois and the Don Plaines there will be little chance that the federal gov­ ernment will appropriate the huge sums needed to complete the work.

The Detroit. Grand Haven k Milwaukee railway refuses to report for the rea­ son that it claims Its property is ex­ empt from ad valorem taxation by the terms of Its special charter, but the attorney general is contesting the company’s contention in the courts. The Au Sable & Northwestern Rail­ way company has been dissolved and the property Is now owned by H. M. Loud’s sons, of Au Sable who assert that it Is private property, assessable locally, and Is not within the jurisdic­ tion of the tax commission. On this account it refuses to file a report. As the dissolution of the corporate exist­ ence of the company was not effectu­ ated until after June 30, the tax com­ mission will place the property on the rolls and leave the collection of the tax to the courts. Complaints that a number qf coal mines in the vicinity Of Bay City are under assessed are be­ ing investigated by the state tax com­ mission. A review of the rolls has been fixed for OcL 2. and witnesses subpoenaed for the hearing. Visit* Upper Peninsula Bank*. » State Banking Commissioner H. M.

We have before explained that cer­ tain New York people claim to be the descendents of John Jackson, once a New York merchant, and a brother of Daniel Jackson, the eccentric Maple Grove hermit who died several years ago. The latter, after making certain bequests provided in his .will that the residue of his property should be given to the children of his deceased brother, John Jackson. The ad­ ministrator advertised for these heirs in New York papers, but failed to find them. The money was then covered into the county treasury as provided by law, and was subject to call by the state. Before the state claimed it, the New Yorlf parties referred to made their claim. Attorney W. W. Potter journeyed to New York City to see these heirs, and secure their affidavits. Recently Deputy Attorney General Chase also went to New York to visit these claimants. Monday he wrote Judge Mack stating that he believed the New York claimants were the de­ scendents of John Jackson.

The board will report the standings of applicants to Mr. Hamilton and the applicant for West Point standin" highest will be nominated cadet and the one standing second will be nomi­ nated alternate. In like manner, the applicant for Annapolis standing highest will be nominated midshipman and the three applicants having the next highest standing will l>e nomi­ nated first, second and third alter­ nates respectively.

SCHOOL NOTES, Don’t miss our exhibition at the fair. The German class have begun the reading of Ischokke's, “Der Zerbrochene Krug/’ Rev. Voelker conducted chapel exercises Monday morning and gave the pupils of the high school a very pleasant talk on “Ideals” and how we may reach our ideals by constant application. Supt. Fuller, Rev. Fletcher and Robin Clifford were in Hastings Tuesday to arrange the school exhibit. The Ancient History note books have arrived and the pupils are busy with their historical maps. The pupils of room three have made a beautiful border of artificial leaves for their room. Patrons should en­ courage the pupils by visiting the rooms and seeing the work. Room two have started their flower gardens for the winter. The room seems more cheerful now. Frieda Schulze has returned to school after a week’s illness. The second and third grades are studying the life of Rosa Bonheur. Carl Cool ba ugh and Willie Hecker were absent from room five last week on account of sickness. The seventh grade wrote on exami­ nations in arithmetic and grammar for the fair. TRUE TO HIS PROMISE. By Their Own Testimony, Doctor Had Rsjuvsnatstb Patients. A German doctor who claimed to have discovered the secret of restorIng youth, advertised in London that be could in two days rejuvenate the meet decrepit hag. This brought a. crowd of ancient dames to his houae. At the Drat interview he invited each patient to write ber surname, Chris­ tian name and age on < piece of paper. The ages whereto they pleaded guilty varied, but all ruled high. The 'doctor undertook to give each patient the promised elixir next day. On tho ap­ pointed day the doctor regretted that he unlortenatoly had mislaid the pa­ per containing his youth-seekers’ ages, and he, therefore, requested each one to write it down and call again. In writing down her age the second time each woman took many years off the age she previously had admitted. The doctor, pretending to have found the first papers, called them to witness, comparing the lists, that he bad kept his wo^l, Inasmuch as in 48 hours they had all become many years younger.

What a lot of people in this world who want something tor nothing. They and the “getrioh-quVak" people would make a good-sized army. sessed of the belief that this , is an tge when one'can really get something for nothing and that there is no sense in the old way of “plodding along” when it comes to amassing wealth. Better get rid of that idea, boys, as soon as you can. There are a good many “getrlch-quick” men in our jails now and more are going in every day, and the cud of disappointment the get-something-for-nothing people are chewing is large and bitter. The oldpr you grow, boys, the more apparent it will be to you that he who would be truly successful must pay the price all real success costs. The path of success in business is Invariably the path of common • sense. Notwithstanding all that is • said about “lucky strikes,” the best kind of success in a man's life is not that which comes by accident. The only “g<>od time coming” we are justified in hoping for is that which we are capable of making for ourselves. When you grow to be a man you will want money to start in business and you can have it If you jrill take lime by the forelock now and save while you’re young.

Her cheeks were flushed, her wide-open eyes -filled with ques­ tioning. her pale fluffy hair frolicking with the breeze, as pretty a picture of young womanhood u any one could wish to see. Nor was she unaware of this fact During the final stage of her Journey she had found two con­ genial Souls, sufficiently picturesque to harmonise with her ideas of wild western romance. These two men were lolling in the less comfortable seat opposite, secret­ ly longing for a quiet smoke ouuide, yet neither willing to desert this eaaV era divinity to his rival. The big fel­ low, his arm run carelessly through the leather sling, his bare bead pro­ jecting half out of the open window, was Jack Moffat, half-owner of the "Golden Rule." and enjoying a wellearned reputation as the most ornate and artistic liar In the territory. For two hours he had been exercising his talent to the full, and merely paused I how in search of some fresh Inspire'tlon, holding in supreme and silent contempt the rather feeble imitations 'of his less-gifted companion. t The fly in the ointment of this long day’s ride, the third party, whose un­ desirable presence and personal knowledge of Mr. Moffat’s past career rather seriously interfered with the letter’s flights of Imagination, was WilUam McNeil, foreman of the "Bar V” ranch over on Slnsinlwa creek. MeNeil was not much of a talker, having •dmlr.tloa. Moffat disdained reply, and the lurching stage rolled rapidly down the valley, the mules now laxheu Into a wild gallop to the noisy accompani­ ment of the driver's whip. .

"Here’s where you get out, miss," announced the John, leaning down from his seat to peer within. "This yere is the Herndon shebang." The gentlemen inside assisted Miss Spencer to descend In safety to the weed-bordered walk, where she stood shaking her ruffled plumage Into shape, and giving directions regarding her luggage. Then the two gentle­ men emerged. Moffat bearing a grip­ case. a handbox, and a basket, while McNeil supported a shawkstrap and a small trunk. Thus decorated they meekly followed her lead up the nar­ row path -toward the front door. The latter opened suddenly, and Mrs. Herndon bounced forth with vocifer­ ous welcome.

It Is frequently the castt that con­ sumption In some form exists among poultry. It is almost hopeless to at­ tempt to stamp out the disease, and the sooner such flocks are gotten rid of and healthy ones Installed in their places the better.

An Explanation of This Peculiar Phe­ nomenon in Handling Cream. Frequently in churning gas will ac­ cumulate after several rounds and create a pressure inside sufficiently great to produce a popping report at the buttermilk outlet when the cork is removed. This delights the children and calls for an explanation such as is requested In the following: ‘•What causes the compressure of air in a churn? I have often noticed that after several turns, of a barrel churn one would find the cream oozing out at the sides of the cover. In taking out the cork at the bottom the gas would escape with force." The compressure of air is due to the formation of gas produced by certain bacteria. These organisms exist In the cream when ft Is being soured for churning. The gas is a by-product, simply speaking, and as it forms by fermentation or other processes In­ duced by the germs, it is held In the body of the cream, being unable to rise and escape on account of the den­ sity of the sama. The maximum amount of gas is naturally contained in the cream just at churning time. A little is liberated in stirring and pouring. Cream that has been agitated with a paddle dur­ ing the ripening process will often show bubbles on the surface. This is the same gas as Is collected in the churn. The greater the viscosity of the cream the larger will be the bubbles before they break, says Coleman's Rural World. The presence of this phenomenon Indicates that more clean­ liness could be practiced. • The ob­ jection to the gas is that it is liable to Impart more or less of strong or undesirable flavor in cream of fi.'Stclass purity. Buy a Good Separator. When a separator Is to be purchased, see that It is a good one. There are many cheap and worthless machines on the market that will simply disgust the buyers when they come to use them. The separators ad­ vertised in the Farmers' Review are not of this class, but are of the class that will give satisfaction for many years to come. The buyer of a sep­ arator should remember that when a separator is offered him at a price far below what the regular companies can make them for. something must be the matter with IL The matter is generally that the cheap machine Is manufactured at a very low cost out of poor material and lacks exactness in adjustment. Without that exact­ ness a separator is of no value. Did You Ever. Did ^ou ever stop to figure out how much you lose by not knowing exact­ ly what your cow* are doing from day to day? . Do you ever alt down and study hard aa to why your herd gave 300 pounds of milk one night and morning and only 273 pounds the sec­ ond night and morning following? Did you ever add a fresh cow to your herd and find at the end of a week that you were getting only as much milk as you were before the. fresh cow was added, though you had fully counted upon maintaining the original flow and being better off by just one cow's milk? How often were you successful in getting the herd back to Its former flow under these circumstances? The Far-Sighted Farmers. - - % The far-sighted farmers are plan­ ning on having an abundance of rough­ age for the cows next winter. With plenty of hay. corn fodder, millet (al­ though millet is not an extra good feed to produce milk) straw, etc., sup­ plemented with a light grain ration, if the present high prices of grain pre­ vail, they will be able to make money out of their oqws next winter. The prevailing sentiment is in favor of more cows, and in this the farmer* are ‘wise In their day and genera- happy morning looking over her wed­ ding presents and finding out what she bad really received. Before the rushed that she had no time to exam ,tne her treasures closely, although she large number of notes of acknowledg­ ment Ther, too, 70 gifts had com* after sbe had gone away. Th* bride went Into the room where the presents were arranged on< all the tables the house afforded and two borrowed from neighbors, and sepa­ rated the sheep from the lambs. The first thing which caught her eye were a number of punch glasses. She counted them and found there were 440 in all. “They will be awfully nice when you give a ball," said her sister, who was accompanying her on this voyage of discovery. The bride admitted that they would. "But you see, dear," she said thoughtfully, "our apartment has only five rooms and a bath, and the little library table Is but IB by 20 feet, sc that ft will probably be some years before I can invite 440 people to take dinner with me. or even give a ‘small and early' dance to that number.” The sister giggled, and they inspect ed the coffee spoons, which came next on the table. There were 48 coffee spoons, and the bride sorted them into little groups and looked them over admiringly. "I will use them by tiirns," she said. “This set first; then that, and so on." "Why not have them exchanged for something -else?" asked the -sister. ‘T don't think that would be nice," replied the bride, primly. There were 17 cut-glass bonbon dishes and 20 bonbon spoons. There were 36 silver knives which the bride said were pie knives and her sister declared should be used either for ice cream or fish, or both, as occasion demanded. There were 11 clocks. "We can put two in each room," Said the bride, "and I mustn't forget to go downtown this very afternoon and buy a dollar alarm clock to waken George in the morning." "These are the puzzles." explained the sister, as the twain approached a table laden with silver implement^ “Each member of the family has been given three guesses as to the identity of each but we haven't succeeded in making them all out yet." The bride took’ up the implement* one by one, knitted her brows and puzzled over them. ' "This looks to me like something tc eat asparagus with,” she said, refer ring to a gnarled specimen. "Oh! we've guessed that," replied the sister; "that is a combination cork-screw and bottleopener and lc< pick, and it is solid silver. It was easy but just try your brains on this." “This" resembled nothing so much as a dynamite bomb with a fussy top It ijas evidently intended as a recepta cle for some special thing, but what the bride could not make out in the least There were all sorts and con ditlon* of forks and pronged thing* which were not particularly ornamen tai and would only be useful if the owner knew to what to apply them. "I should take -them to a jewele: and have him explain their uses,’ said the sister. “I will," acquiesced the bride. "Per h*RS he will know, though I doubt it Did I get any doylies or embroidered things' for the table?" “No, but you are the happy owner of 11 lamps." “And there is both electric light and gas in the apartment. Still, when wc build a summer home they Will come in nicely. I hope we received some pictures.” “No. no pictures, but 14 trays of various sorts and conditions." “Any furniture?" -.'Certainly not; people don’t give such things, but you received 11 pep­ per pots." “We will certainly have a spicy life,” sighed the bride. “1 had hoped some one would send me a tea table." "It seems to me you are awfully un grateful." said the sister. “I am not," contradicted the bride “I love everything I have. They are all perfectly lovely, and I wouldn’t part with one of them for the world. I am merely taking an InventoryTell you what I will do.' I will go right down town and find out what these things are Intended for and—and—er —if you don't think It would be dread ful. I will take a basketful of dupli­ cates along and exchange them for articles I did not get. You are sure you don't think it will be dreadful? But what will the givers say when they come to call and don't find their gifts? You honestly don't think it will matter? Well, then, come with me and we will exchange the lamps for tablecloths and some of those silver spoons for a bread tray, and seven pie knives for a carving set.

John T. Rich, Henry C. Smith, of Adrian, and Fred Postal, of Detroit Gov. Warner and his staff, state offi­ cers, members of the legislature and of the commission and others accom­ panying the party will meet at Detroit October 26. The start will be made from the Michigan Central de­ pot at 12:35 o'clock that day and the train will run through to Washington over the Pennsylvania road, arriving there Sunday morning. This will give the entire day at the capital, and in the evening one of the Norfolk & Washington steamers will carry the party to the exposition, arriving there about nine o'clock Monday morning. There will be some formal exercises Tuesday at the Michigan building, where a luncheon will be served. The return trip will be begun Tuesday evening, taking the boat for Wash­ ington. From that point no attempt will be made to keep the party to­ gether unless the number ,1s sufficient to justify a special train. The com­ mission has secured a rate of 118.60 for the round trip, good for 15 days, going and returning by the same route. Those desiring to return by different routes can secure optional tickets good for 60 days for 122.05. A berth on the sleeper from Detroit to Wash­ ington will be 13.50, and berths and meals on the boat from Washington to Norfolk will be extra. Those intend­ ing to join the party should notify the commission at 1016 Hammond build-" Ing not later than October $0, as It Is required that the number of berths necessary be known earlyv The com­ mission also is arranging for hotel ac­ commodations at the exposition through Secretary Walbridge, who is tn charge of the Michigan building. Bean Famine Threatened. The bean crop is a question that is bothering buyers to no small extenL The uncertainty of the crop has made a great change in prices and quotations are changing every day. Beans are unusually late on account of thcT recent rains. A year ago five to seven carloads of beans had been 'shipped from the stale, hardly three have been sent out this year. The local market Is paying about $1.50 for beans that will pick about 12 per cent. That is about 12 per cent, of the beans will be a first-class product and will have to be culled ouL it is claltaed that the bean crop in the state of New York Is as good as the average, but It is also late. Indian­ apolis and Chicago are having a ’Sean famine and one buyer received a tele­ gram from Chicago asking for a car­ load or all he could send. When the dealer wired a reply that he only had three bags, the 'Chicago firm immedi­ ately wired back: "Send the three bags; we can use them anyway.’* However the three bags were not sent as they were promised to a local dealer. .

WOULD DIE TO SAVE SON Mother Who Would Sacrifice Her Life to Save Her Child, Unwittingly Solves-Mystery of Chad­ wick Murder. Detroit.—A mother's love for her only son has at last solved the mys-. tery snrrbhndlng the murder of Charles' Chadwick at Atlanta, -which for more than a week has baffled the authorities and attracted the attention of the whole state. ' " Driven almost insane by the fear that her son, Eugene, would be con­ victed of the murder of his father, Mrs. Chadwick, the widow, wrote an extraordinary confession in which she asserts over -and over again that she and not Sugene was guilty of the mur­ der. It was her intention to end her own life with a pistol shot, leaving be­ hind the paper which should .forever brand her as a murderess, but which she hoped would free her son. Her sacrifice was In vain, for just as she was-placing the revolver to her head the screams of her little daugh­ ter attracted the attention of a deputy sheriff, who entered the room just in time to wrest the revolver from the frantic woman. ’ The confession was in the form of a letter written to her son, in which she says that, goaded on by years of abuse received at the hands of her brutal, drunken husband, and nearly -crazed by fear of being killed by him, she resolved to put an end. to hls ex­ istence. She said as her husband left the bouse she put on her son's shoes, took down the rifle which her husband himself had loaded, followed Dim down the road, and shot him as be sat by the wayside. Later, after being subjected to a severe examination by the officers, Mrs. Chadwick broke down and admit­ ted that her confession was false. She maintained, however, that Eugene was not guilty, declaring that she wished to save her innocent son .even at the cost of her own life. She herself, she said, had no wish to live longer and was perfectly willing to die. Then she followed with a story of abuse and violence received at the hands of the dead man for 25 years.

"I think quite likely, uncle; wouldn't he make a splendid addition to Mr. Wynkoop’s church?" Herndon choked, his entire body Bhaklng with Ill-suppressed enjoy­ ment ”1 should imagine yes,” he ad­ mitted finally. "Billy McNeil—oh. Lord! There’s certainly a fine open­ ing fog you to do some missionary work, Phoebe.” "Well, and I'm going to,” announced the young lady, firtniy. "I gueas 1 can read men's characters, and I know all Mr. McNeil needs is to have some one show an Interest In him. Have you a large church, Mr. Wynkoop?” "Not large If judged from an eastora standpoint,” he confessed, with •ome regret' "Our present member­ ship Is composed of eight women and three men. but the congregational at­ tendance Is quite good, and constantly • Increasing." “Only eight women and three men!” breathlessly. “And you have been la­ boring upon this field for five years! How could it be so small?” Wynkoop pushed back his chair, anxious to redeem himself la the esti­ mation of this fair stranger. “Miss Spencer," he explained, “my parish comprises this entire mining ration, and I am upon horseback among the foothills and up in the ranges for fully a third of my time. The spirit of the mining population, as well as of the-cattlemen, while not actually hostile, is one of indifference to religious thought. For three long years I worked here without even a church organization or a building; and apparently without the faintest en­ I couragement Now that we have a nucleus gathered, a comfortable build­ ing erected and> paid for. with an in­ creasing congregation, I begin to feel that those seemingly barren five years were not without spiritual-value.” She quickly extended her hands. **0h, it is so heroic, so self-sacrificing! I am going to help you. Mr. Wynkoop, in every way I possible can—I shall certainly speak to both Mr. Moffat and Mr. McNeil the very first opportunity. I feel almost sure that they will Join." The unavoidable exigencies of a choir practice compelled Mr. Wynkoop to Retire early, nor was It yet late vftien the family circle also dissolved, and the two girls were themselves alone. The light was finally extinguished; the silvery moonlight streamed across the foot of the bed; and the regular breathing of the girls evidenced slum­ ber. CHAPTER XII. Under Orders. It was no pleasant assignment to duty which greeted First Lieut. Don­ ald Brant, commanding Troop N, Sev­ enth cavalry, when that regiment came once more within the environs of civilization, from its summer ex­ ercises In the field. Bethune had de­ veloped into a somewhat* important post, socially as well as from a strict­ ly military standpoint, and numerous, indeed, were the attractions offered there to any young officer whose duty “You Must Be an Odd Sort of a Girl," He Commented, Soberly. called him to serve the colon on those bleak Dakota prairies. Brant frowned at the innocent words, reading them over again with gloomy eyes and an exclamation of unmitigated disgust, yet there was' no escaping their, plain meaning. Trouble was undoubtedly brewing among the 0loux, trouble In which the Cheyennes, and probably others also, were becoming Involved Every soldier petroling that long northern border recognized the ap­ proach of some dire development, some early coup of savagery. . Brant was not blind to all this, nor to the necessity of having In readiness selected bodies of seasoned troop;, .yet It was not in soldier nature to. refrain from grumbling when the earliest de­ tail chanced to fall to him. But or­ ders were orders in that country’, and although he crushed the innocent pa­ per passionately beneath his heel, five hours later he was in saddle, riding steadily westward.’ his depleted troop of horsemen clattering at bls baels Up the'valley of the Bear Water, slightly above Glencald,—far enough beyond the saloon radius to protect his men from possible corruption, yet within easy reach of the military tele­ graph,—they made camp In the early morning upon a wooded terrace over­ looking the stage road, and settled quietly down as one of those numer­ ous posts with which the army chiefs sought to hem in the dissatisfied redmen, and learn early the extent of their hostile plans. Brant was now in a humor consid­ erably happier than when he first rode forth from Bethune. He watched the men of his troop while with quip and song they made comfortable comp, and then strolled slowly up the valley, his own affairs soon completely for­ gotten In the beauty of nour-by hills beneath the golden glory of the morn­ ing sun. Once he paused and looked back upon ugly Glencald, dingy and forlorn even at that distance; then be crossed the narrow stream by means of a convenient log, and clambered up the somewhat steep bank. A heavy fringe of low bushes clung close along the edge of the summit, but a plainly defined path led among their intri­ cacies. He pressed his way through, coming Into a glade where sunshine flickered, through the overarching branches of great trees, and the grass was green and short, like that of a well-kept lawn. As Brant emerged from the under­ brush he suddenly beheld a fair vision of young womanhood resting on the grassy bank just before him. She was partially reclining, as if startled by his unannounced approach, her face turned toward him, one hand grasping an open book, the other shading her eyes from the glare of the sun. Some­ thing In the graceful polite, the piquant, uplifted face, the dark gloss of heavy hair, and the unfrightened gaze held him speechless until the picture had been Impressed forever upon his mem­ ory. He beheld a girl on the verge of womanhood, fair of skln^the red glow of health flushing her cheeks, the lips parted in surprise, the sleeve fallen back from one white, rounded arm, the eyes honest, sincere, mysterious. She recognized him with a glance, and her lips closed as she remembered how and when they had met before. But there was no answering recollec­ tion within his eyes, only admiration —nothing clung about this Nalda to remind him of a neglected waif of the garrison. She read all this in his face, and the lines about her mouth changed quickly Into a slightly quiz­ zical smile, her eyes brightening. “You should at least have knocked, sir,” she ventured, sitting up on the grassy bank, the better to confront him, “before Intruding thus unin­ vited." He lifted his somewhat dingy scout­ ing bat aad bowed humbly. "I perceived no door giving warning that I approached such presence, and the first shock of surprise was per­ haps as great to me as to you. Yet, now that I have blundered thus far, I beseech that 1 be permitted to venture upon yet another step.” She sat looking at him, a trim, sol­ dierly figure, his face young and pleas­ ant to gaze upon, and her dark eyes sensibly softened. "What step?” “To tarry for a moment beside the divinity of this wilderness." She laughed with open frankness, her white teeth sparkling behind the red, parted lips. "Perhaps you may, if you will first coneent, to be sensible,” she said, with returning gravity; "and I reserve the right to turn you away whenever you begin to talk or act foolish. If you accept these conditions, you may sit down." He seated himself upon the soft grass ledge, retaining the hat in his hands. “You must be an odd sort of a girl,” he commented, soberly, “not to welcome an honest expression of ad­ miration.” “Oh. was that it? Then I duly bow my acknowledgment I took your words for one of those silly compli­ ments by. which men_ believe they honor women. I am not a baby, nefr am I seeking amusement." He ’glanced curiously at her book. "And yet you condescend to read love stories,”, he said, smiling. "I expected to discover a treatise on philosophy." .*1 read whatever I chance to get my hands on. here in Glencald." she re­ torted. "just as I converse with who­ mever comes along. I am hopeful of some day discovering a rare gem hid­ den In the midst of the trash. I am yet young." ” • "You are indeed young," he said, quietly, “and with •ome’ of lift’s les­ sons still to learn. One Is that frank­ ness Is not necessarily flippancy, nor honesty harshness. However. If you will, offer me a topic worthy the occa sion, in either philosophy, science, or literature, I will endeavor to feed your mind.” 1 She uplifted her innocent eyes de­ murely to his face. “You are so kind. I am deeply interested just'now in the Japanese conception of the transmi­ gration of souls.” J "How extremely fortunate! It chances to be my favorite theme, but my mental processes are peculiar, and you must permit me to work up to­ ward it somewhat gradually. For in­ stance. as a question leading that w,ay. how, in the incarnation of this world, do you manage -to exist in such a hole of a place?—that Is, provided you really, reside here.” “Why, I consider this a most de­ lightful nook.” "My reference was to Glencald.” "Oh! Why. I live from within, not without. Mind and heart, not environ­ ment, make life, and my time is occu­ pied most congenially. 1 am being faithfully nutured on the Presbyterian catechism, and also trained in the graces of earthly society. These alter­ nate, thus preparing me for whatever may happen in this world or the next.” His face pictured bewilderment, but also a determination to persevere. “An interesting combination, I admit But from your appearance .this cannot al­ ways have been your home?” “Oh, thank you. I believe not al’ways; but I wonder at your being able to discern my superiority to these sur­ roundings. And do you know your questioning Is becoming quite per­ sonal? Does that yield mo aa equal privilege?” He bowed, perhaps relieved at thus permitting her to assume the initia­ tive, and rested lazily back upon the grass, his eyes intently studying her face. “I suppose from your clothes you must be a soldier. What Is that figure 7 on your. hat. for?" "The number of my regiment, the Seventh cavalry.” Rer glance was a bit disdainful as she coolly surveyed him from head to foot ”1 should Imagine that a strong, capable appearing fellow like you might do much better than that There te so much work in the world worth doing, and so much better pay.” "What do you mean? Isn't a sol­ dier's life a worthy one?” "Oh, yes, of course, in a way. We have to have soldiers. I suppose; but if I were a man I'd bate to waste all ray .life tramping around at a month." He smothered what sounded like a rough ejaculation, gazing into her .de­ mure eyes as if he strongly suspected a joke hid in their depths. "Do—do you mistake me for an enlisted man?" “Oh, I didn’t know; you said you were a soldier, and’that's what I al­ ways beard they got I am sq glad if they give you more. I was only going to say that I believed I ccald get you a good place in McCarthy’s store if you wanted it He pays |G5 and his clerk has just left” Brant stared at her with open mouth, totally unable for the moment to decide whether or not that inno­ cent, sympathetic face masked mis­ chief. Before he succeeded .in regain­ ing confidence and speech, she had risen to her feet, holding back her skirt with one hand. "Really, I must go," she announced calmly, drawing back toward the slight opening between the bushes. "No doubt you have done fully as well as you could, considering your position in life; but this has proved another disappointment You have fallen, far, very far, below my ideal. Good-by.” He sprang instantly erect, his chedfts flushed. "Please don't go without a further word. W’e seem predestined to misunderstand. I am even willing to confess myself a fool In the hope of some time being able to convince you otherwise. You have not even told me that you live here; nor do I know your name." She shook her head positively, re­ pressed merriment darkening her eyes and wrinkling the corners of her mouth. "It would be highly improper to Introduce myself to a stranger— we Presbyterians never do that” “But do you feel no curiosity as to who I may be?” “Why, not in the least; the thought is ridiculous. How very’ conceited you must be to imagine such a thing!" He was not a man easily daunted, nor did he recall any previous em­ barrassment In the presence of a young woman. But now he confronted something utterly unique; those quiet eyes seemed to look straight through him. His voice faltered sadly, yet succeeded in asking: “Are we. then, never to meet again? Am I to under­ stand this to be your wish?" She laughed. “Really, str, I am not aware that I have the slightest desire lb the matter. I have given it no thought, but I presume the possibility of our meeting again depends largely upon yourself, and the sort of society you keep. Surely you cannot expect that I would seek such an opportu­ nity?” Re bowed humbly. "You mistake my purpose. I merely meant to ask if there was not some possibility of our again coming together socially—in the presence ofmutual friends."- ‘ “Ob, I scarcely think *o; I do not re­ member ever having met any soldiers at th* social functions here—except­ ing. officers. We are extremely ex­ clusive in Glencald.” she dropped him a. mocking courtesy, "and I have al­ ways moved In the most exclusive aet.” . Piqued by her tantalizing manner, he asked, "What particular social functions are about to occur that may possibly open a passage Into your guarded presence?" She seemed Immersed in thought, her face turned partially aside. "Un­ fortunately, I have not my Ust of en­ gagements here," and she glanced about at him shyly. "I can recall only one at present, and I am not even cer­ tain—that is, I do not promtse-rto at­ tend that However, I may do so. The Miners* Bachelor dub gives a re­ ception and ball to-morrow evening in honor of the new schoolmistress.'' "What Is her name?" with respon­ sive eagerness. s She hesitated, as If doubtful of the strict propriety of mentioning it to a stranger. "Miss Phoebe Spencer," she said, her eyes cast demurely down. “Ah!" he exclaimed. In open tri­ umph; “and have I, then, at last made fair capture of your secret? You are Miss Phoebe Spencer.” She drew back still farther within the recesses of the bushes, at his sin­ gle victorious step forward. "I? Why .certainly not I am merely Miss Spencer’s-'star' pupil, so you may easily judge something of what her superior attainments must neces­ sarily be. But I am really going now, and I sincerely trust you will be able to secure a ticket for to-morrow night; for If you once meet this Miss Spencer you will never yield another single thought, to me, Mr.—Mr.—" her eyes Women and Elevator*.

