Work has been at a stand-still for several
| days ON the water works. The work of
pipe laying done by Contractor Myers is I'M
satisfactory and the committee want him to
put the pipe already laid in proper condition
before any more is laid. Water was pumped
| into the mains by the pumps at the Estey
factory and great many leaks were found.
Hoyt's Bunch of Keys possesses the COM
| bination to the hearts of those who desire
an evenings entertainment of the frivolous
kind, without plot, motive or much of any
thing else, except combination of ludicrous
effects, songs, dances and nonsense strung
together, without any particular design eX-
cept to amuse, and in that regard the author
is wholly successful. Much of the humor
of A Bunch of Keys is far-fetched, and de-
ponds upon the cleverness of the people in
the cast. Miss Louise Raymond plays the
part of Teddy Keys in a clever, boyendish
manner, and dances very cleverly. Miss
rest of the ''bunch," dress in good taste,
sing well, and contribute much to the sue
cess of the play. Miss Inez Sheppard as
''Dolly Dobbs," does not have much to say,
Ward as matilda Jenkins" looking for her
lost one, is very clever in her representa-
ton of the character, and was warmly APP
pauded. OF course Frank +. DUNN, as
'Jonas Crimes" the brakeman, is very
clever and amusing in his antics and facial
grimaces. The other characters are we'll
sustained.-Daily Alta CAL, April 10.
The Lansing Journal in referring to the
state league ball club at that place says of
the two players from this county: Evils
well likes Lansing and will be in left garden
again next summer if-and it is a rather
large if-he does not slip into faster
league. He has an ambition to make a
pitcher of himself and this together with
the fact that he is the idol of the Lansing
bleaching boards and grand stand may keep
him in the State league another year. Wis.
uses his head in ball-playing, as also does
Yerkes, the star twirler of the team, and
neither can well be spared if Lansing is to
stay in. Manager Mumby's path has not
been lined exclusively with tea-roses and
oxeyed volets. He has carried the Lam
sings through the season with a smaller
salary list than that of any other team in
the league, and has great head for the
| finances, but he has run against frequent
snags in dealing with some of the high
strung star players, and he will gladly
| lay down the managerial burden. 1t is not
| likely that he will care to pick it up again"
| The State Republican has the following
to say of well known former resident of
Owosso: "A prominent Lansing lady, well
known to all, leaves next spring, for a year
abroad in Europe, and therein lies charm
| ing little romance which is sure to interest
the lady's many warm admirers. Three
years ago Mrs. Genevieve Thorne came to
Lansing, and charmed all with her sweet
voice and engaging manners. She was
promptly captured by the wide-awake musi-
cal committee of the Congregational church
and has since delighted the members of that
organization every Sunday, as a member of
the choir. Her talents were in great demand
and she became the chief attraction of many
local opera. Her fame was not confined
to Lansing alone, and it recently reached
the ears of the musical committee of DR..
Williams church, Toledo, Ohio. She re-
ceived a call in August, and left for newer
and wider field. A philanthropic lady of
