D,sastrous Error m a New Law.

An error, which may lead to disas-
trous complications, has been discov-
cred in the Graham law amending the
general tax law, so as to change the
time of the annual tax sales from De-
cember to May. 1t has always been
the custom to continue The sales by
the county treasurer from day to day
until all the delinquent descriptions
have been offered, and in many coun-
ties the lists are so extensive that it is
an impossibility to offer all the lands
in a single day. The recent legislature
intended to re-enact this provision, but
the house clerk who engrossed the bill
changed the entire provision by insert
ing the word mot" thus providing
that such sale ''shall not be continued. "
The word mot" does not appear in the
original bill as passed by the two
houses, but is in the bill as signed by
the governor. The auditor and attor-
general are trying to figure out
some way of getting around the diff
Guilty.

Observation-Disclosures Iso7-s.

General State Accountant Humphrey
has completed official figures giving
in detail the amount and the pur-
pose of each appropriation made by
the legislature for each of the years
1897 and 1898. These figures show
that the special appropr1a tons of the
Legislature aggregate Sl,2S4, 177.23 for
1897, and S966, 952. O2 for 1898. To these
totals must be added the levy for the
general purposes of the state govern
ment and the fixed charges provided
for by previous legislatures, in order
to obtain the total amount of state tax
for these years, which for 1897 will be
2,379, 907. 23, as compared with S3,0l3,
9l9. So for 1895; and for 1898 it will be
So, 012, @97. O2, as compared with 81, O6s,-
SIS. GO for 1896 The total for the cur
rent two years is Si,392, 1925, as
against SIS, 0S2. ass. IA for the previous
biennial period. This shows saving
of 5000, $3.50 in favor of the present
Legislature, There were however, as
the lawyers say, eXtenuating circum-
stances which favor the previous legis-
lature, as an appropriation of 100000
had TO be made to make up a deficiency
from the years 1894.

She drives to and from her school each day.
She is stout and robust, and in the best

The reporter happened to meet this young

and learned that although her daughter 10
now in the best of health, last winter she
was suffering untold agony from troubles
arising from exposure.
Mrs. Cones said: "Sarah hns been teach

the same school and got along well until
last december, when the weather was I'M

''Sarah used one box of tho pills with

Miss Sarah, who entered at this time

also the druggists of Aurora. The drug

They build up the blood, and restore the

In men they effect a radical cure in all
cases arising from mental worry, overwork

Many English Massacred in India.

Dispatches from Simla, India, report
serious trouble on the frontier. Two
guns of the Bombay mounted battery,
escorted by 300 men from the First reg
iment of Sillhs and the First Punjaub
infantry, were attacked by a large
force of hostile natives in the Tochi
valley. In the fight which followed
Col. Bunny, two other officers and %
privates were killed. All of the Brit
ish officers and 25 privates were Sc
verely injured. In addition many
horses and mules were killed 1t is
thought that the notorious mullah of
Powindah instigated the attack.

Detroit Captured by Moslems.

The City of the, Straits, the beautiful
metropolis of a splendid state, has in
its history witnessed some great and
Interesting crowds assembled within
it's gates, from Indian councils of war
and OF peace to the national encamp-
nent of the G. A. r., including state,
national and international conventions
of all kinds. But never until this
memorable month of June has she ever
entertained or been entertained by such
a gathering as when the mobiles of the
imperial council of Ancient and Arabic
0Eder of the Mystic Shrine, with
their camels, elephants and caravans,
swept across the deserts from New
York, and Texas, and Oshkosh, and
windy, wicked Chicago and elsewhere
throughout Uncle Sans domains and
took possession of the entire city. The
fame of the oasis of Detroit was well
sustained and the mobiles lacked for
nothing. They drank their fill from
the sweet flowing waters and ate to
their limit of the bountiful products of
the place. Likewise they took eXcur-
siOns 60 various points of interest in
and near the city and had any amount
of jolly fun. Incidentally a little bust
ness was transacted including the cleo
ton of new officers with Albert ID. Nc
.Gaffey. of Denver, Col, as imperial
potentate. The cowboy Arabs of
Texas captured the imperial council
with a iasso and nearly drowned the
members in tarantula juice before Sc
curing promise to visit Dallas next
June.