Letter From Vern Andrews, Who Is In “the Frozen North.,* Being among pioneers, I will write of pioneer life as I see ii and it may take some of your older readers back to the days when they were pioneers. Tbe settlers of the Lake Superior re­ gion are fgerv patriotic considering the many' different countries they came from. Every little old log school house has a flag which is al­ ways unfurled on holidays, and many of the settlers have a flag pole in front of the house and be the home “ever so humble” you can see the old flag waving in the breeze. In fact, there is a rivalry between them to see who can float the flag the high<Mt, and as this is the country where long poles rear their tops high toward the clouds, you can safely assume that "old Glory” gets pretty high sometimes. The people here look at tbe Fourth of July as their one great­ est holiday, and the way it is cele­ brated here differs greatly from the celebrations held in more settled countries. They are in the habit of congregating at some one’s house like the school maam used to “board around”. Every y< year some one en­ tertai ns. I attends tertains. attended the last celebra­ tion which was held at the home of a man called “General”, an appelation he gained through constant talk of the Civil war. He is minus the fore finger of his left hand, with nothing hut space where his left ear should adora his hoary head, and he never tires telling how they were shot away. One of his neighbors tells a different story about it however. He says that a negro chewed his ear off in a, sa­ loon fight at Marquette and that he lost his finger by the buzz saw route. But that don’t make any difference, anyway, for he has told his story so many times that he actually believes It by this time. And I am forced to almost believe him myself. It is bet­ ter to think that his finger was given up to save his country and that his ear reposes in the marshes along the Potomac, than it is to think that it went to appease the hungef of a “coon.” From every direction and accompanied by their “fellows”, came happy Swedish, Polish, Italian and Norwegian girls, all enroute to the celebration. No high steping horses; no beauti­ ful top buggies; no band to dispense grand music; yet a beautiful wellmatched yoke of oxen was in evi­ dence. The morning was beautiful and I little thought of seeing snow and ice before night. The first of the amusements to be pulled off at this great celebration was a ball game principally between the Swedes and Finlanders. The writer was chosen by the Swedes as their slab artist, but was knocked out of tho box the first inning. The game proceeded, however, with some very good plays on both sides, considering boys with but very little practice, un­ til the sixth inning, when the ball was lost in a snow drift and the game was called, standing 7 to 8 in favor of the Finlanders. “You never saw Chase & Sanborn’s line of Coffee in anything but a high-class grocery store.” —Tliis is an extract taken from a New York daily paper.

MUNRO “between the bank»” by the general’s wife and will give it as follows: Slap into a bucket a pan of rich cream; slam in flavoring to suit the taste; place on door step Or well curb for 40 minutes and then serve. ' , Talk about grand countries but what more could people ask for than this. Why! I can remember when I lived in Maple Grove, spending half my time pounding ice and turning icp cream freezer cranks when 1 should have been doing something else and I make this statement without any fear of contradiction, I had ought to have been fishing dr attending a ball game, whooping and yelling' and abusing the umpire. ' I was greatly surprised at the-musi­ cal .talent displayed by some of these foreigners. -There was present upon this occasion a very beautiful and talented Italian girl, who had just ar­ rived from Itlav. And while she could not handle the English language much better than the American women handle a hammer, yet I never shall forget how, with a voice like a night­ in-gale, she made the mighty Michigan forest ring with the songs of her own native land; sang them, to us as she had often done before to her own people far across the- rolling. ocean ’neath Italy’s sunny skies. . About two o’clock in the afternoon, while the general was entertaining us with a long description of the battle of Fair Oaks, his wife, or first “lieu­ tenant’ ’, entered the room and saluted. She was a Norweigan lady and while her English was at fault, there was no possible.means of mistaking her ges­ tures. No public speaker ever mounted the rostrum and used them more properly. She informed her husband that General Wind Boreas was advancing rapidly from the north­ east and in his advance was throwing hail and shot in the enclosure in a frightful manner. vShe said that the flag had been whipped and battered until it represented an Irish woman's dish rag; the garden fence had been blown away and the cattle and pigs had nearly destroyed her garden and had then wandered off into the forest; and at the present moment a large buck deer was quietly helping himself to that portion of the garden that the cows had been generous enough to leave, and that it was her opinion that tne circumstances required quick and immediate action or a complete evacuation of the fort. The general acted promptly. Sev­ eral were detailed to round up the cattle; other*; to fix the fence. The writer expected to be'sent to “shoo” the dear out of the garden, but was disappointed in that pleasure by it falling to M. D. Caven; well known in Nashville and vicinity and the only Barry county man the writer has met since leaving Nashville. But a much higher honor was in'store for «me. Far away from the scenes of early youth; fur away from friends that are true and those that are false; 'mid the awful din and roar of Heaven’s heavy Kus, with icy balls pounding and sting against the ramparts, this humble writer hauled down and saved the American flag. At four o’clock the children were called in from where they were coast­ ing down hill to see tne "“bloon go up.’' It was a fine ascension, but op account of the falling snow could"only be seen for a few hundred fee’. It sailed far away over the great copper range and was afterward found by some miners, who believe to this day that it was Prof. Andree’s balloon and that he is even now wandering around among the many poles trying to locate the right one before report­ ing. This ended the day’s program and those who bad hay down hurried hrme to shovel the snow off the “doodles” and transfer the rack from the wagon to the bob sleighs, preparatory to hauling in tbe hay while tbe slipping lasted. All the above was written on the 5th day of July, 1907, but in concluding the last sentence, the writer fell asleep and has just awakened, and while the changes are not so great as were noticed by old Rip Van Winkle after his twenty years’ doze, yet they are marked. I find that it is now "golden hued October” and the grand old forest is fast putting on its rich autumnal hue. 'They tell me that owing to tbe dry summer—no rain falling from the 6th of May to tbe 18th of August—that crops are almost an entire failure. The settlers will not have hay enough to winter their stock. Potatoes bad a fine growth, but there were twelve heavy frosts during September, cutting them down before they had matured. There' were some water melons, however, but as they were all plugged, plucked and eaten while I was napping, can say nothing as to size or quality. A few moments ago I had the pleas­ ure of meeting Jehial Caven, well known in Nashville and Maple Grove. It seemed good after wandering for eight months among strangers and all sorts and conditions of people, to grasp the hand of a Maple Grove man. Hi al had just arrived in this country from Montana. But I must draw this letter to a close. I will mail this letter at a little town called Ballentine on tbe northern shore of Lake AgogebiC, in the extreme northwestern portion of the upper peninsula, and start on a long journey of thirty miles thru a vast wilderness and over the great northern copper range, trusting in Gcd and my compass to carry me thru to where Lake Superior’s waves Kund and beat against its rock und southern shore.

Oct 14.—The New York local if the Commercial Telegraphers* union atrw meeting Sunday voted unanimously to continue the strike against the Western Union and Postal Teletjraph companies. The voto was taken upon the sug­ gestion of President Small who, in messages to-subordinate officers Sat­ urday pointed out the inability of the general assembly to further finance the strike, and recommended that locals in the various cities vote upon the advisability of the men returning to work. Hisses for Their President. Small tried .to explain his position, but was frequently interrupted by hisses. When he suddenly left the hall in tbe midst of the gpeechmaking. cries of "Resign” followed him. Baturday night Small issued a statement in which he said he was willing to continue the strike if the men in­ sisted. When the meeting opened, Presi­ dent Small was given the floor and said: •"! am not here to make an argument for or against continuing the strike, but merely to explain why I called for a vote of the locals on the proposition. Saturday Commissioner Neill Informed me that President Clowry had told iAm that further ne­ gotiations were futile. 1 believe what they say. Our funds are quite ex­ hausted.” . Percy Thomas Scores Small. Percy Thomas, former national deputy, followed Small, saying that the latter had said when the strike began that he could raise 12,000,000 to support it. Small, he said, had asked him 30 days ago to send out the word "no funds," but the speaker refused. He continued: • "President Small has utterly neg­ lected to properly approach the sub­ ject of raising money and now be comes before you and tells you that we have no more money. This strike cannot be lost if we have a leader, a national president with any ability." There were cheers for Thomas, and as Small rose to reply, shouts .of "Re­ sign" greeted him. •*I have no Intention of resigning,” he said, when he could be heard. "To resign is the last thing that I will do, and I want to tell you that personal attacks- on me won’t get you bread and butter. "As for assessments of other labor organizations, I want to tell you what they amount to. The Order of Rail­ road Telegraphers, with a member­ ship of 40,000, was assessed first two dollars, then one dollar, and has turned in about 132,000. From the 27,­ 000 locals of the American Federation of Labor we have received about $25.­ 000. I have come t\ere to state facts and to tell you of yoqr position. Do what you will." . Keep It Up* Says Russell. As Small sat down Daniel Russell, chairman of the-local board of strat­ egy. sprang to bis feet. "Up to last night," he said, "this was Small’s strike, an^l up to last night he did everything he could to lose IL To-day it is your strike. Keep It up and win. He alone brought on the strike, and now he Is trying to re­ pudiate it.” Other speakers followed in a sim­ ilar vein, after which the resolutions declaring that the strike be continued and calling upon the national execu­ tive committee to remit at once $3,000, the New York local's share in the gen­ eral treasury, and requesting the appropriation of the Insurance fund for strike purposes, were adopted. Dispatches Sunday night said that the local unions in Baltimore. Kan­ sas City, Denver, Balt Lake City, San Francisco and other cities had voted to continue the strike. 8IMPKIN8 BEEN IN 8POKANE. < CHOICE I CUTS <" 1 । < . ► 4 Of meat are to be fouud lc our jf ice box—the kind, quality aud 1 in the condition desired by ep4 loured. j Tender meats daily, and no I other kind is permitted to be 4 sold over our counter or (enter j our market.

Oct. 14.—The whole countryside turned out Sunday In ex­ pectation of seeing* the president take his departure from Stamboul tor the j south, but he decided to remain at I Bear lake Instead. There was general expression of satisfaction over his reconsideration .of his determination to move to Ten­ sas parish, for now that the change is not to be made, Stamboul confesses candidly that, she would have been much chagrined to have her dis­ tinguished visitor go away with an empty bag before the time orlgally fixed.

It is stated that a number of fresh trails were dis­ covered Saturday and that on one oc­ casion the party came upon a good sized bear, but that on account of the absence of dogs he made his escape. The hope Is very strong that when the hunt Is resumed Monday either this animal or another member of his fam­ ily will soon be run to earth.

A hiklge and a clump of trees, together with two buildings, partly obscure the j crossing until within a short distance of its approach, and- it Is probable Mr. Emery did not know a train was due, for he drove the machine directly on the track In front of the express. The automobile was broken into bits and the members of the party were hurled out of the machine. Mr., Reese and Mrs. Emery were killed in­ stantly. Mrs. Reese’s neck was broken and she died on the train while being brought into the city.

One Workman Killed and Many In­ jured at Stony Ford, N ,Y. New Yc~k, OcL 15.—Hampton G. Westcott, v ce president of the Stand­ ard Oil Company of Kentucky, testi­ fied Monday, in the hearing of the federal suit r-^’nat the oil combine, that In sevc a’ of the southern states the Standar! till found It e: mdient to sell much 'of its product* through companies which the public believed to bo Independent. The practice cf selling through so-called ind-t •'ndent companies, which were owned b? the combine, was discontinued twi years ago, according to Mr. .Westcott. Mr. Kellogg, counsel for the govern­ ment, drew from the witness that 'the Standard OH Company of Ken­ tucky, which acts as selling age-t of oil In Kentucky, Georgia. Mississippi, Louisiana. Tennessee and Alabama. had purchased numerous .small indo pendent selling companies. and through many of them sold oil to the consumer. Some of the plants of these independents were dismantled and the business taken over by the Standard. Keep Track of Competitors. Mr. Westcott threw a side light on a business department of the Standard concerning which the federal counsel has been seeking Information since* the beginning of the inquiry. He testi­ fied that each month the main office of the Standard Oil Company of Ken­ tucky. at Covington, sent to him not only the reports of the business opera­ tions of the Standard, but statements concerning freight shipments and sale of oil by all competitors. These statements, according to- Mr. WestcotL gave the name of the consignor, the consignee, the amount of oil shipped and any Information that might be available. Information All on File. Mr. Westcott said that after exam­ ining these statements he filed them with the statistical department in the Standard's office In the city. This statistical department. Mr. Westcott said, was In charge of W. E. Bemis, who kept compilations and records of the business of both the Standard and its competitors. » H. M. Tilford, president of the Standard Oil Company of California, resumed the witness stand after Mr. Westcott’s examination had conclud­ ed. He told of the operations of the Pacific Coast Oil company previous to Rs purchase by the Standard 011 company of California In 1900. Mystery in Big Loans. New York. OcL 11'—Loans of over $20,000,000, which the books of the Southern Pipe Line company show were made to P. S. Trainor between 1899 and 1905. became more puzzling of solution to Frank B‘. Kellogg, con­ ducting the federal suit against the Standard Oil company, Thursday, when Mr. Trainor, taking the witness stand in tho oil suit, testified that the money had neveh been paid to him and that he had never beard of the account. The Southern's books show that un­ signed vouchers were received for these loans, and that the money was never handed back to the company. Mr. Trainor said that he was formerly crude oil purchasing agent for the Stanard Oil company of New York, and, as such, purchased all the oil ‘and sold it to the refineries. He said he acted In a similar capacity now tor the Standard Oil company of New Jersey. Knows Nothing of Loans. Mr. Kellogg called Mr. Trainor’s at­ tention to the various loans, amount­ ing to over $20,000,000, which were .made by the Southern Pipe Line com­ pany and charged to ”P. S. Trainor.” and asked him to tell all he knew con­ cerning the loans. ”1 do not know anything about these Ioans," answered Mr. Trainor. "I had an oil account with the Southern com­ pany, but no money accounL I never gave them any vouchers and never heard anything about the Ioans.” Mr. Trainor said that he fixed the price paid for crude oil after consult­ ing with John D. Archbold, vice presi­ dent of the Standard. These consulta­ tions were held dally, Mr. Trainor said, and after they were over he made public the market price of crude oil. Middletown. N.

Lansing.—Senator Prank Edlnborough. of Bay, and Representative Wil­ liam E. Ivory, of Lapeer, Introduced in the two houses a bill for the reg­ istration of men appearing before the legislature on legislative business. The house will act first The bill re­ quires all persons appearing before legislative committees on any bills except municipal charters and like local measures to. be registered In the secretary- of state's office. A man may not be employed for appearing with a remuneration contingent on tbe passage or defeat of a bill. The .registered representative cannot ap­ pear on the floor of either house ex­ cept by resolution. He may appear, when Invited, before a committee. He must not, and other men must not, ap­ proach members of the house other­ wise. - Registered representatives must not send printed statements to members unless they deposit 25 copies with the secretary of state. No state official or employe may lobby for any­ thing Involving pecuniary advantage to himself. Violation of this law is made a felony, punishable by $1,000 fine or one year in prison. “Gov. Dav­ idson, cf Wisconsin, told me this bill kept all the professional lobbyists away from the capital," said Gov. Warner. “The attorneys and other representatives came as before, and argued their ckseo, but* the old pro­ fessional employed lobbyist absolute­ ly disappeared. I think this bill will end the lobby evil In Lansing." Hurrying Legislature Along.

The shoot­ ing took plate on the farm of their uncle, Harlow Baker, about a mile from the Fisher farm, and the boy was afraid to tell of his deed.

The senate defeated the primary bill, the final result being 16 to 16. The vote was then reconsidered in or­ der to permit of other primary bills being introduced. Senator Allen was the first to take advantage of this opening and he Introduced a bill which retains the 40 per cent, provisions, provides for the nomination of gov­ ernor and lieutenant governor on the first Monday in April and cuts out the selection of delegates to the national convention. This is practically the bill that was introduced last session. Michigan District for Cannon.

H* stood watching while the officer picked hl« steps across, but made no responsive motion when the other waved his band from the oppo­ site shore, his sallow face ■ looking grim and unpleasant. The young officer - marched down the road, his mind busied with the peculiar happenings of- the morning, and' that prospect for early active service hinted at In the brief utter­ ances of the old scout. Brant was a thorough soldier, born into the service and deeply enamored of its dangers; yet beyond this he remained a man, a young man. swayed by those emotions which when at full tide sweep aside all else appertaining to life. His bad been a lonely life since leaving West Point and joining.his regiment—a life passed largely among rough men and upon the desolate plains. For months at a time he bad known nothing of refinement, nor en­ joyed social Intercourse with the op­ posite sex. TeL beneath bls mask of Impassibility, the heart continued to beat with fierce desire, biding the time when it should enjoy its own sweet way. Perhaps that hour had already dawned; certainly something new, something Inspiring, had now come to awaken an interest unfelt before, and leave him Idly dreaming of shadowed eyes and flushed, rounded cheeks. He was 1* this mood when he over­ took the Rev. Howard Wynkoop and marked the thoughtful look upon his pale face.' “I called at your camp," explained Wynkoop, after the first • words of greeting had been exchanged, "as soon as I learned you were here in com­ mand, but only to discover your ab­ sence. The sergeant, however, was very courteous, and assured me there would be no difficulty in arranging a religious service tor the men, unless sudden orders should arrive. No doubt I may rely on your coopera­ tion.” “Most certainly," was the cordial response, "and I shall also permit those desiring to attend your regular Sunday services so long as we are sta­ tioned here. How is your work proeperlngT’ • •There is much to encourage me, but spiritual progress Is slow, and. there are times when my faith falters and I feel unworthy of the service in which I am engaged.” “A mining camp Is so Intensely ma­ terial seven days of the week that It must present a difficult field for the awakening of any religious senti­ ment," confessed Brant sympathetical­ ly. "I have often wondered how. you consented to bury your talents in such a place." The other smiled, but with a trace of sadness In his eyes. "I firmly be­ lieve that every minister should de­ vote a portion of his life to the doing of such a work as this. It is both a religious and a patriotic duty, and there Is a rare joy connected with IL” “Yet It was surely not joy I saw pic­ tured within your face when we met; you were certainly troubled over some problem.” Wynkoop glanced up quickly, ta slight flush rising In his pale cheeks. "Perplexing questions which must be decided off-hand are constantly aris­ ing. And just now I scarcely know what action to take regarding certain applications for church membership.” Brant laughed. “I hardly consider myself a competent adviser >n matters of church policy,” he admitted, “yet I have always been informed that all so desiring are to be made welcome in religious fellowship." "Theoretically, yes.” And the min­ ister stopped still in the road, facing his companion.

I am anxious to put nothing in the way of any hon­ estly seeking soul, yet I confess that in these cases 1 hesitate." “But your elders? Do not they share the responsibility of passing upon such applications?" The flush on Mr. Wynkoop's cheeks deepened, And his eyes fell. "Ordi­ narily, yes; but in this case I fear they may prove unduly Larsh. I—I feel—that these applications came through the special Intercession of a certain young lady, and I am anxious not to hurt her feelings in any way, or *to discourage her enthusiasm.” "Oh, I see! Would you mind telling me the names of the two gentlemen?” "Mr. John Moffat and Mr. William McNeil. Unfortunately, I know neither । personally.” "And the young lady?" “A Miss Phoebe Spencer; she has but lately arrived from the east to take charge of our new school—a most Interesting and charming young wom­ an, and she is proving of great assist­ ance to me In church work.” The lieutenant cleared his throat and emitted a sigh of suddenly awak­ ened memory. "I fear I can offer you no advice, for if, as I begin to suspect, —though she sought most bravely to avoid the Issue and dispatch me upon a false trail,--she prove to be that same fascinating young person I met this morning, my entire sympathies are with the gentlemen concerned. I might even be strongly tempted to do likewise at her solicitation.” "You? Why, you arrived only this morning, and do you mean to say you have met already F T at least suspect as much, for there can scarcely exist two In this town who will fill the description.

Teli me, is not this a fairly drawn portrait of your Miss Spencer?" The minister gripped his hands ner­ vously- together. "Your description Is not unjust; indeed, it Is quite accurate from a jnere outer point of view, yet beneath her vivacious manner I have found her thoughtful, and possessed of deep spiritual yearnings. In the east she was a communicant ot the Episco­ pal church." Brant did not answer him at once. He was studying the minister's down­ cast face; but when the latter finally turned to depart, he Inquired, "Do you expect to attend the reception to-mor­ row evening?" Wynkoop stammered slightly. *1—I could hardly refuse under the circum­ stances; the committee sent me an especially urgent Invitation, and I un­ derstand there is to be no dancing un­ til late. One cannot be too straightlaced out here." "Ob, never mind apologizing. I see no reason why you need hesitate to at­ tend. I merely wondered If you could procure me on invitation." "Did she tell you about it?” "Well, she delicately hinted at IL and, you know, things are pretty slow here in ji social way. She merely Bug­ gesled that I might possibly meet her again there." ’ “Of course; It is given In her honor." “So I understood, although she sought to deceive me into the belief that she was not the lady.

