He took it with wonderful calmneaa, considering what the touch meant to him. and he returned dis­ creetly what was meant for a friendly pressure. She was so well satisfied now that she did not think it neces­ sary to telegraph to Logotheti that he might start at once, though even IS she had done so immediately he could hardly have reached Bayreuth till the afternoon of the next day but cue, when the last performance of "Parsifal” would be already going on: and she herself intended to leave on the morning after that. She walked forward in silence for * few moments, and the lights of the town grew quickly brighter. “You will come In and have some supper wiih us, of course, ’ she said presently. •Why, certainly, since you are so klnd“ answered Van Torp. “I feel responsible for your having forgotten to dine,” she laughed. "I xatst make it up to you. By this time Mbs. Rushmore Is probably wondering ■where I am." "Well,” said the American, “if she thinks I’m perfection, she knows that you’re safe with me, I suppose, even U you do come home a little late.” “I shall say that we walked home very slowly, In order to breathe the air.” "Yes. We’ve walked home very slowly.” "I mean.” said Margaret quickly, "that I shall not say we have been out towards the fields, as far as the (ate.** "I don’t see any harm if we have," Observed Mr. Van Torp indifferently. | "Harm?

"Taken note of her good advice,” he said, completing the sentence for { tar. "Exactly! Whereas nothing could be further from my intention, as you know. I’m very fond of Mrs. Rush­ more," Margaret continued quickly, in Order to get away frpm the danger­ ous subject she had felt obliged to approach; "she has been a mother to me. and heaven knows I needed one. smd she has the best and kindest heart In the world. But she Is so anx­ ious for my happiness that, whenever she thinks It is at stake, she rushes at conclusions without the slighest reason, and then It’s very hard to get them out of her dear old head!” *T see. If that’s why she thinks me perfection, I’ll try not to disappoint They reached the hotel, went up•tal-s and separated on the landing to get ready for supper. On his side of the landing, Mr. Van Torp found Stemp waiting to dress him, and the valet handed him a tele­ gram. It was from CapL Brown, and had been retelegraphed from London. "Anchored off Saint Mark’s square to-day, 3:30 p. m. Quick passage. No •top. Coaling to-morrow. Ready for •ea next morhlng.” “Stemp,” he asked, as he threw off his coat and kicked off his dusty ■hoes, “were you ever sea-sick?” "Yes, sir,” answered the admirable valet, but he offered no more informa­ tion on the subject i During the silence that followed, neither wasted a second.

"I don’t mean on a 20,G00-ton liner. Black cravat. Yes. I mean on a yacht. Fix It behind. Right Would you be sea-rick on a steam yacht?” "No, sir.” "Sure?" "Yes, sir." “Then I’ll take you. Tuxedo.” ■ “Thank you, sir.” . Stemp held up the dinner-jacket; Mr. Van Torp’s solid arms slipped into the sleeves', he shook his sturdy shoulders, and pulled the jacket down In front while the valet “settled" the back. Then he faced round suddenly, like a soldier at drill. i “All right?” he Inquired. . Stemp looked him ever carefully from head to foot in the glare of the electric light "Yes, sir." Van Torp left the room at once. He found Mrs. Rushmore slowly moving1 about the supper-table, more imposing than ever in a perfectly new black tea-gown and an extremely smart wid­ ow’s cap. Mr. Van Torp thought she was a very fine old lady indeed. Mar­ garet had not entered yet; a waiter with smooth yeliow hair stood by a portable sideboard on which there were covered dishes. There were pop­ pies and corn-flowers in a plain white jar ou -the table. Mrs. Rushmore smiled at the financier; it would hard­ ly be an exaggeration to say that she beamed upon him. They had not met alone since his first visit on the previous afternoon. “Miss Donne Is a little late;” she said, aa If the fact were very pleas­ ing. “You brought her back, of course." "Why, certainly," said Mr. Van Torp with an amiable smile. "You can hardly have come straight from the theater,” continued the lady, “for I heard the other people in the hotel coming in fully 20 minutes be­ fore you did.” “We walked home very slowly," but‘with very many rubles of such a site, which wondered where this one had been found.

Why Sperry Was Wrong Rear Admiral Sperry, whose un­ ruffled dignity and legal trend of thought has given him the reputation of a just officer, far removed from wardroom jokes, was watching with Interest a party of children who were being shown over the flagship Con­ necticut while the fleet was here. To a lieutenant who stood by his side he remarked on the intelligence the chil­ dren evinced in the questions they were asking. “Yes, sir,” the lieutenant replied. "They will tell their fathers and mothers about this for months to come,” the rear admiral went on, un­ bending a little in his interest in the children. "No, sir,” replied the lieutenant "I say they will tell their parents about this when they get home," re­ peated the admiral. "No, sir, they won’t do that” replied the lieutenant. “What do you mean?” asked the ad­ miral, turning abruptly on the young officer. “Beg pardon, sir; these are or­ phans.”—San Francisco Chronicle.

The beat form of boxing or fencing—that Is what the use of the six-shooter means. You point your fist oi your foil instinct.

Still, we thought at times that he must be try­ ing to be. To get back to njy point Mackin­ tyre was exceedingly drunk, and 1 saw that It behooved me to be careful how I answered him.

To humor him seemed best "In what sense, Macklntyre," I said, “do you mean that I am In your gar­ den? I was under the Impression that It was my garden.” "Your-r garden!" He withered me with rolling r*s. What ha’ ye done that It should be your-r garden?” "I bought it," 1 said, modestly. "Bought It!"

"Was that what ye meant?” “No," I replied. I knew he meant Celia by the woman. " ’Tls well for her! And ye may tell her from me that if I find her prowling in my garden—whether with scissors la her hand or no—I will— I will—’’ He broke off. but bls eyes looked death and destruction.

Abram Quick and wife, without doubt realized to (be fullest extent the privation incidents of pioneer life. They began house keeping in a little, eight by ten shanty, u-d for a bed Quick bored holes in the logs and ‘inserted long stakes upon which he placed boardv: a stick and mud fire place with a kettle, spider and tin oven was the cooking outfit, but for dishes she had the satisfaction of knowing that in the whole settlement there were none to compare with them; these were brought by Mr. Quick from the state of New York. ’ The dishes were shipped in a dry goods box and - for a year this box was used as their I table. Their chairs were boards | sawed square with corners rounded and stakes inserted for legs. They lived in this way for two years, when Quick built a snug frame house: the nails necessary to do this work were procured by making “black salt," carrying the same on his back to Bellevue and exchanging them for nails al 12 cents per pound. The fol­ lowing spring Mrs. Quick made maple su^ar. carrying the sap and boiling it in qmall utensils, while Mr. Quick' was engaged in cutting out three miles of road toward Hastings. By exchanging wo»k with neighbors Quick managed to clear 40 acres of his farm >>efore he owned a team. He i was a great chopper and during his I life cleared over 250 acres of heavy timber. His father, who came to live with him. was in active service for several years in the war of the■ revolution. in 1M8 their house with nearly all its contents and clothing was burned, but was immediately replaced by a modern structure. Mr. Quick later purchased a home in Nashville, where he died at the advanced age of 80 years. His wife tiled several years years later at this home at the age of Bl years. Joseph Badcock and wife were the third settlers in what was called tbe Mudge settlement, com.ng in ’39. Mr. Badcock related that when making his first trip before locating here, that one Charles Idcn accompanied him and night overtaking them they were unable to keep their bearings and de­ cided they would be obliged to camp for the night, when the slight tinkle of a cow be 11.renewed their flagging cour­ age. Mr. Badcock advised his fellow traveler to remain aa sentinel while be should reconnoiter and if possible locate the bell, which he fortunately did, finding two cowa. His call brought his companion and each took a cow by tbe tail; tbe bovines resenting such undue familiarity went speeding through tbe forest at a merry clip, which soon brought them to their owner’s, Mr. Mudge, door, where the benighted way-farers found a hearty welcome.

The suggestion has recently been made by Dr. Babcock that the solvent action of alcohol on fat can be over­ come by first adding to alcohol all the fat It will dissolve and then pouring a small quantity of this fat-saturated alcohol on the top of the fat column in the test bottle. This method of reading the fat cream testing has been In use for some time at. the Wisconsin Dairy school with very satisfactory results. The top and the bottom of the tat column appear as nearly straight lines, giving two exact points between which fat can be measured. The diagrams illustrate the differ­ ence in appearance of the top of the fat column before and after using the "Borne men., don’t you know,- said Mr. OrlHkfllton, "will step off a curb, step down about a foot and break £ leg. and then another man will fall off the top of a 17-story house and not even muss Ms clothes: and lt*a about the same way with watches. M! dropped my wateh the other day about six inches on to a thick plush carpet and It cost me >16 for repairs: when I was out walking with toy friend Bwillkwlllby this morning he dropped his watch on the sidewalk and It didn’t so much as'stop It "It sounded when it came down like a safe falling out of a high window, and it was only a two-dollar watch and I expected of course to see Bwillkwlllby just kick the fragment* off the sidewalk and pass on; but it seems that Bwfllk knew the watch better. He picked up the crystal, not •ven cracked, from where it had flown seven feet away and put that in his pocket and then he looked at the watch. "It was going all right, but some­ how tn the fall the long hand had got bent He straightened out that bent .hand with, his pocket knife so that the two pointers wouldn’t catch and then he pried off the crystal rim of the watch and put the crystal back in place and then he snapped the rim back on the front of the watch again and dropped the watch in his pocket and started on; and: “ 'As I was saying—’ he said, just as if nothing had happened.’* BOTH ENGINEERS TO BLAME Carelessness Resulted In Head-on Col­ lision, But It Only Involved Two Baby Carriages. fat-saturated alcohol. Bottle No. 1 shows the top meniscus of the fat which occupies a space between A and B of nearly one per cent, on the scale. The test of this cream could be read to 19.0, 19.5 20.0, depending on the selection of A, B, or C as the point to which the fat is read. Bottle No. 2 shows the appearance of the top of fat column after the fatsaturated alcohol has been added. The alcohol (D) makes a nearly two per cent division, or, to be exact, 1% per cent SIX CAUSES OF POOR BUTTER • • Include Improper Handling of Cows, Wrong Feed, Sanitation and * Lack of Training. । The following are some of the causes for poor quality of butter: 1. Some of the creamery managers do not instruct theh* patrons a* to tbe proper handling of their cows and the milk and cream. 2. Garlic and wild onions are re­ ported to be causes In the spring and fall of the year. 3. There 1* a lack of proper sanita­ tion on the average dairy farm, the most deficient points of which are lack of proper Light, ventilation and cleanliness of dairy barns, milking un­ clean udders with unclean hands, use of unsterile dairy utensils and im­ proper cooling of milk. 4. There is a lack of technical train­ ing in dairy lines among butter mak­ ers. which would enable them to prop­ erly grade the milk as it 1* received at the creamery, pasteurize it, make good, starter, properly ripen cream, control their overrun and instruct their patrons in methods of producing sanitary milk and create. 5. The majority of creamery men are engaged in other occupations and de­ vote only a part of their time to the creamery business. 5. The majority of creamery patron* are engaged in diversified farming, and dairying is only a side line with them. Comfort for Cows. i Cows that are given the most com­ fort with feed and shelter are the ones that produce the greatest profit The cow naturally likes to He down for rest wMle she is chewing her cud. She will lie down in her stall, whether it is clean and comfortable or not Plenty of good bedding will make It comfortable and help to keep it clean. Arrange now to have enough good bedding for the cows to last all win­ ter. It is not only good for the cows, but it absorbs rich liquid* and la one of the greatest means of making the farm fertile and highly productive. Sanitation In Dairy, Good sanitation is more and more coming into practice in modern dairy­ ing. Build a sanitary barn, If you can, and, M you cannot, then remodel tbe cow stall* *nd make them aa comfort­ able and sanitary a* possible. Floors that can be kept dry and (dean and walls and ceilings that de not catch dirt ar are easily cleaned and plenty at light and veaxllaUce are eaeectlsls for good dairy stable ssmtution. The wark may Mj done a little at a time. PESSIMIST TOLD THE TRUTH LUCK Head-on collisions .on railroads are commonly caused by disregard of sig-, nals; this head-on collision on a side­ walk was due to quite another cause. It wa* between two .baby carriages, the engineers being two mothers, and each vehicle containing one small pas­ senger. These two baby carriages In a shop­ ping street were being propelled from opposite directions on the same line. Usually in such circumstances baby carriages turn out to pass when they meet, but on this occasion the two mothers propelling the baby carriages had both become engrossed in the dis­ play in a shop window they were pass­ ing and so engrossed they both kept on advancing, with no thought of what they were doing, with the space be­ tween the carriages steadily narrow­ ing, narrowing, narrowing, until the first thing you know, kerbunk! They bumped right into each other in a headon collision. Both engineers had been so wrapped up in what they saw in tbe window that they had both been moving very slowly and so no serious damage was done, and now with their Attention brought back by the shock of the col­ lision they both smiled and pulled their carriages back enough to free the Interlocked wheels and then each turned out and passed on. Mr. Harriman’s Ambassador. "Mr. Harriman, for all his wealth, was not purse proud,” ^ald a New York broker. "Yet he thought a lot of money. He used to- tell, with a good deal of sympathy, a story about the Russian ambassador to the court of Louis XIV. "Louis XIV., playing cards at Ver­ sailles, dropped a franc on the floor and stooped to look for IL Then Mr. Harriman’s Russian ambassador, who was very rich, said with a scornful laugh: "’Let me assist your majesty.’ "And he took out a 1,000-franc note, lighted it., and held it near the ground for a torch.” Preaches Good Sermons at 99. It is a really marvelous thing that a clergyman who has entered upon his hundredth year should still be at work In his parish and still able to preach to hi* people. Rev. Prebenairy Hutchinson, vicar of Biurton, Stoke-on-Trent, has achieved both these deeds. He has been preaching on each Sunday this year at the morn­ ing service, good, sensible, earnest extempore sermons. It seems like going back to very old times when we remember tbat he took his degree from All Souls, Oxford, in 1833. He has lived in the reigns of five sover­ eigns of England.—The Gentlewoman. Had Right to Use Bayonet The question of a soldier's right to use hi* arms when attacked by a civ­ ilian wa* raised in Geneva recently, when Joseph Amstutz, a Swiss soldier, was acquitted by a military tribunal at Lucerne for the murder of a farmer named Bless. They had quarreled at a ball, and the fanner, who went out and armed himself with a pitchfork, returned and slightly wounded Am­ stutz. The soldier, who wa* armed with Ms rifle, thereupon fixed his bay­ onet and drove it through his adver­ sary's body. The court held that Am•tut* had justifiably acted in self-de­ fense.

Deacon rosier $ Grab Bag M WM e Big BurpftM to AU Present The proprietor of the corner grocery had just Mdden the cheese and put the cracker barrel behind the counter in anticipation of the usual Saturday night crowd, when Bam Stiles saun­ tered in with Ms molasses jug and Kerosene can. "Hallo, Sam,” cried the proprietor in a glad hand voice. "How’s things down your way? By ther way, Sam, what was goin* on at ther church fair Thursday night? I bear as how Deacon Foster got all excited like an' said lhet while prayin' wa* all right there wa* times when It wouldn’t fill ther bill like good ole cusstrn'r* * "He was goin’ some," answered Sam with a reflective smile, "and fer a wMle everybody waa kind o' feared thet he would bust ther harness or dish a wheat Ta see ther deacon Is full o' schemes fer collectin’ money fer ther church, an’ when It was kind o’ noised around the he was goin’ ter spring somethin’ new at ther fair everybody Mked fer ther town halL "Purty soon ther deacon come In with Ms new scheme, which looked for al! the world like a two-bushel bag o’ pertaters, an' after ther par­ son had made a few remarks fer ther benefit o’ their sinners what was still holdin* back, ther deacon stepped up on ther platform. ’ ’’ ‘Dear brothers an’ beloved sisters,’ said he in Ms boss tradin' Voice. *1 hev arranged somethin’ new fer your edification an’ pleasure an’ I hev every reason ter believe thet it will be ther sensation o' ther evening. In this bag are several carefully wrapped [tack­ ages, an’ fer ther small sum o’ five cents ye will bo permitted ter grab any one ye like, wMch o’ course must be opened in full view o’ ther audi­ ence. All ther packages is useful as well as ornamental, an* some o' them will make ye feel like claspin’ hands an’ singin' songs o' praise. Now then, who will be the first to take a pack­ age from ther grab bag?' "Ail hands kind o* balked bashfullike fer a while, but purty son SI Gimp was coaxed ter start ther game, and from ther gingerly way thet he picked out one o* ther packages ye might hev thought he was monkeyin’ with a hornet's nest Si wouldn't open it, an' Mandy, thinkin’ thet it might be candy, got on ther job heraelf. Ln jes* two seconds she bad ther paper tore off, an' Instead o' candy she found she had a nursin' bottle like mother used ter use. First she blushed, then she turned red, and then she blashed again. "In ther meantime ther Ladles' aid acted as if they was shocked, an' ther parson glanced at ther deacon an’ said be was surprised. Ther deacon said he was surprised, too, an' offered a pan o' scrapple when he killed bogs to anyone who would tell him how ther nursin' bottle got inter the bag. "Nobody made a bld fer ther pan o* scrapple, an' when ther deacon h;.d argued himself inter good standin’ agin an’ Mandy found she wasn't half as mad as she thought she was, the grab bag game went on. Ther parson put up five cents an* made a grab, an’ so did one o’ ther Ladies' aid an' Dave Sleeper. All three o’ them started ter open ther packages at the same time, an’ when ther returns was count­ ed ther parson bad a half pint o' whisky, ther Ladles' aid sister had a deck o’ cards, an' Dave Sleeper had a lot o' poker chips. “Well, sir ye jes oughter seen thet crowd. Ther nursin’ bottle was bad enough, but half pints an' pbker was exceedin’ ther speed limit, an* ther way them distracted sisters tried to throw a 10-borse power faint on five pounds o’ steam was a sight ter see, even if ye had ter take a knothole in ther fence instead o’ ther grandstand.

"A* soon aa be was able to move without help ther parson made an­ other dive fer ther grab bag without puttin’ up ther nickel an’ out come more chips, more cards an’ another half pint or two. Then the parson had a few tMngs ter say thet didn't include ther Doxology or Benediction, an* told the deacon in plain words thet he was a bum citizen to talk about savin* sinners. TMs made ther deacon as hot as the middle of Au­ gust "He declared thet what he put In thet bag was Testaments, candy, an that some dod-blasted heathen thet he was goin’ to wallup first an’ fergive after­ ward, had played a joke on him.

Sam,' says Charity in This World.. There Is, and Much of It, But Truly There Might Be More. A dirty-faced little lad with' tat­ tered garments wandered Into a dairy, lunchroom and walked up and down between the long rows of chairs. He was probably five years old. His lit­ tle bare feet were of the color of black loam and his face and hands were not much better. Under one arm he carried a bundle of papers. In the free hand be held a dilapidated cap. bis little bare bead significant of the teaching of a mother. He was too bashful to call out his wares, as the seasoned urchin* of the street do. For all that his own voice amounted to, the pink extras under bis arm might have been as dull and uninteresting as the history of the paleozoic age, but he had a mission to perform, and timidly his dirty little’ feet took him along the rows of chairs where business men wore hurriedly devouring their ham and eggs and gulping down their coffee. Wistfully the little newsboy gazed on the lunch, plates. His eyes were bright and his countenance was good. A big, fat man looked scornfully at him and the cap went up to hl* mouth as though he would make it do duty for the ham and eggs for which he longed. A stern-looking woman who was eating ice cream leveled her eye­ glasses at the Intruder and his steps quickened. The journey among the one-armed lunch chairs was hardly half com­ pleted when a white-aproned sentinel of tbe beans and aandwlches stole noiselessly from his place behind the counter. "Please, mister. I want—please, mis­ ter,” stammered the dirty little fiveyear-old.* “Beat it, I say; beat it.” The five-year-old vanished into the night crowd on the street*. “Maybe there’s charity in the world," said the pessimistic dyspeptic who wae "making merry" over a bowl of bread and milk, "but It takes a ----- of a lot to bring it out”—In­ dianapolis News. NO CAUSE FOR EXCITEMENT Cleveland Man with Money Literally “Coming His Way" Simply Waited for It He must have been the most im­ passive man In town. It was on the last windy day. Hats were blowing up and down across Superior avenue. He was standing near tbe entrance to tbe arcade. Beside* the hats a crisp twodollar bill had slipped from its moor­ ings somewhere and was fluttering across the street in the direction of the arcade entrance. The Impassive man—he wa* neatly dressed and prosperous looking—saw It coming. Did he get excited and rush after the bill in an avaricious and un­ dignified manner? Answer; he did not He stood quietly in his tracks await­ ing it* approach. When it had flut­ tered to hi* feet, unobserved by other pedestrians, the impassive, unexcltable nnn reached down leisurely and pick­ ed it up, glanced at the numeral In tbe corner casually, stuffed It into hi* trousers pocket and went on down the street He saw no occasion for making a spectacle of himself just because money was coming his way.—Cleve­ land Plain-Dealer. Few Women Stop to Consider Trifles. If every woman stopped when she makes up her mind to buy a thing and asked herself: "Is It practical, will it wash, and will it wear, is it worth the price?" many concerns now prosper­ ous and flourishing would have to go out of business. But the average woman does not do ber shopping in that way. She sees something that she likes, something pretty, something that takes her fancy, and she buys it Arfd many of the shops where fancy trifles are to be had count upon this as one of their surest sources of big receipts. Like the man who drinks —It is not what he eat* that cost* the money, it is what he drinks. And with womankind in their dress, it is net the staples of life which cost the most, it is the luxuries. Not at All Superfluous. A Northumberland (Eng.) widow, claiming money for the loss of her husband under the workmen's com­ pensation act seems not to belong to the superfluous class. The' judge be­ fore whom the case was brought an­ nounced that he would hear It In a private room. Tbe newspaper men were shut out. The judge subse­ quently explained to the reporters that he thought it undesirable to ad­ vertise to the public the fact tbat a nice looking widow had received a considerable sum of money. The re­ porters argued that the widow might think she bad a grievance at being deprived of advertisement "Perhaps so," replied the judge, "but men might want her money.” Smokeless Until Kience discovered a way to construct the Automade Smokeless Device, and make it completely dependable, all oil beaters had one common great fault—smoko.

Verses 13-14—Why did Jesus want to be baptised? What reason is there for the opin­ ion that John’s refusal to baptise Jesus was a reasonable position to take? Verse 15—Is baptism essential to salvation and if not, what Is Its pur­ pose? Repentance seems to have been a necessary step to John’s baptism, did Jesus need to repent? Verses 16-17—What evidence Is there that any person but Jesus saw the opening heavens, the Holy Spirit, or heard the voice from heaven? If a few of those present, who were spiritual, saw and heard these things, is there any evidence to show that the multitude did also? Verse 1—Why did the Spirit lead Jesus Into the wilderness? What reasons are there to believe tbat temptation was, or was not, es­ sential for the spiritual development of Jesus? Is temptation necessary, or a part of God's educational process for all of us? Give your reasons. How much virtue would there be in doing right, If there were neither temptation nor opportunity to do wrong? (This question must be an­ swered in writing by members of the club.) Verse 2 —Why did Jesus fast and what is the general effect ot fasting upon spiritual life? If Christians follow the example of Jesus in tbe matter of fasting, what results would probably follow? Give a reasoned opinion as to whether Jesus would probably feel the pangs of hunger during the ecstasy of lhe fast? What are the limits of the rule that reaction generally follows exaltation, and state whether Jesus waa likely passing through this reaction when he was “an hungered”? Verse 3—To what part of the nature of Jesus did the Devil make his first appeal? Give your reasons for your opinion as to whether physical temptations arc as numerous, or dangerous as spiritual temptations? Verse 4—What woulfr Have been the moral quality of the act V Jesus had made bread out of stones? In what sense do good man live by the -word of God? Verse 5—Did Jesus go bqrtily Into the city, and if not. what did taka place? What are the reasons to believe that the mental temptation, would be as powerful as If It had been physical­ ly performed? Verses 6-7—What dees this second temptation appeal to? Are there any exceptions to the rule that a mau of God will never go con­ trary to God's established laws? What is it to tempt God? . Verses 8-11—What method did the Devil adopt to give Jesuj the most axtensive view of his kirfftpm? What are “the kingdoms of the world” which the Devil controls? How could the Devil have given Jesus what he promised? Do Angels always minister to those who successfully oppose the Devil?

Knights of Pythias,- and their families and folends. It was one of those rare occasions on which everything passes off exactly as planned and to the complete satisfac­ tion of the participants and their guests. About eighty people were present on the occasion, which was opened in regular form, after which Mrs. W. A. Smith called to.the chair Mrs. Fred Jenne of Eaton Rapids, Grand Man­ ager, who installed the new officers, as follows: P. C.—Mrs. Carrie Munroe. M. E. C — Mrs. Myna Wade. M. E. S.—Mrs. Melissa Roe.

The officers-elect were escorted into the temple by the degree staff, accom­ panied by .Miss Vada Feighner as Flower Maiden and Misses . Norma Vincent. Pauline Furniss. Catherine Burd and Minta Marple as conductors of the tribute of flowers. The officers were formed into a semi-circle and were crowned with floral wreaths cor­ responding in color to the colors of their respective stations. During tliis part of the ceremony Miss Aura Munroe sang the beautiful instal­ lation ode, and the ceremony closed with a tableau. The new officers were then conducted to their various sta­ tions by Deputy Grand Manager Hel­ en Burd, with Mrs. Von W. Furntes acting as Deputy Grand Senior. Following the. installation service, the degree staff gave a beautiful floor drill, forming the emblematic letters of the order, wheels, crosses, etc., the excellence of their work bringing out hearty applause and many wellmerited compliments. After the conclusion of the drill, the company was seated at twenty small tables and an appetizing repast was served, to which all did ample justice. The local temple Pythian Sisters, although the youngest of the ladies' secret orders in the village, is grow­ ing rapidly and is one of the most en­ ergetic and wide-awake of any of the focal orders.

Following we give the interesting and instructive program which has been prepared: NASHVILLE BOY CLIMBING. FORENOON. Charles N. Stanton, a former Nashville^boy, has just been elected presi­ dent of the Stock Yards Savings bank at Chicago, to succeed S. R. Flynn, resigned. Thirteen years ago Charlie took a position as clerk in the Royal Trust <‘o. bank, as clerk. His ad­ vancement there was rapid, and he worked up through the positions of receiving and paying teller to the position of chief clerk. Then the company started a new bank on the west side and placed him in charge. Shortly a new bank was opened at the corner’ of 12th and Halstead streets, and Mr. Stanton was offered and accepted the position of assistant cashier. After holding that position for several years he was, about six months ago, given the position of cashier of the Stock Yards Savings­ bank, from which position he has now been elevated to the presidency. His rise in the financial world' has not been through the influence of money. for he started with only his two hands and a good pood head, he— and he _____ has.. .climbed the ladder of success by, his own trinslc worth and hard work. 10.00.

There the paused while Mrs. Eva Hoffman sang in an impressive manner “Tenting Tonight on the Old Camp Ground. Taking up the campaigns of 1863 the speaker pictured vividly the events of the war with its 62,000,000,000 of treas­ ure and 500,000 lives sacrificed, and ended with an eloquent plea for arbi­ tration. Mrs. Fern Cross then read “The Blue and the Gray,” adding to the feeling of solemnity. Mrs. Lulu Green fittingly and feel­ ingly closed the afternoon by singing “Her Little Boy in Blue.” The annual election of officers will be held Jan. 18, at the home of Mrs. H. Roe. James Traxler and Tay Castelein have sold their dray lines to F. P. Lapham and C. B. Plank of White Cloud, the latter gentlemen to take possession this week. Messrs.

Mr. Lapham has rented the Wilson residence property on the south side and expects to move in the near future. Mr. Plank will be here tliis week to take charge of affairs. There has been a report current that they expect to raise prices, but this is not true. They will continue charg­ ing same prices as have been charged in the past, and solicit the patronage of our people upon the grounds of fair dealing and satisfactory- attention to business. The sale was made through the Central Michigan Real Estate Exchange. L. B. D. C. OFFICERS. The L. B. D. C. met at the home of Mrs. J. B. Kraft Tuesday evening for the purpose of reorganizing.

"PIGS IS PIGS.” If you don’t believe it, try to buy a few. Many a man is on the hog, ow­ ing to the high prices of pork. J. K. Smith isn't one of them, however. He sold one to Wenger Bros, last week, which hangs up just inside of the market door. It weighed 518 pounds, dressed, which at nine cents per' pound, amounts to the pretty sum of I 846.62. It wouldn't take many hogs I at that price to pay for an automobile. The present high prices were brought about by one of the biggest shortages ever known to the trade. No sharp declines are expected dur­ ing the coming year, because It takes quite a while for the country to get well stocked up, and as many are shipping what they have on account of the attractive prices now being paid, the price is likely to hold good for a long time to come.

There was a little stir tn the street, but Baraka and Spiro ware too sensible and too sure of tlfcmselves to offer any useless resis­ tance. and. supposing there was some misunderstanding they walked back Rsdetly to Mr. Finney’s shop between two of the policemen, while the third went for a four-wheeler at the nearest •tend. which happened to be the cor­ ner of Brook street and New Bond agree t. Mr. Plnney recognized his late cus­ tomers without hesitation, and went with them to the police station, where be told hte story and showed the Idece of green glass. Spiro tried to apeak, but was ordered to hold Iris league, and as no rubles were found to their pockets he and Baraka were led away to be more thoroughly •earthed. But now, at last, Baraka resisted, and with such tremendous energy that there would have been serious trouble if Spiro had cot called out •omething which at once changed the aspect of matters. “Master la lady!" he yelled. “Lady, man clothes’" “That makes a pretty bad case." observed the sergeant, who was super­ intending. “Send for Mrs. Mowle.” Baraka did not resist when she saw the matron, and went quietly with her to a cell at the back of the station. In less than ten minutes Mrs. Mowle came out and locked the door after her, She was a cheery little person, very neatly dressed, and she had rest­ less bright eyes like a ferret She brought a little bag of soft deerskin in her hand, and a steel bodkin with, a wrought silver handle, such as •outhern Italian women used to wear to their hair before such weapons were prohibited. Mrs. Mowle gave both objects to the officer without (he earth, and who would certainly prove, her innocence, vouch for her character, and cause her to be set at large without delay, if he knew of her trouble. ’What Is the gentleman s namer’ Inquired tne po’lcemnn. The name of Barakn's fr’^nd was Konstantln Logotheti, and Spiro knew the address of the lodgings he always kept in St James’ place. "Very well," said the pellceman. "Til speak to the officer at once." "I thank very much, sir," Spiro an­ swered, and he made no more noise. The sergeant looked surprised when the message was given to him. ■ "Queer case this," he observed. “Here’s the thief appealing to the owner of the stolen property*for help; and the owner is one of those million­ aire financiers; and the thief is a love­ ly girl in man’s clothes. By the by. Sampson, tell Mrs. Mowle to get out some women’s slops and dress her decently, while I see if I can find Mr. Logotheti by telephone. They'D be likely to know something about him at the bank if he’s not at home, and he may come to find out what's the matter. If Mrs. Foxwell should look in and want to see the girl, let her in, of course, without. asking me. If she’s in town, she’ll, be here before long, for I’ve telephoned to her bouse, as usual when there’s a girl in trou­ ble.” There was a sort of standing, un­ official order that in any case of a girl or a young woman being locked up, Mrs. Foxwell was to know of it. "Any scars or tattoomarks. Mrs. Mowle?" he inquired In his buslness- “Not a one,” answered Mrs. Mowle, who had formerly taken In washing at home and was the widow of a bravo policeman, killed in doing his duty. In the bag there were several •crews of paper, which were found to contain uncut rubles of different sizes to a large value. But there was one. much larger than the others, which Mr. Van Torp-had not seen that morntog. Mr. Plnney looked at ft very carefully, held, it to the light, laid It on a sheet of paper, and examined It long in every aspect He was a con­ scientious man. “To the best of my belief,” he de­ posed, "this is the stone that was on my counter half an hour ago, and for which this piece of green glass was substituted. It is the property of a customer of mine, Mons. Konstantin Logotheti of Paris, who brought it to me this morning to be cut I think It may be worth between nine and ten thousand pounds'; I can say nothing as to the identity of the paper, for tissue paper’s very much alike every­ where.” “The woman," observed the officer In charge of the station, “appears to •teal nothing but rubies. It looks like a queer case. We’ll lock up the two, Mr. Plnney. and If you will be kind enough to look In to-morrow morning, Tm sure the magistrate won’t keep you waiting for the case." Vastly relieved and comforted. Mr. Ptoney returned to his shop. For­ mality required that the ruby Itself, with the others to the bag, should re­ main to the keeping of the police till the magistrate ordered it to be re­ turned to its rightful owner, the next morning; but Mr. Plnney felt quite as sure of its safety as if it were in the Japanned strong-box in bis own safe, and possibly even a little more sure, for nobody could steal it from the poUee station. But after he was gone, Spiro was heard caUing loudly, though not rude­ ly or violently, from his place of con­ finement “Mr. Policeman! Mr. Policeman! Please come speak!" The man on duty went to the door and asked what he wanted. In his broken English he explained very clearly that Baraka had a friend in She Grasped Lady Maud’s Arm. and she had a way of remembering a great many sergeants* names, and do­ ing kind things for their wives at Christmas time, which further dis­ posed them to help her in her work. But the London police are by nature the kindliest set of men who keep order anywhere In the world, and they will readily help a man or wom­ an who tries to do good in a sensible, practical way; and if they are some­ times a, little prejudiced In favor of their own perspicuity In getting up a case, let that policeman, of any other country, who is quite without fault, throw the' first stone at their brave, good-natured heads. Logotheti was not at his lodgings in St James* plaee, and from each of two clubs to which the officer tele­ phoned rather'at random, the only an­ swer was that he was a member but not in the house. The officer wrote a line to his rooms and sent it by a messenger, to be given to him as soon It was late in the hot afternoon when Mrs. Foxwell answered the mes­ sage by coming to the police station herself. She was at once admitted to Baraka’s cell and the door was closed after her. The girl was lying on the pallet bed, dressed in a poor calico skirt and a loose white cotton Jacket, which Mrs. Mowle had brought and had Insisted that she must put on; and her man’s clothes had been taken from her with all her other belongings. She sat up, forlorn, pale and lovely, as the kind visitor entered and stood beside her. "Poor child!” exclaimed the lady, touched by her sad eyes. "What can I do to help'you?" Baraka shook her head, for she did not understand. Then she looked up into eyes almost as beautiful as her rue-., with beseeching look that could not be misunderstood. She wished Logotheti to be informed of her cap­ tivity, and was absolutely confident that he would help her out of her trouble.. Lady Maud was less sure ot -that, however, and said so, but it was soon clear that Baraka did not apeak a word of any language known to Lady Maud, who was no great linguist at beat. Under these clrcnmstances it looked as if there were nothing to be done for the’ poor girl, who made all sorts of signs of dis­ tress, when-she saw that the English woman was about to leave her, in sheer despair of being of any use. Just then, however, the sergeant came to. the door, and informed the visitor that tbe girl had an accomplice who spoke her language and knew some English, and that by stretching a point be would bring tbe man. if Mrs. Fox­ well wished to talk with him. The result was that to less than half an hour. Lady Maud heard from Spiro a most extraordinary tale, of which she did cat believe a single word. To her plain English mind it all seemed perfectly mart at first, and an- reflection she thought It an out­ rageous attempt to play upon her creduDty, whereas she was thorough­ ly convinced that the . girl had come to grief in some way through Logo­ theti and had foUowed him from Con­ stantinople, probably supporting her­ self and her companion by stealing on the way. Lady Maud’s husband 'had been a brute, but he knew the east tolerably well, having done some military duty in the Caucasus before he entered the diplomatic service; his florlcs had chiefly illustrated the pro­ found duplicity of all Asiatics, and she had not seen any reason to dis­ believe ■ them. • When Spiro had nothing more to say, therefore, she rose from the only scat there was and shook her head with an air of utter increduUty, min­ gled with the sort of pitying contempt she felt for all lying in general. She could easily follow the case, by the help of the sergeant and the police court reports, and she might be able to help Baraka hereafter when the girl had served the sentence she would certainly get for such an Im­ portant and cleverly managed theft Thp poor girl implored and wept in vain; Lady Maud could do nothing, and would not stay to be told any more Insane stories about ruby mines In Tartary. She called the sergeant, freed herself from Baraka’s despair­ ing bold on her hand and went out And when she thought of what must have gone before, and of the part Logotbeti had almost certainly played in the girl’s life, her anger was roused, and she sat down and wrote to Margaret on the impulse ot the mo­ ment She gave a detailed account of her experience at the police station, including especially a description of the way Baraka had behaved in trying to send a message to Logotheti. “I tell you quite frankl’," Lady Maud wrote tn conclusion, "that nry friend Mr. Van Torp has begged me very urgently to use any friendly to­ ll uence I may possess, to induce you to reconsider your engagement. be­ cause he hopes that you will accept him instead. You will not think ary less well of him for that. A man may ask his best friend to help* him to mafxy the girl he is in love with, I am sure!

I suppose he is with you. though you said you did not want him at Bayreuth! Show him this letter if you like, for I’m quite ready to face him if he's angry at my interference. I would even Join you in Paris, if you wanted me, for I have nothing to do and strange to say I have a little money!

But in any case answer this, please, and tell me that I have done right or wrong, Just as you feel about it—and then we will go on be­ ing friends, or say good-by, whichever you decide."!^ (TO BE CONTINUED.)

KOCHER BROS. , Blown, Muss., Jan. 3, '10 To The Nrw-s: Thinking that some of the readers of The News might be interested in some news from “way .down east” I will try and give an! abbreviated ac­ count of my wanderings. My visit in the East was something of a surprise party, only one person knew of my coming. I had written to this person, who was the wife of a cousin of mine, (another Charley Raymond) and we bad planned that she should get up a Christmas dinner and invite the friends: that- I should drop in unexpected and surprise everybody. Well, it worked all right, and they were all took in a heap. I left Nashville Friday noon (the 24th) on the fast train east, which was 15 minutes late. We were one hour and fifteen minutes in crossing the river at Detroit, on account of tbe river being tilled with packed ice, ar­ riving in Windsor we were one hour and twenty minutes late, but made up twenty minutes going to Buffalo, and was one hour behind the schedule the* rest of the way, arriving in4Pittsfield, Mass., Christmas morning at9:15a.m. Taking into account the one hour lost time, and the difference of one hour between Chicago and Eastern time, it made the actual running time from Nashville about 19 hours, and tbe distance is 800 miles. The Christmas dinner came as was planned except my 'uncle and wife were unable to be present on account of my aunt’s poor health, so I gave them a’surprise for supper. . When I left home there was about five inches-of snow but as I went east it began to get lest and less and at Detroit and all the way through Can­ ada and part way into New York there was none; about the central, part of the state it commenced to increase in quantity and in Pittsfield found it about the same as at home. It com­ menced to snow Christmas ‘ in the afternoon and kept it up until Monday afternoon; Sunday and Monday ft blew a gale, blocking traffic in ail directions, tbe worst part of the storm was across tbe southern section of New England. Along this part of the country the wind reached the velocity of seventy miles an hour. 'It compleily demoralized telegraph and telep tone ones. Along the coast it wrought ruin and havoc in its path. It is claimed to he lhe worst storm in twen­ ty years. Great tidal waves came up over dikes and sea walls and carried destruction in their path. Sunday morning, about‘ four o’clock I was awakened by a fire alarm, which tarned out to be a big fire on North street. It burned the inside out of a block of three big stores. The firemen worked twelve hours to put it out; the loss was 395,000. Tuesday morning we took the Berk­ shire trolley car tor Adams, fifteen miles north up in the mountains. We took everybody by surprise, but they were just “delighted.” Wednesday we put in visiting the nemerous relatives at this place. M • ran up against it here and when night came were nearly all in: I never ate so much in one afternoon in my life. We hud dinner with one cousin, then wenteto another place, they had a late dinner and we had to eat there, then we went across the valley and up to where we were born, passing the birth Since of Susan B. Anthony. They ad an early supper here and we had to eat again. Right here we made up our minds that this eat biz was get­ ting somewhat strenuous, and if we expected to get back home alive we would have to cut -it out. We left them sometime after dark and drove back to town. 1 shall never forge# that ride down the east slope of the mountain, the whole landscape cov­ ered in spotless white, across the val­ ley lhe towering ridge of mountains, in the center of which loomed the summit of old ••Greylock” silhouetted against the star bespangled vault of heaven. The city lay beneath us, no buildings were visible but thousands of electric lights transformed the whole valley into a veritable fairy land: each individual light shed a sort of halo around it. and with all the land clothed in its winter garb of white it made un impression long to be remembered. Thursday we went back to Pittsfield by invitation of the Berkshire Gun Club and attended one of their trap shoots, and partook of n beefsteak supper which was O. K. in every respect. The shoot and supper todk’ place at the club’s , grounds, about two miles out of Pittsfield. In lhe evening we went to the theatre and witnessed some high class vaudeville. After the show was over we took the last trolley car back to Adams, on our way further east. I had expressed a wish before leav­ ing home that I might see an “old fashioned New England winter.’’ I will say that I have struck it and then some. ' The. snow storm which com menced Christinas and lasted two days and nights was up to all of its old time pranks. At Adams the road had to be all broken out with snow plow and shovel, cutting the drifts all the way from two to twelve feet deep. Well this will do for this time. In my next will tell of my trip to the “Hub” and the coast. Chas. H. Raymond. The topics for the next three weeks, at the M.

"in one of these cases," quotes the Yale Review, "a man was imprisoned 30 days for a debt of two cents. We observe in an English paper a notice of a' widow who Is confined In jail in Providence for the unpardon­ able sin of owing 68 cents." James Bell, keeper of the debtors’ jail in New York, in a document sub­ mitted to the state senate stated that la 1816 729 persons were confined to tbe jail under bls control for debtf under $25 each.

He speclfleally mentions the cases of Dins Lyman. Imprisoned for three years for a debt of less than |50, and of George Riley, imprisoned for six years, also for a debt of less than 350. Both of the men were supported while imprisoned by charity. In other states, as Massachusetts and Rhode Island, the creditor was required to provide for the board of the imprisoned debtor.

Washington, Jan. 8.—-Great Britain has intervened in the Nicaraguan af­ fair. The secret of the continued presence in Nicaraguan waters of the British cruiser Scylla was re­ vealed when its commander sent an ultimatum to the generals command­ ing the revolutionary and government forces of Nicaragua' that there must be no fighting within the town of Greytown. Will Land Forces. The growl of the British lion is contained In the following peremptory .note from the captain of the Scylla to Generals Estrada and Huraldo: “The majority of the houses In Grey­ town being owned by British subjects, there must be no fighting within that town. If any does take place, there, I shall consider myself at liberty to land a strung armed party and guns to stop IL” Madriz Declares Execution Illegal. A telegram was received last night at the slate department, through Rear Admiral Kimball, r’.atlng that Presi­ dent Madriz had asked him to com­ municate to this government that after a personal study of the circumstances attending the execution of Groce and Cannon he profoundly lamented the act; that be was compelled to declare It Illegal, and that the resentment of the government and people of the United States was just.

This is a race against time—no time for hesitation. TVe mean busi­ ness. Here is a bargain counter for wage-earner or capitalist. Washington, Jan. 10.—The long-de­ layed report of the University ot Copenhagen to the National Geographic society has arrived in Washington, it was written in Danish, and though brief, was to the point After being translated the report was reviewed by Dr. J. Howard Gore, Rear Admiral H. N. Pillsbury and Prof. C. Willard Hayes, chief geolo­ gist of the United States Geological society, constituting the special com­ mittee of the Geographic society ap­ pointed to review the Cook data. None of the Cook data accompanied the report. The documents which were handed to the commission for examination are: 1. A typewritten report of Dr. Cook’s north pole journey, made by Mr. Lonsdale. 2. A typewritten copy made from Dr. Cook’s notebooks, covering the period from March 18, 1908, until June 13, 1908, the time in which, ac­ cording to Dr. Cook's statement, he journeyed to the pole and back to an undefined point on the polar ice west of Axel Heiberg's laud. Tbe commission gives the result of its examination of the material sub­ mitted the following as its conviction: The report of tbe expedition re­ ferred to under (1) is essentially the same that was published during Sep­ tember and October of this year in the New York Herald. . Tbe copy of the notebooks referred to under (2) contains no original as­ tronomical observation whatever, but only results. The data In the documents submit­ ted to us are of such an unsatisfac­ tory character that it is not possible to declare with certainty that the as­ tronomical observations referred to were actually made; there is likewise lacking details in practical matters— such as sledge journeys which could furnish some control. The commis­ sion Is therefore of tbe opinion that the material transmitted for examina­ tion contains no proof whatsoever that Dr. Cook reached the pole.

He transformed the bleak, bare country­ side by planting E0 acres of trees •very year until he had 3,000 acres well covered, and in 1832 had probably the unique experience of embarking in a ship which was built of oak grown from the acorns he had himself planted.

CENTRAL MICHIGAN Real Estate Exchange Office in Nashville Club Block NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN �= ======= Pre-Inventory Opportunities । ’ ENGLAND. Pittafield. Maas., Jan. «, ’10. In my last letter I mentioned taking tbe last trolley car to Adams. About six miles out of Pittsfield we got stuck in the snow on top of Lanesboro hill, in a cut; there was only one other passenger; lite wind was bitter cold but we took turns shoveling and final­ ly bucked our way through. I left Adams Friday morning at eight o'clock for North Adams, the tunnel city, so-called on account of the close proximity of the Hoosac tunnel, the western portal being just outside the city. On account of the train being iate we had about an hour to stroll about the old town and see if there had been any changes since we were there four years ago. We left North Adams at 10.30 a. m. for South Acton, our route being over the Fitchburg read through the Hoosac tunnel. This-is the longest railway tunnel in the United Slates, being four and threequarters miles long. Il ls cyl under the Hoosac Mountains, the highest point being 1600 feet, it is double tracked and takes seven minutes to go through it. As we emerge from the eastern portal we are right in the Deerfield river valley. There is a narrow gauge railroad that goes up tbe .river for about thirty miles to Bennington, Vt. Our trip takes us down tbe Deerfield valley*, this is a fine trip even in the winter, and in the summer it-must be glorious. This valley is narrow and winding and the ’ view from the car window is constantly and ever changing; on either side the towering slopes oY tbe mountain are clothed in their winter garb of spot­ less white, the mountain sides are covered with timber of different spe­ cies, some places it will be white birch, then a mixed variety, and then the whole elope of the mountain side will be covered with pine, the dark green foliage of which against a back­ ground of white makes a picture long to be remembered. As we follow the river down we make a turn and here is a little town strung along for half a mile or more and a little farther on, another, and so on and in almost every one the first thing you notice will be the towering stack of some kind of a factory. We followed the Deerfield river down to where it empties into the Connecti­ cut river. At this place was the seat of hostilities during the King Philip ;war, in which this wily old chief undertook to do what several other big Indians have tried since and failed, viz.,' to drive the pale face into the big salt pond. Crossing the Con­ necticut river we strike the M iller river and follow it up to its source. There are a lot of big towns along this stream, among which are Millers Falls, Wachusett, Athol, Fitchburg, and a lot of others. Our first stop is at South Acton, where a cousin met us and we had a sleigh ride of three miles across the country to the little village of Stowe. Ttiis is a funny old town like a lot of others in this section, built along the country road-for half a mile or more, and mostly country residences of peo­ ple from Boston and vicinity. It must be beautiful here in the summer time, fine roads and lined on either side with huge old trees, and 1 will say that the down east people are not afraid of a little shade, and the more the better. I arrived in Stowe Friday the day before New Years and stayed until Monday. From this place it is * six miles to Concord, twelve miles to Lexington and twenty-five miles to Boston. This place is replete with interest for the lover of American history, as _______ in this______ immediate ,____ initv vicinity occurred those ---- — stirring events which preceded our struggle for independeuce.

KOCHER BROS. * * The new minister was making his first call and was waiting for mamma pin the drawing room. Little sister and her elder were holding an earnest cnnfab in the hall. "You dassent,” said the elder, in tense, small tones. "You lust see," said Little Sister, proudly. And she danced off into the drawing room, an angelic figure in daintiest white, 'her flossy curls of shadowy gold clinging around neck and brow, her big blue eyes as Innocent and con­ fiding as a mother’s and her flowerlike face meriting any impulse of reverent admiration which the occupant of the room might be moved to feel. When mamma appeared, just as Lit tie Sister danced, out of the door again, she thought the expression of the minister was rather curious, and that he seemed to be making an effort to control It. Also his manner was em­ barrassed and his call was very brief. Pondering over these things and a good deal puzzled, she remembered seeing Little Sister leave the draw­ ing room as she entered it The small maiden was forthwith summoned and asked what she had talked about with the minister. "Nothing—much,” she faltered. "Tell me exactly what you said to him,” mamma demanded sternly. "It — it wasn’t anything—'much — hist a little story Edith and 1 made ip to tell the janitor’s little girls. .?hey were down there in the yard when you made us come up yester­ day, and they told ns such yarns, mamma! You never heard such things! And Edith and I, we said we wouldn't have them crowing over us that way If we got a chance to slip down there again. And so wo made up a little story tt> tell them, and Edith said I dassent go in and tell it to the minister, and so, of course, I did.” "And what was it? Tell me exactly what you said." ”H wasn’t any—anything—much,” the small voice faltered. ”1 just told him that my papa came home last night as drunk as he could bo and kicked my mamma over and jumped up and down on her stummlck.

Kilpatrick, an old resident of the village and- township, died at his home last Thursday, from tbe effects of a stroke of. apoplexy, with which he was stricken several years ago and never recovered. Mr. Kilpatrick was born in Scotland, but came to this township when but a mere boy and has been identified with its history ever since. Although his parents were poor be worked his way t hrough college at Kalamazoo, attended the U. ■of M., also medical colleges at Rochester, N. Y., and Detroit, Mich. He was a veteran of the civil war and was a cripple from the effects of a broken hip. About forty years ago he commenced the practice of medi­ cine in Odessa township, but did not stay there only a few years when he purchased ihe lot and built the house In which he died, and up to about five years ago practiced his profession in this vicinity. He was a good, all-round physician, but be was especially succesful with lung fever ano pneumonia, and when able to do so nad a large ride. About 1815 be purchased the old store building that L. Hilbert had occupied and converted it Into a drug and grocery store and occupied it un­ til about four years ago. Although eccentric, jte was never hlpocritical, and a person always knew where to find him. In his professional deaJs was very lenient and. his books now show enough ont-1 awed accounts to have made him wealthy In the early ’70s he was married to Nancy L.McAr­ thur, who was a life-long resident of the village and who has carefullycared for him during his affliction. He leaves three children, all of whom are grown to manhood and woman­ hood. The Millinery firm of Williams & Craha* have sold out their business and good will to Miss Grace Holmes of this village. During their stay with us, they nave by honest dealing and up-to-date goods established a good Arade, and at tbe same lime made many friends, who will be sorry to have them leave. Their successor is one of many young ladies, who has many friends, and we hope the people will give her their -hearty support. If our little village wishes to nave and retain business places it must pupport them. C.’S. Palmerton went to Kalamazoo Wednesday and will attend the meetingof the asylum board at their semi­ annual meeting.

WILL BOYCOTT ALL MEATS FOR THIRTY DAYS Members of Cleveland Concerns Would Aid Authorities in Probing High Cost of Living. Cleveland, O., Jan. 17.—Four hundred and sixty superintendents and foreman of 21 of tbe largest manufac­ turing concerns of this city have pledged themselves to aid in a general boycott on meat for 30 days. In addition to agreeing to do with­ out meat themselves, the superintend­ ents and foremen have promised to In­ duce as many as possible of the 7,000 employes under them to dispense with the food for the same period. If the employes enter into the pact approxi­ mately 30,000 Clevelanders will ab­ stain from meat during the next month. The pledge is effective to-day. The anti-meat action wm taken at a meet­ ing of the Superintendents' and Fore­ men's club, in which practically every manufacturing plant of the city Is rep­ resented. The pledge says: “We, as wage earners, are willing to Mslst both the state and the muni­ cipalities In probing into the high cost of living, particularly the cost of meats, which is prohibitive. “This agitation can* best become effective by refraining from eating meat for a period of 30 days. "If this does not bring the price of meat within the means of poor people, then we wfl refrain from eating meat for 60 days." WMhington, Jan. 15.—Here is Pres­ ident Taft’s official attitude toward the “Insurgents" in congress, both m president -and as titular head of the Republican party. The president has been laboring earnestly to bring the "insurgents" and 'Tegular*" together Jn support of the progressive measures promised by the Republican platform of 1908. He has not threatened to withold patron­ age from any "insurgent” on account of his action on the tariff bill or his vote with respect to the speakership or rules. . By custom of the party, the recom­ mendations of Republican senators and congressmen as to local officers have been given conclusive weight if the recommendations were of persons fitted to discharge their duties, and. under these circumstances, in the rlew of the president, it becomes nec­ essary for him, in following that cus­ tom. to determine who are Republi­ MISUSE OF cans and who are not. Regards All as Republicsns. In making that choice it can be said flatly men wbc have vpted against the tariff bill, who have voted against the speaker, who have voted against Cannon in respect to the rules and who are called "insurgents," the pres­ ident regards as Republican* still, be­ cause they were elected as such. Tbe president has only said that where a man. elected m a Republican is taking steps to defeat the legisla­ tion recommended by him in the per­ formance of party promises, he is no longer a Republican, and to give weight to his recommendations for patronage would be to furnish him means In the future of defeating the administration policies. Tbe president is threatening no one with a view to undue support of legis­ lation; he is only declining tp furnish means for defeating his legislative purposes by following the recommen­ dations of men who recognize no obli­ gation to the party of which the pres­ ident is the titular head. Factions Reach Agreement. From the White House has come this statement: "It has been agreed between the 'regular' Republicans and the socalled 'insurgent*,' represented by Mr. Dwight on the one band and Mr. Hayne, on the other, after conferences with the preaident, that a caucus should be held to pass upon tbe ques­ tion of the committee in the Interior: department investigation, with the as­ surance that the 'Insurgents,* If they came Into the caucus, would be treat­ ed fairly and that a committee of ac­ Mr. Pinchot’* address was character­ knowledged impartiality would be ap­ istically brief.

It was merely the terse, formal or­ der that al! the petitions for a writ of certiorari had been denied which set­ tled the banker's fate. No explanatory remarks of any kind accompanied it, for It Is not the custom of the su­ preme court to tel! why it denies such appeals. The order of the court goes to the circuit court of appeals st Chicago, and as soon as It Is entered a man­ date will be sent down to the district court, where Walsh wm tried, and as soon as that is issued the commitment of Walsh will Issue, and unless there be an appeal to the president he will be sent at once to Leavenworth. The effect of the order entered was that the court declared that Walsh had had a fair and impartial trial, despite all his complaints of prejudice. Fruit Growers Meet In Madison.

Bulbs should be potted in fairly rich soil that has been pulverized until free from lumps; be given a good wa­ tering; have the soil well firmed around them, but not packed hard un­ der them, and be kept in a cool, dark place until root growth is well estab­ lished. Nothing Is gained by bringing bulbs to the light too soon, and often the beauty of their flowers is sacri­ ficed by so doing. Leave them In their cool, dark quar­ ter* until the roots show at the open­ ing in the bottom of the pot and the foliage is an Inch or more high. This treatment insures strong roots that can take up both food and moisture from the soil for the sustenance of the Depth of Soil. ’ * * “ ‘ ’ ’h're" bringing them to the light before the root growth is well established means that much of the top growth must be made from the stored-up vitality. Not all bulbs give as good results when grown in water as when the soil is used, but tbe Chinese sacred lilies do if rightly treated. What is meant by “rightly treated?'* In the first plaee examine the bulb and if there is a hard crust or scale over the base re­ move it. Then peel off the outer layers of brown skin and with a sharp knife cut gashes from the top of the bulb almost to the base and half way to the heart Those who have never tried this will feel sure they have ruined the bulb, but they have simply put it in such condition that the buds can spread the layers and get out. When tbe bulb is not gashed the buds that form fail to get up through the neck and 'die from compression. Hyacinths, some varieties of tulips, crocus and various other bulbs give good results when grown in water, and the water­ forcing method is very desirable in furnace or gas Economy The expert knowledge of every man in our mar­ ket is at your service, and it is as much his duty to answer your questions as to fill your orders And we are never too busy to do either.

Owing to the bad condition of the roads Saturday evening, a cutter con­ taining Shirley Parrott was upset south of town.

We are in receipt of the 18th annual number of the (Tacoma) West Coast Trade, published by our old friend Orno Strong. It is a very creditable edition, containing many half-tone pictures of interesting views near the coast, and statistics of the mammoth growth of crops in the state of Wash­ ington. The issue'eontains a liberal amount of advertising. The Odd Fellows are planning on a big time for tonight and every member of Nashville lodge No. 36 Is requested to be present. The West Sebewa de­ gree team, who did the work in Grand lodge last year, will be here to ex­ emplify the first degree, and Hastings lodge is also invited. The Club auditorum has been secured for the occa­ sion. Ail come out and help entertain the visiting brothers. It is estimated that about 15,o6o automobiles are owned in the state, and as there is a fee of 83 each, and chauffeurs’ licenses in addition to be paid for, it is expected that the total amount which the state will receive will not be far short of 850,000. The licenses are due now, according to the new law, in spite of the fact that old licenses say to next May. While the old licenses were 81, tbe new ones are •3, but the state furnishes the two number plates. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Ackett gave a reception at their home on the south side, Thursday evening of last week in honor of their son, William Ackett, and his bride,, who received the guests under a canopy of wedding bells. Instrumental music and songs were a pleasing feature of the evening. A sumptuons supper was served to about forty guests. Many useful gifts were in evidence. This estimable couple will be a welcome addition to tbe social life of the village. Eaton county is in for a jolly row. Recently a new walk was built around the court house square at Charlotte, and the board of supervisors expected to pay for it. In fact, did pay a por­ tion of the expense, and promised to pay tbe rest of iL Vermontville’s supervisor claimed the city of Char­ lotte should pay for tbe walk and that the county funds could not be legally used for the walks. A . number of Vermontville and Kalamo farmers paid their taxes this year under pro­ test. and now Eugene Powers of kalanio has started suit agfainst Township Treasurers Leon Bromberg of Kalamo and Sidney S. Rockweir of Vermont­ ville to recover. The Vermontville case is a circuit court action and when the matter came into the courts it will no doubt be sharply contested. The Republican wheel-horses of this senatorial district, comprised of the counties of Barry, Clinton and Eaton, will ha ve their first opportunity for a fraternal gathering on Tuesday eve­ ning of next week, when the Clinton county Republican club bolds its annual banquet at SL Johns. The speakers will be the four candidates for governor, Judge Montgomery, Regent Osborne, Lieutenant Kelley and Hon. Amos Musselman, besides Congressman Fordney. A number of Barry county workers have signified their intention of being present. Lawrence Strimback pleaded guilty Monday in circuit court at Charlotte, to the charge of assault and battery with*the intent to do great bodily harm less than murder. The judge deferred sentence until next term of court. A petition was sent to the •prosecuting attorney, signed by many of the citizens of Sunfield township, asking that the case against Strim­ back be dropped but the prosecutor didn't feel that he could grant the re­ quest. It will be remembered that Strimback got into a mix-up with Geo Burlincourt after both had filled up on hard cider and that he gave Bur­ lincourt a bad looking face. A popular social affair, among the newspaper boys is a “subscription shower.” It is a good deal like the linen and china showers given in hon­ or of prospective brides. A number of subscribers whose subscriptions are due get together and induce all their neighbors who are not subscrib­ ers to join them. They go in a body to the newspaper office, where each one JHanks down a dollar and takes credit or a year’s subscription, if the edi­ tor's face is wreathed in emiles tbe affair is a success. If he looks glum and grouchy, the affair is a failure and not worth trying again. Try it once and see if it isn’t a success. The Lentz Table Co., had< a fortu­ nate accident last week, if any acci­ dent can be termed fortunate. Their sticker, a large machine which is in almost constant use, had commenced to show signs of wear, and a short time ago they ordered a new one. The new machine came one day last week, and tbe next day, before the new machine had been installed, the old machine suffered almost complete wreck. The new machine was at once put in place and the work will now go along as usual. If the new one had not been ordered until after the break to the old one, a delay of several weeks would have been enforced. A FEW WORDS TO THE POINT. Three hundred sixty-five days in one Eear; 52 Sundays In one year; 313 argain days in one year and every one of these days are bargain days. We don't charge you unreasonable profit eleven months in the year and sell you in that time all that you need in the clothing line, and then when you are all stocked up with all the clothing you and your family can possibly wear give you one-third or one-half off; it looks to us like giving the fellow with a full stomach a piece of pie for fear he is hungry. We have made the assertion that we can, and do save you from 82.00 to 87.00 on every suit or overcoat you buy from us, and our hundreds of satisfied customers will honestly and gladly testify to that fact. And we again make the bold assertion that we are the only store in Nashville that sells nothing but All Wool ready­ made clothing. We have done the larger share of the clothing business of Nashville the past year by giving every mana square deal and a bargain, and many are the men that have unasked, made the remark that we had saved them enough on their suit to buy them their hat and shoes. We want you to go to these socalled cut price sales, get their prices, examine the quality of goods, then come to Greene, the all wool man, and get a square deal in clothing.

It is as tbe home of American writers that Concord is best known to the world at large, for here have lived and died some of the greatest of our poets, philosophers, essayists and romancers, men who have made the new world .shine with splendor in the broad field of letters. Concord is but a small village^ but what a light she has shed. She is proud, and why not, for what other town In the uni­ verse has contributed so greatly to the world’s work? Here lived Thor­ eau, the somewhat eccentric poet and naturalist. Here lived Emerson, whose philosophy is a power through­ out thecivillzed world. Hawthorne our great romancer, lived here and con­ tributed to the literature that will al­ ways live. Here Louisa M. Alcott, the friend of the younger generation, lived with her “Little Men and Little Women,” and here she told us of tbe good times these little people had in good old Concord. Here lived Bron­ son, Alcott, George William Curtis, Margaret Fuller, Channing, Ripley, Bartlett,. Whelldon, Sanborn and a score or more of men and women who are known far and wide. All these have lived here and worked here and loved old Concord as she is loved to­ day. Well, well, I have spun this out longer than I intended and will have to close for this time.

KOCHER BROS. a Good Business and clares Good Dividend. De- The annual meeting of stockholders of the Derby Medicine company was held here last Tuesday, at which there was a good attendance of those financially interested in the success of this rapidly growjng industry. The company has grown from practically nothing at all, outside of its formula's aud a lot of pluck and determination, four years ago, to command a position of stability and prominence in the commercial world that this town should feel proud of. Its success has been accomplished through three of the most important sources of busi­ ness life, namely: Reliable remedies, careful and conservative management and square dealing. It has enjoyed all of these essentials, and the result is that for the past two years the company's business lias increased with such rapidity, and on a dividend paying basis, that at this time il is a long distance beyond the experimen­ tal otage. It is one of the solid indutries of Eaton Rapids, and the fact tbat it has been made such in so short a space of time, is very pleasant and merited compliment to the business judgment of James E. Gray, manager of the company's interests.' Shoulder­ ing the responsibility of placing a business of this magnitude on a foun­ dation where it pays the stockholders good interest on their investment in less than four years of active life, is bv | no means an easy task, but there is no i getting around the fact that it has been done in the case of the Derby Medicine company, and the profits of that concern will continue to grow. The company's books show’an in­ crease of nine per cent in dividends in 1909, over those of 1908, but a second semi-annual dividend for »be year, of only three |>er cent was declared, because of keeping -the remaining six per cent on hand to be used in extending the business through the present year, by introducing the remdies in new territory. The stock­ holders and directors are thoroughlypleased with the past business of the company and delighted at its future prospects, which are of a nffiure to inspire confidence all along the line. The following board of directors was elected: F. W. Godding, J. B. Hendee, Geo. D. Wilcox. Hv. H.'Ham­ ilton and J. B. Bradley.—Eaton Rapids Journal. IN MEMORIUM. Nashville. Mich . Jan. 24, 1910.

Jan. 35.—If the suite pending in the United Btotes supreme court are decided in favor erf the gov­ ernment the administration will at once Institute proceedings against a large number of corporations organ­ ized along the same lines as the Standard Oil Company and the Ameri­ can Tobacco Company. Judiciary Is at Work. This statement was made on high authority aa representing the inten­ tion of President Taft. So confident is the administration that it will be victorious in the Standard Oil and Tobacco cases that agents of the de­ partment of justice are now at work making a thorough investigation of many of the corporations against which suits will be filed shortly after the supreme court reuders its de­ cision. The'prosecution of the beef trust is only the beginning ot the campaign which the president is preparing to wage against the trusts, It is declared. Refuses to Desist. It-Is known that the president has bad this program in mind for several weeks. It is also known that some of the most Influential men in Wall street have beseeched the president to abandon his trust busting campaign. Many members of congress have sought to dissuade the president but after deliberate study be has refused to yield to corporation representa­ tives. There Is a possibility that members of congress will attempt to head off the president by amendments to'* the Sherman anti-trust law. There have been several conferences recently for the purpose of arriving at a decision as to the best method to so modify the Sherman anti trust law that it would permit existing combinations to continue. Ne definite Conclusion has as yet been arrived aL Law Ablders Need Not Fear. Some of the leaders are fearful that if the subject is once opened up to amendment the law, instead of being modified, will be made more radical than at present, and for this reason they hesitate to risk the Introduction of legislation modifying the law. Mr. Taft takes the position that no corporation which observes the law need be in the least alarmed, and that If there Is any injury to business be­ cause infringements of the law are corrected, the injury cannot be per­ manent Wilson Blames Trust Secretory of Agriculture Wilson in his testimony before the congressional committee which is investigating the rise in the price of foodstuffs in the District of Columbia declared that American farm products are sold cheaper abroad than”they are In this country. He intimated that the trusts were to blame, but declined to go into any lengthy explanation because the in­ vestigation which he is conducting has not yet been completed. He also blamed the high cost of living to this, together with the exorbitant profits demanded by the retail dealers. He prescribed as one remedy for the evil, a return to the farm. More farm­ ers. and more intelligent farming, he declared, would greatly remedy con­ ditions.

