BOLD BAD THIEVES.
They Made a Raid on Several Places In
Alma This Week

On NJ onday of this week man was
discovered in Sharrar q Muiholland's
drug store about midnight and the night
watch was notified. Ii was discovered
that the would.b be burglar had entered
by basement window in the rear and
when the alarm was given he started for
the cellar, The nightwatch was on
hand though and he feared TO come out,
bat in a short time unbolted the back
d or OF the store and made arace for liD.
erty The nightwatch fired several shots
q, him but the man escaped and no clue
has been found as TO who it was. On
Tuesday morning il was discovered that
Geo. Elias saloon had been entered from
rear window and about six dollars were
m ssing from the cash register. The
thief had entered from the rear and his
foot prints were plainly observable in
the wet sand between the hotel and
saloon. IL was also discovered that the
union depot had been entered through
one the windows TO the ticket office, but
the only thing Agent Winchell could dis
cover missing was one interchangeable
mileage book.
There has been a gang Of tough char.
acters imported into town from the cities

is thought that perhaps some one or
more OF these hoodlums were connected
with the robberies, but nothing has been
proven as yet Olly fifteen cents was
taken from Sharrar & Mulholland's drug
store, the amount being all that was left
in the till at closing time. This is the
second time during the past two months
that this store has been entered, and in

The IDEAL Angel.

One OF our subscribers ran across the
following clipping in one Of the daily
papers, and believing that the Ideal
Angel" was a minus quantity in Alma,
requested US to publish it, which we do
with pleasure: Rev. John l.. Scudder,
famous preacher Of Jersey City, says the
ideal angel weighs 1870 pounds. He
was speaking on How to Bring Up Our
Girls"
Gas a nation, said he" we are faulty
in the lack Of physical education for our
young women In the average family
the daughters are told that to romp is
unladylike. The American woman
thinks more of what she puts on her
daughters backs than into their consti.

women fade early and cannot properly
endure the strains Of modern life II an
English girl can play cricket with her
brothers, why should not an American
girl play something better than bean
bagi a lily white complexion may be
beautiful sight from an artistic point
of view, but it shows that the blood is
weak aud that the owner thereof is more
fiji for heaven than for earth
THE kind of angel like to see weighs
not less than 100 pounds. Her waist
is more than five inches in diameter, and
her heels, instead Of being perched up on
stills, are on the level with the rest Of
her feet. She is as straight as an arrow; .
she never has Mysteries she sleeps seven
hours and enjoys every moment of it.
She has clear head, a pure heart and
a cheerful disposition. She is a real
mountaineering artificial or assumed
about her. She is no sham, no apology or
caricature of woman. She is just

A RECORD BREAKER
The Republican State Ticket
Nominated in a Rush.
COMPLETE HARMONY PREVAILS.

l.
1t was just after 5:20 O'Clock Thursday
afternoon Of last week when the last car.
didates on the Republican state ticket
were nominated. The convention was
something of record breaker for quick
work when the preliminaries were
brushed.
Some delegates who opposed the re-
nomination Of Gov Bliss were looking
for trouble at first. The scheme for
secret ballot, coming in the shape of a
minority report of the committee on
permanent organization and order OF
business, was 10 be the first vehicle Of
disturbance. The defeat Of this PROPOSE
ton by vote of III to 3l6 put quietus
on the opposition, h lwever, and, save
for the formalities OF roll call on three
nominations, the business OF the con
vention went along very smoothly and
quickly aft rwards,
Gov. Bliss developed Just Il lit lie more
strength that his friends had claimed for

win by 500. The governor beat that
figure by l3 votes Stearus mustered

OUR TICKET.

As usual the Detroit Journal Is as
nearly correct as possible in commenting
upon the politics of Michigan, as the
following editorial proves: The pre-
dom mating Republican sentiment in the
state made the ticket and the platform

ably that sentiment wished the re.nomi-

Horton and Mr. Patton each had COM
plimentary votes there was no more Of
wrangling than is to be expected when
many men of several minds come to-
gether TO reach speedy agreement; and
the ticket is made up of men found
competent to fill the respective offices.

nation next 70 that of governor the con
vention came up to expectation. Charles
A. Blair is well equipped for the office
Of attorney general. He is young

ed in his profession, Of high character,
OF high ability.
The work of the Office Of attorney
general for the next two years is
likely to be of the highest import
ance The railway cases for alleged
damage growing out of the repeal of the
special charter of the Michigan Central
will call for the utmost vigilance in
guarding the interests of the tax payers.
There is every reason TO believe that Mr..
Blair will justify the choice Of the con-
vention in the work he does and that he
will make record which his ancestry
leads the state 10 expect.
This ticket will be opposed by a ticket
made up from the ranks of the most dis
organized party the world ever saw; a
party which is not in agreement with
anything that has been done, or with
itself; that merely buzzes about the
wheel of progress calling for halt in the
affairs of the state and the world to give

Venezuela has been unfriendly TO the
L Iited States for many years, The
treatment OF the United States repre-.
sentatives in that country by its govern.
ment is not calculated TO win it any
friends in the United States. 1t was
the United States, in the Cleveland
Salisbury episode Of lS95.1S96, that
secured the arbitration which saved
to Venezuela the vast tract which Eng
land was seeking to annex. Apparent.
ly, though, Venezuela thinks there was
nothing in the United States act in that
crisis which deserves any gratitude.
The present government Of Venezuela
is not calculated to win much credit for
itself at home or abroad.
