A Sudden Summons

William +. Crystler, aged about 30
years, died suddenly at his home on
the North Side, Tuesday evening about
l0:45 as a result of heart failure. He
had been feeling poorly for some time
past, especially so for the past week
but nothing dangerous was thought Of
He sat up Tuesday evening for some
time and when he retired seemed TO be
feeling considerably better. About
1880 he was stricken with heart trouble
and died before his wife could summon
assistance.
Deceased leaves a wife and five chill
dren TO mourn his sudden departure,
Mrs. George Newington of Saginaw,
Mrs. Herbert Nichols Of Flint, Will OF
Jackson, Frank or Lansing and Alvin
who lived ut home.
Arrangements for the funeral have
not yet been completed as we go to
press, owing to inability TO reach Will
at Jackson.

Legislature Will Have Work

The next state legislature will have
some important legislation TO enact, a
number of present laws TO modify and
should take steps TO see that an addi-
ton is built TO the capitol building.
At the present time the state is paying
out large sums for rent and hardly a
department but that is badly crowded.
A few changes in the primary law
are necessary. One change very inn
perative is the date upon which the
filing of petitions close. II has got to
be made early to help in the working
of the law and some steps should be
taken TO have different or at least new
enrolment books with the names al
phabetically arranged. AS many of
these books are now, il is difficult
task to pick out and check the names.
Some phases of the liquor law will
probably be modified, as its working
is not entirely satisfactory, although
considered the best law of its kind the
Estate has ever had. Indications are
that the state Legislature will have a
strenuous time ahead during the FIST
few months of 1911. a
