Daughter of the Regiment"

Youths Companion.
1t is not an uncommon thing in the
European armies for a regiment OF
troops to take some poor abandoned
child and bring it up as son OF
daughter of the regiment. "Daugh-
tiers of the regiment" are oftenest
found, perhaps, because it Is more
poetic and interesting for battalion
of rough troops to adopt and cherish q
little girl than. it is to take mere
boy. who may presently be rough and
soldier like the rest.
Many romances have been woven
around these daughters of the regi-
ment, but better than romance Is the
most recent way of bringing up such
a laughter, which is illustrated in
the case of 8 brave Russian regiment
and it's young ward.
In the winter of 1878, when q regi-
ment of grenadiers of the Russian
army, called the Kexholm Regiment,
was passing through Bulgaria durin g
the Turkish war, the men found q
little girl in village which had been
abandoned by its inhabitants.
The soldiers took her with them.
SIG was oiihaiy auoptcu as Tie
daughter Of the Kexholm Regiment
and given the name of Kexholmsky
In the long years of peace which
followed, Mary had no lack of wo.
mans tender care in the quarters OF
the regiment. The wives of the
officers and others We'd in caring fol
her. But she was early sent to
school, as the daughter of any other
well-to- do citizen might be, at the
Alexander and Mary institute a.
Warsaw, where the regiment was
stationed. The cost of her education
was paid by the regiment as a whole
Mary was q bright scholar, and lasI
June finished her studies at the In
stitute. Wishing to make some sigr
of her gratitude to her big foster
parent, and having certainly no
sufficient money of her own with
which to make present to each o.
the grenadiers, she did what any
other sensible girl would have done
she worked out gift with her thread
and needle and sent it with hel
thanks.
The gift was big cushion of sill
velvet, upon which Mary had EN-
broidered the number of the regiment
and a representation of some of the
marks of obstruction which had beer
awarded to it in token of brave ser
vice.
Below these was this inscription
worked in silk, giving the date Of the
girls adoption by the regiment and
of her graduation from the school:
Mary Kexholmsky, student of tn,
Institute A. NJ. A. W."
january II, 1878; June Z, $780,"
The officers celebrated the recep
ton of the cushion with a festival, tC
which all Mary's schoolmates were
invited. Her education completed
the daughter of the regiment will be
found some useful occupation, or 9
good husband, by her big, indulgen'
parent.

A Mysterious Blood Stain.

On the road from Social Circle to
Monroe, says the Walton ga News,
stands noted landmark house
that was once the travellers resting
place, and where the stage always
drove up for change of horses. The
form which it Is built was gotten out
with something now no longer to be
seen-the whip saw On the floor OF
one of the chambers is a dark stain
that time has failed to erase. 1t tells
of how, in the lonely watches of the
night, one of the inmates was myster-
iously murdered. 1t was never known
who struck the blow, or what was
the motive of the crime.

Now For Michigan Sugar.

Now For Michigan Sugar.
Prof. Kedzie of the agricultural col
lege has just returned from Grand Is
land, Neb., whittier he went in the in
terest of the experimental bureau to in
vestigate tie manufacture of beet sugar.
He brought sample of the granulated
sugar made from beets which is equal
in appearance and quality to the finer
grades of granulated sugars, and which
was on sale in the groceries there at 13
pounds for 81.
The professor says that very large
plant is being operated there. The
yield per acre is about Is tons of bee s
and these yield 240 pounds per ton.
There is no reason, if they can be raised
in Michigan for about $50 per acre at a
profit, why this state should not only
manufacture its own sugar, but be o
great source of supply for the rest OF
the state. Prof. Kedzie is qnite en-
thusiastic, and the project will be fully
tested next year So far as the growth of
the vegetable is concerned.

vexed Question Settled.

! Vexed question Settled,
A decision handed down in the. su.
preme court at Lansing yesterday
morning finally settles the question OF
what are taxable costs upon the sale OF
delinquent tax lands. The opinion was
delivered in the case OF the Auditor
General VS.. Sarah Mclaughlin, and
aiiirms the judgement Of the court be-
low.
Defendant owned 81 parcels of land
in the county Of Wayne and neglected
to pay the taxes for 1887. They were
returned. On Dec. 25 Of that year he
rendered to the county treasurer the full
amount with interest charges except 81
on each parcel which the treasurer de-
manded for expenses Of advertising and
sale. The amount was refused. Seven
weeks later the auditor-general filed the
petition for the sale of delinquent tax
lands in Wayne county, making the de-
fendant party alleging the lands
were delinquent The lands were so
returned previous 10 July /, 1888.
Decree was entered for defendant below
and complainant appealed.
The demand of the auditor general
was based upon Sec. SO, act, 1875, laws
of 1889, contendihg the 81 should be
added after July in each year and
thus becomes charge upon the land.
The court holds that the language Of
the section will not admit of this CON
struction, that the preparation OF the
petition is not an expense of sale. 1t
is prepared by salaried officers and
clerks in the employ of the state and no
additional expense is isnecessarilyincurred
in preparation. Besides" says the
court, "the legislature, if they had in
tended to include such charge, could
readily have found apt words in which
TO convey such intention. No costs or
expenses in chancery proceedings are
incurred until after the rendition of
the decree. All the expenses before
thnt are termed costs of the suit and are
taxed as such" The court presumes
the Legislature used this language in the
act with reference to its definite and
well understood meaning. In the alb
senco of express language we cannot
hold that the legislature intended to i'm
poe so unjust and unnecessary a bur-
den Upon taxpaying citizens" Nothing
in excess OF l per cent a month and
per cent as collection fee can be added
to any taxes voluntarily paid either to
the township, county, or state treasurer
except the expenses after it accrues
under section 50 of the legislative act.
The court adGs: "The expenses of az
vertis ement and sale cannot accrue until
after decree"

