ed the invitation of China. At Toxic he
will meet the two Chinese plenipotentia-
ries, Chen Fen Huan and Shao, and to-
gether they will perfect Il treaty with the
japanese Government.
Gen. Foster is IS years old. A journal
list by profession, he left his desk in 1913
to accept the United States mission to
Mexico and served there until 1880, when
he was sent as Minister to Russia and
subsequently became Minister TO Spain.
In 1890 he was selected by President Har-
rison TO represent the United States Gov
eminent in various reciprocity treaties,
and when Blaine resigned the Secretary
ship in 1892 he was made his successor.
Gen. Foster has represented China in
diplomatic dealings with the American
Government and has the full confidence
of the oriental Government He has
made n study of Asiatic politics and has
great faith in China's future. Il think"
he says, that this war will prove bless

Chinese are capable of doing wonderful
things. With the general introduction of
railroads and telegraph lines China will
become Ear greater power than now.
She is, even ut the present time, n wonder

An Early Visitor to Japan.

The adoption of European customs
by the Japanese is not so recent rs gen.
orally believed, but dates back about
four hundred years. In 1897 Holland
equipped heet to explore the extreme
orient. The chief pilot of this fleet was
an Englishman named Adams, and OF
the five vessels which set out the one
which he directed alone reached Japan.
The ship was attacked by the Japan
Csc and the crew made prisoners, but,
in 1000 the mikado, recognizing in Adj
ams n man of superior intelligence,
gave him freedom and a patent OF no
bility, and admitted him to his court
Adams rapidly rose in wealth anG
rank. He taught the Japanese how tC
build vessels upon European models
and showed himself so Indispensable
that he was never allowed to return TO
Ills own country. Though he had wife
and family in England, he married q
Japanese lady, and when he died di'
rected that his fortune be divided be.

A Mean Woman.

The announcement that Mrs Polly Dix
on, who died in Pulaski Monday, was the
oldest woman in Jackson County, with
the exception of Mrs. Torrens, caused
County Superintendent Hawley to enter
a demurrer. He states that Mrs. Mo-
zettee, an inmate of the county house, is
not only the oldest, but one of the mean
est women in the State. She is 106 years
of age and glories in the assertion that
she is las mean woman as God ever
put breath into" Some time ago, a Mrs.
Reynolds, aged SO, was also taken TO the
county house. The latter also has a repu-
tation for crankiness, and the superin-
tendent conceived the idea Of putting the
two in the same ward. For weeks they
fought with tongues and hands ut every
opportunity, says the superintendent,
but finally Mrs. Mozettee pleaded to be
removed, promising TO be the best inmate
of the house if separated from Mrs. Reyn-
olds. They were separated, and now
the old lady is as docile as a kitten. She
still claims that her intention to hold the
record for mcanness is good, but that Mrs.
Reynolds outdoes her in vitality.

Mrs. Hochstadt Found.

The sudden disappearance of Mrs.
Hochstadt from her home at Owosso has
been solved. Mrs. Hocbstadt, when seen
by a reporter, stated that her husband
forcibly drove her from the house at
night. She wandered about for some time,
and when found by friends was in a sorry
plight She was nearly frozen and
starved. having hardly enough to protect
her from the bitter cold. Her shoes con-
sisted OF an old, cast-off pair of her hus-
band. She asked for shelter and help,
that she might get To her home ut Ypsil-
anti. Her brother came on from Ypsil-
anti aud took her home.

One Happy Democrat.

Charles CHASER, the West Bay City
city comptroller, must vacate his office
and make room for the Democratic candi-
date, james A. Scott, who is declared to
have been elected by one vote. Scott is
perhaps the happiest man in town. He
will ask the common council to pay him
the salary that is due him for twenty-one
months idleness when he should have
been filling the place occupied by Chaser.
His claim for back salary is 81, 100. On
the other hand, CHASER may be asked to
fork over that amount to the city, and
will in all probability refuse to do so, on
the ground that he has given his services
to West Bay City and could not be ex-
pected to work for nothing, after having
been declared elected by the board of can
vasSprs

living in one Of DIR. Smiths houses and
is alleged to have been slow in paying

Had Their Nerve with Them.

The other day three men entered the
store Of Cutler q Lauster, at Ionia, and
one of them asked to look at some shoes.
After looking the stock through he failed
to find anything to suit him, but asked to
have bill changed Mr. Cutler, who was
alone in the store, stepped to the safe
and got the necessary change and handed
it to him. Another of the party expressed
n desire to look at some boots, and while
he did so the two wandered aimlessly
around the store. On going to the safe
later Mr.. Cutler found it had been robbed
of about $500, about half cash and the
remainder in checks.

To the average American Gen. John w.
Foster, who was Blaine's successor as
Secretary of State under President Harri
son, has appeared to be statesman of no
more than mediocre ability. AS matter
of fact, however, he is one of the finest
diplomats America has had in recent
years, and his selection by China as one
of her representatives in the conference
for the establishment of peace between
the two great Eastern empires is demon
stration that his work is appreciated by

Food Commissioner G. T.. Storrs, in his
annual report, complains of insufficient
funds. In ten years he has been able to
nav for the analysis of but SO samples, of
which IS proved to be adulterated, and
there was nothing left with which to
push prosecutions. Michigan is a dumping
ground for impure food from all parts of
the country. Mr.. Storrs thinks he has nc
complished something in discouraging
the importation of such food. He asks
an appropriation Of $4,000 for the next
two years.

Deputy Sheriff T. Il. Hatch, of Bay

take charge of John Albert Zeigler, an
insane man. Ziegler did not propose to
come with the officer and attacked him
with an AK. The deputy finally got him to

cut his heart out After a time the mani
nc was disarmed and brought into the
city. He is now at the county Jail. He
will be taken to the asylum at Pontiac,
as he is considered dangerously insane.
