important Brewery Decision.

A mandamus was issued by the su.
preme court to compel the Allegan
circuit court judge to SET aside an in
junction restraining August Hardy, Of
Wayland village, from selling any
other kind of beer except the brew of
the Schlitz company. Hardy had been
enjoined because he refused to carry
out the terms of a mortgage on prop
erty in Wayland containing clause
that Schlitz beer was 10 be exclusive
ly sold in the hotel. The supreme
court says that the Schlitz company
has an adequate remedy at law and
should not have sought the aid of a
court Of chancery. In other words it
may sue to recover the profits OF
which it has been deprived by the
breach of contract, but it cannot COM
pei the sale of it's special product by
injunction.

South Dakota is going to divorce IL
self from the divorce evil, at least to a
considerable extent. The people OF
that state have become disguised at
the ease and frequency with which d.
vorces are obtained there, and par
-ticularly displeased because of the
scandal involved in the manner in
which outsiders use the easy laws or
that locality in severing matrimonial
ties, and change has been insisted
upon. AS it stands now six months
residence gives;a person the right to
sue for divorce. The legislature has
passed a bill fixing the period of resi-
dence at one yNar in the state and
three months In the county in which
proceedings are Instituted. and pcovid-
ing that all hearings shall be in open
court. 1t is alleged, says Troy Times,
that this will put an en3 - the "di-
vorce industry in which 81 many out
sidefs have engaged, and that South
Dakota will cease TO be the Mecca
of unhappily mated individuals anx-
ioHs for quick release.

Lansing.-Strong influences are at
work creating sentiment against the
passage of any bill that will compel
the private banks of the state to come
under the supervision of the state
banking commissioner. In his in'
augural message Gov. Warner insist
ed very emphatically that n Dill gov
erning private banks should be enact
ed by the legislature, and he said re
Gently that JUS AS soon as railroad
matters are disposed of he would turn
his attention to the private banks. AS
vet no bill has been introduced, and
for some reason Senator Mckay, OF
Csro, who introduced the private
hank.ng bill last session, will not re-
introduce the measure again. $50
MANI private bankers do not want to
come under the state law" said he In
explanation, land it would be pretty
hard matter to draft a bill that would
9at.asy them all. Speaking to the
ps,nt, they should be, OF course, but
1 understood that the governor want
ed the Lord bill, and / do not know
what l vii do" Representative Lord
tried to find a middle course by in
PRODUCING bin which reduces the
capitalization required Of state banks.
At present the lowest amount is $780,
coo and the Lord bill fixes $4,000 for
villages under 1000 population and
$4,000 in villages Of not over $500.
His argument is that more state
banks will be incorporated when less
capital is required, and that therefore
the private banks will have less rea-
son for existence. There are some
400 private banks in the state, all abb
solutely independent Of state super
vision, and Lord admits that his bill
In no way touches them directly. II
do not believe" he said, that the
Mckay bill lis constitutional, for the
reason that private banks are not the
creatures of the legislature, and we
would have no more right to super
wise them than We would to supervise
butcher shops. A bill can be drafted
to get at them, and If some one else
does not take up the matter, may do
so. The only feasible way would be
for the legislature to prohibit any
firm from using the words bank or
banking on signs or stationery, and
provide heavy penalty for any VIC
he.lon. This would effectually drive
the private banks out of existence Oh
force them to incorporate as state
banks. believe that the legislature
should take action"

Affects Western Michigan.

Six good-sized cities, Grand Rapids,
Muskegon, Kalamazoo, Baltic Creek,
Jackson and Lansing, many smaller
cities like Grand Haven, Holland,
Ionia, Grand Ledge, Marshall, Ale
gan, Albion and others, and practical
ly every county in western Michigan
are affected by the terms of Act No.
AIS of the session laws of 1905. This
act grants the same powers to cleo
trio power companies that have been
held by telephone companies since
1883, namely, the right TO enter the
streets of any village, town, city or
township without asking for fran
chise. The only way to regulate them
is through 3,:e police power by the ex-
ercise of which the governing boards
of these corporations may make "rea-
sonable" rules regarding the places
where poles may be set, though they
are by no means granted ptwer to
keep them out altogether. Wayne
county is exempted from the biz, but
the yest Of the state comes und,r its
provisions. However, it Is the ives 'ern
part of the state thai is the most tn
terested in it at this time.

