Third Place Vacant.

Finding itself still deadlocked, the
ninth senatorial district convention TO
choose a third Republican nominee for
delegate to the constitutional conven-
ton decided to let the third place &C
by default.
The first and last ballot stood AZ.
teen for A. S. Frost, OF Kalamazoo.
and fifteen for DeLos Fall, Of Albion,
Calhoun county. Seeing no show for
changing the complexion OF the con-
vention, and after holding an execu-
tive session with reporters barred. the
convention adjourned indefinitely
Kalamazoo trusts in its ability to force
the senatorial district committee to
appoint the third nominee, and Cal
houn is trusting in it's ability to pre-
vent this and elect a Democrat, w. III.
Porter, OF Marshall. The delegates
have been in deadlock all told seven
days and three nights Nominations
OF Edwin c. Nichols. Calhoun, and w.

GIFT NOT ALL A GIFT.
Generosity That Was Purely the Re-
suit of Accident.

A missionary bishop told this story
about f. Marion Crawford, the famous
novelist:
"Mr. Crawford went to school," he
said, lin Concord, and one day he was
taken to call at a Concord clergy
mans.
"The clergyman had a missionary
box on his drawing room table. and,
time hanging heavily on the boy
hands, he amused himself with try
ing whether a silver dollar-it was
all the money he had in the world,
and he had converted 1t into that gi-
gantic coin for safety-would go into
the slit in the box's TOP.
1T was a close fl. out unfortunate
ly it did go, and the. coin slipped out
of the embryo authors fingers. There
was a terrible crash of silver falling
among the coppers-and then the boy,
as the novelists say, knew no more.
when he came to himself he found
the clergyman and his family in rap
lures over his generosity"

CHILDREN TORTURED.
Girl Had Running Sores from Eczema
Boy Tortured by Poison Oak
Both Cured by Cuticura.

Last year, after having my little
girl treated by very prominent ply
stefan for an obstinate case of eczema,
/ resorted to the Cuticura Remedies,
and was so well pleased with the al
most instantaneous relief afforded that
we discarded the physicians prescrip-
ton and relied entirely on the Cuti-
cura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Gu
ticura Pills. When we commenced
with the Cuticura Remedies her feet
and limbs were covered with running
sores. In about six weeks we had her
completely well, and there has been
no recurrence of the trouble.
'In July of this year little boy in
our family poisoned his hands and
arms with poison oak, and in twenty
four hours his hands and arms were a
mass of torturing sores. We used
only the Cuticura Remedies, and in
about three weeks his hands and arms
healed up. Mrs. Lizzie Vincent Thomas,

A Good Work.

A systematic effort is to be made by
the bureau of immigration to put an
end to what is popularity known as
the white slave traffic" which, 1t is
asserted, has been conducted in cities
on the Atlantic seaboard for a long
time. Miss Helen NJ. Bulls has been
appointed an immigration inspector to
question immigrants when they ar
rive at New York. Commissioner
Watchorn, at Ellis Island, says many
women of non-English speaking races

poses, and invariably avoid detection
because of the thorough coaching they
receive prior to embarkation. Mr..

Suspect Foul Play.

Under circumstances so mysterious
that the local detectives and members
of the Fenton police department have
started a searching investigation, Leon
s. Algeo, a wealthy wholesale produce
dealer of FentOn, was found, almost
dead in a gas filled room in the Ho-
tel Winkler, Detroit, early Saturday
morning. He was apparently dead
when found by the proprietor, Charles
Winkler, and it was thought that the
unconscious man had blown out the
gas with suicidal intent. Algeo had
drawn 81 300 from a Detroit bank and
his money was missing when he was
discovered to be in a state of coma.
Nearby the bed was a note book, in
which, under date of August 30, was
the following significant entry:
Made good strike yesterday"
The police who are assigned to the
case are of the opinion that Algeo had
taken some deadly poison or that it
had been given to him during his
sightseeing trips through the city
Algeo came TO Detroit several days
ago, and has been registered at the
Winkler every night, with the excep-
ton of two. He seemed prosperous, as
he exhibited considerable money about
the hotel.

Expresses No Sorrow.

Possessed of a religious mania,
which made him believe that it was
necessary TO make a flesh Offering in
atonement for his sins, Albert Stem
melen, aged go a Detroit bookkeeper,
threw his. 2-year-old daughter Helen
into the Detroit river from the Belle
Isle bridge Tuesday evening just at
dusk. Then he gave himself up to
the police, telling his story without a
trace of agitation or regret. declaring:
II threw my child from the Belle
Isle bridge. / gave her to God to atone
for my sins. want to give myself up
to the police"
Stemmelen was married seven years
ago. There were two children besides
little Helen; owen, aged 5, and 10
seph, aged 3. So far as known there
has never been a particle of domestic
trouble and he idolized his children.
The first real intimation of the
breaking OF Stemmelen's mind was
given 10 his Office associates Tuesday,
according to Col. William S. Greene,
managing trustee of the W. A. Wesson
estate, in the Office of whom Stem
melen was employed.
Stemmelen was very ambitious. and
anxious to get ahead in the world. He
worked necessarily. He never rested.
From morning till night he shaved his
life away. He never even took the
time to read the papers. This over
work finally unbalanced his mind For
the past three months he became a
pronounced neurothenic. Ii developed
religious mania. The last three weeks
he was badly frightened and excited by
dreams of murder, violence, OF big dis
asters. He would get up at night trem
bling with excitement and pray 10 find
rest. Then he has been suffering with
severe headaches drawing head
aches as he described them, and al
this time a strange feeling Of personal
shortcomings took possession or him
He considered himself hypocrite. The
elimination came when he threw the
child into the river.