Every parent, guardian or other person in the state of Michigan having control and charge of any child between the ages of 7 and 16 years shall send such child to the public schools during the entire school year, and such attendance shall be continuous and consecutive for the school year fixed by tbe dis­ trict. 2nd. In al! graded districts the secretary of education shall, at the commencement of school, furnish a copy of the last census to the super­ intendent of schools in such district, together with the name and address of the truant officer under whose juris­ diction they act, and it shall be the duty of said superintendent at the opening of school to compare said census list with the enrollment of the school and from time to time, as it may be necessary, report to the proper truant officer the names of any parents or guardians whose children of the ages hereinbefore mentioned are not in regular attendance at the public schools. 3rd. It shall be the duty of the truant officer of the district, whenever notified by the teacher, superinten­ dent or other person or persons, of violation of this act, to investigate all such cases of truancy -or non-at­ tendance at school. In case any parent or other person in parental relation shall fail to com­ ply with the provisions of this act, he shall be deemed guilty of a misde­ meanor and shall, on conviction thereof, be fined not less than five dollars nor more than fifty dollars or imprisonment in the county or city jail for not less than two or more than ninety days, or both such fine and im­ prisonment in the discretion of the court. # In case any parent or other person in parental relation shall fail to send the child or children under his or her control to the public school the truant officer, upon having notice from the proper authority of such fact, shall Immediately and within twenty-four hours thereafter give formal written notice, in person or bv registered mail, to the parent or other person in parental relation, that the child or children under his or her control shall present himself or themselves at the public school on the dav follow­ ing the receipt of such notice. Said notice shall inform, the pabent or other person in parental relation of the date that attendance must begin and that such attendance at school must be continuous during the remainder ot the school year as taught in the dis­ trict. It shall be the duty of the truant officer, after having given the formal notice hereinbefore described, to de­ termine whether the parent or other person in parental relation has oomJilted with the notice, and in case of allure to so comply, he shall im­ mediate! v and within three days after having the knowledge, make a com­ plaint against said parent or other person in parental relation, before a justice of the peace in the village or township for such refusal or neglect to send such child or children to school, and said justice of the peace shall issue a warrant upon said com­ plaint and shall proceed to hear and determine the same in the »»me man­ ner as provided by statute for other cases under his jurisdiction. 6th. It shall be the duty of all school officers, superintendents teachers and other persons to render such assistance and furnish such , in­ formation as they may have at tbeir command to aid such truant officer in the performance of his official duty. We desire to express our heartfelt thanks to the kind friends and neigh­ bors who gave aid and sympathy during tbe Illness, death and burial of our mother. Miss Edith Wickham, ■ Mrs. Harry Munton.

St. Louis, JDcL 22.—Drifting along in a direction just west of north when lost to view in the base of falling night, and with a freshenI ng southeast breeze behind them. nine, big balloons are competing for the honors attached to the winning of the second interna­ tional aeronautic cup race. A brilliant moon was shining thFoughout the mid­ dle west and conditions seemed ideal foi a record-breaking flighL A .stiffer wind would have been more welcome to the occupants of the wicker cars, which hung like tiny specks beneath the great globular gasfljled bags, bat the flve-mile breeze of the lower air strata gave promise of splendid, racing currents.in the high­ er altitudes. The Germans, acting on this theory, reached fer their courses right from the start. The French and English aeronauts were more conservative and selected.a mid­ dle depth, while the Americans raced away at aa altitude which seemed to take them just clear of trees and bouse tops. . Nearly Strike Grandstand. So low, in fact, did two of tbe American teams balance their cars that there was grave danger of the baskets raking a crowded grandstand, and Intense excitement prevailed. The SL Louis, one of the largest balloons In the race, came so close to the stand that it was seized by a squad of sol­ diers, swept back to a'safer starting point, and sent away two minutes after the official word to go was.given. In the big race there are three bal­ loons representing America, three representing Germany, two for France and one for England. The basket of each balloon contains two occupants, the pilot and bls aid. With a prospect of the breeze hold­ ing to the southeast and south, many predictions were made Monday night that the final landing place of the win­ ning balloon would be tn Minnesota or one of the Dakotas. Others held the opinion that the upper currents would send the air craft further to the east, to find a place of descent east of Lake Michigan. The record of the race, es­ tablished last year by LleuL Lahm, of the United States, in a flight from Paris to Fyling Dales In the north of England, Is 402 miles, but each aeronaut in the present contest confi­ dently expected to exceed that dis­ tance. The start of the race was spectacu­ lar in the extreme and was witnessed by a throng gathered in Forest park variously estimated at from 60,000 to 150,000 persons. Pommorn First to Start. The German balloon, Pommern, a bright chrome yellow globe, was the first.away, the start being made just 35 seconds after tbe scheduled hour of four o'clock. The other Contestants followed at intervals -of five minutes. As each was sent away the great crowd broke Into cheers. The Ameri­ can teams came In for the greatest share of applause, and when the St. Louis, entered by the Aern club of St. Louis, took flight, the snouts and cheers were louder than all that had gone before. A military band stationed In the grandstand played the national an­ thems of the nations represented as the various foreign balloons ascended. Have you tried Dr. W.

Lansing.—A bjll placing telephone and telegraph companies under the ad valorem system of taxation was made the subject of a sharp debate In the house Wednesday afternoon and the supporters of the measure lacked but five votes of the necessary two-thlrds to secure a suspension of the rules, which would have insured its passage. Wednesday morning the house judiciary committee decided by a vote of *4 to 3, to indefinitely post­ pone further consideration of the anti­ lobbying bill on the ground that the bill was not well drafted, that there was no need of it at this time and that It could be passed by tbe next legislature If deemed advisable.- A little* later the committee on general taxation voted, 4 to 3, to postpone fur­ ther consideration of the telephone and telegraph bill. Hearing of this action, the attorney general hastily found a copy of a bill introduced last session taxing car. loaning companies and fast freight lines and fixed up a new bill to amend tbe title of the old one so as to Include telephone and telegraph companies. It was Intro­ duced Representative Jerome, who Immediately moved a suspension ot tbe rules In order to send the bill tc the committee of the whole. This served to open up the fireworks and an hour was spent In debating the merits of the proposition. Represen­ tatives Galbraith, Campbell and Simp­ son contended that the operations of the bill would be unfair to the small telephone companies throughout the state and also work to the disadvan­ tage of the Postal Telegraph company, as against the Western Union. Rep­ resentatives Jerome, Dust. Miller and Walters talked In favor of the bill, ar­ guing that a principle was Involved and that responsibility of taxing the various companies rested with the state tax commission and not with the legislature. As 90 ‘ members had an­ swered roll call It required 60 to sus­ pend the rules, the motion being de­ feated, 55 to 33.

He was asking that the Injunction Imposed by this court against the stale dairy and food department of the state restrain­ ing it from interfering with the busi­ ness of Armour A. Co. In Michigan be removed. “We object,” said McGill, “to Chicago firms shipping Chicago water in here and selling It as sau­ sage. That is what they are doing, aud we are prepared to prove it. Our chemists have been at work on this matter for. some time and . I- don't think that there are very many things about sausage which they cannot In­ form us about They don't mention water in their complaint They sim­ ply state that they are using cereals, nice, clean cereals, but they forget to admit that they are using the cereals for a sponge which holds up aa high as 50 per cent water In the sausage.** The Chicago corporation replied, alleging that It is well within the law and-asking that the injunction be made permanent.

She had a sweet and gentle disposition and always looked on the tyright side of life. She was a favorite among her schoolmates and was loved by all w'ho knew her. She will not only be missed by her immediate relatives but by her young.aasociates'as well. The funeral was held from the Evangelical church last Thursday forenoon; the sermon being preached by Rev.

Proa- One of Die factors contributing to the prosperity of the modern agricul­ tural community Is a system of good public -roads. This subject has been discussed Bo frequently tn the farm, dally and magazine press, that very few are not conversant with its more important aspects. Every one must concede that the subject is important and its benefits to the agricultural and commercial worlds are self evident. Impetus is being given to the build­ ing of rural highways, by the activi­ ties of the office ot labile roads con­ nected with the United States de­ partment of agriculture. Systematic work is being carried forward under the direction of this bureau and the Influence of these federal endeavoris has reached out into a number of the ‘states. it was quite opportune that the gov­ ernment undertook to foster the building of good roadways. Now, through the education received' from national road experts and from the crying necessity for better means for wagon transportation of farm products to market a general demand for good permanent country highways has gone out from the agricultural classes. America has been exceedingly backward in developing a system of good public roads, but the time is at hand when farmers will not be com­ pelled to haul their grain and produce over ways covered with mire or filled with dangerous ruts. . The, general consensus of opinion regarding public roads, declares the Indiana Farmer, is that there should be a good, strong executive man at the head of a forcefpl commission dealing with the question. Twenty-one states in the union have such a commission with an active and competent - civil engineer or some other skillful, practical man at its head. It will be noticed that these states are improving their highways and are making them permanent and durable. Prominent among the states thus applying business methods and scientific principles to road building are New York, Pennsylvania, Illinois and Ohio. The 17 other states are fol­ lowing suit very closely and good re­ sults are noticeable. Of course It will require many years before every sec­ tion in these states is Immediately benefited, but it suffices that the work is well begun. WAS 8OON TO BE CHANGED.

The lieutenant smiled. *3fost glad­ ly; yet Just now. I confess, the music Invites me, and I am sufficiently bold “Miss Bpsncer, May I Inquire If You Possess Such a Phenomenon as a 'Star* Pupil?” toward the musicians’ stand, where there appeared to be a few unoccu­ pied chairs. The scene was one of color and ac­ tion. He watched the speeding fig­ ures, striving to distinguish the par­ ticular one whose charms had lured him thither. But among them all he was unable to distinguish the wood­ nymph whose girlish frankness and grace had left so deep an impression <m his memory. Yet surely she must be present, for, to his understanding, this whole gay festival was in her honor. Directly across the room he caught sight of Rev. Mr. Wynkoop conversing with a lady of somewhat rounded charms, and picked his way tn their direction. The missionary, who,lntroth, had Always the to request your company upon the floor.” Miss Spencer sighed . regretfully. . "Why, really, LleuL Brant, X scarcely see how I possibly can. I have al­ ready refused so many this evening, and now I almost believe I must be under direct obligation to some one of those gentlemen. SUB,” hesitating­ ly. "your being a total stranger here must be taken into consideration. Mr. Moffat. Mr. McNeil, Mr. Mason, surely you will grant me release this once?” There was no verbal response to the appeal, only an uneasy movement; but her period of waiting was extremely brief. “Oh, I knew you would; you have all been so kind and considerate.” She arose, resting her daintily gloved hand upon Brant's blue sleeve, her pleased eyes smiling up confidingly into his. Then with a charming smile, “Oh, Mr. Wynkoop. I have decided to claim your escort to supper. You do wealth of auburn hair. We met quite by accident, and the sola clew I now possess to her identity Is a claim she advanced to being your ‘star’ pupH." Miss Spencer sighed somewhat re­ gretfully, and her eyea fell. "I fear it must have been Naida, from your description. But she is scarcely more than a child. Surely, lieutenant. It cannot be possible that you have be­ come interested tn her?” He smiled pleasantly. "At least 18, is she not? I was somewhat impressed with her' evident originality and hoped to renew our slight acquaintanceship here in more formal manner. She is your 'ster* pupil, then?" . "Why, she Is not really tn my school at all. but I outline the studies she pursues at home, and lend her such books as I consider best adapted for her reading. She Is such a strange girl!” "Indeed?. She appeared to me to be extremely unconventional, with a de­ cided tendency for mischief. Is that your meaning?" "Partially. She manages to do everything in a different way from other people. Her mind seems pecu­ liarly independent, and she is so un­ reservedly western in her ways and language. But I was referring rather to her taste In books—she devours everything." ■ "You mean as a student?” "Well, yes, I suppose so; at least she appears to possess the faculty of absorbing every bit of information, like a sponge. Sometimes she actual­ ly startles me with her odd questions. I really believe Mr. Wynkoop seeks to avoid meeting her, she has shocked him so frequently In religious mat­ ters." . "Does she make light of his faith?" “Oh. no, not that exactly, at least It is not her intention. But she wants to know everything—why we believe .this and why we believe that, doc­ trines which no one else ever dreams of questioning, and he cannot seem to make them clear to her mind. Some of her questions are so Irreverent as to be positively shocking to a spirit-, ually minded person." They lapsed Into silence, swinging easily to the guidance of the music.. His face was grave and thoughtful. This picture Just drawn of the per­ verse Naida had not greatly lowered her In his estimation, although he felt Instinctively that Miss Spencer was not altogether pleased with his evi­ dent Interest In another. "it Is very interesting to know that you two met In so unconventional a way," she ventured, softly, "and so sly of her not even to mention it to me. We-are room-mates, you know, and consequently' quite Intimate, al­ though she possesses many peculiar I characteristics which I cannot In the I least approve. 1 shall certainly do my | be8t t0 gUfde her aright. Would you mind giving me some details of your meeting?” For a moment he hesitated, feeling that If the girl had not seen fit to con­ fide her adventure to this particular friend, it was hardly his place tw do so. Then, remembering that he had already said enough to arouse curi­ osity, which might easily be developed into suspicion,’ hp determined his course. In a few words the brief story was frankly told, and apparently proved quite amusing to Miss Spepcer. "Oh, that was Naida, beyond a doubt" she exclaimed, with a ’augh of satisfaction. “It Is all so characteris­ tic of her. I only wonder bow she chanced to guess your name; but real­ ly the girl appears to possess some peculiar gift in thus discerning facts bidden from others. The music coming to a pause, they slowly traversed the room. presume, then, she Is noi pres­ ent?" he raid, quietly. Miss Spencer glanced into his face, the grave tone making her apprehen­ sive that she might have gone too far. "She was here earlier In the even­ ing, but now that you remind me of IL 1 do not recall having noticed her of late. But. really, lieutenant, it. Is no part of my duty to chaperon the young girl. Mrs. Herndon could probably in­ form you of her present v. hereabouts.” Mias Spencer was conscious of the sting of failure, and her face flushed with vexation. “It is extremely close in here, don’t you think?' she com­ plained. "And I was so careless as to mislay my fan. I feel almost suffo­ cated.” "Did you leave It at home?” he ques­ tioned. "Possibly I might discover a substitute somewhere In the room." “Oh, no; I would never think of troubling you to such an extent. No doubt this feeling of lassitude will pass away shortly. It v*xs very fool­ ish of me, but I left the fan with my Wynkoop bowed, his face like a wraps at the hotel. It can be recov­ poppyered when we go across -to supper."

"To achieve what you were dnce kind enough to suggest as possible—the formality of an. introduction. It would seem, however, that fate makes our meetings informal.” "That Is your fault, not mine." "I gladly assume all responsibility, if you will only waive the formality and accept my friendship.” • Her face seemed to lighten, while her lips twitched as if suppressing a smile. "You are very forgetful. Did I not tell you- that ,we Presbyterians are; never guilty of such Indiscretions?” “I believe you did, but 1 doubt your complete surrender to the creed.” "Doubt! Only our second time of meeting and you already venture to doubt! This can scarcely be construed Into a compliment, I fear.” "Yet to my mind it may prove the very highest type of compliment.” he returned, reassured by her manner. "For a certain degree of Independence in both thought and action Is highly commendable. Indeed, I am going to be bold enough to add that It was these very attributes that awakened my interest in you.” “Oh, indeed; you cause me to blush already. My frankness, I fear, blds fair to cost me all my friends, and I may even go beyond your pardon.

Zixi: as hg Is. called, escaped while his keeper's attention was mo­ mentarily’attracted elsewhere, and made straight for the Metropolitan railway station at the Boulevard Barbes. Entering the booking office he nearly -frightened the woman book­ ing clerk out of her wits. He seised bundles of tickets, and amueed him­ self by flinging them l.tfto the air and watching- their descent tn a shower. When he had thus made an end of several hundred* of packages he ran into the station, creating a panic among the waiting passengers. They fled acroes the line and down the stairs Into the street, and two pollcemen and six porters were summoned to try and capture Zlxl. As soon a* 21x1 saw them coming he bolted down the line, and was so anxious to es­ cape his pursuers that he did not no­ tice an approaching train. The driv­ er pulled up in time to avoid killing the aeimal, and Zixi capered off on another .line, and stopped a second train in the same way. After much chasing aod dodging Zixi was even­ tually caught In a sack, put into a .strait waistcoat, and taken to the ' police station, where La Goulue pea red and bailed him out early the next morning. WHY HE DID NOT LAUGH. Humorist’s Sense of Modesty Kept Him Silent. A certain well-known humorist re­ cently attended a banquet at which he was seated beside a man who seemed to have almost a mania for story-tell­ ing. He began with the oysters andhad at least one story for each course clear down to the Roquefort. The hu­ morist listened in patience, but did not smile or make any comment Finally the story-teller noticed the fact that he was not eliciting any expressions of mirth, and, being one who was not at all afflicted with diffidence, he asked: "Say, old man, what's the matter with my stories, anyhow’ You haven't cracked a smile over any of them." v .."If 1 haven t seemed to appreciate Tyour stories you will have to blame my modesty." “Your modesty" There’s nothing about any of the stories I’ve told that ought to Interfere with any­ body's modesty. At least I supposed they were clean. If there’s a double meaning in any of them, for heaven’s sake tell me.

It has been estimated that the com­ bustion of coal In London discharges at feast half a million tons of sulphur­ ic acid Into the air each year, and the effect upon certain building stones is disastrous. The acid washed down by rains attacks the lime of marbles, limestones and calcareous sandstones, forming gypsum and causing the sur­ face to,swell and crumble. A treat­ ment for the decaying stonework is the application of solution of baryta, which forms an insoluble sulphate with the gypsum and liberates lime, which the carbnoic acid of the all converts into the original binding cement of the stone. Referring to an experience at the CbapteY house at Westminster, Prof. A. H. Church says that carving so soft as to be brought away by the finger was made sound and harder than the newly quarried stone. Justice fof Wives.

Wo read in an ancient chronicle that when a letter not altogether courteous was sent to the emperor of Japan by the emperor of China, the mikado opened his answer thus: “The emperor of the land where the sun rises addresses himself to the em­ peror ot the land where the sun seta." On another occasion, when the Chi­ nese emperor had the audacity to de­ mand the submission of Japan, that spirited country chopped off the heads of the luckless ambassadors! .Mount McKinley.

I had onee a good opportunity of Judging of tbe amazing toughness and tenacity of tbe grizzly bear. I was one of tbe party that accompanied Col. William Milner Roberts' on bls preliminary survey of the route of the Northern Pacilc railway ill 1869.' One day eight of us were riding through the thick chaparral and sage­ brush. about eight miles south of what Is now Butte City. We came to a small gully, or dry stream bed, in which, there were a number of mud holes, or wallow holes. There was a sloping Sank of. each side of the gully, which -was probably ten feet wide, and on the right bank, opposite one of tbe wallows, we discovered the Impression □f a grizzly's forepaw. ■» From the spread of the claw marks in the soft earth the bear's foot must have been 14 inches or more in length, and half that in'width. The trail led us away from tho gully, up a high and quite steep hill. We"had gone up the hill probably not more than half-a mile when the ■dog we had with us dashed off into the chaparral, barking and growling Jlercely. The bronchos pranced and bolted, and could scarcely be kept from turning back down the hill. A few rods further on, where there was something of an opening in tho brush, we came in t^ght of the. griz­ zly. Ho had evidently beeh lying down when {he dog disturbed him. and had not considered the presence ot the, in­ truder of sufficient consequence to cause him to rise-to more than z half­ sitting posture. The grizzly was a monstrous speci­ men of his kind,-as his footprint had indicated. He was more than a hun­ dred feet away from us. and when he heard the frightened prancing of our bronchos tn the brush and their snorts of displeasure the old fellow raised up on his haunches and glared at us In a way that made every man of us me­ chanically reach for his rifle. It seemed to me as If that, grizzly stood ten feet high. We did not care to dally with him long.'so el^ht Sharp's rifles were simultaneously aimed at him, and eight heavy balls went crashing Into various parts J)f his enormous body. ■We had expected to see the bear tum­ ble to the ground immediately after such a vollqy. But he didn't tumble, he staggered under the force of the Shower of lead, but Remained In his upright position. A stream of blood spurted from his breast and quickly crimsoned his shaggy front. With n tremendous snort of pain the brute rushed toward us. The b’ronchos turned and dashed at full si>eed, down the bill, and we no longer tried to restrain them. Tho race down that hillside was a fear­ ful one. Ordinarily on smooth ground we could have run away from the bear without difficulty, but the ground we Had to cover was a mass of bowlders, some of them of immense size, and thick with treacherous and dangerous "buck Jumps" or hollows, which were a constant menace to tho footing of our horses. The grizzly, however, seemed to be at home on this rough area, and it had to be an unusually large bowlder that turned him from his course. Al­ though he carried eight heavy rifle balls in • his body, he mounted and clambered over the rocks with ap­ parent ease, and frequently, after we had twisted and turned through some contracted pass to get around a rock, we would come almost face to face with tbe ugly monster as he scaled the bowlder and made ft a short'cut to head us off. The consequence was that he pressed in so closely that if auy bron­ cho bad stumbled, or met with a sec­ ond's undue delay in finding a- way round a bowlder or over a confront­ ing buck jump, tbat broncho's rider would have been scattered to the four winds of heaven in .less time than It takes to speak of IL We reached the gully where we had first discovered the presence of the bear by his enormous footprint and dashed across IL As we raised the bank out of thte gully some of us cast a look behind and saw that the grizzly had stopped on the firs’ bank, and was licking his wounds, the pain of which had probably by tbat time become unbearable. We stopped our horses and fired another round of eight balls into the bear. He forgot his old wounds at once, paid no attention to his new ones, and took up the chase with as much apparent vigor as he had first started with. We concluded that any grizzly that could take as. much inter­ est as that, in a fight, after kreceiving Into his system 16 of the biggest balls a Sharp's rifle will carry, was not an animal to interfere with any longer, and we sped away before him as fast as our willing bronchos would take The bear pressed us close for over half a mile further before he gave any indication that our 16 rifle balls had done him vital harm. Then he began to fall behind and totter and sway in the brush. He followed us in that staggering way for a long distance, and then fell In his tracks and never moved again. We went back and found 'the game old monster dead. Every one of those 16 halls had struck a vital part. Five of them had Imbedded In his brain alone: Col. Roberts said It was the most remarkable case of tenacity in a grizzly he had ever known. The bear had pursued us over a mile and he must have had his death wound == WOOED EV THEIN CATE.

College Man Tells of Trouble Ha Had with Students. **I can sympathize with that Staeler, who taught the Harvard col­ lege yell to 200 students of the Berlin university," said an old college man. "To train the students of one college In the yell of a rival Institution of learning Is no easy job. I once un­ dertook to- educate a band of young­ sters in th* different college yells, so in case they were ever required to" give a complimentary greeting to In­ structors from other colleges, they would be equal to the occasion. I never worked so hard in my life. Either the boys were physically un­ able to twist. their tongfies around strange war cries or loyahy to their own school held them back; anyway, it required a tremendous amount of hammering to bring them to the point where a visiting professor would recognize his own yell when he heard It That is why I sympathize with Dr. Stealer.

Few of the parents were criminals. Many of the children were abandoned. Last is given the history of a crim­ inal born child. This child was al­ ways unmanageable, and had many physical defects.

Evans. x ' Of course ihU is conditional upon congress giving its sanction to the proposal that will be made by the ex­ ecutive to establish this new rank in the navy. The idea is not a new one. In fact, the president in his Inst an-' nual message to congress, as well as the secretary of the navy In his an­ nual report, made a recommendation to that effect, but without securing the approval of congress. Now. how­ ever, conditions are believed to be more favorable than ever before for this project. Reasons for the Change. Rear Admiral Evans Is going to sail In command ot the most powerful fleet ’that ever gathered under the Ameri­ can flag. Not only that, he commands more battleship's of modern type than any other naval officer in the world, and the only officer whose blue pen­ nant floats ovc>r a more numerous fleet of all kinds of warships is - Lord Charles Beresford, and he Is of even greater rank than a vice admiral, be­ ing an admiral, like Dewey. On this cruise the American fleet is. to touch In many foreign ports and « to exchange courtesies with foreign fleets. In several places—in Brazil. In Chill, in Argentina—the American commander, supposing he retains his present title of rear admiral, would be outranked, for the navies of all of these countries contain officers of tbe grade of vice admiral, which would make the American commander's po­ sition humiliating. It would be pointed out in Rear Ad­ miral Evans' case that not only Is he by his remarkable service record en­ titled to this advancement, but any objections to the creation of this new grade that might be broached in con­ gress might be overcome by pointing to the fact that as Rear Admiral Evans retires next August, the office will be of short duration.

The boys had put in extra time getting reedy for the Inspection, and were much pleased to hear that CapL Barry had recom­ mended the new pieces. A month or two passed and the guns did not arrive and a report came from Washington that the wheels on the new guns were defective and nbt fit for service, and the battery must wait until new wheels were made. Consequently the battery had to turn out Memorial day and. the day President Roosevelt was here with the old guns. At Camp McGurrin, at Ludington, the battery's excellent appearance and knowledge of military tactics made a good im­ pression on the inspecting officers, and CapL Walsh, who accompanied the battery, made an excellent re­ port on the work and said the only thing lacking to make an efficient and effective batten* is the* new guns, and he strongly urged that they be.sent at once.

