all serious, There is no clue to the
identity of her brute assailant, whom
she describes as being about "a or 25
years of age, black mustache, soft
black hat and grav overcoat He was
about five feet eight inches in height.
Yesterday afternoon Miss Thorsen,
who had been employed by Mr..
Stewart only a week, went to visit Mrs.

Thirteenth. She left Mrs. Peterson's
about 1870 and took a Twelfth street

WHOLE NUMBER 1893
The Wolverine Bicycle Club.

This is new organization consisting
OF gentlemen of this village and vicinity
who take pleasure in riding the 'silent
steed." One of the principal purposes Of
the club is to use its influence and to
assist as it may in securing better high
ways, and in this matter its members
are no more unselfish than in their
ordinary business transactions, for
good roads are Indispensable to the
wheelmen. No other organization has
done more i'm this direction, during the
past few years, than the League of
American Wheelmen, which is
national institution comprising many
thousand members, and the" Wolverine"
will not be behind their brother wheel
men in this matter.
But as 'cyling requires good roads, so
cyclists have certain rights on the roads
which should be cheerfully conceded to
them. The courts have recognized the
fact that a bicycle is vehicle for travel
as much as carriage drawn by horse
and that the one is, by the claw of the
road" entitled to the same privileges as
the other, no more and no less. This
being the case, wheelmen object to be-
ing compelled to give the whole road
when there is no occasion for it. They
do not think they should be obliged to
run outside into the sand or to dis
mount, as long as there is ample room
to pass without inconvenience to either
party, and they do not believe that any
fair minded man-any gentleman-will
force them to do so. The members of
the Wolverine Club all claim to be
gentlemen and they only ask gentle
manly treatment; they will, in all cases,
be cautious about frightening horses
unused to the sight of wheels; they will
willingly give the entire road to heavily
loaded teams; they will specially avoid
giving any trouble to lady drivers; in
short, they will try at all times to con-
duct themselves like the gentlemen
they claim to be, and ask nothing but
that which they have an undoubted
right to demand.

Boys Attention /!

The season for sling shots having
arrived every feathered songster that
skins the air or twitters in the hedge
tempts the small boy to exhibit the
dexterity with which he can hurl the
death-dealing stone; therefore we would
call their attention to Section 10 of the
general game laws which reads as
follows;-
SEC. 10. Any person who shall
at any time, within this State, kill
any robin, nighthawk, whippoorwill,
finch, thrush, lark, swallow, yellow
bird, blue bird, brown thrasher,, wren,
martin, oriole, woodpecker, bobolink
or any song bird, or rob the nests of
such birds shall be deemed:guilty of a
misdemeanor. and on conviction there
of shall be fined five dollars for each
bird so killed, and for each nest so
robbed, or confined in the county Jail
for ten days, or both such fine and i'm
prisonment, in the discretion of the
court.
Take care boys, lest in your thought
less cruelty to the pretty birds you get
yourselves into serious trouble.

On last Wednesday morning DR..
Harrison was driving a team down
main street, when one of the span, a
young horse, made sudden spring that
snapped a line, being almost Immediate
ly followed by the dropping of the
wagon-tongue. The wagon was over
turned just opposite the county build
ings, and the doctor precipitated to the
ground in such manner rs to cause
many bruises and general shaking up,
though fortunately nothing more SER
iOus. The horses were caught unharm-
ed, but the wagon was quite thoroughly
demolished.
1t would seem as if almost any resi-
dent of our town would take sufficient
pride in our beautiful schOol-house and
grounds to wish them well-kept; yet,
since the approach of warmer weather,
on every Monday morning the flight of
stone steps in front are tobacco stained
and covered with remnants of cigar
cites, peanuts, and other debris to such
degree as would indicate an utter dis
regard of appearances. On no other
morning in the week, is the school so
liable to visitation by people from other
sections, and such a condition of affairs
is not calculated to exalt their opinion
of Paw Paw enterprise.
