Talk About Truth! Mr. Dairyman, before you take anybody’s word on the subject, try two or three ma of separators side by side and see for yourself who is telling the truth. The actpal “proof the pudding is in the eating,” you know, and it won’t cost you a cent to try a De Laval. We also call attention to the supposed list of Sharpies users, which IF correct and their' experience proves like some other Michigan users of the same make, the junk man will very1 shortly be working overtime. NOTE THE FOLLOWING From one of the most successful and experienced creamerymen in your state; 'Owosso, Mich., March 28rd, 1905? Mr. D. H. Green, Sterling, Michigan. Dear Sir: We will give you our experience with the Sharpies separators. We handled %. carload of them and wt got stuck up to our necks. They arc the roltencst and the meanest machines I ever saw, and with us they are practically no good. They look nice, are very neatly madeup, have lots of nice features and you would be tempted to deal with them, but in six month*, after you put them out you would wish they wete all in the hot place. It cost me from ten to fifteen hundred dollars for my experience and I am willing any other fellow should try them that wants to. If you would classify them with rattle boxes you would hit it exactly; 1 they will never be separators for any length of time. Yours truly, E. F.

I nmanuilis la f h.M *»4 4«lr Now that a revision of tho state con­ stitution has been authorized by vote of the people tho question as to tbe character of tbe convention to which will bo committed the duly Involved is a timely one. Already a movement has been started to secure a non-par­ tisan convention; and it ought to be en­ couraged. There Is no reason for ex­ cluding men from participation In tho work of tbe convention on account of politics. if tbe delegatos to the constitutional convention are divided in politics. There are certain tendenclea under­ lying the two great parties which enter Into all our fundamental laws, acting as checks and balances upon each Other. Our state aod national con illtutlocs are the resultant of these funda­ mental. opposing Ideas, and no doubt they owe tbelr practical aod valuable character to tho recognition of both theories of government—the theory that emphasizes the nation or tbe state as a unit, and the theory that insists upon tbe rights of the Individual as the starting point. Therefore it is logical to believe that if men of both tbe great political , schools combine to formulate a fundsmental Instrument for tbe government of the state, both theories will be recog­ nized In tbelr due proportions, and a constitution will be worked out having the vlrtuos’of both without tbe defects of either. Especially ought it to be feasible at tbo present time when partlsaoshlp la loosening Its bold upon men's minds tolbrlng about a non-par­ tisan convention.

Mr. and Mrs. Frank Sutherland, who live about five mile* northwest of the city in Irving, were called to the home of their daughter near Union City last Thursday afternoon by the death of one of their grandchildren in a moat startling manner. The three children of Frank Gould, who live* four mile* north of Union City, were playing in the woodshed about'll^X) o'clock In the forenoon. It began to sprinkle but no anxiety was felt about the children, a* it appeared to be nothing more than a passing shower.

Willie’* body bad been frightfully burned, 275 square inches bearing wit­ ness to the lightning'* consuming pow­ er. Burns extended the whole length of hl* body, running down one side a* far as the knee. On the other leg the burn continued, showing that the lightning jumped from one knee to the other. Hi* neck was broken a* well m hl* breast and one leg. Cyril also received frightful burns which cover about 175 square Inches of hl* body. Otherwise he received no Injuries and it I* thought ba will re­ cover. Tho youngest bov received no burn* at all.

Nearly the whole of * long cabinet session this week was devoted todtecussing tbe contemplated prosecution of tbe Standard Oil company on tbe strength of the report that hu been made by Commissioner of Corporations Garfield ou the discriminations practlced In tbe oil business, particularly lu tbe transportation of tbe oil by tbe railroads, it hMbeeu announced that tbe prooecutiou will be Instituted and special attorney's for lhe prosecution have been retained. Then tbeques­ tion of ho* the Standard Is going to meet the situation. Thte will not be the first time the glam company has been lu the courts, and It bm always had money enough to buy the Mat brains on the market and thus effect­ ually defeat any attempt on the part of the government to curb It or exact even approximate justice from it. There are rumors of prosecution flying very thick just now. Tho Inter­ state commerce commission promises to have something hot served up after they gel tholr testimony arranged for the first volume oo the coal and oil carrying railroads. It is said that thoj are going gunning for a railroad tire® Idem. It was somewhat significant that none of the railroad president* wore subpoenaed to appear before the commission during Its recent siltings. There was toward the end of lhe hear­ Ings a general invitation issued for any railroad president* who wished to come forward and tell all they know. It appeared that none of them wished, for none of them camo forward. There was no legal command to appear served on them, and thu* if there should be any proceeding* Instituted and if more miraculous still there should be a conviction, they could not exca|»e via .he “Immunity baih" route. The hearings of the Interstate com­ merce commission are now concluded for the summer end while there I* not, much ground still to be covered, the first section of their report will prob­ ably not be ready till fall. The last witness they had on lhe stand till* week was an interesting old gentle­ man named Gardner, oce of lhe vice presldentsof four coal companies owned by the Erie railroad. He said that the Erie owned tbe four companies as they drew from them about half ot the 3,000 000 tons of coal that they conrtmed each year. Then he went on to tell the commission a few things from lhe railroad point of view about owning coal mines. Bo said he bad been iA> expert in tbe coal buxines* since tho days of the old Hayden Survey and that he had worked In thermo capac­ ity for Atchison, Topeka and Santa’Fe, the Rio Grand Western and some other roads that he was now working for the Erie. He wa* aconsulting coal expert. He said that the road depended pri­ marily on it* fuel supply being regular, certain and cheap. This he said could be accomplished only by the railroad* owning their own mines or the bulk of of "Sight and bulk, showed also how they were dyed and treated with chem­ ical* and la short made a pretty bad showing for a number of firms in the running to the Thornapple river lu ■aid city of Hastings according to the food producing business.

Soon aftei the French revo­ lution an old aristocrat wbo had es­ caped the guillotine by getting away In time went to New Orleans with hto only child, a daughter. Old Charlier The Round Oak Furnace before the reign of terror had supplied him with on income which the younger Chartier pieced out by gambling with otiiera of tho nobility. When ho came to America, broken down In ndnd and body, be eked out a small living by his skill In cords. About this time a Creole, Felix Duvol), came Into the poosewlon ot sev­ eral large plantntiomi. A man of the world, he denied himself uo luxury money could buy. One morning he saw Denise Charlier at tho flower market, where she hnd gone to sell some roses sbe bad cultivated, or, rather, which hud grown unassisted ta her father's little back yard. Duvoll purchased her roses and learned from her where she lived. He determined to possess the girl and went about It methodically. He made old Charlier's acquaintance. Invited blm to hto city residence, played cards with him and permitted blm to win quite a sum of money. Charlier Invited Duvoll to hto little house and Introduced him to Deutoc.

Then he adroitly Inti­ mated that If Denise were to lie ex­ posed in the slave market be would gladly give gSO.Ow) for her. Thus ho instdlouaiy put It into the old man’s head to gamble the girl against 130.000 at n game of cards. By this means Charlier saw himself In poascsalon of >30.000 and his daughter as well He considered Duvoll no match for him nt cards. And so it was agreed that if Charlier lost he should sign papers declaring that Denise, who was a brunette, had negro blood In her veins nnd that be had t*ought her of a negro trader. It was nlso agreed that be should sign a bill of sale for tbe girl. One day Denise entered the room where her father and Duvoll were playing nnd saw at once that nn un­ usual stake was being played for.

'r\ NEW BOARD OF EDUCATION • Commlsaloner J. C. Ketcham has recelved a letter from the superintendent of public Instruction In regard to tho question which hu been railed In setentl countle*. whether the county commisaiooer of schools will be elected under the primary election law in those counties that have adopted this system of nominstlog candidates for county officers. The superintendent has con­ sulted the attorney general concerning tho matter, his opinion being u follows: “I do not think it was tho lotent of tbo legislature to have the primary election law apply to the selection of candidate* for county office* except those to be voted for at tho Novombor election. Accordingly It I, my opinion that tho act does not apply io the com­ missioner of ochools and that the candi­ date should be selected lu the same manner ai that prescribed prior to tho passage o." the primary election law." The commlMloner of schools will therefore be chosen at the spring elec­ tion as heretofore.

