Today.

WAsulNaToN, Oct. President Roose-
welt will soon he appealed to, as Presi-
dent Mckinley was. to make some friend
ly representation TO Great Britain in the
interest OF peace in South Africa.
Gen. O'Beirne. who represents the in.
terests OF the Beers in this country and
who early in the war sought recognition
as diplomatic agent OF the Beers. called
at the White House today, but merely
to pay my respects" he afterward said.
The South African war was not mention
ed today, but later Gen. o Beirne will
call upon Secretary Hay preliminary to
visit to the President, when efforts in
behalf of the Beers will be renewed.
Since he has been Chief Magistrate
President Roosevelt has given no indi-
cations OF the attitude he will assume
toward the Beers, though his announce
ment that he will continue unbroken the
policies OF the late President seems to
commit him 20 the position taken by
Mr.. Mckinley in relation to the South
African conflict.
Friends Of the Beers believe that Mr.
Roosevelt can consistently and with pro.
priety renew the proffer OF good offices
made by President Mckinley. They be-
Iieye that Great Britain is now in a
mood to listen to proposal OF this char
ac'er. King Edward has ascended the
throne since President Mckinley ap-
preached the British government on the
subject and may consider a tender Of
good Offices.
An official report, just issued in Lon
don. shows that the South African con-
centration camps contained l37, ,Gl9 per-
sons in August and that the deaths num-
bcred 2,345, of which number ,S7S were
children.

Hodgins Gets There.

Last spring there were complaints
because assessments were being made
at higher value than in former years.
Those who criticised did not take into
account that an increase in valuation
of all property alike does not increase
the amount that each tax payer must
pay for local township purposes. But
it is an important matter that our
townships assessed valuation as fixed
by the Board of Supervisors be kept on
a fair basis as compared to the other
townships to prevent an increase in the
amount of our state and county taxes.
Mr.. Hodgins was made q member of
the Board of Equalization, which is the
most important committee, as it fixes
the assessed valuation of all townships.
Mr.. Hodgins was able to show the COM
mittee that the assessment as he had
made il was at a fair value. AS a re-
suit his roll stands as assessed by him
self. The valuation as fixed by the
Board last year was 1881 900; this year
il is 1906. 000--a decrease of $4,000 for
the township, and direct gain in state
and county taxes for every taxpayer in
the township and village.

The Smallpox Scare.

For Obvious reasons we have hither-
to refrained from much comment on
the so-called smallpox epidemic in
Yale. But all sorts of wild rumors are
af1oat, and the very air seems charged
with stories, falsehoods and vain fab
relations, until many timid people are
unduly alarmed, and imagine the
danger hundred fold worse than it
really is. Perhaps the best way to re-
flute these wild rumors and disprove
the falsehoods is to simply and briefly
state the facts. In the first place let
us state that our health officers are
trying to do their duty in strictly en-
forcing the quarantine laws. They
are backed in this by the village offic-
ers, and every precaution is taken to
reduce the danger of infection to the
minimum. At the present writing
there is only one case reported in Yale,
and that of very mild form, and the
case is closely quarantined. The other
case is in quarantine in tent proYid-
ed by the village council, which is To-
Gated almost mile out of town and
in grove removed from the highway
and so isolated that it would be we'll
nigh impossible to spread the disease
from it. We have heard of people who
nave been made so nervous by these
wild rumors, that they are afraid to
come to town for their mail or neces-
sary shopping. Perhaps these nervous
fears cannot be wholly overcome; but
there is no more danger in coming to
Yale for pleasure or business than at
home snugly tucked in your own little
bed. This degree of safety and the
limited number of cases, are due to
the prompt and efficient measures
which DR.. Wight, and other health
officers are taking land all can rest as
sured that there will be no relaxing
of vigilance on their part, until every
vestige Of the disease is fully obliterat-
ed from the community. There is one
case of smallpox now in Yale, but it is
so tightly boxed up, so almost her.

you could not catch II if you so de-

MRS. AMANDA NIGER EeoR.

