Orson Allan Brock was born February
where he lived during his boyhood and
young manhood His father died when
he was a small boy and he was early
thrown upon his own resources En-
dowed with a fine physique, stout heart
and high ambition, he succeeded, in spite
of his environments, in securing a good
education i'm the common schools, finish
ing at Macedon academy.
He came to Michigan in 1852 at the
age OF % years, and made his home for
the two years following with an uncle
residing in Waverly township, Van Buren,
county. At that time, Van Buren, county
was on the frontier and its earliest set
tiers were its hardy pioneers.
March %, 1854, he married Ermina NJ.
Rogers, and went to housekeeping in a
log cabin consisting of two small rooms,
and built by his own hands. They were
the first settlers in what was afterwards
organized into school district No s.
He cleared up heavily timbered piece
of land and lived upon it until the spring
of 1880, when they sold it and removed
to Porter township, in the same county,
purchasing beautiful farm of l75 acres
en- the banks of Gravel lake, one of the
prettiest sheets of water in Michigan.
| There they resided until the spring of
1892, at which time they sold their Porter
farm and removed to Jackson county,
! purchasing a home in Summit township,
adjoining that of the Hon. John &. Sharp.
Here they lived for a few years, when
! they sold it and removed to their recent
! home on the Francis street road near
Vandercook's lake This place they sold
in the spring of 1908, purchased lots and
began the erection of a new house and
other buildings in the city of Jackson.
His health had always been good until
| he began the erection of the new house
when he began to fail and, after making
desperate struggle to regain his health
and strength, was compelled to give up,

confined to house and bed passed peace
fully away at 6 o'clock Sunday, Novem-
! Der % 1905.
Tender and loving hands laid him away
in his last resting place in beautiful
Woodland cemetery within plain view
of the home which he and his devoted
wife had so fondly hoped would for few
years be their new and comfortable home,
where they could enjoy their declining
years in the peace, comfort and quiet to
which over half century of toll and trials
had so richly entitled them; but man
proposes and God disposes, and so the
earthly career of one of earth's noblest
men has ended.

children, Mrs. A. f. (Dr.) Bulson, John

NEW BRITAIN SECOND.

President Grove in his address at the twenty-fourth anniversary of the Young Mems Temperance society of New Britain last night said: 'This organization is now the second largest temperance society in this country. The largest is in Philadelphia, but even that great city will be obliged to raise its official hat to New Britain in a few months for we intend to grow and to continue growing until this. society stands above the great organization that now heads the list. A member ship here, my friends, is good invest ment for any young man. If he lives up to our constitution and bylaws he will be good citizen of this communi- ty and a useful and worthy member of society. He will have advantages here that he cannot secure in any other so- ciety in America for the same money"

THE SUPERIOR COURT
Criminal Side WIFI Open Here on
 Tuesday Next.

The superior court, criminal side, opens next Tuesday, and the amount of business to be disposed of exceeds that of any other term since the court was established in Waterbury. If there are many trials there will be very little chance of disposing of any civil business at all Assistant States Attorney Kellogg has arranged the cases in this manner, leaving the more serious for the last:
 For Tuesday there are the cases of theft against James DeLuca, Charles Northrop for theft from the person, and a like case against Gussie Smith and Lizzie Stark; William Yanalovicz, attempted burglary; Nan Carter and William Slade, disorderly conduct, and George A. Stewart, assault with intent to kill.
 For Wednesday, assault with intent to kill against Timothy J. Scanlon; as- sault with intent to murder, Antonio Zackiewic; receiving stolen goods, Pas quale Ferino; theft from person, James Corr; assault with intent to kill, Yin cenzo Florio and Angelo Masseno; as- sault, Thomas Russell, Michael Mur- phy, William Griffin anod Thomas Bolton; conspiracy, Frederick Preston, and murder in the first degree, Joseph Cenesky, Edward Leonard and Charles Bassett. Bassett will arrive here about Tuesday night from Sing Sing, N. r., unless he refuses to come with out reduisition papers, in which case there will be some delay.
 This is the longest list and the most serious that the states attorney ever had to dispose of in this city.

