Miss Norris, that While we regret to lose your valuable services we are glad to know you are securing n position better suited—toer—your tastes and abilities. 1 trust you will not forget—us?" Tbe gray eyes were looking most pleadingly tnto hers. The flush crept closer and closer to tbe soft brown hair. ’ , “I am afraid I’ve been very rude sometimes.

Miss Alice Currer, Henry Currer and Michael Doherty are the names of tbe debaters from the high school of .LaSueUr, Minn., who have twice won the championship cup of the third congres­ sional district, and their next step will be to meet some team in another oongressional district.

In tbe last debate they had the affirmative side in tbe question, “Resolved, That capital punishment should be abolished.” F. L. Bauer, formerly of thlscity, is the superintend­ ent of 'the L&Sueur schools and the News of that place in speaking of the recent contest pays a high tribute to him. as follows: “Prof. Bauer is to be congratulated on the success1 he made of defending tbe championship with his class. His unceasing labor and deter­ mination to succeed if within the reach of bls team is the keynote of tbe proud honor now so modestly worn by himself and class.” The Herald also desires to congratulate Mr. Bauer, and hopes that the red and blue (the class color^) will predominate in the state contest. .

Democratic BBBators say they will require several weeks’ mor* time in nhich to consid­ er the measure. Senator Lodge, chair­ man of the committee having the bill in charge, has not failed to Impress upon them his intention of pressing it with the utmost dispatch. Several Democratic senators will speak on tbe bill. ' Senator QuAles will report the per­ manent census bill this afternoon. He hopes the bill may be. passed without much delay. The irrigation bill also occupies a place of vantage on tbe sen­ ate calendar. Owing to the*absence of many Re­ publicans who will attend celebrations of Lincoln's birthday Wednesday con­ sideration of the bill to repeal the war taxes will be postponed by the house until next week. Tuesday considera­ tion of the oleomargarine bill will be resumed. The passage of the bill is considered to be assured. . London.

Children’s ’ Eyes Ai the Most Neglect­ ed of Any. Their age precludes the knowledge necessary to judge for themselves if their eye sight is good or.bad. Every-child should have his or her eyes examined by a competent optician. If a child fails to meet the expected requirements in his studiesr it should not be ‘ the eyes will vision. permit good Many a child is condemned as indolent and not studious when the fact is they are un­ able to study on account of defective vision. Hypermetropia and My­ opia are the most common er­ rors of visionWound in child­ rens eyes; vision in both eyes may not be alike; they may receive on the retina different sized images of the object looked at, thus producing con­ fusion and to overcome this, one eye is closed or madeigb* livious to objects and* flfen crossed eyes are a result.™ If properly corrected with spec­ tacles this may be avoided In most all cases. UeZlZ No greater error can be committed than to expect that every childs eyes are good. Not only is it the parents’ duty% to know that the child has good vision, but it should be the duty of every teacher to watch carefully for any in­ dication of lack of good vision. Every school room should con­ tain a chart of letters graded in sizes to correspond to test of normal vision, and teachers should use it in every case where they suspect the exist­ ence of eye trouble. If a child of yours com­ plains that he cannot see dear-, ly, that he has dull pains in the region or the eye, or that he is subject to headache, or if his eyelids droop, oj he looks at objects sideways or through partially closed eyes, he is suf­ fering some defect of vision. Udlili* The examinatiou of child­ ren's eyes calls for special tact as well as professional skill. If they do not need glasses I will cheerfully tell yon so. F.

The famous Battle Creek Seventh Day Adventist sanitarium, the largest of its kind in the world, was totally destroyed by fire early Tuesday morn­ ing, together with the mammoth fivestory hospital, Salisbury cottage, Orig­ inal Health Institute, Wood's tonsorlal establishment and other smaller build­ ings. The lota will be between 8400,­ 000 and 8500,000: insurance, 8156,000. Loes to guests estimated at 8200,000. At first it was stated that the 300 patients and hosts of physicians, nurses und other persons connected with the institution had escaped, but it is now thought that st least on6 person, Abner Case of Bath, N.

Mrs. H. C. Daniels of Eldorado. Kas.. jumped from the fourth story of the hospital and escaped with only the fracture of her right leg. Several fire­ men were also injured.

Washington, Feb. 17.—During th*consideration of the census bill by the senate Saturday that body became muddled over a series of amendments which caused a great deal of laughter on the part of the senators and the occupants of tbe galleries. The bill, as reported to the senate, required that all employes ot the census office above the grade of skilled laborer should be covered under the civil service rules. This was considered an unjust dis­ crimination against the skilled labor­ ers and an effort Was made to amend the bill so as to place them under the civil service blanket. Senator Lodge said this could be done by eliminating the word skilled, but his colleagues did not agree with him and an amendment was proposed and adopted which every oue believed brought about the result desired. It was soon discovered that this amendment did not produce the end desired. This occurred several times and finally Senator Tillman asked the presiding officer if it would not be well to adjourn, as the senate was bo mud­ dled It could not pass a civil service examination and the senators would not be eligible for reflection. Senator Frye said: “The chair is ic doubt and refers the matter to the senate.” After several more efforts Senator McComas of Maryland finally drafted an amendment which covered the point.

When you notice a tend­ ency to hold things far away, have your eyes examined; pos­ sibly a pair of spectacles will make the world look new to. you, or a change in the ones you already have will work wonders for your vision. As a rule spectacles for old sight require changing every three years, but it is de­ sirable that the sight should be carefully tested every two years. The above has applied to eye- troubles that come with advancing age and are the eas­ ier cases to fit and give much satisfaction to the wearer. ' There are other cases more difficult requiring more skill,1 better instruments, and compli­ cated lenses to give good vision. These cases are the ones an optician takes pleasure in correcting.

To treat this subject properly would require much more time- than is al­ lotted me here bo I can only touch upon a few features that suggest themselves tome. To improve the fair means a Mr. Paton was a man of attfet Integ­ rity and much respected -by ail who knew him, and in this vicinity he was well known. In politics he was a dem­ ocrat, never sought o®oe, never want­ ed It, but about ten years ago against his wishes was elected highway com­ missioner of Hastings township, which office he filled with credit to himself and the town, but refused further fav­ ors from the party. ' Several yean ago Mr. Paton was thrown out of a wagon and it is thought that possibly he received an injury at that time which caused his demise, al­ though nothing was thought of it then. On Saturday, Feb. 15, he suffered a stroke of paralysis, and it kept getting worse. From Tuesday, the 18th, it is believed that he never fully realized anything and the angel of deatn came peacefully and quietly took him away Sunday morning at 5:00 o’clock. His brother David and sister, Miss Julia, and many relatives are left to mourn tbeir lore. ‘ ' The funeral services were held Tues­ day afternoon at 1:30 o'clock, from the house, under the auspices of Hastings Lodge, No. 62, F. and A. M., of which deceased was a beloved member. Bev. Geo. Bullen conducted the services at the house and the Masonic fraternity their beautiful service at the grave in the Sponable cemetery where the re­ mains were laid at rest until the divine lodge calls him home.

' For several months it has been re­ more* that the iron work* in this city would be removed to Battle Creek. It Is no longer a rumor but a reality. Last Thursday the Battle Creek Iron Works Company, limited, with a capi­ tal of MOO,006 was organized, and Fri­ day articles ot association were filed with tbe register of deeds in Calhoun county. Of the capital *301,000 is paid in and the stock was all subscribed within three days. The officers of the association are: Chairman, Philip T. Colgrove, Hastings; secretary, Sylves­ ter Greuse), Hastings; treasurer, Miles S. Curtis, Battle Creek; managers, Judge Clement Smith of Hastings and Frank Bock of Battle Creek. The company have purchased the iron works in this city and will continue business here until new buildings are ready for occupancy, which will be about June 1, and then the machinery, patterns, etc., will be taken to Battle Creek. The citizens of Hastings who are in­ terested Ln the Battle.Creek iron works are P. T. Colgrove, Clement Smith, Sylvester Greuse!, W. W. Potter, and H. H. Burns, and several prominent capitalists from tbe southern part of the county are also interested. The Herald, on account of several unavoidable reasons, has been unable to See Mr. Colgrove, bvt we are in­ formed that he has purchased a resi­ dence in Battle Creek and will in tbe course of several weeks open one of the nicest law offices * in the state in that city. H. H. Burns, a fine machinist Mud in­ ventor of an automatic machine which does the labor of many mashiues, will be superintendent of the machine shops. Nearly all of the hands now employed here will remove to Battle Creek and work for the new company, which Is expected to employ 100 men on the start. . It has also been intimated that the firm of Colgrove A Potter would also leave the city. Mr. Potter stated to tbe Herald yesterday that be did not desire to make such a statement at the present time, as tbe matter had not been fully decided, and that he might stay here. The removal of the iron works, and the men It takes with it, is certainly to be regretted. They will be missed, but we hope the new field will produce a rich harvest for them. It behooves Hastings enterprize to wake up and reach out tor something to fill the place to be made vacant. And that being filled, to keep on reach­ ing out and secure new institutions. It can be done, but the whole people will' have to assist, the same aa they did in ; securing what we now have. There are plenty of solid institutions looking for locations, but capital cannot be pinched too tight and, secure them. OoL William K.

INTERESTING LETTER FROM FORMER HASTINGS BOY Description of His Trip to California and the Sight* Since His Arrival There. Presidio, Cat, Sat. Feb. 22, ’02. Back in the army again, I find my­ self. filled with literary longings, and^ unable to resist the desire to in flic t them upon the long suffering reading public of Barry county; hence the fol­ lowing. Have been in the service just one month today, and a great deal has transpired that I think will be of inter­ est. We left Grand Rapids, my brother Chester, two other Hastings boys, Roy Robinson, Philip Palmatier and I, on the evening of the 24th of January, arriving in Chicago early the next morning, where we reported to the recruiting officer at No. 82 Madison street, and were given subsistence for the day. The boys, none of them seemed to fall in love with Chicago, it was too windy and noisy. Didn’t get to enjoy my stay there, as I was kept pretty, busy, reporting first to the commander of the department of the lakes and then in turn to his chief quartermaster and chief commissary, obtaining the transportation and sub­ sistence for myself and the nine other recruits, who were all placed in my charge there. I will say, however, that the corner of Madison, Dearborn, Adams and State streets are about the most cluttered up and crowded of any corner I ever saw. Caught just one glimpse of Admiral Schley as he bowing and smiling to an enormous, enthusiastic crowd which surrounded bis carriage upon its way to an hotel. Leaving Chicago the night of the 25th we had an uneventful trip across the continent, creasing over the Chicago& Northwestern to Omaha; then the Union & Pacific to /Dgden, Utah; from thence here via the Southern Pacific. But very little snow in the plain states, but extremely cold in Wyoming. So many Items of interest happened en route that have slipped my memory, now that I shall not attempt to but touch upon them. The great fences had the boys puz­ zled until some enlightened traveler told them they were to cause the snow to drift alongside them and not on the tracks. Passed through the great Salt Lake desert, a little strip of land some twd or three hundred miles in extent, with not a tree in sight in the valleys, and the hills and mountains looking like gigantic cinder heaps. Passed through the Rocky Mountains and Sierra Nevadas mostly in the nightf and had but fleeting glimpses of the snow sheds, rocky peaks and canons, the mining sluice boxes and gigantic redwoods, and one glance of a big cinamon bear shambling along. ’ Arriving here, I reported myself and squad to the commanding officer, and we were assigned to a company of re­ cruits '•amped out at Presidio, near to the entrance of the Golden Gate. Just opposite Alcatraz Island, *a fortification guarding the harbor.

The Herald is pleased to announce that it has made arrangements by which it is able to offer to its readers a high class monthly magazine, in com­ bination with the Herald at a merely nominal price. The magazine with which we have made this arrangement is the Pilgrim, an excellent literary periodica! published at Battle Creek. This magazine has recently come into the hands of a new company who are hustlers. They are sparing no pains to make the Pilgrim a high class mag­ azine and they are succeeding admira­ bly. It compares favorably with th* leading periodicals of its kind, such as the Ladies’{Home Journal and the Sat­ urday Evening Post, both in typograph­ ical appearence and in literary merit. For Che sake of placing this excellent monthly within the reach of all our readers, we have decided to make them the following remarkable offer: The regular subscription price of the Pilgrim is one dollar. All who pay one dollar for the Herald and TWEN­ TY-FIVE CENTS ADDITIONAL will receive the Pilgrim one year, begin­ ning with the September number. The Pilgrim will be sent direct from the publishers.

Corns are horny indurations with a very sensitive nucleus or base and ap­ pear on the exposed portions of the joints of the toea. They are certainly caused by an undue and continuous prf-ssuic* and will usually “ disappear with large, easy shoes; otherwise, though frequently taken out. they will reappear. There are Innumerable remedies for the removal of corns. The most com­ mon and popular contain extract of cannabis indica and salicylic acid or lactic or acetic acid. The usual mode of usage is to apply the remedy for four or five ‘nights consecutively. Od the fourth or fifth night if the appli­ cation has been successful, after f hot footbath the corns can be picked out with the fingers.

The stuffing might be of ex­ celsior. but it must be very full and be finished off with a frill about four inches wide to cover the joint- A piece of webbing or a strip of the material neatly doubled about eighteen inches long should be nailed to either aide to prevent the lid failing back too far when opened.

There was not enough money in his pockets to pay for the ex­ pense of his burial, so the authorities -postponed the funeral to the next day. by which time they hoped to collect enough money from charitable Arme­ nians. The body was put In a coffin and left in a corner of the church. At night, however, the man returned to his senses and, finding himself In a coffin, the narrowest of all prisons, be­ gan to shriek wildly. Hi* voice and the clattering of the coffin awoke the priest and attendants, who were sleep­ ing tn an adjacent building. They were terrified, but eventually entered the church and. perceiving whence the cries came, rescued the man. Early next morning the latter went Into a coffin shop, where, by a strange coincidence, the first person be met wan the man who had nailed up his coffin the night before. The latter took him for a ghost and fled precipitately, shouting for help the while, The Ar­ menian rushed upon him and. seizing him. demanded pecuniary satisfaction for the damage done to hl* clothes In the broeess of putting him In the coffin. The undertaker took courage on find­ ing ti^t the Armenian was not a ghost nt all and retorted by demanding pay­ ment for the coffin and bls trouble the night before.

EDITORS FOR MARCH. *■ Edward Waite, Claw of 1903. Anzoletta Lombard, Class of 1903. James iftniplpfir. Class of 1902. Nellie Stebbins, Clam of 1903. The members of the editorial com­ mittee have thought that it would be a wise plan to make a slight change in their column this week, and they hope that it will be of as much interest to its readers. Mr. Maywood baa kindly writ­ ten the following article on athletics, and ha* greatly aided the committee in their effort* to make their weekly un­ dertaking a success. The subject is of vital importance to all, especially to students and It is trusted that they will fully appreciate it. ATHLETICS. The time is at hand when the Hast­ Ings high school must begin to train her athletes for the spring contest. Last year we entered contests with no thought of winning so many events. Our boys worked for the exercise and our school represented; much to our surprise, we lost first in the Interscho­ lastic meet by but one point. We hare good prospects for our team this year with the two Brooks and Mer­ rick, contestants tor the 100 yard race. The pole-vault will have Baker and Waite. Baker vaulted highest for us at Albion last year and Waite was a close rival. The long runs are safe in the hands of Wilcox. For the relay­ race there are several candidates, some of which contended last year. Since most of the old athletes are gone we may look forward to many trying to fiH their places in the jumps, hurdles, febot-put, etc. Just as soon as the weather permits, chine will be formed and work will commence in earnest. . We have often wondered why the \ has not been utilized by the Hastings instead of allowing UWremain idle. In the interests of oufrToung boys and girls we would like to make the suggestion that the build­ ing could be remodeled and make a fine home for the reading room, the woman’s dub, a business men’s club and by knocking out the’ftage give ample roomfor a good gymnasium. The base­ ment could have baths etc., in ft and Hastings could boast of as fine a place for the building of muscle and character aa any place of ten times its size in the country. Such an Investment would, In our judgment, be repaid a thousand fold in the brighter, happier lives of our boys and girts. Chas. G. Maywood, M’gr. Athletics High School.

Tbe reproductfon shows the old pillar aa It la sup- after they demolished the greater part of Rome in 300 B. C. and the capital Itself was saved by tbe cackling of the “sacred geese.” Tbe Inscription, or. rather, that part of it which escaped tbe barbarians, has been translated as follows: "Whoever desires to immolate cows, be should do It by the shrine. Sows should be Immolated away from (he shrine. The ritual cakes used in sacri­ ficing should be brought to the rex sacrorum at the time of the full moon. Whoever desires to Immolate cows or sows, having obtained leave from the rex sacrorum through the kalator, must take the auspices a nd present his votive offerings. Tbe same rules must be followed when sacrifices are per­ formed at the first quarter of the moon. Whosoever disregards the laws con­ cerning the auspices and votive offer­ ings, let him be sacred to Jupiter.” Only about a third of the stele es­ caped destruction, so that the rest of the inscription will probably never be known. The kalator, it is hardly nec­ essary- to explain, was a minor official attending the <*ex sacrorum, or chief of sacrifices, and, a “person sacred to Ju­ piter,” became himself a potential sac­ rifice. In other words, he was out­ lawed, and it was no crime for any­ body to “sacrifice” him. The lettering of the Inscription Is one proof of its antiquity, for. while at first glance the letters suggest Greek, they yet make Latin words, and It Is known that the primitive Romans borrowed from the Greeks many of the letters of their early alphabet Tlje place in which the old stele was found Is believed by some authorities to have been the beroon, or official burial place, of Romulus, the founder of the city, and therefore almost as old as Rome itself. Others, however, declare that Romulus was merely n tradition and so could not have bad a beroon.

Brig-Gen. Frederick Funston was the guest of honor at a dinner given in New York Saturday night by the Lotus club. More than 300 members of the club were present. Gen.

"Just you Wait," Costigan was really taking tbe “call­ ing down” of his friend very patiently for a man with the reputation of a quick temper. You might account for this patience, if you chose, by the in­ timacy between tbe two that had crown up in nearly three years of com­ mon detestation of tbe average board­ ing bouse, In dining together seven lays every week at restaurants chosen by common consent and In the occu­ pation of furnished rooms in the same bouse, where they contended with the landlord as one man. Lastly—here was the most Important txmd of union between Costigan and Muller—they had long since talked ever together the great question of woman’s proper place In tbe order of things and had cordially agreed that It was nowhere. Naturally. Muller felt aggrieved when he caught Costi­ gan twice strolling in ahady places with a blooming, brown haired young member of the reprobated sex, whose ;yes had a dangerous way of smiling at one without losing a certain sug­ gestion of sadness. Muller waited a ffitnute to ruminate >n the possible hidden meanings of his friend’s last saying. Then he veered iround and with more asperity of tone and manner said: “If I don’t know what I’m talking abont, why In tbnn3er don’t you put me right? Is she a typewriter?" “I regret to notice in you of late, Muller, an unpleasant use of vulgar tiang. No, you did not get It from me. I avoid all—all such marks of—of toughness.” “That is, yon have been trying to for tbe last three weeks—since you got ituck on this typewriter.” “ ‘Typewriter* is nqt.flutlescrlption of any class of womafi.

But man Is at best a plaything of fate. Muller, the morning after this conversation, was troubled aud dl&i trait His fellow clerk at the office remarked that he looked “dopy.” The ■enior office boy and factotpm, who had his own way of interpreting signs, frinned and whispered that Mr. Muller must have fallen in love, and he even succeeded in spreading that view of the situation. And when Muller went 3Ut tu “get a bite” he picked things up from the lunch counter in an indis­ criminate way that made the attend­ ants stare at him. At last be turned away from the counter blindly and ran Into the person wbo happened to be standing next behind him; and, lo, It was a woman I “I—I beg your pardon.” he began, in­ expressibly humiliated by tbe necessity Bf apologizing to one of that sex. He took refuge in a stooping attitude, col­ lecting sandwiches from off the tiled floor. . Tbe inopportune female was down there just as fast as be was, only she was laughing. “Don't mention It”— laugh—“accidents can t always be”— more laughing—“I believe you’ve taken my sandwich by mistake. Mine was drove Mm on to offer to walk with Im In tbe direction of her office. And that was Jiffw It caiue to pass that tbe head office boy saw them and made un0108*1 baste to get back to the office to tell that be bad seen her. “Yep. She’s a peach, I tell you. They coms all tbe way from Tabsteris together.** Nor was the head office boy the only person who saw Muller, In that short transit. When he entered the office, hla desk mate was there to receive hl ai. “Muller, I want to beg your pardon for saying you were dopy this morn­ ing. I see it was something more re­ spectable. by a long shot" ■ “I don’t knoir what you mean,” said Muller, tn a tone that seemed to bode But hostilities were prevented by the arrival of a caller for Mr. Muller. Muller went out from tbe Inner office in a mood to make a most unfavor­ able Impression on any chance visitor. I£jwas Costigan. .. “Oh, I saw you,’’ said Costigan. “Now what have you got to say?” “You saw us, did you? Well, what I have to say Is that this young per­ son got up so close behind me that I couldn’t move without spilling a pint of coffee over her.’* “Yes; but It was all your fault, you know, Muller. You said so yourself. Never mind, old man. You’re forgiven. When I passed you. you two looked so affectionate that It seemed a pity to interrupt" Just then the first assist­ ant office boy came out with his ears pricked and caught a few words, which were duly reported a minute later. “I was coming, anyhow, to ask you a favor.” “A favor," replied Muller, fearing tbe worst “Yes. I told you you didn’t know what you were talking about Why didn’t you wait and let me tell you last night? Do yon know what made me Join you in your hostility to the sex? Come over here and listen.

Professor Gillette’s investigations in­ dicate that it is a mistake to use deep cells in artificial foundation unless their walls are made of tbe thinness of natural cell wails.

This ostentatious pronounce­ ment was of course Intended to strike a responsive chord* in tbe heart* of the people and make Mr. Stearns appear a* a doughty champion of their inter­ est* a* opposed to tbe selfish demands of a wicked corporation. Unfortunately however for this de­ sired effect Mr. Stearns is on record as recommending that the queeflon of damages be left to tbe courts. When the question of repealing the special railroad charter* came up in the legisla­ ture in 1899 a commission was appointed to negotiate with the three companies concerned for the surrender of their charters. Mr. Stearns, at that time secretary ot state, was a member ofthis commission. The report of tbe com­ mission recommended that the special charters be repealed, that the com­ panies concerned be given six months’ time-in which tb reorganize under the general laws, and that “the question of compensation for damages, if Any, sus­ tained by the corporations interested, by reason of tbe repeal of said charter*, be referred to some court of competent jurisdiction of this state for determina­ tion." These recommenflstions were reason­ able and fair to all concerned. But now,' Mr. Stearns says he is opposed to allowing the Michigan Central one cent in damage*. Does he mean to say that he was wrong in recommending a refer­ ence of the.'question of damages to the courts? Would he prejudge a case to come before the courts?

ADDITIONAL LOCAL. Entered into rest in the early morn­ ing of March 10th, Dr. A. Philo Drake in the 74th year of hi* age. He was born July 31,1828, near Palmyra, N. Yf., removed to Washtenaw county, Michi­ gan, when a young boy and lived there on a farm until sixteen year* of age, thus early weaving into the warp and woof of bis young life that generous touch and sympathy with struggling, laboring manhood which so character­ ized his whole life. His early deter­ mination to study law was abandoned, and be turned his attention to medi­ cine, studying three year* at a medical college in Cleveland, Ohio. He was graduated from that institution in 1850 with the degree of M. D. and began the practice of medicine in Wisconsin, com­ ing to Hastings in 1852 choosing for his life work that noble profession which alone should crown every worthy brow with undying laurel.- None knew better than he the arduous labor of a pioneer physician. Instant in season and out of season, undaunted by sum­ mer*’ heat or winters’ cold, fearlee* alike of praise or censure, he has ever bravely trod the self-denying path of duty. During 1855 and two succeeding years be was employed in making governmental-’kurvey** in Nebraska, and during the civil war, he entered the service in 1864 as surgeon of the New Third Michigan Volunteers, and for many of the last year* of his life he was secretary of examining pension board. Slow to recognize or acknow­ ledge hl* own ability he was a profound student of medicine, a close analyzer of disease, and ambitious to keep in touch with the progressive spirit of tbe age. He was oroad in his charities and gen­ uine in his sympathy; bis life an open book which all might see aud read. For the past few year* hilling health compelled him to relinquish much of hi* active practice, and while we grieve that we shall see his face no more, yet the peaceful and painless death vouchsafed him seems-llke a pronounced benedic­ tion of “Well done good and faithful servant." He will be sadly missed in the council* of his profession, in the many household* where he has minis­ tered to the suffering and dying, but above all in hi* owq home and by the bereaved wife in her hour of sorrow. I can paa* no higher or more truthful encomium upon him than the faithful physician—the faithful friend, “An honest man the noblest work of God.” Dr. Drake was the last of the charter members of Hasting* Lodge, No, 58, F. and A.

There are 60 rolls in a bundle; thus the amount received on these freight bills is 24,000 rolls. This represents about one-half the wall paper we have received fof this spring’s trade. We buy direct from manufacturers in large quantities and save jobbers profits, and in buying in such quantities the oost for freight per roll is about half a. ceut.' Thus it can be seen that we can sell cheaper than any sample book man who has to order in small quantities of jobbers and pay their profits and large exp row or freight bills on amount ordered.

Think of M, Sarah r David Harris laid his paper acrosn bls knees, took off his spectacles and looked straight into tbe biasing wood fire as if gaxlng on some enchanted picture. "I wish she’d come every day," he murmured softly. “Strange, but there was something about the girl that re­ minded me strongly of Betb -- - • thing pink on her hat or arou»i.. jfleck.

"Easter was a great day at your bouse. Cousin David.” remarked his companion. “Yes. Betb and I usually spent the afternoon before hunting eggs and col­ oring them. There were great boxes of them behind the counter in father's store, but we preferred to run over to grandfather's farm n mile or more away, and hunt for what we wanted. It was fun. > “Grandmother’s reply to our yearly question was ever the same. ‘Certainly, my dears, run out to the henhouse uuu and Bat the Kutataudnl fill your baskets.’ L«v brick henhouse with Its sitting room and dining room and Its up stairs where the fowls went to roost drew us not thither. We liked l>est to search for the hiding places of tbe outdoor bena, those that roamed over tbe form ati। tbeir own sweet will, stole their nests aud laid whenever and wherever they pleased. There were no egg trusts in those days and no ‘corners’ in eggs, but plenty of nooks and corners where eggs were to be found, and we knew just where to look for them. Haystacks and straw stacks were favorite deposi­ tories, and Beth and I did love to slide down those great, clean, conical plies. Mangers and haymows where we loved to jump, calf pens aud dog kennels al­ ways yielded bountifully and gave ua no end of fun. Strikes! Such things were unknown. Those bens knew that they were born to lay eggs, and there was a jubilant cackling going on all day somewhere on tbe farm.. It was always Easter with those bens . •‘After the egg bunting Beth and I burled ourselves in tbe kitchen for tbe remainder of tbe day. with pots. pans, kettles and dyestuffs. It wouldn't have been half an Easter to ua without col­ ored eggs. Logwood chips produced a beautiful purple, onion skins a yellow tinge. For variety we sometimes stuck bits of beeswax on the sheila, which In these places remained white and gave the e^gs a spotted appearance. “From mother’s box of pieces or from some neighboring mother’s box Beth brought forth bright colored fig­ ured calicoes, feds, blues, greens, etc, Ngors that WonM ‘run.’ Bite sewed a bk of cloth round each egg. then we trapped them Into boiling water, where they remained a few minutes and came out with tbe figures and colors of the cloth stamped upon them. Artistic cre­ ations these were. We expressed our joy by dancing around the room, then laid the eggs separately on plattera and exhibited them ;o admiring friends. "Oh. Betb. Beth!

Three timarthe senate has Ignored or defeat­ ed tbe bill and now it will have a change to act upon the proposition again. It cannot be doubted that tbe sentimeat in favor of such an am end meat hw been steadily growing of late years, and if the people had a chance to vote upon it they would certainly adopt it. The vote in the bouse the other day was un­ animous. But the difficulty is to Induce an unwilling senate to take action that would deprive that body of its exclusive character and make It directly depend­ ent upon popular opinion. If the voters had a chance to choose their repreaentatives in the upper house directly, there Is no doubt that some of tbe mlk Honalres who now bold their seats through their ability to manipulate legfilatures would be retired to private life. ed change. The framers of the constitution thought that state legislatures would exercise better judgment in the selec­ tion of United States senators than the people would use, but a hundred years at experience shows that thqir view was i not well founded. State legislatures have shown no greater wisdom in elect­ ing men to\he national senate than the people have shown in electing o^her of­ ficials and public servants. On the I other hand the exercise of this power , by the state legislature is often atteuded by Corrupt methods. Men with no qualifications for the senate are able to buy their way into that august body and to hold their position through tbe Influence of money. The legislature aL . fords a means for unworthy but ambilious politicians to secure senatorships ' which they never could obtain from the ; voters of the state. ; , It is contended by some honest objectJ - oralhat the proposed change would be “( I . revolutionary; that it would subvert the intention of the constitution to preserve _J the idea of state sovereignty in tho up­ S per branch of congress as that of poptrlar government is recognized in the lower. In the senate every state, i whether large or small, is equal, and it i is argued that to elect senators by the P«9Ple instead of by the legislatures would tend to break down the nice balanoe between state and popular power now recognized in the constitution. But > it is bard to see much force in this arg-u*ment. Theoretically tbe legislatures ’ representsovereign states butpractical3y they represent the professional pol­ ' itlcians of the state and are more in­ clined to be governed, in the selection senators, by their own selfish inter­ ’ - eats than by the interests of their oonatituenta. K ' . Aa a matter of fact, senators chosen K trj the people would be no less repreaentative of tbe sovereign state than they are now, when their selection is re­ moved from the people and given to a few politicians, and as a matter of pure politics and good government the change would be beneficial. E'; The United States Will Not Interfere. It has been reported within the last few days that the international situa­ tion over the Chinese question is criti­ cal; that England and Japan on the one hand, and Russia and France on the other, are meditating war; and that Germany and tbe United States alone : can prevent such a castastrophe by re­ fusing to pledge themselves to remain neutral. Inasmuch as the policy of the United ' States has always been to keep out of : European quarrels it would be entirely superfluous for ou¥ government to give any assurances to tbe powers either one • way or the other, and it is certain that the diplomats of the old woi-ld fully un­ derstand the American position. Why then should Russia and France ask the United States, as London dispatches claim they have done, to define its at■ titude towards the new English-Jap7 aneae allianoe? Unless this republic forgets iw traditions and turns its back . upon the teachings of its founders and. • *s with the nations that are strug-’ ‘ the control of China. that the Paris and St. enuaantt are exceedlngted States in the event of war they should! interferes in the af- Win the War Soon Ctoss? Indications are not wanting that the Boer war is drawing to a cloae. Both participants are undoubtedly anxious for peace. Great Britain is findtag'the attempt to conquer the obscure little nation, enormously costly and humili­ ating. She has undertaken an un­ gracious task, and would be .glad to see herself well out oHt, provided she could stop fighting without sacrificing her pride and her honor. On the other hand the Boers must surely be tired of war’s terrible desolation. They have fought with a bravery and skill and persistency that have won the world's admiration. But it would seem as though they would now welcome any just and honorable agreement with their powerful adversary, by which thdir local independence and political rights should be secured. It is reported that efforts are about to be made, through emissaries sent from Holland to the Boer leaders in South Africa, to bring about a cessation of hostilities and a treaty of peace. If both countries are anxious for peace and both will agree to some compro­ mises, as sue ms probable, the tragedy of South Africa is near its close, and the world will not much longer have to dook upon the sad spectacle of a mighty empire trying to crush out the life of a heroic little republic—an enterprise which is unquestionably repugnant to Great Britain but from which her mighty pride will not let her desist un­ til some means be found to save it from a deadly wound. President Roosevelt’s admirable stand in favor of justice to Cuba, as­ sumed at the beginning of the beet sugar controversy, has evidently re­ ceived a serious set buck and the stren­ uous and high minded rough rider is proving to be very much like ordinary politicians with a hankering to keep himself In office. He is reported to have agreed to a 20 per cent, reduction on tbe Cuban sugar tariff and to have assured the beet sugar men that he really didn’t warit to do anything to hurt American interests^ you know, but, we are bound in honor to make some concessions to the Cubans and so this strenuous, high minded president, who knows that a twenty per cent, re­ duction will be a mere farce, who has the word of Gen. Wood himself for it, that the Cuban people ought to Lave at least a fifty per cent, concession, is wil­ ling to compromise with a strong fac­ tion of selfish monopolists at home, in order to propitiate them.

March 34.—By an al­ most unanimous vote the House corn; mittee on foreign affairs has strick out Of the *MltcheIl-Kahn Chinese xcJusJon bill the paragraph prohibiting ships flying the American flag from employing Chinese sailors underyt,000 fine Cor each offense. This provision has proved one of tbe chief sources of controversy over tbe bill. The 8en­ ators and Representatives from the Pacific coast states regard this provlston as roo»t Important. Tbe main argument leading to striking out the provision was that American ships on the Pacific com­ pete with English and Japanese lines and that the latter ships would indlrectly receive a great advantage in continuing the employment of Chinese at >7.50 per month, whereas the Amer­ ican ships would have to pay about 4»«per month for white sailors.

The magazine with which we have made this arrangement is the Pilgrim, an excellent literary periodical published at Battle Creek. This magazine has recently come into the hands of a new company who are hustlers. They are sparing no pains to make the Pilgrim a high class mag­ azine and they are succeeding admira­ bly. It compares favorably with tbe leading periodicals of its kind, such as the Ladies’JHome Journal and the Sat­ urday Evening Post, both in typograph­ ical appearance and in Jiterary merit. For the sake of placing this excellent monthly within the reach of all our readers, we have decided to make them the following remarkable offer: The regular subscription price of the Pilgrim is one dollar. All who pay one dollar for the Herald and TWEN­ TY-FIVE CENTS ADDITIONAL wiE receive the Pilgrim one year, begin­ ning with the September number. The Pilgrim will be sent direct from the publishers. This is a splendid opportunity for our readers to secure a fine magazine at a merely nominal cost. Call at tbe Herald office and see sample of the Pilgrim. New Circuit Court Cases. Martha J.

Fitz I^e, president of the Jef­ ferson Memorial Road Association, of । Charlottesville, Va., was in Washing­ ton this week; at tbo nead of a com­ mittee of citizens, which visited the White House and the capltol for tbe purpose of inviting Mr. Roosevelt and the senators and representatives to at­ tend the convention of the National Good Roads Association, to be held in Charlottesville, April 2, 3 and 4. As quite a number of republicans in the house were ashamed to steal a seat, when they already had a majority of 43, there waa otfly a majority of 10 on the vote to unseat Representative Rhea, of Kentucky, and give the seat to J. McKnight liosa, who now calls himself a republican, but who, Mr. Rhea de­ clared and dared him to deny it, regis­ tered os a democrat two weeks before the election and pledged himself, if elected, to go into tne democratic cau­ cus. Mr ,Khea made a manly speech just before the vote was taken, but when men allow themselves to be driven against their conviction, by party bosses manliness cannot be ex­ pected to appeal to them. After a general debate running ten hours tbe bodse passed tbe army appro­ priation bill, which carries a'total of 890.880,934. • Ex-Representative James Hamilton Lewis, of Washington, summed up bis opinion of the political outlook by say­ ing: “As . tbe McKinley tariff bill brought the democratic party into pow­ er In ’92, the ship subsidy bill will re­ turn it to power In 1904.’’ Mr. Roosevelt has promised Speaker Henderson that all the influence thfc administration can bring to bear'in his district shall be used Ko aid him in bis flgnt for renomination, but Mr. Hen­ derson is by no means sure that even with that help he can win, although he is outwardly trying to bluff through by pretending that bo Is con fldent both of renomination and re-election. , Representative Talbert, of South Carolina, said in a recent speech that some of the dudes “wear standing col­ lars so high as to resemble a white washed fence around a lunatic asylum.” Secretary Root's official instructions to Gen. Wood for the evacuation of Cuba previous to the inauguration of the newly elected Cuban government on May 20, makes it very plain that tbe evacuation is to be in name only, as the order provides for leaving a force of a^tlllei7 men, which may.be considered a permanent garrison, as tbe order says they are to remain until the naval sta­ tions that the United States are to have io Cuba are ready and then be trans­ ferred to them. A naval station gar­ risoned by troops from the army fa only a military post under another name. Following Is a republican explanation of that portion of Secretary Root’s or­ der: “It is not denied that plainly the meaning of this is that the army of the United States is to be perpetually rep­ resented* on the island by a force ade­ quate to cope with aoy emergency that may arise, and that the coaling stations will be occupied by the army and not the navy. Behind this is the right dis­ tinctly reserved In the Platt amend­ ment, which nowxis a part of the'organic law of Cuba, for Lhe United States xo intervene with a military force, of whose dimensions this government is to be the sole judge, whenever occasion may demand such intervention. In other words the military occupation of the island is to’be terminated only in name when the force now there is with­ drawn in accordance with tbe instruc­ tions issued today by tbe adjutant gen­ eral of the army at the direction of the president.” Distilled from the richest Malted Barley, Chase’s Barley Mall Whiskpy is full of nutriment, mild and excellent and absolutely pure.

Yet there Is absolutely no reason why this should be true. Stale bread, con­ trary to tbe common belief, is not a bit more digestible than fresh bread. But a slice of stale bread on being broken with the teeth resolves Itself Into more or less bard and gritty, particles which It is almost Impossible to swallow until they are softened by the saliva. Tbe ! particles Irritate the throat and the<ub let until they are well moistened. Tbe fact ia therefore that man Is absolutely compelled to masticate stale bread be­ fore he swallows it This act, of course, partially digests the "bread and thus makes it In a fit state far digestion and absorption farther on In the alimentary tract. That Is why stale bread appears to be more digestible than new bread. New bread Is soft, doughy or plastic, and there appears to be uo necessity to soften It with saliva, hence It escapes the preliminary digestive action. It Is in reality bolted, and bolting accounts for dyspepsia. Hot rolls can be enjoyed for breakfast without any fear of dys­ pepsia sp long as the bread Is good and so long as pains are taken to chew it thoroughly When turn become worn or soiled at the neck, they may be renovated by gently rubbing with cotton batting sat urated with gasoline, which should not be used in a room that has artificial heat or light, says The Ladles' Home Journal.

Say, father, there was a lively time here last Wednesday about 5:00 p. m. There were three cope came out to look the camp over and some of the fel­ lows passed out the report thAt they were after some soldiers. So before they new what was going on they were pelted with pieces of dirt, coal, sticks and old can*. TbeT- finally went into the kitchen and closed the door. Well the soldiers were crowded around the door for abopt two or three hundred feet. They all began to yell and call the soldiers in the 29th infan­ try and nearly the whole regiment was jammed around the kitchen. Well, they turned out the guard and finally escorted the cops out of the camp and I guess they don’t think very much of the U. 8. private soldiers now. I have been shoveling coal this afternoon and am a little "tired. We have to go on old fatigue, then the next day on spec­ ial fatigue. I am trying to keep an account of just what I do each day and will give you a little story book of my doings some day. / Your loving son, Chester G. Engelhardt. Resolutions.

The civil sujt of William Pennock against the Fere Marquette railway company for damages is on trial in the pircuit court this week. MA Pennock was put off a Pere Marquette train near Grand .Rapid* a few month* ago and he alleges he waa harshly handled and se­ verely injured. He ha* sued the com­ pany for 810,000 damage*. Meaer*. Colgrove and Potter have charge of his case, while the company is represented by Victor M. Gore of Benton Harbor, Mr. Kuyfer of Grand Rapids and Tbo*. Sullivan of thi* city. 'With such an array of tai ent on both sid es the case is being stubbornly fought and is attract­ ing a good deal of interest. It will probably go to the jury tonight. As announced last week the remains of the late Dr. 4. R. Johnson were tak-. ' en to Mancheater for burial. In *ome way the board of health of that place had gathered the impression that it waa not safe for the remains to be tak­ en to Mr. Johnson’s father's home nor to allow funeral services to be held, Consequently, Messrs. Crawley and May wood and the relatives were met upon arrival there by the board of health who after examining the’cbrtificate of the undertaker permitted the body to be taken to Mr. Johnson’s home. On Thursday..afternoon at 1:00 funeral services were held, and at the vault where the body was temporarly laid at rest, Mr. Crawley delivered the beautiful Pythian services in such an impressive manner that few went home with dry eyes. Experiments are being made at the pumping station by Superintendent W. C. Kelly to test the efficiency of air pressure for increasing the flow of water from the several artesian wells that furnish the city’s supply of water. By the aid of a locomotive air pump, air was forced into the lower end of one of the pipes through which the water rises from the well. This pressure tends to lessen the weight upon the water, produced by gravity, thereby increasing the flow. The natural flow from the well was 71} gallons a minute. When the air pressure was applied the flow was increased, to 200 gallons. If further test* prove equally satisfactory it is probable that a system of air pres­ sure will be put itf, the cost of which will be about 8000. It is estimatod that the increased capacity, and the relief upon the pumps will make enough sav­ ing in the cost of pumping to soon pay this expense. *. , A Mr. Richards of Chelsea was in the city last week and had a large can­ cer removed from his lower lip by Drs.

Lovejoy, who is such a rtrorfc advocate of good roads that he wouldn't se contented until the highways were what they should be. Mr. Lovejoy prevailed upon the board to buy a gravel pit; then he urged ev­ ery farmer to haul a load of gravel home every time he passed the pit and put it on the road in front of his own farm. Once begun, the farmers raw what an improvement gravel is over the an­ nual scraped back, wornout earth. The board then purchased two more pits in different parts of tbe township and, at the suggestion of Mr. Lovejoy, offered a dMy to farmers with teams to haul gravel in the winter and place it on one side of the road one winter and on the other side the next. \ Tbe first winter the farmers turned out strong, and the town had to pay for 11,700 days’ work, which was a big starter. Each year for several years the townMilp has made an appropriation of from 11,000 to IL800, and today practically ail of the roads of the township are graveled.

Of course they know that It la useful in many branches of cookery and, that without Ita aid the table would be bare of Ita thinly rolled bread MDd butter, Ita delicate cakelets and ita other usual acceaaorlea. Beyond these ■ uses the value of butter is a thing only vaguely thought of. But this delicate fat is as valuable aa tbe dearer cod liver oil for weakly, .1 thin people, and doctors have frequent­ ly recommended the eating of many thin allces of bread thickly spread withhotter as a means of pleasantly taking into the bodily tissues one of the purast forms of fat It 1s possible to get Butter is a carbon, and ail excess of it Is stored up aa fat in the body. It gives energy and power to work to those who cat heartily of it. So It la not economy at table to spare the but­ te', even to the healthy folk. For any one afflicted with consumption butter Cookery, if plenty of fat can be digest­ ed, is one of the best ways of curing the disease if it is in its early stages W of keeping it at bay if advanced. . Butter is not a simple fat, composed iff merely one sort. It is a mixture of no less than seven different sorts of nod no more complex oil can be taken than this is.

The Cl eh For Working Girin The girl wage earner leads, as a rule, a comfortless life, whether she be an inmate of her home or a boarding bouse in a strange place. After her toil­ some day she needs tbe change that can best be supplied by tbe well ap­ pointed club. This will doubtless appear a frivo­ lous view to take of the proper use to which the girl wage earner should put her leisure hours, for it la the custom of those who interest themselves In the welfare of the girl to persuade her to study after working hours. It is not disputed that the knowledge may be of advantage to her, but the criticism here made fa that the almost invariable programme offered to the girl is re­ stricted to opportunity for improving her mind and rendering skillful her fingers, these chances not being, as is the case with boys' organizations, one of several features. It is surprising that the charitably disposed have not arrived at an under­ standing that recreation is a legitimate need of tbe girl nature. When one con­ siders the prodigious amount of money and time spent in providing the daugh­ ters of tbe rich with pleasure, it does seem as though women of position would long before this have made ade­ quate provision for this requirement of girl nntiiic among tbe Ices fortu­ nately placed. Is It not about time to rest tbe boy club question and take up that of the girl on a scale as large and as ambitious as ever was planned for the bo^?—Vogue. A mother overheard her nursegirl talking to tbe little child she waa put­ ting to steep, and among other legends of the nursery to which she indulged was this, "If you don’t go right to sleep this very minute, a great,- big, awful, black bear, with eyes like coals of fire and sharp, cruel teeth, will come out from under tbe bed and e<-t y-o-n a-1-1 This poor tittle thing nestled down under tbe clothes to dream of horrid bears eating her up. ’ y -i That night when the stolid nurse had composed herself in her own comforta­ ble bed and bad put the lamp out there came a sudd-m tap at tbe door, and tbs tttrocfh tbe peuelx: “Maole.

Apropos of lamps m general, it is well to exercise some care In making a selection from the general supply. If intended merely for ornament, the round globes now so popular are satis­ factory, but for a library or reading room tbe lamp should have a spreading globe. Green Is recognised as tbe best color for tbe eyes; while yellow or white shades on reading lamps are most try­ ing, and blue globes reflect a sickly light that is exceedingly unpleasant. Bed shades are effective if used with moderation and in tbe right place, but a preponderance of this color is apt to prove unsatisfactory. To get tbe beef results from lamps they must receive dally care and be properly filled and trimmed. Lye Water. Strong lye watdf will cleanse tbe lids of metal, self sealing cans quicker than anything else. Every housekeeper knows the crust that forms on tbe in­ side and that looks bad, though it does not injure the usefulness of the can. Put a tablespoouful of lye in half a gallon of rainwater. Let it get hot and pour over tbe lids. Let them stand in it twenty mtnutes, but not on the stove, as heat loosens the porcelain lining. Remove to clear water and wash well. Sleeping Hoota».

Only two wltaeeMS Weresworn at t he and both told substantially the same story and the same was embodied in their written statement given the de• tective. The facts as sworn to are " about as follows: Caleb France and his wttrwcse in a ■ dispute over their daughter going to Manton to join her husband. He struck his wife, knocking her onto a bed, and n^as bending over her, chok'ing her an^threatening to kill her, when the boy Glenn rushed into the ^.rocsn, b^d a revtdrer to his father’s * / afiieaod 'cbot him.

Al .Wilcox, five miles south of Willow Lakes, yesterday about Coon, heart dtoeaae being the immediate cause of hl* demise. He was in town a few days ago and was not confined to the bed long. Mr. Lee was born November 7,1830, in Rensselaer county, N. Y. In 1854 he moved to Michigan, residing near Irv­ ing until a year ago," whbnneo&me to South Dakota. He was married Dec­ ember 17,1862. to Annie E. Porter, who died in July." 1899. Mr. Lee had eleven brothers and slaters of whom only one —a brother residing at Middleville, Mich.—is living. He was an uncle of Jaa. H. Lee, Mrs. C.C. Collins, Warren Walker and Mrs. H. A. Wilcox, and /luring the past year has lived at the homes of these relatives.

The next morning, Dec. 31, at 8:00 o’clock we donned bats and coats, for it was quite cold, And' with our grips we made our way to Mountain Grove, the nearest depot, 121 miles distant.

There is plenty to'do in the lumber business, also ties and shioglee. The soil is surely fine, a great share composed from the overflow of the Mississippi river; it fo very fer­ tile. Corn will grow from eight to twelve feet high. They do not farm as people do in Michigan; they take what we would call a small shovel plow and hitch one horse to it, make a mark or furrow, drop in the seed, then take the same tool, go in between the first rows and “bust out the middle” as they say. Then it's done, no cultivating or hoe­ ing. They never cur their corn nor husk it; ft's too much work. These are the native styles. Wheat is cut with a cradle, if any is raised, in both Missouri and Arkansas. Next we took the cot­ ton gin where they separate the cotton from the seed and bale it for the card­ ing mill. The seed they use a great deal for feed as we do corn. Our over­ land trip was to Lake City, 8t. Francis Lake, which fo.now noted for fish. The bay empties into the Mississippi river. One of the common unpleasant sights is the snuff sticks the native wom­ en use and the snuff and tobacco and moonshine the men and boys use. They are too indolent for anything. Fifty years will not bring them up to our style of living. They are satisfied as they ^re. Some have lived in their little huts forty and fifty years without even a window in them.

Why, for in­ stance. should three great ocean cur­ rents send their warm waters across the wide Pacific, Atlantic and around the Cape of Good Hope? There have been many theories advanced to solve the problem of their origin, but all have proved fallacious. Other and equally mysterious currents exist In well nigh all parts of the world. The tides arc so erratic In different parts of the world Jhat-one hesitates to accept the theory that the moon controls them Iu all cases. It Is on record that the sea has run for weeks ©nt of the Java sea through the strait of Sunda and thence back again for a Hke period without any per­ ceptible rise or fall during those times Then there Is the equatorial current 1 that flows into the Caribbean sea. t3e ever flowing current to the eastward around Cain* Horn, the cold stream flowing from the icy regions of the north past Newfoundland and Novn Scotia and along the American roast |p the extreme end of Florida, the con­ tinual current running with u velocity of from four to five knots an hour through the strait of Gibraltar into the Mediterranean sea. the swift cur rent running across the rocks aud shoals off the end of Billiton island, which apparently starts from nowhere and ends somewhere hi the vicinity of the same place, and the current which, starting half'-way up the China sea, runs from two to three knots an hour to the northcast and finally ends ab­ ruptly off the n^rtb end of Luzon. Then we have those tidal vagaries known the world over as bores Realdents on Severn side are familiar with them, and those that run up the Hu­ gh and Irawaddy rivers from side to side in a zigzag Shape till they reach their limit, often tearing ships from their anchorage, originate nobody knows where or why. The rush of wa ters iu the bay of Fundy is nothing but a huge Ixire sweeping all before It up to the head of the bay till the waters have risen to the height of fifty or six ty feet. Off Southampton we have the double tides, while at Singapore It has been observed for days at a time that there has been but the one rise and fall in the twenty-four hotfrs. The tides may be and very often appear as though they were ‘’moonstruck.” but they certainly are not controlled with hard and fast rules by that or any oth er body.—London Shipping World. , , j uairc । I A trueicvpj-.)

In his report tc 4 the government, which by the way was |||l not made public until the senate called I for it, Major Gardener gobs into the evils of military administration at con­ T aid©cable length. He says that the sen­ timent of loyalty that formerly existed in bis province towards the United States is being destroyed by the conduct ■ of the troops who use little discriminal tion between insurgents and friendly E natives but employ harsh and cruel f- methods in order to obtain information, r burning barrios, laying waste the coun| try, torturing the natives by the so-call| ed water cure, contemptuously calling E them “niggers, “etc. “The course now HL being pursued,” says tbe major, “in l this province and in the provinces of BL Batangas, lutguna and Samar is, in my ; E opinion, sowing the seeds for a perpetK ual revolution against us hereafter HL whenever a good opportunity offers. ” This and much more to tbe same pur| port, constitutes a serious larraigument Ew, of military government and there can Eg- be no doubt that the major has made Ef^ disclosures very unpalatable to the war L department. But it must be rememberF ed that the author of this report is uimuelf an officer and soldier, with a miliE, - tary.man's pride in the army; and that he must have realized tbe resentment E” which his statements would arouse in the minds of the war department of­ ficials at Washington. Hence it must have been a high sense of duty that led ■ him to deprecate so strongly the trend ■ of our military policy In the Philippines. From tbe very nature of things it is ■ . reasonable to think that Major Garden­ ia I. er's statements are substantially true. Military government is essentially harsh, arbitrary and intolerant. It is 1 not calculated for reconciliation and tbe M cultivation of friendship. Therefore it C is the part of reason and mercy for our ■ government to substitute civil for mar^ tial law as soon as possible. As Major Gardener says in commenting favorably on the work of the Philippine commis­ sion, “true loyalty and contentment can only oome under a benign civil gov­ ernment. ” f f r Senator Hoar's Sound Objection. In speaking against the Chinese exelusion bill Senator Hoar laid down a general principle as a reason for his op| position that is certainly worthy of E- thoughtful attention. “It is not race” 7 said the venerable senator from Mas­ sachusetts, “built is degradation that L we ought to strike at add keep out of ; . this country H we can. The objection ■ io the legislation proposed is that you |; strike at men, not because of their in­ dividual degradation, but because of IL {• Mr. Hoar’s contention will meet with the approval of very many fair-minded and unprejudiced Americans. It would - be hard, indeed, to justify upon moral grounds or from American ideals of justice and freedom the policy of exclud■ ing from our soli a whole race of men, simply because of tbeir color. A na­ tion that haL founded its faith upon the ^'.“■doctrine that all men are created free > and equal, and made tremendous sacri‘ flees of Wood and treasure to free and E enfranchise tbe black race presents a • melancholy spectacle to the world when it refuses to admit to iti shores all Chinamen, whether good or bad, and at ' ‘ the same time receives foreigners from £ Other countries, regardless of tbeir natiooality or color. Such discrimination against tbe peo­ ple of China, based as it is upon race in­ Mead of character, is scarcely defensible except upon purely selfish and un-Amerlean grounds. I f foreigners are vicious । and degraded, or if they oome to our shores with no intention of becoming { Ohlsens, they ought to be excluded, 0 whether they come from China or Eu­ rope. But if they are virtuous and in­ I teHlgent, industrious and well-disposed , Aey ought to be treated just the same E whether their skin is white, or brown L <r yellow. By singling out the Chinese ■ from all the rest of the world to disWimiaate against we justly affront u friendly nation, and do violence to the £. principles upon which we have built up Hoar's position is indeed imm an abstract principle at equity, but the clamor of the «*for Chinese exclusion is m likely to prevail at Wasb- .

BUm. Not that it will make much difference to them which one wins out, but the factional fight which will be thereby engendered will undoubtedly be intensely diverting. It will afford the campaign an element of interest and excitement, which ft might otherwise lack, and give the professional politi­ cians a fine chance to exercise their judgment in deciding which side to es­ pouse. Best of all, from tbe standpoint of the heelers and the spoilsmen, it will cause the opening of two bfg and ple­ thoric “barrels.” Surely it is a lucky thing that the honorable lumberman of the western shore has decided to go af­ ter the scalp of the honorable lumber­ man of Saginaw. Incidentally it may prove to be a good thing for the state by resulting in the turning down of the boodle-ridden party of Bliss and Stearns and the election of a democratic govern­ or instead of either of these over-am* bitious millionaires.

STRENGTH FROM FOOD. All physical strength must come from food alter it has been received into the stomach and properly digested and assimilated. Medicine cannot make strength. There is only one source of strength and that is food converted into nutrition. There are two chief causes of physical weakness; one insufficient THE WEAK SPOT food, the other the inability of the stom­ of the modern man is hfeatomach.

Manila, April 14.—The merchant* of Lagoncy, in South Camarlnes province, Luxon, have tent a cable meaaage to General Chaffee praying that the American troop* be not withdrawn from Lagoncy. The merchants declare that they are unanimously of the opin­ ion that if they are deprived of the protection cf the military they will be­ come victim* of the lawless element at the cost of their lives and property. They say that if the American troops leave the town the enemy, could re­ duce the food supply of the inhabitants and retard the advance of the soldier* coming to their rescue, and that such action would lead to Irreparable dam­ age. The merchant* further ’declare the local police to be Insufficient to guarantee order.

The New York papers report that the health department of that city has seized as dangerous to health nearly two tons of cheap mixtures sold for bak­ ing powder, and dumped them into the offal scow to be destroyed. More of the powder wm found in a Sixth ave. de­ partment store. The report of the an­ alysis of Che health department stated that it was “an alum baking powder" containing alum and pulverized rock. The different health authorities seem to have different ways of repressing the sale of bad baking powders. In England they have prosecuted the gro­ cers under the general law and broken up the traffic. In Missouri the sale of alum baking powder is actually pro­ hibited by law. In New York they seize the unwholesome stuff and cast it into the river, without any discussion. The latter way Is certainly effective. The alum baking powders are usually offered at a low price, ten to twenty cents a pound, or with some prize, as a temptation to the housewife. Consumers can protect themselves by buying only high-grade baking pow­ der of established name and reputation. Do not be tempted by the grocer to take something else as “Just ssjjood” or “our own brand," for the trials show that the grocer himself is often de­ ceived by unscrupulous makers and is selling an alum powder without know­ ing 1L There are several good powders on the market; let the housekeeper Insist on having what she knows is right, and not be induced to risk the life of the family for an Imaginary saving of few cents.

Although it takes more than a diploma to make a good physi­ cian yet the medical diploma is essen­ tial as witnessing to professional study and training. It is well for women to examine into offers of "free medical advice,” and to ascertain whether the offer is made by those competent pro­ fessionally and legally to give medical advice.

Though the high mountains seemed very wonderful at first to the children, they soon became accustomed to them, for. as Luise expressed It. '"They’re just like our own hills in the west, only heaps bigger." But the, forest growth continued marvelous, particularly to Rollin arid Luise. They were so enthu­ siastic that Mr. Morey suggested they all alight at the foot of the mountain which loomed before them. This would ease the horses and give the juvenile sightseers a better view of the trees abounding in rugged grandeur on all sides. “It was just what 1 wanted to do,” said Rollin, jumping down quickly and followed by his sister and cousins. The children scampered on ahead, eagerly plucking .eaves from bushes and trees. They had only gone n short distance when they espied a small barefooted girl as brown as a butter­ nut seated on a rock directly in their path. Through her thin short frock the outlines of her slender little body were plainly' visible.

"What do you want to know fqr, little girl?” he said, gather­ ing his courage against some unexpect-. ed attack.

They all ran to the door to see for themselves.

An Ihk» Worthy ot tho Party ’ [ t [ | f« •r ' I The revelation. tbM ore being oade concerning the doings of American »oldiere in Lhe Philippines are enough to make every honorable, patriotic Amerloan citizen hang his head In shame. Colonel Gardener’s, report as civil gov-etnor of a province, shows that our sol■ diets resort to ixjrtu re as a means of pu iiiahment of Filipino insurgents and treat all natives not known to be friendly with marked and cruel severity. Cor­ poral'O’Brien, a returned Philippine soldier, relates io tbe New York World I F • tale of shocking cruelty that is scarce. ly credible. Helpless and unoffending , men,‘ women and children were shot by | oar soldiers at the command of their at| fleers, in mere wantonness. “Two old I1 men” says this witness, “bearing be­ t tween them a white flag and clasping g hands like two brothers, approached the ? lines. Their hair wm white. They fairly tottered under the weight of : years. To my horror the order was given to fire, and the two old men were ' shot down in their tracks. ” Many other Instances of similar Inr- humanity are given by Corporal | O'Brien. Such horrible things are hard to believe, but the evidence is receivi '. ing such strong corroboration from re­ . ports made officially and from numerous L Other statements of returned soldiers [■ that the world is forced to credit them. It is not the purpose of this article, B however, to enter into these harrowing and disgraceful details, except so far as . to enforce this pro position The United ' States has been placed by the Philip­ pine policy of the republican party in [ an untenable position. It is a disgrace lor this mighty, Christian nation to be j engaged in such unchristian business, ? and it is the foremost duty of Lhe AmerI ican people to change the national atti­ tude towards this weak and alien peo­ ple. The republican party cannot take | up this duty. Its leaders are committed i.to the policy of military suppression and I the enforcement of American civiliza­ tion upon an unwilling people. The democratic party therefore must assume L . the task of setting the nation right in its Philippine policy. The old, historic party of the const!tution, which, ever since its great de­ feat in 1900 has been floundering about for alive issue, here has an admirable F opportunity 'to re-ailgn its shattered forces. Let it propose the same policy towards the Filipinos that we have fol­ lowed towards the Cubans and appeal r •, -to the American people upon this issue It will find the best popular sentiment, J - the mass of patriotic and just minded R ✓ Americans, ready co sympathize with and support such a doctrine. Here then is an issue worthy of a great party, and if the signs are not entirely misleading, the democratic party is prepared to espouse it and the country B ’ to rally to its support.

This amendf'.’ meat will of course be a blow to the cane ; sugar trust, and while it would benefit ‘ ’ the millions of sugar consumers In the ^ United States, it would reduce th© pro­ ' fits of .the refiners. Hence, the beet sugar “insurgents” count upon the su| — gar interests in tbe senate to reject ------------------------ . the smendment. This will necewltate a conference and probably end in no bill being passed at this session. Hence we see extreme protectionists uniting with the democrats In a rUle.: anti-protection proposition, simply for the sake of defeating a twenty percentconcession to Cuba. If their «nmnc succeeds, they will have defeated an ad­ measure and brought It Into discredit for failing to keep its promise to the Cuban people. But of eourae that will make no differ&ocfe'lo these selfish schemers- On the other hand if the senate takes these men at their word and actually passes tbe bill aa amended, the whole sugar interests ot thecountry will suffer.

Mr. Stearns’ aggressive campaign tor tbe nomination will at course spur on Governor Bliss wnd his friends and necessitate similar tactics on their part 1q order to counteract the Stearns movement. Expensive organizations must be maintained by both men from now on, and boodling operations resort­ ed to on both sides. Such office-seeking is unworthy any right minded citizen. It is in fact an In­ sult to the intelligent voters of the state and deserves to be rebuked. It assumes that the office of governor Is to be sold to tho highest bidder and the shrewdest manipulator of delegates. Lt ignores entirely the will of tbe masses who make up the party, and assumes that they will tamely submit to any bargain which the politicians may make. There is no hope for the honest re­ publicans of Michigan. Their organi­ zation is controlled by the boodlers and corruptionists and these men will run the conventions to suit themselves Honest and self respecting men, who will not stoop to mercenary methods to gain a nomination have been relegated to tbe rear and the battle is one between men whose duly qualifications for the high office are found in their pocket­ books. Truly the old fashioned and old fogy notion that the office should seek the man is no longer in vogue in g. o. p. politics. Should Not Be Insulted. Detroit's sensational evening paper, To-Day, is carrying its opposition to Governor Bliss to a foolish, not to say puerile, extent. It not only raves about his “stupidity," ‘‘asininLy,” “in­ solent arrogance," etc. but takes de­ light io belittling him in its editorial columns by reicrring to him in small letters as “aarontbliss, ” “governor­ bliss, "etc. The Herald has no desire to cham­ pion the present governor of Michigan. We do not agree with him politically, nor do we regard him the most able and brilliant man in the state. But if we consider him in his individual capacity be is certainly a gentleman and entitl­ ed to be treated with ordinary courtesy, and if we consider him in his official ca­ pacity, be represents the majesty of tbe sovereign state of Michigan and should not be treated with Insult. Hence it is painful to see a newspaper that pre­ tends to be reputable and hlgbminded descend to such disrespectful and un­ dignified methods of attack. How would our contemporary like to be alluded to as “thedetrcittoday”? Hon. Don M. Dkkdcbon, who has pen rather inclined w favor tbe reiblican side of the Philippine queaDn, seems to have had his eyes opened r ttie operation of the sedition laws, peaking on tbe subject he said: “I ould rather give up those islands, lose all they cost us, lower the flag a thousand times, and get out of Porto Rico, Cuba, and Hawaii than to see our civil authorities—note I say our 'civil authorities’—revive the sedition laws, the like of which were so abhorred and 90 hated and whose existence on our statute books was bo brief and so ruin­ ous to their authors in the administration of John Adams.”, Glad Mr. Dickinson has recovered his democratic eye- civil service commission over­ looks much in Washington, but it is Sot after the postmaster of Chicago, distance makes a difference.

