Mackinac, PetOskey and Traverse
City.

Last week we stated that Hannah. Lay
& Co., of Traverse City, had purchased
the propeller 7. S. FaxtOn to run in con-
nection with their other steamers City
of Traverse and City of Grand Rapids.
From the Traverse City Herald we learn
that the FaxtOn is boat about the size
of the City of Grand Rapids and is much
like it in general appearance. 1t will
be entirely refitted and put in elegant
shape. 1t carries strong, compound
engine and is rapid and handsome
boat. These two fine steamers will form
a daily line fromiTraverse City to Mack
mac, one boat leaving each of the above
named points every morning during the
pleasure season, making the entire run
by daylight, stopping at the principal
points. This line will do the passenger
business for the G. R. & l. railroad, be-
tween Petoskey and Mackinac, the rail-
road company putting on no boats mex
year. The formation of this line cannot
fail to be beneficial to this entire Sec
tion which has become to be the most
popular pleasure resort i'm the country
Every increase of facilities for travel
will attract the attention of tourists
more and more toward this portion of
the state, for nowhere can more varied
attractions be found, and when once
here they will be sure to take it all i'm.
