Retiring; Mayor Richards Gave Good Talk. —Inaugural of Hew Mayor

Given in Full

Commending an economic admin­istration as the best means to bet­ter the city's welfare, Mayor Austin Richards stepped from the mayor's chair Monday night and Howard Stocom took his oath of office and likewise tiie position which Mr. Richards has held creditably for the past two years.

In his farewell address Mr. Rich­ards stated that although they had been criticised by a few, yet he was proud of the progress Cornnna had made toward clearing up the finan­cial burden during the past several years. While his platform bad been an economic one—one that did not light the streets nor bring about many improvements — he pointed ont the fact that the eity is breath* ing easier under its yoke and that the eity's bonds are now considered good security; that every bond that had fallen due had been paid and there is no floating debt for the new council to meet; that there is some money in the hands of the city treasurer which will pay a large bond which fans due next Febru­ary; that a step had been taken toward lighting the streets; that the street car company could be ousted from the streets by the new eonncii, and that many other matten of ssinor importance have been depos­ed of.

Alderman Clarence Welch gave his chair to Aklennaavelect Bandera, loan Hughes turned hit work over to W. E. Jacobs, while Wm. Simeon escorted Fred Peaeoek to the chair he had filled. Aa the new ©ouneil-men took their seats there was a loud applause from thosepreaent.

mayor Richards that the office was indeed a position of honor, he did not agree that anyone would be-

. him the position. Mayor m's inaugural address in full

was as follows: T O the Common Council of the City of Co­

rnnna:— Gentlemen:—

No doubt tbe custom has been followed from rear to year aad ever since tbe organ!ration of jour city aa snch for the incoming major to ad drees this body, setting- torth the condition of eity affairs, enumerating Its moot needed improvement* as they appear to aim, aad out­lining a policy to be punned during the com­ing twelve months.

In accord*nee with this precedent I take liberty to submit the following:

Present Conditions. All admit tbat present conditions in this city

are not what they should be. However, the same can be said of nine-tenths of tbe munici­palities of the State. And we are not sure but that to be aware of such a condition by tbe cftJaea* tn general is a food fortune when we remember tbat decay. Ions, and ruin follow outy when-taoe* who shooM be BUM* concerned sit Ml? by, apparently satisfied with their sur­roundings and with no ambition for their bet* terment.

aome years ago this city became of necessity heavily burdened, This at onee forced the city government to arrange to meet these obliga­tions rather than to expend the city's funds for noticeable improvements. The result was that these same officials were unjustly criticised by many and were accused of not having the city's welfare at heart. Bet at this time all must acknowledge the wisdom »f these same men for, while we hare been deprive*: of many ctty conveniences, yet daring the last five years the city Indebtedness has been reduced by more than SUjNa. In fact bat few of the many heavily burbened cities of Mienlgaa can prod"-* *o creditable A showing aad tbe time Is 'JO* far distant wben we c r * hope foe and rightly et jieet mate liberal expenditures for f. nolle n .

We are net sure that t a i l subject shonid be brought before this boby. nevertheless, many Twmntsinls reach the eeumefl during a year of msnfcmnt service and, name the ttltphun-s his. public aeeeantty, then Is no reason why the eny government B M U B mm give me snnyeei due consideration.

• J. RAM8KT, Jr. The above telegram which

pnbliahed in exchangee last caused many people to easier. Alms, an enterprising little villages little further north on the Ann Arbor road, came within a hair's breadth of landing the Owoa­so ear shops ss they offered a site of forty acres snd a bonus of $56,000 to the company if they would move.

Corunus is mtcfented in the con­ditions but is unable on account of several causes, to give a financial aid. The Cornell farm, which must be purchased, in order to secure the location demanded by the company, and which is in this city, should re­ceive the attention of the people of Cornnna but they are puzzeled how to proceed. Mr. Cornell does not wish to sell part of his farm and al­low switches to run up to his barn but is willing to sell at a nominal sum but how to raise the money is the question.

On. tbe sale of the lots which the Improvement Association in Owos­so has plotted out the land pur­chased and which will net be used by the company, depends the suc­cess of the entire project. The price is $125 per lot. Each lot is num­bered and the purchaser draws a number but does not know the exact location of the land until every number is sold. A few have been disposed of but the bulk is still in the hands of the committee appoint­ed to superintend the work.

A canvass made at the Owosso shops s days ago showed that 57 employes of the company are pay­ing for their homes in Owosso on a contract snd that 107 have homes in Owosso fully paid for.

A large sum will be expended on tlsti'entore roadbed this sffajtner and several new ea ines, larger than any used on the road at the present time, have been purenssed. Other improvements are found necessary by tho officials.

A general feeling of gratitude to the directors of the company for their ehosing Owoaso in preference to Alma has b en expressed among the people of the two cities. The offer from Alma was tempting enough but a little thought towards the employes was given by the offi­cials.

