A Whole Regiment of News Items From Michigan Towns CAPTURED FOR BRIEF READING, The Trial of CoL button wm Commenced t Lansior on April S3 The l'roe cutlon ! Scheming to Have as Much Time l'oaalble. ' Although the prosecution expects to make more rapid progress in the Sut ton case than was made in the trial of Gen. Marsh, the chances nro that the trial commenced on the 25th will not bo finished before May 10. Should tho defense have many witnesses, it will be nearer May 15 '.when the end is reached. It is expected that time will be made at the commencement of the trial, Judge Wiest having already con sidered and passed upon most of tho A motions and objections. These motions include all those made in behalf of Marsh. The prosecution hopes to gain further time by offering in bulk many of the exhibits, consisting of vouchers, etc., which had to bo read into the Marsh record, this consuming much time. There are other portions of the testimony that can be treated simi larly if the defense would consent. The entire first day was spent in a strenuous effort on the part of the de fense to secure a continuance, claiming that Tom L. .Johnson, the street car ruagnato who i3 taking a trip to Europe, was a material witness, and the challenging of jurors by the de fense. Judge Wicst denied the motion for a continuance, and this made Capt. Atkinson warm under the collar and lio challenged tho entire array of jurors. Second Day. The Sutton case came to an abrupt close on the 26th, Judge Wiest sustain ing the challenge of the defense to both the special and extra jury panels ow ing to irregularities in drawing them. This throws the case over until an extra panel of 30 jurors can be summoned. Tho whole trouble seems to have been with the county officials, who for years have been drawning panels without closely following the provisions of the statute and their methods were only discovered when Capt. Atkinson made his numerous objections. After the decision of the court there was consid erable speculation as to whether it would affect the verdict in the Marsh ease, but Capt. Atkinson did not think so for tho reason that the jury which tried Marsh was accepted by the de fense, even though it was irregularly drawn. fiutton's Attorneys will Attack Indictment. Every one of the 30 jurors drawn at Mason on the 2Sth responded to roll call in the circuit court at Lansing on the 30th. Col. Sutton closely scanned the faces of the jurors as they answered to their names and took their places in the box, smiled grimly when the name of William H. MeKale was called, evi dently reflecting that Mjkale had a hand in his indictment. When court convened Capt. Atkinson started in with a motion that time be allowed the defense in which to look into the stand ing and character of the jurors, and also to examine the clerk's records rela tive to the drawing of the jury, and the assessment rolls of the several town ships and wards for the purpose of see ing if the jurors were all taxpayers. Right reasons arc assigned for quash Ing the indictment. They are that no order was ever made by tho court call ing or authorizing the drawing of a prand jury; that the persons claiming to act as grand jurors acted wholly without authority of law; that the per fcons mentioned in the indictment as grand jurors were not selected to act as grand jurors for Ingham count' in accordance with any provisions of law; that none of the names of persons act ing as grand jurors were ever placed in packages provided by law to contain the names of grand jurors, when re ported by the township officials to the county clerk; that tho slip3 were not folded so as to conceal the names of persons returned; that no records were kept by officials participating in the drawing; that the clerk did not hand the slips to the sheriff, whose duty it was to keep minutes of the drawing but did hand them to Carl Loomis, a deputy sheriff.

Tho sad results of a woman's shame were disclosed at Port Huron on April 30 by the detention at the Grand Trunk tunnel station of the unfortunato mother with a dead 4-weeks-old baby in her arms. She had been carrying the baby about with her for some hours at least, and in her distraction did not know what to do with it. .Tho unfor tunato is an unmarried woman of 24 years, whose home is in Alonlston, Ont. Sim had been confined at the Woman's Hospital and Foundlings' Home in De troit, and left that institution about a week previous, going to hey home. Upon the advice of relatives she had started for Detroit to leave the child for adoption, and the baby died while cn route. The coroner's inquest re vealed the- fact that tho infant died a natural death and the mother was re leased. After making arrangements for the burial of her baby at Tort Hu ron she departed for home. Another Wreck on tho Rapid Railway. Some miscreant deliberately opened a switch on tho Rapid Railway line, opposite tho Michigan salt works, threo miles south of Marine City on the night of the 26th, and as tho result tho motorman was probably fatally in jured and the car damaged to a consid erable extent. A small track which branches from one of the big railrord lines leads directly into the yard at the salt works. The Rapid Railway car ran into the switch at a rapid gait and crashed into a box car which was standing on the side track. The mo torman was injured internally and may not survive the shock. The vesti bule on the car was smashed into kindling wood while the upper portion of the car was torn completely off its trucks. None of the passengers were njured. , Cattle Ualftlng In Michigan. Hon. A. M. Todd, of Kalamazoo, has purchased 8,000 acres of stump land in Homo township, Newaygo county, and s negotiating for more. He intends to have the largest and best equipped cat tle range in the state. Tho land is rolling and well watered by springs and running brooks. He has given or ders for two carloads of wire to fence t; will erect good and substantial buildings thereon and stock it with blooded cattle. George A. Day, a resi dent of Newaygo, is so enthused with the idea that he has purchased 2,000 acres and will emulate the ex-congress man. This stump land is being rap idly taken up by outside investors for grazing and hay land. Much of the soil is heavy clay, while the sandy soil is specially adapted to fruit growing. Suicide at Spring Lake. The little village of Spring Lake is greatly stirred by a tragedy that oc curred there of the 27th.

