the association with set of the Columbian
Historical Novels, by John r. Musick. The
set consists of twelve volumes and cover the
history of America from its discovery to the
time of the Worlds Columbian Exposition.
Tales of love, adventure, conquest, war and
patriotism are so interestingly mingled with
the leading events of history that it COM
bines to make a work that will be enjoyed
by all readers. The gift was not only time
ly but is one that is appreciated by the as

Deputy Oil Inspector Curry.

While naturally the six unsuccessful can
didates in the county for deputy oil inspec-
tor will feel somewhat disappointed that
they did not win, still not one of them
wanted the appointment to 60 out of the
county, and we think all of them will join
THE TIMES in extending to Arthur L. Cur
ry, of this city, congratulations on his sue
cess. Mr.. Curry received his commission
Tuesday morning and will begin his duties
July 1st. The appointment was considera-
BILE of a surprise to Mr.. Curry, as he had
been given to understand that Howell
gentleman had been selected. 1t is need
less to state that both Mr.. Curry and his
friends are highly pleased with the outcome
of the long fight. That he will prove to be
careful inspector is beyond question. His
territory is the 18th district, comprising the
counties of Shiawassee, Clinton, Genesee,
Lapeer and Livingston.

Mrs. Charlotte Allmendinger, who lives
midway between Owosso and Corunna on a
farm south of the ID. & M., left home Satur.
day morning stating to the family that she
was going to Owosso to call on DR.. Perkins.
Not returning home during the day search
ing parties were organized in the evening
but no trace of her could be found. The
search was kept up Sunday without avail.

ton Co., who found her in his barnyard the
previous evening, quickly learning that she
was not in her right mind. Mr.. and Mrs.

roses.
After the ceremony dainty wedding
lunch was served, at which the little Misses

desires to see fitting monument erected In
public place in the county. A rising vote
was taken to find out the spirit of the bat
talon and 1t was unanimous in favor OF
such an undertaking. No definite steps
were taken but Col. Moyses has made his
declaration of intentions and will keep the
idea in motion.
Col. Crane was then called for and spoke
for few minutes. He, too, had OCCASION
ally wondered where he had been when he
listened to others tell of the war, but he oc-
casionally woke up to remember that he too
was in it. He was always glad of these oc-
casions and told of the thrills he experienced
as he grasped hand after hand of the old
comrades.
After benediction had been pronounced
by Comrade King the meeting adjourned,
though the people fingered for some time,
10th to leave the place which had thus been
the scene Of so many happy greetings and
secretly hoping against hope that all might
be spared to meet again next year.

Bicycle Path.

E. Wykes, chairman Of the committee
having in charge the matter of raising mon
ey for and constructing bicycle path from
Owosso to Corunna, said yesterday that
about $3.50 had been subscribed already,
and that the path was practically assured.
1t will start on east Main street near Dewey
and will probably run part of the way on
the south side of the road then change to
the north side. The path will be five feet
feet wide and on this end will receive top
dressing Of gravel. The east end will pro-
badly be a wider track. If all goes well
there is a strong probability that the path
will be continued through to Vernon and
Durand before fall.

Shiawassee u. of M. Students.

Miss Susie Mckee, of Morrice, sister of
Mrs. Chas. w. Gale, Of this city, is among
the number who have completed the Uni
yersity literary course this year and will re-
ceive their diplomas next week.
Owosso's only bona fide representative In
the graduating classes at Ann Arbor this
year, is T. Ed. Carmody, who takes the de-
gree of Doctor of Dental Surgery next week
at commencement. Ed. has done good
work in the department, has had his share
of class honors, and has had more than the
average amount Of actual practice. He
would make a success If he should locate
next year, but he may decide to return to
the University for another years work in
the medical department. Another graduate
upon whom Owosso people feel they have
strong claims is Carl Putt, who also gradu-
ates from the dental department next week.
Carl is well known in Owosso and his
friends will be pleased to know that his
work has been of the very best. He Is one
of the officers of his graduating class.
Owosso has every reason to take pride In
the work OF these boys, who will next week
be entitled to be addressed as 'doctor.n
All of Owosso's graduating interests this
year seem to be in the dental department,
for in addition to the above, Charles Shell
don, formerly of Vernon, who graduated
from the Owosso high school in '93, will
also take the degree of Doctor of Dental
Surgery next week.
Chas. l.. Watson, of Corunna, will gradu-
ate from the department of literature, sci-
ence and arts next week, receiving the de-
gree of Bachelor of Arts.

irving home by twos and threes all the week
as fast as examinations were finished up.
The majority of the Owosso members of the
delegation will spend the summer here, but
B. B. johnson expects to return to Ann Ar
bor soon to spend the summer at work in
that city and vicinity: E. I'll. Jacobs will
also probably return to Aun Arbor soon to
spend the larger part of the vacation assist
ing in the installation of the electric light
ing plant and the necessary wiring of the
buildings upon the University campus.

