Two Youths Drenched.
Two fresh Adrian youths landed in
Tecumseh Sunday morning* off the D.,
T. & I-, excursion train and undertook
to play up smart by climbing to the
top of the water tower. Henry L.
Jones saw them ou the tower and told
them they had better come down as it
was against the rules. All he got for
his good advice was a volley of curses
aud abuse, so he telephoned the condition of affairs to the waterworks. The
tank was nearly full of water and it
was an easy thing to, overflow it. This
was done and before the young men
could get down they were so thoroughly drenched as if a hose had been turned on them. They left the neighborhood of the toiVer swearing and cursing like troopers and went down by
the river southeast of the railroad
track. Here they took off their wet
outer clothing and spread there on the
ground to dry. They will probably
remember their experience on the Tecumseh water tower for some time to
come.—Tecumseh News.
Foolish Kickers.
At the last session of the legislature
this place was incorporated. A petition, signed by about 90 per cent of
the voters in the district to be incorporated, was sent to Senator Traver
and Representative Benton, asking
that the village of Belleville, Wayne
county, be incorporated. No remonstrance was made to the passage of tiie
bill. Two elections have been made
in the village and the trustees have
proceeded to do business. Some non-
resideuts, who are property Owners
here, do not favor the incorporation,
and are seeking meaus to upset tho
act providing for it.—Belleville cor.

Location For New Depot.
Itis claimed that the Lake Shoie
people have changed their minds in
regard to the site ior the new depot
and will locate it just north of the old
freight car, used as a freight office,
and on the east side of the track. It is
said that the side tracks will be shoit
ened then ?o give free passage from
the depot to the main track.—Min
cheater Enterprise.
New Electric Road.

be generated iu each car by. gasoline,
has been projested from Detroit to Adrian, touching Delray, Woodmere,
Sand Station, Bomulus, French Landing, Belleville, Willis, Whittaker,
Milan, Macon and Tecumseh, with a
spur to Ypsilanti and Ann Arbor from
Belleville. It will enter Detroit on
Fort street, and the managers claim to
have most of the right of way. It U
thought the road will be* built withlu
two years. The name chosen is Detroit, Ypsilanti, Ann Arbor and Adrian Short Line road. It will be double
traciced to Belleville.—Ypsilantian.

British Flag At Jackson.
Someone hoisted a-British flag oyer
the Jackson city hospital and it is not
known whether it was done for a joke
or not but it was hinted that it was at
the request; of a nurse who was a loyal
subject of King Edward, in honor of
the Canadian physicians who were at
this institution but this excuse did not
seem to please a certain Irishman of
the city who. made a protest to the
matron that it be pulled down. The
American nurses also thought a British flag was out of place over an
American institution and it was ordered taken down, leaving the stars and
stripes in sole possession.
Expert in Opening Safes.
William Arnold Jr is getting a reputation for knowing a great deal anout
safe locks and combinations, A few
months ago he was called upon to open
a safe for the Express Co- when the
combination refused to work and performed the task with apparent ease
after several successive failures of
others. ** This morning he was called
to the rescue of Bigalke, the grocer,
and the same success' followed, and
Mr. Bigalke was spared a day's annoyance by an unopened safe.—Times.
