THE ALEXANDER CASE

People generally in this locality,
being interested as they are in the
matter of the robbery of the Clio
State Bank, will learn with interest
that Alexander's case has been strick-
en- from the docket of the present
term of the Supreme Court and con-
tinued. This would seem to indicate
that the case may be brought
up for review at some future term
Of that court. The report that Alex
ander had been freed by the Supreme
Court is very evidently erroneous.
The Supreme Court would not, we
believe, have power to discharge such
a prisoner, but would have power to
order retrial Of the case in the cir
cult court.

JUST A REMINDER

We want to remind those of our
friends who may be in arrears on
subscription that the first of the year,
general time of liquidation, is here
and that we actually need whatever
may be coming to us in order to
keep square with the world" We
dislike to recount the efforts we have
made to make The Messenger accept
able to you-worth the money we ask
for it. If we were to tell you of
these efforts you would scarcely cred
it us with sincerity, and we could
scarcely blame you, because it would
take actual experience on your part
to realize the facts. But if you will
think of all the special articles that
appear in these columns within the
space Of year, devoted to this spec
ial interest or the other special inter-
est, to assuaging the feelings Of grief,
or promoting occasions of joy, or
helping on some worthy cause, all of
which is done, and gladly done, with
out money and without price, you will
realize, perhaps, that we have had
an ideal as well as profitable goal
in view. Because of these facts we
consider that we are entitled to your
friendly consideration in the matter
of pay, that vital matter which must
have a very important bearing upon
the character of the service which we
shall be able to render in the year to
come. Our mailing list has been cor
rected to date; read the address on
your paper and see how your account
stands. If there is an error in the
figures we shall be glad to correct it :
it not, and you are in arrears, we
shall very much appreciate a settle
ment. We expect to be obliged with
in the next two weeks to send out
statements of subscription arrearage.
Anyone whose account is in that con-
dition can obviate the receipt of such
reminder by either settling the ac-
count or calling at the office and ar
ranging for settlement later on.

: MATRIMONIAL
- Sniih-partridge

A quiet wedding, which came as
rather delightful surprise to the host
and hostess, who were unsuspectingly
entertaining the prospective bride
and groom, was held at the home of
Mr.. and Mrs. Earl Shorten on Satur-
day, December 31st, at which time
Mr.. Shorten's aunt, Mrs. Alice f.
Smith, was united in marriage to Os-
car Partridge. Mrs. Smith had been
visitor at the Shorten home during
the day, later Mr.. Partridge called,
still later Rev. Mr.. Dibley, and then
things began to happen. The bride
and groom assumed their positions
at the bottom of the staircase, Mrs.
Shorten was wheeled out on her bed,
where she could get a view of the
proceedings, likewise Mr.. Shorten in
his wheel chair, and in a very short
space of time the clergyman had said
the words that made the happy couple
man and wife, the host and hostess
signing the certificate as witnesses.
The bride and groom both reside in
Flint, which city, we understand, will
continue to be their home.
