The Epworth League excursion to

be big one If drawing attractions
count for anything. 1t so happens
that Gen. Alger will arrive at Toledo
on that day about $3.50 p. m. from
Washington. He will be met by a
huge delegation from Michigan and
given royal reception by Michigan
and Toledo people.
The boats running between Toledo
and Pressure Isle lin Lake Erie) will
receive a large patronage, the trip be-
ing a delightful one and enhanced by
there being band on boat. Lake
Erie Park also offers long list Of ex-
ira attractions.
The trip around the resident portion

Oak Grove Farmers Club.

The Oak Grove Farmers Club was
entertained by Mr. and Mrs. j. r. Rey-
nolds. Tuesday afternoon, July goth.
The day was fine, the attendance large,
and number of visitors were also
present.
After the usual opening exercises
VIM. Cole was called upon for a report
of the county farmers club which met
on the 9Th inst in Corunna. The coun-
ty club had arranged for a county farm
ers club picnic to be held in Caledonia
Park. August IS, to begin al 10 o'clock.
The Oak Grove club is to furnish pa
per, music, and recitation. BY the
courtesy of A. L. Chandler, his paper
on The Initiative and Referendum"
was read by Geo. Winnie. The paper
was highly appreciated and warmly dis
cussed. VIM. Cole was amazed that
women should be so totally Indifferent
to the great question, for it is through
the initiative and referendum that we
may get woman suffrage or any other
reform. He believes that only by wo-
man suffrage shall we be able to sweep
the American saloon out of existence
He does not believe that mothers duties
end with rocking the cradle and singing
lullaby songs Rev. Mott was called
upon and gave very interesting and
instructive talk on the subject in hand.
He heartily endorsed the sentiment ex-
pressed by Mr.. Cole. Next came BIZ
ography of Kipling by Miss Hope Win
ME.
Mrs. j. Bilhimer's paper on, "Home
Influence" was full of bright thoughts
and happy suggestions. The law OF
love should rule in the home. The
children should be petted and put to
bed with smiling faces. Make home
soon, they will be gone from the home
nest. If the law Of love should reign in
every home, drunkenness and profanity
would disappear. =.
The question, care parents RESPONSE
bel for their children's intemperance,
called out q lively discussion. Some
believe it almost impossible to keep a
Young man who had inherited a love
for drink from becoming drunkard.
Rev. Mott said heredity and environ
ment were powerful features in our
lives, but blythe help of Almighty God,
and by following, after the teaching of
His word, by which we understand, the
Rev. gentleman to mean to put away |
the saloon, we may hope to see genera
ton of sober men and women.
The program was interspersed with
music. both vocal and instrumental. |
Miss Mary Wrigley, of Gait, Ont, fav-
ored the company with a song and an |
instrumental solo. Miss Hope Winnie |
and Mrs. VIM Strauch also favored the
audience with instrumental solos, Mrs.
Winnie and Mr.. Wrigley gave vocal
duet.
The next Meeting is to be held with
Mrs. Wicking, on the Gath of August.

Attorney General Oren on Henry Bar
trem's Claim.