BELIEVED ALL ARE DEAD Calerad3 Fuel A Iron Company Re- Trinidad, Col., Feb. 1.—A terrific explosion occurred at the Primero coal mine. Three miners were killed outright and 150 others are believed These 150 men were entombed by the explosion while at work and there seems hardly a chance that any of them escaped, although it is possible that a few may have gotten out on.the other side of the mountain. Information Is Refused. The Colorado Fuel & Iron Com­ pany, which owns and operates the property, refuses to give out any in­ formation regarding the explosion, claiming that both its telephone and telegraph wires to Primero are down. It la claimed the company purposely removed the telephone apparatus at Primero. so that no news of the acci­ dent might leak out without being censored. The Colorado Fuel & Iron Company ordered asspecial train made up and rushed to tbe coal camp. Doctors and nurses left on this train with'a large supply of medical supplies. The three men who were killed were near the mouth of the mine when the explosion took place. Explosion Heard Many Mlles. The explosion was heard ten miles and many thought an earthquake had occurred Primero Is located 24 miles north­ west of Trinidad. Three years ago a disastrous explosion, took place in the property. In which 21 miners were killed and many injured. Fifteen Bodies Recovered. Fifteen bodies were latet taken out of the mine. They were horribly mu­ tilated. Seventy-five coffins have been ordered from Denver. Tbe rescuers are being balked by black . damp. There is no fire In the mine. KING AND PREMIER CLASH Asquith Disregards Ruler's Invitation to Visit Him, Which Amounts to an Affront London, Feb. 1.—Politicians are dis­ cussing eagerly the evidence that a clash has taken place between King Edward and Premier Asquith. It develops that on last Tuesday the king Invited Premier and Mrs. Asquith to pay a week‘send visit to him at Windsor castle, presumably to discuss the political situation. Such Invita­ tions are usually considered ' In the nature of commands, to disobey which would amount to an affront to the king. On last Saturday Asquith left for Cannes. France, for a brief vacation. As Asquith’s action is almost un­ precedented. It is believed that he and the king clashed over the policy to . be pursued in the forthcoming parlia­ ment. w is Inconceivable that he would refuse to discuss the situation with the king unless something had occurred to make bis acceptance of the premiership impossible.

Chamorro bad defeated the Madriz troops under Gen. Vasques at Acoyapa in a battle that bad con­ tinued since Wednesday was the defi­ nite news received from Rama, con­ firming previous dispatches. Little actual news of the battle is known, owing to the difficulty in tele­ graph transmission between Rama and Acoyapa. However, word from Es­ trada assures a provisional victory, al­ though it is believed from the tone of his messages that his losses are heavy. Chamorro Is Wounded. Gen. Chamorro has been wounded. He led a charge on a battery midway between Acoyapa and La Libertad. The English gunners’ fire worked havoc, but the guns finally were si­ lenced. Hand to hand fighting for a great distance along the line ensued. The losses must have been great, for Estrada’s message says: ”Recreo out­ done." Estrada now is mobilizing his troops for an assualt on Managua. It is be­ lieved tbe fight will be short and sharp.

FLOOD GHOULS ARE SHOT BY SOLDIERS Looters and Pestilence Now Beset Paris and Suburbs ’ as Waters Subside. Paris, Feb. 1.—With the recession of the waters of the Seine, Paris is beginning to feel the after effects of the flood. The pavement on the cor­ ner of the Rue St. Lazare and the Rue Caumartln has subsided several feet A house collapsed on the Rue Lecourbe shortly after it had been evac­ uated by the tenants. On the Rue dee Enterpreneurs a huge gap was opened under tbe cellars of several bouses and the whole of the ground floor of a house on the Impasse de 1’Eglise is undermined. Several fissures have opened in the Qual d’Orsay. Collapsing buildings and streets, however, are not the most serious problems confronting the authorities. Lawlessness and danger of pestilence have become the issues of the mo­ ment. Ghouls are taking advantage Qf chaotic conditions to plunder boldly both in Paris and the provinces. Re­ ports tell of half a score of looters shot and killed by soldiers. The feeling against the Apaches was demonstrated in various dramatic instances of pursuit in rowboats. Bat­ tles between looters and pursuers were fought. Three Apaches were shot dead and two others hanged to lamp posts- as a warning. The authorities are devoting all ef­ forts to preventing a general epidemic as the floods subside. A house to house canvass Is being made and the people are warned not to reoccupy rooms which have been flooded until the quarters have been disinfected. As the deposits of mud left by the, waters are removed from the houses quicklime will be plentifully used and the floors and walls cleaned and white­ washed or painted. The principal danger is from ty­ phoid, the germs of which may be re­ ceived through the digestive channels if the impure water is drunk.

Her eyes studied the man’s face almost unconsciously. He now wore a fex’ instead of a yachting cap, and it’ changed his expression. He no longer’ looked in the least like a European.

Your attention is called to the finan­ cial statement of lhe Farmers and Mer­ chants bank which appears in their advertising space on first page of this issue. This reliable institution is now in the half million class, a distinction not enjoyed by many banks in villages the size of Nashville. Its Iftrge de­ posits shows plainly that this bank enjoys the confidence and support of the entire community.

As be was about to reach for the horse he slipped and was trampled under the feet of the horse, receiving two fractures below the knee, and it is feared, internal injuries.

It has just been discovered that on­ ly two firms doing business in Barry county under an assumed name, or under a name other than the real name or names of the Individuals en­ gaged in business, have not filed cer­ tificates with the county clerk giving the names of the firm, as is required by the provisions of Act No. 101 of public acts of 1907. This applies to private banks, creameries, unincor­ porated manufacturing concerns, mer­ cantile concerns and any persons do­ ing business under other names than their names.

I can* understand that you shotild dream of killing him, and he deserves to bo burnt alive, but why you should wish to marry him Is known to the wisdom of the blessed ones!" "You never saw him," Baraka an­ swered with perfect simplicity. "He is a beautiful man; his beard is like the rays of the morning sun on a ripe ■cornfield. His eyes are bright as an eagle's, but blue as sapphires. He is touch taller and bigger and stronger that you are. Do you not see why I want him for a husband? Why did be not desire me for bis wife? Am I crooked, am I blinded by the small­ pox, or have I six fingers on both hands and a hump on my shoulder like the Witch of Altai? Was my por­ tion a cotton shift, one brass bangle and a horn comb for my hair? 1 gave Um the riches of the world to take me, and he would no't! 1 do not un­ derstand. Am I an evil sight in a man's eyes’ Tell me the truth, for you are a friend!** “You are good to see,” Logothetl answered, stopping and pretending to examine her face critically as she Stood and faced him. “I do not desire you to speak for yourself," returned Baraka. "I wish you to speak for any man, since I go about unveiled and any man may see me. What would they say in the Street if th^y. saw me flow, as a wom­ an? That Is w-fa^t 1 jpust know, for he is a Frank, and nFaill judge me as the Franks judge when he sees me! What will he say?" “Shall I speak as a Frank? Or ss they speak in Constantinople?" “Speak as he would speak, I pray. But speak the truth.” “I take Allah to witness that I speak the truth," Logothetl answered. “If I had never seen you, and if I were walking In the Great Garden in Lon­ don and I met you by the bank of the river, I should say that you were the prettiest dark girl in England, but that I should like to see you in a beautiful Feringhi hat and the best frock that could be made in Paris;" ; Baraka's face was troubled, and she looked into bls eyes anxiously. “I understand," she said. “Before I meet him I must have more clothes, many beautiful new dresses. It was Shameless, but tt wm easy to dress M a. man. after I had learned, for It | wm always the same—the difference' wm three buttons—or four buttons, or a high hat or a little hat; not much. Also the Feringhi men button their garments as the Mussulmans do, the left over the right, but I often see their women's coats buttoned like a Hindu's. Why is this? Have the women another religion than the men? It is very strange!" Logothetl laughed, for he had really never noticed the rather singular fact which had struck the born Asiatic at “But this woman's dressing is very difficult to learn." Baraka went on.1 leaning back upon the rail with both elbows, and sticking out her little white shoes close together. “Without the girl Maggy whom you have found i for me—but her real name is Gula, and she is a. good Mussulman—without 1 her, Allah knows what I should do!-1 I could not put on these things for myself; alone, I cacnot take them off.

And it is all behind, as if one had ho front! G ila knows how it is done. But if I were alone, without her help, Allah is my witness, I would tie the things all round me decently and sit very still for fear they should come off! That is what 1 should do!” The Greek thought her extremely amusing. She punctuated her expla­ nations with small gestures indicative of her ignorance and helplessness. "You will soon grow used to IL** he said. "But you must get some pretty things In Paris before you go to meet the man. It would also be better to Jet your hair grow long before meeting him, for it is bard to wear the hats of the Feringhi ladles without hair.” "I cannot wait so long as that.' Only to get pretty dresses, only so long! 1 will spend a thousand pounds or two —is that enough? I have much money in Paris; I can give much.” "You can get a good many things for a thousand pounds, even in Paris," Logothetl answered. Baraka laughed. "It will not be what I paid for the first clothes after I ran away,” she said. “I did not know then what the stones were worth! A little ruby to one woman for a shift and an over­ tunic, a little ruby to another for a pair of shoes, a little ruby for a veil and a head-blanket, all little rubles! For each thing one! I did' not know; the women did not know. But at Samarkand I sold one for money to a good Persian merchant, and what be gave me was enough for the Journey, for me and the old woman servant I hired there, till we got to Tiflis; for the Persian merchants everywhere gave me letters from one to another, and their wives took me In, or I should have been robbed. That is bow I reached Stamboul after many, many months, more than a year. The Per­ sian merchants are good men. All fear them, because they are wise in their dealings, but they are honest men. They do not lie. but they are silent and shake their heads, and you must guess what they mean; and if you do not guess right, that is your fault, not theirs. Why should they speak when they can hold their peace? But this Is all emptiness! We must talk of the fine dresses 1 must buy in Paris, and of What 1 must put on my head. The barbers in Paris sell wigs. 1 have seen them in the winfiows, very well made, of all colors, even of the Khenna color. I shall wear a wig. so that the beautiful Feringhi hat will stay on. I shall perhaps-wear u Khenna-colored wig.” “I should not. advise a wig,” said Logothetl gravely, "certainly not one of that dye.” "You know, and you are a friend. When I feel rested we will'' go to Paris, and you shall take me to all the richest shops and tell them in French what I want. Will you?” "I shall do all I can to help you.” answered the Greek wondering what would happen if his friends met him piloting a lovely barbarian about be­ tween the smartest linen draper's and the most fashionable dressmaker’s es­ tablishment in the Rue de la Paix. The two dined on deck, with shaded lights, but screened from the draught of the ship's way. The evening was cool, and the Uttle maid had dressed Baraka in a way that much disturbed her, for her taper arms were bare to the elbows, and the pretty little ready­ made French dress wm open at her ivory neck, and the skirt fitted so closely that she almost fancied heroelf in man's clothes — again. But on her “he <»ly <•*»* large veil, bit of* gold confine by * cord, and she drew one fold under her chin, ’ and threw tt over the opposite shoul­ der, to be quite covered; and she was -'-1 when she felt cold, and could wrap herself in the wide traveling cloak they bad bought her, and yet not seem to do anything contrary to, the customs of a real Feringhi lady. Lady Maud found Mr. Van Torp waiting for her at the Bayreuth statton. “You don't mean to say you've come right through?" he inquired, looking at her with admiration as he grasped her hand. “You're m fresh as paint!" “That’s rather a dangerous thing to say to a woman nowadays," she an­ swered in her rippling voice. "But mine won't come off.

An hour later the two young wom­ en were together in Margaret's room, while Potts was unpacking for Lady Maud in the one that had been se­ cured for her in spite of all sorts of difficulties. The prlma donna was sitting at her toilet table, turned away from the glass, ana Lady Maud occupied the only possible chair there was. a small, low easy chair, apparently much too small for such a tall woman, but less uncomfortable than it looked. “Are you going on Mr. Van Torp’s yacht?” asked Lady Maud suddenly. “He spoke to me about it on the way from the station, and asked me to come, in case you accepL” “I don’t know. Will you go if I do? That might make a difference.” Lady Maud did not answer at once. She wished that she knew how mat­ ters had gone between Margaret and Van Torp during the last few days, for she sincerely wished to help him, now that she bad made up her mind as to Logotheti’s real character. Nevertheless, her love of fair play made her feel that the Greek ought to be allowed a chance of retrieving himself. "Yes,” she said at last 'Til go, on one condition.

Sort out seed productive hills. Discard sweet corn for seed if it shows a trace of field corn. Beets that have taken second________ growth are spoiled for the table. Better apply manure to the garden now than to wait until spring. A dark cool house is an ideal place to store potatoes for the next 60 days. A lister is a good substitute for a potato digger; it is better than a plow m it has a double mold board. Leave the cabbages in the field until cold weather absolutely compels removal. They will keep better there than anywhere else. Whets it comes to hauling manure you cannot afford to do It in any other way than with a spreader.

Hcfgrew to manhood on his father's farm. July 23, 1842 he was married to Marthaette Bradley, who preceded him to the better world May 17, 1902. To this union were born five children; Oscar E., who died in a hospital in Alexandia, Va. during the civil war: Hosannah, who died wlten a young lady; Irving D, who died in infancy; J. Miiton-nowof Montana and Orson C. of Sunfield township, Eatery Co., at whose home the old gentleman has lived the past six /ears. He came to Michigan in 1840 hut re­ turned to NeW York and came to Michigan again with his bride, arriv­ ing here October 6, 1842. They first built a rude but, later a log house and later a.frame house, always residing on the samp farm which was but a wilderness when they -first located here. There are many living in Woodland who have i»een here for 50, *10, and a few for 70-years, who are pioneers and are justly entitled to the name: but they are the sons and daughters of the first or original pioneers. In view of this fact the subject of this obituary is the last one of the sturdy, original pioneers to be laid away to rest. When he came here 48 years ago he was like many other early settlers, had a limited amount of'means and the gigantic forests of bis land con­ fronting him on every han-1. But through his industry, honest and strict attention U> business, he, with tbe aid of a good companion, in course of time, Built up a beautiful home to maintain them through life and in declining years. He was one who helped bring Woodland township up to its present high standing of। prosperity and wealth. Mr. Sheldon was always very quiet and unassum-1 ing in his'life career, a very kind and indulgent parent and one who was always very highly respected by all who knew him and we are pleased to learn and record the fact that bis son, Orson and family gave him the best and most waCchfulcare until the last moment and carefully laid him away in his long and last resting place.

PUTTING THE WIND tO WORK. water into electricity through a tur­ Millions and millions of horse­ power hourly sweep back and fourth over the habitation of man and only a very small fraction of this wasted energy is used to turn a wheel. Such men as Edison of Orange, Steinmetz, of Schenectady, and Tesla of Denver, state upon authority, backed with actual figures, that the day is already dawning when the waves, the sun and the wind will have to be harnessed to supply mankind with the necessary power to keep us alive and in comfort. In the East the windmill is practic­ ally unknown but scattered all over the great plains in the middle west can be found these economical power producers busily engaged in pumping water or occasionally turning a grind­ stone or a feed mill. These wheels are small, but they are busy and successful workers and there is no reason why they cannot be made The modern farmer of this great country now boasts of his telephone, his automobiles and his other city con­ veniences and he will not be totally satisfied until he has electric lights and electric motors to do the drudgery about his farm. Tbe Yankee with his Barlow knife has whittled out more labor saving Inventions than all the other nations put together and it is not to be wonder­ ed at that an enterprising Illinois farmer was the first to provide his farm with an abundance of electricity direct from wind power. ' This countryman knew nothing about electricity dr electrical machin­ ery beyond what he had seen in the nearby cities but it did not take long to read up on the subjects enough to understand the rudimentary principies of tbe mysterious energy. He already owned a large steel windmill so all he had to do was to devise some scheme whereby the wind power could be turned into electricity. He soon found out that a small generator di­ rect connected to his windmill shaft would not do at all, for his power would not only be very uneven, but would cease entirely whenever the wind stopped blowing. He thought of making the windmill pump water to a high tank and then convert the falling bine-driven generator but tills would involve too much expense. Then he chanced upon an article dealing with batteries for storing electricity and the problem was immediately solved. The complete windmill planton this model farm consists of a small stor­ age battery, an electrical generator and an automatic device for controll­ ing the current to and from the stor­ age battery, together with the neces­ sary lamps, wire and small motors. The battery consists of fourteen cells arranged on an open rack in two tiers. This battery is clean, gives off no disagreeable odor and needs no care except to keep it in a warm, dry place. Near the battery is located the auto­ matic cut-off device which breaks the circuit between the generator and the battery whenever the latter is. idle or running at too low a speed to provide sufficient current to the cells. If it wasn't for this little automatic device wiujnever tbe speed of the generator fell below normal the current, instead of flowing from the generator to the battery, would reverse and flow from the battery into the generator, con­ vening the latter into a motor and doing no end of harm. The insulated wires run from the batterv to all parts of the house and farm buildings and as the wind pres­ sure is nearly constant in that section, and there, is nothing to pay forenergy consumed, the countryman and his family enjoy all the light in their home they desire and no one is cautioned to turn out a light before leaving a room. This well-planned and ingenious outfit is really very simple and costs oompartively little. The items for re­ pairs are very trifling and the farm has plenty of electrical energy at al) times. When the wind is idle the storage battery contains enough energy to burn the lights for several days. ______ ___________ The wireless transmission of elec­ trical power is now attracting tbe attention of soientista and inventors.

The Sunshine Circle of the King's Daughters was royally entertained on St. valentine’s night at the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. O. G. Monroe. An elegant 6 o’clock dinner was served in three courses. The table decorations throughout were both in keeping with the day and tbe organ­ ization in whose honor the dinner was given. Dainty valentines, tied with the emblematic color of the Circle, were used as place cards. ' White candles, springing from the center of large yellow chrysanthemums sup­ ported upon glass holders, lighted the table, and were suggestive of sunshine. Tbe effect was both harmonious and beautiful. It would take too long to tell of all the good things to eat. which were brought to this table. Suffice it to say we arl did ample justice to the same, after which we were conducted to the fiarlor where we listened to vocal and nstrumental music, and enjoyed various other amusements. There were no visible airships, but in some mysterious manner some of the guests, as well as our hostess, were seen taking aerial trips. About 9 p. m. we took our departure, declaring our host and hostess royal entertainers. CARD OF THANKS. Many mixtures are offered as substitutes for Royal.

Enquire News United States Census Bureau, give a clear idea of tbe character of the office. questions Id the population schedule to i>e carried in the Decennial Census April 15 next. All answers are to have 'reference solely to the “Census Day,” which is April 15. Persons living on that day, but who died after it and before the enumerators call, are to counted, but persons born after April 15 are not to be included in. the count. Persons who,were single on April J5 are to be reported as single, even though they have married subsequently and be­ fore tbe canvasser has called. This is true, similarly, of persons who be­ came widowed or divorced after April 15. . > The census law provides that all persons shall be enumerated at their “usual place of abode” on April 15. This means the place where they may be said to live or belong or the place which is their home. As a rule, the usual place of abode is not the place where a person works or where he eats, but where he regularly sleeps. The enumerators are cautioned, how­ ever, that where a man happens to sleep at the time of the enumeration may not be tbe place where he regular­ ly sleeps. There will be a number ot persons having their usual places of abode in enumeration districts, who will be absent April 15. These are to be in­ cluded and enumerated after the facts regarding them have been obtained from their families, relatives, acquantainces, or other persons able to give the information. For instance, if a member of any family in an enumeration district is temporarily away from home on a visit, or on business, or traveling for pleasure, or attending school or college, or sick in a hospital, such absent person is to .be enumerated and included with other members of the family. But a son or daughter rejnilarly living in another locality should not be Counted with the family at home. Servants, laborers, or other em­ ploy eei*. who live with the family, anti sleep in the same house or on the premises, should be enumerated with the family. The Census Bureau states that there will be, on the other hand, a certain number of persons and perhaps lodg. ing and sleeping' in districts at the time of the enumeration who do not have their usual places of abode there. These are not to be enumerated. It must be assumed that they will be enumerated elsewhere. The can­ vassers should not, therefore, unless it is practically certain that they will not be enumerated anywhere else, enumerate or include with the mem­ bers of a family they are enumerating Persons visiting a family; Transient boarders or lodgers who have some other usual or permanent plac^of abode; Students or children living or board­ ing with a family in order to attend some school, college, or other educa­ tional institution In the locality but not regarding the place as their home: Persons who take their meals with a family but lodge.or sleep elsrwhere: Servants, apprentices, or other per­ sons, employed by a family and work­ ing in the house or bn the premises, but not sleeping there: or Any person who was formerly in a family, but who has since become a permanent inmate of nn asylum, alms­ house, home for the aged, reforma­ tory, prison, or any othpr institution in which the inmates may remain for long periods of time. . NOTES ELECTRICAL Meat is now cured by electricity. The X-ray is now used extensively in dentistry. Storm warnings are now sent to ships at sea by wireless. Experiments are being made to transmit music by wireless telephony. A cent's worth of electricity will operate a sewing machine motor for three hours. Electric fans are used in the winter to keep the frost off from the plate glass windows in the big stores. ' An electrical device is now used to thaw out frozen water pipes. All that is necessary is to hitch the wires to the water pipes and electricity will thaw them out quickly. The Panama Canal Commission has ordered a large number of huge searchlights from the General Electric Company so the work on tbe big ditch can be continued nights.

EDWARD OPENS PARLIAMENT Ancient Pomp Marks Ceremony In London — King, Accompanied by Queen, Starts Seaalon Which Prom­ isee to Be Memorable. London, Feb. 22.—King Edward opened in state the third parliament of his reign. In a momentous speech from the throne his majesty outlined the plan of the ministerial campaign against the house of lord as follows: “Recent experiences has disclosed serious difficulties due to recurring difference* of strong opinion between the two branches of the legislature. Proposals will bp laid before you with all convenient speed to define the re­ lations between tbe houses of parlia­ ment so as to secure the undivided au­ thority of the house of commons over finance and its predominance in legis­ lation. These measures, in the opin­ ion of my advisers, should provide that this house should be so consti­ tuted and empowered as to exercise impartially In regard to proposed leg­ islation the functions of initiation, re­ vision and subject to proper safe­ guards of delay."

Cairo, Ill., Feb. 22.—After a day of tbe utmost tenseness the coroner's Jury brought in a verdict, in which no censure Is attached to ‘ the sheriff's deputies for firing upon the mob .that was attempting to lynch John Pratt, a negro pickpocket, and killing Alexan­ der Halliday last Thursday night; nor to Halliday for being a member of the mob which stormed the Jail. The ver-, diet is plaintly a compromise. Mre.

Halliday, the dead man. had come to her after the puree snatching and offered to lead a mob to lynch Pratt, the negro who had been convicted of snatching her purse.

For 18 month* he ha* been working quietly on bl* road­ bed and In those 18 months every on* who has asked him questions has re­ ceived a nod of hl* head for his pains. Meyers will say nothing. And the result of this non-commit­ tal attitude has been that not alone Is Jetmore, the county seat of Hodge­ man county, talking In an excited way, but the entire Seventh and eighth congressional districts are dis­ cussing the peculiar enterprise which one man Is fostering. This railroad which Meyers has started is planned to extend from Jetmore to Garden City, 54 miles. It will run almost due west and would afford a connection with the Jetmore branch of the Banta Fe. which now extends from Ijirned to Jetmore. The people of Jetmore and the country around It always have sought a west­ ern connection with Garden 'City, which would afford another junction with the Santa Fa's main line. For 20 yean men have been predicting that some day that line would be built; that it would have to be built. In the middle eighties even the Santa Fe made a survey and laid .out grade sticks, some of which are still In evidence along the grade being es­ tablished by Meyen. But the Santa Fe gave up Its plan yean ago and all rights were relinquished by It. Meyen has been so profoundly silent that the people have never been able to get so much as an Intimation from him. He has lived in a shack out a few miles from town, has worked every day and has attended strictly to his own business. And now after 18 months Jetmore Is waking. It finds that Meyen, the mysterious, has completed nearly two miles of his roadbed on two of the roughest miles of the proposed route between Jetmore and Garden City; two miles that were filled with hills that went as high as 50 feet, which Meyen reduced to the levels; two miles that were Interspersed here and there by ravines many feet deep, which Meyen filled after ceaseless T*rrtbly scalded by steam and hanging to th* outside of the cab of hi* speeding engine.

TWO SNOW SLIDES KILL 50 PEOPLE IN IDAHO Burke and Mace Are Overwhelmed by Avalanches That Gilds Down Mountains. . Spokane, Wash., Mar. L—Over two score ot lives have been ’lost, it is te&red, In two great snowslides which brought dismay to the mining towns of the rich Coeur d'Alene district In northern Idaho. A snowslide swept down the moun­ tain, striking the little town of Mace and burying 25 bouses and their sleep­ ing occupants in a mass of snow and ice at the bottom of the canyon. A few hours later another slide rushed down on tbe town of Burke, crushing a score ot bouses under thou­ sands of tons of earth and snow. Fourteen bodies have been recov­ ered from the ruins of Mace; 15 dead have been found at Burke. How many remain burled can only be guessed at There Is fear that the number of dead at Burke may be even larger than that at Mace. Every man who can be spared from the rescue work at Mace has been appealed to. Doc­ tors were rushed from Wallace on spe­ cial trains. From the foot of the Anchor mine plant to the Catholic church, about half a mile, the slide is 30 feet deep. When the alarm spread through the mining camp that Mace had been aljuost wiped out by an avalanche, mothers, wives and children of miners employed at the Hecla, Hercules and Anchor mines, and caretakers at the Old Tlger-Poorman mine began to seek places of safety. Wives and families of miners who had responded to appeals from Mace were unable to move, and these may have been burled In the snow. Seven hundred men with pick and shovel, who were hurried to i- the scene of the accident on special trains from Wallace and other nearby min­ ing towns, are digging desperately in the hope of rescuing more survivors. Warning was given to residents of the canyon towns that conditions sim­ ilar to those prevailing before the fa­ mous Burke slide of 1800 existed, but nobody seemed to take any heed. Thursday night a snow and land­ slide snuffed out the lives of three prospectors and a woman at Avery, a small town on the Milwaukee road near the Montana line.

That's what doubts as to the destination of the Erinna, they vanished how. She was certainly bound for the Mediterranean. He remembered having beard that many steam yachts coming from Eng­ land put into Gibraltar for coal and fresh provisions, coal being cheaper there than in French and Italian ports, and he thought it very probable that the Erinna would do the same; he also made some deductions which need not be explained yeL The only one worth mentioning here was that Ldgothetl would be likely to hear In Gibraltar that the ruby had been found gnd was on its way back to England, and that as he would know that Margaret would be annious about It, since he had already given It to her, he would hardly let the occasion of communicating with her go by. As for writing from Gibraltar to any place whatsoever tn the hope that a letter will arrive in less than a week, it is sheer folly. Mr, Van Torp had never tried ft. and supposed It pos­ sible, as it looks, but he was tolerabiv sure that LogotheU would telegraph first, and had perhaps done so al­ ready. for the news of his passing Cape Saint Vincent was already 24 hours old. This was precisely what had hap­ pened. When Mr. Van Torp opened his door, he came upon Margaret and Mrs. Rushmore on the landing, on the. polnt of going out for a walk, and a servant had Just brought the prime donna a telegram .which she was read­ ing aloud, so that the American could not help hearing her. “ 'Cruising till wanted.’" she read quickly. “ ‘Ruby found. Address, yacht Erinna, Naples.*’’ She heard Van Torp close his door, though she had not heard him open IL and turning round she found herself face to face with him. Her eyes were sparkling with anger. "Very sorry," he said. “I couldn’t help hearing.” "It’s of no consequence, for I should have told you," Margaret answered briefly. He argued well for himself from her tone and manner, but he chose to show that he would not force his com­ pany upon her Just then, when she He folded the sheet, returned It to his Inner pocket and held out his hand in a cheerful, business-like manner. "Shall we shake hands on it?" ho asked. "By all means," Margaret answered readily, and their eyes met; but she drew back her hand again before tak­ ing hit. “This is purely a matter of business between us." she said, "you understand that? It means nothing “Purely a matter of business," an­ swered Rufus -Van Torp, slowly and Bravely. CHAPTER XII. On the morning after the transac­ tion last described. Van Torp’s atten­ tion was arrested by a sensational "scare-head* about a thief and a ruby worth 150,000. Some disaffected col­ league in London had known, or cleverly guessed, where the stone was that had been stolen from Mr. Pin-' Dey’s, and had informed the police; '■ the nice-looking young fellow who spoke like an English gentleman had | walked directly into the arms of the' plain-clothes man waiting for him on the pier in New York, the stone had been found sewn up in his waistcoat, and his pleasant career of liberty had ended abruptly in a cell. Mr. Van Torp whistled softly as he read the account a second time. Then he neatly cut the column out of the paper, folded it with great precision, smoothed it with care and placed it in his pocket-book next to a cheap little photograph of Mme. da Cordova as “JulieL” which he bad bought in a music shop in New York the day after he had heard her for the first time, and had carried in his pocket ever ■Ince. He took up the mutilated newspa­ per and looked up and down the col-|j sunns, and among Other information which he gathered in a few moments was the fact that Logothetl's yacht had “passed Capt Saint VlncenL going •asL owner and party on board."

Margaret watched him till he disap­ peared. T like that man," she said, as if to to herself, but audibly. "I cannot help it” Mrs. Rushmore was more than de­ lighted. but had tact enough not to make any answer to a speech which had probably not been meant for her ears. "Perhaps," she said, “you would rather not go out just yet, my dear.” Margaret was grateful for the sug­ gestion, and they turned back into their rooms. Meanwhile Van Torp bad reached the door of the hotel, and found Lady Maud standing there with her parasol up, for the sun was streaming in. T was waiting for you," she said simply, as soon as he reached her aide, and she stepped out into the BtreeL T thought you would come down, and I wanted to speak to yow. for I did not get a chance last night RSTS CURE automobile yesterday I shouldn't have guensvd there was anything wrong." "But there Is—something very wrong—something 1 can hardly bear to think of, though I must, until 1 know the truth." . . They turned into the first deserted street they came to. . wbat It Is.” Van Torp answered grave­ ly, T went to see him alone yester­ day on purpose, before he started, and I must say, If It wasn't for the beard I’d feel pretty, sure.” "He had a beard when I married him. and it was like that—Just like that!" Lady Maud's voice shook audibly, for she felt cold, even In the stuishlne.. j “I didn't know," Van Torp answered. "That alters the case. If we're not mistaken,-what can I do to help you? Let’s see. You only had that one look at him, through the window, is that so?" “Yes. But the window was open, and It’s not high above the ground, and my eyes are good. He took off his hat when he said good-by to you. and I saw his face as distinctly as I see yours. When you’ve been mar­ ried to a man"—she laughed harshly —"you cannot be easily mistaken about him, when you’re ar near as that! That la the man I married. I'm Intimately convinced of IL but I must be quite sure. Do you understand?" ‘ “Of course. If he*s really Leven, he’s even a better actor than I used to think he was. If he’s noL the re­ semblance is Just about the most ex­ traordinary thing! It’s true I only saw Leven three or four times In my life, but I saw him to look at him then, and the last time I did. when be made the row in Hare court, he was doing most of the talking, so I remem­ ber his voice.” “There’s only one difficulty.’' Lady Maud said. "Some one else may have been killed last June. It may oven have been the pickpocket who had stolen his pocket-book. Such things have happened, or do in books! But this is certainly the man you met in ■ New York and who sold you the stone I you gave me, is he not?” “Oh, certainly. And that was at the end of July, and Leven was killed late in June.” “Yes. That only leaves a month for him to have been to Asia—that's absurd." "Utterly, totally, and entirely impos­ sible." asseverated Mr. Van Torp. "One of two things. Either this man Is your husband, and if be is, he's pot the man who found the rubies in Asia. Or. else, if be is that man. he's not Leven. I wish that heathen girl had been here yesterday! She could have told in a minute. She'd better have been here anyway than cutting around the Mediterranean with that fellow Logotbetl!” "Yes." Lady Maud answered grave­ ly. "6ut about myself—if Leven Is alive, what is my position—I mean—I j don't really quite know where I am, do I?" • “Anybody but you would have thought of marrying again already," ob­ served Mr. Van Torp. looking up side­ ways in her eyes, for- she was taller than he. "Then you'd really be in a bad flx, wouldn't you? But as it is, I don’t see that it makes much differ­ ence. The man's going under a false name, so be doesn't mean to claim you as his wife, nor to try to get a divorce again, as he did before. He’s Just going to be somebody else for his own good, and he'll get married that way. maybe. That's his business, not yours. I don’t suppose you're going to get up tn church and forbid the banns, are you?" "I would, like a shot!" said Lady Maud. "So • would you. I'm • sure! Think, of the other woman!" 'That’s so." answered Van Torp without enthusiasm. “However, we’ve got to think about you and the pres­ ent. and decide what well do. I sup­ pose the best thing is for me to put him off with some excuse, so that you can come on the yachL" "Please do nothing it the sort!" cried Lady Maud. "But I want you to come,” objected her friend. T mean to come. Do you think I'm afraid to meet him?” Van Torp looked at her in some sur­ prise, and not without admiration. “There isn't anybody like you. any­ way." he said quietly. "But there's going to be a circus on that ship If he’s Leven," he added. "If he makes a fuss I'll read the riot act and lock him up." "Oh, no." answered Lady Maud, who was used to Mr. Van Torp’s familiar vocabulary; "why need there be any trouble? You've not told him I am coming, you say. Very well. If he sees me suddenly after he has been on board a little while, he’ll certainly betray himself, and then I shall be sure. Leven is a man of the world— ‘was* or 'is'—God knows which! But if it Is he, and he doesn't want to be recognised, he’ll behave as if nothing bad happened, after the first moment of surprise. At least I shall be cer­ tain. I must be positively sure whether Leyen is alive or dead, for what I have got back in thee# last two months is my whole life. A mere recognition at first sight and at ten a marvelous resemblance, for they iy every one has a 'double* somehere In the world." 'They used to say, too, that if you met your ’double* one of you would die,” observed Van Torp. 'Those things are all stuff and nonsense, of course. I was Just thinking. Well," that’s a comfort And even if he turns out to be Leven, maybe we can man­ age something." Lady Maud chose not to ask what her friend thought he could “manage;” for she had glanced at his face when he had spoken, and though it was half turned away from her, she saw bls expression, and it would have scared a nervous person. She did not like him to be in that mood, and was" sor­ ry that she had brought him to it But Mr. Van Torp, who wad’s strong man. and had seen more than one af­ fray in his ranching days, could not help thinking how uncommonly easy It would be to pick up Count Krallnsky and drop him overboard on a dark night next week, when the Lancashire Lass would be doing 22 knots, and there might be a little weather about to drown the splash. —id county <>= the It is no longer necessary to spend months and months undergoing a com­ plicated treatment, for rheumatism, kidney or bladder trouble, or spend a ■M&tar.Mie«wed good many dollars in doctors’ bills.

The vote upon tbe measure An amendment offered by Senator Borah of Idaho, which provides that no funds can be Invested in govern­ ment bonds paying less than 2% per cent, interest was adopted.

Pacific track in Rogers pass at the summit of the Selkirk range. They were entombed by an avalanche. Fourteen others, were Injured. The men were attempting to clear away the debris of a smaller slide which occurred In the Arrow valley of Bear creek, flanked on either side by precipitous mountains covered with a depth of snow varying from twenty to fifty feet. While the men were trapped . In this valley the second avalanche descended It started on tbe side of the canyon opposite the point. where tbe first slide occurred. The avalanche piled on top of the first slide, burying the tracks for a distance of a quarter of a mile around to a depth of 50 feet. Hundreds of thousands of tons of other debris In the wake of the avalanche bounded off tbe huge heap and half filled, tbe val­ ley of Bear creek, hundreds of feet below. I The news of the disaster was flashed by a lone telegraph operator at a way­ side station a mile distant. As soon as the news reached Revelstoke and Calgary relief trains conveying physi­ cians and nurses and over 325 railway men and other citizens were speeding to Rogers pass. The bodies of many of the victims were probably swept into the canyon and may not be re­ covered until summer melts the snow. Six hundred men are now digging out the track.

Jack Cudahy, who was arrested by a policeman who rushed Into the home after Mrs. Cudahy had appealed for aid, was given a continuance and will be tried next Monday on m charge of disturbing the peace. He is under a |101 bond. Mrs. Cudahy, in an interview, de­ clared that she and Lillis had been automobillng, had taken dinner at the Baltimore hotel, which was a common affair for them. He had taken her home and she had asked him to come .Into the house. She said that theg were seated in the library of tbe home, casually discussing common­ places. when her husband, accompa­ nied by his chauffeur, Johann Moss, bad appeared from practically no­ where. They attacked Mr. Lillis, bound and gagged him, and Mr. Cuda­ hy, whom she declares is of a jealous nature, proceeded to carve him with a big butcher knife. Where he got the knife she did not know. She was afraid that he would murder Lillis,' for whom she has a very sincere regard, and she called for a policeman. This is practically all of her story. ' Was Led Into Trap. Bit by bit the story of betrayal, jeal­ ousy aud revenge assumed tangible form, as Lt was told by one of Cuda­ hy’s attorneys.

Then the husband and a trusted employe seized him and bound him with a rope. Arming himself with a carving knife Cudahy proceeded coolly to slash his rival, while, horrified.

START GOOD ROADS MOVEMENT Several Thousand lowans Respond to Call of Gov. Carroll and Meet In Des Moines. ■ Des Moines, la., Mar. 8.—In re­ sponse to a call recently sent out by Gov. Carroll, nearly 5,000 advocates of good roads have assembled here for a convention that will last through to­ morrow. About 2,000 of these men are members of the State Thresher­ men’s association, which also Is in ses­ sion here. The delegates to the good roads meeting come from every com­ mercial club, farmers’ institute, every city of the first and second class and from every township. It Is the hope of Gov. Carroll that the convention will recommend to tbe legislature which meets next winter such legisla­ tion as will make possible better treatment of the state’s highways. MAROONED ON A SAND Three Men Are Caught When Gorge Breaks—Help Cannot Reach Them. BAR a mill to mitiand shop to shop can­ vass and visited every affected part of the city. 100,000 Are Out. Its report was "100,000 men and women have joined the 6,000 motor­ men and conductors. More than that number, according to the talk of those already on strike, will be out today." The Impartial Investigators found that the "sympathetic strikers" were divided about as follows: Building trades. 30,000; Hebrew trades (clothing, .etc.), 30,000; textile trades, 12,000; unskilled workmen de­ pending upon skilled textile unionists, 20,000, and miscellaneous, 8,000. These figures may be taken as at least fairly accurate. Certainly there were no less than 75.000 or 80,000 idle men upon the streets of tbe city. An automobile tour, through all the Ken­ sington and Richmond districts in the northwest section of the town proved that conclusively. In that section slope there must have been 50,000 per­ sons on the streets who would not have been there on a normal day. Only One Riot. Yet withal there was less rioting than any day has witnessed since the beginning of the car men’s strike. There was only one sizeable fight, and not very much damage was done in that. The leaders of the strike professed to be jubilant over the way that not only union but non-union workers turned out and behaved themselves. Plan Giant Strike. Chicago. Mar. 8.—Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation of Labor, who has been in the city since Saturday, Is planning for the calling of a general strike of street car employes In every large city In the country In sympathy with tbe Phila­ delphia car men’, according to dis­ patches that reached Chicago from the eastern strike, center. All the morning Mr. Gompers and other labor leaders were in conference in his apartments in the Kaiserho* ho­ tel. Repeated efforts were made to see the labor chief, but he would re­ ceive no one except his conferees. Others Hear War Rumor. It was rumored In labor circles, how­ ever, that the subject of a nation-wide strike was under discussion in the conference. Cleveland. Pittsburg, Omaha and San Francisco, It Is said, will be the first cities to be given the general walkout order, if the plans are carried out These were selected by the labor head because the Philadelphia com­ pany has large holdings In the railway systems of those cities.

Many people never suspect their kidneys. If suffering from a lame, weak or aching back they think that it is only a muscular weakness; when urinary trouble sets in they (bink it will soou correct itself. And so it is with al! the other symptoms of kidney disorders. That is just where the danger lies. You must cure these troubles or they may lead to diabetes or Bright’s disease. The best remedy to use is Doan’s Kidney Pills. It cures all ills which are caused by weak or diseased kidneys. Nashville peo­ ple testify to permanent cures. Henry Wolcott, Middle and Gregg Sts., Nashville, Mich., says: “Last spring I had a severe attack of lame back and for several weeks was un­ able to attend to my work. I could hardly get around and my kidneys were in a very poor condition. Al­ though I doctored and took any amount of medicine, nothing helped ■me and I was at a loss to know what to do. Finally I procured Doan’s Kidney Pills from Furniss’ drug store and their use was followed by prompt relief. In a few days the lameness and pain had entirely left me and my kidneys no longer troubled me. I cannot say too much in favor of Doan's Kidney Pills.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

"You see," said Mr. Van Torp, ex­ plaining to Mrs. Rushmore, which was .wholly unnecessary, "we are Ameri­ cans, and this ship Is America, so the English gueet goes first.” But Mrs. Rushmore knew these things, for she was used to handling Hons in numbers; and the little lions and the middle-sized ones are very particular about their places at table, but the great big ones do not care "one dingle Bam." as Mr. Van Torp would have elegantly expressed their indifference.

The fire department was called out Thursday morning of last week by a blaze at the Downing mills. A spark from the engine at the saw mill had found lodgment on the apex of the roof of the grist mill building and started a tiny blaze, which happened to be discovered immediately, and a few well-directed pails of water had the fire practically out when the de­ partment arrived. There was a high wind blowing from the east, and with a little more of a start it would have made a bad fire to fight. Mrs. Harriet McAdams, mother of Mrs. W. M.

Ralph Baker is an Irishman by vir­ tue of his natal day, which is March 17, St. Patrick's day, consequently his birthday parties always take on to a large degree the nature of an Irish festival. His seventh birthday occured last Thursday, and seven boys and seven girls of about his age gathered at his home on Queen street to help him celebrate. The decorations were all in green, even the ice cream, the cake and the candy being of the colors of Erin. Miss Wilds Gorthy furnish­ ed music on the piano, and the after­ noon was most happily spent by the merry party of little folks. Miss Edna Shilling entertained the members of the senior class of the high school at her home Thursday evening at a St. Patrick's party. The decorations of the house and table were all in keeping with tbe occasion, and the center of the table was “ornamented” with a huge green snake, swimming in a green pool,sur­ rounded by everything green except the mempers of the class. Plates were laid for eleven, a three-course lunch­ eon was served, and the repast was said by those present to have been worthy of St. Patrick himself. Music and games helped to pass a very pleasant evening, and the only un­ pleasant feature was the snoring that was noticeable in the school room the next day • Officers A checking account will not only help you to spend your money economically, but it will also aid you to save money systematically.

Then be should look upon her. and judge whether he had done well to despise her love, and to leave her to be done to death by her own people and her body left to the vulture that had waited so long on a jutting point of rock over her head three years ago. It was a dreamy and sense-compell­ ing life that she led on the yacht, sur­ rounded with every luxury she had ever heard of. and constantly waited on by the only clever man she had ever really talked with, excepting the old Persian merchant In Stamboul. The vision of the golden-beardod giant who had left her to her fate after treating her with stony Indifference was still before her. but the reality was nearer in the shape of a visible ■■greatman.’' who could do anything he chose, who caused her to be treated like a queen, and who was un­ deniably handsome. She wondered whether he had a wife. Judging marriage from her point of view, there probably had been one put away In that beautiful house in Paris. He was an oriental, she told herself, and he would not parade his wife as the Ferlnghis did. But she was one, too, and she consid­ ered that it would be an insult to ask him about such things. Spiro knew, no doubt, but she could not demean herself to Inquire of a servant Per* haps Ouls had found out already, for the girl had a way of finding out whatever she wanted to know, ap­ parently by explaining things to the second mate. Possibly Guls could be made to tell what she bad learned without being directly questioned. But after all, Baraka decided that It did not matter, since she meant to marry the fair-beard as soon as she had her pretty clothes. Yet she be­ came conscious that if he had not ex­ isted. she would think It very satis­ factory to marry the great man who could do anything he Hked. though If he had a wife already, as he probably had, she would refuse to be the second in his house. The Koran allowed a man four, it was said, but the ld<»a was hateful tn her, and moreover the Persian merchant’s wife had told her that It was old fash­ ioned to have more than one, mainly because living had grown so oxpen(TO BE CONTINUED.)

When­ ever a chemical reaction takes place, the nature of the original materials is entirely changed, so that the sub­ stances which remain tn the food to be eaten are very different from those which composed the baking powder be­ fore baking. For this reason the state­ ment that a baking powder- contains alum or cream of tartar is worthless so far as informing the consumer as to what he eats. What the- consumer wants to know Is what goes into his stomach, not what is in the can. Food prepared with a cream of tartar baking powder does not contain any cream of tartar, just as food prepared with alum baking powder is free from alum. Some baking powders leave largequantities of Rochelle Salts in the food, which is a dangerous drug and is pro­ duced bj- the chemical combination of bicarbonate of soda and cream, of tartar: others leave lime, ammonia, etc. . Calumet Baking Powder has been for so many years the standard of all that is good in baking powder that its purttj needs no defense. There is just one fact that will bring this point for­ cibly to the reader’s mind. This state, in common with nearlj- every other state in the Union, now has a very stringent pure food law which in no uncertain terms prohibits the manu­ facture and sale of any food substances injurious to health.

Officers of the federation say that aliens are being brought in and given places in the mill and the American workingman forced out. They also charge that the sanitary laws of tLo state of Indiana have been violated by the steel trust huddling together in one room some twenty-five or thirty workingmen. All these charges have been laid before the governor and it is to map out a line of battle that the governor has called the conference.

Mar. 28.—One of the most atrocious murders in this city, apparently the work of a Oend with a homicidal mania and rivaling In grewsome detail the crimes of “Jack the Ripper," was brought to light when the charred body of Ruth WLeeler. 17 years old, a pretty stenographer who had been missing from the home of her widowed mother, was found In a yard In the rear of 224 East Seventy­ fifth street. This is the house in which Albert Wolter, a man now under arrest on a charge of abduction in connection with the girl’s disappearance, had a room. The girl had been attacked before she was slain, and her clothes had been saturated with kerosene. The oil had been ignited with the evi­ dent intention of Incinerating the body and thus removing all traces of the crime, but when this f.-'led the charred body had been doubled up and placed in a burlap bag. .* 7t55 . 160 00 DISBURSEMENTS Total Charred Body of Ruth Wheeler Found Youth Arrested. .1 567 17 Mar.

He said that the question for us to consider was, what local option was to this county, and not what it was to some other state. Is it effective in the county and is it a good thing for the county? And then he showed that local option is a good thing for the county in every way. Drinking and drunkenness are greatly dimlshed, there is less poverty in the homes of those who formerly drank, moral conditions were far bet­ ter, and the abolishing of tbe saloons, instead of robbing people of their personal liberty, made It possible for them to assert their real personal liberty.

Sick kidneys ex­ crete a thick, cloudy, offensive urine, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding. The back aches constantly, headaches and dizzy spells may occur and the victim Is often weighed down by a feeling of languor and fatigue. Neg­ lect these warnings and there Is dan­ ger of dropsy, Bright’s disease, or diabetes. Any one of these symptoms is warning enough to begin treating the kidueys at once. Delay often proves fatal. You can use no better remedy than Doan’s Kidney Pills. Here's a Nash­ ville proof: David Kunz, Middle St.. Nashville, Mich., says: “My back troubled me for some time, being extremely sore and painful. It was hard for me to stoop and lift and my kidneys were badly out of order. Reading about Doan’s Kidney Pills I procured a box at Furniss' drug store and commenced their use. They promptly corrected the kidney difficulty ano also removed the pain and lameness in my back. I take pleasure in recommending Doan’s Kidney Pills to anyqoe afflicted with kidney complaint.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

Farrell, formerly of Nash­ ville, has been nominated for mayor by the republicans of Kalamazoo, and we hope he will win. Mr. Far­ rell is sterling, and the people of Kafr amazoo will find if they elect him that be Is right every rod of the road. Greene don’t advertise to sell’all wool clothing and then bold you up with mercerized cotton stuff, ’but he sells all wool and nothing but all wool and that is the reason he is do­ ing the clothing business of Nashville. Wind is cheap, but all wool wears (be best. W. H. Guy of Maple Grove under­ went an operation for appendicitis Monday morning. The operation was performed by Dr. E. T. Morris, as­ sisted by Drs. Shilling and Briley, and was a splendid success, requiring but a few minutes, and the patient is making a fine recovery. Clark Titmarsh will return from Detroit this week and commencing April 1 will resume his old position at Glasgow’s hardware. This will be good news to the many Nashville friends of Mr. Titmarsh and his family, whom they have missed sadly since their removal to' Detroit. Dave Kunz has resigned his posi­ tion at Glasgow’s', where he has been for the past ten years, and has accept­ ed a position in a hardware store at Shelby. His place at Glasgow’s will be filled by Lee Bailey, who has a host of friends in Nashville and vicinity, and who will make good, beyond a doubt. The Alanson Grocer Co. of Alanson, Mich., of which C. S. Weber, a for­ mer Nashville boy, is principal stock holder and manager, was entirely de­ stroyed by fire Sunday morning of last week. The loss is estimated at about 1*25,000 with but little insurance. This is tbe second fire the companv has had in the past year. They will re­ build. The village is laying about two thousand feet of new water mains this week, the work being done under the direction of Street Commissioner Woodard. The new extension com­ mences at the intersection of Sherman and Cleveland streets, running north on Cleveland to Washington, east on Washington to Lentz, and north on Lentz. Henry Glasner has taken down the battlement and cornice from the front of the building owned by him and oc­ cupied by Herman Maurer’s dry goods store. This is a good thing, as the cornice and the high battlement had become dangerous to pedestrians on the walk below. He has also painted the entire front, making a fine im­ provement. Henry Roe has been doing his share toward making Nashville “Spotless Town” this spring. He has made thorough repairs to his store occupied by Wenger Bros, as a meat market, having rebuilt the cooler, cemented the cellar and repainted the front. He has also repainted the front of his other store, occupied by O. G. Mun­ roe’s clothing store. On Thursday, March 24, Mrs. Eva Allertbn and Miss Minnie Liebhauser entertained the L B. D. C. at the home of the former on Queen street. Mrs. Edd Rich of Charlotte was the guest of honor.

According to reports recently re­ ceived, Mrs. Millie Francis, who is spending the winter in California, re­ cently found her son Clyde, from whom nothing has been heard in several years. He was in a hospital, recover­ ing from the effects of an operation to remove a blood clot from his brain, which undoubtedly accounts for some of his peculiar actions in past years, and it is hoped that his recovery will be complete. Mr. Francis was one of the brightest newspaper men in the state, but notably erratic. He is reeorted now to be on his way to his ome at Lake Odessa. THE WOMAN’S LITERARY CLUB. The entertainment of the Woman’s Literary clubby the Household Eco­ nomics committee at the home of Mrs. Carrie Munroe was a complete suc­ cess. Mrs. Brooks introduced the subject and explained some of the divisions of domestic science. Mrs. Shilling read a paper written for the feder­ ation on "The Saving Power of the Out of Doors’’ and talked about the “Model Kitchen”. Miss Fern Mix played a piano solo which was so heartily encored that she responded with another. Mrs. Roe told of the old time house­ keeping and Mrs. Rentschler read a paper written by Dr. Caroline Geisel on “Household Science, a Preventa­ tive Medicine.” Mrs. Munroe talked about “Making the Best of Things’’, after which Miss Mix played another selection. Ice cream and cake were served and everyone declared the af­ ternoon well spent.

"My owner has urgent business with your owner," was what the flags meant In plain English. The Erlnna was going slow, for Ba­ raka was only Just ready to come on deck, haste being in her opinion, an invantlon of Sha'ten's. Logotheti. who wished her to toe the straits, was just inside the door of the .deck sa­ loon, waiting for her to come out of her cabin. The officer of the watch read off the signals of the other yacht, ran up the answering pennant and sent for the sailing-master, but could of course do nothing else without or­ ders. Bo the Erinna continued to go slow. All this took'some minutes, for the officer had naturally been obliged to look up the signal in the code be­ fore answering that he understood it, and In that time Van Torp’s yacht had completed her turn and was nearly alongside. The Lancashire Lass rm Captain Brown Got Information About the Erlnna. mation about the Erlnna, if there were any to be had at the harbor-master’s office. It would have been folly to run out of the straits without at least looking in to see if she were there, ly­ ing quietly moored behind the fortress of San Salvatore and the very high mole. She was not there, and had not been heard of. but a Paris Herald was procured in which it was stated that the Erinna had arrived In Naples, “owner and party on board." "Well." said Mr. Van Torp, "let’s get to Naples, quick. How long will it take, captain?" "About eight hours, sir, counting our getting under weigh and out of this crowded water, which won't take long, for the tide will soon turn." ’’Go ahead,’’ said Mr. Van Torp. CapL Brown prepared to get under weigh again as quickly as possible. The entrance to Messina harbor is narrow, and It was natural that, as he was in a burry, a huge Italian man-ofwar should enter the harbor at that very moment, with-the solemn and safe deliberation which the move­ ments of llne-of-battle ships require when going in and out of porL There was nothing to be done but to wait patiently till the fairway was clear. It was net more than a quarter of an hour, but CapL Brown was In a hur­ ry. and as there was a fresh morning breeze blowing across the harbor be could not even get his anchor up with The result of all these delays was that at about nine o’clock he saw the Erlnna right ahead, bows on and only half a mile away, just between Scylla and Faro, where the whirlpool Is still a danger to sailing vessels and slow steamers, and just as the tide was turning against her and in his own favor. He did not like to leave the bridge, even for a moment, and sent the second mate with an urgent mes­ sage requesting Mr. Van Torp to come up as soon as he could. Five minutes earlier the owner had sat down to breakfast opposite Lady Maud, who was very pale and had dark shadows under her eyes for the first time since be had known her. As soon as the steward left them alone, she spoke. "It is Leven?’ she said, "and he often completely taken by surprise, but for oace he was almost speech- InUy. ras he,” Lady Maud and the two captains aimed their meg­ aphones accurately at each other from their respective bridges for c little pleasant conversation. CapL Brown. Instructed by Mr. Van Torp at his elbow, repeated what his signals had meant. The other sailing-master an­ swered that he had already informed his owner, who was coming to the bridge directly. At that moment Logotheti appeared. There was not much more than a cable's length between the two yachts, which In land-talk means 200 yards. Van Torp also saw a slim young lady in blue serge, with a veil tied over her hair, leaning on. the rail of the promenade deck and looking towards him. With his glasses he recognized the features of Baraka. "Got ’em!' ' he ejaculated in a low but audible tone of intense satisfactlon. Logotheti had also seen Van Torp, and waved his hand in a friendly manner. "Ask the gentleman if he’ll come aboard, captain." said the American. "I can’t talk through your cornopean anyway. I suppose we can send the naphtha launch-for him if we stop, "Can't stop here," answered Cajrt. Brown. "The currents might jam us into each other, and we should most likely get aground in any case. This is not even a safe place for going slow, when the tide 1b running.” "Well, you know your business, and I don’t. Tell him we don’t want to in­ terfere with any arrangements he's made, and that if he'll kindly set the pace he likes well trot along behind him till we get to a nice place, some­ where where we can stop. I suppose he can’t run away from us now, can he?" CapL Brown smiled the smile of a man who commands a 23-knot boat, and proceeded to deliver the message In a more concise form.

It is said that thefeJWLve bean only one or two of the thousands of new proprietary medicine bouses have made any considerable mpney that have started the past twenty kears and only a very few more that7 nave met with even moderate success.- It is the general impression that the business is immensely profitable while the facts are that there is a larger percentage of failures than in any other line. The new concerns usually start with lots of confidence in the merit of their goods and advertising but soon ex­ haust their capital leaving dealers who have stocked their medicines with unsalable goods on their shelves. It is the experience of many publishers that have accepted this new business that they have been compelled to charge uff their bills to profit and loss. There are many old and reliable medicine houses that continue.to do a good or increasing business from year to year but the new ones are finding it more and more difficult to become es­ tablished.

The president was authorised ,to appoint the regular committees, which ne made practically the same as last year. The officers and committees are as follows: President—E. B. Townsend.

It is expected to make the home­ coming feature much stronger this year than last; to have a reception headquarters, where “old home’ vis­ itors will )« received, registered and made welcome; to have more of home and fraternal gatherings than layt year, and .it is also talked that a day be given up. to a sort of old-time bat-1 ket picnic to be held at Putnam park, which will give all a chance to mingle with and greet old time friends. Remember these dates, the Home­ Coming all the week, August 8-13, and the Harvest Festival Thursday and Friday of the same week, August 11-12. Write to your absent friends and tell them what the dates are and urge them to make their visit to the old home during that week. AN EXCITING MORNING. Two, fires in one morning is going some for a town the site of Nashville, but that is what we had Friday morn­ ing. The first alarm came at about five o'clock and was caused by a fire at the home of Geo. Gilcrist at tbe corner of Washington and State streets. The fire was caused by a de­ fective grate, in which a fire was kept during the night. Toward morning the bricks of which the grate was con­ structed became so heated that they Runs house. The bouse is owned by Mrs. C. W. Smith, who is in Flordta with her husband, and they had a lot of household goods stored in tworooms of the house. These goods were taken out in time so that they were hot damaged, but Mr. Gilcrlst’s people will lose about <300 or >400 on on their goods, covered by insurance. Tito house was also insured for enough to cover the'damage. ■ The second alarm proved a sort of April fool, being sent in from the residence of J. B. Kraft, where a furi­ ously burning chimney alarmed the household, as well as the neighbors. Tito department started for the scene of the fire but were headed off and went back to their quarters, their help not being needed.

Negotiations had been opened through Ambassador Lelshman here for the contemplated visit of Col. Roosevelt The latter explained him­ self as anxious to see the pope. The latter tn reply said he hoped that no such unpleasant Incident as that which marred the visit of Mr. Fair­ banks to this city would occur. Mr. Fairbank s declined to visit the Vatican's before seeing the Method­ ists. Col. Roosevelt replied that be could not visit the Vatican under such conditions, and when he got a* reply saying that ft would be impossible to Dft tho restrictions Roosevelt cabled saying that the visit was impossible. , Affair Creates Sensation. The affair bas created a tremendous sensation here. It 1b learned that Col.’ Roosevelt had made no arrangement whatever to visit the Methodists here. The only audience' which he had arranged was with the king. -The distinguished American felt that as an American citizen, it was to say the least unfair for anyone to attempt In any way to hamper his movements and he felt that was tbe effect of the conditions Imposed by the Vatican. The history of the negotiations is about as follows: While at Cairo Mr. Roosevelt re­ ceived the following telegram from a city hospital, something that has Ambassador Lelshman, dat^d March been agitated for several years with­ 23: “Mgr.

In his address, which met the hearty approval of the 2,000 railroad em­ ployes, the president condemned the boycott and sympathetic strike, but put his approval on intelligent labor organizations. His speech bristled with sharp points and cut both ways. In indorsing union labor he declared with force that be put “above everything the right of every man to labor as he will, to earn the wages that he will, and if be chooses to stay out of labor organizations, well and good." He warned his hearers that his ex­ perience in dealing with labor men had convinced him that “the best course is to talk right out and tell them what you believe to be tbe truth. They will accord you the compliment of sin­ cerity and a desire to reach the truth. “If 1 did not talk right out and tell you what I thought," said the presi­ dent, “you would not have the respect that 1 hope you will have for me when I tell you what 1 believe to be the truth." tenet* usual!)

FIFTEEN GIRLS ARE From Windows In Panic After Explosion of 8taam Chicago, April 5.—Fifteen girls were injured more or less seriously by leap­ ing to the groufid from windows and from short fire escapes and others were considerably bruised In a spec­ tacular panic which followed an explo­ sion of steam In the basement of the Central Steam Laundry Company. The affair recalled in some particu­ lars the holocaust in the store of the L.

Other girls clustered at the windows, screaming for help. A few of those on tbe second floor Jumped unhesitatingly and were picked up from the cement sidewalk, groan­ ing with pain of injuries. Although there was no actual Are. an alarm waa sent in, and the firemen did much in' rescuing terror-stricken employes from dangerous positions on fire es­ capes. The explosion is said to have been caused by a weak elbow in a six-inch pipe. A long hiss of steam, like the scream of a siren whistle, followed the blast and added to the fright of the nearly two hundred girls at work on the upper floors. Hot, white vapor quickly permeated the entire building, and swirled about the lower floors like fcg. Some were burned by it. Released on Orders From Sec­ retary Dickinson. •tamping Out Bee Disease.

BROWN, Pharmacist. DRUGS The census begins April 15 and must completed in thirty days. The enumerators will weir a badge inscribed “United States Census, 1910." The law requires every adult person to furnish the prescribed information, but alsoproviaes that it shall be treat­ ed confidentially, so that no injury can come to any person from answer­ ing the questions. The Census Bureau, prior to April 15, will distribute to every farm owner and tenant in this state a blank or schedule containing the Census ques­ tions relative to farm operations and equipment. This should be filled . up, If possible, not later than the morning of April 15. but if anyone has been unable to fill it up by that time, he should do it as soon afterwards as he can. People who do not speak English or whqdo not understand the schedule completely should get help from others, if possible, in filling it up. The President has issued a procla­ mation, calling on all citizens to co­ operate with the Census and assuring them that it has nothing to do with taxation, army or jury service, com­ pulsory schoorattendance, regulation of immigration, or enforcement of any law, and that no one can be injured by answering the Inquiries. . It is of the utmost importance that the farm census of this state be com­ plete and correct. , Therefore every farm owner and tenant should promptly, fully, andaccuratelyffll up the "Advance Farm Schedule" ana carefully preserve it for the enumerator when he calls.

There is nothing you can buy for so little money that will make such an improvement as wall paper. Call and New Paper Von W. Fumiss ---- 1 a fair crop of corn. As high as 700 bushels of potatoes and seventyfive bushels of corn to the acre have been grown in this way. The corn usually has to be hoed ones, but the potato vines so nearly coyer the ground that not much working of the oora is required. By the time the corn needs the ground the potatoes are ripe, while the corn is in the shock before it is time to dig the potatoes. Sometimes part of the potato, patches are sown with millet or sorghum be­ fore the last cultivation, this making a good crop of feed and not hurting the potatoes. The onion patches al­ so grow corn and melons. In the orchard, which comprises eight acres, small fruit*, potatoes and truck are raised. The farm is situated seven miles from a town of 2,500 people, and the reader will see at a glance that this must mean low prices and heavy expense in hauling. What he might do with the same tract or one of ten acres located within two miles of a city of 25,000 it would not be.difficult to forecast. In speaking of his work the owner says: “I think I have found a remedy for hard times. Any man can pick up ten or twenty acres. On ten acres he can. make a living; on twenty acres he can get rich. I can't under­ stand why a man will live in a city and work for wages that do not give him a fair living when he can walk out a hundred miles or so and get a farm like mine and be independent" MRS.

She was with her husband in a number of Congregational pastor­ ates in Michigan, where the greater part of Mr. Waterman’s active life was spent. Mrs. Waterman lived in Nash­ ville from 1897 to 1899 and during thfc two years of her life spent here, won many friends. Among the Michigan towns where she lived are Marshall, Grand Blanc, Charlevoix, East Tawas, Ovid. Ban­ croft, Baldwin and Nashville. To thousands of Michigan people she was known for unusual healthfulness and a disposition of contentment under all circumstances. She was born in 1842 In Persia. Her father was Rev. William R. Stocking, missionary. She came to the United' States when a girl of twelve and was educated in New Eng­ land. She married Rev. Alfred T. Waterman in 1865 and survived him only three months.

Series of Articles. The News starts this week a series of articles on poultry raising, whic£i ought to be of great interest to a large number of our readers. The articles, which comprises a “Home Course in Poultry Keeping,” are written by Milo M. Hastings, Commercial Poul­ try Expert of the United States De­ partment of Agriculture, author of “The Dollar Hen," and formerly Poultryman of the Kansas Experiment Station. The thorough and practical nature of this seasonable course may be judged by the topics of the nine two-column articles into which it is divided,as follows: I.—What Branch of Poultry Business? II.—What Breed of Chickens to Keep. III.— > Poultry Houses and Furniture. IV.— The Modern Science of Incubation. V.—The Rearing of Chickens. VI.— Diseases of Chickens. VII.—Egg Production. VIII.—Marketing Poul­ try Products. IX.—Seasonal Review of the, Work. This series of articles will alone be worth the price of The News, for a year, and should be read with care and preserved by all who are interested in the subject of poultry raising. Owing to the high prices of food stuffs which now prevail, many people are going into tne breeding of poultry, both to supply their own table with eggs and fowls and to bene­ fit from the profits obtained in putting them on the market, so that we con­ sider this a seasonable time to give our readers the benefit of this useful, readable and authoritative course, prepared by a poultry breeder who knows both the scientific and the practical, every-day side of the sub­ ject. These articles should be read and studied by the practical allaround farmer, as well as by the town dweller who has a little plot of ground and wants to raise chickens. Read the articles and then preserve them. You will find much of practical value in them. MAN AND TWENTY ACRES. A bulletin lately put out by the deCrtment at Washington tells of a rmer of Pawnee county, Neb., who has made an unusual success in the farming of a very unpromising twenty acre tract. The owner came from Switzerland ten years ago, worked out until he saved *275 when be bought the tract in question for *12.50 an acre, and it was conceded to be the poorest land in the neighborhood, cov­ ered with brush and small trees. He cleared it up and developed it along intensive lines until today he has it all paid for. a neat house on it with stone basement barn and other out­ buildings, and has been offered *2,500 for it. He has lately made three pleasure trips to Colorado and spent three months of last year In Switzer­ land. His annual net revenue from this small tract averages *1,000. The methods which the owner follows are of especial interest. The land is kept busy from spring until fall. At the last cultivation of potatoes, corn is planted between the rows. In this GARDNER-MAURER Popular Young People United I Marriage at Nuptial High Mass Monday Morning. Nuptial High Mass was celebrated at St Cyril’s church in this village Monday morning, at which time Miss Lvdia Maurer, daughter of Peter S. Maurer of Maple Grove, was united in wedlock to Walter T. Gardner, son of David Gardner, the ceremony being performed by Rev Fr. Linskey of Hastings. The groom was accom­ panied by Julius Maurer, a brother of the bride, and the bridesmaid was Miss Lena Amelia Maurer, a sister of the bride. After the ceremony a wed­ ding breakfast was served at the home of Peter Maurer, sr., in Maple Grove. The guests from out of town were Mr. and Mrs. Charier Maurer and son and Miss Anna O’Toole of Battle Creek. The bride and groom are both pop­ ular and worthy young people who have the esteem and respect of all who know them, and they have a host of friends who will wish them well in their new relations. They will begin housekeeping al once on the Dr. J. I. Baker farm in Maple Grove. The News joins with their many friends in sincere congratulations. WOMAN’S LITERARY CLUB.

