There were not as many people in
town TO attend the festival of the Anti
Saloon Daughters on Saturday last as
had been expected. The heavy rain of
the preceding day and muddy roads
undoubtedly kept people at home. The
ladies served dinner at the Baptist
church and large audience gathered
at the Methodist church in the after
noon to listen to an eloquent address
delivered by Prof. O. A. Wright, Sec
retary of the Michigan Anti-Saloon
league. The church was tastily dec
Grated for the occasion.

A certain magistrate in this county,
a circuit court commissioner, once upon
a time, and not so many years ago, is
sued civil warrant for the arrest of
certain individual who has since been
and now is prominent business man
in this county. The sheriff was unable
to serve the warrant for the reason that
he could not find the defendant. The
docket kept by the magistrate contains
the following unique entry: "The sheriff
made return TO the warrant issued in
this proceeding of Non est cdtchi6uS nil
de cdtchifcdndUn. That the defendant
feeling guilty and being haunted by fear
had skipped for Dakota"
The Baptist church has begun hold
ing the special meetings, of which
mention has been made heretofore.
Rev. DR.. Perrin will have charge of the
meetings, beginning next Monday
evening. A cordial invitation is ex-
tended TO the pastors and members of
all the churches in Paw Paw 10 partici-
pate freely in all the services. = 1t is the
hope and the desire of the people of
the Baptist church that the meetings
may result in abundant blessings for all
the churches and for the entire COM
munity, and therefore extend to other
pastors and churches equal liberty with
their own in all the services
The Van Buren county inspiration
institute held at South Haven last week
was one of the very best institutes ever
held in the county. Resolutions were
passed by the convention expressing
sincere thanks to Superintendent j. +.
Hammond and Commissioner Wells
Brown for the appointment of this in
stitute, and to Professors King and
Barbour and Commissioner Flora
Beadle for the excellent instruction and
soul inspiration given the teachers of
Van Buren, county. The local COM
mittee consisting of Commissioner
Brown and Superintendent Prentice
did their work admirably, in providing
places of entertainment, decorations
etc.
The divorce case of Dir. A. w. Hen.
drick VS. Harriet Hendrick, which has
occupied prominent place before the
public at Muskegon, has turned into
new channels. Judge Russell has made
and fled an order in the circuit court
ordering Hendrick to show cause why
J he should not be punished for contempt
, of court, he having failed TO pay ali
mony ordered by the court on Septem-
| ber % last after the divorce proceed
ings had been begun. Mrs. Hendrick
made application and was awarded
temporary alimony. The doctor was
ordered to pay $50 solicitors fee, S25
October l, $50 November and S15
monthly thereafter On October 20 a
: supplementary order was made which
ordered the payment of $50 solicitors,
fee November and $15 monthly there
after during the pendency of the suit.
These orders he has disregarded. A
: later dispatch says the doctor will pay

probably be withdrawn.
The jackson Evening Press of last
Wednesday says: For some time,
negotiations have been pending looking
to the location in this city of q new
manufacturing industry. While it will
not require new factory building, and
no bonus is asked, the prospects are
that large number of additional hands.
,, will be employed. y The
! Challenge churn has been manufactured
in Paw Paw for number of years and
has stood the test, now being recognized
p as the best churn on the market +. R.
! Bassett, manager of the Challenge
) Churn Manufacturing company, has
! been in the city several days and has
: concluded negotiations with the Aspin-

his churns in any quantity desired, and
