stomach troubles. Mr. Cleveland was
Mrn in Caldwell, N. .1. March is, KIT.
He was the only living ex-president of
the U. S. and was the only man who
ever returned to the White House after
once leaving it. President lloosevelt
says, "In his death the nation has been
deprived of one of its greatest citizens.
Uy profession a lawyer his chief serv
ices to his country were rendered during
a long, varied and honorable career in
public life.
As mayor of his city, as governor of
his state, and twice as president, he
showed signal power as an adminstra
tor, coupled with entire devotion to the
country's good and a courage that
juailed before no hostility when once
he was convinced where his duty lay.
Since his retirement from the presidency
he has continued well and faithfully to
serve his countrymen by the simplicity,
dignity and uprighteousness of his
private life."
The funeral will be held today, (Fri

I M. SMASH-UP.
Persons in the vicinity of the IV re
Marquette tracks on Tuesday after
noon were greatly startled by the loud
trash which was heard about live
o'clock, and which was toon found to
have been caused by seven cars being
shoved off the end of the switch near
the old Hour mill.
Engine No. 313 was shunting cars
on the siding nearest the cattle yards
and in shoving a string of cars onto
the switch, control was lost of the
brakes, allowing the cars to bump with
terrilic speed into cars standing on the
track. So terrilic was the impact that
seven cars were shoved over the .back
stop and up the road leading to the
elevators.
It happened that E. I). Hollenbeck
and Charlie Mann were loading hay in
one of the box cars and the impact
threw the bales of hay all around them.
Mr. Mann miraculously escaped with
out any injury, but Mr. Hollenbeck
was struck by a falling bale and other
wise bruised.
Orrin Lane was unloading coal near
the Yale Lumber & Coal Co.'s sheds
when the cars came rushing in undone
of the horses was hit on the head This
frightened the animals and they start
ed ahead and got caught in between
the cars on the two tracks, (the dis
tance between them was not over four
or live feet.) One horse was dealt a
severe blow on the fide of the head,
crushing in the skull. The other ani
mal was somewhat cut. Uoth were
taken to T. U. Wharton's barn, where
Morgan Smead administered to them.
Orrin, in attempting to stop the ani
mals jumped on the wagon pole and
was slightly Injured in the mix-up
which followed. Terry Connell also
received a severe shaking up. It is a
wonder that both horses in the
gles did not get under the
wheels and get cut to pieces.

Cov. Patrick 11. Kelley, Fred W. Sherman, editor of the Port Huron Times,
Jefferson (. Jlrown, supervisor of Kenockee township, the governor's son and
the driver.
About 200 people were gathered to greet the party, and Mayor Ileavis of our
city was delegated to introduce the speakers, which he did in a very graceful
manner from the touring car. . (Jov. Warner was the llrat to address the gather
ing and confined his talk to the work accomplished at the last session of the
state legislature, touching on several measures that should be taken up and
passeu upon ui me nexi session.
Lieut.-Cov. Kelley, who has addressed audiences on different occasions in our
city, is an orator', and kept the crowd interested by his wit and humor for near
ly an nour. lie reviewemioy. Vt arner s good qualities and placed belore the
people the work accomplished in the past four years. Mr. Kellev seemed to be
somewhat bashful in announcing that he and the governor were campaigning
the state for re-election and that it was no secret.
At the close the governor and lieutenant-governor passed out the clad hand
to everybody and tpent a short time visiting before retiring Into the
Paisley for supper. From here the party drove to Marlette where a meeting
was held in the Opera House at 8:00 in the evening.

DON'T imagine that "Queen Quality" has created
a demand for its shoes by Advertising. No
advertising of any article ever created a demand for it
Advertising cannot create a demand. It can only tell
you how it can be tupplicd. Ths demand for "Queen
Quality" Shoes is born in most women. It is merely
a demand for finely made shoes at a low price.
