The practical jokers in Panama who
thought 1t would be very funny to
start reports of coming earthquake
in that place, and who are said to
have scared at least one person to
death by these reports, belong to a
class with which, unfortunately, the
law cannot deal according to their
deserts. Considering the trouble they
have caused, there seems no good rea-
son why these practical jokers should
not be classed with criminals and a
penalty provided for their distorted
and dangerous sense of humor.

Troops Care Causes Kicks.

Attorney General Kuhn's decree
that Lapeer county must pay the ex-
pense of calling out state troops to
maintain quarantine about the home
for the feebleminded has caused a
storm of protest among the citizens
of the city.
The bone of contention seems to be
the fact that Lapeer county has no
more control over the home than
Marquette county. 1t is a state in
stitution and as such local citizens
feel that the state should bear the
expense of quartering the soldiers
The question of payment for caring
for the troops will come up at the
next meeting of the board of super.
visors, and a fight is expected
