Havard. medical corps Major Macomb,
and Capt William Judson, engineers,
were captured at Mukden.
All are well known in Washington. A
sister of Captain Judson, Mrs. W. P.
Wooten. lives at the Portner. Colonel
Havard was chief surgeon of the cavalry
division, Fifth corps, in Cuba, with Gen.
Joe Wheeler.
There is no anxiety at the War De-
partn1ent as to the fate of the officers,
but it is said that they will now prob
ably be Obliged to return home. Iheif

captured will be at an end

The Americans along with other for
etgn attaches captured, and some prison
ers of high rank taken by the japanese
are being sent to Tokyo. War Depart
n.ent officials are confident that they
will be given the best of treatment by
the japanese.
In fact it is said that they VIII now
undergo less hardship than would have
been the case had they remained with
the denioraliZed Russian forces, among
whom it IS expected there Will be great
suffering on account of loss OF pfoF1S-
ions.
The State Department has received an
official dispatch announcing that the
officers mentioned fell into the hands
of the victorious japanese at Mukden
A Year of Service
CAPTAIN .Iudson, who represents the
engineer corps as observer with the
Russian forces, left Washington for the
East a year ago. He has been in the
hardest part of the campaign. Prior
to this duty he was with the War De-
Dartrnent in Washington for a long
time as one of the assistants to the
chief of engineers.
Colonel Havard is one of the best
known of the army surgeons. His expe-
rience during the Santiago campaign
gave him splendid qualification to rep
resent the medical corps with the Rus
sian forces. He was at one time chief
surgeon at Havana.

John fl. Taylor, late register Of deeds,
was a man of fine attainments aud upim-
peachable character Left an orphan at
an early age, he creditably made his way
in the world and laid the foundation of
success in his later manhood years.
At the age of Is he entered the service
of his country as volunteer in the 10Th
Mich infantry, and was with the regi-
ment in all its marches, battles and
hardships, until the action at Kenesaw
mountain cost him his right leg. He
was, thereafter, for the space of year,
under hospital care, suffering all that
was incident to such severe wound.
Early in the history of the command his
regiment was captured by overwhelming
numbers, and be and his comrades were
speedily transferred to Libby prison. At
the end of three months an exchange
was fortunately Effected
Mr.. Taylor served as postmaster at
Keeler, his home town, for IS successive
years, and was thereafter promoted in
public trust by being elected register of
deeds for Van Buren county in which
capacity he acceptably served the public
for two official terms.
After retirement from office be contin,
ued his residence in Paw Paw, and was
cordially esteemed by large circle of
friends, He died at the age of 60
The funeral service was conducted by
Rev. E. H. Harvey at the home Of the
deceased. The remains were taken to
Keeler for burial, the latter service being
conducted by the lodge of Odd Fellows,

Board of Supervisors.

County School Commissioner Aseltine
came before the board and asked that
his actual expenses be paid him, but not
to exceed 5000 This request was made
a special order, and when taken up his
salary was made 81 400, he to pay his own
expenses. This increase in salary is
justified by the increased amount of
work added to this office by the last ses-
sion of the legislature.
The report of the committee on equal
ization placed the value of the county
at Sl4,240000 an increase of $4,000
over 1904. Comparing the equalization
of the various townships we find the av-
erage per capita assessment of the
county to be S442; Paw Paw township
1923, South Haven S404, Bangor 1858,
Decatur S4lS, Hartford 1898. Take any
system you may, Paw Paw proves her
self the best town in the county.
The tramp question was brought be-
fore the board by Sheriff Britton, who
suggested that some provision be made
to care for tramps. His remedy was that
they be sent to Detroit house of correc-
ton. After some discussion the ques-
ton was postponed until the January
session.
Bloomingdale heads the list with s2lO
assessed against dogs in that township,
while South Haven assessors failed to
find any.
The county printing was awarded to
The True Northerner at slight increase
over last years contract, but it is still
below what other counties pay.
The expenses of Sheriff Britton and
local deputies since the January session,
as allowed by the board, amounted to
S5,9l1.58. This includes all fees, board
of prisoners and such other expenses as
were incurred in the discharge Of duties
devolving on that position.
The dispensing of justice was no small
item in county expenses. In Paw Paw,
justice fees were allowed amounting to
1859. or this amount o. w. Rowland
received sl3l, VIM. Killefer s464 and w.

were incurred since the January session.

The Bridge We Do Not Cross.

How oft we trousle borrow.
And suffer mental pain,
Conjuripg clouds tomorrow
While yet no sign of rain.
Future gloom foreboding
At night on pillows toss,
In fear of overlooking
The bridge we do not cross.
From road there is no turning
That we can see just now,
Trouble ahead discerning,
To avoid we know not how.
And so we roll and tumble
At night with sleep loss,
And hear the distant rumble
On bridge we do not cross.
We see no silver lining
On clouds our fancy paints,
No stars through riffs are shining,
Blackness our path attaints.
When daylight shows our folly
We then may count the cost
Passing streams of melancholy
The bridge we have not crossed.
