KILLING HIS BROTHER.
Charge Lodged Against Jarec Cum
MINIS at Baldwin.


Baldwin, Mich, Aug. 14.-Later de.
velopments in the case of the death OF
Percy Cummins have lead TO the arrest
of his brother James on the charge OF
murder. The funeral of Percy Cum
minis was held Monday.
Since Sunday z sentiment has been
growing that young Cummins met foul
play. Tuesday morning neighhors OF
Cummins and members of the coro-
ner's jury came 10 Baldwin with the
information that more evidence
against James Cummins had been Sc.
cured. A man named Wright, who
lives near Stearns, on the road be-
tween Baldwin and the Cummins
place, and near the place where the
older Cummins alleges he released
Percy from the wheel, made affidavit
that on Saturday night at about the
time the two brothers are said to have
driven along, and while he was put
ting out his horse, he heard a rig drive
by, the occupants talking loudly.
Wright recognized James's voice and
heard the other person say: "Oh, oh,
oh, don't" Then all was still.
Another man named Demars says
that he heard the cry also, but was
too far away to hear what was said. 1t
was at this place that the billy was
found.
A second inquest was ordered by
Justice A. W. Gum, which was held
at the Catholic cemetery, where the
boy was buried. Drs. Sayles and Hey
sett of this place held postmortem
examination and found the left side of
the skull badly battered by a number
OF blows as if from some blunt instru-
ment. When asked IL they thought
that the injury had been cauzed by
striking against the spokes of the
wheel the physicians said they did
not. On complaint of Wright, a war
rant was issued for the arrest of
James Cummins. Sheriff Messenger
served the warrant, and the alleged
murderer is now in the county jcil at
this place.

scripture. But 1t has illuminated that
statement and given it meaning even

splendid bathing facilities which will
be provided at Crystal Lake. In the
summer open cars will leave Frankfort
every As minutes. The entire trip will

From a railroad standpoint it is also
quite important, having decided bear
ing upon the success of the vast schemes
Of improvement which the Ann Arbor
has under way.
People who have visited Frankfort

following, as it does, a picturesque and
beautiful route close to the shores of
the two lakes. 1t will also provide, of
course, more frequent and more rapid
service, and the ride in itself will be so
