Policeman Masten Shot
The people of Ann Arbor are greatly
wrought up over the shooting* of Chief
of Police-Masten, who was attempting
the arrest of Ravmond Kent; at the
home of Geo. Randall -Saturday evening. Eent fired a charge of No. 4 shot
at the short range of about twelve feet
into the officer's abdomen and he is
now in the University hospital fighting for his life. The othei police officers and many citizens are putting
forth every effort to capture Kent and
should it be accomplished, there is
strong threats of lynching and in fact
for hours Saturday night after the
shooting many of the citizens were
seen carrying rope for the purpose of
stretching his neck if found. Kent's
mother, brother and sister are hopeful
of his arrest that they may know
where he is. Kent had been in a row
with a colored man during the evening and about 11 o'clock went home
for his shotgun but finding that he
had no shells, took the gun and went
to the Randall home and asked for
shells whieh when Randall gave him
six he said, "I am going nigger hunting." He put two of them ia his gun
when the officers appeared and without warning the deadly shot was fired.
The city council are offering a reward
of $500 for Ken't capture, dead or alive.
A "frightful Catastrophe."
A crowd of Milan young people,
(tradition says that the ladies were
attired in spotless white dresses and
shoes to match), went in a hay rack
to a shadow social held at a farm
home. They started all right until
the driver pulled out by the fence for
better wheeling. It was dark and
they did not see tbe ditch near the
fence aud the catastrophe followed.
The occupants were thrown out into
the water and mud. No one was injured but '.he dresses were no longer
spotless and the shoes—well, you can
imagine their condition. But the
young folks went to the social and report has it that they never had a better time.

IF YOU  WANT A   BIG   BARGAIN   BE  SURE  TO   READ  AND  HEED
THIS ANNOUNCEMENT.
Every summer we do a large renting: business tb resorters and cottag-.
ers, and this year "we furnished more
pianos than ever before. Now, at the
height of the fall trade, when our
wareroonis are already filled with
new pianos, back come the rented instruments and we have no room, for
them. Therefore we are forced to
either store them at great expense,
or so reduce the prices that a speedy
clearance of the entire lot will be
assured. We have chosen the latter
course and are now condiicting the
greatest sale of high-grade pianos
-Jver known in this country.
Such makes as Steinway, Grinnell
Bros., Sohnier, ICnabe, Weber, Sterling, Chickering, Haines Bros., Vose,
etc., etc., are included in the sale,
and- all are marked at astounding
reductions, making them without
question the biggest bargains ever offered by this or any other house.
Every piano is*"in first-class condition, in fact, most of them were new
three months ago and the little nse
they have received, in excellent
homes, has not harmed thern a particle. Yet because we have no room
and must dispose of these fine instruments at once, we are selling elegant
upright" pianos at 5115, 5125, 5142,
?lo5, ?165, §17S, '§197 and upwards,
representing savings of 550, $75, $100,
and more. Square pianos at $25, $35,
|4S, ancl up to 5S0.
Very easy payment terms will be
arranged at no advance in p*-:cc. and
we vrill furnish, free, fine stool an*i
drape with each piano. Will also pay
freight to any address. Every piano
is guaranteed exactly as represented
and our guarantee is backed by a capital of over one million dollars.
This wonderful sale lasts but a few
days longer and. as tlie bargains are
going fast, we tirge you to visit our
j store or write us at once. Tou will
• never have another such opportunity
J for money-saving and you should not
j fail to take advantage of it.