For example tbe enlarge meat of the postal service and the ex­ tension ol the rural delivery system are exacting oonitamly locreatlog sums from the national treasury. Tbe stonily increasing appropriations for k b) improvement of harbors, etc. But after admitting that tbo neccsaitles of oar growing country require a constantly growing expenditure from ground for criticism on the score of ex­ travagance. The growth In expendi­ ture is out of all keeping with the Tbs machine in Barry county would be willing to break the two term rule and keep Senator Gla*gow In office two year* longer, but the Eaton county ma­ chine T* stronger than the Barry ma­ chine, and tbe latter hu yielded. Mr. Glasgow ha* announced that be will not be a candidate for a third term and lhe Banner speaking for the machine in this county, commend* him for bl* action and say* that the Eaton county man, Mr. Carl Keyes, of Olivet, will re­ ceive the hearty support of the republi­ cans of Barry. All of this Is very well Indeed, fiom lhe machine standpoint. What’s the use of having any offices unlew they can be passed around to the faithful?

By yielding to tbe inevitable the Barry county ring lias preserved "barmon.”,"uihe Banner so feelingly ob­ serves, and the beautiful rule by which the senatorial ofiico is handed back and forth every four years ba* been saved. We don’t know what tbe people would have done If this sacred principle of t«o-ierm* and out had been broken. But what of the new primary law? tail not supposed that lhe people have something to say hbout who shall be tbelr senatorial candidate when they go into the booths next September? At that time tbe republicans who lake part In tbe primary will be given a ticket with no other name upon it for Senator but that of Carl Keyes, the man whom the machine has agreed t > send to tbe senate In place of Mr. Glas­ gow. Supposing the voter* prefer to vote for somebody else, a* they have a right to do. They will not venture to use their right of choice, because there will be no other open candidate, and so they will vote for the man whom lhe machine has picked out.

True, many things may happen The Man In the Skiff [Original.] One dark night a skiff bearing n light tliat Illuminated a red flag drifted down the Allegheny river between tho Twin clUea." It moved with tbe cur­ rent. the sole occupant standing In the •tern, keeping It In tbo middle of tbs »trcam by mean* of a single oar In­ stead of a rudder. Tbe pilot of a ferry­ boat saw It aud rang to atop the en­ gine*. Though tbe skiff passed a bundnxl feet from tbe ferryboat's bow tbe pilot again rang, this time to back water. Ax the skiff floated on under a bridge the man lu tbe stern loftkod anxiously at the abuUr.enta and kept away, using bls oar for a paddle. He was watched from above by a little knot of people, who wondered at bl* anxiety to keep off from contact aud as to wbat was the load In the sklff'n waist covered with a tarpaulin, giving the effect of a coffin under a pall. A wheezy little steamer puffing up stream, an soon as her pilot caught eight of tbe red flag, turned to star­ board and gave tbe mysterious little boat a wide berth. Then the skiff drift­ ed past a wharf boot nnd passed very near IL A watchman with a lantern called to him to keep at a safer dis­ tance. ter* he could direct bl* skiff nearer to midwater It bad passed the wharf boat Coming to tbe mouth of tbo river where It meets the Monongahela the current took lhe little boat nearer to a steamer than was Intended. Indeed it passed along lhe steamer's side with­ in a dozen yards. There wa* a commo­ tion among Ihoso oi> watch on tbe steamer. A man. seizing n pole, made ready to shove the skiff off should it come within touch; another stood swinging a lantern, yelling to the skllT* pilot to stand away and enforc­ ing hl* order with n volley of oath*. Then tbe skiff passed out on to the bosom of la belle riviere nnd com­ menced Its descent. An hour later (be morning broke, and a steamboat ram* snorting down be­ hind tbe mysterious skiff. Tbe light bad been put out and tbo red flag taken lu. As tbe steamer passed tbe man lu (be skiff sang oat: "Gimme a lift.” "All rigid." grunted the captain from the hurricane deck. A ro|ie was thrown and the little boat taken in tow. All day the steam­ er towed tbe skiff. Toward evening n knot of men leaned over tho steamer's stern guard. Tbe man in tbe skiff saw them, bat a bat was pulled over bl* eyes and they could not see hl* face except bi* mouth, which wa* flnnly set. Buddeuly the steamer’s wheels stopped. The mnn in the skiff quickly thrust b<* onr Into tbo water beside hl* beat and commenced to pall backward hastily. He avoided even any contact with bi* tower, and those looking ou wondered why be wa* so cautions. Surely a slight bump would not have hurt him. Then they mused upon tbe corpse­ like burden. Was It a body? If so that wa* no reason for tbe steersman's timidity nt contact. Some thing must lie wrong with tbe little craft. Whatever we don't understand must be wrong. One of those who had been looking on went forward and Interviewed tbe cap­ tain, who camo aft and stood looking at tbe skiff. "Wbat'y’ got there?" be inquired gruffly.

Second—Without reference to party affiliation we desire unanimously to indorse and urge the appointment of the Honorable Clement Smith, Judge of the Fifth Judicial Circuit of this State, as his successor. For thirteen years Judge Smith has presided over this circuit and during all these years has discharged the duties of his trust with distinguished ability, fidelity and loyalty to both litigants and attorneys. The members of this Bar delight to do him honor and in so doing feel it but small return for the kindly interest and personal solicitude he has ever manifested for each and every member of the Bar. 02834566 is not only a luxury but a saving over any other kind of fuel.

Fourth—For many years Judge Smith presided over the largest circuit in the State, appointed by Governor Rich January 3rd, 1893, to succeed the Honorable Frank A. Hooker. He hd^ been elected at each succeeding election with increased majorities, often carrying every voting precinct in the counties of Calhoun, Eaton and Barn-. These tributes of the people to his worth indicate only in part the affection in which he is held by the Bar who are brought more closely to him. Commencing as an instructor in the Public Schools, a student in the University of the State, and later as Prosecuting Attorney, Probate Judge and Circuit Judge, his whole life has been spent in the betterment of his fellows.

As will be seen by reference to the proceedings of the common council last Friday night.tho council has taken up the project of paving, In earnest. A resolution which was unanimously passed authorises a special committee to bo appointed to ascertain the coat of paving with brick State street from the monument to tbe Barry hotel corner, Jefferson street from State tho dis­ tance of a block and a half south, and Church street from State to the Michigan Central track. The resolution provides that the city shall pay the cost of paving all street intersections and one fourth of tbe rest and the property owner* three fourths. Mayor Lowry lias Interviewed sev­ eral of the principal property ownenon State street who expressed a willingness to stand nil the expense ot paving In front of their own property. On the other hand there are some who are op­ posed to the project, but the mayor be­ lieves that the benefit that will accrue to the property owners and the value that good paving will be to the whole city will soon reconcile all to the prop­ osition. Ho estimates that the district above mentioned can be paved In tbe best possible manner for about *25,000. of which the city would pay about one half. ft is expected that as soon as the committee can prepare estimates as to the cost, a special election will be called for the purpose of submitting the question of bonding the city for the necessary funds. Then tho question will be up to tbe voters of the city. If it is carried bonds will be Issued and the project put through. All this preliminary work will take some time and it Is not likely that even if paving is authorized by the people the actual work can lie done before next spring. Before a brick is laid, it will be necessary to clear the street of lelebhone and electric light poles, and make all sewer, water and gas connec­ tions.

