Although Boyne City girls won over

second team was at Belaire there
was no one TO substitute in their
place.
The boys game was very rough

Second III. 5. Girls at Bellaire.

Although East Jordan girls lost at
Bellaire last Friday night much cred
it should be given TO their players.
This being their first outside game
they have no reason to feel discour-
aged for b9ing defeated. During the
first half the two scores very nearly
balanced, Bellaire having only Two
points the start of East Jordan at the
end But in the second half, East Jor-
dams girls not being accustomed to
playing were tired and therefor were
unable TO do as good work as in the
first half. The final score was l6 To s
in Bellaire's favor.

PLANS FOR 4TH WILL BE
MADE AT MEETING TONIGHT

a mass meeting will be held at All
meek tonight to discuss plans for an
old time Fourth o July celebration. A
committee of five will be appointed to
arrange the details and appoint sub
committees for the celebration of the
biggest Fourth" ever seen i'm the VII
lage. Residents are enthusiastic, and
giving all possible assistance toward
making the days observance a sue
cess.
At the meeting held last Friday
night a soliciting comittee was APP
pointed, and this committee has so far
succeeded in getting subscriptions for
500, and much more is expected. This
money will go toward paying for ex-
penses and prizes for athletic con-
tests. There will be plenty of sports
and II is probable that baseball
game will be played.
Practically the whole celebration
will DE held In the strip of land be-
tween Ahmeek and the street car
track. This space has been undergo
ing a cleaning up process for the last
few months, through the efforts of the
residents of Ahmeek, and the place is
much improved. A team OF horses
and five men are at work on this
ground and are making great advances
In clearing away brush and stumps.
A dancing pavilion will be built
among the trees and a band will fur
nish music for the dancers all day.

Houghton Department
TELEPHONE SOUTH 80
ANTI-TUBERCULOSIS OFFICE
MAY BE MOVED TO CALUMET

There is decided possibility that
the main office of the Houghton Coun-
~ Anti Tuberculosis society may be
removed from Houghton to Calumet.
This will probably be definitely decid-
ed at melting called by DR..
L. L. Hubbard president OF the society,
to be held at the office Of the society
on Sheldon street tonight. DIR. Hub
bard has just returned to Houghton
after being east for about a week and
the calling OF the meeting was about
the first thing he did upon arriving in
the village.
The reports of Miss Caroline Ehl-
ert the visiting nurse of the society,
show that the majority of the cases
she has found i'm her work and is now
of the county and it is partly for the
purpose of saving her time and the
expense of travelling so much that this
change is contemplated. 1t is the be-
lief of the leaders of the work of the
society that Miss Ehlert will be able
TO accomplish more good If her head
quarters are shifted to Calumet. The
society has an option upon suite of
rooms i'm the building that contains
the headquarters OF the Associated
Charities of that place and it is
thought that the location of the anti
tuberculosis office there would be
doubly beneficial as the work of Miss
Ehlert and that OF Miss Winnifred
Salisbury general secretary of the AS
ISOLATED Charities, is, TO some extent
along the same line and they could
be assisting each other, instead of
working to cross purposes as they
have sometimes found to be the case.
II is probable that these rooms in
Calumet viii be fitted up as a dispen
sary and that this will be the first of
series OF dispensaries for the treat
ment and care of the patients on the
books of the society, who are able to
come TO the dispensary for this treat
ment, which is not like that generally
ulSltlStu 1T a ulSpthsdiSs bui NNh-
sists more OF advising the victim of
the white plague how to care for HIM
self. Another purpose Of the dispen-
sary is to keep accurate records of
each case handled by the society and
the final disposition of these cases.
Miss Ehlert suggested the establish
ment of the dispensary in each inn
portant center of the county after
she had been at work here about a
month and found how extensive is the
field and how widely separated are the
centers of population.

SAFE AND SANE FOURTH
Houehton Not Even to Have Promised
Wrestlers and Band Concerto

The Fourth of July i'm Houghton this
year viii. in all probability. be very
much sane and safe. The people of
Hancock early decided that there
would be a big celebration I'm that
city and. while the Houghton people
were talking about celebration. the
Hancock people appointed their COM
mittees and got busy arranging for
their celebration.
Seeing this. the Houghton business
men were willing to step aside in ia
vor of their brother businessmen
across the lake and IL was determined
that Houghton should not hold big
celebration but would have a few
wrestling matches at the Amphidrome
and some band concerts upon SHIELD
en- street. Now il is found that nearly
all the good wrestlers are dated up
for the Fourth in other places. i'm and
out of the copper country, so the
committee has decided that Houghton
will do nothing in the way of celebrat-
ing this year.

NAPOLEON q. eRaWARD.

Jacksonville, Fla, June 1.-THE way
in which Napoleon b. Braward won the
nomination at the primaries for Unit
ed States senate over Senator Taliaf-
erro is still the principal topic of po-
litical discussion throughout the state
While il was conceded that he had a
strong showing, it was thought that
Senator Taliaferro would be able to
gain the primaries. The nomination
practically amounts TO election.
In 1904 he was elected governor of
Florida, which office he held until sue
ceeded by Albert w. Gilchrist, the
present incumbent. Braward is SELF
made man, just past middle life. He
was born and reared on farm and
his education was obtained at the
country schools. At the age of II he
lost both parents and had To face the
world alone. He began work in log
camp for an uncle. Later he was
steamboat roustabout, cod fisherman
on Grand Banks and seaman on sail
ing vessels and sailing boats. He
worked his way up until before his
majority he was bar pilot on st Johns
bar, Florida. From this he became
Joint owner of a steamboat plying be-
tween Mayport and Palatka, Fla. He
is now engaged in steamboat business
and in the towing and wrecking bust
ness at Jacksonville, Key West and
Tampa.
His public career began as sheriff of
Duval county. In 1900 he entered the
Florida state legislature and four years
later was elected governor of the state.
In thus honoring one of her sons Flor
ida has paid tribute to a strong man,
who has won his spurs by dint of toll.
