We had a kid working for us
couple Of weeks and the boys sent
him out on foolish errands such as
only green kid would bite on. One
day they sent him to the tailors for
some cross-eyed needles, another day
to the harness shop for some strap
oil, and another time to the tin shop
for pair of circle shears. The last
time he was sent out he came
through with the. goods-he actually
brought back those circle shears
(from the tin shop) and the laugh
was on Jerry. our stove man. That
kid was too smart for the job and
he didn't stop long with us. You'll
find out that you're never on any
fools errand when you come to us
for anything in our line, because we
are accommodating. That is the way
this business was built up. First,
we have the goods you want; then
we have them when you want them;
and, finally, we guarantee them to
be right. We make a speciality of
carrying many articles that are sell
dom called for, and lots of people
express surprise that we are so we'll
equipped with the very things they
expected to have to go to st. Paul
Or Chicago to get hold of. It's the
unexpected that happens, sometimes,
you know.

Il have a friend" he said, "who
has one queer habit. This habit has
its strongest influence on special days
when he covers what he calls the
cocktail route. By that he means
starting down on Fifth avenue about
Twenty-third street and working by
easy drink stages up to about Fifty
ninth street.
HE walks along the avenue in
contemplation until he sees some par
ticularly proud person seated in mo-
tor car or carriage coming toward
him. Then he simply stares until he
gets the persons eye and then bows.
You know how people are. Even II
that man who is riding is cocksure
he doesn't know the person on the
sidewalk he'll bow instinctively. II
he isn't absolutely sure he'll bow for
fear of hurting the feelings Of some
one whose face and name have es.

The possibility of premature buriai
is recognized as a real danger, by the
New York Sun, and authenticated In
stances of it are on record in suffi-
cient number to operate powerfully on
the popular imagination. None Of the
tests provided for in the bill is of such
a nature as to arouse the opposition
of surviving kinsmen or friends. 1t
seems, indeed, highly proper enact
ment. Were such a law enforced in
any state and only one premature bur-
ial prevented by its operation similar
statutes would be found soon on the
books of every state. The importance
of the subject is so great that the
neglect with which it has been treated
in this country is surprising.

1t is to be hoped, suggests the Bos-
ton Globe, that if benches replace the
desks and chairs in the national house
of representatives in the style Of the
English house of commons. the Eng

also be adopted. The members OF con-
gress will be much less likely to talk
through them If they are left out In

The immigrants who come to estab
lish a home and identify themselves
with the country are, of course, very
much more desirable than the immi-
grants who come merely to dispose OF
their commodity of labor, but even the
latter are not unwelcome, asserts the
Duluth News-Tribune. They made up
no inconsiderable fraction of those
who have been pouring into the coun.
try at the rate of more than million
a year for some time past.

We are permitted to use the follow
ing extracts from letter written by a
prominent Saginaw business man to @.
E. Rigley, Jr., of this city:
"Of all the places in the Eighth dis
trict your city has been the most favor.
ed since MIR. Fordney has been congress
man, and know he feels deeply the
opposition that exists. He certainly
has no axe to grind, and his present
fight is being waged to help the bust
ness men of Owosso and the farmers of
Shiawassee, as much as to help these
same citizens in other parts of the dis
trict. He knows what the sugar indus
try amounts to, as WELL if rot better
than any other man in the district, and
inasmuch as his prediction as to the
disadvantageous results which would
follow the enactment of the jughand-
led Cuban reciprocity treaty were more
than verified, it seems to me the people
should rely upon him now. There is
nothing theoretical about Mr.. Fordney.
He is practical business man and goes
to the very bottom of these questions
and whether a man looks at the situa-
ton from either business or a politi.
cal standpoint, it appears to me that
Mr.. Fordney is absolutely right, and
if people like those of Owosso and Shia-
wassee will not stand by a man like
Mr.. Fordney, there is really little or no
incentive for man studying out these
problems nor is there much encourage
ment for practical man remaining in
politics. If man must jump into
bandwagon because it happens to pass
his way, we are really in sad condi
ton. If man must shape his mind
to fit situations, the conditions are even
worse, and if man cannot fearlessly,
openly and honestly fight for what he
thinks best for his constituents then
we are at our worst. u 4 Remember
that in its history Michigan has had
but three men on the ways and means
committee and that the eighth district
now owns one of the three. How much
more power can congressman gain in
five terms, or isn't it powerful con-
gresham that some people want?"
Several of the business men of the
city who signed the call for the organi-
cation of Taft club, have expressed
views similar to the above to the writer
within the past week and have stated
that as far as their work and influence
would go it should be given to the
election of delegation to the district
which would vote for the
election of Cong. Fordney as dele
gate to the national convention.