Concern.my Cats.
EAST JORDAN,

At the present time the most popu-
lar and fashionable variety is the An
CORA or Persian, long-haired cat
and blues and silvers claim the dis
tinction of having the largest num-
Der of breeders aE6 admirera The
notoriety of this particular breed or
Cat, commonly, is chiefly due 70 the
difficulty that has been experienced in
the production of a perfect specimen,
says Home Magazine. These cats
should be without any bars or stripes,
which constitute tho chief beauty Of
the tabby breeds. The AngorGs or
Persians are large sn6 finely furred,
having splendid loEg coats, with head
almost buried in fur and ruff, and
fine spreading tails. The blue Per.
sian has orange eyes--the white, blue
eyes, Black, white, cream, orange
and tprtoise-shell Angoras all have
their special admirers, and classes ara
provided for each Of these less popu-
Ear breeds nowadays. Smoke Persians
claim more than "a passing mention,
for they are extremely quaint ana
beautiful, with their dark outer fur
and white under coats, pale gray frills
and black faces.

Talk over Legislation.

Gov. Warner had a conference with
Speaker Whelan and several Of the
house members who are chairmen o.
committees to talk over legislative
matters that are pending. The session
Is now three months old and practical
~ no general legislation has been en-
acted. Not an important bill has
been taken up in the house for discus
sion, and the governor, knowing that
every effort is being made to delay
matters by interested parties, is anxi.
Gus that there should be no rAo"e de-
lay. The proposed organization @? the
farmers OF the legislature di6 I.o5
quite materialize. Some Of tee fGIm-
ers got together in the executive par
lors and discussed the equality of tax
alton, the necessity Of keeping down
appropriations and the advantages of
standing together like the city fel-
iers DO" 1t is not likely that any
formal organization will be effected,
but the "tillers" of the soil will get
together as occasion demands.

BANK ROBBED.
Safe Blowers Work Hanover, Startling
the VILLAGE.


A gang of safe-blowers robbed the
Farmers & Merchants bank in Han
over at o'clock Friday morn
ing. getting away with about
$1,000 and destroying $500 more.
The robbers broke in the front
door and went to work on the
triple doors of the vault. Two eXplos-
ions of ritro-glycerin wrecked the TWO
outer doors, but they were unable 10
get into the inner vault, where there
was a large sum of money. Inc eA-
plosion aroused nearly the entire VII
lage, but the robbers got away before
anyone ventured upon the street. ana
it was not certain in which direction
they escaped, although it was thought
they walked to Spring Harbor and
caught the Michigan Central train
from Chicago. The authorities at
Jackson were notified and warning
was sent to all the towns along the
Michigan Central and Lake Shore
roads. Tho bank building is a Two
story brick, the upper floor being va
cant. The building is so badly wrecked
by the explosions that it will have TO
be practically rebuilte The front door
is blown out and the side walls are
cracked and portion of the safe door
was blown through the ceiling into the
rooms above.
Three men are in jail in Ann Arbor
suspected of being the men who broke
into the bank at Hanover. Jackson
county. They were registered as
Frank Murphy and Martin, Vannocken,
each aged 81, of Battle Creek, AND
John Williamson, aged 26, colored, OIL
Indiana. They will be held for the
Jackson authorities.
When the two white men and the
negro saw the officers they jumped
of the train and ran east. Deputy
Kelsey called for them to stop. but
they kept on running. Then he shot in
the air as a warning and still they
kept on running. Then the officer sent
a bullet between two of them. Van
nocken stopped and gave himself up
The colored man said after he was
brought to jail: Good Lawd, wher
dat bullet brushed by my ear couldn' I
do puthin' but run"

Lost an Ear.