If the taxpayers of this county signify a desire for good roads at the August election, a board of three county road commissioners will be appointed who will act until tiie first regular election when they or their flsTsHps^u^ajtyty^nffB a~

chosen during the meantime as nominees, will be The power of the commissioners wilt be limited in this manner: They may spend two dollars on each $1,000 of assessed valuation. It is estimated tbat the sum, $43,000, raised here would build about two miles of gravel road in each one of the sixteen townships. If the coun­ty wishes later to be bonded for a county system it will be an opera­tion entirely independent ana the taxpayers would have to vote on the proposition at a regular or special election. The reward system of roads will be worked out entirely separate as far as the money is con­cerned, but along the same manner as the county system.

New York, April 15.—The greatest marine disaster in the history of the world occurred Sunday night when tbe Titanic of the White Star Line, the biggest and finest of steamships, shattered herself against an iceberg and sank with 1,324 of her passengers and crew in less than four hours.

Out of 2.200 people she carried only 8C0 were tonight known to be saved. Most* of these were women and children. They were picked up from small boats by \ne Ounarder Carpethia which found, when she ended her desperate race, against time, a sea strewn with the wreckage of the last ship and the bodies of drowned men and women.

Among tbe 1,310 passengers of the giant liner were: Col. John J. Astor and his wife, Isidor Straus. Major Archibald \V. Butt. George B. Widener and Mrs. Widener of Philadelphia, Mr. and Mrs. Henry S. Harper. Wm. T. Stead, the London journalist, and many more whose name*; are known on both sides of the Atlantic. The news that few besides women and children were saved has caused tbe greatest apprehension as to the fate of these.

When tbe Titanic plunged headlong against a wall of ice at 10:25 Sun­day night, her fate established that no modern steamship is unsinkahle, and that all of s frr?e passenger list cannot be saved in a liner's small boats. Tbe White-Star line believed that the Titanic was practically invulnerable and insisted, until there was no doubting the full extent of the catasrophe. that she could not sink. The great ship wee the last word in modern scien­tific construction, but she found the ocean floor almost, as quickly as a wooden ship.

On her maiden trip, the Titanic, built and equipped al a cost of $10,000,-000. a floating palace, found ber grave. Swinging from the westerly steam­ship lane at the south of tbe Grand Bank* of Newfoundland to take the direct run to this pott, she hurled her giant bulk against an icebere tbat rose from an immense field drifting unseasonably from the Arctic. Running at high speed into that grim and silent enemy of seafarers, tbe shock crushed her bow. From a happy, comfortable vessel she was converted in a few minute* into a ship of misery and dreadful puffering.

Added to the loss of life is a property lose which will exceed $15,000,000. Speaking of thi* point tonight Vice>PresIdent Franklin, of the White Star line's New York office, said:

"We can replace tbe money, but not the live*. Tt '« horrible." The Titanic struck an iceberg at 10:25 o'clock Surety nijrht. at a point

Ju*t *outh of the Grand Hanks of Newfoundland, WKt mil*-* poutheast of Hal­ifax. Nothing availed to keep the meester liner afloat. At 2r20 o'clock Mon­day morning the great boat plunged to tbe bottom.

Tbe White Star line office* in New York, while keeping up hope to the last, were free to admit tonight that there had been "horrible loss of life."

The Republican *tate convention, for •election of delegates to the national convention held in Bay City on the Uth, was one of most extraordinary feature* in which the state militia and the city's poL~4 force were prominent figures, and the result Is a delegation Composed of Taft supporters and one of Roosevelt adherents. This will give the national convention a very bittei contest to settle a* to which delega tion shall be seated. The two fac tioas fought for control ot the Bay City convention with a fierceness rarely, if ever before, equaled in a Michigan conveotioe. There were some very unusual methode employed there was jftuch hitter incrimination, and finally a split, two <*>nventions, two sets of delegates aad ft; a result not favorable to a harmonioua settle­ment even in tbe national convention, where anal decision as to which dele, gattoa is the legally chosen c t w i l l be made

Beth aides adopted resolutions com­mendatory of candidates they fewer and both maintained their organlsa-tie* the legal one. It was a fight to » finish and both aide* claim to have Won.

BEARINGS PLEAD GUILTY.

Albion Sank Wreck**-* Brought Before Judge Angell in Detroit.

With his gray head bowed, his face seamed and careworn, Henry M. Dear­ing, formerly caahier of the Albion National bank, stood before Judge An­gell in federal court and heard O r k Voorheis read an indictment charging forgery, fraud and misappropriation of funds. Throughout the 20 minutes' reading of the indictment. Palmer M. Dearing, the son, stood straight and erect by the side of hi* father. At the conclusion of the reading both men said "Guilty," iu a tone scarcely heard across the room.

