BRISCOES DEFEAT
oWOSSO 5 TO 4
VISITORS EXHIBIT BEST
PLAYING HERE YET.

Owosso's crack baseball team suffered
its fourth; defeat out of "a games this
year, yesterday when the jackson Bris
Goes held down the heavy end of an
to 4 score in game filed with good
hitting and good fielding on the part oil
both teams -.
Evidently outclassed by the men from
Jackson, who are, many of them, form
or big league players, the Owosso play
ers put up game fight and held down
the score of the visitors enough to make
the game interesting from start tc
finish RIP" Hagerman. star hurler
of the Briscoes, was hit frequently by
Owosso boys, but, supported by air
tight fielding he held them down mos,
of the time. Consistent hitting by the
local team pulled in three runs in the
sixth and one other in the ninth ming
while the Briscoes gsrnered their ur
through the game.
Notruns.sw swsre.s scored yby either sidt
until the third inning when the Bris
Goes brought in their first rnn. It was
evident from the first that Owosso was
outclassed. but, playing their best ball
they held the visitors down enough to
make the game worth while.
Last weekend, two victories were
ain chalked mp by iOwosso when the
Corunna city team fell Saturday to the
tune of IA to 5 and on Sunday the
Detroit Milos ALL Stars fell even harde,
to score of Is to 4.
Failure on the part of the Milos to
catch their train Saturday made /,
necessary for the local management tc
hur. iedly schedule game with Corun
ma. Tne game was completely one
sided after the third inning, wher
Owosso settled down and held th,
Corunna team scoreless the rest of the
game.
The Milo game was even more one
sided, the o wosso team taking the first
three innings to settle down as on the
pay before.
The fast Central Products club o.
Detroit has been booked to play hers
this weekend, by "Rube Foster" o
Chicago who is at present backing
games for 70 clubs in the Middle West
The game will be good. the manage
ment promises. for the visiting club ha;
fine reputation and some former biz
leaguers.

LETTER MAKES THREAT OF
DEATH AGAINST HIGGINS.

A letter threatening the life OF
Frrest Higgins, acquitted last week
of the charge in connection with the
death of Lucy Wittum, unless he
leaves the country was revealed for
the first time Monday.
Rumors that Higgins, who is Wis.,
iting brother in Flint, has been
killed, became widely spread through
out the county Sunday evening. The
rumors. were proven groundless when
Higgins visited the sheriff's Office at
Flint Monday morning. The exist
ence of the letter was announced
shortly after.
The letter, which is in the posses
sion of Sheriff Vette, of Genesee
county, was mailed here on July 21.
No signature is attached. The let
ter was printed in coarse letters with
lead pencil.
The communication had been in
the sheriff's office for several days,
but it's existence has been kept quiet.
A most thorough examination with
the view of finding the author is be-
ing made.

FARMERS START
COOP. ELEVATOR
TO OPEN FOR BUSINESS
AUGUST 1.

Incorporation of the Farmers CO.
operative Elevator Company of
Owosso, has now been completed and
the company is ready to begin busi-
ness. 1t is expected that it will open
its doors for business on August 1st.
The new organization by arrange
ment with the present Owosso Ele-
vator and Lumber company will
handle all the farm trade of the
company, with the exception Of the
lumber and city coal business The
two companies will occupy the same
building at the present quarters of
the Elevator company, in West
Owosso.
With a membership Of appfoxis
mately, 200 members, the new farpc
ers' organization is starting business
with the purpose of specializing in
grains, beans, seeds and farm sup
plies. The organization is not in
tended as a protest or retaliation
against any other body, but is mere
ly the natural outgrowth of feel
ing among many farmers that they
should have their own instrument
for marketing their products, say Of
ficers of the company.
The growth of cooperative Or
ganizations. particularly among farm
ers is nationwide in scope and is
daily including more classes of inter
ests and attracting larger groups of
farmers. Such companies as the To-
cal one are the whole means of sell
ing products in many counties in the
West and have been highly success
full.
After long investigation and care
full study of the situation, the mem
bers of the board of directors for the
farmers finally succeeded in leasing
the property in which they will op-
crate, and believe they have obtained
the best in the city. The present
efficiency and excellent location of
the plant will make the beginning of
| operations easier and more success
full in the future, say the members of
the board. The new company is a
member of the Michigan Elevator
Exchange, and thus is linked up with
| 100 other elevators around the state,
which connection is expected to fa-
cilitate the work of the company.
L. L. Laing, the present manager
of the west side elevator is to be
retained by the farmers, at least fol
the present, as their manager.
The members of the board of di-
rectors which has effected the or
ganization and perfecting of the new
company is as follows: Phil Shepard
president; F. c. Reynolds, vice-pres.
ident; George Fauth, secretary and
treasurer; G.. M. Getman, Henry
Shredder, E. E. Candekarr and
Claude Wright.