Recently th< Spaniuh war has added the Burrendei Tree at Santiago to tbe ranks of cele bra ted forest monarchs. The Charter Oak. at Hartford, Conn, was reputed to be venerable at tb< time it became famous. Tradition sayt that It was over 600 years old when in 1607, tbe daring spirits of (he colony of Connecticut Uid in its trunk (lit charter of their liberties as a ruse tc avoid the •surrender of the document to the king’s officer. King Charles ll had granted the charter, and uis broth er and successor, the Duke of York empowered Governor Andross to recal. all New England charters and rule Uh* colonies as one realm. The people of tbe coloiy of Connecticut refused to give up tbelr rights, and when the charter was demanded hid it in the hollow trunk of the ancient oak. Klug James was driven from his throne and Governor Andross recalled, and tin charter remained in full force. Th* old tree wus destroyed by a storm in 1854. Penn’s Treaty Tree stood on the banks of tbe Delaware river nt a place orig Inally called Rhackamaxon. but now Kensington, within the precincts of Philadelphia. (f-4 history dates back to a day in November. 1682. when Wil Ham Penn, the English Quaker col on! Kt met under Its spreading branches the chiefs of the Delaware trii»e of red men and concluded the famous treaty which became the foundation stone Hf tbe great commonwealth of Pennsyl vanla. Among other pleasant things Penn said to the children of the forest “We meet in the broad pathway of good faith and good will. No ndvau tage shall be taken on either side, but all shall be openness and love. We afe all one flesh and blood.” The Indians listened with delight, for Penn was a uew type of white man. They said. “We will live Ju love with William Peuu and his children as long as the sun and the moon shall endwe." The treaty was not uiMl it was never broken. Venn's treaty tree was a spreading elm. It was long venerated for its as MCiations, and Penn himself once tried to? purchase the estate on which It stood. It was often painted, and copies outlie original drawings are still In exIsftnce.

Washington drew hlj sword on tbe 3d of 'Joly. 1775. and assumed commind of tbe Revolutionary army. Washington’s Elm now stands in the middle of a street in Cambridge and has many visitors, who are pleased to carry away as sosvenlrs setups of Its crumbling bark or falling leaves. At tbe time of the incident tbe tree stood at the north end of tbe Cambridge common and was then noted for its sUe and beauty. Tbe Continental forces were ranged,upon the common to re­ ceive their nevf chief. For nearly three-quarters of a cen­ tury. or from 1780 to' 1849. tbe south had a I istoric tree in tbe famous mag­ nolia which stood in Charleston In­ Ride or tbe line of old Revolutionary fortificetlonk. The branches of this beeetlftil magnolia spread over 200 feet Tbe incident which made the Council Tepe of Charleston historic was an *unpleaBant one for the Revolution­ ists but tbe people of tbe city never ceased o venerate,^, in 1780 General Liaaols commanded the garrison of Charleston during a siege by the Brit-. lab. Iu tbe early spring of that year tbe boWegera were re-enforced by a rooms ml under General Clinton, and letroops and the efty. oa the bit of landscape ied In the San Jurn Bet tit-field part at Santiago is the famous Surrender Tree, where General Shaftei met the Spanish commander, Tore), and arranged for tbe surrender of th* city. Tbe tree is a ceiba, or silk cot ton. and one of the largest in that re­ gion. Tbe ceiba tree Is never found in forests and usually stands in the open because It drives out ail other varle ties./ It is quite as common an arbo­ real feature in the West Indites as the oak and elm in ths United States. AH the conferences between the Span ish and Americas officers during the negotiations about surrender were held under tbe Surrender Tree. It was there that Generals Mjles and Total hadtheii preliminary talk on the 13tb of July, three days before the surrender. The ceiba stood midway between the lines Tbe surrender commissioners met at 2 o'clock In the afternoon, and after the details had been discussed and cop les of the treaty prepared in Spanish and English tbe signatures were af fixed. It was then 5 o’clock. Tbe cer emony of surrender was witnessed by the general officers of both armies, with their stuffs and a guard of IOC soldiers. At tbe same time General Sbnfter returned to General Toral tbe sword and spurs taken by the Amert cans from the body of General del Rey tbe Simnlsh leader who fell in tbe de fense of El Caney. Other famous American trees were the Stuyveaant Pear Tree, which stood over 200 years at 'rtiird avenue and Thirteenth street. New York: Pontiac'* Memorial Tree, at Detroit: Arnold's Willow.

THE SPECIALIST T« COMING The beef trust seems at last tohave _ __ awakened toa realization of the fact that its latest exactions have overstepped the limit of popular endurance, and one of IW’representatlves has felt called on to announce officially that within a month or six weeks prices will be drop­ ped to tljelr former level. The ground for this announcement is alleged to be the advent in the market of grass fed cattle -from Texas. Tbe statement may be taken for what It is worth, but it is evident that it is put out mainly for the purpose of saving the face of the trust magnates.—Grand Rapids Press. The Meat Trust. The meat trust requires no special protection. It has almost dictatorial powers, in spite of-the competition to which it is opposed. It can buy cattle cheaper than the independent-buyer.

Grand Rapid*, Mini Democratic Harmony. The harmony with which the demo­ crats in the house voted for the r.ntisugar trust amendment was a source of surprise and disappointment to the republicans. Still another evidence uf the unanimity with which the democ­ racy is preparing to act was set forth by the conference when the democrats in the house determined to appoint a committee to decide upon a policy of dealing with the Philippine Islands which could be adopted by the demo­ crats of both chambers. The hearings of the senate committee on Philippines have been more extend­ ed than those of the house committee and have given the senators a far bet­ ter grasp of the situation than their colleagues at the other end: of the capi­ tol have had. As a consequence, they are prepared to present an arraignment of the administration which will .prove startling to the country.--Grand Rap- No Loss of Timo. < ; 1 have sold Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy for years, and would rather .be out of cof­ fee and sugar than II I sold" five bot­ tles of It yesterday to threshers that could go no farther, and they are at work again Ibis morning.—H.

The latest move of the tariff reform republicans in the bouse is an agitation for. the appointment of a tariff commis­ sion to sit during the coming summer and report to congress next December. The chief agitator In this matter is Representative Roberts, erf Mass., who made an unsuccessful attempt to get an amendment placing hides on the free list attached to the Cuban reciprocity bill before it passed the bouse. The principal argument in favor of a tariff commission is that it would keep the re­ publican tariff reformers in line during the coming congressional campaign, because it Would be a sort of promise that the republicans intended to revise the tariff. Democrats are not uneasy over such a method of evading the very live question of tariff revision. They know that the voters of the country are intelligent enough to know that if the republicans really wish to revise the tariff there Is plenty of time to do It at th is session and give the people a chance to pass on the work at the congressional elections, and that the appointment of a tariff commission would only be an at­ tempt to dodge the issue until after the congressional elections. Representative Stevens of Minnesota, who was recently in Cuba, doesn’t en­ thuse over the prospect of American trade with the island. He tells the fol­ lowing personal experience: “There is a native prejudice in Cuba, against American goods. At Santiago I met a Philadelphia man traveling for a linen house, and went with him to the various merchants of Santiago. Not one Of these merchants would consider any trade with the United States. They would not examine the goods, though the prices were as low and the traveling man claimed the quality and terms as good as would be furnished by European competitors. At Cienfuegos I met a Boston traveling man who represented a boot and shoe, house. He had a simi­ lar experience. Only one merchant in Cienfuegos would examine his goods. The articles were the best that^ould be made and the prices were low, but the native taste preferred the cheap Span­ ish product.” Representative Shaffroth of Colorado presented some strong arguments to the house judiciary committee iu favor of amending the resolution proriding for a change In Inauguration day from Max-ch 4 to the last Thursday in April, so as to provide for the assembling of congress on January 14 following the congressional elections. He thinks that for a house to continue to legislate after a majority of its members have been turned down by the people, as frequent­ ly occurs under present laws, is misrep­ resentation. A SPLENDID COMBINATION. The Herald is pleased to announce that it has made arrangements by which it is able to offer to its readers a high class monthly magazine, in com­ bination with the Herald at a merely nominal price. The magazine with which we have made this arrangement is the Pilgrim, an excellent literary, periodical published at Battle Creek. This magazine has recently come into the hands of a new company who are bustlers. They are sparing no pains to make the Pilgrim a high class mag­ azine and they are succeeding admira­ bly. It compares favorably with the leading periodicals of its kind, such as the Ladies’gHome Journal and the Sat­ urday Evening Port, both in typograph­ ical appearance and in literary merit. For the sake of placing this excellent monthly within the reach of all our readers, we have decided to make them the following remarkable offer: The regular subscription price of the Pilgrim is qdg dollar.

This isn’t likely to be important, as the next house will certainly be democratic unless there is a great change in public sentiment between now and election ; The sugar trust admits that repea) of tbe differential duty on refined sugar would cut its profits to the extent of •8,000,000 a year. Surely that Is reason enough for its repeal, with the people, if not with the senate. Careful parents do not, now ask the men who propose for their daughters’ hands whether they can give them horses and carriages but whether they can give them beef three times a day. Double the price of everything eat­ able; add about 5 per cent to the earn­ ings of tbe average man, and the result will be what the republicans label “great prosperity.’’ WILL the republican kickers be call­ ed to the White house and lectured, or will they merely be notified that the pie counter is closed to them?

Such a garden, grown and cared for in tbe easiest and cheapest way. Is what every fanner might have, but not what every farm­ er aetuaHy attains. The garden of which I see most is a very good Illus­ tration of this kind of garden, the one that every plain, practical farmer may cultivate with profit to bls’ own pocket and much Ratirfaction for all who eat - at his table. This cheap and easy garden Is favor­ ably situated, to begin with, Tbe soil is good and the ground free from stones. It slopes slightly toward the south and is protected from Dorth winds by buildings, trees and at a little distance a low hill. It contains about three-quarters of an acre and furnishes two families with a practically unlim­ ited profusion of fine fresh vegetables of the best quality and hoi»e frulL Laid out entirely in long lines, the rowa far enough apart for going through with a cultivator, horsepower is relied upon almost exclusively for tbe culture of this garden. It has the same good, thorough attention that the neighboring cornfield gets and lit­ tle more. Clean tillage and frequent stirring of the Roll a're a matter of course, but with no refinements of tbe gardening art, nothing done for show or mere appearance. A sober, steady old farm horse and an equally steady plowman march up and down the long rows often enough to prevent any big weeds from exhausting the fertility of the soil. After the ground Is well manured, plowed and harrowed in the spring it Is marked off in long lines nnd culti­ vation kept up. with room left for succosHlve plautiugH of the more impor­ tant garden crops. I^ist year delicious green pout* were picked for thirty succcHslve daya. Green corn lasted still longer. From tbe first radish and the early spinach and lettuce to the last toruatu nnd last mess of lima beans the Hendon easily covers more than half the year, nnd during all this time the garden provides a very Important share of the food supply. Important to health and comfort and alw> from ghe point of view of dollars and cents. Can hr much tnd as good value be obtained lu any other way? The garden in question has two rows of raspberries nnd two of straw­ berries. productive, though not cared for n> a finished manner, and a row of peach trees along one side wall give In favorable years a few bushels of peaches. This garden does not Claim perfection. It lacks, for instance pn asparagna be<l. Melons have done fairly well In It, but for some reason the Hubbard squash bus been a fail­ ure. -The homely cabbage thrives, but Dot tbe more elegant and dainty cauli­ flower. Celery we do have up to late winter and plenty of parsnips left In the ground for the following early spring. This garden is not like a patent med­ icine—warranted to please* everybody. Some would not be satisfied without more. Others content themselves with much less. * For ItH planning and general over­ sight this garden depends upon a wo­ man. concludes Dorothy in Country Gentleman. ut4», they came upon .Evan Jones.

New York seized stuff being sold for baking powder which they found was made from alum mixed with ground rock and, dumped It into the river. The health authorities are thus tak­ ing effective means to prevent the in­ troduction into our markets of injuri­ ous substitutes in place of wholesome baking powders. „ As alum cost only two cents a pound, there is a great temptation for those manufacturers who make substitutes and imitation goods, to use it. Alum baking powders can be detected by the health authorities by chemical analysis, but the ordinary housekeeper, whose assistance in protecting the health of Lhe people is important, cannot make chemical examination. She may easily know the alum powders, however, from the fact that they are sold at from ten to twenty cents for a pound can, or that some prize—like a spoon, or glass, or piece of crockery, or wooden ware—is given with the powder as an Induce­ ment. As the people continue to realize. the importance of this subject and consum­ ers insist on having baking powder of established name and character, and as the health authoriues continue tbair vigorous crusades, the alum danger will, it is hoped, finally be driven from our homes.

The People Will Settle It The people are going to settle tbe trust question and settle it quickly, .. If they can settle it through the repu *publi_ can party, well and good. If not, they will assign the task to the democratic party. But the rapacity of the meat trust, striking as it does directly at every man's pocket, has opened the eye* of the public to the iniquity of all trusts. The people demand the repeal of all tariffs on products manufactured by the trusts. The plundering of the beef trust could be stopped in a day by such action. In the same way, the greater part of tbe plundering of every other trust could be stopped as speeoily. —To-Day. Not a Partisan Question. This is not a partisan question. One party would unquestionably have made as bad a mess ot the Philippines busi­ ness as the other. Perhaps it is not such a bad mess as many of us have come to imagine; but unless the administra­ tion senators change their tactics, and seek to uncover everything rather than conceal everything, they may rest aasured that voters will make a partisan ques­ tion of it next fall, and that the worst possible interpretation will be placed on the reluctance of the government to permit the whole truth to be made known—and this truth can be known only by giving tbe opposition the widest latitude in thia investigation.—Detroit Free Press. > . . ‘ & . ■ Beyond His Size.

An electric storm at aea is one of the alarming experiences to which a mari­ ner 1* exposed, but as a matter of rec­ ord It is one that la least fruitful in dis­ astrous results. As a rule few precau­ tion* are taken to guard against a stroke of lightning, especially In the merchant service. Ships of war are usually fitted with lightning conduct­ ors. a precaution made necessary by the explosives stored away in their magazines. But these safeguards are seldom seen on a merchant vessel, and, judging by the extreme rarity of tbe cases where they have been struck. Jack's claim that be Is safer on the ocean than on shore during an electric­ al disturbance must be admitted. It is a well established theory that one caught in a thunderstorm should not take shelter under a tall tree, espe­ cially if it stands In a clearing. Why lightning should strike an Isolated piece of timber on shore and spare it after it has been converted into a ves­ sel's mast is yet to be satisfactorily ex­ plained. Maa ha flaw Fall of Bale*. Manhattan Island is like an enor­ mous coal mine, with intricate galler­ ies and apartments underground. A large group of curious subterranean rooms and passages is to be found at the foot of Broadway, extending out laterally to the east and weal. An al­ most continuous line of them follows Broadway. Several of the banks and trust companies have offices fitted up below the crowded sidewalks, where rows of clerks work silently, Unmind­ ful of the rush and turmoil above their heads.

If a United States transport were to leave San Francisco for China tbe most logical course would seem to be straight west across (be north Pnclfic tn the land of the Boxers. But in reality the ship would be steered to tbe southwest along the equator and past tbe Philippines to tbe Asian coast. Thia course would several hundred miles longer, yet It would take tbe yesael to her destination much quicker than the straight course. In the one case she would be going with, the current; In the other she would be going against the current.

The Stearns faction, however, in several laps ahead of iU opponents when it boldly demands tbe enactment of a primary election law which will- make It less easy to procure a public office as one buys a Ml! of groceries. Tbe cam­ paign In Barry county has an issue at least. The dominant faction is opposed to Bliss and boodle, and it is in favor of Stearns and election reforms which will -put the check book out of politics.—De­ troit Evening Neks'. Tbe above astute comments on the re­ publican situation in Barry county are certainly amusing, showing as they do i how easy it is for those who view things at a distance to draw wrong conclusions from appearances. . The News should know that there has been no congressional convention in Barry county this spring—only A county convention to send delegates to the con­ gressional convention. It should also know that while the anti-Bllss faction controlled .the convention there was a strong undercurrent>of Bliss feeling out­ side of tbe city of Hastings. Further­ more we presume the News will be sur­ prised to learn that those anti-boodle resolutions “intended to increase the smart of defeat” were presented by a committee a majority of which was friendly to Bliss. Again, the Banner is opposed to Mr. Stearns as well as to Gov. Bliss, if its own statements are to be believed. Finally the News' conception of wbai the “issue” in Barry county is will cause all Barry county people to smile. Tbe real “issue”, so far as the two fac­ tious of the republican party in Barry county are concerned, is ndt Mr. Bliss nor Mr. Stearns nor Mr. Horton, not anti-boodle and election reform, but whether tbe Banner editors on the one side or a4»e)l known law firm on tbe other, shall rule. It is an issue that took its rise a year ago when the McOmber cases were under such sharp dis­ cussion—an issue that is purely person­ al and local. , But if the News will wait until tbe democratic county convention shall have been held it will find thatvthe real issue in Barry county will be—not the supremacy of either faction of the re­ publican party, but whether the county shall be redeemed from ring rule and placed in control uf genuine reformers and friends of good governmemt. Petty Malice Towards Gardener. . The threats which the friends of tbe administration are making of court martialing Major Cornelius Gardener reveal the depths of resentment which they feel towards this gallant soldier be­ cause be dared to make a report that was damaging to tbs military adminis­ tration in the Philippines. Major Gar­ dener's military career baa been highly creditable; his reputation as a soldier is tbe war department that, if true, shows that tbe treatment of the Filipinos by American officers and soldiers, has been, in some cases at least, cruel and ’ barbarous, and this seems to be a seri­ ous offense. . His report does not agree with the representations of the war department ; -that the process of Americanizing the ’ .people of our new possessions in the orient has been conducted humanely and successfully. According to Gardener the conduct of our military men in . the islands, so far as his observation goes, has been such as *o embitter and estrange the natives, instead of to con­ . ciliate them. Believing this, was it not commend­ able and in accordance with his duty rs civil governor to acquaint the depart­ . ment with the facts? Why then should . he be court-martialed, or even criticis... . ed? Is the army so holy and immacu­ late tbat it can do.nothing wrong: or . have the imperialists become such wor_ —pQWer they are hd to Lhe evils of militarism? ioubtedly, the talk of punishing nor Gardener for making a report dstent with the representations of M* department is prompted by re­ desire to punish the he has placed the administration position. It would r manly, to wait until the troth iy of tills damaging report were all question before Such threats the adminisGardener, ; i> uwred npoo, than. 1» hnwtaratdaa. gar IbM ll will bring lo light hwu that win w(r th* ooontr, u> Indignation. Them la good ground to belie.* that the admhtlatratkn haa been daoeirlng tbe country m to the policy which the mili­ tary government of the island* la pursulng. and that mean* of subduing the Filipinos are being used that would of the country, were they to be made known. Hence it is dangerous for the admlnistratlonlsts to investigate, and dan­ gerous for thorn to refuse to do so. Un-. doubted!y, however, it will be tbe wiser cdtrse for them to probe the charges to the bottom and let all the facts be made known. If American military officers In the Philippines have been guilty of cruelty, as is charged by Col. Gardener and others, they ought to be punished. If they have been maligned the facta should be made apparent, in order that justice may be done them. In either case the country is entitled to the facta and will be satisfied with nothing else. Any further evasion or equivocation on the part of congress in throwing the full light of day upon the doings of our army in the Philippines will only make the situation worse for the republican P*ny. _________________ One Case Ladie Lian Gotha comes in sealed pound packages only, thus in­ suring freshness, strength, flavor and uniformity.

Andrew Jackson Chase, after about eighteen months’ illness, died Tuesday morning at 2:30 o'clock, at his resi ­ dence about one mile south of this city. Deceased was born in New York state in 1832 and when two years old moved to Oueida county, Ohio. About 1860 he moved to Barry county. He has resid­ ed here off and on ever since. He was married when 24 years of age, and four children were born to them, three of them besides his wife, survive him, viz: Dwight and Arthur of this city and William of Lake Odessa. The funeral was held this forenoon at 10 o’clock. Win. Shaffer of Lake Odessa was re­ cently attacked by a vicious stallion and sustained injuries which may prove fatal. Before the horse was taken from the buggy it knocked the man down, but he managed to beat the ani­ mal off with a club. On reaching the stall the horse made another attack, knocking Shaffer down and trampling him. He yelled for help and his son came aldng with a lighted lantern with which he pounded the infuriated beast, frightened it, and it backed away, the man crawling to a place of safety. Shaffer’s right leg was terribly man­ gled and be was otherwise injured. Forty members of the women’s club accepted Mrs. Barber’s invitation to spend last Friday evening at her resi­ dence. Dr. C. H.

Democratic senators have not said '■ that they would not allow the Plyilippine jj. bill to be voted upon unless It is amendI cd to meet their views. There is yet no reason for them to announce any de­ cision on that. What they do say, and I what they intend to live up to, Is that they will agree to no date vote upon |the bill untlj every democratic senator . who desires to speak upon the bill has 1 been heard. It is, of course, not sur­ prising that the republicans should be anxious to close a debate that has been : as disastrous to them as that* on the •1 Philippines has been. This week, un» der orders from Mr. Roosevelt, they ■ have been seeking through their best . speakers to counteract the bad political effect the democratic showing up of Philippine affairs baa had. Not being able to refute the facts put before the ■. country by the democrats, the republlcan senators have entered upon an elaborate and labored defense of our army as a whole, Which, evtry intelli­ gent person knows has not been at­ tacked. It is the republican politicians who control the war department and the policy of this government in the Philippines who have been attacked and who will continue to be attacked belong as the present bad policy Is pursued. Republican yelling and beating of tom­ toms will not alter facts. - Nor will the shaking of the “bloody shirt”—this time McComas was the. shaker,—no matter how warmly it may cause southern sen­ ators to talk, serve to make the people forget the shameful policy thia govern-, meet has pursued in the Philippines. Mr. T. S. Alien of Lincoln, Nebraska, who is visiting Washington, thinks the next governor of ., that state will be a democrat. He said: “The republicans in Nebraska will probably meet' defeat this fall in the gubernatorial fight. Four or five men are Miked of for the democratic nomination. 8. Snfythe of Omaha, formerly attorney general of the state, is among the men who are talked of by the democrats. Congreastoan Stark is also a probable candidate, and Hon. R- D. Sutherland of Nelson, former member of congress, la also mentinned In connection with the democrat.f Because a woman does housework is no reason why she should have rough, red hands, with carelessly kept nail*. If not for their looks, then for comfort the hands should hive some care. Dishwashing will not hurt the hands .if they are uot put Into too hot water and are washed and rinsed well after­ ward and thoroughly i.ried. says the .Boston Traveler. The u .mtn who doe* not bare to work nnd bus plenty of time to take care of her bauds soake them in warm water every day before she trims her nails and polishes them. After washing dishes the hand* are well soaked, and It is a-good time to give a few minutes to trimming and cleaning the nails and pushing back the cuticle, to show the pretty white crescents and prevent hang nails. Nev­ er use a hard instrument . for cleaning the nails, as It roughens them and makes them much harder to keep clean. One needs a pair of curved nail sclfi sors, a nailbrush and a fine nail file Jf the nails are brittle, rub a little ol! or vaseline Into them at night Aftei cutting the nails rub the edges smooth with the file. If you wish to polish the nails, a pol laher may be bought, or a piece of chamois akin will answer the purpose. There Is a powder which helps the pol­ ishing, but only a little should be used, putting a little cold cream or vaseline on the nail first and not rubbing hard enough to heat the naiL After this the bauds should be washed to’remove al) the powder. If the hands are stained, tomato or lemon juice will- usually remove it When paring fruit If strips of cotton are wrapped about the forefinger and thumb they will prevent staining and cutting also. Children should be taught while young to -keep their hands tidy. The habit of caring for the hands and of brushing the teeth cannot be formed too’ young, for the effect will add much to the personal appearance of both ” child and adult. How to Relieve Palo, if women ______ would learn a few common sense rules for relieving suffering, there would be fewer mental.and physleal wrecks in the world, fewer men and women In thraldom to drugs which, while bringing relief, fasten upon the victim with a tenacity all can­ not shake off. In throat trouble cloths wrung from hot- water can be used with profit provided the patient 1* not confined to the bed. Under no consld-1 eration is it safe to use water about a patient in bed except In v^ater bags and bottles. Jt is heat, not moisture, that quiets pain, and wet cloths retain heat only a brief time, while making the bed damp and dangerous to health. Hot sarfdbags are good to place beside the body and limbs, as they fit Into the curves and are really restful. A relay of hot plates, wrapped in woolen cloth, will do wonders In giving relief to a patient Painful rheumatism of the hip. knee or ankle has been relieved often by these simple means. The hot plates are placed over the point of suf­ fering while the patient la snugly tuck­ ed In bed. and relief is sure to follow. H«w t« Xak« »ars«4 AlMiii.

MAKING BONELESS~HAMS~ Little though one may think, the process oi making a boneless ham is quite a fine art and one that requires no small degree of skill In the under­ taking. In fact It is not every one who. can “bone” a ham successfully. In the event a housekeeper unfamiliar with the art of removing the bone from hams were to undertake the job she would be almost certain to begin operations by first of all splitting the ham open and endeavoring to carve out the bone by cutting arouhd It. The re­ sult would/be failure and vexation of the worst sort, to say nothing of a ruin­ ed ham. The proper way to remove the bone would never suggest Itself to the average housekeeper. The operator stands the ham on end against a supporting block and pro­ ceeds to carve around the bone from one ehd as deep as It is possible for him to run his hand and knife down into the flesh and around the bone. Having reached the extreme limit (as far. In fact, as It Is possible to extend the knife), he reverses the ham and begins cutting around the J>one from the other end, cutting downward until he reaches the point that be attained in cutting from the end on which he began, the entire operation being scl entlfically correct and on the principle of skinning an animal The bone then slips out dear and smooth, free from any adhering flesh. As soon as this is done stout twins is wrapped around the ham apd drawn taut, completely closing the aperture left by the removal- of the bone. The twine Is thus made fast and the ham laid away for a day or two, at'the end of which:time the hole has closed so neatly that, in slicing the ham, it is difficult to determine the exact spot from which the bone was removed. Thia Is the proper mode of making boneless ham, and with a little prac­ tice any housekeeper can learn to do the work as well' ac a professional butcher. They #111 observe that first of all the bone Is surrounded by a tis­ sue, and by starting the operation from the ends they w|ll be surprised with what facility this tissue, dividing the bone from-the flesh, peels loose from the former. A CURE AND A FEE. Doetor tn conversation one, .day about the peculiar views that commercial men sometimes entertain about professional services Dr. S. Weir Mitchell told tae following story: > “A very wealthy man from the west came to consult me about an attack of vertigo. He said that he had just re-, turned from a trip to Europe, where be had consulted eminent specialists, but that they had failed to afford him any permanent relief. A physician In London,* be said, ‘asked me why I did not make an attempt to be cured near­ er home. 1 thought on my way out weat I would stop over to see you.’ , “ ‘Has any physician you have visit­ ed looked Into your ears?’. I asked. “‘No,’was his reply, - l , • “I made ac examination of his ears, removed some wax and a substance that appeared to be hardened remnants of cotton wooL I sent him away then and told Mm to come again In a day or two. He did so. " *WaH.’ he exclaimed, *1 am cured. How much do I owe you?* “ ‘About $50/ I replied. “As he drew a check be asked. ‘Did you know when you first examined my earn that you could cure me?’ “When 1 told him that 1 bad a very fail* conylctlon that I could, he said: ‘Wert, you are a blanked fool. You should have said to me: “I think 1 can cure you. and I will do so for $10,000. No cure, no pay.” You would have got your money without a murmur.' “ ‘Oh.* 1 aald. ‘if you feel that way about It there are several little chari­ ties In which I am Interested, and'- have the price yoe asked.

That night when the officer was fast asleep the Bhll robber cut a hole tn his tent. Crept noiselessly La and gently tickled th- bands and feet of the sleeping man. The officer stirred uneasily and turned over. In this way the Bhll was able to pull the , blanket* out little way. By repeating bis performance he dually succeeded in “Coaxing'’ the blanket completely from under the sleeper. When engaged, in hla nefarious Little games, the Bhll wears hardly any clothing, and his lithe body Is rubbed with oil to facilitate escape from any would be captors. When hotly pursued by the British troops, the robbers make use of a very clever device. They con­ ceal their scant clothing under their small round shields and scatter them about to resemble stones or bowlders; then, picking up a few twigs—if there are any to be had—they assume al! sorts of grotesque attitudes, their al­ most fleablesa limbs silhouetted against the dark night sky closely resembling the charred limbs of a tree. Absolute­ ly motionless, they bold their positions till the enemy has passed them. In this way a British subaltern In charge of n party 'sent to capture some Bhlls was considerably startled one evening The pursuit had completely lost sight of the robbers, and finally the party drew rein by a clump of gnarled and bent tree trunks, tired and hot from tbelr bard exertions. The of­ ficer In charge took off his hat and placed It on the end of a broken limb, when Instantly there was a wild scream of laughter, and the tree trunks sud­ denly came to life and vanished in the darkness.—London Express. HARD TO GET STARTED. Ulen Befflnnln* an Article. There Is a feeling of timidity that oftentimes overcomes a writer when beginning an article. As Ip writing a letter, It Is getting started that puzzles. It le the custom to begin with slow moving piston and work gradually into full speed until the flow of words is tree, and then the difficulty with some of us is to find the brake valve. Again, a writer sometimes discovers that Lis begiunlng Is a more fitting ending, and vice versa. The newspaper style is to throw general conclusions up strong under the headlines, while the sermon Izer reserves them until bis final cli­ max. Thackeray remarked once that he cotdd never tell exactly what be was going to aay until his pen waq In hand and under motion and then did not ftilly reallxe just wliat he was saying until It was written. There is a subconscious­ ness that shapes, writing as It does speaking. This, ! know, dlstuibs some well known theories of speaking and writing—as to weighing everything and then measuring it out as a druggist compounds a prescription—but my o!>servatlons are'that the preparation is more in getting full of a subject and then letting the.mind work free under the impulse of the dominating idea. There are as many ways and meth­ ods In writing and speaking as (here are individuals, and yet the fundamen­ tal law In the tr&nsmlqpiop of thought and speech runs largely In the same groove, whether it be the jargon of the Hottentot or the polished periods of the scholar. Human nature has its own primitive impulses that defy all rules of rhetoric and the power of ex­ pression—that is. the power, mind you —Is deeper seated thah any artificial formula of stylists,National Maga­ zine. A certain pompous and officious judge Ln a western town had just fined a young lawyer $10 for contempt of court. After it had been paid a grave old attorney walked up to the bench and lain down a ten dollar goldpiece. “What is that for?” asked the judge. . “For contempt your honor,” was the reply. “But I didn't fine you for contempt,’* answered the judge. “There must be some mistake.” “Oh. no. there isn't,” replied the old man. “1 have cherished a secret con­ tempt for this court for a long time, and I’m willing to pay for it’’—Chics go News.

Some otherwise excellent mica 1» found to be ruled or cut, as It were, with a series of perfectly straight lines, parallel to one aide of the crys­ tal, so that on being spilt the mica falls immediately into strips; or. again, instead of being striped or ruled, the mica is often deeply ribbed or corru­ gated parallel to the adjacent edges of the crystal, so as to give the appear­ ance of the letter A, or. rather, V, whence It Is termed “A mica.” As the ribbed portion lias to be cut away in the sheet, such mica is unprofitable unless the blocks be large. Wedge mica Is that tn which the block is ttflcker at one end than the other, the laminae partaking in the unevenness.

It was one of those peculiarly quiet erenings -when nothing keems to break the •tfllneM. Suddenly I felt, rather than saw, something moving near the veranda. I looked more closely and to my horror perceived an enormous lion stealing along the ground In the direction of my wife and child. My wife saw the crea­ ture at the same instant and, despite her terror, fortunately remained per­ fectly motionless and silent Scarcely knowing what to do. I has­ tily crept toward the s’de of the bun­ galow to the open window of my room, where I knew a loaded rifle was lean­ ing against the wall. I climbed !n at jfie window, sefaod the rifle and leaped by another window upon the veranda. There was no time to think. The Hon was within a few feet.of my dear ones and crouching for a spring. I called softly to my wife not to mpve and then fired. The ball passed directly over my boy's head and lodged in the forehead of the Hon immediately above the eyes and stretched film on the ground. There was an Instant of fearful sus­ pense.

Dear Father anu Mother: Will write you jurt a short note this morning as we are quite busy getting straightened around, preparatory to leaving here this afternoon. The re­ quest for assignment which I spoke about in a former letter has been grant­ ed, so Chet and I are now members of Troop D, 12th Cavalry,’starioned at El Paso, Texas. We leave here at 7:00 o'clock this evening for San Antonio, Texas, where we are to report to the commanding officer. I bxpect we will have to retrace our way, that is the last 600 miles of it, for we pass right through El Paso, which will make us in all about an 1,800 mile ride. We have Pullmans though, so it will just be an­ other-pleasure trip. Wilf write you as soon after our arrival a* I can. Wish you would notify the Herald and Journal of our change of address, as we now receive papers from both of-’them with the address printed upon little slips. Will try and give them a letter of our trip that they may publish. We hate to leave Palmatier and Robinson who are both in the tent now with us, but it can’t be helped. Riddel hates like sixty to see us go and I shall try to have him assigned with us after I get there. * * • Your loving son, Frank Engelhardt, Troop D, 12 Cavalry, Fort Bliss, El Paso, Texas. Hello, everybody! Glad I'm going to leave this darned camp. Chet. Obituary. The deceased, Samuel Williams, was born tn Batavia, Geoessee county, N. Y., January 26, 1830, and died at bis home near Delton, Barry county, Mich­ igan, May 15, 1902, making him 72 yeare and a few months old. His father’s family conslstad of five boy* and one girl. His brother, George and family, were the first to come to Michigan, in 1852, and he is the first one to depart this life. . He was married to Miss Clarissa Pen­ nock in 1870 and ever since has resided pn the farm where we now are gather­ ed. One daughter blessed their union aud was present to help care for him in bis last hours. He was a kind husband, indulgent father and a irood neighbor. No one will ever be able to fill his place tn the home or in the community in which he has so long resided: But thus it Is, we are all journeying on to the Great Be­ yond, where partings never come and sorrows are unknown. Mbs. S. W. Champions of Minnesota. As announced last week the Le Sueur, Minn., high school debating team won the state championship over the Glenwood high school team, and are now owners ot the Minneapolis Journal cup. The debate was held in Minneapolis. Of the superintendent of the Le Suetfr school, F._ L. Bauer, formerly a resident of this city, the Le Sueur News says: ... • ■ “To Prof. Bauer, superintendent of the school, much credit la due for the success of tbe class. He developed and trained them to the work that has brought them state honors. His first year of school work in oar city has beep a marked success clear along the line and this honor gathered in beside is indeed gratifying. Le Sueur needs to watch him closely to keep him at the head of ita schools. He will be sought elsewhere on the record he has made.” It is' remarkable that the decision of the judges in the last contest, as in contests with the high schools ot Zum­ brota, St. Peter, Wells and St. Paul, waa unanimous. Judge Jaggard in preaentlng tbe cup to Le Sueur said it waa the beat high school debate be ever beard. ■ : -•:. „• ’.j't:-’!7 Hastings naturally feels proud over the oucceas attained by tbe Le Sueur debating team, as one of her sons is in a great measure responsible for it. The Herald congratulates Mr. Bauer and hia debating team. " Caution!

The drain or “Big Dredge” as it is more generally known, is an extension of the old Collier drain of Eaton county completed two years ago and begins, at a point in Woodland at a point where old drain stopped aoout a mile from Eaton county running 8i miles through Woodland and Castleton into Mud Creek and Thornapple lake. Contract for construction, of this drain waa let Oct 22, '01 and was taken by L. T. Handings’Sons of Vincennes, Ind., and the contract price at which this work is being done is 93.25 per rod. Work was commenced in April and the big dredge has been going along con­ tinuously since, and is now at a point on the town line bptween Woodland and Castleton about four miles east of Coats Grove. ' , The channel as completed is 24 feet wide on the bottom and the average depth of the portioo so far completed is nearly seven feet. Farmers can best gain an idea of the work involved in the excavation of a single rod of this big channel by comparing it with the excavation of a cellar 24x33, and doing it for 93.25, and besides tbe excavation the contracts call for replacing of ail iron bridges or piers as when removed. The completed portion is as nearly as practicable straight with sharp, dearly defined banks, confining a rapidly rush­ ing stream of water traveling dt a rate that would tax tbe best efforts of a good walker to keep pace wUh. The number of acre* of land in Barry county assessed for benefits as shown by assessment roll is 26,500—the aver­ age cost of individual assessment is about twenty-seven (27) cent* per acre, or to extend more plainly on a farm of »ay 40 acres would ba 910,80. The amount on the township at large for the townships of Woodland aud Castleton amounts to a tax of about it mills tor two years, or to extend to a more defi­ nite conclusion on a farm, say assessed valuation of 92,400.00 the tax would be 93.20 a year for two year*. * The contract to complete this 8j mile* as being executed was let for 910,­ 000.00; to this amount 10 per cent was added as is required by law, so that for 911,000.00 the people will have this drain and 91,000.00 in money; The dredge proper as distinguished from the ‘Mraln” is worth a trip out there to see and should you go out a bit of detail will give you quicker appreci­ ation of its enormous power.

George G. Boardman, late private in tbe Twentieth Infantry, was an inter­ esting witness before the Senate Phil­ ippine committee this week. He said our soldiers were much discouraged on account of the kind of food issued to them and that the officers did not ob­ ject to tbe men going into the houses of natives and taking food when they were hungry; and while on the same subject he said: “The whole tendency of the army was to make the meh any­ thing but pleasant toward the natives. They used the gun to shoot with rather than to preach the gospel with.” Senator Hanna got what he asked for in tbe case of hb friend Rathbone, who was convicted of complicity in the Cuban postal frauds, although to give it to him Mr. Roosevelt had to order his chum, Gen. Leonard Wood, to do what he knew would not be I agreeable to him. Thb case is remarkable in more than one respect. Mr. Roosevelt knew that it would necessarily make a lot of talk for him to order Gen. Wood to amend a Cuban law less than a week before the surrender of American authority on the bland, and nothing but pressure of the strongest sort would have caused him to do so. The amend­ ed law gives the Cuban Court of Ap­ peal? authority to give Rathbone a new hearing and an opportunity to in­ troduce new testimony. It is expected that testimony will be produced that would not have been considered safe, James D. Malcolm, an old resident and well-known lawyer of Caledonia, and Nellie Marsh were driven out of Caledonia Monday evening by about 200 ladies and gentlemen ofihe village.

An American marksman, paying a visit to Chaylottc Amalia, amused tbe governorby an exhibition of hls iklll with tbe rifle. Sitting on the veranda of the government bouse, he said that he cut felth a bullet the signal bak yards on tbe flagstaff of the fort and lower tbe Danish standard to the ground. A» tbe lines were almost in­ visible in the distance tbe governor was willing to bet that be could not do It Tbe shot rang out and tho flag fell. Presently.^ horseman dashed up.

Nlxon’s Retirement. The retirement of Lewis Nixon from tbe management of Tammany Hall in­ dicates one of two things: Either Tam­ many is so corrupt as to disgust and dis­ courage Mr. Nison in hte attempt to lift it to a respectable plane of political ac­ tion; or he bas become tired of the strenuous life of a political leader and te content to step down into the ranks and leave thte work for some one to whom it is more congenial. In either case his withdrawal at the present time must be regarded as unfortunate for the ' democratic party. There te no doubt that Tammany te a potent factor in the politics of the na­ tion’s metropolis and therefore te in a position to influence the course, and possibly decide tbe fate of the whole democratic party. Certain it te that tbe old party stands in need at tbe pres­ eat time, as never before in its history, of the harmonious and hearty co-opera­ tion of all the forces that make up its ’ policy. If Tammany with its disciplined forces and its bold upon the masaea of New York, could be emancipated from the evil ways into which- such, men as zQrpker and VanWyck haye led it, ita f>- * poweHp shaping the course of the party would be very great. Undoubtedly it was Mr. Nixon’s ambition to reform and rehabilitate this splendid political or­ ganization, and if be has retired be­ cause he found the task Impossible that fact te highly regrettable. Locally considered, Mr. Nixon’s sneceu would have m^ant much for better government in Greater New Yore. His retirement will have's depressing effect upon tbe cause of municipal reform in a city that present 'greater problems In the science of good government than any other city in the world. It is to be hoped however that the re­ tirement of one reformer from the lead­ ership of Tammany will not result in giving'the place to another Croker. , . :V ; Oh, yes Teddy is becoming an expert in looking out for hte pete. Gen. Leon­ ard , Wood, whose Cuban assignment expired by limitation on the 20th Inst, has been selected as one of the army officers so attend thte year’s maneuvers of the German army, and adjutant Gen­ eral Corvin as another.

ALL the power of the. republican bosses of the House having failed to prevent the passage of the bill for tbe admission of Arizona, New Mexico, and Oklahoma, they have now centered their efforts to keep these territories out of the Union on tbe Senate, fbr no other reason than tbe fear that they would elect democratic Senators. that they may be obtained.

Favorable mention of the meeting of the Women’s Club on May 16th was □ot intentionally left unnoticed in our last issue. * Tbe papers were of an ex­ cellent character, and consisted of “Home Life In the Colonies” by Mrs. Margaret Potter. “Would jhe Ballot for Women Prove a Gain or Goss,” by Mrs. Belle Burton, and “Primitive Music in America” by Mrs. Mar*h& Wightman. We regret that circum­ stances delayed this notice of a meet­ ing that was worthy of careful mention, as it was highly commendable in every respect. . . . The piano forte recital given by the Misses Clara Hendershott and Margery Keables at the home of Mr. and Mrs. R. I. Hendershott last Friday evening was highly creditable to these young pianists as well as to the Lhelr teacher, Mrs. Archie McCoy. The program was made up entirely of classical music which of course added to the difficulty of the rendition. Both of the young ladies showed •’careful, conscientious study, and ability to interpret Von Weber, Godard and Litolff in a man­ ner very gratifying to their fpiends, and those who were fortunate enough to be present last Friday evening en­ joyed the program most heartily. At 3:00 p. m. on yesterday, at tbe high seboool in this city, occurred a very pleasant ceremony, which com­ ing in tbe nature of a surprise from their many enthusiastic friends in this city, was all the more appreciated. At the hour named, Rev. H. A. Noyes on ■behalf of the donors, presented to Miss Alice Currer, Henry Currer and M.C. Doherty, a fifteen Jeweled Elgin watch in twenty-year best Boss case. Upon tbe case of the watches h engraved “State Championship H. S. D. L. 1902.” To City Superintendent of Schools F. L. Bauer was, presented a diamond shirt stud. Accompanying the gifts was a list of the donors. Tbe recipi­ ents are heartily worthy of the testi­ monials they have received.—Le Sueur (Minn, j Sentinel, May 24.

But the typical British ambassador is usually a man grown gray in the foreign office, a man familiar with tbe niceties and oonventiooalties at international intercourse, a man of polished manners and refined tastes, of keen knowledge of men and governments, urbane in demeanor, but sharply alive to the in­ ter ata of the government which he rep­ resents. Such a man was Lord Pauncefote, and he has served his country at Washington with marked success. There can be no doubt that his careful, • conciliatory policy during critical periods in the relations between Great Britain and the United States has con­ tributed largely to the present friendly feeling existing 'between the two na­ tions.

Current Opinion. No one is likely to dispute, in private conversation at least, the statements as to political corruption in Michigan made yesterday by ex-Justice Cahill, of the supreme court, Id his Memorial day address at Lansing. When he. a former soldier of the Union armies, de­ clared that this danger is “more insidi­ ous and more to be feared than armed foes with muskets in their hands,” he St the case strongly; but not more so sn the facts justify. And he put bis finger on the only remedy, and pointed directly to the shame of bis state, when he said in closing: ' “In no case should party loyalty be put above personal honor and devotion to principle, and when the leaders of parties come to know by experience that the people will follow them only so far as their flag is clean, they will noon cease to trail it in the mire of po­ litical corruption.”—Detroit Evening News. , ' WUlie Andrew*, Hi»tinir».

Professional Directroy. MarrlaseabFe Girls Ii In France a man will not or cannot marry a girl, says the correspondent of the London Times, without a propor­ tionate dowry. This Is the case from the top to the bottom of society, from the artisan to the tradesman, from the tradesman to the. financier and from the financier to the aristocrat. On the amount of the dowry depends the facil­ ity of marriage. A girl without a dowry finds no ap­ preciation for her intelligence, culture, force of character or even frequently beauty, however great, if she cannot bring her husband sufficient money to meet her own expenses, thus enabling a man after marriage, as during bache­ lorhood, to consider only his own self­ ish necessities. Hence arises not only the rareness of marriage, but the rareness of large families, for these would oblige the husband to add to his wife’s income in order to maintain them. attention. DINTI8T8- F.

On the threshold of her new home a bride In Bervja is presented with a plate of bonbons, one of which she and tbe bridegroom share between them, the divided bonbon signifying that no bitterness shall divide them. A siev? of wheat corn is also given to the bride. Of this she takes three handfuls, throws It over her head, emptying the sieve upon tbe ground. Tbe scattered corn denotes that the bride brings joy and prosperity into her new home.

He is ushered into tbe midst of tbe family circle. Without a word he walks up to the young lady and lays the cake on tbe table before her. Tbe rest of the family affect not to notice anything unusual and continue their work or their reading. The young man turns aside and talks to the father or mother on some very ordinary subject, keeping bls eyes eagerly fixed on tbe girl while he is conversing. It she ac­ cepts bls offer, she takes up the cake and eats it If she Is a coquettish damsel, she tortures the young man by turning It over and playing with it be­ fore she decides to taste It and then en­ raptures him by eating. It to the last crumb. If, on the other band, she wishes to have nothing more to do with her admirer, she puts It back on the table. The young man takes up the'cake and, with a “Vaarvoal byzamen.” leaves the bouse. The matter is then kept a profound secret by both te mlllee, and tho outer world never bears of It In place of a wedding cake In Holland wedding candles are given —“braid suiters” they are called. They are passed around by children and are served in flower trimmed bas­ kets. • Bride pudding is the name of the piece de resistance served at a Norse peasant wedding. This is not brought on the tal)le until the last day of the festivities, three' or five days being given up to feasting and merrymaking. Tbe appearance of the bride pudding la the signal of dismissal, and at tfce cloae of the feast the guests say fare­ well. presenting at the same time their gifts, which consist of cash. This the bride receives, the bridegroom present­ ing each donor with a glass of wine. Partaking of two tiny glasses of wine is all tbe ceremony necessary to make a marriage in some Chinese provinces, provided a quantity of fireworks are set off. These are' to wake the “great joss" from his sleep that he may wit­ ness the ceremony. At a Hebrew wedding man and wife sip from one cup of wine, symbolizing participation In the joys and pain of earthly life. Tbe emptied goblet is placed on tbe floor aud crushed Into a thousand pieces by the bridegroom, who thus sbpws that be will put his foot on all evils that may enter the family circle. At an Egyptian wedding feast meat is not eaten because of tbe belief that It would lead to future bickerings be­ tween them. Eggs, fruits and sweets are served. The first meal in tbe new house cannot be touched until, after every device known to the bridegroom, the bride has been at last induced to speak. Once she utters a word, he daps hit bands, and supper is brought to them T' parried by candy is tbe plan In Bur­ ma. Of all marriage rites this takes tbe palm for conciseness aud sweet simplicity. Here the dusky lady takes the initiative. Seeing a youth who pleases her. she offers him a sweet If he accepts her proposal, he promptly eats the. token of affection, and they are thereby made man and wife. In the act of eating alone this most prim­ itive rite consists. If the youth be not favorably disposed, he remarks with all gallantry that that particular candy is not to his taste, and the matter Is ended.

The net result of the experiments thus far is that we have found nothing more effective than carbon bisulphide or cheaper than strychnine poison; A tablespoonful of carbon bisulphide placed upon some absorbent material, ns cotton, dry horse manure or a piece of corncob, and rolled down the prairie dog burrows Is effective In killing the animals. It ia best immediately to cover the bole with a sod and stamp down firmly. I found by experiment that four parts of gasoline mixed with one part of carbon bisulphide is about as ef­ fective as the carbon bisulphide alone and n<?t nearly as expensive. The mix­ ture is used in tbe same manner as carbon bisulphide al&ne, but a some­ what larger dose Is needed. Strychnine Poison.—Dissolve one and a half ounces of strychnia sulphate In a quart of hot water. And a quart of slrui>— molasses, sorghum or thick sug­ ar and water—and a teaspoonful of oil of anise. Thoroughly heat and mix the liquid. While hot pour it over a bush­ el of clean wheat and mix completely. Then stir in two or more pounds of fine cornmeal. The quantity of corn­ meal needed will depend upon the amount of extra moisture present. There should be enough to wet every grain of the wheat and no more. Care should be taken that there is no leak­ age from the vessel In which the wheat is mixed. Let the poisoned grain stand over night, and distribute It in tbe early morning of a bright day. Use a tablegpdonful of tbe wheat to each hole oc­ cupied by prairie dogs, putting it near tbe mouth of the burrow in two or three little bunches. Do not put out the poison in very cold or stormy weather. It. will keep for a consider­ able time and Is much'more effective after a cold period, as tbe animals are then hungry and eat the grain readily. A bushel of wheat should poison 1,000 to 1.200 holes.

Including Birming­ ham, Montgomery, Atlanta, Greenville, Charleston and other points, was the outgrowth of the first International good roads congress which was held at Port Huron, Mich., late last year. Thia Important congress of good road* peo­ ple was called together at the sugges­ tion of the “good roads" senator of Michigan, H. S. Earle of Detroit Del­ egates from a score of states and near­ ly every province of Canada were pres­ ent Here is where the “good roads train" had Its birth, and soon after President W. H. Moore of the National Good Roads association of Chicago be­ gun his arrangements for the operationn of the special This train start­ ed from New Orleans early last spring ajid worked Lt* way north to Chicago, making a dozen stops by the way for the purpose of constructing a sample of good roads ami showing how essentlal to their building Is the use of mod­ ern roadmaking machinery, with which the train was completely equipped. One of the most remarkable pieces of apparatus was the earth excavator and elevator. This machine was drawn by eight pairs of mules and would take dirt from the side of the road and move it and spread it in the middle of the proposed road at the rate of four cubic yards per minute under favora­ ble conditions By meaps oj thlg ma- gether with road rollers, stone crushers and other apparatus, the expert road­ builders on this trip at one point made a half a mile of good road in ten hours. The worlc M this first good roads special was so successful and the Illi­ nois Central railroad was so well pleased with tbe results that President Moore had several opportunities to take charge of good roads trains to be ran over other large railroad systems in different parts of the country and final­ ly accepted the invitation of the South­ ern railroad to take a train through the south. The success of the train was more than assured from the beginning, for before it started from Washington on Nov. 1 requests had been received from more than 200 cities and towns to build a sample of road within their limits, but only ten stops were made on the trip. The train, with Its load of modem roadmaking machinery and corps of expert roadbuilders, was received with the greatest enthusiasm, and no less Tomperstare In Carta* Cheese. than seven state good roads associa­ The results of experiments at the tions, as many county organizations Jtapv York state station show very con- aud ten samples of good roads have re­ Jffislvely that lovr^teinperatures for sulted.

A trick .1, betue hwched for th* voter, ot tbi'oouotty bj- the eepubtin r rate™, There was a conference today between ■cxneot the kicking republican sena­ tors and the administration men, with a view to so arranging matters as to pre­ sent at least the appearance of party harmony. Senator Beveridge must feel heartily ashamed of the par} he plajad. on the floor of the senate, In ths latest attempt to smirch the reputation of Gem Nelson A. Mlles, if his sense of honor to what it ought to be. A prominent republi­ can characterized the act of Senator Beveridge, In asking Senator Culbert­ son if Gen. Mlles furnished him with the copies of private Wier’s charges against Lieut. F. P. Arnold of Gruel treatment of Filipino prisoners, and Cape. West’s report thereon, which he had read in the senate just before the Philippine bill was voted upon, as“the most cowardly thing ever done od the floor of the senate, " and be Is by no mtans alone In that opinion. I^was because these copies furnished addition­ al and undeniable proof that the war department had suppressed official re­ ports relating to , cruel treatment of Filipinos that Senator Beveridge was put forward to make the attempt of try­ ing to distract public attention by mak­ ing a charge against Gen. Miles, know­ ing that be could not reply. Naturally enough, Senator Culbertson at first considered the question so impertinent that he declined to pay any attention to it, but on second thought without changing his opinion as to its impertin­ ence, be made a statement, in order that hto silence xmight not be miscon­ strued, In which he said that the papers were given to him by “a'gentleman absolutely and wholly disconnected with the army or the war deportment, and were given to me without any suggestion on my part. They did not, of course, coma to me directly, and, so far as I know, not indirectly, from Gen. Mlles.” Gen. Miles recommended the court-martial of Arnold last year, but the recommendation was ignored. Representative Jones, of Virginia, made it very unpleasant for Buencanimo, a former member of Agulnaldo's cabinet, wlm has been brought to Wash­ ington by the administration to be made a star witness in behalf of the admin­ istration’s Philippine policy before the house and senate committees, by confronting him with a copy of a cer­ tified address, written and signed by himself, to the American congress, in which he declared that President MoKiuley was seeking by force of arms to impose American sovereignty on the Philippines and that independence was the only thing that would make life and property safe in the Philippines. In other words, Representative Jones has proven that this wily Filipino was an advocate for independent until he had his opinions changed by being placed on the administration pay roll.

At the meeting of the National Con­ ference of Charities and Correction in Detroit, June 2, 1902, Dr. Baker, secre­ tary of the Michigan State Board of Health said:’ “Not one of the common, so called 'contagious1 diseases is usually contracted by simple contact of the unbroken surface of a human body with the surface of an Infected human body. Therefore the term ’contagious,’ im­ plying as it dose the spread of disease by contact, should be obsolete.

The people banking laws at the present time, and have a right to ask to be delivered from the very fact of the unpopularity of the that sort of a surplus. proposed measure will prompt congress to kill it. * Oh, no! the republicans are not Going too Far. The state tax commission, (n trying to force a bank cashier at Port Huron to tell how much money patrons of tbe bank have on deposit, has aroused the strenuous opposition of the bankers of the state. The cashier declares that he will go to jail befora he will reveal the business affairs of his clients and the bankers in their convention on board the steamer, City of Mackinac, are re­ ported to have approved the Port Huron man’s position. Possibly the tax commissioners have the law on their side in this matter but it may well be doubted whether their course is either wise or just. The re­ lations between the banker and his client are necessarily confidential and there is no more reason why those re­ lations should be pried into and made public than that similar relations be­ tween a physician and his patient, or a lawyer and his client, should be sub­ jected to publicity. Such methods as, tbe tax commissioners are resorting to, ■supposing them to be entirely well inteutloned, are Inquisitorial -and offen­ sive, and must result In making the board so unpopular as to-eventually re■auit in its abolishment.

The unique figure in the “good roads world” ta State •Senator Earle of De­ troit Se was at one time connected with the department of good roads in­ quiries at Washhigton as an expert which office be was ■obliged to reitaqniah upon his election to the senate. He has a scheme which if put into practice.would soon bring the millen­ nial4awn of good roads, says the Phil­ adelphia North American. In explain­ ing his scheme he said: “First I wquld have the government make good road maps of each county in the United States, showing all the public highways. I, would have bad roads printed In red, fairly good ones In bhte and the Improved roads In black. These would be published in pocket form and sold for 5 cents each at all postoffloes. This would in effect com­ pel every farmer to see to it that his road was improved, for lie would soon see the advantage of having his farm located on one of the Improved roads. “Second, I would levy a tax of 60 cents a year on every vehicle In the land. Thia alone would yield an an­ nual revenue of several millions. It would furnish all the funds necessary for the purpose. Ths tax would be a trifle and would be cheerfully paid by most people so long as it was to be de­ voted to the betterment of highways/* TMe Valne of GooU Roods.

These influence*, under th* stress of strong competition, have re­ duced long distance freight rate* to a reasonable level There la one phase of this transporta­ tion problem, however, which has ap­ proached no satisfactory solution—that is the matter of wagon road haul. Aa baa already been said, while the great­ er part of our farm products travels by steamship, canal or railway for a por­ made of one inch boards, just for tion of the journey to market, virtually enough from the barn so that a wagou can be driven between. Tbe alfalfa hay Is put into the barn through these doors, and when wanted for stock a wide shoot is used, reaching from the barn door to the rack. By these means the hay Is conducted from the barn to the rack without loss. These shoots are removable and can be taken out when the barn is being filled or for any other reason. Tbe work of feed­ ing tbe stock la also greatly lessened, as It consists simply in throwing the hay into the shoot and allowing it to slide down Into tbe rack. SILO TALK. in answer to a correspondent John Gould says in Ohio Farmer; It iz not imperative that the contents of a silo be lowered two inches per day. It would be difficult In many instances to force a certain number of cattie to eat that much. We have never fonnd any trouble where one inch daily Is fed. To dlvlde-a ten by seventeen foot silo into tito pita would make them very small, and the friction on tbe walls would make It difficult to get the silage very compact. B’ou would only have 170 surface felt of silage, and 225 is not considered n verj’ great surface to feed from. We would advise against parti tion. Plank with grooved edges set in “cleat runs” against tbe waUs makes a very good partition. Better make your silo corners round­ ed by nailing narrow boards across tbe corners and round them in to a depth of four inches and cut up in tbe cor­ ners with the narrow lining or ceiling and have no joints or semicorners. It you do set up beveled plank tn the cor­ ners. fill in behind them with thin ce­ ment mortar; otherwise you will have an air shaft in the corners to let air Into your silage. Use narrow Georgia pine flooring to eell up your silo, two and three-quarter inch width*. Nail well, and while painting the groove* might help some It will prove of little worth If the floor Ing is well put on and draw nailed. The manhole doors, two by two feet, cut so ss to Lave the jambs come on the girth*, made snug fitting, opening on the inside, are as satisfactory as any. I think the small kerneled Virginia white corn is the best of ail the varie­ ties grown in northern Ohio. It grows strongly and ears profusely, matures for the allo by Sept 20 and carribs a great amount of sugar, about four times aa much as m.t corn. We much prefer planting corn for silage in drills three and a half feet apart and a kernel each six inches in the row. A grain drill can be used with success, but It doe* not come up ao evenly, in as perfect rows, and does not cultivate as ' nicely as the straight planter rows. For silage corn prepare the ground two weeks or more before planting^ Work it deep and make it mellow. Harrow every few days to kill weeds before planting Plant two Inches deep. Harrow < r use tbe weeder until tbe corn is five or six Inches high, and cultivate very shallow and allow the unbroken roots to grow a* near the surface as poarible. The drier tbe weather the oftener tbe shallow, fine, level culture should be given to the crop. ;• \ Highly Bred 8ee4 Corn. TO MARKET ON A GOOP BOAD. all of them are conveyed for some dis­ tance over the public highways. It la unfortunate that this Is often the most expensive part of tbeir journey. It haa been shown by mathematical demon­ stration that it costs more to move a bushel of wheat or a ton of bay ten miles over the average country roads of the United States than to transport tbe same burden 500 miles by railway or 2,000 miles by steamship. It has happened many times in dlf ferent parts of the country that farm era bpve let crops go to waste b^caum the cost of hauling them to tbe nearest market or railway shipping point ovei wretched and ill kept roads amountec to more than could be realized for then afterward, whereas if good roads ot which heavy loads could be hauled hac been at hand tbe same crops could hav< been marketed at a small profit to th< producer, white the economic gain re suiting from their application to usefu purposes would have been very ronaid srable. Doubtless tbe best way to keep an earth road, or any road, for that mat ter. in repair is by the use of wide tires on all wagons carrying heavy burdens. Water and narrow tire* aid each other in destroying streets, mac­ adam. gravel and eartb roads. Nar row tires are also among the most de •tractive agents to tbe fields, nasturei and meadows of farms, white, on the other hand wide tires are roadmakers. They roll and harden the surface, and every loaded wagon become* in effect a road roller. Nothing *o much tendf to the Improving of a road as the con­ tinued rolling of Its surface. Teats made at the experiment stations in Utah and Missouri show that wide tire* not only Improve the surface of roads, but that under ordinary circumstances less power is required to pull a wagon on which wide tires are used. ■ THE DETROIT EOIN6 REWS MORNIRG TRIBURE will do H. -A > An advertisement* ao- *l«J 7VU UM News and M Chiap, JiimuM ud Sipui Muy In effect Juda 1. 1902.-—Standard time.

From the regions around the north and south poles there are perpetually starting on journeys, which may be long or abort according to the currents of the ocean, a great number of ice­ bergs. Many of these ice hills are of large else and wander far before they are at last melted by the beat of tbe tropical seas-into which they have been carried. Bergs setting out from Baffin bay. up Greenland way, have traveled as far as tbe Azores before vanishing forever—that 1* to say. some 2,500 miles or even more.

Tbe root* of tbe hair need to be exercised to give them strength and tbe scalp exercised tii keep it elastic sod looee. A woman’s hair is exercised in tbe dreasing. The pulling keeps the scalp loose. If women slwuld cut their hair and wear their bat* a* tight as men de. there would be as many bald women as men. Men should wear light hats and wear them do longer than is neeessary, changing tbe hat’s position to relieve the pressure and to giva tbe fresh air access to tbe scalp. If the hair seem* weak, do nnt cut It as cloeely as you have before. Pull It dally to strengthen the roots and stim piste the scalp. Wash the hair only once a month. Tbe frequent washing robs the roots of the required nourish ment. The *calp should receive scrupu tons attention, and If the best bristi* brushes are used nlgbt and morning the practice not only will help to keep tbe hair and scalp clean, but will give tbe friction required for the scalp to ope* the oil glands and nourish the root*. Rinse the hair after washing three or four times thoroughly, dry and give a sun bath. If tbe hair is naturally dry, dip tbe fingers In pure olive oil for the massage. To promote a healthy condi­ tion of tbe hair and prevent baldness and premature grayness nothing equals massage. The movement used Ln massage for the scalp is simple. Place the thumbs at the base of the skull and use tb« four fingers of each baud, with which to knead firmly. Push the fingers koto the scalp forward and at tbe same time In a rotary movement, kneading firmly up over the crown of the bead and from the temple Ln a like manner, cov­ ering the entire bead. All scalp sage should be accompanied by tonics. Here are a few formulas used prominent physician: For falling hair: Eau de cologne, 2 ounces; tincture cantbarldes. 2 drams; oil of lavender and oil of rosemary, each 10 drops. Shake well and use at least twice a day. Quinine tonic: Sulphate of quinine, 20 grains; bay ram, 4 drams; glycerin, 4 drum*; tincture cantbarldes, 2 drams; tincture caprlcum. 2 drams; distilled water to make 16 fluid ounce*. Mix and dissolve and let stand twenty-tour hours. Then filter. If color is desired, add red eaunders. For oily hair; Witch hazel, 2 ounces; alcohol, 2 ounces; distilled water. 1 ounce; resorcin, 40 grains. Rub well into scalp every night. Dandruff: Bay rum, 5 ounce*; tincture cantbarldes, 1 ounce; olive oil, 1 ounce. For oily hair, add ammonia, 1 ounce. Ammonia, soda or borax Irritates scalps with dandruff and never should be used in the shampoo. home in the best manner, says tbe PbII«d»lpbl» Record.

Irregular care Is almost as bad as no care at alt Tbe lamps should be kept perfectly clean, and they should be filled every day without fall, or else they should not be used. A partly filled tamp la the lamp that Is apt to explode. If tbe wick Is rubbed clean every day, there will not be danger of broken de smoked chimneys, that will surely oc­ cur with a neglected lamp. A small dishpan should always be kept for washing the different parts of the lamp. A soft cloth and plenty of soap will keep the chimney In good or­ der. . Let a certain part of tbe day be set aside for this daily duty and wben the task Uss been accomplished put all the necessary articles on tbe tray where they belong ana put the tray at once tn its place, where It will be ready for tbe next day's work. A green shade is best for tbe eyes, and this should always be well consid­ ered before the psMhase, Is made.