LOOKED LIKE ROBBERY
Hand Picked and Polished Beans Of
fered for Sale Created Suspi-
cion-Arrests Follow.

George Blanchard of Owosso, and
Ray Depew, who has also lived here a
short time, are under arrest on account
of bean deal which they were engag
ed in Saturday. Blanchard hired Dray.
man Stanton to draw load to Corunna
which he said had been on farmer
wagon which had broken down. Stan
ton drove to barn near the O. & G.. E.
power house and 25 bags of beans were
loaded OH and the alleged farmer went
with Stanton to the Green elevator in
Corunna to dispose of his beans. Mr..
Muzzy, in charge of the mill, noticed
that the beans were all in the same
kind of bags, were all the same weight,
the beans were hand picked and polish
ed as though prepared at an elevator
for shipment. He became suspicious
and notified Mr.. Green. who found the
beans were evidently polished by pro-
cess used only at the Barrett Co. elevat-
or in Owosso and telephoned Mr.. Bar
rett who went to Corunna and identified
the beans as property stolen from his
place of business The alleged farmer
giving the name of Ellis and claiming
to live south of Corunna) made great
objection and secured an advance on
the beans sufficient to pay the drayman
He returned to Owosso and was to re-
turn to Corunna and get the balance of
his pay for the beans, about 500, Mon
day morning, but failed to appear and
was brought back from Elsie by Deputy
Sheriff Fred Brown, Tuesday. c. II.
Barrett swore out warrant for the
arrest of the pair and Blanchard was
Immediately locked up, . as he is
thought to have been the engineer of
the deal.
Blanchard was given a hearing Mon
day and his examination set for March
10th with bail fixed at $1,000 Blanch-
ards reputation is such that the charge
against him is easily believed. He has
wife and three small children in poor
circumstances. A shortage of seven
bags of beans in shipment from st.
Johns not long ago may also be traced
to Blanchard as he is alleged to have
sold that number at the Kerby elevator.

Court Notes.

Ed. and Harry Livingston of Pitts
burg, are serving sentences in the De-
troit house of correction, having been
sentenced by Justice Patched of Durand,
as disorderlies.
The damage suit of Henry Reason vs..
the Grand Trunk railway has been put
over the term to give the plaintiff time
to amend his plea. Reason has sued
the company for damages on account
of the non arrival of his household goods
at their destination in time to allow
him to enter hotel business which he
had engaged to do at certain time and
for injury to the goods
Harry Captain, of the Owosso Candy
Kitchen, won the suit commenced
against him for $22 on notes by the
Continental Jewelry Company of Cleve-
land. Justice F. H. Rush in the mu-
nicipal court decided that the company
had misrepresented the goods sold
Captain.
The case of Roe Montfort, of
Corunna, against Irving Wing of Nor
rice, for damages for malicious prose-
cution was decided in favor of Wing in

the guilty party.

The Duquesne National Bank of Pitts
burg, Pa. was given judgment of

against &. B. and w. d. Garrison of
Vernon, on a note endorsed by w. d.

that w. ID. Garrison was not competent,
on account Of extreme age, to transact
business at the time he signed the note.
John Perdie was found guilty in the i
Circuit Court Tuesday of stealing a
watch and overcoat from Frank Martin |
Of Lennon, while the latter was asleep |
in the depot at Durand. The sheriff |