Attempt to XIII President of France.
An attempt was made to assassinate
Felix Faure, president of the French
republic, while he was enroute to
Longchamps to witness the Grand
PriX. While NJ. Faure's carriage was
passing n thicket near La Cascade
restaurant, in the Bots de Boulogne, a
bomb, which subsequently proved to
be piece of tubing about six inches
long and two inches in diane ter, with
n thickness of half an inch. charged
with powder and swanshot, exploded.
No one was injured by the explosion.
A man in the crowd suspected as the
prime mover, was arrested.
The attempt on the life of NJ. Faure
was made on the very spot where
Berezowslly tried to shoot the ear of
Russia while driving to the military
review at Longchamps IN 1867, and
where Francois, a lunatic, fired his re-
volver at NJ. Faure on July Ia last.
Having this in mind. the police had
taken extra precautions. Mr.. Faure
continued his journey and on his ar
rival at the race course Inc was warmly
congratulated on his escape by the
Grand Duke Sergius, Mr.. HanotauX
and other members OF the cabinet.
The presidents sang froid will greatly
increase his popularity.
1t is generally believed that the act
was that of a mailman rather than
of conspirator.

REVIEW OF TRADE.

The gain in business continues, not with
out fluctuations. and at the best moderate,
bat vet distinct u is still in quantities
rather than prices, although in some lines
an advance In prSces appears, but on the
whole the number of hands employed. the
volume of new orders aud amount OF work
done are increasing Prospect OF good crops
of wheat and cotton helps growing demand
from dealers whose stocks gradually gain
ing consumption depleted. and in the money
and exchange market large buying of Amer
lean securities has an influence. Wheat
looks well and the best trade authority now
estimates the yield at 5l5DOO,JOO bushels,
with many state and railroad returns to
supportit. Among the encouraging features
noticed are the improvement In May rail-
road earnings and the advance In the price
of Bessemer pig iron.

Crop Report COR June.

The Michigan crop report for June
is of unusual Importance. 1t says that
the average condition of wheat June
/, was in the southern counties SO, and
in the state rs. One year ago the aver
ages were 90 and n. Wheat is late,
aud has been injured more than usual
by the wet weather The plant is
quite generally reported yellow" near
the ground. The presence of insects
is not noted.
The number of bushels of wheat re-
ported marketed in May is 610,975, as
compared with 537, 749 reported in May,
1896, and the amount in the 10 months,
August May, is 1913, 3o4 bushels, as
compared with s,3l0.6l9 bushels in the
same months last year.
The acreage planted TO corn is re-
ported at 90 per cent of average years.
The acreage sowed to oats is 81 per
cent, and the average condition of this
crop is Sc per cent The average con-
dition of meadows and pastures, and
of clover sowed this year is 9s. Apples
promise about two thirds, and peaches
one-fourth of average crops. One year
ago the estimates were 90 per cent for
apples and SO per cent for peaches.
Farm wages are lower than one year
ago in each section of the state, and
one year ago they were lower than
in 1895.
The number of sheep now on hand
in the state is nearly 8 per cent less
than sheared in 1896. 1t is probable
the complete returns will show less
than 100000 sheep 6 months old ana
over in the state this spring.

together with their refusal to discuss
the retention of Thessaly by Turkey,

He kept in telegraphic communication
with most of the European capitals.
and gave stringent orders to the grand
vizier, who Immediately resigned. The
special commission ACCOMPLISHING moth
ing but a split among its members, the
majority of whom expressed them
selves emphntically as opposed to
yielding to the powers. The Turks
are very angry at.the alleged brusque
declaration of Sir Phillip Currie, the
British ambassador, that England will
never permit Christians to return to
Turkish rule. 1t is also stated that
the German ambassador is very much
Disconnected to find Count Nelidoff,

Sir Phillip in this respect, and though
it is still alleged that Germany is adj
