ties of the expensive magazine with the
bright, breezy characteristics of the news
paper, 1t leaves nothing to be desired by
the average reader. 1t Is looked upon as
a welcome visitor by every family who
reads it, while thousands regard it as in
dispensable and would on no account GO
without 1t. An enormous circulation OF
125, 900 copies per week attests its won-
derful popularity. Recognizing the fact
that there are those who are unfamiliar
with it's SURPRISING merits as home pa
per, the publishers offer to send the Free

the steamer Stewart arrived at her land
ing at this port, having on board over 100
citizens Of Au Sable, among whom were
about seventy members Of Court AuSable,
Independent Order Of Foresters. They
came here to visit their brethren Of this
city, and to enjoy pleasant trip. With
them was the Au Sable band.
At the wharf they were received by the
members OF Court Alpena. The ladies
were placed In carriages and taken to the
Golling House, whore dinner was served
them. The members Of the two Courts,
headed by the visiting band, paraded
along several Of the principal streets.
After dinner had been served to all the
members. various plans we're used to en-
terrain their guests by Court Alpena.-
Many Of them were driven about the city
Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1891-07-29

In carriages furnished by the Court here.
The day was very pleasant until evening,
when cool winds made the atmosphere too
chilly.
The visitors appeared to enjoy their
visit, and about six o'clock In the evening
embarked on the Stewart on their return
home. There was large crowd Of citi-
zens assembled on the wharf to see them
leave.
The steamer presented lively appear
ance as she steamed from the landing.
Her decks were packed with the exour-
sionists, and she looked alive with hui
manity. There must have been at least
200 persons on board, including the crew
and travelling men.

gallons Of water pumped by the Alpena
City Water Company for fire and domes-
tic purpose, during the past two months !;
May, 48,0s6,0s0 gallons; June, 49,479,-
$50 gallons. Total for the two months,
81, 565, GAO gallons. The average number
Of gallons pumped per day during the two
months mentioned was 1,599,441 which
indicates that large amount Of water Is
needed by the $4,000 inhabitants of this
city every twenty-four hours. During
the same two months the pump engines
made 4,s7s, 297 revolutions. The amount
pumped In June exceeds that OF any
month Of this year to date.

Democratic Candidates.

At the Democratic caucuses held last
Wednesday evening, the following can
didates were placed in nomination In the
several wards, and who will come before
the people on Friday for elections
First ward. Supervisor, August Mar
wede. Aldermen, Caspar Alpern and j.
E. Denton. Board of Education. w. L.
Churchill.
Second ward. Supervisor, Daniel lie
Blanc. Aldermen, Andrew Harshaw and
Henry Clothier. Board OF Education,
Joseph Page. Constable, Patrick Nc
Mullen.
Third ward. Supervisor, ]. L. Person.
Aldermen, j. b. Placie and Julius Szcz-
ukowski. Board Of Education, NJ. j.

Fourth ward. Supervisor, Edward

Bedford. Constable, Charles Dewar.
Sixth ward. Supervisor, Samuel Groh.
Aldermen, Max Englefield and Alexander
Daoust. Board of Education, John Null
lerweiss. Constable, John Hoben.
Taking the nominations as whole, 1t
is conceded that the Democrats have
placed excellent ward tickets In the field,
and there would seem to be no reason
why they should not receive the full par
ty vote, and in some instances the can
didates will doubtless make inroads on
their opponents.
A majority Of the above candidates
have served the people as officers In the
past, and have proved themselves the
right men in the right places, and We
trust that the Democrats will turn out
on Friday and give the whole ticket a
warm support. Let every Democrat do
his duty and there will be no doubt as to
the result.
This election was not brought on by
the Democratic party, and 1t should be
the duty Of all opposed to the needless
expense Of a special election to 90 to the
polls and show the perpetrators Of the
scheme that 1t does not meet with the
approval Of the people.

g. L. Maltz had a narrow escape from
being killed while driving home from Long
Lake last Sunday afternoon. One Of the
horses fell and the sudden jerk on the
lines caused Mr.. Maltz to fall out to the
ground. His fall frightened the horses
and they ran away, the carriage going
over Mr. Maltz. In the carriage were
Mrs Maltz, and her daughter, Mrs. AL
bert Pack, and two children. The horses
ran over two miles before they were stop
ped by Mrs. Pack. That lady, with won
'lerful presence OF mind and courage,
climbed over the front seat while the
horses were at full speed, reached over
the dashboard, got the lines, and then
pulled on them until the frightened team
were stopped. 1t was fortunate that there
was no team on the road In front at the
time, so the runaways had a clear track.
Mr.. Maltz was brought to town and plac-
ed under the care Of DR.. Maiden, and then
it was discovered that he had escaped
without fatal injuries. He was terribly
bruised on the head and body.

A small barn In rear of the Brebner feed
store, and close to the Masonic block,
was discovered to be on fire about ten
o'clock last Wednesday night. The fire
boys responded promptly to the call and
soon put out the flames. At that place
there are several wooden buildings, and
II the fire had not been discovered before
1t got much Roadway, 1t is likely to have
caused big blaze. The damage done
was not very extensive. The fire is sup
posed to be an incendiary one, or else
some one carelessly caused 1t by match
or cigar stump.

Part Of the Guards arrived from the
State encampment last Thursday, and al
most every steamer that arrived since
brought other members Of the company.
A number remained at Detroit to see the
races, and others took advantage Of being
in the southern part Of the State to visit
friends. The boys, as far as we have
learned, are well pleased with the encamp-
ment this year. The principal complaint
is in regard to mall facilities, which were
very deficient
