WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN MICHIGAN
From a communication published in
the Detroit Free Press it appears that
the right of women TO suffrage in mu-
nicipal matters was recognized rs long
ago as 1902, when the legislature of the
northwest territory in January of that
year passed an act to incorporate the
town of Detroit, by which act all SIN
habitants of said town of Detroit who
are freeholders, or householders paying
an annual rent of forty dollars" were
voters. This act was in force for many
years, On the Goth day of April, 1904,
on the question whether 1.-THE pickets
and gates be repaired or suffered to fall
into decay" twenty-five freeholders
voted, aud among them four women,
two of whom voted by proxy. They
were widow Callahan, widow Coats,
widow ProveDcal, and ''the late Mrs.
Welsh, who voted by VIM. Scott,

ust or September. An average yield in
goJd summers is three hundred pounds
to tue acre; the New Orleans variety
has been found to yield eight hundred
pounds to the acre; but it is found I'M
marketable, and is, therefore, little
cultivated. Cotton-seed has become
an important source of profit. In
1858, the ardeb of two hundred and
seventy pounds sold for twenty-five
tariff piastres: now il sells for from
slxty-hve to seventy-five piastres.
Formerly 1T was not of sufficient value
to Justify its being sent to Alexandria,
and it was used as fuel; now it is all
shipped to Europe, and from it is
pressed an excellent oil, and from the
refuse cake is made which is said to
be more nutritious than linseed cake.
The cattle murrain, which commenced
In Egypt before it proved so complete
a scourge IN England, destroyed, the
first year, eight hundred thousand
head of horned cattle. In Lower
Egypt, scarcely an animal was left un-
destroyed, and it will take years to re-
store the number of animals.
NEW WAY OF PRESERVING MILK.-
has proved that milk kept
from the air is preserved for long time
perfectly good. Profting by this ex-
perience, says the London Mechanics
Mr.. Mabrun warns milk to
d moderate temperature in tin vessel,
with tube of lead, TO expel
the air then the tube is compressed,
and the Orifice is closed with solder.
When the milk is used at the end of
several months it will be found desira-
bic TO stir up with it the cream which |
IS formed on the upper part of the
liquid. Mr.. Mabrun, having laid this
process before the Academy of Sciences
iOr their examination, the committee |
report that milk thus preserved after |
Xix months still possesses all the prop |
erties of fresh milk. A prize of fifteen |
hundred francs has been awarded to nj. |

SEVERE Loss.-Ed. Johnston is a
descendent of Ham, according to
Democratic commentators, but is rep
resented By those who know him as
an honest, industrious negro. who lost
a leg in his country service. Ed.
saws wood and does such other work
as his maimed condition permits, and
being frugal and steady had aecumu-
lated sufficient money to purchase a
lot. On Tuesday the last payment on
his lot was due, amounting to $52.
Ed. took the money from lis hiding
place and putting it into his pocket
started to make the payment, but to
his great modification and disgust he
discovered upon arriving at his place
of destination that the money had
slipped through a hole in his pocket
and was gone. Ed. was greatly dis
tressed by the loss. 1t was a whole
fortune to him, and the loss %endangcr-
co the safety of his property, but his
creditor is a kind-hearted gentleman
and will no doubt wait for a time, till
the loss can be made up again.

ACoLLIsIoN.-Last night as a family
carriage containing two ladies and a
child, together with the driver, was
turning the corner at the intersection
of Main and First Streets, a buggy
driven in the opposite direction at a
rapid gait collided with the carriage,
locking wheels, and abruptly check
ing the motion of both. The horses
attached to the carriage became
frightened and attempted to. run, and
being suddenly checked, the off-horse
lost his footing and fell down. The
ladies and child were rescued without
harm. and no special damage re-
suited. unless the horse was injured.
We do not know that any one was to
blame but fast driving is not always
safe in the streets of a populous and
live city. t
