The dangers from the electric wires
when charged with electricity, can be
seen from the following dispatch to
the Detroit Free Press, from New
York: A runaway broke down one
of the electric lamp poles and trailed
the wire upon the pavement. A pass
ing horse stepped upon the wire, there
was flash of purple light, report
like pistol shot, all the lights on the
avenue went out, and the horse fell
dead. A moment later q another
horse stepped upon the wire and
dropped dead like the first. IF a
person had stepped upon the wire he
would have shared the fate Of the
horses.

Change Of Firm.

G. II. Nellis, who has for some years
been engaged in the boot and shoe bust
ness in this city, recently bought the
store of c. L. Kittredge, at Bay City,
and last week Mr.. Nellis sold his es-
Enlistment in Alpena, so that he is no
more one of the business men of our
town. But we are pleased to state
that Heiram Sprague and G. L. Kit
tredge have taken possession of the
Elephant Shoe Store, in the Opera
House block, and propose to continue
the business of selling boots and shoes
at live and let live prices. Mr..
Sprague, who is we'll and favorably
known to most of the people of this
county, has taken charge of the store
here and will endeavor to please as
many of the people of this vicinity as
favor him with their patronage.

Shore Stages.

Yesterday eight horses of good
shape and in good heart were sent up
on the steamer Arundel to Oscoda,
where the equipments, first-class four
horse coaches, robes, wraps, and all
needed appointments with the other
horses, all that are needed to insure
the best of service, have gone before,
the veteran stager Nathan Green,
having organized a line to run from
Oscoda to Alpena in connection with
the new narrow gauge railway which
will be certain to give complete salts
faction to passengers. Service will
commence by this new route next
Monday, a four horse coach leaving
Alpena every morning except Sunday,
and leaving Oscoda also every morn
ing, the time of the trains making it
inconvenient, if not impossible, to run
through from point to point either
way, without lay-over Of one night.

Detroit about ten o'clock at night.
on the return, person will be able to
leave Detroit in the morning, arrive
at Au Sable in the early part of the
afternoon and embark ON board the
stage, and in six hours time the horses
are to land him at Alpena, reaching
this city about ten o'clock at night.
The distance to be travelled by stage
is about fifty-seven miles. If the
managers can fulfil this program, the
stage line will be very popular, and n
ride over the route can not help but
be an exhilerating one, and well worth
taking by those who like novel trip.

OF late there has been many appli-
cants for situations in the various
lumber camps, but the usual answer
they got was "that the camps were
full" AT present there is consider
able over plus of labor, far in excess
of the demand. This is owing to the
fact that cedar and numbering opera
tions are not as extensive as last win
ter, and also to the large influx of
labor from Canada, during the last
month of navigation. A number of
the men left town by steamer City of
Cleveland last Friday.

We trust that heavy ten line edi-
torial, with many capitals, did not in
iure the gigantic intellect of the or
gan man. That was the greatest eff
fort of his life, and that ten lines was
all he had on his editorial page. He
should not exhaust himself in such a
reckless manner. Let him write a
five line one, or six line one, but
please do not be so rash as to write a
long ten line editorial. There may
be some of his readers who expect
him to write more than ten lines, but
some people expect too much. Give
the man fair show.

A young man named Bobinett, who
was at work at one of the camps of
the Messrs. Potter, received fatal in
jury while burying stone on one of
the log roads, last week, and died
from the effects thereof. 1t appears
that it was necessary to remove a
stone from the road, and Bobinett re-
quested Mr.. Phelps the foreman, to
let him bury the stone as he was used
to that sort of business at his fathers
farm. Bobinett commenced the work,
but soon ascertained that the stone
was much larger than had been an
ticipated. He dug large hole about
FIVE feet deep alongside the stone,
and then tried to pry it over into the
hole, but the stone would not move,
Getting into the hole again, he COM
menced to dig still deeper, when the
stone suddenly fell against him, and
he was held firmly for some time I'M
til he was dug out. At that time he
was thought to be uninjured, and
merely complained of slight bruises.
A few days afterwards it was thought
necessary to send fora doctor, and a
messenger was sent to Mason's farm
and telephoned for DIR. Shelton. The
doctor travelled the forty-fve miles
over the rough roads, as fast as pos
sible, and OH his arrival did all in
his power to aid the sufferer, who, it
appears, was injured internally. Bob
inett lived a day or so after the doc
tors visit. The body was brought
to town last Sunday, coffin was pro.
cured, and j. f. Denton engaged last
Monday to take the remains to Au
Sable, at which place they will be
placed aboard the train-Messrs. Pot
ter paying the expenses. The de-
ceased's home was at Macedonia, Sum
NIT county, Ohio.
