one was, on Chisholm street, near
State street. The skating floor is 100
x5S feet, and is free from pillars or
any other obstruction. The roof is
supported by nine circular trusses.
These trusses appear powerful enough
to do the work required of them, and
plenty of strength to spare. They
are strongly braced by iron rods, so as
to prevent any danger of their spread
ing. Around the entire skating floor
is walk, and on the two sides and
one end are stationary seats for spec
tators. A railing separates the skat-
ing floor from the seats. At one end
a number Of hooks have been placed
where patrons of the rink can hang
their coats, cloaks, etc, and under
them are racks for overshoes. AT
each end is a gallery fitted with seats.
The building will seat about 500 PEG.
pie, and the view of the skaters is un-
INSTRUCTED. The ceiling is lofty. The
skating floor is of hard maple, and
is first class. Waiting rooms have
not yet been provided, but will be
fitted up some time in the future, In
the center of the rink there is sus-
pended an electric lamp, which is ar
ranged so that it can be lowered in
order to have new carbons put ill.,.
The rink is fine one, well adapted
for the purpose it was intended for !;
roomy, and will prove a great benefit
to the citizens, who need and require
exercise, and whose daily work re-
quircs them to be indoors all day.
Two large stoves are used to warm
the rink.

First PRESBYTERIAN Social.

The first social given by the United
Presbyterian society, took place at the
Armory last Wednesday night, and
proved success, both socially and
financially. A number of tables were
spread in the hall and bounteous
supper with oysters was served to such
as desired it. Music was furnished
by Fournier's band. A toilet set and
a velvet banner were voted for. Miss
Maggie Seaman was awarded the toilet
set and Miss Annie Campbell was the
successful candidate for the banner.
The receipts amounted to about 5000

Vessel Clearances.

The custom house records at this
port do not show all the vessels and

records show that during the present
season 403 vessels and barges and
122 steam barges and tugs cleared
from this port-including a few yes

When to Advertise.

The best business man in the city Of
Albany to-day said yesterday that lie spent
the most money for advertising when people
felt poorest. THAT is the time" he said,
when people read advertisements. If they
find store advertising bargains they will
leave their old places and go to the newer,
and the new one, if it is smart, will keep
them every time. The old-fashionod bust
ness man will feel that he must do things
in a modern style il he wants to swim
with the urrent."-Albany Journal

In looking over our marine records
we find that the steamer Music made
four round trips between Alpena and
Bay City last spring, having taken
the place of one of the regular mail
steamers. Her trips were not includ-
ed in the list we gave last week, and
the steamer Atlantic should also be
credited with ono more trip, making
33 round trips for her. This makes
the total number of round trips made
by passenger steam boats that ran on
the Detroit, Alpena and St. Ignace
line, and between Alpena and Bay
City, amount to 425.

sells that carried cedar and did not re-
port. If all the arrivals of vessels
and steamers could be ascertained, we
believe the number would amount to
considerably over 1000. Last year
the number of vessels that reported
was $50, being 105 greater than this
year.
