BELDING.
MICHIGAN.
There Is Just a bit of danger that
the white house bees will sting some
of the premature booms to death.
It is sad to see a handsome and in
telligent young American woman wed
ded to a Chinaman. She might almost
as well throw herself away on a titled
lord.
The people of this country will ex
pend this year no less than $40,000,000
for bicycles. The matter of bicycle
roadways becomes important in view
of the number of persons interested.
If Japan really has the wisdom at
tributed to her she will not regard her
conquest of China as a precedent in
settling international differences with
a real, wideawake, up-and-dressed na
tion. The public interest as well as the
collegiate Interest that is usually tak
en in intercollegiate Joint debates is)
an exceedingly gratifying circum
stance. It tends to show that the peo-
pie really have some true understand
ing of the purpose for which institu-.
tions of learning exist. Educated so
ciety can endure with equanimity
somewhat less of football, in view of
the increasing zest lith which un
dergraduates and graduates enter Into
the promotion of intellectual contests.
By all means let brawn have due honor
at college; but let brain receive some
recognition too.
Carmencita, the Spanish dancer, who
was a sensation in this country for,
several seasons, is regarded with only
mild interest by the theater goers of
Ixndon, where she is now appearing.
One critic of her first performance
explains her failure to fulfill the extrav-
agant anticipations of her audience by
stating that the Grenada beauty was
suffering at the time from influenza
"which had settled in her shoulders."
When last in this country Carmencita'
did little or no dancing with her should
ers, but she may have learned some'
new tricks since her arrival in Eng
land. The death of a switchman from heart
disease suggests the possibility of a
dreadful tragedy. A man who was
acting as switchman was found dead'
In his shanty, with some of the switches
out of order. He had died suddenly
before he had replaced the switches as
they should be, and it was only because
he was discovered before a train was(
due that a casualty was averted. Noth-.
e th -',.atic author can devise
can aevise
diinn rf utm
satlonal situation than a misplaced
switch,, an on-coming fast passenger
train and a switchman dead at his
post.
Col. John A. Cockerill, In his last
letter from Yokohama to the New York
Herald, says that "everything in Japan
Js for country; everything for the noble
emperor." He also gives many Inci
dents showing the unselfish patriotism
of the Japanese soldiers anxious to die
for their country, and parents rejoic
ing rather than mourning over their
sons killed in battle. It is not surpris
ing that the victory should be with such
a people in their war with China. They
represent Just the opposite of the Chi
nese, who have no respect for their sol
diers, and treat them little better than
slaves.
A clergyman in California prayed
publicly for a woman holding a city
office, and she sued hjm for slander
and secured a verdict. The court ruled
that public petitions of this character
intimated too plainly that the individ
ual prayed for stood in need of such
prayers and that discretion was as nec
essary in praying as in other affairs
of life. "A little louder, please," said
a man to a minister who was opening
a public meeting with prayer. "I am
not praying to you, sir," was the quick
reply. If the zealous Californian con
tinues praying for this woman it will
be so that only one person can hear
him.
A sea story from San Francisco says
that the coal laden ship Wachausett
recently encountered a gale, with high
cross seas running. During the height
of the gale a terrible wave came down
upon the vessel, sweeping her full
length. Four seamen were washed
overboard. The four men were carried
some distance off, only to bo swept
back to tho vessel again by a tremen
dous cross sea. Three of them were
violently thrown upon the deck. The
fourth man was washed within reach
of the lower sheet, which had dipped
to the rolling craft. He grabbed it,
held fast, and was hauled safely on
board. It is difficult to say whether this
story should have been sold to a soap
factory or a dealer in cosmetics. It
seems to be strongly impregnated with
lie and certainly It is the greatest wash
ever offered to the American people.
The difference between the business
of the "Soo" and the Suez now amounts
to the difference between 10,647,203
tons and 7,659,000 tons, and the dif
ference is in favor of the American
canal. The Suez bears the tonnage be
tween Europe and Asia and Eastern
Africa, the Soo that between Lake Su
perior and the other fresh-water lakes.
So far as we personally are concerned
we are quite willing to accept Phoebe
Couzlns' word for it that Senator Fair
loved her and let the whole matter drop
right there.

The fctrikintf oro trimmers and the
new men had a collision on No. 4 dock
at Marquette. The l'ontiac arrived at
0 o'clock, and William O'Mara, who
has a contract to trim her, started for
the dock at the head of 30 men, mostly
imported from Ishpeminff. They were
escorted by Sheriff llroad and 10
special deputies taken from the im
ported men. The old trimmers met
them in front of the first pocket and
on the first attempt to advance further
a collision ensued. The deputies lied
without a blow, leaving" the sheriff
helpless. Quito a number on both
Bides had their heads broken, but
there are no serious injuries reported.

called on the local company of tho
Michigan National Guard and they
were placed under arms. Tho l'ontiac

