STRICKEN WHILE DRIVING.
Seth Tubbs Suffered Stroke of Para
lysis While Driving Auto.

In speaking of the incident the
Eaton Rapids Review of last Thurs
day said:
IS. A. Tubbs suffered stroke OF
paralysis Tuesday afternoon while
driving an automobile from Alma,
where he and his family have been
visiting for a few days. Mr.. Tubbs
had the stroke near Dewitt He real
lied that something was going to hap
pen and had presence OF mind enough
to stop the car 1t was necessary to
get a driver to bring them to Eaton
Rapids, and physician to accom-
pany them When they arrived in
this city Mr. Tubbs was in quite a
serious condition, however, he rested
fairly we'll during the night. 1t is
thought he will be able to be out
again in a short time. On account
Of his not feeling we'll for some time,
it is thought the drive TO Alma and
back was too much for him and the
stroke was the result"
Seth has lots of friends in Alma
who hope for his speedy and perma-
nent recovery

Weight IND MEASURES
BOttOmleSS Peck Measure To be AbOl-
iShed
LAW TAKES EFFECT TO-DAY
Dry Measure, Not Liquid 10 be Used for Beans
Etc

The last legislature passed a new
weights and measures law, placing its
operation in charge of the state dairy
and food department. This law takes
effect August Is. Under the law the
state dairy and food commissioner
becomes superintendent OF weights
and measures for the state and his
deputies become inspectors OF weights
and measures. He is also given au-
thority by the law to prescribe rules
and regulations for weights and meas
ures in the state.
One of the greatest abuses in the
state is the so-called bottomless peck
measure" says Commissioner Helme.
This measure is about the size OF
stovepipe in diameter and the osten-
sible object of this small diameter is
so that it can be slipped into paper
bag and the commodities measured
will be in the bag on the withdrawal
of the measure. This measure con-
tans the same number of cubic inches
that the ordinary flat peck measure
contains, but owing to its peculiar
tiles, like apples or potatoes, it is inn
possible to get peck of those COM
modities in this measure. \ bushel
OF potatoes under the Michigan law
weighs 90 pounds and peck of po-
tatoes should therefore weigh Is
pounds, but in the bottomless peck
measure only II pounds of average
size potatoes can be placed. The use
of this measure gives the dealer five
pecks to every bushel. The use of
this measure has been condemned by
other states and on and after Aug.
Is its use in Michigan will become
illegal under the regulations that will
be issued by the state superintendent
of weights and measures.
1T has been customary throughout
the state for grocers to sell dry beans
and like commodities in a tin quart
measure This tin quart measure
holds liquid quart which is about
10 cubic inches less than a dry quart
measure holdr AS result bushel
OF beans which contains 80 quarts
when measured out to the consumer
in tin quart measure will measure
81 quarts and the consumer is there
fore deprived of five quarts OF beans
on every bushel he buys. After Aug
Is all commodities not liquid must be
sold by dry measure, a quart of
which contains 671b cubic inches
Under regulations to be issued by the
superintendent of weights and meas
ures, the use of liquid measures in
selling dry commodities is prohibited
and failure to observe this law will
invite prosecution"

ELECTRIC STORMS
Alma Was Visited By Two Severe
Ones
ONE ARRIVED FRIDAY EVENING
The other "a Hours Later, Many Buildings HI
And Damage Done

Alma was deluged and illuminated
last Friday evening in a manner cal
culated to surprise the oldest inhab-
liant. The clouds began to gather
during the afternoon and early even
ing while distant rumbling OF thunder
foretold the coming OF heavy storm
which broke in all its fury about
eleven o'clock in the evening. For
an hour or more the sky and earth
was brilliantly illuminated by the
constantly flashing lightning. The
display of electricity was followed by
three distinct and separate storms
before quiet was restored about three
o'clock Saturday morning. During
that time several buildings were
damaged by lightning. A bolt struck
the east gable of the home OF George
Eargood on Valley avenue, tearing
off shingles, smashing the cornice,
the upper glass in two windows,
splintering the castings of both upper
and lower windows and ripping all
the siding loose on that end of the
house Mr. Eargood and his eleven
year old son slept on the second
floor within six inches of the win
dow shattered by lightning and mel
Their Of them were injured. His lit
tie girl, eight years OF age, slept on a
cot less than three feet from the
window on - other side and none
of the sleepers were awakened.
Plaster, broken glass and splinters
were scattered over both beds.
During the storm the barn OF j,
w. Robinson near Vestaburg was
fired and burned to the ground. Mr..
Robinson had the barn full of crops.
Nothing was saved. The damage
done by this one fire will reach
Sc 900 The barn was one of the
largest in the estate. Mr.. Robinson
carried insurance in the Montcalm,
Clinton and Ionia Co. Mutual.
In Isabella county the storm
seemed to do its worst. The church
at Coe six miles north of Alma, and
several large barns being fired and
consumed by the elements.
Saturday night our citizens were
again given an exhibition of the
power of nature, when at an early
hour an electric storm of great
strength broke upon our city and
continued its illuminating antics until
nearly three a. m. Sunday. During
the height OF the storm many farm
buildings to the north were con-
sumed as result of being fired by
lightning
All in all the storms of Friday and
Saturday evenings were the severest
experienced in Gratiot county dur
ing the season of 1913.