DIR. PARKER IN ShASHUP
Trolley Car Struck Ambulance on
 Way to Coney Island.

John Parker of Washington street went to New York to-day to visit his brother, Dr Thomas Parker, an am bulance surgeon at Kings County hos pital who had close call for his life during the present week. The New York papers tell the story as follows:
 Ambulance Surgeon Parker and his driver, Mathew Stapleton, were on a hurry call. Police headquarters had notified the hospital to send an am bulance in haste to the Coney Island station.
 All went well until they reached Newkirk avenue and Coney Island av- enue, where there is a railroad cross ing. There is stop sign at that point and all trolley cars are sup posed to come to a standstill. Staple ton saw trolley car approaching. He thought the car would stop, but 1t continued at high rate of speed. 1t was car No 601 of the Brooklyn and Coney Island Railroad company, Motorman Thomas Hogan and Conduc- tor Bart Murphy in charge. Ambu- lance and trolley came together with a crash and the excitement was in tense. pr Parker was thrown back ward. He fell against a fence, suffer ing from bruises about the face and body. Stapleton was thrown beside the ambulance and bruised and cut on head and shoulders.
 ''Motorman Hogan and Conductor Murphy ran to the aid of the injured men. Dr Parker seized his bag and hurried to Stapleton's side. After dressing his wounds he left him in the care of the railroad men and went to the Parkville station and telephoned to his hospital. The ambulance was demolished, so Dr Parker borrowed a horse from the police, mounted it and rode to the Newkirk avenue station of the Brighton Beach railroad, where he took train for Coney Island. When he arrived he learned that a man had been attacked with cramps, attended by a local physician and talk en home Meanwhile the Kings Coun- ty hospital sent another ambulance to Coney Island where Dr Parker met 1t and returned to Brooklyn"

butchers May Pebble Meat.

HELENA, Nov. lS.-Attorney Gene
raj Galen has given an opinion to
County Attorney j. A. Matthews, of
Broadwater county, on the license re.
quirements OF those engaged in the
butchering business. Mr.. Matthews
%pr0pounds four questions to the attOr-
ney general. and the replies to the
questions are of interest TO butchers
and ranchers who sell meat.
The attorney general says that a
butcher Is not required to have a
butcher shop or other fixed place OF
business in the same sense as a mer-
chant or druggist. II he has a slaugh.
ter house, or other suitable place for
killing his beef and from which he
sells the same, either by retail at thai
place or by distributing it to his Gus
toners by means of a wagon, and has
paid the butchers license required, he
has complied with the law.
A rancher who has taken Out q
regular butchers license to sell meats
which he kills at his ranch home, may
take orders for, and deliver the same,
by the quarter, or he may haul such
meat by wagon through the country
and make sale and delivery at once
under his regular butchers license.
He is not required to procure in addi
ton to his butchers license. a ped
dIer's license.

Hill Denies Railroad Building Story

BUTTE, Nov. l7.-Louis w. Hill,
vice president of the Great Northern
railroad, who was in Butte today
denied point blank the story printed in
a Great Falls morning paper to the ef-
feet that work is to begin Immediately
10 constructing q branch of the Great
Northern railroad between Great Falls
and Billings. "For the past FIVE
years our annual report has stated
that We would build between Great
Falls and Billings, some time," said
Mr.. Hill, ''but we are not going to
start off with a big force of men from
Arlington, as has been stated. Why,
we have no survey through that coun.
try. The Burlington has ono but it's
no good. l am out In this country
now to look into the matter of the
Great Falls and Billings line, but
there is nothing immediate in it.
I'VE have stated for the past five
years that we would some time build
between Great Falls aud Billings.
When there gets to be sufficient bust
ness in that country to justify the line
we will build. The business is pretty
near sufficient now, but there will be
y great deal of preliminary work
necessary before the work can begin
aud there is nothing in the story Ina,
we will commence operations at once
with a big force of men,"
