AUGUST ELECTIONS.
Democratic Caucus Adopts First See
ton of Election Laws.

The Democratic caucus considered the
election laws at the session last night
The first section of the law was
adopted and the rest considered in a
cursory way. The first section provides
for holding two elections in 1900, one in
August for State officers and constiIu-
tional amendment and one in November
for President and Congressman.
On Friday night the caucus will re
sumo consideration of the bill and it is
expected that an early agreement will be
reached as to it's provisions and it will
be introduced for its passage.
After consideration of the election
some time was devoted a discussion of
the public printing bill. The latter will
be considered in caucus tonight and
some changes in it are probable.

Agent Wykes Superseded.

IL was with a feeling of no small re-
greet that the many Owosso friends of
Mr.. K. Wykes learned early in the week
that he had been superseded in his posi-
ton as station agent for the Grand
Trunk in this city. Mr.. Wykes has
been the company's representative in
Owosso for the past eleven years and
during that time has done much good
for his road in the close attention he has
given to both freight and passenger
business. Throughout his whole term
of service however his methods of
working for an increase of the com.
pany's business have always been such
as to retain the complete confidence
and respect of the entire community =.
Outside Of his official duties he has been
q valuable and public spirited citizen
in every way. MIR. Wykes has had sew
eral other positions offered him but has
not decided on any of these and may be
prevailed upon by his friends TO remain
In Owosso. 1t Is certainly to be hoped
that he can be induced to stay here.
The TINES has received many fsvors
from Mr.. Wykes In the past and wishes
him better position than the Owosso
one has been when he finally gets sat.

Water Colors by Fred c. Frieseke.

Four water colors painted by Fred C.
Frieseke, of this city, who has been
studying art in Europe for the last two
years, have been attracting no small
amount of attention in VanDusen's
window since Monday. They were re-
ceived by Mr.. Herman c. Frieseke d.
rect from his son in Paris. The subjects
are: "Old Church at Katwyk," .In-
terror of Dutch Cottage" among the
Trees" Leon de Belfour." The first
is one of the most picturesque old church
es on the continent and was purchased
few years ago by subscriptions among
artists who took that means of saving it
from being torn down on account of it's
aged and crumbling condition. The
interior of Dutch cottage is a quaint,
bomely little scene with rich coloring
showing an old Dutch house wife at
work with her old fashioned broom.
The Leon.de Balfour shows that famous
statute at the intersection of the five
Partisan streets which meet at its base.
1t is an early morning scene showing
the surroundings in gray mist. Mr..
Frieseke has demonstrated the merit of
his work in the exhibitions at different
meetings OF the new Salon and the Art
Association, receiving honorable men,
ton at the NEW Salon this year. The
measure of success he has already at
tanned is gratifying to his family and
many friends in Owosso who expect to
hear of still better work and more pro-
nounced triumphs form him in the
future which seems bright indeed for
him.

Oak Grove Farmers Club

Thursday. Oct. 10th, was the day for the
Oak Grove Farmers Club to meet with Mr..
and Mrs. Julius Eveleth, at their home in
Caledonia.
Nearly every family responded to the roll
call and the smiling and animated counter
ances voiced the sentiment, 1--WE are glad
to meet again."
After the usual opening exercises the first
business was the election of officers for the
next half year which resulted as follows:

delegates to attend the State Association of
Farmers Clubs, which will be held In
Lansing on the 18th and 18th of December,
1899.
Mrs. Bilhimer's paper on "Charity" was
next read and was listened to with atten-
ton. She said that 'while exercising char
ity we should stand for the right. True
charity would lead US to overlook the faults
or failings of Others"
A Strauch was called upon for paper
on "Can Woman attend to Public Duties
and Home Duties at the Same Time" He
did not write paper, bot thought the club
ought to know just where he stood on the
woman question:" which, summed up.