While all of the white settlers who traced with Indians in the vicinity of Willow at the beginning ot the last century have passed away and the reds have long since gone to the happy hunting grounds, there are a few landmarks which still recall- sto, rles and legends. Not the least inter­ esting of these is the old log hut, built 100 years ago on the banks of the Huron river two miles east of Willow. Its present owner is Gust Kamine. in the early days - it was known as “Katie Quaqua's camp.” and was at that time inhabited by the In­ dians holding a big reserve in this vi­ cinity. The house at present is not occupied, but until a few years ago the building’ hod been used by many different families. A reservation granted to the Wyandottes of the United States on September 20, 1818, was located In the southeast corner of Huron township, Wayne county, and Included sections 22, 24, 25. 28. 27. 34. 35 and 36 and that part of section 22 lying on the south side of the Huron river, and containing eight acres. The entire tract included 4.996 acres. By a treaty of March 17, 1842, this tract was ceded by the Wyandottes back to the government and they were re­ moved-to Kansas. "Katie Quaqua's camp" was a favorite camping ground of the red men when they came to this aection on their hunting and trap­ ping excursions. Katie Quaqua was the wife of James Clark, who lived near Amherstburg, Ont:, and with bls daughter. Mary McKee, was among the last of the more powerful tribe of Wyandottes who Inhabited this terri­ tory.

But, pshaw, I know well enough without asking— she told you how greatly she admired the romance of the west, and begged you to call upon her with a recital of your own exploits. Have I not guessed aright?” “Partially, at least; some such ex­ pressions were used." “Of course, they always are.

"It is far too common,” he admitted, touched, by her naive questioning. “What is known as fashionable social life has become an almost pitiful sham, and you can scarcely conceive' the relief it is to meet with one utter­ ly uncontaminated by its miserable de­ ceits, Its shallow make-believes. It Is no wonder, you shock the nerves of such people; the deed is easily.accom­ plished." "But I do not mean to.” And she looked at him gravely, striving to make him comprehend. "I try so hard to.be—be commonplace, and—and sat­ isfied. Only there Is so much that seems silly, useless, pitifully con­ temptible that I lose al! patience. Perhaps I need proper training in what Miss Spencer calls.refinement; but why should I pretend to like what I dbn't like, and t</ believe what I don't believe? Cannot one act a He as well as speak one? And Is it no longer right to search after the truth?” . ”1 have always felt it was our duty to discover the. truth wherever possi­ ble," he said, thoughtfully; "yet, I confess, the search ia not fashionable, nor the earnest seeker popular." A little trill of laughter flowed from between her parted lips, but the sound was not altogether merry. "Most certainly I am not They all scold me, and repeat with manifest horror the terrible things I say, being unconscious that they are evil. Why should I suspect thoughts that come to me naturally. I want to know, to understand. I grope about in the dark. It seems to me sometimes that this whole world is a mystery. I go to Mr. Wynkoop with my questions, and they only seem to shock him. Why should they? God must have put all these doubts and wonderlngs into my mind, and tnere must be an an­ swer for them somewhere. Mr. Wyn­ koop Is a good man, I truly respect him. I want to please him, and I ad­ mire his intellectual attainments; but how can he accept so much on faith and be content? I know I am a per­ fect heathen,—Miss Spencer says I am,—but do you think it is so awful for me to want to know these things?"

Is it wrong—unwomanly, I mean—for me to question spiritual things?' "I am unable to conceive why it should be. Surely woman ought to bo as deeply concerned in things spirit­ ual as man.” "How very strange It is that we should thus drift Into such an Intimate talk at our second meeting!” she ex­ claimed. "But It seems so easy, so natural, to converse frankly with some people—they appear to draw out ail that is best in one's heart Then there are others who seem to parch and wither up every germ of spiritual life.” "There are those in the world who truly belong together," he urged, dar­ ingly. “They belong to each other by some divine law.

"And you do not mean, even now, to make clear the mystery?" he asked. "Not—now." she answered, almost timidly. "It is nothing much, only I would rather not now.” The Sudden sound of voices and laughter in the street beneath brought them both to their feet. “Why, they are coming across to supper," she exclaimed, in surprise. "How long we have been here, and it has seemed scarcely a moment! I shall certainly be In for a scolding, Lieut. Brant: and I fear your only means of savli^ me from being promptly sent home in disgrace will be to escort me in to supper." “A delightful punishment!" He drew her "hand through his arm. and said; "And then you will pledge me the first dance following?” "Oh. you mustn't &sk me. Really. I have not been on the floor to-night; 1 am not in the mood." "Do you yield to moods?” "Why, of course 1 do. Is It not a woman's privilege? If -you know me long it will be to find me all moods.” "If they only prove as attractive as the particular one swaying you to­ night, I shall certainly have no cause* for complaint. Come. Miss Nalda, please cultivate the mood to say yes before those others arrive." She glanced up at him. shaking her dark hair, her lips smiling. "My present mood is certainly a good-na­ tured one," she confessed, softly, “and consequently it la impossible to say no." His hand pressed hers, as the throng­ ing couples came merrily up the steps. "Why, Nalda, is this you. child? Where have you been all this time?” It was Miss Spencer, clinging <o MrWynkoop's arm. "Merely sitting out a dance," was the seemingly Indifferent answer; then she added sweetly, “Have you ever m<-t my friend. Lieut. Brant, of the Seventh cavalry. Phoebe? We were just going in to supper." Miss Sponcer.'s glance swept over the silent young officer. "I believe I have had the honor. It was my priv­ ilege to be introduced to the gentle­ man by a mutual friend.” The inward rush of hungry guests swept them all forward in laughing, jostling confusion; but Natda's cheeks burned with indignation. CHARTER XVI. The Reappearance of an Old Friend. After supper the lieutenant and Nalda danced twice together, the young girl's mood having apparently changed to one of buoyant, careless happiness, her dark eyes smiling, her lips uttering freely whatever thought came uppermost Outwardly she pic­ tured the gay and merry spirit of the night, yet to Brant already observing her with the jealousy of a lover, she appeared distrait and, restless, her af­ fectation of abandon a mere mask to her feelings. Perhaps these things might have passed unnoted but for their contrast with the late confiden­ tial chat. He could not reconcile this sudden change with what he believed of her. It was not carried out with the prac­ ticed art of one accustomed to deceit There mast be something real influ­ encing her action. These misgivings burdened bis mind even as he swung lightly with her to the music, and they talked together in little snatches. The last two waltzes ended, they walked slowly through the scattering throng, he striving vainly to arouse her to the former independence and intimacy of speech. Suddenly they came face to face with Mm. Herndon, and Brant felt the girl's arm twitch. “I have been looking everywhere for you. Nalda," Mm.

He indulged in no comment, his eyes perceiving a pathetic pleading in her upturned face. Suddenly there came to him a belief that the girl was crying; he could feel the slight tremor of her form against his own. He glanced furtively at her, only to catch the glitter of a falling tear. To her evident distress, his heart made in­ stant and sympathetic response. With all respect influencing the action, his hand closed warmly over the smaUer one on his sleeve. "Little girl,” he said, forgetting the shortness of their acquaintance in the deep feeling of the moment, “tell me what the trouble-is.” "I suppose you think me an awful creature for saying that." she blurted out, without looking up. “It wasn’t ladylike or nice, but—but I simply couldn't help it, Lieut. Brant." "You mean your sudden determina­ tion to carry me home with you?" he asked, relieved to think this might prove the entire difficulty. "Don't let that worry you. Why, I am simply re­ joiced at being permitted to go. Do you know. I wanted to request the privilege all the time we were dancing together. But you acted so differently from when we were beneath the vines that. I actually lost my nerve.” She looked up and he caught a fleet­ ing glimpse into her unveiled eyes. "I did not wish you to ask me." "What?" He stopped suddenly. "Why. then, did you make such an an­ nouncement to Mrs. Herndon?” "Oh. that was different,” she ex­ plained. uneasily. "I had to do that; I had to trust you to help me out, but —but I really wanted to go home alone." • He swept his unbelieving eyes around over the deserted night scene, not knowing what answer to return to so strange an avowal. “Was that what caused you to appear so distant to me �... .....J-IX-I'J.......... » TVUtws GAVE HI* NAME TO STEAK.

On almost every bill of fare are seen ^the words “porterhouse steak." Now, most people know what a por­ terhouse steak is, having on some oc­ casion eaten one, or at least a piece of beef that went by that name, but few people know how the name Itself originated. Years ago there wm a hostlery near Harvard university kept by a man named Porter. Soon this tavern became famous for its viands, especially for its cuts of meats. The stranger stopping there for a meal and not knowing exactly what to or­ der would be advised by his genial host Mr. Porter, to order a steak. So good were his steaks that travelers often spoke of them, and gradually began referring to them as the “steak you get at Porter's houee." From that it was but a short time before they were referred to as the “porter house steak." Since then butchers all over the country have found out the way in which Mr. Por­ ter cut his famous steak, and have been making the same cuts them­ selves, hence the- porterhouse steak' has been served the country over.

It was just at this time that the faithful Jacob, unwittingly playing at head or tail In the matter, unearthed sometking that meant head for his master. He discovered a big root of Mrs. Graham's larch tree on Mr. Pot­ ter’s ground. It was quickly taken out at the latter's demand. Then Mrs. Graham noticed her tree slowly dying and. learning" the cause, con­ sulted a lawyer. He suggested her next move. She went away and' rent­ ed her house to a widow with a large family. One morning, as he gravely served his master's breakfast, Jacob volun­ teered the information. "There's a new family moved in next door, sir." Mr. Potter laid down his knife and fork and. transfixing hrs servuLt with a glance, Inquired: “She hasn't sold out, that widow woman, baa she?” , "No,,sir," said Jacob cheerfully. ’7 hear she's gone east for the summer and rented the house.” “What kind of a family is it, Ja­ cob?" said Mr. Potter, comfortably re­ suming his breakfast “Well, I don't see no man, and she wears black. She must be a widow,” replied Jacob thoughtfuL’y. “I don't like widows," said Mr. Pot­ ter, decidedly. : ‘'But a change may be for the better. She can’t be worse than the other, anyhow. Any chil­ dren ?’’ "Well, there's one little boy on crutches, about seven years old—" “Good enough,” commented Mr. Pot­ ter, between two bites of biscuit; "he will not be likely to play Indian, or climb trees. One boy Isn't so bad, Ja­ cob; lame at that.” “Then there's a boy about ten." went on Jacob, staring bard at the opposite wall, "that they call Billy; and 8 girl of 14, and another boy in kilts, and a baby girl about two, and a dog, and a parrot, and—" "Jacob!” roared Mr. Potter, “this breakfast isn't fit for the stomach 'of a cannibal. Take it out instantly, and mind you, don't show your face here again to-day." "I'll run a barbed wire fence she feet high all around my premises, and I hope It!! Impale every one of ’em," raged the old man, quite pale with anger and pain. "Jacob, you rascal, close that door. I told you not to show your face here again today." But the door continued to open un­ til it admitted a most unusual appari­ tion—a baby form, clad in a blue gingham Mother Hubbard (very dingy down tbs front and quite stiff from the ironing board tn the back),curl­ ing, silky hair, appealing blue eyes, and chubby eheeks that bore the fur­ rows of forgotten tears.

Sole Agency for ’em for You." unconscious figure home—even then Mr. Potter picked up the crutches and collected the scattered flowers with the same curious feeling that the man who could do so dastardly an act should, like any other rabid animal, be shot down. But he bad plenty of time and noth­ ing to do but collect bis scattered faculties, after all. His first lucid de­ cision was that It would cost him at least 5500 for that blow; the next, that he would be forever despised by all men among whom be had before walked upright. Then, what if the child were seriously hurt—should die? Unbearable! Where was Jacob? Not a sound outside—no| even a twinge of rheumatism to divert his miffd. So he lay and groaned, while his couch be­ came, after a manner, a Procrustean bed that stretched out his soul to its full and proper slip and lopped off its deformities, every one. For days Mr. Potter hatched the regular visits of the doctor .to the next bouse, and waited for a magis­ trate's warrant for himself. But none came. Jacob gleaned daily that the boy was about the same. And then the manliness and repentance struggling in the old man’s heart could endure it no longer. He took up his bat and went to see for him­ self. "Oh, yes," said Bobby's mamma, cheerfully, “Bobby is much better,” “Could an angel be more beautiful than this?" thought Mr. Potter, "with her slender black figure and anxious face and her lovely, forgiving eyes!” "I’d like to do something,” said the old man, sitting down weakly and covering bls face with his hands. "So you shall," said Bobby's mam­ ma, with rare tact. "Now, if our Bobby had but a wheel chair—" But Mr. Potter did more than that It was he who caused Bobby to walk at last without crutches—Bobby’s fortitude, of course, that endured the long, painful process of steel braces and plaster molds, but Mr. Potter's money. And when the Widow Graham re­ turned from her six months' sojourn in the east to find her old neighbor with a fondness for cbildhen devel­ oped in bls old age, an astonishing toleration of dogs and parrots, and his flowers more beautiful than ever, she waa doubtful If her plan had succeed­ ed after all. But It had. It had com­ pletely annihilated her old enemy, Mr. Potter, and a new Mr. Potter stood in his place. Dr. Hess’ ^78637 Dr. Bese’ Stock Food. Poultry Pan-a-ce-a.

Realizing that the corset of today ha* a greater direct influence over a woman* general appearance than any other article in her wardrobe, we hare endeavored to find for our customers a line of corsets wherein style would lie combined with comfort and endurance at low priees. We are confident that we > have at last found a brand of corsets wherein these cardinal points are suc-^ eessfully combined. We have placed in stock a line of J. C. C. Corsets, aVB brand recognized throughout the United States a* being the very acme, of style K and endurance. If you nave a ‘‘difficult" figure and are tired of hours of ex- r< periniehting with styles that never seem just right, you should know the J. C. V C. The makers of J. C. C. corsets have so carefully planned the styles for v various figure types and so skillfully graded the measurements of every part , of each Corset that a satisfactory fit for every woman is assured. . Under the J. C. C. brand (the Peerless and Cortright’* Favorite) you will find models suited to every type of figure. Each is a health corset and a beauty corset in one, . moulding tne figure to perfect grace withoutlhe slightest discomfort. Girlish | ' hips and tapering waists are just as possible to women of 40 as they are. to. girl* of 20, if they select the right J. C. C. model. Every demand you make on a corset is answered in the J. C. C-. You ask comfort— it is there in the fullest degree. You want graceful slender lines—nothing equals the J. C. C. for grace giving. You want long service—you will find the J. C. C. as strong in wearing qualities as it is in beauty qualities and your price limit—well, we think the J. C. C. meets that "requirement quite satisfactorily too. 45c and 95c Boys’ or youths’ sweaters37c, 65c and 70c Children's wool sweaters......48c, 50c, 95c Men's heavy wool sweaters90c The “Way” muQer worn by ladies, men. boys and girlsr. ” ... . 40c Ladies’ wool fasdk^tors45c Ladies’ Newport wool shawls A .... 60c Ladies’ and children’s mittens10c, 15e, 25c .Men's gray sanitary double fleeced under­ shirts, he’avy weight, per garment.............. 45c Men’s underdrawers to match45c kien’s wool undershirts, double front and back 95c and $1.35 Men’s wool underdrawers to match95c, $1.35 Ladies’ silver gray plush back, jersey ribbed undervest, quadruple plush fleecing and es­ pecially adapted for extreme cold weather.. .45c Ladies' bleached pure white, straight button front union suits, perfect fit, elastic seams; each 70c Misses' union suits...................... .....45c Children’s fleeced union suits45c Boys’ solid heavy double fleeced undershirts, size 24 to 34.................................................... ....27c Boys’ underdrawers to match27c Our candies are almost all gone but that is what keeps a fresh line all the time.

ROSCOE Lansing.—That indigent or helpless people are. committed to insane asy­ lums in order that their relatives may escape their care and maintenance is the .charge made by C. W. Mason, a Menotninee man, after a visit to the upper peninsula hospital at Newberry. Tile extent to which this practice Is carried Id not realized by the average person, according to Mr. Mason. At Newberry he says he saw nearly 700 pitiable creatures, housed and .cared for, most of them "pooy wrecks thrown up by the tide of humanity.” A promi­ nent citizen of tbe town told him that nearly-every week some hopeless per­ son is brought to the Newberry Insti­ tution whose mental condition does not In any way warrant such commitment. Tho sole reason for this, Mr. Masqp declares, is because unnatural rela­ tives "do not want them around," and seek to shirk their duty in supporting them. Most of these unfortunates are aged persons whose active life is over and -who are helpless to resist The Newberry hospital is an unusually fine institution of its kind. It is'under the management of an able corps of medi­ cal experts, and some 130 assistants and attendants minister to the needs of the unfortunates under their charge. Beautiful grounds delight the eye, pleasant employment and plenty of amusement are furnished to all, ath­ letic grounds afford abundant exercise, and the buildings are neat, comforta­ ble and well appointed. Religious ser­ vices are held on Sunday and at all times the inmates are given kind and intelligent treatment. However, Mr. Mason points out that any Insane asy­ lum is a place of horror. To force helpless and unfortunate persons into such an environment is the height of cruelty and a barbarous practice that should be stamped out It should, he declares, be made a criminal offense punishable to both relatives and offi­ cials. The pathetic scenes to be wit­ nessed as the unfortunate victims are brought to Newberry, as well as those constantly transpiring at the hospital, are too heartrending to bear descrip­ tion. the Menominee man says. As he passed through one ward from out of a corner rose an aged Menominee wo­ man. ,-atlonal and intelligent, begging for liberty and home in a most affect­ ing manner. "There are only too many real Insane patients, who need and would be benefited by commitment to the hospital for the mentally diseased, without the state being made to bear the burdens of those unnatural and contemptible persons who railroad to these Institutions their feeble and helpless relatives whose only 'crime' is their age, infirmity and depend­ ence," declares Mr. Mason.

Is the advice of an Iowa professor of agriculture. We would amend this by suggesting that the crop you expect to raise on the land has something to do with it, as does also the length of time to elapse be­ fore the crop is sown or planted. Plowing deep for wheat Is, all right -If the plowing Is done in time so the soil will settle before seeding, but he who plows deep one week and drills" In his wheat the next Is courting failure. For English bluegrass, timothy or any such crop. It is a detriment to plow very deep. We have found this out through sad and costly experience. Deep plowing furnishes too loose a seed bed for any of this stuff, and it is a hundred times more apt to dry out or freeze out before the winter is over. Like a good may rules, the one re­ ferring to deep plowing In the fall should be practiced only after a full and careful consideration of the field to be plowed aud the crop to be sown.

Their hands met for an instant of warm pressure, and then the two left behind stood motionless and watched him striding along the moonlit road. he was In tove with Naida. he would merely have laughed.,wereurh' «mfldt-nt that nothing more than g«utlomanly Interest swayed his conduct. Nevertheless, he manifested an un­ reasonable dislike tor Hampton. He had n-vr before felt thus toward this person; indeed, he had possessed a strong man's natural admiration for the other s physical power and cool, determined courage. He now sincere1y feared Hampton’s power over the innocent mind of the girl. Imagining bls Influence to be much stronger than it really wj»s. and he sought after some suitable means for overcoming it. He alone, among those who might be, considered as her true friends, knew of her secret Infatuation, and upon him. alone, therefore, rested the burden of her release. It was his heart that drove him into such a de­ cision. although he conceived it them to be the reasoning of the brain. And ao she was Naida Gillis, poor old Gillis’ tittle girl! He stopped sud­ denly in the road, striving to realize the thought He had never dreamed of such a consummation, and it stag­ gered him. What was there la com­ mon betweep that outcast, and this well-groomed, frankly spoken young woman? Yet, whoever she was or had been, the remembrance of her could not be conjured oat of his brain. He might look back with repugnance upon those others, those misty phantoms of the past, bat the vision of his mind, his ever-changeable divinity of the vine shadows, would not become ob­ scured, nor grow teas fascinating. Suddenly there occurred to him » rec­ ollection of Silent Murphy, qnd his strange, unguarded' remark. What could the fellow have meant? Was there Indeed some secret in the life history of this young girl?—some story of shame, perhaps? If so, did Hampton know about it? Already daylight rested white and solemn over the silent valley, and only .a short distance away lay the spot where the crippled scout had made his solitary, camp. Almost without vo­ lition the young officer turned that way, crossed the stream by means of the log, and clambered up the bank.. But it was clearat a glance that Mur­ phy had deserted the spot. Convinced of this, Brant retraced his steps to-, ward the camp of his own troop. now already astir with the duties of early morning. Just in fvont of his tent he encountered his first sergeant. "Watson,” he questioned, as the lat­ ter saluted and stood at attention, "do you know a man called Silent Murphy?” , “The scout? Yes, sir; knew him as long ego as when he was corporal tn your father's troop. He was reduced to the ranks for striking an officer.”Brant wheeled’ in astonishment. "Whs be Over a soldier in the Sev­ enth?” "He’ was that, for two enlistments, and a mighty tough one; but he was always quick enough for a fight in field or garrison.” "Has Ke shown himself here at the camp?” “No, sir; didn’t know be was any­ where around. He and I were never very good friends, sir.” . The lieutenant remained silent for several moments, endeavoring to per­ fect some feasible plan. ' "Dispatch an order to the telegraph office," he finally commanded, "to in­ quire if this man Murphy receives any messages there, and if they know where he is stopping. Send an intel­ ligent man and have him discover all the tacts he can. When he returns bring him in to me." He had enjoyed a bath and a shave, and was yet lingering over his cof­ fee, when the two soldiers entered with their report. The sergeant step­ ped aside, and the orderly, a tail, boy­ ish looking fellow with a pugnacious chin, saluted stiffly. "Well, Bane,” and the officer eyed his trim appearance with manifest ap­ proval/“what did you succeed in learn­ ing?” "The operator said this yere Mur­ phy had never bln thar himself, sir, but there wus several messages come fer him. One got here this mornin’.” "What becomes of them?" "They’re called fer by another fel- "Oh. they.are! Who?" "Red Slavin wus the name he give me of thet other buck.” When the two had disappeared. Brant sat back thinking rapidly. There was a mystery here, and such actions must have a cause. Something eith­ er in or about Glencaid was com­ pelling Murphy to keep out of sight —bat what? Who? Brant was un­ able to get it out of his head that all this secrecy centered around Naida. Perhaps Hampton knew; at least he might possess some additional scrap of Information which would help to solve the problem. He looked at bls watch, and ordered^ his horse to be saddled. • It did not seem quite so simple now, this projected Interview with Hamp­ ton, as it had appeared the night be­ fore. In the clear light of day, he began to realise the weakness of his position, the fact that he possessed not the smallest right to speak on be­ half of Naida Gillis. Nevertheless, the die was cast, and perhaps, provided an open quarrel could be avoided, the meeting might result in good to all concerned. Hampton welcomed him with dis­ tant but marked courtesy, having evi­ dently thought out his own imme­ diate plan of action, and schooled him­ self accordingly. Standing there, the bright light streaming over them from . CHAPTER XVII. the open windows, they presented two The Very* of a Quarrel. widely contrasting personalities, yet fileting emotions, but a single abiding each exhibited in figure and face the conviction never once left him—he re­ evidences of bard training and Iron discipline. _Hampton, was clothed In •yes studied bis opponents at the card tabiv. Brant looked the picture of a soldier on duly, trim, well btrili. erect, his fceolute bl«e eyes never flinching from. the steady gaze bent upon him. his bronzed young face grave from the seriousness of bln mission. In both miads the same thought lingered— I the vague wonder how much the oth­ er knew. The elder man, however, .re­ tained a better self-control and was first to break the Milence. ' "Miss Gillis Informed me of your kindness to her last evening.” he said, quietly, "and in her, behalf I sincerely thank you. Permit me to offer yon a chair." Brant accepted ft and sal down, feeling the calm tone of proprietorship tn the words of the other as if they had been a blow.. His face flushed, yet he spoke firmly. "Possibly I mis­ construe your meaning." he said, with some biuntness. determined to reach the gist of the matter at once. "Did Miss Gillis authorize you to thank me for these courtesies?" Hampton smiled with provoking calmness, holding an unlighted cigar between his fingers. "Why, really, as to that I do not remember. I merely mentioned it as expressing the natural gratitude of us both." “You speak as if you possessed full authority to express her mind as well as your own.” The other bowed gravely, his face impassive.- "My words quite naturally bear some such construction." . The officer hesitated, feeling more doubtful than ever regarding his own position. Chagrined, disarmed, he felt like a prisoner standing bound before his mocking captor. "Then I fear jny plssion here is useless:" . "Entirely so. If you come for the purpose I suspect," said Hampton, sit­ ting erect in his chair, and speaking with more rapid utterance. “To lec­ ture me on morality, and demand my yielding up all influence over this girl —such a mission Is assuredly a fail­ ure. I have listened with some de­ gree of calmness In this room already to one such address, and surrendered to Its reasoning. But permit me tt>* say quite plainly, Lieut Brant, that you are not the person from whom I will quietly listen to another." “I had very little expectation that you would." "You should have Lad still less, and remained away entirely. However, □ow that you are here, and the sub­ ject broached, it becomes my turn to say something, and to say It clear­ ly. It seems to mo you would ex­ hibit far better taste and discrimina­ tion if from now on you would cease forcing your attentions upon Miss GH11a" Brant leaped to his feet, but the other never deigned to alter his post- Best for cakes of all makes local "“Forcing my attentions!" exclaimed thd officer. “God's mercy, man! do you realize what you are saying? I have forced no attentions upon Miss GUlis." "My reference was rather to future possibilities. Young blood Is prov­ erbially hot, and I thought it wise to warn you in time." Brant stared into that Impertnrbed face, and somehow the very sight of Its calm, Inflexible resolve served to clear his own brain. He felt that this cool, self-controlled man was speak­ ing with -authority. . (Continued.) Market quotations. Following arc the prices quoted this morning by local buyers. .1 .90 Wheat.....