She told of the intimate association of the two men, compared the quality of their work and likened them to two brilliant stars on the German horizon. “Walter Vander Vogeliveide” was recited by Edith Fleming, in her usual happy manner. Miss Mix-played “The Flatterer” pleasing the audience as ever. Adjourned to meet with Mrs. Cross in two weeks. The Men’s meeting at the M. E. church Sunday afternoon was in every way a success.

So Baraka was satisfied, but she never took her eyes from the following yacht, for she hoped that Krallnsky would come out and show himself.

He therefore opened the door for the Greek, followed him out and shut it behind him. Baraka and Spiro had disappeared; they were already in the launch, waiting. “Now what did they say. If it isn’t rude question?" asked the American. Logothetl repeated the short conver­ sation almost word for word. "He said that his name was Yuryl," he concluded. “That is George in Eng­ lish." “Oh, he's George, is he? And what’s his dead brother’s name, again, pleaseT* “Ivan. That la John. Before we part.

I wish you to know, as be­ tion there lurked, in spite of him, the less worthy thought, that singers and actresses were generally less squeam­ ish than women of the world about the little entanglements cf their In­ tended husbands. But now, at the very moment of meeting Margaret, he knew that if he found her very angry with him, he would simply listen to what she had to say, make a humble apology, state the truth coldly, and return to his own yacht with Baraka,, under her very' eyes, and in full sight of Lady Maud and Mrs. Rushmore. Besides, he felt tolerably sure that when Spiro failed to carry out the young Tartar girl's murderous instructions, she wowld forget all about the oath she had sworn by the "inviolable water of the Styx" and try to kill him with her own hands, so that it would be neces­ sary to take her away abruptly, and even forcibly. Before the Erinna had quite lost her way, Logothetl had his naphtha launch puffing alongside, and he got into It with Baraka and Spiro, and the Lancashire Lass had barely time to lower her ladder, while still moving slowly, before the visitors were there. Baraka bade Logothetl go up first, and trod daintily on the grated steps as she followed him. The chief mate and chief steward were waiting at the gangway. The mate saluted; the steward led the visitors to the main saloon, ushered them in and shut the door. Spiro was left outside, of course. Mr. Van Torp shook hands coldly with Logothetl; Baraka walked direct­ ly to Krallnsky. and then stood stone­ still before him, gazing up steadily into his eyes. Neither Margaret nor Mrs. Rush­ more was to be seen. Van Torp and Logothetl both watched the other two, looking from one face to the other. Krallnsky, with his eye-glass in his eye, surveyed the lovely young bar barian unmoved, and the silence lasted half a minute. Then she spoke in her own language and Krallnsky answered her, and only Logothetl understood what they said to each other. Prob­ ably it did not occur to Krallnsky that the Greek knew Tartar. "You are not Ivan. You are fatter, and you have not his eyes.” Logothetl drew a long breath. “No," answered Krallnsky. "I am Yuryl, his brother. I never saw you, but he told me of you.” "Where is Ivan?” "Dead.” The proud little head was bowed down for a moment and Baraka did not speak till several seconds had passed. Then she looked up again suddenly. Her dark eyes were quite treated Baraka as I would my own sister since I got her out of prison. any disagreeable talk about her." “Well, now," said the American slowly, *Tm glad to hear you say that, just in that way. I guess it’ll be all right about any remarks on board my. ship, now'you*ve spoken." "Thank you,” said Logothetl, mov­ ing towards the gangway. They shook bands with some cor­ diality, and Logothetl ran down the steps like a sailor, without.laying his hand on the man-rope, stepped oa board his launch and was off in a mo ment ' “Good-by! good-by, Miss Barrack and good luck to you!” cried Van Torp, waving his cap. Logothetl translated his words to Baraka, who looked back with a grate­ ful smile, as if she had not just heard that the man she had risked her life to find in two continents had been dead four months. "It was his portion," she said grave ly, when she was alone with Logo­ thetl on the Erlnna, and the chain was coming in fast. Van Torp went back to the main saloon and found' Lady Maud and Kralinsky there. She was apparently about to leave the count, for she was coming towards the door, and her eyes were dark and angry. “Refus,” she said, “this man is my husband, and inr.lsta that-I should take him back. I will not Will you kindly have me put ashore before you start again? My things are ready now.” . "Excuse me," answered Mr. Van Torp, digging his large thumbs into his waistcoat pockets, "there's a mis­ take. He's not your husband." “He Is, indeed!" cried Lady Maud, in a tone her friend never forgot "I am Boris Leven.” said Krallnsky in an authoritative tone, and coming forward almost defiantly. "Then why did you toil'the Tartar glri that your name was George?” asked Mr. Van Torp, unmoved. "I did not” "You’ve evidently forgotten. That Greek gentleman speaks Tartar better than you. I wonder where you learned it! He’s just told me you said your name was George." . "My name is George Borts," rwered Krallnsky, less confidently. He was not a coward, but he had never been face to face with Van Torp when he meant business, and the terrible American cowed him. _________ (Td BE CONTINUED.)

She turned, her head high, and went to the door, and no one hindered her from going out “Mons. Logothetl!” Lady Maud called him, and the Greek crossed the saloon and stood by her. "He is not the man. I see," she said, with a vague doubt in her voice. "No." Van Torp was speaking with Kra­ ilnsky In low tones. Lady Maud spoke to Logothetl again, after an instant in which she drew a painful breath and grew paler. "Miss Donne knows that you are qd board.” she said, "but she wishes me to say that she will not see you, and that she considers her engagement at an end, after what you have done.” Logothetl did not hesitate. “Will you kindly give a message to Miss Donne from me?" he asked. “That quite depends on what it la,” Lady Maud answered coldly.

The Village Poultryman, The villager I would by all means advise to keep.standard bred poultry and to take an interest in poultry breeding and poultry ahown. From the nature ot his surroundings he is obliged to keep his fowls yarded, and. as the time be spend.**, with his chick­ ens is recreation, the more individual care, which he will And it desirable to give fancy fowls, will not be be­ grudged. The production of poultry products to sell at ordinary market prices is always profitable for the farmer, for on the free range plan of his poultry keeping labor and food costs are both milch reduced. Poultry keeping can also be made profitable when engaged cause of the large number of chickens to be attended to, the labor can be re­ duced to a systematic basis and will require but-very little time per fowl. On some of the well known egg farms one man feeds and cares for from 2,000 to 3.000 bens. The village poultry plant where but a few dozen fowls are kept must neces­ sarily have a larger feed bill than the farmer and a higher labor expense per fowl than either farm er com­ mercial poultry plant For these rea­ sons the villager who hires a man to take care of his poultry or expects it to earn wages for his own time is, if the product is sold at ordinary market rates, very likely to be disappointed. Now, if the villager takes up fancy poultry breeding and devotes his time to the art he bas excellent chances of becoming well known as a breeder and making a good profit in the business. Meanwhile he should have enough love ftfr his work so that he will be content to get back a little more than his actual money outlay and give his time for the pleasure of the work and the hopes of profits later on.

I presume there will be some who read this course in poultry keeping who will be desirous of engaging in poultry production as a business. To those I would say that after many years of precarious existence poultry farming is now established ns a*sound branch of agriculture. Although there Is no greater money to be made from poultry than from many other branch­ es of modern scientific agriculture, there is something about the business that has induced large numbers of ig­ norant people to invest tbelr savings in poultry ventures, hopelessly bury­ ing their money in expensively equip­ ped plants designed by themselves or other* equally ignorant of the business. As is generally recognized, the only sensible plan for one who proposes to go into poultry keeping as a business is to begin in a small way, either in a village or on a farm, and keep poultry for a few years in conjunction with some other occupation. If be is suc­ cessful in this, it will then be time to consider the keeping of poultry on a more elaborate scale. A few general re­ marks on commercial poultry farming I will append, however, as a matter of general interest The branch of poultry keeping that nas proved most universally success­ ful in a large way is egg farming. The broiler farms have almost invariably been failures, and the principle is now pretty thoroughly recognized that the broiler should be considered as a by­ product of tbe egg business. Just as sklmmllk is a byproduct of the produc­ tion of butter. Half or more of all chicks hatched will be cockerels and must be disposed of as broilers, for with Leghorns and other egg types of fowls male birds are worthless if al­ lowed to mature. This large surplus of broilers from egg farms and from the general farm of the country is suf­ ficient to meet the demand and to re­ duce the price to a point which will permit of little profit to the man who produces broilers, exclusively. The idea of the broiler business as attempted fifteen or twenty years ago was to produce chickens during the winter and early spring season by the use of incubators and brooders and secure fancy prices at the season of the year when no young stock was coming from the general farm. This business, which did not prove success­ ful then, would be even more Imprac­ tical now. as our modern methods of cold storage have become so efficient that it is entirely practical to freeze up a supply of inexpensive summer broil­ ers and to meet the demand the fol­ lowing winter and early spring with this cheaply produced gtock. Another phase of poultry production which la successfully prosecuted in limited localities is the growing of roaster*. In this style of poultry flesh pro­ duction heavier breed* of slowly ma­ turing fowls are used, and both sexes are allowed to reach maturity and are then marketed as fancy stock. Tbe poMible profits of the production of extra fancy market fowls tn this manthe custom of fatting or crate feeding farm grown cockerels a* now engaged In by poultry packers and by many farmer* as well. Orate or milk fed chicken* offer a prime quality of young poultry flesh, and hence, except for a few markets where roasters from cer­ tain communities already have a repu­ tation, It would hardly be advisable to take up this line of poultry production. A recent development In specialised poultry work is the public hatchery. This business Is usually conduced In conjunction with large poultry plant*. The shipping of day old chicks long distances by rail I* now quite a fad and bas probably been overdone. An­ other abuse of tbe public .hatchery is tbe aeHing of chick* from eggs of un­ certain origin. Beginners should not undertake public hatching.

MAURER $1.00 �>NEME COURT ORDER* NEW ARGUMENT* IN OIL AND TOBACCO CAB1B. DEATH OF BREWER IS CAUSE Left Only Seven Justices to Decide as Justice Moody !s Barred—Action . Causes Stocks to Take a Jump Upward. Washington, April 11.—The Stand­ ard Oil and Tobacco cases were reas­ signed for argument by the United fiuitoe Supreme court The reargument of these eases camca as the direct death of Justice Brewer. .This noted jurist died just a few days after the Standard Oil case had been argued. As Justice Moody iWas unable to participate In the con­ sideration of these cases, only seven justices were left to give a decision In these cases. Tbe fstet that the cor­ poration tax cases were not set for reargument is taken to mean that a decision will be announced in regard to the constitutionality of the law authorizing it within a short time. Wickersham Is Surprised. Attorney General Wlckersham was as much surprised as anyone at the sudden turn In the fight against these corporations.

It Is regarded as Im­ probable that such a motion for rear­ gument before next term will be made. Only three more weeks of this term remain for hearing the argument of cases, although the court has come in before Its -adjournment about the first of June, to hear arguments In a particular case.

The last number on the Nashville lecture course comes on Friday eve­ ning of next week, und is to be' given by Hon. P. T. Colgrove of Hastings, who will discuss the subject of “Re­ ligion and Fraternity,’’ being a dis­ cussion of the relation between the church and the fraternal societies. Mr. Colgroye is both a church-mem­ ber and a "joiner," and has made a study of the subject which well quali­ fies him to handle bis subject in an intelligent, manner. The jieople of Nashville and vicinity should turn out to the capacity of the opera house to hear this lecture. The base ball fans of the village Held a meeting at the Nashville Club parlors Friday evening and started a movement toward getting things in shape for the coming season. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Len W. Feighner, presi­ dent; E. V. Barker, vice president: E. V’. Smith, secertary: Menno Wenger, treasurer; Noah Wenger, R. C. Town­ send and Dr. W. A. Vance, directors: Von W. Furniss, C. A. Hough and O. G. Munroe, soliciting committee. The manager has not yet been select­ ed, but will be in the near future. New suits will be purchased for the team and everything will soon be in shape to start the season. Janitor George Perry of the opera house underwent a new' experience the other day that beat anything in the shape of a surprise that he ever went through in the civil war. He was cleaning the stovepipes at the opera house and carried a long section which was riveted together out into the alley to dump the soot out of it, when he felt it strike something above his head and on looking up to see what he had run foul of was surprised to see a sheet of flames issuing from the upper end of the pipe. He knew there had been no tire in the stove for some time and could hot imagine why the pipe was so furiously burning out, until he hapsened to notice that the pipe'was in contact with an unpro­ tected electric light wire, which’ac­ counted for the conflagration. George fortunately had on a heavy pair of gloves, which prevented him’ from be­ ing affected by the current, which would otherwise have probably put him out of commission for a time.

When his two brothers were cash­ iered. Boris resigned, entered the dip­ lomatic service, married Lady Maud Foxwell, and was killed by a bomb in St Petersburg. John -and George separated In America when they were tired of punching cattle. John was something of a naturalist and was by far the most gifted of the three as well as the most daring.

But since It had bean Boris', the law was obliged-to declare that the residue of the money, after paying the debts, was the property of Countess Leven. Boris’ widow. Lady Maud thus found herself in possession of a considerable fortune, for she accepted the Inheritance when she was assured that it would go to the Russian crown if she refused it. The wealth Lady Maud thus com­ mands enables her to carry much further than formerly j the peculiar form of charity which she believes to be her own Invention, if it may be properly called charity at all, and which consists in making it worth while and agreeable to certain unfor­ tunate people to live decent lives In quiet corners without starving, in­ stead of calling to them to -come out from behind the virtue-curtain and be reformed in public. It is a very ex­ pensive charity, however, and very hard to exercise, and 'will never be popular; for the popular charities are those that cost least and are no trou­ ble Mme. Konstantinos Logotheti is learning French and English on the Bosphcrus with her husband, and will mase a sensation when he-brings her to London and Paris. On. the day of his marriage in Constantinople Logo­ theti received a letter from Lady Maud telling him how sorry she was that she had not believed him that day on the yacht at Scaletta, and say­ ing that she hoped to meet his wife soon. It was an honest apology from an honest woman. He received a letter a few days later from Margaret, and on the same day a magnificently printed and reck­ lessly Illustrated booklet reached him, forwarded from Paris. The letter was from Margaret to tell him that she also took back what she had thought about Baraka and hoped to see him and her before long. She said . she was glad, on the whole, that he had acted like a lunatic, because it was likely that they would both be happrior. She herself, she said, was go­ ing to be married to Mr. Van Torp at St George's. Hanover square, before sailing for New York, where she was going to sing at the opera after Christmas. If he should be in town then she hoped he would come and bring .his wife. The booklet was an announcement, .interleaved with line etchings, to the effect that “The Mme. da Cordova and Rufus Van Torp Company" would open thelf new opera house in Fifth avenue less than two years hence with a grand Wagner festival, to last two months, and to include the per­ formance of "Parsifal" with entirely new scenery, and the greatest living artists, whose names were given. Mr. Van Torp had told the -diva that he would like her to choose a wedding present which she really wanted, adding that he bad a few things for her already. He produced some of them, but some were on pa­ per. Among the latter was a house in Wandering Alone In Search of Plants and Minerals.

He said he did not give her the Lancashire Lass because it wasn’t quite new”—having been about ten months in the water—but he had his own reasons,-, one of which was that the yacht represented a senti­ ment to him, and was what he would have called a “souviner.” But if she could think of anything else she fan- good man had felt that it would not fine gentleman in his way, had ordered it to be sold, when a good opportunity offered, and directed that the money should be given to the poor Greeks in London, under the supervision of Lady Maud Leven. the Turkish ambassador and the Greek minister; as a Committee.

It's ever so much more glorious than Wuon I last saw it!" “It’s been cut since then,” observed Mr. Van Torp. "It ought to have a name of its own! I’m sure it’s more beautiful than many of the named crown jewels!” She felt half hypnotised as she gaxed into the glorious depths of the great stone. 'Thsnk yofi,” she cried, "thank you so’ vary much. Pm gladder to have It than all the other things." And thereupon she threw her mag­ nificent arms around Rufus Van Torp’s solid neck and kissed his cool flat cheek several times; and it seemed quite natural to her to do so; and she wished to forget how she had once kissed, one other man, who had kissed her.

Absolutely Authentic Figures That Truly May Be Said to Stagger American Enterprise. The other day I was glancing over the condensed statistics oi the earn­ ings of a number o* the largest indus­ tries tn America. These figures told such a c.arvelous story of fortune and success that one is almost startled to read them. Ten or twenty years ago the electri­ cal industry, the photograph Industry, and even' the locomotive and car­ building industries were obscure and unimportant. But within a space of time that Is within the memory, probably, of every one who reads this article, these Indus-: tries nave ueveloped to such propor­ tions that every year they are creating enormous fortunes. A few years ago George Westing­ house was unknown. Then he started the Westinghouse Electric Company. As more uses were found for the elec- ' trie current and means for employing It were perfected, the business of the Westinghouse company increased so fast and it* profits became so enor­ mous that actually within only a little more than a decade It has paid to Mr. Westinghouse and the men who be­ came associated with him the great fortune of >26,000,000 In dividends. Even greater have been the net • earnings of another large electrical manufacturing concern, the General' Electric Company. Already these earn­ ings amount to 147,000,000. The great railroad expansion in the United States has taken place largely within recent years, and this expan­ sion has created two mammoth Indus­ tries—those devoted to building en­ gines and those which build cars. Here, again, figures tell the remark­ able story. The American Locomotive Company in only six years has made the Immense sum of 132.000,000 for Its stockholders. The American Car & Foundry Com­ pany In the same length of time has paid out >30,000,000 in dividends, . Undoubtedly you appreciate that the kodak business in America is a large one; but did you know that the East­ man Kodak Company of Rochester, N. Y., has paid dividends on its common stock alone of 120,000,000 in only four years? Think of It! I venture to say that >100 Invested in any of these industries when they were in the earlier stages of their de­ velopment Is worth >10,000 to-day The facts which I have given you are undeniably Interesting in themselves.

He even laid down his newspaper in his Interest. "No, she’s entirely sane," said Mrs. Shackleton. “No crazy woman could be such a good seamstress as Miss Balm! That lavender gownvahe has just finished for me looks as though it came. from Paris and she made It in three days at $2.50 a day! I guess lt‘B just her vivid imagination!" “It's something vivid and spectacu­ lar!" observed Shackleton. ’ “Maybe ahe does it to keep you amused ” “Oh, my, no!" replied his wife. “Sometimes she will sew - along and not say a word, and then other day* she will Just begin to talk. I don’t be­ lieve I told you about the lettuce, did I? Well, once when she lived in St Paul, Miss Balm was sewing for a woman whose husband and brother were scientists. She didn’t know Just what brand of science .they made a specialty of. but at any rate they were fond of lattuce salad for luncheon and insisted on having It fresh. So they had a brass traylike dish .on the tabie filled with a specially prepared earth. There were chemicals or something In that earth, you know, and when they would come In to luncheon the woman’s -hueband would take a hand­ ful of lettuce seed from his pocket and carelessly scatter it over the earth and the brother would pick up the water bottle and sprinkle it and then they would sit down to their soup and chops and things, and by tbe time the salad course was due that lettuce would be* Just right to pick.” "Now, Evangeline!" interrupted Shackleton, "stop right there! I ex­ pect this was the point where Miss Balm burst into maniacal laughter and attacked you with the shears, wasn’t it?" '•■She did not!" sold his wife. “She went right on taking in the seams in my pink waist. And another time when the natural gas supply In the range failed and there was company coming to dinner tbe scientist hus­ band just said: "Ob, never mind a little thing like that!" And he went out and packed a lot of snow and Ice hard and they did their baking and boiling on that. Miss Balm said he explained that intense heat and in­ tense cold had just the same effect, "Why," demanded Shackleton, stern­ ly, "do you encourage her to relate these atrocious impossibilities?" "Why, I don’t!" declared Mrs. Shackleton. “It wouldn't be polite to interrupt, so I Just let her go on. Be­ sides. I am always wondering what she will say next. She had an uncle once, who was a wonderful man. He was fond of animals and he had trained the chickens so that if he played The Palms’ on his cornet In ordinary time they would march by in single file to the place where he fed them corn—and if he played it in rag­ time they would fall over themselves getting to the cornmeal mush bug. The cows—" "See here!” expostulated Shackle­ ton. “that woman ought to be broken of the habit of romancing!’’“Well, you do it." suggested Mrs. Shackleton, sarcastically. "I’d like to sec you." That was why Shackleton made a point of coming home to luncheon the next day. .He was curious about the remarkable Miss Balm and anxious to meet her. Miss Balm proved to be an entirely inoffensive, mild-looklng person and it was some time before Shackleton got a chance to begin the cure. “Yes," he said at last. “I certainly believe it is better for children to have something regular to do. When I was a kid each of us had our tasks. I remember how my brother Tom hated his. His work every morning was to take a bushel basket and go around the bouse collecting the family diamonds, which he carried to the woodshed. There was a big pile of sawdust there and after dumping them into a washtub of soapy water be would dry and clean them In the sawdust. He particularly hated moth­ er’s diamond rope because it was 25 yards long and It took him so long to brush out the sawdust from the set­ tings. Please pass the rolls, Evan­ geline.” Miss Balm was staring at him. 'This weather," went on Shackle­ ton, reminiscently, “reminds me of the time Tom and I walked 125 miles one afternoon on a wager. The snow banks were so deep that when we broke through you couldn't see th* tops of our heads and it was cold—38 degrees below zero. We got along rapidly, though, because we wore our track euita—something like bathing suits, you know—and so we weren't weighted down. They gave us a ban­ quet that night and then we danced till morning. Oh, those were great days! When Shackleton came home that evening he found his wife in tears. "Miss Balm," ahe wept, "says she can't come to me any more, not even to finish up! You—you scared her with your wild talk this noon!" "Pooh!" scoffed Shackleton, joy­ ously, "she's just jealous of my su­ perior inventive abilities!

Peruvians have awakened to the possibilitles of development of the re­ sources of one of the most wealthy countries In the world In natural heri­ tage. and they are welcoming the friendly Influx of foreign capital with the same ardor exhibited by their an­ cestors In defeating a like invasion. The first product that one associates with the name of Peru is guano, than which no more powerful fertiliser rad stimulator of vegetable life exists. Credit for the discovery of the com­ mercial value of the Immense beds of guano that line the rocky shores of the South American republic is given to Baron Humboldt. From his time to the present the ex­ ploration of these ornithological de­ posits has been going an steadily, rad now the richest beds are in danger of being exhausted. The government of late has controlled the Industry rad given licenses for working the beds from April to September. During the rest of the year Ahe Industry is pro­ hibited to allow replenishing by the penguin, seagulls and pelicans. The right of exportation is now held by a big British corporation. It Is estimated that more than 11,­ 900.000 tons of this modern Peruvian wealth have been exported since Its value was discovered by the great German scientist. The three Chincba Islands are considered the richest of the ancient beds, while Lobos de St. erra and Lobos de Afuero, off the north-coast of Peru, have the moat bountiful supply It present Parents! Stupidity. v A small and pale-faced boy of 9 was brought Into court by bls father, who complained that he could do nothing with the Isd, who rah away, and had been brought home from six, police stations. “Last week he took money out of his mother’s purse,” said the father. •'Oh! But his mother’s purse Is his own. we may almost say. The mother doesn’t want to send her boy away for that? Is that the worst you have to say against him?" said the Judge. Tbe Father.—He runs away from school. Judge.—•'Well, what boy doesn’t?" ” But he does It frequently," the father said. "Of course he does.” said the judge, “these are the natural pfovlivities of the small boy of a certain independ­ ence of character and enterprise. I really cannot come to your assistance. Here Is a little fellow with the face and expression of a cherub. You must keep him in order by the simple force of example rad innate authority that a parent possesses over his child. Wouldn't, you like to run away from something you didn't like?” The Father—“Yes, I should.” Judge.—“Of course, we all should.” “Pretendlnq." Practical education is the fashion of the day. The boy at school is con­ fronted with facts. Fancies which soften rad beautify life are thought superfluous, and fairy talcs are often banished from the nursery. Not long ago a lady walked into a village school and reprimanded a teacher for teling the babies there a fairy story. Letters in the papers followed, and many agreed with the action of the visitor. To teach a child what was not “true" was said to be unpardon­ able. Nevertheless, to listen to stories which are not true -and to play games of pretense is. rad always will be. a part of the childish program.

Health I* Worth Saving and Some Nashville People Know How to Many Nashville people take their lives in their bands by neglecting the kidneys when they know these organs need help. Sick Kidneys are responsi­ ble for a vast amount of suffering and ill health, but there is no need to suf­ fer nor to remain in danger when all diseases and aches and pains due to weak kidneys can be quickly and per­ manently cured by the use of Doan’s Ki.dney Pills. Here is a Nashville citizen's recommendation. G. ,J. Smith, Gregg & Lentz St., Nashville. Mich., says: ‘‘I strongly recommend Doan’s kidney Pills, a’» they helped me wonderfully. My kid­ neys troubled me for some time and my back ached intensely. There was an extreme lameness across my loins and I often had pains through my kidneys. Doan’s Kidney Pills, pro-, cured from Furniss’ drug store, re­ lieved me and I have used them on several occasions since then with the best of results. Other members of my family have taken this remedy for' backache and kidney trouble and in! each case benefit has been received.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

Information has been laid before him Indicating the fact that a combination has been formed between a number of operators to buy up all of the re­ maining unused raw cotton produced in the United States during the crop year of 1909-1910 and that, as the re­ sult of the operations of this pool, the price of this cotton has already been advanced so largely in ex^s of the normal price that the cotton nfanufacturers had greatly reduce'’ their manu­ facture rather than buy at this ex­ orbitant price, throwing out of employ­ ment upward of 25 per cent of the cotton mill operators of the United States, thus resulting In the monopolizatlon of the entire visible supply of raw cotton In the market and the diminution In the commerce of cotton J goods. The attorney general there­ upon gave Instructions to have the matter Investigated by the grand jury In the southern district of New York, and subpoenas were Issued which mark the commencement of a thor­ ough Investigation by the government j of the alleged pool. “It Is anticipated that interesting disclosures will be made Into the com­ position and management of this com­ bination.** Ccnsternatlon In New York.

Catarrh is a blood or constitutional disease, and in order to cure it you must take internal remedies. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is taken internally, and acts directly on the blood and muc­ ous surface. Hall’s Catarrh Cure is not a quack medicine. It was prescribed by one of the best physicians in this country for years and is a regular prescription. It is composed of the best tonics known, combined with the best blood purifiers, acting directly on the mucous surfaces. The perfect combination of the two ingredients is what produces such wonderful results in curing Catarrh. Send for testi­ monials free. F. J. CHENNEY & CO., Props.. Toledo, O.

Michigan has been a severe sufferer, although some raisers still have hopes of being able to produce a partial crop.

An Adventure in Photography. Frederick Courtland Hardy, ex­ member of Mrs. Johnny Folkstonee ■mart set of Boston, ex-cotillion lead­ er, yachtsman and clubman, was on bls way to Russia to take charge of one of the American Trading Company’s ■tores at Stryetensk.

They were out early the next morn­ ing and spent the entire day tramping about the fascinating Streets of the Japanese city. "Did you bring your camera with you?" Neville asked Hardy, as the latter appeared on the veranda of the I hotel, where he found his new-made friend waiting. "There’s a deal to photograph and these people are cer­ tainly picturesque, even If they aren’t much else.” “Will they allow one to take pho­ tographs?" asked Hardy. "Oh. certainly.

T be­ lieve 1’11 take it. If J’m not careful, I shall get all my films covered with babies." He opened his camera and rolled out the bellows. Then he etrolled back and forth for several mo­ ments, gazing Into the finder, as he tried to decide on the composition of the view that he would take. He pressed the . bulb and was closing the Instrument when a Japanese in Euro­ pean dress stepped up to him and laid a detaining hand upon his arm. “Yon must give me that camera, sir." said the Japanese quietly. In per­ fect English. Hardy logked about in amazement. Naturally his first thought was that he was being robbed. “Don’t try anything of that kind here, my man." he replied, “or I’ll give you into the bands of the police." The threat was suggested by the presence of two police officers who were standing near, evidently watch­ ing the scene. The Japanese now called to them tn his own tongue and they approached. T am an officer of the law," he ■aid, "and you will be taken into cus­ tody if you resist I beg that you will not compel me to have the camera ta­ ken from you forcibly." Hardy rarely allowed himself to exhibit- excitement. "Better hand it to him." advised Neville. "He Is evidently laboring un­ der some mistake, which the authori­ ties will be Jolly well anxious to rec­ tify when they find it out" Hardy handed over bls camera. “Hl go with you to the police sta­ tion.” he said to the officer. "Do not put yourself io the trouble." said the Japanese, "the police will know where to find you when they want you. The instrument will be re­ turned to you. when we are through with it. at the Grand hotel." “Well. I call that cool!" said Hardy, as he stood watching the three men. who were walking off with his cam­ era. Til have that instrument back if I have to stay here a month and make an Internsttanal affair of It. I wonder what they wanted of it What do you think?" ”1 haven’t the least idea,” replied Neville. "Probably they have beard that some other country prohibits ta­ king photographs. As I told you, they are a nation of monkeys." Mr. Hardy found his camera on his return to the hotel, with a note stating that the films would be returned to him In the morning, developed. The ipcldent, which had been conducted in a masterful manner, threw a new light on Japan, it led him to believe that this was something more than a comic-opera country, and that the inhabitants were not all babies. CHAPTER II, Searched by the Police. ’The Anglo-Saxons are the only peo­ ple who have any Idea of personal lib­ erty," remarked Hardy, as the two men stood on the steps of the hotel, waiting for their Jlnrlklsha to arrive. "Fancy the authorities In New York or London taking away your camera and developing the films. Just to see what pictures you have token I Well, I got my camera back all right, and I'm going to consider myself tn luck because I get my films developed free of charge. I wonder if there's any­ thing else this obliging people would like to do for me before 1 go away?’' At this moment the jlnriktsha came up and the newly-made friends start­ ed out for their night exped.Uon about There were Innumerable paper lan­ terns. of course, and one quarter of the town was lighted as if for- a lawn They were sitting on the floor' In the back room of a tea-house, listen­ ing to the music furnished by three geishas, when they were arrested. Hardy had felt it a privilege to go into this place, because his compan­ ion assured him that it was the real thing, and not one of those resorts that are run for foreigners. This state­ ment was borne out by the fact that the dozen or more patrons whom they found there were natives* with the ex­ ception of one. a little foreigner who ■poke bad English, and who, as Hardy remembered afterward, sat offensively .close to him. This man bad a pro­ fuse. ahapeless beard and bad teeth and persisted in drawing Hardy and Neville into conversation. The American took a dislike tn him from the first "Don't resist, don’t resist," whis­ pered Neville, as four policemen stepped up to them. “It won’t do you the least good in the world, don’t you know. They've made some bloom­ ing mistake, and when they find out what it is they’ll do everything in their power to make amends.” "I haven’t the least idea in the world of resisting,” replied Hardy good-naturedly; “this is really inter-, estlng. Whom do they take us for, I wonder?” They were escorted to a cab and whirled off to a large modern-appear­ ing building of stone, whose' front was lighted by an electric globe. They walked up a broad flight of stairs and entered a room, in the center of which a middle-aged Japanese, in the uni­ form ol a general in the army, sat at a table writing. He was a corpulent man. In whose shrewd eyes and stern features European training contended with Mongol cunning. He spoke for a very few momenta in a low tone with a subordinate, and, evidently as a result of this conference. Neville was led from the room. He returned after about 20 minutes and Hardy glanced at him curiously. If anything unpleasant bad been done to him. it did not show in his face—a fact which the American attributed to the oth er’s British Imperturbability. Hardy himself was now led away. He was taken Into a room about ten feet square, with bare floors and not an article of furniture. He found him­ self alone with two Japanese, one of whom addressed him Immediately in a language that be did not under­ stand. "1 can not speak Japanese,” he re­ plied; "if you wish to talk with me. you will have to And some one who can speak English." T was not talking Japanese to you, as I think you know," replied his in­ quisitor, in absolutely perfect English. "You are too modest as to your really remarkable linguistic acquirements. But if it suits *you.to speak English at the 'present moment, 1 shall be most happy to oblige you. I am sorry to Inform you that you must submit to being searched.” "Now, really, wouldn’t that be car­ rying matters too far?” asked Hardy. ”1 had intended to take this thing good naturedly, as It Interests me; but searching me—I really think I shall enter a protest against that I am an American citizen, you know, and If any indignities are offered me, I shall not fall to demand redress." "Unfortunately, we have nothing to do with that feature of the case,” re­ plied the Japanese. "We are under orders and we trust you will not put us to the disagreeable necessity of using force." "Well, go ahead." said Hardy cheer­ ily, "and if you find anything out of the ordinary. I’ll eat it.” They stepped briskly up to him and began to run their hands rapidly and deftjy over his clothing and through his pockets. Az they worked, be talked. (TO BE CONTINUED.)

Hardy enjoying himself hugely. He took away with him a confused memory of dark, nar­ row streets swarming with Japanese, mostly babies; of occasional low build­ ings where something seemed to be going on inside; of steep acclivities at which it was necessary to get out and walk; and of steep declivities where the man horse leaned back at an an­ gle of 45 degrees and the muscles on his legs stood out in knots. “I say," cried Hardy to Neville, "If this thing ever gets iwij from him ‘“--■ti Kidney trouble has become so prevalent that it is not uncotn/w mon for a child to lx: w Elwyfc- born afflicted with —weak kidneys. If the child urinates too often, if the urine scalds the flesh, or if, when the child reachesan age when it should be able to control the passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wet­ ting, depend upon it, the cause of the diffi­ culty is kidney trouble, and the first step'should be towards the treatment of these important organs. This unpleasant trouble fa due to a diseased condition of the kidnevs and bladder and not to a habit as most people suppose.

The poultry house should be located upon the best drained soil available on the farm. The sandiest soil that will still grow crops is desired for poultry. If the poultry house be located on pure sand there will be no green crop or Insect life for the fowls to furnish feed and amusement, and then results will be little better than upon bare board floors. On the farm the hen should be sepa­ rated as far as possible from the hog­ pen, especially if heavy breeds are kept: otherwise the hogs in snapping at fowls that are stealing their feed may learn the taste of chicken flesh. Poultry may be placed near the or­ chard. but coops for young chicks should not be put under trees, especial­ ly with Leghorns, as the young stock will form the habit of roosting in the trees, and serious trouble will be experienced when the cold weather cornea on. It is usually impractical to locate poultry bouses so that the hens will not find the garden, and we must chose .between fencing the bens or the garden. A stone foundation is best for the poultry bouse that is permanently lo­ cated, but where stone is expensive this may be replaced by cedar, hem­ lock or Osage orange posts. Colony houses are best built on hemlock mud sills cut like sled runners so they may be moved to fresh ground. Floors may be constructed of rongh boards or cement. Cem-nt floors are excellent, but if well constructed are expansive. Cheaply constructed cemeat floors will not lash Board floors While Farmers are Scarce and are Making Big Money, There never was a better time for the town-dweller to get out of his drudgery and make himself independent than at the present. You can buy a farm by paying a small amount down and make the farm pay for itself within a few years and then you will be in shape to look the world in race and be,independent for the rest of your life.

The Assyria Farmer's Club was delightfully entertained at the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Tucker­ man, Saturday, April 23. A bountiful dinner was served al two o’clock to over one hundred . members and friends. The club was called together by President I. W. Cargo by singing the club song, “Blue Bell’s of Scot­ land.” Prayer by Rev. E. Morglson. Recitation by Alpha Dingman, ••Father I am Going to Leave the Farm,” was well rendered and was en­ joyed by all. It brought out a good moral for fathers to give the boys something to have of their own to interest them, if they want to keep them on the farm. Ettie Smith’s paper, “Our social duties—What are they?” was fine. It brought out many good points. The home is the vital spot and the things that will tend to develope its social atmosphere are the things to be de­ sired, such as good literature, music and cultivation of different abilities of its iomates and time for recreation. Discussion led by George Kent, “Feeding com in the bushel without husking,” was discussed by A. T. Shepard, L. Reams and several others who thought it brought the stock out better in the spring and saved tbe ex­ pense of husking. Violin duet, Hugh Jones and Rich­ ard Kent was good and they gave the second number. Recitation by William Cargo, “Raise a pig” taught us if we wanted an auto or anything else, all we had to do was to raise a pig. Paper by Mrs. A. D. Olmstead, “What leads to success,” was very instructive and showed each and every one of us just what to do to gain suc­ cess. We can not reach the golden round of lhe" ladder without vim energy and ability.—Ability was worthless without energy necessary to carry it out. Push clear the track. Even small abilities with great energy will accomplish more than the great­ est ability without energy. Grace Stanton sang in her pleasant way “When the Dewdrops Kiss the Daisies.” The club sane “Home Sweet Home” and adjot’mea to meet with Mr. and Mrs. I. W. Cargo the fourth Saturday in May. .

Having nothing bet­ ter to do, he lighted a cigarette and attempted to study it all out, standing there with his hands in his pockets. “I only hope they don’t keep this farce up till I miss my train.” he mused; "I have bought my ticket” He was not kept waiting long.

"Couldn't help It, my dear fellow," replied Neville. 'They haven't let me "But what do they suspect me of? What have I—what have we done?

This ad­ vantage is not great, however, as moat inexperienced people believe, for chick­ ens hatched in the winter are difficult to rear, and because of the evening up of -prices due to cold storage, aa re­ ferred to in a previous lesson, the use WELL FORMED BOGS SELECTED HATCHING. FOB of incubators for batching winter chicks is not particularly profitable. Tbe second Important advantage claimed for incubators is that of sav­ ing labor, or, in other words, they en­ able one person to batch a much larger number of chicks than would be pos­ sible with tbe use of hens. This claim is worthy of consideration. It is, fn fact, the chief reason why incubators have gained their present standing. As to the percentage of hatching and tbe vitality of the chicks, the aver­ age incubator, especially in the hands of the novice, will hardly equal the natural methods. The writer made an extensive study of the results obtained with Incubators by Kansas farmers. The results showed that about as many farmers failed with incubators ns suc­ ceeded with them. The percentage of eggs that batch either in incubators or with hens Is commonly overestimated. The extraor­ dinary hatches at poultry shows are usually arranged by setting two incu­ bators and testing/out the live eggs just before batching and putting them in tbe one machine. A 00 per cent hatch of all eggs set for the season is good enough. Many very large and successful poultry farms have lower averages. The advisability of purchas­ ing an incubatorwill {lepend upon many circumstances. All those wbo breed Leghorns will require incubators. With the Plymouth Rocks, Wyandotte* or Rhode Island Reds I should favor batching with bens until the poultry work grows to such size that this be­ comes impractical. Eggs For Hatching. There are many superstitious no­ tions prevalent regarding tbe relation of the shape of an egg to its vitality and the sex of tbe forthcoming chick­ en. Such notions have no ground in fact Eggs having weak shells that might become broken in the nest or unusually small eggs should be dis­ carded. If there are more eggs availa­ ble than we wish for a sitting it will be better to select tbe fresher eggs than to be overparticular about shape and appearance. Tbe eg»< for hatching should ba stored in a cool, dry location and shifted or rolled about occasion­ ally. Egg? exposed to freezing tempera­ ture If not actually frozen may still retain their vitality, but it is generally considered best to keep them at a tem­ perature between 40 and 70 degrees. If kept too warm eggs dry out rapid­ ly and will not hold their vitality, A good rule is not to set eggs over two weeks old.

Act 113 of the law of 1909, providing for the inspection and licensing of power boats plying on die inland lakes and streams of the state, should be made familiar to all boat owners. It is estimated that there are 10,000 small pleasure craft which must be equipped with lights and a whistle under the terms of the statute, while larger ones which carry passengers for hire must pay a license fee and comply with the requirements of the law. Capt. Dorin Elliott, the depart­ ment inspector, is making a canvass of the boats of both classes, with a view to enforcing the act. Dr. L. F.

The time has come when the state­ ment can be made that the state will not lose one dollar through the failure of the Chelsea Savings bank. When the bank failed the amount held be­ longing to the state was 8685,587.79. Of this amount 8497,680.55 has been paid, leaving a balance due of 8187,­ 907.24. As security for this amount there remains due on bonds held by the state 8192,000 not including the bond given by the Metropolitan Surety company that failed recently. If this company or tbe receiver of the bank make no further payments the entire amount due would be collected from the bonding companies. It is expect­ ed that tbe bank creditors will receive seventy or eighty cents on the dollar. and Drapery Department If it is the kitchen that needs new cov­ ering, we have the linoleum; if the bed­ room, we have the matting; if it’s a rug you need, we have a choice line that is right in price as well as in quality.

Editor News:—In my brief letter* to The New* Torn the north I have said but Bale if anything about fish­ ing. Therefore wilrdevotethis letter principally to that subject, and will call the reader’s attention to Agtr — igogeblc lake, known in this country as tbe “fisherman's paradise. ’’ • The lake has a somewhat peculiar name and it also has a history. The name is a Chippewa word, meaning deep water, ana the shores are the battle grounds and resting places of many Indian warriers. The lake is a regular inland sea. be­ ing fifteen miles long and varying from three to four miles in width, and it Hes about straight north and south. The south end of the lake is touched by the Chicago A Northwestern Rail­ road, and the north end by the Duluth South Shore Atlantic. A- mam­ moth hotel has. peen'built at the houth end, and it is here that the people from the large cities, who are possessed with plenty of the long green, are wont to congregate during the hot summer months and have a “time.” The north end of the lake, however, is more common; don’t put on so many airs. Two nice little towns have sprung up, Ballentine and Bergland, and it is here where the common every­ day people come to Vflsh”. And to say that they catch some too is putting it very mildly. “Why, ' said the landlady of the Ballentine House to the writer just as he had fin­ ished devouring a fair sized pickerel, “When we lived in Genesee county my husband would stop work any day anp drive off four or five miles into the country In the hot sun to go fishing. Sometimes he would get a few fish and sometimes not, more often not. Now we live on the bank of this beautiful lake where there is elegant fishing and if a customer comes here and calls for fish 1 have to buy them of the boys while George sits in the office with a few of his friends and plays ‘tunk’ or whatever you call it.” And she banged the dishes together in a manner that gave one the impression that she was thoroughly posted on the subject she was talking about and meant every word she‘said. But this “George” alluded to is no fool. Man is a funny animal and It is a mighty smart man who knows when he has got enough of anything. When there is an oversupply of wheat in the country we naturally look for prices to decline, and when a man hunts up against an oversupply of fish interest will decline. Now supposing you. Mr. Editor (we knpw you love lo fish) or any of your ritany renders could drive up to Thorn­ apple lake and in a couple of hours catch forty or fifty fish weighing all the way from five’ to twenty pounds, how long do you think you could keep the jig up and everything in good run­ ning order before you would tire of it, discard fishing from the calendar of your sports, and go to playing “tunk?” It is no easy matter to land so many big fish. Vou may have one tugging away on your line at the same moment that one you have’ previously caught is trying to flop out of the boat, and you are obliged to abandon your line, get astride of him and he takes you a merry spin around in the slimy water and by the time you get him to agree to be good, your rod is far out in the lake and you have to row for dear life to get it. ’ And all this time vou will see fish jumping out of the water and l>eckoning to you as much as to say, ••Row out this way. We are out here.” It is an amusing sight indeed lo watch the women fish, and the man who has never witnessed a lady fisher when she hooks a twenty pound fish has lost quite a lot of the humorous side of life. The scene enacted by far surpasses anything ever witnessed in vaudeville, is beyond description and we pass it. Originally there was no kind of fish in this lake but black bass, but about ten years ago, with the hopes of get­ ting more of a variety, the lake was planted with pickerel and the conse­ quence is, as one old native puts it. “The pickerel have completely swal­ lowed the bass.” So very few bass are taken and the lake is fairly bub­ bling over with these monstrous great pickerel. At this time of year they work up next to the shore and up the small streams and even into the rail­ road cuts. It is no uncommon thing for passengers to see them from the car window, and the other day one flopped out on the track and stopped a train of twenty cars‘heavily laden with iron ore. Whbn 1 sat down to write this letter I made a solemn vow that what little I did write to tell the truth though the heavens fall. For fear my last state­ ment may be questioned by some skep­ tical reader I will be a little more ex­ plicit and add that the engineer stop­ ped the train so that his tireman could catch the fish. At one time the boys had great sport walking along the track and shooting the fish, but the danger of hitting the game warden has become so great that the practice has been abandoned. It is an amusing sight to watch the new comers. Oh, how anxious and animated they are! They fear they are going to lose a golden moment. Early this morning I stood watching a party of Chicago boys loading into their boat their fishing tackle, lunch and beer, and by chance an old native stood at my elbow. It was raining a little. He watched the performance till the boat shot out from shore and then remarked, “Ugh, darn fools, must want to go fishing awful bad.” The weather must be superfine, old Boreas must be good and not a cloud dot the sky when the old natives go fishing. The lake is bounded on all sides by virgin forest and lofty hills and bluffs ana the scene presented to view at this season of the year is a beautiful one: the trees just putting forth their green foliage and shading its shores, and wildflowers blooming upon its banks, the birds singing and the-wild ducks floating leisurely on the smooth sur­ face of the water all presents a scene long to be rememltered. But oh, it is a dreary place Ln the winter. How do the people live here during the long winter months, did you ask? Just like muskrats. They see to it in the-fall that they have provis­ ions enough stored away to carry them through the winter, and when the snow gels so deep they can not navigate they tunnel from one house to another. By "means of these subteranean pass­ ages neighborly intercourse is kept up TME MEMBERS. Chicago, May 2.—An amazing story alleging bribery and corruption in the election of William Lorimer as United States senator was unfolded to State's Attorney Wayman by Representative Charles A. White ot St Clair county, a Democrat, who made a confession to the public prosecutor that he re­ ceived *1.000 for his vote. Charges that the breaking ot the sensational deadlock was accom­ plished by the wholesale buying of Democratic votes by the Lorimer forces at prices ranging from *1,000 to *2,000, were accompanied by furth­ er allegations from White that he had participated to the extent of *900 in the splitting up of the "Jack pot," a term be used to designate a '‘slush fund" alleged to have been collected for the defeat or passage of legisla­ tion. Steps for a Probe. The disclosures were followed by immediate steps on the part of the at thoritles to start Investigations, and tbe situation rapidly took on propor­ tion . that promise to develop into the biggest scandal Illinois has bad In decades. According to White's story, Lee O’Neill Browne, minority leader of the Illinois house, paid him *1,000 for having voted* for Lorimer, and that Robert E. Wilson, Democratic mem­ ber from Chicago, paid him the *900 additional which White claims to have received. Grand Juries to Investigate. Two grand jury Investigations—In Cook and Sangamon counties, where tbe money Is said by White to have been paid—will be the most Imme­ diate result of the charges. Upon their outcome depends largely wheth­ er Lorimer will be able to retain his seat or whether the toga will be torn from his shoulders. Under its rules the United States senate must expel any member who la found to have secured his seat by bribery. Dispatches from Washington Indicate that action at the capitol will depend on developments on the scene of actio! in llihiois. Tbe confession made by White brings to a bead vague rumors, afloat both at Spnngflefd and at Washington during the days of tbe senatorial dead­ lock, that certain Interests were using money to aid tbe election of Lorimer. Senator Lorimer scoffed at the story and pointed out that his ambition to wear the toga did not sprout until a week or two before he was elected. Attack a Surprise. "The attack is a surprise to me," be said. "1 do not understand It- I am sure that nobody gave any money to anyone in the legislature in my be­ half, to White or to anybody else.” btate’s Attorney Burke of Sanga­ mon county Issued subpoenas for White to appear before tbe grand jury . Springfield today. Attorney Burke asserts that If White makes confession that be took a bribe be will be Indicted and prosecuted. It has developed that labor circles for some weeks past have been cog­ nizant that White contemplated ma­ king a confession. White Is an old street car conductor, and some time ago declared to some of the members of the local unions tbat he was about to spring a sensation that would startle the state. Cry ••Blackmail.’’ Members of the assembly who were dragged into the scandal by White’s confession characterize the charges as “blackmail." With few exceptions all of them said that he was contemplat.ng the publlca-lon of a history of the inner secrets of the election of Senator Lorimer and of the manner In which legislation Is carried on at Springfield. Browne and Wilson said that White’s accusations were falsehoods from start to finish. In an Interview Mr. Browne said: "No money and no other thing of value was paid to me by Senator Lorimer or promised to me either for my vote or for the vote of anyone else, neither did 1 promise to pay at that or any other time any money or any other thing of value of any kind to any member or promise or repre­ sent that some one else would pay any money or any other thing of value for a vote for Senator Lorimer or a vote for anything else. “1 can say that neither Senator Lorimer nor any other man for him tried to use any coercion with member of my crowd.” Jury Indicts Alton Road.

They charge no more for hoard, tbe use of boats, fishing tackle, etc., than they do at many of the lakes in the south. Another excellent quality about them is they are alwavs willing to furnish plenty of ice ta put your fish? on. Many spring brooks empty into the lake which affords splendid tr^ut pas­ ture, and the forests bounding' the lake, especially on the north end, Is without doubt the best deer hunting ground in the state of Michigan today. Just a few moments ago I saw an Indian boy drawing a fish along through the sand, ana I will take the stand at any time, plank my hand on the dictionary and swear that the fish was as long as he was. But perhaps I have said enough about fishing. I am, like “George” jired of it anyway. Kindly allow me a few general remarks and we will stick the pin. During my ramblings of over three years in the lake Super­ ior regions I have met but very few Barry county men. One little inci­ dent, however, I cannot pass by. One beautiful day I stood on the little fish­ ing dock at Ballentine as a train rolled in from the west. A middle aged man sprang from a car and came running toward me, saying, “I have not seen you in twenty-five years but would have known you had I met you in China. I am F. J. Hoffman, and have played many days with you when we were boys together back in Maple Grove” The bell was ringing “all aboard.” and he yelled back aa he caught the rear car, “I "have not seen Maple Grove in twenty years.” As I watched the train go around the bend I could not help thinking how not only friends but families scatter. And now, friends, all my songs of the ?;reat wilderness for the present, at east, are sung! If in mv brief letters to you from the northland I have written anything that has been the means of entertaining you a moment I am satisfied. And as I close this, my last letter. I turn tJ bid farewell to many new made friends, to the great forest, the hills and the mountains, thi lakes and the rivers. Yet my expertenges among them will always be pleasant recollections to nge evrnwhen locks are grey and eyes are dim. And now as my feet turn homeward my feel­ ings and thoughts are perhaps some­ thing like those that lonely pilgrim traveller had when he shouldered his pack and started away On-his- home­ ward march from Beulah Land.

A sudden fear that the ship would founder and that be would be drowned, cooped up there In the cabin, seized him and he leaped, clambering, for the port-bole.

Every time the ship listed to starboard, it reached a tiny knot-hole and spouted for several feet in a hissing stream.

It rose to his ankles, to his knees— and he got upon the table, and sat there- holding to the edges. The wind began to subside somewhat, and he could hear the ghostly, unearthly noises made by the wreck itself; moanlngs and groanlngs, creak Ings, knockings, mutterings, whisperings, the gurgle and seething of the water as it rushed In and out with ‘ the rhythmical listing of thfa ship. He climbed to the port-hole, opened It and looked out. The early sun was gleaming redly on a sullen heaving sea. The waves were whitening over a long reef. Perhaps, if be could pro­ cure something in the shape of a stick or pole that he could poke out of the window, with his shirt tied to ft—he looked about, and. to his surprise, dis­ covered that the door was partly open. He jumped down and waded to It, thinking for the moment that the Jap­ anese had come to release him. He pushed the door open and gated into the dim hold, where mattresses and planks from the berths .were floating about ’n rather dangerous confusion. He gained the ladder, mounted and stood upon the deck; there was no sign of a living soul. Evidently the Japanese bad gone off and left him to his fate. The door, be had no doubt, had been jammed open by the strain­ ing and plunging of the ship. There was land in the distance, a faint coast­ line, which he knew could not be that of Russia, for the Shikoku Maru bad been out only a few hours when she struck. Hardy remained on the wreck till nearly noon. He had about made up his mind, should the crew return, to let them get aboard, pick them off with his revolver and take to the sea with their boat, when he discovered a steamer approaching. He signaled her and she sent a. small boat that took him and bls baggage off. She was a Russian steamer, bound for Vladivostok. CHAPTER VII. Zakouska. The Russian steamer that took Har­ dy into Vladivostok was an iron tub of the tramp variety, and not a soul on board could speak a word of any tongue.ever heard before by the Amer­ ican. He soon became aware, how­ ever. that the red-faced burly captain and hl3 two officers meant to be kind to h’m. and that their Idea of friend­ liness consisted principally in getting him to eat and drink as much and as frequently as possible. After vainly attempting to converse with him and learning only that he was American, the captain led him to the dining room and Introduced him to one of the great Institutions of Russia, the zakouska. a lunch of hors-d'oeuvfes, washed down with much strong drink. At one end of the room, near the side­ board. a table was set. spread with dishes of sardines.- sardels, caviar, chunks of pickled fish, sandwiches, and shrimp In bottles. The captain Doured out two generous bumpers of a white liquid Into glasses, handed them several atnries in height, evi­ dently built of brick and stone. A cou­ ple of men-of-war. very trim, in their white paint, besides numerous mor* chant vessels flying the Russian flag, lay at anchor in the bay, while sev­ eral Chinese sampans and a junk or two, drifting about, bore witness that here the extremes of the east and the west meet and overlap. Two or three of the sampans, indeed, floated up to Hardy's ship as she cast anchor, and their long-cued owners made clamor­ ous application to carry any one ashore who might wish to go. Hardy had already picked out* the Celestial whose appearance best suited him, wondering whether he would take Japanese money, when he noticed a steam-launch rapidly approaching, and a cheerful voice hailed him. “Is that an American on board there?" . "Yes.” Hardy shouted back. thrill­ Ing ,, with delight at the sound . ... sudden . of his mother-tongue, “how did you know?” "By the cut of your clothes. Where is your baggage?" "In my cabin.” "All right," said the man tn the launch, "I'll have it brought out Get tn here and I'll take you ashore." A few words of gruff Russian to the captain, and Hardy’s trunks and bag­ gage were brought out, and five min­ utes later be was flying ashore in the* launch of the American Trading Com­ pany. As he was leaving, the captain dashed up and wrung his hand, asking anxiously: "Zakouska?” "He wants to know," explained Har­ dy, leaning over the rail, “if I want more zakouska. I’ve had zakouska enough to last me a lifetime. What shall I tell him?” "Tell him ’nyet'l" came the reply, and the American shook the hands of the captain and bis two kind-hearted officers vigorously, repeating many times: “Nyet! nyet! nyet! nyet!" CHAPTER VIII, Enter the Princess. "I want to go to the American con­ sul's.” said Hardy, “as soon as I land, and then I should like to get located in. a hotel, til! I can catch the first comfortable steamer up the river. It’s fortunate for me you came out to take me off, for my knowledge of Russian is, as yet, rather limited.” "You can start up the river day after to-morrow.” replied the Vladi­ vostok agent, "on the Alexsay, which goes as far as Blagovestchensk. You will be quite comfortable on her, and will be likely to get a room all to yourself, as I understand she is not crowded." "That will suit me perfectly,” said Hardy "I see no reason for lingering here, fascinating as the town looks, any longer than Is necessary." “By the way," volunteered the oth­ er, “you will have quite a distin­ guished traveling companion. If you go on the Alexsay, the Princess Ro­ manovna, who has been here visiting her relative. Gen. Romanoff. She has made a sensation in the garrison so­ ciety here.

FBESH AIB COIXJXX HOU8 other greens may be planted by those who are engaged in chick growing in a small way. but a cheaper and more feasible way is to sprout oats. Oats are sprouted by being soaked in warm water and allowed to remain in a warm place for several days. They are ready for feeding when the sprouts are two or three Inches long and are devoured greedily by chicks of all agee. This absurdly simple idea bas been extensively sold aa a get-richquick poultry scheme. Young chicks should be provided with grit of some sort. Special care is necessary to keep fresh water before them at all times. The water dish tn the brooder ought to be partitioned off in such a way that chicks can reach their heeds only to the water dish; otherwise they will get themselves wet Tbe customary chick watering fountain is made by inverting a bottle or can in a shallow basin so thr.t the water will rnn out as the chicks requlra.

Tbe greatest trouble with brooders In operation is the uncertain­ ty of the lamp. The brooder lamp should have sufficient oil capacity and a large wick. Brooder lamps are often exposed to the wind, and if cheaply ronstructed or poorly inclosed the re­ tail will be a chilled brood of chicks »r perhaps a fire.

It is said that next year promises to be the biggest in the history of the binder twine plant.

Er’Stauffer of Hastings, for many years a merchant there, and one of the best known men in the county, underwent an operation Friday after­ noon for strangulated hernia, th? operation proving a success, and at ^st accounts he was doing nicely, in fpite of the fact that his age, 75,’ was against the success of the operation. Mr. Stauffer, who is an uncle of The News editor, was a pioneer resident and business man of Nashville, and has many friends here who hope for his complete recovery.

He was returning home from Hastings, when his team became fright­ ened and unmanagable and run into a pole on which were strung charged electric light wires. The force ot tbe wagon striking the pole snapped one of the wires, which carried 2o00 volts, striking Scoby on the face and neck and he was electrocuted, death being instantaneous. He was found lying in the seat of the wagon, and there was a large burn on his neck and ear. OscarWarren was severely kicked by a horse Tuesday noon, while trying to fasten a pole up in the barn betweenTis horse and one belonging to his son Ivan, which he has been working for a few days.

Nothing special need be said of treating chicks in this connection more than is discussed elsewhere un­ der the topics of bousing, food and care. Cleanlines*. The advice commonly given In poul­ try papers concerning cleanliness in­ flicts upon the poultry keeper more labor than need be. It Is all right for the fancier, who sells bis birds for high prices and whose profits depend largely upon the impression- his plant makes upon tbe visitor, to sweep the floors of bls chicken bouse with as much care as the housewife does her parlor. But the farmer and tbe utili­ ty poultry keeper cannot afford to in­ crease their labor unnecessarily, for the labor bill at best is tbe heaviest item in poultry keeping. There Is a general hqtion prevalent that filth causes disease. This, strictly speaking, is not Correct, and lack of cleanliness does not breed disease, al­ though contagious diseases can be checked ty a disinfectant, which, of course. Involves reasonable cleanli­ ness. Poultry if glvop dry whole grain will have no opiwrtunity to get filth in their food, and if the house is dry, so that no fumes of ammonia are given off. there ft no need of re­ moving tbe droppings more than once a month. In winter time they can be allowed to accumulate for even longer periods. In mild climates where birds are on free range commercial poultrymen only cleau their poultry bouses about twice a year. Damp poultry bouses, even with tbe moat scrupulous care In cleanliness, will never give satis­ factory results. Contagious DiaeiM*. Poultry suffers from numerous in­ dividual diseases, such as bound crop, bumblefoot, apoplexy, etc. Buch dis­ orders must be dealt with by the poul­ tryman when tbe occasion arises and need give him no serious concern, as tbe loss involved is of small conse­ quence. Roup is the greatest scourge of the poultry yard, ranking as consumption does among men. Roup, like human consumption, is a germ disease and one of which the germs are commonly prevalent, but which are resisted by vigorous stock. It is only when flocks of fowls become particularly suscepti­ ble to roup germ* by neglect and ex­ posure that this disease breaks out in serious form. Tbe essential symptom of ’ roup is a clogging of the throat and nostrils with offensive mucus, which makes breathing difficult for tbe fowl. This collection of mucus in the throat fre­ quently causes a wheezing sound, which may be the poultryman's first intimation that roup is prevalent in bls flock. As the disease progresses yellow cheesy patches form In tbe bird’s mouth and throat, tbe eyes be­ come swollen, and in some cases the eyeball* are bulged from tbe sockets. These latter symptoms are sometimes known as canker, and two or more distinct disease* In roup outbreaks are frequently Identified by the scientist*. Practically speaking, these symptom* may be considered ns a single disease. ILL ... ------------ Be Independent gttishlng epidemic roup from simple cold* Is by,, the offensive odor of the fowl’s breath. This is so unmistaka­ ble that without prevfoui experience it serve* a* an Infallible symptom for the diagnosis of roup. Tbe writer recognize* no cure for roup. Individual fowls may be helped . some In their natural fight to overcoms the disease If tbe pus is removed from tbe throat and nostrils’ and the parts bathed In a solution of permanganate of potash or other mild disinfectant, such as will bo put up on request by the local druggist. Birds occasionally, f . ’ ' ir • * •** ' mo.,, roop. b0< «cb mm. .r. usually worthless. All birds with evt-, ° L . . •_* J dent symptoms of roup should be tak- , en from , flocks and destroyed and the bouse disinfected. It Is still more im­ portant to aee that all poultry on tbe place are got into suitable roosting quarters, where they will be protected from tbe rain and wind and still be given plenty of fresh air. Chicken pox or sore bead *ls a poul-, try disease especially prevalent in tbe south. It attacks growing chicks late in the summer. Tbe disease can be treated with fair success by i ” uoibtin^ tbe sores with carbolated vaseline. ■ —j- j,-.--.1,1.......... .............

There wiil be forenoon ano Afternoon sessions, tbe former beginning at 10 o’clock, and tbe afternoon sesfion wtl:30. The program for thin meeting is one that ought to appeal to the people of Barry county. It is a rare privilege to hear meh a man as Judge Loyal E. Kn.aupen of Grand Rapids. It should be especially so for Barry county, when they remember that he was horn in thia county, grew to manhood here, and in this county entered upon a professional career in which he has won national fame, be­ ing now but one step removed* from the supreme court of thp United States. And it is predicted that Judge Knap­ pen’s recognized great ability as a lawyer and federal judge will result in his" elevation from the federal circuit to the supreme court bench. He is classed as one of this country’s great jurists His keen observation of people and conditions, and his ability to clearly express himself will no doubt mean an address that will be of the greatest interest to all wbo shall have the privilege of bearing him. Mrs. Henrv Hoyt, of Kalamazoo, daughter of the landlord of the famous Yanicee Springs hostelry, which her father William (Yankee BUI) Lewis kept for many years, and which was noted everywhere in pioneer days for its hospitality and excellent service, will also appear on the program at tbe Barry County Pioneer meeting June 2. Her subject will be one of unusual interest to Barry county people: ‘‘Leonard Slater, Missionary to the Indians, with an Account of Chief Noonday and his Connection with the Work of the Slater Mission.” Mrs Hoyt knew Leonard Slater per­ sonally. He was an important factor in the early days of Barry County, and came from good old revolutionary stock. Bis fatner, disguised as an Indian, helped to pour the British tea into Boston Harbor. Mrs. Hoyt frequently met Chief Noonday, head ANDof- tbe Ottawa Indians who were cared for at the Slater Mission, where was made one of the earlier attempts to teach the aborigines how to carry on farming. Mrs. William Gibson, of Nashville, will give a paper on “Reminiscenses of the Indians.’’ It is to be regretted that we have so little information about the Indians who inhabited Have improvements for 1910 not seen on oth­ Barry county before the white people came, and who were familiarly known ers, and which make them easy to handle, work by its pioneers. It is well therefore that we shall have a paper on that in corn or beans, and the price is right. If you topic oy Mrs. Gibson, who will have something interesting to say on that will come in and see them the story is soon told. subject. A story of bunting and Ashing ex­ Smith gasoline engines, 20th Century manure periences in the early days of'Barry county will be given. It will be the spreaders, Black Hawk planters, hot air fur­ experiences of one who is the bestknown living authority on that sub­ naces, felt, gravel, tin and steel roofing. ject. In these days when the net re­ turns of a day’s hunt is a meager showing of rabbits, squirrels and small feathered game, we can scarcely realize what a hunter's paradise Barry county was in the days when deer, bears, wild turkeysand all sorts of smaller game were abundant, and when a short visit by tbe fisherman to any of the lakes in Barry county would yield what would today be re­ garded as a record breaking catch. Mrs. Daniel Wolf, of Maple Grove, will give a paner which will be in the nature of a history of the Quaker settlement in Maple Grove in the pioneer days. There are few descen­ dants now,Mrs. Wolf beingoneof them, of the early Quaker settlers of Maple Grove township, and it will be in­ teresting to hear one who knew intimally about them tell of incidents con­ nected with them. Judge Smith, the historian of the society, will give his report for the past year at the meeting June 2.

There are some fences sold a little cheaper, but if you will take the trouble to look into the matter you will find they are made of lighter wire. Ask them if they will sell their fence by the pound. We will eell the American that way if you so desire. The price would be three cents per pound. Yon can’t buy the lighter fence that way because they are not made to eell that way.

An accident which might easily have tifcn much more serious occurred on South Main street one day last week. Mrs. John McIntyre, accompanied by I her daughter and Mrs. Orson Me-1 Intyre were driving into the village from the south, when their horse be­ came frightened and started to tud. Tbe ladles became excited and got the reins crossed, with the result that they pulled tbe horse into H. £-. Downing’s yard; their buggy being overturned as they struck the terrace and throw­ ing the ladies out. Mps. Orson Mc­ Intyre was thrown against a maple tree and Mr*. John McIntyre, was thrown on top of her, with the result that Mrs. Orson was seriously bruis­ ed, although fortunately no bones were broken. The horse was unin­ jured and the vehicle was not damag­ ed. . Mrs. Ida Kocher was united in marriage at the home of her. sister, Mrs. Wm. Woulfe of Fremont, Ind., Wednesday, Mav 11. to S. A. Woulfe of that place. Immediately after the ceremony the happy couple left for Michigan arriving in Nashville on tbe 9:12 train. A number of her friends gut an inkling that they would arrive at that time and met them at the train, giving them a shower of rice, beans, old shoes and everything available, after which they were load­ ed on an express wagon and given a ride about the yards. Mr. and Mrs. Woulfe will remain in. the village thfs week, returning to Fremont Saturday where- they expect to make their future home. Mrs. Woulfe has many friends in the village and all re­ gret to have her leave, but our loss is Fremont’s gain and we extend con­ gratulations. Gottlieb Zuschnitt, father of HenryZuschnitt of this village, died at the home*of his son William in Carlton township, Tuesday morning, after a brief illness, at the age of 85 years. Mr. Zuschnitt has been a resident of Woodland village since 1865 until about three year* ago, and was for many years a shoe dealer there, but of late has made his home with his son in Carlton. His son Henry, who was called to Carlton Tuesday morn­ ing by his father’s death, was surpris­ ed upon arriving there to learn that his brother-in-law, J. R. Henny;'*who lived near by, had also passed away that morning, his death occurring very suddenly of heart disease, about an hour after that of Mr. Zuschnitt. The funeral of Gottlieb Zuschnitt will take place Thursday morning at ten o’clock, and the remains wifi be in­ terred in the Lake Odessa cemetery. H. C. Zuschnitt and family will attend tbe funeral.

