]. M. TURNER DEAD.
Lansing Politician and Business
Man Died Suddenly at
Alma, Mich.
WAS AT THE SANITARIUM.
He Had Been i'm a Critical Con-
ditiOn for Some Time Ow-
ing to LaGrippe.

LANSING, Mich, July THE com
munity was greatly shocked this
morning by the announcement to
relatives in brief kilograms OF the
death at Alma Sanitarium, where he
was being treated, of ex-Mayor OF
Lansing, James Nj. Turner
He had been ailing for some time.
Early in the spring he contracted Il
severe cold, which developed into
grip. He recovered somewhat, but
his strong constitution was greatly
shattered. His family went to Alma
with him and remained several
weeks. He returned home much i'm
proved in health. While occupying
cottage at Pine Lake he suffered a
relapse and returned to Alma.
While his condition was regarded as
critical, his friends hoped for the
best, and were not prepared for his
death.
James NJ. Turner was born in 1880,
and his parents, who were sturdy
Vermonters, occupied the first frame
house ever built in Lansing town
ship, They 'came to Lansing from
Mason in 1917, and pitched a tent on
the bank of Grand river. Young
James grew up with the town, and
was probably one of the best known
and popular men that ever lived
there.
In early days he was employed as
a clerk, and when only - years of
age had charge of the construction
of the Jackson, Lansing Il Saginaw
railway. For years he was rail
road contractor and dealer in lands,
and at one time had charge Of the
Michigan interests of the Wander
bilts.
He was married in 1876 to Sophia
Porter Scott, of Lansing. who, with
two sons, james and Scott, l6 and
Is years old. survive him.
In later years he engaged in farm
ing and stock breeding He has al
ways been strong Republican,
serving in the legislature in 1871 and
twice as mayor of Lansing. having
just retired from office after being
elected by the largest majority ever
accorded mayor in the city.
Mr.. Turner and John I. Rich con-
tested before the Republican state
convention in 1890 for the homer Of
being its candidate for governor.
After an exceedingly hot fight,
Turner was victorious, but met de-
feat at the polls at the hands of
Winans, largely through the dis
satisfaction of Republicans, who
would not subscribe to the work OF
the convention.
Several years ago Mr. Turner
was interested in the Arvon slate
quarry, and also in the Huron Bay
* Iron Range railroad. He was
well known in L'Ansc, and il is
with great sorrow his numerous
friendship this vicinity learn OF his
death.

Lively as a Cricket.

Although in the first instance as sluggish as
a tortoise, the kidneys become as lively as a
cricket when a healthful impulse IS given to
them with HostetJer's Stomach Bltters, pro-
moter of activity in these organs which
counteracts tendency to their lethargy and
disease. Inaction OF the kidneys. it should
be remembered, is the first stage OF those dam
gerous renal maadies against which the re-
sources of medical science are too often ex-
hausted in vain. Peril is forestalled by the
Bitters, which averts Brights disease, dia-
betes, dropsy, gravel and the troubles arising
from weak bladder Equally eficacious is it
in checking and eradicating malarial. bilious
and nervous ailments, dyspepsia, constipa-
tion and rheumatism. Appetite and sleep
are improved and convalescence hastened by
its beneticent action. Either when health is
slightly or seriously impaired, the value of
this restorative and preventive medicine is
speedily made manifest.
