People Who Have Died From the ED
fects of Them.
In an article on the stings Of wasps
British medical journal cites the two
following cases which have come I'M
der its notice: A strong, healthy girl Of
q was stung on the neck by wasp
and tainted. On regaining conscious
ness she complained of general feel
ing Of numbness and partial blindness
and vomited She suffered severe alb
dominal pain. She recovered In the
course Of few hours. Two months
later she was stung again, this time on
the hand. Her face became flushed,
she again complained Of numbness and
blindness, suddenly became very pale,
tainted and died % minutes after she
was stung.
Another case was that Of a girl Of p
years, who was stung by wasp be-
hind the angle Of the jaw. The sting
was at once extracted and ammonia
applied. In few minutes she COM
planned Of faintness and would have
fallen IL she had not been supported.
Her face assumed "a expression of
great anxiety, and few minutes later
she was tossing on the bed complain
ing Of horrible feeling Of choking
and Of agonizing pain in the chest and
abdomen. Brandy gave no relief. There
was nausea, but no vomiting. She
rapidly became insensible and died Is
minutes after receiving the sting. The
most probable explanation Of such
cases seems to lie In what Is known as
idtosyncrasy- that is, abnormal sensi-
ttveness in particular individuals to
certain toxic agents. It is well known
that drugs vary much In action on DIFF
ferent people. What Is safe dose for
one Is dangerously large for another.
The inability OF some people to eat
strawberries or shellfsh Is another in
stance Of the same phenomenon. The
sctive agent Of bee stings Is generally
believed to be formtc acid It therefore
seems very desirable that we should
have more accurate information re-
garding the action Of this drug on diff
ferent species OF the lower animals

The driver made no effort to check

the horses and then at the driver, who
had broad grin on his face. By hard

mind that the many employees of the
house and senate receive either two or
three dollars per day, their compensa-
ton increasing according to the length
of the session. If the session of each
legislature is shortened 80 days or
more, the state will save several
thousand dollars in the pay of these
employees.
1t is safe TO say that over a period
of years the state will save from five
to ten thousand dollars every session
of the legislature, the saving varying
according TO the length Of the regular
session and the number of special
sessions.
The proposed one thousand dollar
salary covers the entire term and all
sessions which may be held during that
term. If the people are wise they will
vote for this amendment TO the con-
stitution, thus saving money to the
state and identifying and elevating the
legislature itself.

Are They Legal2

South Haven has great deal to say
about Paw Paws bonds not being legal.
Such talk is i'm line with the campaign
of misrepresentation and falsehood the
town i'm the corner has carried on all
along.
Paw Paws bonds are as legal as can
he, every step having been taken in ac-
cordance with the act of the legislature.
Has South Haven proceeded regularity
The South Haven bonding bill was
signed by the governor March 10. The
township board held meeting March
IA. before The lac i0ds IN force, and when
they should have known that fact if they
did not, and called an election for the
18th, publishing such call. Afterwards,
they fixed it up so as to have their meet
ing March ID, calling their election for
the 18th, bit nine days notice interUen-
ina Jetwcen the call and the day Of etec-
ton, inStead Of 10 days notice as requtr-
ed by lao0
The general law requires that a petit
ton signed by u freeholders shall be
presented to the township board before
calling a special election. South Ravens
notices do not show any such petition.
If there should be any wish to attack
the validity of the bonds, South Ravens
are open to attack, and any moneys
held in trust received from the bonds,
could be reached as readily as the bonds
themselves.

A Case of Justice.

BY the vote in South Haven on
Monday, and the vote Wednes-
day in Paw Paw, the county seat
question assumes a new phase
and is presented to every voter
in the county in a new light.
1t is now assured that new
bhildings will be erected, and
those who hoped, by a refusal to
vote the county bonds, to post
pone this responsibility, are con
fronted by this question of equity
and morals: Ought either of these
rival townships to be obliged
to assume this burden? The
voter, in whichever township he
may reside, who opposes the
county bond question, votes to
shirk his fair share of RESPONSE
bility and requires his neighbor
to pay that which he ought in all
fairness to share. This question
comes with equal force to the
friends of either locality. 1t is
admitted that the cost of build
ings and grounds in South Haven
will be considerably greater than
i'll Paw Paw, where the county
already owns a site, and the
voter is assured that no more
money will be asked for to com
plete what $780, 900 fails to cover
in a new location.
| cannot see how voter who
has openly (and | presume hon
estly) opposed the bond question,
can face the future now without
change of heart and purpose,
under existing circumstances.
County buildings are heproperty
of every voter in the county; but
if |, who live in another town
ship, require, by my vote, that
my neighbor shall build for me,
on my site, | shall feel very
small in the future when present
myself there and ask for favors.
Twas inclined to vote for the bonds
before and | must now.

ably worked up over the course of Editor
Jennings of the Times, who made arrange
ments to publish a large edition of his
newspaper, for a substantial consldera
ton from Lawrence business men, advo-
eating the interests of Lawrence and
urging the people of that locality to vote
against removal and against the bonds,
in the hope that Lawrence might get a
chance at the county seat at some future
time
Now Editor Jennings is under the
weather and it's suspected it's South
Haven weather he's under. Anyway,
there's a tempest in Lawrence, and its
people will largely vote against removal
just the same.

Salary for Legislators.
Lansing, March Goth, 1901.

Lansing, March 10th, 19Ol.
Editor The True Northerner:-
There are many opinions as TO the
proper compensation for members of
the legislature. When the constitution
of 1850 was adopted the compensation
was fixed at three dollars per day for
members in the Lower Peninsula and
not to exceed five dollars per day for
members in the Upper Peninsula. At
that time the sessions of the legisla-
ture were comparatively short and the
value of time considered less seriously
than now. In the process of time the
per diem system of compensation
has tended not only to prolong the
sessions of the legislature but also to
cheaper the character of the service
performed. The tendency of the times
is to place all public servants upon
fixed compensation instead of per
diem compensation.
When the proposition was first in
troduced in the legislature of this year
there were many opinions as TO what
should be the fixed amount. The
members from the Upper Peninsula
many of them already received nearly
a thousand dollars and were anxious
TO have the compensation not less than
fifteen hundred dollars for the two
years. Many members from the lower
peninsula, particularly from the farm
ing districts, thought that five hundred
dollars was enough for the two years.
The legislature in fixing the compensa-
ton at one thousand dollars was of the
opinion that this was a fair average
and over period of years including
regular and extra sessions would be
' about the average compensation for
all members both from the lower and
Upper Peninsula. 1t is believed that
whatever increase in compensation
may appear on the surface will be more
than offset by the shorter sessions and
the failure to secure compensation for
extra sessions.
Furthermore, it must be borne in
