Rev. Z. B. Bancroft was well cared for
by the conference, being assigned to the
First nj. f. church at Adrian, succeeding
DR.. j. M. Kerridge, who takes the First M.
K. church in this city. A brief acquaint-
ance with DR.. Kerridge gives us a very ia
vorable impression, and we feel sure the
church here will continue the good work of
the past under his direction. He had been
at Adrian for five years.
A woman by the name of ofau1 Sterling
was caught shoplifting in the store of the
Owosso Dry Goods Co. on Tuesday and
promptly arrested. She plead guilty and
was fined $40 which she paid. A search of
her rooms brought to light goods stolen
from Black & Son, Cheapside and several
other firms, but as yet no complaint has
been made against her. There Is but one
way to to get rid of this class of thieves and
that is to arrest them every time they are
detected stealing and in short time an end
would be put to the practice.

perfect as are desired. A construction gang
