a person who wishes his family to
keep posted on what is going on in
Alpcna, in Michigan, and in the
world, can not invest the small sum
of 1925 to better advantage.
In these progressive times a man
is obliged to keep posted on what is
going on, and we offer him a first
class chance, at a very small expense,
of doing so. No man who has the
welfare Of his family at heart can re-
fuse to invest such small sum for
their advantage.

knights OF the Maccabees.

The Knights of the Maccabees are
making splendid record in this State
both for furnishing cheap life insur-
ance and prompt payment of death
claims. We see by the Saginaw
Evening Express that one John c.
Thompson of that City, member of
the order died recently. He carried
the following life insurance
Connecticut Mutual $4,000
Mutual Life of New York 1000
Washington Life of New York 1000
Michigan Commercial Traveller 1000
Knights of the Maccabees 1000
The Knights of the Maccabees we're
the first to pay the widow of the de-
ceased. The draft was received just
one week from the date of Mr.. Thomp-
sons death and only two days after
the proofs of his death were forwarded.
From all we can learn the order GER
tainly furnishes the cheapest life in
surance of any society or company in
the State. Last year entire cost OIL
81 900 insurance was $500 to each
member. There is certainly no excuse
for any one being without life insur-
ance when it can be procured at so
triAing cost. There is a tent of the
order in this city. They hold their
meetings in knights of Honor hall,
Potter block. The officers are as fol-
lows:

AS usual after u weeks stormy
gales, the weather cleared off by
Sunday, and all the tugs managed to
make lift. They got to their wharfs
little after dusk and most Of them
had good lifts. About 10000 lbs. of
trout were captured. Some of them
bore the mark V. X. OH their backs,
which means that they were the pro-
pcrty Of Queen Victoria, but the
readers need not believe this statement
unless their capacities for swallowing
tough yarns are first class. We won't
be responsible for any strangulations
that result from it. When you tell Il
fish story always be truthful. Don't
exaggerate.
Last Saturday Sheriff Denton, for
and in behalf of certain New York
men, seized some of the goods in the
stores in the Minton block, formerly
owned by N. III. Epsteyn, but as the
goods had been purchased by Mr..
Klock, the New York men will pro-
badly lose money by the operation.
The levy was made in order to settle
an account Mr.. EpsteYn owed them
for goods he had purchased. If they
can hold the goods bought by Mr..
Klock, then they can, by the same
rule, seize the numberless coats, hats +,
neck-ties, drawers, shirts, handker-
chiefs, caps and other articles of ap.
parel, that were bought by the many
customers of Mr.. Epsteyn, and they
would have lively time doing so.
There appears to be but very few
fish in the bay this year. The famous
trap net grounds at North Point,
Sulphur island, and Scarecrow island
are failures this year, so far. At the
North Point nets about nine hundred
pounds of fish was lifted last week,
but wree mostly herring. White fish
and trout seem to have deserted the
bay, The gill net fishing about the
vicinity of the reef north of Thunder
Bay island, is also reported bad.
Fishermen, who have nets there, COM
plain that the fishing tugs deposit
some of the fish offal on those grounds,
which is thought to be partly respons-
iblc for the scarcity of fish at those
places. The fishing tugs have good
lifts of trout but they go as far as the
big reef, which is distant about thirty
or forty miles from port and about
half way across to Canada. At this
reef the trout appear to be having an
international session, and having for
discussion the interesting Ito them
subject "flow shall we avoid the gill
nets" One big trout was caught in
the act of delivering an Grafton on
"Our Dear Departed Friends" A
resolution was offered at the meeting
and unanimously passed requesting
Uncle Sam and Queen Vic. to prevent
fishermen from using gill nets with
meshes not less than twelve inches
in size. If any one doubts this story,
let him go to the fish international
hall at the big reef, twenty
fathoms under water, and he will soon
find out what truth there is in it.
Some people doubt even the most rea-
sonable fish yarn.