System Is the Secret of Successful Marketing of Crops. , A good barrel i& essential if you wish to store your fruit, have it Keep well and sell well. A tight barrel Is tfie best, and the better it is made the better results ypu will have. There will be smaller loss from shrinkage of frulL from rats and mice and other ^causes. ’ In my orchard, writes a correspond­ ent of Orange Judd Farmer, 1 have eight- pickers and six sorters and barrelers In each gang. A strong sort­ ing table, constructed of light, strong, material Is provided. This table Is set in the center of 16 trees. Some­ times, if fruit is scarce and trees are small, in the center of 24 or 36 trees. Four or six rows are carried forward at once and the table is moved along the center rows*and set in the middle of the square at each move. One man usually nails the hoops, the headliners, and takes out the heads of the barrels, preparing them for filling. It is quite important to have headliners, as it prevents loss In shipping and facilitates in the ex­ amination. and inspection df fruit in storage. This man usually heads up the» barrels when fitted. A seco .id man does the facing, and a third, who should be a good apple man and foreman of the gang, emp­ ties the baskets and assists in the sorting. He inspects the fruit as sorted and directs the work. This leaves .three men who do nothing but stand at the table and sort. If the pickers are not able to keep the table supplied, a man from the table Is put Into the trees to pick. food 'as much again butterfat ■ as the other. The butter product of the food Is 100 per cent, greater with one cow than the other. This fact is seen in too great frequency in all herds of cows. What is that inner quality whereby one cow can produce so much more than the other from the tame food? asks Hoard’s Dairyman. It is hard to find the right name for IL but it may be called *’dair£ qual­ ity." Now. certain breeds of cattle are distinguished for this, quality. They have the power to accomplish this work in greater proportion and perfection by reason of having been bred to that purpose from tong lines of ancestors of like quality. One would think that there would not be a dairy farmer in the land who would not be keenly alive to the necessity and economy of using such cattle for dairy purposes: As soon would we think he would cut hay with a reaper and call it the best way. But the so-called general purpose notion has destroyed in not a few men the power to look Into this ques­ tion in' an,economical way,,says the Farmers’ Voice. They seem to be un­ able to take the same advantage in their choice of cow machinery that they do in choosing their mechanical machinery. They cannot be fooled into taking a • plow -for a cultivator, yet thousands of farmers will spend their lives In trying to make cows of beef breeding do dairy work. If they were close students of "cause and effect” they would not be beguiled this way. . . Why should not the farmer be close student of cause and effect? In the selection of men to look after the wants of my customers, it has ever been my aim tc delect men who merited and enjoyed the con­ fidence of the public.

Corsets, a WE brand recognized throughout the United Slates as being the very acme of style M and endurance. If you nave a “difficult” figure and are tired of bourn of ex- fJ perimenting with styles that never seem just right, you should know the J. C. S| C. The makers of J. C.

Under the J. C. C. brand (the Peerless and Cortright’s Favorite) you will find models suited to every type of figure. Each’is a health corset and a beauty corset in one, . moulding the figure to perfect grace without the slightest discomfort. Girlish hips and tapering waists are just as possible to women of 40. as they are to girls of 20, if they select the right J. C. C. model. Every demand you make on ■ a corset is answered in the J. C.

STEAD'S LOGIC MAY SAD TRAGEDY IN THE TOMBS BE FOUND FAULTY FORMER ITALIAN ARMY OFFICER HURLS HIMSELF TO QEATH. GOV. DENEF.N WILL TRY TO OUST THE ECONOMY COMPANY OF JOLIET. Says New Conditions Make Law— Illinois Executive Determined to Carry Waterway Litigation to High­ est Court If Tha». Is Necessary. Springfield, 111. Nov. 12.—Law arises out of new conditions, and conditions now may be such that the court will modify Its former views. This apothegm, ujtered Monday by Gov. Dencen, sets out lhe principle under which the executive will pro­ ceed with lhe hope ot finding a legal method for forcing the'Economy Light & Power company of Joliet to aban­ don work on' its new. dam across the Desplaines river at Dresden Heights. Following a long conference with Attorney General Stead, in which was reviewed the attorney general's opin­ ion that the Economy company lias a "cinch" on the water-power developed at Dresden Heights. Gov. Deneen be;;an the formulation of plana to cir­ cumvent the Joliet corporation, not­ withstanding the contrary advice of the legal department of the estate. The governor does not question the sincerity of the Stead opinion and he has high regard for the legal abil­ ity of Its author. He does believe. However, that the attorney general's logic Is not Incontrovertible and he Is convinced the state should not give up the fight until finally defeated In the highest .courts. Public Policy Should Count. Frfends of the deep waterway­ project are of the opinion that in the consideration of a proposftion of thU magnitude, the question of public pol­ icy "would enter largely , into the su­ preme court’s decision. Unless the law is positively against the state'F contention, It Is believed the court would be slow to defeat an^ enterprise of these proportions by declaring the water-power Incidentally created be­ longs to private Interests. Instead of "o the public.

Wants the Bill Passed. Gov. Deneen will set to work at once collecting evidence for the suit to be prosecuted by the state to oust the Economy company from the Dres­ den Heights dam work. In the meantime, the executive will insist upon legislative action upon the Allen-Lantx navigability bill. His theory is that the legislation will be harmless If the courts declare it In­ effectual. while on the other hand, great Injury would follow if the legis­ lation were lacking when it would be effective.

His feelings toward Hampton had been materially changed. He found it Imjossiblc to nurse a dislike which seemingly had no real cause for existence. Yet Brant was far from being satis­ fied. Hampton had not even advanc­ ed a direct claim; he had dodged tbe real issue, leaving the soldier In the dark regarding his relationship to Nalda, and erecting a barrier between the other two. It was a masterpiece of defense, puxrfftng. Irritating, seem­ ingly Impassable. From the consid­ eration of’it all, Brant emerged with but one thought clearly defined—who­ ever she might prove to ba, whatever was- her present connection with Hampton, he loved this dark-eyed, aubtim-haired waif. He knew it now, and never again could ho doubt It. He paused, half Inclined to retrace his steps and have the matter out. He turned just In time to face a dazzling vision of fluffy lace and floss/ hair beside him in the dlffifly lighted bait “Oh, Lieutenant Brant!" and the vision clung to his arm tenderly. "It Is such a relief to find that you are unhurt Did—dfd you kill him?" Brant stared. ”1—1 fear I scarcely compehend, Miss Spencer. I have cer­ tainly taken no one's life. What can you mean?” ’ “Oh. I am so glad; and Nalda will be, too. 1 must go right back end tell the poor girl, for she Is nearly dis­ tracted. Oh, Lieutenant, isn’t it the most romantic situation that ever was? And he is such a mysterious character!" "To whom do you refer? Really, I am quite in the dark.” • “Why, Mr. Hampton, of course. Oh, I know all about it. Nalda felt so bad­ ly over your meeting this morning that I just compelled her to confide her whole story to me. And. didn't you fight at all?” “Most assuredly not.” and Brant's eyes began to exhibit amusement; “in­ deed, we parted quite friendly." "I told Nalda I thought you would. People don't take such things so seri­ ously nowadays, do they? But Nalda is such a child and so full of romantic notions, that she worried terribly about It Isn't It perfectly delightfuF what he is going to do for her?” . “I am sure I do not know." “Why, hadn’t you heard? He wants to send her east to a boarding school and give her a fine education. Do you know. Lieutenant. I am simply dying to see him? he is such a perfectly splendid western character. “It would afford me pleasure to pre­ sent you," and the soldier's downcast face brightened with anticipation. "Do—do you really think It would be proper? But they do things so dif­ ferently out here, don't they? Oh, I wish you would." Feeling somewhat doubtful as to what might be the result. Brant knocked upon the door he had just closed, and. in response to the voice within, opened It. Hampton sat upon the chair by the window, but as his eyes caught a glimpse of the returned soldier with a woman standing beside him. he instantly rose to his fe^t. "Mr. Hamnion." nnfd »-u«t I may be pardoned for again trouonn* you, but this Is Miss Spencer, a great admirer of western life, who is desir­ ous of making your acquaintance.” Miss Spencer swept gracefully for­ ward, her cheeks flushed, her hand ex­ tended. "Oh, Mr. Hampton, I have so wished to meet with you ever since I first read your name In Aunt Lydia's letters—Mrs. Herndon is my aunt, you know—and all about tha‘, awful time you had with those Indians. You see. I am Nalda Gillis’s most particular friend, and she tells me so much about you. She is such a dear, sweet girl! She felt so badly this morning over your meeting with Lieut. Branj, fearing you might quarrel! It was such a relief to find him unhurt, but I felt that I must see you also, so as to relieve Nalda's mind entirely." "I most certainly appreciate your frankly expressed interest. Miss Spen­ cer.” he said, standing with her hand still retained in his. "and am exceed­ ingly glad there is one residing in this community to whom my peculiar mer­ its are apparent." . Miss Spencer Sparkled instantly, her cheeks rosy. “I do wish you would some time tell me about your exploits. Why. Mr. Hampton, perhaps If you were to call upon me. you might see Nalda. too. I wish you knew Mr. Moffat, but as you don't, perhaps you might come with Lieu-'.. Brant." Hampton bowed. “I would hardly venture thus to place myself under the protection of Lieut. Brant, al­ though I must confess the former at­ tractions of tbe Herndon home are now grea'ly Increased. From my slight knowledge of Mr. Moffat's capa­ bilities, I fear I should be found a ••nther indifferent entertainer; yet I -erely hope we shall meet again at . time when I can 'a tale unfold.’" "How nice that will be, and I am so grateful to you for the promise. Bythe bye, only this very morning a man stopped me on the street, actually mistaking me for Nalda.” “What sort of a looking man, Miss Spencer?" "Large, and heavily set, with a red beard. He was exceedingly polite when informed of his mistake, and raid he merely had a message to de­ liver to Miss Gillis. But he refused to tell it to me.” The glances of the two men met, but Brant was unable to decipher the meaning hidden within the gray eyes. Neither spoke, and Miss Spencer, nev­ er realizing what her chatter meant, rattled merrily on. "You see there are so many who speak to me now. because of my pub­ lic position here. So I thought noth­ ing stran-e at first, until I discovered his mistake, and then it seemed so ab­ surd that I nearly laughed outright. Isn’t it odd what such a man could possibly want with her? But really, gentlemen,'! must return with m~ news; Nalda will be so anxious. I am glad to have met you both.” Hampton bowed‘politely, and Brant conducted ber silently down the stair­ way. “I greatly regret not being able to accompany you home,” b* explain­ ed, "but‘I came down on horseback, and my duty requires that I retufn at once to the camp.” “Oh, indeed! how.very unfortunate for ipe!” Even as she said so, some unexpected vision beyond flushed her cheeks prettily. "Why, Mr. Wynkoop," she exclaimed, "I am so glad you hap­ pened along, and going my way, too, I am sure.

Side drains may be constructed in the cuts on each side of the road, just outside of the limits of the macadam. These drains consist of narrow trenches, filled with broken stones or small gravel stones, with a pipe five or six inches in diameter near the bottom. The pipe Is laid with open points, true to grade, and Is carried to a proper outlet. Sometimes the pipe is omitted and the entire trench filled with stones, in which case it is called a blind drain. Such drains serve to cut off the subsurface water before It can get under the macadam. A trench of a width identical with the width of the macadam may be excavated for a depth of from 12 to 18 Inches in the center and to a depth of from six to eight Inches on the sides, shaped on tbe bottom like a flattened letter V. This trench Is filled with field or any sort of stones, varying In slxe from the smallest ob­ tainable to such as are eight or ten inches in diameter, the largest stones being placed at the bottom. The stones need not be placed with special care, but yet so as tc permit - their consolidation by a roller. The bot­ tom of the trench should be tolerably true to grade, and “cut-off" lateral trenches filled with stones are neces­ sary to carry the Water to proper out­ lets. Such a drain is usually effective? and ordinarily costs less than two side or blind drains. INDEPENDENT ORDER FORESTERS.

All kinds of light and heavy moving promptly and carefully done. Dealers in wood, baled But few farmers think of the In­ fluence of feeding on the quality of the bacon or pork. It Is a wellknown fact that "mast" makes soft, oily bacon, as d« peanuts and other light feeds. Corn is not always best for an exclusive diet, but If a pig has been kept growing and has bad plenty of good pasture till it is six months old and weighs say 150 to 200 pounds, it will be well to feed It on corn alto­ gether till another 100 pounds Is gained. After a pig is fat it is best te finish off by feeding a mixed ration of skim milk and oats or barley for a few weeks before butchering. Skim milk has a tendency to make the pork more firm, as has likewise both oats and barley. Pigs that have not had proper pasturage while growing will not make as good bacon as those that have been properly cared for. declares Farmers’ Voice, Before the subject of curing bacon la touched it is well to look so far ahead as the growing the pig.

But tbe system of culture has not general! included the use of.the turning plow. It was thought that if the surfaqs was kept mellow and free from weeds, all requirements had been met In fact there seems to have been something of prejudice against tbe use of the plow, as It was feared that the Injury to the tree roots would oouuteract any beneficial effect ' The continued use of shallow culti­ vators tends to form a hard pan and many orchards show the effects. Roots need air, and lots of IL in order to do their work effectively. The root hairs are leu abundant and many are killed if the tree Is compelled to live continuously in a hard, compact soil. The effect on the tree is much the same as though too much water had been allowed, to accumulate about the roots. Some means should be taken to loosen sych soils, and this can be done best with a plow, particularly if supplemented by some growing crop or stable manure which Is turned un- Peach growers fn one of the best sections of Colorado, up to about three years ago, would scarcely allow a plow in the orchard; but since that time its use has come to be nearly universal. And wc predict fhat it will not be. long until a system of green manuring will also come into general use. The time of year to use the plow la now agitating the minds of many. The spring has been adopted In the east, where for 15 year* a great deni of study has been devoted to the subject of orchard culture- The orchard land’ Is broken up as early as the weather will permit, and clean culture Is given till the end of the growing season, when a cover crop is sown. Convenient rains usually start this crop into growth, when It helps mature tree growth by using surplus moisture and protects the soil In various ways until the following spring, when it Is turned under to supply vegetable matter and fertility to the soil. We are now pretty well agreed that the turning plow should be used but extended Inquiries among orchardlsts show that in general they have had better results by turning tbe land over in the fall. The main reason advanced for this preference is that If the land is plowed in the spring, and particu­ larly If a green crop has been turned under, it is nearly Impossible to get water over the ground without the most of it getting much to wet. The result is yellow foliage and a set-back to the trees, from which It takes them some time to recover. This experience will probably be found to be true of must soils. We conclude then, that the use of the turning plow is very desirable, if not essential, where clean cultivation is given, and in tbe present state, of our knowledge the fall of the year after the leaves are off. is tbe best time for its use. HAND PJCKED. Paint the ladders before putting them away. Cultlrifclon of the strawberry bed should continue until the ground freezes; but don’t mulch the plants too early—wait until the ground freezes sufficiently hard to hold up a wagon. Planning for an evergreen wind­ break to protect your orchard? All right, good Idea: but don’t set the trees this fall. Order them from the nurseryman now, but tell him to ship them in ths spring. Grade your apples when you take them to market. .You can get a bet­ ter price for the best ones and the others will sell better than they, would If all mixed in with something else. lender varieties ot grapes, rasp­ berries. blackberries, etc., can be pro­ tected through the winter, in cold cli­ mates, by bending down the canes along the row and covering with earth. —Farm Journal. Provide for Surface Overflow. It Is not only requisite to have the land thoroughly tiled, but also nec­ essary to make provision for surface overflows. In late autumn make sur­ face ditches or cuts to catch winter’s surface waters and so save the plants. A little study, suggests Farm Journal, will show where to run them bo as most surely to lead away overflows. If not needed longer in spring they can be closed up. They need general­ ly be no bigger than farrows. The Cabbage Stub*. * As soon as the heads have been re­ moved from tbe cabbage stalks, the latter should be carried from the patch and thrown into the hog lot or piled up where they can be burned. Many of the fungous diseases, such as club root, result from leaving the roots or stubs In the patch too long. If It is thought that the ground needs a covering, throw a little manure on the surface. This can be removed in the spring if it is not necessary to plow it under. Farm Figures.

Relief for the Country—Treasury Also Will Put Out >100,000,000 In Cer­ tificate* of Indebtedness to Run Ono Year. Washington, Nov. 18 —Secretary Cortelyou Sunday night made the im­ portant announcement that as a means of affording relief to the financial sit­ uation, the treasury would Issue >50,000,000 of Panama bonds, and >100,000,000 certificates, of indebtedness, or so much thereof as may be necessary. The certificates will run for one year and will bear three per cent Interest The secretary’s action In coming to the relief of the financial situation meets with President Roosevelt's hearty approval, and the plan is the outcome of several White House con­ ferences which have been held within the past few days when the financial situation was under consideration. Will Afford Quick Relief. Secretary Cortelyou says that th* Panama bonds will afford most sub­ stantial relief, as the law provides that they may be used as a basis for additional national bank circulation. He also states that the proceeds from the sale of certificates can be made directly available at points where the need is most urgent, and especially for the movement ot crops, which, he says, “if ’ properly accelerated, will give the greatest relief and result in the most Immediate financial returns.” The secretary calls attention to the attractiveness of the bonds and cer­ tificates as absolutely safe Invest­ ments. Secretary Cortelyou adds that these relief measures will enable him to meet public expenditures without withdrawing for that purpose any ap­ preciable amount of the public moneys now deposited In national bank* throughout the country. Two treasury circulars, one inviting proposals for the Issue of bonds, and the other ask­ ing for the certificates, will be sent out under date of November 18. Preaident Roosevelt's Letter.

The president also calls attention to what la needed most at this time Is that the people should “realize how fundamentally sound business condi­ tions in this country are. and how ab­ surd it Is to permit themselves to get Into a panic and create a stringency by hoarding their saving* instead of trusting perfectly sound banks."

New York, Nov. 19.—Gratification was the prevailing tone in banking circles Monday over the government plan of relief to the market by the is­ sues of Panama bonds and one year treasury certificates.

Lansing.—Can electors be compelled to vote? Can those who do be re warded and those who do not be pun­ ished? This proposition was raised at the constitutional convention -In a proposal introduced by Delegate Bar­ bour, who would empower the legisla­ ture to reward and punish electors. His Idea to that some such measure must be taken to bring home to tbe average citizen the responsibility that rests upon him in casting his ballot not only for the officials to whom con­ trol of the municipality, state and na­ tion are to be entrusted, but also for the numerous measures that are sub­ mitted to the electorate for their Judg­ ment Those who fall to vote without a reasonable . excuse. Mr. Barbour would punish by both fine and impris­ onment, while as a reward of merit for’ those who do he would alloF a re­ bate of three dollars or some fixed amount on their taxes. While this would Increase the tax budget it to pointed out that only those who failed to perform their duty would suffer. The objection raised to that property owners' only would reap the harvest Mr. Barbour has advanced the propo­ sition In order tn Invite discussion, as he believes that the common good de­ mands the devisement of some method by which tbe largest possible percent­ age of the vote may be secured on all occasions demanding an expression from the people. The proposition is one that will attract a good deal of interest Delegate Barbour also intro­ duced a proposal to remove tbe posi­ tion of superintendent of public in­ struction from the political map by making it appointive for a term of four years at the hands of the state board of education, and to round out his offerings he introduced a simon pure woman suffrage proposition by eliminating tbe word "male" from the section referring to the qualifications of voters. To Protect Michigan’s Fere st*. With an attendance of about 500 delegates aud visitors the interstate forestry conference was held at Sag­ inaw. W. B. Mershon, a number of the state forestry commission, deliv­ ered the address of welcome. He re­ viewed the rise and fall of the lumber Industry In Michigan. As early as 1850 there were 44 mills operating in the Saginaw valley, and for 70 years Saginaw was the home of the white pine Industry, and for half a century Michigan, led the world In tbe output of pine, he said. The grand total of lumber sawed In Michigan to the pres­ ent date Is 25,000,000,000 feet, be added. John H. Bissell, president of the Michigan Forestry association, said he thought the time ripe for the state to engage in tbe work of re­ habilitating the forests on an exten­ sive scale, but the passage of laws to promote private reforestation more important still. President C. W. Gar­ field of the s!a|e forestry commission traced the steps of forestry agitation in Michigan, Prof. Roth of Ann Arbor taking up its status to-day. Samuel M. Lemon blamed politics for the failure to pass forestry legislation, es­ pecially condemning the treatment of the pine barrens and their confiscation for taxes. In his address on- "Taxation 'for forests," Dr. B. E. Feraow of the University of Toronto, one of the fore­ most experts of the continent, held that the state should encourage pri­ vate ownership of timber wastes. Their exemption, from taxation for a term of years, together with the ulti­ mate taxation of the timber harvest on its value, would promote private re­ planting, he declared. Congressman Loud and Townsend and Arthus Hill took part in the discussion. To Thresh Out Taxation. Probably the most Important sub­ ject discussed by the constitutional convention is "taxation,’’ and the de­ termination of whether the present system will be continued in the re­ vised constitution Is a matter of keen interest. TtfR*’ discussion started be­ fore the committee on finance and taxation when former LleuL Gov. Milnes made a brief but pointed argu­ ment in favor of separating state and county finances. The position out­ lined by him Is the one taken by those who favor a change. Mr. Milnes declared that the system of taxation would be greatly simplified If the gen­ eral expenses of the state were paid by the taxes received from public utility corporations, which now go to make up' the primary school fund. He took the view that the matter of edu­ cation is a business proposition, and one that each county ought to be re­ sponsible for. It was argued that much of the present expense could be done away with, as there would be no need .for a state tax commission, and that each county being independent the people would be better able to watch public matters and Insist on economy. On the other side it Is in­ sisted that if corporations were to pay the general expenses of the state there would be no incentive for the people . to take an Interest In state affairs.

"I suppose so; wo'ro engaged." There was ae enthusiasm in Edith Starr's voice. She was rtandinj; before the bureau in her own room, brushing out her long, .thick hair, and she con­ tinued the alow, regular motion with­ out a pause. . “H-m.” Miss Sarah Dyer looked keenly at her niece? interrogation in her handsome middle-aged face. She had returned the day before from Florida, where she had spent the win­ ter, and had been met with the news of Edith's engagement to Jack Dor­ man. This was the first opportunity she had found to speak to her niece on the subject For many reasons the engagement had been a surprise and something of a disappointment to Miss Dyer. Edith had been brought up under her care, and she undersood her thoroughly, She also knew. Jack Dorman—knew him very "well indeed. “We've been engaged only a week,” said Edith, still calmly brushing, "and of course it hasn't been announced^ parage another," she said, coldly. "Oh, everyone says he’s vain, Edith. Why, his walk.is enough to tell you that. But don't let us waste time talking about him, darling; let’s talk about ourselves.” "Do you think that will be more In­ teresting?" Edith’s Mp eurled a little. "Decidedly.

"Tour wife should be a dear, -plump little crea­ ture, full of kittenish ways, ready to laugh or cry as suited the occasion, and given over to the vanities and frivolities of this mundane world. doubt my ability to make you happy." "I’ll risk that,” said Jack, kissing her. “Of course I know who yotf were describing. I don't agree with you that that sort of a woman would suit me. Rose Thorp is pretty as a picture, but she is a silly little doll. All the men say so.” He met the silly little doll on the street the next day. She was attired in the latest fashion, and a diminu­ tive spaniel, wearing a velvet blanket edged with fur, followed her at the end of a gold chain. What a bright, gay little creature she was! Jack thought, as he turned away after parting from her. And she was certainly amusing. But how "No; you waited for my return. I utterly different from Edith Starr! suppose. Well, the world will call it a good match, and will be profuse with congratulations. Jack is young, hand­ some, well-bofn, well off, and des­ perately In love with you; while you are ditto in all except one ” “Which one, Aunt Saraji?" “You are not at all In love with him.” Edith started slightly and the brush paused for an Instant, but her flowing hair hid the sudden rush of color to her face. As the door closed behind the old lady, Edith let the brush fall with a sudden, impatient movement and threw herself into the low chair by the open fire which her aunt had just vacated. At half-past sfcven Jack Dorman ap­ peared as usual. He had made it a point since his engagement to call Secretary and Treasurer. every evening.

