THE ANGEL OF DEATH
A# si in Visits our Village and Takes From Our Midst
Miss Fleta McFallon '
WILL BE DEEPLY MOURNEDBy Loving Father, Mother, Three Sisters
ami a Host of Friends.Again our village is wrapped in
the deepest mourning for the Angel o f Death visited the home of Mr. and Mrs. John McFallon, Monday morning near 8 o’ clock and took from their midst, Miss Fleta, their 18 year old daughter.
Miss Fleta, although of a very quiet • disposition, had numerous friends, who deeply mourn her sudden departure. She always had a bright smile, and pleasant word for all her friends and was loved by all with whom she came in contact.
Miss McFalloD has been employed as cashier of the Buchanan Cash Grocery since Jau. 5, and in that time won the love of all around her, and was held in the highest esteem by her employers. She was always trustworthy and performed her duties most faithfully.
Out of the high respect in which Miss McFallon was held, the Cash Grocery will close for the funeral and not open until the next day.
About two yeais ago Fleta received injuries in the back, caused from playing basket ball and has been afflicted more or less since that time. Cause of her death is thought to be heart failure. Up to Friday evening she could be seen at her desk attending to her duties as diligently as ever, and although not being able to, she would not give up until . she found it absolutely necessary.
She leaves to mourn her untimely departure a loving father, mother, three sisters, besides a host of friends.
Funeral services will be held from her home on Front street, Wednesday morning at 10 o ’ clock. The family has the sympathy of the entire com inunity in their sad bereavement.
The Misses Efhel and Georgie Beistle, Edna Bates, Elina Kemenski and Fayette Bloomc will act as pallbearers.
-*> ♦»IN A SUIT CASE
Dismembered Body of Woman Found in the Ocean
The police o f Boston and the state are giving their combined efforts in an attempt to unravel the mystery which surrounds the crime discovered Thursday by the finding o f the dismembered trunk o f a women in a dress suit case floating in the water off the Winthrop Yacht club’s pier.
A squad o f police, assisted by residents and members of the Winthrop Yacht club, spent the morning in examining the harbor and Winthrop shores searching for the head, arms and legs o f the woman.
The body was removed to an undertaking establishment in this city, where an autopsy was performed by Medical Examiner Harris. His preliminary examination strengthened the theory that the woman had been the victim of an unsuccessful surgical operation and that the dismembering of the body had been the work of skilled hands. The police of Winthrop assert that the victim probably was not a resident of tha't town, as they- know of no one missing.
Early in the morning four officers went to the office of a physician on Howard street, in the west end of Boston, where nearly half an hour was spent in a search of the premises. No arrests followed.

The tables were beautiful to look at, they being decorated in flowers, and cakes with white icing and R. N. A. in purple on the top o f each one, besides the purple and white grapes. A souvenir consisting o f purple and white china asters, tied with the same colors of ribbon were placed at each visitors plate and were wore by the ladies during the evening.

State ItemsThe school authorities and the
health department, o f Kalamazoo, have entered into a compact to keep down contagious diseases in the city this winter. The teachers will, hereafter, when finding a child ill, send for the health officer before sending the child home. The health authorities claim that much of the' contagion starts in the schools, and when children are sent home they know nothing about it until the disease is spread.

foreman on the south Shore road, died in the hospital at Marquette, Mich,, the result o f a peculiar accident. He was struck by a flying piece o f the maul with which a laborer was driving a spike. The particle of steel was smaller than a lima bean, but it cut through Christiansen’s clothing, entering the abdominal walls and puncturing the intestines.
***Battle Creek, the healthiest city in
the world, is badly scared for fear o f typhoid inoculation. A new analysis o f Lake Goguac water, the present source o f the city’ s supply, heretof ore reported as pure, shows a bad change in the situation. Water taken from a well on the shore o f the lake shows many colon bacilli and another at an entirely different point, though near the lake, indicates a record just half as bad. The tests were made in the laboratory o f the Battle Creek Sanitarium.

The recent report o f the state banking commissioner makes the statement that for the first time in the history o f ’our state the total desposits in the banks directly under his supervision, which does notinclude national banks show a total footing o f more than two hundred million dollars. This is an increase in state bank deposits of more than thirteen million dollars, during the past year. It is probable that the status of affairs in Michigan, which the bank deposits reveal, had something to do with the fact that the only representatives from this state at the recent tariff, changing conference in Chicago, were one or two avowed free traders and two or three past and prospective democratic candidates.

