City of ChebOYgan.

This new steamer, being built for
Smith Brothers, to run on the finland
route, in connection with the Northern
Bell, is going to be model of neatness.
She will differ from the Northern Belle in
that she will have two cabins, one fore
and aft, each fitted out with taste and
elegance. The ladies cabin, which is aft,
will be IS feet by II feet, with wash
room and water closet in the rear. The
gentlemen's cabin will be forward of the
engines and will be IL feet long by IL
feet in width at the rear and feet at
forward end. There will be sufficient
width of deck each side of the cabins for
passengers to pass back and forward and
considerable deck room aft of the ladies
cabin where passengers can enjoy them
selves in various ways. She will also
have more room in her hold for freight
or baggage than the Belle has. The
boiler is approaching completion and as
soon as it is done the steamer will be
completed as rapidly as possible.
About 100000 feet of logs are banked
at False Presque Isle.

Happy Little Ones.

To the Editor of the NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
We have had many pleasant and brill
liant gatherings here this season, but
decidedly the sweetest occurred. on
Wednesday afternoon at the residence of
R. Robinson. given in honor of little Will
lies first birthday. Fifteen little ones,
from two years up to six, came rosy and
smiling, each bringing an offering. The
presents were numerous and beautiful.
Willie was wild with delight. He would
kiss the sweet mouths and pat the soft
little cheeks i'm his baby way, to show
his pleasure. Willie's mama made
everything so pleasant for them. Games
and nice refreshments were amply pro-
yided. The children were all models of
good behavior. ~. sr.r 4, a4...
One little lady, On being asked her age,

May Willie live to be a joy and honor to
his parents, and each birthday be as en-

regretted that he had not secured the
services of photographer and kept a
picture of the prettiest scene he had ever
witnessed. a A.

Plant Trees.

We would suggest to our citizens the
prOpriety of planting shade trees along
the streets in front of their property.
Last season quite number were plant
ed and it would seem that the majority
of them have survived, and the buds are
already beginning to swell upon them.
Heretofore planting shade trees has not
been successful venture, they almost
invariably dying, but from the success
attending the efforts of those who tried
it last year, we hope all will take new
courage and enter upon the work this
spring with renewed confidence. Moth
ing adds more to the beauty and pleasant
appearance of town, than handsome
shade trees along the streets. We see
no reason why ChebOygan should not be
we'll supplied in this respect. The trees
for planting can be found in abundance
quite convenient to the village and GER
tainly the small expense i'm procuring
them and setting out, and the taking
care of them would be amply repaid in a
few years by the improved appearance of
the village, and the comfort of having
nicely shaded walks during the heat of
the day in summer. We make the sug-
gestiOn, and would be glad to see it car
ried out by the citizens.

Questions Requiring solution.
CHEBOYGAN. AnriI 8

CHEBOYGAN, April 9Th, 1880.
Mr.. EDITOR-Please answer the fol-
lowing questions and OblIge yours, e.
POLLY PIPKINS.
1st. If person is born i'm this cOun-
try, and lives in it until he is three
years old, and then removes to Canada,
attains to his majority there, becomes a
property holder and voter there, and
then returns to this country, is he
voter here, simply upon the strength of
his nativity?
End. If not voter, is he not then an
alien? '..rs
Bird. If an alien, has he any right to
vote? 5ls.ag-
4th. If he has not rightstoI vote, has
he any right to hold office? -.
9Th. If he has no right to hold Office,
is there not some fam ahead for the new
ly elected Supervisor of the township of
Beaugrand? ...- r.,
ANSWERS.
No. 1, In answering this question we
would say that under the common law
a native born citizen of any country can
not renOunce his allegiance to the. cOun-
try where born, except by the consent of
his native country, and that section one
of article IA of the constitution of the
United States provides "That all persons
born or naturalized i'm the United States
and subject to the jurisdiction thereof,
are citizens of the United States and of
the state wherein they reside" AS to
whether such person as represented in
this question would be entitled to vote
would depend upon the length of his
residence i'm the state and town wherein
his vote was offered, and also as to
whether he was properly registered.
No. 2. A person may be citizen of the
United States and yet not be a voter in
any particular locality, unless it be in
the town of Benton where they register
at any time and vote if their cOnsciences
will admit of their taking the oath.
No. 3. Yes, aliens have a right to vote
in this state under some circumstances.
viz: A person who has resided in this
state two years and six months and who
has declared his intention of becoming
citizen, six months next preceding an
election, has right to vote at such cleo
tiOn, although an alien. ~. st--.-..
No. 4. Yes.-There are certain circum-
stances under which person can hold
Office when he is not a voter, also certain
Offices that can be held by persons who
are not even electors. For instance, a
person who is not registered could not
vote, but could hold office. Also, females
in this state are not electors but can
hold certain school offices.
| No. 3. If this is a cOnundrum we
would refer it to those who correctly
solved the 13-15-14 puzzle.

When 1t is called grape sugar it is in a solid form This is being used considerably in New York ln mixing sugar, making what is called im- proved sugar. Witness understood that the Buffalo Grape Sugar Company was interested in this making of sugars in New York. At the present time the demand for grape sugar exceeds the supply and the price of it has in- creased. In 1874 thirty pounds of sugar were made from one bushel or ifty-six pounds of corn. The price was then from 34 to and sometimes 4 cents pound The refuse is sold for feed, and the price of it was from seven to eight cents bushel. In mixing sugar the grape sugar is pulverized and about twenty-five per cent added to cane sugar It improves the color of the sugar, and enables dealers to sell it for better price. During 1874 and 1875 the earnings were about $15, ,000 month, and in 1876 they averaged from $19, 900 to $2O, GOO. In 1877 the earn 1ngs for one month were $35, ,OOO.

In some respects it costs less per bushel to run large amount of corn than It would to consume a small quantity. l The net profit per bushel from 1874 to 1879 was from 40 to 90 cents.

For upward of twenty-five years Dr. Light hill has been at the head of an extensive met ropolitan practice, devoted exclusively to the relief and cure of Deafness, Catarrh, aud dis eases of the Throat, Lungs and Nervous Sys- tenn, and it is with pardonable pride that he refers to the extraordinary success which at tended his efforts. His recent discoveries are of the highest practical importance, render ing treatment so effectual that relief is expe- rienced at once, and permanent cures are of ten effected in the most stubborn and aggra- vated cases; and it is one of the happy fea- lures of his method that the applications cause neither pain nor distress, and can be readily administered to the most timid or nervous person. A candid opinion will inva- riabl. be given as to the possibilities of a cure, and no case will be accepted for treat ment which does not present a reasonable chance for success, while those who place themselves under Dr. Lighthilrs professional care may rest assured of receiving every ben eft guaranteed by science, skill, and an ex- tensive experience.