An Important Decision.

The secretary of the interior has
affirn ed the decision in the case of Angus
Smith ct al. ve. Portage Lake & Lake
Superior Ship Canal Co., on appeal by
Smith and others, rejecting their appli-
cation, presented at the local land
Office in January, 1887, to locate Port
erfield scrip upon certain tract of land
which had been selected by the canal
company under the grant of March 3.
1865. Smith based his right of entry
upon the claim that the canal campany &
selections had not been in accordance
with the termsof the granting acts, the
land in question not being nearest the
improvement.

Daniel Boyle, railroad 4aborer, wai
instantly killed by gravel train neil
st. Ignace last week. A coronor's jury
rendered the following peculiar verdict
"That said Daniel Boyle came to his
death by the railway car Jumping the
track, he being struck by the car, hair
and blood licking to the car near where
lie was found, ten or twelve feet from
the track and we further believe if the
car had kept the track the accident
would not have happened"
The charred remains of an unknown
woodsman were brought from Gogebic
Thursday afternoon. They were found
in q burned camp near the track by the
section men, where it is supposed re-
fuge had been sought for the night, the
camp becoming fired in some manner
and resting its lonely occupant on that
shore whence none return in mortal
robes. An inquest was held by coroner

While the watchman was doing duty
in another direction Monday night some
body broke hole through the brick
vault of Peters & Morriscns, and got
away with oil the money-about $500, o

obtained is in the finding of pair of

Some years ago Mrs. Mary Cummings,
of Hancock, came into possession OF
eighty acres of land in the suburbs Of
what is now Superior City. She after
wards died leaving as her only heirs her
daughter Miss Ida Cummings and Mrs.
James Ryan, of Detroit, who were never
informed of their right to the land.
Last Tuesday q sleek looking fellow from
Duluth called upon Miss Cummings and
tried to induce her to sign d
deed for $4,000, representing that the
property was not much account, that he
bought it in for taxes etc. He would
probably have succeeded but for the
interference of Judge Dooling, who
took some pains to look the matter
up and found the property to be worth
about $4,000.
DR.. w. G. Gates, of Rockland, was
called to Trout Creek, o station on the

Tuesday, to examine patient and
found bad state of affairs, there be-
ing no less than five cases of maglinant
diphtheria and no quarantine measures
had been taken. A short time ago
patient died there with the disease and
the remains were sent to lower
Michigan town, the physician having
the case in charge stating that the
death was caused from tonsilitis. The
place where some of the patients ere
confined is an eating house and as
every person had free access to the
premises it is not known how far the
disease has spread. 1t certainly shows
gross negligence and demands the at
tention of the proper. authorities at
once, which it will have.-Ontonagon

BIJOU OPERA HOUSE.

Hettie Bernard Chase comes to the
Bijou for a week. beginning tonight.
She will be seen in Little Coquette."
witch is musical comedy, but with
more of plot than is usually found in
plays of this kind, and its many anus
ing situations and scenes are incidental
to the working out of the story of the
life of Little Coquette, whose father.
Confederate soldier, was killed at the
siege of Vicksburg, leaving his daugh-
ter, then baby, to the charity of stran
gers. The title role of the play, Little
Coquette," affords Miss Chase ample IA
ciity for the display of her versatility as
a star, and also to introduce several
songs and dances, together with banjo
solos, the latter of which are not the
least attractive features of the enter
tainment, as Miss Chase is said to be
most expert banjoist. There are also a
number of strongly drawn character
sketches in ''Little Coquette," among
others a Texas cattle king, typical old
New Hampshire farmer and a German.
and Miss Chase is said to meet with
most capable support from her COM
pany. Both star and play are new to
this city. but they have been before the
public for the past three seasons, and
have scored a success, and there would
seem to be no reason why they should
not meet with favor at the Bijou, where
musical comedy always seems to have
ready welcome.
