MICHIGAN AND IT'S RES OUR
CES

Most residents OF Michigan knew
they lived in great State and some of
them could have given reasons for
their faith. Yet until less than three
years ago no real effort had been
IN ade To furnish official information
for general circulation. During the
period OF more than thirty years the
great trunk lines of railroads, with the
cooperation of all the Atlantic steam
ships lines thoroughly advertised the
Western pra ircs beng interested main
y in securing the longest possible haul
for each passenger of every class.
The States and Territories of the
West and Northwest spent money lib
orally in advertising their advantages,
both by the distribution OF every
variety of painted matter giving all the
statistics" that could be- compiled,
and by the use of paid correspondents
to the jaurnals of the East.
On the Continent, as well as i'm
Gr.at Britain, the far West was better
known than the older States nearer
| the seaboard. 1t seems strange
that thousands of intelligent, moral
and thrifty people desiring homes
should be allowed to pass our State
without an earnest effort being made

William Tell ran hay ranch near Berge.
en about FIVE hundred and eighty years ago
Tell had lived in the mountains all his life,
and shot deer and chipmonks with cross
gun until he was a bad man to stir up At
that time Switzerland was run principally
by lot Of carpet baggers from Austria, and
Tell got down on them about the year 1907.
1t seems that Tell wanted the government
contract to furnish hay at $40 ton for the
year 1905, and Gessler, who was controlling
the patronage of Switzerland, let the contract
to an Austrian who had lot of condemned
hay further up the gulch.
One day Gessler put his plug hat on tele-
graph pole and Issued order 236 regular
series, to the effect that every snoozer pass
ing down the toll road should bow to it.
Gessler happened to be in behind the brush
when Bill said, 'Shoot the hat,n and didn't
salute it; so he told his men to gather Mr..
Tell i'll and put him in the refrigerator.
Gessler told him that il he would shoot a
crab-apple from the head of his only son at
POO yards, with cross-gun, he would give
him his liberty. Tell consented, and knocked
the apple higher than Gilderoy's kite Old
Gessler. however, noticed another arrow
sticking in Williams girdle, and asked him
what kind of a fowery break that was.
Tell told him that if he had killed the Kill
instead of bursting the apple he intended 10
drill a hole thro ugh the stomach of NJ

"LOOking for q Bank"

Yesterday afternoon an officer pa
trolling Griswold street observed q
stranger closely scanning the various
buildings, as if measuring their dimen-
sions with his eye, and finally inquired
If he was looking for any particular
number.
'Im alooking for bank" was the
reply.
"Well, there's half dozen on the
street.
"Yes, I see, but aim quite satisfied.
I've turned over new leaf, and am

After His Hat.
ALBANY Argus.)


'One day of last week." said an Albany
shoe dealer, when was alone in my store,
a well-dressed stranger entered. He wore
white .dicer' las the boys call it,, which he
laid carefully upon counter near the door.
Then he asked me for pair Of my very best
custom-made lace shoes A pair was soon
placed at his disposal. Seating himself, he
tried on the right shoe. This is splendid
fit he said, but my feet are each of a diff
ferent size. Let me see if the left one sets as
we'll The left shoe was pulled on his foot
and he stood up and gazed proudly down at
his extremities. Those are about right, > he
said, but suppose you give me pair little
smaller. There is no need Of man making
his feet look larger than necessary" l
mounted the steps after another pair, when
l heard noise in front of the store and
looked up just in time to see a small boy
making way with the strangers hat. Look,
your haiti shouted; after him quick The
stranger seemed paralyzed for a moment,
but then galloped out Of the store in
pursuit.
That's all" said the shoe dealer, finally.
''The new shoes went out with the man. and
! have seen neither since When he tried
on the shoes he stamped his feet very
naturally, and suppose that was signal
for his confederate"

This made Gessler mad again, and he took
Tell on picnic up the river in irons Tell
jumped off whel, he got goodthance, and
cut across a bend in the river, and whom
the picnic party came down he shot Gessler
deader than mackerel. This opened the
ball for freedom, and weakened the Austrian
government SO much that in the following
November they elected Tell to fill the long
term, and half breed for the short term.
After that Tell was recognized by the
ruling power, and he could get most any
contract he wanted to. He got the service
on the stage line up into the Alps increased
to a daily, and had the contracts in the

loved by the Swiss people because he had
freed their land Whenever he felt lonesome
he would take his cross gun and 60 out and
kill tyrant on toast almost every day till
Switzerland was free, and the peasants
blessed him as their deliverer. When Tell
got to be an old man he would go out into
