Thomas w. Lawson, owner of the
Independence, is something of a fatal
list. The toss of coin has deter
mined for him more than one stock
transaction. He believes that what
ever befalls after man has done his
best is part of a grand scheme of the
total of human events. He believes
in the good luck of certain numerals.
The figure or it's multiples appear
in all his affairs. His Office is at 33
State street, Boston. His telephones
are SO and 1899, respectively. His
yacht's first sailing test took place
on the Sd of June. He wears watch
chain consisting of 1888 gold beads.

Michigan Summer Resort Suffers Loss
to Extent of $4,000.

Michigan Summer Resort Suffers Loss
to Extent of $4,000.
Petoskey, Mich, Aug. %. = Fire
started at 1 o'clock this morning in
J. w. Acheson's big bakery restaurant
at Harbor Springs, the county seat of
this county, five miles from here, and
rapidly swept through the business
portion of the city, causing a loss APP
rroximating $53,O00 about three
fourths insured The stores and stock
Of A. N. Smith grocer; Bert Smith,
restaurateur; W. F. Allerton, saloon,
were entirely destroyed. Residence
fats above the stores were occupied by
resorters, who escaped with their lives,
losing practically all their effects.
There were several narrow escapes.
but no lives were lost or serious in
juries reported.
Petoskey's fire department respond
ed promptly on a special train and
saved the departm store of Foster
& Burke, worth $4,000, which was
only partially damaged and the dry
goods house of Ben Segal, on the other
side.
It is the most disastrous fire in the
history of Harbor Springs and, COM
ing when the city is full of resorters,
it is specially unfortunate.

ley at Canton.
Canton, O., Aug. 23.-Secretary OF
State John Hay has reached Canton to
confer with the president on a number
of matters demanding consideration in
the state department. He had planned
to complete his work here in time to
take the 1875 Pennsylvania train for
the east, and, unless another route can
be found that will permit him to catch
the same Washington train at Pitts
burg, he will leave at that time. While
the conditions existing in Colombia
and Venezuela were doubtless reviewed
by the president and secretary, it is
understood that there is not in the
conditions anything at present calling
for action other than has alreay been
taken

Prof Unna, Hamburg, Germany, Eu.
ropean authority on skin diseases, says
that dandruff is as contagious as any
other nalevolent disease, and that one
common source of the spread Of dan
druff is the use of the same hair brush
by different persons. The way to avoid
catching dandruff or any other disease
from another's brush, is to insist on the
use of Newbros Herpicide. 1t not only
kills the dandruff germ, but it is also
an antiseptic that will prevent the catch
ing Of any disease whatever through con-
tagion Of anothers brush.

Member of Twelfth Regiment at Williams.
port Ordered to be Discharged
Harry II. Lilley, a private in Com
pany G. Twelfth regiment, ofWilliams-
port, is alleged to have said, while on
duty at the station on the day President
McKinley's remains passed through
that city, that he would not take off
his hat to any man." The remarks
attributed to him were reported to his
captain and. he was ordered to turn in
all State property and be discharged.
Private Lilley declares that the r
mark of disrespect attributed to him is
without the slightest foundation. He
claims that he never used such words
or any others of a similar nature while
the train was in the city. He said that
he had the greatest respect for the
memory of President Mckinley. The
story, he says, has hurt him very
much. He wanted to go with the
company to Athletic park on Tuesday
night, but he was refused this privii-
cge; socially it has injured him, and his
sweetheart, he says, will not permit
his presence at her fome until he has
cleared himself, and Friday the man by
whom he is employed told him to lay
Off and make an effort to straighten
out the trouble.

saws: 1--WE have received communi-

relates circumstances that have oc-
Cured in our town and remarks made
about the assassination of President
Mckinley that we can scarcely credit.
If it be true that one old miserahle fool
on Seventh street made the remark
that "the d--s-of a b
ought to have been shot" he should
have been tarred and feathered and be
ridden on rail. If this remark had
been made in our presnce, something
would have dropped. But then, this
old cur knows no better. Probably he
should be pitied for his ignorance. But
however this may be, if it he true what
is said Of him, he is unfit to mingle in
decent society and should be stunned
as rattlesnake. If he lived in New
Mexico, the poor old wretch would be-
fore this be dangling from lamp post
or the limb Of tree But such dispO-
sition of him would not be endorsed in
this community, only good dose of
tar and feathers and a rail-"