JAMES MoGUIREOFTHE NEW YORK AMERICANS HONORED. With Charles Baldwin Ha Was ■ Mem­ ber Of Battery Which Made Hasting* Famous. Tho presentation of a diamond locket to Jarno* McGuire, the veteran baseball catcher, by New York fans last Satur­ day, commemorating bls twenty-first year on the profeesfonsl diamond, will recall to the mind* of many residents of Hastings tho fact that Mr. McGuire first began to learn the game In thia city, as a member of tbe team, which in 1882, waa madejamous by tho pitch­ ing of Charles Baldwin, ono of tbe greatest left band pitchers in the his­ tory of baseball. The team of that year was composed of Charles Mason, John Rum. James Rock, Philip T. Col­ grove, Robert Greon, Frank Ackerson, Eugene Jordan, John McCord, Charles Baldwin, James McGuire. With Bald­ win and McGuire for its battery, tbe Hastings nine played some of the strongest professional and amateur team* In the coca try, among them be­ ing the Pittsburg Browns and the Western League team of Grand Rapids. Io those days a baseball team received excellent support In this city. The pitching of Baldwin, which brought to grief many strong teams, soon attracted the attention of man­ agers of professional team*. Tbe following year he waa signed by the Milwaukee team; McGuire then joined a team in Indiana. In 1884 both players were again a battery—this time with the Detroit National league team It was in Detroit that "Lady" Bald­ win, as he was known among tho fans, made a record in pitching which has been unsurpassed by Mstlbewton, McGinnlty, Cy. Young or any of the pres­ ent day stars In the box. Of the old Detroit champions, which included Bennett, Hanlon, Dan Broutbera, Sam Thompson—the last two re­ tiring from the game only a few years ago—James McGuire is the sole player to remain playing league ball. During his career he has caught In 1,549 league games, and in numberless amateur and exhibition games cf which no record ba* been kept. In baseball circles James McGuire, catcher of the New York Americans, Is considered one of tbe mo*t remarkable men in tho bu*lnass.

Must Renay the State >200.' Patrick -Heney, sou of Thomas Heney of Rutland, was committed to the Michigan Insane asylum March 11, 1889. At that time ho was considered to be a public charge within tbe mean­ ing and intent of the statute. In 1903 the law wu changed, providing that whenever financially able, the nearest of kin of a patient shall reimburse the stale for the maintenance ot a patient. Under this new- law the state bu been looking up many cases and requir­ ing people who have near relatives, such as child or parent, to pay the ac­ cumulated bill of the state for main­ tenance of such person. Acting under thia law and believing that Tbomu Heney wu Hable for the support of bi* son, tbe attorney-gen­ eral directed Prosecuting Attorney Pryor to begin proceeding* for the col­ lection of the state's claim of >3,134.50. The case wu tried before Judge Mack last Thursday, AMlstant Attor­ ney General Arthur P. Hicks and Prosecutor -Pryor appearing for the state, and Attorney Tho*. Sullivan for Mr. Heney. Testimony was given which showed that Mr. Heney wu not worth anything like what bad been claimed, his assessed property being •8890, from which he derives a scanty income- Mr. Heney B78 years old, a veteran of the civil war and a hard working man. Moreover it wu shown that hl* son has been able to work all these year* so that *« a matter ot fact, he hu not been burdensome to the state.

All doctors know that juwt before death the patient often experiences what Is called a "rally," nature making apparently her last stand against tho symptoms which we call death, and It la quite likely that the feeling which Induces men to boast of health Is of the same kind—an effort of nature to pro­ tect us ngnlust tbe coming sickness which the body has recognised, though the mind has not. The phenomenon occurs every day In tbe cases of con­ sumptive patients, who brighten up and grow hopeful Just when the disease to about to strike Its hardest blows, and it Is quite possible that It Is more frequent than has yet been recognised that the approach of fever, for exam­ ple, is signaled by an unusual con­ sciousness of health. "I have never dent, wbo twenty-four hours after la lying prostrate nnd whose friends quote bls statement as lllustratlug once more the ancient and depressing belief. Tbe boast bad nothing to do with the Illness, but It precedes! II. and men. at­ tracted by the violent contrast, almost Instinctively link the two together as In some way snd to some extent cause and effect Next time those wbo heard It. It they feel tliat rush of health In their veins, will avoid boasting of It. and the relation of the two will escape attention. Moreover. It must not lie forgotten that boasting Is of Itself a sign of weakness, either temporary or permanent, and that consequently fail­ ure follows boasting more frequently than It follows silence.

This bridge, tbe greatest railway en­ gineering triumph of Africa, deserves more than passing notice. It consists of a central span weighing approxi­ mately 1.000 tons. GOO feet In length nnd 30 feet wide. Tbe steel work Is of rolled steel weighing 4!K> |>ounda to the cubic foot. The end posts of the bridge are over 100 feet long. The puli on Ihe anchorage apparatus is about 400 tons. The contract for the construction waa obtained by nu English Ann of bridge builders-the contract time fifty-five weeks. The work of erection .was car­ ried on from both banks, the material being taken ncrow the river by means ot nn aerial electric railway. The elec­ trical conveyor of this cable way was capable of dealing with n ten tun load nt n lifting speed of twenty feet per minute and n traversing speed of 300 feet a minute. An Initial difficulty In tbe construc­ tion ot the bridge was tho securing of n linn foundation, nnd owing to the crumbling nature of tbe bank n much greater quantity of concrete wits neces­ sary than estimated. Hie construction was happily unat­ tended by accidents of n serious nature, though n few slight accidents to body­ work mid -the replacing from England of one piece of steel work were record­ ed.

Some people think, for Instance, tha,t political speeches do not matter. Po­ litical speeches matter far more than tbe acts of parliament which they In­ troduce. Men care lets even about wbat Is being done than about why It Is being done. The spirit In which a thing Is effected is of fnr more practi­ cal Importance even than the thing It­ self. Tills can be tested by tbe simple experiment In social life of removing a gentleman's hat for him, first In one spirit, then In the other.

The season has one great novelty In store for the public—a novelty that has been awaited with Impatience, a novel­ ty of which great things are expected, and a novelty which cannot fall to ful­ fill all tbe hopes and expectations that are heard regarding It. This novelty Is the dramatization of Mrs. Maty J. Holmes' popular novel, “Lena Rivers,” which Is to be seen for the first lime at popular prices al the opera house next Monday night. The sale of seats for the presentation of the play promises to be very large. Since the announce­ ment was made of the production of the play here at popular prices, there have been numerous Inquiries regard­ ing it. They all lend to show tbe enormous amount of interest that Is being taken in the play. Great care has been exercised in preserving all the atmosphere of tbe book In the play. This and tbe novel's characterizations have been among the book's chief charms. Miss Beulah Poynter has giv­ en much thought und careful study to tbe part of “Lena Rivers,” and her portrayal of the character is described as beautiful As a play “Lena Rivers” has an immense success, and In all likelihood It will live and he popular for many years. Miss Poynter will be sup­ ported by an excellent cast of twelve, including Burton Nixon, Alice Lledley, Ted V. Armond. Eleanore Marion, Nettle Louden, Sada Steelsmith, Ed­ Mrs. W. J.