It la difficult to keep It clean. It should be re-enameied and can be done at slight expense. Tbe first thing to do is to scrub tbe tub with a strong solution of soda and wa­ ter. Let It dry, and apply the first coat of enamel; dry again for two days, and apply tbe second coat After twentyfour hours, the time necessary to dry perfectly, fill it with cold water and let it stand for six hours.

His sphere was outside that of the great it leaders of statecraft and battle, but it was none the less effective and indispensable; in the emergencies of the early days, before evehti had shaped the pol­ icy of union, he was the ready arm to execute the will of Han­ cock, Adams and Warren, and was often as well their guide -to the temper and resources of the body politic, of which he was an undisputed leader. Oppression drove his ancestc rs from their native home in France, but the spirit which they be­ queathed him was undaunted, and under the rugged influences of a new country met new op­ pression with determined resist­ ance. It is significant of the transition from the French Hu­ guenot refugee to the American citizen that Apollos Rivoire, who was born'in France in the year 1702, and when thirteen years of age arrived in Boston to be ap­ prenticed to a goldsmith, in his early manhood piodified his name to Paul Revere to suit the con­ venience of neighbors whose Don't fool your time away looking at anything else, but come and see a Lehr.

Judge Durand has made a formal and what he doubtless considers a final state­ ment that, under no circumstances, could he accept a nomination to any Gbiic office; but in that statement be a made it still more clear that his reJhlsai should not be respected. He says . that, since his name was mentioned in oounertion with the democratic guber­ natorial nomination, he has been re­ ceiving letters from every section of the state urging him to become a candidate. In the course of a few days this oorrespoodence had assumed such proportions that, in connection with a large volume ■ of favorable press comment, it seemed to Judge Durand, to call for a statement ‘ from him. That fact In itself—since eorrespqndhnce and comment were > wholly spontaneous—is splendid testi­ mony ta the confidence and enthusiasm ■ which his candidacy would arouse and the popular hope it would create of res­ ' caiug the state from incompetents, plunderers, rippers and ringsters.— Detroit Evening News.

The Herald is pleased to announce that it has made arrangements by which it is able to offer to Its readers a high class monthly magazine, In com­ bination with the Hebald at a merely nominal price. The magazine with which we have made this arrangement Is the Pilgrim, an excellent literary periodica', published at Battle Creek. This magazine has recently come into the hands of a new company who are hustlers. They are sparing no pains to make the Pilgrim a high class mag­ azine and they are succeeding admira­ bly. It compares favorably with the leading periodicals of its kind, such as the Ladies' Home Journal and the Sat­ urday Evening Post, both in typograph­ ical appearance and in literary merit. For the sake of placing this excellent monthly within the reach of all our readers, we have decided to make them the following remarkable offer: The regular subscription price of tbe Pilgrim is one dollar. All who pay one dollar for the Herald and TWEN­ TY-FIVE CENTS ADDITIONAL will receive the Pilgrim one year, begin­ ning with the September number. The Pilgrim will be sent direct from the publishers. This is a splendid opportunity for our readers to secure a fine magazine at a merely nominal cost.

Frank Jones, from Rogers' Corners in Carlton, who is a high school student In this city, received word Monday morning that his sister Grace, aged about eighteen years, employed at Bat­ tle Creek, had been suddenly taken very ill with peritonitis and was at the home of a sister in Bedford, and recovery was doubtful. .Word was sent to tbe par­ ents, Mr. and Mrs. Theodore Jones, in Carlton, who immediately started for her bedside. On reaching this city they learned the young lady had died, and father and' son continued to Bed­ ford, the grief stricken mother return­ ing home to await the arrival of the re­ mains. The funeral occurred Wednes­ day. . We earnestly, humbly and repentant­ ly call the attention of our readers to a communication from Mr. Charles S. Andrus in another column of this week’s Herald. We always supposed that we got witbin gunshot of the truth when we wrote up an item, and we. fondly imagined that when we took un­ usual pains to look up the facts concern­ ing Mr. Andrus’ smallpox raid on this city about a month ago we were get­ ting things pretty straight. We were under the impression that our inform­ ants were reliable people. But we now inclined to believe that Mr. An­ drus didn’t come here at all and that ourselves, our contemporaries and tbe whole community were laboring under a dream in regard to the whole matter. We reach this conclusion after count­ ing up the number of times in which Mr. Andrus says we were “absolutely false.” There was a little excitement on'Jef­ ferson and State streets about nine o'clock Saturday evening, occasioned by tbe running of a horse attached to a top buggy. Two men from the country put up at Striker’s barn during tbe day, and when they started for home did not appear to be in extra good con­ dition to manage the animal. At any rate one of them had taken the bndie off to water tbe horse, when it became unmanageable, dragging one of the at­ tendants into the road, where he finally landed in the mud, tbe wheels of the buggy passing over him. He was not injured to speak of, but was plastered with mud and a sight to behold. The other fellow sat in the buggy at the be­ ginning of tbe episode, butas the bridle and lines were gone, decided it was best to jump. He landed in good shape, and took after the runaway, which had continued down Jeffenon. onto State, turning again at Hotel Barry, towards the bridge, narrowly escaping several collision with rigs along the street. A lone and belated fisherman, returning home, stopped the horse near the bridge, and the fellows thanked their lucky stars that they came out of tbe affair in as good shape as they did.

Land has been pur­ chased which win give an entrance from the main thoroughfare of the city. Saginaw street. The building will cover about half an acre of ground, snd will be onr of the finest depots be­ tween Port Huron and Chicago, to cost, it is said, about $00,000.^ Everything points to an eruption be­ tween the employes of the Bay City Consolidated Street Railway Company and the receh*er and manager of the system. The men have asked for 18 cents an hour, lu place of the sliding scale of 14 to 17 cents, aqu have held lengthy conferences with the managers of the road, each time being met with a refuw.l to grant the request Wm, Greenfield, a lumberman, se­ cured a Judgment to the Alpena Circuit• “ for J2.3M against the? ’ gped with untrimmed hats, advertised - Your choice for 60 etttx" Now, tbe North Thirty-third street woman didn’t want an untrimmed hat at 50 cents, pot there was one that caught her . -- . handsome hat she was wearing, placed It on the counter and picked up the un­ trimmed one. Then she looked around for a mirror. There was only one, and that was away at the other end of the long room. She pushed her way through the crowd, and In the meantime a fat col­ ored woman’s eyes were glued to the bat she bad left behind on the pile marked. "Your choice for 50 cents.” It was a golden opportunity not to be missed. Counting out 50 cents In dimes, llckels and pennies, she shoved them at the innocent young attendant end made good her escape with the fash­ ionable woman’s hat—Exchange. She possesses the power of choosing which of her offspring shall be drones and which workers. Some have thought that this was automatic and that the narrower worker cell touched the button, so to speak, that brought forth a fertilized egg. But the queen will lay worker eggs in drone cells if she thinks fit, so that settles that If the drone Is male and the queen female, what is the worker? The new woman of Beedom. She has given up her motherhood for a business career. Sometimes, though, she lays eggs, but they always hatch out drom-e, of which it is strictly true to say they have a mother, but no father. If the queen's wings are crippled so that she cannot make ber marriage flight her children are all drones. An Italian queen in a hive of black bees will beget work­ ers of mixed blood, but her sons are pure Italians. Drones are useful as fathers of workers, but they cannot col­ lect the honey they eat Their tongues are too short—Alnsleo’a Tbe old “poesy rings" are a much sweeter souvenir than more modern ones. A friend bas one which had be­ longed to her great-grandmother, such a narrow gold circlet. The motto, en­ graved inside In old lettering, was as follows: "God above increase our love.” The “Claddagh" rings of Ir'land are now very difficult to procure— that Is. the genuine specimens, of course. There are many imitations. These rings were heirlooms with the people of the Claddagh, a distinct gyp­ sylike race of fishermen, and were handed down from mother to daugh­ ter as a wedding ring, a marriage be­ ing scarcely considered legal if an or­ dinary ring were substituted. They were made of massive gold, decorated with a heart, bearing a- crown sup­ ported by two clasped bands, signify­ ing loyalty, love, friendship. I>eomlMBter*a Old Durkins Stool. In the okl Priory church of Leomin­ ster is a very interesting specimen of the old cucking or ducking stool, a uni­ versal mode of punishment of scolds, scandal mongers and women with too long a tongue. It was also Inflicted on brewers and bakers, etc., transgressing the law, who In such a stool were im­ mersed over head and ears in stercore (stinking water). This mode of pun­ ishment dates back to Saxon times, and the Leominster’specimen was the last used in England of which we have any record In 1800. Several other spec­ imens still exist about the country, as at Montgomery. Warwick, Fordwich and Leeke.—Travel. Hedreho**. Hedgehogs are very strong in the wa­ ter, swimming with ease against a rapid stream, and with their muscular claws they turn up the nests of trout or salmon and make a goodly haul there­ from. They will breast a very rapid stream, and cold water, as near the freezing point as may be, seems to have no terror for them. The eggs of the sahr.ou1-.lfv nre a welcome prey to nearly every animal that will face wa­ ter. Aquatic birds, rats (both house and water), hedgehogs, beetles and their larvae, the so called fresh water shrimp? are deadly foes.—London Opin­ ion. A Shattered Poem. The quickest way to make any man weary of his life Is to give him all bls heart’s desire. The struggle for the unattained is the secret of joy. Here is a man who has been giving his years to a reckless round of pleasure. Now you see him waking up to find that the deepest needs of bis soul are still un­ touched. Or there Is another m«n who has given twenty-five years to tbe ac­ cumulation of knowledge, and at last we pee him. like Dr. Casaubon In “Mid­ dlemarch," dying with the stores of knowledge all around him, which he does not know how to use. A woman In a railroad station the other day had a great deal of trouble with one of her children, a boy of sev­ en or eight, and a man who sat near ber stood It as long aa possible and then observed: “Madam, that boy of yours needs the strong band of a father.” •'Yes.

The French employ­ ed the Mlc Mac Indians of Nova Scotia to fight against and exterminate them. Tbe Boethlcku were a peaceable and qnlet race, given to hunting and fish­ ing. They used canoes made of birch rind and of skins of deer, like the Es­ kimo cayak. They bad do pottery and used utensils of birch rind sewed to­ gether, but they employed soapstone dishes as lamps, their form being sim­ ilar to those among the Eskimos at the present day. They carved deer and walrus horns and the bones of the seal into orna­ ments, which they wore on their dress­ es, and ornamented their heads with combs. The carvings are to triangu­ lar patterns, and out of the large col­ lections in tbe museum at St John there are no two ornaments having the same pattern.

More than once be bad played hookey when be waa supposed to be In school and gone down to his favorite bead in the Big Papplo and spent-the day with book and line. One morning while he and Jumper, hil couriii, who had come to live with Grandma Bear, were on their way to school Nipper brought up the subject, and, as Jumper had never told on him, he was asked to. play truant on'the following day and go fishing. “But are there any fish there?” ask­ ed Jumper. . “The water is just full of them.” re­ plied Nipper, and as Jumper wanted to "show'’ Jimmy Bear the compact wa? sealed and arrangements were made. The next morning when Nipper klsshis grandmother goodby he said: “You need not worry about me any more, for I’m going to be good end bring homo a white card next Friday evening.” His grandmother patted him on the back, and he trotted off after Jumper. Half n mile from home the little bears hid their books and slates under an old log and made a bee line for the bend In the river. On *Bome occasions Nipper had found other bears fishing nt the bend, but this time there was none present, which was very gratifying, and Nipper was soon busy digging angleworms, while Jumper cut the poles. Ah Jumper was trimming oil the limbs he kept glancing at the water. Nipper saw him and asked what he was gazing at. “Oh. nothing much," replied Jumper, "except that I was just thinking the water Is pretty shal­ low for very big fish." “You just wait and see," replied Nipper. Then be add­ ed, “We will be flinging big fellows out as fast ns you can count as soon as we get down to business.” “I hope we will." was the reply of skeptical Jumper, “but if we don’t get some big ones look out for trouble if grandma ever finds out we were here instead of at school." “Find out flddlestlcksr replied Nip­ per. "She’ll never know." But Jump­ er was not so sure of that. In time the worms had been dug and tne lines attached to the poles, and the two little cousin bears sat down to fioh. They fished for nearly an hour before either got a nibble, when all at once the bobber on Jumper’s line went clear to the bottom. He felt that be had a fish almost as large as a whale and jerked with ail his might When the hook shot up in the air, it was empty, not even the bait remaining. "That looks encouraging anyway!" exclaimed Nipper. "He jerked just like the big Osh I caught one day last week and gave to old Mr. Coon so he wouldn’t tel) grandma I was up here fishing. I think mine weighed almost fifty pounds.” he added, “but I’m not sure, as we didn’t weigh It" “One half that big will do for me," replied Jumper as be baited bis bo.'ik and threw it back In the water. In a little while both bobbers were dancing about on the water. Occasion­ ally one would go down, but each pull on the line proved that the fish had not taken the hook. Another hour went by, and Nipper got hungry. He stuck his pole in the bank of the river and went to prepare lunch, leaving Jumper fishing. Just as lunch was announced Jumper pulled out—not a fifty pound fish, but a little hickory bass about four Inches long, which Nlppo- eaid was so full of bones that it would choke a cat to death. After lunch they fished for a long time without success. Somehow the fish wouldn’t bite, although Nipper had assured his cousin that they were plentiful. Eventually, however, Jump­ er caught another hickory bass, or skipper jack, as Nipper called IL And that was all the fiah they got yet not all they caught After Nipper had wound up his line Jumper kept trying to coax the fish. At last be, too. became discouraged and waa just ready to quit when his bobber went down, and he pulled for dear life. And what do you suppose he brought up? Nothing but a great big, ugly mud turtle. • “Mud turtles make good soup,” ex­ plained Nipper, “an<J perhaps grand­ mother will forgive us If we take it home.** . ■?• ’ . ”No, she won’t” replied Jumper. “We just got to 'claim that the mud turtle got after us on our way from school and we killed It with a sticjc Don’t you dare to tell her we were not at school. If we had plenty of fish, it might be different but let’s take no chances." It was near sundown when the little bears got home. They heard voices in the sitting room, but supposed it was some neighbors who had called. Nip­ per entered first and was followed by Jumper carrying the turtle.' “See what a nice big turtle we have brought you for soup,” Nipper said much as a rich man would «ay to his sons, “Here’s 310 for firecrackers." “Where did you catch itr said Grandma Bear. . . ' -:. “It tried to catch us on our way home from school," replied Nipper. "That’s what made.us so late. It ran us all up and down the river for two or three miles, ana at last Jumper hit tt with a Kick and killed it” “WhaCs that string hanging out of its mouth forr asked the old bear as • string attached to it,’ there’s it •nd of the string." "Wonder bow on earth it ever got there r asked Nipper, with a wonder­ ful show of innocence. But both he and Jumper strongly suspected that their duplicity had been found out, and to make things more uncomfortable Miss Cherry Bark Bear, the llttla bear's schoolteacher, walked out from a dark part of the room and stood be­ fore the two culprits. . 7 • Nipper didn’t propose to give up with­ out a struggle, and be put on a bold front and said, "Why, dear teacher, you beat us home, didn’t you?" "But you were not at school today," replied the teacher. “Oh, yes, we were,’? insisted Nipper. “Jumper and I were both there, but perhaps you didn’t see us because you have so many other little bears to look after. Of course, dear teacher, wo were there.” Jumper had never been in such a scrape before, and be would willingly have given every plaything he pos-seased to have had Nipper out in the woods for a minute or two where he could have “evened up." But ail he could do was to nervously balance first on one foot and then on the other and wait for something to turn up. And something did turn up. • “Jumper." sternly said his grand­ mother. “I am much surprised at you. I would not be surprised at anything that Nipper did. but you are different po you know chat I was at school to­ day? Well, I was. I went to see how you and Nipper were getting along. GOOD CROPS FOR PIGS. Corn is doubtless generally regarded as the standard feed for pigs in this country. There are regions, however, where there la not sufficient moisture tor cord and where other crops can be more successfully grown. In Kansas Kaffir corn has been found especially valuable. AlCalfa and soy beans have also proved useful as drought resisting crops. The feeding value ot these cropc has been tested by the Kansas station for several years with some 300 pigs. The grain ration has usually consisted of Kaffir corn. This has been supple­ mented by alfalfa hay, soy beans, cot­ tonseed meal and Nklmmilk in different amounts alone and in varying combina­ tions. ■ , In two tests It was found that a bushel of Kaffir com produced 10.6 pounds of pork, while with the lots fed corn or maize for purposes of compari­ son a bushel of grain produced 11.9 pounds of grain. During the last eleven years the average yield at the Kansas station has been: Kaffir corn. 46 bush­ els; com, 34V4 bushels. Anacre of Kafflr com would therefore produce on the basis of the above figures 487 pounds of pork, an acre of com 410 pounds. It is stated that the pigs tire of Kaffir corn when it Is fed alone more quickly than they do of maize. The Kaffir com Is eaten with great relish at first, and for about four weeks gains are made as rapidly as on maize. When the Kaf­ fir com is not eaten readily, other feed should, be given with it Kaffir corn fed with alfalfa, soy beans or skim­ milk 18 eaten readily until the pigs are thoroughly finished, and lots thus fed fatten evenly. When 7.83 pounds of alfalfa hay were fed per bushel of Kaffir cornmeal, the gain was 10.88 pounds. The gain from a bushel of Kaffir cornmeal alone was 7.48 pounds. The gains were of about the same proportion when alfalfa hav was fed with Kaffir com. The value of alfalfa bay for combining with Kaffir corn In evident. The station points out the need of cutting It early ai.’d curing "why. i>eab thacheb, you beat ch home, dids:t youT That’s how I know what’s attached to the end of the string in the mud tur­ tle's mouth.

If you are not, I a^i nsbaiqed of you. and if you ever do anything'of this kind again I’ll send you over to Plum Hollow to the reform school for bad little bears. As for Nipper, he’s too young to send there, but not too young to be punished, god as soon as the teacher goes borne jve’ll talk this matter over again. In the morning the teacher will talk It over, too, and by that time I think yon will both be of the opinion that it always pays to be honest The only reply . _ came from Jumper . when he said, "Grandma. I’m willing to admit it now if that will do any good." But it didn’t—Cincinnati En­ quirer. it carefully. The leaves are the most valuable portion. The hay Bhould be cut before more than half of the plants are In bipom and bandied so that as few leave™ as possible are lost. When soy beans were ted with Kaf­ fir corn In the proportion of one to four, there was an increase in gala from 14.6 to 96.4 per cent. When fed for a abort time and In smul* quantities, cottonseed meal com­ bined with Kaffir corn also gave satis­ factory results. The best results were obtained wib skimmilk. In this case the pigs fed Hkimmilk and Kaffir corn gained 1GD per cent more than those not fed skim­ milk. When the season arrives for turning the awes and lambs upon winter wheat or other pasture, the grain teed should be continued for some time .as well as a light ration of bay. This will counter­ act the oversucculency of the green feed and prevent possible derangements of the digestive organs. Lambs make a remarkable growth and matured sheep take on fle~h very rapidly upon tb° wheat pastures. It is not unusual for lambs to make a dally gain of threefourths to a pound for the ‘first thirty days, and they frequently weigh from forty-five to fifty pounds at two mouths old.

Mr. Roosevelt’s Failure. The struggle of the president to in­ i'. duce bis party to pass a Cuban reci| procity bill has ended in failure. 80 ! far as congress is concerned the appeal I of two republican presidents, McKin­ ley and Roosevelt, that justice be done j to Cuba and the national pledge be’ J’ kept inviolate has been rejected. No considerations of tbe kind which the Ipresident has brofight to bear upon the !-■ question have been able to turn the f selfish hearts of the beet sugar aena|- tors from their determination to thwart Caban reciprocity at all hazards. The .. pledges of congress and of the presi| dent that the United States would ' grant commercial concessions to the ' Cubans in return for their acquiescence | to the Platt amendments, go for naught witlj such narrow minded Hgpttftesmen. _ T. Th© only alternative open to the president is by negotiating a treaty J-'vtith Cuba, calling congress together E?: Id extra session, and submitting the in| strument to the senate for iu approval k -a course which be is said to be con­ i' . tempi ati ng, but in which he is not likel ly'to succeed if he tries it. I? The whole Cuban reciprocity incident illustrates in a way that ought to be clear to the country the hopelessness of I, looking to the republican party for any । relief whatever from the grinding poli। cy of protection. Tbe party is bo thor5 oughly impregnated with the doctrine । that it cannot yield a single point to L' <wnmercin.l freedom even when nation­ honor demands it. ” iBut the day is at hand when the neF ©esaity for checking the trust evil will [ be too. pressing to be neglected.

There can be no tariff reform, and no •relief from trust oppression so long as [the party that refuses to do justice to is in power, and Mr. Roosevelt t better turn his attention towards promising proposition. Must the Party Look for New Leaders. It is to be regretted that the recent pt of the New York democrats to the different factions of the party harmony and rally them anew the standard of Tilden’sdemoc;y is looked upon with disfavor by' of the old enemies of Cleveland Hill. Because these gentlemen present and took an active part in Henry Watterson, the of theLouisville Courier real and an opponent of Mr. Bryfinancial views in 1896, has violentMr. Cleveland, accusing him ambitious to regain his oldinfluence and leadership in the ; sad saying a great many disathings about him. Mr. Brywas invited to attend this Tilbanqu&t, not only failed to be )at even ignored tbe invitation On the other hand Mr. !* speech, while full of good aud file of the democratic party are ready to march forward loyally and grapple with the enemy. All they need is harmony iu the councils of the leaders, and a wise broad-minded and vigorous administrat ion of the party's organized forces. There is a magnifi­ cent chance for the old chieftains to take up tbe urgent duties of the hour and lead the party to new achievements of inestimable value to the country, but if they cannot rise Io the situation, new leaders will surely take thelr^taboes. This is the day when the political fortunes of two millionaire office seek* ers are to be settled. Undoubtedly Governor Bliss and Justice R. Stearns are In a nervous inood, as their great struggle for control of the g. a p. reaches its climax. As for the people of Michigan, it makes little difference which one wins. IT WILL be interesting to note how the republican resolution committee at Detroit deals with Mr. Roosevelt, whom the Michigan delegation in congress has so vigorously opposed in his Cuban reciprocity policy. Now we shall see whose money has been most judiciously expended. THE VALUE OF CHRISTIANITY Continued from Page 1. crucified. Julius Caesar at Avaricum, in Gaul, had 40,000 put to the sword. On another occasion, he cut off the hands of all who bore arms against him and sent them adrift for a warning tp their countrymen. Thoy tell us of the great Coliseum of Rome and of the arch of Titus, but never say that the one was built by Jewish slaves, that tbe other tells the story of the lost rational inde­ pendence. All these were most horri­ ble and yet the natural outcome of un­ aided reason’s reign But there was one still more revolting vice amongst them, and this was not even poisoning, which was so common, that tbe parent dared not eat the food prepared by its child. In that long list of evils mentioned by St. Paul in his epistle to the Romans it is the last of these. There was no fear of God amongst them. They were cruel! Tbe poor wore oppressed, pov­ erty waa a disgrace and the aged and helpless were Jett to die on the river banks. Thousands were slaughtered to make a Roman holiday. Men were made to fight' amongst themselves; to fight wild beasts in tbe arena, while the watching multitude could by the turn of the thumb give away the life of a fallen victim. The slaves were given by their masters for public amusement. One man in the east gave 10.000 slaves to the amphitheatre; one just emperor forbade that more than 120 persons should be killed in one day but that law could not be carried into effect. They would take two ships filled vrith men to the Meditteranean sea to fight, and set tire to the boats out upon the waters and as the poor men climbed the masts to escape the licking flames, would cheer lustily and no one was allowed to rescue them when they fell blackened and charred into the sea. Nero used human vic­ tims, sewed in pitch soaked canvas as torches to light his festive gardens. This but a faint picture of the condition of society when human reason reigned supreme; when even Socrates and Plato looking out over the chaotic waste were forced to cry out, “God alone can help us. ” This is the story of reason ’a reign, this tbe condition of mankind when I Christianity came into the world. Christ came to make us free, and before Elis gospel’s influence slavery was ban­ ish eo from the world for He took upon Himself the form of a slave, His mes­ sage “all men are free and equal,” as St. Paul says, “whatsoever good thing any man shall do the same shall be re­ ceived from the Lord whether he be bond or free. Masters do justice to your servants forbearing threatenings, knowing that the Lora of both them and you ts in Heaven and there is no respect of persons with Him.” A great writer today could say not a single slave can be found upon a solitary foot of Christendom. The poor, were then de­ spised, but Christ has said: “Blessed are the poor, • * • for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.” Suffering was a reason why a man should end his life, bu i Christ said: ‘ 'Blessed are they that suffer ♦ * ♦ for theirs is the King­ dom of Heaven?’ Pleasure is the only aim of life with a yet Christ says, “Seek first the om of heaven,” then the old and । left to die, now, housed in homes, raised by the hands of charity—chariity the fairest flower of Christianity. In all Greek and Roman literature no word is found to express an orphan asylum or a home for aged and poor; it remained for Christianity to rear these and to give, them "a habitation and a name.” Labor, that was then looked down upon was ennobled by Christ’s life of toil. He shed the halo of light around the workshop and lightened the mechanics’ labor by becoming an arti­ san Himself. Labor is no reproach, in these Christian days as the poet writes: “God Mom tbe noMe wartdaa men, Whoflir the miam and build the ships And drive tbe commerce al the main. God bJean them for their swarthy bands Have wrought tbe story at oar lands." Thus Christ elevated society, placed at Mr. Bryan and the ail- the seal of sanctity on labor, suffering, poverty and age. But of all made tbe ef tbe party. family the emblem of heaven upon earth, told the husband you must cling to your wife, as Christ to His church, who laid down his life for it. A man shall put away his mother and cling to anything offensive to the wife ot his heart. He that even looks upon another than she, with lust­ fulness. is an adulterer. Christianity took woman from a condition worse than slavery, made her the equal of man #__ tl.. .V______ or woman w for os - tells you of human reason’s greatness, tell him of the facts of tbe French revo­ lution and of the reign of terror in France. When the flower of French so­ ciety was sent by thousands to the guillotine tbe streets of the city ran with human blood, tbe churches were painted black; art and literature of Reason. We want no more of pogan- Give ns Christ and His Christianity, which has always been the great civil­ izing influence of society. Remember if a man will not let the rivers of Christ’s Christianity flow into and irri­ gate his heart, or elevate his mind to higher, and holier things he will be a pagan still. Be.not surprised that 1 to vestiges appear amongst us today from time to time, when you bear it said: Women should be in politics; the poor have too many children; di­ vorce shall be permitted; put an end to your misery bv suicide. These are the doctrines and remnants of pagan­ ism. These things were practiced when Egypt was a land of darkness, when Rome was a Saturnalia of sin. Let such teachings have no influence upon your lives. Cling to your Chris­ tianity and let its principles give di­ rection to your every action. Its doc­ trines manifest the law of the Omnipo­ tent and your corresponding obliga­ tions. For as Emperor William said the other day in his speech on religion at Aix la Chapelle, ‘‘ne who does not found his life on religion is a lost man. I rejoice.” he says, ‘“that I have placed my whole empire, my people, my army, as well as myself and my house beneath tbe cross and under the protection of Him-who said, 'Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my word shall not pass away.’” Your Christianity will com­ fort you when tbe cold world will chill and blight the sanguine hopes of your hearts. It will cause you to remember that the great God looks down from above, teach you th^t the evening shadows and morning’s glory speak of Him, that tho radiant atmosphere tells of His omniscience, the never failing spring that rises from tbe graves of winter, the recurring days speak of His unchanging life. Noon day's splendor and midnight’s starlit heavens pro­ claim His beauty, the peaceful ocean speaks of His immensity. All nature will tell you of His existence and mounting up through all gradations of being, science, knowledge,' and educa­ tion to be true education must acknow­ ledge Him. • ' My dear young friends, I congratu­ late you on tbe success ydu have achieved in reaching the end of your high school education. This day has been as a beacon light, leading you on through many a weary hour and many a difficulty. Natural that as tonight os you stand on the borderland that sep­ arates the past from the future, min­ gling thoughts of gladness and sorrow should arise; happy that the end has come at last, and that you are able to take your place in the world of action. Yet sorrowful, that the last farewell must oe spoken, that will sever associ­ ates for a life time who have been daily companions in school days. Yet change and longing for new scenes of life is the nature of the human heart. “Tem­ pore mutantur nos mutamur cum Ulis” says the Roman poet, “Times change aud we. change with them.” Gratitude should naturally arise towards tbe teachers who have labored for your suc­ cess, and yet you must ever remember that your education has but begun. You nave been shown the course to pursue and the instrument to use in acquiring education, and faithful fol­ lowing and using of these will be the only recompense a faithful preceptor will expect. Gratitude towards par­ ents who have maintained you by much labor and sacrifice perhaps at school. The future with open arms awaits you. Your country looks upon you who will be its future citizens with wistful eye. Great opportunities she offers for all, but remember she knows that in good, moral Christian citizqf s lies her future hope. In the march ot life all of you may not attain to greatness. Not every one h|ve. their names emblazoned on the temple of fame. But wherever, Providence may lead you, be it even along paths most obscure, love your Christian faith, practice Lt; It will make you great, will give meaning to every phase of your existence. Then you will bring joy to your fellowmen, raise others to a nobler life and elevate yourselves even to the dignity of in­ habitants of heaven. IT STRIKES US... That the time to buy sugar is 25 lbs.

ADULTS GO TO NIGHT SCHOOL Ten Thousand Natives Perfecting Themselves In English Branches at Manila—Women Paes Successful Examinations for Good Pisces- Washington. May 21—W. Leon Pep­ perman, member ci the Philippine civil service comvlsalon, has just ar­ rived on leave r. absense from Ma­ nila. Mr. Per>erman says: ‘The scope of tbe commission has been ex­ tended gradually until it now covers 6,000 positions, ranging in salary from |15 per month to >7,700 per year." Mr. Peppennan says the immediate reward to successful applicants has caused a change from the eld classi­ cal system of education under the Spanish regime to one based largely on practical business lines. So great is the Interest of the Filipinos in acquiring a knowledge of English that 10,000 adults are going to night school in Manila. Before the American oc­ cupation typewriters were almost un­ known in the Philippines, but now at every examination applicants are qualifying in typewriting and stenog­ raphy. Of the 6,000 positions men­ tioned 4.000 are held by natives, the remainder by Americans. The policy of the commission, Mr. Pepperman says, has been to replace the Ameri­ cans by Filipinos as rapidly as possi­ ble. “Under Spanish rule," he continued, “women were unheard of In the goveriment, but just before I left Manila three Filipino young ladles h passed successful examinations and -ad been given good positions.” STRIKERS FOR NAVY.

WEEK'S FORECAST. Outline of Expected Legislation In Senate and House. Washington, June" 23.—Tbe sessions of the senate during the present week will be devoted to odds and ends of legislation. It was the purpose of the Republican steering committee to make the Cuban reciprocity bill the order of business after the disposition of the interoceanic canal bill, but it is evident that there can be no reci­ procity legislation this session. Sen­ ator Bate has stated that If Senator Quay does not press the motion he will move to have the committee dis­ charged and the omnibus statehood . bill taken up. On Tuesday the senate will take up the bill creating a na­ tional forest reserve In the southern Appalachian mountain range. Purs Food.

Changes of Interest to Business Men to Be Mede In Code. Washington, June 23.—A bill inter­ esting to a number of people who are engaged in Alaskan enterprises will be reported by Mr. Warner ot Illinois from his committee on revision of taws. It proposes to amend the civil code of Alaska and is voluminous. It amends the divorce taws, enlarges the powers of city councils, and reserves license money collected in tbe differ­ ent municipalities for their benefit In­ stead of turning it into the federal treasury. But the most important fea­ tures, so far as the business inter­ ests are concerned, Are found in Its provisions for the formation of private corporations. The bill permits pri­ vate corporations and joint stock com­ panies organized under the laws of the United States and authorized to do business in Alaska the right to ac­ quire only such real estate as may be necessary to carry on their corporate business*. It contains numerous other features of Importance to those who are now engaged or contemplate en­ gaging in business in Alaska. and The etaaire Is that the major endravorod to hare bls secretary, Tbomaa R.

D. McELWAIM CORONER’?/ INQUEST HELD MON­ ' DAY AFTERNOON. Considerable Interest was Taken and Three Attorneys Were Pres­ ent to Question Witnesses, ' The coroner’s inquest to ascertain the cause of the death of the late A. D. McElwain was held Monday afternoon in tbe supervisors' room at the court house, by Dr. E. H. Lathrop, 'one of tbe coroners for Barry county. The jury was composed of L. E. Stauffer, E. W. Morrill, W. A. Hams, L. J. Goodyear, G./F.' Chidester and H. H. Snyder. Inasmuch as there was so much dis­ cussion upon tbe streets and elsewhere as to who was to blame, the Inquest in some respects was in the nature of a trial, with no complainant or defendant In the case. . The Hastings Electric Light and Power Company was Depre­ sented by P. T. Colgrove, the relatives of the deceased by Fred W. Walker and the Citizens Telephone Company by W-. J. Stuart of Grand Rapids. - The testimony showed that Mr. Mc­ Elwain came to bis death on the twenty­ fifth of June by receiving an electric shock caused by the wire which be had in bis hand coming in contact wit|i a wire heavily charged with electricity, and the jury so found. \ It was shown and admitted by tbe, electric light people that the electricity was caused by a secondary wire in front of Goodyear’s drug store coming in con­, tact with a primary switch wire.

Mr., Evans went to » , J show case containing revolvers, took ‘ out one, and not supposing the weapon was loaded, held it out and snapped it. Unfortunately the revolver was load- ' -.1 ed and Young was in range receiving the ball, a 32 calibre, in the left breast just above the heart. The boy had- , followed Evans, and as be wore rubber boots, Evans who is hard of hearing, did not see nor hear him, hence was unaware of his near presence. The affair was quickly noised about and a crowd collected. Dr*. Howell and Lowry were summoned and the wounded boy** condition hastily ex­ '•ia amined.

HEIRS TO MILLIONS. !38 Barry County Has Several Heirs to Estate in Germany. . It is claimed that over one hundred years ago a man named Ickes died in Germany leaving an estate valued st 81,000,000. This was left to draw interest at four per cent, for one hundred years and then to be divided amohg the heirs then living. The Ickes that died is claimed to be the great grandfather of the late A. H. Ickes of this city. For several years an effort has been made to organize tbe heirs and go after the millions said to be awaiting such action. No one has seemed to take enough interest in the affair to attempt such a gigantic undertaking, but at present the heirs are corresponding with each other and it is not unlikely that an effort will be made towards organization. Tbe great great grandchildren, as far as the Herald knows, are Miss Anna Ickes, Mrs. H. M. Erb and Frank Ickes of this city; Rev. Ickes, formerly of this city; and David Ickes of Baltimore Mrs. A.H. Ickes, widow of tbe late A. H. Ickes, Is also one of the heirs. The Herald is not Informed wheth­ er the 81,090,(XX) draws simple or com­ pound interest. If simple interest it would amount to 85,000,000. Mrs. H. M. Erb thinks perhaps there are one thousand heirs, and each would be ertitled to about 85,000 each. We hype the heirs may be able to prove up, and get a chunk of Germany’s wealth over on this side of the world. .j .a a .?■ ■ _.1 - ■ ^1 | -’ . -’J : ; , 'fS " ' * . ’.’J Laid at Rett.

In foulards PROFITABLE DAIRYING. of irnSlvMaal Csws. ' A prominent dairy authority has re eently said. “If the death angel should sweep o’, er the state and In one night destroy the poorest third of all the cows, in Illinois, the dairymen would awake the next morning financially better off.” Frequently dairymen arc keeping one-half of their herd at an actual loss. They are perhaps making a little profit on the whole herd aixl are thus apparently satisfied, whereat if they would dispose of their unprofit­ able cows they would make more mon ey and also save labor. Generally speaking, cows cannot be kept at 0 profit in Illinois that do not product the equivalent of 250 ponuds of buttei annually. To determine exactly what a cow produces In a year every milking musl be weighed and sampled, but If the herd is given a one week test every three1 months it will be sufficient tc yield valuable results. AU the appara tus necessary for this purpose Is 0 spring balance, as many common glast fruit jars as there are cows in the herd and a four bottle Babcock milk tester The milk may be weighed on any scale but a spring balance is most con ven lent The scale should be so adjusted that It will balance the empty milk pal! with the hand at zero, as shown ir th/ cut The weight of the milk tnaj ^tten be read directly from the scale without subtracting the weight of the paii and may be quickly recorded oppo site the cow’s name on the milk sheet provided for the purpose and placed or tho wall convenient to the scale. A sample should then be taken by mean/ of a small dipper holding about tr*c tablespoonfuls and placed in the jai bearing the cow’s name or number. A cartridge shell of the proper size, wltt n wire attached for a handle, makes a very convenient dipper for this pur pose. To prevent the milk from souring until the end of the week to each glaai jar should be added as much pulver ized potassium bichromate as 'will Ilf on a one cent piece. Potassium biebro mate, although a rank poison, is one 01 the best preservatives to use for thlf purpose for the reason that it impart a lemon color to the milk, thus making it easy of detection and obviating th' possible mistake of feeding it to calve> or pigs. At the end of the week the compositf samples in the jars are tested with tin Babcock milk test to determine the pei cent of butter fat. This gives the aver age amount of butter fat contained !i each cow’s milk for the. week. The to tai weight of the milk for the week multiplied by the per cent of butter fa> gives the total butter fat produced bj that cow for the week. This test should be made every thre« months or thirteen weeks, and in com putlng the yield of the cow for tht three months thewdx weeks previous t< and the six weeks following the tea: should be taken.—J.

JAPAN CURRENT. Karo Siwo Piles Great Load* of Driftwood oa Alaska's Shores. In one sense the Kurp Siwo, or Japan current, is the most interesting in the world because many oceanographers believe it was the direct means of peo­ pling America. This much at least is certain: If a boat were to be set adrift on parts of the Asiatic coast and sur­ vived all storms, the Japan current could be depended upon to carry it across the Pacific and deposit it on the American shore. Buch a thing has happened. In 1832 nine Japanese fish­ ermen were left derelict and unable to And their way back to short? They went with the current and after a drift lasting during several months they were carried to Hawaii. Trees torn by storms from the banks of Asiatic rivers frequently float across the Pacific to the American coast. Be­ tween Kakatag and Kyak islands, about 1,200 miles northwest of Seattle, enormous piles of this driftwood cover the beaches. There can be no question of the Asiatic origin of the timber. They are the trunks of the camphor tree, the mango and the mahogany. Logs 150 feet long and eight feet in di­ ameter are frequently found. Many of them are seen floating shoreward, with fantastic roots standing high above the waves. Id places the logs are piled twenty feet high. They are generally without bark, which has been peeled off by the waves, and most of them have become white and heavy from Impregnation with salt water. As they pile up the sands drift over them, and gradually they sink out of sight, and new beaches are formed. This process has been going od for ages, and the shore line is being steadily extended. Excavatipns along the beach show that texture of the burled timber gets hard­ er and ha^er the farther in you go, until in some instances petrifaction has taken place. Other excavations show logs that have turned to coal. The presence of Siberian driftwood on the shores of Greenland convinced Nansen that his Idea of drifting across the Polar sea lu the Fram was logical. Great quantities of the wood are an­ nually cast on the coasts of Spits­ bergen and Nova Zembla, and there are tribes of Greenland Eskimos who depend for sledge runners and other wooden Implements on the drift from Siberian forests.

Push a pin half way through a green pea, making the two ends as nearly as possible the same weight—L e., let the point come a little more than half way through. Then break off the stem of a common clay pipe, and the toy will be completed. To make the pea dance put It on top of the pipestem, the point of the pin sticking down the bore. Throw your head back with the pipe in your mouth, so that the stem may be held vertically, and blow gently. This will make the pea rise. Keep blowing harder until the pea rises en­ tirely from the pipe antrto supported in the air. It will now begin to spin round and round and turn over and over, all the while bobbing up and down as long as the current of Mr to kept up. The dance may bo changed by pushing the pin up to its bead. The pea will now rise to the top of the pipe and dance slowly and with great dignity around the edge, or if the blast la a little stronger It will spin rapidly onleas the blower stops to laugh, when It is likely to fall into ths open mouth below. “Only fancy, craodpapa.

Secretary. The Banner’s Peculiar Position. In so far as the Banner made a brave fight to save its party from renomin­ ating Governor Bliss it deserved the ” sympathy of all good citizens, who as a matter of course are opposed to corrupt political methods in any party. But from the standpoint of the party organ our contemporary is now carrying iu ■ opposition to Bliss to an extreme utterly at variance with the usual conception of what constitutes the duty of a party | organ. It te the privilege, and probably the duty, of a party organ to use its influ­ cnee before the nominating convention is held In favor of such men and such policy as to it may seem best. But when the convention has been held and - the platform made it is the duty of the ' organ to sink its own preferences and opinions, bow to the will of the majortty and positively and heartily support •_. the .nominees and the platform. Other­ wise there could be no effective party ’ organization. "Jv V . But the attitude of the Banner since the renomination of Bliss is very pecu­ liar, not to say inconsistent. It not only is not submissive to the will of the republican party os set forth at the Detroit convention, but Is as violent in its opposition to Bliss as ever. And yet it places Governor Blits’ name at the head of its column. Its position of defiance it in Itself exceedingly pecuii»r. Il presumes to say that its own opinion, backed by thirteen votes, must oontinue to count for more than that of 800 men who ?oted for Governor Bliss. Ttt “holier than thou” attitude towards She party to which it belongs would seem to be very offensive to the hAnoraide gentlemen who have almost unan|y endorsed Governor Bites. not only te iu fractiousnees after n peculiar. Its concepn’t duty te equally ee that it will do os it Bites’ name in the nates, for the Banner , and Gov Bites ta a All of which sounds ’ In sharp contrast to the machine methods which made the renomination of Governor Bl tea a foregone conclusion and converted Into a farce all the re­ publican talk of reform in state affairs, is the attitude of the democratic party with reference to nominating a state ticket. Not in many years has the democratic party, of Michigan hod snob a good prospect of winning as at pres­ ent. The people of Michigan are ab­ solutely disgusted with the ring role and the corruption which obtains in state politics and are ready to rally to the support of the democratic ticket, provided the democrats put b strong ticket In nomination. In view of these bright prospects it Is natural that many names should be suggested for the honor of leading the party to victory next fall, and it is in­ evitable that the friends of leading democrats who are being urged tor the place should put forth strong efforts to secure the nomination for their re­ spective favorites. But it is worth noting that there is not a man in the list against whom the suspicion of boodle ism or subserviency to the money power could for one moment'be enter­ tained. Not a Stearns, not a Ferry, not a Bliss is in the race for the demo­ cratic nomination. Whether It shall be a Durand, or a Maybury> or a Bark­ worth, or a Helme, or a Sligb, that shall lead the democracy, the party Is certain to have a clean and Incorrupt­ ible candidate. Again there is no shameless anteconvention campaign being waged to buy up delegates pledged to any man at the coming democratic convention. Men will not go to Detroit on the thir­ tieth of July sold In advance to some boodle candidate. They will not have to vote for a certain slate, all fixed up by a few machine politicians, contrary to tbeir individual judgment and in violation of their own consciences. On the contrary the delegates will go to Detroit in favor, it may be, of certain men for nomination, but ready and anxious to do what is best for the whole state and for the success of a just cause. In other words the demo­ cratic, convention will be a genuine deliberative body and not a machine owned and controlled by a small clique of corrupt politicians, and in this re­ spect will present a contrast to the late republican convention that will com­ mend it to all right minded and patriot­ ic citizens. The Emperor and the Man With the Check Book. J. Pierpont Morgan took luncheon with Emperor William on board the imperial yacht Hohenzollern July 3rd and the incident has been made the text for a satirical editorial in a Vien­ na newspaper, the Neue Freie Freese, “Without his check book Mr. Morgan would never have been the emperor’s guest” is the way in wljich the Freie Presse sneeringly puts it. The article is a good illustration of the way in which the aristocratic ideas of Europe are being shocked by the unconventional manner in which Amer­ icans are coming to the front in the affairs of the world. A plain Ameri­ can citizen without any pretensions to aristocracy or nobility of birth has act­ ually dined with his consecrated maj­ esty, the emperor, ot Germany, on board the imperial yacht st Kiel. Such familiar relations between royalty and a plain business man from New York seems to have struck the Viennese journal aa a most incongruous thing, worthy to be satirized. Were it not for Mr. Morgan’s check book, the Freie Presse sneeringly says, the emperor would not have thought of such a thing M inviting a plebeian New Yorker to dine with him. If there were anything to criticise irr hU guest. For it might be implied that hh majesty had lowered himself for the purpose of courting the good highly discreditable to a and chivalrous monarch of a great nation, but his power 4s re­ strained by constitutional limitations and his sovereignty confined within political boondxriee. Morfu a dotnlnSons are Jm. wide as modern civilization ' and his plaits affect the whole world’s welfare. It may well be questioned therefore whether the greater condescension of the visit between the monarch and the man with the check book belongs to the Hohenzollern who inherited all his power from his royal parehte. or to the plain American- who by sheer execu­ tive talent and masterly management has become the master of the world’s Industrial energies. The course which the Detroit school board are taking with reference to the principalship of the Central high school is highly reprehensible. Having re­ elected Principal Beazell, a certain faction of the board have been trying ever since to have the vote reconsid­ ered and Mr. Beazell dropped. Noth­ ing could be more prejudicial to the school, nothing unfairer to Mr. Beazell. The board should have known its mind iu the first place and, having once settled the matter, stand by that decision. | The first session of the fifty-seventh congress has appropriated more than 8930,000,000. The last session of the fifty-third congress spent 8558,000,000. The republicans controlled the fifty­ seventh congress, the democrats the flfty-third. Comment is unnecessary as the figures show for themselves which party is extravagant. It pays to advertise.

The greater port of our bench land te almost devoid of humus. It becomes hard and cloddy after irrigation. It is therefore all Important that no more ir­ rigation be done than Is absolutely neeeasary. Further irrigation cools the soil, making it Imperative to irrigate moderately during the spring months. In summer uxemsirs irrigation redoces. the quality of the beet crop, decreasing the percentage of sugar. Full irriga­ tion, however, increases the yield per acre. Ab irrigation cools the soil ft must kA 'carefully controlled while the plants are tender, otherwise ithe taproot may . not go down in search of moisture. This will result in a scrubby beet, with many prongs and a low sugar content. During August and the first part of September full Irrigation will Increase the quality of the crop and also the quantity. Late Irrigation, however. 1b apt to produce beets of a low percent­ age of sugar. After the land te plowed] in the fall It should be Irrigated before winter sets In if water is available. Bowing toe seed with a drill and- cul­ tivating to a depth of five or six inches are the main remedies against the dis-, advantages of irrigation. Thorough cultivation should be kept up until it Is prevented by the growing crop. In oth­ er words, cultivate until there 1b dan­ ger of Injuring the leaves. Our contest acre was scant In humus and therefore did not retain the mois­ ture well. If it had not rained imme­ diately after planting. It would have been necessary to Irrigate to secure a good stand. This first irrigation, how­ ever, must be very late, bo as not to cool the underground too much. Irri­ gation water may be applied freely, during July. When the crop has reach­ ed the standard in sugar—14 per cent— it is time for the skilled beet grower to look for and secure if possible a large tonnage by increasing the amount of Irrigation water to be applied, says a Utah correspondent in Orange Judd Farmer. The grain crop Is needed In May and the early part of Juno In Wisconsin, Minnesota, the Dakotas and the north­ west generally. This year the crop will bo lute because of a cool April and an excess of moisture, keeping the ground cold. The flax plant can stand consid­ erable warm, moist weather after once established on ground not Infected by flax wilt In North Dakota farmers generally consider it a new laa■! crop. Of late they find that by careful rotation and the putting of three or four crops of wheat and oats between flax crops the results are quite satisfactory. They all believe, however, that the produc­ tive capacity of the soil grows less and that continuous cropping for any con­ siderable length of time is not profit­ able. It is for this reason that the flax producing section Is always found in the states where prairie land Is plentiful. In spite of this popular be­ lief as to the heavy draft of flax on the boh Professor Harry Snyder of Minnesota shows that an average crop of flax does not remove excessive amounts of fertility from the soil—L e.t more than the other leading farm crops. Professor Bolley, also of the North Dakota station, calls attention to the fact that weeds rapidly take posses­ sion of flax land and that wheat, oatA corn, potatoes and beets grown upon land affected by flax will do well.— Orange Judd Farmer. .doea not confine himself to »ad«intihe future, be^te false s,and<prwM himself unapruf’tne unwritten laws of arranged in a straight line they would cover 221 miles of rail way.

[a, natural size; b. enlarged: c, beans from which beetles have escaped.] fall by the next summer, especially if the beans are kept In a warm room, they may practically all be injured. To prevent this the best method seems to be the Inclosing of the beans In a tight vessel in which a little bisulphide of carbon, benzine or gasoline is placed, taking care, of course, to prevent explo­ sion through contact with fire. Simply keeping the beans in a cold place dur­ ing the winter will tend to lessen the multiplication, of the pests. Late sow­ ing also appears to lessen the chances of injury to the crop.

I had nervous indigestion and a general derangement of the entire system. It had been a continual tor­ ture for 12 years. My blood became very poor and at times my toe and finger nails would be diseased. /After eating I would sit in a chair and put my feet- on something to keep them from swelling, and at times would take oft my shoes for the misery I had.’ Whenever I experience any­ thing to remind me of past aches I cannot be too elated to tell what Ripans Tabules have done for me. I ?H1 take one now and then, because know how bad I have been. They were just wjhat I needed. In the deep shade of the tree the bas­ kets are laid, and now a fire Is started nearby, one of Van Dyke’s little “friendship fires,’! which shall also cook a few trout. "Get two flat stones, friend—and they’ll be hard to find in this bowlder country, but they are sometimes worn quite flat—while I gather some sufficient wood.” Into the fire the stones go, and the wood is heaped about them. Boon the Intense glow of live wood embers indicates that €he time has come. The trout, a sliver of bacon in each, are placed on one stone, flrat well dust­ ed of its ashes,/and the other stone is laid upon them. Now the hot embers are raked about and over the stones, and the lunch is spread on the big rock near the spring. O ye epicures, who think nothing good unless served by a Delmonico or a Sherry, go ye Into the mountains, fol­ low a brook for half a day, get wet and tired and hungry, sit down by an Ice cold spring and eat brook trout cooked on the spot and delicious bread and butter liberally spread with clover hon­ ey.

She had attained the age of eighteen years un­ der the most favorable conditions, ex­ cept that she bore the name of the virtue of Prudence, which she spised. But for a long habit of rebelling against her name she might not have fallen In love with Arthur Rowan, a somewhat dazzling youth, who was spending the summer as the guest of his unde, a neighbor of Judge Prior. Rowan was just out of college, where be had been a fair student and a great swell at the sports. His manner bad the keen savor of eari£ success and the assurance that comes of triumphant * popularity. Prudence thought him the greatest creature ever born. z | Now, the judge’s mind floated In se­ rene heights of scholarly and pure re­ search, but he had an eagle eye to see the flat earth’s surface and especially that portion of it where his daughter walked with innocent feet amid the roses and the thorns of youth. He be­ held young Mr. Rowan and not with­ out a certain approval, but be was in no hurry to have him for a son-in-law. So the judge issued an injunction re­ straining bls daughter and Mr. Rowan from considering themselves engaged. Ha ruled that no contract existed be­ tween them or could exist for a period of two years. The Prior family was going abroad in the fall and would spend at least eighteen months and perhaps twenty-four in foreign lands. Rowan stated that this fact was al­ ready known to him; that be would be quite satisfied to be engaged to Mlsa Prior/meanwhile and would not insist upon marrying her immediately. But the judge would not grant or even con­ sider this plea. Instead he perempto­ rily adjourned the hearing for two years. The result of this was panic. Cou­ pled with some hint of Mrs. Prior’s preparation !cr nodal conquests abroad, i tt bredin Rowan's excited mind the I conviction that Prudence was to be ! 'taken over teas to be the pray of aoma dissolute and bankrupt noble. Out of this absurdity grew the plot of a secret marriage, and Prudence was beguiled into acquiescence by such arguments as we forget the force of when ws grow old. The plan was simplicity IteelL They were merely to skip acrora lots In the edge ef tbe evening from the Prior rw gymaa. * newcomer tn the town, had taken, toditote...

They were passing a rude arbor, find Rowan drew the girl Into ft, but the rain ceased before they bad fairly crossed the threshold. “Wh^t shall we do?" whispered Pru­ dence. “1’v^ got on my blue hat with the chiffon bow, and If It gets wet It will be ruined.” Prudence put out her hand and felt only a single small drop. “If we only had an umbrella,” she began, "for it may rain, jrou know, when we’re coming back.” “Wait here,” he cried, "and I’ll get “Wait while you go all the way home?” ehe exclaimed. “I’d be scared out of my wits." “Then we’ll have to risk it,” he re­ plied. “Our minister’s there this even­ ing, but he’s going over to Allendale tomorrow, to be gone the rest of the Prudence hesitated, standing In the arbor door and trying to read the seirets bf the dull, drifting clouds. There was just light enough to see-her up­ turned face, and this time Rowan did hot waste a kiss upon the blue hat "I left my umbrella in the library,” Whispered Prudence. “Perhaps I could run back”— “I’ll have It In three seconds I”, he cried. And the girl stood alone in the arbor. The library was quite dark, as Row­ an had had every reason to believe that it would be. He gained easy ac­ cess through a window, but It was a rather more difficult matter to find the umbrella. The young man stumbled over chairs and knocked his elbows against the corners of bookcases. He had made three-quarters of the circuit of the room When a door opened, and some one entered. Rowan, crouching close to the wall, crept softly toward a window, but be had taken not more than half a dozen steps when the room became in an in­ stant dazzllngly light, and there stood Judge Prior, with his hand upon the electric button. The young man was fortunate enough to be one of those persons for whom time moves slowly In emergencies. He seemed to have hours for reflection while the judge was turning around. “Judge Prior,” he said In a singularly calm voice. The venerable jurist was naturally startled, but immediately regained bls self control. "1 was waiting for you. sir,” contin­ ued Rowan. "I supposed that you .would come here after dinner, and 1 wished to speak with you a moment in private.” “Be seated, sir,” said Prior courteous­ ly. And they took chairs upon oppo­ site sides of tbe big table in the center of the room. As Rowan sat down there came a sudden shock of rain against the east­ ern windows. The sweat of agony broke out upon him as he thought of Prudence in the arbor, and he rose from the chair Involuntarily. “I have but a single word to say,” he began, without a notion as to what that word might be. “To say more would be to waste your time as well as my “I would willingly grant you the en­ tire evening," said the judge urbanely. "Pray resume your seat aud speak without haste.” He waved bis band with a gesture of firm but gentle authority that had quelled a thousand lawyers in the courts. Rowan subsided, with the sen­ sations of a little dog doing a trick. He strove to think of what he should say to the judge, but his mind would consider nothing except the roof of ’ ' XK HMTA39L** • wait-— “Holy Moses!" exclaimed Rowan springing to bls feet. “1—1 beg youi pardon.

And the rain resounded In the pause that followed., “To resume." said Judge Prior in that deliberate tone of his which had never seemed to Rowan so slow before, “it Is so astonishingly easy to mismanage even the simplest matter when onw must plan for two, and a woman By­ ways bears the major part of the joint burden of disaster.” , “True, true!” cried Rowan, rising once more and turning toward the win­ dow, which the rain now steadily as­ sailed. The sight reduced him to the level of desperation where one often finds an inspiration waiting. \ “Judge Prior,” he exclaimed, “this Is all I wish to say: I believe your W 7 acres of s 10 acres of n w K o< n ’e k of see 7.

You will not permit her to give me any promise. She must remember me as one of whom her father disapproved. Is not that putting me under an unfair disadvantage. Your Influence will al­ ways be against me"— “Not at all,” interrupted tbe judge. "I see your point clearly, and I am glad you have made it Your mind shall be set at rest Immediately. I will tell her In your presence precisely what my views are, and you will find them sat­ isfactory.” He stepped toward the door, while Rowan, with his eye on the umbrella in the corner, fairly gasped at the near prospect of deliverance. He saw for a moment the white cameo of the judge’s clean cut face against the dark oak panel. Then the door swung open, re­ vealing the lighted hall beyond. ' "Prudence!” exclaimed her father. “What’s the matter, child? Here is Mr. Rowan”— ■ "I don’t want to see him I" sobbed the girl. "I never want to see him again! Look at my hat!” "This Is most extraordinary,” said the judge, taking her hand and draw­ ing her Into the library. “Why, you’re all wet”— “And just look at my bat!" She held it at arm’s length, and the sad blue mass dripped audibly upon the hardwood floor. “Why didn’t you come with the urnbrella?” she demanded suddenly of ^towan. His voice stuck in his throat He waved bis hand feebly toward the judge. . “Father," continued Prudence, “I am going to my room to change my dress. As for Mr. Rowan, I am done with him forever.” . She cast one awful glance upon the speechless and trembling youth, and then, with ail the dignity which her be­ draggled gown permitted, she swept out of his sight “I will trouble you for an explana­ tion, air,” said the judge. 4 He got it,, straight out. without the slightest taint of equivocation, for Rowan had reached a point where it was a positive pleasure to accuse him­ self. Indeed he dealt with bls own fol­ . ly so frankly and displayed such a perfectiy juift yfet obviously new Apprecia­ tion of it that the judge’s resentment was transformed Into something very near to admiration. i ;^,- j j “My young friendbe said, “I think you have learned a valuable lesson.

PAUL REVERE HE discontent bred by the stamp measures of Parliament and nurtured in the secret sociei, J tiesyand caucuses that abounded in Boston burst from these bounds . I on the 29th of November, 1778, " with the issuance of a broadside, or poster as we would now term it, balling the citizens to meet and take action upon the matter. The ship “Dartmouth,” laden with tea, had arrived on the 28th, and great excitement prevailed. 3 The meeting announced was held''' j , and addressed by noted patriots, who urged the people to prevent 1 the discharge of the c Samuel Adams offered a r< lution “that the tea should not be landed; that it should be sent back in the same bottom to the place whence it came, and at all events that no duty should be paid on it” This was unani­ mously adopted, and a guard of twenty-five men was appointed to support it Paul Revere was one of this number, and with others watched the ship that night An­ other meeting was held the next day and the owners of the “Dart- ■ mouth” ind two other tea ships which ha 1 arrived were compel­ led to promise to send them back to England without unloading. Governor Hutchinson upset this peaceful solution of the matter by forbidding the issuance of clear­ ance papers for the ships until the cargoes should be discharged. This further inflamed the citi­ zens, and on the 16th of Decern- T ing House.

XXIIL, No. 9 BOARD OF EDUCATION CTS FROM RECORDS OVER FIFTY YEARS OLD. Difficulties of School District No. 1 in Raising Money to Build “an Union School House.1’ Among the early records stored away is a closet of our Union school building there is tfne volume which reveals to .' the driver in the past Interesting data concerning; the good old pioneer days ef Hasting*, when a young and intelllgent community was straggling to pro­ vide itself with what every American community considers Indispensable—a graded^ union school. The volume is tbe record of proceeding* of “School Dirt. No. 1” and its first record is dated September 30, I860. A few extracts from the earlier page* - of this book may prove interesting to cur readers as showing bow the pio­ neer* of 52 years ago managed school stflair*. At this meeting we find that Nathan Barlow, Jr., was appointed moderator, H. A. Goodyear, director, and William Tinkler, assessor. It was moved and seconded that ten dollars be raised for contingent expenses and it was voted that “tbe school teacher be hired in the ensuing year St's rate per month that such teacher board at his or her expense.” Also that “three hun­ dred dollars be raised for the purpose of building an union school house.” Thus it will be seen that the .first step towards building “an union school house1’ wm taken. But unfortunately, it would seem, tbe step,wm not followed at once by action. For under date of Aug- 27, 1851, is this record: ’The taxes voted to be raised according to the foregoing statements were not col­ lected, in consequence of some illegal-' ity in making out the taxes.” ' The next year, however, a second at­ tempt wm made to raise money for a union school building, atjd this time more successfully. At an adjourned meeting Oct. 6th, 1851, it wm voted to raise by tax the sum of 8300, m part of tbe amount needed for this purpose and a committee wm appointed “to procure a site for school house, and also to re­ ceive draughts and proposals for build­ ing said school house." The chair appointed as such com­ mittee Wm. C. Hoyt, Wm. Upjohn, H. A. Goodyear, O. B. Sheldon and Geo. W. Mills. On Nov. J, this committee reported to an adjourned meeting “in fovorof a block of three acres on the north side of the river and owned by H. A. Goodyear m tbe most convenient rite for school house” and.the report wm accepted. It wm next voted to pay the price of 8150 for tbe lot and that “the expense* of the completion of »aid school house, aside from the price of the rite, should not exceed 81,600. ” A ' powered with authority to contract for rite and to do all other necessary busi­ ness in making a contract for the erec­ tionand completion of the said school bouse.” This committee was composed of Henry A. Goodyear, Geo. W. Mills, G. N. Boltwood, Wm. C. Hoyt, Hernan I. Knapen, N. S. Palmer, Luther W. contract with Mr. Barlow was at the same pride. :X.‘: ’ ' ■ The new school must have been com­ pleted by the fall of 1852. For we find that at that time “the job for furnish­ ing twenty cords of wood, one half green and the other half dry, was let to Harvisy Butler for sixty cents a cord, to. be delivered on the ground at the: new school house well corded up.”; Wood was cheaper in those days than At is now! At this same meeting the old school house and lot were sold to R. J. Grant for 1150. It is not necessary to go further into the details of the building of what was to the young community an expensive seat of learning. The undertaking was undoubtedly more burdensome to these pioneers than the raising of ten times the amount to the present gener­ ation. The building tbeq erected did service until Itstiettructlonby fire gave occasion for the erection or the pres­ ent handsome structure on the same grounds. Going back again to the early days, the records show .that in the winter of 1851 and 2 a term of 4| months was taught by I. S. Geer at the rate of 820.00 per month. “An assistant teacher, viz. Mrs. Margaret Geer, also taught 12 weeks during said term, at the rate of twelve shillings per week. ” School was taught in the summer of 1852 by Miss Cordelia Warner, at the rate of 816.00 per month. The whole number of scholars In the district between the ages of four and eighteen years was 175, “making an increase of 20 scholars since the last census of the district in 1851.” The new school seems to have very soon become inadequate to the demands made upon it by the increase in popula­ tion; for at the annual meeting of 1854 “one thousand dollars was ordered to be raised Tor the purpose of building an addition to the school house of thirty feet” and a committee consisting of Henry Edgecomb, Henry E. Hoyt and Russell B. Wightman was appolntedfto act in conjunction with the board as a building committee. At this meeting Willard Hayes was elected moderator, Henry A. Goodyear, director, and James G. McLellan, assessor. The number of scholars in the district was 265. At the annual meeting Sept. 29,1857, it was ordered that all scholars outside Of the district be required to pay their tuition in advance at the rate of 82.50 per term of twelve weeks. In 1856 the amount paid to teachers was 8736.50. • In 1859 it was voted “to proceed to organize Under act to establish graded or high school.” Nathan Barlow and John M. Nevins were elected trustees for one year, Dr. John Roberts and K. B. Wightman for two years, and Geo. W. Mills and John L. VanBrunt for three years. In 1860 the expenses of running theschools, with four teachers, were 81277.81. We have copied enough from the old record to show how our present fine school system had its beginning a half a century ago. To the older citizens the account will no doubt awaken many memories of the past, and to the pres­ ent generation it will give some idea of the manner in which the founders of this goodly city build ed for posterity wisely and well. But even now things did not run smoothly as might have been desired.

