M. G. A, will depart on Thursday for
his home in Hamilton, Ontario and

Robt. Treu, a carpenter residing at
624 Lincoln Ave, was robbed of a
pocket book containing $50 while at
tending the Saengerfest picnic on Sun
day. Several suspicious looking char
acters were seen on the grounds that
day and shortly after Mr.. Treu was
robbed one of these was arrested. He
was well dressed young fellow, with
$50 in his pockets and was stopping at
the Bells hotel. He was kept in jail
until Monday morning, but as no in
eliminating evidence could be secured
against him he was liberated and ad-
vised to get out of town. Mr.. Treu's
loss is the only one that has been re-
ported to the police thus far
RObt. n. Larner, who has been MAX
ing an estimate of the stocks of lumber
in the different yards in the county for
assessment purposes, finds that the
total of all grades that were in pile May
1st was 100, 100000 feet, in round num-
bers. This amount is about 10 ,000, 900
feet less than year ago. The different
woods are divided as follows: Hem
lock, $1,000, 900; pine, 10000, 900; hard
wooc, $4,000, 900; Eastwood, 1850, OOO
The loss over a year ago is probably due
to the fact that the winter of 1904 was
one of the best ever experienced for
successful logging, while last winter
was unfavorable and the cut was not so
large. Or it might be due to the fact
that the forests are growing less each
year.
