Ambrose Haines Dead

The funeral of Ambrose Haines, a re-
spected resident of Arbela, and vet
eran of the Civil War, was held from
the Elva Church, on Wednesday. A
peculiar circumstance concerning the
death of Mr.. Haines is to be found in
the fact that he died on the exact an
niversary of the death of his wife.
which occurred forty-two years ago,
and was buried on the anniversary of
her burial. Mr.. Haines is survived by
a son. Manning, who lives in Detroit,
and by a daughter, Rosemary. who re-
sides at home. Deceased was brother
in-law of Mrs. Frank Morton, who, to-
gether with her son, w. M. Goodwin,
and the latter's wife, attended the fun
.eral.

Banquet Very Successful

The banquet held Tuesday evening at
the M. P. Church under the auspices of
the Young Mems Brotherhood was very
successful and pleasant from every
point of view. DR.. r. H. Neelands was
most happy in his introduction of the
POSTMASTER, and the toastmaster, E. l..
Powers, in turn, handed out choice
assortment of jokes and jibes. causing
no little amusement to those who par
ticipated in the program. c. H. Reed
talked about "The Other Fellow" (from
force of habit. Miss Bertha Yerden
rendered two charming piano solos;
Miss Gladys Wright gave very fine
dramatic reading and responded to an
encore; Mesdames Maud Goodfellow
and G. w. Greene gave charming
vocal duet, and Messrs. Floyd Hamer
and Ray English gave an equally pleas
ing number on the piano and violin, re-
spending to an enthusiastic encore.
Rev. c. w. Greene gave short but
eloquent talk on "Class IDEALS" which
really indicated the value to every
one of high ideals in the shaping of
character. DR.. r. H. Neelands and
Rev. C. w. Greene, playing their own
accompaniment on banjo and guitar,
sang plantation melodies to the great
delight of the audience, and Mrs. B. S.
Jennings gave comic recitation that
was received with so much favor that
she was compelled to respond to an
encore. About one hundred tickets
were sold for the banquet.

PUBLIC PROPERTY
INTERESTING CASE DECIDED AT
OTISvILLE
Farmer Owned Land Around Lake But
Jury Held He Could Not
Prevent Fishing

The Burroughs Barden trespass case
which held the attention of the people
of the township of Forrest for some
weeks was tried Saturday, July 18 in
Justice Doane's court at Otisville, At
ter celebrating an hour and half the
jury brought in verdict of not guilty
of trespass.
Will Barden, representing the gen.
eral public and wishing to test the
legality of Mr.. Burroughs right in for
bidding the public to fish IN lake on
his farm, put boat on it and went on
and fished. His arrest followed. The
lake in controversy comes clear up to
and can be entered from the public
road, and Mr.. Burroughs has held all
control of it for the last 80 or 40 years.
The lake abounds in large fish.

STREET PAVING IS
PROCEEDING RAPIDLY
CLIO WILL HAVE ONE OF THE FIN.
EST STREETS IN MICHIGAN
No Village of Its Size Has Anything to
Equal II. Big Advantage to Farm
ers and Business Men.

Brick laying was started on Vienna
ST., Tuesday morning, and has been
progressing rapidly since. Enough of
the street has now been covered so that
it is easy to see that we are going to
have beautiful street and one that, in
all probability, will last for long time;
just how long it is impossible to say,
but with the amount of traffic it will
have to bear in Clio it is not likely that
it will have to be renewed in fifty
years.
Villages profit through reputation
for enterprise, the same as individuals,
and certainly nothing could be more in
dicative of enterprise than the building
of this splendid roadway. The farmers
are already expressing their apprecia-
tion of it and of the fine hitching posts
that line both sides of the street, and
while there can be no concrete evidence
OF the, fact, we firmly believe that both
improvements will soon pay for them
selves through the increased trade that
will come to Clio. 1t is in no sense
local improvement but. one that is to
the credit of the entire town. Now, if
we had about four times as many lights
along Vienna street, of smaller candle
power, perhaps, than those now in use,
the street would make grand show
ing at night and be much more attract
i've for evening trade. 1t should not be
hard to imagine how fine nice row of
incandescent lamps would be, lining
both sides of the street. and it should
not be very expensive to have them,
either.
The work of the expert brick layer
has been very interesting to large
number of people who have watched
him. 1t is said that an expert work.
man at that kind of business will lay
upward of 25, 900 bricks in ten hours.

