OBITUARY.

From the Jackson Star of Jack son. Michigan, we reprint the fol- lowing obituary, telling Of the life and death of Mrs. Thomas C. Rough ton. lt Is a kind tribute to a wo- man who seems to have been one of us as she was the mother of W. W. Boughton, a Skagway gentleman who has lived here for many years.
 Mrs. Thomas C. BoughtOn de- parted this life July 26 and was transferred to better, sweeter life Over There, the life eternal. Deco dent had been i'll since February last with heart disease, and she en- dured her suffering with the same Christian fortitude, the same sub merging Of self and interest and loy for others which marked her entire life. For many years she lived with her worthy family in Jackson, where she was highly esteemed for her many superior traits of character, but removed to Kalamazoo eighteen years ago, where her husband died in 1909. For several years the fam fly of the editor of the Star lived next door 10 Mir. Boughton's family, on second street, and we came to know and to appreciate her uplift- ing, sweet spirited temperament ant worth. She died at the age of 75, leaving a memory fragrant with char ity for and kind words to others survived by son, William, in far away Alaska, and two daughters, Misses Amy and Edna. Funeral ser vices were held at the home in Kal- amazoo Monday afternoon, and the attendance of hundreds of friends a;tested the esteem and love in which she was held. Rev. J. c. Pmkard. Of Hastings, her former pas tor at the Simpson NJ. F. church. Kalamazoo, a scholarly divine, who orsiciated at the funeral of her hus- band. in tender and sincere words, gave a beautiful eulogy to the cher ishe memory Of the silent form, which was then placed beside that ct her husband in Mountain Home cemetery"

They number upward of i00 pairs to each arm of the octopus, and once they obtain grip on the victim. unless the arm Is actually torn away from the body of the octopus It Is practically impossible for It's prey 10 dlsentangle Itself.
 In addition Co these suckers the octo pas has powerful pair of jaws, shap- ed like the beak of q parrot. behind which Is a formidable armor plated tongue used as rasping organ. The octopus will attack and Kill crabs and Holsters of considerable size, ripping oppn the body by means of It's power. ful jaws and devouriug the contents. In spite of being a creature Of such awe inspiring looks ths octopus has several enemies ln various species of whales. sharks and conger eels. In fact. the latter are particularly fond of devouring the smaller octopuses.
 COnger ecis hunt for the octopus and when found proceed to browse on it's limbs. The octopus tries to hug the slippery, slimy conger tight. but in vain. and. finding it's limbs growing less. discharges its ink In the face of the foe and under cover Of the turbid water beats a nasty retreat lt Is to escape the too pressing attention of its foes that the octopus possesses the power of changing it's color to core spond with that of it's surroundings

AGED ELDoRA MAN HURT.
Thomas eoIand Falls While Boarding
Train at CIemons,

While trying to get on a Story City
branch train at Clemens this morning,
Thomas Boland, aged "a, Of Eldora, fell
and was quite badly bruised. cut and
scratched on the face. hands and leg,
but no bones were broken. On &C.
count of his age the injuries are more
serious than they would otherwise be.
The train had started to leave the
Clemens station before Boland at
tempted to get on. His hands were
full of packages, and in trying to
handle them and mount the step Of the
coach at the same time, he fell
or was thrown. He was brought
to this city this morning and
taken to the office Of the COM
pany's surgeon. Later he was removed
to St. Thomas hospital. 1t is probable
that it will be necessary to keep him
at the hospital only a short time. Be-
land was on his way home from Glenn
ons when he was injured.

TOWN PLANT IS CONTEMPLATED
BY THE NEW COUNCIL ELECT.
ED RECENTLY.
FAVE BEEN GETTING SUPPLY
FROM CANNING FACTORY
Well That Supplies Packing Plant Has
Been Piped to Town-FactoryO Own
ers Want City to Take Over Water
Plant, But the Proposition Maae Is
Not Satisfactory to the Council.

The new council that was elected a
short tine ago in the town If Gilman
has under way an investigation of the
feasibility OF a plan TO establlsh a
public water supply plant for the town.
The town has no water supply de-
partment and those who have no prl-
vate wells have been getting water
from the wells of the Gilman Canning
Company that has been piped into the
town.
The new council is not entirely sat
sfied with the arrangement with the
canning company that has been in ell
feet, or that is proposed for the fu-
ture and in addition it wants an in
dependent plant of its own for private
use and for fire protection.
Get Water at Cost.
For several seasons past the town
or more particularly those who are
connected with the pipe line from the
canning companys wells. have been
supplied with water from this source
During those months of the year when
the canning companys factory is not
operating those VINO have the use OF
the water have dubbed together to de-
fray the expense of Keeping the pump
ing plant working and have secured
water at the cost OF pumping it. pro-
rated among those who got the water.
The Gilman Canning Company mas
made a proposition to the city that the
city take over the Well, pump. engine
and pipe line and operate it, but that
-. Iva
with free water during the months the
canning factory is operating.
This proposal has not entirely met
the approval OF the council. and 1t Is
investigating to determine the cost OF
a water system for the town. For TINS
plrpose water supply men have been
called to Gilman to consult with the
council.
The water supplied from the can :
ming factory plant comes from driven
well that the company put in. Inc
water is carried to the town thru
three-inch pipe.