J. A. Bready officiating. The bride was handsomely dressed in cream colored silk and carried a large bouquet of bride's rose*. Just a few relatives witnessed the ceremony. Miss Alma La Breck, tbe bridegroom’s niece, acted as bridesmaid, and Peter Drux as best man. Immediately after the wading the bridal party went to their new home at 329 North Park street, which bad been beautifully furnished and decorated with ruses and carna­ tions'. About fifty of their friends were waiting for them and a very elab­ orate supper was served.

Awaiting the former president at the Victoria station were one of the king's equerries, a repre­ sentative of the British foreign office. \ Ambassador Reid and tbe staff of the American embassy, with their wives. The welcome to the special ambassa­ dor was very cordial and a large crowd of people was at the station to witness his arrival.

MAKES EXPLANATION Issues Reply to Charge That Ballinger Letter Was Written by Latter's Aid—Lawler Made Draft, but Presi­ dent Changed IL * v Doctor Site Immovable a* Jurors Re­ turn Verdict—Wife le Overcome With Emotion—'.Counsel Wil! Move for New Trial at Once. Kansas City, Mo., May 17.—Written on a piece of legal cap paper in the. precise hand of George M. Feldt, the verdict which sends Dr. B. Clark Hyde to the penitentiary for the remainder of hla life was handed to Criminal Judge Latshaw. It. ended a trial of more than five weeks' duration and formally convict­ ed the defendant of killing CoL Thom­ as H. Swope, the multimillionaire, on October 3, at Independence. -Hyde Is Unmoved. Doctor Hyde sat Immovable, look­ ing fixedly at the jurors, as each man responded: “That is my verdict** Not a cloud crossed his face. He sat as he has sat during the trial. Perhaps the lines about the mouth grew a fraction deeper, but otherwise there was no sign. Mrs. Hyde, sitting at her accus­ tomed place behind her husband, con­ vulsively grasped his right arm when the verdict was read. For a moment she was dry-eyed, then her head fall on her husband's shoulder and a flood of tears came unrestrained. For a moment the jurors stood lined up, while Judge Latshaw addressed them. Then they hurried from the court­ room. Hyde Is Taken to Cell. Doctor Hyde and Mrs. Hyde sat in their places only a moment after the jury had departed. Then, followed by Doctor Hyde's two sisters, who have been with him the greater part of the trial, they went into a witness room. Ten minutes later, James P. Gilwee, chief deputy marshal, rapped on the door and Doctor Hyde, following him, was led ,tb his cell. Nothing could have been less spec­ tacular than the bringing in of the verdict. The jury called for Judge Latshaw, announcing that a verdict had been reached. John H. Lucas and William T. Johnson of Doctor Hyde’s counsel, were the only attorneys In the courtroom at that time. Virgil Conklin, prosecutor, and James A. Reed, came in with the judge. None of the Swope family was present Doctor Hyde and his wife came in and sat down at the press table. Doc­ tor Hyde's two sisters sat opposite. The roomful of spectators craned their necks, looking with eager attention. Jury Files In. At 10:25 o'clock the door of the cor­ ridor which leads to the jury room was opened and led by Frank Clay­ pool, the foreman, the jury filed tn. "Have you agreed upon a zerdlct, gentlemen?" asked Judge Latsbaw. "We have," said Frank Claypool, foreman. The jury was then polled and as each man's name was called be an­ swered! “That is my verdict” Prisoner's Wife Weeps. Mrs. Hyde was allowed ten minutes in the witness room with her hus­ bands Between sobs she said: “I cannot understand how the jury could bring in such a verdict" Doctor Hyde said nothing, except to comfort her and tell her everything would come out all right Added words of cheer came from John H. Lucas and Mr. Walsh. "The next step will be a motion in arrest of judgment and for a new trial." said Mr. Lucas. “That must be filed in four days. If it is overruled, an appeal will be taken." WITNESS IS OUSTED Four Companies of Missouri Militia Are Sent to llssco to Quell Labor Riot. Mrs. Mary Snead, charged jointly with the murder of Mrs/ Ocey W. Snead, marks the beginning of another chap­ ter tn the now famous "bath tub" mys­ tery, one of the most baffling cases in the criminal annals of the east. The curious manner in which the beautiful young woman met her death last November, the fact that the three defendants are. sisters and members of an old southern family, and that one is-the mother and the other two the aunts of the victim, have all com­ bined to arouse an unusual degree of interest To this will be added a mass of uncanny evidence that will be pre­ sented by the prosecution at the trial tn attempt to show that these three old women were responsible for the death of young Mrs. Snead, and that this cold-blooded crime was com­ mitted, in order that they might ob­ tain the $32,000 insurance on the vic­ tim’s life. Washington, May 17.—Frederick M. Kerby, the stenographer ta the office of the secretary of the interior, who issued a statement regarding tbe Law­ ler memorandum on the Glavis charges to the president, was dis­ charged from the government service by Secretary Ballinger. ' Secretary of the Interior Ballinger said that bis action in discharging Kerby and declaring him to be "un­ worthy" was the only course left open to him. He would make no further comment on the subject, saying: "The letter speaks for itself," referring to the letter of dismissal sent Kerby. The statement Issued by President Taft explhlned in detail a charge made by F. M. Kerby, a confidential stenog­ rapher In the office of Secretary of the Interior Ballinger, that the president's letter of last September, exonerating Secretary Ballinger,’ was written by Assistant Attorney-General Oscar Lawler of the Interior departmenL Dictated New Letter. The president declares that tn the ordinary course of business, after he had made a full investigation of the Glavis charges against Mr. Ballinger and had reached a conclusion he re­ quested Mr. Lawler to prepare for him a statement in line with those conclu­ sions. The statement thus prepared, the president declares, wss not satis­ factory In several particulars, notably in the respect that It contained un­ necessary references to Gifford Ptnchot and Louis Glavis, whereupon he, the president, dictated a new let­ ter, In which but one or two sentences of the Lawler draft were embodied.

Washington, May 14.—By a vote of 57 to 10 the senate adopted a modi­ fied form of the Dixon long and short haul amendment to the railroad bilL Tbe amendment represents the com­ bined efforts of Republican, Demo­ cratic and Insurgent leaders, and It is significant that Senator Aldrich de­ fended it on the floor and cast his vote in its favor. The consensus of opinion is that the amendment is con tradlctory in its terms and defeats its own purpose, or, if this is nut so, that it burdens tbe Interstate commerce commission with an Impossible task The "Insurgent" Republicans voted for the amendment, as did the follow ing Democrats: Bacon, Clark (Ark.). Clay. Frazier. Martin, Owen. Paynter. Percy. Purcell. Shively, Simmons. Smith (S. C.), and Taylor.

Coupled with this statement is an explanation by the president that it was at his direction that Attorney­ General Wickersham dated back the report on the Glavis charges about which there has been so much contro­ versy before the Balllnger-PInchot In­ vestigating committee.

FlGURES THAT ARE STARTLING Railroad Statistic* Just Published Are a Revelation to the "Man on the Street.’’ The most marvelous array of stat­ istics presented for some time past was that offered by the Bureau ot Railway N6ws and Statistics. These figures are so stupendous that one can scarcely comprehend their real mean­ ing as they stand in orderly rows, di­ vided Into groups of three by portly commas. Figures are mounting up so rapidly nowadays that the statlstlcans have to keep on hand an ample sup­ ply of ciphers. In ten years nearly seven billion people were carried by the railroads of the United States, and in a single year, 1908, one and one-half billion tons or freight were transported over the shining rails from one part of the country to another. The weight of individual locomo tlvea has Increased 115 per cent., and the number 75 per cent, there being now almost 57,000 puffing over the United States. The increase in the capacity of freight care has been ap­ proximately 120 per cent., making thefr present carrying capacity more than 71 000.000 tons. Perhaps the statistics giving the number of jraUrGfid employes are the most impressive; nearly a million and a half people, an increase of 67 per cent., are now on the payrolls of Unit­ ed States ralkoads, drawing a com­ pensation of a billion dollara a year an increase of 110 per cent, over ten years ago.—Joe Mitchell Chapple tn “Affairs at Washington” in the Na­ tional Magazine. �Rev.

Indeed, the road at this point turned sharply away from the river and disappeared around the foot of a hill. Hardy knew, however, that ft must wind back to the river and be therefore followed the wide dusty trail confidently, although it seemed to plunge Into the heart of the wilder­ ness. Once or twice he asked him­ self why he was walking so rapidly, and each time made answer: "Why, to keep up with my lotka, of course." He was toothorough a gentleman to ad­ mit to himself that he was pursuing the prideess; he would not have done such a thing on Beacon street; why should he do it on a government road In Si­ beria? At any rate, it would be an Indiscreet thing to do, as she would be sure to crush him for his presump­ tion. But he certainly had Just as good a right to-get out and walk as she. As he was soliloquising thus and had about come to the conclusion that he was In a fair way at lost of making an ass of himself, be thought he heard a shrill scream In the distance. Listen­ ing, with his heart In his mouth, he was sure, for the first cry was fol­ lowed by others—wild, despairing shrieks, as of a woman in the most excruciating fear. "Coming! coming!” shouted Hardy, and, feeling in bls pocket for the gen­ eral's American pistol, which, thank God! was there, he ran as hq never ran before. Rounding a little tuni in the road and a clump of trees, he came suddenly on a sight that thrilled him with rage and sickened him with fear, not for himself, but for the prin­ cess. There she was, struggling in the arms of a big Chinese, one of that half-savage tribe that inhabits the wild regions of Manchuria. The beast had lifted her in his arms and was running toward the woods with her, while another carried the maid. Two other Mongolians, with long war bows in their hands, completed the strange picture. Hardy shouted again, and the four Chinese wheeled about and regarded him with startled malignancy that turned on the Instant to amuse­ ment Those four great brutes beheld one rather small, dark man, of dapper ap­ pearance, despite his week's river­ travel—a slender, dark man In a blue serge suit and negligee shirt, who me­ chanically adjusted his gold pince-nez as he advanced now at a slower gait. The two Chinese, with war bows fitted long arrows to the strings and, with a sudden lift of* the left foot and a widening of the arms, they let drive. One arrow whizzed by Hardy's head and the other pierced bls clothing, making a nasty scratch on his left side. Then the pistol cracked twice and the two Chinese fell sprawling, with bullets through their bodies. The. other two promptly dropped the faint­ ing women and started to run. Hardy aimed deliberately at the one who had seized the princess and fired. It was H long shot, but the bullet took effect as a scream of pain testified. Neither the pnneess nor the maid evinced any signs of reviving, but lay there huddled on the ground as though dead. Hardy ran to the edge of the bluff and there, as good fortune would have it, was the gonc-ral's lotka, and the general himself ’ strolling along leisurely on the sand. The American shouted so loudly and flung his arms about so wildly that the Or­ derly, the two muzhiks and even the governor himself were soon scram­ bling up the steep bank toward him. The Romanovna had revived by the time they all reached her. and sat in dent of the brigands, as he felt that any attempt at friendship on his part would be taking advantage of the service he had been able to render her—a service which, he assured him­ self, he would have performed just as eagerly for the humblest- peasant woman on the boat The Romanovna, In fact, had been nearly prostrated since that dreadful happening, re­ maining tn her cabin until now, under the care of her maid' "Monsieur," she said to Hardy, who was promenading the little deck. He threw away his cigar, removed his hat and bowed very low. He noticed that she was still pale add that her eyes looked unnaturally large. "Parlezvouz Francals, monsieur?” she asked. sweetly, with a perfect Parisian ac­ cent. . "Un pen, madame," he replied, "but unfortunately, very badly.” "Ab, but you do speak it!’t she cried with animation, "you speak it well, or at least well enough to enable me to express to you my undying gratitude. I owe you my life, monsieur! Pray, sit down here beside me. I owe you my escape from a horrible, a hideous fate." Hardy sat beside her on the bench. "You ewe me nothing, madame," be said; "there was no great danger for me, really. The—the obligation Is all on my side. There is not a muz­ hik or Bourlat on the boat who would not have done the same thing. They are all envious of my great good for­ tune.” "I owe you, nevertheless, my life,”' she Insisted, "and you have my undy­ ing gratitude, as I said. I do not know how I shall ever be able to repay you!” Hardy frowned. "I did not do it with any thought of repayment of any kind, madame,” he said. "You will best recompense hi (Incorporated) ' C. A.

GROH Anthony Johnson had worked two years u hired man for Laban Walker. "Anthony h a good worker and has money in the bank.. Why does he not buy a farm of his own?" people asked. Anthony knew why. So. alto, did pretty Rachel Walker. It was for her smiles and presence that Anthony con­ tinued to toll for Laban Walker. Rachel knew that Anthony was in love with her a month after he came to work for her father. In her heart ■he rejoiced in his adoration. But, like many good women, she was some­ thing of a croquette, and so when, as they were driving home from church one day, Anthony asked her to marry him, she smiled roguishly and said: "Father wants. me to marry La­ fayette Fraser.” Anthony bit his lip and struck the horse such a cut with the whip that the animal jumped forward with a suddenness that threatened to upset the buggy. Fraser was a widower, but he owned more land than any one else in the county. Rachel had smiled on him when he called, especially when Anthony could see her. Fraser had tried in vain to find out whether Walk­ er’s farm was mortgaged, and had de­ cided in the end that Rachel was a good "bargain” even without money. Anthony drove along in silence after Rachel had given him her answer. Finally, when he could trust his voice, he said: "Do you think you love him— Rachel r “Well, why shouldn't I?" she asked, tossing her pretty head. Anthony was not skilled in the ma­ neuver!! of such situations, and as he was not a won;an be did not get by intuition the gift of acting well under such circumstances. So he said no more. Hla heart was too full for ut­ terance. They soon reached home, and he helped her out of the buggy. Then without a word he drove to the barn and put away the horte. He changed his clothes mechanically and did the chores, barely knowing what he was doing. That evening, after Rachel had re­ tired and when her father was dozing over the Farm Journal, Anthony ap­ proached him. "My year's up next week, and then I must leave,” he said. "What—what's that?" exclaimed Walker. "Didn't ye tell me just last week that ye would stay another year?” "Yes," admitted Anthony, "but cir­ cumstances have changed since then." Nothing Walker could say would change his purpose, and he went off to bed, where he passed a sleepless night. What mattered now the money he had saved during the years of toil? She, for whom be had worked and saved and planned great things for the future was going to be another’s. He ought never to have hoped for her, he told himself. He might have known he was a fool to aspire to the hand of such a girl. Rachel had been a little worried during the night about her treatment of Anthony. ’’He took me so awfully seriously,’’ she reflected. And then she took a little tintype out of a box and looked at It before she went down­ stairs to get breakfast Her father was there, and he told her of Anthony's determination. She was frightened. She hurried back to her room, so her father would not see the tears that welled up In her eyes. She had never dreamed that this could come from her bit of coquettlsbness. That evening when Anthony came In from doing the chores he heard his name called In a low voice. It was Rachel. "You—you didn’t think I meant what I said about Lafayette Fraser, did you, Anthony?" she said, her voice trembling. Anthony’s heart gave a great leap of joy.

If a woman receives a platter or any •ther breakable article as a gift from a friend and knows that to put It on display, where the donor expected it to be put, its ugliness will make a wilderness of her once pretty home, she drops a note to the Secret Society of Breakers, and this is what follows: A member of the society makes a call on the afflicted woman and while there esks casually to see the wom­ an’s china; she is so interested in china, she nays. She also says she is clumsy and doesn’t like to handle dishes. This clumsiness accounts for it when the platter falls to the floor whose husband got her an ugly lamp­ shade that she let it fall herself and broke it without sending for one of the S. B. of B.

Keeping VII.—Egg Production. By MILO M. HASTINGS, Formerly Poultryman at Kansas Experi­ ment Station, commercial Poultry Ex- merit of Agriculture. Author of "The Dollar Hen.” [Copyrixht. I81£ by American Press Anoctallon.] HE factor* that must be consldered in profltable egg pro­ duction are stock, climate, housing and feeding. We have previously discussed the worth of the various breeds as egg pro du cere. and. presuming that the read­ er has already made such selection, the next thing be should see to is that be is prepared to batch and rear a goodly number of pullets which will reach tbe egg laying maturity about November. Tbla will require Leghorns to be hatched from April 15 to June L and in tbe case of Plymouth Rocks and other fowls <jf this type batches should come from the middle of March to tbe 1st of May. If pullets begin laying In August and September they are very likely to molt In November, with tbe result that T they are liable to stop and not begin again until the warm weather.* On tbe other band, tbe much more fre­ quent mistake* of tbe farmer is to hatch tbe pullets out so late that the cold weather catches them Immature and the}* remain stunted and undevel­ oped and never begin laying until the season of high prices is past. The early batched pullets should be kept laying steadily from November until tbe following August. As to whether they are to be sold at this time or kept throughout the second year of laying there is considerable dispute among poultrymen. It has been very carefully figured out, how­ ever, that hens lay during the second year about two-thirds ns many eggs as during .their pullet year. It is worth at least 75 cents to $1 to bring a pullet to laying maturity. With a yield of 150 eggs during the pullet year we may expect 100 eggs from tbe ben during the second year. This loss of fifty eggs just kbout offsets tbe cost of raising an extra pullet to replace the one we would sell, so it is practi­ cally an even break as to whether pul­ lets should be sold at tbe end of their first laying year or kept throughout the second season. The majority of poultrymen keep bens for laying tbe two years. Climate. fcllmate and soil are essential fac­ tors in egg production, but, of course, cannot be controlled by the poultry­ man who is once located. The chief expense in egg production is the extra care and food necessary in the winter months. Likewise, in spite of all ef­ forts. the poorest results are obtained at this season of the year; hence the advantage of being in a climate and with soil where hens can run out­ doors at all seasons of the year. Light sandy soils even with the same tem­ perature are much better for poultry for the reason that snow does not last long upon them and grass and grain would keep growing, where tn heavier soil they would have long since dwin­ dled away. The heavy egg production of the Australia egg laying contest, which has excited considerable comment in this country, has to be largely ascrib­ ed to the mild winter climate in the region where the contest was held. Those who live in milder climates along the Atlantic shore from Phila­ delphia south and. for that matter, even on the New England coast, where the breezes from the sea melt the snow quickly, will And that the most profitable egg farming methods confist in providing the hens with com­ fortable sleeping quarters and with­ out going to any particular trouble to provide them with daytime occupa­ tion. Under such circumstances lay­ ing bens may be fed grain and beef scrap from hoppers, with perhaps one mash of bran, corn, milk, cooked veg­ etables. etc- once a day. This is the simplest form of egg farming and Is practiced at the famous Little Comp­ ton district in Rhode Island. The re­ sults In egg yield are probably not as which w kept full of leaves, straw or other litter. Into which the grain is frequently scattered so that the fowls are kept busy exercising. The distinction should also be made here between the Leghorns and heavy breeds, enforced exercise being much more essential in the latter case. Hens thnt are kept abut indoors must be Invest your own money and invest it in Farm Property where it will bring 20 to 30 per cent, and where you know that every year the valuation is going to keep on increasing, It was only a few years ago that No. 1 farms could be bought in this vicinity at from $30 to $40 per acre and to day the into the egg eating, feather pulling same lands are selling at $50 to $75 an acre.

It is a duty io the public, for the fly can carry dis­ ease germs from one place to another, and spread contagion in an alarmingly short time, and over vast areas. From the fact that nothing is beneath the notice of the fly, there is a wide scope to its deadly power, including all refuse, foods and living subjects. Scientists say that each fly can carry 100,000 disease bacteria, and their number is sufficient to carry the battle against life Into every household. F. A. WERTZ Now, to every woman, especially if she is a home keeker, there comes Phone 174 great opportunities to prevent and or call at residence. check these little conductors of dis­ ease. ,, All food must be kept carefully screened from flies.

I wish to thank the many friends All receptacles for garbage should lie kept welrtovered, cleaned frequently, who sent me post cards on my birth­ Mrs. George Harvey. and be sufficiently removed from any day. entrance. There should not be allowed any accumulation of decaying matter of any sort. Windows and doors should be screened against the invaders. Hun­ ger and thirst are two great charac­ teristics of the fly. It can be lured to its death by any of the preparations recommended by reliable persons. The fly breeds in tilth of any kind. Household Economics committee. Card from Representative Schantz To The News: I notice by the daily press that there has been collected by the Secre­ tary of State for Michigan and turned over to the state treasurer in auto­ mobile licenses the sum of 833,348, for the first four months of the year, and that applications for licenses are com­ ing in at the rate of 100 a day. If Barry Co.’s representative had done nothing more than to secure the pass­ age of this law he would have earned his salary, as this year’s auto fees under the new law will no doubt reach 8"5,000, and perhaps more, which will save the taxpayers of Michigan a like sum. • In view of the fact that accidents caused by careless and irresponsible autoists continue to happen, it would almost seem as if lhe fund should be set aside to be used in paying for losses occurring from broken vehicles, broken limbs and the like, after an effort had been made without success to collect damages from the re­ sponsible parties.

ProMcutlon Playa Trump Card—Pro( . test by Defanse That Wltnass . Could Not Teatlfy Under Law !a Followed by Sensation. New York, May 24.—The trump card In the prosecution of Charles R. Heike, secretary of the American Sugar Refining company, was played at the sugar trust underweighing con­ spiracy trial when Prosecutor Simpson called as the government's first wit­ ness Oliver Spitzer, superintendent of the Williamsburg docks, who some months ago was convicted of under­ weighing and sentenced to two years tn the Atlanta penitentiary. When Spitzer took the stand John B. Stanchfield, for the- defense, claimed that Under the federal statute Spitzer, as a convicted man, could not testify. Freed by Taft, Tbe sensation of the . trial was then created by tbe declaration In court that Spltser had been pardoned by President Taft on May 19 last Heike Is on trial in the United States circuit court with five former employee of the American Sugar Re­ fining company on the charge of con­ spiracy to defraud the government by underwelghlng cargoes of sugar im­ ports. Witnesses have testified to the dis­ covery of fraudulent devices on the sugar docks at Williamsburg, where­ by, It was alleged, employes of the so-called sugar trust manipulated the scaler so as to bring about under­ weights. How Fraud Was Practised. Spitzer went back to the years 1894 and 1895- when, he said, an Investiga­ tion he made developed the fact that the checkers were affecting the weights of raw sugar by placing small bags of lead on the beams of the scales, causing the recorded weights to drop below the actual, often as much as 40 pounds on each draft. In addition. Spitzer said It was also the practise to stuff paper underneath the floors of the scales, for the same purpose. He said that when Deputy Surveyor Vail took office these de­ vices were abandoned and the use of the steel corset spring instead was be­ gun and continued. Shows How Lead Was Used. Spitzer demonstrated in court the use of the bags of lead. He walked over to the sample scale, which Is one of the government’s exhibits in the case, and indicated on the beam the place. where the bag was suspended. Testifying regarding the use of the wire spring which superseded the bag of lead, Spitzer said that two styles of springs were used, a heavy one first and then one considerably lighter in weight Spitzer's testimony regarding the weight-lessening device of the news­ paper underneath the scale was an ab­ solutely new development. Robbed of Millions. Spitxer talked freely about the frauds by which the government was robbed of millions o.* dollars. He said the use of the steel springs was ■topped after tbe sugar trust had paid the rebate to tbe government as a result of tbe federal suit "Did you arrange a system of sig­ nal lights in the scalehouses?" sud- j denly asked tbe prosecutor. “Yes, sir," replied Spitzer, who then I related that the signals were used to i warn the weigher,, of any sudden dan­ ger. “How were the lights worked?" "By a switch In my office," replied Spitzer, who said that the switch was turned whenever a government official was seen to approach.

Tire opera will be sung in English all the week beginning Sunday. May 29. and there win be ari extra holiday matinee Decoration Day. Monday, May 30. “Aida” was written at the com­ mand of the Viceroy of Egypt and was intended as the work with which to open the great new opera house at Cairo, Egypt, and it aid this on the night of Dec. 24, 1874, before one of the most distinguished audiences ever assembled within the walls of a thea­ tre. As the event was national in character Verdi chose an Egyptian theme, and harked back to the* days when the capital was at Memphis, city of wonders. The moment chosen is when a revolt of the Ethiopians causes the Egyptian king to send out an army against the rebels, the command of the forces be­ ing given to the gallant Radames. This handsome general is beloved by Amfleris. daughter of the king, anil also by her slave girl, Aida, who is daughter of the Ethiopian king, Amonasro, made a slave of the prin­ cess Amneris. Radames loves Aida. Radames is victorious over the Ethiopians and returns in triumph, bringing Amnasro back in chains. The Egyptian king is greatly joyed by the triumph of Radames, be makes him the general heir to his throne and gives him the hand of Amernis in marriage. This is not at all to the fancy of either Radames or Aida, but they dissemble their grief. Clandes­ tinely they meet on the banks of the Nile and Aida persuades Radames to fly with her to her far away home, but Amneris discovers the lovers: they are thrown into prison and death is de­ creed for them. Radames is given his choice of life with Amneris or death with Aida. He chooses death and the lovers are entombed alive in the vaults of the temple of Ptah. Processions and pageants, splendid costumes, magnificent scenery and a great cast will make the performance of “Adia" memorable, in the casts will be Joseph Sheehan, Lois Ewell, Marie Victor, Domenico Russo, Lou­ ise Kelley, Ethel Du Fre Hou ton, Bertha Snaiek, Oltley Cranston, George Crampton, H.

"We are stuck for good," explained the American. ‘T hope you slept well?" “Excellently, thank you!

Had he known what gallant defenders were by my side he would not have felt such anxiety." Hardy took this last remark as sim­ ply complimentary to himself and the brave old general, and he acknowl­ edged it by a polite bow; how could he know that Boris Romanoff was a suitor for his fair causin'* hand, who was a cousin far removed, after all, and that the princess often tried the big fellow's temper in the most insid­ ious and seemingly Innocent ways. “This is an unexpected pleasure, Mr. Hardy," said Romanoff In English, extending his hand. "I hardly hoped to meet you again in Russia. I feared you would not be able to break away from the fascinations of the geisha girls, who so strongly appealed to you." Hardy Ignored the hand. “I believe that you played a scoun­ drelly trick on me In Japan." he said, looking Romanoff coolly in the eye and speaklqg with great calmness, "but I am content for the present, to pass It by.

"Will you," he said to the princess, "convey a slight suggestion, to the general for me? 1 make it in all humility." She looked at him inquiringly as he explained.

Much praise i* due the orchestra, Mr. Fos­ ter and two sons and Harry Ickes of West Maple Grove, for their many beautiful selections of music, also to Miss Mary Ickes fora fine instrument­ al solo. Miss Vergie Avers’ essay, “Salutatory”, was a pleasant welcome to ail. Miss Edna Mayo’s class history and prophecy was amusing in the way she gave the history of the class and prophesied what they would do in the future. In Hazel Olmstead's essay she expressed the hope that the class would go on in their studies, enter some high school and be as earnest in their studies as In the past. Song by Misses Grace Gutchess and Melissa DeBolt, "Swinging in the Grapevine Swing’’, was fine. The class song, “While the Dew is on the Lilies”, was well received and they were recalled for a second number. Rev. Carr gave a fine address. We give some of it which we hope will linger Idng in the minds of those who are now seeking a higher education, and- always remember Mr. Carr’s words. “An education is incomplete which does not place a. noble purpose behind mental training and make the hands willing to. work. The work should ultimately be the largest work of which the hands are capable, but at all limes it should be the work that most needs to be done. That educa­ tion is also defective which so inHames die’s vanity or so shrivels one’s heart as to separate him in sympathy from his fellows. Educalion has' been known to do this. Education has been known to even make a graduate ashamed of his parents. A certain paper recently re­ ported such a case. A mother who who had been denied the advantages of the schools, but who had by economy and sacrifice enabled her son to attend college, visited him after he had established himself in the practice of law. She had looked forward for years to bis success, and started upon her visit with great expectatidns. She soon learned, how­ ever, that her presence embarrassed her son—that he did not want his clients to know that she was his mother. Her heart was broken, and as she waited at the depot alone for the train that would bear her back to her humble home, she poured forth her sorrow in a letter. If I thought that any of you who receive your diplomas today would allow your superior advantages to lessen your affection for your parents or to decrease your devotion to them, 1 would wish you back in the primer class again. Better loving companionship than intellectual solitude, but there is no reason why the scholar should be less a son or a daughter. Head and heart should be developed together, and then each forward step will bring increasing joy, strengthen family ties and make early friendship more sacred.” Mrs. H.

MAURER. �KEtLETS SQUARE STAMD. HONOR ROOSEVELT Proposes ' GIVEN DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF LAWS AT CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY. IS CORDIALLY . WELCOMED Former President Wine Hearts of Students and Preceptors — Quiet Ceremonies Mark Conferring of Honor by World’s Oldest University. Cambridge. England, May IT.—Mr. Roosevelt came here to receive the honorary degree of doctor of laws from Cambridge university. The re­ ception given him by the faculty, stu* Cents and townspeople was notable. Is Given Warm Greeting. The former president was accompa­ nied from London by Mrs. Roosivelt and his daughter. Mrs. Nicholas Long­ worth. As they made their way through the narrow winding streets to the home of the great educational In­ stitutions the American were greeted by enthusiastic crowds. Mr. Roosevelt was formally wel­ comed by Dr. A. J. Mason, vice-chan­ cellor of Cambridge university, with whom be had a brief chat. Then an hour was devoted to a visit to Em­ manuel college, founded in 1548, and where John Harvard the butcher's son who was to become a clergyman in the Massachusetts colony and the first benefactor of Harvard college, was graduated in 163L Students Shout "Teddy." As Mr. Roosevelt accepted his diplo­ ma the students who crowded the gal­ leries shouted “Teddy! Teddy!" and the whole audience cheered. The old senate building was packed. The galleries were occupied by stu­ dents and during the ceremony they swung a teddy bear above the center of the hall, where it dangled to the entertainment of everybody. Mr. Roosevelt joined in the pleasantry and as he was leaving the building reached up and patted the toy beast with his hand. The procession was short but pic­ turesque. It started from Pembroke college, ‘ where Mr. Roosevelt bad luncheon, and moved slowly to the Senate house. First marched the liv­ eried mace bearers. Next came Mr. Roosevelt In bis robe and wearing a flat velvet cap upon his head. Beside, him was Vice-Chancellor Mason. Fol­ lowing the two were several profes­ sors, while two more mace bearers brought up the rear. Audience Is Friendly. The audience was decidedly friend­ ly. When the vice-chancellor referred to the university's guest as "a friend of peace and a friend ot the human race whose tame is attested by all Eu­ rope," there was a roar ot approval from his listeners. CURTISS FLIES 137 MILES Famous Aviator Speeds From Albany to New York at Average of 54 Miles an Hour. New York. May 30.—Glenn H. Cur­ tiss flew from Albany to New York city in am aeroplane, winning the >10.000 prlxe offered by the New York World. He covered the distance of 137 miles tn two hours and thirty-two minutes, and came to earth as calmly and as lightly a- a pigeon. Hlb av­ erage speed tor the distance—54.06 miles an hour—surpasses any record ever made by an aeroplane in long distance flight, and In Its entirety bis feat perhaps eclipses anything man has attempted in a heavier than air machine. The start was made from Albany at 7:03 o'clock under weather condi­ tions as near perfect as the most fas­ tidious aviator could demand. One hour and twenty-three minutes later he bad made his stopping place near Poughkeepsie, where there was an hour's intermission. Resuming his flight at 9:26, he sped southward and landed within the boundary of Man­ hattan Island at 10:35. Paulban's flight from London to Manchester—186 miles—exceeded the Curtiss feat of today In distance, but act in speed and danger. TbeFrenchman’s average was 44.3 miles an hour, ind below him lay English meadow­ land. Curtiss followed the winding course of the Hudson, with jutting headland, wooded slopes and treacher­ ous palisades. He swung high over the great bridge at Poughkeepsie, dipped at times within fifty feet of the river’s broad surface and jockeyed like a falcon at the turns.

By way of preface to this request he delivered his long-awaited speech, and tn vehement language declared before his colleagues that the bribery scandal Is the outcome of a "political conspiracy." Foremost in the answer of the sen­ ator to the charge stood his assertion that It had been formulated by the Chicago Tribune with the purpose ol destroying a new banking association in that city which Mr. Lorimer has organized. Concluding, he offered a resolution calling for a senatorial Investigation of the charges against him. Attacks Chicago Tribune. In opening, Mr. Lorimer said: that Upper Peninsular Mines Shall Pay Honest Taxes. Lansing, May 24.— In response to a letter from Die Legislative Com­ mittee of the State Grange asking for bis views upon the question of taxation of mining properties, Lieutenant Gov­ ernor Kelley calls attention to the enormous output of the mines of the Upper Peninsula and the compara­ tively small revenue which the state has derived thebe from. HeuHso ad­ vises that Michigan follows the exam­ ple set by the state of Minnesota in making an expert appraisal of our mines and a review of local assess­ ments of mining properties by the State Tax Commission, Mr. Kelley pointe out that this course in Minne­ sota resulted in bringing into the treasury of that slate almost three times the revenue formerly collected from mining properties. The full text of Mr. Kelley’s reply is as follows: "At the annual meeting of the State Grange held in Traverse City a few months ago resolutions were adopted in favor of the tonnage tax upon the output of the iron ore and copper mines of the Upper Peninsula. The Discussion which took place at that time, as reported by the press of the state, indicates that in the. judgement of those present at least, the mining companies of the Upper Peninsula are not bearing their full share of the bur­ dens of taxation. Many subordinate granges throughout the state have taken up this question and have passed similar resolutions.

From present prospects, the ban­ quet of the Barry County Republican club, to be given at the Auditorium in Nashville on Tuesday evening next, will be one of the jolltest affairs of the kind promulagated in the state this year. The list of speakers is now assured, and will consist of Unit­ ed States Senator Hurrows of Kalama­ zoo. Congressman* Charles E. Town­ send of Jackson, rival candidates for the coming terra in the United States senate, and Hon. Grant Fellows of Hudson, one of the finest orators in the state. In addition to this, Sena­ tor Huntley Russell of Grand Rapids will sing ‘‘The Sword of Bunker Hill.” W. A. Stowe, the fearless and plain-speaking editor of the Mich­ igan Tradesman, will fill the position of toastmaster, and no man in Mich­ igan is better qualified. The banquet will be served by a committee of the ladies of the village, and the arrangements will be such that it will be served expeditiously, so that the program can be started In good season, allowing the guests to return to their homes at a seasonable hour. The banquet will be ready promptly at six o'clock, the guests from the west signifying their inten­ tion of coming on the early train so that they may be able to hear the bulk of the program and get home on the train leaving at 9:12. An effort is also to be made to have this train held for a short time at the station here to give the guests from Hastings and the other towns west additional time for the enjoyment of the program. The musical part of the program, aside from the part contributed by Senator Russell, is to be furnished by Troxel’s orchestra and a male quartette from Hastings, and -it is promised that the music will be an attractive feature of the program. The tickets are going very rapidly, with prospects that late comers may have trouble in securing them. The seating capacity of the room is limit­ ed, so that not to exceed 260 tickets can be sold, so it behooves those who desire to attend to secure their tickets early. Such an array of prominent and talented speakersis rarely gather­ ed for an occasion like this, and Nashville is surely to be congratulat­ ed on securing them. Now let the people of Nashville and vicinity turn out and hear them. The banquet committee have their arrangements perfected and will serve a banquet which will make Nashville famous. All we can say about it is that it will be “different,'’ but there will be good stuff to eat and plenty of it. See some of the ticket sellers and get your ticket early. You will sure­ ly regret it if you miss tills affair. EIGHTH GRADE WINNERS. Nashville Schools Make Splendid Showing, Winning Firstand Second Honors. . Below will be found the names of those who were successful in passing the recent 8th grade examination. Nashville school made a splendid showing, nineteen of twenty-one who made the trial passing, ana in mathe­ matics our schools head the county, six of the pupils receiving a mark of 100 per cent. Gwendoline Smith, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. J. Smith of this village, had the highest average standing of any pupil ih the county, her percent­ age being 93.66. Aura Munroe, daugh­ ter of Mr. and Mrs. O. G. Munroe, was tied for second highest honors with Lola Andrus g; Cressy, their standing being 92 per cent. Last year Nashville was also at the top, one of our eighth graders being tied for the highest honors and an­ other bringing awaj the second high­ est average. i These examinations show the Nash­ ville schools to be accomplishing splendid results, a fact of which we are all proud. The diplomas granted the pupils will entitle them to enter any school in the county and the Michigan Agri­ cultural college, and under a new law, those from the rurals wishing to enter one of the high schools will have their tuition paid oy the school district in which they live.

Hardy, not understanding the gen­ eral's orders, reasoned that be would be pardoned for acting under bls own. If he were going wrong, he reflected, tt would be easy to stop him. He therefore held his rifle ready for acHon, as a man who Is expecting r covey of quail to rise, and stoodI watching the water, alert, tense, keeni as a cat about to spring. His chance, came soon, when one of those lights। flashed nearly in the direction of his। gate and not far away. He threw■ the gun to his shoulder and fired. He, could not see the sights, but be couldI make out the object plainly, and he. knew he should not go far wrong. He। missed, for the Chinese, standing: about waist-deep in the water, fittedI the arrow to the string and dischargedI K. The shot rang out loud and clear. It seemed to Hardy that be had neverbeard a rifled make such a' loud report before. The general exclaimed: k "Monsieur Hardy, ah!" and made no' further * comment, so the American continued his shooting—once, twice, three timet. Meanwhile the attacking party seemed to be. approaching a lit­ tle nearer, and they succeeded In lodg­ ing several of their burning missiles tn the woodwork of the boat; one ar­ row in the rail, two In . the side of the wheelhouse, and one tn the bull. These were broken off almost as soon as they Stuck and did nc damage, for, strange to say, the Chinese them­ selves had ceased firing their rifles. And now Hardy had the Inex­ pressible Joy of killing one of the attacking party, who fell backward into the water with his blazing arrow In his hand. “I’m getting the knack of It-" he muttered; "I shall be able to do It more frequently now. Perhaps I, alone, can stop them.” A moment later he heard sudden shouting, the sound of running feet, snarls of rage and the splash of heavy bodies falling into the water. A party of Chinese, that had crept down from above In rowboats, was attempting to board, and the Bouriats and crew were repelling them savrgely with bay­ onets and swords. CHAPTER XVI. Battle by Moonlight The burning arrows had been a di­ version, as the books on tactics say, to draw the attention of the little band of defenders and occupy It completely on the down-stream side, while an­ other attacking party crept up under cover of darkness and boarded from above. But for the fact that the wily old general, fearing the trick, had kept a guard stationed at that side, the ruse znight have succeeded per­ fectly. TYie boat, as we have seen, was swung diagonally across a sort of channel, her nose and stern being imbedded In sand-banks. The Chinese, coming down stream In three row„ .A boats, struck her at either end and Dear the middle, their evident inten­ tion being to spread the Russians out as much as possible. At this moment a frayed end worn old moon floated up out of the Si­ berian forest Hardy saw. by its light a wide expanse of water, dimly shin­ tag between ghostly forests; he saw several Mongolian heads, covered with round black caps, looking over the side of the boat; he saw Julius Smulders whirl a heavy oak pole In the air and bring it down on one of these heads with terrific force; be •aw one of the Bouriats cleave an­ other head so completely that onehalf stood erect for a second, while the other fell over the victim’s shoul­ der, as the Bouriat wrenched at his •word, which was Imbedded in the Tall; he saw a gigantic Manchurian, with a long two-handed sword, leap Sboard, to be thrust through by a bay­ onet lunge Just as his feet struck the deck. ▲11 this the American took in with one glance of the eye Just as the moon rose above the woods There were four of the crew, be­ sides the captain, all armed with rifles to which bayonets had been affixed by the general’s order. Add to these Smolder*, the general himself, Hardy and three Bouriats, and the defending party consisted of M members. Bravo Stenka Pugacheff of -the crew had gone down the river for help, and the attack had been delivered so auddenly that there was do time to call Romanoff, who was sleeping below. In­ deed; it is doubtful if, at that moment of extreme excitement, anybody thought of him. The Chinese were receiving a mur­ derous and unlooked-for reception, but they were not to be easily beaten off. Several of them gained the deck and began to swing their clumyy, two­ handed swords, and the clash of steel on steel rang out amid savage grunts, snarls and cries of rage. The Cossack crew and the Bouriats fought like dev­ ils, leaping and darting about with the agility of wildcats and handling their more modern weapons with murder­ ous dexterity- and skill. A man never knows what sort of man be Is still a supreme trial comes to him. The American found himself cool. His faculties were all at a state of extremes! tension, with the result that he could see and hear bet­ ter. think faster and decide more quickly than in ordinary momenta. He took his revolver from his pocket and ran lightly toward a Manchurian who was Just throwing one leg over the rail. He fired at the head of the man. who fell back Into the water with a loud splash, dropping his sword on the deck. Another leaped over the rail almost at his side, and, swinging bls great steel blade high In the air. chopped at Hardy’s head. The latter threw up his rifle and received the blow on the barrel. The impact brought him to his knees, but. as he sank, he shot his assailant beneath the chin, killing him Instantly. At this moment a blazing arrow passed over him and stuck In one of the cotton-stuffed pillows that had been used as a barricade. Hardy snatched the pillow, threw It overboard and ran to the down-stream side of the boat The attack of the boarders had not lasted in all over four or five minutes, and yet In that time several of the wading party had approached considerably nearer. The moon gave sufficient light for him to see the sights of his rifle now and the dark form of the Chinese made conspicuous marks In the gleaming water. This was not over two or three Inches deep on the sand in which the prow of the boat was Imbedded, and two of the Chinese were running close in. Hardy killed them both with bls rifle and then began to shot deliberately at . awfiy, with those who were farther Buch effect that he put the entire party to flight ere the ten remaining _____ _____ ,_ shots in bls weapon were___ exhausted. He turned to re-enter the melee Just In time to see Boris Romanoff burst raging on deck, wrench a two-handed sword from the fingers of a dead Chlnnese and ply It with as much ease and ■kill as though It rere lightest of rapiers. The attackers were gaining ground. ~ Enough of them had come over the side to defend a portion of the rail, over which others were rapid­ ly scrambling, while several of their number were keeping the defending party so busy that they could not use their guns to shoot them down; which, indeed, they would not have been likely to do, in any case, as Cossacks and Bouriats are primitive fighters who do Lot think of shooting when brought to close quarters.

They could be plainly seen, Smulders was wounded In the bead as the distance was in reality not great and their dark forms stood out distinctly against the strip of white ■and that stretched between the woods and the river. They were ma­ king preparations of some kind. The general brought his field-glass and studied them carefully. There was no doubt that they were digging a hole, but for what purpose, It was im­ possible to tell. The Chinese did not leave their In­ tentions long in doubt for they brought a huge cross out from ths shadows of the forest, and a strug­ gling prisoner, whom they cast down on the earth and proceeded to nail to the cross. The general turned to Hardy with white, drawn face. "Stenka!” he groaned. Yes. there was no doubt of It The unfortunate Pugacheff had been cap tured and’ was now being crucified in plain sight of his comrades. The ef­ fect upon the latter, as soon as they comprehended, was Indescribable. They seised their rifles, they shook impotent fists at the shore and screamed Imprecations at those flends, engaged there In their horrid work. One of the crew, mounting a cod of Was Bayoneted in the Back Just a* rope, addressed a few Impassioned He Jumped. remarks to his brethren, crying: "Come on. brothers, let us save poor by a gash that caused the blood to flow over bls cheek.

Her cabin door was open and he saw her within, comforting her maid (TO BE CONTINUED.) and ^mulders' Julia, both of whom were in hysterics. The two girls, clasped In each other's arms, were lying on a berth, with a blanket ' drawn over their heads, sobbing and praying. "We have driven them off. madame,” announced Hardy. "I think there Is no further cause of apprehension at present" The princess, leaning over the girls, pulled the blanket from their heads, and made them under­ stand that the enemy had fled.

Because, first—a saving of one-half the cost in feeding; second—Increasing the production per oow In milk and cream; third—increasing the butter fat and by so doing decreasing the cost of butter from 22c by using dry feed to 13o by using the silage ration, or a saving of 9c per pound of butter.

Below we print extracts from a let­ ter received from our old friend Al Hafner, who is one of the proprietors of the Oneida Steam Laundry at Rhinelander, Wis., and is doing a flourishing business. The News: For some time back my conscience has been troubling mo until it be­ came intolerable. In my desperation I went through some unanswered let­ ters among which was an unopened communication post-marked Nasnville which advised me how our dear old Uncle Sam proposed to oblige you to cut off my paper and so much profit per on xriy subscription unless I pay up. Now, in order to beat the old chap I have bought from one of his servants, the enclosed, which please collect from another of his servants and complel him to continue bringing the News to me. Get along without the News after reading it for thirty odd years? Not me. So piease drop one in the slot each week as usual, and when U. S. think it is time to in­ terfere again just drop me another jolt.” A. Hafner. “Nothing adds more to the attract­ iveness of a town, and makes a better impression upon visiting strangers, than newly painted residences, good sidewalks, clean streets and alleys, and withal, a good number of shade trees and ornamental shrubbery and flowers in your yards. Itis indicative of refinement, culture, good taste and thrift.” NOTICE TO TAX PAYERS.

On June 14, 1777, the American Con­ gress adopted the stars and stripes as our national emblem. In 1891 the state of Michigan by legislation established this date as an annual Flag Day, wMen all people throughout the length and breadth of the slate should unite in doing homage to our nation’s flag. In consideration of this fact we would earnestly request and recommend that on this day all patriotic citizens dis­ play the flag on theirhomes and pieces of business, and that all public build­ ings be similarly decorated. In this way we can show our appreciation of all for which the flag stands, and give the youth of our land a great object lesson in patriotism and veneration for the stars and stripes.

Traut, ice and fish dealer of this place, was the treasurer of the fish merchants’ “jackpot" of >2,500 con­ tributed for the defeat <?f the fish bill In the last general assembly. He col­ lected money himself, received >1.250 from John Dixon of Peoria and other sums from other collectors. This information was obtained by State's Attorney Burke of Springfield after a flying trip here. He talked with Traut for more than an hour and seemed well pleased with the re­ sults of bls visit Admits Handling the Fund. Mr. Traut not only admitted having handled the fund, but also acknowl­ edged that be spent the night before the adjournment of the legislature with A. M.

Confirms Dijon's Story. The gaining of the acknowledgment from Traut that he received the money collected by Dixon of Peoria confirms the latter's testimony.

Springfield, Ill., June 6.—John Dixon of Peoria and Henry Lemm of Pekin, two of the largest fish dealers of the state, told the Sangamon county grand jury about the demands for graft by certain members of the general assembly to kill the fish bill. These men asserted that the amount demanded and given was >2,500, but neither of them gave it to the legisla­ tors direct. Two others acted as mid­ dlemen and Mr. Burke will attempt to search these out Part for Expenses. The statement of Dixon proved to be far more Important than was the testimony of Lemm. Dixon said that the total amount collected was abpr<>xlmat«’ly >3,100, but that ail over >2,500, which was to go to certain members of the general assembly, was used for current expenses. Mr. Dixon and several other fish men were tn Springfield at frequent intervals while the legislature was In session. Their expenses had to be paid. Dixon said that of tbe total collec­ tions he received >1.250, and this and amounts collected by others were put together. Money Was for Lawmaker. The total of >2,500 was placed in a secret place, according to the agree­ ment among'the fishermen, to be ta­ ken by a man whose Identity has not been disclosed to a certain lawmaker. It appears that this agreement was not strictly carried out. Tbe man who found the money |n Its hiding place gave it to another man, who in turn handed it to a legislator. Mr. Burke has the names of both these men who are alleged to have handled the cash after It was put in hiding. Senator Hoistlaw Resigns. Senator D. W.

To-day after the genuine merit of Allen's Foot-Ease has been told year after year by one gratified person to another, there are millions who would as soon go with­ out a dentifrice as without Alien’s Foot Ease. It is a cleanly, wholesome healing antiseptic powder to be shaken into the shoes’, which has given rest and comfort to tired and aching feet in all parts of the world. It cures while you walk. Over 30,000 testi­ monials of .cures of smarting, swollen, perspiring feet. It prevent^ friction and wear of the stockings and will save in your stocking bill ten times its cost each year. Imitations pay the dealer a large profit, otherwise you would never be offered a substi­ tute when you ask for Allen's Foot­ Ease, the original antiseptic powder for the feet. Imitations are not ad­ vertised because they are not per­ manent. For every genuine article there are many imitations. The imita­ tor has no reputation to sustain—the advertiser has. It stands to reason that the advertised article is the best, otherwise the public would not buy it and the advertising could not be con­ tinued.

There is also a popular cry of “Down with contract penitentiary labor!" Now. what is there to hinder tbe employ­ ment of prison convicts on the public highways all over the country? By this means in a few years we might have perfect roads everywhere, and such employment of convict labor would interfere with no freeman's trade. Working the roads is the bane of the farmer's life. The story has gained some circula­ tion that Frank Price is making varied rates to different people on bis horse Camail, and Mr. Price is anxious to have the report corrected. He claims that he has never made but one rate, and that is the same to all, and he of­ fers to give 6200 to any person who will prove that he has aone anything but straight business. The report has probably been innocently circulated, but people should be very careful about spreading a report that will injure a man’s business unless they are absolutely sure what they are talking about. • Your attention is called to the change in the advertisements in this Issue and also to the new ones. The merchants of our city appreciate your trade and Cake this means of telling you of any bargains they may have to offer and also to announce tbe ar­ rival of new goods which are placed at your disposal and inspection. By closely watching the columns of this paper you will learn the names of our business men who invite you to deal with them and you can rest assured that they will treat you right. A mer­ chant who does not care enough for your trade to ask you to visit his store and who does not inform you of the many bargains he may have to offer is hardly worth your patronage. The progressive merchant will always jet his customers know of the arrival of new goods at once, and the way for our merchants to do this is through the columns of this paper which goes into every home in the community. BASE BALL. Nashville Shots Out Famous Addi­ son Giants In Exciting Game. Nashville is certainly starting the 1910 season auspicipusly, having won the first three games, the third one be­ ing plucked Tuesday afternoon from tbe Addison Giants. Incidentally the Glania received Ihslr Oral dni.lng ot >'------- *- for •«-------whitewash the --------season, *--* being un­ able to gather even one lone tally from the perplexing Stockdale, a phenomenal running catch by Max Purchis in the eighth session extin­ guishing their' last and best hope. Two men were on bases, waiting to score, two were out, when Burrows, who had previously taken tbe only two-sacker of the game, started an­ other one for the timber. It -was a corking liner and looked good for several extra bases, being about half way between center and right.

Stockdale, who -pitched for Nash­ ville Tuesday, is a Wayland boy, who attended high school under Superin­ tendent Appleton when he was there, and was a former cl assmate of Newt. Trautman. He is under contract to Kalamazoo, of the Southern Michigan league, and looks as though he should make good. ’ What do you know about that boy Giddings? Three clean singles out of four times up, and mighty near one for the other, only sharp work by Burrows getting him at first. All of the boys had their eye on the pill, eleven hits out of thirty-two times at bat being a team batting average of about .300. And only four strike­ outs, off a good southpaw, is sure en­ couraging. At that rate, it will both­ er most'of the pitchers to hpld the boys from getting their share of the counts. ' It was one of the prettiest games of ball ever played at Riverside park.: Plentv of hard, clean hitting, sensa­ tional fielding, and but one error, ■ that being by Dakon, of the Giants, | on a hara chance in the first inning. Irland made a mistake in judgment in the sixth in throwing to first to stop ■ Marthey, when there was no chance of retiring the runner, but it was not ex­ pensive. It was a fast, clean game, with no bickering and the umpiring was in the main first-class and highly satis­ factory. . Lake Odessa comes next Tuesday. Games so far arranged for the sea­ son are as follows: Lake Odessa here June 14: Nashville at Lake Odessa June 17; Middleville at Nashville June 24: Watslawik TailorB at Nash­ ville July 4; Nashville at Middleville July 8. ' Games with Eaton Rapids and’ Bellevue are being arranged. The Lentz Table Co., took the North Castleton team into camp at River­ side park Saturday in a rather loosely played but exciting game, the score resulting Lentz's-8; North Castleton 7. The high school game with Char­ lotte, scheduled here for Thursday afternoon of last week, had to be can­ celled on account of rain. Claude W. Smith of this village was married at Detroit Tuesday after­ noon at 2:30, to Miss Clara Wolfe, at the home of the bride’s sister, Mrs. Clayton Raymond, the ceremony being performed by the Rev. Mr. Kellogg. Mrs. Grace Marple and Floyd Smith of this place attended the affair. Mr. and Mrs. Smith are visiting friends in Lenawee county for a few days, after which they will return to Nashville and go to housekeeping in the Webb residence on Queen street. The happy couple have p host of friends In Nash­ ville who will unite In congratulations and good wishes.

It might be incidentally remarked that this same little Purchis waa also responsible for the two first runs that Nashville gathered, in the second inning, when three successive singles, by Dellar, Giddings and Irlund, had loaded the sacks, with two down. Much depended just then up­ on what Max should do. It was what is mystically known as the “psycoloScal moment’’, whatever that is, and ax, who is more or less of apsycologist, took advantage of it. He let a ]>each split the pan and the umps said “strike wan'*. The next one was about a foot wide of the pan, but Max reached out and got it right on tbe ertd of the wagon tongue, and “Big Mary" and “Gid” slipped over the fourth estate with enough counts to put the game away. It was iced in the next Inning, when Schofield and Stockdale dusted the home station with their spikes. Schofield, first up, singled. Habersaat fouled to Robenalt. Stockdale singled, and be and Schofield both moved up a base on the throw in. Giddings, who was hit­ ting like a fiend, scored Schofield with a single, and Stockdale gleaned the last run of the game a moment later when Mason drove a clean hit between Dakon and Burrows. The Giants were well named, a husky bunch, who look as though they ought to give a good account of themselves on any field, but they were simply outplayed all through the game. They were unable to bunch hits off Stockdale, who Lad them guessing all the <ay. In but one in­ ning, the third, were they able to gather more than one hit, and then the one more that they needed in or­ der to show was denied them by Stockdale, who was there strong in the pinches, and was some stingy all through the game.

We are reminded of this by seeing agents canvassing our country with packages of dry goods. These pack­ ages are sold for various prices. Peo­ ple forget how extremely low all classes of goods are at the present time and fall easy victims to the traveling humbugs. They could buy a much better class of goods of our honest home merchants for less mbney. These town sharks travel through the country and make a for­ tune out of shoddy goods. A word to the wise should be sufficient. The goods they sell are dear at any price. Cards of thanks for postcard show­ ers are rather unnecessary, and as they are not' good items of news we will ask our correspondents to kindly omit them in the future. The ’News wants to print all the news, and we are very glad to receive all items of gen­ era! neighborhood interest, but such a card of thanks is really advertising matter and as such should be paid for at the regular rates, if published. It is a certainty that if a person receives a post card shower they are grateful for it, and they are becoming of so frequent occurrence that we believe cards of thanks in reference to them fail to be items of interest to the reader. One of our subscribers took us to task this week for failing, as he re­ marked, to publish all that happened. It was fortunate for this particular individual that discretion occasional­ ly demands the omission of unpleas­ ant items. Should we publish all that is told to us we would be with the angels in about twenty minutes after our papers were mailed. We try to print all items that are news, or that will encourage, help or cheer any of our citizens along life’s rugged road. We all doubtless would enjoy reading “all the news" when it is about the other fellow, but our policy is to turn over to the gossips the spreading of scandals that only leave sorrows in their trail. There are but few editors in/our state who have not made a vigorous and continuous fight against the city mail order house. This has been done in the interest of the home merchant, and without money and without priefe. If the editors of the land had received regular advertising rates for all they have said against these enemies of the country merchant they could now be wearing diamonds. Now tbe depart­ ment store man appreciates advertis­ ing space and is willing to take all the average country editor has for sale, and at a good price. What otherclass of business or professional men would refuse business to help their friends, especially as many of said friends never seem in the least disposed to return the compliment or even appre­ ciate it.

Your Business Policy The success of any business depends on the business policy of the men who have its management and control.. A business, to succeed and have the confidence of the public, must spend less than it earns. Any other policy spells certain failure sooner nr later. The same rule applies to the individual. If you have the determination to make a success of life in business, a trade, a profession, or farming, you must first learn to live within your income.

He wanted a hand in the doings, him­ self, and did not believe that the speaker or any other one man should have authority to say as to what leg­ islation should or should not come up for consideration. The audience evi­ dently thought his point well taken, for the applause at the close of his remarks amounted to an ovation. The quartette sung “The Sound in the Trees,” received another encore and responded by leadingthe audience in singing the chorus of “Rings on my Fingers, Bells on my Toes.” The toastmaster then introduced Senator Burrows, paying him high tribute on the length of time he had served Michigan faithfully and well in both houses of congress, and say­ ing that’ Mr. Burrows undoubtedly knew more about “The Tariff,” which subject was assigned to him, than any other one man in the United States. That Burrows was considered the guest of honor of the evening was evident by the hearty and long-con­ tinued apjplause with which he was re­ ceived. He prefaced his remarks by modestly saying to the toastmaster: “You over-honor me, and you over­ estimate my ability. No man knows the tariff. It is too vast a question to be mastered by any one man. It is like a'huge spiders web, in which you can not touch a single thread without disturbing the entire structure. Any man who thinks he can consider one part of it without considering it all snows how little he knows about it. It is all of one fabric, and must have the most careful consideration as a whole, and not by fragments. Then ho said that he should not con­ sider the tariff in his remarks, al­ though that was the subject assigned to him, but should talk instead for a brief time aboutthe Republican party. Continued on eighth page. The second banquet of the Barry County Republican Cldb is now a matter of history, but it is the history of a splendid success. Handicapped only by'limited room, the banquet was pulled off Tuesday night and Jlulled off in style. Not with all the rills and furbellows which make so many banquets tedious affairs, but shorn of all these, the affair stands as one of the most successful of the year in the state. Doors thrown open at 6:45, the sapper was ended in fess than an hour, and if anybody went away hungry it was his own fault, for the viands were there in plenty and within reach; Al 10:30 the program was concluded and everybody went away happy. The menu consisted of . roast beef with brown gravy,1 mashed potatoes, raised biscuits, baked pork and beans, pickles, radishes, fruit salad, brick ice cream, angel food cake, brown cake, coffee and cigars, the latter served at the close of the program. Added to the menu were delicious oranges contributed by C. W.- Smith, and shipped here specially for the occasion from Mr. Smith’s own Eaves at Orlando, Florida. The ntjuet was served by the banquet committee, consisting of W. H. Burd, Noah Wenger, J. E. Lake, W. L. Gibson, Frank Caley, R. C. Town­ send, ably assisted by a number of the ladies of the village, who took hold with their characteristic willing­ ness and energy and made the service such that it evoked favorable com­ ment from all present.

The weather is severe, and ns egg prices are high every egg added to the'basket rep­ resents a good profit. See that the house Is tight, except openings In the front left for ventilation. See that these windows are so protected that snow does not blow in. Whether you will keep the hens shut In or allow them to run out will depend upon your general plan of operation. If feeding in litter is used, it will be best to keep the hens Indoors as much as possible, and careful watch will be necessary to see that the birds are kept busy and always too hungry to mope around, yet the January ben must never go to bed with an empty crop.

Washington, June 13.—As the result of President Taft's insistence that the new railroad bill should include some provision looking to the control of the new issues of stocks and bonds by railroad companies, It was decided at a White House conference that a para­ graph shall be added to the bill pro­ viding for a commission to Investigate and report'at the next session of con­ gress the beet means of dealing with this situation.

WESTERN UNION IS INDICTED Charged by Federal Grand Jury With Violations of National Bucket Shop Law. Washington, June 11.—The federal grand Jury returned an indictment against the Western Union Telegraph company, charging it with 42 viola­ tions of the bucket shop law of March 1, 1909. It fs charged that the Western Union, by means of a telegraph wire and ticker, aided and abetted the con­ duct of a bucket shop tn-the District of Columbia. The 42 counts vary only in the date on which the alleged vio­ lations are said to have occurred. Sue* the Butter Trust.

Whitelaw Reid will be retired owing io the wish of King George V. the care of wee chicks. Of all the work of the poultry farm tbst of car­ ing for the newly hatched chicks is the most difficult to systematise or to intrust to the bands of hired labor. The coops or outdoor brooder* should be well scattered about, as It is not good.for large flocks of young chicks to run topetner. Moreover, young chicks' must be protected in their feeding quarters from the pres­ ence of old fowls, which in their greed to get at the food meant for the little fellows will run over and trample them. On the farm this Is most easily arranged by having the food for chicks in a slat coop, which keep* out the grown fowls. May. .May, tike April, Is a month in which the hens take care of themselves. The batching of the larger breeds should be finished the early part of this month. Hens of all breeds will insist upon wlshlij to brood, but con be broken up by penning them in an out­ door coop for a few days. Little chicks will require a great deal of care, and when thundershowers eomo up some one must hasten out, fre­ quently tn the rain, and see that the foolish hens and frightened brooder chicks get under shelter and do not crouch up in some fence corner. If perchance some have been forgotten one should make a thorough search as soon cs the shower Is over and bring all soaked chicks into the house to dry. Those? found down flat on their backs and apparently dead, if rescued soon enough and wrapped in woolen rags and placed around the stove, will revive In a most astonish­ ing fashion. Jun*. The hatching of Leghorns should be brought to a close during the early part of this month and all male birds taken from the yards. The growing chicks will now be old enough to need less care, and the chief source of the poultryman’s loss will be duo to his carelessness In leaving coops unpro­ tected from ‘‘varmints.” Lice and mites will now begin to invade the poultryman's camp more abundantly, and with the approach of the warm weather more cleanliness tn feeding vessels and at>ont the house will be necessary. During June crops should be' sown to supply green food in the midsum­ mer, When the grass and spring sown crops dry up. . July. The poultryman’s work is consider­ ably relieved during July. Indeed, this Is the best season of the year for him to leave the chicken farm to the hired man and visit his kinfolk. Cleanliness to keep down disease and lice and care in gathering the eggs fre­ quently and marketing them promptly are the chief points worthy of men­ tion. Early broilers will be ready for mar­ ket during this month. August. WHITE WYANI1OTTE COCKERED ered more than once a day so that they will not freeze In the nest. Do | not neglect to provide green food. If | your supply of fall cabbages and oth­ er vegetables run out, it will be nec­ essary to use either steamed clover or alfalfa or to sprout oats. February. The February work of the poultry yard is very like that of the January. The main idea at this season of the year is to keep the hens laying. When the warm days conje, the droppings that have accumulated In the poultry bouse will become damp and malodor­ ous and should be removed. If there is a heavy fall of snow shovel a little strip in front of the bouse, and If hens range around stables or In feed lots It will pay tp shovel a path for them. During very sloppy days it may be desirable to shut the hens in. ns it Is of little benefit for them to trail around Id the slush, and It will result In the soiling of the eggs. March. -WJth a well kept flock of poultry the March egg yield is the heaviest of the year. Eggs are declining in price rapidly at this season and should be marketed frequently. By this month any supply of vegetables kept from the prevlouc fall will have been exhausted, and with the feeling of spring In the air the poultryman must not forget that warm days will not bring the Uens spring foods. Dry clover and alfalfa are fair, but sprout­ ed oats are better, and It will be worth the trouble necessary to prepare them. As soon as the ground may be worked all yards or. If on a farm, a patch of ground near the poultry house should be sown In oats. The chickens may pull one-half the crop up by the roots as it comes through the ground, but it Is the chickens we are Interested in and not the oat crop. If the Incubator is to .be used for hatching it should be started about the 1st of March, while the hens may now be set as rapidly as they become broody. With the heavy breeds every effort should be made to have the bulk of the chickens hatch during the month of April. During the last two weeks in March Incubators are to be set for Leghorns. April. With green food sown the previous month the egg production problem in April will simplify itself considerably. The bens can now range abundantly, and the care necessary in the winter time to keep them busy and happy is no longer required. April is the poul­ tryman’s busy month. His labors with the layers consist chiefly In gather­ Ing the eggs, but the work is most ar­ duous with sitting hens and incuba­ tors. which are now running full blast, and even more of nls time must go to 9 In August wo have the same prob­ lems as tiro previous month. Be sure the hens have abundant water and green food. The egg yield should show a considerable Increase over July. The male birds of the heavier breeds should now be got into shape for market. The poultry breeder should take careful observation of his growing stock and make selection of the most vigorous youngsterti to be re­ served. from which to pick the breed­ ing stock. More green crops should now be sown for the fall pasturage. All two-year-old hens and. If you have abundant pullets, a portion'of the year­ ling bens may now be sent to market September. Eggs are now advancing in price, but It is neither right nor, in the long run. profitable to hold them. Sell all eggs promptly and try to get recognition for your honesty and quality of your prod­ uct Young male birds, especially Leg­ horns. should be separated from the pullets. The coops #r colony bouses in which the young pullets have grown should be'gradually moved toward the bouse which Is to be the winter quar­ ters and the pullets got into the habit of roosting in the laying bouse. Nice secluded nests should be arranged, as a few precocious pullets will begin lay­ ing in this month. Sow wheat and rye for winter green foods. October. Pullets will now begin laying In con­ siderable numb rs. If you have fancy trade keep their eggs, which are small, separated from the larger stock. Any remaining old bens that are not to be kept through the • winter should be dis­ posed of. Runty pullets and nil young male birds not needed for breeding stock should also be sent to market. November. This month should And the laying flock nicely Installed In their winter quarters. November eggs are high In price and scarcer than at any other time during the year. The poultry fancier will now select bls birds and get them ready for the shows. As the nights grow colder use judgment In closing up the poultry bouse. If It is closed tightly the hens which have been roosting in the open air will catch cold, and roup will be the result Keep a careful lookout for this dread dis­ ease and take immediate steps to cor­ rect things If the symptoms of roup appear. December. December is the height of the poul­ try show season. The fancier will be a very busy man. His birds must be cooped, trained and prepared for the show's. The poultryman himself may be away at shows, and some one else will have to look after the flock at home. By all means layers must nnt be neglected. Not only are December eggs highly profitable, but layers that do not start In this month will be very liable to keep in the background until the warm spell* of March.

