At the invitation of Rev. and Mrs.

"While the guests were feathering

The pastor tben called tbe meeting
to order and a delightful informal

out of his own experience, some helpful interest of his past life. Very

The acceptance by tbs United

tbe West Indies ends a long series
of negotiations looking to tbat end.
In yio current number of tbe Review of Reviews ia au article on tbis
subject and fror£ this we extract the
following wbicb we think will be of
interest to Sentinel readers as sll
should desire to know something of
our new possessions.
These islands, three in number,
St. Thomas, St. Croix and St. John,
lie 40 miles southeast of Porto Rico,
now a dependency of this country.
These islands bave a combined area
of only 133 square miles vr quite a
bit less than four of cur townships.
Only one of them, St. Croix, is said
\o be of any value for agricultnral
purposes. Indeed tbe chief or only
reason for tbe purchase is tbeir a*e
aa a naval station and to prevent
tbeir acquieitiaen for such purpose
tty* any foreign power. The price
paid ($25,0 )0,000i would seem to be a
huge sum for so minute a purchase,
deetitute as it is of any mineral or
forest wealth. This is about 3X
times the sum paid  for   Alaska,   tbat

tbe city were calling to the people to
assemble at tbeir various places of

suffering had long called forth the
sympathy of loving friends, took its
flight acd th6 long struggle was over.
Mrs. Mary A. Sanford, whose maiden name was Griunelr. was born in
Mt. Pleasant Oct. 9, 1867, and all Jher
life has been spent in tbat .city and
Ciare, save a brief residence in Ann
Arbor. In September, 18-6, she was
united in marriage to Fred C. Sanford,
then a student in the medicai depart
ment of the University and tbey resided in Ann Arbor one year till he
completed his course. About 2*5 years
ago they came to this city where
their home has since been. For four
years Mrs. Sanford has been a confirmed invalid, gradually tailing in
spite of ail that loving hands could
;1o to better her condition. Death
was indeed a welcome relief after the
long fight and surfering.
The funeral, in charge of Rev.
Bennett, wae held at the home on
Tuesday afternoon. The casket was
literally buried in flowers, tbe gift of
loving friends who gathered to pay
their last tribute to their departed
friend.
Beside tbe husband and son, Mrs.
Sanford leaves her mother and one
brother. She became a member of
the Disciple church at Mt. Pleasant

If tbis attempt is not successful,

Tbat we shall make war together
and together make peace. We
shall give general financial supt-.

Mexico is to reconquer the rbst

You are instructed to inform the

initiative, should communicate'
with Japan suggesting adherence

W. A. Harper of Middleville. Secy
of the State Live Stock Sanitary Commission, was in this county on Friday of laat week to look up the question of rabies in tbe weet part of the
couuty. As a result he has ordered a
strict quarantine of all tbe dogs in
tbe county for the period of 90 days,
or until June 1. He came bere from

be had just ordered a like quarantine.
Mr. Harper jnforms us that there
seems to be an epidemic of rabies,
tbe counties of Kent. Ottawa, Aiie-
gan, Muskegon and Oceana being
now under ouaraDtiue and seme
other counties likely to be very soon.
The facts out of which the action
in this county grew we are informed
are as fojlowa: The dog of Harry
Hiscock, wbo lives near Windover
Lake, was fastened at night in tbe
barn with bis horses and cattle, but
of course not tied. One morning laat
week tbe animal seemed to be making a great outcry and when Mr.
Hiscock went to the barn he found
the dog acting in a very strange man
ner and soon found he had bitten al.
the cows. When he couid reach the
horae stable he bit all the horses, aiso
snapped at Mr. Hiscock but fortu-
j nately did cot bite through hie pants.
