The Reed City Democrat says: MRS.
Catharine f. Clark of Evart, recently of
Van Buren county, procured warrant
and placed it in the hands of Deputy
Sheriff Ralph for the arrest of her hus-
band, A. M. Clark of Pine Grove Mills,
Van Buren county, charging him with
taking away pair of horses belonging
to her. The officer returned with Clark
January 2 and lodged him Jail until Sat
urday, when hearing was held before a
justice. 1t was shown that the horses
were the husbands property, and he was
released from custody. He returned
home Saturday afternoon"

ing to Sl04.06.
The consolidation of the Central and
Kibbie telephone interests in Paw Paw,
which has long been talked of, is now an
accomplished fact. All the local phones
of both lines are now connected with the
old Central exchange. This is not a
consolid ion of the companies, but
merely OF their Paw Paw business. Just
what arrangements will be made for use
of country phones on the Kibbie line, we
are not informed. For the advantage of
the local exchange and of the farmers
tributary to Paw Paw as well, it would
be desirable to give them the full benefit
of the Paw Paw service. The consoli-
dation, is, we believe, a good move for
the companies and the patrons.
A Paw Paw young man admires Kal-
amazoo young lady mot strange nor
unprecedented circumstance, by the way
and went to Celeryville the other day,
one errand being to make call on her.
She expected him, and was so anxious
about the meeting that, instead of wait
ing at her home, she went to business
place where she was well acquainted
down town, and where she knew he had
a business appointment. OF course, he
was asanxious as she and, putting pleasure
before business, went at once to her
home, and his face fell when he found
she was not there. Then he went to
keep his business appointment, and was
soon deeply engaged in a talk with the
proprietor, the embarrassment of his
lady friend becoming greater each minute.
At length she could endure it no longer
and, arising with all the offended dignity
she could command, coldly remarked,
Tell Mr.. D / called to meet him,
and am disappointed in not doing so, but
cannot wait longer!" Then for the first
time the Paw Paw young man noticed
her presence and, awkwardly raising six
feet of abashed humanity from his chair,
made most humble and pfofuse apologies,
which were of course accepted 1t is
rumored everything is now so amicably
understood that the pilgrimages\ from
Paw Paw to Kalamazoo are likely ep be
of frequent recurrence.

Mr.. D. A. Tompkins, of this State,
who is such an enthusiastic advocate
of cotton mills, has a strong and
equally enthusiastic supporter in Mr.
W S. Whitam. of Georgia. who
holds that there is no reason why the
South should not get from SIS to
SlOO bale for cotton instead of $50.
he is man whose business reputa-
ton stands pretty we'll in his State,
where he is president of ~ banks.
Speaking of cotton mills, he says:
Labor is plentiful and cheap in
Georgia The success OF Georgia
cotton mills has proven that southern
men know how to run them. From
personal experience l know that cot
ton mills of from 5000 to 10000
spindIes pay much better dividends
than mills of larger size As many
years ago the West attracted the
attention of capitalists and business
mep, so now the eyes Of this claes
are turned to the South | can name
half a dozen cotton mills in this State
Georgia. having from 1000 to 10,
900 spindles, which net earnings Of
frcr1 rs to 90 per cent during the
pas: II months am now organic
ing three new cotton mills. +"
There may be some difference OF
opinion as to whether small mills pay
better tbao large mills, but whether
they do or not, both pay very well,
and we'll enough to encourage the
establishment of many more both
large and small Whatever may be
TAD for large mills, there ie much to
be said for small mills which present
many advantages which should be
taken into consideration. especially
in section where capital is limited,
and most of the dependence must De
put upon home capital
Suppose that one in proportion to
investment pays the investors as
we'll as the other, two small mills are
better in our opinion than one hav
ing the capacity of the two. because
the two make two markets for cotton
to the one the larger makes dis!rio
ute the industry better, bring profit
to more localities, give labor better
chance by giving employment to
many in their localities, putting more
money in circulation. creating more
markets for what the farmers pro
duce, thus bene6tting them aud en-
couraging diversified farming and
thrift on the farm. And in addition
to this it is easier to establish small
mills on the cooperative plan than it
is large ones As far as the general
prosperity is concerned the more the
mills are distributed the better, how
ever much they may be centered at
localities presenting abundant power
and other advantages Wilmington

About { O'Clock the doctor and Nlr-

started for the scene of the White Cross
meetings.
The Rectangle was the most notori-
Gus district in all Raymond 1t was In
the territory close b. the great railroad
shops and the packing houses. The SUM
and tenement district of Raymond con-
gested its most wretched elements about
the Rectangle This was barren field
used in the summer by circus COM
panies and wandering showmen. 1t
was shut in by rows of saloons. gam
bling hells and cheap. dirty boarding
and lodging houses.
The First church of Raymond had
never touched the Rectangle problem.
1t was too dirty. too coarse. too sinful.
too awful. for close contact. Let US be
honest There had been an attempt to
cleanse this sore spot by sending down
an occasional committee of singers, OF
Sunday school teachers or gospel Wis
itors from various churches. but the
church of Raymond as an Institution
had never really done anything to make
the Rectangle any less stronghold OF
the devil as the years went by.
Into this heart of the coarse part OF
the sin of Raymond the travelling evan
eelist and his brave little wife had
pitched a good sized tent and begun
meetings. 1t was the spring of the year
and the evenings We're beginning to be
pleasant The evanselists had asked for
the help of Christian people and had
received more than the usual amount
of encouragement but they felt q great
need OF more and better music. During

SECOND DAYS PRACTICE.
Players Got Down to Real Hard
Work

The Scranton base bali players as
sembled at the Athletic park ycstcr-
day afternoon for their second prac-
tice of the season The men were in
good condition, although a little lame
from Mondays work. They were more
spirited in yesterdays practice than
they We're in Monuay's. Their efforts
both at the bat and in the field were
much improved from their previous
practice and they used more care in
judgment.
StultZ. who was playing at short,
was weak and showed poor judg
mcnt several times He was wild
and not in as good condition
as during Mondays practice. 1t is
fair TO StutZ to say he was play
ing out of position. Wheeler was
somewhat short in base throwing. Gill
bert was again in left field, and showed
up well. Egan and .hon appear to
~ two Of our heaviest batsmen, Hod-
son and Risleys worked we'll in the
box although the work was light.
Phackera and Doherty, who were eX-
pected in this city Monday evening,
did not arrive. Manager Swift left
for Philadelphia Monday evening to
be present at the schedule meeting,
which was to convene at Hotel Han
over at noon yesterday. They have
had some trouble in arranging th;s
schedule, and it is hoped that all diff
ficulties will be settled at this meet
ing.
Today's practice is looked forward
to for harder work, both in the field
and at the bat. The ground yesterday
was still heavy, but a few warm days
like yesterday will place it in good
condition.
There were about one hundred
spectators at the practice yester-
| day. \ much larger crowd is looked
| for today. Manager Swift, in speak
ing Of the preliminary games. said he
wanted to arrange with Wyoming sem
mary for the opening game. This.
| however is not certain.