TOOK HIS INVALID WIFE TO THE WEST FOR RELIEF. Determined Effort Led Gilbert Saun­ ders to Try Every Cllmete From Seattle to New Mexico. Gilbert Saunders who recently re­ turned from a western trip where he took bis wife In search of a healthful climate, but brought her back to Kala­ mazoo just in time to die, had Indeed a wide and a pathetic experience. Mrs. Saunders was suffering from tuberculo­ sis and the journey through the weetern country was a continued effort to find a climate that would stay the dread dis­ ease. He took her to Seattle, last No­ vember. But It was the rainy season of tbe year and the constant rains and chilly winds were not favorable to one in Mrs. Saunders' condition. So they went In February, to Rockwood, Colo­ rado, a place in the mountains, 19,900 feet above tbe level of the sea, where the snow was six feet deep. Fourteen days of this climate proved that Ita rigor was too severe for his patient, »o he took her to Durango, Col., where he hoped the hotspring* would bo efficaCiOUf. Again ho was disappointed and again he sought a change of climate. This time it was Arizona that attracted him, but tho dry. sandy soil, and the winds were found to be futile to help her. Thence he went with her to New Mex­ ico, and about the first of March, back to Duiango and Pueblo. Ogden and Salt Lake City In Utah were next sought, but no relief came from tho change. Finally they re­ turned to Seattle, and on the fifth of July, their thoughts and longings for old Michigan, started them back on the long journey home, where the fast fall­ ing patient wanted to be when the end should come. They arrived in Kalama­ zoo a few days later aod on the 18th Mrs. Saunders breathed her last. Mr. Saunders Is a carpenter by trade and as he Is not a malt of large means, the effort which he made to save bis wife, the long and expensive journey­ ing*, totalling between eight and nine thousand miles, represent sacrifice and devotion such as sometimes brighten the dark pathways of life. Mr. Saunders happened to be lu Portland at tbe time of Hie earthquake and went down to San Francisco to *ee the sights. After witnessing the do»olatlon and ruin which bad come to tbe great city, bo I, of tbe opinion that San Francisco will never recover lu former greatness and prosperity. Michigan Central Excursions.

The application of such c layer to the cheese not only prevents tbe growth of mold spores by excluding tbs air, hut materially re­ tard* the rate at which the cheese loses Its moisture. Paraffined cheese, there­ fore. dries out much more slowly than the untreated product, and the appllcation of this method Is of particular Service In the handling of the smaller types of ebeesea, which have n relative­ ly larger *ti|>ertlc!al area exposed to the air.

The quickest way to coo) milk I* to have It flow lu thin layera over a cold surface, but thia la generally not practical to a fanner. The method 1 advise to patrons In my district I* n* follow*: A tank or trough of some kind In required to hold cold water, and In tills water tbe cam containing the milk are placed. Each strained Into these cans, which should not be too large. By tbe time all the milking Is done the milk will be fairly cool, but tbo water will have necome warmed and will have to lie run off and more cold water put on in It* place. 'Dlls should puj the tempera­ ture down to &5 degrees, but renew tbe water a* often a* necessary. All the work then required Is to stir the milk occasionally In order to Insure n uniform temperature throughout. If you have Ice to put In the water yuu can *ee bow much better It will be and how much lalwr It will nave you. When Uie milk la cooled cover the cans with a clean, wet blanket, oue end of which la left In the water nnd. acting ns n wick, aids in maintaining the cool temperature and also prevent# tbe cream from drying. If you have a well or. a spring to ijpt tbe can* in they wlllnnswer the purpose well, but lie Having purchased the interest of Mr. Andrews, I beg to aanounce to the people of Hastings; aud vicinity that I will continue to carry a full line of It Is cooling, so that the center will not remain warm and the outer parts only be cooled. Again, let me *y cool tbe milk Juul ns soon a* possible after drawing It from the row to below K degrees, and keep it there until It la time to send It to tbe factory on Monday morning. Do not add Sunday morning'# milk to that' of Saturday night hnleas It has been first cooled ta as cold a temperature a* that of tbe night's milk. and shall try to merit a continu-i ance of the liberal patronage re­ ceived in the past.

At the compreu which we visited the clerk in charge told us that their beet day’s work bail iieen 1030 bales in 8'4 hours, a statement which shows that rapid movements are not entirely con­ fined to our section of the countryFrom this time oh follows tbe grading of the cotton, which is done by an ex­ pert. each bale being sampled by itself, tbe quality and hence the price de­ pending largely upon the length of the staple and its whiteness. To guard against any error the reccrd of each tale is kept by an accurate system of checking . so every grower is se­ cured in making hl* salt*. As might bo supposed in lhe hand­ ling of cotton there is always danger from tire. «□ that the insurance regu­ lations In regard to work -ind con­ dition* at gin • and at the compressed are rigid indeed. The disposal of cotton Is one of the many marked illustrations offered by tho industrial world of the fundamental law;-That financial sucee** i* largely dependent upon tho disposs) of waste product *. As has teen stated tbe ginning of ertton results in two products, the staple and tho seed. The latter was formerly an entire waste, but today nothing of the cotton plant is lost nn]eM it lx, tbe stalks and leaves, and these are usually returned to the soli a* a compost. Accordingly side by side with tho gins Zand compresses there spring up the oil mill*. R my pleasure this same afternoon to visit one of these, and a meet inter­ attacked, four esting place I found it. Of co'urao at this time of year it is "vacation" In the cotton industry, as picking doe* not corotnenee until .September or Oc­ totar continuing into December.

When the seed has been removed from tbe cotton, it still retains a short cos* of tbe fiber giving it a grayish color and making it look a* if it had l*en closely sheared. Tho first step in the treatment of the '■rough" seed is to screen it, a very necessary step as results seem to justify, for many and varied are tho unsecdlik<bodiea there­ by retnuved, » fact so Important that tho bands in charge of the screening prefer to work at moderate wages rather than lose the opportunity of rescuing "plunder" from the miscellany that invariably Is found daring this process. The next step is the passing of the seed through tho linters which are sim­ ilar to the gins but with the plates tearing the teeth placed much closer together. By tnl* process even lhe start fiber that has thus far adhered to tbe seed is removed. Of course lhe resulting staple la very short and fur­ nishes a very low grade of cotton, still it is worth something, and finds a market in tho felting mills In the north. Tho seeds are now cracked and the hulls or shells removed; but still no waste, m will to seen later. The meats are now cooked nnd then put under a powerful pneass. by which the oil Iu which they are rich, is oxtractei, leaving the meats in the cakes about two or three feet long. 20 inches wide and about an inch In thickness. At this stage the product is known as oil cake, and in the form of these slate It is sent to foreign markets. For home con­ sumption lheXcake is ground, forming the well known oil meal, nnd this lat­ ter with the hulls from the seeds forms a most important stock food. The meal isshlp|«din 100 pound sacks which tear upon them an authorized analysis of their contents. Bough seed brings from eight to 12 dollars a ton. and each ton is estimat­ ed to produce alwut 87 gallons of oil. StXI pounds of meal. 7W of hulls, anl ■Wjof linters. The receiving of the seed must of Itself te a busy scene when the season is at its height, as the average daily receipts nt the mill we visited are KO tons while as high as I5<> tons have I’cen a day's receipts, which however is an unusual occur­ rence. As one lakes u brief mental review of these associated industries, be can­ not hut arrive at tho conclusion that it would be hard to find a more perfect utilization of the products of a crop, than is shown In tbe case of cotton. Like all farm crops, cotton responds to care in cultivation and seed selec­ tion, so that good judgment and intell­ igence will and are tenofittlng the loutbern farmer as well as his brother of tho north. One of the wost imperative necessi­ ties of a southern town is to have a ready supply of ice, and as Mother Nature does not furnish the supply for Louisiana that she does for Michigan, artificial means have to be used. Ac­ cordingly our next point of interest was the Opelousas Ice Factory. Of such a place 1 had often read and taught, but 1 soon realized that no illuttartion of au object Is quite si good as tho objeet itself. Tbe manufacture of ice depend* up­ on tins simple fact I list if a gas is compressed, as in the case <>f air in a bicycle pump, it gives off heat; and If a gas which Is under pressure be al­ lowed to expaifil quickly it ateorte large amount of boat, as is shown by the use of carbon dioxide in freezing loo cream. Tho gas used in an ice factory is usually ammonia, the well known gas which escapes from tbe ammonia so­ lution bought for household purjxwra. This gas is easily compressed, as the compression of gases goes. Still strong machinery Is needed for tho purpose. This process of compression changes tbe ammonia as it does all gases to a liquid. When things are done on a large scale features otherwise not much in evidence become very noticeable. The slight warmth lo tbe bicycle pump is replaced by a temperalure from the compressed ammonia gas. which makes the conveyors too hot to be touched. Tbe hot liquid ammonia is now led to the roof of the building where it is cooled by water trickling over a set of pipes through which it is caus’d to flow After cooling it is then conducted down to the freezing room. At tbe first sight on entering this room the floor looked like one great checkerboard. each square tel ng marked by an iron ring at one side fastened to a staple. 1 toon discovered that what seemed to ho a floor wax really the covering of a large tank filled with very strong hrine, and that each of these •qnaros was but a trap door opening into this tank beneath. Throughout thia tank uf brine ran another set ot pipe* conveyingtbe tank tbe pressure i* released from 180 to 15 pounda to tho square inch Consequently a great expansion takes place and a large amount of heat ia stieortied. A*'the pipe* pas* through the brine beat is absorbed from it. But thia on account of its strength does not freeze, although it* temper tore may approach pretty well toward* zero. Through each one of tbe trap doors previously mentioned a small galvan­ ized tank containing distilled water is lowered Into tbe brink below. About 2d hours later the content* of thl* tank weighing 3» pounds. These tanks with their frozen con­ tents are removed from the cold brine and allowed to stand on the floor of the freezing room that tbev may gradually placed under a small stream of tepid comes loosed from the walls of the the storage room on tbe floor below. Care must tie taken in the warming process. If allowed to warm too rap­ idly the ice cake would break up, rendering it more troublesome to be handled, as was shown us for our benefit. By this Jime my bead was in a whirl ot commercial processes and at a suggestion from my host I read­ ily assented that we had seen quite enough to think about for one after­ noon. But 1 could not go away without a feeling of genuine indebtedness to my kind host and to those in charge of every place of business we visited who lost no opportunity of miking our visit as pleasant and interesting as such a visit could lie made.