New York in particular, shows a great variety of fruit packages. Tbe most popular and satisfactory package. for strawberries is the thirty-two quart carrier, now quite universally used. Fruit properly ripened, packed and shipped under favorable condi­ tions usually arrives in these packages in the most distant markets in first class condition. The greatest irregularity is seen in the peach basket. Tbe bulk of fruit from tbe south is packed and shipped la the six basket carrier, one of the rery best and most convenient pack­ ages ever placed upon the market, par­ ticularly where fruit must be shipped long distances. Our illustration shows a package of this sort. The crate holds six baskets in two rows, with a rest or partition between. The bas­ kets usually contain four quarts, the entire package containing about fiveeights of a bushel. Tbe crates can be purchased “knocked down” ready tg be put together. The lAikets are com­ plete and ready for use? The price for six basket carriers varies somewhat In different sections of the country.

A LESSON IN PHYSICS. Most boys and girls have heard, no loubt. thrft, although water may be nade to boil at the top of a high mounatn, it cannot be made hot enough to >oil an egg. Perhaps they have puziled over this a good deal, wondering vhy the egg will not boll if the water loes. They know very well that if an •gg be dropped into boiling water in he kitchen at their bouse and allowed o remain five minutes it will be boll•d nearly as bard as a stone. Why. hen. will It not do tbe same on a oountaln top? ^Tbe reason is that it requires leas teat to boll water on a mountain top _ han it does down at tbe sea level, and he water, therefore, does not get hot mough to cook the egg.

It was'probably one of those cases where necessity was the mother of invention, and that it was in use before Columbus lauded in America is established by the fact that mention is made of tbe Indians “cooking tbe fish upon logs on the banks of tbe river," says the Brooklyn Eagle. They bad no broilers or frying paua, and since they could not eat raw shad it is a self evident proposition they must have cooked it upon logs be­ fore the fire, for the oily nature of ths shad would have burned and smoked If it was suspended over tbe fire. It if fair, then, to argue that planked shad was the first way shad was cooked, and It is now becoming the most sensi­ ble. easiest and best way to prepare the fish for tbe table. There are many who have never tried it, however, and suppose planked shad must be prepared before the fire, as the old timers used to do. Tbe ex­ planation of the process and the why of it is as follows: In all woods there is an acid, which can be recovered by distillation or beat, different woods different acids, in the same class of woods, as oak, different acids; this difference is the cause of tbe different kind of apples, and yet they all grow on ,apple trees. Tbe cause is in tbe add that is in the wood. 'After a trial of all kinds of wood, white oak grown on tbe hummocks of southern Florida bus been found to contain tbe add of just the right kind, a pyroligneous add that, uniting with the oil of the shad, makes a gas that Imparts to the fish a luscious, sweet and pleasing flavor. The plank is made about 12 inches wide, 16 inches long and 2 inches thick, well battered on tbe ends to prevent checking, for wood is not expected to stand fire and heat and lasts only a limited time in this service. The plank should be heated and the top lightly buttered (do not use bacon or salt pork, for it counteracts tbe deli­ cate flavor), the shad split down tbe back and laid upon the plank skin side down, the roes being placed in tbeir natural position, one on each side, a slight spread of butter over tbe shad and roes and a sprinkling of salt and pepper. The whole should be placed in a hot oven. In from thirty to forty-five minutes, according to tbe size of tbe shad, it Will be cooked. The whole plank and shad should be brought on tbe table. .-m- Tbe gain In tbe vigor of the plants by transplanting is well worth tbe addi­ tional expanse. As Is shown in the il­ lustration, transplanting tends to pro­ duce a short, strong, vigorous plant, with an Increased root area and feed­ ing capacity, one able to support Itself by its own stem wkhout artificial sup port. In the first transplanting into the cold frames the plants mny be placed about an Inch apart each way. but this distance must be increased if only one transplanting is to be given. Too close planting causes deficient HghL and tbe plant spindles up, weak in stem, with a yellowish, green scant foliage and poorly developed roots In tbe second transplanting the plants should be at least two and a half or three inches npart As tbe plants increase In size and strength more air may be given, and the cloth or glass should be entirely removed for several days before the plants are to be set In the field, in or der that they may become sufficiently “hardened off” to prevent injury from sudden cold snaps after planting.

The 'magazine with which we have made this arrangement is the Pilgrim, an excellent literary periodical published at Battle Creek. This magazine has recently come into the hands of a new company who are hustlers. They are sparing no pains to make the Pilgrim a high clSss azine and they are succeeding admira­ bly. It compares favorably with the leading periodicals of its kind, such as the Ladies' Home Journal and the Sat­ urday Evening Post, both in typograph­ ical appearance and in literary merit. For the sake of piecing this excellent monthly within the reach of all our readers, we have decided tp make them the following remarkable offer: The regular subscription price of tbe Pilgrim is one dollar. All who pay one dollar for the Herald and TWEN­ TY-FIVE CENTS ADDITIONAL will receive the Pilgrim one year, begin­ ning with the September number. The Pilgrim will be sent direct from the publishers.

The English people are making a great fuss over Kitchener, just return­ ed from the conquest of South Africa. The ovations to which he has con­ stantly been subjected since he landed at Portsmouth, participated in by every class of the people, from tbe rabble of London to the court of St. James and tbe king himself, remind one of the welcome which the American people paid to Admiral Dewey on his return from Manila. And it to probable that the hero of South Africa, being a plain and modest soldier, as Dewey was a plain and modest sailor, is astonished equally with the latter at such extrava­ gant demonstrations in hto honor. Both incidents show how prompt and hearty are the English speaking peo­ ples in recognizing genuine worth. Whether Kitchener to a soldier of the highest genius, like Napoleon and Grant, may never be known. He has never been in command of such vast armies and undertaken such magnifi­ cent operations as fell to the lot of these great chieftains, and it to not like­ ly that such opportunities will ever come to him. But he has fully demon­ strated hto capacity for successful cam­ paigning under the peculiar conditions that confronted him both in the Soudan, where he had to overcome the most try­ ing geographical and climatic obstacles in order to reach his semi-savage enemy, and in the South African coun­ try, where the problem was to get at and destroy an exceedingly alert and shrewd enemy that fought under cover, with smokeless powder, and unerring marksmanship and defied every effort to capture them. Under such meth­ ods of guerrila warfare it to not like­ ly that any general, however great hto genius, could have done any better than Kitchener has done. Certain It to that other British generals failed completely and Kitchener has succeed­ ed, and although the sacrifice was tre­ mendous and the agony was longdrawn out, this plain, business like, practical, soldier, has led hto country’s armies in the only possible way to suecqsa. As such a soldier, be undoubted­ ly deserves the honor which hto grati­ fied countrymen are ehowering upon Wm. , : ’ The Grand Rapids democrats have set an example of harmony th^t to most timely aqd inspiring. Ax their recent ^meeting representative men of both factions were present and took an active part in the speaking and In preparing the ringing resolutions that were adopted. Silver democrats said pleas­ ant things about the old time leaders present who belonged to the gold wing of the party, and gold demoorats de­ clared that they were glad to be once more in a democratic meeting, feeling that they were welcome. A vote>of confidence in the present chairman and secretary of the county democratic com­ mittee. both silver democrats,was passed, and a committee, mode up of men who were widely at variance on the questions of 1896, was appointed to asatot the county committee'in the work of the coming campaign. There were no criticisms of the past, no charges of “treason,” no insinuations or reflec­ tions upon the motives of the men, who differed so hopelessly on the money question six years ago, no tearing open of old sores. Jn, short the meeting was a genuine and patriotic effort of the two wings of the party to get together, bury past differences and present a united and determined front to the common enemy, and as such it was a grand success.

About 5:00 o’clock Friday afternoon fire broke out at the wool boot factory in some shoddy in the shoddy room just as it was being blown through a tube into tbe mixing room, and things were pretty lively there rfor about an hour. As both rooms are lined with iron the blaze was confined to these rooms, but the water which had to be used to quench the flames wasn’t and it wet things up badly. The large tube used to convey tbe shoddy to tbe room where wool is mixed with it was melted and that ]X)rtion of the factory was put out of wbrking order for a short time. D. W.

When such men, with the experience he has had with all kinds ofi devices for harness, take hold of an article, it must have the merit to insure success. Mr. Seeler is now in Cleveland O., attending a national meeting of wholesale dealers and the hook is being exhibited for the first time to the men who pushed the trade on worthy articles.

At 75 cents a bunch asparagus is E luxury, at 25 cento it may be used sparingly and freely when it reaches the two for a quarter stage. Choose that which is not too fully grown. Short stalks, partly green, on which the buds have not separated, are most desirable. The large buds are better than the small ones. Notice the broken stalks In front of the bunch in the illustration. There are two Inches or more which would never cook tender and which would better be removed before the edible portion is cooked, as this part is likely to be strong or bitter in flavor. Asparagus, even if slightly wilted, can be improved by breaking off the tough ends, washing and putting the stalks upright in water for a few hours before cooking. Few people use real intelligence about washing strawberries. Some say never wash them, forgetting the many bands thdy may have passed through and the long distance and clouds of dust through which they often travel. .

Little or no opposition was shown to the petition asking for a marginal rule on corn. It was generally conceded to be a proper and Justifiable petltlon, and one which could be granted without violating the policy of the board. As to the petition seeking a change in the. rules regarding tbe sale and delivery of No. 3 corn, it was said that the petition reflected the hopes of the “shorts” alone, and would have little chance of favorable action by the directors. .

PAUL REVERE As a result of this action laws were passed in Parliament closing the port of Boston and in other ways restricting the liberties of the people of Massachusetts. Al­ though the purpose of these was to crush the rebellious spirit of the Colonists, they served only to further inflame them, and Paul Revere was soon riding again to enlist the support of the Southern provinces in behalf of Massachu­ setts. He was enthusiastically received in New York, and reach­ ed Philadelphia on the 20th of May, after a journey of six days. Here a meeting of citizens was immediately held, at which it was unanimously resolved to make the cause of Boston their own. Bearing letters of sympathy, Re­ vere returned to Boston, while a correspondence committee which was appointed at the Philadel­ phia meeting s$nt copies of their acts, accompanied by a sugges­ tion for a General Congress, to New Yotk and the Colonies to the south.

The promised rate war between the rail and late lines operating be­ tween Detroit and Buffalo is now on in full blast, the opening gun having been fired yesterday, when the Detroit & Buffalo Steamboat Co. announced that it had established its first-class rate at exactly one-half of the secondclass rail rate, thus making the rate by boat leas than one cent a mile, and allowing all first-class privileges. The trouble between the rail and lake lines began when the former began to run week-end excursions to Buffalo and selling second-class tickets for 85, and on them allow­ ing first-class privileges, checking bag­ gage and granting sleeping car privi­ leges without restriction. General Passenger Agent A. A. Schantz, of the Detroit & Buffalo line, when he learn­ ed of this, notified the passenger agents of the Grand Trank, Wabash and Michigan Centra) roads that unless some restriction was made he would proceed to cut the rates not only on week-end excursions but on regular traffic. He fixed a 10-day limit on this action, but the railroads could not see the situation from his point of view and would not meet bis proposition. The ten days expired yesterday, and the Detroit & Buffalo line at once inaugurated a $2.50 regular rate to Buffalo, a distance of 256 miles—less than a cent a mile. Mr. Schantz said yesterday that should the railroads want a rate war and meet the present cut he would comeldown another dollar, and, If necessary, carry passengers on the Eastern States and Western States for 50 cents. Speaking of the situation yesterday, Schantz Mid that the new Detroit and Buffalo boats were built for legitimate business, and they had created this largely by the week-end excursions, something which, until the new boats went on the run, had not existed be­ tween the two terminals. Tfie new rate fixed by the steamboat line will make a through rate to New York on all lines except the New York Central, $10.60; Boston, 813.40, and Philadelphia, 810.40, with special rates to eastern summer resorts: from Buffalo to Detroit,«260, Saginaw «5.M, Bay City «&**, Grand Rapid, *7.09.

The forerunners of the Great Wal­ lace Show have made numerous prep­ arations for the coming of that show to Hastings on August 14. From now until, that date a large portion of our juvenile citizens, with the same proportion of the older ones, will be anticipating with much satis­ faction the promised visit of the Wal­ lace Show. In front of the circus ring and in the presence of the sawdust and action, and' within the hearing of A great symphony band, politics are laid aside, creeds are shelved, cares are shifted and kings and queens of society and at business affairs touch elbows with the professional and la­ boring man. A big circus like the Wallace Show brings all kinds of peo­ ple on a level for one day at least. The time was when people did not study closely the advertising of a cir­ cus. This has been changed.

CARR K|LLED gy CARS _____ Other Once Again. ON MICHIGAN CENTRAL RAILROAD May 15th last the Herald published an account of the accidental meeting of Maud Josephine Ranney and her broth­ er, Geo. D. Ranney, in Alexandria,' La., last March. They are the children of Mr. and Mrs- D. C. Ranney of this city. The former has been away from home over eight years, but occasionally wrote to her parents. The latter has been away ten years last April, but never wrote home, and for a number of years had been mourned as dead. Mr. and Mrs. Ranney were indeed happy when they received a lettar from the daughter conveying the gl$ news that George was alive. There was rejoicing in the Ranney family at that time, but nothing com­ pared with the past week, and at the present time. For two weeks Mrs. Ranney has been with her son and daughter at Denton Harbor and other places. Saturday night she returned homo and her daughter and her son's wife also came. Sunday there was a family reunion, at which all tbe children, excepting George, were present, viz: Mr. and Mrs. James W. Clarke and Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Dubois of Dowling, Mr. and Mrs. Claude Booth of this city and Maud Josephine and Mrs. Geo. D. Ranney. Maude Josephine, known as “Josie, th*e Aerialist,” left Monday afternoon for Alma, as she had co be there Tues­ day evening. She is with the Robin­ son Carnival Company, of which her brother is manager. Her visit was a very short one, but on a promise to return home in November she was al­ lowed, to depart and fill her engage­ ment. Josie is one of the most clever serialises on the road, Tuesday, George came home and in­ tends to remain all the week. To tbe show world he is known as James Murphy and is manager of two shows. He has been nearly all over the world. AT MORGAN. Was Walking an Track and Paid No Attention Whatever to Danger Signal. Another Victory.

Keokuk, Iowa, July 21.—Flood losses In the Mississippi valley south of Keokuk are estimated at $6,000,000, with the situation continuing to grow worse and every prospect that this amount will be increased two or-throe millions. Everywhere throughout the section the most abundant crops ever known are under water deep enough 4 to float a steamboat, and farmers who ten days ago were Wealthy are to-day penniless and homeless. The most of this loss is on the Mis­ souri side of the river, between Keo­ kuk and Hannibal. All this territory was practically covered with cprn a fortnight ago estimated to make sev­ enty-five to a hundred bushels to the acre. The loss Is total. Experience is that if the water stays forty-eight hours it kills corn- even four Inchesunder the surface, and every stalk wet by waves- perishes from rotting roots. Much of that back from the channel looks to the casual observer as if it would recover when the flood subsides, but a month will see It all brown and sear River I* Rising. Queen O.

E- KENAstov, The river Is rising all tne time, six inches during the day in the’linmense area of 700 square miles, and the worst to come by an extension of the flooded area by the water passing levees it is now topping. The chief flood thus far Is on the Missouri side, from Keokuk to Louisi­ ana, with Canton and West Quincy as centers of the country hurt the worst. 1 On the Illinois side arc three continu­ ous levees for forty miles from War­ saw to Quincy above the water and thus far safe, but farmers are afraid of crevasses from muskrat holes, and every nod of the redoubt is watched day and night. The breaking of these levees would flood 175 square miles In Illinois and destroy $2,000,000 to $3.­ 000,000 worth of corn. The levees be­ low Quincy are in the same situation, except that tiiey are lower and less । firm. Opposite Quincy in Missouri is still another center of special devastation. North twelve miles to La Grange and south to Holton large prairies are well under water, reaching . from the Illi­ nois bluffs to the Missouri bluffs, at least ten miles. Levees hastily thrown around farms have disappeared in a fierce current rushing from above through the draw of the Burlington bridge. carrying everything before 1L Lone Tree prairie, ten miles square, is deserted, the population having flown to Quin­ cy and the bluffs on the Missouri side. Fabius river, fifteen miles above Han­ nibal, Is high and furnishing a route for the Mississippi to flank and re­ verse the levee, as the Fox river does forty miles up the Mississippi. This flanking movement makes even the highest Missouri levees ineffective. Around La Morte, Silverton. Busch Station, Clemens, Ashburn, north of Hannibal, there is more wheat than at other places, and all in the shock is mostly washed away. The chief crop there is corn, zhowever, and there is the same ruin as at other places. Des Moines Raging.

Surely the mere suggestion of such a thing, if made seriously, would be a base reflection on the stability of the' institutions of tbe British empire. And the whole gushinem of these English editorials is the more absurd when the change of a British ministry is contrasted with the much more radi­ cal change in government which takes place in our own country every time a new president Is Inaugurated. And if American institutions can passthrough a far greater political transformation without the least danger to the ship of state or the least trepidation of the people.it would bo astonishing if an­ other great English speaking nation, with similar ideas of government and similar powers of self control should ibe set into a state of panic by a change of ministrylthat does not even involve a change of party or a single change in policy.. Two weeks ago the Herald took the . liberty to comment on the Banner’s peculiar conception of what constipates the duty of a party organ, such aa it claims to be. We did so in the hope that if ito inconsistency in posing as a party organ and at tbe same time wag­ ing bitter warfare against Gov. Bliss were kindly brought to ite attention, it might recede from such an absurd po, rition, cease claiming to be a party ’ organ and come out squarely for the democrats. We were actuated by the deaire to induce our contemporary to abandon the painful position in which it finds itself in consequence of its try­ - ing to be a party organ when by tbe very nature of its antagonism to Bliss . it is not a party organ. But, alas, our well meant efforts have been coldly received, misunder­ stood and distorted. We have been re­ minded that it Is not tbe Herald’s affair and that “the republicans of Barry -county have for a long time demonstrated their ability to look after their own affairs without the aid ot suggestions inspired by the benevo­ lence of their political opponents.” We have even been accused by our ■ contemporary of misrepresenting our own manhood and our own party and being a party slave.

TEETHING BABIES LAXAKOLA children the old-faahloced, violent purgatives which are racking and griping, and are therefore not only unpleasant, but dangerous. Lasakola does not gripe nor Irritate. It la a pure, gentle and painless liquid laxative. It la not only a sure laxative, but it contains valuable tonic properties which not only net upon tho bowels, but tone up the entire system and purify the blood. A few drops can be given with safety to very young babies, and will-often relieve colic by expelling the wind and gaa that cause it. Great relief Is experienced whan administered to young children suffering ft-oin diarrba-a, accompanied with white or green evacua­ tions, aa LAXAKOLA neutralises the acidity of the bowels and carries out the cause o£ the fermentation. It will aid digestion, relieve restleMueM, assist nature, and induce sleep.*For constipation, simple fevers, coated tongue, or any infantile troubles trial ng from a disordered condition of the stomach it is invaluable.

We are here to nominate a state ticket. If elected, the officers can do nothing affecting national ques­ tions. They can neither further nor retard any project about which people divide as democrats and republicans. Let us then, as practical men loving our state, proud of her record, tender of her name, and interested in her govern­ ment, consider the subjects which are practical, which pertain to her well-be­ ing about which we can accomplish something. Let us then, forgetting, at least for the time being, past differ­ ences, lay aside pettv personal consider­ ations and Invite the co-operation of all citizens who desire what is best for our state.

In Paris a gentleman who is very fond of fine paintings bought for 15.000 francs a work entitled “The Bride of Abydos’’ and was congratulating him­ self on becoming Its possessor when he suddenly remembered that his wife disliked very much to see him spend his money In this manner. “How can I avoid a scene?” he asked himself. "If I say that the painting cost 15,000 francs, there will be an awful time, and so I'd better say 7.000. No; I ll say 4,000 " By (bls time he had reached home, and when be saw bls wife he told her unblusblngly that he had Just secured a beautiful work of art for the nomi­ nal sum of 3,000 francs. At this good hews she seemed more disconcerted than pleased, but said nothing, and the painting was hung up. Next day the gentleman was obliged to go to tbe south of France, and when he returned after a week’s absence bls wife met him with a beaming coun­ tenance and said: “I've done a good stroke of business while you were away.

Prion A breeder who owns a large herd of cattle was recently urged to name a price on a sire whose produce show him to be very impressive and valua­ ble. He refused to do so, and probably he was right, says a live stock ex­ change. He is In the business to stay, and a sire of high merit can do much good in his great breeding herd. There are many small breeders who might profit by his exanjple. though usually they, are without great temptation to pare with the beads of their herds. When a sire proves his worth tts a breeder, stick to him. In spite of all our Improvements of live stock really good sires are not picked up every­ where. When one is found, he should be used long and carefully. A considerable number of Texas eastern dope of the ’ That which was predieted has begun to happen. The first carload of grass fed cows reached Chicago June 16 from Bofith Dakota, nine head averaging 1,0/3,pounds and setting at >5.10 per hundredweight Whether tbe price is enough to induce many more to send hi grass fed -stock or whether there is much more to be sent in we do not know, says American Agriculturist, but we think that many who had stock lust fall and thought they could not afford to feed corn at tbe prevailing prices wUl begin to send forward their stock aa fast as they can get it to looking fairly plump and smooth, and the result is likely to be a decline on light beef, al­ though heavy ctyu fed young animals may not go lower than they are now. Whether tbe beef trust is making an exorbitant profit on meets or not and whether board of trade'gamblers are forcing grain above a proper price or not we do not know, but we are confi­ dent that thb farmer who has fed bls stock liberally on grain (be part winter has made money by doing so if he has Bold beef at market rates, and those who have not may do well in the sale of grass fed beef If they have good, thrifty animals and good pastures. ’ We do not look for much lower prices fn beef for at least three years, or in mutton. Pork will be affected more quickly because while the cow seldom has more than one calf In a year the sow may have two Utters, and eight at a Utter 1b a fair average. Thus, while the cattle only Increase 100 per cent or less, the swine may increase 1.000 per cent, and If corn can be grown or bought there is likely to We an Increase iu their number which will far exceed any increase in the cattle production. Not since the early seventies have country-dressed bogs in tbe round sold at over 8 cents a pound that w*e-remem­ ber. Then corn was so high many would not buy it to feed to fattening stock, yet we thought we never found any better profit in Its use than then, unless It was In 1806. when we paid $5 per hundredweight for It and fattened two sows, so that It costs us less than 3 cents a pound, besides the sklmmilk from one cow and a few unmerchant­ able vegetables, for pork that weighed about 300 pounds to the carcass. Nor da we expect to see sheep selling much lower than at present. Wool la working up gradually in price, though manufacturers are trying to bold it down, blit their trade has Increased so that they have had to buy more this year than last year or for several years past, and as wool goes up sheep grow­ ers are less willing to sell, and with the supply offered for sale growing less or consisting of sheep past their prime and yearling wethers, it is scarcely like­ ly that there will be much surplus of prime mutton in tbe market, and lambs that are not dropped when they can be fattened to obtain the highest prices will be added to the flocks. We would advise those who think of becoming vegetarians that they can scarcely begin too soon for their own interests, for we think three or four years must pass before we see beef or mutton any lower priced than now, and poultry may prove tbe cheapest meat food, especially if grown at home and properly cared for. < US Bl RULING West Virginia Jurist Says Decision Is Just and Ac­ cording to law. IMPEACHMENT HAS NO TERROR Contends if Miners’ Claims are True He Has Only Committed an error of Judgment, From Which an Appeal May Ba Taken. Wheeling, W. Va., July 28.—Judge John Jay Jackson of the federal court consented to make a statement rela­ tive to the reported movement to im­ peach him and remove him from the bench. He thinks its object is to in­ timidate him and frighten him into changing his position with reference to the mine workers and to prevent any further punishment of violators of his injunction for contempt of court "I do not know whether the report ‘ is true or not, nor do I care,” said Judge Jackson. “I do not fear any proceedings of that nature, and I regard the entire matter as perfectly absurd. “Impeach me? .

Paris, July 28.—Dense crowds ot nationalists, socialists and clericals filled the Rue Royale, the Champs Elysees, and the Place de la ConcofdeSunday and attempted to riot over . the closing of the Catholic schools. There were many fights and a number of priests xere mobbed, one narrowly escaping a ducking inthe Seine; but the mounted police held the big crowds in hand, keeping them constantly on the move, and the day ended without a serious encounter. The crowd which gathered in the Place de la Concorde numbered 15,000 persoqs, while as many more thronged. the Champs Elysees. The clerical and anti-clerical forces about equally divlded the gatherings. The former were distinguishable by the red, whiteand blue paper flowers which they wore, while the ’ latter sported red eglantines.

The sale brought a large num­ ber of prominent lumbermen and land speculators to the city, but the bidding was not lively, and cJhly a small pro­ portion of the lands were sold at auc­ tion. Tbe law provides that all pub­ lic lands, after being offered at public auction, may be sold at private sale, and it is the experiance of land buy­ ers that better terms can be -secured by waiting until after the bidding Is over and then securing the land* for what they have been appraised.

The jury in that case have determined the necessity for such drain and for tbe taking of private property for the use and benefit of tbe public and tbe just compensation to be made therefor, which compensation they determined without reference to any benefits which accrued to the land in consequence of the drain. It is clear that some property through which tbe drain passes would be bene­ fited more than others. But each owner has his day in court provided by law, where he may be heard and a right to appeal allowed by law, and Ln every case a right to compensation for property taken. Need I say that this proceeding is not in this particular governed by the police power of the state nor by taxation, but solely by the law of eminent domain. Here the complainants are powerless. They must sacrifice their property or have it taken from them without a hearing and without compensation, simply because they are upper riparian owners. This is not reasonable nor right and is in direct violation of rights granted them by fundamental laws of ths land. The discussion concludes as follows: It therefore follows that tbe property rights of complainants in Thornapple lake can only be taken by the defend­ ant, if at all. under the law of eminent domain, whether this lake be navigable or not. As this disposes of the case, it is not necessary to discuss any of the other questions raised. The complainants are entitled to a perpetual injunction in this case. nnen wcaiui aue xbcu When wealth accumuiavee accumulate* and men acuy decay* ELOQUENT WORDS AT THE STATE Even in our own fair peninsula long JUDGE WINSOR DECIDES FOR THE COMPLAINANTS; since the dollar has been placed far CONVENTION. above the man.

But he certainly is the hardest tackier I ever met It’s my be­ lief Tommy would Jar a freight engine if he made a good plunge at it’’ After Tommy’s graduation his uncle offered him a position at the Walnut mines. "It will do the boy good," said the uncle, “and knock some of tbe college nonsense out of him." Tommy was far from regarding his college education as nonsense, but he was anxious to get a practical knowl­ edge of mining, ro he accepted tbe po­ sition without discussing with his un­ cle the value of a collegiate training. His principal duties at the mine were to keep track of the time the men worked and the number of tons of coal brought out of tbe mine. This was not exactly the work Tommy had looked forward to while-in college, but be ac­ cepted tbe situation philosophically. , "I want to find out all about tbe busi­ ness.” thought Tommy cheerfully, "and tbe best way is to get what I can out of the job I’m on. Something better will turn up later.” Because he was big and good n.itured and free from egotism everybody at tbe mines liked Tommy, it was one of tbe boasts of tbe Walnut mine own­ ers that they had never bad a strike. When the miners In the Quincy mines across the river went out, the Walnut miners refused to join them, ao one moaning a deputation was sent over to rouse a sympathetic strike. The strik­ ers’ deputation was led by “Big Bill” Tomlinson. Bill was over six feet tall, weighed 250 pounds and bad the repu­ tation of being the best boxer and wrestler in that district. Unless be had been drinking, however*, Bill was good natured and not given to abusing bis strength. On this particular morning Bill had felt that his position as tbe leader of tbe strikers called on him to is tbe rule of this game." Bill’s temper was now fully aroused. Should be, tbe leader of tbe strikers, be thwarted by a young fellow just out of college? From the door to the spot where Tommy was standing was about twenty feet, and BlU came forward with a rush. As Tommy saw the big miner rush­ tag at him there flashed through bls mind the memory of a November after­ noon when the Yale center rush bad broken through the line and, ball under bls arm, was plunging toward the goat Tommy’s tackle had saved the day then. Perhaps it would work again. ' "Low and hard Is tbe word,” thought Tommy, and, setting-bls teeth I and gathering every muscle in his body for tbe spring, he plunged forward. Tbe beauty about a skillfully execut­ ed football tackle Is that the harder the other man is coming forward the more violently be la thrown. Bill had plunged forward with ail the force of every ounce of muscle in bis big body. Tommy caught him just above tbe knees and threw a little twist Into the tackle. It had taken the head coach reeks to teach Tommy that twist In the end be bad learned it thoroughly. BlU was hurled through tbe air and came down with a heavy jkr partly on his left shoulder and partly on his head. Tommy extricated himself and stood ready to meet the rush of strik­ ers which be thought was coming. Bill stayed on tbe floor. But the rush of strikers didn't come. Instead they stared in open mouthed amazement first at Tommy, who wue standing with the blood running from a little cut on bls lip and a cheerful, expectant look on his fsce, and then at the prostrate BllL One of tbe miners gave a little chuckle. "Did you see the way the kid threw Bill?’ he said admiringly. "He certain­ ly Is a winner.” Bill rose to his feet alowly and pain­ fully. with a look on his face not of an­ ger. but of utter surprise. Tommy stood alert, not looking for trouble, but ready to meet It If It came. But Bill’s Intentions were peaceable. He extend ed bls hand to Tommy, gazing at him with a new found respect"Shake hands. Tommy,” said be. "It’s all right about the mine. I dor.t believe any of uh want to go down to­ day. It might not be healthy. Bnt, Tommy.” he added, “they certainly d.d learn you more In your school than readin’, writln’ and figurin'." And Bill and his followers trudgedpeacefully away from tbe 'Walnut mines. Tommy related the incident to bls nncle that evening. Tbe latter was In diguant at the. audacity of the strikers In daring to interfere with hla mines. “Some one ought to complain to the police." "I don't believe J shall.” replied Tom­ my thoughtfully. "I can’t see that I have anything to complain of. And Bill, while not exactly content, seemed fully satisfied.” do entrance, A missionary In charge of a small church on the Indian reservation at Onondaga held evening services for his people at which subjects upon which he lectured were not strictly religious.

If the two state conventions recently held in Detroit be compared the ad­ vantage in favor of the democratic will appear most striking. The republican convention was dom­ inated by a machine; the democratic was not. The Influence of one man, was supreme In the republican conven' tion, and that man although a United States senator from Michigan, is sel­ dom In the state. Ths democratic con­ vention could not bo controlled by any one man, however influential he might ' -‘ • . ... -j , I r . E | ' -. Be-. I •_ ■ g■ i. l S 1 ■ ■ K/ f. ■ . | ./ | I [... I I L I ■ The republican convention was no more than a ratification meeting to do the work which its master had laid out ’for it. Its delegates were pledged io advance and everybody knew that Gov. Bliss would be renominated. It was not a deliberative body but a gatberlng of men who had been called to­ gether to go through certain formalities. Hence it was without spirit and enthusiasm. It did what it wasexpocted to do, but with a spirit of reluctance and silent protest that usually takes hold of free born, self-respecting American citizens when they are under the spell of a political boss. A few bold delegates appealed to the convention to throw off the yoke of subserviency to the machine and rescue the party from the disgrace which was in contemplation, but their laudable efforts were futile. The slate went through, in spite of the warnings of a few independent spirits, in obedience to the machine and In defiance of the wishes of the republican voters of the state. Turn to the democratic convention and what a contrast! Not a delegation was owned and controlled by a candi­ date. It is true that'several nounties came prepared to urge the claims of a favorite son, and right royally did they stand by him. But no man' was wise enough to say in advance who would be nominated for governor. The delegates came together unpledged, animated by the one purpose df deliberating and then choosing the best man for the head of the ticket. They were thoroughly in earnest, and anxious to do the best thing for thjs party and the state. That they suc­ ceeded in this high purpose is beyond question. After the freest and most earnest discussion their choice fell up­ on a man who was not even a candidate, who it was well known could not accept the nomination without great personal sacrifice but wbo it was felt would not refuse to submit to the wishes of his fellow citizens when he realized that* those wishes and his highest duty toi the state coincided. Thus instead of a, Convention controlled by one man it, was a convention that sought out the> man it wanted and appeafed to him to> do the will of the party. Another remarkable difference between tbe two conventions is worth noting. The republican convention was manipulated in the interest of Governor Bliss by means of the lavish use of money. Not that all the delegatee were bought, out and out for so much a piece—we should hate to believe that— Imt lhe preliminary campaign between Bliss and Stearns was notoriously a eoutest of the "barrels” and it would be interesting to know just how much these millionaire Etatesmen spen^ in fixing things for the convention. to think that Judge Durand spent gle cent in trying to capture the insttan, and it would be equally rd to charge tbe use of money np*. ay of tbe other candidates on ths atretic ticket. The people of Michigan will have a chance this fall to place in the guber­ natorial chair at Lansing one of the best known and most exemplary men in the state. Judge Durand is a man of irreproachable character, a lawyer and jurist of profound abilities, a man whose judgment has been ripened by experience, whose integrity has been tried in many places of responsibility, whofe knowledge of business and pub­ lic affairs is unusually large. He will bring to the executive office the very qualities most useful to the people of Michigan—learning, dignity, experience, knowledge of men and affairs and unswerving devotion to the welfare of the people aod the honor of the state. There never was a time when such a man was so greatly need­ ed at Lansing. There never was a better chance for the people to rebuke rank dem agog ism, incompetency and boodle ism than the nomination of Judge Durand affords them. His selection by the great convention at Detroit last week tq be the leader of a mighty re­ volt against tbe political evils that threaten our state government was an inspiration. One remarkable feature of the demo­ cratic convention was that every man on the ticket was nominated without opposition except such as be himself made. It must not be inferred from this that the various nominees were actuated by the belief that tbe ticket could not be elected. On the contrary few democratic conventions in Mich­ igan have been more hopeful and con­ fident. There was a feeling in the very air that tbe mission of the convention was to Inaugurate a great reform move­ ment that should end In victory at che polls. But this feeling did not prevent the convention from choosing men for the various offices who were riot seeking office but who were believed to be the strongest for the various positions. And although the choice in almost every instance fell upon men whose private Interests made them reluctant tbe insistence of tbe convention pre­ vailed over private wishes. It was pre­ eminently a convention in which the offices sought the men, and not men the offices. Alfred Lucking of Detroit is said to be a candidate for Lhe democratic con­ gressional nomination in the first dis­ trict, and if there could have been any doubt of his fitness for this honor pre­ vious to tbe recent state convention his masterly handling of that body would dispel it. Mr. Lucking was an admirable presiding officer—cool, goodnatured, tactful and fair—while his speech on assuming the gavel demon­ strated his powers as a forceful, logical and able public speaker. The demo­ crats of Detroit could scarcely name a better candidate for congress than the genial chairman of the late state con­ vention. Senator Helme of Adrian is to be congratulated on the splendid showing which he made for the gubernatorial nomination. Had it not been for the overwhelming sentiment that Durand was the man of the bour the lone demo­ cratic senator of the last legislature would have won the nomination. The nomination of John F. Bible of Ipnia for lieutenant governor ia an ex­ cellent one. Mr. Bible’s speech of ac­ ceptance of this place—which by the way, was almost forced upon him against his earnest protests—afforded the best of proofs that he is admirably qualified to preside over the deliberations of the state senate. Furious Racing Promised, ....... .. Racing at a meeting sometimes has objectionable features, but not so with the racing to be seen on tbe hippo­ drome track of theGreat Wallace Show, which will exhibit in Hastings on Thursday, August 14. With the evil influences of a profes­ sional race course eliminated, and the best attention given to every detail, the hippodrome racing of the Wallace Circus is real: It is fast and in earn, est. The variety of the races, togeth­ er with the required skill for turning at the short ends of. lhe track at full speed, gives to every spectator a thrill of genuine sensation. There are twelve different styles of races. Mr. Wallace pays a premium to the lafly or gentle­ man every week winning the greatest number of races during tbs week. There b no question but chat the races of the Wallace Show are on the square. Even those people who are not fond of radtag generally admit that the genuuine, exciting races of the Wallace Show are an exhilarating climax to its An Iowa paper said that, “even the tigers in the Wallace cages are larger boards.” That was an original way tbe Hawkeye editor had of expressing the genera! verdict of tbe public, that Timothy seed Potatoes*.

On Mon­ day our veteran merchant, Phin Smith, closed a deal with Wright Bros, of Buf­ falo, whereby his department store will pass into the poeseecion of the latter on the eighteenth of this month. The stores will close on that date for invoic­ ing and it Is expected they will be opened by the new proprietors on the twenty-third.. Mr. Smith has been one of Hastings’ business men for a great many years, having begun clerking here in 1862. He is undecided ae to what he will do. The total rainfall for June 1902, as recorded by John Besamer, was 5.32 inches, and for July 4.46 inches. There was rain on 19 days in June and 13 days in July. Tbe largest fall in June was on the 29th, amounting to .80; In July on the 3rd, amounting to one inch. Last year the total rainfall for June was 2:30; for July, 6.19. Thus it will be seen that more rain fell in July, 1901, tban in either Jund or July this year. But most of the precipitation of July, 11X11, was on two days, July 4 and 5, when the records were one inch and 2.70 inches respectively. The arranggmetfts for the eighth annual encampment of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Picnic Association to be held Aug. 27, 28-and 21) give promise that the occasion will be unusually in­ teresting and attractive.

Blair of Jackson, W. W. Wedemeyer of Ann Arbor, Jud^e Allen B. Morse of Ionia and possibly Gov. Bliss and Judge Durand. The state tents will be ob-' mined and everything will be done for the pleasure and comfort of the veter­ ans abd the enjoyment of all who at­ tend.

I presume that this is done with the intention of intimidating me in the hopes that I will submit to their exac­ tions. I feel that there is a principle in­ volved in this case which is worth con­ tending for. The doctrine which they advance that private corporations may take the lands of the citizens for pri­ vate use awarding to the citizen such compensation as they see fit, is a dan­ gerous doctrine. The title deed to one’s home would be of but little value if that principle should .prevail and would leave very insecure the title of every man, whose farm borders on our streams, which might- be made avail­ able as water power and would prob­ ably create a demand for incompetent engineers, who would under estimate the amount of land overflowed in every instance where the corporation wished to gain an ad vantage. . ‘ I do not feel that I am called upon to divide my farm wfth them or give them any portion of it, no matter what price they may be willing to pay.

Kalamazoo Elks are hustling these days preparing for their coming street fair and carnival, which will be held on the streets of Kalamazoo the week of August 25th to 30th inclusive. The proceeds of the street fair will be de­ voted to the fund now being raised to erect an Elks’ Temple in Kalamazoo. The famous Robinson Carnival Com­ pany of Cincinnati, has been secured by the Elks to furnish the attractions for the carnival, which will consist of sixteen or more high class, moral shows, exclusive of the'four or more absolutely free street shows, which will be given every afternoon and every evening, free to everybody who cares to see them. . These latter will consist of Prof, Record, who rides his bicycle, minus saddle and handle-bars, down an in­ clined stair way two hundred feet long, then into the cycle whirl, which is but eight feet in diameter at the top, and inside of which be rides at breakneck speed with bis body in a horizontal po­ sition. Another desperate act will be per­ formed by McComb, the champion high diver of the world, who every after­ noon and every evening will take a back somersault from a ladder ninety feet high, into a tank of water less than four feet deep. Mlle. Zenobia ascends a spiral tower inside a revolving globe, and the Brown-Razillian family will give an exhibition on the flying rings. Other attractions that will be offered are the peerless Aimee Lunettee, the flying lady; beautiful Lotto, in poses plastique; the Southern plantation; the electric palace showing moving pic­ tures of the eruption of Mt. Pelee and the battle of San Juan Hill; Osco, who eats snakes, also Hannah, the wild girl; the baby incubator, with live babies in­ side; the temple of musict a realistic illusion of the region and awful death of “She”; the Bijou Theatre; Millie Christine, the two-headed girl; the American glass blowers; “In Gay Paree;” George, the turtle boy; the Pan-American Ferris Wheel; the Eng­ lish Caroussel, and a dozen other new and novel attractions. ’ It is guaranteed that these attrac­ tions are high class, clean and moral and free from suggestions and vulgar­ ity, and that they can be visited by ladies and children without escorts. All the railroads running"into Kalama­ zoo will run excursions at reduced rates during Carnival week at Kalamazoo, and a good time is assured everyone who attends. Obituary. Katherine J.

Sterritt of Gobleville, who, the first of the year issued forged policies in the Michigan Tprnado, Cy­ clone and Windstorm insurance com­ pany, has plead guilty to the charge iu the circuit court of Berrien county, and has been let off on suspended sen­ tence, provided he pays all whom he has defrauded. The Herald called upon D. W. Rogers, the genial secretary o2 the company, Tuesday afternoon, and was surprised to learn that such a rascal as Sterritt has admitted himself to be, should be allowed to go practically free. Prominent attorneys in this city thought that because of the enormity of the crime the criminal would get about ten years’ imprisonment. Sterrftt probably issued between forty arid fifty policies, perhaps more. The letter from Berrien county’s prosecutor says that Sterritt had when he plead guilty part money enough to pay back to the holders of bogus policies and that he had 3175. Mr. Rogers showed the Herald one of the policies issued by Sterritt and the premium on it was only 33.00, and from the smallness of the amount we estimate the number of bogus policies to be between forty and fifty. The Herald believes that a judge is very lenient when he lets such selfoonfessed forgers get off with such sen­ tences. It is almost like saying, it’s naughty to do such things, go and try to do better next time, and the chances are that he will if he ever gets hard up. If he don’t some other fellow will try it. Secretary Rogers is justly indignant at the outcome of the case and the fol­ lowing letters plainly show the posi­ tion he has taken: In reply to Mr. Rogers’ letter asking about the disposition of the case the prosecutor writes as follows: Benton Harbor, Mich., July 31, 1902. In re. People vs. Stanley C. Sterritt. Mr. D. W. Rogers, Hastings, Mich. Dear Sir: I beg to acknowledge your letter of July 29th in regard to the above. Mr. Sterritt pleaded guilty, and the circuit judge allowed him to refund the money back to the different parties, pay up all the costs, and the case would be dismissed. He had enough money to pay part—I think 3175. The court allowed him to go on his own recognizance until the first of October next. In the meantime, he is supposed to raise the balance of the money. This is all there is to the case. Any objections that you may have, you should make known to the circuit judge. I have nothing to do with the matter. My duties are to prosecute, not to sentence. Yours very truly, I. W. Riford. To the above letter Mr. Rogers re­ plied as follows; Hastings, Mich., August 5, 1902. I. W. Riford, Benton Harbor, Mich. Dear Sib: Yours of recent date at hand in regard to the Sterritt case. We consider the manner in which the ' case was disposed of a disgrace to the people of the state of Michigan. We appreciate the fact that you are not to be blamed in the matter, but we wish to ask: Have we no further re­ dress, or has this company got to simply stand back and be imposed upon in this manner? Are we to understand that a forger, & villain and a knave can com­ mit a crime so great and then go free io the county of Berrien? I hope you will inform the judge that the officers and directors of this great company feel very indignant over the course taken Id thia case, and will pass resolutions to that effect at our next meeting. Respectfully yours, D. W. Rogers. Mr. Rogers has received the follow­ ing reply: Benton Harbor, Mich., August6,1902. MB D. W. Rogers, Hastings, Michigan. Dear Sir: I beg to acknowledge ypur letter of" August 5th. I cannot find it consistent with my duties to take this matter up with the circuit judge. Any communication you wish to have conveyed to him you will have to do through some other channel. I ap­ preciate your position and I do not blame you at all.

Personally, Senator McMillan was * hlgbm'.nded gentleman m all there­ lations of life. He was not sordid; he was not petty; he was not mean-spirited. His catholicity extended from his poli­ tics to his religion. He was never a trimmer, and never a time-server. What he did? he did. and It remains to his everlasting credit that he never aU tempted to shirk his responsibility for it, or to saddle the burden upon another. Born under a foreign flag be was an American of Americans in ambition, in sentiment and in spirit. He served his state and his country faithfully, intelligently, honorably and patriotically, and. the fifll record of his achievement gives him a place in Michigan's history net less exalted than that accorded to Cass and Chandler.—Detroit Free Press. His Elements of Greatness. In the sense that great natural abili­ ties, unbounden energy_and mighty success in the acquirement of financial resources and political power are ele­ ments of greatness, Mr. McMillan was enrolled among the great men of his time.

By this circumstance, however, I do not wish to be considered as favoring the Sunday newspaper.

Our [Copyright, 1902. by W. Lu ValLj SINCE the last coronation of ii sovereign of England, sixtyfour; years ago, manners and tastes have undergone , a won­ derful change. While, none of the essential features of {he actual cor­ dnation ceremony can be omitted or changed, the investiture of Kina Ed­ ward VII, with a crown en­ thronement are unlike any similar event In the annals of England. The king­ dom has advanced In wealth, in art and culture, and the coronation Is what may be expected under the highest civ­ ilisation of the twentieth centpry. An event at once formal and magnificent has been the alm of the king. In the royal proclaiflktion announcing the cel ebratlon of the coronation King Edward enjoined upon all who are to doany service io that ceremony to appear “in all respects furnished and appoint­ ed as to so great a solemnity appertatoeth and answerable to the dignities and places which every one of them respec­ tively -holdeth and enjoyeth,.and of tiriff they or any of them are not to fall, as they will answer the contrary at their perils.” King Edward having abandoned that part of the ceremonial which for cen­ turies has taken place In Westminster hall, the center of Interest for the day of coronation is the service In West­ minster Abbey. At the moment the royal pair enter the door the choir greets them with an anthem beginning “I was glad when they said unto me. we will go into the bouse of the Lord.’’ Proceeding through the body of the church, the king and queen kneel In front of the state or coronation chairs, say their private prayers and then take seats in the chairs. The first important ceremony is the so called "recognition’’ of Edward VIL as the lawful monarch of England, /•', seemingly useless performance In view of the fact that he has ruled as king more than a year. But the coronation is a ceremonial, formal, political and religious. When all bnvp taken their places in the Abbey, the archbishop of Canter­ bury makes “the recognition” - of the king four times, presenting In as many directions King Edward as the ‘‘un­ doubted king of the realm." each 0+ maud being greeted with loud acclaim* of ’‘God save King Edward Vll.r* and been said the king and queen, each eflng before the altar, make «epWy th«lr -ffrxt offerer—nxniel*. >)t»r cWb of gold, and th, king «lw laeof of gold, one pound In welgirt. tke ercbbiebop of Cuatertanr !•« in the oblation basin, the pal! gold being laid on tie alter.

Is rendered by the choirs. The crowning of tne queen follows. King Edward receives the old St. Edward's cro^n, enlarged at the rim to fit his bead. ■ When the king has been crowned, the princes of the blood royal and the peers' put on their coronets; the bishops their caps and the kings of arms their crowns. After the king has been (downed the Bible Is placed in bls hand. The "Te Deum" Is sung, and the king is formally enthroned. King Edward’s throne rests upon a platforth covered with the richest cloth of golcLand raised-above the pavement the height of five steps, and Is directly beneath the central tower’(ft,the‘Ab­ bey. At the close of the 'Te Deum” he ascends the platform and Is lifted up into his throne by the archbishop and. bishops and other peers of the realm.

Ln a work on “Membrials of West minster Abbey" the venerable Dean Stanley states that the stone of the coronation chair is very probably the stony pillow on which Columba rested and on which bia dying head was laid In the abbey of Iona, "if so, It belongs,” says the dean, "to the minister of the first authentic coronation of Christen­ dom. the coronation of Aldan by Colum­ ba. A. D. 57 L” Edward I. was crowned upon the stone at Scone when be became king of the Scots. He brought it to Eng­ land, and Dean Stanley declares had the chair made to Inclose it, thus "the fragment of the world old Celtic race was Imbedded in the new Plantagenet oak.” . Only once since the coronation chair and stone were deposited in the chapel of Edward the Confessor have they been removed. That was at the cefemoney of installing Cromwell as lord protector in Westminster ball. At the joint coronation.of William of Orange and Qqeen Mary II. a second corona­ tion chair was made, like the first, with the exception of the supporting lions and the stone. This has since beeu used for the crowning of the consort of the new sovereign. Queen Alexan­ dra, however, will not receive the crown in the chair, but kneeling upon the steps of the altar. Westminster Abbey was founded in the eleventh century by Edward L„ and the English people count it most fortunate that after a lapse of eight centuries a monarch of the same name and lineage should receive the homage of the nation and be crowned king In that historic pile. No similar succes­ sion of events as the crowning of a Hue of kings of over 800 years at the same altar Is recorded of any other building in the -world. The Abbey is officially designated in the proclama­ tions of .coronation as “Our Palace ot Westminster.” The houses of parllaffient are'a!8o~called the~‘TaIace of QUEEN ALEXANDRA.

In fact, the vener­ able and historic sanctuary will be barely recognizable. The south aide of the sacristy Is flanked by the royal box, and from the stage whereon the ceremony Is enacted tiers of galleries ipount toward the roof for the seating of noble guests. During the cermon King Edward and Queen Alexandra will sit in two chairs tn front of the royal box, with officers of state on either, side. The ceremony of anointing and crowning King Edward, however, takes place while he is seated tn BL Edward’s chair, directly in front of tho altar.

For it is in these two beauti­ ful cities that his greatest public labors have been wrought. In Detroit, many industrial enter­ prises and improvements are due to the abilities and public spirit of this adopt­ ed cltizoq who built up his financial success there and left the impress of his personality upon the industrial life of the city. Washington, perhaps even more than Detroit has reasons to remember Senator McMillan with gratitude. As chairman of the senate committee for the District of Columbia, the senator was virtually mayor of Washington. Very much of the attractiveness of our magnificent capital is conceded to be due to Senator McMillan’s managem ent and loyalty to the city's highest wel­ fare. As a statesman it can not be truthfully said that the Michigan senator can be ranked with our greatest men and yet be possessed that valuable quality usually known as common sense in such a degree, his judgment was so reliable and clear that he' was one of the most influential men In the senate. If we turn from Senator McMillan's political standing at Washington to his own relations with bls own party in Michigan, the point of view, it must be confessed,-will throw no additional lustre on his reputation.

Among the many admirable reforms to which the democratic party of Mich­ igan stands pledged by the platform on which Judge Durand is running, that of primary elections is especially timely, and alone would constitute an Issue suf­ ficiently Important to make a campaign upon. The caucus and convention sys­ tem has not proved satisfactory. Even in country districts caucuses are seldom well attended and are controlled by a few men who have little difficulty in carrying through any slate they may have fixed up in advance. But in the cities the caucus has been so basely per­ verted from ite original purpose as to have become a by word and a reproach. As a general thing no one attends a caucus but professional politicians Whose motives are entirely selfish and mercenary. Thus it has come to pass that a system designed to afford the voters a medium by which to express their free choice far candidates has fallen into the hands of designing politicians who use it to accomplish their own ends, even In defianoe of the popular will. The politi­ cal welfare of the state is at the present time endangered by the misuse of the caucus and convention system. It is notorious that the present governor of Michigan expended money lavishly In securing both of his nominations. It is certain that the late republican state convention was manipulated by the Bliss machine in utter disregard of the ' will of the party and that a candidate was foisted upon the party that the rank and file did not want. It is true, on the other hand, that the recent democratic conventions were free from the corrupting influences that dominated the republican conventions. But If the democratic party in Mich­ igan had been in power for many years and was in a majority of eighty thou­ sand voters in the state, would it be possible to keep the same corrupting inMnences out of the democratic party as are today the curse of the republican party? It ta not likely. The boodlers always flock to the party in power. The evils of the canons and convention sys­ tem are inherent and constitutional, not local or partisan. The democratic platform points out, and pledges the party to, the only prac­ ticable way to stop this great evil In our election system when it says "We are in favor of legislation by which primary elections of all parties for the direct nomination of candidates shall be held at the same time and places under the supervision of public officials and regu­ lated by law.,r In other words the democratic party promises if the voters will place it in power, to enact a law which will prescribe one time and place for the voters of all parties to go into a booth, and precisely as they now vote at final elections, indicate upon a gen­ owl ballot their choice for nominees upon the several tickets. Such a sys­ tem win do away with caucuses and nominating conventions and make it impossible for ambitious men with a barrel of money st command to buy their way Into public office.

True, there ia a plank only serve a few weeks, unless the leg­ republican platform that treats islature endorses the governor's selec­ iroposicion In a half hearted and tion. It is reasonable to believe that Gov. Bliss will be governed in this znaL Qect to the conscientious consldera- ter by the question of what course will a of the next legislature.” But, as beat serve his own interests.

Within a few days the price of gaso­ line has advanced in this city from 13 cents to 15 cents a gallon. A Detroit •exchange says that "while the Stand­ ard OU octopus in its efforts to drive a new competitor out -of the field In De­ troit, has reduced the price of gasoline •from 10 cents to 8-cents a gallon, it evidently is losing no money as it has been boosting the price in the Interior towns of the etale to make up for the lees caused in Detroit.” Can aayone .doubt the truth of the statement? urchases overty It is every man’s duty to make his dollar go jnst as far as possible.

GENUINE CASTORIA ALWAYS Bears the Signature of In Use For Over 30 Years. I am a firm believer in concrete and cement floors. They are the best. I have q hoghouse 24 by 32 feet the floor of which is of cement. It is qjuch bet­ ter than . boards, making the house warmer in winter and cooler in sum­ mer. This summer I will make concretq floors in three henhouses. I hired n man to lay the floor In tho hoghouse, but Intend hereafter to do the work myself. My bogbouse floor consists of two feet of stones about six Inches in diameter, three inches of concrete and one inch of cement It doea not need the rock, but I had them and wanted to raise the floor, so they came in nice­ ly. I think I will'lay concrete In the cattle sheds. It will stop the hogs from rooting and make the sheds easy to keep clean.—Everett Lamb In Breeder’s Gazette. REEPINQAmerican hog raisers must still fur­ ther; Improve their stock In the proper­ ties that command the hlgbeBt. prices. The1 hog must be developed In ' the hams and in lean meat throughout the carcass. Waste parts must be de­ creased so that they will dress out bet­ ter. That hogs have been improved as much as any other sort of stock is a palpable fact, and he who sets any limit to possible Improvement is not progressive. The lean pork question has not attracted much attention in this country simply because packers have bad more regard for pounds than quality. But we are growing pork for Europe as well as America, and our product does not bring the best cus­ tomers In the old world. Scandinavia puts before the English consumer the finest bacon in the world, but her hogs do not weigh ns much as ours or car­ ry to the shambles as much grease, which is the least valuable part The packers should act in this matter, for when they will pay more for lean meat than for soap grease the hog men will furnish the bacon bogs.—Farm and Ranch. The Rent Pig. We have heard people say that a runt pig was not worth raising, and it would be better to kill It at birth. This may be true where the litter is a large one, but if the sow has milk euough for it and the others It costs but little to raise it to wearing time. Then take ft from the others that they may not crowd it at toe trough or In the Bleep­ ing quarters and feed It regularly to fatten quickly. It will never eat a very large amount or make a very large bog, but If healthy it will fatten quick­ ly and soon be almost as broad as it la long. The cheapest and beat pork we ever made was a runt-pig that we killed when It weighed a little less than 150 pounds, so fat that be would not stand bp long enough to eat We never heard It squeal foe food.—Ameri­ can Cultivator.

THE AIR LIFT SYSTEM. Supply of Water Increased Without Extra Expense. — ' The air lift system has been installed at the water works Station and it is ex­ pected that a representative of the firm will be here in a few days. A repre­ sentative of the HErald visited the plant Tuesday afternoon, having heard that the supply of water In the well was getting low. Engineer Collins In­ formed us that the evening previous to our visit the water in the well had been below the danger limit, but that they had reduced the amount of air and that tbe supply of.water had been Increased about 500,000 gallons per day, being about the quantity of water consumed. When we arrived at the station there was about fifteen feet of water in the well and U was rising all tbe time. To show us the effect of the air Mr. Collins shut it off and it was only a short time before the water was re­ duced a foot In the well, showing con­ clusively that the consumption of water was beyond the ordinary capacity of the wells. The air was then turned on and the water began to rise in the well. Mr. Collins thinks that when the rep­ resentative of the company comes here he will be able1 to point out some defect in placing the system In and that the flow of water trill be Increased to 1,006,000 gallons per day If required. On being asked what was extra ex­ pense for fuel, Mr. Collins said that he didn’t notice any difference In the amount of coal used, and was of tbe opinion that the cost was only a trifle, if any at all.

A Set of Countefelters Tools and a Die With a New Silver Dollar Found in His Hut. Tom Casey, who has been a terror in his neighborhood in the southern part of the county and has been regarded as & dangerous man bj his neighbors, was arrested last week near Delton by Sheriff Shipman of Kalamazoo county. Casey was wanted for stealing about $85 worth of harnesses and horse net from George Clark’s barn on the Gull lake road near Richland. The arrest is considered an Importr ant one. Farmers have missed large quantities of chickens, and these are said to have been part of Casey’s plun­ der in other raids. For some time there has been talk among the resfdents of the southern, part of the county of organizing a vigilance committee to run the unsavory Casey from the neigh­ borhood. He has served time at Jack­ son and Ionia, and although a man between fifty and sixty years of age is re­ marknbly spry and active. Last Thursday SheMff Shipman drove out along the road, upon which he had a seventy mile chase in order to arrest Casey, and made a thorough search of the hut on the banks of Fair lake in Barry township, where Casey has lived by himself for years. In the afternoon a full set of counterfeiter’s tools was found in tbecabin, and later he obtained possession of the dies with a new silver dollar which had just been coined.

When Mr. and Mrs. Mixer resided in Baltimore, ox teams were all the rage for a number of years and Mr. Mixer always had the best yoke in the country and he was considered one of the best trainers of animals anywhere around. It was his ox team that drew the stone for the foundation of the M. E. church In this city when Rev. O’Dell was the pastor and later when the frame was raised it was bis oxen that raised the large timbers used in the construction of the church, Rev. J. Boynton being the pastor at that time.

Among the mysteries of the present .period is the manner In which statistic­ ian s who furnish tables of losses incur­ red through the coal miners’ strike ar­ rive at their conclusions. The state­ meat that the loss to operators is 830,­ 500,000, and to miners in wages is 114,­ , 000,000; is impreeslve to the person who does not stop to think. There can be , no absolute loss in coal not mined and which remains in the ground. A fair method of computing the loss to opera­ tors would be to add to the expense of* maintaining mines in idleness the loss in freights on the affiliated coal roads, -and then subtract the increased profits 1 on the sale of the large stock of coal wliich the operators seem .to have ac­ cumulated for the emergency. No loud complaint has been heard from the rail­ road men as to cessation of traffic, and it Is probable that the loss'to the opera­ tors is greatly exaggerated. Tbe at­ tempt to reduce strike losses to statistics is an uncertain task. One thing is sure —the householder, who will pay in­ creased prices for coal, will be able to figure bls losses with exactness that can­ not be questioned—Baltimore Herald. Look Pleasant, Please.

Andrews, the Detroit plunger, for wrecking the City Savings bank of Detroit, will be heartily approved by many right-mind­ ed citizens in Michigan, and every sav­ ings bank depositor will certainly ap­ plaud. Andrews was vice president of the bank and taking advantage of his position he used its money for bis own purposes to a degree unparalleled in Michigan history. Speculating wildly in the stock market, the funds which represented tbe rainy-day provision of the thrifty toilers were scattered to the winds. His overdrafts aggregated 8900,­ .000, and with such inroads upon ite re­ sources the bank collapsed. Andrews had the benefit of a fair trial. Every expedient to stave off justice was bis to play to the limit and the ablest lawyers conducted his defense.

Don*t Be Fooledi ROMV MMTM TU �!j AT BRISTOW s| I STATION J by scott Chalmers’o| II o Copyright by T. C. McClure OH ‘ BOOOOOOOOOQOOOOOOOOOOOOOOIJ Bristow Station was In the Panhan­ , die section of Texas, and a more lone­ ly and dreary place It worild be hard to And. There was but one building, which served for freighthouse, passen­ ger depot 'and ticket and telegraph office. Bert Brown, the EL and M. agent, had to do all tbe hOTfo— and cook his own meals over an oil stove. road; but, unless flagged, the two pas­ senger train* went , through Bristow at a fifty mile clip. To the west of the station was a long siding with cattie pens, then a straight track for thirty miles over the prairie. Bert could always count on a visit from three or- four tramps a day, and, though the Instructions from the divi­ sion superintendent were "discour­ age” thevn, he took his own course In the matter. To "discourage” them meant to threaten them with pains and penalties and refuse them even a drink of water. To Bert it looked too much like childish spite, and. though be may have done some growling now and then, be always had a bite to eat and fl bit of tobacco for the "tourist” whose language was res|wctfuL As a matter of fact, there were times when he could, sit down with one of them for an hour and be interested In the 'tramp's adventures by flood and field If Bert did not obey hla instructions to the letter, the section Loss on that section did. He was a burly big fel­ low, regarded by bis employers as a bully and a coward. Knowing that he had the- law on bls side, be fairly went bunting for tramps. If one was found track walking, he received such a thumping that he could hardly crawl off to a highway, and no freight train with a hobo on the bumpers could pass the Hush that his sharp eyes would not detect the culprit. FerbnjiH it was this man's fierce enmity toward cramps that softened Bert’s heart. Agent and boss had never had a word on the subject, however, until one summer afternoon he happened along with bls car and hla gang just as a tramp had reached the station and was resting In the shade. Bert had not seen the fellow as yet when he heard n row outside. Tbe section boss bad spied the hobo and stopped to give him n drubbing. The tramp was a man about thirty, and It needed W&i ^SS. THE noon. only one glance at his face to prove that he was not born to the road. He had an intelligent eye, and bls speech ,was that of an educated man. The section boss was already slam­ . ■ . ming him around when Bert Inter­ fered. Aa the big brute' let go of bls .victim be gave him a whirl and brought him down on the iron rail. The hobo lay there until Bert assisted him to rise. He complained of a pain In his side, but after resting for awhile , it seemed to pass off. The story he told Was not new to tbe agent Born of good parents and with a- good start in life, drink and a spirit of adventure had- been his bane. He did not men­ tion what occupation be had followed, and Bert in his genial, thoughtful way, refrained from exhibiting too much curiosity. After accepting lunch, a bracer of whisky and a few coins he left the station and continued west­ ward.

They examined him very minute­ ly and commented upon him quite free­ ly. The painter was annoyed and de­ termined to put an end to the persecu­ tion. As the train passed through tbe tunnel of St Cloud the three travelers were wrapped in complete darkness. Vernet raised tbe back of his band to his mouth and kjssed it twice violent­ ly. On emerging from tbe obscurity he found that the ladles had withdrawn their attention from him and were glar­ ing contemptuously at xeach other. Presently they arrived at Paris, and Vernet, on leaving them, said, “Ladies, I shall be puzzled all my life by the in­ quiry, Which of these two ladles was it that kissed me?’ White ostrich feathers can be cleaned by making a mixture of white soap shaved Into small pieces, boiling water and a little soda. .After this has dis­ solved and'cooled dip the feathers Into it and then draw them gently through the hand, repeating the operation sev­ eral t|mes.

