A HOWLING SUCCESS
Was The O'BryOn Opening i'm
This City Yesterday.
Large Crowds Found Their Way tc
The Grand Opening-will BE "a
Popular Resort.

Yesterday afternoon. as per announce
ment, the doors of Frank o'Bryon's Ice
Cream and Confectionery parlor we're
thrown open to the public, and without
any exception it is certainly the SWEETEST
store of the kind to be found in any city
even twice the size Of Belding, in the en-
tire state of Michigan. Before entering
the store the eye of the visitor is greeted
oy the attractive candy, fruit and floral
display so tastily arranged in the spacious
show window.
On entering the store the first thing to
attract the attention is the row Of beauti-
ful show cases of the most artistic con-
struction from the Grand Rapids Show
Case Co.. all of which are filled with the
large selection Of fine confectionery and
bon bon boxes.
At the end of the show cases stands the
Peerless Electric Upright Piano operated
mechanically by means of an electric cur
rent or can be PLAYED by hand the same
as an ordinary piano. 1t is mechanical
wonder and at once attracts the attention
of all with its full, clear toned notes and
absolutely perfect performance. This
beautiful instrument is one Of the finest
things in electrical pianos and came from
the great music house of Grinnell Bros
Of Detroit and is equipped for producing
thirty different selections.
Passing the piano reluctantly the eye
of the visitor is next attracted to num-
Der Of beautiful tables surrounded by ar
tstlc chairs at which TIA patrons of the
store will be served with everything in
the line of ice cream, ice cream soda, hot
soda and all Of the other popular drinks
to be found in an up-to-date establishment
OF this kind
The soda fountain is a magnificent af
fair. beautifully lighted with electric
lights and occupies nearly the entire rear
end of the store. 1t is far in advance of
anything ever seen in this section of the
country and will be the depository from
which the celebrated Velvet Ice Cream
will be served to the customers The
fountain is the product of the Wallace
Mfg. Co. of Decator. illinois, and is a
thing Of beauty and fine workmanship.
So great was the rush at the opening
that the five hundred carnations and En-
glish yiolets given as souvenirs of the oe-
casion were entirely gone before three
o'clock and another lnstallment was re-
oeyed from Grand Rapids on the 6;l9
train.
Besides the fine stock Of fruits confec-

VERY FAMILIAR FACE
An Early Pioneer of Keene Town
ship.
Freeman Kilborn il Well and favor
ably known Among his Large
Host of Friends.

Freeman Kilborn, whose picture is given
below, was born in the state of Connect
cut. March 2. 1928. His parents moved
to the township of Sheldon, Wyoming
county, N. Y, when he was small child
and together with three older children
and one born in the new home Mr.. Kill
born spent his boyhood days there.
Mr.. Kilborn's father died soon after
their location in New York, so the care OF
the family and widowed mother fell upon
an older brother who was several years
Freeman's senior, which he continued un-
til the marriage Of his mother the second
time.
So the happy years of boyhood passed
quickly away, and later Jeremiah, the
older brother, moved to Michigan and 10
Gated in Keene where his oldest son, James
now resides.
Freeman soon caught the fever and al
so came to Michigan in 1874 and located
on the farm which is still his home. He
stayed here about year and then re-
turned to his former home in New York,

The bullet passed through his coat, vest
and two shirts making an ugly abrasion
of the skin as 1t struck the collar bone
which will require dressing for several
days. After nfcting the injury the ball
again passed through his shirts and was
found in the sleeve to his coat.
Mr.. lnscho was positive that he was

Or. Little had hard work to convince him
that the ball had not penetrated his flesh
until it fell from his sleeve on to the floor
The flesh in the vicinity of the injury was
backened over a space Of ABOUT four
inches square. and so close was he to the
revolver when the shot was fired that the
smoke came from his shirt when he open
ed his coat to look for his wound, showing
clearly how close to death the young man
had been.
