Stranger" Puzzling.
The Michigan Central depot people
found a man -waiting in the station
Monday, afternoon, who had* not a
cent of money or any baggage and
could nbtf speak English or any other
languageHhat the tpsilanti linguists
could manage, though several were
tried on nim._ He appeared intelligent
and was fairly well* dressed and had
a book'in which "was writing" in some
peculiar 'characters, thought to he
Hungarian or Russian. On two slips
of paper .-were other characters "and
on the other Bellevue or Belleville..
A telephone to the latter town brought
no light* on the subject "but Station
Agent Mowrer decided that the man
was probably going to Bellevue, where
a stone quarry and cement factory
employ .many Hungarians and that
he in sqme. way left the train here by
mistake. The police gave him supper
and lodging and then secured transportation for him to Bellevue.—Ypsilantian.

•ciation met Friday, and elected the

Slightly Erroneous.
A somewhat pathetic story was
printed a short time ago about a curly
maple table 75 years old, the alleged
property of Mrs. Ann Eddy, "for whom
Ann Arbor was named," which had
been bought by a Springfield, Ohio,
man to make into violins. The Times
is informed by one who knows that
the table in question was made on
the order of Ephraim Eddy in 1861
by a Hillsdale cabinet maker and is
therefore only 46 years old instead
of possessing the comparatively hoary-
headed antiquity of the table in the
story. The Utuit-: was ine p'/ap-arty
of Ephraim Eddy when he married the
present Mrs. Jane H. Eddy, and
therefore it was not an heirloom of
Mrs. Bddy's family and was sold for
that reason. Sic vale the "75-year-
old curly maple table" going into fiddles.—Ann Arbor Times.
Pleasant Trip.
Harold A. Noble, who graduated
from the engineering, department of
the University last June and who acted as inspector of the concrete work
on the MeClure block, has just returned from a delightful°vacation trip east.
Mr. Noble took the trip down the St.
Lawrence, among the Thousand
Islands and on down the Lachine and
other rapids of the St. Lawrence to
Montreal and Quebec. From Quebec
he went by rail to Chicoutimi, at the
head of navigation ef the Saugenay,
and there took a boat and made the
trip down the Saugenay among the
mountains and beautiful scenery
which abound in that vicinity. On
the return he stopped a few days at
one of the famous resorts of the upper
St". Liwrence.—Times.
Chinese Official Here.
Chen Wu Chang of Pekin, China, a
high Chinese official connected with
the diplomatic service, was registered
at the Cook house last evening and
left this noon for Detroit on an interurban car. Count Chang attracted
considerable attention on the streets
by his dress, being clothed in a long
cardinal, or deep red, robe. The
Chinese representative did not call at
the University office and his visit
here is understood to have been on
one of the students from the Celestial
empire maintained at-the University
by the Chinese government.—Ann Arbor Times.
Governor's Day.
On Saturday Wayne is going to
hold a Governor's day, the committee
in charge having heen promised by
Gov. Warner, Congressman Samuel W.
Smith and other prominent persons
to be present' and give addresses. In
the afternoon also the local baseball
team will line up against the strong
Burroughs Adding Machine nine in a
game wnicii promises to lie very exciting as Wayne has defeated them
once this season and the visitors are
coming strong in an effort to even
matters up. In the evening there is
to De a concert given by the Burroughs
band of thirty-five pieces at which
the noted visitors will also give short
talks. Every effort is being made to
have the day a grand success.—Plymouth Mail.
Coroner's Verdict.
That he came to his- death through
an accident caused by the negligence
of others was the purport of the verdict returned by the coroner's jury
on Bert Robinson, the Ann Arbor mp-
torman who died from injuries
received in a collision between his
car and an interuruban car Sept. 15.
The jury found that Thomas Ellis,
the interurban motorman, exceeded
"all moral and customary" right by not
waiting for the approaching city car,"
and that the D., J. & C. Ry. Co. was
negligent in not taking proper precautions in running its cars through Ann
Arbor, and in not blinding the headlight upon these -cars in passing
through that city.—Ypsilanti Press.

in order that the grass may have a
better chance.—Press. •
Hon. and Mrs. W. W. Wedemeyer,,
who have "been making a tour of Europe for the past summer, sailed from
Liverpool Saturday and will arrive, at
their home in Ann Arbor next Thursday.
Emil Rohde, a section band on the
Michigan Central railroad at Ypsilanti, sustained injuries, in a very peculiar manner. The men were working near the Peninsular paper mills
and as a train was due they stepped
back to let it pass, when Rohde was
knocked against a,, tree.
J. Fred Hoelzle, the butcher, was
arrested by Officer Sweet for violation'of a city ordinance on complaint
of thu board of. health for keeping pigs

Vuesday.—Ann Arbor Times.
LOOK.at ttti^tag on your-twine and be sure that the
"'Plymouth trade mark is on every tag*.
TT means you will get twine made in the oldest and
4 largest independent mill world; .twine-that
•VPEVER fails to give satisfaction, being full length*,
*' full strength; evenly spun and well balled,,
DON'T be deceived by parties offering twine claimed
to be "Just as good as Plymouth"
SOME farmers lose hours in the harvest field when
minutes count,
AND condemn a binder that would work all right if
they used Plymouth Twine.
YOU knovf by experience" that poor twine, though
purchased-at a low price is an expensive article.
i ;   ' ■* *
BECAUSE such-twine i§ often short "length, and so
uneven it breaks when tying the bundles.
REMEMBER  eyery ball of twine having Plymouth
trade mark and name of Lindsay Bros.
ON the tag is exactly as represented.    Do not wait
until harvest time; order now, because
SOMETIMES the demand for Plymouth Twine is beyond, our ability tb supply.

His Dear pid Mother.

well." That's the way Electric Bitters
affect the aged, and the same happy
results follow in all cases of female
weakness and general debility. Weak,
puny children too, are greatly strengthened "by them. Guaranteed also for
