Olmstead Thomson.

The home of Mr.. and Mrs. G. G.
Thompson was the scene of very pretty
wedding Wednesday evening The con-
tracing parties were Mr.. n. H. Olmstead
and Mrs. +. NJ Thompson, both of this
place. In the presence of about twenty
intimate friends and relatives, Rev.
M. d. Carrel pronounced the mystic
words. The bride was tastily clad in
her travelling dress. The room was
beautifully decorated with white and
pink cut flowers. After the congratu-
lations were passed light refreshments
were served and the happy couple left
for short trip through Northern Michi-
gan. The bride has a large circle of
friends in this place, having been a
resident for a number of years. The
groom holds highly responsible posi-
tion at the Alma Sanitarium and Justly
merits his large circle of friends both at
the institution and in the village. The
RECORD wishes to add its word of con-
graduation to those of the many.

for the people of our own country but
for the oppressed people of Cuba, and to
remember that it was not those who
went TO the front who suffered the most
at this time, but it was those who are
so near and dear TO every one Of us, the
wives, mothers and sweethearts who
were left at home He said it was an
imperative duty which compelled the
chief executive of the nation to issue
the proclamation to free Cuba and that
God would so direct him that he might
prove the third Moses of America. At
the conclusion of the address which was
both soul inspiring and patriotic and
delivered in a most mastery manner,
carrying the large audience with the
speaker through the entire discourse,
Supt Ely marched the children of the
Public School, escorted by the Light
Guards, onto the stage, and 400 of these
little voices swelled forth to heaven in
rendition of that national hymn America
Benediction was next pronounced,
after which the parade was formed on

weeks issue Of the RECORD and marched
TO the cemetery, where detail from
the Post proceeded to decorate the graves
of those who had gone to their last rest
ing place on earth. The College Male
Quartet rendered several selections and
the CT. A. r. memorial ritual service
was read, after which all returned to
their several homes feeling that all that
could be done TO commemorate our sol
dier dead had been accomplished.
Never has there been a Memorial Day
where patriotism has run as rife as was
evidenced by the display of flags and
bunting and the window decorations of
our business houses. 1t was convincing
TO any one that the American people as
a whole are the most liberty loving and
patriotic people of any nation on earth.

ME MORTAL DAY.
A Glorious Day in Which to Honor our
Soldier Dead.

Contrary to the usual condition of the
weather on May 30, Monday was day
to delight the soul of any person. The
sun rose bright and clear in the morning,
and although somewhat cool it soon
warmed up so that the shade was a well
come retreat.
In the forenoon several members of
VIM. Meyer Post, accompanied by
marshal music, proceeded to the Wright
cemetery in Pine River, where the graves
of those soldier heroes whose bodies
have been laid at rest, were decorated
with the flowers taken there for that
purpose. The services here were III
charge of the children of the Wright
School district who, under the direction
of Miss Nevins, their teacher, gave a
very neat program. The committe then
returned to Alma.
At one o'clock the people began TO
assemble in the opera house until when
the Grand Army boys marched in at
two o'clock the house was crowded full.
The program opened with a selection
by the College Male Quartet, and prayer
by Rev NJ. d. Carrel. After another
selection by the quartet the General
Orders from the Michigan headquarters,
G. A. r. were read and the beautiful
| and impressive ritualistic service Of the
Grand Army of the Republic was rem
| dered. The next on the program was a
reading by Raymond Bangs, who i'll a
mastery manner, presented Lincoln 5
| Memorial address on the battle scare d
| field of Gettysburg. After a selection
by the A. f. ID. Double Quartet, J. w.
| Holmes, in few appropriate words,
introduced the speaker, Rev. f. NJ.
McClintock of Shepherd who said in
part: He was glad the soldier boys Of
81 were still on the march although
some of them did not step quite as firm
and prompt as th' = did in the days
gone by. The spirit of liberty was
planted in the hearts of the American
people by the Pilgrim Fathers who
landed at Plymouth Rock, Mass, and
that the God of liberty has always led
the people of America. He alluded to
the father of our country, George Wash
ington as that American of Americans,
who feared God and with that fear in
his heart was enabled by his help to
conquer the oppressors of our country.
He eulogized our martyred President
Lincoln by alluding to him as the second
Moses of the American people. He fur
ther said that never was such a magnif.
cent army turned loose as that engaged
in the Civil War, and never was such a
peaceful lot of men as those who re.
turned when the war was over. They
passed through the greatest war ever
known and came out the best las a whole
of any army in the history OF
the world He next spoke of the present
conflict we were engaged in and that
now the boys of our time had gone forth
on land and sea to fight for liberty, not