Tbe surprising feature of the indict­ment was the charges made against Addie M. Hollen. tbe stenographer in the office of Palmer M ; Dearing, who was secretary of the Cook Manufac­turing Co. It was Miss Hollen. the federal officers *ay, who forged the numerous notes by which the Albion National bank was abie to hide Its deficit from the bank examiners

Boih the Destines showed the effects of their long stay in jail. Henry M. Dearing. the aned cashier, seemed many years older tban when he was brought to Detroit from Albion to await the action cf the prand jury. The attitude of Palmer M. Dearing, who wa* secretary of ihe Cook Manu­facturing Co., to whose misfortunes the insolvency of the Alhicn bank 1* laid, has the appearance of a man whose spirit is broken.

! Stallkm of Good Form, A none*• height 1« measured tn

bands' (4 laches) from tne summit crf t&e wttaers to tne ground- A typi­cal, ideal draft horae stands orer IS bands (S feet 4 inches) aad under 18 hands high. Tall, leggy horses, tt de­ficient fn weight, width and quality, are undesirable. Such horses often are found affected witb St. Vitus* dance. Exceptionally tail horses (orer 17.2 bands! are difficult to match in pairs and therefore may not meet with ready sale on the market. 8och horses are chiefly need (or sSmgto work or aa tha middle horaea ot three horae team*.

A draft horae should weigh 1,«*0 pounds, or more, in ordinary Sean. Weight ta a draft hone ia ateafateir necessary for the hauling of heavy load*, tt enabiea the horae to derive full benefit from the strength or hia tuuscles, adds to the effect of hla mo-clone: and gives him a Srm grip upon tbe ground. Heavy weight is a use-left* burden when not associated with adequately developed frame and mus­cle. It should be accompanied by vigor and *nergy.

Tbe form ot tae draft horse should broad, deep, massive, evenly pro-

l»rr'.:cned and syrometri'val. tbe entire tnastup suggesting great strength and weight The body should be biocky. and compact, with short, broad, clean, wcII svt Itgs showing fine skin, large Joi:.ls and prominent tendons.

The eurire appearance pf tbe draft •hcrt-e shouM be indicative or strength for heavy hauling. A massive body, set squarely on sturdy legs ia re-Quired.

Good quality ts shown by fine, bright, ailky hair; soft, pliable shin; :la»n, well defined tendons; smooth well developed muscles; strong, smooth bones, tt usually la associated with style, spirit and intelligence in­dicative ot "breeding."

A draft liorse doea moat of hla hard work at the talking gait, it la there­fore important that he should be able to walk fast without tiring. He ahooid be able to walk four miles an ••.our with a load. To do this the action must be perfectly regular, straight and level. Joints must be quickly and fully flexed; feet most be advanced tukd set down without deviation from a straight line. Solea of the feet should turn up and show tbe shoes plainly as the horse moves away Irom the observer, at both walk and trot. The feet should be lifted quick­ly, evenly and be set down squarely and firmly.

There should be aa "paddling." -dishing."' or "winging" io or out, cut­ting or interfering, nor should tbe fore legs swing out or "roil," or the hind legs be carried too close together or too far apart, la Judging of the ac­tion tbe observer must note the move­ments of each leg and foot, tbe handling or each joint and tbe car­riage of the entire body, as tbe horse walks and trots. Watch closely for lameness. Tbe bocks should be car­ried well together when in motion. Rolling, or waddling inlront ia due to too great width of chest. Knee and bock action should both be free and comparatively high. Perfection of ac­tion at the walk is of highest impor­tance in the draft horse.

Tbe draft horse should show a vig­orous, lively, energetic disposition, yet be docile, tractable and intelli­gent. He should be neither sluggish, nor irritable, nor excessively nervous.

.Noticeable rices, as cribbing, wind fucking, weaving, tali switching, shy­ing, biting, kicking, head abating, e t c are undesirable. Sluggishness associated with fat should bo avoided, as tt induces disease. Stupidity, clum­siness, meanness or exce&£U'e nerv. oneness are objectionable and shouid discount the animal

The 'aead should be large, prcpor-ticnate in size to the bod/ and well formed, clean, free from coanKfae a and irregularities.

Strength may be shown in the head as £3 the rest al tbe body, it should be carded well up and balanced

properly upon the neck. The shoulder of a draft horse

should be moderately sloping, smooth and extending well back. A majority of poorly formed draft horses have shoulders which are too steep. ' Occa­sionally the shoulders are too sloping. Either extreme in a draft horse is ob­jectionable. Trouble with collars comes from these causes when the horse is doing heavy palling. The cor­rectly laid shoulder should form a smooth, comfortable bed for the col­lar. Straight or upright shoulders de­tract from easy, free action of the forelegs and generally are found asso­ciated with upright pasterns. The shoulders shonid be smoothly and deeply covered with muscles aad be free from coarseness, roughness, sores and tumors. The withers should be well covered and moderately high.

