ENTERTAIN MEMBERS
AND THEIR FRIENDS

On Tuesday evening of this week a
very pleasant social gathering took place
at the home of Mr. aud Mrs. f. G..
Hawley, consisting OF the members and
friends of the Christian church, who
were entertained by the Official Board
of the church. The evening was de-
lightfully spent by the large number
present, during which time refreshments
were served. 1t was unanimously agreed
TO continue such gatherings at frequent
intervals for the purpose of developing
the social phase of the church and thus
increase its possibilities and opportuni
ties for christian service and fellowship

SOME GRAPES SOLD
PRICES ARE GOOD

Owing to the cold, wet weather the
grapes this year are ripenIng very slowly.
Some growers are picking, however, and
several carloads have beeh shipped by
the various associations. Some warm
weather is necessary, however, to prop
erly ripen the fruit. The quality Of
those already shipped has been good and
the price last week was Is cents per
eight pound basket. The prevailing
price this week is little lower.
The crop 10 be harvested this year
has been varously estimated during the
summer from a quarter to half crop.
AS the picking progresses, however, it is
found tina. the crop will be much lighter
than anticipated The higher price will
compensate in a measure for the short
age, but the growers as a rule this year
are not in very high spirits

freely Of her assistance in making the
event the success that 1t was, The day
was spent in "reminiscences OF the past
and was much enjoyed by these old

DETRIMENTAL To
FIRE DEPARTMENT
Story Published in Gazette
Caused Storm of Protest.
Was Retracted in Sun.
days Issue.

The story published in the Kalama-
zoo Gazette following the Dyckman
house fire last week to the effect that
"In the excitement following the injury
OF Frank Hennesy, one of the tiremen,
the fire was forgotten and went out OF
Its own Accord, caused storm of pro-
test from the members of the fire de-
partment and citizens in general. The
facts we're that Frank Hennesy, men,
Ger of the hook and ladder company, fell
as the trucks were being taken from the
engine house and the front wheels passed
over him, breaking several ribs and 9TH
erwise injuring him. The injured man
was promptly taken care Of, but the ac-
cident did not delay the department 10
the least. A line of hose was promptly
laid and everything in readiness to fight
a fire. The fire, which originated around
the chimney ia the attic of the kitchen,
was extinguished by Mr.. Epley with the
assistance of the Chief and several
members of the department without any
water being thrown, but everything was
ready, and very promptly, to fight fire
had there been one.
The STORY" was undoubtedly sent in
as Joke but Paw Paw is very proud of
its efficient fire department and naturally
the "Joke" did not take well. There is
probably 90 town of its size in the state
that has more efficient and loyal fire
department.
Ia last Sundays issue of the Gazette
the offending portion of the story which
caus ed the "storm" was retracted and all
is well.

Plan of President 10 Call Into
Conference A. B. C. AmbasSa-
doris and B. G. u Ministers
Originated Late in June.
INVITATION FOLLOWED
FAILURE OF u. S. NOTE
America Determined That Strife
Shall End in Mexico; First
Will Be Appeal for Factions to
Get Together.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 3.-The Pres
ident's determination to seek the co.
operation of South and Central Ameri-
can governments in the restoration of
peace in Mexico was reached last
June when the appeal made to the
Mexican factions to end their strife
brought no resslts.
The invitation to the Latin-Ameri-
can ambassadors and ministers to con
fer with Lansing was extended June
30, while the statement to the MeXi-
can people was issued June p The
announcement of the plan was held
up until the diplomats received the
sanction of their governments to par
ticipate in the conference, which was
necessary because the affairs of a
third country MeXico-are to be re-
viewed Reports from Vera Cruz to-
night announced the formal entrance
of Gonzales into Mexico City.
All details of the Presidents plan
for the settlement of the Mexican
problem, have not. it is reported, been
communicated to the six southern gov
ernments but their representatives,
who are to take part in the confer
ence Thursday, have been given, in
confidence, a general outline Of what
is to be proposed by the Washington
administration
Prompt and determined action is
declared to be the foundation of the
Presidents plan, which will be sub
mitted to the conference by Lansing.
1t is believed the first step proposed
will be final appeal to the Mexican
leaders to end their hostilties and
arrange for the restoration of a con
stitutional government by peaceful
means 1t is thought a time limit for
their compliance will be suggested
The demand will be made for the inn
mediate relief OF the food situation in
Mexico City. The maintenance OF
railroad and telegraphic communica.
tion between Vera Cruz and Mexico
city.
It is understood if the Mexican
leaders cannot do this, the United
States, aided possibly, by the Latin
American governments may find il
necessary to take physical control of
the capital and railroad by force and
hold it until peace is restored
Replying TO questions, Lansing said
the sending Of troops to Mexico City
to take food to starving Americans
and other foreigners, could not be
the action of the United States and
other powers in China during the
Boxer rebellion Lansing will not say
however such a plan is in contempla

LONDON. Aug. 3.-The stubborn
resistance the Russians are offering
and the slowness of the forces Of the
Austro-Germans have been able to
move in the last few days has led TO
the belief i'm some quarters that the
German supply OF ammunition is be-
ginning to feel the effects of the pro-

yet save thine Polish capital The

gale on Lake Ontario, the worst in
several years, according to the wealth
er bureau the freight steamer Alexan-
dria. of the Canadian Steamship Line,
bound from Montreal to Toronto, ran
ashore on Scargorough Bluffs. The
surf was too heavy to permit the
launching Of boats but Captain Bloom
1eld and crew of twenty-five, all told,
leaped into the breakers wearing life
preservers and were dragged ashore
by an amateur life-saving brigade.