The 10000 Men stopped on the Bor-

1t is beginning to be realized that
there are danger points in the Klon-
dixie situation. $780,
The Canadians are .notoriously short
sighted and provincial Should the
clamor. of disgruntled merchants lead
the Dominion government TO some
such monumental folly as closing the
Skaguay passes in an effort ito bring
the United States to it's knees" trou-
BILE would surely follow. While the
Washington authorities might act
with forbearance 10000 impatient
American miners stopped on the bord-
er OF their promised land could not be
expected to. They would go through
anyhow and let consequences take care
OF themselves.
The incident on the shores of Lake
Bennett few weeks ago, when COM
pany of American miners raised the
Stars and Stripes and the Canadian po-
lice pulled them down. shows the tenn
per OF the gold seekers.
Dawson City promises to be one of
the most intensely American towns on

is hoped here that the Canadian gov

made by the British Columbians and
undertake suck high handed proceed

an act. especially as the exact bounda-
~ is still undetermined would lead to
very Strained relations with Great
Britain,
The cause OF the excitement among
the Canadian boards of trade over "ob-
noxious" Alaskan customs regulations
is not known at the Treasury Depart
ment. No word has been heard there
from the Canadian officials on the sub
tect.
Assistant Secretary of the Treasury
Howell, said today that the new Alas

completed in few days remove the
cause of the Canadian protest The
rule has been that Canadia merchants
were obliged TO pay $6 pst day to

Under the new regulations Canadians

BEHEADED BY A HAWSER
Horrible Death of an Engineer in

Caught i'm the Coils of a Hosting
pparatus-His Bones Broken
and Head Twisted Off.

Philadelpnia, Jan. 27.-With his head
severed by huge hawser as If by a gull
Iotine or saber's stroke, the dead body of
Thomas Engard, engineer OF hoiSting
derrick engine, was found by fellow work
men yesterday afternoon at Hinman's Ship
yard wharf, foot OF Warren street, Kenslng-
ton. His body had been caught in the
anaconda like embrace OF half a dozen

The ghastly discovery was made by Henry

Engard had been employed for a number

tom, however, while tine engine was in

drum by placing one foot against il to pre-

that his foot was caught and his body
drawn in, and when the coils of the wind
ing rope reached his neck the head was
literally wrung off.
The pressure Of the rope coils caused
the bIoo'I from his body TO squirt several feet
distant, until every droE Of the life fluid
was seemingly exhausted.
When his body was finally releasedif was
found that almost every bone in it was

IYNCHING A NEGRO WOMAN.
She CIuhbed n Young Mans Head
Into n Pulp.

Memphis. Tenn. Jan. PA negro
woman, whose crime was the clubbing
of young white mans head into
pulp, has been lynched by mob of the
young mans relatives and friends near
Natehez, Miss. The vengeance was of
the most summary character the wo-
man being shot to death and her body
left in the swamp in which she had
taken refuge.
This outbreak Of mob violence is the
sequel TO a sensational tragedy enacted
in the vicinity yesterday. During the
day the father of Charles Beard was
severely beaten by three negroes, who
were afterward corralled in a house
by the father and son, the latter being
left to prevent their escape while the
father went to procure officers to ar
rest them.
When the father had gone the soli-
tary guard was shot from within the
house and fatally wounded. While ly-
ing on the ground he got a chance at
the negroes and killed two of them with
a shot gun. ThareUpon the female in
the party dubbed his head almost to a
jelly and he was found dying by the
father upon his return.
The organization of indignant neigh
bors and the lynching as described fol-
lowed
