Gum Gatherers in the Adirondacks.

Picking spruce gum and selling it
to chewing gum manufacturers is a
source of income for a great many men
in the Adirondack and other northern
forests-guides and small farmers
while others make it business the
year through. The gum appears on
the tree trunks like drops of wax.
The gatherer, armed with long
pole, on the end of which are fastened
a can and sharp chisel, cuts loose
the chunks of gum. which fall into the
can and are transferred to basket
or bag. The gatherers will travel on
snowshoes ten or fifteen miles through
the forest, sleeping at night in some
old hunters deserted shack. There
are three kinds of spruce in the Adj.
rondacks-red, black and white. The
best gum is gathered from the sap.

grade, composed of blister scrapings
mixed with particles of bark. Placed
on trays of cotton cloth in steam

yields the producer fifty cents 6

ing its appearance This week. Huels-

several pumps that furnish water to

None of the bridges over Flat river
were disturbed, but all the bridges and
culverts over creeks and runs in this

either carried out or rendered useless,
causing great impediment to travel.

Our city was pretty nearly cut of
from railroad and consequently mail
communication with the outside world
Friday. The Pere Marquette had
not less than a dozen washouts on
their line between Lowell and this
point, some of them pretty good sized
ones too. The longest one was the
other side of the Smyrna depot. but
the deepest ones were on the Smyrna
grade short distance this side of the
depot. 1t was predicted they would
not be able to run train over that
road for a week, but railroad com.
panies handle such matters with
astonishing quickness nowadays,
and they piled up ties under the track
and blocked it up, so that trains have
been running regularly since Satur'
day evening.
| A break between here and Orleans
shut off trains to Ionia and all trains
had to run via Edmore to Ionia ano
Grand Ledge Friday. On Saturday
morning this line was open again.
The storm extended over quite a
scope of territory. Not SO much
damage was done to the north and
east of US, but south and west of u:

bad as it was here. Saranac was hare
hit, much damage being done. AZ

WANTED A CHANGE.
Two New Members For Board of
Education.

There is a great fluctuation in the
attendance at the annual school meet
ing of this city. Some years there is
a very small turnout and seemingly
but little interest in any of the pro-
ceedings, but this year was one of the
times when the contrary extreme was
true. Fortunate it was the heated
term of last week had given place to a
cooler atmosphere or it would have
been very uncomfortable with the
crowded condition of the high school
building Monday evening. There
had been considerable wire pulling
and electioneering going on and both
sides had their forces out. The
American people are great you know
for wanting a change, they like to
try new men, and so it was on this oc-
casion that the old members were
turned down with a dull thud in their
candidacy for reelection. f. X.
Spencer was chosen to succeed w. d.
Ballou and II. j. Connell to succeed |.
5. Morris, there being about POO votes
cast on each ballot.
While the tellers were counting the
ballots L. b. Lapham proposed that
that would be good time to discuss
a proposition to put in sewer from
the high school building to the river,
but the crowd refused to take him
seriously. They made joke of it and
insisted the Judge" wanted it only
to secure drainage for his row of ten
ant houses. They got him confused
on the points of the compass until he
didn't know himself which direction
he wanted to run 1t.
The financial report showed up we'll,
the expenses having been less the past
year than several previous years.
There is also larger cash balance on
hand than ever before. The board
recommended the raising of the same
amount by direct tax as last year
$500, and the same was adopted.
The directors financial statement
condensed Is as follows:

church. Deprive a man of what he feels
