UNEXPECTED STORM.
Weather Bureau Surprised by De-
velopments Off the Coast.

All calculations of the weather bureau
were knocked into a cooked hat yes
terday according to Prof Frankenfield,
one of the official forecasters, because of
the sudden appearance of storm off the
North Carolina coast last night. This dis
turbance was totally unexpected, and the
weather men had their eyes on a high
in the northwest, when the churning storm
clouds made their appearance near Cape
Hatteras, and the unforeseen storm 'devel-
oped out of nothing" as Prof. Frankenfield
stated it.
He also said that such thing as storm
developing over night occurs every few
years, and spoil the calculations that are
being made on the weather map. The mys-
FERROUS development was reported by spe-
cial kilograms to Prof Moore yesterday
afternoon. 1t was central off Atlantic City,
N. j., with a wind velocity of twenty-five
miles an hour from the east, which may
result in heavy seas.
Prof. Henry, one Of the official forecast
ers of the weather bureau, said this after
noon that the weather outlook presented
stagnated condition, and that there
might be a general variety of weather con-
ditions before the ringing of the gladstone
Christmas bells next Tuesday morning. He
added, however. that there was not as yet
any cold weather in sight.

at the Police Court this morning, was fined

Workman EIectrocuted.

The body of Frank " Crusoe, an
electrician employed by the McLeary
Electrical Co., was found Friday morn
ing in the loft under the roof of the
Detroit city hall, where ii had lain
almost "a hours. One hand tightly
gripping a heavily charged feed wire
told the story of Crusoe's end. Work
ing at a disadvantage because Of
cramped quarters and the intense heat,
the electrician had evidently grasped
the bare wire and in an instant his life
was gone.
Directly beneath, hundreds of busy
people came and went, but the body
was not discovered until "a hours
later, after a systematic hunt for the
man had been instituted.
Crusoe was about 20 years old and
lived with relatives at 225 Greenwood
avenue. He had done much of the
electrical work in the city hall since
it's rehabilitation and was familiar
with every foot of the building.

Plundered the House.

Three boys under ten years Of age,
Harold and Howard Swarts and Clar-
ence Bruce, were arrested while they
were looting the home of VIM. Brun-
dage, of Jackson, the Brundage fam.
lily being at northern summer resort.
The lads had spent day in carrying
off plumber and had engaged a little
sister of the Swarts boys TO help them
with lot of jewelry and brio a-brac
they had piled up for another trip.
Considerable of the. stuff has been re-
covered, but the exact amount taken
cannot be known until the Brundage
family returns. The Swarts boys are
reat-grandchildren of the late Col.
Eaton, one of Jackson's best known
pioneers.
The city has had an epidemic of
youthful "desperadoes" since they
learned that the law cannot touch
them If they are under ten years of
age This last trio, like others, are
most defiant and express no sorrow for
their wrong-doing.

A New Decision.

Attorney General Bird has decided
that a person enrolled as an "inde-
pendent" may circulate petitions for
nomination to office on the Republican
ticket, holding that the law cannot de-
prive any elector of the right to be-
come a candidate for Office in any
party.
A name appearing on two petitions
for the same Office should not be
counted for either party, as county
clerks should not be required to solve
the proposition of the intent of any
petitioner.
The Twenty sixth and Twentysev-
enth senatorial districts declared for
primary nominations, but since the
primary Benzie county, by decision
OF the supreme court, on the 1905 ap-
Portionment, has been transferred
from the former to the latter district.
Mr.. Bird decides that this does not
affect the primary vote.
BY the same decision Arenac county
is now with Bay and Midland coun-
ties in a senatorial district. Arenac
had not declared itself for primaries,
but Bay and Midland had. That the
senator in that district should be elect
ed by the primary method, is the rul'
ing of the attorney general, inasmuch
as all the enrolled voters of Arenac
could not overcome the majority for
the proposition in the other two coun
ties

HAPPENINGS
THE MILLIONS OF SCHOOL
MONEY; A FAIR DlsTRlBU-
TON SCHEME.
IACKSoN'S BOY BURGLARS
Grand Rapids Mans Scheme for Dis
tributlns School Money-5oy Burg
lars Loot a House.
Sulllvan's Idea.

That the nine millions OF primary
school money resulting from the pay
ment of back railroad taxes should be
distributed this fall on the basis OF the
school census OF each year for which
the taxes were paid, is the opinion
voiced by Simon Sullivan, chief clerk
Of the Grand Rapids board of asses
sors for nearly twenty years, and a
well-posted municipal student. He de-
clares that the proposed method of dis
tribution, based on the census of 1905,
Is unfair. Referring to the circular
Issued by Superintendent of Public In
struction Kelley, he says:
THE railroad taxes came due year
by year. They should have been paid
year by year, too, according TO the
courts decision. Had they been paid
In this way they would have been dis
tributed among the counties, the taxes
Of each year being distributed accord
ing 10 the census of that year.
But the fact that the railroads did
not follow the law makes no difference
with the rights of the counties. They
are certainly entitled to a division up
on the same basis as would have been
followed had the railroads forthwith
yielded obedience to the law.
This view does not provide for the
distribution of the interest and penal
ties. but these might well enough be
handed out in accordance with the
census of 1905, which governed at the
time the penalties were imposed"

AROUND THE STATE.



After being buffeted about for years,
doing the drudgery of farm work for
various families and finally landing in
the Genesee county aims house, the
mother a a babe OF which she claims
her half.brother is the father, Ivia
Beebe, aged FL years, has found a
haven Of refuge in the home of Free
man F. Smith, a prosperous farmer OF
Handy township, Livingston county,
who has made the girl his wife.
Left motherless when a child, Ivia
found the advent of a stepmother not
to her liking, and when she became old
enough she worked out" The officers
say that she gave birth to a child some
years ago and at that time was sent to
the county house for the first time.
Last May she caused the arrest OF
her half brother, Bert Keyser, who
with his large family had lived in the
township of Montrose, but moved from
there last fall to Fowlerville. Here
lvia visited and first met Smith, whose
home is near that village.
Keyser was still at Fowlerville when
arrested. but his family was brought
to straitened circumstances while he
was confined in Jail, and he was re-
leased.
Farmer Smith, who chose Ivia Beebe
for a bride, is 45 years old. He told
the girl that he wanted to marry her,
and that he cared not what had befal-
len her earlier in life. He owns an
SO-acre farm and is fairly prosperous.
He has been married and divorced, his
wife now living near Fowlerville and
having the custody of their five chill
dren.
