YALE ST. Clair County. FRIDAY OCTOBER 7. 1893
DOUBLE. SORROW.

In last weeks issue of this paper the
dangerous condition of little Stuart
MenZies was noted, Notwithstanding
the doubts expressed by the family
physician, he seemed better and friends
began TO hope for recovery. This ap-
parent hopeful change caused the COM
munity to rojoice. Alas these hopes
were doomed to perish.
On Monday the sad news spread that
Stuart was much worse and council
of physicians had been summoned.
At 3 p. m. that day the announcement
that he was dead cast deep gloom on
all the community. As n last resort,
the attending physicians performed
traoheotomy, but the little heart was
to heavily loaded with the poison of
disease, and the patient sank despite
the benefits of the operation.
Stuart MenZies was born in Yale Sep
tember ~, 1889, and died of diphtherla
October 8, 1898, being years and is
days old at the time of decease. At
$50 on the evening of his death, an as
sembly of sympathising and weeping
neighbors met on the sidewalk and in
the front of the stricken home, and
brief service of prayer was conducted
by the writer. The little body was then
born to Elmwood cemetery where, in
the silence of the mOonlit night, it was
laid TO rest beside the cot of sister Ali
son, who was buried few days pre-
viOus.

ATTACKS PUTNEY.
Banty English and His Swamp Evan
gel on the War Path.


The banty politician who perches on
his little peg in the Republican sanctum
at Sanilac Centre and is under the de-
lusion that the little crows he emits
from that swampy region are heard all
over the Thumb, must have had his
feathers ruffied of late. The way he
stuck his little spurs into Hon. Gilmore
Putney in last weeks issue of the
Swamp Evangel was caution. No
blood was drawn nor eyes pecked out.
The fight is not in our lot, nor among
our chickens, but we enjoy the fun Of
sitting on the fence and seeing the
banty work his little legs. In honor
of his pluck in attaching cocks so much
larger and broader than himself, we
suggest that some one go out and dig
him plate of worms.
Because Mr.. Putney did not propose
to let the little strutter and the "gang"
rise up and smite him and cast him by
the way side, politically dead, simply
because he would not cross his heart
and swear he would vote for million
aire Pack for L. S. Senator, and does
not propose to have anything to do
with the banty and the dirty politics
that defeated him, the little fellow
flapps his wings and crows as though
he were Chief cock of the whole uni
verse. But Mr.. Putney will be respect
ed as an upright citizen and represen-
tatiye politician long after the banty
and his Swamp Evangel are forgotten
as a political force.

SECURED A CONFESSION.

A pretty slick piece of detective
work was done here recently which re-
suited in the arrest Of the two Moxley
brothers, married men, and u young
man named Vroman, for alleged barn
burning. About three months ago,
John Mathews, wealthy farmer and
money lender, lost his extensive barns
with all their contents including nine
teen horses by fire. Suspicion pointed
to the above parties, but no clear evi-
dence was forth coming to fasten up
the guilty parties. About three weeks
ago smooth faced lad appeared in
the neighborhood, "hail fellow, well
met, with the boys, and claiming he
was sent into the country by his father
to be out of the reach of the wicked
haunts of the city with the view to his
reformation. The young chap had
lots of money and spent it freely
thus getting into the good graces of
the suspected parties, and bit by bit he
revealed himself to them as a real deS-
perado. ready for any desperate deed.
Unsuspiciously the bait was swallowed, ,
and they in return for his confidence
in them, confessed to the hand they
took in the barn burning and an
nounced their willingness to under
take anything from burglary to
even murder, and rob the old gentle
man and burn the rest Of his buildings
which was to have been done on Sat
urday night. In the meantime job
was put up to burglarize William Nc
lntyre's store on Friday night. The
sheriff of Sanilac county was of
course in close touch with the scheme
aud while engaged in that enterprise
they were nabbed and are now in
Sanilac county Jail waiting their trial.

{. G. Boice A Busy Man.

BY the way the Port Huron papers
are devoting so much space to the
great millinery display at e. G. Boice's
store and from the great crowd Of
sight seers that has visited his place
the past week, this man must be kept
very busy. We learn that the grow
ing business of this department has
made it necessary to engage several
extra experts. This store has intro
duced the idea of making the most
stylish hats at prices considerable less
than usual millinery shops ask, and it
has met with astonishing success.

Obituary.

On silent wings death entered the
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Saul Tice last
Friday night and carried away little
Harry, aged.l years and months. The
funeral took place at one O'Clock
Sunday and the little form was laid to
rest in Elmwood cemetery.
Our little blooming bud is blighted,
A flower we loved so well
His prattling words we hear no more,
For he's where the Angels dwell
His toys are lying all around,
And scattered DER the floor;
His merry frolicks on earth are done,
And he'll play with us no more.
God knows best and called him home,
Away from this world of care,
But bye and bye we'll gain our crown
And meet our darling there.

Responsibility of Congress

There are a number of democrats in
the house and senate who take a differ
ent view of the situation and are oppos-
ed to an adjournment until the Cuban
question is finally dispose of. One of the
leading spirits on that side of the ques-
ton is Senator Bacon, of Georgia, who
said:
There are a number of senator's on
poth SIDES OF the hambe who will NOT
consent to an early adjournment. SO
long as the present conditions continue L
should be emphatically opposed to an ad-
1Ournment of congress either early or
late. We are now confronted by most I'M
usual conditions. There is great and i'm
mlnent anger of war, and no man can
say whether or not there will be war. No
man can say whether the developments
OF the near future will require that there
should or should not be war. That is a
most momentous question, the determi-
nation of which is expressly devolveed by
the constitution on congress-. 1t states
In words that it is for congress TO de-
clare war;
The power to declare war necessarily
involves the duty to say whether there
shall be war or peace. This is not a
question which the constitution devolveS
upon the president to determine. Accord
ing to my view congress has no right to
shirk this responsibility. AS long as there
is a danger Of war it is, in my opinion,
the duty of congress to stay in session
and perform its duty in determining
when the question is presented whether
there shall be peace or war. So long as
conditions threaten war it would, in my
Judgment, with all respect to those who
differ from me, be an abdication OF Its
journ and turn that question over 20 the
president for his determination. 1t is
no d~isreSpect or want Of p-oper conf
dence in the president to say this.
