Last week we were in error in stating
that Hentschell Brothers were building
an office adjoining their ice house. That
office is an ice house for storing ice for
the use of Smith Brothers line of steam
ers.

met your notice upon entering the post
office was the announcement over the
general delivery window, mo train since
Sunday" Business was quiet at the office
during the day, but Wednesday morning
they had 1t quite lively, twelve bags of

The Southern Michigan Cedar and
Lumber company brought in three teams
from Sturgis, st. Joseph county, the first

been hauling 1t to the mill of the com

The interest in securing the location
at this point of the Union Chair works
is on the increase. One gentleman who
subscribed quite literally to the fund to

these works than he did towards the rail
road, and this seems to be the sentiment
generally.
A letter received by one of our citizens
from the clerk of the steamer St. Paul,
states that she will probably run next
season between Ogdensburg, N. Y. and
Chicago, making Cheboygan one of her
stopping places. The st. Paul is great
favorite as a passenger boat, and in our
opinion would do a large passenger trade
on this formerly popular route.

MolOney Brothers have their brewery

arranged for the business in the most
convenient manner; pumps and pipes
conducting hot and cold water to all
parts of the building where needed. The
cellars are perfection and are supplied
