1t may be said in this connection that
the celebrity which Michigan has Of late
acquired as the nursury of trotting horses
is in great part due TO the efforts Of Mr..
Byerly, now sick and confined to his bed.
1t is doubtful whether any other 8 year
cid horse Of modern times after five con-
secutive mile heats, has been able to trot
the last quarter Of the fifth heat at ths
wonderful speed ascribsd to jerome w.
Turner. 1t Is almost incredible, and we
could scarcely believe il if il wsro not for
the evidence afforded by respectable and
honorable records. We think that we

Mr., Byerly may be restored to health.

Geo. w. Hanes, of Fairfield,
while hunting rabbits on Wednes-
day last about noon on the county
line between Shiawassee and Sagi-
nav, was quite seriously injured by
the accidental discharge of his gun.
While taking his gun off his shoulder,
both barrels being cooked, one bar
rel from some cause or other went
off and knocked the gun on to the
ground, when the other barrel ex.
ploded and he received the full
charge of shot in his right arm a lit
tie below the shoulder. Being so
near, his clothes caught fire which
was extinguished only after consid-
cradle difficulty. He walked home
and Immediately sent for the Drs.
Patton and DR.. Drake, of Oakley,
who removed the shot and dressed
the wound Mr.. Hanes is doing as
well as could be expected, consider.
ing the seriousness of the wound.

HON. WILLIAM PARSONS.

This distinguished English gentle
man will appear before the Owosso
Lecture Association Feb. I'D. He
has been before the American public
some years and is in great demand
by Lecture Bureaus. The circular
of the Redpath L.yceum Bureau
speaks as follows Of Mr.. Parsons:
"Unheraldcd by his agent, and un-
known to his audience, Mr.. Parsons
delivered, some years ago, his first
lecture in Boston. He took rank at
once with the greatest orators of the
American Lyceum. His record since
then has been the history of tie most
brilliant success ever achieved in this
country by any transatlantic literary
orator." His popularity in Boston
may be seen from the fact that he
has already lectured in that city 80
times. In his lecture in this city his
subject will be "Heroes of the Ho-
meric Age" in which he will tell US
something about the Golden Age" of
Greece and the excavations made in
the ruins of ancient Troy by that
famous scholar, DR.. Schlienan. Mrs.
Livermore says Mr.. Pasons has been
an eye witness to some of these exca
vations and treasures, and his account
of the same is really fascinating.

VERNON.

The first annual meeting of the
Shiawassee county sheep breeders
and wool growers association was
held at Vernon on Wednesday of
this week. The attendance was good
and the association seemed to be in
very prosperous condition. The
Secretary reported a membership of
forty, and large number of new
members we're added.
The meeting was called to orde-
by the President, Mr.. +. G.. Bailey,
who made a short opening address.
He spoke of the necessi y of weed
ing out the poor stock and keeping
none but the best in these depressed
times; of the advancement made In
sheep breeding in the past IS years
the average yield of wool per head
having been increased from three TO
six pounds, and cited a case where a
flock had averaged over fourteen
pounds; and in this time great i'm
proyement had been made in the
sheep. The advantages of Michigan
as sheep State were presented in an
interesting manner-he said the losses
were only three per cent in this State,
while in some otF.er States they we're
from twenty to twenty three per cent;
that one sheep was kept to every four
acres, the highest average of any
State in the Union. He urged the
breeders to buy nothing but the best
stock to breed from, and TO give their
hocks the best of care, and as a re.
suit the balance would be on the
right side of the ledger.
A committee consisting Of J. w.
Hubbard, l.. w. Barnes and Mr.. Gill
more was appointed to revise the con-
stitution and by laws. Also a COM
mittee consisting Of the Secretary
and Messrs. p. Cline, ID. Murin and
L. c. Wilkinson to prepare q pro.
gramme and make arrangements for
the next annual meeting.
The following officers we're elected
for the ensuing year:
Pres, F G. Bailey, Venice.
Vice Pres, E. S. Burnett, Burns.
Sec, Ed. 0. Dewey, Owosso.
Treas, l.. Loucks, Vernon.

Brown, ]. Van Alstene, the President
and Secretary.
The sheep shearing festival will be
held at Vernon, or in that vicinity,
on Wednesday, April a2d.
ID. p. Dewey, of Grand Blanc,
made several short speeches and gave
the members some good ideas. This
part of the meeting was enjoyed by
all present.
At the evening meeting papers
were read by Geo. w. Stewart and d.
p. Dewey, Of Grand Blanc, and ]. w.
Hubbard, Amos Parmenter and +. G..

print. The evening session. was a
very pleasant and profitable one.