The frame of-the old school bouse is now used for a horse barn by Peter Maurer. The districtboard consisted of Abel Simons, director: Joseph Spencer, moderator, P. M. Hyde, as­ sessor. The first school house was, built on present site and cost *300. The present one was built in 1886 and cost *1100. The first teacher was Sarah Brooks, now Mrs. Sarah Mapes of Olivet. I know of but four of the first residents of the district, Mrs. Pierce, Mr. Palmer, George Mason and Sam Norton. The present residents that send children to school are John Cheeseman, Sam Norton, A.

Trautman hit to Boardman, who threw wild to first, Mitchell scor­ ing. Johnson tried to head Purchi* at third and the throw went wide and Purchis registered.

Here a wild howl went up from the visitors, who claimed that Mason took two bases on an overthrow, the ground rules allowing but one, but the umpire had it figured out just as it actually happened, and be allowed Mason's score to be counted. The whole Lake Odessa team, manager and all, sur­ rounded the umpire, and th spectators of course thronged around to find out how the thing was coming out. One of the Lake Odessa players ordered one spectator off the groupds, and they mixed at once. They got in one pretty fair sort of a round before the players and spectators got them apart, and after the excitement quieted down the Lake Odessa team refused to go on with the game unless Mason was set back at third, but as the umpire stood his ground they finally decided to go on with the game. The excitement had proven too much for the vizi tom, how­ ever, and Nashville duplicated their four runs of the previous inning. Gid­ dings, first up, got a single. Mitchell was safe at first on Boardman's error, Giddings, who had stolen second, go­ ing to third and Mitchell pilfering second on the first ball thrown. Then Purchis pulled off a peach of a double to right field, scoring both runners. Trautman walked. Purchis swiped third, Wolf was thrown out. Habersaat got one'on the coco, Mason hit one to Shepard, who fumbled, Purchis scoring, and Trautman coming across when Shepard let Eddy’s throw to catch Mason stealing get away from him, Mason going to third, where he died when Irland struck out. That ended the scoring, the rest of the game being a case of three up, three out. We have not yet had the time to tabulate the score of the game, which is so full of errors that it wouldn’t look good in print, anyway. TEACHERS’ EXAMINATION. and adults. of Schools.

FROM THE^SOUTH Latter from Alabama Describing In ths South. Huntsville, Ala., June 4. 1910. The News: I promised to write again, ao will dow first tell you about cotton raising as far as it has gone. When Mr. ■Farmer thinks the time has come to bed up, which is from March to .May in this locality, he goes to tbe field with his one mule and a bull-tongue plow, and marks off rows in last year’s cotton or corn field, all the way from three to four feet apart, then taking a small turning plow, he goes down one side of this mark and back to tbe other, making a ridge of dirt over where the mark was, and so on through the field, making ridges aboutoverr three or four feeL Somedo not go to the trouble to mark off first, but are guided by last year,’* cotton or corn rows. Now we have the Sound thrown up in ridges about ree to four feet apart all over a large field, and are about ready to put in the seed, so a mule is again nltched to a log, long enough to reach two ridges, or a float made of boards is used, and these ridges are floated lengthwise flattening the topdown, and tbe cotton planter is run down the middle of the flattened ridge, and with favorable weather the seed is soon up so the rows can be seen. This is the time when the darky shines, for they are all needed, from the little chap just big enough to handle a hue, up to the old white headed ‘’Old Black Joe,’’ women, girls and all tn the cotton'from early .morning until dark, “chopping cotton.” You can see them in any direction you look, and it is necessary to get the cotton thlned to a stand,’and the grass or weeds hoed out as soon as possible, for should the grass get the start your name is failure for that crop. First the old mule and a cultivator go through the field, up on one side and down on the other of each row and the choppers then follow, and chop out all but what is wanted. And if you have an idea that a darky can’t work just try to follow one in 'the cornfield, and you will be of a differ­ ent opinion long before the sun goes down. On our farm we have a color­ ed family, consisting of mhn, wife and three’children. They are all field hands and great workers. They are now chopping cotton, and cutting bar­ ley. The barley ground will be plow­ ed and sowed to cow peas, and the oat ground will be plowed and plant­ ed to corn and make a crop this year, maturing before frost. Spring was backward here. We had a frost the middle of April that nipped tbe ccfrn and potatoes, and killed early beans. And although the weather has been bright and pleasant it has been too cool for cotton to do well, so that the crop is at least three weeks late. Now, perhaps it would be interesting to know how a great deal of the corn is planted, not all, for there are some here who have Improved machinery and have given up the old ways. Weil first, if the man feels disposed, he plows the ground, if not, he marks it off with the old bull-tongue and mule, and then someone, man, woman or child comes along with a little pail or sack of corn, drops a kernel or two in a place in this mark, then the old mule goes up and down with'die little turning plow and throws the dirt on the corn, then later the middles are plowed or bursted out, the corn is given one or two plowings later. This of course, is the old plan, but some have corn-planters and two-horse riding cultivators now, and there is now and then a corn binder and a shredder seen. I saw a manure spreader the other day, a new one just going out of town. There is great interest in stock raising, but very few are fenced up for it, fences being mostly road and line fences, there- being .a ^ew strands of barbed wire. Some are making money with cows, good butter beipg scarce and high. One of our neighbors has a woman who furnishes her with butter the year through at 35 cents a pound. The barbed wire turns cows very well, if one gets the habit of pushing her head through, a crotched stick is put on her neck and tied across, and that ends it. I bought three calves the latter part of January and the first of March turned them out on the farm, and they are doing fine, at no cost to me. I intended buying more, but had no winter feed and had made no preparations for winter pasture, which should be done in the fall, as the grass kills out with bard frost. Japanese clover comes in naturally here, seeding itself and a field left to itself will soon be full of Japaneese clover, this makes good summer pasture, but kills down with frost. Alsike, red clover^ red top, burr clover, etc. keeps green ail winter, and makes good feed. Sheep do all right here, but must have woven wire fence, as barbed will not turn them, and so there are not many flocks. But those who are fixed for them can run them on pasture the year through, and lambs bring a big price. The same with goats, there are some nice flocks where they have woven wire fences. The people here have fought grass and kept the land bare because it is so much easier to keep cotton clean, and very little hay has been made in ti>e cotton bell. People who must have hay and do not raise any have to pay from >15 to >30 a ton for it. Hay lias been from >20. to 130 a ton other day the way it here. A young darkey was in jail for a alight offense with a fine of bearly >40 against him, which be could not pay. A very alight offense is sulhcient when there is cotton to chop.

SENATOR J. C. BURROWS. TO4STMASTER E. A. STOWE. He illustrated by statistics its stead­ fast and continued growth from the time of its inception to the present, in spite of foes without and traitors within, because it is the party of the people, and the people you can al­ ways trust. He illustrated how the greenback and the free silver move­ ments swayed the people for a time, but that after they went home and slept it over and thought it over they always make up their minds that honesty was the best policy and that our debts should be paid in honest eorrency and paid in full, and that was why the United States had today tbe highest credit of any nation in the world, because the people were honest and wanted their government to be honest. Coming back to the tariff, he said tbe present tariff law was not framed in the dark, but was the best tariff law the country had ever bad and that the future would prove it. In fact, the present is proving it. He says tHfc maximum and minimum clause is opening all countries of the world to American exports of all kinds, the products of the farm and products of the factory. He said they bad appointed a tariff board, com­ posed of experts; and asked if that wasn't quite us well as a commission, which would make more noise and be much more expensive. He paid high tribute lo President Taft, whom he claimed would prove to be one of tbe best presidents the country had ever had. The Senator was listened to with marked reaped and attention, and at the close of his remarks was heartily applauded. The toastmaster then called upon Railroad Commissioner Glasgow for a few remarks, speaking feelingly of the high service he hud rendered the state as a member of tbe senate, and as railroad commissioner, and said that he looked for him to become the chief executive of the state four years hence. His remarks were received with hearty applause and Mr. Glas­ gow responded with a short talk, rendering praise to the ladies for their part in tbe banquet, thanking the speakers for their attendance and their eloquent responses, and con­ cluded by urging the importance of every good Republican making it a point to get out and vote at the pri­ maries. The Republicans of Nashville and vicinity are well pleased with the suc­ cess of their efforts. The banquet was attended by nearly three hundred people, and was onlv limited to that number by the size of. the hall. An­ other hundred tickets could easily have been sold could their holders have been accommodated. The club has in consideration the holding of several more banquets in other parts of the county before the fall elections, but no definite arrange­ ments have as yet been made. Mayor Ellis of Grand Rapids ac­ companied J. E. Worthington to the banquet as chaperone. And nobody will deny that Jack needs one. Hastings sent about "5 enthusiastic Republicans to the banquet. Middle-* vllle sent 35, and Woodland, Ver­ montville, Lake Odessa, Charlotte and other near-by towns were well represented. Great credit for the success of the banquet is due to W. H.

In buying a suit you want to see the style in which it is made, what the linings, padding, can­ vas and hair cloth looks like, how the hand work looks, and have the opportunity of trying on the coat, vest and trousers to know whether you are get­ ting a good fit or not. Besides, a piece of goods al­ ways looks different when made up than it does in a small sample, so if you will come to our store you will find a nice assortment of suits in all sizes, styles and fabrics that suits are made of. We have cheap­ er suits for those who want a slip-on-suit, and we afeo have the famous Hermanwile guaranteed line of absolutely all-wool clothing in the choicest creations of some of the best clothes designers.

Tbe game which Nashville lost to Eaton Rapids at Riverside park Tues­ day was lost on its merits, Eaton Rapids having .all thy best of it all tbe way until the ninth inning, when Nashville came to life and started a little doings which looked for a time ns though it might change tbe results. Russell, a southpaw who pitched for Eaton Rapids, had the locals eating out of his hand for the -first eight innings, Giddings getting tbe first hit for Nashville to start the eighth ses­ sion and being promptly smothered at first when Russell picked a hot liner from Dollar’s bat and handed tbe ball to Stringham before Gid could make a move to get back. To show how good Russell was, he took the nings, and struck out twelve of tbe home hopes during the game. In the ninth, Purchiss started things with a clean single, stole second and third while Trautman was fanning and came home when Scoffeld bit to W. Knapp, who tried to catch Purchis at the plate, Custer doopping the throw. Scofield stole second on the first ball pitched to Brumm, and after Brumm retired, short to first, scored on Ha­ bersaat’s timely single to center. With one run needed to tie the score, Mason hit a hard liner, to left, which Knapp plucked after a hard run, and it was all over. Eaton Rapids had things pretty­ well their own way right from the start. Brumm had Pascoe, the first batter, struck out, but Deller dropped the third strike and Pascoe was safe. He stole second and third, Deller's throws in both cases being too late, and when Strong hit a little grounder to Brumm, Pascoe scored, knocking the ball out.of Deller's hands, al­ though Deller had him out by six feet. They got another in the sixth on a single and a stolen base by El­ dred and a single by VanAuker, and picked ths winning run In tbe ninth. W. Knapp was tne first up and hit a clean single to right field, going to second on Purchiss’ low throw to Gid. Trautman got him at third, however, by a lightning throw on Eldred's grounder, Eldred being safe at first on fielder's choice. He stole second and scored on VanAuker’s hit.

Nashville was very _________ listless in __ the' game Tuesday, apparently affected by the humidity in the atmosphere. If they had started with the spirit they showed in the two closing round* tbe result might have been much different. Trautman covered himself with glory in the sixth inning by going about six feet into the air and grab­ bing a hot liner from Knapp’s bat that looked like a two-bagger. This high jumping stunt that tbe boys learn in the high school certainly comes in good sometimes. Appleton gave the best exhibition of umpiring which has been given on the home lot Ulis season, and be made his decisions stand up. Knapp came In from left field on the run to make a kick on one decision, but be went back to bis place just as fast as he came in, amid tbe hoots of the crowd. The Eaton Rapids Woolen Mills boys came over Saturday and did things to the Lenta Table Co. team. Tbe game was a little too one-sided to be very intereating, and w full of errors on both sides.

Simply to put people wise, there are unscrupulous dealers that will adver­ tise clothing as all wool and worsted. Now that looks all right in print, but if that suit was all wool, he would not add tbe worsted to it, but simply say all wool, for 90% of the clothing ad­ vertised in that way the worsted is nothing but mercerized cotton. To avoid being gulled, buy your clothes of Greene, the all-wool man, and get the worsted that is spelled “w-o-o-1”. The W. C. T. U. meeting held at the home of Mrs. M. H. Reynolds was well attended.

Yesterday afternoon a horse belonging to Don Hosmer, which was hitched on a light wagon, became frightened by a trunk failing off a baggage cart at the M. C. depot, and took a lively pace up State street to Reed street, turning to the left to Main street, nearly up-setting a car­ riage belonging to F. E.

E. church where the program was carried out. Chanceller Commander Ray C. Town­ send read a very interesting paper on the history of Ivy'lodge, and Von W.

Lentz sang a very preuy se­ lection which was followed by an ex­ cellent address on “Fraternity" by Hon. C. L. Glasgow. After the ex­ ercises a committee was appointed to go to the cemetery and decorate the graves of the departed brothers. The fire department was called out last Friday afternoon at about 3:30 by a fire, which started in the ruins of the Brooks evaporator plant on East Sherman street, that partly burned down a few years ago. The fire is thought to have started from a spark from a4rain that passed just before the fire started. The fire was first discoverd by Mrs. Burdette Benedict and the alarm given. At about the same time the fire was also discovered by some of Downing’s help who happened to be working just back of the building. They immediately got busy with pails ana as there is a watering tank just across the road they had tbe fire under control before the'fire department could arrive. It would be a wise plan if the village council would get together and have this old pile of rubbish removed, as it is apt to catch fire from some night train and there is no telling what the result would be. It would also greatly improvement that part of the village to nave the place cleaned up. GRANT FELLOWS OF-HUDSON. One of the speakers at the Nashville banquet, and a prominent candidate for attorney general Robert Newton of Hastings, brother of Isa Newton of this place, was drowned in Fair lake Sunday while in bathing. Mr. Newton was 30 years of age and unmarried. Newton with a fiarty of friends was camping at the ake and his companions had left tbe I camp in his charge while they went fishing. Newton went out in a boat from which he was seen to dive. He was taken with cramps and never came up. Joe Kneistrick, a near riend of Newton, dove three times before be was able to bring up the body. Noth­ ing could be done to restore life. Newton lived in Nashville during the summer of 190S while working at his trade as upholsterer. His father and mother residing hi Hastings,two broth­ ers and two sisters survive. Funeral was hold Tuesday morning, and burial tdok place in Hastings. Three Nashville young people will graduate from the University of Michigan next week. Miss Marie Rasey from the literary department and Claude Marshall ano Carl Brattin from the law department. All have come through with high honors as a result of hard‘work, and Nashville may well be proud of them. Miss Rasey has accepted a tine position as a teacher of Latin and German in the high school at Lanark, Illinois, where her success will be watched wijh pleas­ ure by her many Nashville friegds. Messrs. Marshall and Brattin have not as yet decided where they will lo­ cate, but there is no question that wherever they may decide to cast their lots they will meet with success, for they are both tine fellows and not afraid to tackle hard work and plenty of it _______ Fire was discovered in the dry goods store of David B. Satovsky al Char­ lotte, by a young man riding by on a bicycle at about 1:42 Sunday morn­ ing. The young man went to the en­ gine house and, not seeing anyone, notified the clerk of the Phenix House, who at once telephoned the fire de­ partment, and the firemen were soon on the spot. After two and one half hours of bard work they succeeded in putting out the fire, but not until all the goods on the second floor were destroyed and a good deal of the downstairs stock badly injured by smoke and water. Much of the down­ stairs stock in the front of the store was carried to the shoe stere of Albert Murray, who owns the building, and saved from injury. Mr. Satovsky estimates his damages al 88,000. Brown Brothers’ clothing store on the south and Clyde Harmon’s shoe store on the north were not affected. The origin is unknown. Mr. Satovsky’s loss is covered by insurance. A rather exhilarating but lucky mixup culminated back of the M. C. freight house Monday afternoon at about 4:30. Chas. Warner, son of Abe Warner, who runs a store at Warnerville, had brought down a load of eggs for Downing & Bullis, and it seems that Warner and Fred Bullis had the eggs unloaded and were starting to drive away, when a large umbrelia, that was fastened to tne wagon, tipped forward in such a man­ ner as to frighten the horses and things were doing for a short time, Fred Bullis being the first to be thrown out: the team then started around the freight house at a scheduled rate, where the wagon up-set at striking the railroad, throwing Warner out, and what would have happened to him is unknown had not the wagon caught on the track, stopping the horses. As luck would have it neither Bullis nor Warner received any injuries, although they both had the appear­ ance of combatants after a wrest­ ling match. The only damage done was a broken wagon tongue. Fred says that this is nothing as compared to his pipe dreams of a future auto wreck. ________ M. L. Cook of Hastings made an ex­ cellent address at the M. E. church last Sunday afternoon al the men’s meeting. It was a masterly address, and showed the utmost painstaking care in its preparation. Mr. Cook has advanced notions along Christian and church lines, and some of his ideas awakened criticism, but it was friendly. His whole address was a plea for unity among churches. He remarked that in a village the size of Nashville, one church would be suf­ ficient; that one church could be well supported; that it would have com­ manding influence in tbe village, which a number of weaker churches cannot command. He claimed that the real difference between most of the churches was not sufficient to keep them apart. The general opinion among those who heard the address was that Mr. Cook went a trifle too far in bis plea for unity. While it is acknowledged that churches of .similar government and doctrine should enter into an organic union, and all the churches—Christian churches—not thus related, should foster a spirit of union, vet to merge them all, regardless of doctrine or government, into one organic church, would lose for the church the stimulus of friendly rivalry which is so neces­ sary, not only in any prosperous . business, but also in'the church. So deeply were the people interested in Mr. Cook's address, that should he come again, he will have a bouse full to hear him.

Brumm got twice as many strike­ out* as Morgan and only allowed tbe .samp number of hits, but'tbe luck of the game was against him. Nashville took a little streak of hit­ ting In the sixth and put two runs across, but it was only a temporary rally and there was nothing doing after that. . Mahoney, the colored boy from Bellevue, was behind the bat for the visitors, and caught a clever game. He is a hard worker and a clean, con­ scientious player. ■ The crowd guyed White unnwreifully when he came to bat in the eighth inning. He walked up to the plate, first man up, with “home run" written in every move.

Mater caught his first game for the team at Middleville Friday, and did remarkably well, haring but one passed ball and throwing to bases in good shape. He missed the third strike several times, but got his man at first in each case. The next game on tbe home grounds, that between the Watslawik tailors of Grand Rapids and tbe home team, promises to be one of the 'most inter­ esting of the season. The Watslawiks lost the Decoration day game here, and are determined to wi’n this one so that they can have a third game with the boys. The double umpire system will be used, so that - there may be a man do*n on every play, and there is little doubt but that the game will be a fast and exciting one. Charlotte 8; Nashville 3. Nashville lost to Charlotte Tuesday because Charlotte played the better game of ball, which isn't necessarily saying, much. Brumm had an off day, because he got hit on the pitch­ ing arm in practice Monday evening, by a foul ball which nearly broke his arm, and Charlotte had things all their own way on the start, winning the game in tbe first inning by virtue of four tallies made on four singles and a double. Eight of the visitors went to bat in this opening session, and it lodked like a slaughter, but Brumm’s arm took a brace and they only got two more hits off him during the game, Pender picking up a scratch single in the third, which surprised him as much as it did anybody else, after two men had got on by errors, with-the result that Charlotte added two unearned runs. Again In the ninth, following a hit and an error which put two men on, Smith caught an easy fly in center and after start­ ing in with the ball, dropped it and two more scores were chalked up for Charlotte. Every man on the Nash­ ville team with the exception of Trautman was charged with an error, Scofield getting two to' make the a-erage one to each man. Nashville made the same number of hits that their opponents did, but could not get the same number of runs, and that accounts for the result. Simply an off day for all the team, ana when that happens no team can win. How­ ever, the boys are determined to re­ gain their lost laurels and will pul in more time at practice Xhan in the past. Tbeir last game showed more “pepper" than any of their recent games, in spite of the bad showing, and if they keep up their courage they will soon get rid of the hoodoo which seems to have been with them of late.

There will be five others, later in the year and the total 1 purses offered in the state amount to over 8200.000 on the mile tracks alone, putting Michigan in the lead of all states in the Union. Simply to put people wise, there are unscrupulous dealers that will adver­ tise clothing as all wool and worsted. Now that looks all right in print, but if that suit was all wool, be would not add the worsted to it, but simply say all wool, for 90% of the clothing ad­ vertised in that way tbe worsted is nothing but mercerized cotton. To avoid being gulled, buy your clothes of Greene, tbe all-wool man, and get the worsted that is spelled “w-o-o-l". NOTICE.

The Tailors started out In the open­ ing session with three runs, which looked large until the second half of the inning, when Nashville came back with four. They really made five, but the visiting umpire would not allow it. Marshall got a hit, with two men on, and went to second when tbe third baseman overthrew first in a vain effort to catch him. Under the •ground rules, second was as far as Marshall could go on an overthrow at first, bat he went to third when the first baseman was trying to catch Trautman at the plate, and scored when the catcher threw wild to third In an effort to stop him at that base. Under all rules, Marshall was en­ titled to the score, but the visiting umpire sent him back to second and the home team stood for it rather than make a row. Watslawiks scored three more in tbe sixth on two hits, four stolen bases and an error, but Nashville tied the score In the seventh by making two. Schfield got on through David's error, Sloan was safe but forced Sco­ field out. Giddings was hit by a pitched ball. With Sloan at second' club, a delightful time was enjoyed by everyone.

Walton’ of Maple Grove township, a ‘‘real’’ daughter of the American Revolution, having lieen granted a pension of $8 per month for the remainder of her life by the National Society of the Daughters of American Revolution. Mrs. Walton was discovered by "Mrs. J. B. Marshall of this "tillage, who is a member of the Emily Virginia Ma­ son Chapter of the D. A. R. of Hast­ ings. Thinking that a short sketch of the family history of Mrs. Walton might be of interest to our readers we give the following: Mrs. Walton is a daughter of Peter Edmonds, who served as a private in Capt.'. William Meyers' company, Sixth battalion, Northamton county mililia, of Penn­ sylvania, of which Nicholas Kern was colonel. He was born in Pennsyl­ vania August 1, 1760, and died in Wayne county,Ohio, August 4, 1854, aged 94 years. He was buried near West Wooster, Ohio. He was maried three times. M.rs. U alton is the daughter of his third wife, her father being 73 years old at the time of hur birth, which occurred August 16, 1833, in Plain, Wayne county, Ohio. Her father died when she was 21 years old, living to be grandfather to two of her children. Her mother lived to be 89 years old. Mrs. Walton's father was a powerful man, standing over six feet, and built in proportion. He wAs so strong that at one lime when he met a deer in a fenced lune and the animal tried to jump over the- fence, he caught it and killed it with bis hands. She remembers silting on her father's knee and listening to his tales of the Revolution and the stirring times after the conflict. Since 1877 Mrs. Walton and her husband have resided in Maple Grove. They have had fifteen children, thirteen of whom are living. SCHOOL MEETING.

For an ’’off year.” there was a goodly attendance at the annual school meeting held in the high school room Monday evening, nearly seventy votes being cast on the only ballot taken, while there were a num­ ber present who did not vote, some because they did not care to and others because they were not sure they were qualified. * The meeting was called to order by President Chris. Marshall, and the minutes of the last meeting wef-e read by Secretary C. E. Roscoe. The minutes were approved as read. The secretary then read the financial re­ port for the year, which was approved. The election of a trustee to succeed C. A. Hough was then taken up. Frank MeDerby and Frank Caley were appointed tellers and the officers were sworn by Mr. Hough. There were 62 voles cast, of which C. A. Hough received 42, W. A. Quick 18, scattering 2. The meeting then ad­ journed, after a request from ftapl. C. W. Appleton for all to visit the school duriog-lhe coming year. The financial report of the district is given in another column, and will be of interest to ail. There remains but 84,000 to be paid on the school bonds in order to put the district out of debt on the new building, and the amount is not due fo. nearly four years, but will undoubtedly be paid at the rale of 81,000 per year until it is all wiped out. The bonds draw interest al the rate of 34% per annum. HARVEST festival. The committees of the Harvest Festival met at the rooms of the Nashville club Friday night for a consultation over the coming festival. The sports committee is devising new and interesting stunts to be .pulled off, the parade committee^is planning to made this years parade the largest and best ever, the attractions com­ mittee is pulling wires for attractions which will put in the shade all pre­ vious efforts, and the chairman is to appoint a special committee to have charge of the home-coming end of the affair. Altogether, everything looks promising toward the celebration ot this year being the biggest and best we ha.ve ever held, which all will ad­ mit will be going some. It is now up to the people of Nashville to take hold all together and help push, and they will do it, for that is the spirit of Nashville. We doubt if there is a town in Michigan which has a better spirit of unanimity than Nash­ ville. we have our little factional scraps, to be sure, but there are mighty few “knockers,” and when they start anything they are mighty soon frowned down by the loyal and patriotic citizens, who are so greatly ’~ in the majority. Now let us — til take . hold with a will and boost for * the Harvest Festivalof 1910. BELSON-WOOLEY.

It was quite a blow to the family when they found they had only their home and a few thousands left Jack Churchill was the heir of his uncle, Robert Vaughn, the Michigan millionaire, and was much sought after. . Two gay seasons had passed. Jack did everything to make Dorothy have a pleasant time. The many late eve- [ nlngs. dancing, etc., began to show on Dorothy; she was thinner, her eyes failed to have the brilliancy that at one time made them so beautiful. And Jack had never in the entire two years mentioned marriage to her. Col. Madden, seeing the change In his daughter, and knowing that Jack bad not been, to him to ask for Doro­ thy. supposed she was grieving. Call­ ing bis daughter to him one morning. he said: "Dorothy, does Jack seem to be as attentive as ever, or have you lost your heart to another and refused the boy? You know, my dear, hpw' we’re situated. Margaret Is old enough to 'come out.' You were a year her senior when you made your debut, and it isn't doing her justice. You must make up your mind to marry"? and give your sister an opportunity. I cannot keep two daughters in society." "Father." said Dorothy, "two years ago Jack asked me to marry him; I begged him to wait; 1 hated to settle down; since then he has never men­ tioned it. but I will try to look my prettiest to-night and see what I can do."

The limit to eighteen (count 'em!) That * an average of two to the inning or two to each player, just as you prefer. And that isn’t c-ountihg bat­ tery errors, such as wild pitches and fiaaaed balls, but just regular muffs, ambles, boots, wild throws, etc. Some of the boys didn't get their share, but that was because the other boys wanted more than their share. Of course Nashville was badly bandlcap'ped in starting the game, as Brumm’s arm is so lame that be can not use it, so Mason was put io. He worked three innings, was touched for'five hits, which resulted, with the assistance of a perfectly good assort­ ment of errors, in Vermontville’s ac­ cumulating eight scores, when he quit in disgust and went ovdr to third, Brumm going to the box and Scofield to short. Brumm could only loss them up, and the slaughter continued. In only one solitary inning did th** enemy fail to score. Trautman pitched the last inning and nob->dy got a hit off him, but be gave one base on. balls, tried to kill a couple ot batters, and the usual complement of errors netted two more runs. That made a total of seventeen, and that was plenty. On the other hand, Nashville never had a ghost of a show to score.

Her mother's voice was absent-minded. She was so busy. The sun shone 'on her bent bronze head, and brought out the golden lights In the little'curls on her broad, white forehead. The small girl’s mother was very young, but her eyes were sad. The small girl made the rabbit prance back and forth and back and forth, and still the man with the gray hat stood on the corner Idly. Then suddenly a dreadful thing hap­ pened. The red rabbit, being moved too rapidly on his red cotton legs, lost bls balance and fell down the length of the tall tenement. . “Oh," the small girl shrieked, "he’s hit the man with the gray hat." "You’ll have to. go after him," said her mother, "and come right back." "I'll walk and walk and walk,” sang the small girl as she started. On the lower landing she met the man in the gray hat He was big and tall, anu the small girl thought that his eyes were beautiful. "I was coming up,” he said.

"I’m looking for some one," he said, "some one who Is hid­ den In some of these big houses on this big street—and I can’t find her." "Oh, is It a fairy story?" asked the small girl, eagerly, and she sat down on the step and spread out her small short skirts sociably. “Yes, it’s a fairy story,” he said, and sat down beside her, "and I am hunting for the castle where the prin­ cess is imprisoned, and I'm the poor knight swho has wandered and wan­ dered, and can't find her—” "But some day you will find her," comforted the small person, "and you’ll give her a kiss, and youll live happy ever after." . "I'm not so sure,” said the rueful knight, "that she’ll let me kiss her." “Why not?" ■ "Well, you see, the princess and the knight quarreled awfully, and the princess ran away from him and said she would never come back.” "Oh,” gasped the small girl, “that's different from any fairy tale I ever heard." “Ym. It's different" "Did the princess have golden hair?" the small girl demanded, eager for de­ tails. “No, but It was brown with golden lights, and with little curls on her fore­ head." "Like mother's," said the small girl, happily. 'Like—" He caught his breath and looked at her closely.

Many people never suspect their kid­ neys. If suffering from u lame, weak or* aching back thev think that it is only a muscular weakness: when urin­ ary'trouble sets in they think it will soon correct itself. And so It is with all the other symptoms of kidney dis­ order*. That is just where tue danger lies. You must cure these troubles or they may lead to diabetes or Bright*.* disease. The best remedy to use is Doan’s Kidney Pills. It cures all ills which are caused by weak or djseased, kidneys. Nashville people testify to permanent cures. Henry Wolcott. High and Gregg Sts., Nashville, Mich., savs: "Last spring I had a severe attack of lame back and for several weeks was unable to attend to my work. I could hardly get around and my kidneys were in a ?ery |»oor condition. Although I doc­ tored and took any amount of medi­ cine, nothing helped me and I was at a loss to know what to do Finally I procured Doan's Kidney Pills from Furniss’ drug store and their use was followed by prompt relief. In a few days the lameness and pain had en­ tirely left me and my kidneys no long­ er troubled me. 1 cannot say too much in favor of Doan’s Kidndy Pill*.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

The antiseptic smile is just the ordinary smile with a new name; just tbe old style "tulle that drawa poisoned thoughts out of the mind aud bitter feelings out of toe heart and makes the body with all its attachment* proof against nearly everything hurt­ ful. An antiseptic smile in toe. eye is great; it really keeps the bag of bitterness off the bald spot^ it makes tbe man who has to meet the dismal man of good spirit. The poor devil who has to go the rounds of heavy work is kept from breaking down if he acquires the practice of the anti­ septic smile, while the man who has to endure the inertia of people is saved from the ravages of the nervous break-down germ if he gets tbe habit of seeing the humorous side of things and places the antiseptic smile on the edges of his' lips.

Many men have started in business with a capita) only of ability, hard work, honesty and a good reputation. It is no un­ common thing for men thus handicapped to wip out and make a success of their undertakings. An important factor of their success in almost every instance, you will find, was their- bank account. Their bank deposits may not have been large, but their connection with the bank, coupled with their honesty and character was the basis of the credit they were to establish and through credit, success was possible. The management of the Farmers 4 Merchants bank has ever been mindful of the fact that the-account of the small busi­ ness man is of the same relative importance and entitled to the same sympathetic treatment at the hands of his hanker as the business of the larger corporation, and the officers of this in­ stitution have ever been on the lookout for the keen, promising beginner, and by the intelligent co-operation through the proper use of the facilities at their command, assisted him to success.

About half i-aat ten Bernice Houghtalin, who boards at Charlie Feighner* a, heard some one stop with a rig in front of the bouse, then heard some one walking up the gravel drive past the house. Ina few moments some one cautiously tried the front door, which was locked. Then Miss Houghtalin awakened Mr. Feighner’s people and Charlie got up and was parttally dressed when he heard some one try the back door, whiteh was securely bolted. The ma­ rauder then tackled the side door, with no better success, but through a window Charlie saw him pick up a pair of shoes which stood on the porch and inspect them. Ho called and asked the fellow what was wanted, when the intruder started on a run for lite highway. In the mean time the rig had disappeared, going north. Mr. Feighner hurriedly secured a re­ volver, Into which his son Ernest had slipped a couple of cartridges, and look after the fellow, running him along the road north for a short dis­ tance, when the fugitive jumped the fence and started through Wes. Noyes’ cornfield.. Feighner took a shot at him and theuniscreant prompt­ ly came back at him, firing two shots at his pursuer. After firing his other shot at the fleeing man, JFeighner re­ turned to his home and notified the neighbors and also called up Deputy Sheriff Furnlss. who repaired at once to the scene, but was unable to follow the tracks of the fellow for any dis­ tance. Mr. Noyes' people saw the fel­ low from their window as he passed their house, and Phil. Garlinger, who had gone out to look for him, thought he heard him jump over a fence back of his house, but could not get sight of him. Levi Hickman, living across the road from Feighner’s. had a knife and a pocketbook taken from his working clothes, which bung in the milk house, but the purse fortunately had but.a few pennies in it. This was undoubtedly the work of the same parties. A good double-barrelled shot-gun is about the right weapon to keep handy for such fellows. A SENSIBLE PROPOSITION. Aiderman Roe has a proposition which he intends putting up to the common council at its next meeting, which we are very sure would meet with with the hearty approval of the people of the village, and that is to have the council appoint a committee of citizens to revise the ordinances of the village. The village ordinance book at the present time Is a Chinese puzzle. For instance, some one was complaining about a stranger selling extraets-from door to door without paying a license. The matter was brought up and it was found that there were six different ordinances on the book all (tearing upon the subject, with license prices varying from two to fif een dollars per day. Many of the ordinances are claimed to be in­ valid for various reasons. Many of them should be repealed entirely, other should be amended. We believe that Aiderman Roe's suggestion Is a good one and that the whole book should be., carefully gone through by a competent committee and revised and the ordinances put in shape to suit the needs of the town and then have them enforced. Then they should be compiled into a pamphlet and a copy of the pamphlet given to every citizen who desires one, so that all may know what ordinances we have. General knowledge- of the ordinances and the penalties for their violation would make them more gen­ erally observed anu easier to enforce. A LIVELY MIX-UP We are Anxious To Clean Out our Stock of wall paper and have many big bargains in fine qualities, besides over one hundred pat­ terns that we are selling very cheap for any room in the house. You can’t afford to miss this sale if you can use any wall paper. Von W. Fumiss Mesdames John Ehret and Earl Tarbell met with'a rather lively mixup Thursday evening, while driving north of town, near Wesley Noyes' place. They were met by Dr. F. F. Shilling with his auto, and when he discovered them coming he stopped his machine and was just climbing out to go and lead the horse by. when the animal suddenly turned and ran up a steep embankment, upsetting the buggy and throwing both ladies out; the horse then turned around and came back into the road, where it was caught by Mrs..Tarbell, who by this time had managed to get upon her feet. Mrs. Tarbell’s arm was badly sprained when she was thrown out, but not broken as was reported, and with the exception of the carriage being badly broken no other damage was done. A rig from the livery stable was phoned for and the ladies taken home. Dr. Shilling had passed the horse once before, earlier In the day, but at that time it paid no attention to the automobile. WOMAN'S LITERARY CLUB. The Woman’s Literary Club' had their first annual outing at Tbornapple Lake last Thursday. Except for the warmth, it was an ideal day fora pic­ nic and nearly forty attended. During the forenoon Mrs. Beebe conducted a school, having “last day” exercises as they were forty years ago, which furnished much amusement. The program opened with a song, “America,” by the school. The primer class said their A. B. C.’s. The second class in reading read in concert.* "The Baron's Last Banquet,” which greatly pleased the audience. The arithmetic class sang their mul­ tiplication tables. One girl passed the water and some one tattled, so one of the primer class had to sit on a dunce block and wear a dunce’s cap. The first elastin spelling had words with definitions, while the second class had to pronounce their syllables. After several more songs and reci­ tations, • prize volume of ‘Pilgrim's Progress” was presented to Ida Brooks for being the best scholar. As her “Reward of Merit'’ cards hadn't reached her. the teacher treated the pupils and visitors to very fine home-made candy. The usual last day grief at losing our teacher was expressed by the pupils until she 5remised to ’ returnv next year. Her escription. of the schoolhouse where she went to school and of the old time way of teaching was interest­ ing. One of the visitors,' Mrs. Charles Smith, complimented the teacher and pupils very highly upon the progress made during the term. School closed by singing “The Old Oaken Bucket.” After partaking*of an excellent din­ ner at the Lake House, the members visited the cottages and had a general good time until train time. Thanks are due the committee for “The Story Teller’s League” for the very enjoy­ able program. Everyone declared the day most pleasant. We meet again October 4, with Mrs. Lulu Greene. .

Barry estate, be notified to tear down the same within thirty days after ser­ vice of notice of this resolution upon him, he having control of said build­ ing and premises.

Residents of Nashville and vicinity will remember Capt. S. M. Fowler and his splendidly drilled company of Knights of Pythias who gave the ex­ hibition drill at Nashville's harvest festival last year, and who made the big hit of the big week, and all will be glad to learn that they have won ad­ ditional laurels. Practically the same company which the Captain drills in the Uniform Rank, K. of P., are mem­ bers of Battle Creek lodge of Elks, and they entered the competitive drill at Detroit last week, going into the lists against highly drilled bodies from all parts of the United States. The competitive drill was held on Wednesday and Captain Fowler’s men easily captured the first prize of •500. Their hardest competitors were the famous Los Angeles “White Squadron,” winners of last year’s championship, but they were not with­ in reaching distance of the Battle Creek men. The Battle Creek company wore magnificent uniforms of white and gold, and their splendid appear­ ance and perfect alignment, with fancy evolutions performed with machine­ like precision, evoked rounds of appiause all 'along the five miles of Thursday’s grand parade. Captain Fowler, who is tfn old Nashville boy, has a host of friends in Nashville and vicinity who are al­ ways pleased to hear of his success, and his jolly drill squad made many friends here last vear. A NARROW ESCAPE. Leslie Ackett has reason to thank bis lucky stars that be is not a permant resident at Lakeside at the present time. He was coming down town Saturday evening from his home in the south part of town, riding his motorcycle at his usual pace of about fifty miles an hour. When he struck the crosswalk just south of the Quaker brook bridge he struck it at such a clip that bis machine jumped into the air, and the front wheel left the forks and went on down the road on its own account. The front forks struck the ground and Leslie and the motorcycle were scattered all over the landscape How the lad got out of it without broken bones is a miracle, but he did, and was able to get up and walk home, out he was so dazed that he went away and left the machine lying in the middle of the road. He was battered and bruised, and lost some portions of his cuticle, and the machine is in the repair shop. HARVEST FESTIVAL. For a number of years Nashville has held an annual “Harvest Festi­ val’’ , which has each year proven a big success and has been attended by mammoth crowds. There has never been a broken promise, but on the other hand there has always been more attractions than have been ad­ vertised, and thisyear will ue no ex­ ception. This year’s festival is to be held on Thursday and Friday, August 11 and 12, and the committees who are at work on the affair promise a big­ ger and better list of attractions than ever before. Nashville is a lively Lown and it will pay tou to femember the dates and attend the Harvest Fes­ tival this year. NUMBER 48 LOCAL NEWS.

It is no un­ common thing for men thus handicapped to win out and make a success of their undertakings. An important factor of their success in-almost every instance, you will find, was their bank account. Their bank deposits may not have, been large, but their connection with the bank, coupled with their honesty and character was the basis of the credit they were to establish and through credit, success was possible. The management of the Farmers 6. Marchants bank has - ever been'mindful of the fact that the account of the small busi­ ness man is of the same relative importance and entitled to the same sympathetic treatment at the hands of his hanker as the business of the larger corporation, and the officers of this in­ stitution have ever been on the lookout for the keen, promising beginner, and by the intelligent co-operation through the proper use of the facilities at their command, assisted him to success.'

BASE BALL. (Continued from page 8.) Hines had captured a foul from Frutigs bat, after a hard run to the high grass east of first base, from which he could not recover in time to hold the runners on. Moynes raised a high fly to center which “Whitie” cared for, and Brown brought the game to a close by capturing a foul over near the grand stand. Nashville’s first score came in the sixth, when two of them were lucked away, both being earned. Purchis lined one between short and third so fast that no one made a motion toward it.

That was some ball gam? at River­ side park Thursday afternoon between Nashville and the fast Good Lucks from Detroit. It was-probably.as fast a game as was ever played on the local diamond, everything moving along like a professional engagement, and the game only lasted a little over an hour and a half. The home team showed more spirit and ginger than in any previous game of the year and wenra dtp that showed them as good as the visitors at any stage. Brumm, who pitched for Nashville, showed that he is getting back into form again, going a good game all the way and pitching himself out of several tight places. At that his support was such that he could hardly lose, for the en­ emy was stopped several times from scoring by field work that was high class to say the least. But two errors were made by Nashville, one by Broiiraat third and one by Hines at first, ana both were on exceedingly difficult chances. The visitors started the scoring in the second inning. Rabideau got to first because he failed to get out of the way of one of Brumm's fast in­ shoots*. Jagnaw sacrificed him to second and he scored on Aldrich's only hit of the game. They picked up another in the eighth, Harms getting a base on balls, the only one of the game, going to third on Rabideau's single and scoring when Jagnaw laced out his only safe one of the game. They threatened again in the ninth, Wilscher, who had taken Brodel’s place in the box, being hit by a pitch­ ed bell, first up. Pankratz placed a single on which Wilscher made sec­ ond, and both moved up a base after (Continued on page six.) TEACHERS* EXAMINATION.

Nashville had a bad day of it at Vermontville on Wednesday of last week, losing a game in which all the luck was one-sided.

FURNISS ____________________________________ / TOWN TOPICS MET DEATH ALONE. W. W. Merritt of Charlotte Suc­ cumb* from Apoplexy While Flahlng at Walled Lake. A peculiarly sad death was that of W. W. Merritt of Charlotte, father of Mrs. R. J. Wade of this place, which occurred Saturday night. Mr. Merritt, who was a great fisherman, went with a partv of Charlotte friends on a trip to Walled lake, where he usually went for several weeks each summer. The party broke up and went home Friday evening, but Mr. Merritt was not ready to go and persuaded one of his companions, a gentleman by the name of John Smith, to remain with him over Sunday. Saturday evening Mr. Smith went out fishing, Mr. Merritt remaining at the camp. Later Smith noticed that the other boat was gone from the camp, so when he returned and. fouiid Mr. Merritt absent be thought nothing of it, but when dark­ ness hud fallen and the absentee had not returned he set out to hunt for him He rowed around on the lake and even went to other camps, but could get no trace of him and thought perhaps he had gone to Delton or 'had gone to some of the other camps*.to stay all night, but he could not sleep and when daylight appeared he started out a^ain to search for his missing companion. He had but started away from the shore when he saw Mr. Merritt’s boat, overturned, and close beside it in about four feet of water he found Mr. Mer­ ritt’s body, standing upright in the water. He secured assistance and thev brought the body to the camp, and word was al once sent to the fam­ ily and friends. The appearance of the body, and the fact that there was no water in the lungs, made it appar­ ent that Mr. Merritt had died of apo­ plexy or heart trouble before falling into'the water. The deceased was a man seventy-six years of age, very, portly and tlorid, and his physicians bad warned the family to be prepared al any time to learn of his sudden de­ mise, as he had a great deal of trouble with his heart and was also a good subject for apoplexy. The body was taken across country lo his home at Charlotte. Mr. Merrill was a man widely known and univer­ sally respected. He was a retired farmer of considerable means, owning a splendid farm near Charlotte, a home in town and other property. He was a me/nber of the Masonic fraternity, and will be sadly missed by the memhereof his lodge, with whom he was a warm favorite. He leaves a wife and two children, a. son, Jay Merritt, liv­ ing in Montana. Mr. and Mrs. Wade and Mrs. L. W. Feighner attended the funeral, which was held yesterday morning from the late residence of the deceased at Char­ lotte. ATTEMPTED SUICIDE. For some time past the family and friends of Fred wotring, livingtoorth of lown, have noticed that his actions were becoming peculiar, and they have feared that his mental faculties were becoming affected. Mr. Wotring him­ self was fully cognizant that this was the case, and some time ago. he volun­ tarily made a trip to Ann Arbor to consult specialists, who gave him to understand that he would soon be all right again and he returned home much encouraged. For the past two or three weeks, however, he has been working very bard, and seemed to be worrying more than usual, so that he was kept under the surveillance of the family. Friday morning, however, he eluded their vigilance for a few moments and got to the barn, after­ ward leaving the barn and making his way to the fields, where he was found by his brother Vane, his face and clothing covered ^ith mud, hav­ ing evidently tried to drown himself in a shallow well in one of the fields. Vane persuaded him to return to the house, where he was put to bed and Dr. F. F. Shilling hastily summoned. The physician soon discovered that the young man had taken aconite, but prompt action neutralized the effect of the drug. Friday evening Mr. Wotring was taken to Ann Arbor and placed under the care of physicians, and it is hoped that he will soon be restored to health. It is thought that hard work and worry have had much to do with the case, while it is known that the young man has brooded a great deal over the case of Homer Ehret, who recently took his own life during a fit of mental abberation. The two were fast friend* and the death of Mr. Ehret greatly affected Mr. Wotring. The family of the afflicted young man have the sincere sympathy of the community and the hope of all that the husband and father may be re­ stored to them in sound bodily and mental health. STARTED WRONG. It seems that Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Hurd, living in West Kalamo, were “well-paid" recently, with a large amount of compound interest attached, for all the trouble they have taken lo raise and bring up Herman Moore, a grandson of Mrs. Hurd, whose mother had died when he was in in­ fancy, and who had made his home with them until about a year ago, when he decided to go out and roam mother earth to his own satisfaction. Nothing more was heard of him until about two weeks ago, when he came back home sick, or pretending to be as was found out since, and was taken in by Mr. and Mrs. Hurd, who felt sorry for the youngster. Two or three days after this Mr. and Mrs. Hurd were obliged to come to Nash­ ville and do some trading, leaving young Moore at home alone, and it seems that the lad bad learned where they had W5 laid away, which they had intended to use in a few day*, and a* soon as they were gone he look the money and left. When Mr. and Mrs. Hurd returned home and found lhat Moore had gone, knowing his character, went at once to where they bad put the money and found that fl was gone. Mr. Hurd went to Char­ lotte at once and notified Sheriff Don­ ovan of what had happened, who im­ mediately got busy trying to get track of the youngster. In the meantime Mr. Hurd received a letter from his daughter living at Battle Creek, where Moore had been visiting a few days before, along with a letter, addressed in his name, which Mr. Hurd turned over to Sheriff Donovan, who opened the letter and found that it was writ­ ten bv a girl in Owosso, whom Moore was keeping company with, and im­ mediately went to that place and found that Moore had been there, but had gone on to Flint. From Flint he tracked him to Detroit, where with the help of another officer, he finally found young Moore Monday morning. Moore was going under an assumed name; and had but eleven cents of the stolen money left. The lad was brought back to Charlotte and lodge in jail. Mr. Hurd was then notified, going down there yesterday, when the lad owned up that he bad taken the money and was again put back in jail, where he will be kept until the 29tb.*wben without a doubt he will receive a “position” that he can rely on for some moons. Moore seems to be starting out quite early in life, being only a little over seventeen’ years of age, but it is hoped that what ever his sentence may be, it will teach him a lesson that be won’t forget. ASSYRIA FARMER’S CLUB. The Assyria Farmer's club was de­ lightfully entertained Saturday, July 23, at the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. Leander Reams. The members and friends of’ th? club began to arrive about ten o'clock and by noon there were 175 people gathered to­ gether to partake of a bountiful din­ er, after which the I1081 ttQd hostess served ice cream, which was highly appreciated.

Weed for the fans he presented them, after which the followinc program was given. Il being Mr. and Mrs. Ream's fortieth wedding anniversary Minnie Johnson recited, ‘‘The Wedding Ring,” which was quite appropriate for the occasion. Instrumental, Hazel Olmstead, was heartly encored. Select reading. “Practical Temperance," by Mrs. Kate Cox, was fine and brought out many good ideas. Song by Lyle and Lloyd Tasker was fine, they gave a second number. Discussion led by A. T. Shepard, “Which is the most profitable, sheep or hogs?" was ably discussed by Tuckerman, Wolf, Cargo and others. Recitation by Greta Knoll was enjoyed by all. Song by Mrs. Ernest Rice was heartly encored. Shesang“Star of the East”for second number. Miss A vice Briggs recited in her usual pleasant way ••Fritz and his Betsey fall out," which everyone enjoyed. Mrs. Carrie Lyons sang two songs and thus closed another very interesting meeting.

The country is calling for men—call­ ing with the voice of opportunity. There is room for all and to spare. There is a good living for all and a surplus besides. The decentralization of the cities, the movement to the country, means saner, cleaner living. There la less of strife and sordid self­ ishness out in the open country, where the grass is green and the twitter of song birds replaces the city’s din. Chil­ dren raised in the haytlelds make the men of brains and brawn for which the world Is calling. Out in the coun­ try it is possible for every man to have a home. The humblest laborer can be covered at night by his own cottage roof. The future of the na­ tion depends upon the preservation of a pure and healthy home life, and no­ where can this be so surely attained as in the country. A higher standard of living Is possi­ ble to the man in the country. He can build a bouse for the price of two or three years’ rent in the city. He can have fresh vegetables and fresh meat and fresh eggs on the farm that make the canned aud cold storage products of the city a disagreeable memory. Forty cent eggs mean doing without to the average city dweller. To the countryman with a small flock of poul­ try they mean prosperity. The man with bls own cow doesn’t complain of the high cost of milk and butter, for grass Is always cheap. In the country the everlasting strug­ gle to keep up appearances Is not felt so keenly as In the city. The useless extravagance that makes the bill for clothes the heaviest drain on the city man’s pocketbook is lacking. Men and women are taken more for what they to be. The man who lives beyond his income in an effort to appear more than he really Is is looked upon with disapproval. In the country the stand­ ard of living as ft applies to the real things—food, clothing, shelter, books and papers—can be maintained much higher than It can on an equal sized Income In the city. The temptations to reckless extravagance are much leas, and the margin for saving is con­ sequently much greater. From the standpoint of the average individual and for a great many who are above the average country life at present is much more desirable in almost every way than city Ufa. Some of the mote specific advantages will pe taken up in later articles. From the standpoint of the nation an In­ crease in the number of people who • I ; ; . ; . ■ ’ Thursday, August 11 ' J < ’ , , [ 1 ' : , | : ' ' 1 i NASHVILLE AUGUST 11-12 ’IO 1 In the very nature of the case there ; must always be a'class of unproduc- tlre workers. It is for the best good of the nation to limit this class as much as possible. The future prosperity of America, then, depends upon the decentraliza­ tion of the cities. Large cities are eco­ nomically wasteful, and they will have to go. The manufacturing cities of the future will be located with reference to food supply as well as with refer­ ence to the market for their products. In recent years the farmers of the hog raising districts of Iowa are com­ ing more and more to ship their boga to local packing bouses for slaughter, thus eliminating the long freight haul to Chicago. A plan is under way to establish a terminal elevator at Cedar Rapids, where the bulk of the Iowa grain can be cleaned and graded and shipped direct to the consumer. In this way the toll of Chicago, with its heavy terminal charges and its army of middlemen, will be almost entirely eliminated. One of the chief factors in the way of this enterprise and many others of like nature Is the discriminatory freight rates which the railroads give to the large cities. But this Is a mat­ ter that will be remedied in time. The era of the open country and the coun­ try town is dawning. The great city ______ __ it will conhas its,______ plane, a_____ place which rtluue to hnifi. but It cannot be the fiominating force in American life, nor can it rmiH> longer attract the flower of young manhood and young woman­ hood from the country dlairict*.

The attractions committee of the Harvest Festival have spent more money for free attractions this year than ever before, and have secured more and we believe better acts than for any former festival. Nashville never does things by halves, and when she advertises anything you can de­ pend upon her delivering tbe goods. The Harvest Festival of 1910 will be the best ever. There will be a dance at the Nash­ ville Club Auditorium on both even­ ings of the Harvest Festival. Tickets will be sold at ten cents per dance, or one dollar for the evening. There will be good music, and good order will be maintained. The room is cool and well ventilated and the floor is one of the finest In tbe stale.

The annual Northwest Kalamo pic­ nic was held in Hayden Nye's woods July 27. There were 136 present to enjoy the bountiful dinner which was served. A fine program consisting of instrumental and vocal music and several readings was enjoyed by all. The officers for the follow ing year are President—C. E. Baker; Vice Pres.— Mrs. Nellie Mix; Sec’y—Amy Hart­ well and Treasurer—Ruth Powers. A vote of thanks was given Mrs. Hayden Nve, the retiring president, who has taken such an interest in the picnic and done so much to keep it up from year to -year. The day was very pleasantly spent and all departed for their homes feeling it had been good for them to be there Last Saturday afternoon at about 3 o’clock a rather,lucky accident occurred at the M. C. freight yards, just east of the depot, when an' extra freight, east bound, was taking siding so that 107 could pass. The brake­ man being in a hurry threw the switch out before the back wheels of the caboose had left the main track, conse­ quently letting the front wheels go up on the siding while the back wheels fol­ lowed the main track, derailing the caboose and dragging it for several rods before thetraincould be stopped. For a short time it looked as though it would be impossible for 107 to pass, but both section gangs were called and in a short time they had the car back on the track, the onlj damage done being a few ties torn out of place and a badly bent track. Luckily no one was hurt. GRANGE. Maple Leaf Grange will give the following program Saturday, August 6, at 2 o’clock p. m. . Music.

Williams was born in Yates county, New York, February 16, 1846, and passed away July 27, 1910: aged 64 years, 5 months and 11 day. She was one of a family of eight children, five of whom survive her, three brothers and two sisters. At about the age of five years she moved with her parents to Mutherton, Ionia county, where she resided until she was united in marriage to M. D Smith of Bellevue in December, 1865, at which place they lived for a number of years, finally moving to Nashville, where with the exception of about six years she has lived the remainder of her life. To this union eight children were born, six living, four bovs and two girls. Mrs. Smith is well 'known in and around Nashville and has many friends who will mourn her demise. The funeral service* were held from the house Sunday morning at 10 o'clock and the remains interred in Lakeview cemetery. Rev. Walter S. Reed conducted the services. CARD OF THANKS.

Including his wife and child, mortally wounding a fourth and severely wounding a fifth. Bert S. Durham, a discharged driver of the local fire department, and believed to have been Insane, ended a man hunt by shooting himself through the head. Durham, in a desire for revenge, turned in a false alarm and when his former fellow workmen responded he fired a volley of shots at them, killing one and probably fatally injuring two others. Durham then ran to bis home and with a piece of steel wrapped in a handkerchief beat his wife and baby about their heads as they lay asleep, killing both. Durham, who had been hunted re­ lentlessly for hours, dodged bls pur­ suers. leaving them without a clue, boarded a car In the residence sec­ tion and rode quickly to the plaza in the center of the business district, where he put a bullet into his brain.

July 30.—Jurors at the In­ quest over the body of Ira Griffith’ Hawn, slain president of the Monon railroad, returned a verdict, finding that he was killed by a bullet fired "from hl« own revolver, held In his own hand," and that circumstance* In connection with tbe death made Che theory of suicide seem probable. The verdict was reached after a three hours’ session and after much lively debate In the jury room. Jurors Will Not Talk. Although none of the jurors would talk about their action, it was said that three held out for a verdict of suicide and the others for one of ac­ cidental shooting, and that the open verdict returned was a compromise, to break the deadlock. The text of the verdict follows: “We. tbe jurors, sworn upon oath to Inquire Ipto the death of Ira G. Raws at his residence in Winnetka on the morning of July 20, find that he came to his death from shock and hemor­ rhage caused by a wound made by a bullet fired from bls own revolver, held In his own hand, but whether it was discharged accidentally or with aulctdal Intent this jury Is unable to determine. The location of the wound and the type of revolver used render the accident theory less probable." Insurance Will Be Contested. That the insurance companies will contest the payment of policies is said to be assured, and it is declared that relatives of the slain railroad presi­ dent will bring court proceedings to collect the insurance.

When a couple who. have been mar­ ried eight years get energetic enough to go to a ball the usual method of procedure after the dance Is over is for the masculine member to yawn, mutter wearily that he has to get up at seven In the morning just the same and why the dickens doesn’t the taxi get them home faster—while his wife says her head aches and somebody else’s gown was far prettier than hers and oh, my. but she Is sleepy! Not the Criswells, however! When they raached their home shelter at two o’clock the other morning after dancing sir.'*? nine they surveyed one another meditatively. "I’m starved.” said Mm. Criswell. "So’m I.” agreed Criswell. With, one accord they made for the kitchen. When the light was switched on and disclosed a disguised an(! startled • mouse scurrying wildly for shelter Mrs. Criswell did not faint. Both she and her husband gurgled joyously. She grabbed a broom, Cris­ well seized the poker. Probably there Is some costume ap­ propriate for the pastime of killing mice, but whatever It may be it assured­ ly Is not trailing lavender satin and a *brand new dress si^lt. Still, the con­ sciousness that they were Inappropri­ ately clothed had no deterring effect on the Criswells. A boiler factory In full action was tbe only thing that possibly could havg jnade more noise than did they with broom, poker, over­ turned chairs and falling dishpans. Finally, the Intruder was dis­ patched and swept outdoors, the Cris­ wells repaired petyonal -damages and once more attempted a frugal lunch. They gnt it with some minor mishaps. Criswell knocked over a jar of pre­ serves and his wife In pulling out the silver draweF pulled It too far. spilling a peck or so of table Implements all over the’hardwood floor. Still, they laughed so much that their troubles move than paid for themselves. Just as Criswell pushed his chair back from the table a point of light allttered at him from the library. Diving toward It. he quickly emerged with a large toy enrtne In his hands. "Elmer.” said his wife. ”1 hate to appear Inquisitive—but would you mind telling me if you have quite lost ' your senses? Htfve you still at this hour of the night such an insatiable thirst for amusement that you have to fall back on Tommy’s toy engine? Isn’t a dinner party, a dance, a mouse­ killing bee—and a supper enough—" -That’s al! right Minnie.” said Criswell, soothingly. “You know you’re just as crazy over this fool thing as I am and It’s never worked right since Tommy got it Christmas— and I den’t know of a better time to fix It!" . The engine was an affair run by gas, so the Criswells with much labor got It attached to the gas fixture. Then on hands and knees they watched It plunge madly across the hardwood floor, chugging In a very business-like manner. It was while they were thus occupied that a noise interrupted them. Raising their heads from their absorbing occupation they saw enter what Mrs. Criswell after­ ward said waa the biggest policeman she had ever tn all her life beheld. Be­ hind was a policeman’ still bigger, who In turn was trailed by the biggest policeman of all. They regarded the two persons In evening garb with sus­ picion. "Whatchu doin’ here?" demanded tbe biggest policeman. Even the Criswells could see how foolish and Inadequate It sounded to explain that they were running a child’s toy engine at three o’clock la the morning. That was why they were meek when they had to explain the mouse-killing in the kitchen and the crash of silver In the dining-room and why they Insisted piteously In­ stead of wrathfully that they lived there and had a right to run toy en­ gines in the middle of the night If they wanted to. It waa not till Nora and Mary, the maids, who, roused from slumbe- by the weird noises downstairs,- had telephoned the police station that there were burglars In the house and their employers were out. peered In timorously, that the Criswells finally cleared themselves >of suspicion.

Adgale, Thornapple, NEEDFUL KNOWLEDGE. Nashville People Should Learn Detect the Approach of Kid­ ney Disease. The symptoms of kidney trouble are so unmistakable that they leave no ground Tor doubt. Sick kidneys ex­ crete a thick, cloudy, offensive urine, full of sediment, irregular of pas­ sage or attended by a sensation of scalding. The back aches constantly, headaches and dizzy spells may oc­ cur and the victim is often weighed down by a feeling of languor and fatigue. Neglect these warnings and there is danger of dropsy, Bright’s disease, or diabetes. Any one of these symptoms is warning enough to begin treating tbe kidneys at once. Delay often proves fat^l. You can use no better remedy than Doan’s Kidney Pills. Here’s Nash­ ville's proof: David Kunz, Middle street, Nash­ ville. Mich., says: “My back troubled me for some time, being extremely sore and painful.. It was hard to stoop or lift and my< kidneys were badly out of order. Reading about Doan’s Kidney Pills 1 procured a box at Furniss’ drug store and com­ menced their use. They promptly corrected the kidney difficulty and al­ so removed the pain and lameness in my back. I take pleasure in recom­ mending Doan's Kidney Pills to any­ one afflicted with kidney complaint.” For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co..

Von W. Fumiss ________________________________ / TOWN TOPICS LOOKS LIKE A WINNER. Hon. Patrick H. Kelley made a triumphant tour of Barry county Monday, starting in at Woodland and making stops at Nashville, Lacey, Delton, Orangeville, Prairie­ ville, Gun Lake, Middleville, Free­ port and Hastings, holding an eve­ ning meeting at the letter place, which was interrupted by rain. The party arrived here at about ten o’clock, making a stop of about an hour. Mr. Kelle'y spoke from an automobile op­ posite the postoftlce, and a large audi­ ence listened with marked attention to a clean and clear statement of the is­ sues of the campaign. His remarks were entirely, free from detrimental reference to either of the other candi­ dates, but his talk was logical and straight to the point, and that he made manv votes for himself was plainly evident. He was accompanied from here for the rest of his trip by about a dozen automobiles Oiled with his friends from all about the county. He was met at all of his appointments by interested crowds^ ana all were apparently well pleased with his Fiiain, matter-of-fact way of presentng the important matters of the cam­ paign. There' is no doubt that bis trip through Barry county will re­ sult in adding greatly to hfs vote in the county at the September primar­ ies, in spite of the fact that some of the county leaders of public opinion at Hastings have suddenly become .convinced that Osborn is the man of the hour Mr. Osborn is a splendid gentleman and there is nothing that can be said against him, but there is absolutely no question that Patrick H. Kelley is by all means the best qualified man for governor of Miehigan of any man who is in the race at the present time. He has an excellent record, one of which any man might well be proud, and he is better ac­ quainted with the condition of state affairs and the needs of the common­ wealth than either of his rivals. Furthermore, he is a man with the courage of his convictions, his integ­ rity is unquestioned, and any man who knows "Pat” Kelley, or who has sized up that clear blue eye and that sauare jaw, realizes that he is a man who will stand up for what he be­ lieves to be right, no matter what pressure may be brought to bear up­ on him. He is the kind of a man Michigan needs for governor, and he is the man who is going to be nominat­ ed and elected. SERIOUS ACCIDENT. Mr. and Mrs. Hayden Nye, living on the county line just southeast of the village, met with a serious acci­ dent Sunday afternoon at about five o'clock while driving home from Kalamo, where they had been spending the day with Mr. Nye’s sister, Mrs. Bert Cottrell. As they were coming down the Dodson hill they were met by Dr.'McEachran with his auto, who had iusl turned the corner from the north and was coming west: the horse they were driving became unmanage­ able and jumped to the side of the road, throwing both Mr and Mrs. Nye out of the carriage, Mr. Nye landing on his head and > shoulders, badly bruising the back of his head and back and spraining his right leg. Mrs. Nye bruised her forehead and face and fractured her right arm just above the wrist: she also received slight internal injuries. The doctor immediately stopped his machine and took Mr. and Mrs. Nye back to Mr. Cottrell’s house, where he set ’the fractured arm and attended to the other injuries. Mr. and Mrs. Nye were both hurl so badly that they we’re obliged to remain at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Cottrell. At this issue Mr. Nye is able to be up and around the house and will be welk, enough to go home in a few days and attend to his farm work, but Mrs. Nye is in a crit­ ical condition, being unable to even sit up in bed without fainting away. The horse, after Mr. and Mrs. Nye were thrown out, brook loose from the carriage and was caught later by one of Mr. Cottrell’s neighbors. The har­ ness and carriage received their share of the damage. Miss Alice McKinnls, who has, been visiting friends at De­ troit, returned home Monday and is helping care for her sister, Mrs. Nye OSBORN VISITS NASHVILLE. Chase S. Osborn, upper peninsula candidate for gubernatorial honors, spoke to a goodly crowd on Main street Thursday evening of last week, and that he made a good Impression goes without saying, for he is a nat­ ural born orator and his flights of rhetoric won hearty applause. The party came here from Woodland, there being five automobiles in the bunch. Troxel's trombone quartette furnished the music. Hon. H. G. Baker of Cheboygan was the first speaker, and devoted most of his time to an abuse of the present adminis­ tration, which was probably meant to include Kelley. His speech was more of a tirade, like an old woman scold­ ing, than anything else. Mr. Osborn, however, made aj'ood, clean talk and created a good impression. MICHIGAN’S FINANCES. Calamity bowlers over the condition of the state’s treasury a year ago and who renewed the "howl’'from time to time since the stale passed through a stringent period, will have to shift their cry to some other source. While the state was passing through the stringent period last year, and no one suffered very badly, not even state institutions, the wallers were seeing even worse conditions fur this year and have been talking it ever since. Indications are at the present time, unless unforsoen ex jx* uses arise, that the state will not have to borrow a dollar this year and even if money has to be borrowed it will be a very small amount. At the present time there is considerable over 82,000,000 in the state treasury and of this sum over •1,000,000 Is in the general fund. Those in close.touch with the con­ dition of the state’s strong box are very much pleased with the outlook at the present time and feel confident that the state will pass the period with flying colors. Not a dollar does the state owe, having paid what was borrowed last year. ' These statements will not lie satis­ factory to those candidates who are running around trying to discredit their state for campaign purposes, but they have the merit of being true. LOCAL NEWS.

