building. $1,008; bank furniture, $129;

The available grazing land in Arthur
township is fast being taken up.
Quite recently the Saginaw Beef Co.
purchased more than 600 acres and are
now, under management of L. W.
Sunday, inclosing same with Page
fence. Mr. Sunday will have charge
of the ranch and will continue to buy
cattle aud sheep for the firm, which
he will keep at the ranch until thev
are wanted in Saginaw. This is excellent land, good clay bottom, and tbe
north brapch of the Tobacco crossing
it, makes it a very desirable place
to graze. The grazing land in Olare
county is fast being fenced and will
doubtless all be enclosed in the not
distant future,
The fire alarm sounded Tuesday
evening about half past eight. It was
found that the building just north of
the Sentinei, offlce was on flre. The
prompt action of our excellent flre department soon extinguished the flames
and the damage will reach not more
than fifty dollars. Before this flre was
extinguished the alarm was again
turned in. This time.it was for a flre
in the rear of J. F. Tatman's store.
Every indication shows that both
buildings .were set on flre, a bottle in
which kerosene had been being found
between this office and the building
just north. The work was probably'
done by boys, '• and evidences point
pretty strongly to a pair who will in
the future be closely watched, and if
strong enough evidence can be produced arrests will follow. It seems
nothing hut the desire to be desperate
would induce a boy to set these last
four fires, and should he stop to think
that fifteen or twenty years behind
stolte walls and iron bars may be his if
he is found guilty, it seems the torch
would not be further applied by him.

Lansing being re-elected president and
gave his annual address in which he
said that the Board has accomplished
much with its limited appropriation
and recommended that tbey ask the
Legislature for Ave thousand dollars
to be used for general purposes, including its work to help stamp the small
pox out of this state, A map of Michigan was exhibited which showed that
tbe state is well "peppered"'with
smallpox, it now being present in one
hundred and two places and it has
existed since January 1, in one hundred
and eighty-two places. At the close
of the first quarter of 19U1 final reports
had been received * of seventy-seven
outbreaks showing that 500 cases occurred, including seyeh deaths, a little
less than one and one-half pet* Cent.
The subject of the Bubonic p plague
which was discovered in Ann Arbor
and which is now raging in Oahfdrnia,
was introduced but on account of a
lack of funds nothing can b£ done
against it. It seems that this should
not be 30 and that all necessary fund
should be provided to assist the Board
in helping eradicate all commuaicable
diseases.