On Tuesday evening, June 25th, our
community was shocked by the news
that Mrs. Amanda McGregor was dead.
For years she has been afflicted with
chronic bronchial trouble, but her sud-
den death was due to internal hemor-
rhage. The deceased was born in Can
ada about 90 years ago; but for num-
Der of years has resided in Yale and
vicinity. Her maiden name was War
ner, and she was married to James Nc
Gregor about 20 years ago To this un-
ion were born five children, all of whom
are yet living: Clara, now Mrs. Brooks,
Jennie, Euretta, Roy II. and Rose. The
funeral was held in the NJ. e. church
yesterday afternoon, Rev. Durr ofiicia-
ting, and the burial took place in the
FlmWood cemetery.

DEATHS DOINGS.
MRS. ROGER WEIGH.

Hattie Brooks was born in Valley
Center, Sanilac county, Michigan, July
II, 1871, and died at Yale, June %,
1901, aged 20 years, IL months and 20
days. She was married to Roger
Welch, Oct. !, 1890, and to this union
were born three children who yet sur
vive; Isla, aged 0; Ida, aged Z, and
Basil, aged years. Her parents are
both dead. Mrs. Welch has been in
poor health for several years; but the
immediate cause of her death was
some form of acute Inflammation.
The funeral was held Monday, the oath,
at the NJ. e. church, Rev. Il. Durr
officiating, and was attended by a vast
concourse of friends, Lady Maccabees,
of which order deceased was a member,
and Sir knights. The interment &C.
CURED in Elmw God cemetery, where
the form of the beloved wife and fond
mother was laid to its final rest.
In behalf of Mr.. Welch, the bereft
husband, we extend thanks to all the
friends for the multitude of kindnesses
shown in the hour of great sorrow.
He is especially grateful to the Lady
Maccabees for their attendance and
floral tributes, and music furnished at
the obsequies.

between conversation with his trans

Spiders Webs.

The webs of those spiders which spin
snares out of doors, as the geometrical
garden spider, are formed of two sorts
of silk, one of which is used for the
main cables and the radiating threads,
the other for the concentric threads.
The latter are thickly studded with
minute globules Of viscous substance,
which retains the fly, gnat or moth
that may biunder against them, while
the former are quite dry and harmless.
A third kind of silk is produced by the
busy little spinner when some such
large insect as a wasp has become en-
tangled in the web and threatens to
break the delicate structure in it's strug-
giles. This takes the form of an envel-
oping mass, which is suddenly produc-
ed and which efectually prevents any
further gyrations on the part of the
captured insect.-Cornhill Magazine.

ANIMALS IN A STORM.
Traey Dislike the Wet Weather and
Seek a Place of Safety.


Both wild and tame animals, four
footed or with wings, have deep seat
ed aversion to wet weather. Even wa
ter fowl will seek a dry hiding place
when it rains.
Did you ever watch the actions of
cattle before a big storm? If so, you
must Lave seen them grow more and
more uneasy as the clouds gathered.
You also saw them run up and down
the field, as if seeking to escape some
impending danger. Finally, when the
storm breaks, they draw close together
and with lowered heads present a pic
ture of despair.
Domestic animals when it rains will
always keep indoors, or, failing that,
they will seek shelter by the barn or
under trees or beneath the hedges and
thickets-in shsrt, in any convenient
place where they may not be entirely
exposed to the downpour.
1t is the same with fowls. They dis
like the rain, which soaks their feath
ers. They seek sheltered places and
creep under wagons or behind boxes
and boards. Chickens do not mind get
ting their feet wet, for they will scratch
the ground soon after a shower in
search of worms and beetles.
Wild birds do their best to keep out
of the rain. Solne of them build a roof
over their nests; others choose a home
under the caves or under a projecting
cliff, where they may be safe from the
discomfort that the rain brings.
But most of them are without shelter
provided in advance by their own fore
thought. These take refuge in any
place that they happen to find at hand
If you watch them before the storm,
you will see them looking for such a
place. If the storm comes suddenly,
the small and helpless ones seem be-
wildered, flying from tree to tree and,
from limb to limb, quite unable to make
up their minds exactly where to hide

Near Dakar, in lower Senegal, is an
enormous baObab tree whose trunk
measures fully seventy-five feet in cir
conference at the base The fruit Of
the baobab, which grows abundantly
in Senegal, is called monkey bread. y
It is used by the natives for curdling
milk and as a specific for certain dis
eases. Decoctions Of the dried leaves
are also used as medicine. From the
bark strong cords are made, and the
gum that exudes from it is employed
as salve. The root Of the young bao-
bab is sometimes eaten by the natives.
