Mrs. Mary Heuxy.
A telegram was received Saturday
morning announcing the death of Mrs.
Mary Henry at Itfapanee, • Ont. She
was the mother of - Mrs. TS. Bicknell
and Mrs. J. Eeighner of this city, who
with.IST. Bicknell left Saturday afternoon to pay. their last respects to the
deceased.
Mrs. Henry was born in Scotland
about 78 years ago. Besides the children above mentioned she leaves a
daughter residing in Florida and another daughter and three sons at Nap-
anee.
Mrs, James Alger. -.
The entire community was surprised
and pained to learn Wednesday morning that Edna J., wife of James ' E.
Alger, had passed away at 11:30 of
Tuesday night. About five weeks ago
a baby boy was born to them but two
weeks ago left the world again. Mrs.
Alger was believed to be on the . way
to recovery and the announcement of
her death came with overwhelming]
suddenness.
Edna Stringer was born* in Tuscola
county, September 2, 1860.. She was
married to James Alger Becember 24,
1891, at Yassar. Since coming to Clare
she has, by her quiet, lovable manner,
won a warm place in the hearts of all.
A prayer was offered at the house
by Bev. A. H. Coors, the funeral service to be held at the home of her parents in Yassar. A large concourse of
sorrowing friends and relatives followed the body to the depot.
It is sad to think that the mother
did not reach the bedside uhtil: --after
the daughter had passed away. The
bereaved husband has the sympathy
of all in this, his double loss.
ABOUT OUR NEIGHBORS.
.Just Like Hina.
The Lansing State Eepubliean has
the following highly compliinentary
paragraph relative to Secretary of the
Senate B. E. Alward of  Clare.    No
further comments are needful:
Eor the first time in the history of
the Michigan legislature the copy for
the senate calendar was placed with
the printer within one day after the
fifty-day limit for ihe introductibn. of
bills. This has necessitated much laborious work on the part of Secretary
Alward, and many nights the gas in
his office has burned after midnight
compiling and preparing this impor--
tant document. The calendar is pf inestimable value to the members, as it
only needs a glance to locate any bill
introduced. This bit of work speaks
volusnes for the efficiency and hustling
qualities of Mr. Alward, who has the
assurance of the state printers that
the'work Will be rushed at their" end.

(From Evart Review.)
On Feb. 6th there came to Evart
from Bunney's logging camp in Hart-
wick, where he had been working for a
couple of weeks, Wm.' Sullivan, who
is wanted at Burand, Shiawassee
county, for the murder of Layton
Leetch and assault with intent to kill
Mrs. Leetch on Jan. 1st, last, and for
whose capture $1,000 reward is offered. He was known in camp as Cannon. He sold his time.at the Evart
house, and went to Chippewa Station
and thence to Plato & Benwick's mill
in search of work, but failing in his
object he started to walk back to* Evart, and stopped at the farm bouse of
Wm. Seeley, east of Evart, now occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Lite,^nd stopped
over nightv Mrs. Lite recognized Sullivan from a newspaper picture she
had seen, although he had a growth of
beard on his face, and she notified
authorities at Burand. Sullivan, (alias
Cannon,) again came to Evart and
tried to procure employment at a local
livery barn and then dropped comb
[pletely out pfqsight, but is supposed to
be at some camp in this part of the
state.

mill saw the moon rising, one night recently, and supposing it to* be a conflagration somewhere near, sounded

T. J. demons had the misfortune to.
cut his left foot quite badly while
working in the woods last Eriday, says
the Earwell Register. He was about
to split a block:of wood when the a*x
caught in a limb overhead and fell,
striking the thick part of the foot,
severing some of the cords. He . had
two stitches placed in it by Br. Evans,
and it will be several weeks before he
can step on it again.
W. H. Martin's residence on Michigan street was discovered to be on fire
about half past four this, morning.
The fire is supposed toha^e originated

not in time to prevent the blowing of
the fire whistles. Bamage about $25,"

in bed amid a shower of plaster and
laths and exclaimed, "Great Scott!

I'll get up in time for that train."—

On the day after the election of
Cleveland, eight years ago, a Ludington woman, Mrs. H. I. Moillot, gave
birth to twins. On the day after the
recent electoral vote was counted,
showing the second election of Cleveland, Mrs. Moillot again became the
mother of twins. We would not fear
to bet a part of our fortune that Mr.
H. I. Moillot of Ludington will oppose
any effort to give Mr. Cleveland a thir.d
term.—Ex.  ,  -
Only five of Osceola's fair lady teachers have mixed marrying with teaching during the past three months. It
is like the boy who wrote the composition on "Man." "Man is divided into
three parts, viz:. The head, the thorax
and the abdomen. The head contains
the brains if there are any; the thorax
the lungs, heart and such; the bowels,
of which there are five, viz: a, e, i, p
and u, and sometimes w and y." A
little mixed teacher, but we hear there
are more to follow.—Clarion.
