WANTS HIS INSURANCE.
Ferdinand Lafevre, of Carrollton
Desir es to Recover for Loss of
Home.

Ferdinand Lafeyre, of Carrollton, by
his attorneys, Snow & Snow, has COM
menced suit by declaration against the
Peninsular Fire Insurance company,
limited, of Jackson. Last October, &C
cording to the declaration, the plaintiff
made a verbal agreement by which he
was to take $3.50 insurance on his house,
household goods and barn, situated on
lot 4, block 3, Carrollton. The policy
was delivered and the premium, $6.3S,
was paid. In November the house and
contents burned, the total loss being
1912. When Mr.. Lafevre produced his
policy IL was discovered that it read lot
5, block 4, which was erroneous. 1t is
claimed in the bill that the company
knew the location of the property and
that its agent visited it before the policy
was issued. 1t is also claimed that the
plaintiff can neither read nor write
English and was entirely dependent on
the representations of the agent. The
full amount of the policy, $3.50, is sued
for.-Saginaw Weekly News, Aug. u.

Henry A. Rose, the sixth ward candi-
date for register of deeds on the Re-
publican ticket is gentleman who has
in both the city and county large
number of warm personal friends,
many of whom are very hopeful that
his candidacy will win him a nomina-
ton at the hands of the forthcoming
county convention.
Mr.. Rose was born of sturdy German
parentage in Sanilac county, but for
more than 20 years has been identified
with the interests of Port Huron, where
he has always proven himself both
competent in business and also entitled
to the confidence which he has won i'm
all his business relations. He was edu-
Gated in the public schools of Port HUI
ron.
Beginning as a driver of an express
wagon for George Fish, and afterwards
for j. +. Avery, he steadily won better
positions until he became clerk in the
store of j. j. Fish, and in 1899 started
out for himself in the grocery business
at the stand on White street, which he
still occupies, and to which he has since
added prosperous meat business, and
during the past two seasons large
wholesale fruit business.
Mr.. Rose has never been an aspirant
for office, though it is notorious fact
that he has for the past ten years been
active in every direction in political
work, often sacrificing his business in
order to accomplish some point for
Republican success.
Mr.. Rose has made a vigorous can
vass of the county, and expresses full
confidence in his nomination at the
convention, and the fact that he is the
only candidate for nomination on the
ticket representing the German pop
ulation of the county, together with
his record of service for the party,
would seem to be reasonable assurances
| that he will win.
1t is also worth to note, as an assur-
ance for the electors of the county,
that the Office of the register of deeds
will be found in competent hands if
Mr.. Rose shall win in his candidacy.

A BLESSING.
How Baptist Divine views the Recent
Tornado at st.
IOuia.

OAKLAND, CAL, June Rev. Philip
Graft took the recent cyclone at st. Louis
as the subject for his sermon tonight at
the Twentieth-stree Baptist Church. In
brief he said:
''The ST. Louis cyclone, in its wild, re-
sistless rush and long train OF ruin and
tears-is it a blind, heartless caprice OF
chance work or a part of divine order and
goodnessP Such is the question that trem-
bles on the white lip of fear and unfaith,
but If God reigns every calamity Is Kind
Providence, every stroke OF hard times a
step of progress and every bit OF misery
starting point for glory.
ITO the seer or the philosopher the hurt
ing storm is as benefcent an agency as the
soft sunshine, for the sweet law OF the uni
verse is higher development and gracious
redemption. The st. Louis horror was
mild catastrophe compared with the
ceaseless scythe of death that is moving
down the millions from age to age, or the
busy sword of war in its fiery course over
ten thousand battlefelds.
behind the universal fact of death
must beat heart of eternal goodness. A
sudden taking off is less to be dreaded
than an unworthy life. In the highest
sense death is not spectre of grinning
skull and cross-bone, but a bright angel
messenger; not a dropping into great
horror of darkness, but glad, soft falling
into the everlasting arms of light and
peace.
"The moral significance of suffering is
not punishment so much as culture. To the
martyr in the ghastly flame, to the believer
in the bubDling groan of the euroclydon
wave, to the pallid invalid on the racking
couch, hoping in God, the divine smile
changes the terror of drowning, the red
consum ptiYe cough the torture of fire, into
d thing of triumph. and turns the suffering
into emotions of peace and even rapture.
A means 10 high end in the beyond, a
teacher of wisdom, and developer of a
better manhood, whether here or yonder-
this seems to be part OF the vast and in
scrutable scheme of Providence in mans
process of evolution"

MANTALEN KICKS.
He Objects to Having George de Cola
Represent the County Repub-
Iican Committee.

OAKLAND, CAL, June 7.-Charles Man
talen, chairman of the Republican County
Committee, has issued call for special
meeting next Saturday to consider the
proposed terms of compromise between
the two Congressional committees. This
move is regarded in various lights and
may lead to q greater breach than exists
at present.
"The trouble is easily explained" said a
member of the County Committee to-day.
''George de Cola has been looked upon as
the representative of the old committee
and has been trying to arrange some ami
cable terms with W. r. Davis, who repre-
sents the Friend committee. De Cola has
caused it to be understood that whatever
he does will be ratified by the County Com
mittee. In this respect De Cola has ex-
ceeded his power, and his assumption of
representing the County Committee is
frowned upon by Chairman Mantalen,
Walsh, Church, Haines and Armstrong.
They object strongly to having De
Cola act for them and they want to know
at once what is gong on so that they can
take part in the deliberations. This is
something new, to have a split in that
wing of the County Committee, and it may
lead to serious results. The much-desired
harmony in the Republican ranks has not

what more fitting salutation can l give you

perfect: be of good comfort" A strange COM
bination of commands. The one condemns
us; the other quiets US. Can we harmonlze
them in our lives? They are joined together in
our text, and what God hath Joined together
let not man put asunder. ANY unlnsplred
man would have put comfort before perIec ctlon,
but Paul puts perfection first, and Paul is
right Both are destroyed if the order be re-
versed. Comfort is all that q good many
Christians care for.
We had to recast our notions OF religion.
The one word that rings through the Bible is
righteousness. ChriSt's shame and sorrow ought
to shame us forever out of all thought OF
comfortable religion. The only thing that can
warrant such sorrow as Christs is our perfec-
tion. Put that word first and find it an ideal,
and ii you aim at ANYTHING less you are work
ing at crosS-purposes with Christ.
But what is perfection? Sinlesness? That is
negative and does not bring out the force of
the mighty word. Completeness. No mortal
may dare assert this of himself. There was
but one perfect man and he more than man,
infinitely more. Perfection OF the Pauline
sort means whole-hearted conservation. If you
look for perfection OF the sinless sort In your
life you will find very little comfort; but If you
look for Pauline perfection, whole-hearted
conservation. you have right to "be OF good
comfort" 1t is quite possible, then, to har-
monte Paurs combination of commands in
our lives. "Be perfect; be of good comfort"
This is text to take with us wherever we go.

other will do as well.
To us it means, California and San Francisco,
"Be perfect" Give yourself in whole-hearted
conservation to God wherever you are, and
thus shall you be of good comfort II you go
away do not leave your religion behind you.
Take it with you, faithful soul, be faithful al