The forearm, extending from the el' bow to the knee, should be long, wide, heavily muscled and free from coarse­ness. This portion of the body of tbe draft horse, together with the lower thigh (gaskln) of the hind leg, cannot be rattened, but ia composed chiefly of lean muscle and bone. The muscles should be prominent in front and above and the entire part clean and free from puffJness and coarseness.

The knees should be straight, wide, deep, strongly formed and smooth.

So long as these and other Joints are free from puffs, bony growths and meatinees, they cannot well be too large or too strongly developed. Knees should be straight and so set as to perfectly carry the weight of the body. Sprung knees, or "buck knees,'' bent in tbe forward direction are as objectionable aa those or the reverse type which are known aa "calf knees." Examine the knees for blem­ishes and tbe cannons for splMsta close up to the knees. Splints will i s

Crooked or "Sickle" Hock. likely to cause lameness.. Blemishes may Indicate tendency to railing.

Tbe hoofs should be ample in sixer sound, smooth and symmetrical in \shape.

The chest encloses the heart and lrtngs; it should be roomy in every respect. A narrow, shallow chest de notes poor constitution, lack of endur­ance and deficient breathing organs. If too wide tha action tends to wad­dling or rolling. A narrow chest and high knee action often go together. An ample, wide, deep chest denotes vigor, power, strong constitution and easy keeping qualities.

Poor bocXs are a common fault In draft horses. It is important -to im prove this deficiency. To tbat end breeding animals should have good hocks and for work horses this also is Imperative. The bock (not "hind 10)30") is commonly the beat of 3om« one of such diseases as bone and bog (not "blood") spavin, thorough pin and curb. These should be avoided. Tb< joint should loo!; and feel firm, hard and with each bone well define*!, fret from meatincss and of great aim. Thi point of the bock should be prominent clean and sharp sad the tendons un der it straight, distinct, but tree fronr bulging.

125,000 AMERICANS 60 TO CANADA IN 1911.

THE /EAR 1S12 WILL SHOW A GREAT INCREASE.

In a report of the House Committee (Washington> appears the following:

"Canada offers a three-rear home­stead upon good land, easily reclaimed and oultivated. with six months' leave of absence each year and most lenient regulations."

AU of which is true and it is now the part of the careful reader to con­sider toe opportunities tbat exist in W**tern Canada which, in addition to tee above, are attractive features. Tbe evident1* of these is found 1» the tetter* contributed by some of tbe settlers. For instance: A former Min-nesotan, writing from Warner, South­ern Alberta, speaks of tbat district, but what he says, applies generally to all of Southern Alberta. He says:

"I have seen sis crops, four of them were first class, one of them a very good crop, and the other a peer crop. Government statistics for tbe last fif­teen years enow that this country has averaged about fifteen or sixteen laches of moisture. In 1510 there waa only seven incnea, and ia 1911 twenty-two inches. The 1*0» crop was about as good aa f have seen in this com> try and we had about twelve inches of moisture, so that I aa thoroughly con­vinced that with normal conditions* that la, frost twelve to fifteen inches of moisture, aad with the natural in­crease of population sad Immigration, that Southern Alberta win be one of the very best aslxed farming districts in the world. We have good eoi!, good water, and a good climate, and alto­gether' Jest as desirable a country to live in as. Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa, or Wisconsin."

Hundreds of letters are on file from former American settlers, which give good reasons why the Western Can­ada lands are being settled ao rapidly. Full particulars can be had of any Ca­nadian Government Agent, who will furnish literature and give tow rate certificates. Excursions are being run dally.

A Believer. Gilford Plncbctt, at his brother's

house, in park avenue, New York, lis­tened quizzically to a political story that waa being submitted to him for veriftcatio nby a popular reporter.

"When the reporter finished his nar­rative Mr, Pincbot laughed and said:

"I'll reply to tbat as the old Italian per sent replied to the statement that hla fellow-countryman loved birds too well ever to eat tbem:

" "Well, 1 don't mind believing that myself.' the old man said, 'but there's a good many who wouldn't.'"

Markswomanship. MI am afraid those militant auffra-

genes a re going to give us serious trouble," said ons London policeman. "They mean business."

"Why do you think so?" inquired the other.

"A lot of them have quit giving pa­rades and making p)»eeohe« aiid are practicing with quoits and baseballs."

two old maids were planning for the holiday.

"Sister Mallie," said the younger, "would a long stocking hold all you want for a Christmas gift?"

"No. Elvira," said the older, "but a pair of socks would."