Long live tliedouma!" ho undoubtedly voiced the sentiment of all friends of liberty tbe world over. It was a remarkably rash and Improper thing for a premier of Great Britain to do, and of course has tended to produce a coolness be­ tween St. Petersburg and London. Nevertheless tbe outrageous, tyranni­ cal course of the czar in dismissing tbe popular assembly because of its manly fight for tbe right* of the common peo­ ple of Rural*, and bls apparent deter­ mination to revert to the old policy of brutal repression, instead of encourag­ ing the effort to bring about constitu­ tional government, has warranted all the world in denouncing his puslllaol- Tbe diaeolutlon of tbe douma has pre­ cipitated a most dangerous crisis In Rural* aud tho world has been looking for a general revolution to follow the czar't act of defiance. So far, however, tbe expected has not happened al­ though the leaders of the revolutionary party are trying their best to bring on a general uprising. The explanation of tbl* failure of the people to rise against autocratic authority muat be found io the terror which the govern­ ment ia able to Inspire in the minds of Ila enemies by reason of iu military strength and brutal promptness in sup­ pressing every hostile movement. Nevertheless, tbe principle of repre­ sentative government for which tbe douma stood, can not be Ignored, nor destroyed. Tbe initial step toward* constitutionalism which Nicholas took pie's representatives, can not be re­ traced. Revolutions do not move back­ wards, and though tbe vigor and vigi­ lance of the czar's forces may prevent Wheo a state convention ba* met In deliberation and io a perfectly fair and honorable manner chosen a standard bearer for tbe coming campaign, there can be no reason why loyal members of th* party thus represented should not accept the result In good part and stand by tho ticket placed in Domina­ tion. Tbe democratic convention In Detroit last Thursday came under the condition* wo have named. Though not so large in number* and demonstrallvoness as the republican conven­ tion of lhe day before. It was never­ theless a* earnest and honest a body of men. as loyal to the interest* of the state, a* sincere in purpose. as devoted to principle a* its adversary, and It certainly was inorc self-sacrificing, more unselfish. For there is nothing in the situation that justifies the demoreais of Michigan In tho hope of suecess thl* fall. The ticket placed in nomination by tho democratic oarty, therefore, de­ serves to be supported by every demo­ crat In Michigan. True, the nomina­ tion of Mr. Kltnmerle will not bring enthusiasm and confidence such as Woodbridge N. Ferris Inspired two year* ago. True Mr. Kltnmerle can­ not honestly be said to be as strong a man as some other democrats that might have been named. But II mutt be borne In mind that other dcraotrau declined to accept the responsibility, while Mr. Kimmerle has shown the courage to take up the standard ot democracy and bear it to the front, He is to a large extent au untried man, for his political career has not been especially prominent. He may prove as able, ns (earless, as Inspiring a lead­ er as lhe Big Rapids school master would have been. At any rate tho duty of democrats Is to accept the re­ sult of tbe convention in good part, and stand ready to support every effort to advance tbe principles and the welfare of the party. Who knows but what Charles H. Kimmerle may prove to be ju«l the right man In the right place? WITHOUT entering Into tbe merits of tbe ruction between Daniel J. Campsu and tbe Wayne county democratic politicians It may at least be said that the strained situation U unfortunate aud we hope It will soon be mitigated. Mr. Campsu has been an Indefatigable A Goo* Platform. worker In the cause of democracy ever since ISIMk, be has given his be*t efforts, Tbe pisiform edopted by the demo­ crat* at Detroit ought lo be and no bls time and hl* money for the causeall unselfishly.

Virtue of Iberia, O., in the Auto Advocate and Country Roads Outside of the Incorporated village* there are perhaps ten or twelve miles of pike and somo Indifferent gravel rpads. Mostly the roads are earth roads, which in many months are equivalent to mortar beds. However, toe number of people who advocate good roads Is steadily Increasing, so that the enemies of good roads now say. "Something of the kind will be done sooner or later." They hope that It will bo later on account of an In­ crease in taxation which would neces­ sarily follow. My *dea of what should lx done here (Morrow county) b some­ thing os follows: • In this township—In fact, all over this county—there I* an abundance of sandstone of the kind commonly spo­ ken of a* Berea grit; also a good supply of fair quality gravel. Now, If toe roads were well graded nnd ditched with good large culverts where cul­ verts are needed and on earth track constructed at one side and a broken stone and gravel track at the other, we would have good roads comparatively cheap. Of course thl* sandstone and gravel road should Ito well rolled as It 1* laid down and when finished only slightly higher than tbe earth track. I nui well acquainted with too lime­ stone pike roads built In rycent years In two adjoining counties—Marlon and Crawford—and know that most of them are built too high and too thin nnd are not rolled. Being loose, they rut Immediately. Being high. It Is not easy to drive from one track to an­ other. and they spread easily. And be­ ing thin I fear they will not stand service well. As to cost. 1 believe good sandstone nnd gravel roads can be built In this region for $1,300 per mile. I think thl* should be Itonie by the adjoining prop­ erty owner*, the township, the county uud the state, each paying 25 per cent of cast, aud then maintained by the township. A* to the United States gov­ ernment paying a part, let the govern­ ment pay ope-balf the cost of con­ structing good roads of double width (about twenty feet) between points of military Importance.

