HOge to Lead West Point.

Ben Hose, who is a member Of
the second class at West Point,
and who has played for two
years ON the football team, has
been chosen captain Of the team
for 1913. Ben received his first
football training at Wentworth,
where more stars have been de-
veloped than at any other prep
aratory school in the middle
west. He was probably the best
end Wentworth ever had, and
his elevation to the captaincy of
the West Point team is not a
surprise to those who have seen
him play. When a member Of
the third class at West Point
his work at end gained him re-
c0gnltlon from the pest sIuueHUS
of the game in the east. His
allertness in the Yale game of
that year, on recovering a fun
BILE, was the means Of a victory
over that formable team. The
captaincy of a West Point foot
ball team is indeed an honor, and
is conferred on that one each
year, who has shown superior
merit and won the confidence
and esteem OF the members of the
football squad.

Fake Advertising.

Lexington has been visited
recently by several oily tongued
promoters OF advertising schemes.
These promoters are out for
"easy" money. The schemes
they have are usually without
merit as an advertising medium.
They wait upon merchants with
a plausible tale and relieve said
merchant of $500 or $1,000, and
promise to place the name OF the
donor on some card to be placed
in some public place. The pro
moter then pays the printer
three or four dollars for the
printing, and leaves town with
the proceeds, which in many cases
amounts to forty or fifty dollars.
This he has done in a few hours.
The merchant never hears of his
advertisement, the promoter en-
joys the pickings, and there you
are.

Officer 666 POSTPONED.

Officer 500, which was
booked for the opera house Fri
day night, December 13, will
not appear as advertised. This,
on account OF the company not
being able to arrive here until
the night of the presentation.
Manager Wright, knowing some
thing of the miserable service
of the Missouri Pacific, would
not consent to this arrangement
as sometimes the east bound ev-
ening train does not reach here
until all respectable people ought
TO be in he'd, and rather than
subject his patrons to a long
wait, he consented to a post
ponement. The show will be
given a date here later in the
season by the Coast Company,
which will show in Kansas City.

business at the outset. Mrs. Fred
Ocobock is at the helmend we wish to
prophecy continuance of the patronage
that she has had so far, as we feel
confident that her business ability and
splendid hospitality will warrant success.
She has everything that is to be
found at parlors Of this kind to cheer
the tired pleasure seeker-ice cream
soda, plain cream and sundaes, soft
drinks, confectionery and a pleasant
place to chat. She also has a number
OF boats to rent and the lake affords
much pleasure to many. Bathing is the
pastime for others and take it fro n
every point Of view the little resort is a
popular place. Take a stroll this
evening and stop at Elm Beach; then
you will give us credit for good iudg-
ment.

ATTEMPT MADE
TO WRECK TRAIN
Train on the Fruit Belt
Leaves Track With but
Slight Damage.

According to the South Haven Gazette
an attempt was made to wreck train No.
3 on the Fruit Belt Line, which leaves
Kalamazoo at II o'clock noon. The
train was running at good rate Of
speed and when it reached the switch
near the turn table just this side Of
Kalamazoo, it was discovered that the
switch had been turned, the turn table
tampered with and run half around
and huge boulder placed on the track.
The engine and tender passed on over
the switch, but the balance of the train
separated, coaches taking the main
track and the engine and tender the
switch and considerable damage to the
road bed, ties and track resulted.
1t was necessary to cancel two trains
on the line and build track around the
portion torn out by the engine and
coaches when they parted company and
tried to take two different tracks at the
same time.

MANY DISASTERS
DURING PAST WEEK
The Use of Steel Cars on Michigan
Central Saves Loss of Many Lives,
Ii Is Thought.

The past week has been one Of
fatalities. Railroad wrecks, drownngs
at summer resorts, death by runaway
horses. death and destruction of pro-
perty by lightning, by heat from the
sun and numerous other calamities.
The most serious Of all these was the
Chicago. Burlington e. Quincy wreck at
Western Springs, l6 miles west OF Chi
cago. This occurred Sunday morning.
1t was a fast mail train and ia fog
collided with standing train resulting
inl3 dead and as many injured.
A wreck on the Michigan Central at
Comstock, four miles east of Kalamazoo,
OF the west bound train running go
miles an hour, proved to be miracle as
the train consisting OF eight Pullman,
two day coaches and baggage car met
defeat on account Of spreading rails.
Six persons we're injured, but no deaths
resulted. The circumstance OF the
passengers escaping more serious injury
was undoubtedly due to the fact of the
cars being manufactured entirely OF
steel. Wooden cars it is thought would
have crushed and the loss OF life been
considerable.

