and all that on 'em ?"
You are right"
Suppose that man, Mr. Terry, over
there, building that fine dwelling-a man.
sion-should build his bay windows right
out to the edge of the sidewalk from the
second fl lor, and put posts under them, or
without supports, do you think the people
on n street would stand it ?"
Course not. Oh, you're right. If the
city wants to condemn the post awnings
give in."
FOURTH CONVERSATION,
Between a real estate owner and stranger
visiting from Minneapolis.
You see you do not have such need for
awnings as we do"
Perhaps not, but in summer it is very
warm with US, and | do not think your sys-
tenn would be tolerated there
But, see how deiightfulit is to be able to
SIT out in the cool of the evening above the
street."
True, sir, but l have noticed since
came into your city week ago yesterday
(Tuesday), that nineteen-twentieths of your
people sitting out on awnings-porches. we
call them-do not sit out to the front edge,
nor half way out Now, why would not
balcony ways do as well for them?"
We'll, they might"
"Might? know they would do better "
"Why?"
Because they couldn't make timber
lands of them, as we call catch all attics
out West. They would not have houses on
them, nor wood-sheds, nor cord wood, nor
do the family wash on them, as saw them
doing in your ciiy yesterday"
"Oh, we'll we are used to all that"
"Ah, see; but, if you will excuse me, it
| is not at all complimentary to the good
| taste or the sense of your people. 1t does
| not help them il the estimation of others.
| speak from knowledge. | hear people
| express themselves who are silent before
you for good breeding's sake. In fact. l

"Oh, no. That's all right"
Permit me. You've got handsome

| There appears TO be no crowdiDg; your
vegetation is charming in tree and flower

sions are restful, inviting lovely. But your

| gest that even with their present low
storied fronts, if the awnings were ahan-

| good-at least, sir, you would not fee
shame for it or apologize for it, for there
| are here and there some handsome fronts
| II man could only see them in perspect-

Stockton Defeats San Francisco.

STOCKTON, July 25th Errors by the San
Franciscos gave the Stocktons an easy VIC
tory to day, the home team winning by a
score of 10to5 TheSan Franciscos fielded
poorly, Ebright leading with three errors,
and Farrell, Hanley and Stevens following
with two each. Farrell and Hanley made
costly overthrows to first.
Ebright's three errors came in the ninth
inning, but previous to that he played
magnificent ball. making some grand run
ming pick-ups and lightning throws.
Lookabaugh pitched his best with men
on bases, and with decent support would
have won. Twice the Stocktons had the
bases filled, with no man out. Once they
failed to score, and would failed have the
second time but for rank blunders. Score

DEATH OF ABlJf PIERCE.

AS we were going to Press last
Wednesday, word reached Us that Mr..
Pierce died at his home i'll Minneapolis
that morning at one O'Clock of paralysis.
His death was expected every day since
he received his last stroke Of paralysis.
The masons of this city were notified of
his death and that the funeral service
would take place here Thursday after
noon. Mr.. Pierce was a charter
mamber of this lodge and for years one
of its most faithful workers. A more
earnest worker the lodge has never
known. He retained an honored
position ever since he moved to that
city, and his dying request was, that the
members of this lodge might lay his
remains in their last resting place under
the usual Masonic restrictions.
"Abiiah Pierce was born IN Worcester,
Massachusetts, on the Esfdsy of July,
1906. Had he lived two Gays more, he
would have seen eighty-four years of
life. When eighteen years Of age, he
removed from his birthplace to the
town of York, in the state of New
York, where he became acquainted
with and married his companion Of
about sixty years, who still survives
him. In 1916, Mr.. Pierce settled on
farm in Wheatland, Kenosha Co., Wis,
and had the honor of bringing into this
state the first threshing machine with
separator attachments ever used within
its boundaries.
Mr.. Pierce came to Grand Rapids,
together with his family, in the year
1858, and, in partnership with Mr.. L. D.
Hall, built saw mill on the banks of
Hemlock creek the same year.
Soon after his arrival, Mr.. Pierce
built a residence in Grand Rapids,
where he lived in peace. with all man
kind until his removal to Minneapolis
three years ago last April. He was the
father of four children all of whom
survive him, namely, Col. F. E. Pierce,
Of Columbus Barracks, Ohio, Mrs. J. NJ
Pomeroy, of Minneapolis, Mrs. Alex.
Lindsay, of McGregor, Iowa, and Mrs.
A. j. Bugby, of Dawson, N. D."
The funeral service took place
Thursday afternoon under the auspices
of the Masonic order The usual ritual
service was performed at the grave and
the mortal remains of dear departed
brot her were laid awav with Masonic
honOrs.

MCNONA LAKE ASSEMBLY.

The Quarterly, containing the elev-
enth annual program of this assembly
is received. A glance at the array OF
talent announced enables us to assure
our readers that it is fully up to the
high standard attained last year.
Prof. William G. Sumner, the distin-
guished political economist, will give
six lectures: The Industrial Organiza-
ton, Banks, Money, &C., being some OF
his subjects. Joseph Cook, the pro-
found philosopher and thinker, speaks
twice. George w. Cable, the popular
novelist, will give two readings from
his works. DR.. Gunsaulus, who created
so much enthusiasm last year speaks
again. Ignatius Donnely, known all
over the English speaking world, by
his authorship of "The Great Cryptic
gram" will give his celebrated Shakes
peare-Bacon lectures.
The program contains many names
new to the Assembly field, yet we'll
known in the pulpit. There seems also
to have been greater efforts than
usual to keep the educational
and musical features well up.
Mrs. Geneva Johnstone Bishop, the
celebrated soprano soloist, of Chicago,
is the leading artist
Taken as whole it is a splendid pro-
gram. If we criticised it at all, we
should say it gave to much. Send to
