BUILDING.
We have spoken of the eleven
stores and opera house now in pro-
cess of construction at Alpena, OF
the water works, and we think, OF
the new timber mill, which Geo.
Prentiss is building at the foot OF
Chisholm street, the work thereon
being under the supervision of Mr..
Van Patten, of Saginaw it is more
than probable that three saw mills
will also be built the present sea-
son. A $4,000 court house is al
so TO be erected and Of private
residences costing all the way from
$4,000 down to $500, at least fifty
are in progress or under contract
or consideration at various points
within the now somewhat roomy
enclosure bounded by the lines
which mark the corporate limits Of
Alpena.
WORTHY ENTERPRISE.
Men cannot live by bread alone,
nor hv business alone without rea-
sonable recreation, life is burden
and existence n barren fraud. Hon.
Worthy L. Churchill realizing this
fact is building a handsome steam
yacht keel, 35 feet: length over
all, 40 feet, breadth, % feet to be
supplied with steel boilers, SxS
inch engine, ~ inch wheel, and all
the requisite appointments either
for business or pleasure to be
staunch, sea-worthy and so fitted
out as to afford the very best of
facilities for comfort, convenience
and pleasure-which is at times
better than money-on that most
beautiful of bays which bears so
placidly all the while that awful
name of Thunder.

Alpena and the Shore.

Hon. Geo. f. Lewis, editor Of the
Saginawian, who visited the shore a
few weeks since, writes the follow
ing correspondence to his paper:
This is not a good year for "the
shore" to such as judge Of country
chiefly by It's farming products and
capabilities. The season has thus
far been unusually backward, and,
as below there have been many
frosts; but here they caught fruit,
such as there is, chiefly in blossom,
nipped the early potatoes at the
first peep aud froze the vines at
the first leaf. yet all things are
coming on again, and as the water
surroundings modifies the effect
of the autumn cold spells there is
ample time for ample crops, and the