Cold storage men have begun to pick up eggs in this county for their cold storage houses. April eggs, when sold on the winter market, always bring high prices but from the money that is being paid at pres­ent for eggs for that purpose, it is evident that the same prices will prevail next winter that have been current for the last few months.

Farmers about the county are sowing their clover seed, setting fence posts, and ditching low lands. Plowing has been commenced in some localities on sandy soil and it is thought that spring is as far ad­vanced at present as usual at this time of the year. The land has been drying rapidly the last few days and if there are no more hard rains, agriculturists ought not to com­plain.

Some farmers are speculating on the results of the sowing of broom corn in Shiawassee county soil. At present the price has Beared 1300 per ton and as poultry will eat the seed, it should ne one of the most profitable crops on a farm. Old set­tlers tell ns that broom corn did grow in this locality in the pioneer days. Alfalfa is another crop that is receiving quite a little attention nowadays.

At a meeting of the senior class Monday afternoon Prof. Walsworth announced that he had aeeured Prof. Henderson, of the tt. of M. faculty, to deliver ta sdufossat the eofsmeocemeut exercises which win beheld *t the Casino W _ evening, June 19. Prof, ttender-son comes well recommended as a speaker and favorably impressed those who heard him at the teachers' institute which was held in Owosso last winter.

The elass will endeavor to secure Bev. C. H. Hanks, of Owosso, to deliver tbe baccalaureate address which will be held at the Baptist chureh Sunday evening, June 16. Bev. Hanks delivered tne address last year and it was the desire of every member of the elass that he might be secured again this year.

The juniors have begun to prac­tice their play at the casino.

The junior reception to the sen­iors will be held Thursday evening, June 20, at the casino.

The last quarter began Monday and report cards were given out.

The girls, in appreciation of the services of Miss Edith Bandfield as instructor and coach, presented her with a spoon, i he boys are raising the question whether or no Miss Bandneid ia not able to eat with a knife and fork.

THE BANQUET Last Friday evening the junior

and senior girls, who represented their classes in the basket ball aeries, benquetted the victors, the soph-more girls. Bach girl was given the privilege of inviting one boy friend and there were thirty to sit down to supper at the Maccabee hall. After the meal various means of entertainment were provided for. For example, Claire Allan enter­tained himself in the kitchen and declares that scarcely eVer before has he seen so many good things to eat. Edwin Almendinger carried off the prize, a 'peanut'doll, in the peanut race. Manning Hathaway was the most successful in the ad vertising guessing contest and won a box of candy. Dancing (?) was also enjoyed. The finger howl can* not be forgotten, the use of which was one of the features of the even­ing. It was nearly two o'clock be­fore the party broke np, and it must be said that it was one of the most enjoyable events eve- furnished by the school.

BASE BALL About fifteen candidates for the

base ball team responded to a call sent out by Captain Allan Monday and hope springs np in the hearts of the few ardent followers of the game in this city. The battery is the greatest proposition Coach Corn­ford will have to solve, when the other positions will be easily tilled. There is u lar»e number of recruits to be tried out and several are very promising, t.nt the entire number lack the experience necessary for even a high scu^i team. A prac­tice game has U-<-n arranged with the factory team i or Saturday r.fte?*-noon, and the higii school does not entertain mnch hop. of winning, but wish to learn the "xact calibre of the team. Each candidate will be given a chance at any position be may wish. Allan, Pardonnett and Bailey ar? the pitching hopes; Tap­house, Kaiser, Almendinger, Mason and any of tbe a?[firing pitchers are able to fill the infleld; tiolloway, Cassidy and several youngstces are playing the field. The game Satur­day will begin at three o'clock.

American stage two character de­lineations, "Z*ke" and "Daisy" which Jst*nd alone as laugh pro­ducers, and one wonders ut the un­adulterated simplicity which charac­terizes those two excruciatingly funny creations; but the play has also its serioas side of life, which brings into action an exceptionally strong company of artists. "The Missouri Girl is remarkable for the attention which is given to the details in the elaborate settings and accessories giving the play a most realistic effect. During the action of the play novel musical numbers, songs and dauees are introduced. The oftener the public see "The Missouri Girl," the oftener they want to see it. It is undoubtedly the greatest self-advertising play on tbe American stage today. That is the reason why it has been seen hy millions of the theatre-goers during its years before the public, it pleases ail classes; hence its unpre­cedented success. "The Missouri Girl" will be at Owosso Theatre Saturday, April 20.

WIND DOES DAMAGE

Miniature Cyclase County Sunday.

ia

Traveling in a path little more than 200 feet wide, the severe wind and hailstorm which swept over Du­rand Sunday did considerable dam­age. Trees were uprooted, tele­graph and telephone poles broken off, chimneys blown down and win­dows broken. No injuries are re­ported.

