as Black River, aud then the shore
followed to this city. The Hubbard
Lake route would open up large
tract Of first class farming land, the
products of which would come to Al.
pena for n market. BY the same
route, the railroad would have large
amount of saw logs to carry from the
Hubbard Lake region to this port,
and large quantities of cedar and
other timber, could find an outlet over
the same line. We hope there may be
some truth about the report. The
Black River route would open up no
land to speak Of, and would be mere
ly convenience for passengers, fast
freight, mails, etc.
1t is expected that the train will
not leave Oscoda until II o'clock,
noon, before long, as the completion
of the Rifle River bridge allows trains
to reach Alger much quicker. A
person leaving Alpena about -four
o'clock in the morning, would be able
with good team, to reach Oscoda
in time to catch the train the same
day and be in Detroit, on the night
of the day that he left Alpena.
The famous Rifle River railroad
bridge was completed, and trains be-
gan running over the same, on Tues
day. A test was made of its bearing
capacity, and the first train which
crossed it contained tho president o
the road, Gen. r. A. Algcr. 1t is on'
of the largest and the highest rail
road bridges in the State, and is suffi
GENTLY strong to hold up all the ca
weight that can be placed upon it
The cost Of building the structure
has been something like $4,000
The cars heretofore used between tn
bridge and Alger are now added t.
those used on this side of the bridg
and the through train consists of
parlor car, a coach, smoking car ant
baggage car, drawn by a fast locomo
tive. The business of the road
rapidly increasing and the owners o
it are convinced that it is q payin
investment. Since Monday seven ne,
standard-size box-cars have lande
here, and several new flats. The ne'
equipments for the road are all frs
class in every respect, and they ar
being added as rapidly rs needed
Icsco Gazette.
The new depot building of the d.
troit, Bay City & Alpena railroad
nearly completed. The building
enclosed and the roof on. On Monda
trains will begin running across tn
Dead Sable. The office in the ne
building is not yet done, but will b
completed after it is occupied. Th
building is 22xG0 feet in size, with tn
different parts as follows: Waitin
room, 1922; Office, 1Ox22; freigh

stated this building is intended to b
used as a depot building until mex
summer only, after which time it wi
be used to store freight which has to b

A passenger who came up on the
stage last week, reports the time made
by the mail stage on the up trip as
follows: Left Oscoda at 1880 in the
morning, stopped about fifteen or
twenty minutes at Greenbush and at
Harrisville; took dinner at Altoona,
and remained there about one hour !;
made short stop at Ossineke, and
arrived at Alpena little before three
o'clock in the afternoon. Including
stops, they were nearly seven hours
and a half in making the journey of
over fifty miles, which we consider
to be good time. Deducting the time
occupied by stops, the stage could not
have been over six hours in making
the Journey, which would be about
nine miles per hour.