EntertainedFor the Recovery of Alvali
Sherwood, Who Received Injuries at Grand
Rapids Fair
The latest advices fro,m’ Grand Rapids as to the condition o f County Treasurer Sherwood are the most encouraging reports yet received since the man’s injury. Mr. Sherwood is reported decidedly improved, he spent a comfortable day Sunday, and though his condition is very critical the physicians hope for his recovery.
Mr. Sherwood is one of the leading republican politicians in the southwestern part of the state. His home is at Three Oaks, Mich., from where he was elected county treasurer of Berrien county. Since his election lie has resided in St. Joseph. He was noted as a fine horseman and judge of horseflesh and was selected as superinteadent o f horses for the West Michigan fair purely for his qualifications in that line. He was leading one of the prize stallions at the beginning of the cavalcade when the accident happened, near the turn into the home stretch o f the track. It was all over so quickly that few could say just how it happened.
The animal, after chafing and giving Mr. Sherwood considerable trouble, suddenly reared and struck. Experienced as he was, Mr. Sherwood only partly avoided the blow. While towering on its hind legs the annual lost its balance and crashed over backward, rolling upon the body of tbe prostrate man.
Mr Sherwood was picked up and carried into Pratt's dining ball Fol- lowing the injury the severe shock all but caused his immediate death before Dr. T: M. Koou arrived The effects o f the shock was offset by prompt treatment, and the injured man was later taken to U. B. A. hospital in an ambulance. He spent a restless night of agony. He is be lieved to have suffered severe internal injuries in addition to the hurt spine.
Mrs. Sherwood and her daughter are in the city and the wife is constantly at the bedside o f the suffering man. There is one other child, a son in St. Joseph. The injured man is 46 years o f age.
«>Chairman Shouts o f the Panama
canal is sure they have at last secured a first class hotel keeper on the isthmus. This great international work, like others of equal importance, has been awaiting a Boniface. Ojyen Meredith expressed a great truth in saying: We can live without art, we can live without books, but civ ilized men cannot live without cooks.
Secretary Shumway of the state board of health gives ‘notice o f the fact that health officers in various parts o f the state are failing to enforce the quarantine regulations prescribed by law, and he suggests the danger that Michigan may be visited by another smallpox outbreak if this neglect is continue. It would seem that those who are responsible for the enforcement o f township and village and city health laws could hardly afford to accept the responsibility which failure to do their fu ll duty might involve, regardless of their- individual views in the matter. It is certainly true that the desire o f t.he great majority of the people of our state is for the fu ll enforcement of the measures provided for the prevention of disease and for its limitation so far as adaquate means in that direction will provide The best efforts of one community can be made of little value through the careless ness o f another. Enforcement of health laws is a matter o f statewide importance and is deserving of statewide attention and respect.

ONE BOY A YEAR THERE.Situation Given as Cause for Fact
That Most Children Bom " Are Girls.
The startling fa ct has ju st been brought out that o f all the births that have occurred at Carson City, the capital o f Nevada, during the past year, duly one b oy has been born. The to ta l number o f births ‘ according to statistics, was 57; 5(5 o f these young N evadans are girls. Physicians state that it is n ot unusual fo r the ratio to be uneven, and in favor o f the girls, but they cannot recall where the percentage has been so great. They offer no explanation fo r the strange condition.
" I t ju s t happened th at way, I guess,” said one o f the Carson doctors. "W e noticed the shortage in the num ber o f b irths so fa r as boys w ere concerned, but, really, until a few days ago, gave the m atte r but little thought. I t was brought to m y attention by Contro ller Sam D avis. I have since tried to solve the m ystery, but w ithout result.” I
Environm ent is given as a s o lu - ' tion by one resident o f Carson. The city, naturally isolated, is beautifu lly situated in a va lley ; trees and shrubbery and pretty hom es abound. E xcept during the session o f the legislature, there is seldom anything out o f the ordinary going on. These quiet conditions, it-is argued, naturally result in a fem inine tem peram ent, the preponderance o f girls in the birth records resulting.