Of ail the conditions which influence the growth of crops none is more im­ portant than the amount of moisture in the soil. While water is absolutely essential to plants, ah excess is aa bad aa a deficiency. There are two kinds of conditions which require' drainage; first, land which is wet or marshy, because it is too flat to allow surface drainage; second, land which has sufficient slope to give good su-face drainage but which on account of the large amount of, vegetable matter or humus it contains* and of its impervious clay subsoil, does not have good underdrainage. The lack of drainage in the first case Is readily seen and understood, but the ^importance of drainage in the second case is not generally recog­ nised, although its benefits are as great as in the cases of marshes. Replies from 129 assessors, selected at random throughout the state, show that there nre 132,191 acres of land in their townships which are practically worthless for agricultural purposes be­ cause of lack of drainage. This is over 100 acres per township, at which rate there are but 1,500,600 acres in the entire state of this class of land. Then there are at least 1,000,000 acres of marshy land which are only partially productive on account of too much surface water to allow proper culti­ vation. In addition to this, there are at least 2,000,000 acres of up­ land clay soil which require under­ drainage to allow it to produce max­ imum crops. We believe that the thorough drainage of this fdur and a half mil­ lion acres would increase Its value one hundred million* dollars. In tho case of tile drainage of clay land already under cultivation, the Increase in yield varies from 15 to 50 per cent. This is a net profit on the cost of drainage, since there is no in­ crease in expense of cultivation of the land. In fact, it is easier to work drained land-than undrained land. Ex­ perience shows that drainage usually pays for itself In from two to four years. Considered in detail, the benfits from drainage are as follows: (a) Allows cultivation of land other­ wise not available for farming. (b) Allows earlier working in spring. (c) Allows the soil to warm up more rapidly in the spring, thus increasing the length of the sea­ son' and lessening the danger of frysL (d) Produces good ventilation and tilth in the soil. (e) Increases the amount of water available to crops. (f) Aids nitrification, retards deni­ trification. (g) Lessens surface washing. (b) Allows fields to be made uni­ form In outline and hence worked to better advantage. SCHOOL NOTES. Thanksgiving will be the theme for Wednesday morning exercise* in room 4.

Time to begin to corn the pigs. During 1996 26,235,000 pounds of flower bulbs were exported from the Netherlands. Corn is best suited to animals at plain, steady work. Its supply should be limited with colts and growing horses, because of its lack of ash and potash. Orchard grass is an excellent pas­ ture plant when properly managed, but Is not so nutritious or palatable as blue grass, although it furnishes more grazing during the season and also ranks high for nutritive qualities.

He had been ill for a long time with' heart trouble, but death resulted from an attack of kidney trouble, which de­ veloped only recently and his relatives and friends’ were totally unprepared for the blow. Mr. Townsend was one of the pio­ neers of Michigan, having been born in Woodland township and always living in Barry and Eaton counties. He was born on May 1, 1843. His father's name was Jesse Townsend who came with his wife to the farm where Richard was born, from New York stalo, in 1843. There were eight child­ ren in the family as follows: James, and Jesse who reside at Hastings, La­ fayette Of Woodland township, David, deceased', Mrs. Mary Townsend and Mrs. C. C* Stowell of Coats Grove, buy the amount he had intended to buy, but in all, .outside of cider ap­ ples, he will use up over six thousand bushels. These apples are being canned in gallon cans and in all, 38.000 gallon cans will be< put up. Mr. T. C. Rutter, of Council Bluffs, Iowa, is the processor and, is proving to be an experienced mac in she busk ness. The cans are neatly labeled and are Wing sold as fast as they are put up. Mr. Brooks is very pedic­ ular as to the fruit that goes into the cans and is also careful that • it is clean before it goes in, therefore there is no reason why the product should not meet a ready market. He estimates that he will have apples enongh to run the plant until about the first of January,. when he will commence the canning of beans. If tlds move proves successful it will be a^rood thing for the village, as there will be practically no end to the stock, and the season will last as long as the market demands. Take with this the maple sugar business, Mr. ‘Brooks’ plant will probably be busy all the year and will give employment fo a good many bands. THE Do you want to wear clothes that fit you?

He lived on the farm with his parents until 1868, when he was married to Mary E. • Mullen, when.“he removed to Hastings township, where he lived un­ til 1879 when with his family he moved to ' Vermontville where they resided ten years and camo to Nashville in 1889. He bought an interest in the elevator business of Wolcott, Smith & Company, which company was later absorbed by the firm of Town­ send & Brooks. Mr. H. A. Brooks be­ ing his partner in the business. This firm continued successfully for about ten years when Mr. Townsend bought his ’partner's interest arid conducted it alone until 1893, when he sold out to his sons, E. E. and R. C. Mr. Townserd was a veteran of the civil war, having served his country in that awful struggle for nearly three vears. He enlisted at Kalamazoo on September 1. 1862 and was discharged May 27, 1865. He was a member of the famous 5th Michigan cavalry, and of company L. Heexperienced all the vicissitudes of war having been in many battles and was for a year a prisoner in Andersonville prison, very few people know of his war rec­ ord for the fact that he was not a man to talk of his achievements, yet his record is a brilliant one and one that his relatives feel proud of. When Mr. Townsend retired from active participation in business life he found that he could not long be idle so be purchased the fine Morgan farm north of the village and stocked it with fine stock, the raising and breeding of which became very fasci­ nating to him and be was never proud­ er than when showing his fine herds to friends. He named the farm “Spring brook Stock Farm” and through his good management and enthusiasm has made a name for the farm that will* live long. Mr. Townsend had peculiarities as everyone has, but they were such that when he became thoroughly known they were good evidences of his sturdy character. He was honest himself and he thought that everybody else should be honest. He was vigorous in every­ thing that he undertook and this com­ bined with a spirit of fairness gained for him not only a sufficient competency but many friends as well. Mrs. Townsend passed away nearly two years ago, and since then he has made his pome .with his sons and It his own home alone until Wednes­ day, November 13, when he was united in marriage to Mrs. Mary Stuckey. Mr. Townsend’s father was one of the first settlers of this county, coming here when there were but three log shanties in Hastings city He pur­ chased from the government 330 acres of land and the farm is yet in the possession of his heirs, being owned now by Lafayette Townsend, a brother of Richard. The funeral was held from the house Sunday afternoon, Rev. Alfred Way officiating. The remains were laid to rest in tne family lot in Lakeview cemetery. The village mourns his demise and extends sympathy to the two sons, Earl and Ray and to the wife. One by one these sturdy pioneers are passing away, and while it is hard to think that we will some'|ime have to part with them it is harder to rea­ lize that they have entered upon the new life which is beyond all earthly dreams and we can see and converse with them no longer. Those bereaved and his many friends can console themselves with the fact that the world is better for his having lived in it and the record he left is one that they can point to with pride. A BUSY PLACE. The plant of M. B. Brooks is one of the busiest places in town at tile present time and indications point to its being so for a long time. Mr. Brooks was seriously handicapped this year by the disastrous tire which consumed a larger share of his evaporator, and incidentally de- The back end of John Ackett’s meat market was seriously damaged last Saturday afternoon by fire, which threatened for a time to spread to adjacent buildings and ao more senous damage. The fire was dis­ covered by-Mr. *Ackett’s son, Leslie, who was working in tbe.middle room, and when first seen was running along the celling of the back room. He called Emmett . Smith, who is also working there, and an alarm was sent in. The fire department re­ sponded promptly but tne fire spread so rapidly that it had gained con­ siderable headway before the water was' turned on. It is presumed that the fire was caused by an electric wire in the room where tho gasoline engine is stationed and that it was started near the gasoline tank, which was overturned and this helped the fire to spread, and this coupled with the fact that the building was grease-soaked and as dry as tinder made the fire department hard work , to save the adjoining buildings. . Mr. Ackett carried two insurance policies' each for five hundred dollars, on the building, but it seems.that one of them did not cover the part that jras burned. There was no insurance carried on the -contents of the building. - | The loss is a severe one to Mr. Ackett, as a great many of the market tools were destroyed and the gasoline engine, which was a new one, was J(radically rendered worthless. The rent building was badly blackened up by smoke and considerable meat was spoiled. . THE GREAT SOUTHWEST. To the editor of The Nashville News: Dear ‘Sir:—Thinking that your readers might be interested in some­ thing in regard to this country, I have endeavored to send a little ac­ count of it. Wo left Chicago at 6:30 p. m. on the 5th of November so we saw verylittle of the country until we reached Kansas City. We left there Wednes­ day noon and arrived at Topeka 3:50 Thursday, at noon we reached Chick­ asha, Indian Territory. That is a very nice town and from our obser­ vation it looked as though a large amount of business was done there. The next town was Waurika, which is situated between Oklahoma and In­ dian ; Territory Here is where the Rock Island railroad is building its shops and everything looks prosper­ ous. I should think by the looks of the town that it was hardly as large as Nashville, but it is surrounded by the best farming country we haye seen thus far. After this there isn’t much to see until you reach Fort Worth, Texas. Friday at 2 p. m. we arrived at Bay­ City. That is situated in the gulf country. We stayed here until 7 p. m. Here we saw oranges, lemons, and figs growing. We saw orange trees loaned yellow with fruit and some of the trees were only three years old. Potatoes, cabbage and all kinds of garden products are look­ ing fine. I should say that Bay City has a population of about 1500. It has two railroads and is growing very fast and think that in a very few vears it will have a population of 8,000 or 10,000. After leaving here you see all kinds of country and some of it is the very best land the sun ever shone up­ on. At 9 p. m. Friday we arrived at a swell place called Blessing. It has two railroads, one store, one hotel and two or three dwelling houses but they are making preparations to build a lot more buildings. It is sur­ rounded by some of tho best farming land to be found in Texas. We stayed here all night and the next morning the Hock Land company sent rigs over from Palacios and took us to that town. I almost believe that it is going to make the finest place there is in the land. It is situated on Palacios Bay in Matagorda oouoty. It is one of tne finest summer resorts in Texas. The water is shallow, which makes it very nice for bathing; it also has four oyster houses. No better fishing is found in this country. Trout, red snappers, sheep head, flounders are found in abundance. The farming land around Palacios is very good and the waler is fine and plenty of it. Land sells from 120 to 150 per acre, according to its location and some of it has sold from 175 to 1150 per acre. Rice seems to be the leading pro­ duction at the present time. One man told me that be rented 70 acres of land and put in rice on halves and realized over 11.700 for his share. I hare beard of a number of instances like this. Fancy Lamps!

MUNRO Exclusive selling agent “Between the Benke." All kinds of garden truck does well without irrigation. Before another year there will be acres of land set out to oranges, figs, dates and lemons. They tell me that alfalfa does well here also and a per­ son always has a good market for all they can raise. What this country needs is the northern farmer;-some one who has the “push” to them. The old settlers here- have great- confidence in this country. The weather here has been the cool­ est and more rain has fallen in the last ten days than has before since the oldest inhabitant can remember, but it is clearing up now. x . People come here from all parts of the United States to spend the sum­ mer. It is my candid belief that any one investing in property here will be a money maker. The majority of the houses cost little more than 6600. The walls beneath them are not expensive, as most of them are set, on big blocks about two feet from the ground. They side up on tho outside, sheet it on the inside with shiplap, cover it with cheese cloth and then paper and the house is completed.

Bradley was Insane at th* time she shot former. Senator Arthur Brown, of Utah, in this city on Decem­ ber 8 last, was the opinion of Dr. Wil­ fred M. Barton, of the medical depart­ ment of Georgetown's university, a specialist in nervous diseases, ex­ pressed at the trial of Mrs. Bradley Monday. Dr. Barton's testimony followed the reading (o blm of a hypothetical ques­ tion of 13,000 words covering the his­ tory of Mrs. Bradley's relations with Senator Brown from the day she met him to the day of the tragedy. Dr. Barton diagnosed Mrs. Bradley's ail meat as being puerperal Insanity caused by what ho d«*nribed as the contifiued assaults upon her nervous system du« to operations which she had had performed upon her. Considered Her Abnormal. ‘ In explaining why be looked upon her as an abnormal woman, he said she was Interested in things that do not usually attract women aud in­ stanced Che fact that she was secre­ tary of a political club as an evidence of her abnormality. Dr. Barton was on the stand practically the entire day. and was subjected to a severe cross examination by the district attorney, aided by the government Insanity ex­ perts, Dr. Smith Ely Jelllffe. of New York, and Dr. Edward S. Brush, of Baltimore. Dr. Barton proved to be a good witness for the defense. The defendant came into court look­ ing pale and haggard, evidently la anticipation that, after all, the' ques­ tion of h6r sanity or insanity at the time of the commission of the act was the paramount issue In the case. While al times she exhibited the keenest interest in all that was said, she generally seemed In a condition of mental dejection. Case May End Soon. Washington, Nov. 25.—Whether the Bradley case can be concluded this week or not, it entered upon Its final stages almost Immediately after the court convened Monday, and it Is con­ fidently expected that If the end Is not reached before Saturday night there will be comparatively little to do the following week. All will depend upon the extent of the wrangle over the technicalities In connection with the expert testimony as to Mrs. Bradley's mental condition when she shot Senator Brown, and the length of the arguments for aud against her. The Judge's Instructions to the jury, the only other important feature to be taken into consideration, will not con­ sume more than an hour's time. Thre* Day* of Speechmaking. - There will probably be three speeches In Mrs. Bradley's behalf, one each by'Mr. Hoover and Mr. Wells in opening for her and one by Judge Powers in closing. For the govern­ ment Mr. Turner will open and Mr. ‘ Baker close. Mr. Hoover and Mr. Wells do not count upon consuming more than two hours’ time between them, but it is probable that Judge Powers will talk for an entire day. as he will desire to summarize the favor­ able testimony and explain away as far as possible the points against his client. Mr. Baker will also speak at length. It Is therefore probable that the better part of three days will be consumed In the speechmaking. The alienists took the stand very soon after the beginning of the court's sitting Monday, but not until more of Senator Brown's letter* to Mrs. Brad­ ley had been read. Three Alienist* for Defense. The professional men who will be Introduced to testify in Mrs. Bradley's behalf are: Dr. Britton D. Evans, medical director for the New Jersey State Hospital for the Insane, who was one of the chief experts called for the defense on the Thaw trial; Dr. Charles D. Hill, of Baltimore, medical officer of the Mount Hope retreat and St. Joseph’s sanitarium of that city, and Dr. Wilfred M. Barton, professor of gynaecology at th* Georgetown (D. C.) college and an expert in mental and nervous diseases. The district attorney will do all in his power to combat the plea of in­ sanity. He and his assistants believe they have made their case. The opposition are Just as confident that they have shown a deranged mind and a provocation sufficient'to justify the jury In agreeing with them. Philadelphia, Nov. 22.—Mr*.

Nassau Company Decl—Reorganiza­ tion, Before Sale to Brooklyn Rap­ id Transit, Said to Have Provided $6,250,000 of Water. New York. Nov. 23.—William M. Ivins, while Investigating the affairs of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit com­ pany for the public service commis­ sion Friday, declared that Mayor Tom L. Johnson of Cleveland and bls friends, who formerly owned the Nas­ sau Electric Railway company of Brooklyn, had watered Its stock to the extent of >6,250,000 and then sold It to the Brooklyn Rapid Transit com­ pany. This was alleged to have taken place la a reorganization of the Nas­ sau company in January, 1899. Accusation by Ivina. Questioning Timothy S. Williams, vice president of the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company, about the reorgani­ zation of the Nassau company, Mr. Ivins said: "On that reorganization I find that they Increased their bond Issue, which had theretofore been >5,500,000, by an additional >8,946,960. They made on entirely new issue of preferred stock of >6,000,000, they theretofore having no preferred stock, and to the theretofore existing >6,000,000 of common stock they added >2,500,000, making a total of new issues of >17,946,960, and your acquisition was after this increase of capitaliza­ tion. Can you tell me what these new sacuritlss were Issued for?" William* Trie* t* Explain. Mr. Williams said an explanation of the transaction was given in an agree­ ment which Mr. Ivins had,xbut this was not read. Mr. Williams also con­ tended that the Brooklyn Rapid Transit company, if it had bought >6,250,000 of water, had subsequently squeezed It out. "I cannot agree with you," said Mr. Ivins. “It looks to me like a plaii case of stock watering, and the con; pany had no right to charge that >6 000,000 on its books to the cost an i equipment of the road. It was wron: in principle, and If it wasn't then against the law. the law ought to be amended so os to make such a trans­ action Impossible.” CLINTON BANK IS BOBBED Achievement* of the Famous London Chemist Are Recognized.

NEWS OF THE STATE MRS. SARAH 1 W1N0R0M RcCORD OF A WEEK’S HAPPEN­ INGS IN MICHIGAN. GAME WARDENS’ TRIALS Revolvers Drawn -In Sea Battla—Upper Peninsula Hunters Lansing.’—Deputy Attorney Gen­ eral Chase has formally notified the board of ■ state auditors not to pay the claims of county agents for acting as "flrat friend" to convicts. This is why he did it: The last legislature enacted a jaw providing that county agents may act aa first friends of non­ resident convicts in the prisons of Michigan who may wish to avail them* selves of the privilege of the parole law. Members of the pardon board fa­ vored the law for the reason that con­ victs from other states serving sen­ tences in Michigan prisons are often unable to secure paroles because they have no acquaintances in the state who may be Induced to guarantee their good behavior' and the observ­ ance of the conditions of their release. The new law provides that county agents acting In the capacity of first friend may bo compensated at the rate of one dollar a.month for their serv­ ices for each convict. Before the law was passed the attorney general's de­ partment was consulted and it was held that such a statute would amount to .a discrimination against Michigan convicts, and was therefore class legis­ lation. The law went Into effect the last of September, and It is under­ stood that certain county agents have made arrangements to become "first friend” to as many nonresident con­ victs as possible, and thereby secure liberal, compensation from the state. Deputy Attorney General Chase is de­ termined that the law shall not be given effect and his notification to the board of state auditors is the first step taken toward contesting the stat­ ute. —Tfi« Strenuous Life.

A Manila rope, properly laid and lubricated, is as strong, weight for weight, as steel: that is. a steel rod weighs about eight times as much as a manila rope of the same diameter, and has about eight times the strength, the strengths being propor­ tioned to the weights. When used for transmission purposes it has been found that a manila rope one inch in diameter is equal to a double leather belt two five-eights inches in width, so that three such ropes are very □early equal to an eight-inch double belt. A two-inch rope, says Cas­ sler's Magazine, will transmit as much power as a ten-inch leather belt, while the loss from stiffness and creep are estimated as only about onehalf with the rope what they-are with the belt.

If we carry the largest stock of the latest and best assorted Holiday Gifts in all the vari­ ous lines we handle with which you are fami­ liar, and our prices are no higher and invari­ ably lower than elsewhere, and we are the only firm in a position to make good a guarantee, especially on Watches and Jewelry, as we al­ ways have had a first-class jeweler and always expect to have. If these things are true, do you feel justi­ fied in buying elsewhere, or in sending out of town for the goods we can supply you with? And at the same time yon pay no more, if as much, to us; besides you can examine the goods and bring them back if not as repre- sdnted. Now, “honor bright.” don’t you think you ought to encourage us to carry just as large a stock as we possibly can? because it is to your. advantage, as you surely get better prices when we buy in larger quantities, besides yon have a much larger assortment to choose from. Now this year we started ont early to carry Ont all these things and are now ready to display our Christmas goods for your in­ spection. We claim much more than ever before for our assortment both in quantity and quality. All we aek of you is just to call and look us over to satisfy yourself. Compare the size and quality of our stock as well as our prices. And if you feel that our efforts are worthy of your patronage we will appreciate your favors and treat yon the best we can. Here are a few of the lines we are espectally strong on this year: Jewelry, Watches, Cut Glass, real Hand- Painted China.

He said in part that a corn crop was the most profitable crop that a fanner could raise, and if, properly cribbed he though it would cure even if it was soft. Several others gave some useful hints. Mr. Kent related a very laugh­ able incident, He said he thought corn would yield better if planted three feet apart. • Harry Jewell recited a-very pleasing recitation about a boy learning to smoke and then his parents would not let him.

Do not miss literary Friday eve*tag. December 6. The seventh grade has been study­ ing about the Milky Way. A new pupil, Emma Sibley, entered tbe fifth grade last'Monday. Mrs. Fuller and Mrs. Calhoun vis­ ited the high school Tuesday. The kindergarteners b-sgan their Christmas sewing Tuesday morning. Commence the holidays right by attending “The Deacon” December ‘The best and most interesting game of football ever played in Nashville was that of Tnanksgiving day be­ tween Nashville and the Lansing Athletic club. Nashville won the toss, chose the west goal, kicked off to Lansing, held the capitol city boys for downs, secured the ball and by fast and brilliant work carried the ball over for a touchdown in about three minutes of play. Toward the closeof the first half, Giddings broke through Lansing's line, intercepted a forward pass just as it left the play­ er's hand and run thirty yards for the second touchdown, neither goal being kicked. Score, Nashville, 10; Lansing, 0. Nashville’s lade of practice told on the boys in the second half and they failed to score, although Kleinhans broke away for a long run for a touch­ down, which was not allowed. Lan­ sing could not get across the line for a touchdown, but kicked a pretty field goal, leaving the score at the finish 10 to 4 in Nashville's favor. The game was lightning fast throughout, but-exceptionally clean and free from roughing. Examinations for removal of con­ ditions will be given Friday, DecemClaud Marshall, Russell Marble and Corl Brattin visited high scho'ol last Wednesday.

Deafness Cannot be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf­ ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of tlie Eustachian tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound as imperft ctjhearing, and when it is entirely dosed, -deaf­ ness is the result, and unlesss the inflammation can be taken out .and this tube restored to its normal condi­ tion, hearing will be destroyed for­ ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. * We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hdl’s Catarrh Cure.

To those who wish to take up a practical course with the intention of becoming a trained nurse the asylum offers advantages equal to any hospital. Attendants are at once tilaced in the training school where ectures are given by competent in­ structors, and they also get the practical part by taking care of the sick, where with a patient population of over 1800 people some are afflicted with nearly all known diseases.

ROSCOE the state is demanding that provision be made in the revised constitution for a county auditor, who shall be the executive officer of. the board of supervlsors and who shall be clothed with authority to supervise the ac­ counts of all county officers. Differ­ ences of opinion exist as to whether the county auditor should be elected or appointed by the supervisors or circuit judge. Some contend 'that a much better fitted man would be se­ cured If tbe appointment were vested in the circuit judge, while on the other band tbero la a movement bn foot to divorce the judiciary from politics aa much aa possible by taking away all appointing power from the circuit judges. As a business proposi­ tion, Houghton county is perhaps the best county in the state, for. the very good reason that the biggest] business men in the county accept places on the board Of supervisors and devote enough of their time to secure the results that accrue from business management. In Houghton, the monthly meeting of the board never lasts more than two hours. When it comes time to make up ■ the annual budget the finance committee of the board prepare*; it In advance and when the supervisors meet they have something concrete to act upon and, Instead of spending a month drawing pay, they dispose of their business In one day. Furthermore, the Houghton supervisors get monthly reports from all the county officials whose accounts are examined by a committee of the board, which regards tbe work as part of its duty. With this constant check, the services of expert accountants to look over the books :for a series of years are not required. The same system, is followed in other mining counties of the upper peninsula. In many Instances officials of the mines sit as supervisors. The statement may be made that the mining com­ panies have seflsh motives, but be that as it may. they give the county a business administration. Draft of Ownership Clause. Following Is the draft of the mu­ nicipal ownership provision prepared by the subcommittee of the general committee on cities and' villages, and which the«latter has taken up for con­ sideration. "Cities having a population of 200,000 or more, may provide by local legislation for acquiring, owning and operating public utilities. When such city is authorized as provided herein, to acquire or operate any pub­ lic utility, it-may issue its bonds therefor, provided that such bonds shall not impose any liability upon such city, but shall be secured only upon tbe property constituting such public utility, including the franchise, stating the terms upon which, tn case of foreclosure, the purchaser may operate the same, which franchise shall in no case extend for a longer period than 20 years from the date of the sale on such foreclosure. In ad­ dition to such legislative and adminis­ trative powers as may be conferred by this constitution, any city or village may acquire and maintain such public utilities as may be necessary for the production and distribution of water, light, heat and such power as may be incidental thereto, and may sell th • surplus produced In excess of the needs of the municipality to consum­ ers within or without the territorial limits of such city or village. No city or village shall be authorized to acquire, maintain or operate any pub­ lic utility unless such proposition shall be first submitted to the electors । of such city or village at a regular municipal election, and approved by two-thirds of the qualified electors voting at such election." Earle Proposes Clause. Highway Commissioner Earle urged that no limitation be placed in the constitution as to the amount that might be spent annually for good roads purposes, and he declared that the state could well afford to spent >1.000,000 a year to improve its high­ ways. The convention spent two hours in committee of the whole dis­ cussing the proposal providing that all bills Introduced in the legislature should be printed and in possession of the house ten days before being passed, the object being to prevent snap legislation. The . ’Mm was that if future legislatures are not to bo burdened with local legislation, all genera! bills should be printed. Ob­ jection was made that under such a proposition all bills intended to be passed would have to be printed ten days before the adjournment of the legislature. Reorganization Made Certain. Tbe state military board adopted the war department orders providing for the reorganization of the M. N. G. At­ torney General Bird notified the board that the payment of guardsmen under the new law would begin July 1, 1908. Lansing School Statistics.