SENATOR LORIMER
LOSES HIS SEAT
JUNIOR SENATOR FROM ILLIN-
OIS is OUSTED BY VOTE OF
55 TO %.

BY vote 55 to % the United State
Senate on Saturday, unseated William
Lorimer, the junior senator from Illinois,
and declared his title to his seat invalid.
The end of the long fight came after
three days OF protracted debate, in which
Senator Lorimer has occupied the floor
for three sessions, making an impassion-
ed defense of his election. The resolu-
tion offered by Senator Luke Lea Of
Tennessee, declaring the Lorimer cleo
ton by the Illinois legislature in 1909
invalid, was adopted. The fight to oust
Senator Lorimer from his seat in the
senate has been on for more than two
years. Charges and counter. charges Of
bribery and corruption and incrimi-
nation, indictments, trials and "confes-
sions" galore have filled the history Of
the case, and Saturdays vote ended one
of the most sensational legislative en-
broglios that the country has ever
known.

INTERESTING CASE
IN PROBATE COURT
Neighbors Say that Parties
are Incapable of Bring
ing Up Children.
PARENTS SEEM INCOMPETENT
judge Anderson Commits Children to
Coldwster Until Homes Can Be
Provided.

Considerable attention was centered
upon the probate court last Saturday
afternoon as the hearing OF The People
vs. Al Gray and wife OF Decatur town
ship was being held before Judge David
Anderson. The point of argument was
whether the aforesaid Mr.. and Mrs.
Gray are the pre- per persons mentally,
physically and morally to have the GUS
tody and care of their three children, a
girl of seven and boy and girl little
younger. The courle have five children,
boy of II and baby less thar a year
old, besides the three before mentioned.
Complaint was entered by neighbors
of the defendants and a request made
that County Agent Hurbut be sent to
investigate, which was done and the
case was brought about as a result Of
the research
The IA mily Of six persons have for the
past year lived on small place near
Decatur in the locality known as the
swamp The house contains three
rooms, poorly furnished aud at the time
the investigation they were all occu-
pying one sleeping room The conditions
existing around the place are, as pre-
sented to the court decidedly unsanI-
tary and the personal appearance of the
children, the moral influence surround
ing them and the apparent impossibility
OF them having any educational advan-
tages aroused the sympathy of people
living near and the attention of the ju-
venile court was asked for.
The mother of the family is thorough
ly incompetent, not being able to read,
write. tell her owu age, tell the time of
day, know the directions of the compass,
know the name of her own township, in
fact, is mentally degenerate. Physi-
cally we'll and strong, but as far as di-
recting the destinies of family are con-
cerned, ii pitiful object to look upon.
The evidence was particularly straight
forward and clear on both sides, the
witnesses for the people being near
neighbors aud the majority of the wit
nesses for the defense being people who
live some distance away aud simply
pass the place by team.
Ii was asked of the court that the
three children of school age be sent to
Coldwater where they can have the ad-
vantages of education and moral train
ing.
Glenn E. Warner conducted the case
for the people and a. Lynn Free was the
attorney for the defense. The hour be-
ing late when the evidence was finished,
the court concluded to hear the argu-
ments of the attorneys at future date,
Monday at 2 p. IN. being the time de-
cided upon.
The result of the investigation and
hearing which followed was the decision
of Judge Anderson committing the chill
dren to the home at Coldwater. They
suitable homes can be procured for
them.

WILL ESTABLISH
AN OFFICE HERE
Postal L elegraph Company
WillLOcate in Paw Paw
in Near Future.

A. A. Lafferty of Chicago, represent
ative of the Postal Telegraph company,
was in Paw Paw last week looking over
the situation with a view of locating an
Office here. He evidently was pleased
with the outlook as II. l.. Mcneil re-
ceived letter from him this week stat
ng that he would establish an Office 10
Pw Paw at least during the fruit sea.
son and entertain ed no doubt but tha
postal telegraph station would be
made a permanent thing in Paw Paw.
He expressed the belief that there would
be two offices during the fruit season,
one near the shipping point and one up
town.
The citizens of Paw Paw will be
pleased TO learn that there is to be an
other telegraph station here. There has
been a continual effort made to have
the Wes tern Union establish an Office
up town and many promises have been
made, but without result. Train dis
patcher Bert Spicer will also welcome
another office. 1t will relieve him of
much work besides many kicks for which
be is not to blame