Bring it here by the side of the bed. and I’ll shot." , "Very well." replied Hardy, quietly; tell you all about IL I, an American, "but 'f we shoot again, I shall shoot Frederick Courtland Hardy of Boston, ■L!!>, I beg that you will Inform bi­ Mass., have fought a duel. and.'I sus­ nf n>y n."n"« ’•tfhel pect, about a woman!" ____ \ COMPANY .AAV “I shall be deeply Indebted to you. And now. If you will take no offense. I shall. ask you to excuse me, as I must get a good night’s rest. There is no medicine like sleep, and plenty of It, to make the hand steady and the eye clear.” The young Russian glanced at the ether admiringly. “You have the nerve of a Russian!" “Or of an American," replied Hardy, smiling. "You will find me ready at f:3G, and don’t fall to be on time. We must not be one second late at this rendezvous.’’ Left to himself, Hardy sat for a long time with bls head in his hands, thinking. Of his ability to kill Romanoff at the distance agreed on—30 paces—he had not the slightest doubt He was also aware that he stood a chance himself of being wounded, or of losing his life. Romanoff enjoyed the reputatlon of being a fair shot, though how much this meant in Russia, Hardy had no means of Judging. Probably not much, according to American standards; but even a poor shot will sometimes hit the mark. Was the princess in love with her cousin? The more Hardy debated this possibility In his mind, the more it took on the shape and tangibleness of probability. That she had com­ manded the prince to fight was no proof against the supposition. She came of fighting blood, and the man she loved must be no coward. More­ over, Hardy had taken advantage of her own princely word to himself, and had claimed fulfilllment of the promise that she had made to him. Romanoff w^s handsome as a god, brave, masterful, Impetuous, of high birth; the sort of man, It seemed to Hardy, to appeal to a woman like the princess. “And I," he laughed, bitterly, “am a merchant here In her autocratic and aristocratic Russia—a merchant who owes her sufferance of me to the tact that 1 can shoot straight!" He said nothing that night to Wang of the impending duel, but the boy seemed aware that some danger threatened his master, or that the lat­ ter was gravely troubled about some­ thing. Although told several times, kindly, to go to bed, he returned as often, and hovered about Hardy. In­ deed, Wang responded to Hardy's moods with that delicacy of under­ standing sometimes seen In a dog for Its master, or a woman for the man she loves. "Well, Wang," said Hardy at last, "you. may sit up all night if you choose, but I, for one, am going to get EOme sleep. Good night!"—and he retired to his own room. He began to undress slowly and absentmindedly, standing for long min­ utes motionless In the middle of the floor, or dropping into a chair, in deep thought, as though he were confronted by some weighty problem that he could not solve. He turned off the light at last and crept into bed. but he was destined to be again disturbed by Wang, who Upped timidly at the door. "That boy Is becoming a nuisance!" he muttered; “there Is such a thing as too much devotion. Well, Wang!" he shouted, sharply. “If you please," called Wang, "here Is a note for you." Hardy arose, went to the door and took a letter from the boy's hand. “Walt," he commanded, "till I see If there is an answer." He tore open the envelope and read: My Friend: I have just learned that the duel tn to take place in the morninc. and that pistols are the weapons chosen. Tou know that I rave my consent to this de­ plorable affair because you asked me In terms that left me no choice. I am going bow to ber somethlnr of you; it la that you spare my headstrong and violent cousin's life. He wronged you outrage­ ously, I know, and tn the name of the Romanoff family. I humbly beg your par­ don for that wrong, but should you kill him—and your wonderful skill places his life entirely in your hands—I should feel that his blood Is on my head. Will you not grant a distracted woman’s prayer and spare hla life? Wound him. If you will, but, oh, do not kill him! By granting this request, you will place under still deeper obligations one who already owes you more than she can ever hope to re­ pay. EUZABETHA ROMANOVNA. As he read. Hardy turned pale to the lips. He tore the note in small bits and dropped them into a waste paper basket. "Is there any answer, dear master?" called the voice of Wang through tha 4oor. "No," replied Hardy, “there is no answer. CHAPTER XXXVI. The Duel. Frederick Courtland Hardy slept poorly that night The typical hero of romance, when about to fight a duel at break of day goes to bed and sleeps more soundly than ever before in his life. Thia deep slumber proves his iron nerve more incontestably then any amount of swash-buckling brava­ do or any number oi great oaths could do. But we are not dealing with a typical hero of romance. Hardy, as ha tossed about for hours bb th* bed. felt genuine disgust at : himself that he was unable to go to sleep. He experienced no fear, and he had a feeling that it was Irregular for i a gentleman to lie awake under such circumstances. | xoout midnight it occurred to him that it might be a good thing to make his will. Such, a document already existed, but he now arose and, putting on dressing-gown and slippers, went out into the office. Lighting the gas. he wrote as" follows: Moscow, January 7. 1304.

Tossing the «a- relope on a table in his sleeping room, he went back to bed, and at last suc­ ceeded in getting to sleep. He was awakened by Gortchakov pounding upon his door and shouting: "Get up. my friend, get up! We shall be late for the rendezvous!" Hardy dressed hurriedly and went out to his second, who was waiting in the office. I The lieutenant’s sledge and beauti­ ful team of thoroughbreds was wait­ ing at the curb. । “Jump in, pray," he said, "and let's be off. And we mustn't talk of any­ thing's happening. There Is nothing going to happen except that you will shoot a great rascal and bully through the heart, and we shall come back to a hearty breakfast, having done a good morning’s work with very little waste of time.’’ ; Gortchakov bad now fixed on Ro­ manoff's heart as the most pleasing receptacle for Hardy's bullet The coachman cracked his long whip and the high-strung, nervous steeds gave a great bound and went scurrying through the early streets of the Muscovite capital. In half an hour they had reached their destina­ tion. a thick wood on the banks of the Moskva. Hardy's other second was already on the spot with a surgeon, a fat little man, wrapped thick In furs, who walked briskly to and fro In the snow, carrying a case of Instruments. "You are in good time, gentlemen," cried Gortchakov, consulting his watch, “there are still ten minutes to spare.” ' "I think I hear sleigh bells now," said the surgeon. “1 hope it is, Ro­ manoff, so that I can get back to my warm bed. What the dexll people want to oome out in such weather as this, Is more than I can understand. Let them shoot each other and be damned, if they want to, but not at this hour and in such weather." | "We shall try to be expeditious," ' said Hardy, cheerfully, "and, In the meantime, I beg pardon for my share I in the inconvenience to which we are | putting you. You’re right about the i sleigh bells. Here are our friends I now." I Through a vista between the leafless trees a sledge could be seen approachi Ing, drawn by three horses, running like mad. The driver rose to his feet and settled back on the seat, bringing them to a rearing, pawing, sudden halt. The details were soon arranged and the ground measured off. Hardy did not pay «ny attention to these pre­ liminaries, but walked briskly back1 ward and forward to keep his feet warm, glancing occasionally at Ro­ manoff. who stood leaning against a tree, his hands in his ulster pockets, an insolent, careless smile on his handsome face. He certainly was a splendid specimen of manhood, thought the American, and if he felt : the least tremor of fear, he knew how to disguise IL Did It seem at all : unlikely that a high-bred, aristocratic | woman, the daughter of a hundred warriors, should have fallen In love with a man like that? “It is time now, my friend." said Gortchakov, coming up to Hardy. “I must trouble you to remove your coat. But you will not catch cold, for it will only take *you a minute. Upon my word. I admire your nerve. You ought on You." ersed over half the distance when Hardy sal<V "I am faint, HeutenanL Let me lean on you for a moment.” “My God. you are wounded!" cried Gortchakov, putting his arm about the American's waist; and. Indeed, a dark stain, rapidly spreading, dyed bls waistcoat and sblrtfronL "I—I am slightly wounded," gasped Hardy, and fainted away. "What's the matter there with our man?” asked Romanoff. In a voice that made no attempt to conceal a sneer. "He seems to be slightly weary. I thought I must have hit him. How is It, surgeon? Have 1 done bls business for him?" "He is seriously wounded, I fear," replied the surgeon. "Get his coat about him. Here, lift him Into the sledge. Let me get In with you. Now, drive like mad; drive, I say!" CHAPTER XXXVII. "A—a woman?" stammered Wan^, turning suddenly pale. "As nearly as I can find ouL I was calling on the Princess Romanovna, paying her my respects, when in came her cousin, the Prince Romanoff, and insulted me so grossly that I deemed it my duty to demand satisfaction of him. I strongly suspect that bls highness* antipathy to me Is rooted chiefly In the fact that I, on one oc­ casion, saved the life of bls fair cousin. He struck me in the face, Wang." As the American said these words his own countenance flushed with shame. "He struck you!” cried the Korean. “1 could spit on bis corpse. I could spurn it with my foot!" "1 have no doubt you could, thereby displaying your devotion to my un­ worthy self. Your plan is imprac­ ticable, however, for the simple rea­ son that there is no corpse. Romanoff is alive and well at the present mo­ ment and Is no doubt gloating over my discomfiture.” "He Is not even wounded?" asked the boy. “Not even wounded." "But why did you not kill him when you had the opportunity? It surely would not have been difficult to hit that great hulk of flesh. Is it then safe to strike an American gentleman in the face?" "N—ot always. My reasons’for not killing him aru too complicated for a boy to understand.- They Involve a lady's sanction of a duel, and then her subsequent nullifying of that sanction. They Involve, in general, a lady's re­ quest, which can hardly bo overlooked when she is. in reality, the cause of the hatred which made the meeting necessary. Do you follow me, Wang?” “I—I think I do.” replied the boy, wearily. “You spared him because the princess asked you to. You have been magnanimous, whatever the cost to yourself, and given the princess her admirer, for whom, in his moment of extreme peril, sbe found that she cared more than sbe bad supposed. And now you are done with the whole Romanoff family!” Hardy forgot his pain for the mo­ ment and started at the boy in open­ mouthed wonderment. "If you were not a boy," he said at last, sinking back on the pillow. "I should think you were a woman. Your intuition in such matters Is positively marvelous. And now I mustn't talk too much, for It makes this shoulder aehe like a bad tooth. I must get well, and we must go back to Stryeten«k and the store. But there Is one little thing that I want you to do for me. Go to the place where the duel was fought this morning. I shall de­ scribe the location exactly to you. Ro­ manoff stood near a large oak tree, whose trunk divides about six feet from the ground into two trunks equal In size. Look about there and see If you can find in the snow a gold cuff­ button. It Is there, and, shining against the white, should be easily found. Bring It to me as quickly as possible." Wang left without another word. Not long after the boy's departure the nurse brought in a bouquet of priceless orchids, which she arranged in a vase and set on a table near his bed. "An isvoschlk brought them,” she explained to Hardy. “Here Is the note that came with them." She handed him a tiny billet-doux and raised one of the shades. Holding the note In his teeth, he opened the The Gold Cuff Button. By the surgeon's orders, Gortchakov drove directly to a hospital, where Hardy was laid upon a bed and his wound examined and dressed. The prince's bullet bad passed through the flesh beneath the shoulder, ma­ king a clean perforation—a painful but not a dangerous wound. Hardy revived In the sledge, and to Gortchakov's demand why he had shot so badly, made no reply other than: "The best-intentloned bullets some­ times go astray. I turn him over to you, lieutenant, I have not deprived you of the pleasure of killing him yourself." His coat and shirt were cut away from his chest at the hospital, and a young grub of an Intern assisted the surgeon In washing the wound and passing a silk handkerchief through it—an operation that caused the pa­ tient to bite his nether lip till it bled, but did not draw a groan from him. "You will be all right in about a month." said the surgeon, on taking his leave, "but I beg you. If you think of fighting again, either to postpone your little affair till the spring breezes begin to blow, or don't call on me to assist you. 1 shall have chil­ blains as a result of your'foolishness, that may cause me more suffering than your nasty little puncture.” Gortchakov departed in a surly humor, evidently disgruntled because his principal bad failed to remove the to have been a Russian.

Bowen’s car, in which Mr. Kelley was riding at tho time, and which was being driven by Mr. Bowen’s son, escaped from the control of the driver as he was as­ cending a long hill, and the big car went back down the hill at a lively clip. Steering a car backward isn’t the easiest thing in the world, and tbe car left the road and was just about overturning down a high bank when the rear end struck a big tree, which crushed in the tonneau of the car like an egg-shell. Fortunately no one was hurt, and no damage was done to the machinery of the car, which was able to go on and finish the trio. Two commercia’ travelers, Howard and McCann, who make this territory regularly, were coming here on the morning train from the east Friday morning, planning on picking up their usual good bunch of orders. They sat together on the train from Charlotte and got to arguing over political matters, becoming so en­ grossed that they sat in the car while the train was taking water, remained involved in the discussion while the train was making the run to Morgan and taking the siding there for 102 to pass, and only realized where they were when 102 passed them on its way to Nashville. Then they quit talking politics and went to talking about something else, and their remarks were even more emphatic man before. They made their way back from Hast­ ings on the noon train, and by eve­ ning had enough orders booked so that they had recovered their usual good nature. “THE VULTURE.“ Manager Richardson of,our local play house considers himself lucky in securing William F.

Sheriff Eppett was in the village Monday afternoon and served a summons on Mrs. F. M. Weber and promised that when the editor of the Tribune returned from Detroit he would be presented with the same kind of a document. The summons was issued at the instance of Thomas G. Graham of Peck, and return day is set for August 25. Mr. Graham wants two thousand dollars: just think of it, two thousands dollars. And be wants It from a country publisher! There was nothing in the paper to infer why Mr. Graham wants two thousands dollars, but we presume that after tbe ‘‘triumphant tour'* of Mr. McMorran through the country he sees the political .pap on which he has existed for a few years, slipping away from him and he wants to “hedge.” zXnd then the document didn’t say just what he intended to do with the two thousand dollars, but we suppose that will all come out in the declaration which may be filed in the case. In tbe mean time we are open to receive con­ dolences from our brother editors and all those who feel inclined to feel sorry for us.—Carsonville Tribune. Well Brother Weber, you know you have our sympathy as we have had several like summons in our day, but such are the trials of the newspaper man and you have to become accus­ tomed to them.

One afternoon Mr. Sturgis asked Etbel to go over to the ••forty" and select a site for their cabin. He declined to accompany her, a* he had midst of bread making, so Ethel sad­ dled a horse and rode toward the “forty.” Sudd* nly a disagreeable thought struck her. “If Mrs. Lake has sent Austin over here to see me I'll never forgive her.” She rode slowly, with her eyes glued to the horse's mane, wondering If she had been wise to reject Austin’s love and protection. She didn’t raise her eyes until she turned in at tbe “forty." Then she stared In amazement Here stood a trim, little house with a neat, broad porch and blinds. “This is what Mrs. Lake and father have been so mysterious over," she thought with sudden enlightenment “But how could It have been built in so short a time?" She dismounted and went up the steps. A, card lay on the steps and some advertising matter. "Oh, I see! One of those portable bouses. I wonred If the door Is open?" It was, and with Its opening came another surprise. Here were all ber household goods arranged as they bad been In the old house. She passed through the living room, dining room, "kitchen and then into ber father's bed­ room. She opened tile last door. All her personal things were here, and many more beautiful, new furnishings. What did It mean? Then she grew faint. She knew. Austin! Had he dared? She could not take them unShe heard a knock at the door and she felt that It was the decision of her life awaiting her. Could .she? A mo­ ment elapded before she summoned courage to open the door. On tbe threshold stood a tall, litbeilmbed man. "Will!" she.said faintly. He clasped her to him. “It took you two years to forgive," she murmured reproachfully. "Dearest, I got your note only ten days ago. It was in the secret drawer to your desk. You forgot to mall IL” "How could I! Buj how did you come by It?" "I am the new auctioneer. I didn’t know you lived In these parts till Mrs. Lake took me to tag your things. She told me bow you would miss your desk, and I made up my mind to bid it In. Casually I opened a secret drawer and found the letter. I had all the things bld In. ■ Tho next day your father came to see me and we fixed up this surprise." “Then these things are yours?” "No; ours. We are going' to live here with your father." "Will, did Mrs. Lake know, too?" "Yes; she was our right hand man." "I have misjudged her. I never dreamed she could keep a secret" The Worst Laundrymen. The distinction of being the worst class of washerwomen all the world over belongs, it Is said, to washermen! —the "dhobles" of India. The methods of the dhobie are far from gentle. He collects the clothes, and dumps them Into a trough of soap and water and vigorously Jumps up and down on them, changing the water now and then. Next, he goes to the nearest washing pool, and there he really gets to work. He seizes a garment, well soaked, whirls It around his head, and bangs It on a hard, flat stone. Off files a button. Another soak, another whirl and a bang follow, and another button gone. When sufficient damage Is done’ the garment 1b clean and ready to be repaired. All of which sounds precisely like the operations we believe our best things have gone through when we get them back from "the wash."

But I feel sorry for him, 1 say, for he was a courteous gentleman, and liberal with his tips." It was now about ten o'clock in the morning, and Wang went straight to the palace of the Princess Romanovna. The pompous butler Informed him that It would be impossible to see her highness, but vouchsafed to take a note to the princess, which Wang wrote in French, much to the butler's disgust. The door was shut in Wang's face, but he was not left standing in the cold for more than 20 minutes. At the end of that time the butler threw wide the door and announced: “Well, her highness consents to see you, after all. Remember your man­ I ners, young man, and If you have any begging scheme, don't Impose on her too much. She has a very soft heart" Wang disappeared within the pal­ ace.

"It Isn't as if I were too stout. I have a large frame, of course, but not an ounce too much flesh, my husband says. He always did admire fine-looklug women. I wouldn't lose a pound for the world!" “Well, 1 would.” Interrupted the red­ haired woman. “Of all atrocious things In this world. It is fat!" She eyed the large woman and continued: "When I found that I was five pounds above normal I came down at once to take a course of baths. I’ve steamed and roasted and been pounded until I’ve lost three pounds. Hips are sim­ ply disgusting to me. Of course, this season’s styles say smaller waists and slightly larger hip effect. But I'll take mine In effect, thank you!" “Well, I confess I’m fat—Just plhln fat," commented a second stout wom­ an. "I’ve dieted and walked and taken active and passive exercise un­ til I'm too tired to move. I’ve gone without dessert I’ve had massage until my hips were black and blue. Now I'm rolling." "Rolling?" asked the pretty little woman. "What's that?" “Haven’t you tried rolling chorused the others. "Why. you can reduce a pound in four days if you roll for 15 minutes night and morning, and it’s the surest—•’’ “But I’m not trying to reduce." “Not trying to reduce! Then why are you here?" demanded the large woman, sternly. "I’ve always bfeen thin,” meekly re­ sponded the little woman, “but of late I've had rheumatism, so my physician advised Turkish baths for me." “Oh!" chorused the envious ones. "It must be hard not to be able to wear evening dress," said the first large woman, at last "Of course, if one doesn’t go about socially It doesn’t much matter, I suppose." The red-haired woman winked ,*£ the dazed little lady. “My busband would object seriously if I should propose wearing anything else than decollete every evening for dinner,” the large woman continued. "We entertain extensively." "I’ll wager she does her own house­ work." whispered the red-haired wom­ an to her thin neighbor. "Look at her finger nails!" "Well,” sighed the second fat wom­ an, "I can’t even look well in a low­ necked gown; my flesh seems to hang in waves, so that 1 cover it up all that I can.

My daughter goes to a class and she has grown so grace­ ful—of course, she always was grace­ ful, I didn’t mean that—and. besides, she lost a pound the first week. So I entered at once and paid for the whole course in advance. But the very first exercises were so strenuous for me that I had to go home in a taxicab and stay in bed for two whole days. So I'm bound to reduce enough to go back Into the class, for the thought of that 130 ticket that I bought and can't use is giving me Insomnia!" The red-haired woman gave her neighbor a wicked look. “Imagine our friend skipping lightly across the pol­ ished floor to dreamy music!" she said. The first fat woman was slowly arising from her couch. The red­ haired woman sprang up and reached the door first. "Good-by," she sang back, mock­ ingly. "The cat!" snorted the first fat woman. "She knew that I was trying to get Mary first and now It .will be hours before she Is through with her rubbing. Mary Is the best masseuse tn the place and that person always gives her a double tip. I’m positive, to get an extra long treatment. And I’m In a great hurry. A very exclusive luncheon at one o’clock and I will have to take some one else!" The little woman crept Into her bed for a short rest and listened to the telephone orders for luncheon for the rest. If the first fat woman was In such a hurry for a luncheon en­ gagement, why was she ordering a steak smothered in onions, with a double order of fried potatoes? If the second fat woman wanted to reduce, why did she order a meal of sweets and chocolate? If the red-haired wom­ an didn't care particularly to lose more than two pounds, xhy was she so careful to select from a reducing diet? The little woman smiled to her­ self—there were some compensations in being slender. Bbe stopped at the scales <n going out to find the second fat woman care­ fully consulting it.

Myra Kelley tells a characteristic story of Mr. and Mrs. Spltxky of the East side, who rushed to school and frantically rescued their son, a lad of seven, upon whom an operation for adenoids was about to be performed. "It was good wo got there in time," said the father; but the already Amer­ icanized son remarked: "What did youse butt in for?" PATRICK H. KELLEY. Candidate for Nomination for Gov* Lieutenant Governor Patrick H. Kel'ey, candidate for the republican nomination for governor, is deliver­ ing one of the most convincing ad­ dresses in his campaign that it has been the pleasure of the thinking vot­ ers of Michigan to listen to in some time. Clear of all unkindly references to his opponents, devoted strictly to the discussion of state questions, Mr. Kelley’s remarks have met with the general approbation of republi­ cans all over the state. In part he says: “We have great interests in this estate. We have 39,000 factories, giving employment to 3p0,000 men and their daily wage amounts to $600,000 per day. ’These are great interests of the state and we are glad of that. We have not as yet let the power get into the hands of any one particular interest of tills stale or any one particular faction, and it is essential that we do not. We have always given the upper peninsula, dominated by the mines, full share of the state government and the present time is no exception to the rule. They have a justice to the Supreme Court; they have the z\uditor General of the state, and he has in his office one third of the patronage of the state government at his disposal: they have the Super­ intendent of Public Instruction, re­ ceiving a salary of $4,000.00 per year, one of die highest paid offices in the state.

It mother used the words about the Turnleys. You see. we're all Turnleys of Vir­ ginia, and though we’ve lived in New York twice as long as I've been born, we arnt allowed to forget IL There’s only one family comes up to the Turnley standard, and that's the Waynes. Of course, like all old families, we're all awfully poor, and I guess that’s how sister got engaged to Mr. Tripp. Everbody always thought that shs was going to marry Freddy Wayne, because they had been engaged ever since they had been born. Naturally, when Mr. Tripp proposed to sister, and she accepted him, every­ body was surprised. • That was just after father lost all his money in the bank wreckings, and Mr. Tripp had millions, and I waa In the library and heard mother speaking to slater about tbe honor of the fam­ ily. and duty to her parents, and pres­ ently fill came out crying and wrote a letter to Mr. Tripp. . It was Just three nights before the marriage when sivter and I were sit­ ting alone in tbe library, talking over things. All at once there was a snort­ ing outside hnd a big auto came chug­ chugging up td the window, and it opened from the outside and Freddy Wayne epme In. He must have scared sister, com­ ing In that way so late. He seemed to be asking her to come for a ride, and he got hold of her hand and wouldn't let go. and I'll swear I smelled whiskey on him, though sls'ter said afterward It must have been the gasoline got Into his clothes. They argued and argued In a low tone, and presentlySslster burst out crying and told Fredy be must never see her again, and then they kissed each other good-by, and Just at that moment the door opened and Mr. Tripp came In with mother. , Mr. Tripp stood'watching them as if petrified Into stone, only his breath came quick and short, like the automo­ bile puffing outside, and mother put up her glasses and- stared at Freddy In tbe real Turnley way. Then Mr. Tripp bowed. "Miss Turnley," he said, quite digni­ fied like, "I have Just informed your parents that I have lost all my money in the bank wreckings, and I am now a poor man. and I have the honor to release you from your engagement" Then sister began to tremble, and she kept twisting her ring round and round upon her finger, and just then Freddy Wayne butted in and said, sneering like: "My dear Mr. Tripp. I have already had the pleasure of conveying that In­ formation to Miss Turnley." ‘ "In that case." said the miserable Tripp, "permit me to wish you all k. very good evening." “My dear man, please don’t wish us any thing so ridiculous," said mother, raising her eyebrows and looking at him in the real Turnley way. Mr. Tripp didn't seem able to under­ stand. and stood there trying to tell her how he’d lost everything he had In the world, and how he'd always known he wasn't up to the Turnley standard, and how glad be was to re­ lease sister from her engagement Sister looked at him in astonish­ ment, and she advanced a few steps and said: "Mr. Wayne, when gentlemen call on me In the evening. I like them to come through the front door. When you come that way, I shall always be glad to welcome you, ard so will my husband." Mr. Tripp didn't know what to make of that, and he stood'fingering his hat, so sister went up to him and put her arms 'round his neck and looked at him In the way that makes a fellow feel cheap when he's the third party. I guess that's the way Freddy Wayne felt, anyhow, for he Just walked out without saying a word. Then mother turned to Mr. Tripp and said, patting his arm: “Now let's all go Into supper." Gee! sometimes I do feel glad that I'm a Turnley, after all. No Beggars In Copenhagen. Copenhagen la a city of 500,000 in­ habitants.

There are no unemployed hanging about the street corners, no unkempt women standing idly at tha doors, no ragged and dirty children playing in the gutter.

The man of influence in Congress and especially is this true in the Sen­ ate, is tbe man of long experience and wide acquaintance. The man who knows the ropes, the traditions, and how to do things. It is his long ser­ vice in both houses, bis thorough familiarity with every detail of law­ making methods and departmental work, and his long established and friendly relations with men of affairs that make Senator Burrows' livest, best and biggest asset in the .halls of national legislation. Why should not Michigan have the benefit of his skill and knowledge, his experience and ripe judg ment, his wide acquaintance and extensive influence as long as he is able to serve the state? Michigan has many and important interests to be safeguarded. ' It has mines and forests connected by rail and water; agriculture, labor and mercantile interests. The veteran statesman can serve these Interests more efficiently and effectively than any new man can hope to do. Then why make any change? Why not retain the faithful and capable servant, and let the young men who aspire to his seat ELECTRICAL SUPPLIES I desire to state to the people of the village of Nashville that I have a line of electrical sup­ plies on hand, and can and WltL do wiring ac­ cording to underwriters rules.

THIRTY SEVEN YEARS. With the present issue, The News starts upon its thirty-eighth year of weekly visits to the people of Nash­ ville and vicinity. Fifteen years it was under the management of Orno Strong, who established the paper. On October 1, 1888, the office was pur­ chased by the present proprietor, who has continued Its editor and manager for the past twenty-two years, and who Hopes to continue for as many years more as he is able to be in the harness. Nashville has seen many changes during that -ihirty-se^en years, and The News has endeavored in all things to keep pace with the growth and improvemecit of the town. There is not In any town the size of Nashville in Michigan a better-equipped newspaper and job printing office than Nashville has, nor one which turns out a better pajier or a better class of printing. We are not very strong on blowing our own horn, but these are facts which are fully substantiated and are well known. We aim to keep our es­ tablishment in the front rank of the progressive papers of the state, and to keep fully-abreast of the needs and the requirments of the hustling town which we represent. Our subscribers are of the class which, come to us of their own accorti, because they like the paper and want it to read every week, and they stay by, us year by year, many of them having been read­ ers of the paper ever since it was started. ' We appreciate this kind of patronage, and we try to show our appreciation by giving them a bright, snappy local paper, containing all of the news of the town and the country. Our advertisers, also, are loyal to tiie paper and give ir practically all their advertising and commercial printing, for which we heartily thank them. Then- isn't any too much money, at the best, in conducting a country newspaper, but there is a great deal of personal satisfaction in conducting one which is as well thought of and as highly appreciated as is The News. We hope in the years to come to conJ tinue to merit your support and your commendation.' We make an important change in the make-up of the paper this week, rendered necessary by the largo amount of local advertising and local news, the change being that hence­ forth we will use the second page of the paper for local news, in addition to the pages which have been formerly devoted to this department. County news and country correspondence will also be found on page six. We shall continue giving all of the important general news of the country each week, together with a high-grade serial story .and such special articles as we shall consider of sufficient interest to war- �.................. b.u.dnUta.U. uoc.npli»h.

After a full dis­ cussion of the New York state situa­ tion I drafted in your presence the following telegram and sent it to Mr. Sherman: Would Avoid All Controversy. " ‘Honorable James S. Sherman. Vice­ President, Utica, N. Y. "‘Please say to Ward and Wood­ ruff that I have had a long conference with Grlscom. He confirms my judg­ ment already expressed to you that the whole situation in New York may be saved without humiliation to any­ one and with victory for the party by a full conference with Mr. Roosevelt and reasonable concessions with ref­ erence to platforms and candidates. “ The. thing of all others that ought to be avoided is a controversy in the convention. I am told by Mr. Gris­ com that such a conference with Mr. Roosevelt might conveniently be had and would be welcomed by him be­ fore the state committee meets on Tuesday. Hope you will be able to re­ port satlBfactoiy solution when you come on Wednesday.—William H. Taft.' Protest* Against Root’s Nam*. SCENE FROM "THE ROYAL SLAVE" “On the afternoon of Monday. Au­ gust 16, Mr. Sherman telephoned mo from New York and for the first time apprised me of the fact that there waa a proposal to oppose Mr. Roose­ velt for the temporary chairmanship and that with Mr. Root's name. No other name than Mr. Root's was men­ tioned. I protested against the idea of a contest on such a matter, per­ emptorily declined to be-drawn into a fight against Mr. Roosevelt, and again renewed my urgent advice thut there be prompt and full personal confer­ ence with Mr. Roosevelt before the committee meeting with a view to se­ curing harmony and victory for the party.

Deplore* Break in New York. “Mr. Sherman called upon me here, on the 17th instant to meet an en­ gagement of a week’s standing made with him and Mr. Loudenslager to dis­ cus* the congressional campaign text­ book. Mr. Loudenslager was pre­ vented from coming by an . illness. 1 Dunng the conference wlpi Mr. Sher­ man I told him I deplored the result of the meeting ot the New York state committee because unless the break ■ was repaired- it meant- division be- I tween New York Republican* annd probable defeat. Upon leaving me Mr. Sherman agreed to go into a conference with Mr. Roosevelt, provided he were Invited to do so, with a view of adjusting the situa­ tion if possible even at that late date. Mr. Nicholas Longworth was present and said he would send a telegram to bring about a conference. What the result has been I do not know. Favored No Particular Candidate. "Finally,, in your telegram received^ this morning you state that efforts have been made to create the impres­ sion that I favor a particular candi­ date for election a* state chairman. This is absolutely untrue. I have ex­ pressed no opinion on the subject since an effort was made last winter by the New York congressional delegatlon to secure Mr. Woodruff’s re- I tlremdnt, which failed.

'Hie author, who wrote that other phenomental success, “The Holy City,’, which we also hope to see this season, has chosen for the action of the piece the most romantic period in the history of Mexico, the brief reign of the unfortune Maxlmillian. The character of Aguila, the descendent of the Montezumas, the last of a race now extinct, is a poetic creation which appeals to our imagination. The other characters of a king and inter­ esting cast are equally strongly drawn. The specialties introduced by the comedy element are strictly in keep­ ing with the atmosphere of the sur­ roundings and the bit of sword-play in the duel scene, second act, is as pretty an exhibition- as one could wit­ ness.

On the Amur we were again attacked by brigands, and Mr. Hardy, as well as my coualn, fought like a brave man. In my house in Moscow my cousin, who was of a vio­ lent nature, insulted the American by offering him money, and. when Mr. Hardy Indignantly refused and knocked bls check book out of his hand, struck him in the face. A duel was fought; at which Mr. Hardy, at my request, spared my cousin’s life, though he was himself severely wounded. He has wonderful skill with the pistol, and he shot a cuff button from my cousin’s sleeve, which he sent me as proof that he had com­ plied with my request My cousin was boastful of having wounded Mr. Hardy, and I gave him the cuff but­ ton and told him its story. He became transported with rage and swore that be would not rest till be had rid the earth of this man. He conceived it his duty to avenge the outraged honor of the Romanoff family, as he ex­ pressed* It He thought he must kill this man for other reasons,"—here the princess baited and blushed. “Go on," said the czar, kindly and much interested, “this Is a -most re­ markable story! In it this Mr. Hardyappears as a hero!" “Sire, In Mr. Hardy’s employ was a young Korean boy whose devotion to hia master surpassed anything 1 have ever before heard of. It was more like that of a woman for the man she loves"when a woman really loves. This boy—I am ashamed to tell it, sire— but now your majesty will understand why I have wished to confide In you alone—this boy heard my cousin plot­ ting to kill Mr. Hardy. Your majesty will understand that my cousin was no longer a sane man; that rage and —and—Jealousy, perhaps, had ren­ dered him for the moment irrespon­ sible. The boy, fearing for his mas­ ter's safety and believing that a Rus­ sian nobleman had the power to do anything he wished, stole lntd'*my cousin's compartment at night and killed him." “Wonderful! wonderful!” said the czar in a musing tone; "and are you sure of all this?" “Absolutely. I give you my word as a Romanoff princess that it is true." “And the boy? Do you know where he Is? He can be given up to jui­ tlce." "The ’boy,” replied the princess, solemnly, "no longer exists. Over­ whelmed with horror at what he had done, and feeling sure that the police would find and punish him, be has made away with himself. He told me that it was his intention to do away with himself, and he has disap­ peared!" At this moment Pypine entered with Hardy's record. At the czar's com­ mand he read it, rapidly and In a mat­ ter-of-fact, sing-song tone. It con­ tained nearly every act of Hardy's life, except what had actually hap­ pened within the four walls of his sleeping chamber, ■ since he had set foot on Russian soli. He was accused of sympathizing with the Japanese, of having affiliated with Jews, of having insulted the authorities at Vladivostok by requesting that the imperial gov­ ernment use its influence to get him a clean towel in rhe hotel there, with having worn an overcoat similar to the one found in the nihilists’ den on the evening of the explosion of the Frenchman's famous pill. Further­ more, he had fought a duel with the Prince Romanoff, in which he had been wounded. This fact fur­ nished ihe motive for his alleged crime, which, coupled with his ausnlcious record, left little room, in the ’’uss'-an official mind, for‘doubt of his -.n. v,,a. of thest. points had al- the report given out that the police but are on the track of the real cul••Rise, daughter," said the csar kind­ ly. “We have already decided on this course.

A meeting will be held at the Nashville Club Auditorium tomorrow (Friday) night, and every­ one who wishes to join is requested to be present. "The best game of the year" seems £o be the universal verdict of’ the few fans who turned out to see the gan«e al Riverside park Thursday, the home team having-as adversaries the Alle­ gan team which made the Th--rnapple valley circuit last week. Hale, the ex-leaguer, was. in the box for Alle­ gan, while Bramm did the twirling for the hon«j team. Both twiHers were at their best and the game Was a beauty, but two misplays being made, one by each team. Each (Wirier held the opposing team to three hits, but Hale was unlucky in that one of his bases on balls was later turned into a run by the aid of a single and a sacrifice, giving Nashville the Only rnn of the game and the victory. Allegan was first at bat, and the first two up were easy victims. Tripp got a single, but was left at first. Desenbergljeing an easy out. . Nash­ ville came along in her half with al­ most the same dope: with one down, M. Eck drove one to right field, but was left at the initial sack, while the next two were enrolled with the slain. In the second Allegan went out in order, wjille for Nashville Paskill slapped the pill for a sack and stole second, after two were down, beinp left when “Whiteie" failed to connect with Hale’s slants. Allegan nearly slipped one over in the third, the only time they threat­ ened the sanctity of the plate. Nalson gained a life at first when Brumm booted his grounder, stole second, while Brumm waa walking Hale , and fanning Cummings, and tried to score from second on Michael’s hit to cen­ ter. but was nipped st the plate on a perfect throw by “Whiteie”, and Tripp ended the inning by cutting three long gashes in the atmosphere. Nashville went down in order. Aliegan got her last hit of the day in the fourth, Francisco getting a stagle«after two were down,'but did not even threaten, as Nalson rolled an easy one to third. Nashville then gathered the only score of the day. Habersaat walked, Hines popped to Parsons, then G. Eck straightened one out for a single, which placed Jake at third, from where he scored when Crowley rolled a slow one past Hale. The next two were easy outs. Not an Allegan man saw first after the fourth, and Nashville visited that station but three times, once cih a walk, once on Cummings' error and once on fielder’s choice, but none of them had a ghost of a show ‘to score.

Notes. Tripp made a beautiful catch of Purchiss’ drive in the third. Crowley knocked down a fierce drive from Michael's bat in the eighth, which looked good for a hit. Trautman watched his team males win from the grand stand,. being out with a sprained foot, but will soon be ready for business again. Evidently Hale took a liking to Purchiss, for he didn’t hit him as most of the pitchers do. Brumm pitched for Hastings against Allegan Saturday, holding them to one score, while Hastings piled up nine. Vermontville won from Allegan Fri­ day in a slugging match, 12 to 11. Allegan had the game on ice until the last half, when Vermontville came from behind with a rush and played them off their feet.

A farmer and a business man. His platform is as follows: 1. The people pay the taxes,-and their interests should be looked after. 3 He is opposed to boodleism, trusts and combines, which make the people pay more for a thing than it is worth. 3. If elected he will'give his un­ divided attention'to curbing the octopi that are always trying to strangle the people. He is in favor of a square deal and h fair profit for everything, and leas tax for the people to p*y. 4. That all State, Telephone, Ex­ press companies and all other cor­ porations that pay dividends be as­ sessed the same as other property. He does not believe in class legislation, but equal rights Iq all. Your votes will be appreciated. FOR REPRESENTATIVE. W. H. Schantz. The primary election law puts up to the candidate for nomination not only the duty of'telling the roters -of his party that he desires the nomination, nut ajko, unless he is able to see the voters t>ersonallv, which with me is an impossibility, puts it up to one to state the reasons that can be urged in his lyehalf as an aspirant for nomina­ tion for a public office. As the news­ paper is the organ of publicly. I take this means of giving to the republicans of Barry county in The News the rea­ sons which 1 believe can be urged in favor of my renomination for repre­ sentative in the legislature, and stating why 1 should I* returned to the legis­ lature for one more session. First. I accomplished as much at the session as in the two former ones, and believe I can do as much good work at/the next session as in the three former ones. Second. While I am a farmer and Iptensely interested in agriculture, lye­ cause I l>elieve that success in agri­ culture is the chief factor in our gen­ eral prosperity, yet I have never failed to have enacted into law any good thing thjkt was desired by the people of our cities and villages, and should continue to look after their interests as well as those of the fanner. Third. I will have a personal ac­ quaintance with three fourths of the membenr who,will come back to the next house of representatives and will have their confidence. This will give me a great advantage over any new member and will greatly help to keep Barry county on the Legislative map for the next two years. Fourth. I believe that every farmer ought to know more about the soil dr soils on his own farm. After having liberal appropriations made for the Michigan Agricultural college. I have been trying to have a certain sucq pf the money already appropriated' set aside for the express purpose of the study of our soils out among us and so far, on account of the opposition of some members of the state board of agriculture, a hostile Speaker of the House two years ago and the assault made on mo near the close of the ses­ sion, I have failed in this, the most important work in my whole legisla­ tive career, but believe if I can have another chance, I can make good. Fifth. Because I can l»e relied on in the future as in the past to be on the right side t>f every question com­ ing before the legislature, at least the right as I shall regard it after a care­ ful study of the question at hand. Sixth. Because I am not a chronic office seeker, having never held any elective office but the one I now hold, and because I stated in my first an­ nouncement and again state here that whether 1 am again elected or not, 1 will not again be a candidate for any office within the gift of the people of tills county. Yours truly, W. H. Schantz. MARKET REPORTS. Following are the market quota­ tions current in Nashville yesterday: Wheal, 03c. Oate, 30c. Flour, 83.00. Corn, 75c. Middlings, 81.56. Bran M.40.

LARKIN Harahan's Clark Causes Sensation When He . Linka Former Monon Chief With Graft Casas—Witness Telia of Death Threat. Chicago, Aug. 27.—Introduction of the name of Ira G. Rawn, late presi­ dent of the Monon road, as responsi­ ble for car-repair farming on the Il­ linois Central while he was an official of that system, caused a sensation In Judge Bruggemeyer's court at the opening of the Illinois Central graft prosecution cases. The charge was made by E. C. Cow­ gill, chief clerk for President Hara­ han of the Illinois Central road. Rawn Orders Cars Farmed. Witness Cowgll) testified he knew the late Mr. Rawn when be was vice­ president of the Illinois Central rail­ road and that at that time Mr. Rawn had charge of the construction and op^rgting departments. He also swore that he knew cars had been farmed out by the Illinois Central road for repairs between 1906 and 1909. The practise stepped, be said, in December of 1909. "By whose orders were such oars fanned out?" was a question which caused vigorous protests from the law­ yers for the defense. Mr. Cowgill was Instructed by the court to answer. He said: "I once had a conversation with Mr. Rawn in which he ordered cars farmed out" Threat to Kill. Theophile Reuther, formerly a di­ rector of the Oatermann Manufactur­ ing company, testified that Henry C. Ostermann, president of the Ostermann company, had threatened to kill him if he (Reuther) told the story of the defrauding ot the Illinois Central out of 11,000,000 through car repairs. Tells of Alleged Assault. Reuther told’of Ostermapn’s alleged attack upon him In the offices of the company when he threatened to dis­ close the gigantic steal. Thefts of valuable records, confes­ sions, letters, reports and other proofs of frauds, together with copies of im­ portant documents came to light in the graft war as a rival to the |l.^D0,000 car-repair swindle. Valuable Documenta Are Returned. Documents containing evidence against the men higher up in the huge fraud disappeared from the Illinois Central offices two months ago simul­ taneously with the discharge of an employe m tha railroad's secret serv­ ice department Rev. F. G. Bingley, an evangelist, who lives tn a houseboat in the Chi­ cago river and who preaches to the women ot the, levee, turned the bulk of the missing papers over to Murray Nelson, Jr., chief counsel for the Illi­ nois Central, at noon.

CORTRIGHT S CASH STORE This is a simple business proposition easily figured in dollars and cents. A DeLaval will give you at least ten to twenty per cent, more cream than any settiLg system. If you are simply using crocks or pans, a DeLaval will give you thirty per cent, more cream and in­ crease the value five to ten cents per pound. And it will save the housewife the drudgery of hand­ ling, setting and skimming the milk and caring-for a lot ot crocks, pans and cans. All this means a saving of from 810 •to 815 per cow every year. It is eas^ to ’figure 'what that may mek^to you. Come in and get a book on cream separators and - try a DeLaval and be convinced that we are right. G. L. GLASGOW The Bibulous Bee.

How Just try that question on the salesman the next time you are looking at a new suit. Ask him if it is strictly all-wool, if the coat front will keep from breaking, if the suit will •wear and will absolutely hold and’ keep its shape and style. Then ask him for a Guarantee—a Guarantee on paper and signed. If you don’t get h, come to us and look at Clothcraft All-Wool Clothes Each Clothcraft suit or overcoat carries a Stoned Guarantee—a Guar­ antee that means business and pro­ tects you against disappointment. Each suit is guaranteed to last long and tolook well as long as it lasts. How much good is a suit to you if, after it's a couple of months old, it loses its style and looks “seedy” and ‘‘baggy?’’ rhat’s what any pan-cotton suit will do. But no Clothcraft suit will do that. And these all-wool Clothcraft Clothes sell at the same prices as pan-cotton clothes—$10 to $25. Every man who has seen these wonderful clothes is delighted. You will be too.

Smith & Co GOOD SHOE SENSE ONLY FOUR CROSS THE TAPE Livingstone Is Second, Greiner ThirdWinner Averages 62.5 Milos an Hour, Comes Close to Vanderbilt Cup Contest Time. Elgin. Ill., Aug. 29.—In a nerve racking, reckless race that kept 100,­ 000 men and women in a fevpr heat of excitement tor more than four hours, Ralph Multord, driving a Lo­ zier-, smashed world’s records and won the great Elgin National trophy at the dizzy speed of 62.5 'miles an hour. With But a Single Stop. Thirty-aix times the blonde driver circuited tne rough course of country roads—a course of eight miles 2,499 feet, or, roughly, eight and one-half mile*—with but a single stop. And this stop was made under his mis­ taken Impression that a tire was in danger of slipping from the rim. The remarkable feature of Mul­ ford’s run lies in the fact that he approached within three-tenths of a mile the maximum average in the classic Vanderbilt cup event of a year ago. That such a run could be made on country roads, with prac­ tically no preparation and for a much greater distance than that of the Vanderbilt cup race, is lookeu upon by experts as little abort of mar­ velous. Livingstone Close Behind. Close behind the victorious Lozier was "Al" Livingstone, driver of a National.' Livingstone’s record as sec­ ond at the goal was 60.2 miles an hour for the entire run of 305.03 milea. The third man. another driver of a National, war A. W. Greiner. His av­ erage time was 54.4 miles an hour, reduced tar below those of the other two winners because of numerous stops for repairs and gasoline. Ignores Great Danger. Livingstone was menaced by a dan­ ger of which none save his mechani­ cian and himself was aware. He en­ tered the race In a machine which car­ ried two big cracks in Its frame. A single extraordinary bump or jolt would have caused a twisting of the framework that would have hurled the two men from their scats to an almost certain death.

COUNSEL FOR ALLEGED GRAFT* ER8 CHARGE OFFICIALS WITH JURY BRIBING. DECLARE MONEY NOT STOLEN Harahan and Drennan, Mentioned In Story, Deny They Put Up Money to Get "Big Dan” Coughlin Out of Country. Chicago, Aug. 22.—The startling charge that present officials of the Il­ linois Central road were the central figures In the famous Coughlin jury bribing case, and put up tbe money to get "Big Dan" Coughlin out of the country, came as the first move on the part of the lawyers of Frank B. Harriman, Charles L. Ewing and John M. Taylor, former general manager, general superintendent and storekeep­ er of the Illinois Central, arrested in connection with tbe $1,500,000 car re­ pair frauds. The charges, accompanied by a wealth of detail, names of witnesses and the addresses of men Interested In the case, were drawn up by attor­ neys representing tbe former officials of the Illinois Central now under ar­ rest, and forwarded to State’s Attor­ ney Wayman for grand jury Investi­ gation. Not Stolen at All? But the most significant feature of this move was the undented intima­ tion that the defense of the men held responsible for the $1,500,000 graft would be that this money, so far as they, know, was act stolen at all. On the contrary, their lawyers will insist, much of It was used by tbe railroad for improper and Illegal pur­ poses. It wilj be charged tn at much of the money was used to influence legislation and. as is charged in the notorious Coughlin case, to fix juries. Both President J. T. Harahan and John G. Drennan, district attorney for the railroad, who are named specifical­ ly in the charges drawn up and for­ warded to the state’s attorney by the lawyers, denied the new charges in great detail. Moreover, they denied that It would’ be possible to show that a single dollar of the road's money had been illegally expended to Influ­ ence legislation. Declares It • Club. On the other hand, the charges were answered by the assertion that this was a club to stop the prosecu­ tion of the three former officials now under arrest Harriman, Ewing and Taylor were taken In custody on charges of con­ spiracy and obtaining money under false pretenses. Released on Bonds. The men were taken before Muni­ cipal Judge Bruggemeyer, who re­ leased them on $20,000 bonds each. Both Harriman and Ewing made statements after their arrest "There Is no turth absolutely In the charges, and I have nothing to fear," said Harriman. -My record as gen­ eral manager of the Illinois Central is an open book. Nothing will be proved against me.” "I deny the charges,” said Ewing, "and I will be proven innocent I have done nothing to be ashamed of." “Immunity Bath" for Some. Certain men Ideatlfied with the conspiracy will be given an "immuni­ ty bath" as a result of confessions they made. They will turn state's evi­ dence. It Is said, and they already have promised to take the witness stand and tell the Inside story of the frauds. Its origin. Its growth, its con­ tinuation and the names of the men who benefited. The history of the car repair frauds, tbe alleged fraudulent transactions between the officials and railroad em­ ployee. and the like also will be told on the witness stand.

When the birching was fin­ ished Patrick Henry said to the teacb- ” 'Don’t you think you're a -pretty large man to be doing such light work?* ’’ Two Characteristics. There are two signal characteristics that stand out In Patrick H. Kelley. One of. them is the fact that he Is always prepared, always calm, cool and collected. No contingency arises which he cannot face, no difficulty con­ fronts him which he is not prepared to solve. Ho has given bis life to the work of preparing himself for these things. He has travelled Michigan from one end to the other, he has studied her people, her resources, her interests, her products; he has gone among the people the better to understand their needs and their wishes, he has kept his hand always upon tbe throbbing pulse bf public affairs, state and national and he stands today head and sboulaers, so far as fitnfcss and preparation goes, above any candidate that has asked the nomination for governor In years past Tbe other element is his sinlty, his steadiness, his fairness, his rugged common sense. Many men are erratic. flighty, narrow and unable to come to great decisions quickly. Mr. Kelley Is aane, calm, resolute and just. He Is absolutely in harmony with the facts. He is consistent for he knows no standard and no pathway save that of honesty. Add to these facta that he is an ex­ cellent judge of men and of character and then copaider the strength ot this man’s personality, for that la what personality Is composed of—character­ istics. These qualities combined give him the element of leadership. They make him a man to whom bia fellows -naurally look for guidance and coun­ sel. In bls nature is developed every attribute that goes to make up a man capable of directing tbe destinies of a state. At heart a sympathetic friend, in mind a student, by nature a leader he flret wins men, then studies the tasks to which he must lead them and lastly, with his magnetism and power of command, sends them forward to victory.

Throws Open His Retard. la opening his campaign at ML Pleasant LleuL Governor Kelley an­ nounced that he would ask this nom­ ination solely on his merits and said: "I have been connected with the state government as lieutenant gov­ ernor during the past four years and without any attempt at boasting I want to say that I take great pride in tbe record which I have {nado In that office. I do not pretend to say that my record is free from error. It would be Idle to claim that I have not made mistakes. In this connection, however. I should like to enquire, against what official act of mine have.tbe people of Michigan mode complaint? What Is there In the record which I have made that meets with the disfavor of the people of our state? . "The people certainly have never ex­ pressed any disapproval of the position which I took when the question oftwo-cent fares was before the state legislature.- It is not an exaggeration to say that hundreds of thousands of dollars are saved to the traveling pub­ lic of Michigan annually through the passage of this law. "The manufacturing, shipping and other .business interests of the state have never complained because of my position on the subject of railroad leg­ islation and the creation of the state railroad commission which has been given power to fix freight rates, to prevent debates and discriminations and to exercise general supervision over "the transportation business of the state. The creation of the state railroad commission was a great vic­ tory for the state. My vote at a criti­ cal time during the preliminary stages of Its consideration saved It from de­ feat So far as I know the people of Michigan have never complained be­ cause* I threw all the influence of the office of lieutenant governor in favor of this measure in order to secure for the state long delayed and much need­ ed legislation. “I have never heard any complaint coming from the.people of the state because as lieutenant governor I urged and assisted in the passage of a law designed to prevent tbe watering of stocks and the over capitalization of all public service corporations^ The people of the state are only begin­ ning to wake up to a realization of the tremendous importance of this leg­ islation. "I have never heard any complaint from the people because of the part I took In securing the passage of a law to tax telegraph companies, telephone companies and express companies on the same basis as all other property of the state. No complaint has ever reached me from the people because this legislation Increased the taxes as­ sessed against this class of property almost $300,000 annually. “I have never heard any complaint from the people because I appointed a committee in the state senate to in­ vestigate the whole matter of the con­ servation of our natural resources v/lth particular reference to our water pow­ er and report Its findings to the sen­ ate. As a result of this investigation and report, a law was passed placing •he legislation and control of all water power companies In the hands of the state railroad commission and gave the commission power not only to regu­ late the issue of stocks and bonds of water power companies but also to fix the rate to be charged to consumers. “I have never heard any complaint from the people because I appointed a committee in the senate to inyesti-ate alleged abuses in the handling of state lands. As a result of this inestigatlon a law was passed creating the public domain commission whose work has already met with commenda­ tion in all sections of the state. Un­ der authority given the public domain ‘oramieslon they have appointed a upervbgir of trespass to see that tbe timber upon state land is protected: they have reserved the mineral, coal, oil and gas rights to the state, when­ ever lands have been disposed of; they have reserved the rights of in­ gress and egress over and across state lands bordering on streams; they have provided that sales of state land shall be held In the county seats of the counties In which the lands are situawd, so that the people living In the locality can In the future purchase state lands without going to Lansing; they have protected such forestry re­ serves as the state previously owned and have added to It upwards of 200,­ 000 acres; they have co-operated with boards of supervisors In our northern counties with a view of Inducing set­ tlers to locate upon the agricultural lands of northern Michigan. "Those who have not given particu­ lar attention to the matter have but little conception of the power of the lieutenant governor and tbe speaker of the House of Representatives over legislation. The lieutenant governor appoints all tbe committees of the senate and these committees shape legislation so far as the senate is con­ cerned. By appointing hostile commit­ tees and by exercising other power possessed by the lieutenant governor I could have defeated every important measure enacted at either session of tbe legislature during the past four years. I leave It to the people of Michigan to say whether or not I should have done so and if I had done so whether or not I would be better fitted for the governorship at this time."

PEOPLE. The Lansing State Republican sums up Mr. Kelley and the gubernatorial campaign in a manner which carries conviction and says: The voters of Michigan, whether they be the men who walk behind the plow, the men who labor over the glowing forge, or their fellows whose daily work kce;m clear the channels ot commerce in the busy marts of trade, believe in Patrick Henry Kel­ ley. They believe in his honesty and C_Z (Continued on next page.) Lieut. Governor Kelley’s Campaign Arguments are Fair Enough and Square Enough to admit Plac­ ing them Before the People In Cold Type There Is nothing in the address which LleuL Governor Kelley is de-' llverlng in his campaign for governor of which he need be ashamed, ^nothing for which be must apologize should he be elected. It Is forceful, logical, honest and above all It brings out the issues Dow before the people of Michi­ gan. It Is worth reading even by those who have heard It delivered for it Is by all means tbe clearest, most concise and fairest discussion of state problems that has been introduced into the present campaign. For these rea­ sons we are glad to be able to pre­ sent the address in Its entirety: During the past four- years much progress has been made'by.our state along the line ot taxation and regulatlon of public service corporations. Beginning with tbe administration of Governor Pingree the state has steadily and consistently put forth every endeavor to place all classes of property upon a uniform basis for purposes of taxation and thus insure a fair distribution of the expenses of! the state government Within the last few years the rail­ roads, the t>telegrapb, telephone and express companies have been ap­’ praised by the state and now pay In taxes largely In excess of what, this class of property contributed In for­, mer years. There still remains one, class of property to which the sfflte, should next direct Its attention, with a view to determining it* value for-ilje! purpose of taxation, namely, the iron• and copper mines of the Upper Pen­ insula. Oar Northern Wealth. In the early history of our state। both Ohio and Michigan claimed the' land where. Toledo Is now situated. After some controversy we surren­ dered our claim, and in exchange, the> federal government gave us the Up­ per Peninsula. At that time the peo­ ple of our state little dreamed of the। hidden wealth in that region. Since। then, however, valuable iron and cop­ per mines have been discovered andI developed and the Upper Peninsula• has become one of the important sec­ tions of our state. There are fifteen counties In the. Upper Peninsula, and In seven of them mining Is the chief industry. Eighty per cent of the tax paid by the Upper Peninsula is paid by the seven mining counties and eighty per cent of tbe Inhabitants of that region live in the seven mining: counties. The counties of Marquette, Iron,> Dickinson and Gogebic are rich In iron ore. Since the discovery of iron in Marquette county in 1844 the Up­ per Peninsula has produced more। than 225,000,000 tons of iron ore val­ ued at more than half a million dol­ lars. The output oi the Upper Penin­ sula for the year of 1909 was 13,219,633 tons and is valued nt $31,350,000. The mines of the Upper Peninsula■ employ in the neighborhood of forty thousand men. One company alone' in Houghton county employs .about twelve thousand men. You can get something of an idea of the wealth and power of a great corporation- like' this, when you stop to consider that: It sustains a population of about sixty thousand people. This company started with a capitalization of $2,500,­ 000. Out of the profits of this invest­ ment it has developed its originall property, absorbed a number of small­ er companies, purchased other valu­ able copper mines, built expensive> mills, and has made other permanentI improvements of great value. In ad­■ dition to the profits which have beeni used to develop the property and’ ex­• tend the business, this company hasi paid in dividends to its stockholdersi during the past twenty years, $107.­• 000.000 or upwards of $5,000,000 a year■ on the original investment of $2,500,­■ 000. This gives you something of an ideai as to the richness of this section of{ tbe state. If one of you gentlemen owned ai farm upon which you coud make: enough each year to keep up your■ place, improve your buildings, andI occasionally step out and buy one off your neighbor’s farms and. over andI above all this, lay aside each year In> profits, an amount equal to twice yourr original investment, I am inclined to) think that you would be folly well1 satisfied with your farming opera­tions. Reviewing the Mines. There is a feeling throughout Michi­ gan that the iron and copper mines, are not bearing their full share oft the expenses of our state government.. 1 am Inclined to think that this feel­■ ing has been strengthened in no smallI degree by the fact that many of thej supervisors and assessing officersi throughout the entire mining region» of the Upper Peninsula are either of­• ficers or employees of the mining; company, so that in a sense, at least., the_companles In such cases assessi their own property and I suspect thatt human nature runs pretty much thej same everywhere. If a man assessesi his own property and knows that he» can continue to do Ao year after year,, the chances are that he will not gives himself the worst end of the bargain.. The important question, in my Judg­■ ment. which the next state administra-. t>n In Michigan will have to face, willI be a fair and equitable taxation of ourr mines. The mining companies them­selves realize that this is true andI are sending out to the voters of the> state, a sixty-page pamphlet present­ing their side of the case. The time has come when. In my• Judgment, the state should find out for• itself what our mining counties are> vjorth In a scientific way, through tbe> medium of an expert appraisal to bei conducted by tbe state tax commissioni and when this has been done, the mines should be placed upon the tax roll for both local and state purposes, just like ail other classes of property, in the state. Minnesota’s Example. We have a splendid example to guide us in this great work in the state of Minnesota. Northern Minne­ sota Is rich in irop. Northern Michi­ gan Is rich in Iron and copper. The same questions arose in Minnesota as are now. being considered in Michi­ gan. • The state of Minnesota author­ ized the state tax commission of that state to make an expert appraisal ot the mines of northern Minnesota. The mining companies were required to show how much ore was taken from the ground annually. They were re­ quired to show, also, the cost of pro­ duction, and the price received when sold upon the market From these facta anil from other information re­ quired the commission was enabled to fix, within reasonable limits, from the mines, tbe value of the mining prop­ erty of Minnesota. As a result ot this appraisal and reassessment by the state tax commission, the valua­ tion of the mines of that state was tncreased from $89,000,000 to $194,000­ 000, thus bringing Into the treasury ot the state of Minnesota almost three times the revenue formerly paid by tbe mines of that state. The appraisal of mining properties has been highly satisfactory to the state of Minnesota and, in my Judg­ ment, would be equally as satisfactory, to the people of Michigan. The state ought to know, at the earliest possible moment, the value ot our mines. . For many years we groped in the dark as to the valuation of our rallroad properties but finally an expert appraisal was bad by the state tax commission, assisted. by Professor Cooley, of the University, and now our railroads are assessed at $215,000,000 and pay In taxes between two and three millions more annually than was paid by railroad property before the appraisal tfas made. Result of One Reappraisal. Tbe state tax commission, within the last few months, completed an ap­ praisal of the telegraph, telephone and express properties of the state, and as a result of this appraisal, this class of property now will contribute in the neighborhood of $300,000 annually more than it formerly paid. We have appraised the railroads, the telegraph, telephone and express companles with most gratifying results. An appraisal of our mining property gives promise ot being equally gratltying and important Now, I am not advocating one policy here In lower Michigan, where there are no mines, and something entirely different In the Upper Peninsula, where these mines are located. I have re­ cently visited all the mining sections of the Upper Peninsula and at Crystal Falls, Ironwood, Houghton. Hancock and other mining centers, I told the people that the time bad come when It was necessary for the state to know whether or not the mining districts are bearing their full share of the expenses of our state government. I said to them up there, that if nom­ Inated and elected governor, I should set the wheels In motion to find out what the, mines are worth by means of an expert appraisal, and that If such an appraisal showed that the mines were under assessed, it was absolutely certain that the valuation of their property would be increased. Now, what has this to do with the present campaign? If this work Is to be undertaken, It must be done by the state tax commission. Tbe state tax commission is composed of three men. One of these three retires from office the first day of January. One Of the others will serve for two years, and the other for four years. Two of tbe present commissioners. therefore, will be on the board when. this work Is undertaken. Both of these men are honest, capable offirials. One of them, however, Ilves la the very heart of this mining district His business is there, his closest friends are there, he Is a mining man. the environment of a lifetime has been mining and It Is only natural to aasume that his sympathies may be with that region. The other member of ths. commission comes from one of the agricultural counties - of the state. Shall the U. P. Assess the Farms! The next governor, therefore, will have the appointment of the third man on the state tax commission and he will hold the balance of power. The Upper Peninsula has a candldate for the governorship and It la claimed by him that he Is to receive the solid support of the entire mining district His candidacy has been endorsed by the board of supervisors of Houghton county, a large percentage of the membership of which are offlcers and employees of the mines of that county. Under such conditions. in the event of his nomination and. election, the state might wake up later on to find that not only one member, but perhaps two members of the stale tax commission had leanings toward the mines. And. this, too, at a time when it is the purpose of the state to determine tbea value of the mining property.-of-thal region. I leave it tp yoe'to say whether or not such a course would be wise or prudent Now, one tiling more, Michigan Is great and prosperous largely because of the fact that our .interests are so widely diversified. We have these great mines of Iron and copper In the Upper Peninsula; we have coal; we have salt; we have great agricultural interests; we have nine thousand fao>> �Mlehl- ALL LINES.

On the contrary, we have always endeavored to have every interest and every section repre­ sented in it, in order that every inter­ est and every section should be fairly treated. We have always given the Upper Peninsula her full share in the state government. The stalwart Re­ publicanism of that section of the .state haa always bean exemplified by good majorities and it has always received moat generous treatment in the dis­ tribution of tbe powers of government, and the present time Is no exception to the rule. At this time that section of the state has a justice of the su­ preme court; they have the auditor general, who has in his office one-third of all the patronage of the state gov­ ernment at his disposal; they have the superintendent of public instruction, one of. the best paid officers of the state, receiving a salary of four thou­ sand dollars a year, and having gen-r eral supervision over the schools of our state; they have a regent ot the University; a member of the state board of education, and a member of the state board of agriculture—six elective offices in a single congression­ al district, with a population equal only to one-half that of Wayne county ; and now that section presents a can­ didate for the governorship and in addition to a justice of the supreme court, the auditor general, the super­ intendent of public instruction, mem­ ber of the state board of education, regent of thje University, and member of the state board of agriculture, they ask the people of Michigan to give them the governorship also, with all the power and the prestige of that great office over legislation and involv­ ing the appointment of a tax commis­ sion. with power to supervise every assessment in tbe state, the appoint­ ment of a railroad commission, with general supervision over the transpor­ tation business of tbe state, involv­ ing as it does the $215,000,000 of rallro id property, with power also to ap­ point a banking commissioner, with general supervision over the banks of the state, and an insurance commis­ sioner, with general supervision over the insurance companies and business of the state, thus, if carried out, put­ ting into the hands of a single con­ gressional district with a population equal to only one-half that of Wayne county and dominated by a single in­ terest. namely, mining, practically all the vital executive powers of the state government ’ And all this is at a time when it is sought to find the value of the chief In­ dustry ot that section. I leave it to you to say whether, either now or at anytime, it would be wise or prudent to concentrate in a single section, dominated by a single industry, all the powers of our state government which touch most closely all the leading en­ terprises of our state. Government by “AH’* the People. _ What would the people of the coun­ try say if some one suggested that all the ptyer.s of the national govern­ ment should be concentrated tn the New England states, or in the south­ ern states, or in the Pacific states? No! We want all sections of our country, and all sections of our state, evenly and fairly ..represented in *he government and then no section and bo interest will be left unguarded. It seems to me that this is only good common sense, and I leave it to you to decide tor yourselves between new and September sixth. "This Is your government These are your offlees. You can till them -just exactly as you wish. You'will do in your honest Judgment what will be the best thing, not for any particular section ot the stats, but for all the sections of the state—for the Upper Peninsula, for tbe farmers, for the factories, for business men, for laborers and for all sections and interests alike and If you do that no one will have cause for complaint Your verdict on the sixth day of September will have to stand, No one. can set it aside.

Sick Kidneys Weaken the Whole Body—Make You III, Languid and Depressed. Sick kidneys weaken tbe body through the continual drainage of Hfe-ftiving albumen from the blood in­ to the urine, and the substitution of poisonous uric acid that goes broad­ cast through the system, sowing the seeds of disease. Loss of albumen causes weakness, languor, depres­ sion. Uric poisoning causes rheuma­ tic pain, nervousness, nausea, cricks in tne back, gravel and kidney stones. The proper treatment is a kidney treatment, and the best remedy is Doan’s Kidney Pills. Great Nash­ ville cures prove it. Mrs. S. C. Larkin, Mill St., Nash­ ville, Mich., says: “I received great benefit from Doan’s Kidney Pills. 1 was afflicted for year* with kidney trouble and felt miserable in every way. Mornings when arising my bark was extremely lame and I was annoyed greatly by irregular pas­ sage* of the kidney secretions. Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured from Furniss’ drug store, helped me from the first and proved so beneficial that 1 am pleased to recommend them." For sale My all dealers. Price 50 cents.

Reasons Why You Should Wear Drew Shoes 1st Because the Drew is not an advertised shoe. 2nd Because every advertised shoe’s quality is reduced the price of its advertising. 3rd Because the quality of the Drew shoe is better to the amount of the'other shoe’s advertising.