In effect, the offdnse here is a larceny, coupled with a breach uf con­ fidence and trust, and a violation of the obligation of one's oath. “In effect, this transaction Is nn ag­ gregation of IftrvenleR, for. while this money wna taken from the bank only.

The age qf the respondent is 81. There was absolutely no outward manifestation of feeling on the part of the prisoner. The remarkable self­ possession which has been ho charac­ teristic of him during the long trial did not desert him.

Dated, Hasting*. Michigan. Aucrunt Sth, 19U2. THOMAS BVLL.VAX, ' • Chairman GbokosW. Aubky, The Verdict in the Andrews Case. The conviction of Frank C. Andrews on the charge of misappropriating the ’ . funds of the City.Savings bank of De­ C troit, will certainly surprise no one. There was no doubt in the mind of any person familiar with the facts that An­ drews was a bank-wrecker. Enough had been admitted in advance to show that he had overdrawn his account up­ wards of a million dollars and had so . tampered with the books of the bank as to keep its president in ignorance of his transactions. But it remained to be seen whether the best legal talent which money could command would succe&d in extricating such a bold plunder­ er from the bands of justice. There was a possibility that he might escape through some legal technicality that might be skillfully urged in his behalf. But after one of the most able de­ fenses in tbe history of Michigan crim­ inal trials, a jury has declared Frank C. Andrews guilty. There ought not to be any disposition to gloat , over the downfall of this man. Looked at from the personal standpoint there is occas­ ion for sorrow and pity. A man of high standing and great Influence cannot thus fall without bringing humiliation and heart suffering upon his innocent family and friends and deeper abase­ ment and suffering upon himself. Tbe contemplation of such a tragedy ought not to lead to exultatlod. 1 But from the point of public welfare, 5*^ .the conviction of Andrews must be re­ f ‘ garded with satisfaction. Such men as ' he are pernicious foes to public honor k’ and business prosperity. They shake the faith of men in fiduciary Institu­ tions, «moh as banks, insurance com­ panies, trust companies, and the like, thereby doing a serious injury to busi­ ness and to society. Whenever a bank is wrecked or its trust fusds are tarn­ . pared with a great wrong is done toso& ciety and to those vital institutions on which society rests. Punishmentought. 'therefore to be promptly visited upon such enemies of society, not so much for .thecriminal’s sake as for the protection of society. The Issue Cannot Be Ignored. ■ . . The democratic • party of Barry . county, like the democratic party in several near-by states, seems to have forgotten that there ever was such a ’ thing as the “silver question.” It Rb wasn’t even mentioned in the resolu­ tions of the last democratic county con­ i' -vention.—Banner. ! What a terrible indictment that is ■' against the democratic party of Barry ■■ county! The democratic county con­ . - vention of 1902 failed to say a word about the issue of 1896, an issue that no • one at the present time is interested in. Did our contemporary imagine that the democrats of Barry-county were going . to revive a question that was settled in [' 1896 and Ignore the vital, pressing Issue • of the hour? Did it suppose that the democratic resolutions st the recent s convention woul 1 discuss the greenback f question, or slavery, of state rights or B the Missouri Compromise, or Lhe divine FI right of kings, or the flood? No. the democrats of Barry county prefer to look to the present and the E future when putting forth their, declai rations; to denounce those evils that P, .are susceptible of correction in the g present campaign, evils which the Banf nsr itself, before the late republican ■t convention put a muzzle upon iu utter■■ annex, denounced and condemned not C vigorously than the democratic F «maiy convention condemned them. Watteraon’s Chance. I Henry Watterson, the taletfted an* picturesque editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal, is out in a letter de­ clining to be considered aoandidate for the governorship of bis state. The rea­ sons which he gives for refusing to en­ ter the race are unique. He says that the successful candidate for office must meet conditions which are to him ap­ palling, “the rogues and cheats he must court or oaten, the servility he must ef­ fect or practice, the obligations incur, the personal solicitation, Ignoble and hu mi Hating, tbe use of money more or leas corrupt and corrupting, for, though he have an overwhelming majority of the people at his back, there stands the machine first to be captured and then to be deployed, with all that this im­ plies.” And so the valiant Kentucky journal­ ist and orator, decides that he will not allow himself to be drawn into such an unholy predicament. Hedeclares he is “tooold to turd rascal.” That is to say, he regards the highest office in the gift of his state the sport of rascals, and not to be held except tnrough dishonorable means! What a commentary on his I own state! What a confession of weak­ ness on his part! If the governorship of a great state, like Kentucky or Michigan, has fallen into unworthy hands why does not such a high minded man as Watterson feel it to be his duty to accept a nomination, make a canvass on the issue of stace political reform, and show tbe world that Kentucky knows how to govern herself Honestly and honorably? That is just the position that Judge Durand is taking in Michigan and be certainly will not need to turn rascal if be is elected. Rather he will turn the ras­ cals out, and that ’s just what Colonel Watterson ought to do in Kentucky, provided of course, the situation down there is half as bad as he haspaintejj it. The United States of Europe. A German professor of political economy has published an article in which he urges a political union be­ tween Germany, Austria, Switzerland Belgium and Holland. He points out the great financial advantage it would be to these comparatively small coun­ tries in their strtggle against the in­ dustrial ascendancy, of the United States, to have free trade between themselves. ' Undoubtedly the professor’s reason­ ing is sound. The United States of America • could never have attained their present enormous wealth and in­ dustrial predominance if they had been permitted by the constitution to erect tariff barriers against each other, The absolute freedom of trade that exists between these states with their seventyfive millions of people is tbe secret of America’s wonderful development; and the same political union between European states, if such union were feasible, would wonderfully increase their commercial ability likewise. There would, however, be serious ob­ stacles in the way of such a union of European states. Race prejudices and national dislikes and distrusts would have to be overcome. But the time may not be far distant when the necessity of concerted action against tbe inroads of-American, British and Russian commerce may overcome all obstacles and produce a United States of Europe. It is certain that tbe tre­ mendous struggle for industrial su­ premacy now being waged by the great nation^ is working mighty changes in tbe political conditions of the world, especially in the relations of the Euro­ pean governments to each other. The Issue *>s Just the Same. While-the death of Senator McMil­ lan will complicate the state campaign somewhat it will not materially affect the issue. Tbe people of Michigan are called upon to decide for or against the present republican machine. That ma­ chine baa been built up by the late senator and his friends,.and of late has been run practically by the senator’s •on, who it likely to succeed his father at Washington. That machine baa lately placed in nomination for govern­ or a man whom the people did not want and it Is now beihg manipulated in favor of his re-election. Whoever may be chosen senator the republican machine will keep right on grinding and Blisaism will still con­ front the voters. The real issue will still have to be fought out—incom­ petency, extravagance, subserviency to corporations, ripperism on the one side —economy, ability, integrity, reform of abuses, justice to all classes and favor­ itism to none, on the other. The issue will still be Bliss or Durand. BrMlda* a Will. A wealthy woman named Silva died at Lisbon and left her entire property to a rooster.

How the British troops passed on to Concord and precipi­ tately returned is known of all, and like Revere’s ride, has been worthily recorded in verse. It was war; and when its smoke had cleared away the parties that had suspected and watched each other as neighbors became enemies with no neutral grounds. Revere, took up his residence in Charles­ town, and from that point set about managing his affairs in Boston. A few weeks later, when passes could be procured, his wife and family joined him on the other side of the Charles River. More rides to New York and Philadelphia were required of Revere, but occupation more to his taste was offered the following year, alter the British, harrassed by Washington, had evacuated Boston. The departing troops had endeavored to disable the cannon at Castle William, now Fort Independence, and at the request of General Washington, Revert- undertook to repair them. He succeeded by inventing a new form of carriage, rend red neces­ sary by the fact that the trunnions had been broken from the guns. Shortly after this (in July) a reg­ iment was raised for the defence of town and harbor, and Revere was commissioned Major. In November of the same year he was commissioned Lieutenant­ Colonel of a regiment of State Artillery, in which office he per­ formed many important duties, including the transference from Worcester to Boston, in August, 1777, of a body of several hun­ dred prisoners captured at Ben­ nington by Colonel Stark. He took part also with his regiment, in the first campaign in Rhode Island, and was several times in command at Castle William, inci­ dentally presiding at many courts-martial. His services in defence of Boston Harbor were onerous and marked by priva­ tions and discontent among his men,-but he steadfastly fulfilled his duties and endeavored to make the best of the situation despite the advflfrse conditions.

In Buglaud, during the reign of Henry VIII., tbe public mlud became greatly excited through several cases of poisoning, and parliament enacted a law making boiling to death tbe pen­ alty. This law was on the statute books alKiut sixteen years. It was made retroactive, so as tu take in a case that chiefly prompted Its enact­ ment—Chat of Richard Rosso, otherwise Coke, the bishop of Rochester’s cook, who poisoned seventeen persons, two of whom jUed. Coke was boiled at Roch­ ester. The Infliction was attended with peculiar cruelty, as Coke was put into a cauldron of cold water and gradually cooked to death. A few years later, in March, 1542. a young woman named Margaret Davy was punished in a similar way on con­ viction of poisoning. ‘‘The public were not satisfied ns to her guilt, and, not­ withstanding the comparatively slow travel of news in those days, the story of Margaret Davy's trial and punish­ ment soon spread through the king­ dom and aroused universal horror. Bolling to death remained od the stat­ ute books, however, as long as Henry reigned, perhaps because the monarch’ himself had a dread of being polsontsL Immediately after his death parlia­ ment repealed tbe law.

MERRITT & A Dt**ppointed Kentuckian. At the time when John G. Carlisle was senator from Kentucky »hls speeches were widely printed and at­ tracted a great deal of attention. One day when thp senate was in session a mountaineer trom the wildest wilds of Kentucky presented himself at the door and asked to see Senator Carlisle. The visitor wore homespun and leather boots and was travel stained and dus­ ty. He explained that he had read Mr. Carlisle's speeches and considered them great, aud had walked more than a hundred miles In order to see the senator from his state. Mr. Carlisle was busy at the time, and the clerk In­ formed the visitor that be could not be disturbed. The farmer looked disap­ pointed and seemed reluctant to de­ part FlnhUy he asked if be might be taken where he could just catch a glimpse of the great man be had walked so far to see. The request was grant­ ed, and Mr. Carlisle was pointed out to him. After a brief scrutiny the farmer turned to the attendant: “Beads a heap better*n be looks," be remarked senteutiously, and prepared to walk back home.—New York Times. TelUn< * Sorae** Age br Wrinkle*. "The popular Idea that the age of a horse can always be told by looking at his teeth,” said .a veterinary surgeon, "is not entirely correct. After the eighth year the horse has no more new teeth, «o that the tooth method Is use­ less for telling the age of a horse which is more than eight years old. As soon as the set of teeth Is complete, however, a wrinkle begins to appear on the upper edge of the lower eyelid, and a new wrinkle Is added each year, bo that to get at the age of a horse more than eight years old you must figure the teeth plus the wrinkles.” GOODYEAR BR05 HEADQUARTERS FOR AMERICAN FIELD AND HOC FENCE Special Hof, Horae and Cattle Style Made of large, strong, high-grade steel wires, heavily galvanisedAmply provides for expansion and contraction.

The Wallace shows given last Thurs­ day wfire in most respects very credit­ able exhibitions. Though not as large as the monstrous Barnum & Bailey or Forepaugh aggregations, they never­ theless have plenty of good features. Everything in (act. on the program was well done, and tbe employes appeared to be a quiet, well-behaved and courteous lot of people. The "manager!e was not large but well kept and well managed and the circus presented many new and excellent displays. There is one thing however, which the management will have to do if it wishes to build up and hold a high reputation. It must rid itself of the gang of thieves, pick­ pockets, till tappers and confidence men that are now following it and mak­ ing its visitation to a town more of an affliction than a festive occasion. Arthur Fraker, son of Harry Fraker of this city, met with a serious accident at Kalamazoo last Wednesday. He was delivering goods for a grocery firm on a bicycle and started out with a load,' consisting of a half bushbl of potatoes, a peck of apples, two pounds of butter, two dozen eggs and several other arti­ cles. In crossing a street car track tbe wheel slipped and th'rew him directly under the wheels of a big circus wagon of the Wallace show, that was passing. Luckily the ponderous wagon was stop­ toed without the wheel’s passing over bis body although it struck Kim and badly injured his hip. He was take Ao Ills brother Bert’s residence and his ineries attended to. He will be laid up r some time but it is lucky he was not crushed to death. A remarkable thing about the accident was that only seven eggs out of the 24 were broken. WE HAVE A s= ------ -OUR-------- .

Raising tbe left arm high as you can will relieve choking much more rap idly than by being thumped on thp back. And It la well that every one should know it, for often a person gets choked while eating when there is no one pear to thump him. Very fre­ quently children get choked while eat­ ing. and the' customary manner of re­ lieving them la to slap them sharply on the back. The effect of thia Is to set the obstruction free, so that it can be swallowed. Tbe same thing can be brought about by raising the left hand of the child aa high as possible, and the relief comes much more rapid ly. In happenings of this kind there should be uo alarm manifested, for If a child sees that older .jeraons or par­ ents get excited It is very* liable to get so also. The i>est thing is to tell the child to raise its left arm. and im­ mediately the difficulty la overcome.'

"What’s the matter, Jack?" called Bayne languidly. Irving snapped the spring of the bag cautiously, replaced it. with Its silken ribbon, in thedrawer and replied calm­ ly: "Nothing. Why?" "Thought I beard you groan,’’ said Bayne, appearing at the bedroom door. "Didn't know but you might have put your hand down on a thumb tack.” Irving was standing by the mantel. His manner would have been perfect except that It was much too quiet for him-• “There isn’t anything the matter with me," be said. Bayne was about to reply when be .was, interrupted by a shrill whistle. He crossed to the'speaking tube which communicated with the office. “Welir said he. "Who? Oh, yes.

Irving put his own nand up to restrain her. and they were In this posture when the door suddenly opened and Bayne entered. Naturally they sprang apart. Bayne closed the door and leaned against It, breathing hard. He touched hls forehead, as one who is confused. "If an angel had come down and told me this,” he muttered, "I would “Who Is this M-lss Colby?" demanded Grace. "But. of course, It’s none of my business, and I really haven’t the slightest curiosity.

Happy the rose grower wfco gather* roses unmarred by worm and blightu with foliage perfect in form and color,, but with the June roses this is almoot an impossibility. Rose bugs, slugs and caterpillars, rose thrips, blight and mil­ dew, conspire to make the life of tbe rose grower one of ceaseless activity and constant vigilance. > The simplest all around preventive measure, says the Pilgrim, lies in free­ ly pruning and thinning the branches, of the plant, that the air and sunshine may have free access to every part of the bush, and the application of water (rom hose and syringe with sufficient force to dislodge any insects that may infest the plant, care being taken to reach every part of the plant, especial­ ly the underside of the leaves. £ The small green worms which draw the leaves together with a slight net cannot be removed Ln this way, the most effective method of destroying them being to go over the bushes, pinching the Laves between the thumb and finger, or, more agreeably, with i spring clothespin. The spiraea, too,* will need this attention. In some vari­ eties, as the blllardi, the leaves on the lips of the branches will be found' drawn together over the blossom buds and the buds completely destroyed. In. varieties giving but a single crop of flowers during the summer this is quite a serious matter and should have prompt attention. 4 For the destruction of rose bugs showering the plants with the parts green solution is the most effectual* remedy, using one teaspoonfuUto four, gallons of water. It must be used promptly, as these are of all rose pests the most unsightly and destructive, eating the full blown roses and quickly, destroying the blossoms of an ‘entire bed. If you have an utilizer, half fill it with a 40 per cent solution of formal­ dehyde. Stand the books upright on the end wide ppen, with the leaves sep­ arated as much as possible, and spray thoroughly with formaldehyde. If the binding Is very delicate and likely to be Injured by the moisture, procure a tight tin box large enough to hold the book and a saucer filled with formalde­ hyde. Stand tbe book upright, as de­ scribed, and close the box, leaving It for an hour at least, says the Ladles' Home Journal. It Is said that one cu­ bic centimeter of formaldehyde to 300 centimeters of space will thoroughly disinfect any book In fifteen minutes. How to Stop .Nosebleed.

Many anecdotes are related showing Judge Durand’s friendship for the late supreme judge, Charles D. Long, at one time a member of the law firm of Howard, Long & Gold. It was the, same Judge Howard, who, as United। States district attorney for Utah, brought about the conviction of John, D. Lee, the polygamist. Afterward Judge Howard was chief justice of Ari­, zona. After Judge Howard's death! Durand was nosing in an old day book. of Howard, Long & Gold, and on onej page was entered in the handwriting, of Judge Howard the following charac­ teristic words: “Louis Cornwall camej in and paid 830. I kept my ten, gave, Long bis ten. and also gave Long ten, for Gold. God help Gold.” , ONE ON THE JUDGE. The story always pleased Judge Long, very much and he used to answer Judge’ Durand by the following, said to be ak veracious anecdote: W. G. Durant, the wealthy carriagej manufacturer, has a beautiful little3 daughter. At the time when Judge) Durand was on the supreme bench the3 golden-haired child, who was happy ini the company of the judge, was visitingf her aunt, Mrs. Charles Downey, of Lan­sing, and was stopping at the Downey• house, where the judge happened to spyr her out one day after dinner. Judges Long was also present. Little Marjorie3 was delighted with Judge Durand andl ran over to see him. After dinner• Judge Durand said to Mr. Downey,, “Charlie, here's 50 cents; eend out for• some flowers for Marjorie.” Mr.. Downey called a bell-boy and repeated1 the order. The boy did not fully under-Rtand his instructions, yet did not dares to ask Mr. Downey to have the message3 repeated, so he ran down the street, 1 overtaking the supreme court judges on1 their way to the capitol.

The democrats of Barry county in convention assembled did a good day’s work yesterday. The gathering was harmonious and, while neither noisy nor exciting, was •haracterized by a spirit of quiet interest and earnestness that counts for more than mere noise. The dominant motive seemed to be to put up a strong ticket, one that would appeal to the voters of the county, and the result was certainly satisfactory. The convention, which met in the city hall, was called to order at eleven o’clock by County Chairman Sullivan. Charles Brown of Rutland was made temporary chairman, George Abbey of Hastings 'secretary and Jaa. Young of Yankee Springs and E. J. Feighner of Nashville tellers. The following com­ mittees were appointed: On Permanent Organization and Order of Business—Wm. Lindsey. Thomas Kelley, Daniel Murray. Credentials— Omar Shaw, Daniel Klingensmith, M. W. Riker. Resolutions—H. F. Peckham, John Dawson, Dr. J. M. Elliott. The convention then adjourned until one o’clock. On reassembling the committee on permanent organization and order of business reported, recommending that the temporary officers be made per­ manent and reporting on order of business. The report was adopted. The committee on resolutions made the following report which was unanimously adopted: . The democratic voters of Barry county in convention assembled con­ gratulate the democracy of Michigan on the splendid work done at the recent state convention in Detroit. That body uncontrolled by bosses, inspired With a lofty purpose, adopted a declaration of principles that appeals to every patriotic citizen, and nominated a ticket that deserves the support of every right thinking voter in the state. The shameful corruption which prevails in state politics, the high handed manner in which the late republican convention rode rough shod over the wishes of the party which it pretended to represent, placing in nomination a man whese two years’ record has proved his incompetency and weuk submission to the wHI of designing politicians, created an emergency in our state history that called for soundjudgment and pa­ triotic deliberation. Kight worthily did the democratic party rise to the duty of the hour. There is not a word in the state platform that we would have erased; there is not a name on the state ticket for whom a word of apology will have to be uttered. In view of these undeniable facts we n it only look with confidence for the entbusiastic support of Judge Durand aud his compeers on the state ticket, by every democrat in Barry county, but we earnestly invite every republican in the county who places good govern­ ment above party success, and who pre­ fers an able and honest administration of state affaire to machine rule, to unite with us In freeing our beloved state of political rottenness, 'ringism and rip­ per ism. We likewise appeal with confidence to the electorate of this county to approve by their votes the nominees of this convention for county offices and for representative in the state leglslatiire. H.

The solution of the senatorial propo­ sition is one that might well be left in better hands than those of the present governor of Michigan. This state haa had at times men m caliber, and men who were in fact as in name heads of the commonwealth. Unfortunately, such is not now the case, and fears are entertained thc.t a gross blunder may be perpetrated. It is not to be con­ ceived that the governor will be permit­ ted by his managers to name a successor to the late Senator McMillan, until at least after the November elections.

This result is the effect of the action of radiated heat on the nerve* con­ trolling the small blood vessels of the skin. Those tiny vessels are normally In a state of moderate contraction. Under exposure to heat they relax and become distended with blood. The same process, under the mysterious connection of the vasomotor nerve sys­ tem with mental impressions, produces ordinary blushing. In regard to ex­ posure to direct beat the reddening of the akin, together with the uncomfort­ ably warm feeling accompanying it, may be looked upon a* one of the use­ ful little “danger signals” with which we are surrounded. Persons Who from any cause have lost their susceptibility, as is the case In some forms of paralysis, may ex­ pose a limb to best until serious in­ jury results. The reason that the face chiefly flushes is that, in the ordinary position near a fire, it is most directly exposed to. the rays of heat, while most of the body is shielded by cloth­ ing; that the nerves of the face are particularly sensitive In this respect and that the skin there is more abun­ dantly furnished with blood vessels.

A friend of the poet asked the barber one day if he wa* busy. “I hardly know which way to turn.” was the reply. “We have to dress the hair of thirty ladies for soirees and balls." And M. Brassier showed the list to his friend- A few days after the friend returned and in­ quired about the thirty ladles. "Ah, monsieur," said the barber sadly, "I was not able to attend half the num­ ber, and I have lost many good cus­ tomers through M. Victor Hugo." It appears that the poet when about to be shaved was suddenly inspired and seized the first piece of paper he could find to write q poem. Hugo hastily left the shop with his unfinished verses, on the back of which were the names and addresses of the thirty ladles, many of whom waited in vain for their coiffeur. THE EVENING NEWS AS.

In calling attention to th© desirability al electing a democratic legislature aa wall a* democratic state officers Chair­ man Whiting has acted wisely. This is a matter that ought to be Impressed upon the voters of the state. For it is necessary that the law-making branch of the government be in harmony with the executive in order that any sub­ stantial reforms may be effected. A hostile legislature might thwart every effort of the governor to bring about the important remedial legislation which he should advise. Hence it follows that if the people of Michigan are in earnest in their desire for a primary election law, for taxation reform, for establishing legal safe­ guards against ripperism. for the adop­ tion of the principle of the initiative and the referendum, they must see to it that a legislature is chosen that will be in sympathy with these propositions. The election of Judge Durand and of a legislature in accord with the splen­ did platform on which he was nomi­ nated will mean the overthrow of detnagogism, ringism, and jobbery: of in­ competency aud spinelessness in the executive department, and extrava­ gance, and ringism in* the legislature. It will mean the complete emancipation of this great and intelligent state of ours from the control of a disgraceful clique of politicians—the smashing of machine rule and the re-assertion of the people’s right to govern themselves. Such a victory is worth striving for, it is worth the sacrifice of partisan feel- i Ing for once and the working together of all the friends of good government, republicans and democrats alike, for its accomplishment. But it cannot be full and effective unless it includes the election of a reform legislature as well us a reform governor.

The managers of the Nelson department store, wpich lay on John’s route, claimed that their mall bad been systematically roblnxl of money orders and cash sent loose In letters. Before lodging any complaint they had con­ ducted a ama’J detective campaign of the<r own. Twenty letters containing money had been sent to as many places to be forwarded to the concern. Only fifteen came to UghL It could not be argued that the missing five had been Jost in the malls. The Nelson people pointed the finger of suspicion ut old John. John had gained whije hair ami hon­ or in the postal service. During the firat te'n years of his work there was not a single mark against him. Ln the second term there was just one—be had been marked “late" because of the illness of his daughter. Rugby was detailed on the case and prepared ten decoy letters inclosing marked money. He took them to va­ rious points within a few miles of the city and had them directed by strange hands. He saw them arrive in the postofllce, saw them placed in the old man’f pouch, saw him start out with them. Then he followed the old car­ rier with a feeling almost self con­ demnatory. ' Afte^ covering half of his route Compton stopped for ten ihlnutes at his own home, which was in a flat­ house. He came out whistling and went on his way. Rugby was seated' In a dim nook of the Nelson office when Compton reached the little win­ dow and banded over the mall. In­ stantly be counted the decoy letters. Only six of the ten had beer delivered. These were the facts that Inspector Smith was reviewing as he sat in the dull twilight When Rugby and Comp­ ton entered Smith’s office there was a look of wonder in the old man’s eyes, but no trace of guilt or anxiety. When told of the charge, he smiled almost childishly. When ordered to empty hl* pockets, he complied without the least hesitation, yet of the *12 he laid on the table no less than *10 was in the marked money. When this was pointed out to him, his confiding smile vanished, and be turned pale as he •aid: “Why, I got this money only two hours ago. I gave a ten dollar bill Id exchange.” “Then of course you can name the party and dear yourself?’ asked Smith kindly. There he stopped. A queer change came over his face.

"I know the penalty, yes—prison. It’s useless to have any trial. I will plead guilty. The *bm fuss there’s over It ’ the castor it will be for—for—others.’’, HI* folce broke on the last word. The Inspectors Instantly suspected that be was ihielding the real culprit. Smith acted quickly. He laid hl* band cor­ dially dp Compton’* shoulder. “Bee “here, Compton; we can’t be­ lieve this of’ypu. It’s our duty to place you under immediate arrest, but we’re going jto give you another chance. ’ We’re going to investigate further, and we ask only your word that yOu won’t jump the town?’ " • . The old man seemed terror stricken. He avowed UIb gu.lt In piteous tones and begged to be arrested, but Smith and Rugby were flrui him! sent him from their presence a tottering, sob­ bing mau. For the next few days, while John went over yhin rpute like one in a dream, Rugby investigated the life of the okl carrier’s daughter. He quickly discovered that she dressed far above her station and Income and Indulged in several expensive vices. Marked bills were traced directly to her. and when taxed by Rugby she broke down and confessed. Every morning when her father stepped into the kitchen for the cup of coffee which seemed to strength­ en him during the remainder of his route she bad rifled the mall bag as it bung on the entry ruck. Rugby and his chief realised that the disgrace of th*1 daughter would be as fatal '□ the old man hr bls own arrest, and for once they failed in their official duty.

Old John, who had been simply told that the real culprit had been discov­ ert <1. lived on the letters he received from L>enver.

Generally speaking, the Chinaman Is able to sleep anywhere. None of the trifling disturbances which drive us to despair annoys him.

The duty of abhorring evil is one that is general in its nature. It admits of no exception of favored vices. We are very liable to excuse the sins which we “are inclined to" while roundly con­ demning those we "have no mind to." It iff one of the weaknesses of poor hu­ man nature that if a sin is agreeable to us we discover or invent excuses for it It Is not so bad as some other aiua; indeed, in our case, It is not certain that It is a sin at all. We have a cer­ tain right to do what we would blame others for doing or we even say to our­ selves that it la merely conventional wrong, but is tn fact no real wrong. Whatever is wrong without exception in our own favor we ought to cultivate the grace of abhorring it, for we may be certain that if we allow ourselves an easy sentiment of allowance for any sin we have taken down the bars to its commission and one sin being made easy opens the way to another and another until the conscience is seared as with a hot iron.—Pittsburg Press. “Ke don’t waat to believe it.” was the reply, "but letters have been stol­ en, hud you have tbye money that was Gerald—I am afraid I shall forget Inclosed in them.'* some parts of the marriage service. “And yet I am as Innocent as either ■& �•. ■■■ ■ — ThatLawaia* Barrlar. “Ij Heid! 3j Bad!” qadai direction, tor Home treatment state Encampment (which he advired), and the reaolt waa r ■ wonderful.

Last week was the time to which the old soldiers of Barry county had been looking forward with pleasant antialpations for many months. It wm the one week of all the year when-the boys of *61-5 get together in annual encamp­ ment, gather around the camp fire and swap stories of those stormy days of i civil war—stories which the grizzled veterans never tire in telling and which are embellished with new details and added features every time they are re­ counted. » * Seventy tents were erected on the fair grounds for the accommodation of the soldiers and their families who cared to Uve, as fully as possible, the old soldier life of war times. Only the rations of their present encampment ■were very different from what the boys had to eat when they were at the front with the Johnnies Ln uncomfortable proximity. The eighth annual encampment and picnic of the Barry county soldiers and sailors and L. L. P. association was car­ ried out in general as was previously outlined In the Herald. There were ■some breaks in the program, it is true, owing to the failure of speakers to be present. But after all, there was plenty of good talking and reciting, in­ terlarded with good music—all prob­ ably that the boys eared to listen to, with the amount of visiting they had on hand, and which, as a matter of fact, they were more interested in than in any speech, however eloquent. The Herald will not attempt to re­ port the speeches and other features of the three days’ gathering in detail. To do so would take more time and space than we could spare. We must content ourselves, therefore, with a mere men­ tion of the leading features of the three Addresses were made by Thos. Sulli­ van, Father Connors, Rev. H. H. VanAuken, of this city; V. P. Falls of Way­ land', Warren Hecox of Nashville. A. W. Dlllenbeck of Woodland, Congress­ man Gardner of Albion, Chas. E. Belk­ nap of Grand Rapids, W. W. Wedemeyfir of Ann Arbor. Recitations were given by Miss Jnelah. Engelhardt, Miss Maud Carter, Mias Nellie Stebbins, Miss Adda Slawson and Miss Florence Diamond; and readings by Mrs. A. D. Maynard and Miss Slingerland. : . The Hastings new band furnished in­ spiring band music ted the Hastings male quartet, comprised of Frank Hor­ ton, J. C. Ketcham, Dr. Wilkinson and Norton Paton, added to the enjoyment of Thursday afternoon and evening ses­ sions. Besides these there were solos and duets by Miss Letta Garn, Dr. F. H. Wilkinson, Mrs. Robt. Burch, Miss Pearl Michael, Miss Inez McIntyre, Wm. Shulters, Messrs. Barnaby and Horton, Mias Myrtle Silsbee, the Misses Etta and Mildred Paton, Mrs. Frank Hams and C. G.

The melodrama “Tide of Life” was presented Monday evening at the opera house to a fair sized audience. The company was highly recommended to J. L.

The dark blue color so long associated with our army is to give place In service dress to olive green, with bat and leggings to match. Our soldiers therefore cannot much longer be designated as “boys in blue.” All the allusious of song and story which cluster round the distinctive col­ ors worn by the-contending armies of a generation ago will begin to be ob­ solete. The development of the range of tbe modern rifle Is chiefly responsible for an awakened perception ^f the value of an inconspicuous field garb. When guns were dangerous at short distances only, the color of uniforms made little difference in their effectiveness as tar­ gets. The red coats of the British, long ago abandoned in actual field service, were not particularly danger­ ous to the wearers, although no color is more conspicuous than red. The now color was adopted after a series of tests under conditions al­ most ns varied as those in which the soldier fights. Since he cannot change his clothes to match different back­ grounds, a color is necessary which harmonizes with that of the landscai>e. The prevalence of grass and foliage suggested a considerable dash of green, and gravel roads and the earth colors of the dry season call for an admix­ ture of brown. Then the sky tints could not be disregarded. It is notable that modern man tn his preparation for actual combat merely goes back to nature, which clothes the birds of the woods so often Ln tbe hues of their surroundings, even giv­ ing to some birds n white plumage for the season of snow and a coat of dark brown In ttfe midsummer Egg­ ' shells frequently reveal a like mar­ | velous coloring. , The place which blue bus occupied with al) our changing styles of mil­ itary garments since the Revolution as well as in the uniforms of civil life and those of other armies of ths world emphasizes the fact that although it has become a dangerous target at mod­ ern range it possesses as a clothing color many substantial merits.

These are all signed by the proprietor of the Islands and are apparently regarded as legal tender. The retailing of popcorn doesn’t look like an especially dignified or promis­ ing commercial enterprise, but that there is big money In popcorn it you can only sell enough of it is proved by the experience of the Humphrey fam> ily of Cleveland. In 1831 the Hum­ phreys, four of them, were worth $25,­ 000 less than nothing. They managed to secure the small capital necessary to start them Ln the popcorn business on a hand basket basis. At first they didn’t sell much popcorn, but they managed to keep alive and stuck to popcorn. Today they are worth some­ thing like a million dollars, all made out of popcorn.—Detroit Free Press.

The democrats of Barry county will have a chance this fall to vote for an exceptionally good county and legisla­ tive ticket. There is not a man on tbe ticket who is not well qualified and de­ serving of support. Sheriff Andrew G. Cortrlght has made an admirable official during the past two years and is deservedly popu­ lar. His renominatlon was his due and his re-election will follow. Two years ago Fred W. Walker made an excellent run for prosecuting attor­ ney and his second nomination for that office was a just tribute to his worth. He is a rising young attorney, who will bring to the office ability and loyalty to tbe interests of Barry county. Walter Pike of Orangeville is a young man of excellent reputation and is well qualified for the duties of county clerk. His popularity in the southern part of the county where he is known was at­ tested by the warm support which he received in the convention. R, A. Brooks of Nashville, nominee । for county treasurer, is too well known throughout the county to require any ' special encomiums. He is a man of /. integrity and ability and thecouqty’s finances will be faithfully administered in his hands. < . For circuit court commissioners two capable attorneys of this city have been nominated: J. B. Sweezey and Chaun. cey Bishop and Dre. McIntyre of Wood­ land and McLay of Prairieville are - certainly qualified for the duties of | . coroner. gLJ With men so admirably fitted to ft aerve the people of Barry county in the I several offices to which they have been fc- nominated, the democracy of Barry . county can go forward with confidence and enthusiasm in the coming cam„ peign with bright hopes of victory in November.

There can be no doubt that the strike in the anthracite cdtal region is ap­ proaching an acute stage/ Something must be done very soon to settle the dispute or distress of serious nature wl 11 overtake the miners and disaster come to the country. The tremendous in­ dustrial activity of this country cannot be long continued unless the coal mines are operated. The factories, and rail­ roads and steamships and electric rail­ ways cannot be operated without coal. And yet, although the prosperity of the country is menaced by the strike, the mine owners and the coal railroads, under the inspiration of J. Pierpont Morgan refuse to meet the difficulty. They will not listen to the demands of the strikers. They say there is noth­ ing to arbitrate. In this crisis, when the attitude of the coal magnates is haughty and sel­ fish, it is devoutly to be hoped that tbe striking miners will have the wisdom and the strength to preserve their self control. So long as they are peaceful and law abiding they stand a chance of winning, for public sentiment is being rapidly aroused in their favor. Let the American people once understand the insolent refusal of the coal lords to take any step towards the settlement of the strike and tbe sympathy of the people will go out so strongly for tbe humble men who toil deep in the bowels of tbe earth in one of the most dangerous as well as useful of avoca­ tions, that even J. Pierpont Morgan can not resist it. Surely this great captain of the captains of industry must know that public sentiment when aroused In a righteous cause is too Strong even for him to defy. Dr. L. N. Mixer ot Hsstings, Mich., has sold the exclusive right and orig­ inal recipe of his wonderful Cancer and Scrofula Syrup to the Ruma-Katah Health Co., Ltd., of thia city. Mr. C. M. Tower, the doctor’s son-in-law, and secretary to the Health Co., put the deal through and all details for manu­ facturing the medicine, office, files records and accessories for carrying on the busines on a larger scale has been moved to Battle Creek. Dr. L. N. Mixer was a pioneer of this state, moving into the township of Bal­ timore, Barry county, Mich., in 1862. By his own suffering, study and perse­ vere ncc he invented this remedy, which, after nine years of intense suf­ fering from cancer, cured him. His note and palate were completely eaten away and his face badly disfigured when cured. The dotcOr yet resides at Hastings, Mich., and although 74 years of age is in good health and possession of bis faculties. He says that he wishes the RumaKatah Health Co., now controllng it, tbe best of success, and that the hust­ ling city of Battle Creek is the right place to build up a great business, from the foundation he has laid. in 1860 and *70 be shipped ail of his output from the Battle Creek express office as it was the nearest to his farm home, in those days. It is now sold and recommended In every state in the union and also abroad. Mr. C. M. Tower, the inventor of Ruma-Katah. a cure for rheumatism and catarrh from which the New Health Co. takes its name, has been associated with his father-in-law, Dr. L. N. Mixer, since 1891, and helped him in the7 treatment of all cases. The selection of Mr. Tow­ er as secretary and manager, was a wise choice as he has traveled in al! parts of the country introducing RumaKatab and Mixer’s Cancer Syrup: aud his experience with thousands of cases thoroughly tit*- him for the position he holds.

We have been assured that nothing but Sret-clarti music will be fur- The Two E Are seldom the same size, 1 or set the same distance from the face. We have small eye, and one large one. We not infrequently find differences in other paired organs of the body, and could safely say that if any two were exactly alike it would be an exception to the rule. Then why should we ex­ pect perfection in eyesight, while granting imperfection in every other organ. In fact [very few are able to judge of their own visual imper­ fections, as they have never seen differently and it is natural to suppose that their vision is good and as compared with their own experience it is. It, therefore, devolves upon parents to look after their children’s eyes very closely, paying particular atten- I tion to their eyes after any acute disease with a tendency to ex­ haust the system, such as measles, whooping cough, grip, scarlet [fe­ ver and diphtheria, and it is bet­ ter that schooling be lost for a time than to force the child to overwork a weakened nerve force aud set of muscles, and the eyes started on a downward road, thereby bringing misery in after years. The methods of teaching should be so arranged that [the eyes have frequent rest from near work. Blackboards should be so placed that reflected light from windows does not fall upon their eyes. There should be plenty of light and ventilation. Every care should be given to make the rooms healthy, and keep the children’s eyes rested. Do not allow them to stoop over. See that the desks are at a suitable height that will make them sit properly and thus pro­ mote the circulation. Without this precaution many cases of spinal curvature will result. To sum up: Have the child’s eyes exam­ ined and corrected if necessary. See that conditions surround­ ing it are healthful, and in its studies it is not allowed to over­ do or contract bad positions. Keep close watch for eye trou­ bles and at tbe first suspicion have them re-examined. PAUL REVERE HUS closed Revere’s service in the war, which was then waning, and he continued assidu­ ously in the business of goldsmith and silversmith, which he re­ sumed when relieved from his command. His last contribution to the cause of Freedom w?s in the interest of the adoption of the Federal Constitution when that matter was being considered by the statesmen of Massachusetts. Its fate hung in the balance, when resolutions were presented to Samuel Adams, as usual a leader in the Conyention, by Paul Re­ vere, representing the mechanics and tradesmen of Boston in pub­ lic meeting assembled. The res­ lutions were effective, Massachu­ setts ratified the Constitution, and other States awaiting her decision, followed ter example. As at the beginning so at the end, Revere was preeminent in establishing Independence. His unique abilities show to the best advantage in his conquest over the mechanical and chemical problems of the times, and the services rendered the cause of lib­ erty through these channels are equal in importance to those we have related. One of the first of these was the manufacture of gunpowder, at Canton, Massa­ chusetts, when the only other source of supply was iii the neighborhood of Philadelphia, and the proprietor of that hostile to his enterprise. He succeeded, nevertheless, from the first, and thus greatly enlarged the resour­ ces of the Northern Army. He was also employed to oversee the casting of cannon, and to engrave and pnnt the notes issued by Co>gress and Massachusetts.... In ad­ dition to his regular trade, he es­ tablished an important hardware store on Essez street, op] **itethe ” site of the famous Libc Tree ofthe that was the center of mi itriotic demonstration of preevolutionary times.

U St. Joseph, 13: VanRuren The Machine Rules It is significant of tbe condition of things now prevailing in Michigan that only two men are talked of ax successors tp Senator McMillan and both these men are millionaires. Neither of them has any special qualifications for the • duties of United Statea senator. There " are a score of republicans in this state who would make better senators and who are more fully in touch with the ' • people of the state tnan W. C. McMillan U or General Alger. Why then must the state be represented in the senate ■ chamber by either oue of these gentlo. men? If the selection of the late sen­ . ator’s successor were to be made by . popular vote, we do not believe that the choice would fall upon either of them, but rather upon some more experienced . man than McMillan and a younger man than Alger. The people of the penin­ sular state need a broad man, and a statesman to serve them in the august ' upper chamber of the national leglsla; . ture. . ■. And yet in this machine-ridden state there are but two men mentioned for the senator-ship and there seems to be \ no alternative but to choose one or the u: other of them. If the legislature were( . to convene at the present time for the '* . purpose of electing Senator McMillan’s successor, no other names would be con­ sidered. There would be no attempt to find the best fitted citizen of the state for this high office. Two Detroit men with a whole barrel of money at their ' disposal have Influence with the ma­ chine and the machine controls the leglalytHr* Hence that body will have to act accordingly. In other words the selfish motives of a ring of politicians •; will govern the selection of a United States senator—not the calm, de’.lberative judgment of the legislature, pro­ . nounced only after determining the ■ wishes of the people. j The state of Michigan is ruled by a machine and the machine is controlled ; by selfishness and money. -J..- ■.

HASTINGS, CLOAKS, CAPES AND FURS We haven't an old cloak nor cape to show you. There isn't a questionable cloak ia our collection.

We admit your right to demand the same. Your money back if you are not satisfied. Perhaps lhe most remarkable scien­ tific discovery made in a long time--so far at least as its wonderful possibilities are concerned—is that of radium. Ap­ parently this substance has from the beginning been giving off particles at the rate of sixty to ninety thousand miles per second, without dimunition of il> own force—and will continue to do so forever. It supplies light with­ out heat. A ray of this light conducts electricity It converts oxygen into ozone and colors glass permanently brown. These are only a few of the properties of this remarkable sub­ stance. In the The Cosmopolitan for September a brief article is published under the title “A New Field for Spec­ ulation,’’ and announcement is made of a prize of three hundred dollars fur the best paper on this subject.

I ERE was apparently no limit to the variety of work successfully essayed by Revere, for it is shown by abundant testi­ mony that in his younger days he practiced with much skill the making and inserting of artificial teeth, which art he learned from an English dentist temporarily located in Boston, while he a’so designed many of the frames that now surround the paintings of his friend Copley. These were, how­ ever, but incidents in comparison with the heroic undertakings of his later years- Those were days of beginnings; when everything started from the fundamental ele­ ments and those elements were difficult to procure. No task ap­ palled him, and many of nature’s secrets yielded to his investiga­ tions. In 1789 he established an iron foundry of considerable ca­ pacity, and in 1792 began casting church bells, the first of which, still in existence, was for the Second Church of Boston. He cast many of these—later taking his son. Joseph Warren, into the business—and examples of them are numerous in the old parishes of eastern Massachusetts. One at Saint Paul’s Church, Newbury­ port, has been in continuous ser­ vice until* within a few months, and is now preserved as a relic. Brass cannon, and the many sorts of metal-work needed for the building and equipping of ships, of which the National Govern­ ment was a large purchaser, were a part of the regular product of this establishment. He invented a process of treating copper that enabled him to hammer aud roll it while hot, thus greatly faciliating the manufacture of the bolts and spikes needed in this work. In many respects the most im­ portant of all Revere’s enterprises was that of rolling copper into large sheets, inaugurated at Can­ ton, Massachusetts, in the year 1800. Concerning this, Revere says in a letter of December’ 22, that year: “I have engaged to build me a mill foi rolling copper ill to sheets, which for me is a very great undertaking, and will re­ quire every farthing which I can rake or scrape.” It should be re­ membered that his foundry and silversmithy were still ip opera­ tion, and therefore the aggregate of capital.required was consider­ able. He secured aid from the United States Government to the extent of ten thousand dollars, which was to be, and 'subsequent­ ly was, taken iip in sheet copper. This was the first copper rolling rail! in the country and it occa­ sioned much favorable comment, the more especially as every such triumph severed a bond of depend­ ency upon the mother country besides developing the power of our own. Here were made tbe plates—five feet long, three feet wide, and one-quarter inch thick —for the boilers of Robert Ful­ ton's steam engines, aad the sheets for sheathing many ships of war. rated as the Revere Copper Com­ pany, and under this name Is still WOOLLEY BRONSON'S � https://barrycountyhistoryportal.org/files/original/22/656/HastingsHerald_1902-09-18.pdf 9d3f7f60a726435852609f1bda40f903 PDF Text Text ■ ■ - - ■ • ■ ■ . . • 9 .

Fred L Heath THE DRUGGIST HASTINGS, MICH ^444444444 4 4 4 4 4 4444444444X GREAT REPUBLICAN FEAST TWO HUNDRED AND OVER OF THE FAITHFUL. Gathered at Reed’s Opera House and Filled Up on the Fine Viands Prepared for Them. There is nothing like a fine banquet, daintily spread and handsomely served, amidst pleasant surroundings and ac­ companied by charming music, to soothe the lacerated feelings of un­ successful office seekers. There is nothing known in campaigning equal to the spell cast over willing minds by eloquent platitudes about the gl-o-ri-ous things the grand old party has done in the past, especially when those plati­ tudes are uttered amidst the pleasant surroundings of the banquet hall. Knowing all this our republican friends prepared for a grand coup d’etat as a fitting finale to their county convention, and an auspicious opening to their campaign. True, such luxuries cost. money, nut the desperate straits of the party demanded the sacrifice. Something had to be done to dispel the cloud of gloom that was settling down over the county and impart a more joyful feeling in the hearts of the Blissleas faithful. And something was done indeed. The party leaders were equal co the emergency, and as a conse-queuoe, peace and harmony and enthus­ iasm have taken the place of heart burnings and despondency and gloom. The banquet of Tuesday night was a grand success, and his excellency, Aaron T. Bliss, may now rest assured that Barry county is no longer “agin” Two hundred and over of the faith­ ful gathered al Reed's opera house and partook of the floe feast which the PrMbytertan ladle* furnlabed tbmn, UaCiMd »0 the delfchtinl muata.wbkb Troxel’, orebe.ua dtaeounad, and drank in the ln.plraUoe, the wiidra ical lights were imported far the oc­ casion, and all of them proved entirely equal to the task. It was their duty to convince every Barry county man pres­ ent that the safety of the state of Mich­ igan and the welfare of Barry county republicanism demanded that be should vote a straight republican ticket this fall and they succeeded. There was not a candidate, or h would-be candi­ date, or a republican county commit­ teeman, or a republican office holder present who was not thoroughly con­ vinced that Mr. Bliss would have to be supported and the county ticket elected this fall, in order to prevent the awful calamity of seeing Judge Durand in the state capitol at Lansing, and that beau­ tiful building, the Barry county court house, desecrated by a lot of democratic office holders. Bliss and President Roosevelt. The farmer ought to have been there to hear the warm endorsement which he received, and the latter would have felt comforted for his defeat in trying to get justice foFCuba, if he could have heard Wm. Alden Smith’s defense of the Dingley tariff. But as these two dis tinguished republicans were not able to be present at Reed's opera house last Tuesday night, perhaps some thought­ ful republican, (like our friend, the editor of'the Banner,) will telegraph to the governor the high words of praise which were spoken for his ad­ ministration; and to the president the warm endorsement of his reciprocity measure Wm. Alden might have given him had he thought of it. We congratulate our republican fel­ low citizens on the enthusiastic success of their post-convention blow out. It was a fine argument in favor of Blissism and reciprocity, and will add gaiety to the coming campaign.

Resolutions Say Nothing of the Mismanagement of State Af­ fairs by the Republicans. The republican county convention was held Id the council room Tuesday. C. H- Thomas was made chairman and J. M. Smith secretary. The following ticket was nominated: Sheriff -James Brown of Hope. Clerk—Samuel Velte of Woodland. Treasurer—George Coleman of Johns­ town. Register of deeds—Aaron Sherk of Tbofnappl*^ Prosecuting attorney A. E. Kenaston of Hastings. Circuit court commissioners—J. M. Smith of Woodland and Donald McLeay of Prairieville. Coroners—E. H. Lathrop of Hastings and D. B. Kilpatrick of Woodland. Surveyor—Walter Heath of Prairie­ ville. Representative in state legislature— John J. Perkins. In the contest for the senatorial hon­ ors C. L. Glasgow of Nashville won out, defeating the Middleville candidate. Dr. Parkhurst, by a vote of 84 to 42. The fallowing resolutions, the last three- paragraphs of which were intro­ duced by Milt Jordan to the conven­ tion, and not by the committee, were adopted: The republicans of Barry county, in convention assembled, hereby renew our allegiance to the principles of the republican party whose consistent rec­ ord has helped to make the history of this ountry far the past fifty years the most glorious in the world’s annals. The benefits of an honest currency system coupled with the application of the American doctrine of protection to American industries in the wide spread business prosperity of this na­ tion, a prosperity unparalleled in the history of any nation. We commend the administration of President Roosevelt and his consistent pursuit of the wise policies of his pre­ decessor. and also far his fearless ad­ vocacy of government regulation of trusts and monopolies. , The utter untrustworthiness of the democratic party is shown by its course • today. In Iowa and New York it prac­ tically concedes the wisdom of the gold standard: in Ohio it endorses (rqe sil­ ver and lauds Bryan. In Michigan it entirely ignores all national issues. We condemn the democratic party with respect to our island possessions, t|nd insist That it is unwise and unpatri­ otic. We believe the policy of the republi­ can party is in all particulars wise and just, in demanding first of all respect for the flag and the guaranteeing as large a measure of liberty as is possible and insisting upon the establishing of free schools, also the letting the future demonstrate what future course should be taken with the Philippines. We believe therefore that the repub­ lican party deserves the continued con­ fidence of the American people, and we pledge to its principles our loyal and unswerving support. Be it further resolved that our repre­ sentative and senator in our next state legislature shall and they are hereby instructed to vote for and secure equal taxation of all values under the laws of this state and favor no law that permits the lender or borrower to make note of mortgage contract far the payment of the tax on such note or mortgage by the borrower. Be it further resolved by the repub­ licans of Barry county in convention assembled, that our state representa­ tive in the next Michigan legislature and our next senator from the fifteenth senatorial district of Michigan shall and he is hereby requested and in­ structed to vote far and secure an effective, efficient and practical pri­ mary election law, applicable to all municipal, township, county, district and suate primary elections. Be it further resolved by the repub­ licans of Barry county in convention assembled this 16th day of September, A. D. 1902, that our representative and senator from this the Barry countv representative district and the fifteenth senatorial district of Michigan, shall and they are hereby instructed to vote for and use all honorable means to se­ cure the election by the next legisla­ ture of Michigan of General Russell A.

Bat when the •tomach and other organi of digestion and nutrition are diseased, the nutritive properties are not extracted from food, the blood becomes poor, the body lacks adequate nourishment and the flesh "falls away." The weakness consequent on this loss of nutrition will generally find its expression in some one organ which has been longest starred. Thus as starvation causes weakness, when the nutrition falls short of the needs of the ’ body we may look for the expression of that weakness in some one organ—lungs, liver, heart, kidneys, or any other vital organ of the body. When the diseased stomach is cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, then the diseases of other organs which orig­ inated in the disease of the stomach are cured also. WHAT I’EOPLK SAY. ” Your ‘ Golden Medical Discovery ’ and Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy hav* been of great benefit to me,” writes (Prof.) Pleasant A. Oliver, of Viola, Ful­ ton Co., Ark. "“ Before “ ’I used• the above ‘ mentioned remedies my sleep was not sound ; di­ gestion bad ; a continual feeling of misery. I now feel like a new man." " I have been taking your medicines,” writes Mrs. W. M. Bowers, di Lynch, Boyd Co., Neb., "and I can’t say enough in their praise. They have helped me more than all our doctors have helped . me in two years' doctor­ ing. I spent dollars upon k'/ dollars for my lungs and <\ received no benefit from '1 the medicine I took, until / a lady friend advised me 1 to write to Dr. Pierce. I did so, took his kind *d.' vice, and am now so well M as to be able to do my Jc' own work I also took the t ' Golden Medical Discov‘ ery ’ and the ‘ Pellets ’ six months for liver disease and indigestion, os the kind doctor advised. I know that they reached A the case, as they have 1^. helped me so.” fe " I have taken your S medicine with the greatest satisfaction," writes Mrs. George Riehl, of Lock­ port Station, Westmore­ land Co., Pa., "and can honestly say Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery lias cured me of a pain in my right lung that the best doctors could not help. My appetite and digestion have improved so that I can eat anything at all, and 1 feel better than I have for years. My pain is all gone and I feel like a new person.” " I am glad to testifiy to the benefits derived from Dr. Pierce's Golden Med­ ical Discovery,” writes Miss Mary Belle Summerton, of San Diego, Duval Co., Teias.

If the body is erect, it acts as an excellent conductor for the lightning to find Its way to the earth. For this reason It Is danger­ ous to take refuge under a tree, says the Buffalo Courier. Doubtless most of the persons who perished while under trees would be alive today had they remained In the open. It Is also Injudicious to buddle under thrashing machines, sheds or In tbe grand stands of race tracks or county fairs, especially und^r or near the flag­ staffs which usually adorn such struc­ tures. Avoid standing In doorways, near chimneys and fireplaces, close to cattle or near the ends of a wire clothes­ line during a thunderstorm. On the other hand, there la not much sense In going to bed or trying to Insulate oneself In feather beds. Small articles of steel or Iron, as n knife, kettle or key. do not attract lightning, as It la popularly believed. If one has been struck by lightning, the first thing to do Is to go to work to restore consciousness, ns lightning oftener brings about suspended ani­ mation than somatic death. The eondltlon of a person struck by lightning Is much tbe same as that of a person rescued from drowning. Try to stim­ ulate respiration and circulation, Do not cease In the effort to restore anlmutlon In less than an hour, as you value the life of the sufferer. Sometimes an umbrella that begins to show tiny cracks and pin holes may be mended nt home. Open the umbrel­ la and hold it up to the light, biend the holes on the inside with black silk courtplaster cut slightly larger than the holes. Sun umbrellas and parasols are more effectively mended in this way than umbrellas, which sometimes require a repetition of the mending after being thoroughly wet. tor lortlanil. • »regon plain many fmnd.-i in Woodland a short vLir. ilh appear- . .

For Member State Legislature— The Selection of a Senator. Tbe determination of W. C. McMillan not to become a candidate for the sena­ torship and the consequent announce­ ment of Dexter M. Ferry's entrance in the race has of course changed the per­ sonal phase of the contest, but It has not removed its objectional features. Mr. McMillan represented the machine and he has turned over the machine to Mr. Ferry. He is a business man and a millionaire, and so is Mr. Ferry. He has no special training that would qualily him for the senate, neither has Mr. Ferry. Both of them are estimable gentlemen, no doubt, but so are many other citizens of Michigan, without be­ ing in any special way fitted for the re­ sponsibilities that devolve upon a Unit­ ed States senator. But as Mr. McMillan is out of tbe race and Mr. Ferry is In. the question has revolved itself into the comparative claims of Gen. /Kiger and Dexter Ferry. And yet this ought not to be the ques­ tion at all. The thing that ought to be considered in selecting Senator Mc­ Millan's successor is what man in the republican party of Michigan is best qualified to serve tbe people of this great commonwealth in the highest and most influential legislative body in the world? Who would fill the place with most credit to himself and to his con­ stituents? Who of all the public men of the state has bad the best training for the immensely important work of national legislation? What man is broad enough to go to Washington and make the state of Michigan the power it ought to be in the senate of tbe Unit­ ed States? If such questions as these were to de­ termine the selection of a senator, it is certain that neither one of the two De­ troit millionaires who are seeking the office would stand any show of success. Mr. Ferry has been a remarkably suc­ cessful business man, but this fact cer­ tainly does make him a statesman. General (Alger has held a conspicuous cabinet office from which he was com­ pelled to retire under a cloud of criti­ cism. But this does not argue his fit­ ness for the senate. Mr. Ferry was an active factor in the great boodle cam­ paign for the gubernatorial nomination at Grand Rapids two years ago, but this fact will hardly be urged in his favor in his present campaign, nor on the other band will Gen. Alger’s record as secretary of war. Why can not the republican party of Michigan in whom rest the power and the responsibility of giving the state a worthy representative in the United States senate, emulate the high example set by the recent democratic convention at Detroit by seeking out the man In­ stead of letting the man with the most “pull” carry off the place? This would be the reasonable, the wise and tbe patriotic way to settle the senatorial question. Alas, there is little likeli­ hood that it will be adopted. this state. It is not a question of par­ tisanship that the people of the state have to consider, but a question that concerns civic purity, public morals, good government. Surely, the honest citizens of both parties are equally in­ terested in such an issue. If Judge Durand becomes governor of Michigan, everybody knows that machine politics, ripper legislation, extravagance and incompetence In the executive office will cease to exist. It is because such reforms as these are involved, reforms that rise above party interests, that the democratic ticket appeals to thousands of honest republicans, as well a* to democrats. It is because the highest welfare of the state is involved, that so many thous­ ands of republicans are making up their minds to waive politics so far as the state ticket is concerned and vote for Durand and reform. And it is because the republican parers and leaders real­ ize this fact that they are making des­ perate efforts to turn aside the rising tide. It will be the duty and the pleas­ ure of the anti-Bllss press to prevent any such scheme from succeeding. Against the advice of McKinley, the ad juration of Roosevelt, the pledges of the republican platform, the good faith of the government and the dictate of humane consideration for a suffering people, the republicans, rather than diminish the unjust profits of the sugar trust, refused to do justice to Cuba. It was but the triumph of greed over right and justice. Tbe republican party owes its lease of power to the trusts and it cannot get far enough away from them to deliver an effective kick. Through tbe protective tariff, the infant industry has grown so rich and strong, at the expense of the consumer, that they are now, through the republican party rid­ ing rough shod over the rights of the people. The monsters the tariff has created have turned upon the nation and now hold it by the throat. And yet the Dingley bill still is in force. SHU it compels the oppressed consumer to pay over a tribute into trust coffers when he buys their goods. All the evils of the trusty which were created by the­ tariff continue to grow greater so long as the tariff remains. Is it not time for revision? Is it not time to elect a party to |x>wer which has always been the consistent enemy of trusts? The republican party replies lo the people’s demand for tariff revision with tbe statement that it must be revised by its friends. But when will that be done? The republicans do not attempt lo ex­ plain why their parly majority at the present session throttled Representa­ tive Babcock and refused to consider any question of tariff modification. They do not explain why no effort was made to strengthen the hands of the attorney-general so that a fight against the oppressive trusts might have some chance of success. That the republican leaders have steadily opposed all tariff legislation is beyond a doubt and in the recent campaign handbook of the re­ publican congressional committee there is no intimation of a purpose to revise it at all. On the same day that Judge Du­ rand's illness was announced the price of the Detroit United Railway stock rore six points on the New York mar­ ket. It is said that the railway people want tq put a ripper bill through the legislature next winter giving them a long term franchise. This would ex­ plain the rise in the price of the stock. Under Governor Durand there would be no chance whatever for such a bill to go through.

Must Not Be Lost Sight Of. It looks as if the solid delegation The fact must not be lost sight of that from Michigan would not be so solid in the main issue before the people of the next congress. ■ Michigan this fall is: Shall boss rule and machine politics continue to rule the state government, or shall the peo­ ple assert their rights to manage their own public affairs. The republican leaders and the republican press are trying their best to divert public atten­ tion from this issue to national politics T^to- the senatorial contest. They be allowed to do it.

It is no court secret that Depew has been a failure as a senator. From the first he has neglected the duties of the post and he ceased long ago to be count­ ed upon for anything involving work. He attends no committee meetings, or attends them so rarely as to be wholly out of touch and sympathy with tbe work, and declines absolutely tbe de­ partment grind which all senators have more or less to do. Brilliant speaker as be is, he makes no speeches which call for laborious preparation, though willing enough to show himself off in fun-making sallies when the galleries are crowded. Of course, New York is not satisfied with this sort of a repre­ sentative, and favorite as tbe suave Chauncey is it is believed that his sen­ atorial days are numbered.—From the Portland Oregonian. In the last session of the legislature, one of the ripper bills changed the gov­ ernment of the Detroit police force, placing it entirely in tbe hands of one man, and the last year has seen a con­ tinual series of mishaps and blunderings, the most recent of which were tbe kidnapping of a witness in the Andrews' case and the carting of a dying man through the streets on a mistaken charge of drunkenness. There may have been mitigating circumstances connected with some of the misfortunes of the force since the change of policy, but it is evident that all details are to be kept from the public hereafter. An order has just been issued by the one man commissioner suppressing the pub­ lic blotter in the general office, and no news of public doings will be given out hereafter, except as the head of the defiartment desires. The public is to keep n Ignorance of such things as may be embarrassing to the department. This is beautifully like the Russian police system, but must be accepted as a legi­ timate results of ripperism.—Grand Rapids Press. It Is Too Easy. . Iron and steel exports for the Govern­ ment year ended June 30 last are stated at over >20,000,000 less than similar ex­ ports for the previous twelve months. This, naively remarks the treasury ex­ perts. has been due to increased domes­ tic demand and slackened inquiry abroad. Exactly so. But why should foreign demand be lessened just when the irton and steel industry in this coun­ try has attained to such perfection of corporate organization? Is the groat combination unable to compete in the world's markets, or, on the other band, is the squeezing of the dSmestic con­ sumer too easy and profitable to be in­ termitted for a beggarly foreign trade adventure.—Philadelphia Record. Manhood Against Machinery. In his letter, Judge Durand points clearly to the evils which make his election a necessity if the state is to be reformed, and puts himself upon record as being in favor of those measures which the people demand and the Bosses deny. . The great moral issue involved in the campaign is clearly set forth in these two sentences from the letter: ‘T hope to live to see tbe day when the aspirations of au honest man shall not suffer because he refuses to wear another's political yoke. I hope to live to see tbe day when a true, noble man­ hood shall count for as much in politics as in private citizenship." Here we have the foundation issue of the campaign. It is manhood against machinery: character against money.— Lansing Journal. Reduced Rates to the West.

Excursion The Governorship and the Sen­ atorship. The campaign in Michigan furnishes a convincing illustration of tbe sub­ ordination of the governorship. Since the death of Senator McMillan popular interest in tbe contest for governor has rapidly decreased. Where one man talks about the governorship, ten are talking about the senatorship. They are curious to know, not whether Du­ rand or Bliss will be governor, but whether Alger or Ferry will be senator. To the republican politicians the defeat of the party candidate for governor means merely the loss of that office and the loss of a little state patronage for a period of two years. But the senatorial contest determines whether the old dynasty is to retain its supremacy, or whether there is to be a new dynasty; whether tht pie is hereafter to be il­ luminated with the McMillan crest or the Alger crest. It is a contest that appeals directly to the stomach of every politician of the dominant party: for there is none so weak in spirit or so poor in imagination that be does not ex­ pect, some nay, to hold a federal office with all the exterior embellishments of a sinecure. As the campaign has shaped itself, the governorship is considered merely one of tbe stars in a political universe. If it is extinguished, the stability of the system will be io no wise impaired.—Detroit Free Press.

Sept. 15.—Health Officer Friedrich has issued an order which means death to hundreds of cats and dogs in the city. The doctor insists that in all families where smallpox is discovered and where there is a dog or a cat the animal must be killed. "Dogs and cats are tbe means of spreading xnc disease to a considera­ ble extent In this city, I believe,” de­ clared the health officer. ’It may seem cruel to take their lives, but for the safety of human beings I think It en­ tirely wise to follow out that method.” Dr. Friedrich has contended for some time that cats and dogs are the worst distributors of the smallpox germs that can be found The hair of either animal may be filled with the germs, be says, and then a child may piay with tae pet The result is an­ other new case of smallpox. If the dog is permitted to run at large the danger is more than doubled.