A house which is being built for Mrs. Hattie Place by Arthur Den-nison, contractor, was blown from its foundation and demolished. The Grand Trunk freight sheds were partially unroofed. The storm broke at 2:30 o'eloek and rain fell in tor­rents for about 10 minutes. This was followed by a heavy hailstorm which played havoc with the win­dows of the town. Hailstones fell whieh were as large as small eggs.

At Vernon several bams were blown down and others lost their roofs. Considerable damage was also done at Lennon.

A miniature cyclone was experi­enced in the western part of Owosso Sunday. Several outbuildings were tipped over, small trees were broken aad a table in the rear of the home of Frank Bessinger was picked up and carried into the air fully twenty feet. Two large oak trees on East Oliver street were also blown down. The storm lasted only a short time. r t T A T K OF M I C H I G A N . In th* Circuit Court

The westerner nnds Letty Ul from hard work, but she recovers and Ruggles end T>a» invite hei to supper. She asks Dan to rmttd a home for disappointed the. atric&l people. Dan visits I,Hy, for the tlrr:e forgetting Let ty . and later an­nounces h?s engagement to the duchess. Let ty refuses to s ing for an entertain­ment given by L i l y .

Rugtfl*** thinks the westerner shotild not marry a pubPc efr^er.

CHAPTER XXIV.—Continued. He wanted to tell her that tbe Sir!

Dan married should be the kind of woman his mother was, but Rnggies couldn't bring himself to say the words'. Now. as he sat near her, he was growing so complex that hi* brain wss turning round. He beard her murmur:

"I tcld you I knew your act, Mr. Ruggles. It isn't any use." ,

This brought hiru back to bia posi­tion and once mere he leaned toward hi*r and, in a different tone from the one he had intended to use, mur­mured:

"Vou don't know. You haven't any Idta. I do ask you to let I ten *o. that's a fact. 1 have got somethtne 1 else to propose iu its place. It ain't quire the same, but it is clear—roarrj me!"

She gave a little cxolamation. A slight smile rippled over her i?i*> like tlie sunset across a pale pool at dawn,

"Laugh." he said humbly, "don't keep In. I know I am old-fashioned as the deuce, aud me and Dan is quite a contrast, but I mean just wbat I say, my dear."

She controlled her amusement. If it was thau It almost made her cry with mirth, and she couldn't help it-Between iaugbiug breaths sbe said to bim:

"Oh. Is It all for Dan's sake, Mr. Ruggles? is it?" And then, biting her lips and looking at him oat of her beautiful eyes, she said: "I know It is—l know it Is—I beg your par­don."*

"I asked a girl once when I waa poor—too poor. Now this is the sec­ond time in my life. I mean Just what I say. ITi make you a kind husband I am fifty-five, hale as a nut. I dare say you have had many better of­fers."

"Oh. dear." she breathed; oh, dear, please—please stop!"

"But I don't expect you to marry me fOT anything but my money."

Ruggles put bis cigar down on the edpe of the table. He looked at his chair meditatively, he took out his silk handkerchief, polished up his glasses, readjusted them, put them on and then looked at her.

"Now," he said, "I am going to trust you with something, and I know you will keep my secret for me.

*1f yoa give him up fn divide with the boy aad he rich eaoagh still to hand over to my wife all aha wants to spend.'*

She turned her face away from him and leaned her head once more upon ber hands. He heard her softly mur­muring tinder ber breath, with an ab­sent look on ber face, accompanied by a still more incomprehensible smile.

"That's bow it stands," be copcluJ-ed.

She seemed to have forgo"ea him entirely, and be caught hia breath when she turned about Plrufrfly and said:

"My goodness, how fAan will hate being poor! He will have, to sell all hits stickpins and his rsotor cars and all the things he has g'"ren me. It will be quite a little to start on, but he will hate it. he is co very smart."

"Why, you dont mean to say—" Rusgtes gasped.

And with a c^artr.ing smile as she rose to put their conversation at an end. she said:

" "Why. you don't mean ta say that you thought I wouldn't stand by him?" She seemed, as she put her bands upon her hips witb something of a defiant look at the elder man, as though she just then Btood hy her pau­perized lover.

**!• Xbought you cared some for the boy," Ruggles said.

"Well. I am showing it." "You want to ruin him to shew it.

do you?" As though he tbought the subject

dismissed he walked heavily coward

41a*- him to return at earn* to the Sa voy. aad Ruggles, his heart hammer ing like a trip hammer, rubbed up to his room*, made ao evening to?!*t. for it waa then half-past seven, threw bis cravats and collars all around the place, cursed like a miner as he got into his clothes, and red almost to apoplexy, nervous and full of emo­tion, he returned to tbe rooms be had left not three hours before.

