A TRIBUTE TO MRS. WINN

Last week Mrs. Catherine Winr
was called to enter into her eternal
rest. Needless to say much of one
so well known to all, and so loved
| by all.
Mrs. VIM came 10 Marietta six
ty-four years ago, a bride She at
tended school in Columbus six years
She was born October 2Sth, 1890
nearly eighty six years ago. She was
married October %, 1852, sixty-fou1
years ago. Her quietness and con
fidence, her mature strength of mind
and character, and her composed and
beautiful countenance is often seen
| pictured in the strength, beauty and
peace of an October day.
Mrs. Winns strong mind was
clear to the end. A few hours be-
fore, when her body was growing
weak, she asked for a prayer and a
blessing. She suffered much during
the last three years, and l saw her
very often; but always there was the
cheerful smile, and never a word Of
complaint.
Ny friend was d Christian That
is a great thing or a little thing,
conditional on whether our life is a
caricature or aimed towards the
standard. The details of her faith
were different from mine; such diff
ferences We're never mentioned. We
had the same Father, the same Say
iOus, and were members of the One
Body of Christ. Each recognized in
the other an individual who had not
been fashioned in a mold Diverse
opinions welded strong friendship.
To me, she was always the Christian
soldier, brave, fearless and strong,
with her own special tenderness and
gentleness.
Upon her soldier comrade, her
daughter, she depended to the last.
And as she was entering into the
more abundant life, her faint voice
said distinctly, more than once,
Daughter, stay with me and hole
my hands" And so another was ad-
ded to the gathering beyond the boz
derland awaiting the grand reunion.
The strife is DER, the battle done,
The victory of life is won,
The song of triumph has begun.
Alleluia!

Presenfments of The Grand
Jury For July Term Of Court

untll 1t has been recommended by an
other Grand Jury of this County.
! 90 We recommend that Walter
Mayes be appointed Notary Public
and EX-Ofticio Justice of the Peace,
in and for Lost Mountain in District
| No. 1910, to succeed N. w. Dunton,
whose term has expired.
| CD We have, through committee.
examined the Aims House and find
same in excellent condition. There
are eighteen inmates at present and
they seem to have good attention and
comfortable quarters. The farm is
in good condition and the crop and
live stock are first class. We also
visited the new farm recently pur-
chased, and find it to be an excellent
place. We think two or three small
new frame houses will be necessary
to properly care for the inmates.
CD We have, through committee,
by special invitation of the County
| commissioners, carefully examined
the bridge across the Chattahoochee
River at Roswell. We find this
bridge in bad shape, being eighteen
inches out of line and in our opinion
unsafe for traffic. We do not thiuk
this bridge worth repairing, and re-
commend that the commissioners try
and make some satisfactory arrange
ments with Fulton County toward
the erection of a new bridge at this
point.
tl0) We wish to extend our
thanks to Hon. H. l.. Patterson.
Judge, for his fair and able charge
delivered to our body, and for his
interest in the enforcement of the
law in this County.
G1.) We wish to thank Hon. Her
bert Clay, Solicitor General, for his
many courtesies to this body, and
to recommend him as an able, pain

commenced The case was tried in the
Iron county circuit and Judge Flanni-
gan held in favor OF vosper Donohue
appealed 10 the Michigan supreme
court aud that body affirmed the find
ings OF Judge Flanagan. In the litigs-
tion so far conducted Arthur Ryall OF

Dan Ball OF Marquette Mr. vosper
Last Tuesday Mr.. Rysll received
from the Supreme coprt OF the United
States an order from that court al

man for the past ten years In that
time he has buried father. mother.

already suffered one year with tuber-

A gentleman who visited him at his
home during the week told OF his great
nerve as he faces his end with resigna-
ton. but with a determination to
plough through IL heroically. He has
isolated himself in the upper portion
of his home and from there superyises
the direction OF affairs. His two small
children are being reared by sister
who is keeping house for him and
everything about the place is i'm

ExcrTRxENT Az IRON RIVER

Visitors from Iron River during the
week told of the excitement over there
over the village election last Monday.
II seems that but one ticket had been
nominated and that the matter rested
at that until too late 10 hle second
ticket
At any rate second ticket was
offered and rejected because those en-
gineering II had not followed the law
and that caused lot of kicking. There
were a number on the ticket printed
that had been in Iron River but com
paratiyely short time and that fact
aroused the ire Of the old timers who
got out quite a vote. Pat Kelly. for
president, got 100 votes all written on
the ballot by those who objected TO the
printed ticket

Johnson. an old resident OF Iron River
and man who has been prominent In

OBJECTS TO STREET BEGGING
Local Business Van Says That We
Have Local Burden Enough

There IS one thing that wish to
call attention to- said ID. NJ. Ross TO
City Attorney Fraser last Tuesday
morning, And that Is these outside
solicitors that go about this town beg
ging. | mention this because a young
man called upon me yesterday with
certificate from the county clerk cer-
tifying that the letter produced was
genuine. Many people are fooled by
such certificates and give aid TO beg
gars that are frauds. This young man
had long list of names OF local per
sons on his paper showing that he got
a lot OF money in this town.
When ! questioned him closely he
dug down into his pocket and produced
a paper which was permit from the
commercial club OF Menominee allow
ing the man TO solicit in that city for
one day. They have an admirable sys-
tenn in Menominee Judging from that
document and some such regulation
should be made here.
I'VE have a number of needy fam
ilies In Crystal Falls and many per-
sons are giving TO charity more right
now than they can afford in order TO
help out our own people. For that rea-
son think that these outsiders should
be looked over pretty closely and none
excepting the very worthy ones al
lowed to solicit in this city"
Mr.. Frazer replied that there is ar
ordinance against soliciting or begging
on the public streets of this city and
that no one has right TO solicit with
out the authority OF the city. IL they do
go about, IL Is the duty of the people