A silver plate, or rather a silver jaw, will be placed in position as soon as Mr. Ilemngton is strong enough for another operation. and the silver law will be a substitute for what nature provided him.

S. tracks at Riga on tho 26th The team of horses were also killed. Kruse had driven to an elevator with a load of grain and was turning his wagon around when the train struck them. The boy died instantly and the father succumed while on his way to a hospital at Toledo. Will Dedicate the New Pavement. Benton Harbor businessmen are pre paraing to hold a mask carnival to celebrate the completion of the city's new asphalt pavement, but if the work on the pavement progresses as rapidly in the future as it has in the past, there will be no hurry about making preparations for the event. The pav ing was begun last year, and is still a long way from completion. The business men of Howell have de cided to hold a street fair this fall, which will be tho only fair in the county. Rrighton business men hav ing decided to abandon theirs after running it for over 20 years. Wayland's village council is in a deadlock over the granting of saloon licenses, and there hasn't been a meet ing at which any business has been done since March 27, and the prospects are there won't be one for some time to come. One of the tax assessment blanks sent out by tho Houghton county supervis ors came back bearing across its face the following legend: "In copper I trusted, and now I am busted."

A Reading boy chased a rabbit into a hole while out hunting and after dig ging a while he tried to reach it with his hand. He got hold of what he sup posed was a root and pulled it out.

There is so much patriotism at Kal kaska that the residents are not able to vent it sufficiently on the Fourth of July, so they are going to make their celebration of the nation's birthday this year cover two days, the same as they did last year.

It is now known that six persons were killed and about 40 others in lured. The accident threw a pall over the happiness of an immense throng who had profited by the magnificent weather to visit tho exposition. Strangely enough, the bridge had been condemned by the ex hibition authorities on the same day of the accident. The public was there fore not allowed upon the structure, and in this way a disaster even more terrible than which occurred was averted. The gay crowd was passing along the avenue and some hundred or more persons were walking beneath the bridge, when suddenly an ominous crash was heard.

A Blocmfontein correspondent in commenting upon the war situation, 6ays; "The Roers have taken every ad vantage of the mountainous nature of the country which marks the line of their retreat to Ladybrand. The task of driving them is difficult and it is doubtful whether they can be reduced to submission in a district so favorable to their tactics. A cavalry reconnais sance 25 miles northeast encountered 400 Roers. The Rrltlsh drove them out of a kopje north of Karee. Our outposts are still harassed by moving commandos. In an outpost affair on the 26th several Roers were killed. The enemy will certainly make a stand at Kroonstad, where they have con structed miles of trenches." The latest news from the Orange Free State indicates that though the Roers have evacuated Thabanchu, they have only done so to occupy stronger positions. On Sunday, April 29, Gen. Dewet made an effort to turn French's eastern Hank, which was only foiled by the cavalry after vigorous maneuv ering. The Roers hold the ridges to the eastward, whence they will prob ably fall back when the pressure of superior numbers increases. The Brit Ish casualties sustained during the Thabanchu fighting were slight. Gen. French's object, now that all chance of catching the main bodies of the burghers has disappeared, is to harass the Roers and prevent any well-organized retreat. Many stories of marvelous escapes from tho Roer shell that were poured into Kiniberley during the siege have been told, but this is equal to any of them. A lady named Miss Mallett was lying on the bed in her room when a servant came to the door and asked for some money. Half-raising herself to take the purse from her pocket, her feet were removed from the bed, when one of the 100-pound monsters crashed through the roof of the house, struck the part of the bed on which but a moment before the lower portion of her body had been lying, and so on through the floor without exploding. The bed was covered with debris from the roof, but the lady escaped unhurt. The Roers are preparing to spend the winter in Natal. They are removing their stock from- the high veldt into Natal for winter gazing and they are demanding that the Kaffirs pay the hut tax to them Instead of to the Natal government. They also declare that unless the Kaffirs work for them they (the Kaffirs) must remove south of Sun days river. Rritish forces are now in control of Thabanchau, and it is said they will continue to hold it, owing to its strat egic importance. Many burghers in the vicinity are reported swearing al legiance to Rritain and giving up their arms. Roer peace envoys will leave Rotter dam for the United States the fore part of this month. It is said they place hopes in Rryan, thinking his in fluence with the people may force the administration to do something for them. prisoner captured by the Rritish on the 20th asserts that President Steyn was present during the fight at Slang- fonteln east of Leeuw kop on the 23d He had shaved his beard, so that he was not easily recognizable. The strength of the Roers in the Rig garsberg district is believed to Ik? be tween 5,000 and 8,000. They are com manded by Gen. Lucas Meyer and arc well supplied with artillery. Lord Roberts cabled from Rloemfon tein under date of April 25, as follows: De Wet's dorp was occupied by Gen Chermside without opposition this morning. Rloemfontein dispatches say the Rritish war office must keep a steady stream of horses pouring into that dis trict for the use of Lord Roberts army, Gen. Oliver, Roer leader, is reported to have been wounded at Wcpencr last week. CONGRESSIONAL NOTES. When the ho ise resumed considera tlon of the postoflicc appropriation bill on the 25th, the item appropriation 8725,000 for pneumatic tube service, an increase of f 500,000 over the appropria tion for the current year, was the sub ject of two hours' debate under the ar rangement previously made, and was finally knocked out by a vote of 87 to 50. The immediate cause of tho sud den death of the bill was due to scandal connected with it, which Mr, Moody (Mass.) exposed.
