A large lynx was captured near
Sandy Hook the early part of this
week. The animal had got his foot
in small trap that had been arrang-
ed for his especial benefit. He soon
broke the trap from the chain and
then started off with the trap fast to
one of his feet. Herman and Carl
Kramer were not long in discovering
what had taken place and they start
ed in pursuit Of the lynx. After a
laborious travel through the deep
snow they came up to Mr.. Lynx and
a ball from Herman's Winchester
placed the lynx in n state whereby he
could do no further damage. The
lynx measured between three and four
feet in length.

The freight charges paid by a
prominent business firm of this city,
on goods brought from Bay City to
Black River. by railroad, was 66
cents per hundred. The firm does
not consider the charges as excessive
for the winter season. The same firm
used to pay $3.50 per hundred for
freight brought by sleigh from Stand
ish. Of the &c cents per hundred
freight charged, about 26 cents was
by the Michigan Central, thus max
ing the freight charges on the Alger
railroad from AIger to Black River
about forty cents per hundred. This,
we believe, includes transferring the
freight from the broad guage Mich.
gan Central to the narrow guage AL
ger railroad.
