Miss Hitchcock, of the Shoshone high
school, and H. P. Blodgett, who came
here early in the summer from Missouri,

one of the oldest railroad employees in
the United States, he having entered
the service Of the Northwestern road
in the early sos, and being still in its
employ, after filing various responsible
positions. He was in Chicago in very
early day-so early that II was then
Fort Dearborn. 1t was during the
Black Hawk war that his parents lived
about IS miles from Fort Dearborn. An
Indian whom they had befriended gave
them warning of the outbreak. and they
started for the fort. During the night
baby A. T. Blodgett was born. Ames-
senger was sent in to the fort, and the
soldiers came out with a litter on which
they carried the mother and babe 10
safety. Mr. Blodgett was afterwards
captain of the 96th Illinois infantry.
and was terribly wounded at Fort Don
elson, the wound leaving him all but an
invalid for the 45 years since that mo
mentus battle.

MICHIGAN CLUB
PLANS DINNER, JAN. &c

The new Michigan Republican club.
born last spring amid the popping OF
corks In Harmonic hall. Is to be re-
vived soon, after its long sleep.
The club will give banquet In De-
troit, Jan. 29, William Mckinley 8
birthday, and the officers Of the club
are now securing the country for effec-
tive speakers. II Is probable that Sen
ators William Alden Smith and Julius
Caesar Burrows will be among the
spell-binders. Truman II. Newberry.
secretary OF the navy, is another who
may be honored. although that Is not
so sure, from the makeup OF the club
directorate.
President.elect Taft will be sought
as the first attraction, and. II he can
not be secured, some member OF the
cabinet will be netted, in all probable
! ity, as the head-liner.
The Michigan club. which started
with the county, city and precinct
committeeman as the rank and file OF
its membership. has definitely given
place as working organization the
more vigorous Wayne County club.
The function OF the Michigan club will
be to give an annual dinner at which
the real class OF the party will be
gathered together to hear key-notes
struck by native and imported ore
