Woman's Menial Duties, Beer and
Art-Many Things a§ Expensive a? in America.
Hamberg, Germany, July 13tb, 1905.
' ^ Bear Parents: .
I am stall in Hamburg, as
you notice, but I leave tomorrow for
Berlin to spend Saturday ana Sunday.
Hamburg interests me thoroughly.
The-tired condition of my whole body
reveals that, for I have been walking
all over the city today. I saw a war
panorama of the Battle of Leipzig,
the Art Gafiery, the Oity Hall and a
Schanspiel. That was a whole lot for
one day. The Art Gallery'was most
interesting. It is free, belongs to the
city, and attempts to preserve the
art history of Hamburg, This town
has produced many artists and their
labors have by this Halle been preserved to enduring form. I enjoyed
my two hours gaze at masterpieces
•very much indeed. The Bathaus or
City Hall captivated me. Its Inferior
is indeed a work of art and I marveled
at the exquisite taste exhibited in the
workmanship of this building. Here
are painted on every wall magnificent
works by famous artists. The doors
leading into the several rooms are all
works of art, some in bronze, others
•with inlaid wood, and others, in brass.
Some of the walls are "papered" in
leather whose artistic design is so
^fine,, that the artist's name is men-
.'"-* tibned in its description, as one would
. give credit-tO an author for a book, or
a -painting- or a monument. The
staircases are all of marble, granite or
onyx.
The senate and burgomaster's assembly chambers are of course beautiful and imposing rooms. For each
room is a special staircase which only
the respective members of these two
houses may ascend, and they are accordingly most.handsomely executed.
I left this place in wonderment and
only wished that the aldermen of our
large cities might see the Hamburg
Rathaus and compare it with their
own—to teach them the wholesome
lesson of culture—that the practical
may be made beautiful, and that until it is made beautiful is its purpose
most incompletely served. We
have many a lesson in civilization to
learn from Germany.
One saddening blot I have noticed
in Germany _ life. "Like us they use
horses for dragging and drudgery, but
the German completes his catalogue of
menials by adding dogs and women to
the list. The dogs are hitched to
heavy milk carts, and the women are
the niggers. They sell papers, they
are the water carriers too. They have
those old fashioned bearers hanging
over the neck and shoulders to each
end of which is fastened a pail of
water and the women are these
pack horses. They are also
the clerks in all the stores. The
* cigar store seems to be the only exception so far in my short experience.
They wait behind the bar, at <the
table, and they are the ushers at the
theatre. "Woman is evidently held in
much lower esteem in Germany, than
in America.
I have also noticed. that the German's love of art is equalled only by
his love of beer. At the stations
where they call out, "Jfuenf Minuten
Aufenthalt," the boys run along the
coupes calling out not sandwiches but
beer, and my, how these Germans
rush for it. And yet with all their
beer drinking I have not seen any
drunkards reeling on the street as
they do at home. There is a difference .of philosophy somewhere. I
fancy that the word "forbid" makes
many an evil-doer. If beer drinking
were to be tabooed in Germany, you
might witness as a consequence many
* a sot On the street. This is a fine
thought for a sermon. \
The German bed is another interestingly comfortable thing. It is ,all
made of down, and in the<hargain the
cover is not alone a conventional one,
but also a feather bed on top. The
German certainly pampers himself on
his bedroom -But we are all very
much mistaken about cheapness in
this country. I find that every thing
is just as expensive here as at nOme.
I just got my laundry list tonight and
I find that they out-American us in
prices. The tipping system is Festively tiresome. One must tip everybody, the usher at the theatre, thev
street car conductor, the elevator
man, the waiter and the candle stick
Kiaker, Some of these people are going to get fooled as a few towns have
taught me a few lessons, The hotel
gives a rate including break-
last. This morning" I found
|h„t my bi'eakfast means simply coffeet
&
all else extra. Two toiled eggs, ,00
pfenrlig, that is 15 cents. Genug,
nicht wahr?
. iMy barber today, asked mo if I live
in Russia!, Goodness that was a blow.
That's, like asking a Jap the same
question'. . I answered by saying that
I am a lover o|: freedom. That ought
todispwn Russia if lever owned it.
He said I was so dark complexioned
that he thought I hailed from tber£.
I w.on't write you again until Saturday night when I expect to write
you from Berlin. When I get to Vienna- J look for all the news from you.
The only news of the world I get here
is from an edition of the New York
Herald and that gives me Enropean
news. It tells of no happenings at
home. I certainly am in exile.

