Robt. Leipsie, of Edgar, boy of
sixteen years, was before Judge Miller
today upon complaint of his father,
who charged that he was incorrigible
and desired that he be sent to the re-
form school. The boys manners and
expressions and his answers TO the
questions asked of him, would indi-

I E D. Voyer, of Grand Rapids, who
was arrested some weeks ago upon
complaint of the Singer Sewing Ma
chine Co., whose agent he was, will
have his hearing before Judge Miller,
Wednesday. Voyer is charged with
embezzling the funds of the said com.
pany but claims that when he gets into
court he can prove that his actions
were not crooked. The company claims
it paid him a commission for selling u
large number of machines, but that
when the machines were to be delivered
it was found that the names of pur.
chasers he had given were fictitious
Voyer claims he can prove such rot to
be the case but the trouble lies in his
being unwilling 10 sacrifice his time in
showing the company's man around
when the latter was making his deliv.
cries. Other irregularities are charged
against Voyer, all of which he says he
can disprove.

loggers are already employing men
daily in shoveling snow onto the roads,
