THE TAX TITLE MAN.
Don't Let Him Get Hold of Your
Property.

1t is not generally understood
except by the so-called tax title
sharks-just how, and the length of
time after purchase, a tax title be-
comes valid lien or title against
the property that may be sold for
delinquent taxes. The time for re-
demption is one year, during which
time the owner Of property may re-
deem by paying the tax title holder
100 per cent on or over the amount
that was paid for said tax title GER
tificate. After the sale the owner
has one year in which to redeem bis
property. If be does not redeem 1t
in one year, then the purchaser gets
o title from the state, which is good
against any other title for whatever
the deed calls for, provided always
the proceedings in the case have
been regular, The owner must
then make the best terms he can
with the tax title holder il he wishes
to get back his property.

funeral of deceased was held Tues

Mr.. and Mrs. Harry Parsons ar
rived in Sault Ste. Marie Tuesday,
says the Journal, and are ,domiciled
at the Hanna cottage at Little
Rapids. Mrs. Parsons~was formerly
Miss Mabel Hanna. The happy pair
were married last week and will
spend the best part Of the summer
in the vicinity of the 500. Quite a
pleasant romance is to be found in
the union of these two. The groom
was a struggling artist and fell in
love with Miss Hanna. Forgetting
her station as rich girl, he laid
siege to her heart as if he were a
millionaire and an old acquaintance.
She returned his affections with her
own and seeing no other way out OF
it Mark Hanna bestowed his consent
to the engagement. Mr.. Parsons is
now actively connected with Mark
Hanna's many business enterprises.
Among the many wedding gifts that
fell to the lot OF the newly married
couple was bit of paper that is
perhaps priced above any of the
other gifts. 1t was a check for
$50, 900 from Mark.

new SHINGLE MILL,
Worcester Company, of Munising,
To Erect One in
L'Anse.
SUCH IS THE REPORT.
Plant Will Be AS Large AS Any
In This Section,
IT'S Said.

The following interesting bit o'
news is taken from the Marquette
Daily Mining Journal OF Thursday.
At this writing we are unable tc
youch for it's authenticity or to
ascertain anything further regard
ing the enterprise:
"The Worcester company, ol
Munising, will soon begin the
erection of shingle mill at L LAnse.
The plant will be about as large as
any shingle mill in this section and
it is said that there is sufficient
timber in the vicinity to keep it In
operation for some years. Cedar
will be the principal timber used,
though some pine will also be
sawed. There are a number oi
small tracts Of cedar near L'Anse
owned by farmers and others. The
erection of the plant will be-a good
thing for the timber owners as they
will get very fair price, owing to
the high price of shingles at this
time.

OPERATE MILL FOR
SEVERAL YEARS.
Hebard & Son viii Haul Logs
From Long Distances to Stock
the Pequaming Mill.

Chas. Hebard & Son are prepar-
ing to conduct operations at their
plant at Pequaming for several
years more, and a full stock Of logs
will be put in next winter. The
company has cut nearly all Of the
timber on its lands and is now buy
ing and towing logs from distances
ranging from 40 to 200 miles. The
mill was built at Pequaming in 1878,
and during the "a years it has been
operated, over 100000 900 feet of
timber have been cut.
Fred Hebard was seen recently in
regard to future operations and,
according to the Houghton Gazette,
gave the following information:
''The company will continue to
operate it's mill for several years.
Just how many am unable to state.
We will haul logs for many miles to
the mill, and expect next year to
bring them as far as 200 miles. The
tugs Jay G. Morse, Attention and
Daniel Hebard are kept in continual
use in this work"
The company disposes of most OF
its good lumber to eastern parties
and some of the box lumber and the
lower grades are shipped to Chica-
go. The plant lis one of the best in
the upper peninsula.
Vt was the desire of the late
Charles Hebard to see Pequaming a
sumper resort. He intended and
planned that the entire Pequaming
peninsula should be used for that
purpose some day. With that in
view he refused to ALLOW his men to
cut down some of the larger trees
and they are standing today.

The Ice Box and Germs.

A responsibility that you may not
look upon is the care of your ice box
during the next several months. AS
breeder OF disease germs badly
kept refrigerator can discount a
specialist, who cultivates one set OF
microbes to make war upon another.
A thorough cleansing and purifying
once in week is imperative; twice
is better. Wash with strong soda
and water; rinse with water in
which you put little vinegar. See
that the drain pipes are quite sweet,
and finish with soft, dry cloth.
Look over the food chamber every
day, removing every tainted scrap.
Remember that it is more economi-
cal to provide quantity sufficient OF
ice; generous supply costs less in
the end, and meat, butter, milk,
fruits are all better for an even
temperature.

Several citizens also donated the
