Alleged Murderer of Dolly Reynolds
Out on $4,000 Bail.

Out on @lO,OOO Ball.
New York. June 19.-Dr. Samuel ].
Kennedy was released under $4,000
bail yesterday afternoon. When Judge
Newburger took his place on the bench
District Attorney Philbin suggested
that DR.. Kennedy be admitted to S10.-

thought the indictment ought to be
quashed, but Judge Newburger said a
motion to that effect would have to be
made in another court. Mr.. Moore then
consented to the fixing of the bail at
$4,000 and Judge Newburger issued
an order to that effect. The wife OF
Lieut.. Elmer E. Hand, retired naval
officer, furnished the bail.
AS Dr. Kennedy and Mr.. Moore walk
ed briskly through the streets about
600 men and boys joined in three
cheers for Kennedy" and made the re

and with a sob in her voice said: "Hov

DR.. Kennedy, looking tenderly at tn
wife, his voice trembling and tear
standing in his eyes.
DR.. Kennedy remained IN the Office

Nc. Pinaree's career.

Hazen Senter Pingree was born at
Denmark, Me, in 1910. In 1862 he en-
listed in the First Massachusetts heavy
artillery and served until the end of
the war when he located in Detroit,
embarking in the manufacturing OF
shoes. In 1889 the Republican party
nominated Mr.. Pingree for mayor OF
Detroit, and he was elected by over
1000 majority. He was reelected in
1S91-93-95, by increased majorities each
time. In 1896 Mr.. Pingree was select
ed as governor of Michigan by $4,000
plurality, running ahead of thesnatiOn-
al ticket by $4,000 votes. He was re-
elected governor in 1898 by about 100.
600 plurality and served out his term,
which expired in 1900. Last March he
started on the trip to South Africa
which resulted in his death in London.
Ex-Governor Pingree while he was
mayor accomplished many municipal
reforms, among others forcing the gas
company to lower their rates so cents
per thousand; establishing the public
lighting plant; organizing the Detroit
railway on a three cent fare basis; low.
ering telephone rates and breaking up
a number of sewer and paving rings
that were thriving when he came into
office. His potato patch scheme for the
relief of the poor of the city was eX.
tensively copied and brought him
much fame. While governor Mr.. Pin

and two children, a son and daughter

Maggie was placed in the county jail
yesterday, charged with numbering his
wife, his 6-year-old child and his wife's
mother, Mrs. Mary J. Hershberger, the

fact that he escaped with all his cloth

kinds the same thing is true, the slaugh.

These are good days for the farmer
to carefully study out the difference
between Il swindle and Il legitimate in
vestment. There never has been a
time when more specious and rank
frauds were abroad having for their
objective point the surplus earnings of
the man on the farm. They come in
the guise of mining. oil, insurance, real
estate, colonization, patent right and
manufacturing schemes, thickly sugar
coated, and at a time when the rate of
interest for money in all safe and le-
Ultimate enterprises was never so low.
We wish to repeat what we have here
tofOre said in these notes: If you have
a little surplus money-and the Lord
knows you have toiled these many
years to get tia farm mortgage if
you can find one, no matter how small
the rate of interest, or the land itself,
is the only real safe investment for
the average farmer. OF course this
statement refers to what may be term
ed permanent investments. Good use
can be found for money in improving
the grade of stock, putting up better
farm buildings, the drainage of wet
fields and better fencing, all or either
of which will be found a good interest
paying investment.

OLD THINGS.

OAAD AAA-N0Ss
What to do with old things-things
which have served their time and are
no longer profitable to keep-is often
quite a problem ON the farm. The old
horse, if one which has long been a
faithful servant. should be humaneiy
killed and under no circumstances
traded off to some peddler or horse
jockey. In fact, it may be put down
as a safe rule to go by that when a
horse has no value greater than 50 the
proper thing to do is to kill it as pain
lessly as possible. The old COW is a
different proposition, for in a sense her
carcass has n commercial value as meat
food; but she should not be sold to the
local butcher to worry the jaws of a
law abiding country community, but
should be sent to the canneries, where
she can tickle the palates of watering
place picnic parties. Old machinery
should be taken apart, the ironworE
! sold as junk and the woodwork used
as fuel. Old rubbers, clothing and rags
should go to the peddler for new tin
ware. Old hens-but then there SHOULD
never be any old hens on the farm
they should all go to market as 2-year
olds. The old dog, lame and NANCY
should be put out of the way will
chloroform and decently buried. 1t il
well to watch and avoid the getting o
old things on ones hands, especially il
the line of all domestic animals.
