Ii is wonderful how big circular
surrounded by forty or fifty men, can
fly to pieces and yet injurc no one.
Several have bursted at various times
in the lumber mills, but we can not
remember of any ono being injured
by the flying pieces of sharp steel
The latest one to burst was at the bay
shore mill of the Minor Lumber Co.,
the early part of last week. A boom
stick was being sawed which, unknown
to the mill men, contained two iron
spikes. The saw cut through the first
one, but when il struck the second, il
flew to pieces. One piece cut rafter,
another made large cash in a beam.
The men in the mill we're not long in
finding out that they had urgent bust.
ness outside the mill. We are glad
to record that no one was injured.
The damage was not repaired until
this week.

The Governors mission was to see
about getting the Detroit. Bay City
& Alpena railroad through the city,
and TO locate depot grounds. The
proposed plan along the bay shore
was examined, but was condemned
on account of the expense and risk
from water. The proposed site for
depot near the Fletcher House
would not answer, as the grounds
were not extensive enough.
The Governor and party had con-
sultation with Mayor Harshaw, w.
l.. Churchill, w. III. Potter, Geo. l..
Maltz, r. G. Faulconer and others,
and the result, as far as we are able
to ascertain, is that the railroad will
enter the city by way Of Tenth street,
then crosses the river at some conven-
lent point, and then 60 down Fletcher
street to the place where the Butter
field IL Cradle lumber mill stood, pro-
vided the right of way can be obtain
ed. If the depot is located at the
place indicated, it will be in n first
class location. 1t is centrally located,
will be close to the swing bridge
and will have good shipping facilities,
and can readily be reached by steam
boats. 1t will be able to reach the
river both above and below the dam,
and thus logs brought by railway
can be dumped into the river and
easily and chcaply RATED to the
various mills. The matter is not de-
finitely settled.