They stowed away a big dinner, and they put in the day safe and sound. visiting and talking when it rained too hard to do anything else. The big feature of the day was a base ball game between the two counties, Eaton county winning by a score of 6 to 3, Barry county having all the best of It on the start, but falling down during the latter half of the game on account of llieir pitcher weakening, while Eaton had an extra twirler in reserve. The ladies enjoyed themselves mostly in pitching quoits, and it is said that there were somoexperts in the bunch. Altogether it was a mighty pleasant occasion and it will not be the last one of the sort by any means. All of the Nashville carriers were present with their wives and families. To the People of Barry County: Some persons are persistently mis­ representing the ticket selling plans adopted by the MEMBERS of the Barry County Agricultural Society at the society’s annual meeting last De­ cember. The officers of the Agricultural So­ ciety had nothing whatever to de with making the changes, the members and they alone being responsible for the Jdans adopted, and the officers thereore have no option in the matter, but must curry out the plans which the members have adopted for their guidance. The members adopted them on their own initiative, and after full and fair discussion. There is a great deal of misappre­ hension as to what the ticket selling plans are. We will explain them so there need be no misunderstanding: (1). Any. person who buys a mem­ bership certificate and who enters any live stock will tie given a pass so that he can pass in or out of the gates by means of his pass. • . (2).. No charge will be made for passing a team into the grounds for any person who has a membership ticket. » (3). Any person who buys $1.00 worth of tickets at one time .at 25 cents each will be given a member­ ship certificate, if he so desires, which certificate will make him a member of the society, and entitle him to pass his team i nto the grounds without charge, and also entitle him to a vote at the annual meeting in December. (4). No charge will lx* made for 10 years old or under. (5). The purchase of $1.00 worth of tickets at one time entitles the pur­ chaser to the membership certificate which will entitle him to enter any articles for premium, and if he enters livestock of any kind will entitle him to a pass as stated.in article No. 1. (6). A ticket will be required al the gate of every person above 10 years of age except those who have passes for live stock. This ticket will cost 25 cents. (7). Every rig that passes into the fair grounds, unless the owner buys $1.00 worth of tickets at one time and has a membership certificate, must give up a 25 cent ticket for passing that rig. As we have explained, if the owner buys $1.00 worth of the 25 cent tickets at one time and gets his mem­ bership certificate, it will cost him nothing to pass his team or rig Into the fair grounds at any time (luring the fair. (8). Any person who has purchased $1.00 worth of tickets at one time, and who thereby obtains a membership certificate, if he shall desire to leave tlie grounds after he has once passed in, will be given s pass, good for that day only, that will entitle him to go into the grounds again without buy­ ing another ticket, by applying at the secretary’s office on the grounds for such a pass. As we have explafbed. this ticket selling plan was adopted by tbe mem­ bers of the society, after full and fair discussion, and in order to nut an end to the abuses and losses uniter the old membership ticket plan, which abuses all our readers.so well understand that nothing further need be said about it. Tide society never could make any progress or headway in re­ ducing its debt, but on the other hand would find the debt growing larger because of tbe injustice in all cases and fraud in many cases practiced un­ der the old membership ticket plan What is the justice of- charging a single man. or a man and wife with­ out children, as much for a member­ ship ticket as was charged in other cases for a family of ten? And the old ticket was a constant invitation to fraudulent practices. The ticket would lie passed through the wire fence in spine cases to l>e used again and again, and those not members of the owner’s family would ride into the grounds on the membership ticket. It was an unfair plan, and the members themselves recognized its unfairness, and themselves adopted the plan given above, which is fair to everybody and fair to the society. Barry Co.

FURNISS ' ■ ■ ■■■ ' SUCCESSFUL OPENING. The opening of Naahville'g new dry foodt and grocery store last Batur' moat successful af­ fair, the store be­ ing well filled all ■ day and evening with visitors in­ specting the new store. . And they did more than in­ spect, too, for they kept the prourietors and clerks busy all the lime showing and selling new goods, a very handsome line of which were on PETEK rothhaar display. The firm was much disap­ pointed at not having all of their dress goods in, about half cf them being de­ laved, but in other resj>ect8 the stock was up to a high standard and made a very favorable impres­ sion on all*the visitors. The store was tastilv decorated with potted plants abd cut flowers, and carnations were presented to the ladies as souve­ nirs. Excellent music was furnished dur­ ing the afternoon and evening by Misses Mae Rothhaar and Cecil Zuschnitt, the piano being surrpunded with pleased listeners nearly all the time. 'v The proprietors of the new store, Peter Rothhaar and son Earl, are more than pleased with the success Of their opening day and with the ex­ cellent tradejfiven them that day, as well as so far this week, which would indicate that there is certainly room in Nashville for an up-to-date store of this kind. They thank their friends for giving them such a cordial welcame to the ranks of Nashville's mer­ cantile establishments, and extend them al) a cordial invitation to call again and often. "!■ ii । is the book written by Mr. Roosevelt himself, and is entirely different from the trashy vblumes of piratical stuff which are being harped about the country. This book is published by Scribners, and is a superb octavo volume, the moat notable book of the year and destined to become a classic among books of adventure. It is a great book, by the most distinguished figure in the world today. It shows the author not only as a mighty hunter, but as a profound student of natural history, a close observer of both plant and anitpal life, and a master of graphic and picturesque narrative. The book is profusely illustrated by original drawings and by photographs made by Kermit tRoosevelY, who was the official photographerof tip expedition. Mr. Roose­ velt’s object in making the expedition was not merely .that of a sportsman to. accumulate personal souvenirs of his hunting skill, but he planned a serious scientific expedition to collect for the Smithsonian Institution at Washing­ ton as complete a representation as possible of the large and small game of Africa. At lhe end of the expedi­ tion, Mr. Roosevelt explains his atti­ tude both as a sportsman and as a naturalist us follows: “Kermit and I kept about a dozen trophies for our­ selves: otherwise we shot nothing that was not used either as a museum specimen or for meat—usually for both purposes. We were in hunting grounds practically as good as any that ever existed: but we did not kill a tenth nor a hundredth part of what we might have killed had we been willing. The mere size of the bag indicates little as to a man’s prowess as a hunter, and almost nothing as to lhe interest or value of his achieve­ ment.” Mf. Roosevelt's book is a good book to be read by the entire family, bv the young as well as the old, for it is a clean book of clean sportsmanship, and contains much of more than ordinary interest about the least known of all the continents of the world. It is a book which should be on the reading table of every American home. >■■■■ ■■ LOCAL NEWS. ~ NUMBER 4 ! ■ ...

Editor News: . It may be of Interet^ to some of your readers to hear" a few words from Hamilton. Il is in Steuben Co., the northeast county of the stale, and on lhe Wabash raiiroad. Il is an old town, having been located eighty years ego, yet has a population of be* 600. with no electric lights, sewers, or any other public works', and no sidewalks except a few on Main street and the most of those very poor. The build­ ings, too. are generally poor, and there is not a shade tree in the town so far as-1 have noticed. There are lots of widows and old maids here,^ but Nashville can outdo them all in being enterprising. The land here is rolling. Crops of all kinds are good except potatoes, and I noticed some of the best corn 1 have ever seen. Apples are plenty and of good quality, but no sale for them. The trees arc all well loaded.Fish lake here is a great summer re­ sort. I met an old schoolmate here whom I had not seen for 56 years, and we had a good lime and a good visit. He is one of the leading men of the town. While I am writing there is a ball game in progress, and the sounds are very much like we hear at times com­ ing up from lhe Brady Hats. Yours truly, R. C.

Her hands, which she clasped and un- clasped nervously, were forge and reddened by toll, but they were shape­ ly nevertheless. But there was neith­ er refinement nor goodness in her face. There were great possibilities of evil which experience could have detected. Hers had been a hard life, and It had made her a hard woman. She was perhaps twenty-five years old, but looked older. For tours the woman had waited In that hut alone. It had been storming badly when she began her vigil, and the violence of toe tempest had In­ creased until she feared that no hu­ man soul could brave IL That she very much wanted some one to at­ tempt It. that she very keenly, ardent­ ly, longed for that was quite evident .“You Are Going on Great 1b the power of love.

But before he could raise it there was a sudden movement back of him. The man In the door­ way turned sharply. ’ “What!" be cried to bis wife. "You would, you—” At that Instant the boy was con­ sclous of a sudden flash of light and a sharp detonation, The room was filled with noise, a little cloud of ■moke blew down on him.

With a convul­ sive movement he pulled the trigger The bullet burled Itself In the floor, while the man sank down on hts knees, swayed a moment, a frightful look In his eyes, and then pitched for­ ward on his face and lay still. "Good God!" whispered the boy turning to his companion, “you’ve shot him!” He stared at the woman, who still clasped tbe llttlv silver-mounted Michigan's Biggest Automobile Show in weapon she had used with such ter­ rible effect and "Oh, that Midway." "It was his life, or your life or mine," was the answer. “I did It for you,” she said quickly, seeing a look of horror and repulsion spreading over the face of her companion. “Yes—yes!

Chicago, Sept. 13.—Ten men, five ot them presidents of the most extensive packing companies tn the world and all of them directors of the National Packing company, which has been the special object of recent govern­ mental investigation, were indicted by the federal grand Jury on a charge of having violated the Sherman anti-trust act, _ Three indictments, the first one con­ taining five counts and the others one each, were returned before Judge Kenesaw M. Landis, who empaneled the grand Jury two months ago. The men indicted are: J. Ogden Armour, president of Ar­ mour & Co. Louis F. Swift, president of Swift k Co. Edward A. Tilden, president of the National Packing company and of the firm of Libby, McNeil & Libby. Francis A. Fowler, head of Fowler Bros. Edward F. Swift, vice-president of Swift k Co. Charles A. Swift, director of Swift k Co. Arthur Meeker, general manager for Armour & Co. Thomas J. Conners, superintendent of Armour & Co. . Louis H. Heyman, manager of Mor­ ris k Co. The maximum penalty for each vio­ lation of the Sherman act is a fine of >5,000 or imprisonment for one year, or both. Tbe indictments charge that all of the defendants have engaged in a com­ bination in restraint of interstate trade in fresh meats, that they have engaged In a conspiracy in restraint of trade and that they have monopolised the trade tn fresh meats by unlawful means. The Indictments cover 125 pages of typewritten matter. They go into every angle of the packing Industry in this country and contain the allega­ tion that 85 per cent of the fresh meat, consumed In the eastern, west­ ern and middle southern states comes directly from the companies controlled by the defendants. The proportion of each concern in this trade is given as follows: Swift group of houses, 47 per cent.; Armour group, 40 per cent; Morris group. 13 per cent J. Ogden Armour, who stands at the head of what is generally considered the.largest meat concern tn this or any other country, Issued a statement through Attorney Levy Mayer bearing on the Indictments. He declared that he regretted that the Indictments had been returned at this time and said that the packers bad suffered a great deal through mis­ representation. This, he declared, will be largely remedied when the present case comes to trial, as it will be shown that the meat business has been conducted along legitimate lines, and that the average profit has been not more than 2ft per cent, on the total Investment Mr. Armour's state­ ment was the only one of any length that was issued by any of the Indicted men. MICHIGAN NASHVILLE OPERA HOUSE FOURTH CLASS POSTMASTER EXAMINATION. Saturday, October 8, 1910. Tbe United States Civ if Service Commission announces that on the date named above an examination will lie held at Nashville, Mich., as a re­ sult of which it is expected to make certification to fill a contemplated vacancy in the position of fourth class postmaster of class B at Maple Grove, Mich., and oilier vacancies as they may occur at that office, unless it shall be decided in the interests of the service to fill the vacancy by reinstate­ ment. . Tbe conqiensatlou of tbe post- Yours to please and accommodate, o. m. McLaughlin. IMPLEMENTS AND VEHICLES. Law. John Ehret, living on his farm, known as the House farm, one mile j^ast of Nashville, will sell at public auction, at the premises, a large amount of live stock, hay and grain, farming implements and some house­ hold goods on Monday, September 26, c<>mmenctag at 10 o'clock a. m. Mr. Ehret has decided to move to town and tbe sale will be absolute. Watch next week's issue for a full list of articles. H. E. Downing will be the auctioneer. The statement of condition of state banks on September 1 as called for by the state banking department shows the Old Reliable' Farmers and Mer­ chants bank well above the half million mark and speaks volumes for tbe confidence which tbepublic reposes in this time tried old institution. In panic or prosperity this stable institu­ tion has always been ready and will­ ing to accommodate its patrons in every way and we always bear in mina that'our success is largely due to the confidence of the public in our ability and integrity. If there is one thing. in which churches, as a rule, need to be more careful, it is the matter of preacher’s salaries. With an indifference and an insensibility which we cannot understand many churches seem to think that a contract between them­ selves and the minister is no contract at all. They promise him a definite salary then pay him whatever is con­ venient. The gas man, the coal man, even the sexton must be paid, but the debt owing the minister is looked up­ on as altogether righteous and proper. At tbe Republican county convention held at Hastings yesterday, Judge Charles M. Mack was re-elected chair­ man of the county committee and C. H. Osborn was elected secretary. The Nashville member of the committee for the coming two years is Von W Fur­ niss, while Wm. N. DeVine will re­ present the west precinct. J. C. Tomp­ kins is the member for Assyria, C. R. Palmer for Maple Grove and C. F. Grozinger for Woodland. Hon. C. L. Glasgow and Von W Furniss were elected delegates to the state conven­ tion to be held at Detroit. Otto Schulze has returned from the great fair at Des Moines. Iowa, where he exhibited a herd of his celebrated O. 1. C. hogs. He failed to land all the money in sight for premiums, for the reason that his breed of slock is so different than they have been used to in that part of the country that they didn't know iust what to make of them, but the herd was the center of interest in the swine department and -he made many sales of young stock, including ten spring pigs at an aver­ age of 447 each, and one yearling at 460.00. He is exhibiting at Grand Rapids this week and will go from there to the state fair at Detroit Do you love your Lown? Do you have any concern for its future? \Vould you like to see it grow, prosper and extend its trade and iniluence? If you do, then ask yourself these questions: Do I help support and maintain its institutions? Do I en­ courage every movement looking to the up-building of the town? Do 1 speak a good word for the town- and the people al every opportunity? Do I lend assistance to its industries? Do I patronize them? Do I'fully under­ stand the duties devolving upon me as a citizen?" If you cannot answer these questions in the affirmative then ynu are not only a stumbling block but a detriment to any community. SCHOOL FOR THE .DEAF. The Michigan School for the deaf al Flint will open for tbe fifty-sixth term on Wednesday, September 2L. The constitution provides for the education of the deaf and the state has provided this school where every child, too deaf to be educated in the public schools, can receive free tui­ tion, board, medical attention, etc. The school is in every respect up-todate. Great attention being given to training in speech and trades. Dr. F. D. Clarke is the superintendent. The school is beautifully situated in the city of Flint. THE BEST THE WORLD HAS EVER PRODUCED. The corn crop is no longer a slow, difficult crop to harvest. The Johnston Harvester is strong and durable—always in perfect balance— no side draft -there are no packer*, and the automatic folding fingers account for the fact that the Johnston • knock* o‘ff fewer ears than any other binder yet produced. The Johnston handles tangled corn perfectly and is very easily handled. See us for price and terms.

Priestman Shot by Ralph Wal­ ker. Murderer Still at Liberty. William Priestman of Lake Odessa, aged <i0, was shot and instantly killed inhis own dooryard about 6:30 o’clock Thursday night by Ralph 'Walker, aged 35, a painter. The^ct was the result of "a quarrel l*eiween Priestman and' Walker when the latter tried to gain admission to the Priestman home about a week ago to see his wife. Mrs. Walker had left her home and gone . to live with Mrs. Piflestman. her mother. She refused to see her husband, and wheh he sought to talk with, her Mr. Priestmen ordered him off the premises. He refused to go and the elder man struck him, Knocking the intruder down. Walker swore revenge and -chose murder us the means of getting even. The officers are scouring the country for the murderer, but have yet no cer­ tain clew as to ■ his whereabouts. He is thought to be hiding in the woods as it is quite sure that he did not catch any outgoing train. Officers throughout the state have been noti­ fied and a close watch is being kept. Mrs. Walker said she could not live with her husband because he had an ungovernable temper. She says that he would become angry at trivial things and was sometimes abusive and cruel in his treatments her. She lived with him until she began to fear for her safety, and then sought shelter with her mother. When Walker came to see her a week ago she was afraid to talk with him and told her step-father that it would do no good, as she could never make up with her husband. The young man became abusive when ordered to leave the premises aqd 'started the quarrel which paved the way to the murder of Priestman. Walker did not work at his trade us a painter sleadly, taking any odd job that came his way. He was regarded as something of a loafer, but had many friends and associates. No children were the result of the Walker marriage. Mr. Prieslinun was a retired farmer and a very respectable and well liked man. He had lived in the village sev­ eral years and owned enough proper­ ty to make himself anti wife comforta’ble for life. • Mrs. Walker shows no pity for her husband, her feelings being only of grief for the fate of her foster parent. The aim of Walker was steady and sure, two bullets being fired and both striking in the right breast just below the base of the neck. Walker was not a drinking man. Only the widow survives Mr. Priest­ man. A coroner's inquest was deemed un­ necessary. Medical examination showed that death had been instan­ taneous. The funeral Services of Mr. Priest­ man were held Sunday afternoon and a vast crowd from miles around attend­ ed the services. The florial tributes were manv and beautiful. Burial was made in the village cemetery. GOOD ROADS MEETING. There has been considerable good roads agitation in Nashville and vicinity during the past few weeks, enough lo show plainly that the jieopie are becoming awakened to the necessity of building better highways. There is no agency more potent for prosperity than good roads, and the farmers of this community are ap­ parently determined to make a serious tffortto have better and more per­ manent roads. A meeting has been culled to be held at the Nashville opera house on Saturday afternoon of this week to discuss^ie subject in all its aspects. ■The state highway commissioner has promised to either l>e here him­ self or to send one of his deputies to attend the meeting and confer with those present in regard to the mutter. There has been enough time und money »|>ent on the highways of this vicinity in the past to have Macadamiz­ ed every rod of road in the community. The thing to do now is to quit this hit and miss method of “fixing” roads and to see that what work is done hereafter is work that will show per­ manent result*. The repairing of roads is necessary, but every town­ ship should have a definite amount of permanent roads built every year. If this wus done, it would bp a ioy to travel over them. The farmercould mar­ ket the products of his farm at half the expense he is now compelled to pay. he would be less isolated from his neighbors, the schools, the church, ano he would find it much easier to keep the young folks on the farm and away from the city. Good roads are a necessary adjunct to good communities, and would do more than any other one thing to in­ crease the price of farm property. A farm ten miles from town, with'firstclass roads, would sell for a better price than one three miles from town with poor roads to market. The good roads question is a most pertinent one and is of paramount importance to the market town as well as to the farmer, so let us all turn out to this meeting and show our interest in the matte-.

Mia* Crooks was a teacher of sciences in our schools for three years, resign­ ing that position to enter a larger field of labor.

Agricultural Society To the Patrons of the Barry County Fair: We want to put the actual situation of the fair up to you, feeling confident you will do the square thing by the Society and yourselves. We have previously explained the very liberal ticket provisions, and also that the members of the Society, and not the officers, made the changes in the ticket plans for the fair, and did so after full and fair­ discussion at the annual meeting last December, and did so because in-their judgement it was the only way to make the fair pay out, and become'an institution- that will be the credit it ought to be to the people of Barry County. . Bad weather, and in the judgment of the. members, a very faulty ticket system have made our fairs unsuccessful financially for 4 years. It takes close to $5,000 to pay the expenses of the fair, without any im­ provements being made. We are now squarely up against improve­ ments that have to be made, and We ask for your liberal patronage that we may .be able to make them. We shall do-nothing about them until after the fair. We greatly need new fences on the east and south sides. Several of the buildings need Ur be shingled and that soon. We need additional ground. We have a small indebtedness now, and therefore cannot undertake any of these improvements. The indebtedness represents some of the improvements we had to make in the past 4 years, such as enlarging the grand stand, new fences on west and north sides, seat­ ing on the grounds for your comfort, and additional facilities for hitching teams. ■ The Barry County fair is unique in thij: It is- the only fair we know which Is an exclusive county fair. All the other county . fairs around us compel the people of the county to compete with all comers,whether in or out of the county. The Barry County Fair is exclusively for Barry County products. No others can compete. This is wise. We have the grains, the fruits, the live stock, the products of-all kinds in Barry county to make a big and a successful fair, and a fine exhibit We must devise some plan for more money for our fair as we have shown you. The matter was put squarely before the members at the annual meeting. They discussed it thoroughly, and decided that the Barry county fair could not continue the ticket plan that had been dis­ carded by every other fair in this state. Expenses of the Society as of every farmer, have increased in relent years. And the members decid­ ed that the only way to provide the increased revenue was to change the ticket plan, and they changed it, after due consideration. And now the matter is squarely up,to you. The changes made in the ticket plan will cost the individual very little more.than heretofore. But that little means the difference l»etween having the fair pay or fail to pay. The changes will end the abuses and losses under the old ticket plan, and put everybody on an equality, and give everybody a “square deal.” . Every purchaser of four single tickets at one time at 25 cents each will be given a membership certificate. With that certificate, he can each day by applying to the secretory, get a pass good for the day it is issued, permitting the bearer to go through the gate on his pass. We ' have explained how a membership certificate will permit the owner’s rig or team to enter the grounds free. Then too, every holder of a membership ticket becomes a joint owner of all the Society’s property, which is valued at $18,000, and shares in that ownership for the year, or until the next fair is held. Barry county is a splendid county, and its splendid progressive people will .surely meet their duty to the county fair this year, and put It in the way to become the splendid institution, creditable to the county and its people, which it ought to and can become if the patrons will kindly take the interest in its welfare and success which they can and ought.

A Tallahassee gentleman, seeing the following publication in hts old.home paper in Tennessee, requests the True Democrat to publish it, says the Tal­ lahassee True Democrat. We have no credence in it, but, being a novelty, it is reproduced: The letter was published at the re­ quest of Mrs. Ruble Crutchfield, route 1, Traz<vant, Tenn., who said that she has had the letter three years and that bad luck has continually fol­ lowed her until she decided to obey its injunction and have it published. The letter says: “And he that hath a copy of tliis letter without publish­ ing It to others shall not prosper, but he that published! it to others shall lie blest by me, and if their sins be as many as tbe stars of the night, and if they truly Relieve, they shah be .par­ doned.” Mrs. Fannie Wortman of Marion, Ind., knows something of the history of the letter. Il was when Mrs. Wort­ man had the letter published that Mrs. Crutchfield is supposed to have gotten possession of it. The follow­ ing is taken, from a Marion paper: ' Mrs. Wortman says she lived in Dalton, Ga.. until last August, when she came to this city. She said the letter given below was first found under a stone at tbe foot of the cross on which Christ was crucified. On tbe stone was written: “Blessed is he who shall turn me over.” No one knew what this inscription meant un­ til a child turned the stone over and discovered the letter written by Christ himself. The letter came into the hands of a man who kept it as a se cret memento of tbe Savior. He, how­ ever, refused to have it published ac­ cording to the orders of Christ and consequently he never prospered. He kept the fact that he possessed (he letter a secret, and on his death gave it to hi* oldest son. Thus the letter was kept in the family for over a thousand years and was brought IO this country by early settlers. It was kept a secret by the family while they lived, in Virginia, but they never prospered, and ill luck continu­ ally followed them, as it did their an­ cestors, until on the death of the only daughter the letter was turned oyer to a lady by the name of Mrs. Towasin, who, not wishing to disobey the order of Christ, at once had it published io the Tribune, of Rome, Ga., October. 31, 1891. The Citizen of Daltou. Ga., copied the letter, and Mrs. Wortman, now living In Marion, Ind., slipped the piece and has had It in her pos­ session for a number of years. She has never had It published and states tliat she has had bad luck since she has been keeping the article and be­ lieves that her misfortunes have all come from the fact that she never gave the article out for publication. In the letter was written the com­ mandments of Christ, signed by the angel Gabriel ninety-nine year* after the Savior’s death. The letter follows: “Whosoever works on the Sabbath day shall be cursed. 1 command you to go to church and keep holy the Lord's day without any manner of work. You shall not idle or misspend your time In bedecking yourselves in »upe.rfluitie* or costly apparel and vain dress­ ing. for I have ordered it a day of rest. I will have that day kept holy that your sin* may bo forgiven you. CARD OF THANKS. We thank the many kind friends who showed their love and sympathy during our bereavement. May God reward you all.

FURNISS There was a large niitriber of in­ fluential farmers and a considerable smattering of business men out to the Eood roaas meeting held at the opera ouse Saturday afternoon. The meeting was of an Informal nature, everybody Who wanted to talked and asked questions, and a lively interest was manifested. C. L. Glasgow called the meeting to order and in a brief talk stated the object of the meeting and made a num­ ber of pertinent suggestions; among which the most important was that good roads were important alike to the country and to the town, and that there should be naqght but a feeling of friendliness and unanimity between urban and raral citizens in regard to the matter. He then introduced State Highway Commissioner .Ely, who made a short talk to the audience, giving them.an idea of how the state reward roads were constructed, the l<est roads to build, and different method*! that different localities used in getting at the question. He was of the opinion that a good gravel road was practically as good for rural com­ munities as stone roads, and at a much le»s expense'. He had been around Nashville on a drive with a committee of citizens, and among the places visited was the piece of road south of Nashville, where it has been proposed the work should be started. He estimated that the mile of road in question could be made a state reward road at a cost of about 81,200, which is 8300 less than the average cost per mile of state reward gravel roads. This amount could be saved by the comparatively small amount of grad­ ing necessary and the proximity of good gravel. He said that there was np use of trying to build stone roads at a less cost than 84,000 per mile, and thought that we might belter build more miles of gravel roads than to tackle stone roods. The require­ ments of the state law are for a road­ way 18 feel iu width, but the commissionerthinksthisis too narrow and said that a good country road ought to be not less than 22 feet in width, in which the large majority of the audience seemed to concur. ' Mr. Ely was compelled to leave the meeting before adjournment, in order to catch -a train, and aftei he had Kne the talk became general, remarks ing made by Von vV. Furniss, J. B. Marshall, H. C. Glasner, B. B. Downing, H. A. Offley and several others. Finally it was decided to form an organization,, with a corps of officers ana an executive committee, to continue the work for which this meet­ ing'was called, namely, the awaken­ ing of the people of Nashville and vicinity to the necessity of having better roads, and to consider not only the best way of securing them, but to arouse continued interest ,in the work. The officers of the association are Von W. Furniss, president: F. J. Feighner, vice president: ■ B. B. Downing, secretary: J. B. Marshall, treasurer. The other members of the executive committee are A. D. Wolf of Maple Grove, John Andrews of Kalamo*, Luther Moore of Vermont­ ville, Philip Garlinger of Castleton and H A. Offley of the village. The offibecs and other members of the com­ mittee ex|>ect to get together in the noar future and have a meeting to consider ways and njeans, and will call another public meeting shortly to consider plans for getting to work at the good roads question in earnest. Now that the ball has been started, let us keep it rolling. The way to build good roads is to build them. They can’t be built with hot air, nor around the stove in the back room. It will require concerted and persistent effort. Good roads cost a lot of money, and it will take several years before all the roads in this vicinity can be made what they ought to "be, but the sooner we start work and get at It in earnest, the sooner tbe work will be accomplished. Let us not waste our time quibbling over unim­ portant minor details, but let us get at the work in hand and push it in earnest until we can show tangible re­ sults. skin and some picture port cards from Furniss' drug store, sorue stencils, a bottle of oil, a screw driver and a pocket book from S. A. Gott's store, and had several other articles in his possession which it is thought he had lifted from other stores here. Sweet lives in Kalamo township, where he bears a rather unsavory reputation Those who know claim he has his neighbors terrorized and that they are all afraid to make com­ plaint against him, no matter what he does, for fear that he will wreak ven­ geance on them in some way. He has been suspected of shoplift­ ing for some Mime, and has' been watched by some of our merchants for some time past, but this is the first lime that sure evidence has been ob­ tained against him. This time -how­ ever. he was caught with the goods and h*l to admit the crime. AN IMPORTANT POSITION. Barry County Voter* Should Con­ sider the Question of Represen­ tative In the State Legis­ lature. In these insurgent times, when poli­ tics a« it has iteen known in past years, cuts so little figure, and when the voter is getting closer all the time to the inside of the real meat in the cocoanutj it behooves every voter to consiaer careiully the qualifications and the characteristics of the men whom be is'sonding to represent him in the law-making bodies of the state.. It isn't a question so much as to the man's politics as it is to his ability and his integrity. Is he capable of digging into and seeing under the surface of important state matters? Is he honest, and if so is his record In the past sufficient assurance that he will stay honest? Is he with the people, or is he with the interests? These are tbe important questions that every voter should -settle in his own mind and settle, definitely before the day comes on which he is to cast his ballot. There is a candidate l>efore the people of Barry county this year in whom the voters may place every con­ fidence. He is a man who has lived in Barry county all of his life: who has grown to manhood here: who has been a successful" business man and farmer: who has won his way from boyhood up by honest, hard' work, strict integrity’and unswerving loyal­ ty to his friends. Such a man is Henry C. Glasner, candidate for representative in the state legislature. He is a man who can be depended on, end in any and all places. There will be no graft in high places with his knowledge and consent. His past record is sufficient assurance of that. A vote fc: Henry (Glasner is a '■vote for a man who is honest and who will stay honest. That is an assurance which amounts to something in these times. Thihk it over. A vbte for Mr. Glasner means a vote , For economy in state affairs; For equalization of taxation: For control of corporations: For a more efficient find less expen­ sive primary election law; For tbe initiative, referendum and recall: F«r the election . of United State senators bv direct vote of the people; YOUNG FOLKS DISAPPEAR.

TRACTION WHAT SOME OF THEM WILL BE: ALSO LIST OF AMUSE­ MENTS OFFERED. . GIVE HOME THE PREFERENCE. In all our dealings, whether large or small, we should always give home Lhe preference. There are people who either from habit or error in judgmeat, make a business of going away from home to do their trading. Like­ wise skilled labor that they may have to do; and in Ute latter case they frequently employ those whose know­ ledge of the trade or profession is very inferior to that obtainable at home, and in many instances pay total strangers for poor workmanship more than home talent would ask for guaranteed work. And while we would not curtail the liberty of any one in this connection, we would sug­ gest that they consult their own inter­ est, al least those of a mercenary character, and especially where by so doing they can favor a neighborhood or a friend. We can well afford to nay a little more for things we have to buy when we know that the money in­ volved in our borne transacttons’ (or, at least, a portion of it) will remain in our midst and doubtless contrribute something to our neighbor's welfare, and possibly return to swell our own pocketbooks.

'•pHE IMPORTANT PART of a corset is the part that you do not see—the design and the boning. If the design is faulty, it will not v give style or comfort— if the boning is stiff, it will not fit; if weak it will not wear." For these two essen­ tials you must rely on the reputation of the maker oryour merchant. You know us. We know Warner’s corsets, You see the outside, We have seen the inside. Every bone rust proof, every steel double, extra flexible and unbreak­ -Proof able. Every bone laid true so that it cannot twist. An honest corset. Every pair guaranteed not to rust, break or tear. And the design. On,that depends the fit of your dress and the appearance of your figure. What a subtle thing is the design, without which no amount of good workmanship can make a suc­ cessful corset. The Warners have deigning es­ tablishments in Paris and New YorlbL Styles cannot get ahead of them. They originate style. Warner’s corsets fit and are comfortable. Try a pair. We can fit you.

Think how much this meant, to the smooth set of your dress—how. much more perfectly it will hang over a-“Klosflt” than it does over the old qlvle petticoat with its draw strings. • Every “Klosflt” petticoat is guaranteed to wear better, fit bet­ ter, give more complete satisfaction and make your, dress tit bet­ ter than any petticoat you have ever before worn.

White's evidence at *he hearing. Arguments on making permanent the ruling to admit “jack-pot'’, testi­ mony wore made, each side being allowed twenty minutes. Upon the con-' elusion of the arguments they ruled that the question which precipitated It should be answered. They also decided that hereafter each '’jack­ pot” question should be ruled upon separately. ' White Tells His Story. Attorney Hanecy's objection came when Representative Charles A. White was on the stand. White had told bls story of the alleged offer of 11,000 to vote Jor Lorimer for senator and had begun to tell the committee that In addition he was promised a share in the "jack-pot" when Attorney Hanecy interrupted. Attorney Hanecy submitted' that tbe “jack-pot” evidence was Irrevelant to the bribery charge. Tbe committee retired to a private room for deliberation and after ten minutes decided that Mr. Hanecy’s objection could not stand. The deci­ sion is taken to widen the scope of the inquiry to include every action which In any way has bearing on Sen­ ator Lorimer’s election. An amended and much shorter petiHon, though much more comprehen­ sive in its charges, baa been prepared after a conference between the attor-; ney general.

These Clothes Look New as Long as they Last A suit that will look smart and hold shape until it’s worn out is worth 100 per cent more than one that looks shabby and out of shape as soon as the newness wears off. Isn’t that so ? Clothcraft • All-Wool Clothes will' wear out in time. But until their last day, they will hold their snap and thbir style. They are skilfully and honestly made out of nothing but pure wool doth. That’s why they last long and look well as long as they last. Each suit carries a Signed Guaran­ tee that insures you against disap­ pointment. And they cost no more than common clothes—$10 to $25. They are the ONLY guaranteed pure wool clothes at these prices in America, If every man in this town knew how good these wonderful clothes are, we would have to double the size of our store.

Cole's Hot Blast Bums any kind of fuel, wood, hard and soft coal or coke. Cole’s Hot Blast is world famous for economy in fuel. It saves and utilizes as a heat producer by­ burning the gases which are wasted with other stoves. The combustion is almost perfect and twice the number of heat units are supplied from the fuel consumed. , The heat is unifpnn; the rooms can be heated from two to three hours in the morning with fuel supplied the night before, and the fire is never out with any fuel from the time the stove is set up in the fall until taken down in the spring.

' Odd Way of Sorting Them. A railroad contractor who has just finished a construction job in Wyom­ ing told this anecdote recently: "One of my foremen gathered his men together at the section house one mArnlog and said: 'Boys, I’ve got a tough proposition on band and I want men tc^ carry it out. It’s no job for shirkers. The gang that tackles the work will have to sweat like blazes before sundown, besides being liable to stiff backs for a week afterward. I want volunteers.’ "To the amazed delight of the fore­ man all but eight of the men stepped out of line. ’Guess you'll find us on the job, whatever turns up,' remarked one of the volunteers. ‘We didn’t come up here to play baseball or casino.

Cole’s Hot Blast is world famous for economy in fuel. It saves and utilizes as a heat producer by­ burning the gases which are wasted with other -stoves. The combustion is almost perfect and twice the number of heat units are supplied from the fuel consumed. The heat is uniform; the rooms can be heated from two to three hours in the morning with fuel supplied the night before, and the fire is never out with any fuel from the time the stove is set up in the fall until taken down in the spring. If you haven’t seen one of the Cole’s Hot Blast stoves come in and let us show you and take one home and try it. C.

A few points for the purchaser of an Automobile to consider very ser­ iously. ; First of all, fully decidethe purpose for which you want an automobile, tile same as buying a horse. If for touring, buy nothing bulla touring car. If for general purpose, buy nothing but a general purpose car, the rear, seal of which can lie removed for carrying .pro­ duce, etc., but if a roadster will answer your requirements, buy noth­ ing else. In short, having fully decided what you want an Auto 'for, buy nothing else because it is cheap or because someone else bought " one of the same make, you will •never be satisfied if you do. Always buy of a firm near by, you cannot afford to wait two or three- weeks for repairs to come from some other state. . Nqver buy any thing but a car of reputation, otherwise you may­ want repairs only to find the company out of business. You are very particular in buying a mowing machine, wagon or watch, why not in buying ap automobile, the price of which is much greater? , NEVER buy a second-hand machine, the owner seldom knows the condition of his machine, much less a stranger, moreover, the guarantee is out and repairing certain. This alone would, make the di-fferonce. > Axiom. Buy an “E. M. F. 30” or “Flanders 20” of which we. have eight styles and you ar£ sure of all that can lie had in an auto­ mobile. ' • . Let me talk with you, then you buy where yob please.

DRUGS SCHOOL BOOKS JEWELRY Made by the Nashville School* the Barry County Fair Last Week. Winning 42 first premiums and 34 second premiums, Nashville rather took the honors in the school exhibit at the Barry County fair at Hastings last week, Hastings city schools trail­ ing along with 32 firsts and 35 seconds. Nashville was awarded first premium on general exhibit in the high school aba primary departments, while Hast­ ings picked first premium on general exhibit in the grammar and intermed­ iate grades. Hastings got ten firsts and 13 seconds in the high school ex­ hibit, Nashville taking 14 firsts and 12 seconds. In the grammar grades Hastings got-five firsts and nine sec­ onds and Nashville received 12 firsts and seven seconds. In the intermed­ iate grades Hasting* received nine firsts and six seconds, Nashville se­ curing eight first* and seven * seconds. In the primary • grades the schools were very evenly matched, each re­ ceiving eight first*. Hastings seven seconds and Nashville eight. When it is taken into consideration that Hastings has about three times the population of Nashville, has the j benefit of special teachers in several of the departments, and a much larger_ corps of instructors, with probably three times the number of students to prepare work for the fair, the showing Nashville made in competition with the schools of the county metropolis is one of which we may well feel proud. The Nashville schools are not only among the best in the state as far as technical instruction is concerned, but are.on a very high plane as to the character and personel.of its faculty, and the work they are doing individ­ ually and as a whole toward the build­ ing of character among their pupils is worthy of special mention. They would much rather have the work of their pupils take second position at the county fair than to do any single thing which would be dishonorable in any way, and this victory is all the more commendable on this account. Nashville has good reason to be proud of her schools. NEIGHBORHOOD ROW. About the entire population of the Stony Point ana State Road section was in town yesterday attend­ ing the trial of Morris Orsborn, in Justice Kidder’s court. Orsborn was charged with being drunk and dis­ orderly on September 29,. the com­ plaint being entered by James McPeck. Prosecuting Attorney Potter had charge of the prftsecution and Orsborn was defended by E. D. Mallory, and the trial was by jury. They were still at it when The News went to press, so we are unable to give the outcome of the trial in this issue. A PIONEER OF NASHVILLE GONE. Matilda Holler, a resident of Nash­ ville for forty-two years, died at her home October 5,1910. She was born in Newcastle, Henry county, Indiana, July 10, 1826, and in 1845 when nine­ teen years of age she was married to Philip Holler. They lived in South Bend and Portage Prairie, Indiana, and in Buchanan, Mich., until 1868, when'they came to Nashville. Eider Holler was a minister in the Advent Christian deinominalion, and im­ mediately be set about getting ap­ pointments where he might preach his doctrine and faith, .and he was al­ ways ably helped by Mrs. Holler as long as her health permitted. They together organized eight churches in Michigan, and their daughter Alice greatly assisted the work by her sweet singing, and going out to the sur­ rounding school houses with her father to his preaching services. Elder Phillip Holler died April 11, 1906, but theirs was a happy union, and all who knew them loved them. Elder Holler married over four hun- Our Newest Watch You have probably noticed by al! the magazines that tlrere is a new watch out.

Furniss dred couples in a few years time, and regretted he did not keep a record of all the marriages he had soiemized. Mrs. Holler,* better known as "Grand­ ma”, will be missed by those who had learned to know her character of love and peaceful life, but most will she be missed by the brothers and.sisters of the little Advent Christian church, which was founded by her beloved husband, and of which she was a faithful member all these long years, and has been a faithful friend to those who were burdened in any way, by her good counsel and the prayer that came from a heart of Christian love and many a mourning one has been com­ forted by her 'gentle ministrations. She leaves two daughters, Mh. John M. Roe of this place and Mrs. Alice M. Eastman Ballinger of Benton Harbor. Two little daughters died in infancy, and an only son, Christian, who married and died here, and was known by the older residents of Nash­ ville.. ajso there are four grandchild­ ren and four great-grandchildren Her last sickness was caused by a stroke- of apoplexy. The funeral was held last Friday afternoon from her । late residence. There -being now no pastor of the Advent Christian church, Elder George W. Linton of Merle­ beach, Mich, was called here to speak words of comfort to the bereaved family and friends. Mrs. Holler was of a retiring and quiet disposition, and has been an invalid for the past eight years, only-going out to church and to,the cemetery, where her be­ loved dead were buried, and where she too now sleeps, covered over with beautiful flowers., as she had often said she wanted to die when flowers were in full bloom, and her request was granted. Her favorite hymn, “Asleep in Jesus” was sung at her funeral by Mrs. Chris Marshall and Mrs. F. L. Niles. WOMAN'S LITERARY CLUB. The Woman’s Literary Club met at the home of Mrs. Lulu Greene, Tues­ day afternoon, October 4. After the business meeting the following pro­ gram was carried out: Roll call—“Echoes of Summer,” responded to by the members' telling lid* they had spent the summer. - Soncr ‘Americj.

She told the story “His feet firmly planted on the first round of the ladder.” She also told ns what other clubs were do­ ing, such as establishing children's story hour, getting city councils to have clean-up day, flowers for sick and shut-ins, classes in sewing, work­ ing for club house, etc.; and if we co­ operate we can accomplish what we set out to do. She said “what we do for others enriches our own charac­ ter.” • Club prophesy; by Mrs. Carrie Munroe, was both witty and unique.

Ever on top of a telephone pole and have it fall with you? Probably not. Ernie Appelman had the experience Sunday and don’t care to repeat it. He was working with a gang of line­ men for the Thornapple Gas and Elec­ tric Co., about seven miles west of Hastings, and had just finished putt­ ing a cross-arm on the pole, when he was told to cut a single wire which was still attached to the pole. He did so, and then discovered that the wire was the agent which held the pole from falling, as thfc pole was rotten at the base, and when the wire was severed the pole fell, taking Ernie with it. It fell away from the high­ way, and in its descent fell across a wire-fence, which probably saved Er­ nie from being killed. As it was he sustained a broken arm, several fractured ribs and was otherwise more or less damaged. He was carried in­ to a near-by house and later a livery rig was obtained and he was taken to Hastings, where a physician was summond and his injuries attended to. He came home on the evening train and is able to be out. on the streets, but it will be some time before he is able to resume work. LADIES* BIRTHDAY CLUB.

By C. V. GREGORY. [Copyrt«ht. IBM), by American Press Aewoc let Ion. J ■ O the young man on the thresh­ old of life the question of "What shall I do with my* self?" comes demanding an answer. During the past fifty years the call of the city to the ambitious young man has been Insistent. Today the country. Is calling for men with ambition and energy and faith tn its possibilities.. To such men It offers un­ equaled opportunities. The. opportunities of the farm are not limited In size or extent The young man with capital who is looking WITH A IXJAO OF SHKEP for a business opening finds It on the farm The farm offers him the opportnnlty to exercise his executive ability by managing broad acres and herds that number In the thousands. If his taste runs to quality rather than quantlty It offers him chances in the pure bred stock business for the broadest use of his money and talents'. There is no occupation more fascinating than the molding of living animals to make them conform to an Ideal of perfection. There la opportunity for long continued study of blood lines; there are months aud years of anxious wait­ Ing to see the results of the union of certain families: there are moments of disappointment when an animal falls to develop as well as expected. But greatest of all la the joy of success when the breeder's efforts are crowned with an animal a little nearer perfection than has been produced before. The man who can see such an animal march out of a crowded show. ring with the purple ribbon without a feel­ ing that a 1 least in a measure he baa achieved success hns ambitions that are Indeed hard to satisfy. The pure bred business hns some pitfalls, but to the man who enters it with gnod judg­ ment and an ambition to succeed It offers financial returns that i-an be ex­ ceeded In few other-occupations. To the young man starting without capital the farm offers unequaled oj>portunltles. The young man with a few friends and a reputation fcr In­ dustry and honesty finds It easy to rent a farm and borrow euough capi­ tal to equip It. There is a risk to run. of course. But what is a risk to a young mnn with strength and ambi­ tion? Well considered risks are essen­ tial to success In almost any line, and to the young farmer they are an Incen­ tive to greater effort Now that prices of farm procfucts have reached a prof­ itable level paying off the debt is a matter of but a few years. Buying the farm itself la by uo means Impossible, even in the most fertile sections of the corn belt. Hundreds of farmers are looking for managers for farms that vary in size and equipment to suit the fancy of any one. This line offers some of the greatest opportunities to the young man without capital. The salaries at first may seem small as compared with some of those offered in the city. Usu­ ally Xfiey Include board and Inciden­ tals. however There Is a better chance to lay up money on the farm at $50 a month than In the city at twice that amount. For the man who can "make good" the first year’s salary Is hardly an indication of what Is to follow Moat landowners are willing to advance the salary as fast os the manager shows bls ability. Better yet, they are willing to Intrust more of the responsibility to his hands and to give him more capital, so that he can achieve greater results. In most cases after a man has shown what he is worth it is easy for him to get a share of ths net profits in addition to his lalary. In many cases It is easy to get in on a partnership basis. Id either rase the manager is as independent as if he owned the farm, and the chances for ‘ financial success are nearly as great . The great advantage of a position of this -kind or. In fact of any kind of farm work la that there are so many chances to invest money as fast aa it Is made. The man on the farm hns a dozen । places lo invest every dollar. This In] Itself is a big incentive to saving, and saving means prosperity for both the Individual and the nation. The invest­ ment which offers the greatest returns i b farm land. Even in those localities where land is now’worth considerably more than $100 an acre the price HmP agents, but unfurtunataljr trademark to distlngntefa ui. ouiwr.rtK, tv b<w agent, leaving the investor a aadder and wiser man * Between 1900 and 1006 the average tacreesr In the value of the farm land tn the United States was 88 per cent. Between 1000 and 1810 much of the land Ln the western part of the Mississlppl valley doubled in value. With a system of farming that keeps up the fertility prices will go higher rather than lower.

Ita ranks are still far from full. The young farmer is not entering an overcrowded calling where he must com­ bine with his fellows and boost prices unnaturally in order to make a bare living. In agriculture there are room and opportunity for all. The country is throbbing with the vitality of a new awakened life. The password Is ambi­ tion. and the reward Is success. It Is nob the call pf money alone that La turning the ambitious young man to the farm. A calling that can offer no reward but a financial one is scarce­ ly worthy of the name. The chief call of the city has been the call of the dol­ lar combined with the call of the crowd. Better roads and a denser populntlon have enabled the country to offer a social life which is superior to that of the city. Higher prices and scientific methods have enabled it to duplicate the financial rewards of the <city, in addition. It offers to the young man the opportunity to live the broad­ 1 *est. fullest life of which he is capable. It offers him a business he can call his 1 own and an Independence which ho ‘ could gain in the city only after a life­ (time of toll. The greatest need of fmost rural communities just now is । leaders —men who can demonstrate on (their owu farms the possibilities of . ( scientific agriculture: men who under(stand the possibilities and the need of a. broader community life. The stories of some of the young men who heeded the call of the country and gave themselves to the deveb opment of their community read like ( romances. A dozen years or so ago a J little Massachusetts community was on 1 the downhill road. The nearby cities ’ had sapped It of Ita strength and rig. ’or. Injudicious cropping had taken " away much of the fertility of the soil, and the people had lost all ambi­ tion and were content to let things drift from bad to worse. About'this time a young man. a son of one of the farmers, graduated from an agricul­ tural college. He received a tempting offer from the department of agricul­ ture to take up work a( Washington A brother in Iowa wrote him a glow­ ing Invitation to come to the fertile lands of the middle west. He rejected both offers and went home The most optimistic resident would have laughed at the Idea of there be­ ing any opportunity there. But the young man went to work. He did nut lecture to the neighbors' or advise them. He merely set out to show them what the Impoverished land was ca­ pable of. lie made the old farm pay. and Its dilapidation changed to an air of prosperity. Ills neighbors gradually began to follow bls methods and to catch some of his spirit. The cominunlty started to go forward instead of backward As soon as he could spare the time from bls farm the young farmer set about reorganizing the vil­ lage school.

Never In his life bad Gormly been happier than at this frank, spontan­ eous expression of approval.

The complainants allege that on September 20 they purcha'sed of Mr. and Mrs. Shields-58 acres of land in Maple Grove township, receiving a full warranty deed for the property, without any reservations a» to crops of corn, potatoes and garden stuff which were on the 58 acres, which are of the estimated value of $500. Com­ plainants allege that Deller has cut and removed.some of the corn' he put in on shares', and that the Shields threaten to remove all- of the crops mentioned, including, garden stuff and fruit. They therefore ask that Judge Smith issue an order prohibit­ ing th? defendants from removing anything further from the property, and also to compel them to account to the complainants for what has already been taken. Colgrove it Potter and A. E. Kidder are attorneys for the complainants.— Hastings Banner, SUPREME COURT DECISIONS. The state’s anti-trust laws in no way prevent the International Har­ vester Co. from collecting its debts in this state according to another de­ cision of the court in the celebrated case from Eaton county wherein Judge Clement Smith held that a resident of that county need not pay an account due the Harvester company, on-the score that it is a trust doing business in Michigan in violation of* the anti­ trust laws, and therefore has po legal j standing to enforce collection. The! court points out that the Harvester company was regularly admitted to do business in this state, and declares that a person who buys goods cannot interpose a defence of the debt to the effect that the plaintiff is a combi­ nation in restraint of trade, except there, is an explicit statute to that effect.

FURNISS. __________________________________/ CLASS OF *70 REUNION. The fifth reunion of the Barryville Class of 1870 was held Friday, Octo­ ber 14, 1910, »t the home of Mr. and Mrs. William Strong. The guesu began gathering at an early hour, and the time was spent in remlniscenses and renewing old acquaintances, until dinner was announced. Each one was requested to find their own place at the well-spread table, and to their surprise they found the place cards to be post card pictures of their host and hostess. After en­ joying a fine, three-course dinner, the class gathered on the porch and lawn and a short business session was held. The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: president, L. E. Mudge; secretary, Anna Root; treas­ urer, Ida Strong. . At this reunion new faces were with us, while some, who have met with us before, were missing. Yet, we are glad to say neither death nor serious Illness has been within our midst the past year. Regrets from the absent one were read. • The following members of the class were present: Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Mudge, Mr*. Lacy. Hurde Hyde of Maple Grove, Mrs. Delilah Ware Webb and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Willis Lathrop, George and Mary Hayman of Barryville, Mrs. Anna Soules Root, Mrs. Cora . Hanson Beamer of Hastings, Mrs. Perm!la DeLong Flury of Brooklyn. New York, Mrs. Miriam Kill, Boise of Denver, Colorado, Mrs. Belle Lath­ rop Seward and Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Strong. After presenting Mr. and Mrs. Sirong with a beautiful, hand pajnUxl tray, as a token of love and remem­ brance. the club adjourned to meet next year with Mrs. Seward. SHOT OFF HAND AND TOES. The first serious shooting accident of the season in this vicinity occurred near Dowling Saturday. Reginald, the elev^n-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Mark Seegar. was the vic­ tim, and" the shooting was done by himself. His father and brother were at work on a part of their farm some distance from the home and Reginald was sent to take their dinner to them. He took a shot gun with him, and when crossing the bridge sei the din­ ner basket down and was handling the gun, when in some unknown man­ ner it was discharged, the charge tak­ ing off one of his hands just below the wrist, and also badly mangling one of his feet, two toes barely hanging to the foot. There were also several shot in the face, nrobably glancing there from the bridge planks. The lad washed off the blooa as best he could and pluckily kept on his way until ho reached his father, who hur­ riedly summoned Dr. R. V. Qallaher of Dowling, who dressed the in­ jured members and made the young­ ster as comfortable as could be ex­ pected under the circumstances. The folly of allowing boys to carry firearms has been expatiated upon in the public prints until it has come to be an old story, and all the terrible accidents seem to have no effect on parents of other boys, who seem to be sure that their boys are so much smarter or more careful than other boys that no harm can possibly befall them.

The high school foot ball team won the second game of the season Satur­ day by defeating the Lake Odessa high school by a 95 to 0 score. The home team played an open game while the visitors attempted old style foot ball. Lake Odessa seemed un­ able to solve many of the plays "and allowed the local back field to make Rains of forty to sixty yards.

Ladies of the Maccabees of the World have called attention to the confusion which seems to exist in the minds of the public op account of the similarity of the name of that order with the name of another fraternal insurance society for women. . The Ladies of the Maccabees of the World has absolutely no connection with the Ladies of the Modern Mac­ cabees, an order which is at present re-adjusting. Its management is and has always been wholly by women and its funds have always been en­ tirely separate from those of any other order. It has a membership of 154,000 wo­ men in 54 states and provinces of the United States and Canada. It is further distinguished from other orders by the fact that it is the original woman’s order, on adequate rates. The Ladies of the Maccabees of the World is not raising its rates, nor making any change or re-adjust­ ment. It has been on an adequate rate basis for many years. Its mem­ bers, both old and new, are and have been paying rates recommended as adequate by a competent actuary, Mr. Abb Landis. Although established in 1892, this order did not begin to work in Michi­ gan until- 1904. ks growth here has been steady, and it now. has in this state a large number of members, all of whom are paying rates based on the National Fraternal Congress Mor­ tality table. These rates provide for a reserve fund for the safe protection of the home without increased cost to the members. This fund, which now amounts to $4,512,561.64, is safely in­ vested in municipal bonds, and draws interest annually of $175,000 and over. Women who join the Ladies of the Maccabees of the World need not fear any increase in cost in years to come as they advance in years or pos­ sibly fail in health. Each member pays the cost of her own protection. • The following figures, taken from the Report for 1909 of the Michigan Insurance Department, and front pub­ lished official reports . of the Order, show its splrndid financial condition and substantial growth: The Ladies of .the Maccabees of the World.

None are such critical judges of a man’s capabilities as men of his majority over an opponent against whose reco:d nothing could be said. He has lived in Na*hrille over ten veers, has held positions of trust and honor, in none of which has he been unfaithful or .unqualified. His towns­ men are supporting him in his cam­ paign because they believe from his past that he will be a credit to them in the future. His boyhood days on the farm bis teaching days tn Barry county, hi* business days and his lift since have left nothing behind of which he need be ashamed.

HOW TO GET ON IN THE WORLD. Most of onr successful men began life without a dollar. They have won success by hard work and strict hon­ esty. You do the same. Here are j rules for getting on in the; world. 1. Be honest. Dishonesty seldom makes one rich, and when it does, riches are a curse. There is no such thing as dishonest success. 2. Work. Tne world is not going to pay for nothing. Ninety per cent of what men called genius is only a talent for bard work. 3. Enter into that business or trade you like, best, and for which nature seems to have fitted you, providing it is honorable. u 4. Be independent. Do not lean on others to do your thinking or to conquer difficulties. 5. Be conscientious in the discharge of every duty. Do your work thor­ oughly. No one can rise who slights his work. , ASSYRIA FARMER’S CLUB. 6. Don’t try to begin on top.

She was depended upon to make the different shrouds, as was the custom in early: days, and many are the dear ones that she has prepared for- burial. Truly she was u precious Mother in Israel. She was converted in her youth, ra« a member of the Christian church in Nashville for many years and re­ mained a faithful Christian until her death. She was a patient sufferer, ever for­ getful of self, not wishing to give trouble to those who so lovingly cared for her. She constantly prayed, as the end neared, that the Savior would take her home, and now the loving hands and heart are at rest and she has reached the peaceful home for which she has labored antf prayed for many years. The funeral services were held at the East Castleton U. B. church, Wednesday afternoon, where a large concourse ot loving neighbors and friends assembled to pay their last tribute of respect. The following selections were sung; “My Jesus, as Thou Wilt,’4 “Beautiful Isle,” and 4'Look Away to the Cross.” Rev.

F. 30” was $1250; now .......................... $1000 . The reason the E. M. F. company can do this while other companies cannot is simply this:. The output being enormous or more then any other company in the United States building a car of this size (according to official figures) allows the purchase of . raw material in enormous lots and strictly on a cash basis, having a capital of $7,000,000. The fact that the prices of raw material have been reduced although some companies are slow to admit it |in order that they may hold to the old price the longer. Then all parts are made in their own factories, being seven in all, doing away with the profit which other companies lose, who buy their parts-of different colnpanies,making them assemblers and manufact­ urers. Moreover you never know where your repairs must come from or how long it takes to get them. Last, but not least, you get a binding guarantee for one year and not for a season only as with other companies, showing that nothing but the best materials are used. In view of these facts we claim that no other company can produce a car of the same quality for these prices. A word to the wise is sufficient; buy a car of an agent, who is not only able to care for his own, but who can lend a helping hand to mi occasionally, thereby saving yourself much expense by way o 'arage bill*.

In other words he wanted to talk seriously about something of great Importance to him without disclosing that the matter was of more than passing mo­ ment. The opposition bad greatly under­ rated the character and ability of Gormly. The Gotham Freight Trac­ tion company, for instance, had poohpoohed him at first, and even now, though the public press was filled with accounts of him and his doings, they still greatly underestimated ‘his qualities. Haldane himself had joined in this depreciation until he had met Gormly.

Colin T. Munrb. By KENNETT HARRIS Mrs. Callonby had been pensively silent for nearly half an hour. Her husband, who was, occupied with his. papers, was beginning, sub-donsclously, to realize that she had been long silent, when she spoke. She was quite ealm about it There was no tremor in her voice. She spoke deliberately and in accents of conviction. "James." she said, “you don't love me any qjore.” . Callonby started. "Great Scott! How you scared me!" he exclaimed. "You’ve been so still I’d forgotten you were in the room. What’s that you were saying..” “I said that you didn’t love me,” re­ peated Mrs. Callonby, in the same un­ emotional voice. “My dear,” said Callonby, “I adore you. I’m simply crazy about you.” “You make light of it,” said his wife, “but I know perfectly well that you don’t. I'm'.not going to make any fuss about it, but I’ve been thinking seriously, and I'm convinced that whatever love you had for me is daad." . • “I’ll put the paper right down and talk to you,” said Callonby, contritely. “Tell me what you have been doing to-day. ■ What time did the girl go out? Have they got Miss Broton to promise to teach the kindergarten? Tell me, quick.’! “My girlish beauty has faded," said Mrs. Callonby, sadly, diregardlng her husband's jocular manner. “You never notice what I have on or whether ft's becoming, or any­ thing." "Nothing that you wear could be un­ becoming," Raid Callonby. “The worst combination _of color that was ever brought together would harmonize if you wore IL Haven’t I- told you so, often?" “Yea, ft I ask you and pin you down you generally say something foolish." said Mrs. Callonby. "But ' you aren't really Interested, Jamea Callonby, you would notice another woman quick enough." "Never!" declared Callonby, with emphasis. “All other women are to me as shadows. I have eyes only for you." "And as soon as you come home you stick your nose Into your paper and there^s no getting anything out of you for the rest of the evening. I'm not complaining. I suppose it's quite natural and what a woman has to expect, but there was a time when you didn’t want to read when you you'were with me. You really seemed to enjoy my society." "I should say so!" her husband de­ clared. “But not nearly as much as I enjoy It now. When you sit oppo­ site to me, as you were doing a little while ago. I can't think of anything more delightful. When two people understand each other as we do Our souls speech Is unnecessary. commune, as it were, In silence. I know exactly what you would say If you spoke, even while I am reading my paper. I feel your presence and it nils me with Inexpressible joy and content." "Especially if I don't talk." "My own," said Callonby, "your voice Is music to my ear. When I'm sway from you I miss it more than you would suppose. Honest. Mag!" "You don't love me. anyway." "Didn't I confess my love only a few minutes ago Don’t be unreasonable, darling." “Do you really?" "Honest to Moses." “You're just saying it because I ask you." said Mrs. Callonby. "It’s got so that I never know whether you’re telling me the- truth or not" “I always tell the truth.” Callonby ’laid. “T haven’t said a word this eve­ ning that wasn’t as true as truth itself. Except once," he added. "I told you that you looked well in anything. In a sense that’s true, but it did occur to ] me that your blue evening frock was getting a little tacky the other nlgbu I think that perhaps you’d better get a new one. But, my dear/ please don't be harder on me than you can help." Mrs. Callonby clasped her hands. “Do you mean IL Jim?" she cried, eostaticly. "And a hat to go with it?" Callonby’s face fell a little. "Well, I suppose so," he said. His wife threw her arms around his neck and kissed him. “You're the dearest, kindest, sweetest thing in all the world," she Bald. “James. 1 will take everything back that 1 said.” “Good!" said Callonby.

'Flanders 20” was *750; now;$700 'E. M.-F. 30” was S1250; now $1000 The reason the E. M. F. company can do this while other companies cannot is simply this: The outpnt being enormous or more then’any other company in the United States building a car of this sue (according to official figures) allows the purchase of raw material in enormons lots and strictly on a cash basis, having a capital of $7,000,000. The fact that the prices of raw material have been reduced although some companies are slow to admit it in order that they may hold to the old price the longer. Then all parts are made in their own factories, being seven in all, doing away with the profit which other companies lose, who buy their parts of different companies,making them assemblers and manufact­ urers. Moreover you never know where your repairs must come from or how long it takes to get them. Last, but not least, you get a binding guarantee for one year and not for a season only as with other companies, showing that nothing but the best materials are' used. In view of these facts we claim that no other company can produce a car of the same quality for these prices. A word to the wise is sufficient; buy a car of an agent, who is not only able to care for his own, but who can lend a helping hand to you_occasionally, thereby saving yourself much expense by way of garage bills.

"But what?4' said Haldane, flicking the ashes from his cigar daintily, and speculatively watching the blue curl of smoke that rose languidly from Its end in tbe air. Gormly thought quickly. He was not now deceived by the well assumed Indifference of Haldane*. He was con­ vinced that there was something back of it; that the relation of Haldane to the whole affair was more than a mere casual ode; that Haldane had not told him the plain, unvarnished truth "Well, Mr. Haldane. I will be frank with you. I not only intend to have my track connection, but I Intend to have the Gotham Freight Traction company as well." "My dear sir!" said Haldane gently, not turning a hair before this astound­ ing declaration. "Are you aware that the bonds of the Gotham Freight Trac­ tion company are two hundred and •fifty million dollars; that stock for twice as much more has been Issued and sold and is already at r premium; that It Is In the enjoyment of a nlnetynlne-year franchise with tne privilege of renewal; that its promoters In1 elude some of the ablest financiers In the city?" of public notoriety.

We wanted a better reason than an attractive looking stove, so we looked it over thoroughly, comparing it point by point with other base burners, and this is what we found: That the material from which it is made is all of the highest grades—the doors, mica frames and joints being absolutely air and paper tight. We were told the Favorite produced the most satisfactory results with about half as much coal as other base burners. We discovered this to be true. We found the reason to be in its Triple Exposed Flues. The sectional cut herewith explains these flues better than we can in words. The heat passes from the fire pot into the two outside down flues, across the bottom of the stove, under the ash pan, where it enters the central flue. It then passes back over the bottom and up the central flue to the chimney. Just think of this great radiating surface, and it is more than doubled, because the flues are SET OUT from the back of the stove. The flues therefore radiate from all sides, and the back of the stove radiates heat, also. This feature alone places the Favorite in a class by itself, making it the best and most economical heating stove in existence. But other features of its con­ struction must not be overlooked. Would like to tell y°u *11 about them. Do not put off buying your heating stove KjaSgk until the cold days come. Come and \NgW7 see us now, and our Favorite will be gHMK your Favorite too.' C. A.

Michigan Central GOVERNMENT BONOS E DoilfBurn Up YourAewDrels Scores of women will do it this winter, in some poor, old base burner; and they’ll get very little warmth out of it, too. Don’t you think it would be a good idea to buy a First Class Favorite' Base Bur­ ner, with Triple Exposed Flues, and save enough on your coal bills this winter to buy a new dress in the spring? It is a positive fact — the Favorite does burn less coal and throws out more heat than any other base burner made It took an organized body of stove ex perts nearly fifty years to perfect it There is no other Base Burner like it, because the features that make it such a wonderful and economical heater are patented. It is the most attractive and best made stove, too. In the Triple exposed Flues you will find one reason why it will save fully one half on y6ur coal bills. But there are many other ^ssgs&j, reasons—too many to mention here. zSHgttx Come and see us, and we will show y°u that there is no other base SMk burner that will compare with the Favorite. C. A.

The Farmer Republicans Loae In Nearly Every' State Except Michigan. Next Congress will be Democratic. and His Bank Account The farmer, more so than any other buxines* man, re­ quires the services of a bank, if he manages his farm in a systematic way. While he has no need for a set of books in which, to keep a record of every transaction made, yet, dur­ ing the course of a year he must pay out a large sum of mon­ ey for various purposes, and a record for future reference is highly important. Merchants may fail to give a receipt for cash, a neighbor may not recall the payment of money owed, but the farmer who pays his obligations by check has written evidence of such payments which any court must recognize. In the same way he has a record of monies received by the deposit entries on his bank book. To the farmer, who desires such a record fo his business, we extend an invitation to open an account with this bank. Four Per Cent. Interest on Savings Deposits.

VON W. FURNISS GLASNER ELECTED REPRESENTAT1VE FROM BARRY. Castleton Gives Aboat Norns Vote Except on Representative. . Jorlty far all* Parties. Election is over, and as tbe smoke of battle dies away it is discovered1 that all over' the battle-held the Re­1 publican forces are routed and scat­’ tered, Michigan being, as County Secretary of Osbprn puts it. "About’ the only rose on the bush." The sixtysecond congress will be Democratic by a majority of about twenty, while the1 senate wifi have but a mighty small Republican majority, if any. Ohio, New York. Massachusetts and New Jersey, al( Republican strongholds, elect Democratic.governors, and there are marked Democratic gains all over the entire country. In Michigan the Republicans still hold forth, electing the entire state ticket by goodly majorities, of which Osborn has the smallest, about 50,000. Frank E Doremus, democrat, ia elect­ ed to congress in tbe first district over Congressman Denby, while Congress­ man Dlekema has been defeated in tbe fifth district by Edwin F. Sweet, dem­ ocrat. All the other congressmen are republican, including J. M.'G. Smith of Charlotte. Congressman Hamilton has about his usual safe majority in the old fourth district. There will be three, possibly four, democrats in the state senate, and eight democrat rep­ resentatives in the bouse. Barry county shows a funny sort of a political mix-up, in electing the en­ tire Republican ticket by handsome majorities, and sending Henry1 Glas­ ner, a democrat, to the legislature by a majority of 740. We leave it to the people to figure out for-themselves how it happened, for they are the only ones who know. Sheriff ,Ritchie was re-elected by a majority of 733. Coun­ ty Clerk Thorpe, the jovial baby of the court house, goes back by a maj­ ority of 827. Leanddr Reams of As­ syria is elected treasurer, having a majority of 276 over Willie Payne. Register of Deeds Backus is re-elected by 659 and Prosecuting Attorney Pot­ ter by 710. In Castletop, first precinct, 443 votes were polled, only II less than at the presidential election two years ago. The republicans only had 28 straight, the democrats 154: republicans had 193 splits and the democrats only 24. The prohibitionists cast 20 straight ballots and the socialists 4. Osborn had 174 votes, Hernans 231; Ross, re­ publican, for lieutenant governor, had 215, and Williams, democrat 183; about tbe same vote was cast for the other candidates for state office. Hamilton had 215 for congress: Barnes 179. Vaughan for slate senator had 215; Field 153. Pryor, for representa­ tive, had 35; Glasner 392. On tbe county ticket Ritchie for sheriff had 221, Parker had 181: Thorpe had 220 for clerk. Boyes 180: Reams had 199 tie with Ptiyne. for treasurer: Backus for register of deeds had 214: Ray­ mond 183; Potter had 218 for prosecut­ ing attorney, Bishop 187. The bal­ ance of the ticket had about tbe same run. On the amendment there were 142 votes in favor and 200 negative. In Castleton, second precinct, Os­ born had 4J fur governor, Hernans 38; Ross, for lieutenant governor, 48, Williams 29 The balance of the state ticket had about the same vote as for lieutenant governor. For sena­ tor. Vaughan had 46, Field 31; Pryor had 31 for representative and Glasner 51: Ritchie had 50 for sheriff, Parker 26; Thorpe had 51 for clerk; Boyes 37: Reams had 41 for ire surer.

