In the trial of Blarnek and his wife for
the murder of the latters' father, at Ke-
waunee, the jury found Mrs. Blarnek
guilty of murder but acquitted her hus-
band. This is good e1emplifcation of
the old adage, that murder will out. F"
At the time Of the murder there were no
suspicious, and probably the matter
would never have been inquired into was
1t not for libel suit brought by Mrs.
Blarnek. Sufficient testimony was given
to Justify the arrest of the parties. Mrs.
G@ttinger. the mother of Mrs. Blarnek
and wife of the murdered man, was also
implicated. But she escaped trial and
conviction by committing suicide short
while ago.

issuing from tug. The wind was blow
ing strong, and soon the fire had made
SUCH Roadway that it was beyond the
control of the local fire department. The
mayor of Milwaukee was telegraphed to
for assistance and three steamers were
sent to the afflicted city. On Saturday
wild rumors were afoat as to the loss
occasioned by the fire, it being put as
high as $10,00O,OOO. These estimates
were made while the fire was still raging
and when it appeared as if the entire city
was doomed. Later estimates place the
loss at half a million dollars, with An in.
surance of perhaps one half that amount.
The large manufacturing establishments
of the place were uninjured.

THERE has been considerable said in
the Milwaukee papers about the "dam-
age done the Buckeye in launching
from the shipyard of Hanson & Scove in
this city. The vessel sustained no dam
age in being launched; the trouble was
that the rebuild was not permitted to be
complete enough. The work was done
by day labor under the supervision of
Captain jerks, part owner of the Buck.
eye. The boat was spread nearly three
feet and Mr.. Scove told the captain at
two different times during the winter
that something should be done to
strengthen the bottom of the barge, but
the latter insisted that she was sufficiently
strong there. Everything called for by
the man in charge was done, and if there
was anything needed the fault lies with
the owners and not with the persons en-
ployed.

Rush.

I thought that some of the readers of
THE TIMES would like to know how we
are getting along.
Our corn prospect is not very fattering
at present. The late spring and wet
weather have given us a fearful back set
in the corn line and the consequence is
that there will be very light crop. In
Rush, wheat sarpasses all expectation in
looks, and hope it will be so threshing
time. Oats do not look so well, they
were badly injured by the wet weather.
Potatoes are injured also by the wet
weather. A neighbor of mine planted ten
bushels andi had not hill left. Another
planted twenty bushels, and all rotted.
Grass is very light. 1t will take about
$4,000 to weigh ton.
BY the way, can any of the readers of

The School Meeting.

Persuant to law, the annual meeting,
of the Union School District, of Owosso,
was held at the Common Council chamber
on Monday evening. The attendance was
fair, and the meeting very harmonious
In his address, the President of the Board
of Education, Gilbert r. Lyon, Esq,
stated that the literary standard of the
High School had been largely raised dur
ing the past year, extending the course for
another year which prevented gradu-
ating class this year; that the school was
in highly fiourishing condition, being
reputed to be the best between Pontiac
and Grand Rapids. That there were now
in the district 1000 children for whom
provisions must be made and that the
present seating capacity of the several
school buildings was entirely inadequate,
and that provisions should be made at
this meeting for additional buildings. He
stated that the bonded debt of the district
had been reduced to $4,000, of which
$4,000 would fall due in 1886, and the
balance in 1885. That $50, 900 was raised
by tax this year for school purposes, but
$4,000 would be sufficient for the coming
year unless new buildings were ordered
built. That after very critical examina-
tion of our school and courses of study by
Prof. D'Ooge of the University, the
University Senate, had unanimously voted
to permit graduates from the literary
course in our High School to enter the
University without examination, showing
the high position the school occupied in
the opinion of the leading educators Of
the state.
The address was received with enthusi
astic applause. At its close the secretary
Of the Board. 4. r.. Hutchins, read his
annual report Of the receipts and expen
ditures during the year as follows:
THE ANNUAL REPORT.
The annual report and statement Of the secretar,
Of the School board Of the receipts and expenditure
for the year commencing July nth, 1881, and end
ing July 10th, 1884, Approved and adopted as tn
report Of the School Board.