The present daily life of the ex-
Empress Eugene is in strange con-
trast to that formerly led by her. She
lives, when at Marlborough, in com
plete retirement, receiving only those
old friends who have retained pc
culiar right to her sympathy, graft
tude and regard. She attends mass
on most mornings, combining her de-
votions with visit to the mausoleum.
Each afternoon, wet or fine, the en-
press, who is now much crippled by
rheumatism, takes long drive. Since
the death of the prince she has given
nothing in the shape Of formal en-
tertainment. The empress has been
advised to spend some portion of each
year abroad, and has decided to make
her continental home at the Villa Cyr-
nos, on Cape Martin.

Fashion Notes.

New cloth redingotes are trimmed
with bands Of embroidered velvet.
Do not set your belt up so high ON
waist that it feels like it is short
wasted and pulling up.
Plaided and shot silk Russian
blouses will be worn with English
serge skirts throughout the autumn
season.
All cotton and linen goods are apt
to shrink, therefore do not forget to
turn down an extra inch at the top of
the skirt. D.
Stockinet and good rubber dress
shields can be washed in warm soap
suds, pulled into shape and dried by
hanging them in window.
Do not forget that better shape
can be given to cotton dress by cut
ting it off and then facing the lower
edge rather than hemming it.
Bent whalebones, the genuine arti-
Gle, are Strengthened by soaking them
in boiling water for few moments
and then ironing them straight.
Use small hooks and eyes for the
front of a dress and the extra large
for the skirt, which is fastened with
out seeing and needs larger catches.
Do not fail to run a skirt braid
along the under edge of street skirts
of linen or heavy cotton goods unless
You prefer to see the edge cut out af-
ter wearing them few times.
Some of the very smart fur gar
ments for the coming season have a
frilling of rich lace arranged inside of
the collar, with ruffies to match at the
edge of the faring sleeve cuffs.
A number of cloth capes lap across
the front like double-breasted coat,
and fasten with two or three large
handsome buttons. This style of cape
has small revers also, and is slightly
pointed front and back, and rather
short on the sides.
The deep rich CLEOPATRA" colors
will all be in marked favor this season;
the tawny golden browns, russets and
the choudron or pinkish copper tints
mixed with other dark dyes; also many
fruit and foliage shades; and particu-
larly the velvety reds and yellows Of
the wallhower and nasturtium.
The Recamier bodice made by
French modistes has a seamless back,
bias front, and is cut in a low round
ing shape, the edge exquisitely
draped. 1t is quite long-waisted, but
this effect is changed by soft wide
silk sash that is wound twice around
the waist, falling in long ends ct the
LETT side.

Woman on "a New York Jury.

Miss Rosalie Loew, counsellor at
law, claims the honor Of being the first
woman who has ever served as Juror
in this state. 1t was at Judge Gold
fogle's fifth judicial district court in
Clinton street, Brooklyn, recently,
when landlord and tenant came up
for trial. A juror was needed and it
seemed hopeless task to fill the last
panel, when Judge Goldfogle sug-
gested that perhaps the vacant seat in
the jury might be filed by one of the
lawyers present. The counsel OBJ
iected, but when they looked in the
direction in which the courts eye was
turned and saw a well-dressed young
lady they said they would be much
pleased to have Miss Rosalie Loew fill
the vacant chair. Afterward the Judge
remarked that Miss Loew made a
model Juror. She paid the closest at
tention to all the testimony, and at no
time did she allow it to be noticed that
she wanted to be more lawyer than
juryman. New York Commercial Ad-

