Attorney GeneralMaynardgave out very
important opinion Tuesday relative to
Jurors fees, that will affect every county in
the state, but more particularly those of
larger population. For all time 1t has been
customary for county clerks to issue war
rants to jurors for the full time of the term,
whether they were in attendance every day
or not. In Kent county, for instance, re-
cent term of the circuit court lasted three
months, and thirty-six jurors demanded pay
for the full time although nearly all of them
put In over half their time at home County
Clerk Eddy refused to issue the warrants,
and the attorney general sustains him. He
holds that jurors cannot draw pay for time
when not actually in attendance on court.
The state has been MIXED of thousands of
dollars In this way.

The Farmers and Free Wool.

Kalamazoo Telegraph.
The new democratic tariff which removed
the duty of IL cents per pound on clothing
wool and placed it on the free list, practic-
ally TOOK away IL cents per pound from the
wool produced by the farmers of the country
resulting in loss to them of about $50, OOO-
600 per annum. Already its baneful effects
on sheep raising In this country, especially
in such States as Michigan, are being felt in
a reduction of flocks.
There were AZ, 1894, 064 sheep in the United
States on January 1, 1895, against 45.04S,-
600 on January 1, 1894, loss of 1880, 900
sheep. AS the average weight of fleece
was $50 pounds the shortage this year is
roughly 20, 600, 900 pounds, at least. The
reduction will he still larger the present
year.
Michigan's flocks dropped from 2,s9S, 900
to 100000 Ohio's from 8, 766, 900 to $751;
600; Pennsylvanas from 1,474, 900 to l, TO-
600; California's from 3,91s, 900 to 8, 526, 900
and there have been general losses except
in the high plateaux about the rockies
Idaho, Colorado. Utah, Wyoming, Mon
tana. etc. where the fOcks on January list.
showed slight gain.
Against this loss we have, in the single
month of April, 1895, gain in the imports
of foreign wool of 5000, 900 lbs. as CON-
pared with April 1894. The gain in cloth
ing wool imported for this one month is
10000, 600 pounds.
The attempt to divert the attention Of
Michigan farmers from the protection issue
and turn 1t to free silver to benefit the own
ers of mines, is one of the most astounding
political confidence games ever attempted.
Let not the farmers Of Michigan be turned
away from calling to account the politicians
who removed the II cents per pound duty
on wool and thus placed them in direct COM
petition with South America, by the absurd
idea that what they want is not restoration
of protection, but legislation to depreciate
our dollar.

The evening of June 9th was the twenty
second annual commencement exercises of
the Corunna High School. That there is
high public interest in the high school is
evident from the attendance at the exercises
at the M. K. Church. Every seat was filed
with COrunna's many friends of education,
to witness the graduating exercises of the
class of '95, and a great many remained
standing. The decorations were by the
junior class, and were very neat and appro-
pirate. Spanning the arch were the class
colors blue and pink, over them in a semi
circular form was the class motto, "Take
no step backward" i'm plain white letters.
A star made of evergreens and suspended
from the center of the star were the char
acters '95 in figures of white. The rostrum
looked handsome in its dress of ferns, plants
and flowers. In front was the place for the
reception of favors, flowers, books for the
graduates. A very pretty design was on the
organ; stands with plants and flowers
adorned each end of the rostrum. The
graduates, teachers, members of the School
Board headed by Supt. Sheldon, marched to
music; the graduates and high school teach
ers taking their places on the rostrum. The
program opened with music by the orchestra
from Owosso, followed by an earnest prayer
for the future welfare Of the class by Rev.
w. M. Ward. Howard Edgar Slocum, a
graduate of the English Course, delivered
the Salutatory. The Misses Goodell sang a

PRICE WANTS TO LIVE.
His Counsel will Attempt to Get
a New Trial-Hc Rcpudiatcs
His Confessions

Marshall Price, the convicted MUIR
derer of Sallie Dean, the Denton
school girl, has decided to make en-
other attempt for hi, life. To Il at
end he has repudiated his confessions
and declares that his first story deny
ing guilt of the crime was true.
His lawyers-Millard +. Taylor, J.
Henry Bohn and Robert +. Leach,
Jr.-called on him at the Jail Mon
day and had a talk over their further
efforts to stay the executioner's hand.
The attorneys will apply to the Court
of Appeals for new trial upon ex-
ceptions taken to the rulings of Judges
Stump and Wickes in the first trial.
If they fail in this they will appeal
to the United States Supreme Court,
pleading the unconsti.utionality of the
process by which Price was placed on
trial. The lawyers claim that the
motion to have the case tried Lefpre
the court instead ola jury should h; We
been made personally by the accused
and not by his attorneys, as was The
case.
Price is hopeful that his legal
advisers will succeed in securing a
new trial for him, and expects in that
case to fare much better. His father
will be in the city in day or two TO
talk the matter over with the lawyers.

BATHING SUITS.
Feminine FancieS i'm this Line.
How to Make Them.

Sea bathing sounds very alluring
and conjures up all sorts of pleasant
visions Of the real delights of summer
when the first warm weather comes,
and the subject of bathing suits prompt
ly presents itself for consideration.
These gowns require less cloth, decora-
ton and attention as to fit than any
other costume on the list, 50 they are
suggestive simply of comfort and use.
Yet with all the restrictions rs to cut
and material and the limited needs to
be supplied, the variety of bathing
suits produced for inspection is certain
ly humble tribute to human ingenu-
ity. The most popular materials this
season are serge in various bright and
subdued colors, checked and spotted
flanEels, which were never prettier
that they are now, mohair in white,
black and colors, and cravanette,
kind of waterproof serge, very fine in
weave. The prevailing style of make
is Il blouze Waste, balloon sleeves, short
skirt to the knee, and full trousers,
banded in at the knee, made of the
same material ms the skirt. An es-
pecially pretty suit is OF brown serge
trimmed with pale blue braid and
made with square yoke and rounded
rundown collar White and black
alpaca suits are made IN this style.
with white braid on the black and black
braid on the white. So far as the
distinctive details of fashion for dress
gowns can be utilized in these simple
suits, it is done with great effect. Wide
revers shaped collars are a noteworthy
addition to the simple blouse waists,
while others have bodice in some
color in decided contrast with the
skirt, like red with white, and are
made with lace trimmed yokes. The
wide collars are very pretty, faced
with a bright color Pale green era
vanette makes an extremely pretty
suit, faced and trimmed with white.
Pale blue is used for another, which
is trimmed with white open-work en-
broidery. The blouse is ornamented
with godet basque and collar, both
decorated with embroidery, and the
balloon sleeves are draped and caught
up with bow. White cloth. striped
with bands OF bluei cloth, is another
fancy, and this has sleeves of plain
blue. Some of the trousers show quite
little below the skirt. and others are
barely visible, and four yards of ma
tcrial fifty inches wide will make the
full suit.
