While Mr. HOlcomb was loading his
dgSy near the depot Monday his horses
which have already on numerous oc-
casionS proven their ability in running,
were startled by the lumber which
he was handling, and began to run.
They ran to his house, doing no very
great damage, but breaking down a
hitching post near there.

"The two ends of the ST. Clair tunnel
However strange and paradoXical' it
may seem 1t is nevertheless true that
the editor of that estimable paper has
outwitted the witty Chauvenet and a
straight line is not "the shortest dis
tance between two points, but is some
thing like a circle in which the two
ends may meet" We have no doubt
that Chief Engineer HobsOn would be
very much shocked to find his tunnel
taking on such shape as our worthy
contemporary would cause oneto infer.
y wrong impression might have
been received from what was printed
in the last issue of the EXPOsITOR con-
cerning the Shehee VS.. Maher combat.
What we desire heartily, is that this
county may be cleared in some manner
of the rowdyism which has run ram
part for time past. If Maher was not
drunk also we sympathiZe with him,
and only hope that every tough may
meet with such warm reception as
Shehee did. Some way must be put to
the lawlessneSs that is running riot in
that vicinity. We call your attention

Co. would respectfully call attention to
its Railroad line which now extends
from Detroit, Toledo and Port Huron
across the state of Michigan to Luding-

of the travelling public at least a trial.

AS was anticipated from the reputa-
tion which had preceded Frank Tuck
erS Metropolitan Company, those who
attended last Saturday and Monday
evenings were treated to two very pretty
entertainments. 1t is so early in the
season that the attendance was neces-
sarily small. If the company comes
here again we think they will meet
with a hearty reception As play
Miss Mutton, as interpreted by Miss
Nellie Thompson is the better. But
Frank Tucker as Josh Whitcombe was
a success. 1t is the style of play that
takes with every one. 1t is realistic. 1t
is true to life. But such character
needs study to appreciate it.
Last Friday morning about o'clock
our townspeople were suddenly awak-
ened by the startling cry of fire: and
soon after the NJ. f. church bell began
TO ring. The fire proved to be located
in little shanty on Main street be-
tween DIR. Clyne's Office and Cooper's
store. Its close proximity to a row of
frame buildings filled with valuable
stock added greatly to the alarm that
would otherwise have been naturally
felt. Ready hands, however, had soon
extinguished the flame. The fire was
undoubtedly result of incendiarism.
That any one should be so mean as to
endanger the welfare of the whole COM
munity is beyond our conception.
There are continually reports of towns
of this size being totally wiped out by
conilagration just so foolishly started.
No doubt some one thought that the
town would be better off without this
delapidated shanty on its main street.