From copy of the Midland Sun, of
July 9th, we learn Of the death, in Mid
land, on July 1st, of Mrs. VIM. Rear
don, who was at one time resident of
Clio where she had many friends. Mrs.
Reardon suffered paralytic stroke on
June 18th, from which she never re-
gained consciousness, and her death fol-
lowed as above stated. She was a
cousin of E. E. Huyck. who together
with his wife and son, Charles. attend
ed the funeral. In speaking of the
character of the deceased the Sun said:
"She was one of the kindest, most gen.
erous and sincere Christian characters
in this city's history"

Mothers Picture

1t hung within the cottage where oui
loving eyes could see
The picture of our mother. fair a;
angels face can be;
She seemed living presence, with her
dear eyes soft and mild,
And with lips, we could imagine, prayed
for blessings oa each child.
Her wrinkles, pearled in beauty, were
so very fair to see,
The smiles that wreathed her features
thrilled our hearts with ecstacy;
We could fondly gaze upon her when
the sunshine glowed in power.
And lit up our mothers features with
the wreath of beauty's dover.

CLIFFORD BEEBE
KILLED BY CAR
STRUCK BY NORTH BOUND LIMIT
ED AT FOSTERS CROSSING
Accident Occurred Monday Night and
Unfortunate Man Died Tuesday
in Hurley Hospital.

Clifford Beebe, known to the people
of this vicinity for the last twenty
years as wanderer, who was home
less and yet always remained in this
immediate territory, was struck by a
north bound S. & F. car at Fosters
crossing, Monday evening, and sus-
tanned injuries from which he died
Tuesday morning.
Beebe, it appears, and his wife, who
was the sharer of his nomadic existence,
had been picking berries at Foster s
and were waiting for car that would
bring them to Clio, where Mr.. Beebe' s
sister, Mrs. Cornelia L. Ayliffe, resides.
The circumstances attending the acci-
dent are not clearly known, but it is
said that Mr.. Beebe was sitting on q
milk platform and seeing car ap-
preaching, jumped from his seat for
the purpose of tagging it. The car
was limited and, of course, did not
heed the signal, and Beebe, getting too
close to the track was struck by the
steps, his hip being broken and also
sustaining terrible fracture of the
leg below the knee. A telephone call
was sent to Sheriff Green and at his re-
quest the police ambulance was sent
and conveyed the aged man to the hos
pital.
Mr.. Beebe died Tuesday morning at
about 100 o'clock, and if he had sur
vived, an amputation of the leg would
have been necessary. After her hus-
band was taken to the hospital, the
aged wife, who accompanied him there,
was taken to the Genesee county in
firmary south of the city as she had no
place to stay and could not be kept
at the hospital.
The remains were inferred in Avon
dale cemetery, at Flint. Friday after
noon.
We understand the railroad company
made settlement in the interest of
the widow, Thursday.
Mr.. Beebe was one Of the best known
characters in this section, he and his
wife travelling from place to place, do
ing whatever odd jobs they found and
staying only short while. For time
he lived near the Flint river bridge and
was famous fisherman, seining hun
dreds of pounds of suckers from the
river during the season when such fish
are running. Then the game laws in
terferred with the old mans avocation
and he became more of wanderer than
before. He was not lazy, however,
and was always willing to work.
Besides his sister, before mentioned,
he is survived by brother, Frank, who
is a well-to-do farmer, living near Mill
ington, and sister who resides near
Flushing, also by two sons and three
daughters, who reside at different
points in the state.

w. C. T. u. Note.

Our next meeting will be held with
Mrs. B. S. Jennings, on Wednesday,
July 10Th. Our last was surprisingly
well attended, considering that the day
was exceedingly hot, and showed the
interest the members have in w. C. T.
u. work.
We learn to do by doing, and in no
other way can we accomplish anything.
During this last year over million
temperance essays were written by
school children, for which $40, 500 was
paid for prizes by the w. C. T. u,
which was also the means of having
the temperance lesson taken up in our
Sunday schools.
