NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY. APRIL 30, 1881.


Last Sunday afternoon Robert E.
Frazer, who is soon to become citizen
of our village, was given "send off, at
Ann Arbor by his numerous "red ribbon
friends. The Ann Arbor Courier in Civ
ing notice of the event says:
Next Sabbath afternoon, at 8 o'clock,
at the opera house, arrangements have
been made for farewell meeting to
Robert E. Frazer. our distinguished fell
low tOwnSman, who is soon to leave us
for a home in the northern portion of
our state, having decided to locate per-
maHently in the thriving village of Che
bOygan. Mr.. Frazer we all know. His
courage and stamina in taking a firm
stand, and sticking to 1t, is worthy of the
highest praise that can be afforded to a
man.
1t is with no feeling of pleasure that
the citizens of this community part with
MIR. Frazer, and deep regret is expressed
on every side, that he deems a change of
locality essential. He first came to this
city as student from Detroit, i'm the
year 1860, and after completing course
of study and graduating from the univer-
sity. he settled down among us and COM
menced the practice of law. Since then
he has lived in our midst continuously,
holding offices of trust at different times.
Next Sunday afternoon will be the last
time he will address meeting as citi-
zen of our city, and his parting words
will be of interest to our people. He de-
serves rousing farewell meeting, and
we have not the faintest doubt but that
he will be greeted with such an one as
the opera house never held before.

S. LIE Gault & Son are headquarters
for everything they sell.


AnsOn R. Dodge, of Mullet lake, is the
recipient of a handsome and unique
present from his friend Anwell Lafave
formerly of ChebOygan, but now of Red
Cliff, Colorado. 1t consists of Mason
ic emblem, square and compass, formed
of 36 different specimens of minerals
petrifactiOns &c. from that state. The
specimens include gold, silver and iron
orr, agates of different kinds, gypsum,
several fossils &C., the whole very neatly
and handsomely arranged and number
ed with printed list accompanying
telling the nature of each numbered
specimen. Mr.. Dodge has had the en-
blem mounted and handsomely framed
so as to preserve it intact and appreci-
ates the present very highly.
7. j. Crumley was also favored by a
present from Mr.. Lafave of the same
number of specimens very handsomely
arranged in the shape of a horse shoe
full size, each specimen numbered as in
the above. Among the latter specimens
were some from mines in which
Mr.. Lafave is personally interested. Mr.
Crumley appreciates the gift and prizes
livery highly.

Navigation Open.

The propeller Van Raalte has the hon
or Of being the first craft to leave this
port for the season of 1881. She succeed
ing in working her way through the ice
into the open water of lake Huron yes
terday afternoon about 2 o'clock and
soon disappeared around the north side
of BOis Blanc island on her way to Mack
inac and St. Ignace. Capt. BOnchard
made his first attack on the ice, with the
Van Raalte, last Tuesday forenoon, but
found the ice too solid to make much
impression on it. His second attempt was
on Wednesday when he started out
about nine A. NJ. and persevered until
evening making his way through the ice
to within 40 or so rods of the open water.
Yesterday morning he made his third
venture and succeeded in getting out
during the afternoon. This will have
the effect to loosen the ice and allow the
wind to carry it away and we do not ap-
prehend that hereafter any serious diff
iculty will interp0se to prevent any of
the larger steamers coming into port.
Capt. BOuchard evidently had no diff
fculty after getting through the ice here
as he stopped at Mackinac Island and
reached st. Ignace about six o'clock.

The Anniversary Party.

The anniversary party given last Tues
day night at the Town Hall by Temple
Lodge No. 331. l. o. 0. F. as predicted by
the TRIBUNE. was one of the most sue
cessful affairs of the season. The COM
mittees had been indefatigable in their
efforts to make it grand success and
the result showed that their efforts were
not in vain. Seventy-five tickets were
sold and the hall was comfortably crowd
ed. The details had been so well looked
after by the different committees that
everything could not help but pass off
smoothly. Dancing was kept up until
the "wee" hours of morn and everybody
was happy. The ladies were particular
ly interested in the goat" of the society,
which was on exhibition and the animal
created considerable amusement. The
receipts amounted to $73 which will
leave the lodge neat little amount to
add to their treasury.

Success.

The wonderful success which has at
tended the introduction of DR.. Whites
DandeliOn Alternative, is doubtless due
to the fact that 1t an honest medicine,
and will perform all that is claimed for
it, and DR.. White must certainly have
great confidence in his medicine, for he
authorizes all druggists to sell it under a
positive guarantee, such as is given on
no other medicine in the market. 1t is
specific for billiOusness, liver complaint,
fever and ague, dyspepsia, kidney dis
ease, rheumatism, and constipation of
the bowels, and as blood purifier and
renOyator, it is positively unequaled.

Here is your weather for May.

Professor Vennor's predictions for May
are as follows: Toward the end of the
first week in May, or about the 5th and
9th, snOw-falls may be looked for in the
lower provinces of Canada, and about
May frOsts are probably in Central and
Southern Illinois, with rain and snow
prevailing in some localities. There
will also, in all probability, be snOw-falls
through the Gulf and st. Lawrence dis
trict about the 7th and 9Th. After the
10th of May, however, hot weather may
be expected, and after the 10Th bush-fres
will probably break out in certain dis
tricts, although thunder-storms are also
probably on the 18th and 18th. Between
the Goth and 25th there will probably be
cloudy weather, with rains, and vegeta-
tiOn will have advanced considerably by
the oath of the month. Between the 10th
and 25th the weather will probably be
cool. The month will end hot and sui
