French sculptors of the eighteenth century. Born in the household of a courier at Versailles when the splen- dor of the French court had almost reached it's zenith, he came early under the influence of the decorative sculp- ture in and about the royal palace. He studied in he French royal school and at Rome Several of his works are still to be found in the churches of the eternal city, but the larger number are in Paris. He executed busts in bronze or marble of such famous men as Franklin, Rousseau, Moliere and Vol- taire.
 Houdin came to America with Franklin and spent three weeks at Mt. Vernon, George Washington's home, in october 17S5. During that time he mod elled a bust of General Washington as exact in all it's liniaments as his skill could make it. When the full length statue was completed it was placed in the capital building at Richmond, Vir ginia, where it stands today, probably the most perfect likeness in exist ence of the Father of America.
 The cast to be placed in the high school auditorium is an exact repro duction in plaster of the marble origi- nal With the base it stands six feet and ten inches high, and weighs nearly a thousand pounds when crated for shipment.
 The Washington" will stand on one side of the auditorium stage and a companion piece of Lincoln will be pIacad ou the other side in the near future.
 The high school owes much to the generous graduates of 1912. Certain ly they could have left behind no fit. ter token of their love for the "old high" than this statue of the greatest American.

SOCIALISTS AFTER MApERo.

EL PASO. Sept. 30.-SeAator Fall, of New Mexico, a member of the senate committee investigating the report that Americans fostered the present Mexican revolution, declared today that evidence had been secured on the Pacific coast that the socalled socialis- tic element was attempting to unseat MaderO, after assisting in the unseat- ing of Diaz and that the plan was to set up a socialistic government in Mexico. He declared some evidence tended to show that certain labor and political elements in the United States were assisting Mexican socialists to this end. The Industrial Workers and the Western federation of miners were mentioned in the evidence he said.

Free Mail Delivery for Durand.

Through the efforts of Cong. Ford.
ney the village of Durand is to be given
free mail delivery, effective as soon as
the preliminary arrangements, includ-
ing the examination for the appoint.
ment Of two carriers, can be completed.
The last congress included in the post
Office appropriation bill which passed
late in August an item of 500, 600 for
experimental free delivery in towns
and villages not entitled to the eervice
under the law and Mr.. Fordney imme-
diately asked that Durand be desig.
mated as one of the points. The bill
limits the expenditure at one Office to
$1,000 a year and on that basis only
about 80 Offices in the entire country
can be given this service. 1t is possible
the number may reach rs as but two
carriers will be given Durand and prob
ably other places. Durand citizens
were informed about Oct. 1st that if
the residences were numbered and
street signs erected that free delivery
could be probably secured and but little
time was lost in doing the work and
the latter part of last week Post Office
Inspector Mackey reported favorably on
the application and on Monday the de-
partment issued the order which made
Durand the first place in Michigan
named for this work. Durand citizens
are greatly pleased and are all loud in
their words of commendation for Cong.
Fordney. It's only another in the long
list of favors secured for Shiawassee
county through the activity Of its pres
ent congressman.

ESTEY MANUFACTURING CO.
The Grand Rapids Furniture Rec
ord of November contains a two and
half page illustrated write-up of the
new plant of the Estey Manufactu.-
ing Co. in this city, which we are
pleased to reproduce here. We re-
gret not being able to have the cuts
for use:
Two illustrations accompany this
article. One of these shows all that
was left of the valuable factory and
the prosperous business of the Estey
Manufacturing Co., of Owosso, Mich,
after it had been suddenly hit by a
tornado on the night of November II,
1911, and the other illustration shows
the substantial brick factory which
has now taken its place And this is
the story, first Of the re-entry into
the field of furniture production Of
the company named, and largely Of
the pertinacity and persistency of the
man who has had most to do with
whatever success the Estey Manufac-
turing Company ever achieved, and
who is now to be credited with the
re-establishmcnt of the business in
the face Of obstacles which would
have discouraged completely one less
courageous and indomitable. The
man referred to is Chas. +. Rigley,
and this is the history of the Estey
Manufacturing Co. from the begin
ming.
Like a good many other furniture
factories in Michigan, the enterprise
owed its origin to the abundance of
hardwood timber which was available
forty years, and more, ago. When
what is now the Estey Manufactur-
ing Company was launched 9the pro-
prietors were Estey & Tooley and
their factory was little more than a
saw mill. and it was located at Six
Mile Creek or West Haven, six miles
north of Owosso. The moving spirit
in the enterprise for a good many
years was D. M. Estey, who was Il
good deal of dreamer but possess
ed of dynamic energy. The factory
of Six Mile Creek did little more
than cut out the dimension material
which was hauled by team six miles
to the railroad at Owosso and ship
ped to Detroit where it was set up
and finished 1t was impossible to
make but one trip day between
West Haven and Owosso, and eight
months in the year the roads were
bad, with mud up to the hubs of the
wagons. The stock was stored in
the freight warehouses until a car
load was accumulated The freight
to Detroit was $40 per car and with
charges of from $40 to SIS a car at
Detroit for housing and assembling,
it was only short time before the

SUCH A POOR DAY
FOR BALL PLAYING

Last Sunday was not a good day
tor ball playing. In fact, it was
very poor dav. None Of the signs
were right, not even the high sign;
and the moon was not right. Ii
was also too hot to play, and the
wind did not blow from the right
quarter. Oh, 1t was a poor day for
ball and the Libby teams, both of
'em, should have known better
than to play under such adverse
circumstances.
But they did, and took the con-
sequences, while the other folks
took the games.
The Cubs played at home and
had the Bonners Ferry Juniors for
adversaries. A husky, curly head
ed chap was along with the ag-
gregation, and he was practically
the whole shooting match. The
way he sizzled them around the
plate was too hot for the home kids.
Besides, as we said before, it was
too hot to play ball, anyway.
The Juniors found Reedy pretty
freely and he gave way in the 9th
to Stone, who had plenty of steam
-lnore than the receiver could
properly handle-and the game
was held even from then on. But
the mischief had already been done,
the final score standing II to 2.
The White Sox went to Eureka
and played there in the afternoon.
Enreka has pretty strong lineup
this year, Montgomery, for time
with Troy last year, being in the
box. Jurgens and Jones twirled
for Libby. 1t was a slow game
and went ten innings, the northern
boys winning by score of 9 to 8.
A return game will be played here
next Sunday.
Last Sunday wasn't good day
for ball playing.

Heavy Fruit Crop Promised.

State Horticulturist M. L, Dean
has just completed a careful gener-
al survey of conditions pertaining
to the outlook for the 1912 fruit
crop. He says:
In no part of the state have
found any winter injury to buds or
trees, and all the fruit sections at
present promise heavy crop.
This is true in all parts of the state
wherever fruit trees have been
planted.
The weather conditions have
been very favorable for polllnization,
and universally the apples are so
heavily set that so percent to Is
pecernt should be thinned from
the tree as soon as the June drop
ceases.
General care of the orchards is
much improved in all sections and
more attention has been given to
careful pruning and spraying than
ever before.
Attention at present should be
given to thol ough spraying with
lime sulphur solution for scab in
sections where it was prevalent
last season, as badly scabbed apples
cannot be sold in Montana. Ifany
injury is manifest from bud moth,
or if existence of the codling moth
has been found in the orchard two
pounds of arsenate OF lead should
be added to each so gallons of the
diluted spray.
Dlllgent search should be made
daily for blight infection and when
1t is found cut the limb at least
two feet below the infection and
burn the diseased twigs. If the