LAR0E STOCKS, ’PRETTY DISPLAYS Nashville Merchi Gaail HalMay Baal* Where to Bay It. Christmas time is drawing near and weather man is giving us a touch of winter to. remind us of it. But with any kind of weather you would know what time of year it was if you had accompanied The News man on hi* annual trip to the points of holiday interest in.the village. He found in every store U;iat Christmas prep­ arations were well under way, and the general holiday atmosphere pre­ vailing permeates tne entire shopping district, showing itself not only in beautiful show windows but in lavish and pretty interior decorations as well. Nashville will fully, maintain Its Sutatlon of being a remarkable iday trading point, for the stocks are larger and better this year than over before, which is saying a great deal, and the people who always make a point of coming to Nashville to do tbeir Christmas buying will in no wise be disappointed, as they will find that Nashville merchants have anticipated their every possible desire and will be belter prepared than ever before to serve them. ■ A careful perusal of the following columns will give you an idea of the various displays and will prove of material help to you In making your selections. . the ' - ■ . ' VON W. FURNISS. We would make a mistake not to start in with this firm, as any attempt to truthfully chronicle the holiday displays would do this store a great injustice to put it anywhere in these columns but In first place. Mr. Furniss informs us that he has directed his efforts this year mainly to the selection of better and more practical gifts and that-he has been thoroughly convinced that the public are not Peeking the ciieapest things they can buy for Christmas gifts and there seems to us to Ims a great deal In that statement when you stop to think the matter over, it would be much better judgment to buy the cheapest for ourselves, if we must buy cheap, and then either make your gifts de­ sirable or refrain from giving at all. Nobody questions the fact that if they desire something to be relied upon,, especially in the line of jewelry, watches, clocks or silverware or any­ thing else theft has so many cheap substitutes, they feel safe in relying upon the representations made at this store. The toy department has been at least doubled and the most noticeable addition to the whole store is the new line of phonographs. This line was added last spring whep Mr. Furniss took the agency and since that time he has sold more phonographs than there was in all the country around Nash­ ville up to that time. Nothing that could be purchased can give so much satisfaction to so many {or the compsratively small Investment. The largest and best assorted stock of books ever brought to.town of all kinds for all ages. Copyright books that never have sold for less than *1.25 to *1.50 before have had the copyright reduced upon a limited number of each title so as to retail the same original books for 50 cents. A large number of very desirable titles are found among the reduced copy­ rights. Among many other books are found a full line of Optic’s, Hentz’s, Alger's and Mrs. Mead’s books for boys and girls. Bibles of all de­ scriptions and prices, including the vary popular red letter editions. In the jewelry department can be found all that one would expect to find in a city jewelry store except that the prices sound much better. More watches are displayed aud sold here than in any other one jewelry store in this part of the state. Everything in rings, lockets, chains, brooches, etc., the largest assortment of bracelets we ever saw anywhere; we counted three dozen that sell from 12.00 to 96.00, that is a hard assortment to equal in the country. An extra large stock of cut glass and Miss Ferris’ handpainted china that has made a repu­ tation for this store and is not excelled in Michigan. Don’t miss the line of ladies’ fancy handled silk umbrellas. It would be impossible for us to enumerate all the beautiful holiday gift* to be found in Mr. Furniss’ two stores, but we feel perfectly safe in making the assertion that you cannot afford to buy before visiting these two stores and we know, you will not be dissatisfied by the treatment you receive or the goods you may ‘pur­ chase there. Remember that this firm advertises to make everything just as represented and we are sure that no other store, especially in jewelry, has better advantages to do this as this depart­ ment is taken care of by Mr. Bement, whose ability as a jeweler and whose conscientious manner is well known to aU. ■ ■ • This fine store, on the west side of ■ Main street, between Kocher's and Cortright’s, carries a much larger stock and is in every way better equipped than ever before to supply your holiday and every day needs in their lines. They carry a fine line off groceries, a full stock of shoe* and1 the finest line of fancy china in town. In groceries, they have a full and1 complete line, in both staple and1 fancy articles, fancy canned andi bottled goods, fruits, candies,, nuts,। raisins, leas and coffee of all grades,> and absolutely the best goods for the1 money. In their shoe department will; be found a most complete stock of' shoes for men and women, boys and1 girls, from every day and work shoes1 to the finest shoe for dress occasions, a* well as a very full stock of rubbers., They also carry an excellent line of' underwear, which make* a very ap­' propriate present at about this time of the year. In fancy china, you will be surprised at the large line shown here, as well as the low prices asked for it. You will be surely able to find many articles here which will suit you and your friend, and this is an excellent place to buy it, for you wiil find that a little money goes a long way. Christmas shoppers will do well to drop into Kratt's and look around. Everything is so neat and clean that buying is a pleasure. » GLASGOW As usual Glasgow's store is jammed full of the things that make sensible Christmas presents, and he invites attention to his mammoth fur­ niture rooms whether you expect to fiurchase furniture or not, as he knows I will be a feast for the eyes, and in no other way can you keep so well posted on furniture styles. There are the newest things in furniture of all kinds, bed-room suits, iron beds, dressing tables, springs, mattresses, etc. Dining room furniture of the best makes, tables, chairs'",' side­ boards, buffets, china closets, etc. Fancy rockers, desk and office chairs, book cases, writing desks, ■ library and fancy tables, couches, daven­ ports, upholstered' chairs, pictures, frames, easels, mirrors in American and French plate pt all prices io suit all purses. Furniture for every room in the house, for cottage or mansion, for office or shpp, and every article is “guaranteed by Glas­ gow'- to be just as represented or your money back. Prompt and courteous attention to your slightest wish makes this a pleasant place to purchase. In the hardware department will be found pretty much the same state of affairs as prevails in the furniture rooms. Here will be found every­ thing good sense and good taste can expect to find in a hardware stock in line for the holiday season and the same promptness and careful atten­ tion is nolicable as in the other side of the house. The “captain” is making an effort to be at home most of the time during the holiday season and will be glad to see you, and his four able assistants will be there every minute with the smile that won’t come off and ready to look after your every want. • W. A. QUICK. Quick's South End grocery store, ably represented each week by that unique publication, the South End Breeze, will make the wind blow from the south all through the holidsy times, as it does at all other times Mr. Quick has proved himself a thorough, practical grocery man and has built up a substantial, enviable trade. It is his desire to have noth­ ing but what his customers want and he seems to have the faculty of buy­ ing to such advantage that his charges to his customers are reason­ able. When he secured the exclusive agency for Uji tea and Diamond cof­ fee he also secured the exclusive cus­ tom of many people who like good goods in these lines at reasonable prices. His line of canned goods is unsurpassed by any in town. He is all ready with lots <?f things for the holidays and although its a little fur­ ther down there, he always makes it pay you to make the trip to his store. He has a fine line of candies, nuts and fruits for the holidays. He has vege­ tables, buckwheat flour, prepared pancake flour, the very best wheat Hour, both winter and spring wheat, bacon, hams, lard, cheese, crackers and everything- in the grocery line. His telephone number, you all know, is 94, and you also know his delivery never sleeps. Don’t forget the south end grocery emporium any time; its a good place to tie to all the time. BARKER THE BAKER. Has passed his second business birthday in Nashville and the success that he has made has never been equalled by any of hiz predecessors. His business is one of which any man in his line might be proud. He is as busy as one man can possibly be, from morning until night, and every­ body connected with the place is hustling in the same way, and the business of the establishment is con­ stantly increasing. He attends strictly to his own business which he knows from beginning to end and has a fresh line of the best baked goods always on hand. He has made an extra effort this year to have the finest line of candies ever brought to Nashville, for the holiday trade; in fact his line of confectionery is as pretty as can be found in any city. He has box candies ranging in prices from five cents to *3.50. He maintains the best restaurant and short order service and his trade in this branch is growing rapidly, and when we said last year that we were confident he would con­ duct a bakery that would bo a credit to the town we did not know how well our prediction would be fulfilled. Don’t forget Barker, the' baker, in your holiday buying; he has the things that satisfy the inner man. PURCHISS A SON.

Take it all in all. you are even interesting, and—I ad­ mit—I am inclined to like you:” The tantalising tone and manner nerved him; he grasped the white hand resting invitingly on the grass, and held it firmly within his. own. "You only make sport as you did onoe before. 1 must have the whole truth.” “Oh, no; to make sport at such a time would be sheerest mockery, and I would never dare to bo so free. Why, remember we are scarcely more than strangers. How rude yo-u are! only our third time of meeting, and you will not release my hand." “Not unless I must, Naida." and the deep ringing soberness of bls voice startled the girl into suddenly uplift­ ing Tier eyes to his face. What she road there instantly changed her mood from playfulness to earnest gravity. "Oh, please do not—do not say what you are tempted to,* her voice almost pleading. "I cannot listen; truly I cannot; 1 must not. It would make us both very unhappy, and you would be sure to regret such hasty words.” "Regret!" and he yet clung to the hand which she scarcely endeavored to release, bending forward hoping to. read in her hidden eyes the secret her lips guarded. " "Am I, then, not old enough to know my own mind?" "Yes—y<-e; I hope so. yes; but It is not for me; it can never be for me— X am no more than a child, a homeless waif, a nobody. You forget that I do not even know who I am. or the name 1 ought rightfully to bear.

It is you I love—love forever. Do you un­ derstand me, darling? I love you! I Jove you!" For an Instant—one glad. weak, helpless, forgetful Instant—she did not see him. did not even know Her­ self ;5the very world was lost. Then ■ho awoke as if from a dream, his strong arms clasped about her, his Bps upon hers.. “You must net,” she sobbed. ”1 tell you no! I will not consent; I will not be false to myself. You have De right; I gave you no right.” He permitted her to draw away, and they stood facing each other, he eager, mystified, thrilling with pas­ sion almost beyond mastery, sho trem­ bling and unstrung, her cheeks crim­ son, her eyes filled with mute ap»«*1 I , I : “Then you do not love me?" She paused, afraid of the Impulse that swept her on. " Perhaps,” - the low voice scarcely audible, "I may love you too well.” "You mean there ist somethingsome person, perhaps—standing be­ tween?" She looked frankly at him.. “I do mean just that I am not heartless, and I sincerely wish we had never met; but this must be the end." The end? And with no explonation?” "There is no other way." He could perceive tears In her eyes, although she spoke bravely. "Nor can I ex­ plain. for al! is not clear to me. But this I know, there is a barrier between us insurmountable ;\not even the pow­ er of love can overcome it; and I appeal to you to ask me no more.” It was impossible for him to doubt her sober earnestness, or the depth of her feelings; the full truth in her words was pictured upon her face, and in the pathetic appeal of her eye. She extended both hands. "You will forgive me? Truly, this barrier has not been raised by me." He bowed low, until his lips pressed the white fingers, but before he .could master himself to utter a word in re­ ply, a distant voice called his name, and both glanced hastily around. "That cry came from the valley,” he said. "I left my horse tied there. I will go and learn what It means." She followed him part of the way through the labyrinth of underbrush, hardly knowing why she did so. He stood alone upon the summit of the high bluff whence he could look across the stream. Miss Spencer stood below waving her parasol frantically, and even as he gazed at her, his ears caught the sound of heavy firing down the valley. CHAPTER XXII. Plucked from the Burning. That Miss Spencer was deeply agi­ tated was evident at a glance, while the nervous manner in which she glanced In the direction of those dis­ tant gunshots, led Brant'to jump to the conclusion that they were in some way connected with her appearance. "Oh. Lieutenant Brant," she cried, excitedly, "they are going to kill him down there, and he never did it at all. I know he didn't, and so does Mr. Wynkoop. Oh, please hurry! No-, body knew where you were, until I saw your horse tied here, and Mr. Wynkoop has been hunting for you ev­ erywhere. He is nearly'frantic, poor .man, add I cannot learn where either Mr. Moffat or Mr. McNeil is, and I just know those dreadful creatures will kill him before we can get help.” "Kill whom?” burst in Brant, spring­ ing down the bank fully awakened to the realization of some unknown emergency. "My dear Miss Spencer, tell me your story quickly if you wish me to act. Who is in danger, and from what?” The girl burst into tears, but strug­ gled bravely through with her mes­ sage. , "It'a those awful men. the roughs'’ -*nd rowdies down in Glencaid. They say he murdered Red Slavin, that big gambler who spoke to me this morn­ ing. but he didn't for I saw the man who did, and so did Mr. Wynkoop. He jumped out of the saloon window, his hand all bloody, and ran away. But they’ve got him and the town marshal up behind the Shasta dump, and swear they're going to hang- him If they can only take him alive. Oh, just hear those awful guns!" "Yes, but who is it?*’ "Bob Hampton, and—and he never did it at all." Before Brant could either move or speak, Naida swept past him, down the steep bank, and her voice rang out clear, insistent. “Bob Hampton attacked by a mob? Is that true. Phoebe? They are fighting at the Shasta dump, you say? Lieut. Brant, 1 you must act—you must act now, for my sake!” • She sprang toward the horse, nerv­ ed by Brant’s apparent slowness to re­ spond, and loosened the rein from the scrub oak. “Then I will go to him, even if they kill me also, the cowards! ’’ But Brant had got his head now. Grasping her arm and the rein of the plunging horse, "You will go home," he commanded, with the tone of mili­ tary authority. “Go home with Miss Spencer. All that can possibly be done to aid Hampton I shall do—will you go?” She looked helplessly into his face. "You—you don't like jilmj’ she falter- I DO NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSES SICKNESS CASTOR IA The Kind You Have Always Bought [ | ■ I Auction Sale 1 Tuesday, December 17, 1907, teller T’ "Just this,” and Brant squarely fronted the man, his vUce ringing like steel. ‘Tye seen mobs before to-day, and I’ve dealt with them.

Honest men get mixed up In such affairs, but they are invariably inflamed by some low­ down sneak with an ax to grind. I confess I don’t know all about this Colton, but I know enough to say he Is an army deserter, a liar, a dive­ keeper, a gambler, and. to my certain knowledge, the direct cause of the death of three men. one a soldier of my troop. Now isn't he a sweet speci­ men to lead in the avenging of a sup­ posed crime?” Whatever else Colton might have failed in, be was a man of action. Like a flash his gun flew to the level, but was instantly knocked aside by the grizzled old miner standing next him. "None o’ that, Ben," he growled, warningly. “I don’t never pay to shoot holes in Uncle Sam.” Brant smiled. He was not there just then to fight, but to secure delay until bls own men could arrive, and to turn aside the fierce mob spirit if such a result was found possible. “1 really would enjoy accommodat­ ing you.

In Arriving at the Rendezvous—The Warships Make a Fine Sight. Old Point Comfort, Va., Dec. 10.-— The double-starred flag of blue, em­ blem oj the commander-in-cblef of the Pacific-bound battleship fleet, was flung to the breeze from’ the main truck of the battleship Connecticut Monday, and Rear Admiral Robley D. Evans formally assumed his position' as leader of the greatest naval move­ ment In ths history of the American people. Monday was assembly day for the fleet, which Is to set sail next Mon. day, and of the 16 great fighting ma­ chines- ordered to skirt the southernmoet end of all America and inaugu­ rate a new naval era In the Pacific ocean, there were but two laggard? These were the 16,000-tonnqd Minne­ sota, flagship of Rear Admiral C. M. Thomas, cammander of the second squadron of the fleet; and the Ken­ tucky, whose paltry 11,500 tons rele­ gate her to a position at the end of the armored column. The Kentucky also Is the oldest ves­ sel among the 16, having been laid down with her sister, the Kearsarge, In 1898, at the Tieginning of the war with Spain. Nine years ago is a long period In modern battleship construc­ tion, so great have been the strides in American naval architecture. . Fourteen at Anchor. The Minnesota and the Kentucky are both expected to drop anchor in Hampton roads Tuesday, and then the historic fleet will be complete. The new Maine, which two short years ago Was the flagship of the commander-ln-chlef, but Is flow thrown back to eleventh place In the list, came in. making 14 battleships to anchor off here. The ships are disposed in two long Hoes leading in a crescent which be­ gins Just off the Old Point pier and points toward Norfolk. The Connecti­ cut, which Iles scarcely more than a stone's throw from the pier, heads the column nearest shore. Next to her is her sister ship, the Louisiana, the champion hard-hitting, fast-flring ves­ sel of her class, and then in turn come the Kansas and the Vermont, all regis­ tering 16,000 tons and belted with steel that is rated well nigh impreg­ nable. First Squadron Under Evans. These four vessels compose the first division of the first squadron of the fleet and are the personal charges of Rear Admiral Evans. The second di­ vision in We first squadron Is made up of the Georgia. Virginia, New Jersey and. Rhode Island. The flag of Rear Admiral William H. Emory, in com­ mand of the division, floats from the Georgia's truck. The Georgia, Virginia, New Jersey and Rhode Island are all of a type xnd with a displacement of nearly 15,000 tons each they combine the tre­ mendous force of 19,000 horses and their trial trips have all exceeded 19 knots, a speed attained by few of the heavily armored vessels of the world. Doth absentees from the fleet were in the second squadron column. Salutes for the Admiral. Admiral Evans arrived Monday morning from Washington, accom­ panied by Capt Ingersoll, his chief of staff, and Lieut. Commander Chan­ dler, his flag secretary As his flag was broken out from the main truck when he repaired aboard the Connec­ ticut, there were the customary sa­ lutes from the flagships of the various divisions and Admirals Emory and Sperry were soon en route to the flag­ ship to pay their respects.

Dec. 9.—Oscar IL. king of Sweden, died at 9:10 o'clock Sunday morning. The death of the venerable monarch occurred in the royal apart­ ment-of the palace, where, surround­ ed by the member* df his family. In­ cluding the aged queen Sophia and the crown prince, Oscar Gustave, and high ministers of state, the Inevitable end had been awaited, while oatafdd the palace great crowds stood with bowed heads and tearful eyes long after the announcement' came of the death of their well-loved sovereign. The whole country is bowed with grief, for King Oscar was something more than a ruler of his people and had endeared himself to them as an Intimate and personal friend. When the flag on the palate was dipped to half mast there was a moan of anguish from the assembled multitude and many of them cried: "Our dear old king is qead?' Gustav* V. Now King. The succession to th* throne of Sweden now passes to Oscar Opstave Adolphe, duke of Vermland, the oldest son of the late king. At a meeting of the council of state Sunday afternoon the new king took the oath of allegi­ ance under the title of Gustnve V., and •adopted the motto "With the People for the Fatherland." The princes then took the oath of allegiance and the new monarch accepted, the homage of the state officials. The fast hours of the expiring mon­ arch were passed in unconsciousness and up to the end he gave no sign of recognizing those about him. The queen was grief-stricken because he could.not bid her farewell. At 5:15 Sunday morning the gentlemen of the king's court were aroused and ordered to appear at once -In the bod chamber. The premier and foreign minister and the highest court officials, together with all the members- of the king's family, assembled there and remained at his side until the end came. Sketch of Oscar's Life. Oscar was bom January 21. 1829. He was the third son of King Oscar I., and of Queen Josephine, daughter of Prince Eugene of Leuchtenberg. and a grandson of Marshal Bernadotte. He succeeded to the throne at the death of his brother. King Carl XV., Septem­ ber 18, 1872. He was married June 6. 1857, to Queen Sophia, daughter of the late Duke William of Nassau. Four children survive him—Gustave, now king, born June 16, 1858; Prince Oscar Bernadotte, bom November 15, 1859; Prince Carl, bora February 27. 1861, and Prince Eugene, born August 1, 1865. Gustave was married Sep­ tember 20. 188L to Princess Victoria of Baden-Baden. Their eldest son. Prince Gustave, was married June 15. 1905, to Princess Margaret Victoria of Connaught. Prince Oscar renounced hia succession to the throne and mar­ ried March 15, 1888, Ebba Munck, of Fulklla Was Able and Democratic. King Oscar was called the ablest ruler of the nineteenth ^entury and the most democratic king that ever lived. He never made any attempt to conceal the humble origin of his famlly and whenaver he traveled to the south of France he made It a point to visit the little house at Pau where his grandfather was bora. The late king was distinguished in philosophy, having received degrees from so many universities of Europe that he <nay fairly be called, so far as degrees indicate, the most learned man in Europe. He was an author, a. translator, a learned man In political economy and the science of govern­ ment, a musician, an historian and a playwright. AH the great master pieces of literature, historical, philo-, Bophlcal and religious, he translated' Into Swedish. One of his novels, the one which has become tbe most wide­ ly known of his works of fiction, deals with the rise of his own family of 'Bernadotte and the accession to the throne of Sweden of hl* grandfather. With an his accomplishment as a scholar. King Oscar was a brave man and wore upon his breast on state oc­ casion* a medal bestowed on him by the French government as a reward for two heroib deeds performed when he was a young man.

Natural Gas Under State? Is there natural gas underneath the surface of this portion of Michigan? It has long been believed that there is a bountiful supply. It was while the Eureka Stesl & Iron company, of Wyandotte, was boring for gas that the Immense salt beds were discov­ ered. Holies were again raised, as natural gas was found 100 feet below the surface by S. K. French, expert water well driller, on the country place of E. H. Houghton on the Shore Lino road to Mt. Clemens, 13 miles east of the city hall.

No Aid for ,Church School*. The constitutional convention has refused to sanction a proposition to aid parochial schools with state money. The matter came up tn the discussion of the bill of ‘rights, the closing phrase of which reads: "No person shall pay tithes, taxes or other rates for the support of any minister of the gospel or teacher of religion." Delegate Adams wanted to cut out the last four words In order that state aid might be extended to parochial schools. Sentiment was almost unani mous against the proposition.

And the populace were also beginning ’to exhibit no small degree of Interest in the weighty matters which concerned the fast-culminating love affairs of Miss Spencer. Almost from her earliest arrival the extensive cattle and mining interests of the neighborhood became aggres­ sively arrayed against each other; and now. as the fierce personal rivalry be­ tween Messrs. Moffat and McNeil grew more Intense, the breach per­ ceptibly widened. While the infatua­ tion of Rev. Mr. Wynkoop for this same fascinating young lady was plainly to be seen, his chances In the race were not seriously regarded by the more active partisans upon either side. The regular patrons of the Miners’ Retreat were backing Mr. Moffat to a man. while those claiming beadquar­ ters at the Occidental were equally ardent In their support of the pros­ pects of Mr. McNeil.. It must be con­ fessed that Miss Spencer flirted out­ rageously and enjoyed life as she never had done in the effete east. The Rev. Mr. Wynkoop always felt serenely confident of an uninterrupted welcome upon Sunday evenings after service, while the other nights of the week were evenly apportioned be­ tween the two more ardent aspirants. On Monday, Wednesday and Friday evenings the Miners’ Retreat waa a scene of wild hilarity, for.it was then that Mr. Moffat was known to be com­ fortably seated In the Herndon parlor, relating gruesome tales of wild moun­ tain adventure which paled the cheeks 3f bis fair and entranced listener. Then on Tuesday. Thursday and Saturday nights, when Mr. McNeil rode gallant-' ly in on his yellow bronco, bedecked In all the picturesque paraphernalia of the boundless plains, revolver swing­ ing at thigh, his wide sombrero shad-, owing his dare-devil eyes, the front of the gay Occidental blazed with lights i xnd became crowded to the doors with enthusiastic herders drinking deep to the success of their representative.

SPECTACLE 18 GRAND Old Point Comfort, Va., Dec. 17.— Sixteen hard hitting steel-belted Amer­ ican battleships, gun-bristling and burly-of girth, but sparkling white in their immaculate dressings of peace, sailed away Monday under the dasxling sun of a cloudless winter sky on their famous expedition of 14,000 miles, along foreign shores and chang­ ing climes, to' th* west coast of the United States. President Roosevelt on the bridge of his cruiser-yacht, the Mayflower, personally led the magnificent fourmile line of fighting vessels during the first stage of the voyage. From the anchorage ground in Hampton Road* to the Horeahoe Bend of Chesa­ peake bay bis eagle-crested flag of blue pointed the way. Then, when the broad reaches of the sea were visible through tbe wide swung capes of Vir­ ginia, he turned aside and coming to anchorage, reviewed the passing pageant. Makf a Wonderful Spectacle. The blue of the Bky. the stretch of green sea mlles. the glistening of spot­ less hulls, the curl of foam-crested bow-waves, the cheering ot sailors afloat and friends ashore, the brehze blown strains of "Auld I-ang Syne" floating across the waters, the blare ot trumpets, the ruffle of drums, the flash of signals and tbe boom of saluting cannon marked the departure of the fleet—presenting to the people who watched a spectacle they will never Clark.

To Secretary ot the Navy Metcalf and to .others of his guests on board, he was constantly exclaiming upon the beauty and grandeur of the surrounding scenes. “Did jx>u ever see such a fleet? And such a day? Isn't It magnificent? Oughn't we all to feel proud!" and then the president had something to say of the enlisted men. In the midst of the reception to the higher officers, he sent for the coxswain of the Louis­ iana's launch and through him dis­ patched a special message of greet­ ing to that ship's crew. Start Is Auspicious. The Old Point shores and the ram­ parts of historic Fortress Monroe were lined with thousands of persons as th* fleet lifted anchor and set sail. Other thousands were gathered aboard ex­ cursion craft of all descriptions. The government pier, projecting far out into the roads at Old Point, was a living mass of humanity. In the crowd were gathered wives, sisters and sweethearts of officers and en­ listed men. all feeling the common im­ pulse of mingled admiration for tbe vast marine picture unfolded before them and the heart burnings of a long ^parting with relatives and friends. It was peculiarly fitting, therefore, that when the flagship Connecticut swept by the pier, the band assembled on the quarter-deck should play “The Girl 1 Left Behind Me," and then more plaintively came the strains of v’Auld Lang Syne” followed in turn by the "Star-Spangled Banner." It was a pretty Indication that amid the re­ grets of parting, the call of pathetic duty was at last' the one thing to-be considered. Christmas at Trinidad. . Monday night tbe 16 ships of the massive fleet, continuing in single or­ der and steaming at the uniform speed of ten knots an hour, according to or­ ders. were well down the coast to­ ward tbe treacherous waters of Hat­ teras. The first lap of their Journey will bring them to Trinidad on Christ­ mas eve, and there, in the heat of the tropics, the Christmas celebrations will be held. Hundreds of good-by telegrams were flashed to the ships by wireless telegraph as they left the roadstead and turned down the southern coast. The president, after the review at the Horseshoe waa completed, returned to Washington, the Mayflower weighing anchor for the trip up the Potomac shortly after noon. The fleet got un­ der way just after ten o'clock in the morning and less than two hours later had cleared the capes and had begun in earnest the most notable practice cruise in all naval hlatory. Train Strikes Big BowJder. Pughkeepsle, N. Y. Dec. 17.—The Chicago & St. Louis express, west bound, on the West Shore railroad, had a narrow escape from being _ wrecked and thrown into the Hudson river Monday night. The train had passed through Highland, opposite this city, and when a mile north of the station the engineer discovered a bowldej- weighing about 1,600 nounds, on the track. He put on his air brakes and reversed his engine but not un­ til the locomotive crashed into the The .speed of the train had greatly slackened, thus preventing a serious accident.

