BARELY RESCUED.
NARROW ESCAPE o. MRS
CHARLES M. HINES.
A Thrilling Story of a Fire ard
Rescue Of 4 Mother and Infant
Only Few Hours Old.

On Wednesday afternoon about
. o'clock the dwelling of Mr. G. NJ.
Hines. who lives four miles from
town towards the lower bridge,
was completely destroyed by fire.
His wi!e and a four Eour-o!d
baby were barely saved by john
Hines, his brother, who happened
to be passing al the tine and saw
the fire.
Mr.. Charles Hines had just lett
the house for 4 walk i'll the fields,
his wife bclng ssiceP. Some little
matters requiring his attention
drew him farther from the house
than he intended 10 go, his wife
being alone tor the time.
Evidently the house haG been
on fire at the time he lett it, for lie
had not been gone long before his
brother passing saw the flames
and rushed in to assist lie had
barely time to get into tie room
where tie mother and the newly
born infant were sleeping, wrap
them in the bedding and escape
The rest of the house was all in
flames.
The house was a good six room
building, valued at 800, be-
lieved no. TO have been insured.
The loss of the house and furni-
ture falls heavily on Mr.. Hines,
but he is so thankful for The saw
Ing Of his vile and baby that he
has not considered the other losses.
Mr.. Hines has been married twice,
the present vile being the bride
of year.

Stand up and be Counted.

Now that the stockholders Of the Citi-
zens Telephone Co have pooled their
stock in the hands of three trustees tor a
period of five years, which precludes the
possibility of the plant being gobbled
up by the Bell Telephone Co., and pre-
serves the integrity of the institution for
the period named, it is III order for the
people of Grand Rapids 10 stand up and
be counted, so far as their attitude to-
ward the local telephone movement Is
concerned. Hundreds of business men
have had no relations whatever with
the Bell Co since the Citizens Co came
into the field When such institutions
as the Berkey x Gay Furniture 90,
Musselman Grocer 90, Grand Rapids
Savings Bank and State Bank of Mich
igan can throw out the Bell phone and
never feel the effects of it in a business
way, there is no reason why any bust
ness house or private residence in
Grand Rapids should not pursue the
same course. In fact, the repeated as
saults of the Bell Co. on the local un-
dertaking indecent, underhanded and
infamous to a degree never before wit
messed in this community are so fre-
quent and so furious that the retention
of the Bell system in this city has re-
solved itself into a question of citizen
ship. No man who believes in the pol
icy of encouraging local enterprise and
assisting in the growth and prosperity
of the community can tolerate iii his
| residence or place of business an article
which represents Bell tactics without
| tacity admitting that ne is a traitor TO
the town that while he may prate of
his patriotism toward the city Of his
adoption and point to his contributions
in support of local charities and other
local interests, he IS nevertheless, cast.
ing the weight Of his influence with a
foreign corporation which has done, and
is continually doing, all it can IN every
possible way, to injure local institution
which was inaugurated by four hundred
public spirited citizens for the purpose
of wrestling the community from the
clutches of one of the most grasping
monopolies which ever cursed the cOun-
| try.
| The time has now come for the people
of Grand Rapids to stand up and be
counted, to the end that the community
may know who are citizens in reality as
we'll as name and who are citizens In

Pine River Farmers Club.

The first meeting in February was
held at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. l..
Behler. The program was as follows
Opening song by the club; prayer by
Mr. Geo. Acher; good music sung by
Misses Behler and Acher; roll call, re-
sponded to by quotations; secretary s
report.
Mr. John Henry read selection on
the savages of North America showing
the many good traits in their character.
Mrs. Fisher read selection on female
supremacy which was very good. Mrs.
Behler then favored the club with fine
solo. Last of program was an original
poem by MIR. H. McFarlin.
In regard to sugar beet raising the
opinion seemed to be that last season
was an unfavorable one, yet it compared
favorably with other crops; wheat was a
failure.
John Behler stated that he had said
he would raise no more sugar beets, but
when he came TO finish up his crop he
thought better of it and would put in as
many acres this year as last.
Mr Behler liked shredding corn fod-
der If the corn was ripe when cut and
dry when shredded it would keep.
On tax commission the house seemed
about equally divided, while all thought
it but Just that all property should pay
a certain per cent. OH its full value
Some thought it a scheme TO raise the
farmers taxes and lessen the other fel.
lows.
The whole time was enjoyable and

held at the residence of John Berriey

Napoleon on Drunkenness.

Napoleon Bonaparte will appear in the
March Century in new role-that of a
temperance advocate. In the second in
stallment of Dr. O'Mebra's hitherto un-
published Talk with Napoleon" at ST.
Helena,i is recorded that having pain
i'll his side, the ex Emperor asked his ply
sician 10 show him where his liver was
situated and the latter in some remarks
on the causes of inflammation of that or.
gan, mentioned intoxication as one Of
them. Thereupon Napoleon remarked :
Then ought not to have it, as |
never was drunk but once i'll my life;
and that was twenty. years ago, at
Nice. i drank three bottles of Bur
gundy, and was complete drunk. .,
