FIRST VOYAGE OF COLUMBUS.

FIRST VOYAGE OF COLUMBUS.
 Columbus sailed from PaIos on his first voyage of discovery August g. 1892 This most momentous voyage in the worlds history was made by a
 fleet of three vessels fitted out for Columbus by King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella The flagship of Col umbus was the declled vessel Santa Maria, and the two small unlocked caravels, the Pinta and the Nina, were commanded by the Pinzon brothers, Martin Alonzo and Vincent Yanez. The day of sailing was a Friday, and many of the members of the crew murmured at the selection of this ill., favored day of the week. As the weeks passed the men grew mutinous, but Columbus quelled the uprisings, and proceeded westward until, late in the night of October II, land was sight ed. The crown had offered a sum about equal to S10O, and to this Co lumbus had added a silken doublet, as prizes for the man who should first discover land. At 10 o'clock at night Columbus, standing on the deck, saw a light on the verge of the horizon, Early the next morning Rodrigo Tricena, a sailor on the Pinta, first saw land; but the award
 was given to Columbus, who had seen the light on the land the pre- vious night

Guardianship Continues

Guardianship Continues
The opinion of Judge c. H. Wood of
Mt. Gilead in the matter of the guard
ianship of Charity Ann Robinson, an
imbecile, has been filed with Clerk of
Courts Taylor. The matter was re-
Gently submitted on a motion to ter
inmate guardianship. Judge Wood
overrules the motion. The court says:
1--WE think the mind of Charity Ann
Robinson has become so weakened by
old age as to render her incapable of
managing and preserving her prop
erty for the following reasons: From
the fact hat she was continually
changing her mind from one propo-
sition to another; that she allowed
herself to be alienated from her
daughters and so remained for three
years, that she allowed herself to be
influenced, controlled and dominated
over by strangers, that the two bust
ness propositions which she had in
the past three years, one when she
sold her farm and the other when the
transaction was closed up, both were
disastrous to her property rights"
This cause started in the court of
probate, where a guardian was ap-
pointed and where, some time later,
the court held that the condition that
existed when the appointment was
made had ceased to exist, and remov-
ed the guardian. This was appealed
by William Wagner, the guardian. In
April, Mrs. Robinson filed motion
to dismiss the appeal, which was sub
mitted to Judge Fulton and sustained.
The matter next appeared in the
court of appeals, where the judgment
of the common pleas court was re-
versed and the case, remanded.
Few matters in law have attracted
more attention than has this case,
and it is said, practically every per-
son residing in and about Frederick
town is lined up on one side or the
+, other.
It is very probable that the case
win again be carried to the court of
appeals.

DANGERS OF MOST FLY POISONS

In Farm and Fireside is an article
telling of the dangers to human be-
ings in many fly poisons.
Most of them contain arsenic-a
deadly and rapid poison. In view of
the extent to which such poison Is
kept in saucers about many houses
during fly time, let us bear in mind
that the past two years seventy-two
cases are on record of children being
poisoned by playfully drinking the
contents of saucers set out for flies.
"Some Of the children died, but
most of. them. having prompt medical
treatment, recovered. Michigan now
has a law regulating the sale of fly
poisons. But matter of this kind
is often successfully COPIED with if the
attention of intelligent people is sim
ply called to the danger. We are not
fly poisons, but simply
urge care in keeping them out of the
reach of youngsters"
