Mrs. Catherine Young Dead.

Mrs. Catherine Young, for 68
New Haven township, and one Of the
best known pioneers of the county,
is dead at her home at the age of 80.
Mrs. Young had been in poor health
for years, but had been confined to
her bed only one month. General
infirmities caused her demise.
Mrs. Young was born in Rockland
county, New York and came to
Michigan in 1862, with her husband
Daniel Young. They settled in
New Haven township, taking up 100
acres of land, and there Mr.. Young
spent the remainder of his days,
dying three years ago.
During the 6S years that she had
lived on the farm, Mrs. Young had
never gone farther away than St.
Charles. Thirty years ago when she
visited her son, S. j. Young in St.
Charles. Since that she had not left
the county.
Mrs. Young will be remembered
by the Older settlers as a woman
who gave freely of her time and en-
ergy in her younger days in nursing
the sick, often times driving many
miles to care for a suffering friend.
III those days when there was no
doctor within several miles, Mrs.
Young took the place of a physician
in many cases and has been given
credit for saving number of lives.
The deceased was a woman of
strong Christian convictions and had
always lead an exemplary life. She
possessed great will power and her
relatives are Of the opinion that she
kept her up and prolonged her life.
The funeral was held Wednes-
day morning at 1920 from the
home and 1880 from the New Hav-
en- Wesleyan church, of which Mrs.
Young was a charter member. Rev.
H. d. Cheney will officiate. Burial
will take place In New Haven GEM
etery.

and Arthur Hoisington secretary
with Mrs. Winifred Hoisington as

Cannon, ShOrn of Half His Power. Yet
Speaker of the H0use-Party Whip
Drove Insurgents Into Line

Washington. D. G, March 20.-Jo-
seph Gurney Cannon of Danville, Ills,
is still speaker of the House of Rep
resentativeS. But he lost yesterday
the ancient prestige and weapon Of
that office when the allied repub blican
insurgents and democrats took from
him not only the Craftsmanship Of, but
even membership in the l-poWerful
committee on rules. the chief asset in
his stock Of power.
Amid scenes of widest disorder, for
like of which one must go back to the

This is what happened:
