THAN RUNS.

There was first rate attendance at

Silks entertained the Howard City
boys who beat them in the Fourth of
July game in that city, but the visi-
tors were easy game and our boys de-
monstrated the fact that they, even II
they have to go up against the umpire
can play ball. The features OF the
game were: Crosby's fielding: Fish
and Crosby's batting; Foster, Crosby
and Holmes stealing bases, Ranney
and Crosby's run-getting. Fish got Is
and Foster s of the q put outs by the
Bedding team. The pitching by Driese
and Smith, the latter pitched two
innings To rest Driese and he struck
out OF the six men who came to bat.

CONTEST OVER WILLS.

The will of Chas w. Putney and also
that of his wife is being contested in
the Probate court at Ionia. Before
Mr.. Putney died he bequeathed to his
wife and his heirs all the property
amounting TO five or six thousand dol
lars, the intention being as it is claimed
that his wife should have the use of all
of it during her lifetime and at her
decease IL should go 20 his only son,
Charles II. Putney Of Ionia.
Mrs. Putney was second wife but
not the mothe; of G.. II. Putney, fear
ing that Mr.. Putney's will might be-
misconstrued and that at her death the
son, Chas. II. Putney would be put to
trouble and expense in coming into
possession of the property, she also
made n will bequeathing to him.
!, Nm1pan Pntncy is .h~other cf Chas,
w. Putney and they married sisters.
the formers wife now claims To be the
rightful heir of the property on por-
tion of it at least, and is making
fight for it. Chas. III. Putney Is the
only heir of G. w. Putney. A number
OF witnesses from this city are in
attendance at the hearing today.

An exchange says new party has
added three new planks to its new plat
form, as follows: 1.-THE first one is to
cross the lightning bug and the honey
bee, so that the latter can see to work
at night, thus doubling the supply of
honey and making it cheaper to the
consumer. The second plank demands
that the hog shall be crossed with the
centipede, so that each hog will have
100 hams, and the new party can eat
hams three times day. The third
plank proposes to engraft the straw
berry upon the milk-weed, so that the
people can have strawberries and
cream without having to mix them.
These planks are so seductive that it
is expected that everyone will flop over
to the new party"

the matter. II enough pledges for

covering OF expenses, course of four
first class entertainments will be given.
These will consist of the following:
An illustrated lecture on the justly

Herbert A. Sprague, the noted imper-