Truly, For the conviction of any one fishing illegally In Thornapple lake or in the river within five miles of the lake, a re­ ward of $25 will be paid by the Thorn­ apple lake Protective association which wa# recently organized by a large number of fishermen residing in Barry and Eaton counties. Tbe organization is the direct outcome of wholesale vi­ olations of laws protecting fish nut only In Thornapple lake but also In other lakes in Barry county. The fishermen interested in Thornapple lake fishing grounds were the first to unite to make a strong campaign against violators. Notices have beer, posted about the lake proclaiming the reward. It is stated upon good authority that nets are commonly used In the lake and that one person has this summer already shipped to market 1000 pounds of fish so taken. The members of the organization are en­ thusiastic workers in the movement. Den Donovcn of Charlotte Is presi­ dent, and D. J. Hopkins of Nashville secretary. It is to be hoped that the organization will spread to include in membership every fisherman in the county, and for the protection of every lake In the county. No county In the state contains belter lakes than Barry. Every year they $re being depleted with spear and net by those who regard prohibitory laws with contempt. These violations are bold and wholesale. Few arrests are made because neigh­ bors and acquaintances hesitate to tell upon each other. The services of the fish and game warden* are iusNequate because the state fails to offei sufficient compensations for their continuous ser­ vices. An examination of boats exclud­ ing those to let at resort# on lakes in Barry county, particularly on tbe smaller and more secluded lakes, will Once more the old soldiers of Barry county have stormed and captured the fair grounds where they have set up their tents and gone into camp. Once more the grizzled veterans aro togeth­ er to recall the stirring days of Ml to '65, to renew old acquaintances and to lake account of comrades gone during the year. Too promineut a feature, in­ deed, Is the last of these purposes be­ coming, as the years roll by. There are not so many tents on the ground this year as usual, the condi­ tions of camp life, we presume, becom­ ing almost too strenuous for many of the old soldiers and their families. In­ stead of tents many are utilizing the buildings on the grounds. About nine­ ty hud enrolled on the soldiers* list and nearly as many on the loyal ladies' list up to this morning. At the opening program yesterday afternoon Mayor Lowry made an inter­ esting and patriotic address of wel­ come, Dr. Lathrop read the necrology for the year, his report being confined to the deaths of inembers of the Death Benefit Association.

Ordinarily there l» passed out through The kidney* and through the skin a* much chloride of sodium as we take In our foci. The amount tak- thin of an ounce lo an ounce, some IH-ople using as much a* an anno* of •alt In a day. The patient wa* In that dropsical condition peculiar to this dis­ ease In Its advanced stage. It wcurred to the physician that as the imtieut was eliminating very little salt it might be passible that salt was accumu­ lating In hl* tissues and that the wa­ ter was accumulating In tire tissues to dissolve the salt. So be determined to eliminate from tlie tmtieut'* diet all the salt except that naturally found In food*. He placed the patient on a debydrochlurlnated diet, and tiie dropsy disappeared ,-niliwly lu three days. Thinking that ibis might tie an acci­ dent. tbe doctor permitted tbe patient lo return to the use of salt, and In three day* the dropsy had returned. Halt wa* withdrawn again, and the dropsy disappeared; replace! again, and tiie dropsy returned.

Are there not thousand* of people wearing out their kidney* and their Ilves, bringing themselves down prematurely to a point where Bright's disease will prey upon them, where arteriosclerosis (hardening of tbe arterlqsi will be Induced because of tbe accumulation of tissue poison* within tbe body? Are there not thou­ sands dj Ing from the excessive use of salt? There is no doubt of It A very little salt may be used without any s|H>clal detriment t > health, but the use of salt in food hi such quantities that the flavor of It can Im* distinctly tasted Is certainly harmful. T?ie natural salts are particularly abundant tn vegetable foods, hence these require the least seasoning with salt. altliougiUn general they are the ones most commonly treated to an overabundance of It. A well baked potato Is perfectly palata­ ble without salt if one has become ac­ customed to it* flavor. A parsnip, a turnip, a carrot, spinach or anything else of like nature requires no salt, tn-cauM* these foods already hare a larger amount of salts than any other kind of food.—J. H. Kellogg. M. D..

Experiments have Iweu made upon animals in which Bright'* disease bad been produced ar­ tificially. and the result has been the demouafratlon It-yond any possible question that the dropsy of Bright's disease of tin- kidneys and certain terms of heart disease Is due to the use of chloride of sodium - common salt.

The Kissing of Auat Agnes (Original.) Consequently 1 am familiar with the sign language. When I was a young fellow my brother John and I would frequently converse with our fingers in company wben wo did not care to be overboard. Wo lived in a auburban place, and. going to and from tbe city, we usually used tills method of communication. Ono afternoon when wo were going home together, after taking our seats In the car. a young woman with two little children and n negro nurao came In, aud. turning tho back of o seat to face tbo one In the rear, they occu­ pied both, tho children and nurse In tbe seat facing the front, while the lady used the other, sitting nest the passageway, sucking the band bag­ gage near the window. This brought her face to face with John and me. She was very pretty and so young that we wondered that she could be the mother of the children. Then we heard quo of them call her Aunt Ag­ ues. She had scarcely been seated when I signaled John: •'Pretty enough to kiss. Isn’t she?" "Yon bet" "Wonder what station she getq off. atr I asked. “Watch ber ticket when the con­ ductor comes round and yon'll see.” "I've been trying to catch her eye Io find out if she'll flirt, but she won't let me."

I watched tbe landmarks before reaching tbe tunnel, nnd ns we came nearer my heart beat like a kettle­ drum. One after another familiar ob­ jects sped by and nt last wc plunged Into darkness.

Second.—After filling a temp both lhe burner and tho reservoir should al­ ways be carefully wiped free from oil films. Third.-When a temp te not burning it te well to keep tbe wick a little be­ low the top of the tube. This helps to prevent oil from working over upon tbe burner and reservoir. Fourth.—Fill your temps as often as they are used. Especially do not light a temp when the oil te low in tho reser­ voir. Fifth.—Remembering that even ex­ plosive vapor cannot do barm unless In some way It actually comes In con­ tact with a flame, never use a burner which fits loosely upon the rest of tbe temp. A Ioom joint may leak vapor, which 1a llxcly In turn to bo drawn up Into the flame. not fit the tube provided for IL Seventh.—Never blow out a kerosene fiamo downward.

Tbe day before tbe boat was to sail bo fixed up a telegram calling Harold Strong to Philadelphia to see about painting tbe portrait of a millionaire. The artist's return was indefinite. behind him, nnd he knew that tbe Co­ lonial Damo, as tho craft wns called, would scarcely have come i^tncbor tu the bay and the moon risen ydxirc tbe waters when that cheeky sculptor would be talking soft nonsense to Ruth Bascomb. but tbe artistic spirit was strong within him.

Are they so eel dab that they care nothing for tbo Buffering! of tbelr fellow mon who live in other parts of the world? When San Francisco waaorerwhelmcd with awful calamity tbe American people exhibited such kindness and benevolence towards their unfortunate fellow citizens aa the world has seldom seen. Trains loaded with provisions and supplies of every conceivable kind were soon rolling into San Francisco from every part of the Union, and millions of dollars were freely contri­ buted and forwarded to the relief committee, to be expended la the alle­ viation of suffering and for tbe rehabi­ litation of tbe shattered city. And now a similar disaster has visi­ ted the Chilean city of Valparaiso and ths people of that once prosperous me­ tropolis are in as dire distress m were tbe San Franciscans In April. Their emergency calls for the same prompt and adequate measures of relief as we Americans gave to our own afflicted friends In tbelr urgent need. And yet the United States has thus far contri­ buted only a paltry MOW towards the relief of the South American earth­ quake sufferers, and tbe president, It to announced, will make another appeal to tbe people ot the United State* for tbe relief of these sufferers. What to the reason of this striking difference lathe spirit shown by the people of the United States towards fellow beings la deep distress? Is It be­ cause tbe one case appealed to their patriotism while the other does not? Is it because tbe Callforolaos are our own fellow citizens while the Chileans are bo the explanation. But a more plaus­ ible theory Is one bated upon a general irate of human nature. Men do not usually concern themeelves deeply with events that occur in a distant part of ths earth. Even great calamities do practical extent unless they happen suffering that domes under our Indivi­ dual observation to apt to an I tot our sympathies and charitable efforts more strongly than a great disaster that So, while our present Indifference to the suffering of Valparaiso Is not •ocnmendable II may bo accounted for by thio general tendency of ell of us to forge*, or Ignore the misfortunes of UCT with them. was a precocious youth and fairly well •duel ted. tie duxt as poealble. because this dart throat and may act up catarrh.

