Post Office Boxes.

Since the free delivery was commenced
here last January, a large number of per.
sons gave up their post Office boxes and
had their mail delivered at their offices OIL
residences. Thus section after section OF
the boxes was removed, until at date there
are only 205 lock boxes, and 200 call
boxes. Some Of the persons who gave
up their boxes, have returned to the old
system, finding it more convenient to have
their mail put in boxes, instead OF being
delivered by carrier. They can get their
letters sooner from the boxes than they
can from the carriers. The boxes are the
best for those whose business is near the
postoflicc.

Announcement-Architect's Office

wish to announce to the people OF
Alpena and vicinity, that owing to the
increasing trade and patronage OF my
sash and door factory business, together
with that Of building and contracting, to
which | am paying special attention,
have concluded to establish an archi-
tect's Office in connection with my bust
nsss, and will have first class archi-
tect and draughtsman here on or about
April list, to take charge of this depart
ment. He comes high, but Alpena has
arrived at that stage Of progression that
it can afford to support first class me-
chanic I'm this important branch. In fact
first class architect and draughtsman
,'ss been "long felt want" in Alpena
Il smany years, and with the encourage
ment have already received, and the
continued support Of my patrons, have
now decided to supply the want.

lowing in regard to this city
"Alpena is getting to be quite manu-