He was one of the organizers of the Grand Lodge of Massachu­ setts, and was its Grand Master from 1794 to 1797. In this ca­ pacity he assisted Governor Sam­ uel Adams at the laying of the corner store of the Massachusetts state house, July 4, 1795, and al­ so delivered an address on that In 1783 Saint Andrew’s Lodge was divided upon the question of remaining under the jurisdiction of the Grand Lodge of Scotland, which had chartered both it and the Grand Lodge of Massachu­ setts, or of affiliating with the latter. Twenty-nine members favored the old arrangement, while twenty-three, including Revere, desired to change. The minority withdrew and formed the Rising States Lodge, Septem­ ber, 1784, with Paul Revere its first Master. He made jewels for these lodges, and engraved and printed elaborate certificates of membership and notification cards. At the death of General Wash­ ington he was made one of a committee of three Past Grand Masters to write a letter of con­ dolence to Mrs. Washington and to solicit from her a lock of the hero’s hair. This request was granted, and Revere executed a golden urn, about four inches in height, for the reception of the relic. He was one of the pall­ bearers at the observance of Washington’s funeral by the Ma­ sons of Boston, and prepared the insignia, a large white marble urn on a pedestal covered with a pall and bearing other suitable emblems. Through correspondence he cultivated the acquaintance of relatives, in Guernsey and in France, and from them learned much family history, often con­ tributing on his part patriotic de­ fence of his country and its French allies, of whom his cousin in Guernsey was especially de­ nunciatory. � https://barrycountyhistoryportal.org/files/original/22/656/HastingsHerald_1902-09-26.pdf 149c5e2b34a6559ba74743c1d5838ee2 PDF Text Text Vol. HASTINGS, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 1902. Na 19 A REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPER THE BENTON HARBOR PALLADIUM OPPOSES HAMILTON. Criticlses Manner of His Nomina­ tion and Hi* Attitude on Cuban Issue. . ’ Under the caption of “Where Haste was Wrong,” the Benton Harbor Pal­ ladium, a republican paper, in its issue of Sept. 15, publishes a letter from a subscriber and replies editorially as follows: Editor Palladium: When republicans refuse to vote for our present repre­ sentative in congress because he op­ posed a concession to Cuba, it must be . that they would prefer a free-trader in his । place, who is a friend of Cuba, rather than a protectionist who is op­ posed to helping that island by reduc­ ing the duty on sugar produced there. Such a course (supporting an anti« protectionist) would show more interest in the welfare of Cuba than lor our own people. However much we may feel that it is our duty to help Cuba, we cannot afford to have our own in­ dustries crippled to help the foreign country. The reasons given for not supporting Mr. Hamilton are just as good outside of the fourth district as they are in it, <i for opposing at tbe polls a republican candidate ’for congress because he is not in favor of granting to Cuba what her friends ask for her. Should the feeling manifested here become gen­ eral over the country, it might change materially the republican representa­ tion in congress. If ^he friends of a concession in favor of Cuba were determined to make that a paramount issue, they should have shown their opposition in the caucus, - and not until after the nomination. If tbe sugar interests of this country are controlled by a trust, as claimed by fir. Proctor, which is charging un­ reasonable profits, the better way to regulate that, as it is to regulate the r prices of trust product® in geheral, is that the duty is only high enoughprotect reasonable profits, bat not destroy an industry that is giv­ Ing employment to our people. J. A. Donaldson. St. Joseph, Mich., Sept. 15, 1902. The above communication brings out some well timed suggestions which it will be proper at this time to consider. Mr. Donaldson’s first paragraph is sufficiently answered by his closing sen­ sense*. ’ To do justice to Cuba does not in any event imply going back to free trade. , The admission of Cuban sugar duty free would, not by any means de­ stroy or even cripple our own sugar in­ dustries, either cane or beet, and the principle of protection would not in the < least be imperiled by carrying out the obligations and the promises of this na­ tion to the little republic which is in fact a creature of our own making and not a “foreign country” in the usual sense of that term. . . Mr. Donaldson’s inference that Mr. Proctor’s reasons do not apply solely to the fourth Michigan district is correct. Tbe same question is being widely agltoted and will no doubt in some close districts serve ,to defeat republican members and give the democrats an ad­ vantage, which they will have gained by the obstinate and ill-advised actions of senators and representatives who put selfish or supposed party interests above the plain duty of the nation. , The essence of the local situation lies In the fourth paragraph of Mr. Donaldthe heading of this article, “where »sman Hamilton’s course on the Cua question a» now appears, the conMstonal committee of postmasters in s district met, somewhat clandeatinelast winter and called the congres3*1 convention six months before the ction, and before the people had be­ a to consider or discuss the issue* of t campaign. Such an early convenn was never heard of in this district, undue haste was remarkable i if‘ Mr/Hamilton** coarse 1inoonZ.. Z.—-------------- —• igan, dodged the Cuban issue by an ambiguous plank in the platform, and there is accordingly now no opportunity for the people of this district to declare their views on the most important pub­ lic-issue of the campaign, except by their votes at the polls. That they will make themselves felt there, however,' is indicated by the large number of republicans who have called on Mr. Proctor and on the Pal­ ladium to express themselves in entire harmony with Mr. Procter’a letter and to say th*t they cannot vote for Mr. Hamilton next fall.

Ferris, democratic can­ didate for superintendent of public instruotion, is one of the ablest educa­ tors of Michigan. He is a man of very strong personality, possesses irreat per­ sonal magnetism and never fails to at­ tach people to himself when they come in Intimate contact with him. He is a fine orator, speaks rapidly and force­ fully. There are few if any better speakers in Michigan than he is. He is not only a scholarly man, but a great administrator. This is proven by his success in building up tbe Ferris In­ stitute at Big Rapids. This institution, starting from the foundation under Mr. Ferris’ leadership has grown to giant proportions, now numbering in the student body 1,500 students. The school includes, sixteen departments. A man who can enter the educational field of Michigan with Ker excellent public school system, her normal schools, colleges and university, and in a few brief years develop such a pri­ vate school in^which all students are required to pay tuition, must not only offer the people something they want, but must have a high order of ability. To be convinced of the high regard in which the entire student body of tbe Institute, past and present, holds Mr. Ferris, one has but to meet the indi­ viduals of this army of young men and women anywhere he may run across them. They are always enthusiastic in his praise. And wherever these young, men are located throughout Michigan, there will be found warm supporters of Mr. Ferris, no matter what their political affiliations may be. Mr. Ferris has been the nominee for congress in his district and his popu­ larity was attested in that all -the op­ ponents oflthe republican party united upon him. If he is elected superin­ tendent of public instruction, the state win have at the head of her education­ al department a man who will be able to perform well his part anywhere and everywhere. Michigan will never have cause to feel belittled by her rep­ resentative In^any capacity iq which he may be called' to appear- In any of tbe great representativeiteacbers ’ or­ ganisations of the nation, he will **" measure up uniong the leaders. Nobody’s Claim. There is something about Western plays that appeals strongly to the American heart. “My Partner” with ■a beautiful story enacted by the late Louis Aldrich caught the public fancy and for years was a success beyond be­ lief. “Arizona” next came to bid for public favor and waa at once branded with the stamp of success.

Mr. Hor­ ton skinned his knuckles on the ties and he knew he had been somewhere not down as a stopping place, while the Ga­ zette man sat down on the track a little heavier than he ever did before.

Tea made For Auditor General. THE MAYOR’S SECOND VETO David A. Hammond, the democratic cand Id ate for auditor general, is a na­ tive of Washtenaw county, having been born in the township of Augusta, Dec. 16,1855. His early days were not different from the average farmer boy’s. In those days that section was new country and his circumstances were such as to make it necessary to shift for himself at an early age. He became familiar with all kinds of labor incident to farm life in a new section. He attended the district school winters and “worked out” summers, and when he was 16 years old, having accumulat­ ed a little money, entered the state nor­ mal school at Ypsilanti. He was un­ able to pursue his studies here without intermission on account of’ lack of funds. Before he was 18 years old he was teaching a district school to get money to continue his education. He taught his first school in Calvin town­ ship, Cass county, on the border of the big black settlement of that country, and out of an enrollment of 55, 27 were Negroes, He taught several terms of winter school and kept on with his ■work at the normal, and-finally gradu­ ated in 1878. In the fall of 1878 he was elected the principal of the high school at Blissfield, Lenawee county, which position he held for four years. While he was in this position, he was elected township superintendent of schools, carrying the election in a township which had given 329 majority for Gar­ field the fall before. Tbe following year he was elected a member of the county board of examiners and one year thereafter became its secretary. He was also elected superintendent of the Tecumseh schools, where he fol­ lowed in the footsteps of some of the best known educators in the state. He was i when elected, the youngest man who had ever held the place, but his work waa so satisfactory that he con­ tinued In the position for six years and was elected for the seventh year by a unanimous vote of the board, but re­ signed to take the superintendency of the Charlotte city schools, for which place he was asked to become a candi­ date, although there were*forty appli­ cants for it. He continued in this of­ fice for five years, and during bls ad­ ministration the graduates of the high school were admitted to the University in all courses without examination, for the first time. Mr. Hammond will make an ideal auditor general. He is a fine account­ ant, thorough gentleman, and what is ever more important, thoroughly honest. The people can be sure that no corrupt scheme to rob tbe treasury, □o “grafts” will pass the auditor gen­ eral’s office while it is filled by Mr. Hammond. Although a man of large Intelligence and a fine-scholar, Mr. Hammond has always felt himself one of the plain people from whom he sprung, and the plain people, if he is elected, will find in him a state officer whom they can respect, approach with confidence and always trust.

A council meeting was called for COUNCIL AUTHORIZE COMMITTEE last evening, but no quorum was pres­ ent, and the matter of erecting the TO ERECT POLLING PLACES. buildings could not be reconsidered. In fact it is intimated the committee But Mayor Anderson Says the City will go ahead and provide the buiUTHas no Right to Borrow the Mon­ ings under a resolution passed last April that the cost shall not exceed ey or Use Next Year’s Taxes. •175 for each building. At tbe regular meeting of the com­ mon council last Friday evening the city property committee was authorized to erect suitable buildings in the first and second wards for election and registratioq purposes, and for storing of hose carts and hose. The buildings are to ccst not over 1250 each and are to be paid for after Jan. 1st, next. The intent of the council is to be commended. Anyone who has ever sat on election or registration boards in either of the wards knowsithat it will be money well spent. It will also af­ ford better fire protection for those wards. No doubt volunteer depart­ ments will be organized, and in case of a fire, especially in the winter time when snow is knee deep, the volun­ teers will be on the scene of action several hours before the heavy wagon can be drawn half a block. Mayor Anderson, recently vetoed a resolution authorizing the erection of the buildings because the finances of the city would not permit. The reso­ lution passed last Friday does away with this objection, so thinks Aid. Brooks, its author. Yesterday afternoon Mayor Ander­ son filed a veto with City Recorder Roberta to the last resolution passed. The mayor agrees with the aider­ men on tbe proposition that the buildings should be erected, that they would be good things for both wards, but he does not believe that it is a good policy to go beyond the 65,000 limit or anticipate the future collection of taxes for any purpose. The follow­ ing is the veto: Hastings, Mich., Sept, 20, 1902. To the Common Council of the City of Hastings, Michigan. Gentlemen: I consider it my duty to veto the resolution adopted by your honorable body at a meeting held Sept. 19th, which reads as follows: “Resolved that the citv property committe are hereby authorized to cause to be constructed in the first and second wards, a voting house and hose house, at a cost not to exceed.two hun­ dred and flftyidollars each, the same to be paid January 1st, 1903, without in­ terest. Frank C. Brooks.” In so doing, I take the ground that we can not legally bind the city to any* such proposition for the reason that you have now appropriated all the mon­ ies you can under the charter until this year’s taxes are collected; and for the further reason that under the decision of the courts you can not anticipate the collection of taxes for such a purpose unless the taxes for that purpose be actually levied. With the cash we now have on hand and with what will be collected in the way of rents and water tax, and what we may borrow under the provision of the charter, will, in round numbers, by Dec. 1st, 1902, amount to 62,735.00. The actual running expenses of the city to that time will be about 62,650.00, and that amount you have already ap­ propriated. This will leave but 675.00 on* hand for contingences that may arise. This, you will see, is a very small amount for such purposes. I am well aware that the first and second wards need such buildings as you proposed, but, under the present condition of the city finances, you should at least wait until next year be­ fore building them. The annual ap­ propriations go before the council at the next regular meeting, and at that time an appropriation can be made for such buildings as you have proposed. I deem it very poor policy for the coun­ cil to appropriate next year’s taxes be­ fore they are collected, as I think it is in direct violation of the city charter which provides that the council shall not borrow more than five thousand dollars in any one yea;, unless the question be first submitted to the elec­ tors of the city and a majority voting therefor. Very Respectfully, The action of both council and mayor will, we hope, result In much good. In conversation with Mayor Anderson he stated to the Herald that he kno.rs the buildings should be erected, but he Is thoroughly convinced that the city cannot legally do it. He says the oquncil have now expended about 110,000 and the only improvements to show for it are the water works extensions and the air left system. He further said that if those interested had introduced the resolution to build earlier in the year B would have, carried and he would not have filed any objection. The matter of erecting these build­ ings have been brought into such prominence .hat we believe before the frost is opt of the ground in the spring foundations will be built? It is also stated that the charter doe* not provide a way for tbe council to pass anything over tbe mayor’s head. His veto Is final. If suet 1* the case, and we believe it is, the mayor is resporsible to the people and oouncilmea •re tltaplj Ms igenta. Before the Durand Withdraws.

Representative John Weriey Gaines, the versatile and energetic statesman from Tennessee, in a recent interview in tbe Washington Times, states in ex­ cellent language the real ideas u nd er■ lying the attitude of both the republi­ can and democratic parties in the pend­ ing congressional campaign. He says: “In the president'* recent speech at Fitchburg, Mass., he used the pronoun ,1 twenty-five times. I counted them. That is very significant as showing that be is speaking for himself only, what the party may do is quite another mat­ ter. I regard the president as a sincere man, but he is stating his personal posi­ tion, while tbe democrats are urging their party position. “The republican party managers have avoided any anti-trust legislation throughout both McKinley and Roose­ velt’s term of office. The democrats have urged strengthening tbe present law and in the meantime giving it a vigorous enforcement, as far as it goes.” This is tersely put and sums up the real situation as it exists. It should be remembered that Congressman Gain6s was addressing himself to the utter­ ances of the president concerning the regulation ana control- of trusts. The president should be credited with sin• oerity in stating his own views a* to the method of solving the trust evil. But the attitude of bls party leaders, in both the past and the present, develops tbe fact that though the president may agree with the democratic position, yet he is powerless to carry out, in a repub­ lican senate and bouse, his ideas. In the language of Congressman Living­ ston: “The president needs a demo­ cratic house to assist him in handling the trust*.” It is evident that Mr. Roosevelt sees the necessity of tariff reform. And it is also manifest that tariff reform must come by and through the policies so long advocated by the democratic party. Roosevelt's Weakness. In bis speech in Cincinnati, President Roosevelt was guilty of unexpected weakness and lack of that downright, genuine appreciation of the country’s situation with which be has been cred, ited. Following out the plan arranged in that Oyster Say conference with the high-tariff senators, the president urged that no change in the tariff could Injure a trust without producing injury to all other interests. Such a statement is untrue and unworthy a man of sup­ posed clearness of vision and boldness of action and speech. Tbe president ought to know—as everybody else knowa —that even the threat to admit duty­ free su ch articles as are made by a trust would r esult in a deduction in the prices of such goods to all consumers. In fact, an am endment to tbe tariff law, with this ob ject in view, would put an end to the ex tortions of the trust, and Ameri­ can co nsumere could buy as cheaply as do the foreign consumers.—Grana Rap­ ids Post-Democrat. ball k> fine a* Mr*.

We nave a legislature in' Michigan to be elected this fait The chief busi­ ness of this legislature is to make laws for over two millions of people. It is a task requiring thought, brains, and honesty, But now are we going about the work of choosing men for this important pub­ lic duty?' Are we weighing theta by the standard of intelligence, or honor­ able service, of real ability, of proved honesty? Not at all. Two-thirds of the members of tbe next legislature will be chosen because they favor one- man or another for United States senator. They may be good men; they must be pledged to vote for some candidate forsenator. The majority of the members of tbe next legislature cannot go to Lansing next winter unless they have first bad a heart to heart talk with someone’s campaign manager and have Sermitted that manager to put the can­ id ate’s collar about their necks. We are criticising no political party, much less no individual. The fault goes deeper. It lies in the system itself. Here is the argument for popular elec­ tion of senators. It is not so much that we might get better senators—our sen­ ators on the whole are about as good men as our governors who are chosen by popular vote. But popular election of senators leaves tbe people a chance to vote for legislators on the grounds of their fitness for tbe office and not on the grounds of their being pledged to a cer­ tain candidate for the United States senate;—Michigan Farmer. Why Speaker Henderson Resigned. The reasons thus far advanced for Speaker Henderson’s act of political hari-kari are as follows: 1. Some of the republicans of his district did not agree with him on the matter of tariff revision. This is the reason given by the speaker himself. 2. He was afraid that he could not be elected. 3. He was afraid that he could not be re-elected speaker. 4. He was jealous of the growing popularity and influence of Gov. Cum­ mins. 5. He was Incensed because the presi­ dent had not invited him to confer with the senators of Oyster Bay. 6. He was an ass. Of all these reasons the last seems to be the most comprehensive. Doubtless it includes the actual reason, which the Not Doomed for Life. “I was treated for three years by good doctors,” writes W. A.

Ills life bad apparently been above suspicion, and when ru­ mors began to float a tout that some transactions In which the senator was concerned were very shady, bls friends laughed at them, and declared that High could never be guilty of any such thing. When the evidence of some of bls desIs were laid before them they were thunderstruck, and a number were heard to say that henceforth It would be impossible for them to put any faith in human nature. The exact amount of bls transac­ tions cannot be stated at present, but It is Intimated that they will reach several thousand dollars, and that a number of Ovid iieople will be losers. At least one Instance of alleged fraudulent transactions on the part of High has come to light at Owooso, and two others are known of. The man who tells the story and vouches for its accuracy Is W. Harvey Ax ford, hay and grain dealer, who resides at 612 West Main street, Owosso. James Frail, of Belvidere, N.

Mra. Goodlander had had more than her share of romance. Grace Briggs was a pretty girl and popular in social circles here. Tbe an­ nouncement of her engagement to a wealthy mine owner In the west, and her subsequent departure for that sec­ tion of the country to marry Robinson Caused quite a local sensation. Tiie developments following her marriage, however, caused even a greater sensation. Before tbe marriage ceremony was performed Grace Insist­ ed on $50,(XX) In gilt edged mining stocks being made over to her for her own use. Robinson wittingly acceded to tbe girl’s demand. 81x months later came the news that the young bride had deserted her hus­ band and was on her way home. This was followed by tbe news of her ar­ rest at Cleveland, O., at the Instigation of her husband, who had begun suit to recover tbe 150,000 stock dowry. The courts threw out his case, and tbe bride hung on to the cash. Shortly afterwards she created a third sensation by securing a divorce, which was followed by her marriage to Goodlander.

This Une of argument is not consis­ tent with Mr. Roosevelt's attitude to­ wards Cuban reciprocity. He has made most strenuous efforts to Induce congross to reduce the duties on Cuban sugar and tobacco and by these efforts has raised a great storm of protests by the beet sugar interests. The “insur­ gents” claim that to admit Cuban sugar free would ruin them. Mr. Roosevelt, however, rising above sordid considera­ tions, has steadily fought for justice to Cuba. At ths same time he has main­ tained that tariff reduction on Cuban sugar would not injure materially the beet sugar interests of the United States. No# he says that any reduc­ tion of the tariff would be inimical to the country. By his Cincinnati speech the pros!dent has made it evident that no relief from the trust evil through tariff reduc­ tion will be attempted by his party and in so doing has cleared the situation, but at the same time he has made it more difficult to carry on his struggle for Cuban reciprocity. ’ .

Miss Mary Woolley constantly has to submit to a somewhat trying compari­ son with Mary Lyon, who is regarded by many persons as the patron saint of the higher education of women. Miss Woolley is the president of Mount Holyoke college, which was founded by Miss Lyon. It was Mount Holyok* seminary in those days, and there was then quite as much attention paid to religion as to the higher education, and a good deal to housework, of whldj every student had to do her share. Mis* Lyon sent out many missionaries and wives of missionaries into foreign lands from Mount Holyoke and pupil* of hers founded two branch Holyoke*, one in Painesville, O., and the other in Oxford, in the same state, both of which rivaled the mother seminary in their contributions to the missionary field.

He was its first president, and continued in that office until 1799, when he declined re-election, although his interests in its affairs was undi­ minished and his counsel its main dependence. Forty years old when he rode ' on the midnight alarm, Patil Re­ vere gave the prime of his life to the service of his country. His earlier years of enthusiasm had prepared the way, and his later years reaped the reward of his patriotism, ind ustry and virtue This reward was both material and temporal. From the people he h?d unqualified respect and abundant honors, while his own talents had provided him with a competency that enabled him to live well, to educate a large family of children, and finally to leave them in comfortable cir­ cumstances. He died May 10,1818, aged 83 years, and was buried in the Granary Burial Grounds in the company of'his former friends, John Hancock and Samuel Adams, and in the Center of the scenes of his activity—almost under the shadow of the state house whose cornerstone he helped to Kt and whose signifi­ cance he had labored to establish.

The people in the house looked at one , another wonderingly. No ope dared to be the first to tempt fate by getting up ■ and leaving the theater. Yet each man ' there believed that the threat was a I "bluff,” Intended to give the robbers a1 chance to get safely away. They were disinclined, however, to put their belief , to the test, and no one stirred. While! matters were still in this indeterml-^ nate state a piercing cry of "FireFV fang out throughout the house and, was immediately taken up on several, sides. Tbe managers of the theater at this outcry rushed od the stage and shouted words meant to be calming to tbe audlence. They succeeded in a measure in allaying tho panic which was begin­ ning to get under way, but many peo­ ple, overwrought by the evening’s hap­ penings, rushed from the theater out into the street Then It was discovered conclusively that there was no fire, out that the scare raised by the cry bad added to the start already gained by Gentleman George and his band. By noon on the day following the sheriff was ready to start for the of GeRti«*num-George with a The Oaktree Opera House was un­ usually crowded. The people of Oak­ tree are a drama loving community, and the Watson-Duval Double Star combination was giving "Hamlet." The manager estimated that there was at least $500 In the house, his prosaic way of summing up the value of tbo audience from tbe box office point of view.. There was a good deal more than $500 In the house from the practlcal financial view of Gentleman George, known in the adjacent moun­ tains, where he made 'Iris beadquar­ ters, as the leader of tho Bed Clips. Gentleman George had a reputation that branched out into several of the adjoining states. Hta methods of brig­ andage were more novel than tbe unorlginalhy of his sobriquet would lead vou to believe; but, then, he was not responsible for tbe adjective. Gentleman George visited Oaktree occasionally, but a discreet population refused to recognise him, and the au­ thorities were conveniently unaware ot his identity; hence tt was quite In order, as with other personages, that he should attend the performance at the opera bouse Incog. The curtain had fallen oa the second act and the audience was for settling itself^back into Its seats when a tall, 5eanle<£ distinguished looking gentle­ man in evening dress appeared before the curtain and made a sign to the au­ dience, begging their attention. The audience craned forward In their seats. The man raised an impressive hand find began: "Ladies and gentlemen, I trust that 1 shall have your undivided attention. We are about this evening to vary the programme slightly and shall, with your kind indulgence, offer a little comedy, part of whose action will take place in the body of the house. I think it well to warn you beforehand that it would be best for yon to keep seats. If you obey this injunction, H will be In no danger whatever, H should you Decome restive eerlous^H cidents may happen.

CHURCH IN CLOVERDALE. Stands on the Platfotm and proves all the Features of Document. The following is the full text of the letter of L. T. Durand, accepting the Democratic nomination for governor: To the Democratic State Central Com­ . mlttee*. The sad circumstances connected ! with the affliction of the nominee of the democratic state convention for the office of governor, which have made his withdrawal from the ticket necessary, having imposed upon the state central committee the duty of meeting the emergency and (making provisions for a successor, and the com­ mittee, as a result of their delibera­ tions, having asked me to accept the nomination, I have concluded to com­ ply with the request^ and so far as able to take up the cause which a cruel fate has prevented the nominee of the con­ vention from actively espousing, and to do what I can resolutely and honest­ ly towards the triumph of those prin­ ciples of better politics and state gov­ ernment enunciated in the platform of the convention, and Tor which his nom­ ination stood. I had, by letter to the committee in­ dicated my wish that another selection be made, and I am not unmindful of the fact that many of those whoee names were under consideration might, more acceptably, have filled the posi­ tion of leadership in this contest, and they would have received my warm support,.but with a deep trust that the same loyal encouragement will be ac­ corded me as would nave been given to the regular nominee of the convention, or to another the committee might have chosen, both by the party for which the committee has spoken, and by those outside of the party who have become enlisted for the betterment of ihe conditions as voiced by the conven­ tion platform, 1 have deemed it to be a duty to yield my personal wishes and interests to the judgment reached.

The issue squarely presented is be­ tween plutocracy or machine politics controlled by corporate and individual wealth and ambition upon the one hand, and the people or the sacred politicarrights and privileges of the citi­ zen upon the other. ’* The platform of the convention tersely expresses the situation in relation to machine politics which has been so long dominant in our state with reI qpecL to nominations for public office and with respect to legislation, and aptly voices the appeal which the peo­ ple from all quarters of the state have been making in vain for relief. The theory of our political system is that the ultimate sovereignty is in the people. It is a political maxim that government rests upon tbe consent of the governed, and from the birth of our republic until now, no one has been bold enough to openly champion a different doctrine. The prerogative of the citizen's bal­ lot is itbe highest function of Ameri­ can citizenship, and tbe right of local self-government is its most valuable asset. Men of all parties who are honest so understand it. Tbe founders of this republic, with its great systemof statehood never intended, that the political problems of either the state or nation should be solved in favor of any class or combinations of men craving in our state‘political system, that here­ after the citizens of Michigan may, without (tbe intervention df third par­ Wednesday and Thursday.

It is not contemplated that the peoEle of the parties to which they might elong should be compelled to wear tbe yoke of any political machine. Those who after much sacrifice, or­ dained the institutions of our country we have :learned to cherish, did conteinplate that the dweller in a cottage should be as secure in his political and civic rights as the dweller in a palace. They certainly understood that public office was a public trust, and that the pathway to it should be as open to sterling, capable manhood, as to the favorites of fortune or of political syn­ dicates. POWER OF COMBINATION IS VICIOUS. The power of combination—no mat­ ter in which party it is exerted—which seeks to control the citizen's ballot is as subtle and as vicious as tbe power of combination which seeks to control the foed or tbe coal supply of the land. The business enterorisesand the in­ dustrial classes of Michigan are alike interested in this question. The tendeucy of tbe hour seems to be toward trusts in politics as well as in business, and the baneful effects of both are now being felt as never before. The business activities and railroad enterprises of our state have done much toward our Internal development, and when conducted upon principles of justice-will always receive encourage­ ment, but whenever, fed by prosperity. , their energies become directed toward the abuse of tbe privileges they enjoy and toward the control of the political , and civic rights of others, their meth­ ods call for the condemnation of all honest men. What the people demand is less partixamdpp and less legislation for class and partisan purposes. What they de­ mand of their public servants is honest attention to public duty, and less atten­ tion to politicians.

Scarcely within the history of our country has there been such an exhlbi- ' frootery aa that which took place before President Roosevelt last Friday, when the eoal operators so bluntly refused to entertain tbe proposition to erbUrete tbe (noble between tbernaslre*andth* to be e men MooMrful _ opening lor the season. The eye* o! each member were instantly attracted oo eaterlnc tbe place ot meeting as bouquets ot bright autumnal hum were pieced at each window and upon the table ot tbe presiding officer. The deft finger* ot two member*. Mr*. Wlgbunan and Mr*. Maggie Baller, bad furnished these and draped tbe Ameri­ can dag over tbe door* between tbe audience room aad the small apartment on the east. After singing a ***** of• America cams roll call which a a* an*. of B * : I t^s rswot able attitude at Mr. Mitchell, president of the miners’ uedeo, who offered to sdhmR all quwtfoos in dispate to a tribunal of Mr. Roosevelt*• own selection and to abide by the re­ suit whether favorable to the miners or not, in spite of the terrible suffering which Is impending unless coal mining is resumed at once, in spite of the wish? 'es of the whole country, these lordly mine owners refused to listen to say mediating proposal whatever. On the contrary their spokesman, President Baer of the Reading railroad, not only characterized the striking mi­ K pers as fomenters of anarchy, but im­ pudently told the chief executive to his face that the gqvernment is a ‘^conof . .temptible failure” If it compromises J ‘ | with the miners, whom be called "viplators of law” and "Instigators of violenoe and crime.” , K. The attitude of these coal magnates Is unworthy of this age and nation. They have not been asked to compromise with lawnessness and crime. They have Dot been asked to yield a single right. . f & f' ■ ‘ K5. ; | - ; V 0 j On the contrary the principle of arbitra­ tion is based upon justice and fairness for all concerned, and it their cause is just they have nothing to fear from the decision of a board of arbitration. The fact undoubtedly is these selfish coal owners are aiming to crush organ­ ized labor in the coal region, and they do not intend to recognize unionism by .negotiating with its representatives. They want to keep these poor toilers un. der their control so that they can pay such starvation wages as .they please, and any recognition of the miners’ union would be fatal to their purpose. Hence for the sake of carrying their point, thereby enabling them to put more millions into their own pockets, they are willing that a great disaster should come upon millions of their fellow citizens. The president’s appeal to their patrl-. otism and their humanity cannot move these mercenary men. When asked by the chief executive of this mighty na• tion. to adopt the only sensible and patrlotic course open to them as good citi­ zens, that of friendly arbitration, they insolently declare tbe government to be . a’“miserable failtire” unless it sides with them. ' Respect for law is one of the strong­ est qualities in the American character, but self preservation is a stronger law than any statute which these supercili­ ous mine owners can invoke, and even Americans will not carry their regard « for law to the freezing point. It is to be hoped that the insufferable attitude . of Mr. Baer and his aaasciatea will yet . , give way before it leads to terrible dls- k The Committee Acted Wisely. Lorenzo T.

THE FASHIONS. ” W why tbe Adirondack forests should be preserved dbe association says: . It must be realised .that a tree ia not merely food for. a. factory, but that.lt ia In very truth a factory itself—e labora­ tory for the manufactur* of pure air and pure water and a otorage battery of chemieal and physical energy indispensa­ ble for the prosecution of the varied com­ mercial and manufacturing industries which are the very foundation ot pros­ perity. In the light of such revelxtions we stand aghast at the prodigality which Maa * characterised the treatment of our forest*. ’ <• It’la claimed that the cutting dawn of our fareata furnlahea materials tor the uae of large capital and much labor. The argument is a spectoua one and seeks to conceal tbe fact that such Industrie- are dealing a fata! blow at other interests of the state employing many times the amount of capital and number of employeea. The Improvidence of such a policy carries with it the reasons tor ita own condemnation. . Tbe importance of the Adirondack pork In its relation to the supply of water, for drinking and sanitary purpose* for a large section of the state has not ade­ quately been appreciated. Forest streams carry leas * mud and silt than other streams, and the exclusion of large pop­ ulations and manufacturing industries from tbe forested area prevents the artlflclal pollution so common elsewhere. The forests, as conservators of our water sup­ ply, also bear an important relation to the subject-of fire Insurance. A proper supply and pressure of water are neces­ sary safeguards for human life and prop­ erty.

Scientists, says tbe New York Tribune, ha ve been pointing out for a long time that eating has been wholly diverted from ita primary pur­ pose (which is to sustain life) by sys­ tematically overloading the stomach and thus causing much of tbe modern ill health. Every social function at the present time includes “refreshments’’ Among the scientific men who are trying to enlighten people as to what they should not eat may be mentioned Sir Henry Thompson of England. Ina recent discussion of the food question he said: ’’Speaking In general terms, man seems st the present time prone to choose foods which are unnecessarily concentrated and too rich In nitroge­ nous and flesh forming material and to consume more in quantity than is nec­ essary for the healthy performance of animal functions. He makes very small account of the different require­ ments of the child, tbe mature person and the declining or aged person. As to the exercise of any taste In serving or the combining.ot different foods st a meal, the subject ia completely out of reach of the majority of people and Is as little qomprebended by them as the structure and harmonies of a sympho­ ny are by the first whistling boy one chances to meet on the street’’ Professor W. H. Wiley, chief chem­ ist of the department of agriculture, advocates a more general use of cere als as food and a decreased use of flesh. "It Is well known that men nourished extensively on cereals are capable of the hardest and most en­ during man”nl labor,’’ he said recently In a discussion called forth by the present high price of beef. "Meats are quickly digested aad furnish an abundance of energy soon after con­ sumption. but it Is not retained in the digestive organism long enough to sus­ tain permanent muscular exertion. Ce­ real foods, on tbe other hand, are more slowly digested and furnish the energy necessary to digestion and the vital functions in a more uniform manner. They are thus better adapted to sus­ tain hard manual labor for a long perl od of time. Everything necessary to supply the -aRte of the body and to give beat and energy to the system Is supplied by the cereals. The working­ man of this country should consider this point and should learn more and more the value of cereals as food. When cereals are properly prepared and served; they are as palatable and nutritious as meat, and their judicious use would gradually diminish the un­ due craving for meat.” the use of Dr. Pierce’s Favorit* Prescrip­ tion ia advised for all expectant mother*.

It is invaluable in that transition period when the girl becomes a woman, establishing regularity and pro­ moting die general health. It dries of­ fensive and enfeebling drains, heals in­ flammation and piceration and cures female weakness.

Of a total importa­ tion of >435,958,408 in 1870 >157329,782 came from that belt of tbe globe. In 1902 the value had risen to >679,163,649, the total from all quarters be­ ing >908,827,071. While our trade from the American continent to the south of us Is far from what it ought to be and would be with proper facilities, tbe im­ ports have advanced during this period from >116,891,104 to >221,954,007. From Asia the growth has been from >30,219,079 to >129,621,549, and only a be­ ginning has been made. The Increase from Africa has been from toss than >2,000,000 to nearly >13,500,000 and from Oceania from >8.296,469 to >14.166,887. There has been a gradual towering of the price of some of the leading articles, so that value has not kept >ace with quantity. In tbe case of cune sugar there has been an actual decrease in value while the quantity has more than doubled in spite of the fact that we produce considerable sug­ ar ourselves and import more or less beet sugar from Europe.

Organized labor has “a friend at court’’ In Judge Oliver Wendell Holmes, who was recently appointed to the United States supreme bench to succeed Justice Gray. His friendli­ ness toward labor organizations Is shown In a number of bls opinions as chief justice of tbe supreme court of Massachusetts. In one of these he de­ clared that "if workingmen may’com­ bine for getting the most they can for their labor, just as capital may com­ bine with a view of getting the great­ est possible return. It must be true that when combined they have tbe same lib­ erty that combined capita! has to sup­ port their Interests by arguments, per­ suasion and the bestowal or refusal of those advantages which they otherwise lawfully control, so long ac they do no violence.” This may not be essentially different from what any good jurist would say on tbe Mme subject, though It will be gratifying to the friends of organized labor to know that tbe new member of the highest judicial body of tbe country has thus placed himself on record. A statistical philosopher has been telling a London medical paper that he has calculated tbe distance covered by dancers In the course of an even­ ing’s entertainment and finds that a waltz of average duration la 1.000 yards in length, a mazourka about 900 and a polka 800, while a quadrille, with its four figures, covers nearly 1.8Q0. or about a mile. The whole series of dances at an ordinary ball, beginning at 10 p. m. and finishing at 6 a. m., be says, represents no fewer than 56,000 steps, equivalent to nearly thirty miles on level ground. Of course (b? n?xt step in logical sequence is to calculate how much vital energy is used up la auch an evening’s exercise and bow much machinery could be propelled by tbe force thus produced.

From every house we passed, people rushed to the doors and waved bands, handkerchiefs, and flags at us. This made us think that there was many an old soldier there who wished us a happy and safe journey. We followed the Susquehanna down to Sunbury where the north and south] branches meet. There the river is one mile wide and the great rocks project out of tbe water, reminding one of pictures they have seen of great sea serpents in a large body of water. The water is not clear, in some parts it Is brick color although most of it is a dark slate, and often you see oily substance on the surface. The Blue mountains do nqt show up along the railroad as extensively as the AUegbenys. They were beautiful al­ though we had no sunshine all day Sunday. We reached Harrisburg at 7:30 and there we found many trains waiting, all bound for Washington. It was dark and raining and I feared we would have an accident before we reached our destination, but every time our train stopped the brakeman would go some distance back to flag the com­ ing train, but they said ours was the last train. Williamsport and Harrisburg are both large cities and I should judge very pretty places. There are many colored people seen there. We reached Baltimore at 11 p. m. It is a beautiful city noted for Its beautiful women. It has a magnificent post-office and court house. We run from Baltimore to Washington in thirty minutes, arriving there at 12 o’clock p. tn., instead of 4:00 as we had expected.

He lived alone and it is stated that ugly bruises were found on his head. Up to. yesterday forenoon the sheriff bad heard noth--* ing of the rumor.

That’s all any democrat in the state asks. No one is sore because a certain candidate is not named. The silver democrats were not fighting for Sligb, or Helme, or Whiting. They wanted simply a loyal democrat, and so • long as Mr. Durand was loyal, every democrat will be loyal to him. This open declaration will give renewed en­ ergy to the democrats.” ’ If Gov. Bliss was four months ago deemed an unfit person to be renomi­ nated by his party in accordance with a time-honored custom, why is he more deserving now than he was then? What has he done? Has be repented for having signed the “ripper” measures? Has he ever offered one word of regrec for having debauched the voters of his party? Has he grown any more cap­ able in four months, or any more inde­ pendent of the forces which have al­ ways controlled him? A majority of his party four months ago was opposed to his reuomination, as his refusal to apply tbe principles of primary election reform to the contest most emphatically demonstrated. If unfit four months ago, he is unfit for the high office t-o which be aspires and for which be was naminated by methods that have been universally condemned.—Lansing Jour­ nal. Out of Death’s Jaw.

He is pledged to devote him। self, if elected, wholly to state affairs. As governor he will have nothing to do with tariff, imperialism or any fed­ eral question.

Vast waste of time, energy and mon­ ey have been caused by errors in road­ making. In many cases the loss re­ sults from running roads straight over hill and through dale, with little re­ gard for steep grades or for soft ground; In others, from making unnec­ essary or badly placed detours; in yet other Instances, from following linesfar- from materials fit for road pur­ poses. On a single trip of one team the waste may not equal tbe cost of a per­ ceptible improvement In the way, but that waste, multiplied by the number of trips that team wiy make and the product multiplied by the whole num­ ber of teams which will use tbe road, will give n surprisingly large aggre­ gate, says Good Roads Magazine. In many cases It will equal the cost of relocating, regrading or rebuilding the whole of the defective highway. Maurice O. Eldridge says truly, "Tbe right course is to call in the engineer and throw the road around the end or along tbe side of the steep hills in-. stead of continuing to go over them or to pull tne road up to dry, solid ground instead of splashing through mud and water of creek and swamp." Call In the engineer. Thus old errors may be avoided or corrected without risk of making new and costly' mis­ takes. Thtf capable civil engineer is well worthy of his hire.

In conclusion Mrs. Livermore says: Before all forms of government, all types of civilization, all social institu­ tions and all advance in education the relations of the husband and the wife make the everlasting foundation on whleh the social structure of the whole world rests. Just so fast and just so far as these relations become what they ought to be just so fast and Just so far will society be uplifted, but no faster and no farther. It is the fam­ ily and the home that, lay the founda­ tions of country, and these depend on tbe relations of husband and wife. Tbe greatness of a nation Is made by Its true men and women, who have been well born In good homes, where they have been carefully fashioned into a lofty type of manhood apd woman­ hood.

Hastings, at Hastings House, Childrente Hair. If at six months or one year of age the child's hair Is thin, dry and lifeless, it should be treated with systematic massage, using the egg shampoo. A well beaten egg in about an ounce of water should be rubbed thoroughly Into the scalp. This will cleanse the scalp and act as a tonic upon the roots of the hair. It should be rubbed in with a rotary motion, beginning In front at the forehead and going back to the crown, then forward to the temples and back and forth till the fingers of tbe two bands meet at the nape of the neck. The child’s hair must then be thoroughly rinsed In warm water and dried with warm tow­ els or in the sunlight Finish tbe op­ eration with a dry massage, and when every particle of moisture 'has evaporated, if tbe tendency of the scalp Is to dryness, rub into it a little olive oil or a simple formation of whose freshness and purity there is not tbe least suspicion. Exceeding nicety must be observed In this, for rancid oils act as a corrosive irritant and will themselves cause excessive dandruff. ’ WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 22. -America's Greatest Weekly One day only each month.

The wells of the building had reach­ ed the top of tbe fourth story, and a recent Inspection had satisfied the architects that they were strong. They were 16 inches thick, and should have been capable of supporting a much greater weight than that which is supposed to. have caused their col­ lapse. The west wall fell first, carry­ ing with It the floors and such scaf­ folding as remained to the ground. At the time of the accident 13 men were upon the upper floor, one ot them being the contractor. Mayor Samuel Pickles. They had little warning, hut eight of them managed to reach the w’lndows In the walls which stood, and other parts of the building, and were rescued when the police and fire de­ partments reached the scene. The masons at work upon, tbe west side, however, were not so fortunate, and five of them were carried down with the falling wall. One of them, Henry Giltner, of Leoni, was burled under tons of debris, and It was 1:30 this afternoon before his body was rescued from the ruins. The others, Patrick W. Coughlin. W. Thomas, George L. Van Allen and William McVey were soon taken out and made as comfortable as possible at the hos­ pital. Of those, Coughlin will prob­ ably die. He is badly bruised about tbe head, shoulders and chest, and suffered Internal injuries. The others are bruised, but not so seriously ns to cause fear for their recovery. Van Allen’s right arm is broken and bls left shoulder crushed, and McVey's scalp was partially torn off. The cause of the collapse is not known. The floors were built of wire and cement, from under which tlie false work upon which they had been laid was removed. The section of the west wall which fell Is about 60 feet long. The tax rolls of Jackson county have been returned from*the state tax com­ mission, who reviewed them. Jack­ son city has been boosted from $12,­ 583.800 to $17,044,485. an Increase of $4.4410,585, or nl>out 86 per cent. Real estate In the city Is raised an average of 50 per cent, but personal property was not given a level raise. The large holders of personal property find their assessments raised, and a reduction Is the exception. The Jackson Gas Co. Is raised from $170,000 to $295,000; Novelty Manufacturing Oo.. $53,500 to $105,000; others in proportion. AU manufacturers and business houses are boosted. Township assessments are disturbed but little. Ex-Judge E. S. Hough, recently ap­ pointed guardian of Matbias Secord, of Lapeer, has just taken an inventory of the estate. Secord was adjudged insane eight years ago, and in Sep­ tember Mrs. Secord was taken to the asylum also. The heirs petitioned tbe .Probate Court to appoint Hough guardian. After conducting bls in­ ventory, he said: “I have been called upon a number of times to aiwlbt in taking stock, but the Becord inventory Is the most peculiar of them all.

The Roman naturalists christened the leopard leof>ardus because they sup­ posed the spotted creature was the joint offspring of lion and tiger. So the name leopard, embalms ancient ignorance and, preserves it like a fly in amber. It is the same with the word rheuma• tiem Its name implies that it was sup­ posed to be a sort of rheum, a catarrhal affection, such as results from a cold. And while the treatment for rheumatism was based on that theory it was small wonder that cures were infrequent. To­ day we locate the cause of rheumatism in the blood and we drive it out scien­ tifically by the use of Doctor Pierco’s Oeluen Medical Discovery. THE MODERN TREATMENT. "Quite a number of years ago, when I was a girl at home, my father was pros­ trated upon a bed of sickness,” writes Mra P. M. Wheeler, of No. 2 Ann Place, Bradford, Penna. "He had rheumatism and a complication of troubles which baffled the skill of three of our best physicians. All through the winter months be lay upon his bed, suffering •everely st times with rheumatism in his limbs. While in this condition a pamPierce’s remedies fell into his hands. I remember of his sitting up in bed and reading it through and then exclaiming, ‘That medicine is just what I need!’ Just then a neighbor came along who was going to town and we sent for a bottle of Dr. .Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. We laid aside the doctor’s medicines and commenced giving my father the ‘Golden Medical Discovery,' according to directions. The first three days he felt worse, as is often the case. After that he commenced to gain.

And the remark was a part of the first of the extraordinary coincidences that have Induced me to relate this bit of per­ sonal experience.

Some An Appeal for Election Reform, The departments of Christian CitU zenship of the State Epworth League and the Young People’s Society of Christian Endeavor, recognizing the importance of the effortf now being made to effect a reform in the manner of nominating candidates to office, de­ sire to assist in bringing about this re­ form and for that reason unite tn this communication to the people of the state. The appeal is to all who count themselves good citizens, without refer­ ence to their party affiliations. The caucus and convention system of making nominations was adopted for the purpose of simplifying these labors, at the same time giving to the people, through their representatives, a voice in the selection of candidates. The powers thus conferred on the delegates were abused from the first. Of late the abuses have been so flagrant—the de­ parture from the original conception of the caucus and convention so complete —that there has grown up an insistent demand for reform. There is no denying the truth of this statement—that the caucus and conven­ tion have ceasecLto express the will of the people concerning the selection of candidates to office. Instead they are nominated by cliques and factious for partisan or.personal ends. Among the direct results of this domination may be mentioned: First, the building up of political “machines” in county, district and state—groups of men who make a pro­ fession or business of politics; who re­ gard public office as an article of trade and who inquire first, not what the pub­ lic good demands, but rather what is required by party expediency, or to minister to personal ambition or private gain. * Second, the disfranchisement of the great body of voters so far as the cau­ cus is concerned. The average man Is busy ,trying to earn a living. Ho has neither the time nor the talent for “working up combinations,” “making slates,” or engaging in the chicanery common among politicians. And so he finds himself Ignored at the caucus un­ less, indeed, he chooses to vote as he is told. In any event the caucus ceases to be a help to representative govern­ ment and becomes a stronghold of cor­ ruption—the source of half the ills which afflict the body politic. It is a trite saying that “no means can rise higher than its source.” Neither will a public official, as a rule, be better than the men who bring about his nom­ ination. The1' evils of the caucus and convention system are too well known to require extended discussion-. What then is proposed in the way of reform? THE PRIMARY ELECTION PLAN. In brief: First, to abolish both the caucus and convention; second, to sub­ stitute therefor a primary election for the nomination of candidates to office, the votes to be cast under the Aus­ tralian ballot system substantially ns our general elections are now held. It is obviously impossible to‘give the details of this plan here, it may be said however, that under it the average citizen may exercise his sovereign rights without hindrance. The sedtiinent in favor of primary reform must be crystallized, Honest men in all parties should acquaint themselves with the subject, Having Firwt, to done that they are urged: ___ ask all candidates for the legislature to define their attitude on this question: second,ato refuse to vote for any candi­ date wh*o will not pledge himself to aid in the passage of an adequate primary election law to apply to the entire state; third, to make use of every op­ portunity to spread accurate informa­ tion concerning this reform; fourth, to write the senator and representative from their respective districts asking them to vote for an adequate general primary election law—and this whether the person addressed belongs to the same party with ihe person writing or not. He represents all the people of the district and is bound to listen to their requests. The struggle will not be shortlived. Beyond question our freedom in poli­ tics must be dearly won. But the ob­ ject sought is worth toil and sacrifice, and there will be no turning back. The undersigned will be glad1 to as­ sist in any way possible in furthering this reform.

Michigan Central Excursions. .u.___ - RAN INTO AN OPEN SWI1 EAST BOUND FREIGHT TRAIN DE RAILED AND ENGINE DITCHED, Trains Delayed from Two to Three Hours. Third Time Engines have Visited the Same Open Switch. Monday forenoon the cast bound freight on the Michigan Central ran in- . td an open switch and was derailed just west of thel target house, blocking the track about five hours. The engine was-thrown upon Its side in the ditch at the side of the track, the tender thrown across the track and four freight can derailed. . Engineer Curry and the fireman tumped as soon as the engine began w bump upon the ties, ana escaped un­ injured. ' The Michigan Central was givep the right of way and had ran up to the ' freight depot. The train came back to put in a car at F. H. Barlow & Co.’s elevator. In the meantime the target w»s changed to allow the C.f K. &8. freight to cross the track. Tne Mich- v igan Central crew did not notice the change and consequently the en­ gine went Into the ditch. The target man, Elmer Harshberger, ' noticed that the Michigan Central was paying no attention to the target and he rushed out and waved his hand but the crew were not looking that "way and it did no good. Section men between Grand Rapid ? and this city were brought down on the 12:52 passenger train and also the * 11:55 passenger train brought the sec­ tion men between Eaton Rapids and *'* this city. In a abort time they had the cars and tender back on the track. The cars were then put In on a side­ track and the passenger trains allowed to pass, the former train being delayed about two and one-half hours and the latter train about three and one-half hours. The 4:25 passenger train went through about the usual time, and than the wrecking train began its work of raising the engine, which took about three hours after everything was'already to commence lifting the heavy engine. This caused the 6:25 east bound .pa$seqger to be about three hours late out of this station. x--‘ The actual damage to ths engine, . cars aud track, was fortunately only ‘ about 825. No special blame is attached to any­ one, but it is safe to say that the same crew will watch the target hereafter whether they have the right of way or not. Fully one thousand people visited the wreck during the day, and when the crane commenced to lift the engine fully 500 people were present to see it work. This is the third train that Las ran into the open switch at this same place. Strowbridv.e-VanVranken. . The marriage of Miss Winifred Van- ...

The prospect of a coal famine sterns to have unbalanced the minds of a great many editors and public men for the time, and they are loudly demanding that the national government shall st once seize the anthracite coal mines and run them “for the benefit of the whole people,” as one excited public speaker expressed it. This idea was ac­ cepted as the best method of settling present difficulties by the “get coal” convention held last week in this city, and endorsed by men who have always opposed adding to the already great powers of the national government. If such men are so easily thrown off their balance by a single emergency as to favor the idea of going outside of the constitutional limits of the government to find a remedy for an evil, we cannot help thinking that it is well the consti­ tution restrains them aud others from acts which would soon involve the country in a struggle in which mob law and anarchy would be the leading fea­ tures.—Michigan Farmer.

If only the joy of success were Involved, the visit of the Boer generals would be merely the final adornment of a tri­ umph. Such an idea, it Is safe to say. occurred to no Englishman, from king to costermonger, and the spontaneous tribute of admiration to these brave foe* does much to condone the firmer bitterness. It is paid that King Edward upon re­ ceiving the generals warmly commend­ ed tlie humanity with which the Boers had treated wounded British prisoners. But this is not a matter of record, though, whatever may have been the terms of the meeting on board the roy­ al yacht. It Is certain that the dignified, manly and loyal attitude of the Boer chieftains will remove any lingering doubts as to the temper of their peo­ ple, while the frankly expressed ad­ miration of the English people for a foe whose worth they have dearly learned will go far to convince the Boers that they may count upon the generosity of their conquerors. Alto­ gether England’s reception of the Boer generals Is a happy nugury for peace in South Africa. Estate of A. P. Drake; noclaims pre­ sented. Estate of H^ury Feighner; warrant and inventory filed.

MgmAomt victory la Conn., where the employees of the street car Unas struck because of the discharge of fellow workmen for aid­ ing la the formatter of a union. ffi V; “Within a few days,” writes a Naw Haven correspondent of the Outlook, “nearly two dozen men, some of whom were among the oldest and most pop­ ular servants of the road, were dis­ missed Tor the benefit of the service.' It was noticed, however, that they were men who had In quiet ways fa­ vored the organization of a union. Each morning some half dozen were dropped until the employees in a body took the bull by the horns and organized them­ selves Into a union. Their first de­ mands were for the reinstatement of their unfortunate comrades and their sight tc treat with the company col­ lectively. It was the refusal Of the company to consider these demands that precipitated the strike. Public sympathy came promptly and over­ whelming!y to the support of the strik­ ers. Mass meetings of merchants, of business men and of citizens In gen­ eral were held, and strong editorials were published in the daily -prints re­ enforcing the demands of the men. To these influences were added the vigor­ ous efforts of many of the stockholders of the company, while the aidermen be­ gan to consider the proposal of munici­ pal pwnership. The result was a speedy victory for the strikers. The company took back twenty-one of the discharged men and consented in the future to treat with Its men as a body.” Thei significant thing about the incldent whb the absolute unanimity of New Haven public sentiment on behalf <of the strikers when the sole question at Issue was their right to organize, which is quite at variance with the attitude of some employing corporations. President Truesdale of the D., L. and W., one of the anthracite coal carrying railroads, speaking of the strike, says that the ‘situation appears eminently satisfactory.” It may be satisfactory to the mine owners and the coal roads, but the people who are paying $8 and $10 a ton for fuel, with the prospect of paying $12 and $14 for it before the coming winter l« half over, are not so easily satisfied.

The final and reluctant consent of the . coal operators to settle the coal strike by arbitration must be regarded as one of the greatest victories t hat organized labor has ever achieved. Whatever [ decision the arbitration may reach, b Whether it shall accord all the miners’ [claims or not, two great principles have | been recognized by the mine owners— f the right of laboring men to organize for the sake of protecting their true and E lawful interests; and the principle of ,t arbitration as a means of settling dis­ pates between organized labor and or­ ganized capital. There can be no doubt that both these principles are founded upon reason, justice and good policy. Men whose capital consists only in muscle or the artisan's skill have the same right to or­ ganize for the advancement of their common welfare as men whose capital \ Is money, and the prosperity and happi­ ness of these toilers are no leas essential . to the welfare of all the people than are the prosperity and happiness of the capitalists. Moreover there is no just cause that ought to tear an appeal to an impartial tribunal. The rights of the •oa! operators are not In danger when submitted to such a tribunal as Presi­ dent Roosevelt has appointed, nor are the rights of the miners; and, what is equally important when considered from a national standpoint, the rights of the public at large are conserved by such submission. . Hence the agreement of the operators aad miners to submit the matters in dispute to a court of arbitration and abide by the result is a happy solution of one of the most memorable struggles that ever occurred in the industrial nother gratifying result of the conhM been to show that when public lion is in the right it cannot be sucfully resisted. President Baer and associates assumed at first an attle> of bold defiance of the public and icted with arrogant tone and inso­ ; spirit every attempt of outsiders to jg an end to the strike. Public men rarions capacities, politicians, govBts, senators and even the president e rebuffed by these lordly capital­ . Mmeddlers, and the whole country given to understand that it was no­ y’s business but their own and that f would brook no interference. And these same men have now yielded ry point for which public opinion contending, and they have done it fly because public opinion was Inttably right and tbeylraew that it right and that they were wrong. os populi, vox del has not always a a true saying, but in the case of great coal strike it has been fully Navin and Judson, three as slick poH- are today grasping at the very ^taU at ticlal bosses ss ever fixed sp b slate or the public?

From these letters it got a representative .list of answers. After reviewing these answers it says: "A single glance at this conspectus of opinion is ei igh to show that the peopie, not the ’iticians, have made the great issue of the campaign. What __ _it is there can be no doubt. It is the un­ doing of tariff injustices. For these the republican party stands confessedly guilty. Its acknowledgement of respon­ sibility is implied in its very promise of amendment. “Trust us,” republican leaders are everywhere imploring, “to set right the grievous wrongs of the Dingley tariff. ” But the answer is com­ ing back to theurfrom the people, like the sound of many waters, “Why didn’t you do it last winter? Why did you sin away your day of grace?” How deeply these questions are cutting into the re­ publican party, bow vital and prepon­ derating they are becoming in the last weeks of the campaign, and bow certain they are to be the subject of burning de­ bate when congress meets, the congres­ sional symposium which the Evening Post prints today abundantly demon- The usual number of claims have been allowed, but the claim of J.

An important amendment to the state constitution will be submitted to the voters on election day. It relates to the penal system of the state, providing for the so-called indeterminate sentence method of dealing with criminals. If the amendment is passed it will enable the legislature to enact a law providing for the imprisonment of any person convicted of crime under a gen­ eral sentence. The term of such im­ prisonment will, be made to depend up­ on the discretion of a board authorized by said law. This board will be gjven power to establish certain rules and regulations under which prisoners sentenced under the act may l>e allowed to go ou parole outside of the buildings and enclosures of the prison, but re­ maining under the legal custody of the board and subject to remlprisonment if they violate the conditions of their pa­ role. Under such a law the prisoners I would also be separated and classified into different grades, and promoted or degraded, according to their conduct. Such are some of the general features of the system which .it is proposed to make constitutional in this state. The system is not an experiment, as it is al­ ready in force in fifteen states, and so far as we are aware is working satis­ factorily. The proposed amendment is endorsed and urged by the state board of corrections, which body, with the venerable Bishop Gillespie at its head, has sent out an appeal to the voters to vote “yes” on the proposition.

A neighbor caught and threw her into a tub of water putting out the fire. The flesh was burned from her arms until she was a'pitiable sight.

They started on a run and at the cor­ ner nearthe national bank Mr. Cannom measured bis length upon the ground and the team went east on State street. They attempted to turn the corner at Hinckley's livery stable and go to their barn a^out a block and a half from there, but ran into the watering trough and came to a very sudden stop. Onehorse fell down and the other fell right over It, and in this position they laid 'or several minutes. It was thought at fij-st that they were dead, but Anally they were gotten upon their feet. One of them was quite badly bruised and tbe wagon was broken a little. Mr. Cannom escaped with a shaking up, but Sunday fell a trifle used up. . * """ " """*" I Dress Goods=Trimmings b.

WRIGHT BROS. SUCCESSORS TO PHIN SMITH Department Stores �Mrs. O. Sloan of Jackson visited the E. church Sunday in the interest of the Bui ah Farm Home, a home for ne­ glected and booseless boys, located in Leoni, seven miles east of Jackson. This home has been in operation for three and one-half years and in that time has received three hundred and xhirty-nine boys and placed many?jA them in good Christian homes.

The boys slept in separate oota with excellent Christian men to look after them both night and day. When Mr. Swift left Leoni for the beet farm he bad seventeen boys be­ longing to the home; when he returned he brought back thirty. How pathetic was {their pleading— “Mr. Swift I have no home” or “I have a drunken.father who abuses me” or “I live with people who abuse me’’and “I don’t get enough to eat, may I go with you to Qulah Home, I win be a good boy If- you will take me. ”. O! so toucblng-^-sb sad. One little fellow had no shirt; only ragged coats and pants were all he had. Many had no shoes; only the poor clothes they wore^ How their eyes glistened when they received their money and clothes —the first dollar and the first new gar­ ment many of them ever possessed. Mr. Swift after receiving his *2,000 went to Bay Springs to see what was there. He found a house which cost *40,000 to build with «4 nicely finished rooms, a nice two story barn, two large ice houses,- a dock, where steamers come up twice a day and 125 acres of land with a good orchard on Pine lake an in­ let of lake Michigan, all for *5,500, ‘What hath God wrought?’ He not only over­ rules nations but provides for His de­ fenseless lambs. Mr. Swift lacks *2,000 to finish paying for tbe place and put in steam beat. , • . He Is sending uut these little missions —the dime card—to bring back from the loving hearts and hands of the Sun­ day school children tbe much needed money and God will bless the donors, for he has said, “In as much as ye have done for the least of these my brethren ye have done for me.’Mrs. Sloan expects to visit Hastings again in the near future and give the other churches and Sunday schools an opportunity to help in this great work for the master. The Methodist Episco­ pal church and Sunday school responded nobly. 1 Herman L. Swift, manager and orig­ inator oi tbe work, commenced last February to collect money to buil^a larger home which, when ready to <jt2 £hpy with its furnishings, would cost about *10,000 afad would accommodate one hundred boys, but tbe dear Lord’ whose unsearchable providence directs tbe ways of those who are doing His work had something better in store for tbe boys’ home and opened tbe way to greater good. Mr. Swift’s attention had been called to a property in Charlevoix county but as his means were so limited he had not looked after it. His work is largely advertised in De­ troit and some of the leading men of tbe Croeswell Sugar Beet Company reside there. They extended to him an invi­ tation to take three hundred boys to Sanilac county and superintend their work on one thousand acres of beets of­ fering to meet al) expenses and give him *1,500 for his work. He said, “yes I will go for it will help me that much in my building.” They said "you do not pretend to say you will put that money into this work.” “Yes, every dollar 1 get over one dollar per week and that is more than I need.” “Well, that being the case we will give you *2,000.” He went and made a grand success. The company, beside meeting all ex­ penses, gave the boys a barrel of pea­ nuts, a half barrel of candy, box of lemons, a.large box of fire-works for the 1 Fourth, a box of bats, a box of shirts I His Life In Peril f and overalls all free and a box of shoes 1 to be sold to them at wholesale price.

She Is about 25 years old, and Is mar­ ried to a farmer. Her mother, the widow of the Springfield man, Is living •with her. Jtist what trouble came between Mrs. Smith and husband is not known, but he deserted ber, it is claimed, when the daughter was an infant. Mrs. Smith bad knows where Smith was for a long time; in fact always kept track of him after the desertion, though it is not known that any letters ever passed between them. At one time Smith was postmaster of Springfield. There are different stories as to the amount of property he left, but he was supposed to be a wealthy man, Mrs. Mullen claims heirship. The father and mother never were di­ vorced, in spite of the long separation. About 1,500 or Twenty-five Per Cent, of the Electors Failed to Get Maple Grove. Lizzie E. Mullen of Orangeville, in the supreme court at Springfield, Ill., Friday, made the claim that she was the daughter of Hugh Smith, a leading merchant of that place, and a well known horseman. The claim created a sensation there, for Smith, up to the time of his death, tpn days ago, had been a resident there for 25 years, and nobody knew that he had ever married. Investigation goes to show that the young woman’s claim to kinahip is valid, and reveals the secret which the Springfield man kept so close for many 1 His Most Intimate Friends Knowing About It. DEMOCRATS ELECT CORTRIGHT FOR SHERIFF AND WALKER FOR PROSECUTOR. lr*,n<- ____ He Kept Marriage Secret, Not Even *1.00 VERY LI6HT VOTE POLLED'I HAST,WS-LJ*ELl fiAME! ! HIS DAUGHTER PUT IN APPEAR* ANCE AFTER 25 YEARS. erald A SPLENDID PRODUCTION. An audience, which were doc slow in * rendering tangible evidence of their appreciation, greeted the excellent pro­ duction nf that stirring life drama, “Was She to Blame,” at the Grand last evening. * And the performance was well wor­ thy o5 the hearty reception it was accorded. Mr. J. G. Stuttz has written a masterpiece of dramatic sentiment with exceptional skill, surrounded it with admirable stage-settings and secured the services of a coterie of genuine arttets for its presentation. It is a strong play, accurately described by Bishop Tuttle as “characterized by dramatic power, purity of thought and sublime sentiment,’’and Mr. Stuttz and his cotnpany are to be congratulated on the • strength and artistic merit of the pro­ duction. Mr. Stuttz himself plays a leading part in the role of Elam Washington Pancake, “son* of Jefferson Adams Monroe Pancake, J.*P., of Huckleber­ ry township, State of Vermont, elect­ ed by the unanimous majority of one.” and plays it with consummate skill. The homespun pompous, albeit goodhearted, country magistrate; the ener­ getic denouncer of wrong; the uncon­ scious humorist; the genuine Yankee advertising agent and, withall, the kindly, sturdy friend through shade and sunshine, are all admirably entertwined in this cosmopolitan character, created by the author and so perfectly interpreted by himself. Mr. Stuttz pos­ sesses that marvellous bistrionia ability which enables him to enlist laughter or tears with equal ease from a sympathe­ tic and delighted audience. ’ The caste throughout is exceptional­ ly strong. The role of Diana, the her­ oine, was entrusted to Miss Shirley Nel­ son and was in good bands. The scope for brilliant ano effective acting pro­ vided by this leading part is large, and Miss Nelson was more than equal to its exacting qualifications. She was the ' recipient of repeated well-deserved ap­ plause. Miss Aggie Marlon Stuttz, who plays Hester Severn, the exacting sister and accusing witness, does so with great suc­ cess. The role is a difficult and arduous one, representing the unrelenting fe­ male martinet of home-life, and in the hands of Miss Stultz is endowed with a realism and strength which add mater­ ially to the success of the production. Lord Hurston, a typical manly Eng­ lish nobleman, is personated by Mr. J. W. Lambert, and is another excellent feature of the .production. Mr. Lam­ bert's clever acting adds much to the dramatic strength of the finale. Emma Carlton as Martha Ann Hop­ ton, James Howard as Bruno Severn, W. N. Graham as Petinan, the French butler, and others in tne company are . all worthy of more than passing notice. Suffice it to pay there appears to be no weak spot in the entire cast. “Was Si)e to Blame" is destined to an honorable position in dramatic an­ nals. It reflects much credit upon tbe author and will live long after he has passed away. It is entertaining and elevating and is a play that, once seen, will n^’er be forgotten. It is hoped that the company may visit the Maple City again,and, in event of that fortu­ nate occurrence, they can rest assured of one of tbe largest houses on record. THE CHECK HOOK CO. The Outlook is Bright for Hastings’ Newest Factory. Gordon W. Begole, tbe inventor and patentee of tbe Begole safety check­ rein hook, returned last Thursday from a ten days’* trip in Illinois, Iowa, Miss­ ouri and Indiana, in the interest of the Hastings Check Hook Manufacturing Company , of which he is secretary and manager, and is highly pleased at the success with which be met. Hte trip was devoted to visiting the large wholesale establishments and the buyers were much pleased with the hook and all placed orders for it. At one of tbe establishments that has twenty-two salesmen, the buyer called six of his salesmen in to look at tbe book and tbey all wanted to take It out with them. The buyer told them that they could and placed an order, and aI-‘ so ordered some of the high grade hooks to be especially made for their high grade harnesses, which they in­ tend to place on exhibition at the St. Louis exhibition. Mr. Begole carried with him a good many agent’s outfits and. whenTie re­ turned he was empty handed so far as hooks were concerned, but’had good sized orders. The outlook for this new concern is bright, and the indications are that its capacity will be taxed to fill orders even if night and day forces are put on. Notice. Until 6 o’clock Nov. 15, 1902, the sew­ er committee will receive bids for the construction of the Green street sewer according to specifications and profile on file at the recorder’s office. W. A.

