Clergy Get Special RateA

Notwithstanding the reports that
have been in circulation concerning g
clergymen not being given special
rates, since the new interstate COM
merce law was passed, they will be
able TO travel for two cents per mile
in all sections Of the United States.
The Central Passenger association,
at recent meeting took the action.
At the passing OF the new rate
law 1t was announced that no spec
ial rates would be given. under any
circumstances, and this recent de
cision of the association will be well
coined by the clergy. Hitherto
they have been given a rate OF one
fare round trip. Now they will
pay two cents mile for travel in
any state governed by the Central
Passenger association. The clergy
bureau OF the association, is further
announced. will still be maintained.

FOR THE CHRIST
MAS TRADE
Merchants Are Making Extensive
Preparations For the Holiday
Trade.

L'Anse merchants are proverbial
for carrying large stocks OF holiday
goods, and judging from present APP
pearances the display this year will
maintain their reputation in this
direction ard new goods are being
daily received and prepared for dis
play at the proper time.
Most shoppers make the mistake
of waiting until two or three days
before Christmas for making their
selections. Within the next week
or ten days the various stocks will
be in position and it is then you
should make your purchases.
Every want from toy to house
hold furnishings can be found in
abundance, and it appears that the
merchants have especially exerted
themselves this year in procuring
only the best which the market
affords, and it is safe to predict that
with this choice selection of goods
to pick from, and the prosperous
times which are prevailiny.through-
out the country, the merchants
should have no trouble in disposing
OF their mammoth stocks.

The appointment OF ]. ]. Dono-
van, as register of-the United States
land Office at Marquette, as well as
that OF Mr.. Knappen, was trans
mitted to the senate Monday for

The judicial nomination doubtless
cansed surprise to many people in
Grand Rapids, where it was thought
that either Judge Clement Smith, Of
Hastings, or Arthur Denison, OF
Grand Rapids. would be designated
as Judge Wanty's successor. Judge
Welcott and G. B. Blair, both of
Grand Rapids, also were mentioned
prominently In connection with the
place.
Since the death Of Judge VANITY
no session of the United States
court has been held in Marquette,
such business as it has been neces-
sary to transact having been attend
ed to by Judge Swan, Of Detroit.
