A Fine Race Horse.

A. +. Jackson won first money in
the 2:30 class in three straight heats
with his PAGER Starlight at the Croswell
races last week. In the drawing for
position Starlight got third, and when
the word "go' was given, Starlight was
pocketed in a bunch of six horses, and
Mr.. Jackson figured that If he came
under the wire fourth, it would be
about all he could do. Although Star
light was suffering with the distemper
and was not in the best of condition,
he made dash outside the bunch and
showed his excellent breeding and
speed by passing under the wire in the
lead. The next two heats were easier.
Mr.. Jackson is at Sandusky this week,
and from there he will go to Inlay

1t becomes our sad duty this week to
chronicle the death of a beloved wife
and mother, in the person of Mrs.
Lewis Cady, whose sickness was of
such short duration that death came
with a terrible shock to the family, who
only brief eight days before had seen
the loved one moving amongst them
in the performance of her usual duties.
The disease to which she succumbed
was of the nature of cerebro spinal
meningitis and death occurred Thurs
day at her home on Second street at
four am, after long period of uncon-
sciousness.
The funeral services will be held on
Sunday at pm. from the Mechanic
street Church of Christ, of which
church she was a faithful and consist
ent member Elder ID. Mccall will
preach the sermon. Interment will
take place in the family lot at Elm
wood.
Phoebe Lavley was born April lst
1856, in Marine City. She was married
to Lewis Cady i'm 1871 and for 38
years have their lives flowed together
smoothly and happily. Five children
were born to them, only two now liv-
ing Lizzie, Mrs. +. Weldon and Flor
ence, Mrs. Harry White.
Deceased was 53 years and D months
of age. She was thoroughly devoted to
her home and family, filling her life
with home and church duties, and was
kind friend and neighbor. The COM
munity sympathizes with Mr.. Cady and
his daughter in their bereavement.

PRESIDENTS ALMA MATTERS

William Howard Taft in succeeding his great
and good friend Theodore Roosevelt as chief
executive of the nation, is the first son of Old
Eli to obtain the honor. The record for train
ing presidents is divided evenly between the
first and second colleges established on Ameri-
can soil, Harvard, and William and Mary, that
venerable Virginia seat of learning, founded
at Williamsburg Va. in 1893. Harvard be-
slowed degrees on the two Adamses, on Theo-
dore Roosevelt and trained Rutherford b.
Hayes in the law. William and Mary was the
alma mater of Thomas Jefferson. of James
Monroe and of John Tyler and two other presi-
dents, James Madison and Zachary Taylor.

and the race promises to become very

The vice-presidency of Mexico was
created by an amendment to the con-
stitution six years ago, and Ramon
Corral was the first man elected TO

for the place by President Diaz. who

The nomination of Gen. Reyes for
vice-president has not been done in
the usual convention form. He has
been put up for the Office by means of
numerously signed petitions by his
friends and admirers all over the
country. 1t was originally planned
that he was to be candidate for
president, but when Diaz reconsidered
his intention of not again being a
candidate for the high office, it was
decided that Reyes should make the
race against Corral for vice-president.
The anti-American issue promises
to become largely involved in this

Mr. Corral, as vice-president, per
