Mckernan Appointed.

News was received here last Satur-
day that orr old townsman, J. @. Nc
Kerran, had received the appointment
of postmaster at L'Anse vice David
Denomme, whose term of Office has ex-
pred. The appointment will give
general satisfaction to the busin ess
public. Although the editor OF the
SENTINEL is Republican he recognizes
the fact that the political wheel was
given turn last fall which brought the
Democrats on top, and as the Office is
sure TO be filed by Democrat MIR.
McKernan is as acceptable as any we
know of. He has been identified with
the growth and business interests of
the village the past twenty years, and
in that time has held many positions of
trust all the way from justice OF the
peace up to member of the legislature.
During President Cleveland's last term
he held the Office of postmaster, in
which position he gave general satisfac-
tior. His petition, we understand, was
signed by nearly every business man Of
the place and at least three-fourths Of
the other patrons of the Office. 1t is
not likely the office will change hands
before Oct LIST.
Since the above was put in type we
understand that o protest has been sent
in against Mr.. McKernan's appoint
ment by friends of the defeated
asprants for the position. The
grounds of the protest Is stated to be
that Mr.. McKernan is not a Democrat.
This will be piece of news that will
cause rather robust smile to come
over the countenance OF local Rupubli-
cars, and if they can succeed in read
ing a few more such out of the Demo
cratic party they will be supremely hap.
by. But it is rather rough on Mr.. Nc
Herman who has been fighting for the
Democratic in cause every national and
state campaign the past forty years.
But IL is Democratic row and il they
can stand it to read the old wheel-hor-
SEES out of the party the Republicans
won't kick.

School Middle at Spur

Messrs. James McKercher, James
Wilson and John Anderson, composing
the de tacto school board OF School
district No. l., Spur township. were
cited to appear before VIM. X. Havi.
land, circuit court commissioner, last
Saturday, OF complaint of George No.
Donald, supervisor of the township.
This proceeding is brought to compel
the first named gentlemen to deliver
up all records and property of the dis.
trict to the complainant as chairman of
the township school board, which sue.
ceeds to all property and rights of the
several districts by virtue of the pro-
ceedings under the Wagner law con-
solidating the several districts into one.
The order asked for was issued by
Commissioner Haviland, he claiming
he had no authority to enquire into the
legality of the proceedings by which the
consolidation was made.
The case as stated by Mr.. McKercher
is substantially as follows. Some time
prior to the last annual township
meeting a petition to establish the
township district system was circulated
in and around Three Lakes, and signed
principally by transient voters and
others having no interest in school mat
tiers. The permanent residents in
and around Spur and Beaufort were
entirely ignored. Not person in that
part OF the township signed the petit.
ton or knew of its existence.
To complete the reorganization it
was necessary to hold joint meeting
OF the township board and the board OF
school inspectors. 1t is claimed by
Mr.. McKercher that such meeting
was never held. That the notice to
the inspector at the Spur was not re.
cieved by him until the evening fol-
lowing the time appointed, thence it
was impossible for him to attend; there
fore he claims the proceedings were il
legal and void, and the old district Off
GERS propose to keep right on in bust.
ness as though nothing had happened.
The members of the district board
complain that they have been unfairly
treated in this proceeding, and APP
parently not without reason.
The standard of the Spur school
has been kept very high through the
efforts of the district officers. and the
graduates turned out of that school
would compare favorably with those OF
any school in the state. They have al
ways paid their principal good salary
and thereby secured the best service.
The control of their school has been
taken from them without their
knowledge or consent and placed in the
hands of those who have no interest
therein. Hence the kick. Whether
there will be any further legal proceed
ing remains to be seen.

Babies Suffer From Thirst.

Well babies and sick babies, young babies
and babies Of high and low degree, babies
fed on the bottle and babies fed naturally,
may have water to drink in moderation If
they want 1t. The water should be boiled
and covered not very cold, even warm If
the child prefers 1t so. This is the opinion
of a successful medicine man under whose
treatment have come hundreds of babies.

rived from giving water to sick babies that
I now order it in nearly every case with

HE ARRESTED THE MUTES.
How Chicago Policeman Was Fooled by Q
Couple Of Gamins.

From the Chicago Herald
1t happened about midnight. and at the
corner of Clark and Madison. Policeman
Steve Rowan was standing near. He is
handsome, agile fellow, a little proud of
his buttons and his Irish birth. and he
wants no man to swear in his presence.
Two deaf mutes had come UP from the
fair ground and stopped for a moment at
the corner before parting for the night as
one of them was to sleep at the Sherman
and the other at the Brevoort. While they
stood there. chatting about the events of
the night, using the sign language uni
versaily adopted by their fellows, two
street boys came along and saw them.
The boys a moment later saw Steve Rowan
and wanted to call his attention to the
mutes; for the picture presented was very
comicai to them. But Steve had stopped,
and didn't seem in hurry to get down to
the corner
Finally the boys concluded 1t would be a
good time to play a trick on the policeman.
Each of them remembered he had some
thing against the police force anyway, and
stepped into the alcove made by Atwood s
front door. and began swearing at the po-
liceman in perfectly blood-curdling man
ner. They had both taken lessons in the
gentle art of blasphemy, and each tried to
show he had proflted by the study. And
they tried, too, to spice their wordy assault
You think you're some with your brass
blank stiff"
Officer Rowan looked down toward the
corner and saw the two mutes standing
there. He couldn't see the twinkling of
their fingers, which would have proved to
him 1t was not they who had insulted him.
No one else was in sight, and he felt so
sure 1t was they that he let them go for
a time. But he watched them. Presently
the blast came again, and In terms more
tnSOlent than ever before.
I'm run youse in." he shouted.
OF course the two mutes could not hear
word that either Rowan or the boys
def1ed fate. When the abuse grew intoler-
able Rowan made up his mind he would
stop it. So he came down on the two sur
prised visitors, laid violent hands on them
and dragged them across the street to the
patrol box. Two bad little boys followed
him, much interested in the turn affairs
had taken. The mutes tried to explain
that they had done nothing, but Steve
would hear nothing Of it-absoiuteiy moth
ing He took them to the station and re-
ported them for using profane language In
public. They repeated their silent protes-
tations of innocence.
the street" said Steve "Youse can't do
nothing but make signs now"
But they finally persuaded the sergeant
that Steve was in error, as papers pro-
duced showed them to be strangers and
here simply in attendance on the congress
for deaf mutes. And so they were given
their liberty. But two little boys sat down
on the steps and laughed till the morning
papers were out.