Filled with hope and flushed with health,

He hunts for natures boarded wealth

Filled with hope and flushed with health,
with wistful eve and willing hand,
He hunts for natures boarded wealth
From mountain crest to ocean strand
Around the camp fire oft he lies,
In northern lands of ice and snow;
Again. he sleeps meath southern skies,
Where soft the tropic breezes blow.
He braves the thirst. and stakes his claim
Upon the burning deserts sands
And risks the red marauders aim,
And bandits bold, in Aztec lands.
The smudge he lights, mt eventide.
And slings his hammock meath ti-s tree
Where sweeps the Orinoco. Wide,
To wed the blue-waved Carribee.
On Afrlc's dark and distant shore,
From peak to plain, from brook to bay,
Mid serpents hiss and lions roar,
He seeks the lustrous diamonds ray.
On far Australia's lonely soil,
When low the sun sinks In the est,
O'ercome by travel or by toll.
Reclining on the ground, at rest.
When naught is heard but the Dingo's cry,
And the owl and bat fit to and fro.
He draws sigh for the times, gone by,
OF Ballarat and Bendigo.
When on the hills the twilight falls,
In the "sun-kissed land OF flower and
vine"
With old-time friends he oft recalls
Those golden days Of AZ.
When armed with shovel pick and pan,
They thither came from lands afar,
And slulces set and rockers ran
From Suffers mill to Sawyer's bar.
Where sovereign state and nation stand
And spired cities proudly rear.
There he is found the foremost man,
The patriot and the pioneer.
With fearless heart and hopeful breast,
And naught but fortune In his mind;
North and south and east and west
He seeks until he strikes his find.

Women Wearing JeweIed Crosses.

The up-to-date woman wears her
cross if she is so fortunate as to pos
sess one. AS an article OF jewelry
this symbol of suffering is as popular
as it was in the days of our grand
mothers. When the grandmothers
were girls the possession of hand
some bejeweled cross that could be
worn as a pin, hair ornament or a
locket amounted almost to badge of
aristocracy. The black ones, studded
with diamonds or pearls, or both.
were the highest in favor, as they are
today. The fashionable cross must be
antique-looking. Not everybody's
grandmother possessed one, however,
so the jewellers have come to the res
cue of the woman who did not fall
heir to one and are bringing out ex-
quisite designs in Roman gold. Most
Of them are studded with precious
stones and many have backgrounds of
black enamel. 1t is by no means q
taking form of personal adornment, but
the women like it.--Manufacturers

False Teeth Take Rot.

A Russian druggist has, according
to the London Figaro, at length solved
the problem of supplying us with false
teeth which will grow into the gums
as firmly as natural ones. The teeth
are made of gutta percha, porcelain or
metal, as the case may be. At the
root of the tooth holes are made, and
also in the jaw. The tooth is then
placed in the cavity, and in short
time soft, granulated growth finds
its way from the jaw into the holes of
the tooth. This growth gradually
hardens and holds the tooth in posi-
tion.
1t does not matter in the least, ao-
cording to this enterprising Russian
dentist, whether the cavity in which .
natural tooth has recently been drawn
or whether it has been healed for
months or even years.

Her Mint Farm Is n Mint.

"Possibly the most curious farm
around this city," said saloon man
recently, sis mint farm out near the
fair grounds. 1t is operated by a
woman, and is the only one know of.
She has all the principal saloons and
restaurants in the city for customers,
and makes a very comfortable living.
She does not waste her time on small
groggeries. Some of the larger places
buy as much as S2 or S3 worth Of
mint day in the summer, when
cocktails and the hotter drinks give
way to Virginia toddies, iuleps and
other concoctions which require sprig
of the aromatic herb. The product
of her farm shows the good result Of
careful cultivation, for, unlike the or
dinary mint, it has no runners, with
troublesome roots. Each sprig grows
erect. Her farm yields enough in
summer to enable her to live in ease

The thriving city of Williamsport,
Penn, has adopted a weed ordinance
requiring all householders to keep
their properties free from all vegeta-
BILE nuisances that mar the lawns and
injure the gardens. A small penalty
is provided for negligence and a strict
enforcement is said to operate most
benefcially to the general appearance
of the city. We all have so much to
do in this country Though for several
years hundreds of thousands of able
bodied men have been unable to find
anything to do) that we have not yet
come to realize the duty each owes to
all to prevent the spread of weeds.
Here indeed ga stitch in time saves
nine," only the ratio of the multipli-
cation of weeds due to letting them
go to seed is far greater than this. If
our farm and village communities
would only swear the vendetta against
all maturing weeds, as in the old
countries of Europe, these pests,
which are now so disastrous to agri.
culture, could be largely eradicated.
