PLENTY OF vENISON FOR
ELKS' BIG SPREAD TONIGHT

The Elks is a species of deer, and 10
eat portions of the carcasses OF other
specimens of the deer family might
seem like cannibalism. Nevertheless
the HANCOCK Elks are going to par
take of venison spread in the Elks
Temple this evening and 1t looks as
though there will be big crowd pres
ent to partake of the feast and ENJOY
other good things in the way or
speeches. songs and vaudeville stunts.
In DR.. Abrams has been secured an
ideal POSTMASTER, who is recognized
as a past master OF the art of grace
fully presiding over festive gatherings
of this nature. Some fine musical
talent has been secured and 1t is
stated that Messrs. Carroll and Vein
burg of the Alaskan company are
going to be present as guests OF the

WORKINCMAN TAKES ISSUE
With FORMER LOCAL PASTOR
Tells Rev. A. r. Johns of Flint, For
merIy Pastor Of Hancock M. e.
Church, That sour Wives Slave
While You Sleep"-Takes Issue With
Pastor on Sunday Theater Closing.

"Our wives slave while you sleep"
writes a man who signs himself
"Workingman" to Rev. A. r. Johns OF
the Court street M f. church. Rev.
Johns was formerly pastor OF the Han
cock NJ. e. church and is well known
here.
The anonymous letter from the
"Workingman" to Rev. Johns came as
result of the agitation to close the
Sunday theaters. which the ministers
want brought about. Continuing the
"Workingman" says: II want to ask
why preachers always oppose every
movement for the freedom of my class
and never are found on the side which
helps us. Why oppose Sunday pleas
ure? Sunday is made for man, not
man for Sunday. Why don't you start
n movement TO shorten our hours Of
work? No church concerns itself with
that. We, our wives and daughters,
arise before or a. M; they are made
slaves, preparing breakfast when you
still sleep. Why don't you say word
in opposition to 10 or IL hours work
when three or four would do and give
us time to improve our minds? Are
you afraid you would offend the rich
who compel us to work too long? You
mean well, no doubt, but you have to
learn much"

James Henderson, the proprietor of
the barber shop I'm the Scott Hotel.
whose sudden disappearance from
Hancock a month or so ago. caused
much excitement and interest, has at
last been heard from. A. postcard was
received yesterday by Mrs. Henderson
from her husband, postmarked at San
Antonio, Texas. Mr.. Henderson stated
that he was only stopping over there
for a short time, and would continue
travelling. II being uncertain where he
would stop.
Another postcard followed shortly
after the first and in this Mr.. Hen
derson gave instructions for the sale
Of the barber shop, which he had
conducted i'm the Scott Hotel since the
place was built about three years ago.
Since Mr.. Henderson went away, Roy
Heb has been managing the place for
Mrs. Henderson. who was in doubt as
to what disposition should be made of
II until her husband had been heard
from.
Both misslves were very brief, and
gave no particulars relative to the
reason for going away. From the fact
that the cards are dated at San An
tonic it appears as though Mr. Hen
derson had gone on down the Missis-
slppi valley after leaving st. Louis 70
which place he was traced by Under
Sheriff Sheridan. and where all trace
of him was then lost.
The receipt of some definite infor-
nation relative to the missing man Is
p great relief To Mrs. Henderson and
to the many friends of Mr.. Henderson
who had been very anxious about him,
and were at a loss to account for his
disappearance.

IL is said to be probable that at
the next meeting of the council, to be
held on Monday evening, December 6,
the matter of having better inspection
of new buildings and halls, in conform
ity with state laws, may be consider
ed. 1t is pointed out by a prominent
official that hitherto there has been
great laxity in this respect and that
n is time that something is done.
The statutes of the state of Mich
igan relating to the government of
cities, towns and villages requires that
no school, hall. church, theatre, or
place of public assemblage shall be
used until It has been inspected and
approved as to its fire escapes, exits
and safeguards by "A building com
mittee. This committee is to be
appointed by. the mayor and shall con-
sIst of three mechanics, architects or
other competent persons, and i'm town.
ships the supervisors shall constitute
such committee OF inspection. Dur
ing the past few years. 1t Is pointed
out. there have been erected In Han
cock a number of halls and schools
that have never been inspected or ap-
proved. but which are used regularly
as public meeting places. Should any
catastrophe happen in any of these
buildings as a result of faulty con-
structon, tho blame, it is claimed
would fall upon the city officials who
had failed to make a proper inspection
as required by law.
