of opinion as to how the grub gets I'M

that the egg is taken into the stomach
by the animals licking themselves,

the grubs gradually work their way
toward the surface, where they remain
until fully grown Others hold that the
eggs hatch where they are laid and the
young larvae bury themselves at once

Co. G Boys Home on Furlough.

Roy Woodruff has had his furlough ex-
tended and is looking greatly improved in
health.
Jerry Maloney is still quite low at his
home near Burton but is beginning to i'm
prove slowly.
Fred Kamm went directly to his home in
New Buffalo, without coming to Owosso.
According to the reports of the other boys
he must be in very weak condition. His
Owosso friends hope to see him again soon,
greatly improved In health.
Orrie l.. Norcross has been down town
once or twice but is too weak to get around
with any comfort. AT present he suffers
with a most dsagreeable fermentation of
the bowels. 1t is to be hoped, however,
that efficient medical attendance and good
care will soon bring him around to health.
Archie Hammond is another of the boys
who arrived with Norcross Monday MORN
ing, and who is also reduced nearly to
shadow. With good nursing. however, he
will probably pick up rapidly and soon be
out again as before.

sickness-worst of all-and grim despair,
until consciousness fed-these and these
only, have been able to do what Mauser
bullets and rapid fire guns failed to do and
these are the grim allies of death which
have placed our city in mourning. And
now, nearly four months after the boys so
gallantly marched out of the city, now,
after peace has once more been declared,
and the dangers should be over, two stricken
families are called on to undergo the ordeal
which a hundred families felt sure they
would or at least might be called upon to
endure, and mourn the loss of son and
brother.
Dan j. Maloney, the first victim, was one
Of the last who would have been thought
likely to become victim of disease. He
was about twenty-six years of age and of
splendid physique. He was one of the
finest appearing boys In the company,
though usually quiet and always unassum
ing. He formerly worked as motormaA on
the street car line here. but at the time
when the company was ordered out he was
with his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. Patrick
Maloney, on their farm near Burton, where
his brother now lies, home on furlough and
still very low from the effects of fever.
Lewis Tick was twenty-five years of age
and seemed the very embodiment of wiry
toughness. He was the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Fred Tick on Corunna Avenue. News
of his death which is supposed to have
occurred Monday reached the city Tuesday
morning. Lew had been in the hospital
with diphtheria but was supposed to have
recovered and be able to be around again.
He had been member of the company for
nearly three years. When at home he
worked as veneerer in the Estey factory.
He leaves father and mother, one brother,
Rudolph, aud four sisters.
Since the first receipt of the news Of
Private Maloney's death the various flags
about the city have hoated at half mast as
small tribute on the part of the community
at large to those who have sacrificed their
lives at the nations call. 1t is needless to
say that the afflicted families have the
sympathy of the entire city and county.

Its New Mine Now Fairly Opened-Me-
chanical Equipment-Possibilities of
Development-Extent of the Supply.
If any one has supposed that the Owosso
Coal Company's mine, east of Owosso, is
not in every way laid out and equipped for
business on a large scale, a visit to the mine
itself would dispel that view. A TIMES
representative, who knew something of the
preparations which had been made, visited
the mine and explored its interior, Monday
afternoon, but even he was surprised at the
completeness of the up-to- date equipment
and the extent of the coal bed controlled by
the company. The only thing now neces-
sary to ensure the largest coal business ever
done in this part of the state is the building
of side track to the mines, and this 1t is
expected will soon be done. AS soon as
this is completed the business cannot fail to
begin to boom, for the high grade of coal is
already creating reputation for 1t which
will prepare the way for larger foreign sales.
OF course without the railroad the sales
are limited to the local trade, and teams are
kept constantly at work hauling 1t In for
use under the various boilers of OwossO
factories, where its quality has been recog-
nized for long time About the county,
too, Its reputation has gradually spread
until 1t Is not uncommon to see what oc.
CURED Monday, when two farmers drove
fourteen miles to get loads of this COAL
The hoisting and pumping plant at the
mine was installed with the idea of the
growth of the business constantly In mind,
and in consequence, while not so large as to
prevent the profitable working of the prop
erty on small scale, the equipment is suf-
ficient for handling as high as FIVE hundred
tons day. Steam Is furnished by two
sixty horse power boilers, fed by an auto
matte pump which exhausts Its own steam
into the feed water, thus raising Its tenn
perature before forcing II into the boilers.
The engines are of the usual hoisting or
steam boat style, reversible and under per-
feet control. They were built by the
Marine Iron Co.. of Bay City, and though
they are compact, and occupy but little
space, yet owing to the size Of the cylinders
they can develop fifty horse power without
resorting to high steam pressures. At the

Institution at Northampton, Mass, In
an Examiners Hands.
The controller of the currency has re-
ceived q telegram from Bank Examiner
Ever stating that he had taken charge of
the Hampshire County National Bank of
Northampton. Mass. The president. who.
the examiner says, is a defaulter to the
amount Of $4,000 or 100000, is reported as
missing.
The president of the national bank is
said to be also president Of the Hampshire
Savings bank, and the discovery of the de-
falcation was made through a ruse. The
government bank examiner made an ar
rangement through the state examiner for
an investigation Of the two banks at the
same time.
They are located in the same building,
andby this scheme it was made impossible
for those in charge to transfer funds from
one to the other to cover up shortages.
In its last statement the officers of the ma
honal bank reported, capital, $3.50, 600; de-
pcsits, $4,000; surplus, $4,000.