Criminal Cases Will Occupy First Three Weeks of October
The September term of the Berrien circuit court convened yesterday for the hearing of criminal cases, and about three weeks will be required for this part o f the calendar. There are twenty-nine case's to come under this head.' Of these cases, eleven prisoners are now in jail aW-iiting trail, and many others are o it on bail. Jimes Maxwell, the al le ed diamond thief, who jumped his bond and skipped to Rhode Island, was reported the first of the week to have been arrested at Providence, but the Berrien county officials have as yet heard nothing from him and it is surmised that he was released there on bail and has eluded the officers.
Sheriff Tennant has been looking for a letter every day, but up to this time has received no word.
John Laird, who is charged with stealing a cow, is booked as the first to come for trial. Laird is considered one o f the worst criminals now incarcerated within the county jail having a record behind him. In the assignment o f cases, Daniel Hawkins, charged with burglary, follows the Laird case. This morning comes the cases of The People vs Chauncey Jackson for aiding a ward of the industrial school to escape People vs, John W aid, assault with intent to do great bodily harm; and People vs. Win, Hill.
There is a disposition on the part of all the criminals to stand trial, but it is believed that a few of them will plead guilty, which will shorten the time for the criminal cases.
The assignment o f jury civil cases will be made in two weeks.
The supervisors will meet on Monday, Oct. 2, for the regular October session, and many matters of importance will come up for discussion aside from the usual routine o f work.

Because her parents wanted her to attend college, Miss Ethel Shoemaker, a pretty 19 year-old Chicago girl, ran away from home last week and was not heard o f agaiD until the police located her, the girl having secured a position in one o f the South Haven canning factories, Friday under the assumed name of Ethel Gilbert.
The girl’s father is a wealthy manufacturer in Chicago, and hoped to send his daughter to an institution of learning this fall, but when preparations were being made she disappeared.
All jvent smoothly until an elderly man called at the factory and asked if a Miss Shoemaker was there. Upon being informed that no such name was on the pay roll, he produced a picture of the missing girl, whom the clerk recognized as Miss “ Gilbert.”

Less than two years after his marriage Dayman began to overlook bis promise to stay away from the club after he reached home at night, says the New York Times. A t first he moved cautiously, pleading a business appointment there and promising to be back in an hour. Soon that promise began to slip bis mind, and he came home at all hours. He did not even give an excuse for going. Mrs. Dayman did not rush home to her mother. She did not appeal to his mother. She played her own game. One evening, when dayman showed no inclination to leave the house, she said
"John, dear, you’ll be late at the club.”
“How do you know I’m going?” be asked.
“Not going? Oh,”—affecting intense confusion—“it would be most awkward, that is—but of course you’re going.”
“Well,” he replied, “I must just run around, for I have an appointment. But I shall be back in two hours.”
He was back in one hour, and seemed astonished to find his wife alone, reading. He was glum all the evening, showing frequent disposition to go out again. But the same game has worked .ever since.

JEWISH NEW YEAR
Marks Beginning of Year 5,066 Dating Back to Creation in Hebrew
Calendar
“ Bosh Hasbona,” or the JewishNew Year, will be celebrated in Detroit and the world over Saturday, September 30.
The New Year festival is one of the most important on the Jewish calendar o f religious observances. It is known as the feast of trumpets, and the “ Shofer” or ram’s horn occupies a very conspicuous place in the day’s worship.
The first day of “ Rosh Hashona” marks the beginning of the year 5666, which period dates back to creation The Jewish calendar being computed by the lunar system, tbe date of the Jewish New Year does not always fall upon the same date on the Christian calendar. For instance, the Jewish New Year in 1904 occurred September 10. The first lunar month of the Jewish year is the month o f “ Tishri.”
Orthodox Jews observe two days of the New Year festival, beginning next Friday evening at sundown and continuing until sundown Sunday evening. In reformed circles, the festival closes at sundown Saturday.
Ten days after the first day o f the New Year occurs the “ Y om kippur,” or Day of Atonement. The day is observed with fasting and prayer, and is looked upon as the most solemn and universally lecognized festival observed by the Jews throughout the world. *
“ Rosh Hashona,” too is universally observed. Where other Jewish festi vals are lost sight o f in..in any communities, the New Year and Day of Atonement retain a sacred palace in Jewish life.
Many Detroit business houses, the heads of which are Jews, will be closed to all business on both o f these occasions. ^
In the orthodox synagogues, Beth David, Beth Jacob, B’nai Israel and Sha’are Zedek, services will be held Friday evening, Saturd ay and Sunday while in Temple Beth E l, services will be conducted Friday evening and Saturday.
Aside from these regular places of worship, services will be held by orthodox bodies in several halls on the east side. These additional places are necessitated by the vast multitude o f worshipers who observe these festivals.
It is a noteworthy incident, that during the Russo-Turkish and other wars of recent years, JewisTi soldiers have been given furloughs on those festivals that they might spend the day in worship on the battle field. During the Spanish-American war, the United States government extended a similar furlough, which was taken advantage o f by nearly 2,000 Jewish soldiers serving Uncle Sam.