The three hours bad been busy ones at tbe actress' apartment. Letty Lane's sitting-room was full of trunks, dressing bags and traveling parapher­nalia. She came forward out of what seemed a world of confusion, dressed fia though for a journey, even her veil and her gloves denoting her departure. She spoke hurriedly aud almost with­out politeness.

"I have sent for you to come and sre me here. Not a soul in London knows 1 am goiftg away. There will be A dreadful row at the theater, but that's* none of your affairs. Now, l wai;t you to tell me before I go just whfit you are going to do for Dan."

"JiVho are you going with?" Ruggles aski><l shortly, and she flashed at him:

"Well, really, I don't think tbat is any of your business. When you drive s woman as you have driven me, she will go far."

lie interrupted her vehemently, not dnrtng to take ber hand, "I couldn't do more. I bave asked yoo to marry me. I couldn't do more I stand by what I have said. Will you?" he starr mered.

Hie knew men. She looked at him

he had signally failed, and as a sud­den resentment rose In blm he ex­claimed, almost brutally:

"I am darned glad the old man is dead; I am glad bis mother's dead, and I am glad I hare got no son."

The next moment she waa at his side, and he felt that she clung to his arm. Her sensitive, beautiful face, all drawn with emotion, was raised to his.

"Ob. youTl kill me—youll kill me! Just look bow very ill 1 am: yoo are making me crazy. I just worship him."

"Give him up, then." said Ruggles steadily.

She faltered: "I can't—I can't—it won't be for long"—with a terrible pa­thos in her voice. "You don't know how different I can be: you don't know what a new life we were going to lead."

Stammering, and with Intense mean­ing, Ruggles, looking down at her, said: "My dear child—my dear child."

In his few words something per haps made her see in a flash her past

This j and what the question really was. She shows you a little bit of what I think j dropped Ruggles' arm. She stood for about you. Dan Blair hasn't got a red 1 a moment with ber arms folded across cent. He bas nothing but what I give him. There's a false title to ail that land on the Bentiey claim. The whole thing came up when I was home and the original company, of which I own three-quarters of the stock, holds the dear titles to the Blairtown mines. It all belongs now to me, if I choose to present my documents. Dan knows nothing about this—not a word."

The ac'.ress had never come up to su<b a dramatic point in any of her pkys. With her hards folded in her lap she looked at him steadily, and he could not understand the. expres­sion that crossed htr face. He heard her exclamation: "Oh. gracious!"

"I've brought the papers back with me," said the westerner, "and it Is between you and me how we act. If Dan marries you I will be bound to do what old Blair wo' ld have done— cut him off—let him feel his feet on the ground, and the result or his own folly."

lie had takon his glasses off while he made this abortion, them cn a&ain.

her breast, her head bent down, and the man at tbe door waited, feeling that Dan's whole life was in tbe bal­ance of the moment. Wben she spoke agnin her voice was hard and entirely devoid of the lovely appealing quality which brought her so much admira­tion from the public.

"If I give him up," she said slow-ly, "what will you do?"

•Why," he answered. "Ill divide with Dan and ! t things stand just as they are."

She thought again for a moment and then as if she did not want blm to witness—to detect tbe struggle sbe was going through, sbe turned away and walked over toward the window and dismissed blm from there. " P l e a s e go, will you? I warn very much to be alone and tu ihiuk."

"1 told you I woold share with him."

"Then he will be nearly aa rich?4

"Heft hare more than Is good for him."

That satisfied her. Then she par sued. "I want you to stand by him. He will need you."

Ruggles lifted the hand he held and kissed it reverently. "I'D do any­thing ycu say—anything you say."

Down-stairs in tfae Savoy, ss Dan had done countless times, Ruggles waited until be saw her motor car carry her and her small luggage and Higglns sway.

From Forty-Five to Fifty Are Mock Benefited by

Lydia E. l%ddiam's Vegetable CompoimcL

The "change of life" is a moat critical period iu a woman's ex­istence, and toe anxiety' felt by women as it draws near Is not without reason.

When her system is in a de-' ranged condition, she may be predisposed to apoplexy, or con­gestion of some organ. At this time, also, cancers and tumors are more liable to form and begin their destructive work.

Such warning symptoms as sense of suffocation, hot flashes, headaches, backaches, dread of impending evil, timidity, sounds in the ears, palpitation of tho heart, sparks before the eyes, irregularities* oonsttpation, vari­able appetite, weakness and inquietude, and dizziness, are promptly heeded by intelligent women who are approach ing toe period in life when woman's jreat change may be expected.

These symptoms are calls from nature for help. The nerves are crying out for assistance and the cry should be heeded in time.

Lydia B\ Rnkham's Vegetable Compouna is prepared to meet the needs of women's system at this trying period of her life. It invigorates and btrengthens the female organism and builds np tlie weakened nerroos syrtem. It has oanied many women safely through this crisis.