This, considering the light vote cast throughout the state, with the exception of Wayne county, Is regarded as a very good •bowing for the head of the ticket. •The governor was cut deeply in many of the counties In the lower part of the state, however, and he ran about 20,000 behind Warner, Republican can­ didate for secretary of state. Durand carried Kalamazoo and Jack­ son counties, and returns this morning •how that he also carried Saginaw county, the home of both the guberna­ torial candidates. Durand, it appeared, •had pulled the Saginaw city ticket through with him. Washtenaw, as Shown- by early returns, is also in the Durand column. • The fight for congressman resulted In a Republican victory In afl districts except the first, which lies wholly within the city of Detroit, and the re­ suit of which was influenced by local conditions. Alfred Lucking will be Michigan's sole Democratic represen­ tative In tbe national legislature. A feature of the congressional fight was the ‘‘cleaning up” In the Seventh distrlct by Henry McMorran, Rep., Mar.tln Crocker of Mt. Clemens, the Dem­ ocratic candidate, being defeated by about 5,000.

R.® Washington, Nov. 5.—Although the returns from the doubtful congression­ al districts were slow in arriving, late Indications are that the Republicans would control the next house of rep­ resentatives by a n_.row margin. In the present house, wjth a membership sf 357, the Republicans have 41 ma­ jority. Under the new apportionment, the Fifty-eighth house will consist of 386 members, a majority of which Is 194. The 13 southern states, not counting West Virginia, but Including Missouri, havs 125 representatives. The Democrats have carried 116 of these districts and the Republicans probably five, two In Tennessee, one in Kentncky and two In Missouri, with two In North Carolina, one in Virginia and one In Alabama doubtful, accord­ ing to the latest returns. To obtain a majority In the next house it was necessary/therefore, for the Demo­ crats to score 78 votes In the north and west In this territory they have . at present 52 representatives. The ' latest returns Indicate that this jI strength has been held, with the ex- I| ceptlon of one seat each from Idaho. I Montana and Nevada, as to which the returns at this hour are Inconclusive. Adding 49 to 116 gives the Democrats 165. The returns show that they have made a gain of thr-ee In Pennsylvania, ' one In Nebraska, one In Delaware, one 1 in Wisconsin, two In Maryland, one In Colorado and probably four In New York, swelling the total to 178. This loaves them 16 short of a majority, with tbe result In five doubtful south­ ern districts to be heard from and doubtful districts In the north and west, from which the returns are as yet Inadequate, os follows: West Vir­ ginia, 2; Onio. 1,; Indiana, 2; Illinois, 2; Iowa, 1; Nebraska, 1; Kansas, 1; Minnesota, 2; Michigan, 1; California, 2, and Utah 1. a total of 21.

Double Daily Train Service The majority of the members of the anthracite coal strike commission left for Scranton, Pa„ where they will meet to begin their investigation of the con­ ditions in the mining region. The bearings will not begin until tbe formal claims of tbe miners and the. answer of the operators have been filed. The first place to be visited after leaving Scranton probably will be Wllkesbarre. The tour of the jommfsslpn through tbe coal fields in advance of the hearings will be of a preliminary character, as the same points will be visited later for the taking of testi­ mony of the miuc bosses, foremen and the miners them pelves. The towns to be visited probably will include Hazleton, Shenandoah, Potts­ ville. Tamaqua, Shamokin and Carbon­ dale. Members of the commission say they will go into the subject exhaustively, and one of them said he believed the report would be ready within two months. Mitchell day was celebrated by all the union miners «n the anthracite re­ gion Wednesday. There was a gen­ eral suspension of work. A few washeries were working, but their output of coal was very small. There were demonstrations In many of the uear-by towns and after the jmrades tbe people flocked to Wllkesbarre In large numbers to see the big I>anide there. At ShamokiD 7.000 miners, beaded by tbe Tenth Regiment band and troops, paraded tia* streets, after which the, mine workers were ad­ dressed by several labor leaders. All bUMthesH was generally suspended. ’’Mitchell day” Is the annlverxary of the close nt the last big strike. Oct 29, 1900. when the mine workers re­ turned to work after being out six weeks, the owners having granted a 10 per cent Increase in wages and other concesidons. As in the’present strike. President Mitchell then conducted the strike for the mine workers. in flouth Manitou island over the fact that it is thought the island may sudr denly disappear In;the lake. A tew days ago the members built a small boathouse near the station. After h had been completed a short time the ground about the building began to sink and suddenly tne exrtire building dropped ont'ol sdght. Capt. Lofbefg, to charge of tbe lifewaving station at Sleeping Bear point, made careM encodings and found that whet had previously beet but three water K new registered over baa made careful soundings to and about tbe island. which he has for­ warded to Washington. giving ItMS hte opinion that ebon the entire Istend will disappear. Rufus Cantrell, of Indianapolis, <hb leader of the negro grave robbers, whose disclosures have been so otartr llng. testified before the .grand jqry and implicated, he says, 16 additional physicians and undertakers, and every one of the local medical and dental colleges that have tnue far escaped scandal. He also makes the statement that one or two women embalmers will ‘bo shown guilty of complicity in the pur­ chase and concealment o* bodies. He says he has shielded these men long enough, and he is also tired of pro­ tecting the women. Doctors connected with the medical colleges of Fort Wayne, Louisville and Cincinnati will be implicated, Can­ trell says. Growers on hacienda* near Tupachuleta, Mexico, will suffer great loss from the fnct that their stock cannot procure food, the fields being covered with ashes from th® Santa Marla vol­ cano. The brooks are choked with ashes and cinders and all the neighbor­ ing ronde are covered. The coffee planters will come off better than tbe stock raisers. Investigation shows that there was no loss of life durlug the re­ cent disturbances. Reports from towns across the Guatemala border show^that the alarm was Intense, everybody fear­ ing a similar fate to that which'befell Martinique and St. Vincent.

Women who are suffer­ ing from diseases of long standing are invited to consuit Dr. Pierce, by letter, > fret.

Y. Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buf­ falo, N. Y. This offer of free consultation by letter is not to be classed with the spurious offers of free medical advice ” made by those who having neither professional training nor experience are medically and legally unqualified to give the ad­ vice they offer. Although it takes more than a diploma to make a good physi­ cian yet the medical diploma is essen­ tial as witnessing to professional study and training. It is well for women to examine into offers of "free medical advice," and to ascertain whether the offer is made by those competent pro­ fessionally and legally to give medical advice. Any one can offer "medical advice” but such advice from one who is not medically educated and qualified is not only worthless but dangerous. In a little over thirty years Dr. Pieice, chief consulting physician to the Inva­ lids' Hotel ana Surgical Institute, Buf­ falo, N. Y., assisted by his staff of nearly a score of physicians, has treated and cured hunareds of thousands of weak and sick women. Write therefore with­ out fee as without fear to Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. The effort of some dealers to sell n substitute for »’ Favorite Prescription ” as "just is good” is due to the fact that less meritorious preparations pay a little more profit Insist on having the medi­ cine which makes weak women strong and sick women well.

But in bis heart every man feels thst the old phrase expresses a fact When the wife is sick the whole fabric of home totters to its fall.

The score was « to 0, but it does not fully show Michigan’s superiority. Only once did Wisconsin have the ball in Michi­ gan’s half of the field. Three times did the Wolverines get inalde the Badgers’ ten-yard line and once within two feet of the goal, but Wisconsin’s magnifi­ cent defense saved her a beating of at least 18 to 0. The trick was turned in the presence of 20.000 enthusiastic/spectators, and tbe din made by the rooters was in cessant, and deafening at times, drown­ ing out the sound of the signals so the plays were run off with difficulty. The weather was fine, but too warm for such a bard game, and tbe players suffered accordingly. There were few delays for disability, and Michigan showed the effect of her continued ag­ gressive offense in having men laid out Sandbagged and Robbed. B. E. Trick, a traveling salesman from Logansport. Ind., was sand­ bagged Friday night at White Pigeon, robbed of $190 and thrown on the rail­ road track in an unconscious condi­ tion. He was waiting for the 11 o'clock train to return to his home. Thv train being late, be walked down the track toward tbe water tank. He was knocked down by his assailants and dragged a block where tbe men put out the switch lights and threw hte body on tbe track. He came to as the headlight shone on him and realizing his condition got off the track just as the train passed. He w«s found by the station agent and taken to the hotel. The physician found the concus­ sion on the head very bad and Mr. Trick delirious most of the time. It is supposed his assailants boarded tbe train and went to Chicago. No trace of them has yet been found. While hunting near tbe asylum -at Newberry, Chas. Richert, at the edge ot the woods near the asylum, ound the bleached bones of a human skele­ ton.

A mass meeting was held Thursday morning, the outcome of which was that the student body agreed to submit a settlement of the differences existing between the stu­ dents and faculty to a board of arbi­ tration. Before the meeting was for­ mally called to order impromptu ex­ ercises were held. The proposition of the faculty to tne students waa pre­ sented, the provisions of which fol­ low: 1. That the students should resume class work immediately. , 2. That the matter should be sub­ mitted to the old committee of the faculty to an entirely new committee, or to the entire faculty. 8. That a committee of five from the student body should meet with the faculty committee, and if they could' show cause why the sentences of the suspended students were unjust or excessive, tne sentences would be materially lightened. Furthermore, If the matter could not be settled In a manner satisfac­ tory to both parties by this arrange meat, then the mailer would be pre­ sented for the consideration of .the State board of agriculture. After considerable aiscusalon, the student body passed a motion accept­ ing the proposition of the faculty, and chose to submit the matter to a new discipline committee, which will be composed of the following members; Prof. U. P. Hedrick, Prof. F. C. Kedzle, Prof. J. A. Jeffery, Prof. W. Babcock and Prof. H. K.

Vol. XXIII., No. 28 IMPROVEMENT OF HIGHWAY ■ RUTLAND ELECTORS WILL VOTE ON PROPOSITION To Pay Their Road Tax In Money In­ stead of Labor. Petition Signed by Prominent JUen. A movement is on foot in the town­ ship of Rutland to change from the system of paying highway taxes in la­ bor to paying It in money. The stat­ ute provides that the question shall be submitted to the voters at the annual meeting on the written demand' of twelve or more freeholders of the town­ ship. In accordance with this provis­ ion Warren Foreman has circulated a petition to the townshipboard, and it " has been signed by many of the lead­ ing taxpayers of Rutland. It will re­ main for the electors to vote for or against the proposition st the next township election. The provision under which the money tax system is to be carried on are to be found in the laws of 1807, sections 4104 to 4111.' Whenever the electors of a township have determined that the highway tax shall be aasessed^n a money basis and paid in money instead of labor, the highway commissioner is required to' render to the township board at its annual meeting a state­ ment showing the improvements wh ich have -been made on the roads and' bridges.fluring the year, and the cost thereof; and tne improvements neces­ sary to be made dilrlng the coming year and the amount of tax that should be levied for that purpose, with esti­ mates of special improvements, etc., and the board is required to present this statement at the next annual meet­ ing. The.supervision of road work and the repair of highways and bridges in townships availing themselves of the provisions of this chapter, shall be un­ der the charge of the commissioner, subject to certain directory codtrol of the township board. The commission­ er is authorized to employ labor, pur­ chase material, etc., within certain limits, his accounts to be audited by the township board. The commission­ er, acting with the township board, Is required to divide the township into not less than four road districts, in each of which an overseer of highways shall be elected. These overseers are to re­ port to the commissioner any defects in the highways within their respective districts and to supervise the work therein when required by the commis­ sioner. . These are the main provisions of the law whiob it is proposed to put into force in Rutland township. The Her­ ald hopes the proposition will be ac­ cepted by.the voters, as it is undoubted­ ly a step in the right direction. The plan of assessing a labor tax upon the freeholders and “working it but” is wasteful, unbusinesslike and barr en of good results. It ought to be abandoned for a money taj system. Better still, undoubtedly would be the county sys­ tem, but if that is not feasible, the money tax system will be found a great improvement over the absurd method now in force. Tbe HerAld hopes to see the example set by the Rutland farmers followed in other Barry county townships. Nothing will conduce so much to the advancement of the farm­ ers as good roads.'

Singing by a quartet. ‘ Miss Cloud then spoke from the text; “For this cause was the Son of man manifested to destroy the works of the devil.” One has only to.read a column of the daily paper or only the headlines to find that the adversary is the god of this world, just one day’s work of the devil. The devil Is in this world on business, trying to make people think that he owns the world; he understands his business.- We need to be on the out look. We are going to reap an awful crop this winter when the- devil, Or alcohol gets into the cider that has beep made this fall. There never has been a time when so much cider has been madams there has been this fell. Hard cider in. the home is whtt will make mischief, trouble and damnation.

VanAuken, being called absence of Mrs. Calkins, eed because he always lies out when he could, ng would maraud blast a man and 11.00 A want good homos. How shall we get good homes? We have been taught that the school house holds all the good citizenship of -our country. Bat the schoolhouse alone cannot do it. Edu­ cation alone cannot make good over­ towering Christians, and only Christians can be tb6 right kind of citizens. What country ever had such soldiers as the Romans, but they are gone. Military achievements alone can not save a nation. Only Cbrist-llke princi­ ples can save a nation and make it what it ought to be, The Christian church needs to rise as a whole this awful foe, the liquor evil. There is an embargo laid on the liqor traffic but 16 don’t embargo. I believe the waV to save the world is to bring them to}the feet of Jesus Christ. We drank 15 gallons of liquor per canitu in thc> United States last year. There is more aloohol in a glass of hard ciaer than there is in a glass of lager beer and it makes a man meaner drunk. Save the boys and you will not have to work so harfl to keep them from drink. Take for your motto “For home and native land.” and never rest, no never rest, until every saloon is wiped from our country. ’ Congregation sang “Throw Out the Life-line.” Dismissed by Rev. Bullen. WEDNESDAY FORENOON. After devotions Mr. Star of Marshall spoke on Loyal Temperance Legion work. He is a graduate of the Loyal Temperance Legion at last state con­ vention at Kalamazoo.

Presentation of banner to the county making the largest net gain of mem­ bers, by Mrs. Kennedy of Jackson county, which county held the banner last year, to Mrs.-Barnum, president of Barry county. Mrs. Calkins made a few remarks on her visit to the national convention. She told of several prohibition laws of Maine, anu said there were no liquor signs in Maine. After this talk she gave a parliamentary drill. Mrs. 8. L. Jeffers, for 7 years corres­ ponding secretary, was then made a life member of W. C. T. T. For which she returned her heartfelt thanks.

Jewett, Partello, on “How Can We Best Advance Our Work.” This was a fine paper and called forth some discussion. Mrs. Cook of Marshall made a plea tor Union Signal. ’ Some thought by ndt having any cider in the home would advance out work. v Mrs. Graves spoke on tbe work with lumbermen and miners. A motion was made that the work be continued in tbe Sunday schools among them. Motion prevailed. Talk on school savings bank by Mrs. Calkins, followed by a paper on this sub­ ject by Mrs Cleveland, giving tbe testi­ mony of many businessmen in its favor. Moved that the district duplicate this department with Mrs. Eva L. Gray of Middleville as superintendent. Ques­ tions followed, answered by Mrs. Calk­ ins. "Department Work” by Mrs. Farley of Battle Creek, calling out the various superintendents present with papers, on their line uf wqrk. Mrs.. Went­ worth on “Jails and Almshouses.” She urged us to do all we could for t?be poor unfortunates housed there, and especi­ ally she advised bolding meetings and taking papers, magazines and flowers to tbe almshouses.” Mrs. Cllzbe spoke on medal contest work. Branch county has held 31 con­ tests during past year. Jackson and CalbOun counties have each held 4 conteste; Barry has held 15 and Eaton county held 13 contests. A total of 66 contests. " “Bureau of Exchange" by Mrs. Cook of Marshall, state and district superin­ tendent. .There are now 26 papers in -the Bureau of Exchange. She said we must send the best papers written in each union to the bureau of exchange and each union should have a reciproc­ ity day. “Press Department” by Mrs. Jeffers. A paper, “The Press and How to Use It.” We wish all tbe editors in Hast­ ings and through the district could have heard this paper. “The press Is tbe one great force in touch with the live* of the people. It* field is the world, and Its success thfe service of humanity. We hear a great deal in these days when societies and clubs are springing up on every band about the advantages of erganlzation, and, great as its benefits have been, they would have been impossible without the co­ operation of tbe press, for no influence is at present more persuasive than that of printers ink, and whoever fails to rate the press at its true value has but grasped a fractional part of tbe problem of Hform. We have the papers and have friendly editors but have not the women to occupythe space. The work of tbe W. C. T. U. is a part of the news of today, and there is a demand for facts concerning them. So then dear press superintendents let us set our white winged banner of truth afloat on the wings of every newspaper and may the hand that holds tbe pencil be Che hand that helps the world.” ■ Talk by Mrs. Calkins on temperance work and on narcotics. Moved that t letter of greeting be sent to Rev. and Mrs. Ferris of Grand Rapids. Motion prevailed. Invitation from Jackson county to entertain the next convention. Invi­ tation accepted. TOWNSHIP S.S.CONVEN' AN OPEN LETTER TO SUN DAI SCHOOL SUPERINTENDENTS. ‘ Read by Mra. Fred Zerbel at t McCallum School House November 1st. An open letter to the Sunday school superintendents, read by Mrs. Fred j Zarbel at the township Sundry school . q convention held at the McCallum school - ■ 3 house, Nov. 1,1002. We have met together today as a 7- ft band of Christian workers. It is oar "J blessed privilege to do something to help an the cause of Christ—something .?■ to spread his gospel, and to aid thfi / mighty force, the gospel of Christ, to - 3 enter the lives and hearts of the boys ifl and girls. These children are the men J and women of tomorrow. To all who are engaged In this work, i I extend a hearty greeting, especially ,'S to those who are called to oversee ar | superintend the great work, do I turn J with words of encouragement and sym- £ pathy. J J What is the special work of the Sun- 4 day school superintendent? Ah, itfe . J no light task that is given him or hef,-.?l —no easy burden that rests upofi thp shoulders of tbe worker. It is theACi perlntendent's place to oversee the school, to plan the work, and topuiit tersely, to do the things undone by I others, or better still, to be such an in- ; • spiration to the teachers that >11 will « do their very best and leave nothing $3 undone to make an ideal school. Ab, do you say Ahis is impossible?— 1 i to mighty a task to place before a busy -J man or woman? I answer “Yes, if you regard It as a task.” But, toy dear Sunday school superintendent, it ia . fi yours to feel it a privilege to do this work, and yours to have such equipment^ for the service that you will ' possess the boldness of Peter, the love of St. John, the faith of Abraham, the mind of Christ, and the wisdom and ;V. tact of the Holy Spirit. And now me­ thinks I hear you say "All this for me? '<i'g How may I obtain such a priceless ; legacy?” I will try and tell you. •God is no respecter of persons.” Peter the coward, became Peter the Hon, on the day of Pentesost.' “Per- , feet love casteth out fear. ” and God is -r able to make all grace abound toward you that always having a sufficiency in jfl all Chings, may abound in every good work. Neither men nor devils with all<-_•*! their ingenuity can binder you having '-t the mind of Christ if you are willing to let it be in you. Then you will have .. tbe power to stand in that relation to '■ your teachers and pupils that they will not be able to resist the wisdom and the ■ spirit by which you speak. It is scarcely necessary to say that . you as a superintendent should be ,ji«j blameless in life, and an example of Godliness, so that your appeals and ex- • hor.tations o teachers or pupils may « carry weignt. Should the question of > < I intemperance be agitated ypu should be tbe first or among tbe first to sign tbe pledge even chough you have al- ; J ready done so many times, and in every' way manifest that you have no part .’ with the world, the flesh or the devil. The mission of the Sabbath school is ji the conversion of the pupil, whether m child or.adult. This is what we are" working for. When Christ enters into > the heart, when God comes to rule over J tbe life, then tbe real object of Sunday school work is attained. It is not fin- J is bed though tbe dear ones may be brra'. 1 into ths kingdom of God, they are but'JS infants therein, they need care and > help—loving, tender care that will aid ffl them to grow up strong merr aud ; women in Christ Jesus. And as this is the chief object of Sabbath school work, of course in doing this other things are accomplished, $ A school cannot .be established and 5 maintained in a community without Iu « good influence being left upon the so- 9 cial life. Few of even those who are ■ not Christians care to live in acorn-, munity which cannot sustain a Sabbath school’ The work may seemingly be of little importance, yet in the sight of our Heavenly Father it- is blessed if it is begun and carried out with the right motive. The bible is God’s message to the . world. Is it not a blessed thought that you and I may have a hand in carrying this message to the world? Remem­ bering Christ’s example, we should not ■« grow uneasy if tbe telling must be ; | many times repeated.' Tbe result*of our work are in God’s hands. It is ours ' 9 to do his bidding and to do it with pa- a tienoe. - Then let us go on and in our work, -g Let us try to lead the young of our land | to see Christ aright—as a redeemer ! wbo died for all, and as a comforter who longs to enter into hearts and rule a our Ilves. Trusting him for all things ’« let us remember his promise: “Lo, I~3 am with you always.” Primary School Money.

The Banner is highly complimentary to those republicans who voted for Cortright and Walker. “The entire democratic strength” it says, “was centered on the candidates for sheriff and prosecutor, who had tbe united saJoon vote of tbe county at their bf^ks, and anyone familiar with Barry county politics knows bow strong the saloon element is.” This means that the hundreds of republicans and prohiMtionlstB who helped in the election of these two candidates were saloon men and is certainly very unjust to many of It also pitches into the prohibitionists l^what it is pleased to call their “inonsistency.” It says “they have ma­ rtially assisted in accomplishing just rhat the saloon element of tbe county as working for—and that was the lection of a democratic sheriff and rotecutor.” Again in accounting for !r. Brown’s defeat it says: “Hlsoponent, Mr. Cortright, was running for second term, was popular personally, cd had made himself solid with the iloon element of the county.” All these insinuations against Messrs, brtright and Walker are unfair, missading and entirely uncalled tor. If ae Banner wants to discredit these entlemen in the eytfc of the/people by ich slurs upon them and their sup­ otters it should know that such uccs will not succeed. Mr. Cortrig£t*s neterm in the shrievalty Is sufficient newer to the Banner’s mean insinutions. The duties of bls office have ten faithfully aud Impartially distarged and the splendid run which he fede shows the confidence which the xrabiding people of tbe county repose ibirn. Would tbe Banner imply that M Cortrlght’8 opponent was a model | temperance and that, his election 0Qld have been a triumph of rigbtBHmeei and civic virtue? It knows ity 'and wjprth whop Alfred Lucking takes his seat in congress.' ' ' If we look outside of Michigan there is encouragement" alio. New York state has .red need an overwhelming ma­ jority for Odell in 1900 to the vanishing point in 1902, and gains of congressmen have been made in various states. The campaign of 1904, if the signs are not misleadidg, will be fought on tbe I Issues of tariff reform and the repres­ sion of monopolies and trusts in their tendency to control the industries of the country. There is a great work for the democratic party to do tn that strug­ gle, on the side of the people; and tbe late campaign has served as a prelimi­ nary skirmish to bring tbe forces of the party into line. There ought not to be any discouragement or wavering in the opening and indecisive engagement of 1902. Rather it should nerve the forces of democracy to renewed courage and hope and to redoubled zeal and loyalty. it'has been pointed out by some of the democratic leaders, particularly by Senator Vest, that it is better for the cause of democracy in 1904 that the re­ publicans Continue to have control of congress at the coming session. The republican party has pledged itself to legislate against the trust evil. It has professed a willingness to revise the tariff. Oply this revision must be mad$ by thafriends of tbe protective doctrine. So it will be inorder |pr the republi­ cans in congress to tackle the trust evil and to try their hand at patching the sacred tariff. “Bat they will not suc­ ceed. However great the demand for legislation along these lines the party of protection will not be able to meet tbe necessities of the case. However earnestly tbe president may appeal to tbe party leaders to put through a Cuban reciproclty measure, he will be thwarted, as he was last spring, by the beet sugar ring. The republican party is not united on the tariff question. It is thoroughly committed by its past policy to the most radical protective theory and its organi­ zation is controlled by the moneyed in­ terests that are concerned in the main­ tenance of the highest protective duties possible. Tbe controlling influence of this class is to be seen in the recent an­ nouncements that there will be no tariff legislation this winter. On the qther for-Mr. Welker, the Banner Ukehas no reason to make the base initions quoted above. Everybody tinted with him knows that he is n at exemplary habits and that he discharge the duties of prosecutor 3tu fear or favor. Tbe true expl*« iff his election is that he la very lar with all crlawee of citizens and legislation. 9 tbeir esteem and confidence in Between these two factions It is very tor extant than his opponent— hat is saying nothing against Mr. iston either.

Landis of In­ diana opened the lecture course' last Thursday evening, his subject being “An Optimist’s Message. ” Mr. Landis is a new star in tbe lecture firmament aud came here with a high reputation for .oratory. We are afraid he went awav with that reputation slightly weakened, so far as a Hastings lecture audience is concerned. Tbe gentleman is a pleasing and ready speaker, to be sure. But somehow he failed to come up to the expectations of many of bis hearers. The fact Is his lecture smacked a little too strongly pf the political speech to come up toi the lecture standard.. He seemed to be unable to divert himself fully of tbe spirit of the campaign from which he so recently came. Still, In justice to the gentle­ man, it must be said that be was enter­ taining and said some very good things. Frank J.

There is nothing in the results of the late election1 to discourage tbe demo­ cratic party. It has revealed a serious split between the eastern and western republicans. Upon the question of the tariff—the east clings to the old idea of a high protective tariff, the west op­ poses the idea of a high tariff, and is surely gravitating towards the demo­ cratic idea Of a tariff for revenue only. Has tbe democratic party brains enough to give up bickering about tbe dead and buried issues and take advantage of this division among republican^? Let the democracy stand squarely by the ancient principles of the party, tbe principles of Jefferson, Jackson, Tilden and Cleveland, and in twq years the best republicans of the west will be With them. Tbe republican party has been kept alive and marcbed to victory by the idea of protection, and when it divides upon that issue its prestige and power will vanish. Tbe democratic jarty should not in the future handicap tself by opnosing the idea of expansion. Expansion has made our country what it is, and this expansion has been tbe work of the democratic party.—Ann Arbor Record. The Result. Per. UI.HW At., Bfcalfcy ac.

Tbe report of tbe national grange MllSBilllr on education made at Lan­ ding Monday, should prove interesting to the friend* of rural school*, and llkeI vise to those who manage agricultural etdlege*. The report says tbe manage* jnant of .district schools Is "unwise— | wasteful of the time and strength of i *Hldr*a and teacher*; wasteful of money; wasteful of tbe very life of the country.’’ It urges the concentration xrf country achoelt, tbe elimination of facto, the changing of the -minimum school age to seven instead ef tix. “It te bettor for the six-year-old" say* the grangers, “to make jrlends of robins, squirrels and lady-buga" than to pore stupidly over primer* and first books in Much of this criticism is pertinent. Time and money are being wasted in trying to maintain thousand* of little country schools in districts having but a handful of children. A concentra­ tion of those weak and expensive rural schools into large, centralized schools, would work advantageously to the ag­ ricultural communities, both from a financial and an educational point of View, and tbe sentiments of the nation­ al grange, so forcibly expressed give evidence to the fact that the farmers themselves begin to realize flbe need of jural' school reform. The time 1* not far distant when ’centralization, in •one form or other, will be adopted. . As to agricultural colleges the grangers’ criticisms are even more se­ vere than those upon tbe district schools. The report deprecates the ambitious spirit of agricultural colleges to follow In the footsteps of great uni­ versities and to attract mere numbers. It points out the broad field of studies along the lines that contribute to the Advancement of agriculture, as being the true mission of agricultural ool|l*ges; It calls for more men in the fac­ Nevertheless there ought to be men in the legislature of 1903 shrewd enough and faithful enough to the wishes of the people to introduce and carry through a primary election reform bill. If the republican party of Michigan fails to heed the popular will, so dearly mani­ fested by the great falling off in Gov. Bliss’ majority, it is likely to lose the next general election entirely. It re­ mains to be seen whether the leaders of tbe party in tbe state cin read the hand writing on the wall, and give the peo­ ple the reform which they are demand­ ing.

Asleep. Amid Flames. Particles. ■ On windy days, when dost fillr the air and penetrates through screens and even around closed windows, one feels tempted to anathematize it without let or hindrance. When one thinks of What the lungs inhale every minute, one wants to stop breathing. (But that Would simply add to’the world’s huge collection another little dust heap to be blown about by tbe wind*. Hence it la much better to leave off anathema and begin at the other end and seek the usefulness of . dust, says Leonora B. Halstead In the 8L Louis Globe-Dempcrat A scientist tells us that if there were absolutely no dust in the air the path of a sunbeam would be totally black. Near the surface of the earth the atmosphere is full of coarae particles which reflect all the rays and hence produce no one color. At Martinique, for Instance, the air was so cammed with them after tbe first eruption that the sun rose per­ fectly white. After the still greater Krakatoa ex­ plosion the dust was disseminated so thickly and so far that the sunsets all round the world glowed strangely for nearly three years. This came chief­ ly from the volcanic glass that was ground to impalpable powder and thrown up m*ny fifties, where it was caught by the currents of air that as the eax-th turned caused it to be com­ pletely encircled by this powdery sub­ stance. Even the ordinary sunset, however, is produced by the sun shin­ ing through different densities of vapor and dost, the particles being arranged and rearranged by air currents that while the sun sinks ihnke tbe display change with every moment, and we owe this glory of form aud color main­ ly to-dusL Where there is little dust the air is blue, and thus we get the pure tint of “sky blue.” As the dust decreases the depth of blue Increases, bo that from mountain tops or in tbe central Pa­ cific a deeper blue is seen, and balloon ascensions have actually been mada so high that tbe heavens appeared al­ most black, the veil of our atmosphere being attenuated to such a degree one could get an Idea of the absolute dark.

And now two young Frenchmen, MM. Paul Manchin and Louis Bondreux, have constructed a model of a vessel which. It Is confidently asserted, cannot sink. In all respects, says tbe New York Times, except for tbe fact that they have given a wider applica­ tion to the principles already demon­ strated effect!to-1. e., the division of a vessel into different compartments by waterproof partitions—they have struck out on new and hitherto unex­ plored lines. In tbe model which they have con­ structed there are located In the inte­ rior of the ship two rows of bl^ Iron waterproof tanks, which are to keep the vessel floating after a collision. These “floaters” do not quite reach the vessel’s bottom, and between them and the aide walls there Is u space of about four yards. If the Ship were to run against a hid­ den sand bank or rock, the floaters wonld remain Intact and undamaged even if large hol^s were torn in the main bulk. The dimensions of the float­ ers as well as their number are so pro­ portionate that even should the wattfr penetrate into other compartments of the ship the hulk would still remain floating, with the upper deck and the roofs of tbe floaters .above the water. No matter how rapidly the water was allowed to float in. the model never sank beyond a certain depth when placed on exhibition recently. Scien­ tist* and expert* who have inspected the model say that the inventors hare apparently solved the problem, at least In theory, but some of them are skep­ tical as to the practical value of the in­ vention.

For we pay practically al! R tbe taxes of Pennsylvania.” If this be £ true, then Pennsylvania is a good state F - to keep out of. Taxation, in the just i-' use of the term, is to be regarded as *’ftho duty and privilege of every E’ property holder and the attempt co I evade it’ is to be reckoned as a serious departure from patriotism and good K citizenship. In a democratic republic » like the United States, every citizen E must take a personal .interest and L cheerfully make sacrifice for the conn •• mon good. Every good citizen will re1 gard it a duty to pay bis jnst portion to| wards supporting a government in which he has as much right as any of , his fellow citizens. It would be as de­ ? grading to the humbier classes with > only a little property, to have tbe rich ^corporations pay their taxes, as it PcWbuld be to have them pay their groF eery bills and other private expenses, B■' and the imputation of the railroad ath lorney ought to,be resented as a re­ E flection upon the millions of Pennsyl- ■ i . vaniaus who are not corporationists. The fact is that nothing could be r' more disgraceful to Pennsylvania than to have .all the taxes paid by the corpo! rations. Of course such a supposition |: is absurd however. It is far more likely L that the corporations in Pennsylvania Mice those of other states not far from . Michigan, are not paying their just L share of taxes.

They gle a* well aa tbe contending parties, and those rights are not likely to be fairly considered if the case is taken from the Impartial tribunal which was appointed to hear It and settled in secrek Moreover, the great and salutary principle of arbitration for which Mr. Mitchell claimed he wm contending—a principle whieh promisee to do so much for tbe advancement of labor, will be given a serious set back by tbe proposed private eettlement. The commission of distinguished and expert gentlemen appointed by the president of the United States to hear both sides, and decide all pointe justly and fairly, will nojdoubt arrive at a de­ cision that will be beneficial to the whole cause of organized labor, just and equitable to the mine operators and conducive to future peace in the indus­ trial world. These are results worth contending for and it will be a pity if the board of arbitration shall not be permitted to accomplish them. Terrence Wood, the thlMeen-yearold son of Mr. and Mrs. Delbert Wood, residing in the third ward, was acciden­ tally and fatally shot Saturday forenoon about 11:00 o’clock by a companion, Tke re-opening of congress next Monday will attract the attention of the country once more to national af­ fairs, though that attention will not be of a very absorbing nature. The short session of the fifty-seventh congress is not expected to bring forth anything new or startling. The regular appro­ priation bills are about all that the short session is likely to act upon. True there are plenty of important matters aside from appropriation bills that are demanding i hearing before congress. Some of these are likely to be discussed during the present session but it is not thought that many of them will be voted upon. Certainly there will be no tariff legislation and the ship subsidy meas­ ure already before congress as unfin­ ished business, it Is now declared, will be allowed to sleep in committee. So it is reasonable to expect that national legislation will be somewhat tame and uninteresting during the coming win­ ter. Tbe new and policy-making meas­ ures will no doubt be left for the new congress to deal with a year from now. same age m the unfortunate lad. ‘ The boys vert out hnutlnr rabbit near the Russell iarm. south of the aitv. The Aspluail boy had a shotgun but the Wood bey did not have any. A rabbit ran into a. brush {die and the Wood boy, as boys and men have done many time*, jumped upon the brush to en­ deavor to scare it out again. The other boy was standing close by in readiness to dbcure the game. The rabbit ran out and the Wood boy jumped off the brushpile in front of the gun just m the Aspinall boy pulled the trigger, receiving the full charge, wad ana all, ipt his back about one inch above the' left kidney. It penetrated his stomach and his intestines protruded. Realizing what bad happened the horrified boy covered the unfortunate companion with his overcoat and started across the field to where some men were hunting to get assistance, which was secured. They then returned to where the unfortunrte boy lay. Seeing that immediate help was necessary Fred Giddings, one of the men, wentlo the home di George Crpnk and had him get his rig and tatce tbe boy to his home. As soon as they arrived at the boy’s home, Dr. W. H. Snyder was summoned. He immediately went but found there was no possible chance for th^ boy to recover. He passed away about 5:00 o’clock. He was conscious all the time and said “Don’t blame Charlie, it was my fault, not his.” The Aspinall boy, a nice little fellow, a pupil in the ninth grade, is heartbroken over the affair, and his parents are also greatly grieved. They, as well as tbe parents, brothers and sisters of. the deceased, have the deepest sympathy of all in their affliction. Terrence Wood was born April 23, 1879, in Amble, Montcalm county, and with his parents came to this city about three years ago. He was a bright littie fellow anq beloved by till who knew him. Funeral services were held at the house Tuesday afternoon at 2:00 o'clock, conducted by Rev. Geo. Bullen. The seventh grade pupils attended the funeral, six of the boys acting as bearers. Beautiful floral tributes were sent by the pupils of Miss Lamb’s, Miss Jewell’s and Miss Fuller’s grades. ALL RUN DOWN. Pleasant Social Event.

The evening was spent in lively reminiscence of good times spent during the week in the Capital city, and in games. A delicious menu was served, which bad been pre­ pared by the skillful hands of the host­ ess. Immediately after, Dr. Lathrop in a happy manner presented the following toast, which was responded too in happy approval by all the guests: Our genial host, the lady who on our “Trip to Washington” was tbe life of our party—whose lunch basket, filled to overflowing with good things when we started, was always open and never empty: who was the vanguard of every excursion—whose car was always in sight (no matter which way it was go­ ing); who was always ready for sight seeing and never “too tired,” always happy and contented, rain or shine— ‘‘Our boss entertainer.” Charles Rose Arrested.

Middleville came down with a good crowd and a team made up of seven of the local talent and four out­ siders. A large crowd was present and enjoyed the sport immensely. At first a dispute arose to the eligi­ bility of the four new men but at 2:45 E. m. the game started with Hastings' ick off. Middleville used these four men ex­ clusively to carry the ball for them and their weight and experience told heavi­ ly but our boys fought every inch of the ground ana twice saved their goal from danger but the third time the referee gave Middleville four downs or in other words allowed them to retain possession of the pig Skin when they had not made the necessary five yards in three down and as our boys had held for the necessary downs it was a bold robbery but the referee allowed it to stand. With two minutes yet toplay the ball was in Middleville’s possession on the 40 yard line. Score first half, Middleville 5, Hastings 0. Jack McHugh, who is somewhat of a stranger in this city but has worked a • few days in several factories, was out with “Spirits” Frumenti (not a strang­ er) last Saturday night, and together they were having a glorious time. The old boys seemed inseparable. When one wanted to indulge "in a fistic en­ counter the other wanted to fight. Between 11 and 11 o’clock Frank De­ Coursey went to Barnaby's restaurant for an oyster stew. Jack and "Spirits” followed him into the restaurant and nouimenced abusing him. As Jack had been there before several times during the evening, the proprietor, Chas. . Barnaby, ordered him out of the place as hs didn't propose to have anyone around interfering with his business or trying to get into a scrap. Before anyone realized what was go­ ing on, Jack slapped DeCoursey’s face, and was coming after him again. De­ Coursey asked and was granted per_• mission to protect himself which he proceeded to do by laying the provoker upon his back. By this time Mr. Bar­ naby was on the customers' side of the counter and assisted Jack out of the place. This made Jack exceedingly wroth and with a cuss word on his lips he en­ deavored to land his fist in the proprie­ niiC nr UAQTIalRQ UII2TI CQQ tor’ll' face, but, instead of doing so, UHL Ui ilfluliliUd nUJi LLIiv struck the heavy plate glass window, making it look as though Dewey’s fleet had been bombarding the place.

Mr. DeCoursey sought Sheriff Cortright and in a short time Jack, who gave a different name to the officer, was in comfortable quarters at Cortright's hotel, but it was nearly 2:00 o’clock eefore he was quieted down—he was cd the verge of d t—and it took considerable "bromo” to get him in shape tk> retire. Monday evening he was taken before Justice Walker, where he plead guilty to the charge of drunkenness, ana was fined, including costa, 813.06, or twenty days in jail. He chose the latter be­ cause he had to. Fine Concert By Home Talent. The only thing lacking to the com­ plete success of the concert given at the Presbyterian church Tuesday evening, under the direction of Mr. James Troxel, was the weather, and that was simply abominable. But in spite of . rain, sleet and slush, the church was well filled and those who braved the weather to hear the concert were well repaid for their pains.

The fall meeting of the Barry County Teachers’ association was held in the court room last .Saturday. The day be­ ing stormy the attendance was not up to the usual mark but the proceedings were nevertheless interesting and . The forenoon session was largely de­ voted to the subject of reading. The discussion of several phases of the sub­ feet was lead by Miss Louie Barnum, Wife Gertrude Hampton aad others, Has Recently Built a Large Addition to His Store and Carries an Immense Stock. There is always a pride and satis­ faction in the minds of right thinking persons in seeing the steady progress and success of a man who by his merits and enterprising spirit deserves to suc­ ceed. Hence it is with pleasure that the Herald records the success and achievements qf one of Hastings' lead­ ing merchants, Fred L. Heath, the druggist. As is well known to our readers, Mr. Hcatl? has been building an addition to his store and now has as commodious an convenient a place of business as one could wish. The store is 110 feet in depth and is filled from front to rear with a first-class stock of drugs and kindred goods, wall paper, books, etc. He has put in a new and handsonie pre­ scription counter, the work of L. H. Evarts of this city, and rearranged his extensive stock in such a way os to make it very much more convenient to take care of his big trade than ever be­ fore. In the rear end of the store, which, by the way, is as well lighted as the The Ideal Entertainers are Coming. “If a play leaves its audiences better, happier, gentler, and more alive to the higher things of life, it has accomplish­ ed its best possibilities”.—Joseph Jeffer•pn. . With the above quotation for their motto, the “Ideals” are out again; this ’ time on their fifth antrtiel tour, and with twelve of the best companies possible forthem to get together. The people behind this proposition are not in the show business for what they can get out of it. They are there for the purpose of building up something that wilt de educational, refining, And at the same Lime entertaining. They plead guilty to many errors in the past,and at the same time, lay clalm to having a record never equalled by any organiz­ ation in the world that is seeking simi­ lar patronage. Their books show to the close of last season, an expenditure of 8103,13^,0". The promoters of the company are backing a theory, that any live community will in time support good talent, even when they retuse to support poor talent and they are prov­ ing their theory to be true, for in the four years, their average daily receipts Verdi what it was the first crept upto double year, while the promoters hevea worn never to take a dollar of profit oqt of the business, but to put every penny back lor the improvement of the enter­ tainments, yet they do not seek patron­ age on .the plea of charity; on the contrary they publish in advance the names where they are to appear before ©oming here and invite everybody to write to those towns and ascertain just what they aredoing. “The people can do no greater kindness than to with­ *hold ’ ’ suppori .rt if our entertainments lack particular”, is the way merit in any ai they put it.

SECOND HALF. front, Mr. Heath has his wall paper department, although the wall paper shown represents but a small part of I the great quantity he keeps stored on the second floor. Mr. Heath has built up the largest wall paper trade in Barry county, it being no unusual thing to see customers in his store from three or four towns at a time. Now that his facilities have been increased he Intends to carry a larger stock of paper than ever. , Mr. Heath commenced his career as a cleric’for W. H. Goodyear in 1878. After working for Mr. Goodyear about three years and for a time at Middle­ ville, he accepted a position in the Central Drug Store, Muskegon, at that time one of the largest prescription drug stores in the state. Here he had a large and valuable experience, espec­ ially in the prescription department. He started in business for himself tn Hastings in 1888, and by strict atten­ tion to the demands of his custorabrs, up-to-date hustling methods, and fair dealing, he has built up a business of large proportions. HLs ambition is to Jiave the largest and best assorted stock ofhny town of the size of Hast­ ings in the state—a worthy aim which he will surely reach if he has not already done so. In order to accomElish his purpose he not only conducts imself in a way that wins popularity । and business, but also surrounds him[ self with a corps of clerks of the same character, ana by fair and generous treatment usually keejx? Ujem in his service for a long time, thus enabling them to become thoroughly in touch with the business in ail its details. Hastings substituted four men to counteract the weight of the four “ringers" in the Middleville team: Messrs. Doo Smith, Jim Matthews, Will Shu Iters and Jim Waters. These four stopped the line plunges of the ringers and when Hastings got the ball it was a grand march to the the Mid­ dleville goal after 14 minutes of play. Hastings oaoiuKo planted yiouvw the vuu ball lhmj behind ucmuu .uiuMid­ evllle’s goal. n Score 5 to 5. At this dleville's >int Middleville threw upt) up the game, i point rby, nobody but they knew as they Why, had plenty of “sube” on the side lines. The excuse given was that one man was injured. Hastings certainly hid Middleville “all in*' and’ the score would have been awful if they hadn't quit. The receipts of the game were 845.20 Expenses, 84.95. This was divided on a basis of 60 and 40 per cent. While our boys feel that Middleville exceeded the agreement for the game the fact that four men from dotalde col­ leges should be brought into a purely country team is rather a hard one for decent atheletlcs ana it's too bad Mid­ dleville can't keep ber record clear.

Under what is called the old style the Julian calendar assumed the length of the solar year to be 365*4 days, whereas it was eleven minutes and a few seconds less. This annual error accumulated as years rolled on and be­ gan to be fully recognized about the beginning of the sixteenth century. The Gregorian calendar, or new style of writing dates, was first introduced In the year 1582, and ten days were then struck out of the calendar. Oth­ er regulations were also made—name­ ly, that one day more should be drop­ ped In each hundredth year which was not after 1582. In _ a , fourth , , hundredth ,, , England the old style was directed to be discontinued and the new style Introduced in the year 1752. The change of style was effected In the following manner in September, 1752: Eleven days being the difference between dates written according to the two styles, old and newt the day after Wednesday.

Ono proposition advocated has been the reduction of the tariff as • means of reaching the evils of. the trusts which fall within the category I have described. Not merely would this be wholly ineffec­ tive. but the diversion of opr efforts in such a direction would mean the aban­ donment of all intelligent attempt to do away with these evils. Many of the lar­ gest corporations, many of those which should certainly be included tn any proper scheme of regulation, would not be offected in the slightest degree by a change in the tariff, save as such change Inter­ fered with tho general prosperity of the country. The only relation of the tariff to blk corporations as a whole is.that tbe tariff makes manufactures profitable, and the tariff remedy proposed would' be in effect simply to make manufactures un­ profitable. To remove tho tariff as a punitive measure directed against trusts would inevitably rsault in ruin to the weaker competitors who are struggling against them. Our aim should be not by unwise tariff changes to give foreign prod­ ucts the advantage over domestic prod­ ucts, but by proper regulation to give do­ mestic competition a fair chance, and this end cannot be reached by any tariff changes which would affect unfavorably all domestic competitors, good and bad alike.

I can certainly recommend them to anyohe suffering with palpitation of tbe ’heart or indigestion. .mple o i Istra tic On July 4 last, on the one hundred and twenty-sixth anniversary of the declara­ tion of our independence, peace and am­ nesty were promulgated in the Philippine Islands. Some trouble has since from time to time threatened with the Moham­ medan Moros, but with the late Insurrec­ tionary Filipinos the war haa entirely ceased. Civil government has now been Introduced. Not only does each Filipino enjoy such rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness os he has never be­ fore known during the recorded history of the Islands, but the people, taken ns a whole, now enjoy, a measure of self gov­ ernment greater than that granted to any other orientals by any foreign power and greater than that enjoyed by any other orientals under their own governments save the Japanese alone. Wo have not f;one too far In granting these rights of iberty and self government, but we have certainly gone to the limit that in the In­ terests of ,the Philippine people themselves it was wise or just to go. To hurry mat­ ters. to go faster than we ore now going, would entail calamity on the people of the Islands No policy ever entered into by the American people has vindicated it­ self In more signal manner than the poli­ cy of holding the Philippines. The tri­ umph of our arms above all the triumph of our laws and principles, has come soon­ er than we had any right to expect. Too much praise cannot be given to tho army for what It has done tn the Philippines, both in warfare and from an administra­ tive standpoint, tn preparing the way for civil government, and similar credit be­ longs jo tbe civil authorities for the way in which they have planted the seeds of •elf government in the ground thus made ready for them.

Black Cannon and Powers rose and howled with joy when their striker brought in tbe card, a moat official card—"Mr. Kido Mabuchl, the Japanese Legation, Washington, D. C." In the big school in Massachusetts where Mabuchl as a boy had studied the mysteries of Amer­ ican civilization, with Cannon and Powers as his chief instructors, he had struggled through a course of foot­ ball. He now required -all the power of muscular resistance thus gained to withstand the onslaught of these friends of his school days. "You monsters! You dragons of America!” he cried, falling backward tnto the only armchair the youngsters’ "tout up, you lovely Uttle brute, and cetue to my booom afalu! ain't be nreet.

It’s you wbo’ve got to do the telling, Kldo!" they cried together. “We've nothing to tell." Cannon added. "When you left for the war. we got through West Point somehow and are existing among cowboys and Indians on these broad, unlovely plains. It. was good of you to come to see us, as we could not come to Washington, but you always were a decent Little speci­ men of foreign bric-a-brac. Now tell us about yourself." "It is not much to tell.

The war ended, and my government sent don, St Petersburg, Berlin, Vienna and Paris?’ “How I should have liked to do Paris with you! There’s a French count, an ex-officer, here stopping with the colo­ nel. I suppose you met heaps of them Ln Paris? He’s studying America too. Count — Count •—what’s his name — Count”— “Count Dlceauclbass I” cried the striker, • opening the door of the young officers’ sitting room to usher In an elderly, wax. mu stached Frenchman. Powers and Cannon advanced to greet the t new visitor. Kldo Mabuchl rose slowly, bls yellow brown face turning itray. “Count d’Elsenbas,” Powers said, “we are honored. Let me Introduce to you Mr. Klbo Mabuchl of the Jap­ anese legation and an old school friend of ours. Wo were just telllpg him it was curious that you and he, both studying us savages for the benefit of your governments, should meet at such an out of the way hole as Fort Drake." The count made a rush of effusive greeting at tbe Japanese, who coolly took his band. “Mon Dleu, gentlemen! You afford to me surprises the most welcome." “Yon know each other, then?" said Powers. “Know!" crltxl D’Elsenbas. “We are comrades since' long time!” “Yes," said Kldo, and tbe laugh was gone from the eyes which had sparkled on his old friends, "we met in Paris.” “And are ravished to meet in Amer­ ica!" cried the count with a band on either of Mabuchl’s shoulders. Cannon and Powers looked at each other In amazement. It was impossible not to note the 'dearth of delight In Fldo's face. "On this hot afternoon, when I had nothing to do, I remembered our last game at pokalr, gentlemen, and I said: ’Ha! I shall go and have my r-revanebo from tbe youthful giants, Messrs. Can­ non and Powalr.' May I? For Mabuchl at baccarat, ecarte and the games of Paris. I know, but pokair’’— “I pray—excuse me." said Mabuchl gravely. "I no longer play cards." "Ah!

Count, let me offer you some­ thing cooling. Kido—why your glass is full yet!" “I don’t touch anything," said Ma­ buchl gravely. “Since Paris?" again tbe Frenchman asked and mocked. “Since Paris,” said MabuchL “Ah, I see, you want not to play po­ kair. You have much to talk. Au revolr, my American giants. We shall meet at the colonel's. Mabuchl. shall we meet?” "We shall meet," said Kldo. rising and bowing with grave oriental cere­ mony. The school chums stared on Kido. "What the devil happened to you in Paris?” Cannon cried again. “Why did that Frenchman grin in that meas­ ly way, as if—as If be owned you? Speak, you little lump of bronze. What mischief did you have tbe nerve to get Into without Powers and me to haul you out again Y' In the corner of the colonel’s broad veranda that night Count d’Elsenbas spoke in French briefly and coldly to the little Japanese. "I corneaed you here on purpose,” he said. "I have given you a year, and you are ffbt ready. Well, tomorrow you must make good your promise or I shall hand .these notes in my breast pocket to your chief." Kldo Mabuchl went home to his bunk, hastily fitted /np In Cannon’s room, but slept not at alh In the morning when his chums came In from stables and early company trills they found the attache sealing letters on which be had been very busy and which he now put in his pocket He was very amiable, very cheerful and very calm. It Is something to have had ancestors of oriental blood and oriental faith; It is something to be able to say when the hour has come: “Is it then, time? Good.

The hour before sundown is admira­ ble for target shooting. The four went down to the range Late in the after­ noon. The count had been bragging a little of his skill with a rifle, and Can­ non and Powers had coaxed the Jap­ anese into making a match with him.

L—-When the house convenes to enter on the final session of th? fifty-seventh congress a perfect deluge of bills dealing with the trust question In all Its phases will be thrown into the legislative hopper.

In order to preserve this beauty of youth, Yo retain the charm of sweetness and freshness which belongs to maiden­ hood, the prerequisite is to understand that the chief foe of woman’s beauty is womanly ill-health. Young women are often very careless of themselves. Tbe temptation of the dance, or of the sleigh­ ride overrules their prudence, and the result is suppression and perhaps irregu­ larity. This is only, the beginning of • worse evils, and yet this alone is suf­ ficient to steal the. freshness from the • face. The womanly -health should be protected wi'-h the utmost care and the first symptom of derangement or disease should be met by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. • "I will always recommend Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescriptiotf, ‘Golden Medical Discovery * and ‘ Pleasant Pelled;’ for they cured me when doctors and other medicines failed,” writes Mrs. Mary E. Lewis, of Tanner, Gilmer Co., W. Va. •For fifteen years I suffered untold misery. When I commenced taking Dr. 'Pierce’s medicines, I had given up all .hope of ever getting well. I could not lie down to sleep, and everything I ate would almost cramp me to death. Was very nervous and could hardlv walk across the room.

NEW SUGAR BEET REGION. Beet Tbe center of the sugar beet industry in Kansas this year is Lakin. Kearny, county. Laet year the big end of the crop came from around Garden City. Finney county. The soil of Finney county is no less productive of die sugar beet than its neighboring county west, but last year the farmers of. Fin­ ney county were helped by bankers, merchants, lawyers, doctors and others who bad money, twhile In Kearny only men who farm for a living planted beets. The Garden City men paid for planting small lots of ten or twenty acres, and thelr/object was to show to tbe world that the soil of that region is adapted to the growth of the beet Ono season's experiment proved tb's, aad now only farmers who are. in the business for.a livelihood uro engaged in the industry. F. D. Coburn, secre­ tary of the state board of agriculture, has received from Garden City some specimen beets grown this year, and he says they are only additional proof that the upper Arkansas valley in Kansas is a sugar beet district. ‘^Phe sugar beet has come to stay in Kan­ sas.” ho says, "and in a few years it will be grown in ail the counties of the southwest where the water <fm be turned on. This year the acreage is not so large as last year owing to the failure of the Garden City business men to repeat their experiment, but the same farmers who planted last year and more have planted-this year, aud if these palftgrown beets I have here are any eign-.the prospect must be encouraging.”—Kansas Farmer. Th: success of the potato crop depends much upon the vigor, trod condi­ tion of the seed potatoes. Some grow­ ers have adopted the following practice with excellent results: When the pota­ toes are dug. those which ore to be used for seed are stoved in a dry, dark shed or barn until about the 10th of November. Just before freezing weath­ er rots lik.the potatoes are carefully sorted, and those which show the slightesf signs of decay are rejected. A layer of straw from eight to ten Inches thick is spread on the ground and the tubers placed upon this straw. The plies should not be made too large. The best results nre usually obtuined from mounds three feet wide nt the base and piled up In ridges as high as convenient. A <•overtng of straw is placed over tbe ] situ toes, mid this Is followed by a layer of noil from six to eight inches thick. but before severe weather sets in more st.11 is added, and when the severest weather Is at baud more strew or strawy barn manure is added. The alm is to cover gift'hially ns the cold increases. This nx thod of storing j»otatoea seems to winter them much better for seed than when they are ptac&d in root cellars or when they are stored in mounds immedintely after they are dug, says American Gardening. Low Truck. For Baulina Fodder. A low truck for drawing (odder corn from the field la made from the front part of an ordinary farm wagon. A atrong oak roach about a foot long re­ places the longer one. To the rear end of tblB |a bolted an iron clevis that holds n crosspiece, as shown in the cut from the Farm Journal. For the plat- FODDER CORN TBUCK. form two iMdea fifteen feet long ar used. At two feet from the upper en< bote® are bored and. they are pinned u tbe croosplece mentioned above. Hr ends resting on tbe bolster about two Inches, from the stsudards. Tbe rear wheels arc fifteen inches in diameter, jAd on an iron, axle, tho wliole taken froiD farm machinery, . Belnf so near tho ground, it is best to liuard up plan or fruit dbtixq house rectlon of the current is shown by tbe arrows. The large dots under the fire box show the ends of tbe grate bars, made of any old scrap iron that will reach acrons Into the earth on each aide. They are not absolutely essential. A'single one just below and inside of tho fire door will do, or even a stick of green wood, renewed occasionally, will answer to hold up the ends of the wood. Tbe fire door may be a large sheet of tin or slab of an old stove, which may be lifted away to put in fuel. Tbe fire box is made by digging a trench into the earth eighteen or twenty inches wide, about tbe same in depth, and In length proportionate to the length of the building, say half way; then it is made shallower, but broader, back to the stovepipe, which should be at least four feet long—six would be better. Over this trench are placed thin, flat stones, old stove slabs, boiler plate or anything of the kind, all cracks being well luted with clay. This is represented In the cut by the line under tbe words “air Inlet,” just over which is another line represent­ ing the top of a flue made of sheets of tin, old stove slabs or thin, broad stones, held up on each aldo by bricks set edgewise or stones, all well luted with clay. This flue should bo about four Inches deep and no wider than the fire box, widening with the flue leading to the stovepipe. If I ever bitild another. I shall make the whole front end a door. The traya can then be put in and taken out more easily and readily. No door is shown in thia ent It is over the fire door. The flue between the house and cbixnney should be at least three times as roomy as tbe inlet flue. The top tray or set of trays Is pushed against the back wnll, the next against the front wall, so alternating till all are in, the bottom one back, and all trays reaching from one side to the other to completely fill the space. Around the ends and between ore spaces of eight Inches. Tho stovepipe, heating the air around It and also act­ ing something like a jet pump, causes a strong draft, bringing the air in over the fire, where it Is heated and passes rapidly back and forth over tbe trays, where it quickly carries off the water that tho beat brings out of the fruit. It will dry it out in six hours easily. Okra, er Gumbo. Okra or gumbo k universally grown in the southern states and until very recently was generally propagated from home raised seed. Being em­ phatically a southern plant, of course tbe home grown seed arc the best. However, hew varieties arc occasion­ ally Introduced, and these must be purchased of our seedsmen. The Tali Growing variety is the old standby, but tbe newer varieties. Density, Dwarf Green, Dwarf White. French Market, Perkins’ Mammoth Pod and White Velvet, have been Introduced and. thoroughly tested. While in yield bone is equal to the Tall Growing, yet the Velvet Dwarf White and Densi­ ty are earlier and perhaps more deli­ cate in quality. A succession would include some of tbe earlier varietfes with the Tall Growing, planted tatter, to furnish a full supply throughout the Bummer and up to frost.

MICHIGAN HEALTH OFFICIALS. Sixth Annual Conference in Arbor, Jan. 15 and 16 Ann -• The sixth general conference of the health officials in Michigan will be held , at the 'state laboratory of hygiene in Ann Arbor on Thursday and Friday, Jan. 15 and 16, 1993. The objects of the. conference are: The presentation of facts, and the gen­ eral comparison of views, on subjects relating to public health work, by the health officers and (other delegates of local boards of health among them­ selves, and with the members of the state board of health. This will not be a medical convention; it is for all health officers and delegates, professional and non-professional. It is hoped that all phases of public health work will be dealt with by persons act­ ually engaged in the work, and propos- ’ itions discussed which will be to the . advantage of every community repre­ seated. This conference of health, officials is held for the benefit of every locality in Michigan. It is hoped that many local­ ities may have delegates there, thus se­ curing the most direct benefits. Every slate and local officer will prob­ ably learn much that will enable him to do better service in guarding the public health. It is believed that any city or village can legally 'and properly send a dele­ gate. It is hoped chat many townships □ot too distant, and even distant ones if specially exposed to the introduction ana spread of disease, may each send a delegate. . . The papers and discussions in the ‘ health officials' conference will be of sufficient practical importance to the delegates, in future work in their several localities, to well repay the ex­ pense incurred by their localities in sending them to this conference. Representatives from the United States government are expected from Washington to be present, and to aid toward the success of the conference. VERDICT AGAINST C , K. fit S.

The evening’s program was very fittingly closed with a piano solo, “Heather Bells,” Runkel, by Miss Carrie Stebbins, showing taste and finish in execution to a remarkable de­ gree and to these add breadthjmd pow­ er of tone, and a wonderful depth of feeling and fine technic.

