The house on the farm belonging to
Mrs. Clara Rennie near Decatur burned
to the ground the first OF the week. Mr..
Stewart, who lived in the house, lost
most OF his goods. The house and con-
tents were insured.
The safe in A. o. Duncombes store at
Keeler was blown open Wednesday night
and relieved of between $50 and so.
The burglars then stole a horse and
buggy and disappeared. Sheriff Brltton
and Under Sheriff Chappell left yester-
day morning to search for the offenders.
The safe in the same store was blown
open some time ago by two desperate
burglars, who after an exciting chase
were captured by Sheriff Britton, then
under-sheriff, and other deputies and
are now doing time.
The Knights of Pythias held their
first meeting in their new hall last Mon
day evening, AID have the finest secret
society quarters in the county, and prob
ably as fine as can be found in small
town in the state Of Michigan. A broad
stairway leads up from the street, at the
head OF which is hallway, out of which
open the social rooms, the ante room to
the hall, and the gentlemen's closet and
lavatory. The first social room is about
20 feet square, with large windows look
ing out onto Main street. Adjoining
this and connected with large sliding
doors is the second social room, about
lSx40, with a similar outlook on the
street, and fine mantel and CRATE on
one side. This room will also be used
as dining room. Out of this opens
the property room. The ante room,
opening from the hallway, is about Sxl6,
and opening out of this at one side is a
neat little ladies' cloak room, with the
ladies' closet and lavatory adjoining.
The lodge room proper is a fine, roomy
hall, 3Ix45 in size, with perfect dane
ing floor and steel ceiling. The rooms
are all fitted with plenty of electri: light
fixtures, aud the wiring is said to be one
of the most complete pieces of work in
town. There are 81 lights in the lodge
room alone. The quarters are all hot
water heated, and complete in every de-
tail. In the third story is room for
kitchen. A piano has been purchased,
and when the rooms are completely
furnished they will be fine indeed. This
growing lodge now has 100 members,
and the new hall will doubtless make
their growth in the future even more
rapid than it has been in the past.

Whole Number 1861.
President Titus Removes An Omcial from
ONCE.

The council held an interesting session
Monday evening, the full board being
present.
The electric light matter was up first.
r.. ID. Bierce submitted a bid of 81 400
for putting in the woodwork of a new
dam, the village to do the filling, or
$1,000 for the work complete. George
Bruner wants $500 for cement dam.
No action was taken on either PROPOSE
ton.
By unanimous vote, the council decid-
ed to rent or buy an engine for tempor-
airy use, at least, to be installed at the
water plant where the boilers already in
could be utilized, and appointed Trustee
Snow and Dana Smith committee to
procure an engine, but neglected to
make any appropriation for their ex-
pense money on trip to the city.
The committee on salaries recommend
ed the following salary list, which was
adopted, and is the same as last year:
Marshal, 500; treasurer, $50; clerk,
S75; secretary of electric light plant,
$50: secretary of water works, S75: sec
retary of sewer system, so; superintend-
ent of water works, 5000; electrician,
5000; assistant elec trcian, S420; night
police, Sl04; attorneys retainer, S25;
health officer, $40; engineer of fire de-
partment, $50; fire warden, $40.
Applications for appointments as mar
shal and street commissioner respect
lively were received from j. +. Bullard
and Aaron Hathaway, agreeing to do
the work of the positions for $3.50 each
Just the amount fixed by the council as
salary for the work.
President Titus then nominated Mr..
Bullard for marshal, which was not oon-
firmed, Mr.. Anderson refusing to vote,
Mr. Whitman voting "yes," Messrs.
Avery, Shepard, Killefer and Snow vot-
ing mo"
Mr.. Hathaway was then named for
street commissioner, and this appoint
ment was rejected by exactly the same
vote.
President Titus then called Marshal
Willis Clapp before the council and read
him a notice of removal from office, and
the council adjourned, leaving the village
without marshal or street commits
sioner.
In commenting on this action, the
Courier says Mr.. Clapps only crime is
that he votes the democratic ticket. On
the other hand, it may as truly be said
that the only crime of Messrs. Bullard
and Hathaway is that they have consist
emily voted the republican tcket-but
there seems to be difference in Grimes"
Mr.. Bullard has been marshal of this
village, and he was good one, and no
one doubts Mr.. Hathaways ability to
perform we'll the duties of street COM
missioner. 1t seems to The True North
erner that these appointments should
have been confirmed, especially as the
propositions submitted insured the viii
lage against any greater expense because
of the division of the work.
Meanwhile, the council room is be-
coming quite forum of practical poll
tics, and the next move is awaited with
interest.
