Murdered Cashier strubIe's Dying Statement
Proved Untrue.

SHEPHERD. Mich, Aug. 27.-Cashier Struble
Of the Farmers Bank in his dying statement
named cx.Probate Judge Elijah Z. Wheaton Of
Mount Pleasant, W. n. Brown of Ann Arbor.
and Dennis Ryan, father Of the owner Of the
bank, as the men who attacked him at the bank.
Wheaton at the time the robbery occurred was
fishing in Manistee county and could not have
returned in time, Brown was confined to his bed
at his summer home in Travers City, and Dennis
Ryan has nearly q complete alibi. Almost every
kind OF runor is in circulation concerning
progress made by the swarms Of detectives.
but the county officers who are working on the
case are doing everything possible to hide
whatever clues they may have.
Il has become known that the murdered
cashier about a week before his death took from
the bank to his house a large package OF private
papers, containing notes and the like. These
papers have disappeared. The alihis OF tho
three men named destroy any use which
Struble's ante norton statement might have
furnished.

ATLANTA, Ca. Aug. 27.-Thomas e. Watson
says he will dispose Of his newspaper soon and
forsake politics forever. He says that Western
Populists will soon unite with Silver Democrats,
and that the party in the South will not be able

creased of late and his. services as a criminal
lawyer arc In demand all over the South.
Watson says he prefers making money to an
uncertain political fame. He Is also engaged in
writing histories OF Joan OF Arc and of France.

exclusively to his law business and literary pur.

a 100000 Rain.


We believe that the general
rains Of this week were worth
at least 100000 to the
planting interests Of TerrebOnne
aud especially to che cane crop.
Many portions of the parish have
been suffering tor rain for some
time and as . consequence the
cane crop was considerably behind
last years crop in size. THE rains
Of this week will give the cane q
chance to gain tie ground it lost
the dry season, and Il the
total yield Of sugar for Terrebonne
does not equal that of last season
TIE CoURIER doesn't know how
to estimate With the prospects
Of asplendid yield and equally as
encouraging premises for a fair
selling price for sugar the people
OF Terrebonne aught to teel that
they have lots to be thankful for.
notwithstanding interestingly
inclement weather a number of
people assembled at the
home Of Mr. and Mrs. A.
+. Davidson last Wednesday night
and enjoyed themselves to the
fullest until u late hour. The
was q fancy dress aud
affair given by the
Social Club, aud many
Of the costumes worn by the young
were artistically gotten up.

country people from attending the

acOOl evening for dancing,
and enjoyed themselves immensely.
