The Flera seems to have gone back on
ChebOygan. She has not been up for
three weeks.
The freeze up improved the streets in
the village, but the farmers complain of
bad roads in the country.
The repairs on the bell tower being
completed the town bell again rings the
hours Of seven, twelve, one and six.

cheap this winter. This will be little
hard on farmers, but blessing to the
poor.

The taking off the night Tranquil the
Chicago mail for Cheboygan about "a
hours behind time, but orders have been
issued to have it come via the G. R. & /.
railroad to Mackinac City so that here
after Chicago papers will arrive nearly
as soon as before the night train was
taken off.
We understand that petition will be
presented to the council at its next
meeting asking that action be taken to
secure CITY charter for ChebOygan.
We believe such to be the desire of a
large majority of the property holders
of the village and furthermore that it
would tend to promote the interests Of
Chebeygan.
A piece Of sharp practice was devel-
oDed this week on the part of an inno-
cent granger of this county. The afOrs-
said granger was indebted to Reighbor
five or six dollars, but did not seem in
clined to pay. 70 get even the neighbor
purchased calf of his debtor, thinking
to get what was owing him in that way.
No settlement was had, and the matter
ran along until the debt of the innocent
granger had become outlawed, and then
he demanded pay for the calf, and put
his claim in the HANDS of an attorney to
collect.
The society g0ssips of the east are at
present much excited over the rumOr
that young lady, Miss Folsom, of Buf-
falo, is engaged to the coming President.
Grover Cleveland, who was her fathers
former partner in business. The young
lady is quite a favorite in Buffalo social
circles, and is said to be most agreea-
bic as we'll as very intelligent and
well informed person. Rumor also has
it that the wedding will occur before
Mr.. Cleveland is inaugurated, his sue
cess in the recent political contest has
tening that auspicious event.
Louis Demera, better known in this
community as "Tammerack," arrived
from down the railroad Saturday night
with bad cash in the back of his head.
Louis was continuing the same old drunk
he started on some Is or 16 years ago,
and undertook to help celebrate the elec-
tion of Cleveland, got into squabble,
and the cut was the result. Louis says
all he knows about it was that when he
was struck it became night very sudden
ly. DR.. T. A. Perrin dressed the wound,
and If bad whisky does not kill him the
chances are Louis will continue that
drunk indefinitely.
Miss Mamie Kirkland left on the City
of Maekinae Tuesday to spend the win
ter with an uncle in Holyoke, Mass, and
enjoy the instruction of proficient pro-
fessor of vocal music. Miss Kirkland
possesses voice of much sweetness,
which already evinces careful training
and culture, and, with her love for the
art, winters training cannot fail to be
highly beneficial. For the past season
Miss Kirkland has been singing soprano
in the Congregational church choir,
