Harley Morrey.

Harley Morrey died in Alma last Fri
day after a lingering illness of consump.
ton for two years. The disease attacked
him in peculiar manner, although
none the less fatal. He hurt his arm
at the elbow about five years ago,
and although the wound healed it
seemed to bother him somewhat and
finally extended TO the whole arm. He
went to Ann Arbor and was examined
by the physicians there and then he was
told that he had consumption of the
joint OF his arm. After coming home
the disease spread to his lungs and he
gradually wasted away until death re.
lieved his sufferings. He was born in
Alma 20 years ago. The funeral was
held from the Adventist church Sunday,
Milo ID. Worfie of Saginaw officiating,
and the remains were inferred in River.
side cemetery.

The Proposed Fish Law

Several have asked the question
What about the proposed new iish law
recently introduced in the state legisla-
sure. "
The Michigan Game and Fish League
have asked the legislature 10 enact a
law requiring license fee OF 81 from
ALL residents of Michigan for fishing in
any Of the waters of the state in any
manner
Now isn't that q bright idea That
Is protection with a vengeance. Sup
pose resident of Eaton Rapids wished
20 take his wife and family for days
fish; he would be required TO pay a
dollar apiece for as many as he had with
nm, for the bill says ALI residents. +"
The idea of poor man, farmer say,
past whose farm stream runs, or a
taxpayer, being compelled TO pay
dollar for the privilege of catching
fish now and then. 1t is worse than
foolishness-it is downright idiocy TO
even ask that such ideas be put into laws
~ uOtH uDl Sttul llldl lutu III bntlT TlRnt
minds would enact such bill into a
law. And again, we ask, how would
such a law be enforced? II would, if
passed, create offices for few hundred
more deputy game wardens at fat sal
airy whose duty it would be TO sneak
along the shores of our streams and ar
rest some poor man for trying to help
feed his family The poor man should
have just as much right to get freely
what club of wealthy "sportsmen"
would compel him to pay for by legisla.
tion.-Eaton Rapids Journal
We hope the legislature will have
sense enough to see through the scheme
by which the wealthy sportsmen, if the
bill should pass, would be practically
the only ones, TO be benefited, to the de-
triment of all the rest of the people who
like to take half day off occasionly and
pursue the finny tribe. BY all means
kill the bill.

FEMININE SPECTATORS.
Many Prominent Philadelphia Won-
en- Gamble in Stocks to an
Alarming Extent.

The fact that many of the leading
women of Philadelphia gamble in
stocks was a fact brought out by the
failure there recently of a big firm
of stock brokers. The women who
were losers by their collapse have
thronged the offices of the assignee
for the bankrupts, trying to make
some advantageous arrangement of
their unfortunate investments. AS a
rule, the women were well dressed.
In years they had reached or passed
middle life. While in appearance they
seemed to be shrewd, womanlike,
scarcely one of them was able to
comprehend how Howard, Crosby &
Co. should not drop around and make
good every investment made on the
board, says an eastern exchange
They had been slipping into this
CHESTNUT street Office for months to
gamble on the market. The habit
seemed to have wonderful hold on
them. AS a rule, their custom was
to drop into the office each day and
examine the board. iounging idly
about and following the musical
click of the sOunder.
After comparing the quotations
with those of previous days and
watching the board for a few min
i utes the patrons would place their
orders. If a certain stock would be
20 and advanced two points to ~.
when the women returned on the fol-
lowing day they sold out and studied
the boards for new invetments.
| AS rule. these women spectators
/ are mllliners, dressmakers or sales
women. Their purchases varied from
ten dollars up to $50. Some of them
! have been following the business for
months and have made money Scarce
iy any of them are losers on invest
ments made previous to two or three
days before the failure.
