HERE AND THERE

1t is thought by conference and
the presenting of facts to the Of
ficials of the Pere Marquette, that
the Thumb districts need of a
daily train service on the Almont
branch will be taken care Of and
fair deal will soon be given.
AS dynamite was being used in
gravel pit near Sandusky, one
stick prematurely exploded, in
juring, but not seriously, two men
and putting one eye out of a
horse. The men wounded are
Edward Rusch and Clifford An
derson.
John E. Young, fireman at the
Brown City Power plant, who was
brutally assaulted by some UNI
known person recently, has been
brought home from the Port HUI
ron hospital, recovered from his
wounds. His assailant has not
been discovered.
At Brown City last week
most enjoyable social affair was
the Mothers and Daughters BAN
quet, given by the school children
under the direction of one of the
teachers. Boys waited on tables
so the girls could be seated with
the mothers. Ninety-five were
present.
Fred Dunn, one Of st. Clair
county's best known pioneers, and
who had spent the whole of his
85 years in the county, died at the
home of his daughter in Port HUI
ron last week Thursday. Mr..
Dunn voted the Republican tick
ct for sixty years and was proud
of the fact.
August Ehrenburg died at the
hospital Thursday morning fol-
lowing an operation on his hip
Wednesday He was injured in
an accident at the gravel pit last
summer, and has been operated
on twice. Since he was injured
the township of Almont has been
caring for him under the compen-
sation act.
A petition has been circulated
among the people in the vicinity
of Peck, asking for a readjust-
ment of the rural route situation
in the vicinity of Peck. The mat
ter had been taken up with the
post Office department some weeks
ago, but, judging from the cor
respondence, the officials did not
know just what was wanted. Con-
gresham Cramton has been asked
to explain the situation to the
post office department, and doubt
less some action will be taken in
the matter. There is neither reas-
on nor sense for people within
one, two and three miles of Peck
getting their mail from a post
office ten miles away, as is the
case in this vicinity.-Peck
Times.

Easy transportation


We are now transporting 2,245
pupils over 60 auto-van routes
and 80 wagon van routes. The
auto van is rapidly displacing
the horse-drawn van because the
former transports the children
in about one-half the time the
latter takes. The children come
to school in conveyances which
are we'll lighted, ventilated and
heated. Their clothing and feet
are dry. They are not exposed to
wind, snow and rain. Our ex-
perience is that there is less sick
ness in schools with transporta-
ton. There is no fighting or i'm
moral conduct to and from school
as the driver of the van has
charge of the children while in
his care. Hear what one farm
er says
Think of the little children
plodding schoolward in cold, wet
and mire Then count up the
number of days they are kept at

Gee. He was found by his brother
Davie, but was last seen by Mrs.
Wright late Sunday evening, then in

Davie took dinner at the home Of their

leaving together and parting company
at the gate Of Dawes place, each go
ing to his own home. Eldon returned
to the Wright home to get some
meat late in evening and talked To
Mrs. Wright. SO far as is known
she was the last to see him alive. Mon
day, Davie went to the Davidson
home And in passing Eldon's tent he
knocked at the door and called his
name, Not receiving any answer he
concluded he was not at home, passed
on, not thinking Of anything unusual.
Tuesday, Davie was notified that BIZ
don's stock had not been fed. he
went down to care for them, think
ing Eldon had gone. to Parma. as ne
had previously asked him to do the
chores for him as he intended going
that week. Davie went into the tent
to get some wheat and found the
body. No tracks in the snow were
ever thought Of before the body was
found Beside the body> which was
lying on it's face, was 20 Remington

these dances are rough and that some
OF the dancers Of both sexes got drunk
that the rooms of the hotel are all

On Sunday night, October 30, last, |
a dance was in progress there and
it is generally agreed that there were 4
100 dancers on the floor, when the
devil came and was in their midst.
Some claim that he came through the
floor, others that he came down from
the roof. He was the regular fellow,
they say, horns, hoofs and tail. The
lights flared, the musical Instruments
flew from the hands of the musicians
and were splintered. Lurid lights fill
ed the place and the devil danced
among them. Women and girls
screamed and tainted. 0neaor more
are still confined in bed with hysteria.
They all fled terror stricken from the
place. Some hid in the woods all
night, others found shelter at farm
houses, 20 ears were left standing by
the pavilion until daylight came and
the party rallied and kept their cour- /
age up by keeping close together and
got the cars away.

about the details, but the above is
told by all. II it was hoax
