Prospect That He May Have Street Rail-
way Strike on His Hands.
DETROIT, Jan. ga meeting Of the
Street Railway Employees association, to
which every street railway employee in the
city has been invited, began early this
morning in Light Infantry armory. The
difficulty which led to this meeting Is the
discharge of James Grant, formerly one Of
the assistant superintendent of tho Citi-
zens' Street Railway company, from the
company's employ. Grant alleges that
Tom l.. Johnson, president of the COM
pany, discharged him because he had been
selected as an arbitrator in one of the dis
putes between the company and its en-
ployes.
President johnson refused to re-employ
Grant, who is now acting as assistant Sec
rotary of the employees union. About sou
men were present at the meeting. After a
short discussion vote was taken which
resulted, with but few dissenting votes, in
declaring Grant u regular member of the
union. Another vote was taken demand
ing that Grant be reinstated in the Citi-
zens' companY's employ. If President
johnson refuses arbitration will be TO.
sorted to under the agreement in force.
If johnson declines to arbitrate the
matter will go TO the executive board of
the national association. Secretary Smith,
of the union, said that any prospect Of
calling the men out over this matter is as
yet exceedingly remote.

FARMINGToN. Mich, Jan. 23.-Mike
Daugherty must stop blowing his go-to.
bed horn, even IL the majesty Of the law
is invoked. Mike is State Senator War
ner's partner in big hardware store,
and when tho Business Mems union de-
cided to close at 0 o'clock at night they
employed Mike to blow q horn which
would be the signal for immediate closing.
The sundry rights which Mike thereby
thought himself entitled to have proved
annoying. for 10 overdid the business.
The horn which he had made for the
blowing is about ten feet long and when
he sets his lungs at work back of that
horn the sound can be heard to the last
house in the village. Every sleeping babe
within the half-mile radius Is awakened
by Mikes terrific blast and that's what
causes the difficulty. A committee Of
citizens waited on Mike and requested
him to quit blowing the horn or they'd
thrash him. Mike has record as q
husky man, and when the promised
thrashing did not intimidate him the
irate townspeople formed league and
have hired lawyer to get out an injunc-
ton restraining Mike from using his
horn.
Mike says he is backed up by the Bust
ness Mems union, and he is going to blow
that horn at Q o'clock if he wakes every in
FAINT in the state of Michigaa and gives
every fond papa in Pennington an all
night job tramping the f@s- with his Off
spring. The parents are'a. determined as
Mike, and lawsuit is certain unless the
Business Mems association calls him off.

Mrs. L. Z. Gould and her Sunday School

Last Friday evening the pleasant and
commodious residence of Albert Todd was
the scene of very pleasant sOcia! event
given by Mrs. l.. K. Gould and her Sunday
school class of. the First Congregational
church, numbering nearly thirty young
people.
From seven-thirty to eight o'clock the
guests were ushered into the parlOr by
Lawrence Gould where they were received
by Mrs. Gould, Edwin Mosher, Mr.. and
Mrs. Austin. After little time had been
spent in that kind of conversation which
makes stranger feel at home, the follow
ing enjoyable program was rendered:
Piano solo-Gavotte Mazurka-Bessie johnson,
Childhood of Luther-Eleanor Sherman.
Luthers words. about music-Allie Thorne.
Woo, o. Laddie.

Violin solo, concerto by DeBeriot-Mabel Ferry.
Mosher.

Miss Frances Jones.
This program Was a credit to the partici-
pants and the music heard was excellent.
Mrs. Gould may we'll feel proud Of her class
and it was quite evident that the class holds
its teacher in high esteem.
The guests descended to the dining room
which they found prettily decorated and
where light refreshments were served by
the Misses Blanche Dooittle Agnes Car
mody and Clara Woodland. Miss Mamie
Todd presided with ease and grace at the
coffee urn. The company then returned to
the parlors where varied conversation
brought all too soon the hour for departure.
The knowledge of German displayed in
the rendition of the program would be graft
flying to the instructors of that language in
our city. Both in Mr.. Mosher's reading
and Miss jones' singing the pronunciation
was very correct and easy to understand.

EDITOR TINES:
In your paper last week there was an ar
ticle entitled THAT Pharmacy Law" written
by DIR. K. d. Ward. In 1t he states "Dr.
Perkins was pushed off from the pension
examining board to make room" Tor
me. wish to contradict that statement,
as It is untrue. In the first place, DR.. Per-
kins was one of the first ones Of my friends
to suggest me as a member of the board;
he was also one of the first ones 10 sign my
petition asking for my appointment. He
also aided me in every way he possibly
could to get the position, and, next, l aods
not appointed In his place, bat In place of
Dr. Jones, of COrunnG. And again, l
had received my commission quite W bile
before DIR. Perkins was removed from the
board; and in the next place DIR, Cowles, OF
Durand, was appointed in DR.. Perkins
place, as l can prove by DR.. Perkins himself
and by several other respectable citizens OF
OwossO who know the facts in the case, and
also by the records and documents on file in
Washington. In view of the above facts
consider the statement made by DR.. Ward a
gross injustice and an insult to me; and in
view of the friendly relations heretofore ex-
listing between Dr. Ward and myself, con-
slider his sneering remarks in regard to my
being foreign born entirely uncalled for and
contemplate. Yours respectfully,
S. S. g. PHIPPEN.