Luke Manning, of Grand Rapids, was
the victim of most peculiar and pain
full accident Saturday morning. He
went TO his barn to take care of his
horses, and when he entered the stall
he found one lying down. AS he
passed between the two, one of them
reached out and bit off his ear and
dropped it on the ground. Manning
quickly picked it up and rushed for
the doctor, holding the severed mem
Der in his hand. The ear was taken
off as clearly as it would have been
if an operation had been done with
a surgeons knife. An attempt is be-
ing made to graft it TO his head again

EXAMINED BY
-''''''''-' JEROME.
THAW. CROSS EXAMINED WITT
RESULTS FAVORABLE TO
HIMSELF.
EXAMINATION NOT HARD.
Work of the Commission Not Finished
as Jerome's Experts Are to 81
Heard.
On the Stand Three Hours.


The examination Of Harry X. Thaw
by the commission which is to decide
whether or not he is now able to ra-
tionally advise with his counsel, was
finished Thaw was on the stand for
over three hours and during that>th@e
he was not only questioned by the
members of the commission, but by
District Attorney Jerome. AS on
Thursday, Thaw's examination was IN
private, only the three commissioners,
Dan Mcclure, Peter b. Olney and DR..
Putzel, District Attorney Jerome, his
assistant, Mr.. Caravan, the lawyers for
the defense and officers of the court,
being present.
From what copE be learned from
those who atteAed Thaw's private
examination, he Went through the or
deal very well. Even Mr.. Jerome's
cross-examination, which lasted about
three-Quarters of an hour, did not hurt
Thaw to any extent 1t was not ex-
pected that the commission would al
low Mr.. Jerome TO get at Thaw, and
it had been limited that IL he did, Thaw
would appear in a very different light
before the commission.
AS it turned out. 1t was said that
Thaw carried himself well and showed
little OF no indication that he was not
possessed cS his mental faculties. at
least so far as anything could be
judged from his answers.
Mr.. Jerome's examination was NOT
a severe one He did not go at Thew,
aggressively or in way to anger him
or make him lose his temper. He stood
very close TO Thaw and the examine
ton was carried on in something Of AZ
conversational tone. Thaw showed no
bitterness towards Mr.. Jerome, nor re-
scented anything he did or any ques-
tons he asked.
For one thing, Mr.. Jerome was not
allowed to ask Thaw anything about
delusions he had at the time he killed
White. He was also barred from in
curing into Thaw's belief that there
was a conspiracy on the part of the
district attorney and influential friends
of White 10 railroad him to an insane
asylum. The commission ruled that it
had nothing to do with Thaw's c4ndi-
ton at the time he killed White.N

Tit at Railroad Hearing.

A lively tilt between Railroad Com.
missioner Glasgow and F. w. Stevens,
general counsel for the Pere Mar
quette, enlivened the concluding hear
ing on the two-cent fare bill before
the senate railroad committee. Mr..
Stevens made a strong argument
against the fiat rate on the ground
that conditions in Michigan are such
as to make it impossible either from
a car mile or track mile standpoint
to earn enough on a two-cent basis to
make the running of trains anywhere
near profitable. He talked for over
an hour and covered the railroad
viewpoint very thoroughly. Commits
sioner Glasgow made some very point
ed remarks, saying that delay had be-
come a habit with the railroads and
that it was not clear TO him whether
the railroads wanted more time TO get
to the facts or get TO the members or
the committee. This riled Stevens
who said that it grieved him that the
commissioner should impugn the mo-
tives of the railroads or suggest that
they were juggling figures. He chal-
lenged the right Of the commissioner
to use his position, which he said was
semi-judicial, to advocate the passage
OF any bill. Glasgow thought that
Stevens was too sensitive, and he sub
matted a mass of data to show that
two-cent fares have operated to the
advantage of railroads in other st
1t is expected that the committee
will report out some bills this week,
but the members may be divided.

FEDERAL CONTROL.
Zimmerman Says He Fears Hostile
Legislation.

Eugene Zimmerman, president OF
the Inn Arbor and the Detroit, Toledo

in favor of federal control of the rail
roads. He views with some alarm
the present wave06f hostile legislation
which is being enacted in various
