We received a pleasant call, Thurs
day of last week, from s. f. Mullin, Of
Chase. He reports building as lively
in that village, this season. Mr.. nj. is
erecting one of the finest dwellings in
the county.

A huge wolf had been slaughtering
sheep for Henry Stowe, Of Pinora
township, recently; and in spirit Of
revenge, justice and mercy Ito the re-
mainder of his flOck), Mr.. s. laid poi
sonous trap for the "varmint," and
speedily brought II to final account.
The carcass of the brute weighed 81 sibs,
and measured 5 feet, inches from the
TIP Of its nose TO tip of its tail. III
Reports from Clare county, state that
deer are very scarce In that locality,
this FAIL 10y reason Of the slaughtering
docs at the season when they are rear
ing their young, and then the fawns
starve to death. 1t would seem that
the settlers complain of the destruction
of deer by foreign hunters, when they
themselves are the most cruel, ruthless
exterlninators of the graceful animals.

=, The attention of our readers is called
to the new advertisement of DeLama-
ter Mills, Of Baldwin, to be found else
where in this issue of the STAR. We
feel safe i'm recommending the proprie-
tor, w. III. DeLamater, to the patron
age of the people of Lake county and
vicinity, believing he will give them
fair dealing and good work. The mill
is much-needed improvement i'm the
county, and we trust the enterprise
may meet with the encouragement it
deserves. tts
