J. L. ROBBINS.
Lumber, EARN Machinery.
Real Estate and
Insurance..

This gentlemen is native of Connect
icut, who after reaching his majority re-
moved to Michigan and established the
commercial college known as Swensberg
& Robbins. Durlug the civil war he was
in the department of the Gulf as chief
clerk in the commissary corps. In 1869
he became a resident Of Sank Centre
and gave his attention to the sale of pi-
amos and organs. The business represent
ed above was inaugurated in 1880.
Mr.. Robbins carries all kinds and dim
ensions of lumber and building material
for the construction of the contract or
builder and handles doors, sashes. blinds
and full line of the St. Paul White Lead
Oil Cos paints.
In the farm machinery department are
found the Plano and Milwaukee harvest
ers and binders and all of the different
kinds of forming implements of the
standard makes. He handles the T. G.
Mandt wagon, making speciality ofthe
latest improved steel geared, which is
said to be the 1ightest and most sub
stantial wagon in nse up to the present
day.
In real estate he offers some OF the
most desirable lots for residence or bust
ness purposes in our city, and as his OPP
erations are mostly confined to property
owned by himself, or in which he islarge
ly interested, the commissions of the mid
dleman might be saved to the purchas-
er.
We had supposed that the interests al
ready spoken of would occupy the
whole of his energies, but we misjudged
our man; for in reply to our question as
to anything further, he said, II am
writing insurance in some of the best
companies and have few organs that l
would sell at low figures"
]. L. Robbins is a gentleman with
whom business relations could not fail
of being pleasant, and we know of no
man better qualified to conserve the best
interests of his patrons, enjoying, as he
does, the ability and integrity to prompt
ly execute any commissions entrusted to
him. e...s -a

BRUCE g. THOMSON.
Boots, Shoes and Groceries. Corner
Main and Fourth street.

A nicely arranged stock of merchandise
will attract the attention of the most in
different and as we were reviewing the
enterpising representatives of the mer-
camille trade, we perceived that Messrs.
Bruce & Thomson were men of that
type. They have nicely appointed
store 22x6O feet and find none too much
room to accommodate their stock of
boots and shoes, groceries, canned goods,
teas, coffees, spices, etc.
Their stock of boots and shoes for
ladies, gentlemen, misses and children,
and fine line of rubber goods, find a
ready demand throughout the city and
the quality of the goods gives unexcep.
tional satisfaction among their pat
rons.
They make a speciality of teas and
coffees and fancy groceries, and in these
days of extensive adulteration of TODD
articles it is very material point to
know these are pure.
The reputation OF this house tor honor
able business methods is a sufficient guar
antee of their goods and patrons may be
as sured that when trading here they
are getting the best articles in the mar
ket.
This firm is composed of S. M Bruce
and V. M. Thomson, both natives OF
the Hoosier state. Captain Bruce was
one of the first settlers of Sank Centre,
comiug here in 1857 and engaging irI
farming till the outbreak of the war, but
when the first assaults on the citadel of
our liberty was made by armed rebellion
he was among the first to plead the
cause of his country at the point of the
bayonet. He enlisted in 1861 as pri-
vate in Co. I Third Regiment Minnesota
Volunteer Infantry under Captain And
rews. Shortly after he was promoted
to sergeant, and in 1862 was appointed
lieutenant by special order of Gen. Pope,
and took hand during the Indian out
break. In the winter OF 1863 he was
commissioned by President Lincoln as
captain of the 10th U. S. Colored In
fantry and served as such up to Lee
surrender, when he was mustered out of
service and returned home to his farm.
In 1773 he established his present bust
ness in this city which has been Ia con

THE HERALD this week is devoted al
most exclusively to setting forth the
business interests and enterprises of
Sank Centre. The work has been we'll
done by Geo. w. McCagg, veteran
newspaper man, who understands the
business thoroughly. To him is due the
credit of SO faithfully rejecting the bust
ness interests of the city, and to him
alone. In fact, the HERALD practically
belongs to him this week. Our patrons
will overlook the shortcomings of this
paper in its usual local news features,
as it is no mean task for country pa
per to accomplish such an amount of
work within the brief time allotted to it.

MRS. STABLER.~
MillinerY-Next to Bank of Sank
Centre,

The eminent success which has attend
ed the establishment of Mrs. Stabler
since its inception is sufficient evidence
of this lady's adaptation for the business.
This enterprise, which is one of the most
prominent of its kind IN Sank Centre, is
devoted to the manufacture and sale of
dies hats, ribbons, feathers, tips,
ushes, etc.
We noticed in her shop a fine display
of trimmed hats, the artistic work OF
which explains the popularity of Mrs.
Stabler among the ladies of our city and
surrounding country. Mrs. Stabler en-
Ployes none but the most capable assist
ants and gives her personal attention to
all the details of artistic and order work.

Rev. Or. DOnnelly, OF the East-street

upon the same topic. He thought that
the great moral battle OF today was
upon the question OF INSPIRATION. Rev.

believe that every word OF the Bible

ever might be true of a book here or
there, the tenure of the whole was true
and the false texts did not change il.
Rev. DR.. Haskell, of Ann Arbor, stated
that there was abundant proof of
Cnrist's words wherever they were
quoted IN the Scriptures. Rev. j. \.
Johnson, of Kalamazoo, found little
trouble as regards inspiration.
In the afternoon there was a general
discussion of revival methods, led by
Mr.. Carman. The sentiment favored
the work of evangelists. DR.. Hendcr-

Present Aspect of Papacy." Or. Hen