Of immense impor­ tance are the conferences pow in progress between the President and senators on this subject The con­ ferences deal with the unwillingness of the Senate to attempt seriously to do anything at this session of Con­ gress. The House is practically cer­ tain to meet the popular demand and pass a bill for the future regulation of corporations doing an Interstate busi­ ness, but a palsy has overcome the movement to meet the trust question so far as senators are concerned. Consults with Leader* Among those with whom Mr. Roose­ velt has talked are Senators Hoar of Massachusetts, chairman of the com­ mittee on judiciary; Hanna, chair­ man of the Republican national com­ mittee and O. H. Platt of Connecticut, a prominent member of the committee on judiciary. He will also have a con­ ference with Senator Spooner, who by common consent holds the office of "harmonizer and legal adviser in the Senate.” Needs Co-operation. If the President can get the party co-operation of’ these four powerful senators he will undoubtedly the Senate from its present apathy and secure trust legislation before Congress goes out of office on March _ ._ 4. These influential senators are all strongly Inclined against trust legisla­ tion at this time, but for different rea­ sons. which each frankly gives. Sen­ ator Hoar takes the position that there Is need for changes In the present laws, but that the question is so com­ plicated It cannot be solved at a short session of Congress. Would Upset Buslnes* Senator Hanna maintains the atti­ tude that trust legislation of any sort Is likely to work as much harm to the business Interests of the country as the tariff legislation would. Senator O. H. Platt regards the Sherman anti­ trust law as a very thorough piece of legislation and Is Impressed with the constitutional difficulties in the way of putting into operation any additional legislation. His policy appear- to be, "Go no further now." Senator Spooner believes the only way in which state corporations, even though they do an interstate business, can be controlled by the federal government further than now is by the adoption of a con­ stitutional amendment. Senators Introduce Bll‘- to Repeal Timber and Stone Act. Washington, Dec. 8.—Land frauds In Nebraska and other western states which President Roosevelt 1s fighting have led to the Introduction «f bills by Senator Quarles of Wisconsin and Representative Powers of Massachu­ setts repealing the timber and stone act, tho desert land act and the com­ mutation tlause of the homestead act The frauds are made possible by vio­ lating these laws. Seventy million acres of public land have passed from government Into private control dur­ ing the last five yean. Millions of acres have been absorbed in west­ ern states, where there has been no corresponding Increase tn population. Oklahoma and the Dakotas are not­ able exceptions, as the immigration of homeseekere into these states has been large. Cattle men and sheep men, financed by their local banks and through the packing-house com­ binations In Chicago, are hiring per­ sons In droves to file homestead, tim­ ber and desert land claims along their illegal fence lines. Every person fil­ ing a claim for that purpose violates the law, but the laws have become a dead letter. WIRELESS TELEGRAPHY. Satisfactory Trials Conducted B tween Washington and Afihapelia. Washington, Dec. 8.-— sages are being daily trai w Lted by wireless telegraphy between the Washington navy yard and the naval academy at Annapolis. Between these stations, thirty miles apart, ex­ periments have been conducted for two months by a board of naval offi­ cers, and the results which have been obtained during the last few weeks are highly satisfactory in many respects. The important development In tbe trials Is that the Interference by stray currents of electricity generated by electric machinery in the navy yards here and in the shops at Annapolis have been overcome In part This gives promise that even better results will be obtained when the systems now in use are tried at sea, where there is not ordinarily so much Inter­ ference as on land.

THOMAS BRACKETT REED DEAD AT WASHINGTON Former Speaker Succumb* to Attack of Appendlcltla and Chronic Bright’s Disease. Washington, D. C., Dec 8.— Thomas Brackett Reed, former Speaker of tbe House of Representatives, who had been 111 at the Arlington for four days, died Sunday morning at 12; 10 o'clock. Though he was conscious until within about two hours of his death, his mind was not clear, and he passed away without recognizing his wife and daughter, who were at his bed­ side. They were prepared for the sad event by the statements of the physi clans early Ln the evening that there was little hope for his recovery. In spite of heroic treatment of sal­ ine 'nJoctiohb and the administering of oxygen gas. the patient tailed to Im prove, ar.d it became apparent that he could not recover. Uraemic coma, resulting from uraemic poisoning, was the immediate cause of death, but Mr. Reed's Illness was traceable to chronic Bright’s disease, which was brought to the surface by an attack of appendicitis.

Fitfully It showed, as If in and Frank was to spend the week a gully or among rocks, and on the with them. soft grass she drew closer without disNaturally the girl had been looking forward Impatiently to this visit of her lover. Distances in those days were Immense, and the only means of travel was the horse, so that the young peo­ ple did not see each ether very often, and Milly was almost counting the hours that must elapse before his ar­ rival. On Christmas eve she stoed in the twilight at the door of the rude house, and watched anxiously for Frank's coming. He was late, fcr she had ex pected him since ths morning, and these were the days of the bush rang ers. If Frank had been waylaid by them, she thought, with a shudder, there would be little merrymaking for The Bushrangers Gift Milly stood there fcr some time, shading her eyes with her hand and peering in the direction from which she expected her lever to appear. The sound of fast-failing hoofs rapidly nearing her caused an expression of joy to cross her face, still mingled with a little anxiety, for Frank had not given the joyful “Coo-ee!" which he always sounded at the same dis­ tance, and her heart misgave her that the fast-ccming rider could net be him, but a casual stranger.. Rapidly the horse drew nearer, tak­ ing shape in the darkness, and still no joyful hall from the rider. Alarmed, she hastily sounded the well-known call. No answer! Then with a mad rush which told of his terror, the horse —his horse—rushed past her and stood trembling In the yard, to whisb his instinct had brought him for safe­ ty, and Milly saw that the saddle was empty! Quickly calling to her father Inside the house, she hastened to calm the terrified horse, and lead him to the door. The light from the lantern held ty her father shewed her what she had feared to see—the saddle wet with blood. No accident with which the rider might have met could account for that dark stain, and the terror displayed by the horse was proof positive that a tragedy had been enacted. The one question now lu Milly’s mind was whether there was yet time to help 'her lover. He might be dying on the trail, or—as bad, or worse—a helpless prisoner in the hands of the bush­ rangers. Her mind was made up InstantlyWithout a thought of the danger she faced, or stopping to answer her fath­ er’s call to her to wait, she sprang on the back of the horse, which knew her well, and turned his head in the direc­ tion of the bush, where she knew her lover was either dead or in the hands of the rangers. What she meant lo do she hardly knew. Fear she felt none, and the wild ride and the thought of what she - might meet stirred her blood to mad­ ness. A few minutes of fierce gallop­ ing and she realized that In her haste she might pass the object of her search If he had been wounded and fallen from his she felt beast would not •CMhlXK ccvery. Suddenly Ehe was sharply challenged, and a startled sentry fired point blank at her, but the surprise spoiled his aim. At once Milly urged he- horse over the edge of a small gully, and with the spring landed in safety among a group of men lying at ease around a camp fire. Though surprised, the bandits were on their feet with ready guns in an in­ stant. Seeing only the unarmed girl on the panting horse, the leader sharp­ ly called to his followers not to shoot, and stood gating at the silent figure. Milly's eye went rapidly round the camp—she had no thought of danger to herself—and she saw with joy. be­ yond the glare of the fire, a dark bun­ dle which her heart told her was what she had come to find. Uncertain what the advent of their visitor might mean, the men stood silent for a few minutes: then the leader said gruffly: “You’re a long way off the trail, ain’t ye, miss? T)ld you come to spend Christmas with us?” The gang good-naturedly echoed the guffaw their captain gave at this sail) of wit, but the girl now realized the danger she was in, and her brain worked rapidly. Rough, and often cruel, were these rangers of the bush, but deeds of generosity were not un­ known to them. She would make an appeal. In a voice the steadiness of which astonished her, she answered: "h(o, I can’t stop. I came for a Christmas present.” Milly saw in an instant by the faces ed man In an agony of fear. The band drew closer, and one of them said: “He ain't hurt bad. May­ be his arm’s broke. Let’s bring him to the fire.” As they lifted him, and Milly bent tn see his face,she caught her breath in fright, for he was unconscious, and a wild fear that he might be dead .-hot through her. The movement, however, must have caused him pain, for he groaned, and Milly tenderly passed her handker­ chief over his lips and face. "You can have him, now you've come for him, though he’d make a likely ranger," spoke up the leader; ’though I don’t see how you're going lo carry him. He can't ride a horse, that's sure.” Still somewhat surprised at her triendly reception, and wondering dimly If the men were cruelly joking J with her, Milly determined to play her part to the end, as she bad begnn, and said with as much of a laugh as she could summon np: "I’ll wrap him up and carry him." Her laugh was echoed boisterously, and one of the men handed her a flask of liquor, which Milly took gratefully, and forcing a little between the clenched teeth, soon saw w'.th joy the color return to his cheeks and his eyes open with surprise at his surroundings. Aside from He broke off awkwardly, probably the broken arm be was unhurt. Fearing he might spoil the good nearer to paying a compliment than he had been for many a year, but the effect she felt she had made with the robbers, she whispered to him to be girl's heart leaped at the word "hurt,” and In an Instant she was off the silent, and the man, still only half con­ •addle, and bending over the wound­ scious. obeyed her. of her audience that she had made a good impression, and went on: ‘There’s what I came for,” pointing to the bound figure, “he could not come to me, so I came to him.” “Oh. him!” said the leader, step­ ping close to her and leading her Lorse to the light. “Well, we don’t want the fool.

As well as she was able, she bound up the injured arm in such a way as to ease the pain, and supporting his head on her arm she waited anxiously for the outccme of the adventure. While Milly was ministering to her lover, the bushrangers had been con­ ferring at a little distance, and the leader now came forward and spoke to her with a little harshness in his tones: “Tie men say you know our biding places, and if we let you go you may inform on us. . Who are you, and who is this chap?” “My name is Milly Wickham, and • his is Frank Goodwin,” the girl answered. "My father's place Is only a few miles over there,” indicating, 'Frank Is a herder with Shepstone, and we're to bo married in February. I'll never say anything of this, believe me, and 1 promise for him. You can trust us."* "We've got to Crust you if we let you go, but, by ------. if you ever say a word about where you found us, we’ll get you, be sure of that Do you understand? Not a word, even to your father, and don’t ever ride this vay again. .Will you swear?” Gladly Milly gave the promise, and repeated after the man a rough formula calling down vengeance on herself and her friends If she ever violated the cath. And well she knew bow fearful would be the vengeance of these men if through her • their biding place should be found. Tales are still told in Australia of atrocities wreaked’ by these outlaws on persons whom they even suspected of betraying them, and rarely was a gang of desperadoes so utterly wiped cut that nene survived to do the work of vengeance. Milly felt gratitude toward these men, in addition to fear, for her enterprise had been extraordinarily successful, Then the leader cf the gang gave her her dismissal, leading up the tired horse, which had stood patiently wait­ ing. “Now, you’ve got to get him home on your own horse. We can't spare ore of ours,” said the man. Hell carry you both ^11 right, though you r.:de him pretty hard. Must have been in a hurry, weren't you?” with a chuckle at the pleasantry. And Milly in her joy looked up in hjs face and smiled with him. too pleased at her success to be afraid of his rough, bearded face and un­ kempt hair, which in the growing light she could almost see plainly. Well might she be proud of her night’s work. Frank, still hardly conscious, was lifted onto the horse in front of Milly, and the pair started out at a walk to cover the many miles she had ridden so fast a few hours before. Stern injunctions from the rangers not- to look tack on their journey were strictly obeyed, and in the dawn the pair went homeward, Milly sup­ porting in her arms—as she often told husband In after years—the 'Bushranger's' Christmas Gift” �HASTINGS HERALD, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 18, 1902. HASTINGS HERALD C. F. riKLD. Bdltor and Proprietor. The Orange and the Schools. Among the numerous resolutions adopted by the state grange at its an­ nual session last week two of the most commendable were contained In the re­ ports of the committees of education and on woman’s work, showing the atti­ tude of the grangers towards the rural schools. The committee on education favors the centralization plan for coun­ try schools, so far at least as the people are willing to adopt it. That is to say, the law should make it optional with the people of anj locality to centralize their schools or to continue the present system This would permit the new system to be put into practice wherever its operation might appear practicable and desirable, without forcing it upon districts that did not want it. Centralization has been tried in some parts of Michigan as weil as In other states, and the experiment is said to be successful State Superintendent of Public Instructions Fall who has made a careful study of the system, is strong­ ly in favor of it. On the other hand, Master of the State Grange. George H. Horton, is opposed to it Centraliza­ tion results in the establishment of one strong, well-organized, well-equipped, well-conducted school In the place of a dozen or more weak and small district schools, and at no greater cost to the taxpayers. In those parts of the state in which the rural school population is small, a central school to and from which the children are daily carried in comfortable wagons, would have many commendable features tin the other hand It must be borne in mind in con­ sidering any educational plan that cen­ tralization contains an Inherent evil. Where numbers of children are brought together in one school they must be graded and classified This involves to a greater or less degree a leveling pw»cess. up or down, a repression of indi­ viduality, a running of all minds through a common mold and a conse­ quent ignoring of the personal side of the child's nature II Is not likely, however, that this tendency of graded schools will prove a serious detriment in schools no larger than the centralized rural school will be. while the advant­ ages which the system will afford will more than offset what may be consid­ ered as a rather far fetched objection The committee on education also says: “If we care to get the best results, pa­ tron, pupil, teacher and commissioner must come closer together More of the spirit of co-operation is the urgent need of the hour,’’ aud the committee on woman's work urges ‘ that a special day be set apart by each suix>rdinate grange as a day for visiting the schools of the vicinity, but with special atten­ tion to the rural schools.” This is un­ questionably good advice. Ther«isfar too little attention paid by patrons lo their schools. More visits to the schools, more consultation between teacher and parent, more pride in the appearance of school buildings and premises, closer co-operation between “patron, pupil, teacher and commissioner” would do great things for the schools In the rural districts. ening to the absurdities, the short-sight- structure taken to some more central edueas, the iniquity of their party's point if that is all that will insure it against destruction.

Representative men from the states most Interested in tariff reform, from New England to Minnesota, governors and ex-govern­ ors, manufacturers and business men, were present and took part in the de­ liberations. Not only these, but Ca­ nadians, lice Mr. Charlton, were active participants in the discussions. The need of closer trade relations between the two countries and the pressing im­ portance of a reciprocity treaty were set forth in forceful argument. It is to be hoped that this movement for tariff reform may lead to legislation favoring Canadian-American and Cu­ ban-American commerce. It is not to be expected, of course, that a republi­ can congress dominated by Senators Hanna, Lodge and Foraker, will go very far in the direction of commercial freedom; in fact any action of such character would be a surprise to the country. Nevertheless the need for remedial legislation against the ini­ quities of the Dingley tariff is becoming more apparent every day and the work of agitation so admirably done at De­ troit will undoubtedly be continued un­ til the politicians at Washington will be compelled to listen. When millionaire manufacturers in Massachusetts and re­ publican governors in Iowa take active part in a convention tor tariff reform, it is evident .that a change is coming over the American people. It does pfot follow, however, that the republican party will succeed in meet­ ing the need of tariff reform. The party which, by taking so radical a stand'for prelection as a principle all these years has brought the evils of this system to an acute state, is not the party that is likely to apply the remedy suc­ cessfully. The party -is too hopelessly in the hands of the beneficiaries of pro­ tection to shake off its shackles and rise to the call of the country for relief. Nevertheless it is encouraging to see prominent members of that party awak­ Christmas Goods The movement for reciprocity will prove the entering wedge and if the republi­ can party prove unable to afford the re­ lief which the people are about to de­ mand, the democratic party’s opportun­ ity will be at hand and the true friends of tariff reform will take up the tight and push It to success.

Presents were drag­ ged out from their hiding places and marked with loving mottoes, and the names of the favored recipients. There was a general scrubbing, cleaning and dusting, and a furbishing up of holi­ day garments and finery. The men drowned themselves in coffee, punch and branvin and shouted themselves hoarse with oft-repeated ‘skald." The women gossiped and cooked and cooked and gossiped, while the ebubby children crammed their rtomachs with unwonted cakes and sweetmeats unmolested. Everything was free for the taking and the priv’lege of freedom was accorded every­ body. Olga threw her doors wide open to the whole village, promising a won­ derful surprise. Many thought she was not very considerate on Johan's account, thinking she would better be going around with tearful eyes and toud lamentations, but they ate freely of her good things none the less. Simple souls, they were not aware teat the lost Johan was to be the great surprise. Of course, everybody nad given him up for lost, and they were amazed that Olga should be the merriest maiden In the village, and that her home was to be the very center of the merrymaking on the Jul Afton. The pastor had been fore­ warned by Karl, and the good soul came prepared to fight the wicked troll for the salvation of Johan and Olga. The board groaned beneath the weight cf good cheer, and the huge i-owl was kept constantly brimming with steaming punch. There was no fcrmal banqueting, everybody eating when the humor seized him, and drinking whether thirsty or not, be­ cause good drink was there to be had without the asking. The whole vil­ lage was there waiting for the sur­ prise and nerving themselves up to withstand it by distending taelr stom­ achs. None but Olga, Karl and the pastor knew what it was to be, and even they did not know In what shape it would come. At last the first stroke of midnight. • »lga turned pale. Karl stood at atten­ tion and the good pastor grasped his holy book firmly in his band. The last stroke wan sill! ringing in their ^ars when a "lolent gust of wind shook the bouse and the dragging of heavy chains over the roof brought lerror to the inmates. The door was burst open by some Invisible force and a heavy bundle was hurled In among the amazed roysterers. An old wizened hag appeared In the doorway ^nd screamed out above the confu­ sion: "Girl, take the gift of the Christ Child, but beware of my vengeance. Shouldst thou accept any other gift before thou hast fully accepted this, then shall it return to me and be mine forever.” Johan was quickly restored by col-ious libations of hot punch, and when able to stand on his feet, Karl put bls hand in that of Olga and gave the pastor a slngal. Forthwith, Olga took Johan for her husband, and when the final words were spoken, a ternnest again shook the house, heavy chains were again dragged across the roof, and after shrieks of demoniac laughter, all was still without With tears and laughter, Olga grasped her brother's hand, and then larew herself Into the arms of her husband, the gift of the Christ Child, forever free from the thralls of the Skogfrau. Early Christmas Music* "Johan, thy betrothed!" shrieked the hag. “Girl, thou art mad. Get thee gone, and at midnight on the Jul Afton I will bring thee a jewel such as none can boast, but not Johan. He Is mine, I tell thee, mine forever. 1 will not give him up,” and she raised her arm as if to strike, but now Olga feared her not. Into her power, and if thou shalt de­ mand him in the name of the Christ Child she may not refuse thy request, since at this season she loses bar power and is at the mercy of mortals, but once only.” "Thou will be close beside me, my brother?" asked Olga, shivering. “Within five hundred paces is a charmed cricle which none but thou ry enter, but I will be just beyond and hear thy can for aid should aught happen requiring it Thou must amid the silent, gloomy, wintry waste of the forest. Not long had she wait­ ed ere distinctly through the awful stillnes came the clanging strokes of midnight which Karl rung upon the barrel of hit gun with a hammer to warn her of the time. W’ith a clear but quavering voice the girl called but three times: "Skcgfrau, in the name of the Christ Child, 1 demand a gift of thee. Skcgfrau, in the name of the Christ Child, I demand a gift of thee. Skogfrau, in the name of the Christ Child, I demand a gift of thee.” For a moment there was intense sllenoe, rushing sound as of a jacking, aud a rasping thou me, mortal? will not give him up,” and she raised her arm as if to strike, but now Olga feared her not "In the name of the Christ Child I demand Johan of thee. Thou hast promised whatever I might ask, and I will have no other gift from thee.” In vain the old crone raved and cursed and begged the girl to take all she possessed, but not the youth. She tore her hair and beat her breast and threatened dire vengeance upon the girl and her betrothed, but the clang­ ing of Karl's hammer gave Olga cour­ age to repeat her demand: "Give me my Johan in the name of the Christ Child." ' At last, the hag, worn out, said harshly: “Get thee home, and at the stroke of midnight on the Jul Afton I r scream she do as I bld thee. I have my reasons, my sister; the Skogfrau has been de­ feated thus far, but she is revengeful, yet I have a plan to end her power over Johan forever. Wilt do as I say, little one?" “Ja, my brother, though It be to do again as I did to-night.” "It will not be so terrible, my sis­ ter, and when thou hast done It thou wilt laugh and rejoice. Now, to bed with thee, to lay up freshness for the morrow. I will watch over the sweet Thilda and bring her to thy arms in tbemornlnK.” The Jul Tieden began with its mer­ rymaking and feasting. In one week, on the Jul Afton, the Christmas Eve, the climax would be reached. There was a squealing in the pens, a squall­ ing, cackling and quacking in the coops. Every oven was kept at the Both in Germany and in England in olden times the custom prevailed among young choristers of going through the streets In bands early on Christmas morning and singing Christmas hymns and carols for almsbefore the houses of the rich. A familiar picture is that of Martin Luther when a boy singing in the streets at Christmas dawn. Several cf the most familiar German Christ­ mas hymns were harmonised early in. the seventeenth century by Jacob Praetorious to melodies composed about the middle of the sixteenth century by Luther. One of the great­ est masters of German music, Johann Sebastian Bach, when a pupil at thechoir and grammar school at. St. Michael's, in Luneberg, walked thestreets early Christmas morntag bing­ ing these "waits,” with his fellow choristers, between whom and thoseof another school the musical rivalry was so intense that the authorities were obliged to map out separate routes for them in order to prevent their meeting aud coming to Wows. �w EIMEPNEWTCAI? bYMARE BOTIULDA baby.

Current Opinion. Why Not an Editor? -------' JJ “How long,” shrieked a populist spell binder, who was addressing the State Association of Farmer’ clubs— “How long since a farmer was nomi­ nated for governor of Michigan by either party?” Not so very long; and not so very long since a farmer was elected governor. There was John T. Rich ano Edwin B. Winans and Cyrus G. Luce and Joeiah W. Beg ole In fact four governors out of the last seven were farmers in the true sense of the term, and there is1 Col. Bliss, who is a “farmer’’ in the slang sense. If the populist orators desire a real grievance why not take up the cause of the. editor? So far os we remember no editor has been governor of Michigan under the present constitution. The Hon. James O'Donnell was a candidate for the re­ publican nomination during a long and active and honorable political life: but he never obtained even the nomination, to say nothing of an election. Why this political discrimination on the part of the farmer against the editor who in always glad to accept cord wood and vegetables on subscription?—Detroit Free Press. Our Long-Lost Brother. PLAIN TALK. The Canadian, on bis part, has seen the band of the United States ever against his country when the dominion needed assistance Now that its indus­ tries are self-supporting and its re­ sources are tempting capital from al) quarters of the globe, we Americans be­ gin to appreciate the desirability of bet­ ter relations with Canada. At first it was only a maudlin sentiment; but now there is money io it, and our hearts are touched. The Canadian Is a jolly good fellow which nobody can deny, and we should like to gather in the dividends from bis mines and bis forests and hls factories and incidentally sell him everything he needs for his own use. He is acquiring wealth, and wealth gives him a clear title to distinguished consideration at the hands of the Amer­ ican people. He Is our long-lost broth­ er.—Detroit Free Press.

There is a foundation of rock and cement which is 36ft. deep and 126ft. square. The monu­ ment is the highest work of masonry in the world. The interior is lighted by electricity, which affords opportunity of seeing the memorial stones which are set in the inner face of the monument, there are 179 stones which were contributed from various sources as tributes to W^ashiogton and many of them are notable for their beautj, elaborate carving or ori­ gin, at the height of 504ft.

The prediction may be safely made that American trade with the East will, be doubled during the next twelve months and the United States will become the • dominant power of the Pacific ocean. It Is not beyond the bounds of possibility that within the next decade the empire of trade and commerce wifi pass from the Atlantic to the Pacific shores. , ; Having In mind the vast strides taken by our country in comparatively a few recent years, what the volume of our commerce will be In another quarter ot a century It would be fool­ ish to predict, but it will be enormous. That the influence of America and the ' American people throughout ths world will have increased, so that they will have become net only the great com­ mercial nation of the world, but the greatest In political rank and power and influence and responsibility can iscarcely be doubted by those who ’have an abiding faith in the energy 'and wisdom and integrity of the ’American citizen. . The producing powers of the United States are still in their Infancy. Com pare our producing area with that of the well-developed and well-tilled countries of Europe nr.d It will be ap­ parent at a glance that it. the matter Cf agriculture w? .nay and shall In crease enormously the products of the soil, not only In increasing the actual product per acre, but by bringing un­ der cultivation many trillions of acrej which are now non productive. Id the matter of mines and minerals our production and productive powers have scarcely begun to show their possibilities. In all the great articles Which enter Into manufacture—the products of the mln*?, the forest and the field—we are the world s greatest producer and likely to continue so in­ . definitely. We have more of coal, more ot Iron, more of copper, more of timber, more of cotton, more of all the requirements which enter Into the precesses of the manufacture of arti­ cles required by the world at la.'ge. ’ civilized or uncivilized, than any other nation. We have the skill and energy with which to turn these into manu lectures, by far the greatest railway system of the world to carry them lo the water’s edge and a great ocean on either aide to float them to the wait­ ing millions of the world. This is a review of what we have • .done in the past, and only by It can we measure or attempt to measure What we shall do in the future. What wonders in the way of Inventions aad discoveries the next few years may have in store can only dimly be guessed at. A great thinker and in­ ventor has said of the future news Christmas paper: "We may, and I believe shall, have news transmission by air waves into phonegraphic instruments which will repeat the news of the day and record it at the same time, so that people may listen or may read as they prefer. The great force of the future is electricity, and it is In Its infancy as yet. It will be used to obviate all unnecessary waste of nervous tissue, and the phuno-air-wave newspapers of which I speak will certainly be trans­ mitted some day direct from the brains of their producers without any such manual, labor as writing and without even the need of speaking them aloud." In reviewing the record made dur­ ing the past year by United States soldiers it must be remembered that while the Implements of war have been vastly changed by modern in­ ventions, and modern weapons can be last few years on most extended fields used at much greater distances and of operation the United States army with more destructive effect, yet the has maintained its reputation for loy­ principles of war have not changed, alty, .intelligence and valor.

So far as money ia concerned, it is reasonable to suppose that the rates of interest will vary but little in the absence of unforeseen circumstances, such as war, etc. While we continue to sell our products to Europe and get large returns, we will be compelled to seek a market for cur money. The result will be the enormous develop­ ment of our own resources, mineral, agricultural, including wool, cattle and coWon, and the reachlrg out for mar­ kets in Japan and China. South Amer­ ica, and in fact all of the markets that have been monopolized by England, Germany and France. Having great natural advantages over our European . competitors, we will eventually win. The rapid growth of the great schools of applied science in the uni­ versities of America has been one ol the most notable features in the edu­ cational history of the past thirty years. To this more than to any oth­ er cause is due the overshadowing success of American manufactures and commerce. Higher education is coming more and more to mean devel-. opment cf the highest practical effect­ iveness. Without abundant and thor-. ough technical training good articles cannot be produced In competition with the world. Navies, tariffs, trusts and other devices cannot take the place of expert knowledge. The past year has been remarkable for a sudden and a practical advance In the marvelous history of the wire­ less telegraph. The scientific achieve­ ment which had been dreamed of for nearly half a century, aqd only with­ in late years had shown Itself some­ thing better than a dream, has given the most definite and the most en­ couraging evidences of Its claim to be regarded as one of the world’s great­ est accomplishments In the domain of practical science. Something of the same kind, auheugh in a leaser -de­ gree. may be eaid of the attempt to construct a flying machine, that proj­ ect which had its beginning, so far as we know, in the realms of classic fable, and may have had Its begin­ ning for aught we know In days long before the gods of Greece had ever come to be classified and worshiped. it Is not tco much to say that what­ ever may come of this ever-renewing enterprise, th? year saw the most practical evidence of its possibility yet given to the world. The year can- • not boast of any great triumphs en­ tirely Its own in the realms ' of* "literatore and art.

For this reason he was sitting on the Goat is­ land side of the ferry boat and wait­ ing—dominated by the ghastly whim v.-nlch bad sent so many others over­ board at that sarnq spot— until the wheel paddles shoula beat along the oordcr of the well known "graveyard" by the bay. The sa'.ooij door opened and a girl and an old man, both laden with bun­ dles, came out—the man with a ranch­ er's sun-brown face, stooping shoul­ ders and toil-hardened hands, the gin, plainly Lis daughter, tall, straight and comely after the wholesome, honost country fashion. ’Why, Jim!" she exclaimed with .'rank friendjtr.ess: and then: "How oddly things happen!

You will grow back to your old self up in the foothills, and afterward—if you care to stay—there is work in plenty." He looked down at her upturned face and the Insistent voices that had all day been calling him from the bay’s always yearning "graveyard" grew fainter and died into silence. “Ccme with us,’’ echoed the father, and the light pressure of the girl's fin­ gers on hls arm held him captive. The train shuddered into motion, and then, moving faster and faster through the crcsslights of the desert•d pier, bore the three away toward the beckoning premise of the New With the exception of All-Saints' Day there ia no time in the whole twelvemonth about which so many su­ perstitions cluster as New Years. Some form of divination to foretell the future Is practiced in almost every land on January 1. This, of course, is practically the case with young peo­ ple who desire to know whether they will get married during the coming year or soon thereafter. In the coun­ try districts of England and Germany there Is a tea and coffee test which is most satisfactory. A teaspoon is bal­ anced carefully on the edge of a cup. Then tea or coffee, as the case may be, is dropped into it, drop by drop; Every drop that the spoon will hold without losing its balance means an­ other year before the wedding.

Christmas clas­ sics of the neighborhood. They were having the Christmas tree in the Sunday school room, and the beautiful green cone-shaped fir was ablaze with lights, glittering with gay decorations and loaded down with tokens of affection. Jimmie Smith, a freckle-faced youth ot sem? eleven winters, sat with some of bis chosen companions on a bench just In front ot his par­ ents, nearly in the center of the halL The Smiths—these particular Smiths, at least—were comparatively recent additions to the church family, but they had already achieved a mild sort of popularity among their new ac­ quaintances. for they dressed well, ap­ parently lived well and were, seem­ ingly. in every way “nice people to know/' Their gifts to each other on this public occasion had been expensive and elegant enough to fill the minds of all present with respectful admira­ tion, in some cases shadowed by alalnt cloud of envy. Mrs. Smith had teceived a flashing solitaire diamond’ ring from her loving lord, and had presented him with a gold match safo and a silver paper cutter; and soon after the name of their only son and heir was loudly proclaimed by the stentorian-voiced young man who played the part of an Aaron for the rubicund and smiling dispenser of presents. A good-sized morocco case was young Smith's regard for plowing his wav to the tree. "Jimmie Smith, from his father and mother,’’ the young man read from the card at­ tached as he handed the gift to ths boy, who, grinning widely, hurried back to hls seat. “Hully gee!

We will make a few suggestions of One of the most atrocious murders and crimes ever committed in this county occurred Monday morning be­ tween the hours of 8:00 and 8:00 o'clock at the home of Robert Garrison in Johnstown township, about thirteen miles south- of this city, and two and one-half miles south and one-fourth mile east of Dowling, and Mrs. Robert Garrison was the victim. * John Brantlinger, who has worked in that vicinity for about two months, most of the time for Fred VanSlokle, is now confined in the county jail, charged with the crime. Mr. Garrison, Fred VanSickle and Fred Stamm went'to Battle Creek that morning with loads of wood, starting about 6:00 o’clock by Mr. Garrison’s time which was fully one-half hour faster than standard time. Mr. and Mrs. Garrison arose early that morning. Mr. Garrison harness­ ed his team, and having left hls load of wood at Wm. Renkes’ oorner on the Battle Creek road he had to drive the team out there, about a quarter of a mile, and hitch to the wagon. It was about 7:00 o’clock by bis time when he passed Mr. VanSickle’s house with lheload, and be saw Brantlinger drawing water, he thinks, from the cistern. Mrs. VanSickle is quite posi­ tive that Brantlinger spoke to Mr. Garrison saying "Hello, Rob!” Mr. Garrison says that he did not hear him, which was probably due to the noise made by the wagon. Brantlinger knew Sunday that all of the men were going io Battle Creek with wood, and be had asked If be could borrow Mr. VanSickle’s shotgun to go after skunks with. The gun had been perfectly cleaned before that time. A few minutes after the men had started for Battle Creek he took the gun and told Mrs. VanSickle that he Seased he would go out and look after jse skunks where they had been cutting wood. About 8:00 o’clock he returned to VanSickle’s and left the gun. saying that he had the skunks in a hole and wouldn’t need it. He then left tbe house.

WRIGHT BROS £ Hastings, Mich. $1.00 SCENE OF THE CRIME. About 4:00 o’clock p. m. a Hitati.n reporter, J. H. Dennis, L. H. ErarUi. cod Fred W. Walker arrived at Mr. Garrison's bouse and learned tbe par­ ticulars concerning the crime. On our way out Willard Perry, residing three mile. sputb of tbe city, bad received a telephone message for tbe sheriff and linger had been arrested at Battle Creek.; At Matthew Hall’s, about half a mile further south, we received the same message. The usefulness of the telephone was oommen ted upon by the party. Sheriff Cortright waa hardly able to be out of the house, but the seri­ ousness of the crime had caused him to Sat aside hls sickness and get out on nty. He and Prosecuting Attorney Thomas, Coroner Lathrop and W. R. Cook bad gone on before us. When we arrived the sheriff was notified of the arrest. Nothing bad been disturbed in the house. A coroner’s jnry composed of W. R. Cook, L. H. Evarts, Edgar Bris­ tol, Henry Bristol, J. H. Dennis and Herb Snyder was impanelled. L. H. Evarts was chosen foreman and at the suggestion of the coroner an investiga­ tion was commenced. Search revealed that a lady's gold watch and chain and a’- pocket-book were missing. Tbe house had been completely ransacked by the murderer, but he had evidently been- in too great a burry, as another pocket-book, almost in plain sight, con­ taining $40 in cash and a certificate of deposit for 81,045, was found. This cer­ tificate was for money received from the eale of the farm about six weeks ago to Fred Stamm, and undoubtedly Brantlinger thought the whole amount wac In the house in cash. Four gold rings, which were in the case with the watch aud chain, were not taken. Coroner’s inquest was adjourned to supervisors, room, Hastings, at 1 p. Thursday. I a YMA»1 ==^ ---&.

A SECOND CONFESSION Brantlinger has made a breast of tbe whole affair to Sheriff Cortright, Proaecutor Thomas and others. He say* that he went to Garrison’s for tbe pur­ pose ht committing an assault upon Mrs. Garrison and u> rob the premises; that he went into the north door of the kitchen with the gun cocked and lying across hls arm; that he pretended that Mr. Garrison owed him 50 cents for labor; that he asked Mrs. Garrison for tbe amoant and she said “All right, I'll get lit for you;” that he stood in front of the atove and aa she started to pass him he pulled the trigger and de­ liberately shot her without her even having a suspicion of what he waa go­ ing to do; that he let her lay upon the floor until he had searched the house, secured the pocket-book which he op­ posed bad the money in It, and the watch; that he then dragged her body Into the bedroom and committed an­ other crime; that he then threw the clothes over the blood, took some water from the boiler ana washed hls hands; that he then went to the home of Mrs. Fred VanSickle intending to treat her the same wav, but upon his arrival found two children there with whom he was acquainted; that after talking with them a short time he put the gun down, left the house and started to get out of the country. He claims to have a brother in Johnstown, Penn., and that hia mother and three sisters were lost in the Johnstown flood. ; ' I B .* 1 ’ . ? ’ . ' LODGED IN JAIL.

About 100 people were as­ sembled at tbe depotto get a glimpse at tbe villian of viilians. He was p^le and trembling, evidently expecting to be lynched. Quite a number ot people have seen him at tbe jail. He Is dark complexioned, long thin face, short iu stature and will weigh about 125 pounds. He looks like a.degenbrate that he is.

The beaver is armed with two tong ctesslllke teeth in each jaw. Thera ' teeth are exceedingly powerful and are to a bearer what an ax la to a woods­ __ man. One such tooth taken from the tower jaw of a medium sized skull (they can be removed without dlfficulty, unlike the most of ours) is bent into nearly a semicircle and measures five inches along its outer curve. Only pne inch 6f thia length projects from the skull. The corresponding one from the upper jaw is bent into more than a complete half circle and measures upon Its outer face four inches, oC which less than an inch protrudes from its ■bone casing. ' In width each tooth la five-eighths of an inch. Examination The quagga, the half cousin to the wild aw, has vanished from Africa and only exists as imperfect specimens In the European museums. The quagga exists as a name still in South Africa, for the name has been wrongly applied to Burchell’s zebra, but the true quagga, which took its name from its cry "quacba," has been extinct since 1872, wheo/tbe last of hls or, rather, of her race, for this quagga was a female, died in the Lon­ don Zoological society’s menagerie. Its extinction in South Africa was due solely to the zeal with which the Dutch farmers hunted it for its hide, and it is a saddening reflection that thousands of Kaffirs used to be fed on it by their Boer masters.' The idiotic wastefulness of thus ex­ terminating a species • becomes the more marked in view of the fact that the quagga, which was midway be­ tween a zebra and a wild ass, could be broken to harness and was the bravest as well as the hardiest of ani­ mals. Borne Boer farmers used to keep tame quaggas on their farms to graze with horses in order to protect them from beaots of prey. bow a beaver can perform such feats as chopping down a birch tree sixteen Inches Id diameter, not to speak of softer woods, like the basswood, of much greater size.

Paper Prepared by Mrs. J. F. Ed| monds and Read at the Fisher S Sunday School. The forty-second annual convention of the State Sunday School Association was held in the First Baptist church of Lansing, Nov. 18,19, 20 and was indeed a grand success, about 1000 delegates being presents The city of Lansing proved herself most loyal in royally en­ tertaining her guests. The first session was called to order at 1:45 Tuesday. After the opening ex­ ercises and business meeting the sub­ ject of The Trained Sunday School Teacher by Rev. Matthew Kolya of Grand Rapids wm taken up. He spoke not only of the greatly increased useful­ ness of tbe teacher who has been trained tor the work, but urged the necessity of neglecting no opportunity for inoreaslag a knowledge not only of the eab-^ jecta that were to be taught but of the beet methods of teaching. The teachers meeting was discussed by E. K. Warren of Three Oakes. He is a very enthusiMtic Sunday school worker. He pointed out the needs of the teachers meeting. Thought it very helpful and important tor the teachers to discuss the various points and how to teach them. Go to the meeting in a prayerful mood. The subject was dis­ cussed; one person thought the place of meeting should always be at the super­ intendent's ~house« gather around tbe dining room table; another thought was “be ready to go before your class in a teachable mood.” H. R. Patten­ gill closed the discussion by saying “If you have a member who does not al­ ways come but is kept away by home duties or other causes, be charitable, don’t say we are glad you are here but you ought to have been here last week, make them welcome when they do come. Maripu Lawrence of Toledo, O., then gave A talk on The Relation of County, Township or District Officers to tbeSuc: cess or Failure of Organized Sunday School Work. Mr. Lawrence is Gen­ * . eral Secretary of the International Sun­ day School Convention and a very in­ teresting talker. He told his hearers ih plain terms and with many telllnp | illustrations, that upon the township ofI fleer, his ability and faithfulness, d6* pends the success of tbe entire system of Sunday school work. He used many comparisons to illustrate the vital im­ portance of the township work. He ’ compared the work of the international body to the trunk of a tree, to the pow­ er-house of an electric light system to a branch line of a railroad, and to the I,.. bed of s streeticar line. In each of these he said, the vital point, the link that connects the tree and tbe fruit, electric . light with the power-house, the current with the moter fn the advancing car, is * the township officer. He carries all he r has learned at county, state or national I • meetings back to his school and uses it. L If he,does not do this his usefulness is I gone. This method reaches the Indi-, f vidual and said Mr. Lawrence “If the F Sunday school association has not got • his eye on the very last boy in the state of Michigan, the association hud better pat bn in far-seeing glasses.” Tuesday evening about 1400 people were gathered at tbe church. Just as they were ready to open the song ser­ vice the electric lights all went out and there we sat in total darkness. Someone started “Nearer My God to Thee” which they sang through, then someone k. suggested “Let a Little Sunshine in?’, . which was quite appropriate In our . darkened state. Individual lamps were soon brought in and'the program was carried out, however, without the elec­ trio lights about an hour. The song services throughout tbe convention were mostly conducted by Prof. E. O. Excell whose fame is world wide for the many fine hymns and songs he has printed. He is a fine ringer and leader. Welcome greetings by different pastors ot Lansing were very hearty and cor­ dial. Hon. H. R. Pattengill sprite in behalf of the Snnday schools of Lansing. IL00 HASTINGS, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 25, 1902. XXIR, No. 82 THE FISH AND GAME LAW declared, we are only playing al Sun­ day school. * The time Wednesday forenoon was taken up with reports of the executive committee, secretary! and treasurer. The executive oom mittee recommended the broadening of the Sunday .school work. The ohoslng of a primary super­ intendent who would spend several months of the year in the work and receive compensation. The neM of statistical reports from each county was urged, and various other recommenda­ tions. Acting upon these suggestions the convention was solicited and over 84500 was pledged to help carry on the great work. Part of the Thursday afternoon uro­ gram was taken by Charles D. Meigs of St. Louis, Mo., one of the editors of the Sunday School Evar ’ * he “about the Sunday school to come, but I will tell you of real Sunday schools of today into which I have put my foot.” Mr. Meigs clarified all Sun­ day schools as being Ln the htmt line, the middle line or the rear linA, “A rear line Sunday school is ofle that is asleep and doeent know it. In the average or middle line Sunday school, he declared that the superintendent might always be there, bntfhe never goes out to get any new ideas, the church members are not there, , be said, and only about two-thirds. That kind of a Sunday school is generally called a good Sunday school, nut he reminded the delegates Chat ‘‘good is always an enemy of the best. The front line Sun­ day school bad caught up and caught on to new Ideas.” “The pastor Is a Sunday school man, the superinten­ dent is a bustler, teachers meetings are always held. The fact is that a Sunday school without a teachers meeting is as poor as a church without a prayer meeting.” Mr. Meigs said many more helpful and interesting things.. At 5 o'clock Wednesday evening Governor Bliss gave a reception at the executive parlors. Wednesday evening found us still void of electric lights, yet the program was carried out and we listened to some able addresses. Mr. Hugh Cork, gen­ eral secretary of the Pennsylvania Sun­ day School Association, addressed the delegates on the subject of “House to House Visitations,” which was insthictre and good. . Miss F.Murfee^Burton of Louisville, Ky., in a very charming manner then addressed the convention. Her theme was “Three Factors in Primary Sun­ day School Work. ” The factors which she enumerated are, the child, teachers and the truth to be taught. The gain by, the'ulass, she said, is individual. There is need of a teacher training so that the child’s gain may be greater. Miss Burton stated that we must arouse the child:s interest. “Interest” she said “is the keynote to primary prob­ lems. Observation, memory, thought and Imagination were said to be indespensable qualifications of the teacher. She must have love for, light on, and liberty in her work. Thursday .morning the convention was divided into three conferences. The normal department was conducted by'Hon. H. R. Pattengill; the Sunday school by Charles D. Meigs and the primary department by Miss Burton. At 10 o'clock the convention reassem­ bled and a general quefttioh box filled the time till noon. It was beneficial and Instructive. . ■ -' Thursday afternoon Pres. Bolles in­ troduced President elect- Wright of Hancock. Mr. Wright responded in a way that promised results for the com­ ing year. A great many more tihngs of interest might be told of the conven­ tion but space will not permit. How­ ever it was a general success, and very helpful to those interested in Snnday school work. Card ot Thanks. We wish to express our sincere thanks to all our friends and neigh­ bors who so kindly assisted us during the burial of our beloved daughter and sister, Julia R. Barbieri.

Miss Glenna has lived i and useful presents. The writer with their many friends ' *“ tnlations in wishing them and prosperous journey cided to ask our senators and repre­ sentatives to make the following amendments the fish and game laws at the coming searion of the legisla­ ture. ’ We favor the making of one general open season for all feathered game from Oct- 1 to Dec. 15. While the adoption ot this law may shut out soring shooting of all descrip­ tions it will give a longer season in tne fall, and make the season uniform all over the state, and the farmer boys will have an opportunity to do a little shooting after the fall work is done. We ask that the deer season remain the same, but that the number be re­ duced to two, and that non-residents be allowed to take their deer out of the state, and that the sale of venison be allowed. . It always has seemed unjust for a man topsy 825 for a license to hunt deer and then not be allowed to take even a head or a piece of venison home to his family. ' ' We favor the repeal of all spring shooting laws. ' For the reason that while we may lose an opportunity to shoot a few mi­ gratory birds, they are generally on their way to their breeding ground, and ithe killing of one bird means the annihilation of an entire brood. We favor increasing the size of brook trout from 6 to 7 inches and let the open season remain as it is. For the reason that a trout that has attained the length of seven Inches has bred once land assisted in restocking the stream. These are all tbe amendments we in­ tend to ask for this session and it is hoped, if these suggestions meet with your views, that you ask your senators and representatives in your various lo­ calities to correspond with Senator David E. Burns. Grand Rapids, Mich., and work with him in his endeavor to get all of these amendments. Eber Rice, Sec’y.

Journal. '., j . Our sheep show was a notable one this year. It took “good stuff” to win, and while som6 good sheep necessarily went home without recognition, yet the owners were satisfied: for instance, one Michigan breeder with 21 entries failed to land a single ribbon, and yet he sold a car load of sixty ewes and two rams to Montana men besides some smaller sales. They were pure bred Shropsbiras. While the "Shrops” were out in' largest numbers, some splen­ did specimens of other breeds were al­ so there. Two breeders, one from Province Quebec, the other from New Brunswick, were showing some “love­ ly” Southdowns, a pen of lambs ap­ pearing on page 1103 of lost week’s Breeders Gazette. Geo.

It was Interest­ ing to hear him tell bow these year­ lings were handled to put on so much hard flesh so smoothly and so evenly over the entire body. 'They were a year fitting the yearlings, the sheep running out all the time, excepting in bad storms; had access to all kinds of green forage such as rape, • alfolfa, turnips, kale, cabbage,' etc.,' supplimented by a grain ration.

Mr. Rufus Blaine was a man unifl versally esteemed by his neighbors. W He was a good father, loved his home, and possessed.of that kindness of nature 3 that could not bear to see anything suf­ fer. He petted bis children during . their youRg life, but as they advanced 1 towards mature years, thought it un­ becoming to bestow a caress or express a word of affection. He was naturally cheerful, enjoyed heartily a jest and “ did not hesitate to perpetrate one upon others when suitable occasion present­ ed itself. Indeed he had many good qualltiee and admirable traits of char­ acter; but strange to say had a strong prejudice against gift-giving at Christ­ mas time. It was, to use his own home­ ly expression, “all-fol-de-rol.” He and his family lived in a rural district in C----- county, Michigan, about the year 1870. A new commodious school house had been built on a well traveled four cor9 neru, and the school mistrees had de­ cided to have a Christmas tree for her pupils. All the families in the district were Invited to participate. Each way from the school House dwelt beads of ' households and their respective fami’ 'jj lies, who readily assisted In the neces­ sary preparations and each one strove to make it a success to please the young lady teacher. As in all country dis- a| trlcts, the affair soon became thorough­ ly canvassed and numerous journeys, a as the time drew near, were made to a neighboring city, to procure Christ‘a mas gifts. ••Father” said one of the daughters of Mr. Blaine. “Will you ! drive over to the school house on Christmas eve?” He hesitated just a .-$s second before replying, and then said slowly, “Yes, I s'pose so,” finishing 3 slowly to himself, “but its all fol-de. rol.” The promise once made, would J surely be kept, and the daughter, on a secret plan determined, sought a J brother living in the city, explained matters to him and asked. “Don’t you want to make father a • present?” ’ “Yes” he quickly replies, “if he will .JI take it.” “We will make him take it” said the daughter, amusing herself with the fancied scene. /i little more chatting and the plan J was completed. Appropriate gifts for ; the father and mother arrived in due I time on the four corners and were stored conveniently near. The auticipated hour came at last and the school j nouse was filled to overflowing. - A- :3 beautiful tree had been procured,, the , house was filled to overflowing. A y beautiful tree had been procured, the . 3 house decorated with sprays, wreathes. -1 and appropriate mottoes and busy fingers bad labored faithfully to make the scene attractive, and the time one ’ -.1 to tee remembered. The greatest glee and enjoyment prevailed among the • . youngsters, and two sharp taps of the bell were heard, before order was es­ tablished. A short program was then SB given and it was fitting that it was short, for that well filled tree bod been ' 4' gazed upon by numerous shining eyes, and now the chosen committee preparJ ed for the distribution of gifts. Soor eager hands grasped their j treasures, eager lips murmured soft- * . ened ejaculations of pleasure, eager. J eyes rested furtively on the supposed donors and all hearts seemed imbued J with the joy of giving and receiving. All were remembered and bounteously too, for this locality had, as well as some :.aS| others, needy residents. No one was , forgotten. The last gift presented wae quite unexpected. “Mr. Rufus Blaine” • called one of the committee. For a . wonder perfect stillness at that moment . reigned, and to the surprise ot ail in the bouse, a clear resonant “Here!” was heard from Mr. Blaine. The next moment a nice easy armed chair was held aloft. Smiles -crept on some faces; but one face seemed immovable! j Unthinkingly he had answered to the ' calling of nis name; but the sight of,. s the gift brought him to his senses, and . now he did considerable thinking. A ■ glance of the daughter strayed in bis : direction and she fancied a movement of the lips and knew well what they would have uttered. Soon good nights . : began to be whispered, while hearts 1 were glowing with unusual warmth;w and joyous voices shouted on the night air as the crowd homeward wended - ; Y their way. Of course that chair went to its destination; but not a word was' . ‘-3 ventured on the gift. The next morning, Mr. Blaine as usual, arose and kindled morning fires. . 3g Asone by one, members of the family . entered the living room, they were as­ tonished to find that armed chair drawn in front of the fire and the re­ cipient of the gift complacently seated . therein, while a sickly sort of a smile crept upon his features, which might ' be interpreted as a disappearing of the prejudice against Christmas gifts, or a kind of shame that he had so quickly yielded and accepted. It mattered not which it was, for each one praised the ' gift, and the giver, Mr. Blaine inoluded. ■ Christmas festivities came after this • as often as the years rolled around. The old man long since laid down life’s . burdens; but. tender memories of hte good heart creep around his children’s firesides and from their Ups come words of love for him who sleeps his last sleep.

The knocking to pieces of the Puerto Cabello fortress and custom house by British and German runboats was a necessary and justifiable act of retalia­ tion, wholly independent of the general movement to compel Venezuela to pay her debts.

Owners of such plants are continually asking, “What shall I do to prevent the leaves falling off? Some people tell me I give my plant too much water and others tell me I don’t give it water enough; but do matter which advice I follow the leaves will decay and fan off.” . The foilowlfig simple plan will-prove a cure aU for such annoyances if'it is followed with due regularity, says the Washington Star: Every spring the plant should be repotted in good soil, each time in ’a larger pot, and during 'the summer months kept in a shady part of the house, away from the suu, . and ^watered dally. In winter the plant • house, but should not have too ‘much sun. Once each Week the entire pot should be thoroughly immersed in a bucket or tub of water and allowed to >oak over night giving the water am­ ple opportunity to soak to its center. Next morning take the ,pot out of its bathtub and allowed it to drain awhile and do not give ft any more water for two or three days, then let it have *a drink each morning until time for Its next bath. By carefully following this plan you will be surprised to see Which th. largo glossy leaves will show, and you will not be annoyed with the leaves falling off. j • If there are worms in the earth, give the plant a liberal soaking with soap­ suds and you will see the worms wrig­ gling out in a great hurry, when they may be easily removed. A little lime water will answer the purpose.just as well and not Injure the plant The leaves should be frequently cleaned with a soft damp cloth and dust not' allowed to Accumulate on them. Just try this method on your plant and note how promptly its health will improve. Unslacked lime mixed with the white of an egg is a simple and good cement It dries very quickly, even having r tendency to dry before the broken edges of the article can be brought to­ gether. If quickly mixed and applied, the mended dish will be strong and' ready for use within a few hours. Apply a httle table salt to the spot stained and also moisten it with sher­ ry.

The gracious custom of gift making, with all it* merry accompaniments of Christ­ mas trees, and yule-tide ceremonies, its family gatherings and social enjoy­ ments, and especially its deeds of kind­ ness to the poor and lowly—all these features serve the blessed purpose of banishing sordid nees and selfishness and cold-heartedneas from our thoughts and Inspiring in their place the trne Christ spirit of lore and self sacrifice and peace tojall mankind. It is this spirit that makes Christmas ever new and ever blessed to all the Christian World. The Natural Result of Monroeism. The present South American trouble is likely to have a determining influ­ ence upon the Monroe doctrine. This doctrine has been gradually evolved and established as a recognized princi­ ple for the western hemisphere. The nations of the old world have never formally acknowledged its validity al­ though England was the first to suggest tbe idea to tbe United States. The European powers, however, absorbed in their own affairs and paying little at­ tention to tbe western continent, have tacitly acquiesced in the attitude of the United States that Europe must keep hands off tbe cations on this side the "Atlantic. The one notable exception occurred when France tried vo estab­ lish an Austrian prince as ruler) of Mexico, and was glad to abandon the •.project when she saw that it meant war with tbe United States. But the time has now come when the nations of Europe are deeply interested in the western hemisphere. Commer­ cial relations between the Latin-Amer­ ican nations and Europe have grown to large proportions and it is inevitable that Germany, Great Britain, Spain and tbe rest should take measures to protect these relations. Were it not for .the protection which the United ■ Bwtes offers to tbe weak republics of South America through the so-called Monroe doctrine, there can be little doubt that European “spheres of In­ fluence” would soon be established jail over South America, just as they have been in Africa and China. This protection of the United States must however be regarded ae based upon moral sentiment quite as much as upon physical power. The contention of this country has been that the west­ ern hemisphere is destined for freedom and set apart a* a refuge for the weak and the oppressed of the old world, where the institutions of free and sov­ ereign peoples must not be interfered with by tbe nations of tbe old world. Of course there has been the more sel­ fish and practical motive on our part that our own safety depended upon the Monroe doctrine, but even this motive ha* been entirely defensible on moral the republic* of the new world we ought In justice to etand sponsor for their juM treatment of the old world. Th© Farmers and Reciprocity. Like all other claeses of tbe industrial world the farmers >re opposed to any reciprocity arrangement a bleb is likely to reduce their own profit*. At the re­ cent convention of Michigan lire stock breedeYs President Robert Gibbons spoke emphatically against Canadian reciprocity a* threatening to injure the agricultural interests all along the bor­ der, and his statement* were warmly applauded. The farmers ar* no more to be blamed than the manufacturers for protesting against any change in the tariff that might be detrimental to themselves. The whole protective doctrine is found­ ed upon selfishness.' It is'rank favorit­ ism of certain classes at the expense of the maaare What care the favored ones for the welfare of the whole coun­ try when such welfare is to be secured by sacrificing some of their own artific­ ially produced, government sustained profits? Is it to be expected that the lumber barons, for instance, will favor any reduction of tbe duty on lumber for tbe benefit of the farmer? And is it any more reasonable to expect that the farmers will favor reductions on the agricultural schedules? There is no altruism in the protective policy, at least, so far as it* practical workings are concerned. It says in effect: Take all you can get regardless of tbe inter­ ests of the whole. Reciprocity, on the other hand, recognizes to some extent at least, that commerce and trade must depend upon reciprocal profit; that both buyer and seller must be benefited by tbe exchange of commodities; that both parties must be prosperous if they are to do business together. Hence it is willing to concede to business competi­ tors the right to share in the profits of tradb, and to make some sacrifice if necessary in order to encourage com­ merce. ~ The advocates of Canadian reciproc­ ity do not go very far towards free trade in their proposition. It is^only a few product* that they are basing their effort* for a trade convention with Can­ ada upon and these few will not materi­ ally injure anybody or remove just prof­ its from any American industry. It is □ot likely that tbe farmers of Michigan would suffer any financial loss whatever from the proposed removal of tariff duties on their product*. Any decline in prices that might follow Canadian competition in livestock, poultry, grain, hides etc. would likely be fully compen­ sated for by the reduced cost of them­ selves of lumber, coal, boot* and shoes etc. It Is certain that if we-do not en­ ter into more liberal trade relations with Canada we shall force our rapidly growing neighbor to turnlaway from us the immense trade which she now gives us and this will hurt our farmers far more than it will to make a few conces­ sions to Canadian agriculture now. Henoe if we look upon Canadian re­ ciprocity from a purely selfish stand­ point there is not much ground for our fanner friends to stand upon. And when we regard the general welfare of the American people there is so much at stake In this movement for closer trade relations between ourselves and the people north of our borders, who are just entering upon an era of wonderful growth and prosperity, that selfishness of the kind manifested by President Gibbons, sinks into, a pettiness un­ worthy of the freateat of oar industries.

Moreover, he was doing too much night work at home. “It’s enough to work your eight hours each day, Ted,” said Fitaon to him the r morning,of the parade, “and put to your evenings knocking around.” ■ ’ “Not the kind that knocks around, Fite," replied Ted. “Go over and see the girl, then, my boy," nesponded Fitsou as a parting shot ‘That’s better stilt” “Good advice,” muttered Gardner to himself, “but I quit that a year ago.” Tbe Westchester employees always . met after the Labor day ceremonies and had an excursion of their own to a general, good, old fashioned /picnic style.

Tbe day of Joe's death Ted had met Nell walking down to the works to deliver the message. She was weep­ ing. He had never spoken to her be­ fore. but be suspected her mission and, raising his cap politely, said feel­ ingly: “Please, Miss Fowler, PH tell them at the works. Don’t you go down there." Nell hesitated a moment, looked ap­ pealingly' at him, then “Thank you," she said. “You are very kind.” Quick­ ly she retraced, her steps, and Ted. watching the retreating figure for a moment, sauntered off to break the news to the office staff. Yes, he remembered all that as though it were yesterday, yet it was almost three years ago. Labor day of that year Nell was not at tbe picnic, but on the next holiday she was there, and on that very day he had told her. It needed do telling, for Nell had known long ago. as every woman does, and she was proud of it, but she sat silently picking a wild flower to pieces as he spoke, and finally when he asked that she give up the office and come with him to a new home of their own she rose to her feet and moved away. He had followed. From then on she seemed to change. At least Ted thought so. Again he had spoken and this time got an answer. It was “No." If she held any love for him, it was hidden deep somewhere beyond the vision of human eyes. “If It's on account of your mother.

For a second be did not move, could not, but it was only for a second. Then he leaped over into the crowd; in another instant he was climbing up the burn­ ing float The naphtha bad exploded. The horses, almost mad with fright dashed off at a wild puce. Men, wom­ en and children rushed and tumbled over each other, screaming in their frenzy to escape death beneath the hoofs of the horses. Ted reached the seat and grasped the lines. The ani­ mals made a swift turn and fled to­ ward the river. Would he guide then? into the water? The crowd saw his ef­ fort and cheered. All this happened to a minute or less. Nd; be could not control them! On they dashed on the edge of the stream, but not into the saving flood. Losing time was losing life. Ted looked back into the float Tbe occupanta stood screaming, not daring to jump. The engineer was writhing to agony, a mass of flames. The pain was driving him mad. Suddenly he jumped to bls feet leaped into the air and—to his death. Nell stood with her face burled to her hands. The flames reached for her skirts. Now her hands were stretched out toward him. “Ted!" she cried and staggered forward.

No one or course would dream of ustog.it as between noun and noun—of saying,, for Instance, “This is a different kind than the oth­ er.” Tbe question la whether it can be used when a verb follows. “They act to a wholly different manner than we do.” If one may not say thia, bow may it be said? “Different manner from what we do” Is clumsy and Inelegant Every writer has at one time or an­ other found himself In desperate straits for a meana of hitching “different” on to a verbal sentence, and the use of “than" so obviously supplies a felt want and is In itself so logical that we believe It to be justified. The verb “differ" as well as the adjective “dif­ ferent*’ Is a trap for the unwary. Even the most careful writers and speakers habitually talk about “differing with” when they mean "differing from.” “I beg to differ with the honorable gentle­ man opposite" is the most familiar ex­ ordium of a speech to the bouse of commons, and, though examples can ot course be quoted from the best writers, it is a solecism which offends against logic and instinct ' * Still Believe In Witchcraft. A belief in witchcraft still prevails in parts of Lancashire, England, alao in the lale of Man, and still more strongly In tbe Hebrides. A writer in Chambers' Journal gives some inter­ esting anecdotes of tbe superstitions which persist among the Hebrideans. Belief in witchcraft Is said to have a “strong and living hold" on some of the people of those outer Isles. Ad in­ stance is given of a case heard before the Stornoway sheriff's court so lately at> November, 1899, in which witnesses deposed to there being several witches in tbe township, one of whom was charged with so bewitching cows that the .substance of their milk passed into the milk of the witch’s cow.

In Paris each house Is provided by the city with a targe box. Into this the servants throw all that is not need­ ed by the family, whether of food or raiment Every morning the chif­ foniers. or ragpickers, are privileged to search through these boxes before the contents are carted by the city to dis­ tant fields, where the refuse Is em­ ployed In fertilizing the soil. From the homes of tbe wealthy the poor re­ ceive many articles of real value. Fif­ ty thousand ragpickers, say the statis­ tics, realize $10,000 dally from their pickings. Speaking of high prices, Henry Nor­ man's book on Russia throws some in­ teresting light on what it Incidentally costa to visit St Petersburg. To begin with, he tells us every house and hotel there contains a swarm of servants, and each one expects a tip. The man who takes your coat and hat at a pri­ vate house thinks 10 cents little enough, and if you give a dollar or two to the attendant who performs the same mod­ est service at an official residence he is only satisfied. The tips of a wealthy Russian to a waiter at a good restau­ rant are something enormous. A de­ cent room in a first class hotel costs about $4 a day, and a closed carriage to take you to dinner, ten minutes* drive away, costs $5. A few sheets of note paper in your hotel costs you a shilling and the cheapest kind of a bath $1. St Petersburg is far and away the most expensive city in the world. There Is nothing like having both feet on the ground, says Medical Talk. If a man should go barefoot, the con­ tact of his bare feet with the earth and his bead projecting into the at­ mosphere would make a perfect elec­ trical conductor, through which the electricity of the air would pass through his body to the earth. While no apparent harm Is done, yet, being insulated from the electricity of the earth by wearing shoes, the electricity falls of Its beneficial result There can To talk through a human body, or a be no doubt that it would be better for row of human bodies, for the matter of everybody, especially nervous people, that, is one of the weirdest of the elec­ if their feet were on the ground Instead trician's feats.

The company have sola their old engine, which' is a ter larger one than they need, and will put in a new Russell, 150-horse power en­ gine in’its place. This will give them plenty of power and will be more economical to run. A new dynamo was recently installed so that the company 1flow has its own lighting plant. Elder VanAuken’s genial counten­ ance was more smiling than usual Tues­ day. Two happy couples presented themselves at his residence for mar­ riage at tbe'same 'Jme. The worthy dominie must have tnought that it wan a pretty good Bay for weddings; but we are not informed as to whether he made any discount from regular rates on ac­ count of the wholesale business or not.

Collins of Orangeville; and Mr. Ed­ win Thomas aqd Miss Nettie J. Bunn, both of Freeport. After twenty days of darkness the electric current was again turned on at Nashville Tuesday and tbe business □sen of that town were made to rejoice by having once more a good electric light service. Ever since tbe burning out of the big transformer at Labarge only one-third of the usual current has been available. The company will pro­ vide against such accidents iu the fu­ ture by putting imanother transformer as soon as it can be obtained from the factory. Then in case of an accident to one machine the other will be avail­ able. The company have added seventyfive new customers in this citv alone during the past year and their busi­ ness is steadily growing. , IRRIGATION ITEMS. In studying the irrigation waters of Arizona Professor IL H. Forbes of the state experiment station finds that the mountain flood waters contain less salt and usually less silt than the flood wa­ ters from tbe plains. These latter re­ sult from the heavy downpours, which dissolve Immense quantities of alkali salts nnd carry them into the dralpage system. Low standing waters in all cases contain a higher thau average, proportion of salt, espe-lolly In the summer, because of concentration by evaporation. Alkaline salts accumulate In part from water In irrigated soils and in part are produced by reactions within the soil Itself. These salts are Injurious to the more susceptible crops and trees.

This lessens the concentration of the salts and renders them almost harm­ less. This may be done by growing crops upon affected grounds and Irri­ gating by means of a flooding system. Alfalfa Is a desirable crop for this purpose. If plenty of fresh water from rivers is available, sufficient amounts may be used to effect the al­ most entire removal of the salts. The “rise of the alkali” from the use of salty Irrigation waters may be con­ trolled in large part by deep irriga­ tion, especially through subsoller fur­ rows. This method economizes water by lessening surface evaporation and at the same time prevents the accu­ mulation of salts near the surface.
