Minister Gets $4,000

A preachers path is sometimes strewn
with roses. Rev. Russell H. Bready, the
M E. minister stationed at Lowell, has
fallen heir to $4,000. The money comes
from the estate of an uncle who recently
died in Kansas, leaving 100000 to be
divided among the Rev. Russell H. Bready
and his three children. The Breadys have
had knowledge OF the fortune for several
months but the extent of it was uncertain.
Word was received from Kansas last
week that the total would reach the
amount above named or perhaps more.

SAD ACCIDENT
Mrs. Bay Emory Accidentally shot by
Her Husband AT Orleans


Mrs. Bay Emory of Orleans received a
ball from % calibre rifle Sunday even
ing which passed through her shoulder
and into her spine, paralyzing her limbs.
Mr.. Emory had been out hunting and on
coming home in the evening laid his gun
on the table with the muzzle pointing
toward the door of a bedroom where his
wife was getting ready for church. He
was taking the cartridges from his gun
and supposed he had them all out. He
was in the kitchen and his wife had gone
into the bedroom unbeknown to him.
The gun exploded and the ball entered her
shoulder below the neck, taking down.
ward course and lodging deep in the spine.
1t is wonder that she was not killed in
stanty, as she was evidently STOPPING
over when the bullet struck her. The
following day she was taken to Ann Ar
Dor and it is hoped that the ball will be
located and removed.
Mrs. Emory is a daughter of Mrs.
Sutherland. Mr.. Emory is almost dis
tracted over the unfortunate occurrence.

THE CASE DROPPED
Swindle Charge Against Ernest Divine

Comes TO Naught
The case against Ernest Divine Of Chi
caRo. former Belding boy, son Of the
late M. B. Divine. charged with swindling
a Boston broker out of $4,000. has been
dismissed and the matter dropped, as it
was established it would be impossible to
convict him. The Portland Observer says:
1T cost Mr.. Divine we'll over a thousand
dollars to fight his way out Of the trouble
but that is small matter compared with
what it would have cost had he been taken
back to the east for trial. He walked out
Of the court room Saturday and returned
to his home, while Chester Divine and
Will Hutchinson took the train for Portland,
after telegraphing the news to Divine's
friends here.
"Divine was defended by Edward Morris,
the famous negro lawyer of Chicago, and
his selection came about in peculiar way.
When Will Hutchinson reached the city
after Divine's arrest he asked the advice
OF three prominent men in Chicago and.
each one advised him to secure the colored
man.
There were three hearings in court.
On Saturday the attorneys for the prose-
cution asked for private conversation
with the Judge. They we're out OF court
for half an hour and when they returned
the states attorney arose and said that
he was convinced Divine could not be
convicted of the charge if he was taken
back to Boston. The Judge at once dis
missed the $4,000 bond under which he
had been held and Divine was free man.
