and enjoyable affairs of the holidays.
There are forty feet of ice on the

roadsides. The wind is at work making
and shifting its depth.

the great bargain offered by Will Smith,
who we understand is Offering good dry
lumber for 81. pei M.
The Christmas holidays were unusual
ly hospItable. Many calls were made
for the first time. The social spirit of
1884 argues well for the freedom. good
sense and refined taste of Cheboygan.
Mr.. Hyman has several strong, SER
viceable and sound horses in the Cass
stable for sale. Our Lumbermen will
consult their interests to call on him.
The horses show up as of the first order.
Any one in need of stationery, such as
billheads, letterheads, envelopes, &c.,will
do well to consult the TRIBUNE job office,
its established reputation for neat work
at reasonable prices insures satisfaction.
The Week Of Prayer will be observed
by the members of the M. z. Church,
Cheboygan. Meetings every night next
week, beginning Monday, Jan. 7th., at
7:30 Pm. Riv. L. N. Davis. Presiding
Elder, will assist in the meetings.
The stir the late snow storm has given
the logging interests is everywhere ap-
parent. Calls for more men are heard.
The wages too will rate higher. 1t is
the clearing awayof the mist from our
money world. 1t is the meeting of
square dealing of labor and capital.
Miss Nellie Melville, with her friend,
Miss Edith Ramsay, was among the hon.
ored reception places on New Years. 1t
was one of the few places where the
Misses done the hOnOrs. All who went
there were delighted. A gracious well
come opened its pleasures for the callers
and Miss Nellie. and her friend, Miss
Edith, will be pleasant remembrances
uutil another New Year comes. May
they have many as pleasant New Years.
The most notable feature of our New
/ Years calls was the absence of wine at
the receptions. Mrs. Waterman, BOggs,
Chandler. Adams, and Miss Nellie Mel
vile received their friends; there were
the choicest viands and coffee, bnt no
wine. The ladies can do more to stop
drinking than all else, but it is in their
place as presiding in those ceremonies
of social life, where man is brought to
recognize the charms Of refined and
elegant behavior.
Among the new residences finished
this fall, Is that of our friend Charles
Mute, on Bailey and Locust streets. In
style, it is of the cottage order, but ar
ranged with the purpose of comfort and
elegance. The front door is through Q
turret, running up sentinel like, thu
windows on level Ofthose of the second
floor, enclosed in panels. The frs
floor contains a large sitting room, open
ing by folding doors into the dining
room, which connects with the kitchen
The parOr on the east side, and entered
from the main hall. is of two larg
rooms, accessible through double doors
There is also sleeping room. Tn
second story has six sleeping rooms
opening from two halls. The heating o
the whole house is through four chin
neys. The turret fronts the house, an
with its relieving colors, adds to its fin
ish. The design is excellent. The hous
is lighted by two-sash windows, well Sc
in their frames, which are plain, but II
good taste. 1t has fine bay window
Mr.. Nuite's residence is another addition
to the growing desire Of our thrivin
citizens, in surrounding themselves wit
houses Of comfort and elegance.