Not one, but four important fields will be cultivated by the convention of commercial associations of Michi­gan, which will be held in tbe Hotel Pontchartrain, Detroit, Wednesday ?.nd Thursday, April 17 and 18, under the auspices of the Board of Commerce. It has been decided to expand the Tentative program first announced so that it will include more than the railroad question.

Five me I from each organization in the state have been iuviied to attend the con vein ion and it is expected that a permanent organization will be formed. President Homer Warren bas outlined a tentative program of ac­tivity.

There are four varied fields of labor for a state commercial organization at present. Probably the most important of alt is more and better railroads for Michigan; the second, equitable taxation of all interests its the etate; third, concentrating movement for agricultural development, and fourth, legislation, which is always import­ant. There is no reason, however, why a state organization should be more active in Btate politics than local organizations are in their municipal affairs, thougn a state organization should be expected to look square 'n the face all subjects that would inter­est the slate ae a wbol+v

Tbe Board of Commerce has been corresponding with the state organi­zations in regard to this matter for the pa*t six weeks, particularly for getting widespread interest to assure development of the state agricultural resources.

The topic to be discussed at the two* day meeting will be in the form of In­formation for the representatives who attend, and in order to maVe the meet, ing as broad as possible tbe Board of Commerce is asking the delegates from the various organizations of the state to bring with them a delegation of farmers from their section, who is jii*t as much of a business man as the captain of any other industry.

ATHLETIC SITS UPON MAYOR

Person 'lose Home After the Insult, But Returns After Pondering Well

the Matter and Administers Enduring Rebuke.

St. Paul, Minn.—North St. PauJ has a "fighting parson" in Rev. Martin W. Kinney, who, following an altercation with Mayor Pat Murphy after the close of the Tillage election the o*her night really aad dispassionately laid the militant mayor flat on the floor of the post cUce and, with his knee poignantly planted in the pit of the magistrate*! suffering stomach, l*de him ponder O H the folly or passing t^e lie to a man of the cloth.

Fearing the descending wrath of a righteous man. the mayor, supine and taking three-inch breaths, called on the astound< d spectators, "In the name of the state." not to mention the tame of humanity, to make the parson let him up. This waa done and Mayor Murphy, as gracefully as possible, considering hie hUo recumbent posi­tion, dissolved and floated toward the prairies.

Her. Mr. Kinney Is about Ave feet eight inches high, of medium build, peaceful and kindly-

Mayor Pat Murphy !* about five feet seven inches high, a trifle under me­dium build and probably peaceful by now.

him of permitting the saloons to re­main open on election day. He also mentioned that the mayor, wbo nag elected on a reform ticket, had .gene owr to the other side. Said the mayor:

It Is difficult to make people believe that coffee is a poison to at least one person out of every three, bur. people are slowly finding It out, although thousands of them suffer terribly be­fore they discover the fact.

A New York bote! man says: "Each time after drinking coffee I became restless, nervous and excited, so that I was unable to sit five minutes iu one place, was also inclined to vomit snd suffer from loss of sleep, which got worse and worse.

"A lady said that perhaps coffee was the cause of my trouble, and suggested that I try Postum. I laughed at the thought that coffee hurt me, but Bhe Insisted so hard that I finally had some Postum made. T have been us­ing i t in place of coffee ever since, for I noticed that all my former nervous­ness and irritation disappeared. 1 be­gan to sleep perfectly, and the Postum tasted as good or better than the oM coffee, so what was the «»c oi stick­ing to a beverage tbat was Injuring me?

"One day on an excursion up the country I remarked to a young lady friend on her greatly improved appear­ance. She explained that some time before she had quit using coffee and taken to Postum. She had gained a number of pounds and her former pal­pitation of the heart, humming in tbe ears, trembling of the bands and legs und other disagreeable feelings had disappeared. She recommended me to quit coffee and take Postuui and was very much surprised to find that I had already iiiade the change.

"She said her brother had also v„ ccived great benefits from leaving off coffee and tafcirgon Postum." "There's a reason."

Ke Sat Upon the Mayor,, witnesses. '1 presume I must take this"

The pastor went to his home, evi­dently thinking deeply. A few min­utes later, however, he returned to the business street on an errand and again encountered Mayor Murphy, this time inside the post office. A silence like a still, subzero night followed. Then, like an Icicle, contracting In the cold, the pastor said:

"So I'm a Uar? Come outside; I want to talk to you a minute."

According to spectators, bis tea* of voice did not suggest, however, any­thing particularly violent.

Then the mayor fhrew his arms about Mr. Kinney and informed him he was under arrest. Mr. Kinney, doubting the mayor's authority and also bis grounds for arrest, folded tbe mayor up and sat on him.