Two Attenipie to Wreck a Train.
Two attempts were made to wreck a
Ri Four train near ltenton Harbor.
The first attempt was made five miles
south of Itenton Harbor, where the
train struck a dummy car, which had
been placed on tho track. The car
was demolished, and the forward part
of the engine was iniured. Two
miles further, while moving at a slow
rate, the engine struck a pile of ties,
causing a delay of two hours. This
last accident occurred at tho most
dangerous part of the road, and had
the train been running at its regular
speed a fearful accident would have
been the result There is no clue to
the perpetrators.
SSO.OOO Fire at Cornnna.
A fire started in the Phoenix block,
Corunna, and on account of the un

subdued until the whole block was a
mass of ruins. The buildings were

offices, L. Etchmann, furniture dealer;
Adam Serr's saloon. Tanner's harness
shop, Minto's feed store, House's res
taurant, Maccabee hall and Corunna
Lodge, I. O. (. F., and several other
societies which lost all their effects
with little or no insurance. When the
fire was first discovered the odor of
kerosene was so strong that people
suspected incendiarism. The loss will
reach $50,000.

To Consolidate the llay CI tie.
"West I Say City is now for consolida
tion with I'.ay City. A movement is on
foot to bring about this end, and if
Day City does not oppose it, the likeli
hood is that both cities will be one
after next April. West Day City has
always been opposed to consolidation.
Day City has favored the move. The
change in public sentiment has been
gradual.

Highest of all in Leavening Power, Latest U. S. Gov't Report
ABSOLUTTEILV PUKE
THE HAREM AND SLAVERY
4 Blair I Submissive, Obedient and Anx
ious to Please Her Lord and MnUr.
Tor the service of the harem as at
present constituted Haves are Indis
pensable, It being: unlawful for a free
Moslem woman to appear unveiled be
fore any man not a near relative, while
to a slave who is the property of her
master or mistress no such restriction
attaches so far as they are concerned
Since the abolition of the public slave
market the private trade in slaves has
become much more general and widely
spread than it formerly was, and Is
carried on to a great extent by ladles
of rank, some of whom are themselves
emancipated slaves, says the Nineteenth
Century. In addition to the negrresses
and other women of unattractive ex
terior, to whom the menial duties of the
household are assigned, these lady deal
ers pay large sums for pretty childdren
of from 6 to 10 years of age, who are
carefully trained for the higher posi
tions they will probably be called upon
to occupy. Many Turks prefer, for va
rious reasons, to marry women who
have been brought up as slaves. Mar
riage with a free woman is, indeed, a
very expensive matter for a young
bridegroom and his parents, owing to
the lavish outlay in presents and en
tertainments required by custom on
such occasions. Consequently if a fath
er cannot afford to marry his son to a
maiden of his own rank, he purchases
for him a slave girl who has been edu
cated in some great lady's harem, and
no expense is incurred beyond the pur
chase money. A slave, having no posi
tion of her own, is submissive and obe
dient to, and anxious to please her lord
and master, has no troublesome pre
tensions or caprices, and no interfer
ing relatives to take her part against
him. A free woman, on the other hand,
is by no means always disposed to
have, according to her own expression,
"neither mouth nor tongue." She is fully
aware of her rights, and inclined to as
sert them, and the moral support af
forded by her family gives her an as
surance which the husband often finds
extremely Inconvenient.

Dinner Tarty Etiquette.
A dinner party is a formal function,,
and specially demands dignity of man--ner,
writes Ituth Ashmore in the La
dies' llome Journal. If the continental'
fashion is followed, and ladles and gen
tlemen leave the dining room at tha
same time, you go out as you came In.
If the English fashion obtains, and the
gentlemen remain to smoke and talk,,
rise when your hostess gives the signal,..
stand quite still until you see your
chaperon, and then fall in line behind
her, passing, not too quickly, the gen
tlemen, who are all standing up, and al-
lowing you to walk out before them
Learn to walk well and not to "trot.'"
A dinner invitation should be acknowl
edged, and either accepted or declined
within three hours, and the changing"
of one's mind about it is neveh per
mitted. A witty Frenchman said: "Only
death Is an excuse for not keeping a.
dinner engagement, and even then a
polite man would send the undertaker
to apologize for him."
It's What's In It,
A bottle 115 feet high will be showo.
at the coming Bordeaux exhibition.
The size of the bottle isn't so interest
ing to most people, though, as tho con
tents of it.
Consumption kills
more people than rifle
balls. It is more dead
ly than any of the
much dreaded epi
demics. It is a steal
thy, gradual, slow
disease. It penetrate
tne wnoie body. Jt
is in every drop of
blood. It seems to
work only at the
lungs, but the ter
rible drain and waste
go on all over the
body. To cure con
sumption, work on
the blood, make it
pure, rich and whole
some, build up the,
wasting tissues, put
the body into condi
tion for a fight with,
the dread disease.
Dr. Pierce's Golden.
Medical Discovery fights in the right way.
It will cure 98 per cent, of all cases if taker
during the early stages of the disease. Its
first action is to put the stomach, bowels,
liver and kidneys into good working order.
That makes digestion good and assimilation,
quick and thorough. It makes sound, health
flesh. That is half the battle. That mak
the "Discovery" good for those whohave or
consumption, but who are lighter and
robust than they ought to be.