Nashville’s entertainment course for the season uf 191011 will open on Wednesday evening, November 23, with the Peterson Sisters Concert company, consisting of Goleta Gray, Fianiste and first soprano, M. Elouise eterson, violiniste, pianist^ and first alto, Esther M. Peterson, reader, mandoliniste and second soprano and Helen B. Peterson, harp-guitariste, reader and second alto. They give a mixed program of vocal and Instru­ mental music, both classic and popu­ lar, interspersed with readings by two talented readers. The Marshalls, dramatic artists, are the next feature, presenting one-act iyeeum plays. Their program usually includes three of these "playlets, j and they have made a most decided hit wherever they have appeared. Their date is Wednesday, December 14. The third number will be by Dr. W. T. Shermsn Culp, one of the most talented and accomplished humorists of . the lecture platform. He is not a laugh-maker alone, but his humor all carries a lesson with it and he in­ variably sends his audience home in a most cheerful and contented frame of mind. Dr. Culp comes Tuesday, February 21. Willard Gorton is fourth in the course, with an evening of clay model­ ing. impersonations, cartoons in char­ coal, art studies Id cloth, etc. His urograms are varied, novel, artistic, and refined, and there are no "waits.” Mr. Gorton's date is Monday, Mar. 6. The final number is tbe ‘Winifred Townsend company, consisting of Miss Winifred Townsend, Miss Faerie Townsend and Mr. Ralph Walker. Miss Winifred Townsend is a violinist of exceptional ability, the Chicago Record-Herald complimenting her as “a brilliant player with a remarkable mastery 6t tbe violin. ” Miss Faerie Townsend is a talented soprano and an accomplished reader. Mr. Walker is the accompanist and a baritone of rare ability, besides being a fine cello player. We look for this number to be one of the finest ever presented to a Nashville audience. This, the final attraction, comes some time iu April, but the precise date is not yet ar­ ranged. The price of season tickets for the entire course has been placed at the low price pt one dollar; students’tick­ ets, which may be purchased for any student cf the Nashville or surrounding schools, will be sold at half price, or fifty cents. The seats may be reserved for tbe entire season upon payment of 25 cents, and tbe reserve sale will open at Furniss* .drug store on Monday morning, November 21, at eight o’clock. Season tickets are now on sale by various members of tbe com­ mittee, consisting of C. M. Putnam, C. R. Quick. E. V. Smith and Von W. Furniss. The committee will make a canvass of tbe village, but they will be glad to have you call upon them at any time for tickets. - The exceptional merit of the course for this season ought to insure the prompt sale of all the Beason tickets the capacity of the opera bouse will permit, so it will be well if you make your arrangements for tickets as.soon’as possible. WOMAN’S LITERARY CLUB. The Woman’s Literary Club met at the home of Mrs. Maude Glasner, Tuesday, .afternoon, November 1, for “Federation Day.” Roll call—“Why I am a member of this dub? was responded to by twenty­ seven mernl>ers. Song—” As Long as1 the World Goes Round" by Mrs. Eva Hoffman, who sang in her usual sweet and win­ ning way. Report of the state federation held at Battle Creek (.Jctober 18-21, given by the delegate, Mrs. Margaret Shil­ ling, who told briefly of the principal speakers. among, them bplng Maver Bailey, Mr. Gage and others. The meetings were held at the First M. E. Church, a reception at the Althestan Club, banquet at the Sanitarium. The work for clubs the coming year as recommended by the Federation was a historical scrap book, waterways of our country, conservation, civic improvement, etc. The Federation voted in favor of woman suffrage by a small majority. This report given in Mrs. Shilling’s comprehensive waymade the dub feel that they made no mistake in electing her as delegate. Meeting adjourned to meet with Mrs. Lillian Gibson, November 15, to study South America. BE INDEPENDANT. There Is a habit common among the young men much more dangerous than it appears and which may lead to re­ sults extremely disastrous—the habit of borrowing money. It is a habit contracted with great ease and once started there is no knowing where it will end. A few dollars are borrowed to please some passing fancy with ev­ ery intention of returning the loan in a short time. But the thoughtlessness which caused the purchase of an ar­ ticle beyond one’s means likewise al­ lows tlie interval to elapse without any provision having been made to meet the obligation. Perhaps half the debt is ready but more money is bor­ rowed from another friend to complete thq amount, and so it continues indef­ initely. Soon a number of debts are contracted and however small they tend to burden life and make it tinpleasant and almost invariably leads to dishonesty. Young men with small salaries should by mH means avoid the habit. To do so will necessitate per­ haps many sac’iifiees, but no dangers are run In living within one’s income. And, beside, the habits of economy and frugality learned when the income is small, will Jbe^r fruit in abundance when it is larger. It is a safe rule in youth at least to “borrow not:” FOOT BALL. Thursday, November 3, will go down in the athletic history of the Nash­ ville school as a “red-letter’’ day. for on that date the ’’bloodthirsty” Hast­ ings high school foothall team went down to defeat by a score of 12 to 0. The game was called by Referee White at 3:15 p. m. Hastings chose to defend the south goal. Giddings kicked to Phelps, who returned the ball to Hastings *20 yd. line. Paskill bucked for 2 yards and then tried a forward pass to King, but this was intercepted by Giddings, who started for a touchdown but slipped after re­ turning the ball about ten yds. Nash­ ville’s end runs and bucks brought the ball to Hastings' 10 yd. line, where it was lost on a fumble. Hastings made 20 yards on a pass from Paskill to Brown. Hastings here tried some fancy formations, and after three at­ tempts to puncture Nashville’s line, lost the bah. Nashville tried a for­ ward pass, Giddings to Kyser, which was intercepted by Paskill, who ran 70 yards for a touchdown, but was called bacK because the ball has been batted before it bad been recovered. The second quarter was a repetition of the first except that both teams at­ tempted more end runs and line bucks. Only two forward passes were used, both by Hastings, for gains which put the ball on Nashville's 35 yard line. On first down Nashville, on a shift­ ing formation, punted to Hastings 30 yard line, where it was recovered by Kyser. Smith advanced the bail five yards, and Giddings tried for a place kick, which missed by only a few inches. The quarter ended with the ball on Hastings’ 30 yard line. The third quarter opened by Paskill kicking to Giddings, who returned the ball ™ to the veuver center ui of «« the uv>u. field. v.»ouNash-rille lost the ball by a fumble,^but soon recovered it after holding Has­ tings for downs.

It was my good fortune to meet on the train an old friend, Paddy Fulbright, who was bound for tbe same little town that I was, and best of all he was a brother sportsman, this helping wonderfully in passing the long night ride.

I have spoken of this place before but the scenery is so beautiful and the people so kind and accommodating that I love to men­ tion them. John Haskings, formerly 1 a Maple Grove boy, and whose father, now of Saranac, is an old acquaint­ ance of Chas. Putnam, T. C. Downing and other Naahvilie men, is here on a hunting and fishing trip.

I would say to my lower Michigan friends that if you should decide to castoff worldly cares for a time, throw all troubles to the winds, don't forget these people. . Follow the call of tbe I large fish and the wild deer, and if you get weary, sit down on some | mossy log, light your pipe and be the guest of a wild but smiling nature. i Probably many of you have heard I Of the great Colby iron mine. It was । my good fortune to camp with the discoverer on the very ground, when ' it was a virgin forest. He found the 1 lode and made it known to capitalists. One of them promised to buy it and pay the old man good interest. This same man put up the money and got ' the propertv. But poor old Dick was left uncared for. Three years ago, ■ when the writer went to visit him, he was living alone in a little shack st Ballentine. He was nearly blind and was getting his living from a generous county.

Co SPECIALS Tbe FAVORITE Being a Story of How we Were Convinced First, we were attracted by the handsome ap­ pearance of the Favorite, but we did not decide to handle it for this reason alone, although we decided it was the most handsome base burner on the market. We wanted a better reason than an attractive looking stove, so we looked it over thoroughly, comparing it point by point with other ease burners, and this is what we found: That the material from which it is made is all of the highest grades—the doors, mica frames and joints Being absolutely air and paper tight. We were told the Favorite produced the most satisfactory results with about half as much coal as other base burners. We discovered this to be true. We found the reason to be in its Triple Exposed Flues. The sectional cut herewith explains these flues better than we can in words. The heat passes from the fire pot into the two outside down flues, across the bottom of the stove, under the ash pan, where it enters the central flue. It then passes back over the bottom and up the central flue to__the chimney. Just think of this great radiating surface, and it is more than doubled, because the flues are SET OUT from the back of the stove. The flues therefore radiate from all sides, and the back of the stove radiates heat, also. This feature alone places the Favorite in a class by itself, making it the best and most economical heating stove in existence. But other features of its con­ struction must not be overlooked.

Nashville now began line shifts, and runs and bucks, which brought the ball to Hastings' 10 yard lile. Here the spectators were treated to a specialty which was not adver­ tised. Little Ralph Rogers, .who of­ ficiated at Hastings in the previous game, look hi* little whistle and pipe and said he would not act as umpire one minute longer. A gentleman by toe name of Erb was substituted for the much aggrieved official and the game proceeded. Hasting* held Nash­ ville for downs, after t*o unsuccessful line plunges. Paskill punted. Deller recovered the ball and was downed on Hastings' 40 yard line. Here toe quarter ended. The fourth quarter opened with the ball on Hastings’ 40 yard line, and in Nashville's posession. Nashville's backs simply sliced Hastings' heavy line and in three minutes Giddings was over for a touchdown. Giddings kicked goal. Score, Nashville 6; Hastings 0. Nashville received at the north goal and after seven play* the ball was.on Hastings’ 30 yard line. On a fake play Trautman skirted right end for a touchdown. Deller kicked raj. Score, Nashville 12; Hastings The game was called at lhe request of Capt. Severance of Hastings, with •I minutes yet to play. In this last period Nashville exhib­ ited tysr full strength for the first time, and clearly played the Hasting* team off their feet. At no time during this period could Hastings advance the ball, and when Nashville bad the ball their heavier opponent* could not hold them. It was simply a steady march down the field, line smashes and end runs following each other for goodly gains so rapidly that Hastings was bewildered and practically gave up trying to hold their speedy adversar­ ies. Too much credit cannot be given to the Nashville line, for in no game has it shown such remarkable strength, playing as one o man. • NASHVILLE HASTINGS ~ Position Brown L E Kyser j Feighner Castelein | Inland j Coolbaugh Rehor LP ( Burdick Tolhurst Deller .

The farmer, more so than any other business man, re­ quires the services of a bank, if he manages his farm in a systematic way. While he has no need for a set of books in which to keep a record of every transaction made, yet, dur­ ing the course of a year he must pay out a Urge sum of mon­ ey for various purposes, and a record for future reference is highly important. Merchants may fail to give a receipt for cash, a neighbor may not recall the payment of money owed, but the farmer who pays his obligations by check has written evidence of such payments which any court must * recognise. In the same way he has a record of monies received by the deposit entries on his bank book. To the farmer, who desires such a record fo his business, we extend an invitation to open an account with this bank. Four Per Cent, Interest on Savings Deposits.

With small pox reported in thirty localities in fourteen counties of Mich­ igan and slate troops ordered to act as quarantine guards al the state home for feeble minded at Lapeer, health officials in every part of the lower peninsula are engaged in a desperate fight to prevent the further spread of the scourge. Conditions at the Lapeer home are pathetic in the extreme, most of the inmates being children of defective mentality.

Two score deaths were reported there within a month and schools and churches were closed to prevent the spread of the’ disease. Dr. F. W. Shumway, secretary of the State Board of Health, stated that Governor Warner had agreed upon I the representations of Mayor Johnson and Health Officer Franzer, of Lapeer, to >order the Flint company of the National Guard to Lapeer to'serve as a quarantine guard at the slate home for the Feeble Minded. .

GOVERNMENT BONDS Don’t you think it would be a good idea to buy a First Class Favorite Base Bur­ ner, with Triple Exposed Flues, and save enough on your coal bills this winter to buy a new dress in the spring? It is a positive fact —the Favorite does bum less coal and throws out more heat than any other base burner made. It took an organized body of stove ex­ perts nearly fifty years to perfect it. There is no other Base Burner like it, because the features that make it such a wonderful and economical heater are patented. It is the most attractive and best made stove, too. jjgMBjB C. A.

FURNISS 0 Hand it to Maple Grove. That en­ terprising township will be the first in this vicinity to have a mile of stale reward road and we hope and believe that this will be but the opening wedge toward many more miles in the vicinity of Nashville within the next few years. The first mile to be built will be die mile running south from the corpora­ tion limits of the village of Nashville, surfing one-half mile south of the Maple' Grove-Castleton town line. The township board of Maple Grove made application through Chairman Von W. Furniss of the Good Roads association to the state highway de­ partment for this mile of road, and the necessary formalities have already t>een attended to. County Surveyor Cobb will make the preliminary sur­ vey next week, and it is lhe intention to commence active work immediately after the acceptance of the. survey. The farmers as well as the people in the village are taking an interest in the matter, and it is a sure thing that with one mile of state road as an ob­ ject lesson there will be many more miles to follow. ’ , There is noone thing of more actual value to the rural communities than excellent highways, and this commun­ ity, so progressive in other ways, should not be behind in this good Oork.

HENRY M. HOYT PASSES AWAY State Department Counsellor Dies of | Peritonitis After Illness Lasting , . but Four Days. ROUND OAK ROUTS WINTER’S RIGORS NEW IMPROVEMENTS A few steps forward in base-burner making, the first in about twenty-five years. They were taken by the Beckwith people, makers of that ster­ ling good heater, the Genuine Round Oak, and all are plainly visible and easily explainable on the New Round Oak Base Burner. ■ It is curious that among so many no one has ever thought of these improvements before. They make a base burner worth while, making use of that which, in all others, has been lost; therefore, a saving of fuel and more heating capacity than any other base burner on the market. Come in and look over the Round Oak base burner. C. L. Glasgow Washington, Nov. 21.—Henry M. Hoyt, counsellor of the state depart­ ment. died here of peritonitis after an Illness of only four days.

He held the po­ sition of solicitor general at the de­ partment of justice, in which he was succeeded a year ago by the late Lloyd Bowers. He was of the legal caliber which entitled him to consid­ eration by the president for a position on the Supreme bench. President Taft had an eminently high regard for Mr. Hoyt and he was placed in •he state department by the president to deal with some of the grave prob­ lems which are now before it IOWA MAN HELD FOR FORGERY Son of Justice Weaver Must Stand Trial for Uttering Spurious , Mortgage.

Much has been said about the high cost of living, its causes, and the pos­ sibilities of it* reduction. But ilule has-been said about tne most costly leak; the false economy existing to­ day in nearly every household. Much foodstuffs are bought with but one point tn view: ,"Row cheap can I gel it?" without e. thought of quality or "after cost.” One of the most ser­ ious is baking powder. Ry the use of perfect baking powder the house wife can derive as ranch economy as from any other article used in baking and cooking. In se­ lecting the baking powder, therefore, care should be exercised to purchase one that retains. its original strength and always remain the same, thus making the food sweet and wholesome and producing sufficient leavening gas to make the baking light. Very little of this leavening gas is produced by the cheap baking pow­ ders, making it necessary to use dou­ ble the quantity ordinarily required to secure good results. You cannot experiment-every time you make a cake or biscuits, or test the strength of your baking powder to find out how much of it you -sbpuld use: yet with most baking powders you should do this for they are put together so carelessly they are never uniform, the quality and strength varying with each can purchased. Calumet Baking Powder is made of chemically pure ingredients of tested strength. Experienced chemists put it up. The proportions of the differ­ ent materials remain always the same. Sealed in air-tight cans, Calumet Bak­ ing Powder does not alter in strength and is pot affected by atmospheric changes. In using Calumet you are bound to have uniform bread, cake or biscuits, as Calumet does not contain any cheap, useless or adulterating ingred­ ients so commonly used to increase the weight. Further, it produces pure wholesome food, and is a baking powder of rare merit: therefore, it is recommended by leading physicians and chemists. It complies with all pure food laws, both STATE and NATIONAL. Tne goods are moder­ ate in price, and any lady purchasing Calumet from her grocer, if not satis­ fied can return it and have her money refunded. Dasbwlk mdse. Co.

Henry Deller pulled the rooster’s tail all night, to keep him crowing. in' the third quarter Nashville's triple pass was worked for a 30-yard gain. It was the prettiest play ever seen on the home gridiron. On a dry field Nashville would have given a fine exhibition of the open game. Nashville players blocked -this year. Often five of the opposing team were spilled. Nashville’s tackling was sure death to the runner’s efforts. The line’s charging was deadly and spelled defeat for the visitors.. Waters is an ex-bigh school player of Lansing.. . Scheldt's tackling was the best on the visitors' team. Burgess suffered a badly sprained ankle in the last quarter and was forced to retire. R. W.

The Woman’s Literary Club met al the home of Mrs. Julia Marshall Tuesday afternoon, November 29, to study Centra] America and the Pana­ ma canal.. Piano duet—by Mesdames Sprague and Marble.

Solo—•’There is ever e song some­ where,'’ by Mrs. Lulu Greene. Central America and the Panama cabal—A paper by Mrs: Mattie Quick gave a brief account of the different republics of Central America, their surface, climate, people, occupation, productions, religion and schools. She said that owing to the fact that revolutions and counter-revolutions have distracted Central America for half a century the development of her natural wealth has been greatly re­ tarded. The people of Central America have been so long without hope that they need a helping hand be­ fore they can get a fair start.

Song—"The Star Spangled Ban­ ner.'' by the club. “America for the Americans”—A very original and witty paper by Mrs. Millie Francis, told what a privilege it was to live in this grand country of America. She said the Americans were affiicted with a disease, not lum­ bago, but oa-the-go as they were for­ ever going somewhere. She scored the American girls for being so anxious to gel a titled husband. She told of the large numberof immigrants coming to this country yearly and that they should l»e allowed a home here in this land of the free. ■ Adjourned to meet with Mrs. Eva Hoffman, December 13: to study Alaska. game to see the arrangement through tor the entire period allowed by law, so that,the - prospect seems good for Dunham’s mail to be delivered in care of the jail for some time to come. Dunham, who had been taken into custody on a body execution, had been released on what is technically known as "jail limits/’ meaning the territory embraced by the county lines, when his bondsmen. Hugh Cav­ anaugh and Lockwood J. Butler r sur­ rendered him back again in the sher­ iff’s hands.

The results merely confirm the opinion formed from previous con­ tests that the Unionists now have no possible hope of replacing tbe Liberal government In power. The only ques­ tion remaining is whether the Lib­ erals will return with a larger or a smaller majority. • Unionists Must Gain 62 Votes. ’ To gain a bare majority In tbe new parliament the Unionists must make a net gain of slxty-two seats. Thus far. with 130 pollings, they hare a net gain of only five seats. They have gained eleven and the Liberals six seats. A continuation at this rate of progress would fulfill the Unionist prediction that the Asquith cabinet would come back with a- greafly weakened majority and would be more than ever dependent upon their Irish and Labor allies. Parties Practically Unchanged. It must be remembered, however, that the Liberals lost at the January elections a large number of seats through three-cornered contests. Such contests are largely eliminated In the present elections, and this may give the Liberals sufficient gains to bal­ ance those of the Unionists. On the whole it seems likely that the new house of commons will meet with the position of the parties prac­ tically unchanged. The question will then arise whether tbe-king will feel justified In giving guarantees for the creation of Liberal peers to force the veto bill through the house of lords. SHERIFF KILLS POLICE HEAD WENDLING IS FOUND GUILTY Convicted of Killing Little Alma Kell­ ner In Louisville—la Given a Life Sentence. Night Sergeant French Fatally Shot at Cairo, HI., Following Altercation. Louisville, Ky.. Dec. 6.—Joseph Wendling was found guilty by a jury of the murder of eight-year-old Alma Kellner and bls punishment fixed at life Imprisonment. “1 either killed the little girl or I didn't," said Wendling. “They should either send me to the electric chair Cairo, BL Dec. 6—Night Sergeant Wilfred French was shot and instant­ ly killed In police headquarters by Sheriff Ab Bankston of Pulaski county. The sheriff, who had been arrested again and again for making trouble while under the Influence of liquor, fired three shots at the officer, the only one which hit him entering his back and piercing his heart. French fell to the floor dead. Officer Paul* who was standing near when the trouble occurred, knocked Bankston's hand so that the other shots went wild. He then knocked the Pulaski county sher­ iff down and overpowered him. As the news spread over the city an excited crowd gathered at head­ quarters. As a precaution against trouble Bankston was taken out of town. - Tbe evidence presented against Wendling was purely circumstantial. Since bls arrest and throughout bls trial be denied any knowledge of the fate of tbe Kellner child. Leaves $1,500,000 Estate. The estate left by Mr*. Mary Baker G.

Dec. Hard? N. Whitlock, county treasurer, was de­ clared short In his public accounts to the amount of 137,522.04.

Business ventures and investments had not been as successful aa he had anticipated. Calling his attorney and bondsmen together tbe treasurer sug­ gested that his private holdings be taken over by the bondsmen and that they stand such differences as might be shown until he could arrange to' wipe out the Indebtedness. This was arranged, leaving the politician pen­ niless and homeless and still with a shortage of about $2,000.

She came forward and began to repeat'her lines a* to a crowded house. The strange company ceased their prattle and gave her the most devoted hearing. They were about to give her an encora when there entered a dissolute-look* Ing youhg fellow, with refined feat- j ures, bleared by the excessive use of stimulants. Willie stepped forward,; and, calling him brother, embraced him as one does after a long absence. The younger man produced a bottle of champagne and began to treat all round.

VON W. FURNISH. Centrally located in the heart of the business district, in the largest and most conveniently arranged store in the county, is to be found tbe largest stock of desirable goods, most suited for practical., curable and beautiful Christmas gifts, with plenty of attentive, courteous salesmen to attend to your every desire promptly. This store is the longest store in the county, being one hundred and fifteen feet long and is packed from front to rear. Mr. Furniss we consider the best authority in the county on the many lines of goods he carries, as he makes a careful study of them, com­ pares all make* and qualities, and knows their relative value and prices, and is a- reliable source of informa­ tion relative to jewelry, watches, fine china, cut glass, books, fancy goods, silver, staghorn, ebony, etc. Mr. Furniss informs us that in the better grades of goods he has made his special effort this year and bis dis­ play warrants his claim. This year we find many new things that have been added or changed from the lines of years past. Among tbe more prominent are the new ideas brought out in jewelry, rings, fobs, silver ware, wood craft -ware, china, cul glass, decorated vases an<|ladies’.and gents' umbrellas; among these articles there has been radical changes. In years past celluloid goods have taken a prominent place, but this year they are more conspicuous by their absence and very little is to be found la new goods in celluloid, as it has been displaced by woodcraft ware, hand painted wood, silver backed toilet articles and other compositions much more durable and beautiful. It gives the public a feeling of satisfac­ tion to purchase goods from this firm because we hear tbe universal state­ ment made on the street and every­ where that we have heard shop talk, something like this: "1 guess I'll go to Furniss- because he has most every­ thing and I know if anything should prove other than what it should, it will be made right without any trouble.” Now these things are well worth considering when so much de­ pends upon the merchant's representa­ tions of his goods. We cannot name a fraction ot the many lines .to be found here, but the most prominent that impressed us was the splendid display of jewelry, watches, clocks, cut glass, fine hand painted china, silver wareo.' all kinds, band painted wood craft ware, a new line just out this year, beautiful vases, new line of toilet goods in silver, wood and paint­ ed porcelain ware, tbe largest assort­ ment of post card albums we ever saw. This store is headquarters for season able cards and there are thousands of Christmas and New Years cards in all grades. Books have always been a big feature here, but with more room this line has been greatly increased and you will find everything from childrens’cheap books to fancy leather bindings, besides popular copyrights and toys’ and girls’ books in Alger's, ♦to., for girl*. A full line of bibles, including the red letter series. Owing to tbe rapidly increasing trade in this •tore for good* of higher grade and merit, tbe toy line will be closed out this year, and the large assortment of eery desirable toys will be sold out at cost and le*a. This will" be an Sjortunity you can't afford to mis*. n't miss the Victor and Edison tatting machine department, which is quite complete in machines and rec rwiav this month been compelled to azsortm di completeSpace only Jorbida our giving b greater and more detailed account of this firm’* Shat f« Michi; NUMBER 17 NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1910 - KOCHER BROS.

This year they have installed a larger stock than ever of dry goods, cloaks, shoes, carnets, etc. and we are sure they cannot fail to satisfy you. We doubt if there is a store in the state which has a better reputa­ tion in its territory for the high quality of the goods handled. It has always been the aim of Kocher Bros, to keep their stock up to the highest point in respect to quality and there­ fore when they offer anything for sale it is safe to say that it is the best that can be had.

The square dealng for which Kocher Bros, have been noted during their many years of business in Nashville has won for them a splendid trade and they make it a point to see that every customer is satisfied, with both goods' and prices. *Their stock of cloaks and furs alone la a mammoth part of this dis­ play and well worth your inspection.

We feel that this is a pretty good showing for a new firm in a new business, but we are not satisfied— far from it. We want to do much more Tbe crowded east-bound train dis­ gorged two passengers at the little red station and then tbundbred on ita business in 1911, and we are going to work harder than ever to do it. We have learned some things during the past year, and we expect to make our ex­ perience of benefit to our customers as well as to ourselves. ■ DO YOU WANT TO SELL? ______________________________________ __________ ■ If you have a farm or any other real estate you want to dispose of, we want to add it to our list.

NOW IS A GOOD TIME TO BUY A bulletin, just issued from the United States Census Bureau shows that during the past ten years the average value of Michigan farms has increas­ ed $13 per acre. Farm lands without buildings has increased 33 per cent. In Indiana farm lands with buildings have increased to $75 per acre. Bear' in mind that this is the average, good, bad and indifferent. Farming lands without buildings in Indiana have increased in value from $32 to $62 per acre, an increase of 94 per cent. There is every reason to believe that Mich­ igan lands will increase correspondingly during the next ten years. In Iowa during the past ten years the valuation of land has increased 117 per cent, on farms with buildings and 122 per cent on farm lands without buildings. Can you doubt that Michigan lands are a good investment right now? Michigan has 3,000 more independent farmers, men who own and work their own farms, than she had 10 years ago. Indiana has 8,220 less and Iowa between 10,000 and 11,000 less. This shows that in Michigan people are getting back to the farms, which surely means that farming lands in this state are going higher. BUY NOW. Think it over. There is nothing so safe in this world as money invested in a good farm. It will never be cheaper, but is sure to steadily raise in value. NASHVILLE REAL ESTATE EXCHANGE, L.

Polly’s aunt, , who was to aqpompany the*** *>r the I short stay at Ferguson's hospitable country house, had failed to put In an appearance, and consequently had been left behind. That was vexatious. Then the train' had been delayed by snow drifts and during the four hours’ wait fn the cold train Polly and Der­ rick had quarreled. "Nice Christmas day.” volunteered the stage driver in his queen cracked voice, as they squeaked over the bardpacked snow. "Very!" returned Derrick, sarcastloally. There was a long silence as the strong white horses plodded up the steep incline of the mountain. Here the snowfall had been light and only served to dust the dark green pines and hemlocks with a white powder. They bad reached the top of a steep incline and were rotting evenly over a jevel stretch when suddenly, without an Instant's warning. the stage crashed down and precipitated the passengers and luggage tn an ignomini­ ous heap under the driver's seat “Are you hurt?" asked Derrick cold­ ly, as he assisted Polly to her feet "No. thank you." she said stiffly, as she peered out from the curtained win- [ j dow. j The driver was soothing the frighti ened horses and his nut-cracker face was knotted anxiously. | "Lost a wheel, by gorry!" he said. । ruefully.

Crown tbe Christ j±| Child King IT H Christmas Prayer ® THE PRINCE OF PEACE NE of tbe most famous cathedrals in Germany possesses as Its most sacred relic tbe swaddling clothes of the Infant Jesus. »t Is a sweet and beautiful possession which many visitors come from afar to .venerate. * One Christmas eve the sacristan was arranging the treasure confided to his carb, which was to be exposed to view on tbe great fete of the morrow. The sacristan was a little, hump­ backed man. bandy-legged and red­ nosed. and it was to this ugly person that the privilege was reserved W al­ ways caring for tbe adored relic. We must not be astonished at this, but must reflect that often the most hu’mble and unattractive are chosen to be nearer the kingdom of heaven. But. unfortunately, the hump-backed sacris­ tan bad no Idea that he was one of the elect, and the marvelous character of his task gave him no extraordinary emotion. During the 20 yeers that he had snuffed the aandles of the cathe­ dral, and been In doily contact with the treasure."-he had received no en­ lightenment; be never made the aign of the cross before touching the sa­ cred linen, and he treated it with tho same mechanical Indifference* with which he had hammered the-soles of the boots tn his former occupation of cobbler. . This day. on opening the cupboard In which the linen of the Infant Jesus was carefully enclosed, he whistled a little dance tune and thoughts “Vgh! It's not nice weather outside A violent wind was blowing In the town, unhooking the signboards of the shops, and making the chimneys shake on all the pointed roofs. The man. on, entering the sacristy, listened to tlib moaning pf tbe wind, and thought that the fury of nature did not accord well with the fete for which he was preuaring; byt doubtless there was a striking symbol in the storm, and the unloosed elements might calm themselves suddenly when the words of pardon and pity were said: “On earth peace, good will to­ ward men.” The sacristan went to put his coarse hand carelessly on the Divine relic, when an unheard-of event happened. The window In the sacristy opened suddenly, pushed by a -great rush of wind. The storm entered like an In­ vasion of the Barbarians; It rushed over ah In the room, knocking down the sacred objects, nnd the linen of tbe Infant Jesus, taken up in the whirling tempest, was blown out of the window. The hump-back remain­ ed for a moment stupid nnd stricken, then recovering himself, ho rushed into the -hurch, crying: ’ "Saint Joseph! Saint Martin! Help! Help! They have taken-the linen!" At this alarming cry the people ran from all parts. The priests In their supllces. the beadle in his cap. the Swiss with hi* halberd, tho qjd women who had been praying, ran with pale faces nnd terrifled eyes, and everyone cried out: "What are you saying? Holy Moth­ er! what nre you saying?” The little hump-back tore to the door; he seemed stricken with mad­ ness "The.linen!—-what misery!—the lin­ en! By the window! A puff of wind! Run quickly to catch It again!” Then In the road was sudden tumult! everyone b^gan to run in pursuit of the stolen relic. The noses turned up to the houses resembled notes. ofMnterrogatlon. "There! there!" said some one. "No, no!" They discovered It at last. It was ly­ Ing close to a crest high up on the roof of the church. One would have said that the fretwork column, chilled with cold, had taken refuge In the sheltering folds. "There It Is! there It Is!” Every­ one cried out together. But how were they to reach It? "It’s the sacristan's duty to go np; It was he who let It go." The hump­ back whistled no longer. Suddenly a courageous man came forward. He. crawled up the columns, he hooked himself to the fretwork, he hung from the projections; after a thousand perils he arrived at the place, and extended hts arm to take tho linen. But—at this moment, the linen unfurled Itself arid waa blown to a neighboring roof. People rushed to catch It; It waited until the hards were quite close, then It flew off to the other side of the street. Now began an extraordinary race. From street to street,^from roof to root the Divine swaddling clothes flew, pursued by the crowd. What a chase! The priests, rod with indignation, stifling, lifting their arms, crying orders, nnd gesticulating madly. The Swiss followed with bls useless halberd. The'llttle hump-backed sacris­ tan ran also as fast ns his bandy legs would go. And behind came the old women, limping, pitying themselves, and invoking the name of Mary. The whole town was rapidly raised by this great agitation. To the mad­ dened priests and the old devotees was joined a population running and excited. Some brought poles, others brought ladders, and some brought crucifixes, or sprigs of blessed box­ tree, with which they thought they could seize the lineu. at’racted by this hol^ magnet. Twb firemen soon arrived. Increase Ing the disorder of the strident noise with their horns and-the galloping of their horses. - But the swaddllng-clothet seemed to mock the priests and their exorcisms, the devout with- their crucifixes. tb« liremen with their ladders. Sometimes th»*41nen placed itself at the edge of a cornice and rolled itselft round a chimney. From up there an end of tile stuff floated ironically near the crowd, seeming to scoff-at it- And when, with difficulty, some one gained the roof, hoping to have caught ib—■ good-by! it would go further yet. with­ out any respect of person. After an hour of this game, it sud­ denly went away, and al! the crowd could see was a point of white disap­ pearing on the horizon. In a distant road, aright at-the end of the town.' in a sordid attic, a wo­ man was holding a new-born cfcild on her knees. She was contemplating It with a somber tenderness. . She cov­ ered. It with kisses, having no other garment to give It than ber sad lips. By the gaping window, with cracked framework and broken panes, the cold and the wind came to usher In a Christmas of misery. The newly-born was rigid and white, like a waxen Jesus. . My God! my God! had he to die thus, the Innocent—had he. lived only to suffer for an hour?. The mother got up and moved about -the room, si­ lently. fiercely Nothing—she could find nothing to protect the little body Ip all Its purity. She sat down again; she did not weep; tears are a luxury—even her eyes were parched. . Near her there was nothing but wind and cold; they entered, making a clamor like many wooden shoes They pressed close.* with their lugubrious and cold faces—bad . magicians coms to bring to the newly-born their gifts of agony. Christmas! Christmas' Ah* that Other that one .commiserates, that Child of Pep'.’■•hem He at leakt had straw In bls rredle, and the beasts around warmed him with their breath!

Never­ theless. he gave It. and there Is no genuinely vital Christmas giving which Is not in the same spirit. We would not for the world discourage the inter­ change of gifts which come to be cus­ tomary at this time In families and be­ tween friends, where such interchange Is prompted by the heart. In spite of the sham and the hypocrisy which have come to overlay much of such giving, the custom tends to the devel­ opment of the higher qualities. But this Is a reminder that the pleasure of the getting ready for Christmas al­ ways great where sincere Impulse ia made the guide among the shops, can be Immensely heightened by a getting ready to make happy some dependent soul which now looks forward to no brightness In the day. v Ito AH People JFJg He does not simply say.

Co Remarkably Good Showing Is Made In the Report of Postmaster Gen­ eral Frank Hitchcock. WILL OFFER AT Washington. Dec. 12.—According to the annual report of Postmaster Gen­ eral Hitchcock, just made public, an unprecedented reduction In the postal deficit has been made, without any curtailment of postal facilities. A -year ago tbe fiscal records of the pos­ tal service disclosed a deficit of sev­ enteen and a half million dollars, the largest in the history ef the country. In the space of twelve months a re­ duction of eleven and a half millions has b^en made In this deficit, the ex­ cess of expenditures over receipts as reported for the year ended Tune 30 last amounting to only 35,848,566.88. In view of the constantly growing loss on second class mail, tho report advises the levying of higher rates In such a way that the advance would be paid by the magazines that carry large amounts of advertising. This plan, Mr. Hitchcock believes, would soon warrant 1-cent postage on first class malt He again urges tbe intro­ duction of a limited parcel-post serv­ ice on rural routes, advises that the entire postal service be taken out of politics and all presidential postmas­ ters of all grades from the first to the third be placed in the classified civil service.

Two deer were the results of the Otsego county hunting party who re­ turned last week, consisting of Myron Southworth, Charlev Clay, Dan Curry and Frank ’ Whitcomb. They comprise four of about as good hunters as go to tbe forest and stream each fall from here. They speak rather lightly of the hunting ana fishing methods of the experts who so often write and talk glowingly of the adroit­ ness necessary to get in sight of game. Instead of care in even breaking of a twig in order to reach a view of deer, the hunter is more often aroused by tbe sudden advent of deer lhan the deer by the hunter, they giving nu­ merous experiences. A*d it trout fi hing, thiy find the flirting of lhe finny tribe is mostly in the mind of the fisherman. They tried the ex­ pect method, biding behind bushes and casting Hues over into the pools and all that sort of thing and failed. But when they used a stick about two feet l<>ng sod a line about half that, length and singly dropped tbe book down from the bank they vol the fish and easily bagged them. This method remove- some of the romance connected with trout flirtation, but Charley Clay says it got the trout and they made *umpluou* eating-—Char­ lotte Loader. The season on trout closed August 31. How about it? A.limited parcels pokt-for the rural m delivery route* will be recom­ mended by Postmaster General Hitch­ cock in ni* forthcoming annual re­ port. In announcing this step the post­ master general forese-er. tbe establish­ ment of a genera! parcels post throughput the country as soon as the postal savings system is thorough­ ly organized. As the preliminary step in the de­ velopment of such a service, Mr. Hitchcock will ask congress to author­ ize the delivery on rural routes of parcels weighing as high as 11 pounds which is the weight limit for the in­ ternational parcel post. This form of service, it is main­ tained, can be conducted with little, if any, additional expense to the gov­ ernment It will not require the ap­ pointment of more carriers, for those already employed have the necessary equipment in the way of horses ana wagons to distribute tbe parcels as well a>» the ordinary mail. Rarely is the latter of sufficient volume to taks up more than a small portion of the mail space in tbe carrier's wagon. A rural parcels post of lhe kind proposed, if successfully conducted, probably would lead the department to attempt a more general system. Mr. Hitchcock believes, however, that before the parcel service Is extended to the wnole country, definite infor­ mation should be obtained as to tbe nature and volume of the business’to be handled. He accordingly urges that, in conjunction with the experi­ ment on rural routes, a further in­ quiry be authorized, by congress in ’ order the department may be in 'better that position to develop the system 'on conservative lines. He ' recom­ 'mends that a special appropriation , for inquiry be granted at the com­ 'ing the session. . Every home should enjoy some of the luxury iesofiife.

A lamp stands for so much that is pecul­ iarly intimate and friendly. Its lighting marks the end of the day's work and the approach of lhe pleas­ antest hours of the whole twenty-four — when the old people and the young come together for rest and play; when neighbors drop in to make Lhe evening merry; when the labors and worries of lhe work-a-day world without are put aside for a time. Those for whom “the spirit of the lamp" has an appeal in which they would like some relative or friend to share would do well before going farther to look into tike merits and 1charins of the Rayo lamp. The Rayo, which is placed on the market by the Standard Oil Company, is a low-priced lump, but all-important advantages are claimed for it. Of all artificial lights the eye spe­ 'cialists agree that an oil lamp Is 'easiest on the human eye, giving the light that, in its effect on the optic nerve, comes nearest to the natural light of day; and lhe light from the Ray o lamp, while clear and bright, is remarkably soft, mellow and diffused. -The new burner with which this sea­ son’s model is fitted gives extra 'strength and prevents all flickering, 'so that it does not strain the eyes even iof those who are hitting far away from it. In appearance the Rayo satisfies the most exacting; its light-giving qualities cannot be surpassed. NEW FAIR OFFICIALS. The annual meeting of the Barry । County Agricultural society was held ;at the court house at Hastings and resulted In tho election of the follow­ ing officers; President—Wm. Kronewitter. Treasurer—H. R. Padelford. Secretary—George Coleman. Directors—John Hinkley, Hursley, W. K. Harper. In spite of unfavorable weather, the last fair shows a financial gain of $105/27, which goes to show that the new system of tickets is a big im­ provement (in the old “Family ticket," which usually left the society’ in the hole. The system used last year will be continued. Tbe total indebtedness of the society now is $900, which could easily be paid off in one year with good weath­ ,er for the fair. ' Tbe proposition to return to the old method ot holding the annual meeting nnd election of officers on Thursday 1of the fair was not found popular and was laid on the table. It looks now as though brighter 1days were in store for the Barry 1County Agricultural society, and we hope and expect to see the next fair 1one of the best ever held in the 1county. PATRONS REWARD CARRIER. Through an oversight the Banner last week neglected to say anything about the handsome manner in which William F. Clary, rural carrier No. 8. was remembered with gifts on the day before Thanksgiving. Mr. Clary found in his first mail box a live rooster. The next one was loaded with apples. The next one contained eggs. The one beyond contained honey and another rooster, but this one was dead Clary and dressed. Mr. then began to suspect some­ thing. A* he progressed along bis route he kept finding things, and soon he found he had so many good things that his vehicle was overloaded.

The spirit of the day is already with us, and while we are enjoying the giving and receiving of gifts, let us not for­ get those less fortunate. Let us not only hope that there are no kiddies in Nashville or vicinity who will be skipped in the distribution of remem­ brances of the day. but let us see to it that it does not happen. There are not many among us who can not properly observe the day, but there may be a few. Let us see that they are remembered. If you know of any such, and you are not able to look after them yourselves. If you will drop a letter in the postoffice addressed to “Saita Claus.” and giving the name and residence location of the family, with the names and ages of the mem­ bers, the matter will be called to the personal attention of some of the bighearted fellows of Nashville and we will guarantee that ‘ Santa” will not pass them by entirely.

This is as it should be, for Mr. McGrath is not only en­ titled to the office for the many years he has served his party personally and through his excellent paper, biit for the reason that he is the kind of a man who will personally supervise the work of the postoffice and see that the people of Charlotte have acontieuance of the splendid service they have had under the regime of Mr. W.

It appears that last year, public building bill did not carry with it a cash appropriation, its fulfillment depending upon further appropria­ tions. Now it appears the secretary has made no estimates to meet the re­ quirements of that bill and Chairman Tawney of the appropriation committee’ vows that he will not allow a cent to be appropriated without such an esti­ mate. In view of President Taft's public statement that he does not think well of either the public build­ ings bill or of the rivers and harbors bill, it is hardly to be expected that supplementary estimates will be forthcoming.—Charlotte Republican. OUR BARGAIN OFFERS. We want to call the special atten­ tion of our readers who desire to take advantage of our Bargain Day offers on either of the Grand Rapids' papers to the fact that these bargains will close on the days apecifled in the ad­ vertisements, jo you must not delay until too late.' Another thing—we can not extend the Grand Rapids Press offers to any­ body except those on rural routes. Thia is for the reason that the Press is delivered in town by carrier, and the Press desires to protect their car­ riers, which is perfectly proper.

Mr. Hayes studied out all of the .conditions and figured that the proposed orchard had the benefit of good air drainage, one of the chief requisites of any orchard that is free from frost. Then he nursed and cared for the little trees and the profits which he has received from them are a hundred fold.

Purity Flour grows BETTER as it grows older. The last you use will be better than the first, because Purity Flour improves with age. Fanners all over the county appreciate that-we were the first ones to give 40 pounds of Purity Flour in exchanga-for each bushel of good wheat. They never received but 35 pounds before we started. We’ve saved them 5 pounds of flour for each bushel of wheat they exchanged. That’s more than 14 percent. No matter where you live in this county, if yon want to ex­ change wheat for flour, remember you get 40 pounds to the bushel no matter what the price oj wheat may be, with no quibbling or haggling.

AT PEACE WITH ALL NATIONS About Real Estate The Nashville Real Estate Exchange has been in business less than 11 months. We started doing business January 24, 1910. Since that time we have sold 36 pieces of property, the aggregate price of which was $89,025.00. We feel that this is a pretty good showing for a new firm in a new business, but we are not satisfied— far from it. We want to do much more business in 1911, and we are going to work harder than ever to do it. We have learned some things during the past year, and we expect to make our ex­ perience of benefit to our customres as well as to ourselves. ' ; DO YOU WANT TO SELL? If you-have a farm or any other real estate you want to dispose of, we want to add it to our list. If it is a desirable property and the price is right, we can sell it for you, for we are getting more and more in touch with buyers who will pay the right price for property that suits them. If you want to trade, come in and talk in over with us. We are constantly coming in contact with people who want to trade for larger or smaller farms. Our services and experience are at your disposal, and you may find that they are of advantage to you. We will give your business our'careful and personal attention. DO YOU WANT TO BUY? Then you will find it to your advantage to come and talk with us. We have a splendid list of property to choose from, and if Vou find we do not happen to have something which just suits, you the' chances are we can find just what you do want, at the price you ought to pay. At any rate, come and see us and we will use our best personal endeavors in your behalf. We often know of splendid bargains, too, which may be sectired by a compara­ tively small payment down, with easy terms on the balance. NOW IS A GOOD TIME TO BUY A bulletin just issued from the United States Census Bureau shows that during the past ten years the average value of Michigan farms has increas­ ed 113 per acre. Farm lands without buildings has increased 33 per cent In Indiana farm lands with buildings have increased to $75 per acre. Bear in mind that this is the average, good, bad and indifferent Fanning lands without buildings in Indiana have increased in value from $32 to $62 per acre, an increase of 94 per cent. There is every reason to believe that Mich­ igan lands will increase correspondingly during the next ten years. In Iowa during the past ten years the valuation of land has increased 117 per cent, on farms with buildings and 122 per cent on farm lands without buildings. Can you doubt that Michigan lands are a good investment right now? Michigan has 3,000 more independent fanners, men who own and work their own farms, than she had 10 years ago. Indiana has 8,220 less and Iowa between 10,000 and 11,000 less. This shows that in Michigan people are getting back to the farms, which surely means that farming lands in this state are going higher. BUY NOW. Think it over. There is nothing so safe in this world as money invested in a good farm. It will never be cheaper, but is sure to steadily raise in value. NASHVILLE REAL ESTATE EXCHANGE, L.

President Does Net Find Our Army In* effective, But Says Thera Is Need of More Trained Officers—Coast Defense Excellent Washington, Dec. 19.—President Taft, in an address before the Ameri­ can Society for the Judicial Settle­ ment of International Disputes, gave assurances that the country need not fear the so-called war scare. >He said: "There is not the slight­ est reason for such a sensation be­ cause we ar* at peace with all the nations of the world, and are quite likely to remain *<k" Moreover, the president declared he does, not find our army ineffective and inefficient, though he said more trained officers are needed and that we ought to have ammunition and guns enough for ready use in cases Of emergency. "A little more forethought, a little more attention to the matter on the part of congress." he said.. "and we shall have all of the army, and all of the munitions and material of war that we ought to have in n republic situated as we are, 3,000 miles oh the one hand, and 5,000 miles on the other, from'-the source of hostile invasion.” Coast Defense Is-Excellent. The president declared the United States had excellent equal defenses for every important harbor that an enemy would enter. He summarized the preparedness of the country for war by saying: "We probably ought to see to it that we have ammunition and guns enough for ready use in cases of emer­ gency. We have a small but efficient aripy of 80,000 men. We have a irillitla of about 125.000 men. The army Is so constituted that we could enlarge it from a.skeleton organization into a much larger -body. We ought to have more trained officers so as to furnish the teachers to a larger body of men that war might require us to enlist. Navy Strong and Canal Will Help. "We have a good navy, and with the opening of .the Panama canal it will be a much more effective one. It could be useful to prevent the coming of on Invading army across the sens. "The people of this country will never consent to the maintenance of a standing, army which military ex­ perts will pronounce sufficiently large to cope in battle with the standing armies of the greater powers, should they get by our navy, avoid our har­ bor defenses and descend upon our coast. ’ If this leaves us In a position of helplessness, then so be it. For those who understand the popular will in this country know that it cannot be otherwise.” Dickinson’s Report Alarming. Washlngtc^i. Dec. 17.—Helpless In the face of a powerful fo«, with its standing- army about one-third aa large as it .should be, supplies lacking and military organization defective— this is the alarming picture of the situation of the United States drawn by Secretary of War Jacob M. Dickin­ son in his secret report to the house. The report, which the house refused to accept because It was presented to It aa a secret, has become public prop­ erty here and the subject of much dis­ cussion. It was cent ir response to the resolution of Representative Mc­ Lachlan of California asking as to th* condi1 ■’on of the defenses. Wants Army of 450,000. Mr. Dickinson recommends that the standing army be increased to a minimum of 450,000 men, that ther* be adequate war supplies on hand at all times for the regular and militia forces, that congress adopt a definite military policy and that a permanent council of defense be organised. A summary of th* report- shows that th* secretary first pointed out the toLal uu preparedness of the United States for war; the lack of guns and other supplies, and defects in th* army system. Tn my opinion this country cannot, so far as its land forces are con, cernod," continued Mr. Dickinson, "be considered in a stat* of readiness for defense or to repel invasion If at­ tempted on our coast by any firstclass power having th* shipping to transport and th* navy to protect the transit of her armed force* over th* WOMAN SLAIN, SEEK ADMIRER Posse and Officers Search Country For W.

New York, Dec. 20.—The heart and backbone of Manhattan island ware shaken, by a terrific explosion of il­ luminating gar, in the auxiliary power station of the New York Central rail­ road,. under construction at Fiftieth street and Lexington avenue. Nine pei^ons, two of them women, were killed, four others, who are missing are believed to be dead, 125 were in­ jured and property was damaged to the extent of 8500.000. Celling and windows in hospitals, schools and'apartment houses were shattered, which caused Innumerable minor hurts. , Four Die on Trolley Car. The blast picked up a north-bound trolley, car, lifted it In the air and sent it crashing down-upon an automobile which was passing on the other-side of the street. Four ot the passengers were killed and every one in the car was-lnjured. The actual, final cause of the explo­ sion has not been determined; but in­ vestigations conducted by the district attorney, fire commissioner and coro­ ner -made it certain that a leak from a tank full of Plntscb gas, used to Il­ luminate the trains, brought about the explosion.

The only Iffvreooe is that gasoline produces an explosive vapor at about seventy de­ grees of beat instead of about 121. Thrown in a hot stove, whether con­ taining a fire or not, kerosene will almost immediately produce the ex­ plosive vapor and then when the light­ ed match comes in contact, the doings commence. Unless death is sought, kerosene should under no circum­ stances be poured into a stove from a can. The taking of strychnine or looking down the barrel of an “un­ loaded" gun is much the safer. “If people must use kerosene for kindling or hurrying-up of fires, a small quantity should first be poured in a cup and thrown from that in the stove. If a blaze is then needed to ignite it, use long paper taper and keep at a safe distance when touching it off. This process will 'procure the desired results and even then there - is apl to be enough excitement for the average individual.” WOMAN’S LITERARY CLUB.

Freight on Siding Attracted Atten­ tion, Party Falling to' See Other Train Until it Struck Them. An hour and a half late, with a heavy train and two engines, train JOT, west bound, struck,a surrey con­ taining Lewellyn Lawrence and family at the East Sherman street crossing Saturday evening, smashing the ve­ hicle to splinters of wood and.twisted bits of iron, killing both horses, and scattering the occupants of the rig along the track for several rods. Mr. Lawrence was so badly injured that he died th* next morning in Butter­ worth hospital- at Grand Rapids, while Reuben, the eldest son, died in the baggage Car of the train near Hastings, on the way to Grand Rapids. Mrs. Lawrence is so badly injured that doubts are entertained of her re­ covery. Nina, the daughter, was practically uninjured, as war Elza, the youngest son. while it is thought that Fred, the other son, will soon be out of the hospital. The Lawrence family, who liveabout four and a half miles direct south of Nashville, in Maple Grove 'township, had been in the village in the morning and done some Christmas shopping, after which they drove to the home of Herbert Cross, south of Vermontville, where they spent the day. They were on their way home when the accident occurred. In the party were Lewellyn Lawrence, aged 49, his wife, Mrs; Della Lawrence, aged 42, and their four children, Nina, aged 17,-Reuben, aged 14, Fred, aged 9, and Elza, aged 8. The father, with Reuben and Fred, were on the front sent, while Mrs.' Lawrence, Nina and Elza occupied the rear seat. They had spent a iolly day at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Cross, with a party of relatives and friends, and on their way home were singing and having a merry time. As they approached the crossing, the warning bell was ringing, but there was a freight train on the stockyard siding, headed east, and the driver, seeing the headlight, supposed -that to be the only train to look out for. The street crosses the track, at such an angle that it is hard to see a train coming from the east unless.one turns well around to look backward, which Mr. Lawrence evidently failed to do, and just as they were squarely upon the crossing the heavy and rapidly moving train struck their rig with terrific force. Engineer BVC. John­ son, driver'of the pilot engine, had shut off steam and set the brakes, slowing down for the approach to the station, and had his hand on the throttle to open it a little after pass­ ing the crossing, when the rig flashed in front of him, the impact of the col­ lision coming at almost the instant he saw the rig. The train was stopped as quickly as possible, and train crew and pas­ sengers climbed down to render as­ sistance. The top of the surrey was thrown upon the pilot of the engine, where it rode, containing Nina and Elza, the latter being removed by the train crew after the train stopped, while Nina had evidently rolled off just before the train stopped, as she was found wandering in a dazed con­ dition along the train near the bag­ gage car. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence were picked up near where the acci­ dent occurred and were carried and placed in the baggage car. Reuben, apparently dead, was carried to the residence of Burdette Benedict, and Fred, unconscious, was taken to the office of H. E. Downing’s mill. The train was then backed up to the cross­ ing and the entire party was taken aboard and the train pulled down to the station. Drs. F. F. Shilling, E. T. Morris and M. D. Baker, who had been hastily summoned, accompanied the train to the station and did what they could in the line of aid. Dr. Shilling and Mrs. Baker remained on the train and accompanied the party to Grand Rapids. Several medical students on their way home from Ann , Arbor, and a trained nurse from the same place volunteered their services and were of material assistance. The injured people were made as comfort­ able as possible, but when near Hast­ ings, Reuben, who had not recovered consciousness, breathed his last. They were met at the station in Grand Rapids by ambulances and taken to Butterworth hospital, where the best of care was given them, while the body of little Reuben was taken to the morgue of Undertake'- B. A. Spring. At about ten o'clock Sunday morning, after having been conscious nearly all of the time after being placed on the train, Mr. Lawrence passed away. Mrs. Lawrence, who was badly injured about the limbs and lower portions of the body, is still in a critical con­ dition, but hopes are entertained df her recovery. Fred, who was badly cut about the head and otherwise bruised, is gaining nicely and unless unexpected complications arise will soon be around again. Nina, stun­ ned and suffering fromnervous shock, soon recovered and was of material assistance in caring for her parents and brothers. -Elza, the youngest son, was so little injured that be was not taken to Grand Rapids with the rest, but was left here at the home of bis uncle, W. G. Brooks. The bodies of Mr. Lawrence and Reuben will be held in the receiving vault at the undertaker’s in Grand Rapids, at the request of Mrs. Law­ rence, in the hope that she may be able to see them before they are laid away, so that no' arrangements are as yet being made in regard to the funeral. The terrible accident cast a gloom over the entire community, and Christ­ mas festivities were saddened by thoughts of the catastrophe. The Lawrence family is one of the most highly respected in the neighborhood in which they live, and expressions of sympathy and compassion are heard on every band. Nina and Reuben were students of the Nashville schools, and were warm favorites with teachers snd fellow-students. Although but fourteen, Reuben was in <-he ninth grade, and was considered an excep­ tionally bright student. Coroner Hilliker of Grand Rapids is conducting an investigation, says the Grand Rapids Press, and will hold an inquest, his authority coming from the fact that Mr. I^awreuce's death occurred in Kent county. He has sworn in a juqr, and will com*-to Nashville to Conduct the Investiga­ tion. The train was in charge of Conduc­ tor Clark of Grand Rapids, one of the most .careful and competent of­ ficials on the line, and it is said that in Engineer Johnson's thirty years of railroading this is his first accident of this kind. WHAT TIME IS IT BILL? Vtf ill Aekett was looking for a new watch for a Christmas present, but failed to connect. Bill’s watch is practically worthless, as far as keep­ ing time is concerned, because the dial is gone. Also all of the' wheels except one, and that won't run, be­ cause it hasn’t anj bearings. The way it all happened was so sudden, too. He was feeding the feed-grinder at Marshall's elevator, grinding corn on the cob, when he heard something ‘•zip.” That usually means that a stone or some other foreign substance has gone through the mill, so be started an investigation, which re­ sulted in showing that -his watch was missing from his pocket. Then he in­ vestigated the feed which had come through the mill and found various pieces of metal wnich looked as though they might at one time have been portions of a time-piece. He kept on looking until he had found what was left of the cases and the Elates, with one solitary wheel, which i all he now has to tell the lime by. The watch was a good one, 17-jewel Hamilton, in a 2o-year case, but he would be willing to trade it even up for a Waterbury in running order. CARRIERS REMEMBERED. The Nashville rural mail carriers fared well this Christmas, their pa­ trons showing in many ways their ap­ preciation of the faithful and accom­ modating service given them by the boys. Mr. Murray, on route No. 1, was the recipient of a fur robe, fur cap and fur gloves, which came to him via the Christmas tree at the Methodist church Friday evening. Carrier Wertz of No. 2, is wearing a •25 bearskin coat, a gift, from his patrons. Carrier Bassett ef No. 3 was surprised at his home Thursday evening by some of his patrons and presented with u handsome oak rock­ er, the gift of the people along his route. Saturday afternoon when Carrier Newton of No. 4 returned from his trip.be found on his desk a beautiful plush-lined fur robe and a whip for nis donkey. In addition to these, they have had various gifts of meat, apples, chickens, money, etc., which altogether makes them feel that the life of a rural carrier is worth living, after all, in spite of occasion­ al bad weather and bad roads. BLOWERS DE LONG. At six o’clock Wednesday evening a quiet but pretty wedding took place at the home of the Rev. D J. Van Antwerp, p-stor of the First Free Methodist church of Jackson, when Raymond Blowers of Brooklyn, Mich., and Miss Lillian De Long of Bettie Creek were united in marriage. The Rev? Antwerp officiated. As the bridal party took their places under an arch of-white, decorated with holly, a wedding march was played by Miss Myrtle Hall. Herman Sayre acted as best man and Miss Vera Van Antwerp was maid of honor. Many useful as well as beautiful gifts were received by the young couple, who are very popular among their large circle of friends. The bride for the past five years has been employed as book­ keeper for R. J. Miller of this city, and the groom is a prosperous farmer living near Brooklyn, Mich. They will be at home to their friends at their farm home after January first.— Rattle Creek Moon. A THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK. Another year has joined his shad­ owy fellows in the wide and voiceless desert of the past, where, from the eternal hour-glass, forever falls the sands of time. Another year, with all its joy and grief, of birth and death, of failure and success—of love and hate. And now, the first day of the new o’er-arches all. Standing be­ tween the buried and the babe, we cry, “Farewell and Hall!”- Robert Inger­ soll. ______ ______ MASONIC OFFICERS. At the regular meeting of Nashville lodge 255 F. & A M.

Farmers all over the county appreciate that we were the first ones to give 40 pounds of Purity Flour in exchange for each bushel of good wheat. They never received but 35 pounds before we started. Wefve saved them 5 pounds, of flour for each bushel of wheat they exchanged. That’s more than 14 percent. No matter where you live in thie county, if you want to ex­ change wheat for Hour, remember you get 40 pounds to the bushel, ho matter what the price of wheat may be, with no quibbling or haggling.

We started doing business January 24, 1910. Since that time we have sold 36 pieces of property, the aggregate price of which was $89,025.00. We feel that this is a pretty good showing for a new firm in a new business, but we are not satisfied— far from it We want to do much more business in 1911, and we are going to work harder than ever to do it. We have learned some things during the past year, and we expect to make our ex­ perience of benefit to our customres as weirds to ourselves. DO YOU WANT TO SELL? If you have a farm or any other real estate you want to dispose of, we want to add it to our list. If it is a desirable property and the price is right, we can sell it for you, for we are getting more and more in touch with buyers who will pay the right price for property that suits them. If you want to trade, come in and talk in over with us. We are constantly coming in contact with people who want to trade for larger or smaller farms. Our services and experience are at your disposal, and you may find that they are of advantage to you. We will give your business our careful and personal attention. DO YOU WANT TO BUY? Then you will find it to your advantage to come and talk with us. We have a splendid list of property to choose from, and if you find We do not. happen to have something which just suits, you the chances are we can find just what you do want, at the price you ought to pay. At any rate, come and see us and we will use our best personal endeavors in your behalf. We often know of splendid bargains, too, which may be secured by a compara­ tively small payment down, with easy terms on the balance. NOW IS A GOOD TIME TO BUY A bulletin just issued from the United States Census Bureau shows that during the past ten years the average value of Michigan farms has increas­ ed 113 per acre. Farm lands without buildings has increased 33 per cent In Indiana farm lands with buildings have increased to $75 per acre. Bear in mind that this is the average, good, bad and indifferent. Farming lands without buildings in Indiana have increased in value from $32 to $62 per acre, an increase of 94 per cent. There is every reason to believe that Mich­ igan lands will increase correspondingly during the next ten years. In Iowa during the past ten years the valuation of land has increased 117 per cent on farms with buildings and 122 per cent on farm lands without buildings. Can you doubt that Michigan lands are a good investment right now? Michigan has 3,000 more independent farmers, men who own and work their own farms, than she had 10 years ago. Indiana has 8,220 less and Iowa between 10,000 and 11,000 less. This shows that in Michigan people are getting back to the farms, which surely means that farming lands in this state are going higher. BUY NOW. Think it over. There is nothing so safe in this world as money invested in a good farm. It will never be cheaper, but is sure to steadily raise in value. NASHVILLE REAL ESTATE EXCHANGE, L.

In preparing this paper 1 have tried to write something that will interest you all, but 1 Uiink I have a rather big undertaking on-band to try and divide the apple between the husband and lire wife.. Eor, if I -ay too much in favor of the husbands, I rill get the wives after me; and if I say too much In favor of the wives, I will get the husbands after me, so I do not know whether I will get out ali-ze or not. However, along toward the last oT this paper I will try and get under cover somewhere, and divide the apple in such a way that you will agree with me, that it is the only way it can be divided to bring about the happiest results. Now, first, I am going -to tell you how I would divide ft, then how it has been divided, then how 1 think it should be divided, and finally that it will take two people to divide it and divide it right. . After thinking, ft over, I have de­ cided that if I bad the dividing of the apple, I would give ihe husband the core and (reeling and keep the rest. I will leave it to the wives here today If that isn’t the right way to divide it, but I will be willing to bet almost any­ thing that every, wife here divides ft just tbe other way. She keeps the core and peeling and gives the hus­ band tbe rest of the apple. Of course she gets two shares, but we all know that the other share is the best. I think I mentioned in one of my papers at a previous meeting of our club that there were 10,000 wotnen in New York City who were supporting their bus­ bands. . I don't believe we need go as find some right here in Bellevue, or Nashville, or Battle Creek. They are the wives who are getting tbe core and the peeling. I suppose that the first apple was divided equally between the first hus­ band and wife-. Anyway they both re­ ceived the same punishment, for both were driven out of the garden of Eden. So we will say that the apple should lie divided equally between tbe hus­ band and the wife: that they, should always share the same privileges, the same pleasures and joys, and the same pocketbook. Of course we can't leave out tbe pocketbook, as on that depends the happiness of the-family, .of the wife, anyway, for you know she is a great spendthrift. She has Wen ac­ cused of throwing more out of the window with a spoon than thehusband can bring in the door on a shovel. But it has ever been thus, from the time of Adam and Eve down to the present time. If a husband goes wrong, does wrong, fails in business, commits suicide, or does anything that isn't right, the wife,is at the bot­ tom of it. That is the way the apple has been divided for them (the wives .1 mean.) As 1 am talking to farmers’ wives today. I can’t very well leave them out. On the farm, when it comes to the money question, the husbands do not have much to say as to how the apple shall be divided: the wife just takes all the egg money, and butler money, and poultry money, and any other money she can get hold of. He, the husband, may kick sometimes about its taking so much grain to feed the poultry, but if he know-* when he is well offi he will keep still, for some time when he is away, sfee will steal some of his grain to feed the poultry. Why. 1 have done that myself, actual­ ly stolen some of my husband’s grain to feed my chickens. Now every American wife is born with the true spirit of American inde]>endence and does riot like to be for­ ever asking her husband for money. So, all over the country, in tbe cities and towns, you will find her looking for ways and means by which she can earn a few pennies she can call her own and spend without her husband dictating bow she shall spend it. In some homes there are two pocketbook?:' in others there is but one. At our house there are two, for I am one of those wives that hr*ve the true spirit, of independence, and do not like to be forever asking my husband formoney and have him say, "Why, where is that five cents I gave you just the other dav?” ' Now I have noticed (I don’t know whether I dare say it or not, but I see tbe husbands are all looking pretty good natured, so I will venture) that the busbands have a wav of dividing the apple about to suit themselves: some divide ft one way, some another, and some run away with tbe whole apple. You want to know how that can be? Why, in every daily paper you pick up you can read of wives seeking a divorce for non-support, their husband." having run away with the whole apple. Now this particular apple (we will suppose the fruit was an apple, al­ though I don’t think it was mentioned as such in the beginning) has been tbe cause of a great deal of trouble. It is responsible for all tbe sorrow, troubles, trials, temptation, tribula­ tion, sin and death that is in the world today, ail brought about by an act oi disot»edienee by our first par­ ents. And since it has brought us sin, sorrow and death, and death is ahead of all of us, there is only one way for us to do, try to make the best of the life that has been given us, and try and feel that it is better to have lived than hot to have lived at all. And as I said before, it will take two people to divide the apple so as to bring about the hapoiest results— the husband and the wife. Let them divide it in such a way that tbeir home will be the brightest and happiest spot on earth, where they had rather be than anywhere else, perfectly satis­ fied with each other and their sur­ roundings. It will be of interest to the many friends of Mr. and Mrs. E. D. Whit­ comb, who are now living in Milwau­ kee, to learn that Mr. Whitcomb has recovered from a serious operation, which he was obliged to undergo at St. Mary’s hospital, and expects to be able to resume his duties this week as claim agent of the Milwaukee Elec­ tric Railway and Lighting Co.
