Strawberry Farm.

The season recently closed finds
J.. E. VanHoten still the "Strawberry
King" of Central Michigan. His
fine farm, we'll kept lawn and beauti,
full home and outbuildings cannot but
draw the admiration of all passers-by
and during the fruit season the scene
of about seventy-five pickers busy at
work lends additional interest to the
view. The entire place is kept scru.
pulously clean, the vines neatly trim
med, weeds kept down, and in fact
everything is in frst-class shape.
During the berry season Lewis &
Son, our well known commission
merchants, handled for Mr.. VanHoten
about $1,000 quarts of the famous
Triumph De Grande berries, nearly
one-half of which were sold in this
city-the balance being sent to differ,
ent points In this State. Our mer-
chants have learned that they can al
ways depend on Van for prompt
delivery in good condition of his
fruit, and the demand for it is IN
creasing each year.

Communicated.

At the recent election Of County
Examiner, f. l.. Griffith, of Laings'
burg, was chosen over V. G.. Lanning,
of Bancroft, and J. G. Monroe, OF
Perry.
The defeat Of Mr. Monroe was
undoubtedly caused by the circula-
tion Of report that, if elected, he
was to be the means Of giving the
Secretaryship of the Board to Mr..
Brandt, when by the rule of rotation
in office the selection would be that
of Mr.. Cooper. This report was a
groundless falsehood. It's author evil
IDENTITY knew that, If true, it would be
lever of great power, and, lie though
it was, gave it wide circulation
throughout the county. 1t accom-
plished its purpose in the defeat OF
Mr.. Monroe, yet this same report and
the result of the election have caused
him to stand higher in all respects in
the estimation of the people Of the
county than he stood before the elec
tion. ONE WHO KNOWS.

Peoples Star Course.

The Peoples Popular Star Course
was concluded last Friday evening
by Miss Kate Field, in her lecture on
"Mormonism."
The audience was not as large as
the reputation of the artist and the
importance of her subject merited;
but it was an audience composed of
our best people, who listened atten-
tentively and appreciatively to the
speakers graphic description of the
terrible evils of mormorism, her re-
view of tie futile efforts of the past
to abate it, and to her own original
and keenly logical statement of the
necessities OF the case.
Her arraignment of the people of
Utah, tersely and most forcefully re.
veals an astounding condition of af-
fairs, which it we're well for all loyal
American citizens to ponder thought
fully.
"What is the condition of Utah
today?" asked the speaker. cone
hundred and thirty thousand souls
who believe in polygamous theocracy
arrayed against $1,000 souls who be-
lieve in republic; 1870, 600 souls who
believe in John Taylor as the head of
their government, $1,000 souls who
believe that the President of the
United States is the head of the gov.
ernment; 1870, 900 souls who believe
that the laws of this country are to
be broken whenever they conflict
with John Taylor's commands; IS, 900
souls who believe that defiance Of
the law is rebellion against the best
government on earth; f3o, 600 souls
who believe that the United States
are 10 be destroyed to avenge the
death of Joseph and Hiram Smith,
and that on the ruins will be founded
the Kingdom of the Saints; $1,000
souls who look upon this Nation as
the hope of the world and see in it
perpetuated the gradual emancipa-
tion and enlightenment of all human
ity; 1870, 900 souls that accept polyga-
my as the revelation from a just God;
5000 souls who see in this practice
a desecration of home, the prosti-
tuition of body and soul and the be-,
getting of children under the malign
influences of jealousy, hatred and
unsatisfed longings."
The speaker argued with great
clearness and force that treason against
the government was the great crime
of Utah, and pointed out the danger
threatening the country.
Lack of space forbids an extended
review of this great lecture. We
only remark that Miss Field is doing
the Nation great service in educat-
ing the people upon this subject of
Mormonism.

Curious Directions Contained in the
Wills Of Various People.


An old woman who died lately in a
village in Western Pennsylvania was SO
attached to her home aud it's belongings
that she bequeathed it to her daughter
SO long as not an article of furniture was
removed from the place it had occupied
during her life. Any change in the
house or furniture would forfeit the
legacy. Not year had elapsed after
her death when by an explosion the house
aud all in it were shattered to fragments.
In no way do the ruling passions of
smen show themselves so strongly as by
their wills. A curious collection re-
Gently made OF these last testaments ex-
hibits the EXTREMIST forms of vanity,
benevolence, malignancy aud humor.
John Reed, a gas lighter in Philadel-
phia theater for nearly fifty years, be.
queathed his skull to the property-room,
to be used only as "poor Yorick's' in the
graveyard scene in Hamlet.
Harriet Martineau left her skull and
brain to q surgeon, for the purpose of
scientific investigation. Cartouche gave
his skull to Geneyese monastery: and
Jeremy Bentham bis body to friend.
who articulated the skeleton and dressed
it in Bentham's own cloths.
A wealthy English nobleman, dying
about century ago, left FIVE guineas for
the purchase of picture Of viper
stinging the hand Of his benefactor, to be
given to an ungrateful friend 10 lieu Of
the large legacy left him by former
will, now revoked.
Every kind Of whim and freak have
been expressed by Wills. Seur Benoit
desired that he might be buried in an old
leather trunk which had gone around the
world with him three times.
A wealthy Kentucky iron master, who
died few years ago, ordered that his
body should be kept unburied by his
family, and as coon as it was put under
ground they should forfeit their inheri.
tauce.
A shrewd merchant in Bremen left
large legacies to six friends with the con.
sition that none of them should follow
him to the grave or show any sign of
respect or grief, on pain of forfeiture.
Five obeyed the conditions, the sixth
rode as chief mourner and threw flowers
upon his coffin. A codicil was discov-
cred by which the loyal friend who
should disregard the will should receive
treble the amount given to the others.
There is something pathetic in in even
malignant attempts to make . mans
whims live after he is dust. 1t is the
last puerle effort OF weak human nature
to defy DEATH Youths Companion.
