TO RAISE RATES.
Those Paid by Members Of the
Nj. w. of A. Said to be
Too Low,

An important change is proposed
in the laws of the Modern Woodmen
of America, of whom there are about
45, 600 in Michigan. A number OF
the more prominent and experienced
officers of the body have come to the
conclusion that the present rates
are too low to permit OF continued
life for the body, and a movement
has been started to make change.
The question will be brought up in
the national convention OF the order
this year. The county conventions
being held this month are to elect
delegates to the state convention,
which is to be held in May. In the
national body there are FIVE direc
tors, and G. ]. Byrns, Of Ishpeming,
member Of the present legislature,
and who has been state deputy and
head consul of the Woodmen for
seven years, is a candidate for one
of the positions. Director Byrns
believes in an increase in the rates,
and will try to get the state in
dorsement for the position.

Items of Interest Taken From

Condensed.

Advices from Lansing are that the
house ways and means committee

Proceeds Of the Nj. Il. Church
Fair and Bazaar Thursday
Evening.

The members OF the Ladies Aid
society of the NJ. E. church have
reason to feel proud of the result
Of their efforts of the past few
months to \raise funds for the
church. The sum of $391.73 was
taken in at the supper and from the
sale of articles at the fair and fancy
bazaar held in the Town Hall
Thursday evening. The expenses
in getting up the affair will foot
up to about forty dollars, so the
ladies figure on about $3.50 as the
net result Of their labors. This is
highly satisfactory, all things con-
sidered. ~
The ladies wish to thank all who
aided in getting up the affair, and
likewise the people OF the COM
munity in general for the readiness
with which their purse strings were
loosened.

LAND OFFICE RULING
U. 8. Land Office Officials Can
Now Mako Witnesses Toe
the Mark.

The register and receiver of The
Marquette land Office have just re
ceived official notice OF the passage
by the last congress of an act en-
titled, Gan act for the compulsory
attendance OF witnesses before
registers and receivers" This act,
which is now operative, will greatly
simplify and facilitate land Office
admistration throughout the coun.
try by giving, the officers the right
to subpoena any witnesses of whom
they are in need to get testimony
in cases they may have under ad-
visement. Heretofore there has
been no way OF compelling the at
tendance OF such witnesses, and the
ability of the parties to the con-
tests, or the land Office officers, to
.wheedle or coax them into attend
ing to give testimony has had to be
relied on to get any results. The
new law provides that the fees and
mileage for subpoenaed witnesses
shall be the same as those provided
by law in the district courts of the
United States in the districts in
which the land offices are situated.
In this district the allowance will
be for each witness $3.50 a day and
ten cents a mile. The witness shall
receive his mileage and one day s
fee in advance, and If detained over
one day shall receive each addition
al days fee in advance.
