The Decennial Census.

The time for taking the Decennial
census is fast approaching. The work
will commence the first Monday in June
and has to be completed and the returns
made during that month. There is a
heavy penalty for obstructing the census
takers while in the performance of their
duties. The law says:
All persons above the age of 21 years
who shall refuse to furnish the infOrma-
ton required by the supervisor or nu-
meratOr shall forfeit and pay a sum not
exceeding 800, to be recovered in an &C
count of debt. Presidents, directors, and
other officials of private corporations
who refuse to furnish information re-
Quired of them are made liable to pen
atty not to exceed $40.
The compensation allowed for numera-
tors, excepting in sparseely settled ter
ritOry, where it is fixed at a certain sum
per day, is as follows:
Two cents for each living inhabitant;
two cents for every death reported; ten
cents for each farm, fifteen cents for
each mandatory, which is to be in full
for all services, and no milage or trav-
cling expenses. The subdivision assign
ed to each numeratOr must not exceed
1000 inhabitants.
We have heretofore called attention to
the importance of farmers having a cor
rect estimate Of crops, raised last year
ready to return to the enumeration when
called upon. 1t is very important to our
county that as correct showing as pos
sible he made.

improvements ON MulIet Lake.

In addition to the extensive improve
ments being made on Mullett lake by
our enterprising fellow citizens, Smith
Brothers, which we have noticed at length
from time to time, there are others being
made, and although not of so extensive
character, yet they will have an impor-
tant influence upon the future of that
section. Among the most notable of
these are those being made by Herman
KRhler, on Hardwood point, across the
bay from the Mullet Lake Hotel. Mr..
K9hler settled at this point in NOyem-
Der, 1878, and commenced clearing his
land. Since then he has built dock
120 feet long and sixteen feet wide, and
put up large building, which he de-
signs using for hotel, This building
is 24x3S feet with an addition 16x24 feet,
all two stories high. 1t contains Is
rooms, the ceilings of which are all 10
feet high.
He is now building large addition to
his dock, extending it out into the lake
120 feet further, the addition being 80
feet wide and having depth of water
from to feet ON all sides. The dock
rests upon cribs which are so arranged
as to afford complete protection from
the waves no matter from what direction
they come. This will enable boats to
stop at the dock at all times with safety
and comfort. He has not been idle in
clearing up his farm, and expects to have
30 acres cleared and in crops during the
coming season.
Mr. KGhler informs us that there is
good prospect of large German immi-
grafton to that section, from Detroit and
Saginaw, the coming season. Two par
ties visited him couple of weeks since
as representatives of the Detroit colony,
and were favOrably impressed with the
location and chances offered. He has
been in correspondence with persons in
The Saginaw valley, and has no doubt
out that quite number from that Sec
ton will locate here in the spring. One
gentleman talks of putting up a saw
mill i'm Mr.. Kehler's neighborhood, if
suitable location can be found. Some of
the most substantial citizens of the val
ley are Germans, and these having sons
grown up are looking out for promising
sections where they can locate their boys
and have them follow the examples of
their fathers and grow upwith the cOun-
try, and this section seems to strike them
favOrably,

A Fine Steamer.

Messrs. Hannah, Lay & Co., of Traverse
City are making extensive improvements
in the steamer City of Traverse, to more
fully meet the requirements of the
Chicago, Traverse City & Mackinaw
route, upon which she will run as last
year. The main cabin is being extend
the full length Of the boat, which will
make it over two hundred feet in length.
The kitchen, deck hands rooms &c. are
being removed to the lower deck and the
entire available space put into accOmm0-
datiOns for passengers, which will give
about seventy cOmmodi0us state rooms.
Both the cabin and state rooms will be
furnished in the most luxurious manner
and when the City of Traverse comes out,
she will not be surpassed in elegance by
any boat on the lakes, it is claimed. not
even by the celebrated Nyack. We have
no doubt that the enterprise of the own
ers will be more than repaid by the in
crease of travel over route which be-
came justly popular last season. We can
not but renew the wish expressed last
year that the City of Traverse, would dur
ing the day that she remains at Macki-
nav make the run to ChebOygan.

Burned Out.

Last Saturday evening the residence
and hot house of AdOlph Gerrisher, who
lives out on the Mackinaw road in the
Vincent neighborhOod, was entirely con-
sumed with fire, and almost the entire
possessions of Mr.. Gerrisher and family
were swept from existence. Mr.. Ger
FISHER had just got fairly started at gar
dening and floral culture. and was look
ing forward to the future, hoping to
realize something for the investment he
had made and labor expended, when in
one brief moment, the Unsuitable flames
took it all. The fire originated from the
stove in the hot house, and had got such
Roadway that it could not be checked.
Mr.. Gerrisher had a large lot of
plants and vegetables in very forward
condition, and had brought lettuce al
ready to market. Messrs. H. j. Miner
and F. ]. Phelps circulated a subscrip-
ton paper Tuesday. for the benefit of Mr..
Gerrisher, and our citizens showed their
sympathy in very substantial manner.
They raised $40.5O in cash and orders
and due bills for goods to the amount of
$48.88, besides large amount of cloth
ing and bedding was donated outside
of the efforts of these gentlemen.

In terror flee from LiUer Pills.

Encouraged be, nor yeild to fears,
Repose in quiet, health's bright rills