Hunro WHEN HE FORGOT Carter and Hia Locket ELL, my dear, and what did you see in New York?” said Mrs. Carter to her husband, as he unfolded bls napkin at the first meal after his return. “Oh, nothing In particular." resj»onded Carter, bringing the carv­ ing steel into ringing contact. “Had a couple of nights at the theater. Went to church on Sunday, too, and heard a capital sermon." "Make any calls?" “No. Yes. I did, too. Met Ben Gor­ don, and—who do you chink Is living in New York now? The McGoverns!" "Oh, your old friends* You saw them ?" “Yes, Gordon told me about them and we went up there together. Will you .have some white meat? Of course I had a mosr- delightful call. Mary, do you know I never wanted a picture of you so badly before?" “A picture?" “Certainly, of you and the boys. They'd never seen any of you and be­ ing naturally and kindly curious about my family they were compelled to ac­ cept my descriptions, which, it is needless to say, were of a. moat com­ plimentary character, and not calcu­ lated, I presume, to convey a clear mental Impression of the subjects." “Tinged too much, perhaps, with the color of prejudice,’’ laughed Mrs. Car ter. “At any rate, I felt that my words were entirely. Inadequate. For in­ stance, I think I said you had the blu­ est eyes, but that didn't really tell them how very—” “Yes. but, John, they are gray." “Eh—oh. well, a sort of bluish-gray, I think I -said. However, a picture ■would have been so very satisfactory at such a time. I do wish you would ha/e one taken." “I certainly will, my love. The chil­ dren and J together?” “Just the thing. Do you know, I meet no -many married traveling mcm who always have their family photo­ graphs. It's a fine idea. There’s Lead beater. Well, I met him this time twins, right where he could see them." "And they him," added his wife. ‘‘Eh? Oh, Leadbeater's all right. He doesn't need to be watch&d when away from home. Then there's Char­ lie Fromer. He has a pocket edition of hia family, which 1 understand, he hauls out and stares at on the slight­ est provocation." "What devotion!" “Oh. 1 don’t know. Don't you sup­ pose I’d do the same?" "Of course you would, dear, and it’s very sweet of you to want the pic­ ture." ■ That was a year ago. Mrs. Carter’s compliance with her husband's re­ quest took the form of a dainty golden locket, holding a charming miniature of herself and the two boys, which duly delighted Carter and which he attached to his watch chain. Carter wasn't much of a traveler. His business kept him at home the greater part of the time. The visit lo New York was, however, an annual occurrence and lasted sometimes for two weeks. Some of his friends, who unexpectedly ran across him on these occasions, reported that Carter, at his home a most dignified citizen, appear­ ed to be enjoying himself immensely in the metropolis. When he returned from his most re­ cent visit to the eastern city shortly after the holidays, his first appear­ ance betrayed to his Intimates, two of whom met hhn at the train, a recent indulgence in conviviality, nor did this condition entirely escape the notice of Mrs. Carter, who watched"him rath­ er narrowly as he greeted her with unusual effusiveness, saying as he dropped his grip In the front hall: “My? But I’m glad to get home!" , "You do look tired, dear." she, re­ marked rather unsympathetically. "Tired? Well. I should say so.

"No. It—er—rained on Sunday and I didn't go out.

December 6, an explosion in mines of the Falrmout Coal company resulted In the death of approximately 350 employes. ."Fully 250 widows and 1,000 chil­ dren are left without any means of support. The most of these families live in the company houses at Monon­ gah; the remaining families in various countries of Europe. The company has genej-ously declared that the fam­ ilies occupying its houses may remain until other provision is made for them, but operations cannot be re­ sumed at the damaged mines until these houses are available for ths new force. Many of the resident families will want to. return to their relatives In their native countries In Europe. The other resident families must seek a community In which they can darn a livelihood. . . .. ToUI of 4200,000 Needed. "As near as can be determined at thia time almost 150,000 from sll sources has been subscribed. Upon the basis' of |300 for each widow, and 1100 for each child under 16 years of age, 1175,000 will be required. At least 125,000 will be necessary to provide, on relatively the same basis, for the aged dependents of the unmarried victims, the many now unborn chil­ dren and the undoubted accessions to the married victims’ list when com­ plete information has been received. "The committee feels that a basis lower than the above will not be ade­ quate to properly care for the needs of the bereaved ones, 'and a total of >200,000 will therefore be required to carry out the relief work on this basis. "The magnitude of this disaster is too great for West Virginia to alone render all the help required. It com­ mands national attention and the com- • mlttee feels assured that its appeal will be heard and responded to by the nation. “AB checks should be made payable to the Monongah Mines Relief Com­ mittee, J.

President L. Whitney Watkins, of Manchester, in hts address to the association, touched upon the recent financial flurry, and said It was due to the era of high prices and prosperity and plunging by speculators and others. "If some of the • railroads would use the excess water in their stocks for laundry pur­ poses." said Railroad Commissioner 0. L. Glasgow, tn a talk to the asso­ ciation, "they would find it easier and pay a reasonable dividend." The com­ missioner talked nearly an hour to the farmers. Gov. Warner addressed the association. He' went over bls dif­ ferences with the "boxera," and de­ scribed his position on primary elec­ tion and other bills, saying there is no reason why telephone and tele­ graph companies should not pay taxes , on the same basis as other property. : What is CASTORIA Castoria Is a/harmless substitute for Castor Oil, Pare­ goric, Drops and Soothing Syrupr..

The state grange, with membership of 57,000, at Its annual meeting here adopted a resolution calling upon the constitutional convention now in ses­ sion at Lansing to Insert a prohibi­ tion clause tn the new constitution. Two proposals relative to the state funds were introduced. One by Dele­ gate Mead, prohibiting the depositing of such funds In any bank In which an elective state officer may be a stock­ holder and limiting the amount to 25 per cent, of the capital stock of each bank. Delegate Adams proposes that the legislature shall provide by law for deposit with the state by banks organIxed under the laws of the state. The holiday recess was fixed for the constitutional convention. Adjourn­ ment is taken on Saturday. December 21, until Monday. December 30. so that the convention could work New Year's day. The amount of work that will have to be disposed of makes that course imperative. If the proposal reported out by the committee on counties is agreed to by the constitutional convention elective county officers will be ineligible for reelection after two terms. The judiciary committee reports ad­ versely on the proposals aiming to abrogate the doctrine of contributory negligence and making such a defense a matter of fact to be decided by the jury. Proposals were reported out giving the governor power to veto specific items in appropriation bills, and also prohibiting the giving of passes to state officers, members of tbe legisla­ ture and judges of courts of record. Delegate Burton introduced a lengthy home rule proposal, which embodies woman suffrage and would permit only taxpayers to vote on prop­ ositions authorising the raising of money or pledging the credit of the municipality. The proposal came up relative to the establishment of a library in every city and township and an effort was made to provide that all fines, in­ cluding city ordinance cases, should go to the library fund. it took the constitutional convention two hours to finally decide not to change the present constitutional pro­ visions which says that the legislature may provide for indeterminate sen­ tences. Various amendments were of­ fered. but after a heated discussion they were all voted down. Company E May Be Disbanded. Inspector General Wagner, of Port Huron, and Gov. Warner are expected in Pontiac to Inspect company E of the Michigan National Guard. While here they will ask the council If It can make a donation of a piece of ground for the purpose of erecting thereon a new armory. It la declared the present armory is insufficient and that shculd the council refuse to make the donation the company will be mus­ tered out Replace Blackboards. Secretary Crampton, of the railroad commission, has sent out to tbe rail­ roads a notice calling their attention to act 142 of the public acts of 1895, which provide* for maintaining black­ boards In railway stations. The com missloners are determined that the convenience of the public demands that this statute be observed better than it has been and have also asked tbe roads to request their agents to date each bulletin every day.

For months Michigan readers have seen the constant expression of praise for Doan’s Kidney Pills, and read about the good work they have done in this locality. Not another remedy ever produced such convincing proof of merit. A. Douglass, living at 10 Budlong St., Hillsdale, Mich., says: ‘‘I have been a great sufferer from kidney trouble. My back ached constantly and any stooping or over exertion always aggravated the trouble. If I took cold it would always settle in ray­ kidneys and at these times the pain and annoyance would be most severe. My kidneys were much disordered, the secretions being very frequent in action, containing a sediment of an offensive odor and much discolored.

At Bam Singleton's there was a dif­ ferent state of things. Sam was not rich. He had a rather meager salary and lived In a small house. His wife (Copjrrtsht, by Joseph B. Bowies.) was a delicate little lady, and the# were three children. Singleton found the atmosphere of months to-day," said Mrs. Singleton, as she passed the cup of fragrant thia bouse peculiarly delightful. Bam coffee across the table ta her Aused his body.

She she gave him. “Metaphorically speaking.” explain­ spoke with an effort, and the natural pink of her cheeks had. deepened into ed Sam. with a laugh at Arthur's look of astonishment, "my pockets ail have “How so?" demanded Mr. Singleton, holes in them, so I let Ellen have tbe with a surprised lifting of his eye- handling of the -cash, and it goes twice as far as it would with me. She Is a "I have got to have—I mean I need born financier, which, sad to say, I . . • —some new clothes.

You know had come prospered, and the months I went without new bats and dresses last summer so* as to have more money to spend on my wedding clothes, and—and so I have hardly anything that Is fit to wear now," ex­ plained Mrs. Singleton. MF. Singleton made no answer to this, and bls wife fancied he was not pleased, for he continued his break­ fast in silence. When be had finished eating he took out hls pocketbook, examined tbe bills with which it deemed well filled, hes­ itated. then extracted one. and folding it, tossed It across the table. "Guess It isn't best to give you too much at a time; it might make you wasteful,” he said, with an attempt at jocularity, as be returned bls pocket­ book to hls pocket "Spend that carefully, and If It Isn't enough, you can ask me for more." Mrs. Singleton's lip quivered and her blue eyes flashed fire, as she held the bill irresolutely between her fin"Must I ask you for every dollar I need for myself, and have it doled out to me this way. with an admoni­ tion not to squander It?” she asked, trying unsuccessfully to hide her in­ dignation and speak lightly. “Of course you will have to ask for It. How am I to know you want mon­ ey if you don't ask for It?” retorted Mr. Singleton, hi* face flushing. "As for 'doling It out,* and 'admonitions,*' why, (lt Is an established fact that all women are naturally inclined to be extravagant—” "You can keep your paltry ten dol­ lars." hls wife broke in hotly. "This is the first time I have asked you for money, and it will be the last, for I will never again ask you for so much as one cent as long a* I live." “Very well," returned Mr. Singleton, icily, “you will please yourself about that. Only, let me tell you, you will never get ao much as one cent unless you do ask. You may find it a trifle inconvenient, after awhile, and change your mind.*' . Singleton decided that the best way to bring Ethel around waa to act' as though nothing had happened, so that very soon the two seemed to be ou perfectly friendly terms. Ethel knew if she went about even a little people would soon begin lb notice that she always wore the same cjpthea; and she wasn't going to have them say or hint unk1nd;things about Arthur's liberality to her. So she ceased attending church, except, on cool or cloudy Bundays, made no more calls, and always had some plausible excuse ready when her hus­ band invited her to go to entertain­ ments. So tbe summer passed. Singleton never for an Instant con­ templated the possibility of owning that he was wrong. Didn't the Bible say expressly that a woman should be aubject to her husband? Meantime it was all very annoying and uncomfort­ able. , in December Che flrm for which Sin­ gleton worked wished him to go west for them on a certain business ven­ ture. It promised to be a fine chance, for if he did well he would doubtless be promoted, with an increase of sal­ ary, on his return. So Singleton Journeyed west. He made a stop at Cleveland on the way. for he had arranged to spend a few days with his two brothers there, neither of whom he bad seen for sev­ eral years. Frank Singleton was the oldest of the three, and Arthur bad always look­ ed up to him. He was a pros]>erous business man and lived well. , "How do you manage with your wife about money matters?" he ventured one evening after dinner. "If she wants money, yon require her to make her wants known, I suppose?” "Require her to ask me for her own!” exclaimed Frank, in good-na­ tured tocorn. "Not much. 1 should think well of myself to subject my wife to such humiliation! She has as much right to what 1 make as I have. It would look pretty, wouldn't ft, for me to require her to get down on her knees and beg humbly for a dollar every time she happened to want one? Besides, no woman of spirit would stand such nonsense. My wife knows where I keep my money, and when she wants any she goes and “You Will Never Get so Much aa One Cent Unless You Do Ask.” slipped away with tolerable swiftness. Once on hls way home, however, be was seized with a fever of homesick­ ness. and the cars seemed almost to creep. He had written brief letters to Ethel during hls absence, and she had also written, but less often and mors briefly, saying-that as nothing hap­ pened. there was nothing to write. Hls last two’ letters had not been answer­ ed at all. and he felt a vague uneasi­ ness. { The long Journey was at last ended, and Singleton found himself running up the walk of his own yard. There were no lights in tbe house, but he thought little of that, for it was bare­ ly dark yet. He hastily unlocked the door with his latch key and entered. To his dismay there was nobody In any of the rooms. Half beside himself with dread, he hurried to the nearest neighbor's. Mrs. Allen responded to his imperative ring of the bell, 1 "Dq'tiail me what has happjned?'? Implored Singleton’^ hls heart standing stlH with a nameless fear. "Mrs. Singleton has been sick— "But quite sick,” raid* Mrs. Allen, she's getting better now," si tened to add. Singleton breathed again. "She got your letter asking her to see about the fire insurance on the house, end on looking at the policy she found it ran out that very night at 12 o'clock. So she set out in a pour­ ing rain to have It renewed, and her shoes were very thin and her over­ shoes leaky—” "Where Is she now?" demanded Sin­ gleton. "Her mother effme and nursed her until she was able to towel, and then took her home With her." “How long since?' "About a week ago ." It was in the middle of the fore­ noon when he entered his mother-in­ law's house. Ethel started up with a Joyful cry, and Singleton's heart smote him as he saw how thin and pale she was. “Ethel," he said at length, drswing her down on the sofa beside him. "I have a confession to make. You have been the best and dearpat wife a man ever had, and I have treated you abominably. In that disagree­ ment of ours 1 was wrong—entirely and inexcusably wrong. And 1 have been in the wrong ever since you mar­ ried me. I have wanted to have my own way in everything, and to dom­ ineer over you and be your master. But while I have been away I have had time for thinking, and I have come to see the marriage relation in a very different light When a man comes to love his wife more than himself, he no longer wants to lord It over her. He only wants to make her happy.” Ethel's eyes were full of tears. "Do you forgive me?” "I don't fee! as though there was ar.ythlng to forgive," she answered, smiling. Is nearly over and I hope it has been a happy and prosI have perous one for you nothing to say about trade, in order that my wish may be more sincere, whether you are residing here or a thous­ and miles away and a friend I sincerely wish of mine you a Merry Christmas.

A badly-shod horse is one that will perform hls work with difficulty. The cow is a machine for convert ing food into milk, and the. profits from her work are In proportion to her digestive and assimilative powers. With an increasing demand for horses on the farms where they are raised there will be leas horses to sell and consequently those sold will com­ mand a higher price. Keep on raising good draft colts. The future brood sow should show every indication of being able to prop­ erly nourish her litter. This quality is evidenced by the development of ten or twelve well-formed teats. This is quite an Important point. Before building the barn or hog house sit down and calculate where It can be placed, and how planned to be the most convenient.

Perhaps there was no away front the actual scene of hostilities who followed the operations of th» war with Spain with more in'tnrest than frail Miss Ellen Dale. MIm Dale was alone in the world. Her history was a sad one. At the dawn of the civil war she had been betrothed to a young naval officer. He left ber to become one ot the de­ voted band that went down in the illfated Cumberland. With him per­ ished algo ber brother, a fellow-officer. The double tragedy had well-nigh be­ reft her reason, leaving her after the storm with silvered hair and broken health. Her father, an army officer,emerged from the conflict only to suc­ cumb to a disease, resulting from hardships of the campaign, leaving a family of which MIbh Ellen was now the only survivor. She received a small pension from the government, which enabled her to Hve carefully under the friendly shelter of the Old Ladles' Home. • Among those In the habit of visiting the home was Ethel Vernon, the daughter of one of the trustees and a' favorite with Miss Dale. Spe was an attractive jgirl with winning ways, and a gift of sympathy which dispensed It­ self as naturally as the sunshine. Miss Dale was quick to respond to such a nature and they soon’ became warm friends. Ethel brought so much bright­ ness from the busy, outside worjd into the old lady's lonely life that it was a grief to her when the young girl, being a Red Cross nurse, was called away to tbe hospitals by the war. Deprived of these visits and driven In upon herself by the uncongenial at­ mosphere around her. Miss Dale spent much of her time in her own room. One day It suddenly occurred to her that It would be a pleasant labor to make a scrapbook of the war. In collecting and classifying the ma­ terial for her book she gained a very clear comprehension of the operations of the war, and noted many individual acts ot bravery only briefly mentioned. She also decided to write to some of the officers and ask them for their au­ tographs. When the revolt in the Philippines broke out it promised to furnish Miss Dale with more namee to add to her roll of honor. Many young officers, some already distinguished, were sett out with the new volunteer regiments to put down the rebellion. Among these was Capt. Lee Peyton, of Vir­ ginia. who bad won special mention and promotion by a daring act tn the assault upon Caney, In Cuba, the pre­ vious, summer. He had been after­ , ward attacked with fever and only re­ covered -In time to embark for the Philippines with bls new regiment, one of the first to be sent out to rein­ force Gen. Otis. 'Great Scott!” exclaimed Peyton, as he entered hls old quarters In the city. “If this isn't luxury to see a bed once more and a roof over one's head, to say nothing of getting cleaned up again after floundering In that beastly mud—Hello!” Here hls eye fell upon a letter on the table and he pounced upon it, longing for news of home. But It waa not a home letter. This la what he read after he had torn it open: . September 12, 1890.

"Jove!” he ejaculated, when he had finished the letter. "That girl's a brick and no mistake! It puts life into a fellow to feel that some in God's country know this dreary business Is not a picnic excursion. Ugh! how we all hate it!" He had lit his- pipe and was puffing at it, thoughtfully. "I'd like to see that girl.” he soliloquized; “she must know a great deal about the situation and the war; she has followed events and got her facts straight And she’s a lady, one can see. Wonder If she’s pretty, like that Red Cross nurse at Camp Wikoff, who pulled me through the Santiago fever; I owe my life to her—wish I knew where- she was now!” A few months later Capt. Peyton found himself at a hotel In New York city. After having fallen a victim to fever In Manila and been -through a very severe illness, he had been sent home on sick leave. Tbe long sea voy­ age had greatly benefited him, but he was still far from strong. He had stopped in town expecting to see an old friend, and bad Just learned that he was absent in Europe. While he was idly wondering bow he should spend the rest of the day. the bell-boy brought him a letter which had followed him from Manila to San Francisco and across the con­ tinent. It was Miss Dale's grateful acknowledgment of hls autograph and the ornament she had received. When be reached the place he was astonished to see that it was an old ladles' home. He appeared dazed for a moment-; then, recovering himself, went on and up the front steps slowly and touched the electric door-bell. "Can I see Mlns Dale’" he asked, searching for hls card. «a>«- cap, and !>eneaih that the cate, finely chiseled features of i_ „— dewoman of another generation. There was a little hectic flush In her warn cheeks which was almost youthful. All the chivalrous Instincts of the young Virginian were awakened as; he bowed over tbe slender, outstretcht-d hand: “I want to thank you. MIm Dale, for your kind and encouraging' letter; it did me no end of good, 'way off there on the other side of the globe; and I am so glad to have found you.” • . . "Won’t you sit aown?" she''asked hospitably, and she looked into his thin face and frank blue eyes with a friendly smile. ' Before Lee knew what he was do­ ing he was telling ber all about himseif. * s He did not know how long he sat there, but suddenly there came a quick rap at tbe door; then it was thrown open and a young girl, her face alight with animation, stood on the threshold. "You told me always to come to your room, Miss Dale, so I didn't wait; I wanted to—" She stopped ab­ ruptly on seeing a young man in tbe room, installed there like a privileged friend. . "Ethel; thia Is Capt. Peyton." began Miss Dale—but he had risen sud­ denly. "How do you do. Miss Vernon? How glad 1 am to meet you again!" And he spook hands with her heartily. "Miss Dale, continued, “Mias They Went Out Together. Vernon was an angel of mercy to me; she nursed me through a wretched fever at Montauk, and then she dis­ appeared before I had half thanked her.” "Capt. Peyton was not the only pa­ tient 1 had. as he seems to Imply." she said, laughing and coloring a little. They had quite a chat, and then went out together and after he had thanked.Miss Dale most earnestly for her kind reception and promised to come again. And he did come again and often; gor the gentle old lady, so intelligent and sympathetic, was a charming com­ panion. Also. It must be confessed, he was never without the hope of coming upon Miss Vernon at this pleasant rendezvous, and sometimes his perse­ verance was rewarded. Miss Dale herself was not indiffer­ ent to the romance growing up under her eyes; she fostered It in her Inno­ cent fashion till she saw it ready to bud and blossom as her own might have done—ah! so long ago. One day they called upon her to­ gether. which was In Itself unusual, aa they had hitherto maintained the appearance at least of meeting by ac­ cident They solemnly led her to the sofa, and like two culprits, knelt berant your blessing,” said Lae. "Yes,” added Ethel, sitting in a heap on the floor with her head In the old lady’s lap; "it’s all your doing. Miss Dale, for I took him only on your rec­ ommendation." "God bless yon, my dears! I am not afraid to recommend either of you. and I have no misgivings that you will not always be happy." She held a hand of each and smiled at them through the tears which slowly gath­ ered and fell. "But we have a favor to ask you. Miss Dale, a stupendous favor—you tell her, Lee, and I’ll do the coaxing.” "Well, you see,” he began, "I am going to do as father has wished, re­ sign from the army and go out to run bis ranch in Colorado for awhile. I ought to fight the remains of this beastly fever alone and . get strong enough to be good for something first; but I'm too selfisb, I want to take Ethel with me.” "You mean, sir, that I Insist on going to look after you," put in the girl. "And—well," he went on. "we want you to come, too. dear Miss Dale, to keep us both In order—" “Forever and always!" finished Ethel. "If you don't you will break my heart, break it past even Lee's mending—and you wouldn’t do thaL now. would you?" "You are like a mother to me, you know," pursued Lee, in a broken voice. “I have no other." Miss Dale gave a queer little laugh. "You want to provide a mother-in-law for Ethel T' she asked.

I-ast week I was visited by a physician who con­ ducts a high class sanitarium not far' from New York. Place for wom­ en. you know; for wealthy neuras­ thenics. "The physician wanted to ascertain why two of hls patients failed to as­ similate their nutriment. As I do in all such cases I inquired Into their history. ‘Two unhappy women, young and fair presumably, for I never met the Jadles. Two sad stories of love. One was a wife deserted by a rapBcalllon husband, without whom—had she only thought so—she was far better off. But the trouble was that she did not think so. The other was a girl disappointed because some young flirt of a boy had married another. Common cases, you see. “I found that the failure to assimi­ late nutriment vas due to the fact that there had been no flow of hydro­ chloric acid in the alimentary tract of either of tbe patients. The physi­ cian said that they were moping and pining themselves to death, literally wasting away. Medicine was useless, it seemed; food they did not digest: they were dying, as the old phrase runs, of broken hearts. “And just why? For this reason— mark it well—their mental state was accountable for what is called inhibi­ tion of certain glandular actions con­ trolling the flow of hydrochloric acid. Pyschical influences, in other words, ruled their bodily functions and this is a principle that to-day is becoming widely recognized and assumes more and more importance in the treat­ ment of cases of malnutrition. "For instance, suppose you are a business man worried by some matter or other, and you rush out to your lunch, anxious only to eat and get back to your desk. Your preoccupa­ tion and worry Inhibits'that is to say actually prevents, the flow of certain necessary gastric juices needed to digest what you eat. "Therefore you don’t digest IL hence trouble of a greater or lesser degree; progressive trouble, too, if you don’t change your ways and eat only when you ara tranquil, only when you are happy, if you can compass happiness.
