Durand Citizens.

DURAND, Mich, May l5.-On Saturday
evening an Ann Arbor train stood for long
time across the Main street crossing and sun
dry citizens who were awaiting the move
ment of the train in order to get home, grew
impatient. A sort of riot ensued. w. q.
Perry, il is charged, took lantern from one
of the yard men and signalled the engineer
to go ahead, first uncoupling one of the cars,
in order to make an opening in the solid
train. Otto Olmstead is charged with dis
placing a switch on the Ann Arbor during
this time, contrary to the orders of the yard
master. Both of the men were arrested
Sunday morning by Sheriff Jacobs and taken
to Corunna. They were brought here for
trial this forenoon. Other parties were i'm
plicated, but they left Durand before the
sheriff could serve warrant on them.
The men were held for trial at the eXaml-
nation Monday. The attorney of the road
informed us that proceedings against the
men would be commenced in the U. S.
court. He also thinks that without doubt
conviction will follow. The penalty may be
five years in prison.

there been known winter and spring more
deleterioas to the health of the public than

of all forms of nervous troubles and wasting

highly intensified and rendered very difficult
to cure and only those physicians having

1t was most happy plan of the ladies OF

fully decorated with profusion of flowers

G. A. Osborn, who was secretary of the
building committee 16 years ago, had been
chosen to act as master of ceremonies. and
after calling the gathering to order, in few
words stated the purpose of the meeting. A
choir consisting of some of those who sang
at dedication sang the same anthem used
then, and later hymn, ''IVatchman tell us
of the night" Prayer was offered by Rev.
Mr.. Brewer after which Pastor Little made
brief, telling address. Letters of greet
ing were read from Rev. Joel Lyon, the
first pastor of the church, also from Rev. T..
S. Leonard now i'm New York state. The
history of the Baptist organization from the
beginning in 1856 was read by Miss Adah
Curliss. 1t was concise and admirable.
Rev. w. l.. Farnum now of Flint, for eight
years pastor of the church here, told how
the edifce was built. 1t was summed up
he said, in this:-The people had mind to
work. The self-denying labors of the men
and women were faithfully pictured, and
earnest was the plea for continued fidelity.
Mr.. Gibson favored the audience with harp
solo, and then Mr.. Farnum on behalf of the
ladies of the church, and in most appro-
pirate speech presented Mr.. Little with a
gold watch and Mrs. Little with silver wat
er set. The presentation was complete sur
prise to the recipients. After few feeling
words of response, and a selection by ladies
chorus, adjournment was made to the chap
ell, where tables were spread end delicacies
served to all in turn. The room had been
decorated with choice pictures and flowers.
Too much credit cannot be given the ladies
OF the church for this thoroughly, enjoyable
appropriate occasion. Among others pres
ent during the evening were Rev. and Mrs
Roosevelt and Rev. and Mrs. Bancroft.

Is THIS REVOLUTIONARY

1t is hard matter for Bill Hig-
gins to realize that the reign
of the H's is at an end. When
the adiutant general, on the evening
of the ever memorable 10th of Jan
uary ordered Frank Holz, of Garden
City, to take charge of one of the
doors of the house of representatives,
Bill thought he was a bigger man
than the adjutsnt general. He drew
a revolver on Mr.. Holz, and disputed
his authority to take charge of the
door. He mistook his man, however,
on this occasion. Mr.. Holz took
charge of the door. He had seen
such implements as Bill exhibited be-
fore, and knew how they were made.
He knew also that Bill was sneak
ing coward, and was not half as
dangerous as he really thought he
was.
The Capital with it's customary
regard for truth and reliability re-
ports that Frank Holz drew the re-
volver. Frank had no revolver and
did not need any. The only revolver
