BRITISH DIPLOMATS AMUSED.
They Call Williams Gan Amateur Dip
lomat Who Meant WE'LL"

London, July S.-The English news
papers printed the announcements of
George Fred williams, American Min
lister TO Greece and Montenegro, on
the subject of Albania without COM
ment, except in the headlines. There
they have received such labels as
Amazing Action by an American
Minister" and american Minister'S
Strange Statements" The Times yes
terday headed Mr. Williams second
statement with the line american
Minister'S Further Indiscretions."
The Athens correspondents OF The
Times and The Morning Post said that
Mr.. Williams course had created a
great sensation and had excited
amazement in the Greek capital
In the British Foreign Office and the
London diplomatic set the affair has
caused great amusement. While OIL
Gals here have refused u discuss the
matter for publication they have not
hesitated to say that the government
must have taken notice " the attacks
upon the Albanian government; had
been made by representative OF any
European power; but it was realized
that Mr.. williams was an amateur
diplomat who meant well.

MAKING EPIGRAMS.

The head epigrammatist of the
great wit and humor factory bent over
, his work bench and rested his gaze
upon an epigram that had been used
and used until ii was cracked and
frazzled.
It's shame to throw it away" he
said, "for | believe it can still be turn
ed about so that it will have a COM
mercial value. know what / will do,
will offer a prize to the workman
who brings in the best new twist"
So when the workmen were gather
ed in the room he told them that he
wanted them to beat out a new and
clever turn upon the old motto: "A
bird i'm the hand is worth two in the
BUSH" He gave them just one hour
at their anvils, with a monetary prize
for the best effort and honorable men
ton for the others. And union wages
of course for all.
When the time was up this assort-
ment was handed in:
"A chauffeur in the front seat is
worth two under the motor car"
"A kiss i'm the dark is worth two
under the electric light.
"A grain of sand on the beach is
worth two in the eye"
"a gift from n husband after mar
riage is worth two from lover be-
fore"
"A suffragette on hunger strike in
prison is worth two doing damage
at large"
"a weeks wages in bank is worth
two in trousers pocket, that the
wife is going through at night"
And while the first five received
honorable mention, IL was the last
one that won the prize.

CIRCULATE PETITIONS FOR
new ORNAMENTAL SYSTEM
HEClA STREET BUSINESS MEN
READILY ATTACH THEIR
SIGNATURES.

In the hope of bringing the plan for
Hecla street to a realization, petitions
yesterday were circulated among Hec-
la street businessmen and the re-
quest invariably met with favor to the
extent that the signatures were many.
This indicates that tht signers APP
prove of the proposed system and
that they are ready to replace the
strings of incandescent lamps with
an improved and up-to-date system.
The project gained Roadway at last
nights meeting OF the council when
decision to install 80 100-Watt tung-
stem lamps was reached. For the pres
ent, this system will be installed on
only one block, from Third to Fourth
streets.
The plan which the Houghton Coun-
~ Electric Light company proposes
is to install the lamps and for the
first year to charge the service to the
businessmen. This will involve an
expenditure Of approximately 5000 for
tdtl blpNh q gtblf a sum III NANtoS VI
that which now is paid for the extra
lighting. Under the present arrange
ment. each businessmen is assessed
from 81 to SO per month. The COM
pany further proposes that after the
expiration of year, the village take
over the new system and pay for the
service. This will relieve the mer-
chants of their share OF the expense,
but the cost of lighting will he great
er. To meet the discrepancy, it is not
unlikely that the businessmen would
willingly pay part OF the cost or at
least as much as they now pay for the
extra lights.
The board also decided that no ex-
tension OF the concrete road building
will be made beyond Tamarack street.
Numerous requests were received
that the Improvement be extended
from Second to First street on Hccla
and from Tamarack to Florida street
on Lake Linden avenue but as the new
road is but an experiment, ii was de-
cidcd to give it a trial. Furthermore,
the council could not undertake more
improvement work without bonding

CLAIMS u. Pts
UNDULY AROUSED
ex-Ambassador Says State Might
Profit by Jap Colony

Lansing, July S.-The storm Of
protest that has been raised through
out the state, and particularly I'm the
upper peninsula, over the proposed
colonization OF 400 japanese farmers
In Michigan does not appeal to Hon.
Thomas ]. o'Brien, former ambassa-
dor to Japan, who says
my only information is obtained
from the newspapers, and / have not
even seen the comments OF all of these
but IL seems that the owners of GER
tain swamp lands in the northern pen
insula are seeking to make them valu-
able through the superior SKILL patti
ence and endurance Of few japanese
emigrants and that some OF the peo-
pie of our state are nervous lest the
invasion may undermine industrial
conditions, IL not society itself.
Our state has an area of between
80 and 60 thousand square miles and
population OF about 100000. The
objection to the coming of three or
four hundred industrious people be-
tokens provincialism which does us
no credit. II they succeed in giving
any value to the lands upon which
they settle, they will prove a blessing,
since no white people have yet been
able 10 meet with success. My only
fear is that they may not stay since
climate conditions il nothing else, will
prevent.
The Japanese have the same right
10 come into the United States and to
Michigan as the emigrants from any
other country with whom We have
treaties. During the last few years
at the request of our government, the
government OF Japan has voluntarily
restricted the coming of its working
class and under this arrangement the
number returning home is probably
nearly as great as the number arriv-
ing.
gestion that we should pass a law ex-
Guiding these people from land own
ership. In Michigan. aliens are as free
to take title to lands as citizens and
this privilege no doubt may by law be
cut off, but the change must apply to
all aliens and not merely TO the peo-
pie of a particular country. Up to the
present this broad and generous pro-
vision has not proved a menace and l
doubt whether anything has yet oc-
CURED which would justify a repeal
California May Profit.
Washington, July 6.-Commissioner
OF immigration Caminetti, a Calfor-
MAN. declares there is no significance
to the proposed colonization in Mich
igan by japanese, save that it gives
the rest of the country a truer insight
into the troubles California is having.
Michigan members of congress have
looked into the federal status OF the
affair and find that there is nothing
to be done.
The Japanese intending TO form the
Michigan colony are already in this
country, so Michigan cannot interfere
with their interstate transit.
California members OF congress ex-
pect the incident to result in gaining
more sympathy for the Pacific coast
states in their action in debarring
Japanese from owning land.
II is said that Michigan is without
relief unless her legislature passes
law similar TO that which has caused
so much trouble in California.