trem's Claim.
Attorney General Oren has furnished
the state board of auditors with an i'm
portant opinion in regard to several
claims against the state, for which the
legislature passed relief bills. The
claim of Henry Bartrem, of this city, is
affected by the decision. In referring
to claims of members of the national
guard who were injured previous to the
time of enlistment in the volunteer
service. the attorney general says
1t is undoubtedly true that IN most of
the cases the injuries received we're of a
purely accidental nature, or were due
to no fault or negligence upon which an
action at law could be based were the
be sued. Such being the case it is said
the compensation from the state would
be in the nature of gratuity In gen.
eral it is not in the power of the legis-
lature to grant gratuities or to sanction
the expenditure of public monies where
there is no return of public benefit.
There are exceptions based upon pub
lie policy, and Judge Cooley is quoted
by the attorney general upon this SUBJ
ject. The attorney general sums up the
duties of the board by saying that If the
claims are based upon the fault of the
state or its agents, then the board
should proceed as court to adjudicate
and settle the claims. On the other
hand it is said:
ut may be that your board may as.
certain in some instances in investigat-
ing the facts that there may have been
fault or negligence on the part of the
claimant that initiates against his
equities. You are constituted as Judges
as to all such matters within the terms
prescribed in these resolutions and the
scope of your investigations is indicat-
cd by these suggestions. On the main
proposition, namely, the constitutional
fly of these soldier resolutions, after a
careful investigation | would state that
in my opinion the legislature had au-
thority to pass them"
Certain of the resolutions which
failed to receive two-thirds vote in the
house are on q different basis The
resolutions for the relief of Fred l..
Waite and John H Bartrem belong to
this class. The attorney general says
that he doubts whether these resolutions
were legally enacted. They are, in
effect bills Appropriating money, and
it is suggested that by refusal of the
board to allow claims OF this class the
matter could be brought to speedy |
test, and an opinion be secured from !
the Supreme Court which would clear
ly define the powers and limitations of |
the Legislature and board of auditors in |
respect TO claims of general character. |
There is evidently, however, an error |
in the attorney generals opinion for a
reference to the House Journal, page
767, shows that the Bartrem measure
passed the house without dissenting
vote while ~ votes were recorded
for it. l

THE ADMIRAL DEWEY ROSE.
POpuIar-The Beautiful Lib
erty Rose.

OF the many things named for Admir-
nj Dewey since the victory at Manila
it is probable that none is more worthy
of the distinction than the new rose
which has lately appeared. 1t is of q
light tea shade and is very fragrant.
Its principal characteristic, and the one
which has enhanced it's value In the
eyes of florists, is its lasting quality.
An Admiral Dewey rose will retain Its
freshness for as long as ten days. The
rose has been in the market for little
over three months, but the supply is yet
very scarce. 1t is grown by n florist at
Bayside, L. l., who, 1t is said, paid $751;
0Co for the original plant. The rose In
some respects closely resembles the
bridesmaid rose, although of a much
richer color.
Another new rose on the market Is
the Liberty. tits an importation from
England, $4,000 being paid for six
plants by florist, who SOW chance for
speculation. Although no Liberty
roses will be sold till next year, those
already exhibited have won the admira-
N'OAi VI hOiio'nb many VI NhOHh dIc VI
the opinion that it is the finest rose on
the American market It's claim for
such distinction is in it's color, which
Is genuine ruby red. Every rose
being almost an exact match In color of
the finest gem. No other rose ap-
proaches 1t in this respect, it is said.
In size the Liberty rose compares with
the bridesmaid and has heavy thick
stem:. One of the largest florists on
Broadway recently exhibited few Lib
erty roses In his window, in another
part of which were some of the famous
Lawson pinks. The exhibition drew an
enormous crowd, but the roses appar-
emily came in for greater share of ad-
miration. 1t will be some time, it is
said, before many can be purchased,
as only 500 roses will be propagated
next season.
The two roses, the Admiral Dewey
and the Liberty, florists say, are the
finest yet produced in this country.

rREED BY A PACK OF WOLVES.
south Dakota Farmer Has 1'hriIiIng
Adveature In the early
Morning.

James Adams, who lives near the Mis-
souri, river in Clay county, S. D., has had
an exciting adventure with gray wolves.
Until quite recently these fierce animals
have been content to remain west of
the river, where settlement Is more
sparse, but many of them have now
found their way to tho east side Of the
stream, where they prey principally
upon chickens and sheep. Adams has
traps set for the animals and has
caught numbre this winter. Before
sunrise few mornings ago he made
the customary rounds of his traps, and
in one of them he found huge gray
wolf Not being armed, he hunted
about for club with which to slay the
animal. While thus engaged, the en-
trapped wolf set up peculiarly wall
ing howl, and b1fore Adams realized
his peril he was surrounded by 13 gray
wolves, whose swapping jaws and evi.
dent intention to spring upon him and
tear him to fragments caused the trap
per's hair assumed perpendicular po'
sition.
He, however, put on bold front, and
by steadily eyeing the fierce and fam
ishing brutes kept them at bay while
he moved slowly and cautiously toward
the nearest tree, which he speedily
climbed. The wolves, apparently real
izing that their expected prey had
escaped them, ran frantically around
the base of the tree in which the fugi-
tive was imprisoned, meanwhile howl
ing and exhibiting their teeth in their
impotent fury. The air was frosty and
the frigid wind chilled Adams TO the
marrow, but not until the sunhad risen
some distance above the horizon did the
animals leave the tree and skulk away
to the shadows of the surrounding will
lows. When he believed it was safe to
do so Adams descended the tree in
badly chilled condition. After going
home and warming himself he took his
Winchester rifle and repaired to the
scene of his adventure, where he soon
dispatched the entrapped wolf. No
more of the animals were to be seen

