j. W. Benedict. of Port Huron. ac-
cOmpained by sheriff Bernatz arrived
here by Tuesday evenings train and
proceeded TO ELeIntyre's store where
f. Ii. Drake,s Thos. Emery. Oscar
Boice and others were at work, tried
the door and on finding it locked burst
it open. took about S1lSworth of goods
which he claimed belonged to him.
Mr.. Benedict is in the wholesale grocery
business in Port Huron and one Of
the creditors. Looks rs though there
might be some trouble on account of
this boldness.
Although the spring is so backward,
Mrs. Law was certainly not so with her
millinery and fancy goods opening last
week. Everything dainty and airy,
that belongs to the spring and summer
months. were found on the counters.
in the show cases, suspended in the air,
hung in the windows. everywhere in
the store. which was filled with the
tasty feminine articles. besides all the
new and fashionable shapes in hats and
bonnets. We congratulate Mrs. Law
on the success she has certainly achiev-
ed, and can readily say that in this
onnping she has surpassed all her
former ones.
he attendance at the musical enter
ta!nment given by Prof. Booth last
Friday evening was small. but the
entertainment itself was fine and
something that would have been ap-
preciated by our citizens. \ large
audience should have greeted the Prof
and his aid. Miss Ida Young is fine
pianist, and Miss AIDA Kimball plays
the viclin well, while the Prof. HIM
self is grand musician. 1t seems to
us that if the people would turn out
better to those first-class entertain
ments, they would be benefited more
than by going to every ten cent show
that comes along.
We call the attention to the new
advertisement Of the Great Bee Hive
Bazaar. Port Huron, which appears i'm
this issue. The establishment has
become the most popular of its kind in
Eastern Michigan. The large variety
and excellent goods which are sold at
remarkable low prices, and the large
elegant store attracts the people from
all parts of the country and it is no
wonder that their trade is steadily in
creasing. The proprietors are heavy
advertisers. They do not hesitate to
let the people know all about themselves
and their business. They are live ener-
getic, pushing business men. 60 and
see them when you visit Port Huron.