But PROF. SUN LIN has accomplished it, and “King Bill” per­ forms tricks which surpass belict, and which were the sensation of the great Barnum & Bailey’s and Forepaugh’s show. This one exhibition alone will be worth Hie price of admission to the ground as the bull fires pistols, climbs chairs, jumps hurdles . with his trainer on his back, balances on a round stool six feet high—in fact does most everything but talk. will be exhibited at the fair. This is the only team of buffaloes ever known, broken to a harness. They are great runners, and have been star attractions wherever shown. I JIT HAS been the object of the officers of the Barry County Agricultural Society in ; || arranging the fair this year to please everybody. Lovers of fine stock of " every description will see an exceptionally fine display of stock. Poultry growers i will see some fine poultry. There will also be fine displays of grains, fruits and vegeJ tables of every description. Everyone fond of sports will see some fine races, while the j' time “between heats” will be taken up with some especially good special attractions, i There will be "something doing" all the time. With interesting farm exhibits, with , exceptional features in the way of special attractions, with good racing, fine music, , good speaking, the officials believe the fair this year will be one of exceptional merit, । and the people of Barry county can look forward to a great week of instruction, profit, । recreation and amusement for everybody, both old and young.

It is a sad but true fact that too often the progressive members of a board of supervisors are hampered by back namber members In whom tho practical develops into genuine fourteen carat peuuriousnrea. A clock in tbo court bouse lower can be heard by anyone wbo happens to listen to it. Il will bo an improvement in any way distinctive, when compared with what we can see in other counties. A clock in a public building Is one ot its com­ monest and least neglected equipments. Barry county is pro.pe.oin, Its erpendlturas are not grail. No county in tba state with a like population can toOM of a baodaomer court bouse, and no where in tbe state can more beauti­ ful ground! be found about a public building. l&O If the people of Barry county cannot afford a clock with Illuminated dials such aa tbe court bouse lo Eaton county U furnished with, cannot the supervisors at least provide them with THE ROAD DRAG. After waiting nearly two months for a bridge which cost the township of Rutland 1700 cash, lhe officials of tbe town got out a civil warrant Saturday aud a criminal warrant Monday for W. H. Chidester, a bridge agent from De­ troit, who bas been living In this city. Sheriff Furnlss made a futile search for him Saturday, and he learned that tbe man he was looking for had disap­ peared. Highway Commissioner Myers aod Town Clerk Sheffield wore the mao wbo made the complaints. They purchased for 1100 Iron bridge tubes for streams In the town from Chidester an July 27. it Is alleged that Chides­ ter Mid lhe materials wire already loaded on cars in Chicago ready to ship. It Is alleged also that he repre­ sented to the officials that the Central Machinery and Supply Co. of Chlcagu had drawn a sight draft on him 1700. They gave him an order which he cached at tbe National bank. The bridge did not arrive, though Chidester was hopeful and told thorn that It would come. Afters while they began to be suspicious of Chidester’s promises and engaged the services of Colgrove 4 Potter. Mr. Colgrove went lo Chicago to Investigate, last week. He found that Chidester bad ordered oo bridge from tbe Central Machinery and Sup­ ply Co. Ho telegraphed to Mr. Potter at whoso Instance Mr. Myers got out a Issued ly Justice Riker Monday on complaint ot Mr. Myers who charged Chidester with hls signature to an or­ der by false pretenses.

If one has nut already dragged tbe road now b the time to be ghi-ln fact, any time Is a good time to begin. The method of making and using tbe drag and tho principle on which It operate* may be very wol) understood through the following state­ ment* from National Stockman: To maintain bard, smooth, oral earth roads practically throughout the year ill that is necessary Is to go over them with a drag after every heavy ralu In the spring, summer nnd fall, (’re tbe drag while tbo dirt Is In a puddled condition, so that the device will smear It down In n sort of layer.

All the forecast* which have reached Washing­ ton from Havana throughout the week bate been tinged with increaalog gloom. The atmosphere at tbe war ••e(*rtment, however, baa seemed to bo decidedly more hopeful. Whereas the news from Havana hu Indicated that nothing but an Intervention of the llrmeet and moat decided type would be of avail, Washington offlclals have profevsed at least to believe that interven­ tlob could come without necessarily be­ ing armed Intervention, It has been Intimated that this government could take charge In Cub* and establish a provisional regime with some sort of * Cuban figure-head for president, while tbo real business uf government was dictated from the warships In the harbor. This would bo very nice It Itcould be done. There Is no question of course, that marines could bo landed and pro­ tect interest* of all sorts In Havana, Santiago, Cleofuegos aod other Im­ portant coast towns. There would bo a certain advantage too In using marines and blue jackets for this work. .Ma­ rines are "dlplomatlo soldiers'* as they can be landed In a foreign country to protect Interests there without the same color of an Invasion as happens when an army Is sent for exactly the same purpose. There seems to be a sort of popular superstition that ma­ rines and blue jackets arc a part of tho ships to which they belong and their presence on shore is therefore regarded as temporary. Soldiers on the other hand carry with them tbe Idea of an Invasion, which may not, but I* more likely to be permanent. Therefore this government will use marines and blue jackets for protective purposes so long a* It can, but there Is a serious question whether the insurgents In the Interior will consent to stay good and refrain from looting plantations where the marines cannot get at ebrm.

W. K. Barber Write* Entertain­ ingly of Her Visit. Allow me space for a few word* about tbe sight* I have seen in North Dakota. I rode out of tbe city nine mile* across the prairie to visit * cattle aod grain ranch containing sixteen hun­ dred acre*, enclosed with a fence made of three galvanized barbed wire*-.fas> enod to ccder po»u. The ranch cooulna six cattle pastures, tbe smallest sixty acres and the largest 3W. Also a largo bog pasture all well watered by the James river. Plecty of forest |rees grow on the banks to supply tbe fuel for the family use and to spare. Tho ranch produced twelve thousand bushels of grain last year. Sixteen । mile* of wire fencing Is already In use on tho ranch. Two hundred head of cattle are now being fed for market. ’I have seen (HO acres of laud be­ longing to one mao all In wheat shocks and machines that thresh 1500 bushels In one day. It needs eight teams or as many more mon to draw the bundles and a number of team* to draw the grain to thu elevator* which aro locat­ ed In convenient places. Tho ma­ chine threshes about 50 acres and then Is moved to an other section, k ha* a blower studied to pile tho straw which is used for tbo fuel. They charge 10 cent* per bushel for threshing wheat and carry their kitchen and board with them. Tho grain rack* aro made box stylo, ten feet wide and sixteen long aod four high made of boards six inches wide and a foot space. The loader* remain on tho ground to prevent shelllog the grain. 1 hare picked flax out of a 100 acre field. That grain yield* as high as twenty bushel* per aero and sells for one dollar sure aod some years for more. It cost* fifteen cents per bushel for threshing. No forest tree* nor fences grow on the prairie*. 1 have seen the sun set behind the prairie which wa* beautiful. No win­ ter grain is sown here and the farm­ er* arc now plowing for the spring crops. Ono man with four horse* plows six acre* a day. Tbe Insane a*ylum is located ooe ball mile from tho city limit* on a high elevation which can lie seen for many miles, it ha* 500 acres of land which grows the grain. I rode along side of tbo garden which Is a nice field near the river. All kinds of vegetables arc raised Including celery. I was very politely shown through tho different buildings which arc all up-to-date and the rooms in perfect order. Tbe passage way* between the buildings aro all under ground, well ventilated with window* above tbe ground. There are very nearly 500 patiotl*. There are pleasant sitting room* with couches, rocker*, and musical Instruments for use. Visitors are welcome any day except Sunday. They have religious service* on that day.

The plain duty of this government is to carry out In good faltb, so far as It is possible, the condi­ tions of the Platt amendment. There is a possibility that the Cuban people may eventually be capable of govern­ ing themselves under a republican con­ stitution.

We have confidence in it, for we never had a dissatisii customer yet. After using it they come back and say morel its praise than we did when we sold it to them. Of course, there are multitudes of cheaper stoves, but what satisfaction or comfort is there in using them, they cannot last long not being heavy enough nor made good enough to be durable. Why a Round Oak after 15 or 20 years’ service will sell for more second-haud than the cheap stove costs ou the start. The ROUND OAK is moderate in price and is worth every cent of its cost.

