Saginaw, Mich. Jan. 24.-If a plan
outlined by a few women is carried out
Saginaw will have one of the liveliest
anti-saloon crusades in its history. Each
supporter of the plan will sign an agree
ment to go to the utmost extreme in
attacking the liquor traffic. Headed by
a band of music, wives, mothers, Sis
tiers and daughters will form in line
and march through the streets, pro-
claiming woe to any place that fiaunts
a liquor sign. A body9dard of men will
follow to protect them.
If the regular officers of the law do
not act the women will give saloon
keepers twenty-four hours notice to
close their places, else the marching
column will fall upon them. Beer and
whisky are to be dumped from the
docks into the river so the women say.
A quiet canvass of adherents is now
under way

THAT ROW IN THE DEPUTIES.
Scene of Fighting That Has Never Bee
EQualled.

Equalled.
Paris, Jan. 25.-During the disturb
ance in the chamber of deputies the
scene Of fighting around the tribune
was unparalleled. Comte De Bernis Is
retired cavalry officer and has the
rough manners of the bull-fighting
town of Mines, where he will be can
didate at the next elections. M. Jaures
is thick-set, florid and hairy. NJ Ger
ault Richard is Withholding. The lat
ter was hustled and knocked about like
a football in his attempt to deal Comte
De Bernis q blow. Some eighty depu-
ties were in the fight Coats were torn
to tatters and cravats were seized in
the attempts to choke an opponent.
During a lull in the fight M. Gerault
Richard was seen in tatters. his cravat
torn off and his shirt front torn open,
while his sympathizers were patting
him on the back.
Suddenly Comte De Bernis bounded
up the stairs Of the tribune on all fours
like an animal, dealt M. Jaures heavy
blow on the back of the head and
kicked him on the legs. Mr.. JaureS
was knocked over and stumbled down
the steps. Picking himself up, he saw
Comte De Bernis making off with a
crowd of deputies, while the remainder
of the house hooted him, crying Cow
ard" and traitor" M. Jaures threw q
knotted handkerchief after him. Comte
De Bernis seemed paralyzed and the
house cheered M. Jaures, while a body
of Socialists made another rush at
Comte De Bernis and the melee was re-
newed as furious as before.
M. Brisson, president of the chamber,
finding 1t hopeless to restore order, de-
parted, and the military entered, at the
request, it is said, of questor, who
feared loss Of life If the scenes were
continued 1t seems that Comte De
Bernis had provoked the animosity
of the Socialists at a previous sitting
by accusing them of being in the way
of the Dreyfus syndicate. Several of
the Rightists have asked the Socialists
to let the matter drop on the ground
that Comte De Bernis was not in his
usual state. The humorous element of
this disgracefui scene was supplied by
the Mussulman deputy, NJ. Grenier,
who, during the attitude of prayer he
assumed in the height of the fighting,
helplessly waved his white burnous
giving the effect of huge duck flap
ping the water with its wings. Opin-
ions differ greatly as to the outcome
of the affair. Some say the cabinet has
gained a great victory; others believe
a dissolution of parliament imminent.
Today Paris has the appearance Of
being in a state of siege and 1000 po-
lice and soldiers hold the Place dc la
Concorde.

MARRIED SEVENTY YEARS.
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles La Fountaine Who
Live In Delta County, Mich.


Live In Delta County, Mich.
Menominee, Mich. Jan. 26.-Bark
River, Delta county, thirteen miles
from Escanaha, where the Northern
Cedar company of this city has estab-
lished it's new mill, has claims to fame
other than the possession of the great
est growth of cedar ever found in Mich
igan. Mr. F. X. Baker, the president of
the company, found there an old couple
whose record is believed to be without
a parallel in Michigan, If not in the
United States, and was let to secure the
exact dates in their life history by his
interest in the case. Charles LaFoun-
taine was born Nov /, 1909, near Mon
treal, and his wife in the same locality
on March Is of the same year. They
were married Feb IA, 1928, nearly ten
years before Victoria assembled the
throne, and on Valentines day this
year "round out" their SEVENTEEN year
of married life.
In 1880, after over half century OF
married life, they came to this country,
settling in Delta county. Up to two
years ago Mr.. LaFountaine continued
in steady employment, but they are
now living with the baby of the family,
an unmarried son as years of age. OF
their nine children all are living ex-
cept one who died at the age of So. Mr..
| and Mrs LaFountaine enter upon their
SEVENTEEN year in the best of health and
in full possession of all their faculties.
They hope to round OUT seventy-five
years of married life before either is
called to rest

A Slight Accident
Often Causes Severe Kidney Troublc-A
A Muslxegon Lady's Experience.


How often sudden accident, a slip or fall,
gives the back a twist and deranges the deli
cate fbers of the kidneys, which have their
duties to perform and must be in a condition
to perform them. They carry off the poison
Gus acids from the blood, and, if they get out
Of order and refuse to do this, the whole system
is affected by the poisonous uric acid carried
to all parts in the blood. So it is that slight
accidents, strain, fall, or little twist in
the back amounting to very little of itself
often results disastrously if neglected. Doan's
Kidney Pills are designed to restore the kid
neys to healthy action. That they do this is
easily proven by the statements of the public.
A well-known lady of Muskegon is Mrs.
Emily j. Andrus, whose comfortable home is
at Is f. Diana Street. She spoke of her ex-
perience as follows:
"Some time ago had terrible fall and it
affected me in the back and kidneys. Oh, how
it hurt me in through the back / got SO
lame and sore could hardly stir. suffered
everything and thought / would surely die /;
the pain was so great l could not walk. AT
my age ii was very hard to suffer so much. /
saw Doan's Kidney Pills advertised. wanted
to try them, as my kidney organism was
affected by the fall. A box was procured fNr
me mt Brundage's drug store, and belore / had
finished taking them all, felt easier in my
back. kept on taking them, using in all four
boxes and the result is that / am now feeling
all right. The pain in my back used to be SC
intense could not sleep, and often had TO use
hot applications to get ease. Now can rest
and sleep well. DOan's Kidney Pills have
been grand thing for me. When an article
possesses such merit as they do, it should be
recognized, and am glad to place myself on
record as one who has tried them and found
them to be as represented"