ALL CUT UP OVER 1T.
British Still Annoyed by Successful
American Competition.
Awarding of the Atbara bridge Com
tract TO Philadelphia Firm
Causes Deep Concern In
British Induntrial WOpld.

Americas successful competition In
heindustrial market, where she is beat
ing the Britishers on their own ground
is undoubtedly causing deep concern
aud heartburnings in British engineer
ing circles. The acrimonious protests
of English firms respecting the award
ing of the Atbara bridge contract to q
Philadelphia firm brought out clearly
this feeling and the attempts to explain
Americas success by glut of work in
England do not harmonize with the
complaints from English firms who
have not received orders which have
been sent to America. AS the London
St. James Gazette puts IL:
IF the British manufacturers have so
much work that they cannot accept
contracts they are to be congratulated.
But, in that case, it is difficult to see
why they are complaining"
The fact is that industrial circles in
England recognize that these contracts
mean more than mere evanescent COM
petition, as, in the case of American
engines, the railroad authorities in
est opinion of American work. This is
borne out by the statement of Manager
Snel, of the locomotive department of
the Great Northern Railway, which re-
Gently ordered engines from America.
He said:
apart from the fact that American
builders nre able to make more speedy
delivery than the English, there is no
doubt whatever that American engines
are of the highest excellence and that
their present features and improve
ments are of such utility as to attract
the custom of English companies"
The Daily Mail, taking up the ques-
tion, urges a system of profit sharing,
with the introduction of the newest and
best machinery, as the method where
Dy America can be fought and worst.
ed" though the paper adds:
"We must own that the nation is in
some degree suffering from lack of
strenuousness both in employers and
employed"
The secretary of the engineers socie-
ty said:
1--WE certainly regret the transfer
renee of work essentially belonging to
our market and it would be affectation
TO deny there is indignation and much
comment on the state of affairs. We
hope it will prove only temporary trans.
terrence; but, you know the danger"

DOGS BARRED FROM ENGLAND.
Regulations Tourists and Others
Must Conform to-EROrt to Pre-
vent Spread of Rabies.

People who are contemplating trip
abroad this summer, and who wish to
travel with dogs, will be interested to
know that the importation of dogs into
Great Britain without a license is for
hidden. Application for license must
be made to the secretary of the board
OF agriculture, 4 Whitehall place, Lon
don, 8. W., in time to permit the board
to inquire into the circumstances of the
application, ETC., before the embarka-
ton of the dog takes place. Dogs will
be detained for six months under su-
pervision of the authorities, on some
suitable private premises specified by
the owners. If the conditions imposed
are properly carried out the board will
consider applications, accompanied by
the certificates of veterinary surgeons,
that the dogs are not suspected of rab.
les, for their release after 90 days. Dogs
whose antecedents are unknown will be
subjected to longer period of deten-
ton.
In exceptional cases, the board will
entertain applications made by tele-
gram, on condition that full descrip-
toiH of the dog be given and the place
in which he is to be detained specified.
For the convenience of persons pass
ing through Great Britain, the board in
special cases will authorize the landing
of dogs which are to be exported In
few days. In making applications for
such license the ports, names of the yes
sells, and dates of arrival and departure
must be specified, and the address of
some suitable place where the dog
can be detained during the period it
remains in Great Britain, which must
not exceed ten days.
