Yesterday Peter Roman who lives at
the stock yards, came into the sheriff's Of
flee and said he wanted protection. Ac-
cording to his story he and his wife came
here from Fest st. Louis and established
boarding house just north of Whitaker's
packing house. He worked in the pack
ing house and the wife ran the boarding
house. All went very well until about
Christmas when some of the boarderS
would come in drunk and he put them
out His wife took sides with the boarders
and since that time they have been making
it hot for him. He has received several
white cap letters and to cap the climax his
wife sent him word that she would adj
vance him money to go home to East st.
Louis again.
He was very much excited yesterday
evening and thought there was a deliber-
ate plan on the part of his wife and her
confederates to kill him. He was afraid
to 20 home even after his clothes and
begged the sheriff to take him in charge
until he could make his arrangements to
leave the city satisfactory.

and AuSable. The freight and trade of
this county, which surely has great pros
poets, will be- taken away, and with the
lumber gone Alpena can but hope 10
thrive by reason OF Its granger backing.
But should Alpena or other capital pro-
iect line across, possibly TO Gaylord,
the lake city would remain the business
center of this portion OF the State. Fur
thermore, the hardwood lumber, inestim-
able In amount, would then come into
market, assuring an immense volume OF
new business In coming years.
OF Hillman he has the following TO
say:
Hlllman Ia the county seat. II 10 a
queer little town, quiet and peaceable.
The houses are all made OF the toughest
lumber, as II 10 a rule among the people
who have anything TO sell to keep the
poorest for their own use. The town
contains exactly As families, but has about
ESQ children-two school houses full
Many OF the families have no children, but
their neighbors keep the average up
Hillman Is only about half dozen years
old, and promises TO be busy little city
some day. IL IL located In a hollow, and
a stranger never knows he's in town until
he energies from the bushes and the daz-
cling glory OF the one street dawns upon
him. The church begins one end OF the

half the inhabitants work STEADY" and
the rest "off and on'-mostly off, The
men collect in the stores at night and tell
stories. The town wants grist mill very
badly-probably 1000 worth, either In
stock or bonus. Now they have to go 80
miles to get their milling done, at an ex-
ira expense OF fl per barrel. There Is not
a -four mill In the county, and the man
who locates at Hillman can have 100 times
as much water power az he needs and In
q year will have to ait up nights to keep
up with his work. He would have mo-
nopoly OF the business In natural wheat
country, within radius Of 20 miles. The
town also needs bank-a saving bank.

Worth Striving For.

Mr.. Lowrie, the Detroit Evening

the country back of this county, had
an article devoted to Hillman. OF
his travel from Potts to Hillman, he
says "The road is through immense
tracts of the finest hardwood timber
that ever grew, which will soon net
Michigan more millions than her pine
has DONE" He then continues:
The garden spot Of this vacant wilder
ness will be MoDtmorency county, and its
metropolis Potts, Hillman or Atlanta.

that Alpena can have Is the

Have You a Good Title7

From builder and Realty.
The carelessness existing in the transfer
of real estate is alarming. In fact, to such
an extent, that question il most persons
owning real estate, know whether they have
a clear and absolute title to the same. They
will tell you they have warranty deed
from Mr.. so and so, and he is good, there
fore, title is all right Ii may be all right,
and it may not. Warranty deed nor any
other will make the title perfect and abso-
lutte, unless all prior transfers have been
regularly made, and acknowledgements
properly done. deeds Of trust, mortgages,
Judgments, tax sales, aud all other claims
satisfied, and proper records made of the
same. An oversight or an error in this re-
port, will place cloud upon the title, and
may be fatal, or at least result in litigation
and much expense, attended with doubt and
unnecessary perplexity. But all such an
noyances can easily be avoided by the own
er Of property securing the necessary abb
stract of title to same, and passing il with
the deed at the time Of the transfer. Then
every owner Of property has the evidence
of title in his possession, and knows the
fact that he has title absolute. Otherwise
he does not know of a certainty, unless he
has obtained il direct from the government
and there have been mistakes made by the
government. Every owner of real estate
should procure an abstract Of title, and in
case Of sale pass it to the grantee then in
all subsequent sales the abstract can be con-
tinued with but trihing expense. ] advise
all purchasers to require the seller to fur
nish the abstract, as it is but just and prop
er that that the grantor should furnish the
grantee the evidence Of his right to convey
the property. In my experience Of more
than twenty years in the sale and transfer
Of real estate, have found that the clear
and perfect titles were the exception
When buy, ] require perfect title; when
sell furnish the purchaser perfect title
or no sale. Reader, do you know that you
have an absolute title? II not, see to it f;
the satisfaction Of knowing it will more than
repay the expense.

The Triumph of Steel in Harvester

was introduced, II was denounced by all
harvester manufacturers, except the man
ufacturers introducing it-Wm. Deerlng
Il Co.-because, as they said, II was not
as durable as the wooden machines, but
In reality their denunciations was caused
by the fact that they feared that 1t would
overturn their old methods of manufact-
ure and give the farmers machines so dor.
able In structure as TO prevent their fire.

machine.

In giving the farmers the benefit of their