Lack of resource*, lack of organization, lack of that fooling of hopefulness which I* so potent a factor to running a spirited campaign, have made the task of the democratic leaders, a heavy aud uninspiring one. Candidate Klm­ merle baa Indeed proved loyal to the duly placed upon bim aud If be doea not succeed lo winning tho battle, he will have demonstrated his courage and hla vigorous fighting qualities. No one can say that be Is not an honest, outspoken, sincere and clean cut cham­ pion of the cause he espouses. But no oratory, no band wagon cam­ paigning, ha* s'lrred the people this year. They will probably go to the polls next Tuesday and vote just about tbe same as though not a speech bad been made nor a dollar expended on There are several explanations that might be offered with some plausibility. In the first place this it an “off year" campaign orator* much more to day than they have ever done before. In tbe third place there are no exciting When the voter goes to the polls next Tuesday and look* over hi* ticket be will have to make his cbolcu for governor between two very estimable gentlemen, Fred M. Warner of Farm­ inton who already enjoy* the distinc­ tion of being governor, and Charles H. Klmmerle of Cassopolis, who wants lo take Mr. Warner's place. They are both nice men, but they stand for dif­ ferent things In thl* campaign. Mr. Warner stand* for the machine, (or "letting wall enough alone," that Is to say, for leaving the machine alone, for the easy going, complacent policy of letting the management of punllc affairs run slung from year to year without loo much effort to keep down expenses or restrain the greediness of special interests, or the selfish design* of office seekers aod grafter*. Not that Mr. Warner may not want to give tho people good, govermont, but that from the very nature of tho environment In which ho Is placed and of the influ­ sow* that control a party grown strong aod reckless through loog lease of pow­ er, he cannot well help the growth of graft and tho heaping up of govern- Klmmerle has been trying to force the question of reform In the administra­ tion of state affair* to the front, and so. But the people of Michigan are to used to mtcblne government, they have so loog been witnesse* to the lavish expenditure ot public funds that they have apparently reconciled them­ selves to the situation aud refuse to concern themselvea with any reform­ log campaign. Thus, it will be sur­ prising if they do not go lo tbe pulls sod blindly vote tho republican ticket for no other reason than because they bare got into the habit of so voting. There Is out other reason why the campaign haa been so tame.

This decision means that a very Im­ portant Iron Industry employing about 75 hands and with a bright future be­ fore It will be brought to this city early in 1007. It also means that there will bo an acute demand for bouses and that the responsibility rests upon our city of meeting it.

Mix, a wealthy citizen of Nashville, whose trial has been taking place In the circuit court this week In which he has been charged with burn­ ing a dwelling house and barn was found guilty by tho Jury after five hours of deliberation. The verdict was re­ turned at half past ten o'clock last night. Tho case will probably be ap. pealed. The Mix case has been one of more than ordinary Interest especially In Nashville where be is well known. On lhe night nt the 23rd of last May a barn and house on his farm three unles and a half north and a mile west of Nashville were burned. To the Harry & Eaton insurance company Mix pre­ sented a claim for 81275. Frank And­ rus of Bellevue, president of tho company allowed him 81008, giving him an order for that amount payable In 00 days. After Mix was arrested the company stopped payment of the order. Mix two weeks ago began suit against the company for the insurance money. The company bad nothing to do with bls prosecution whatever. Soon after the buildings on Mix's farm burned rumors began to spread in Nashville that be had set fire to them. Officers began to Investigate, and on June 7 ho was arrested, arraigned be­ fore Justice Bishop and bound over io lhe circuit court lor trial He gave a bonu of 84,000. In the trial Prosecuting Attorney Pryor and Thomas Sullivan appeared for tho people and Colgrove and I‘otter •nd Kladen of Nashville, for the de­ fense to prove an alibi. The prosecu­ tion succeeded in building up an Inex­ tricable net of circqmstanelal evidence. Mix did not taxe the stand. Tbe star witnesses for the prosecution were Floyd Downing and John Heckathorn. Downing testified that Mix bad begun in March negotiations with him toburn tho buildings for 825, which he refused io do. Mix bought tbe farm from Mr. Heckathorn In January for 81650. lie paid hlin 830 for farmiog tools which Mr. Ueckathoro-dld not think of suf­ ficient value to move. It developed in the evidence that for half of these ar­ ticles Mix was allowed 887 by tho In­ surance company. After tho building* were burned Mix sold tho farm to Homer Ehret for 81200 For the de­ fense Horace WorJen testified that after tho rumors were started Mix of­ fered him 125 to swear that he bad seen Burt Parmeter going toward tbe buildlogs on the night of thefire. This was substantiated by his employer, Roy Knowles. The principal witness for thedefeose was Dr R. P. Comfort, who was too HI U> appear Io court and whose deposition was taken In Nashville Tuesday after­ noon. it was proved by a slip that he had attended Mix before the tire occur­ red. Another witness, R. Suuodor*, said ho had seen Mix on the same night and that he was groaning with illness Arthur Lawrence, who Is deaf took the stand so<.' testified that ho saw Mix go to the well for a pitcher of water. Ho luted that Mix was In good health tbo night of the fire. All day yesterday wa* taken up with pleas by Attorneys Pryor. Potter. Colgrore and Sullivan.

"Yon have a very pretty town over there." "Yes, I'm very proud of our city,” “Why?" "Ob, It’s a pretty town, well located and so many pretty bou.o-, beautiful lawns, decorations and parkings, and our people, rich and poor, take so much pride In keeping their places beautiful and attractive.” "Are tho street* keeping pace with all this?” "Well, no, the streets belong to the city, yet some of them have been well gravelled according io the most Improved meth­ ods. but ou account of our fine shade trees almost overlapping the streets end the wet weather tho gravel don’t last, so that 81400 worth of gravel on four or tire blocks soon becomes muddy and we get tired of such an ex­ pense and run the cyclone scraper over the streets and scrape off the mud and gravel and haul It away, and thus get down to hard pan, aod when that breaks up, away we go with the wheelctl scraper again, pileup tbe mud and haul It away, then when the streets get too low or below grade, wo Sil It up with some gravel." "Why on’t you pave the main traveled streets and gravel those not so con­ stantly in use, wouldn't it be economy in the long run?" "Well, it's too ex­ pensive, taxes are so high now. If my neighbor wants his streets paved let him pave 'em. I want my money for myself. ‘Charity begins at home.' " "Now, stranger, let me talk awhile. Are you really charitable? Are you public spirited? Does your argument prove you a real good citizen? Have you the health, wealth and beauty of your city at heart? "The city of Hast­ ing. belongs to her people; Hastings Is their home, sod the people of tho city at large constitute, figuratively speak­ ing, one large family, whose duty it Is to look after the welfare, beauty and sanitary condition of all her streets. It's a public duty you owo to your neighbor and tbe city In which you live. Improve your streets as you have your homes, then you can truly say, beautiful Hasting*, clean streets, good water, good drainage, good light­ ing and all that goes to make tho city Inviting, so that many good people will be pleased to come and live with us on account of these benefits >o all." In a rainy, wet season like the last four weeks have been, ride over our ■buddy streets and feel that something within you that almost makes yotuexplode with anger and uurse tho-slow mosiback town, that you call your own, and want to tell others that it is beaut­ iful, when these very streets are the laughing stock of strangers and would drive bomesockers elsewhere to live. Go to Marshall. Battle Creek, Owoato, Lansing, or even to our little neighbor down the road, and see their beauti­ fully paved, clean, inviting streets, then oorne home with a blusn on your cheek and vote for paving like men, like citizens with a little pride. Ixsl us grasp this golden opportunity to lift Hutlngs out of tho mud and make her one of the rival cities of Michigan, the pride of our hearts and a credit to our peoule.
