'Happenings qf Interest Gathered for the
"Henefit of Our "Readers.
"Auld Lang Sync."
It was a jolly party of- Jefferson
schoolmates of 3S years ago that met
at tne home of Mr. and Mrs. Frank
Ball, on the evening* of January 80.
After a couple of hours spent in relating incidents and anecdotes of boyhood days, they repaired to the dining
room to partake of an oyster supper
with all the necessary adjuncts. Those
present were H. A. Armstrong, Detroit; G. A. White, Clark's Lake;
Amos Piakett, Jefferson; C. C. Tot-ten,
I. L. Hoeg and Fremont Hewitt of
Brooklyn. Some of the party had not
met in 32 years. After another hour
spent in pleasant conversation^, and
songs of "Auld Lang Syne:' they departed for their homes, each feeling
he had had a glimpse of youthful days.
—Brooklyn Exponent.
Another Fatal Accident.
Jackson was the scene last week of
another fatal accident. Two youths,
named Clarence Barlow and Lewis
Zceller, were to take a party on a
sleighride one evening but as the
sleighing was of a doubtful quality
they took a wagon. When they vrere
about to cross the Michigan Central
tracks, the switchman attempted to
stop the team but without avail.
Either the noise of the wagon prevented the boys from hearing the approach of the train, or they were determined to cross the track ahead of
the train. The horses were struck
and iustantly killed, young Barlow was
found dead and Zoeller was still living,
but he died before morning.

In School Together.
There is rather a strange circumstance in one of the criminal cases
which will come up in the March term
of the circuit court. When Jack Mc-
Gilyray, arrested for a hold-up, was in
the high school there was no brighter
student enrolled than he. In school
with him were Dan Sutton and Andrew Sawyer, Jr.. Thus the man wbo
secured his arrest and the man who
will prosecute him for the crime were
old associates in school. "When I get
out of this I am going to study law and
settle down." declared Jack to the
sheriff.—Ann Arbor News.
