A sneak thief entered the "Wabash

We have never yet been able to quite

to platt 40 acres of laud into loOlols, to
be sold at §200 a lot and one=half tlie

Unfortunate humanity may be found
in our midst every day but the following touching case reportedin last week's
Argus seems doubly pitiful:
Last evening a well dressed man of
apparently thirty-five was found crying on the steps of a South Main street
block, and was taken into Werner &
Brenner's. As his cries did not cease,
and nothing could be discovered as to
the reason of them, the jail was telephoned to and Turnkey MeCabe took
him to the jail and gave him abed. He
apparently heard nothing that was said
to him, although spoken td in both
English and German, and uttered no
sound except that of sobbing. A^encil
was given, him, but he would not write..
He cried himself to sleep. ; He' had
twenty-six cents and a number of letters
addressed him in German. This morning he was still crying. Dr. Kappeume
down to seo him. Ho was dumb, but
wrote .an excellent hand, and stated he
was from Wisconsin, had.no placotogo
and nobody wanted him.

recently drank a quantity of kerosene

Parties from Toledo are opening up

Some of Ann Arbor's citizens say

get up a "Citizens' ticket" at their
coming spring election, in wnich the

color, or previous servitudeshallbe the

Ann Arbor has this week again had
her semi-occasional episodes in which
a student played port. On Monday
evening a student named Booth was
riding on a motor car which did not
stop to let him off at the exact point
at the crossing he wished, and words
followed, resulting in the engineer,
Geo. Stoll, pushing Booth from the
platform, whereupon the latter drew
his revolver and fired at Stoll, the bullet entering his body near the lower
right rib, but his heavy clothing to
some extent spent the force of the ball,
and doubtless saved his life tis the revolver used was a 32-caliber Smith &
Wesson. As it is the wound is an ugly
One but not fatal. After being shot
Stoll jumped from the car and grappled
with his man, who, with the assistance
of bystanders was overpowered and
taken to jail.

Mrs. Catherine Bartlett, wife of Bev.
J". A. Bartlett, pastor of the Presbyterian church, died at the parsonage,
after a painful illness of ten weeks.
March 18th, aged 51 years.
The funeral service occured Friday,
March 20th, at 2 p. m. and was conducted with appropriateness and much sym-
paty by Bev. Potter, of the M. E,
church, iu the absence of Bev. Edward
P. Bartlett, of Des Moine=, Iowa, detained at Hillsdale by failure to make
connection there with train for Saline
in season for the service.
The singing was of an order too seldom known at private funeral obsequies.
Tender, discrimiuating,soft, with voices
blending iu exquisite harmony,Messrs.
Clark and Bouse and Mrs. Lawrence
and Mrs. Bouse gave to the sad and
solemn service a hallowed presence of
melody that touched all present and
soothed the aching hearts of the be-
reared.
Beautiful llowers, spotless lilies, were
upon the casket, emblems of love from
the dear ones who ministered to the
suffering body and coinforted the der
parting splr.it- At tlie head qf the
casket strati a rare and, lovely piUow of
p,ur.e whi^te roses intermingled with tho
rich green of ferns, siailas. and teuber
b,uds, while aui'ass the face of it, imbedded in immortelles,that sweetest aud
tenderests of human words, "Mother"
shown in its violet setting.
There were present the brother of
the pastor, F. W. Bartlett, esq., of New
Biehmond, Wis., and a large number of
sympathizing friends.
Mrs. Bartlett was" of Huguenot descent on her father's side; descended
from Ethan Allen oil' her mother's side.
She was born aud reared in New York
city where her husband married her,
when in the Quartermaster General's
department with Gen. Arthur, late
President. Mrs. Bartlett was an educated, earnest woman of strong character and great loyalty to her Saviour and
his church on earth. The community
will never know the loss they have sustained as illness has prevented her from
taking her accustomed place in the
ranks of active workers. Her influence would have been largely felt, beneficent alike to the church and the
people at largo.
Bev. Edward P. Bartlett, pastor of
Baptist church, Des Moines, Iowa,
cousin of Rev. J. A. Bartlett, conducted
a touching Memorial service iu the
Presbyterian ehurch Sunday morning.
The music was ot a very high order.
The tribute paid the memory of deceased at once eloquent and truthful.
All present felt the speaker's power.
Mrs. Bartlett will be buried temporarily in our beautiful cemetery. She
will finally rest in Greenwood, beside
her loved ones in that peaceful city of
the dead. She has left a sorely stricken
family. *
Easter will this year come at the
earliest date it has since 18S3. With
the exception of 1S64 this will be the
only March Easter in the present century, and in 1895 Easter comes
on March 25th, within three days of
its earliest coming. The 22nd of
March, 1818, was Easter day and that
was the only time it has fallen at that,
its earliest date in this century. Its
latest date, April 25th, was only
reached once, iu 1S8G, and will not occur again, There have been only two
Easters in the century falling on March
20th so far—in 1S07 and 1819.
