Woman Held on Murder ch.ro.

AS result of the death of Laura
Case, of Deckerville, her sister Mary
Case Landon, is under arrest, charged
with murder.
Laura Case died under circum-
stances which prompted an investiga-
ton. A post norton examination was
held by three local physicians. and
showed that there was a fracture of
the skull which had undoubtedly been
been the cause of death. Immediately
upon the announcement of their find
ings warrant was issued charging
Mrs. Landon with murder.
On December 10 there was a quarrel
in the Case household during which, ii
is alleged. Mrs. Landon struck Laura
over the head with a nursing bottle.
Ever since then the girl had com
planned of pains In her head.
Mrs. Landon was formerly an in
mate OF the insane asylum at Pontiac,
but was released three years ago.
Frequently since that time, it is said,
she has threatened TO kill various
members of her family.

100000 Needed to Feed Hunqr,
Chinese

The Presbyterian board OF foreign
missions has received from its mis-
sionaries in the province of An Hui,
China, an account of famine condi-
lions. The missionaries declare that
at least $1000,000 will be needed to
tide the suffering provinces over till
next harvest time.
Rev. +. c.. Lebenstine writes
THE inhabitants are face to face
with the worst famine in their his
tory. The rainfall last summer was
the greatest of which there is any rec
ord and the autumn crops were a
total failure over a region of approx
mately 1000 square miles. 1t is esti-
mated that 100000 persons are prac-
tically starving. The death roll of
the coming months is bound to be
very great.
To acquaint myself with the ac-
tual conditions, | made two trips into
the famine district | met between
200 and 500 refugees every day.
For six months hundreds of thous.
ands will be absolutely destitute and
more than 100000 persons will be
dependent on charity"

Not voting: Townsend, Gardner,

Moran and Loud
Attention of whole country now is
directed toward the senate which
Will soon be the arena for a still more
desperate fight over the agreement.
According to the latest reports, pas
sage of the measure is believed in
administration circles to depend on
the attitude of Senators Bailey OF
Texas and Hepburn of Idaho. who,
it is said. might effectually kill the
measure by a joint filibuster.
In the Canadian house Hon. George
f. Foster bitterly attacked reciproc-
ity as delivering up the natural re-
sources of Canada to American COM
bines, as a cutting loose from Britain
and as tending toward annexation.
The Mccall bill now goes to the
senate. What it's fate will be in that
body is problematical. Mr.. Taft be-
lieves that If filibuster can be
avoided and vote taken the bill will
pass. He Is insistent that the senate
shall act one way or the other, and
has indicated that he would call an
extra session of congress if it does
not do so.
The passage of the bill in the house
came at the end of a long debate
which at times was as bitter as has
been heard on the floor of that cham
Der for years. The fight was con-
fined almost wholly to the Republi-
can side. Democratic members join
ed in from time to time and taunt-
ed the majority members for their
lack of unity.
Representative Fordney, of Michi-
gan, figured prominently in the de-
bate. He said the United States had
been "buncoed" by the Canadian rep
resentatives into free trade meas
ure from which it would derive no
benefit. The American representa-
ives had surrendered body, soul and
breeches to Canada.

A controversy has arisen IL England
as to which school has the right to
claim greatest age. There are two
schools which were founded in the
early part of the seventh century-the
Kings school, Rochester, and the
Kings school, Canterbury. Justus. on
his appointment to the see of Roches-

in connection with the cathedral. Au-
gustine established the Canterbury
school about the same time. st. Pc
