fch the close of the1 presidential campaign The Tribune
recognizes the fact that American people are now anxious
to give their, attention to home and business interests. To
meet this condition, politics will have far less space and
prominence, until another State or National occasion demands a renewal of the fight for principles for which The
Tribune* has labored from its inception to the present day,
and won Its greatest victories.
Every possible effort will be*put forth, and money freely
spent to make The Weekly Tribune preeminently a National
IPamily Newspaper, interesting, Instructive, entertaining
and Indispensable to each member of the family.
We furnish THE SENTINEL and

For Sale
Saturday, January 2nd a deal was
consumated by which the plant of the
Clare Wooden ware Co. was sold to
Mr. C. W. Althouse of Ithaca, who will
convert the same into a stave and
heading factory. The work of putting the new machinery in shape
is already in progress and in ten days
or two weeks the mill will be running.
To start the mill will employ 25
to 30 men and in a few months there
will probably be 50 to 60 men at work.
Mr. Althouse was in the city yesterday and has instructed Mr. Mortz to
begin at once buying basswood and
elm bolts and elm logs.
The. large amount of bolts, etc..
which have been shipped from Clare
to Ithaca during the past couple of
years, will now be manufactured here,
thus giving employment to Clare
laboring men and making a ready cash
market for the many farmers who
have bolts to sell. Clare's fine shipping facilities were one of the important factors which induced Mr.
Althouse to locate liere.
We anderstand Mr. Althouse to be
a man of untiring push and energy
and Clare congratulates herself on
securing such an one as the bead of
this important, and what will prove
to be paying industry.
ARE THEY COUNTERFEITERS?
Mother of   16  Children.   Arrested   Here
Tuesday.     v
Under Sheriff Gordanier. accompanied by H. A. Harbeck of Bay City,
a deputy United States Marshal, went
to the home of Mr. and Mrs. Yager,
three miles north and two miles west
of here, Tuesday, and arrested the
woman. The family are apparently in
destitute circumstances, and the woman was charged with passing counterfeit silver dollais. She does not
seem to be over 30 years of age, but is
the mother of 16 children. It is alleged that she has been buying chickens
and farm products in the neighborhood
with spurious money. The shanty
was searched, but no device for making money was found.
The woman was taken to Saginaw,
Tuesday, but was allowed to return
home the next morning. Her husband
is said to be a shiftless fellow, whose
principal occupation is playing at
dances. He is also said to be crazy,
but that is not to be wondered at
when it is remembered that he is the
father of 16 children. They have been
married 17 years. The family claimed
tnat Yager received the money at
different times in payment for playing at dances, but they tell contradictory stories.

A Happy Wedding.
A pleasant duty devolves upon us
this week in the chronicling of the
happy nuptials of one of Clare's hustling and prosperous young business
men, and a, talented and much respected young lady of Richmond, Michigan,
formerly of Clare.
James S. Bicknell and Alberta Mae
Long were united in marriage by Rev.
S. A. Long on Wednesday, January 6,
1897, at 3 p. m., at the home of the
bride's parents in Richmond, in the
presence of a few immediate friends.
The presents were numerous and
costly, some from a long distance. Mr.
and Mrs. Bicknell are expected in
Clare tomorrow. Monday they will go
to Shepherd, their future home, where
Mr. Bicknell is conducting a prosperous business. Both young people are
well known here and their many
friends wish them a long life of happiness and prosperity.
CIRCUIT   COURT.
WIFE'S TERRIBLE SIGHT.
Very interesting Session at Harrison, this
Week.
* There are 14 cases on the calendar,
5 criminal, 7 issues of fact and 2 in
chancery. At the present writing only
two cases have come to trial, that of
the "People vs. Cornelious Bailius,
larceny, verdict of not guilty, which
seemed to please the people generally,
and the case of the People vs. John G-.
Husted, violation of liquor law; jury
still out.   Later—jury disagreed.
Four of the cases will be continued
over term. Altbough Judge Dodds is
hustling things with his usual briskness, it is not likely that the calendar
will be finished this week.
One cf the eases for trial of local interest is that of Jennie Hawkins vs.
John O'Callaghan. We understand
Mrs. Hawkins asks for$10,000 damages
she claiming that Mr. O'Callaghan accused her of stealing clothes from his
home.
Henry Heisman is assisting Clerk
Morrissey in court this week.
F. .Fervorse is acting as special deputy during court.
Great interest was taken in the
Landers and Durfee larceny trial, the
court room being crowded to suffocation, a large number of women were

Apron Ginghams,
Saw her Husband's Head Nearly Cnt Off.   present
A man by the name of Thomas, living in the north-east corner of Clare
county, was killed yesterday by falling on a saw. Thomas had a saw fixed
for cutting wood and run by an engine
that was used for threshing. He had
just put some wood in the engine and
stepped back when he slipped and fell
forward, striking the saw and nearly
severing his head from the body. His
wife saw the accident and ran out,
but when she arrived he was dead.
He leaves a widow and four children.
—The above is from yesterday's Detroit Free Press. We have been unable to learn further particulars.
Buy your dress hat at Mrs. Redson's
and get a sleeve holder. Neatest
thing out for putting on a coat.

Have Mercy on Your  Beast.—In
cold weather blanket your horse while
stopping. Don't leave the poor animal standing almost perishing in the
raw wind. "A merciful man is merci-
ful to his beast." Some men will drive
into town, find a place out of the wind
for his team, and then cover them up
with warm blankets, while others will
pay no attention to the comfort of
their horses, leaving them for hours
uncovered in the cold. It is a shame
to treat dumb animals thus.
The Other Aid Society will meet
next Wednesday afternoon at the
home of Mrs. A. J. Doherty. At the
