The meetings conducted by the
evangelist, Rev. H. Murey. are held
In the M. e. Church, this week.
They are not as largely attended as
could be desired. but it is hoped will

and eloquent speaker, devoid of SEN
sation, but earnest and practical
frankie, a four year old son of
Mrs Goupell, swallowed safety pin
one day last week, which lodged in
the trachea. Its location was found
by DR.. Insley by the aid of the Xrays.
He sent for DR.. Gregg. of Standish,
and performed the operation of ira
cheotomy and removed the pin, last
Friday. The little fellow is getting
along nicely at this writing, Monday.
We are informed that the saloons
in Frederic got to running nights
and Sundays so openly that the citi-
zens rebelled, aud Justice Brown
backed by the citizens, notified them
that the law must be obeyed, and
now every saloon is closed at night
and Sundays and the screens removed,
without any. prosecution or trouble.
There is no difficulty in having a
proper observance Of the law, If IL is
demanded by the community. The
business Is carried on for the money
there is In 1t and II one Is allowed to
override the law in regard to hours.
the Others feel that they must do so
or loose their trade, but IL it is known
that prosecution would follow a vio-
lation of the law there would be no
trouble.

wife Of Alexander @. Wilcox, aged
SO years. Our people were startled
at the sudden ending of this life.
Though she had been partly invalid
for some time, and but recently re

critical condition. a She had attended
TO her usual household work during
the day and had dressed for a visit
In the village in the evening, but ON
going 70 the carriage complained Of

munity. The funeral at the M. e.
church was largely attended, the
w. r. G. and Ladies of the G. A. r.
attending In body.
Here is synopsis of the new dog
law. At tho first regular meeting Of
the township board after the first
Monday In April, there shall be ap-
pointed dog warden who shall col
lect the dog tax. Upon payment Of
the tax the warden furnishes the
owner with a metal label which must
be attached to the collar of the dog
for which the tax was paid. Dogs
not provided with the Wardens label
are liable TO be killed at any time by
the officer or his deputies, for which
the warden shall receive one dollar
for each dog SO killed. A bond In
the sum OF $500 is required of the
warden. The new law will probably
have a tendency. to increase the