OF INTEREST TO VETERANS,
Gov. Warner in Glare-Isabella.
Michigan's governor is in great demand in Olare and Isabella counties.
Wise farmers'club elected him a member of their organisation last year and
a few 'weeks ago when he stopped off
In Olare secured his promise to attend
their picnic at Stevenson lake August
22nd and from J. F. Tatman, one of
tbe committee who has the arrange-,
ments in charge, we learn there is every prospect that the people, especially of southern Olare and northern Isabella, will turn out in mass to do honor to the Cheese Maker. Olareites in
particular are planning to forego business and attend the picnic.
Likewise the Woodmen have prevailed on the governor to attend their
picnic at Lakeside Park, Harrison,
August 24th, at the time of the Soldiers' and Sailors' Reunion and plans
are on foot to eclipse the Stevenson
lake gathering. •
Mt. Pleasant also expects to have
the governor at a gathering of fraternal orders within her borders, sometime during August, presumably the
same week.
It is only fair to Gov. Warner, however, to state in repiy to a number of
inquiries that the week of August 22d
is the only time he can be in this part
of the state and this was the time
named by him when his duties would
permit his visit here.
Loomis Ditch a Success.
The Loomis ditch, though far from
completed, is now regarded.a blessing
to Wise township. Much land is being made available for- cultivation.
Throughout much of its course the
depth of the ditch and rapidity of fall
removes danger of difficulty in the future. But for 100 rods, especially
across a part of W. J. Maxwell's farm
at Herrick, the black muck through
which the dredge dug its course was
so loose that much of it worked back
into the ditch, leaving it not more
than two or three feet deep. The
dredge people however assert that
freshets will gradually cut a channel
down through the muck to the proper depth. This has been done farther
down where the grade is greater but
across the Maxwell farm it is so flat
that freshets have had little effect and
vegetation is already beginning to
show there. , However thus far the
present depth has been sufficient for
drainage. This is the only direct objection heard now as .to the ditch itself but more than one farmer is
humping himself wondering whether
he will be able to pay enough on the
tax to hold his farm.
A Chance to Visit,- with Their
Wives, Children and Friends
the Scenes of Their Toils
and Triumphs. ,
To The Editor: The veterans of
the civil war are fast passing away and
a generous and appreciative public delights to help fill with pleasure, the
declining years of those still left. Ho
class of citizens has shown more kindness in this regard than the members
of the press. It is, with confidence,
therefore, that I ask space in ypur
columns, to invite my comrades to
share in an excursion that can but
yield great enjoyment to all who participate in it.
On several occasions, the members
Of "Wilder's Lightning Brigade" have
met for reunion on Ohickamauga Battlefield. "The people of Chattanooga
have given them a warm welcome and
made their stay pleasant. Having determined to hold one more reunion on
that historic ground, we have decided
to invite all soldiers who participated
in the campaigns, from Louisville to
Atlanta, to share in the pleasures of
the occasion.
A one cent rate for the round trip
has been already granted by the Southeastern Passenger Association, south
of the Ohio, and by the Central, north
of that river, and it is expected to get
a low rate from other Associations.
Arrangements will be made so blankets can be taken for bedding and also
provisions for several days, so that the
chief item of expense will be the low
railroad fare.
The time fi„ed is the anniversary of
the battle, Sept. 19, 20, next. The
time limit^viil be not less than thirty
days. Stop overs will be given at all
points of historic interest on the return trip. It is the aim to make the
cost so reasonable that the veteran of
moderate means can save enough from
his pension between now and September, to take his wife with him on the
trip, and it is hoped he may be accompanied by his children, grandchildren
and friends.
Each division, brigade and regiment
that took part in the battle, has a
monument on the field and the survivors should arrange to hold one reunion on the ground made famous by
their valor. Many have already arranged to do this.
Let every comrade understand he is
cordially invited to share in the pleasures ot this occasion and ask his
friends to go with him.

THAT DRAIN LAW.
Loyal Shepherd. '
,A condition exists in Shepherd that
is foreign to many other towns and
which is to be commended. That is
loyalty to home institutions, Eor instance^ the representative of a calan-
der house lately went over the town
with his wares and was met at every
place with the information that their
local printing office, the Advocate,
had calander samples in stock and as
a matter of protecting the home industry they should give their orders
to Mr. Gould. No-outsider can go
against such sentiment as that and
the Advocate is to be'.congratulated
that such is the feeling among hjs
townspeople.

Arguments before Judge Dodds
last Saturday—Decision to
be Rendered After
. Sept. 15.
The hearing of the case brought by
J, C. Warner et, al.jpf Union township
to compel Drain Com'r Eldred to proceed with the construction of Onion
creek drain, which is to extend from
near Mt. Pleasant through Union, into
Chippewa township,'-was had in circuit court Saturday. I. A. Fancher
withKelley A, Searls of Ithaca appeared for the petitioners while -Pros.
Atty. Dusenbury andE. H. Dodds argued against the petition and for the
newlawasnOw in operation. Eour
points are at issue in the arguments
as presented. The first two are the
same as those upon which Judge
Beach of Saginaw rendered decision
against the new law. The third is
the same as that upon which Judge
Stone decided against the law. The
fourth is a new point not raised before.
1. That under the constitution
boards of supervisors cannot make
laws and hence the new drain law is
unconstitutional.
2. That the new drain law is defective in ways and means for petition
and formation of assessment district
and hence null and void.
3. That the title of the act does
not cive any intimation of the real objects of the act as provided by the
constitution that no law shall embrace
more than One object which shall be
expressed in its title.
4. That the new law repeals not
one but six clauses in the old drain law
and they are not mentioned in the
title of the act.
The decision of Judge Beach has
been appealed to the supreme court.
The decision of that court will be rendered September 15th and so Judge
Dodds' decision will not be given till
after that date, probably before the
October meeting of the board of supervisors. The legal opinion seems to be
that the right of the legislature to
delegate power to boards of supervisors, each'for its own county, will be
held constitutional but that en the
question of defect of tittle of the new
law, the case is pretty close.

I am stall in Hamburg, as you notice, but I leave tomorrow for Berlin to spend Saturday ana Sunday. Hamburg interests me thoroughly. The-tired condition of my whole body reveals that, for I have been walking all over the city today. I saw a war panorama of the Battle of Leipzig, the Art Gafiery, the Oity Hall and a Schanspiel. That was a whole lot for one day. The Art Gallery'was most interesting.

We have many a lesson in civilization to learn from Germany. One saddening blot I have noticed in Germany _ life. "Like us they use horses for dragging and drudgery, but the German completes his catalogue of menials by adding dogs and women to the list. The dogs are hitched to heavy milk carts, and the women are the niggers. They sell papers, they are the water carriers too. They have those old fashioned bearers hanging over the neck and shoulders to each end of which is fastened a pail of water and the women are these pack horses. They are also the clerks in all the stores. The * cigar store seems to be the only exception so far in my short experience. They wait behind the bar, at |
