there are few instances of its actual
occurrence.      *

Anujuberof the smaller cities'of
the state, as well as the larger ories,
have a bode of fire alarm signals such
that the part of the city in which the
fire is, (ianbe readily told by the alarm.
ISo serious delay, so far as We know,
has ev<?r occurred in Clare on account
of lack! of knowledge of the location of
a fire, Ibut who can tell how soon it
may oc}cur? Let a system of fire signals be| adopted. ,
The | Corbett-Mitchell prize fight
tookp|ace at Jacksonville, Florida,
yesterday afternoon. . Corbett wa&the
winner in three rounds. The details
of the| fight, though not drawn out to
the us! ial length, are sufficiently disgusting to satisfy the brutal passion
for bltfod which the sporting f ratelrni-
tyhavjp in common with the untutored
sayag<j. The cry of the crowd to '/kill
him" i*nd -'finish "him," was almost
literally obeyed by Corbett, as with
tiger-like ferocity he glutted hirjiself
by pounding Mitchell to insensibility
as hei leaned helplessly against.; the
ropes ijin the third round. The -only
lamett of the crowd was that the fight
was nipt prolonged through at least
twenty rounds so that they could get*
their| money's worth. There is a certain 3:ind of pride, doubtless, in knowing tlat of the two the American won;
just i ,s there is a certain kind of jpride
inknpwing that an American bull dog
has licked an English pup. Corbett is
not sjichasot as Sullivan, otherwise it
is hajjrd to see the distinction-jj-yet,
Cortmtt is King?

An electric light plant in Gladwin is
amongst the possibilities 'ere long. It
will be run in connection with the
grist mill and lights will be furnished
at a minimum cost. F. L. Prindle
and J. Schultz are the projectors. The
boarr' of supervisors passed a resolution
agreeing to take the lights at the
court house. A number of our enterprising business men have also 'contracted to take lights and with proper
effort success is assured.—Record.
!Now, Clare needs her streets lighted
and she has a grist mill where water
power is cheap. If you don't see the
connection, make one.
A. IS". Smith, baggageman at the
union depot, is thankful for good smelling powers. Tuesday evening,* when
he went home from work, he thought
he detected the odor of burning soot
about the house, but a thorough search
proved that the chimneys were all
right. When about to go to bed, he
could smell pine burning, but no pine
could be found on fire anywhere. He
even searched the garrets through. At
about one o'clock the idea of fire was
so strong on his mind that he got up
and searched the entire house to discover whence the smell of burning
soot and pine. It was about two hours
before he found it. Behind the kitch->
en stove was a pan full of soot that he
had cleaned from'the stoves the day
before. In building the fire or lighting a lamp a match had' been thrown
into it. When found, the soot in the
pan was one great coal, while the bare
floor underneath was burned quite
deeply. _To -doubt a half hour longer*
would have seen the house in flames.
The moral is evident: Don't leave
soot in the house,; but if you do leave
it in the house don't throw matches ip.
it; but if you do leave it in the house
and throw matches in it, be provideii
with good smellers. '     j

The executive committee of the

of Traverse City and Blodgett of Mt.
Pleasant, met at the Hotel McKinnon
in Cadillac Saturday morning of
last' week to prepare the program

by vote of the club itself that the next

Rockafellow and R. M. Mussell.
This is the rough-shod way in which
Miller, of the Mt. Pleasant Democrat,
wulks over the form of Don M. Dickinson. Miller, you know, failed to get
the post office. Its local application
is so pat thatiwe give it place: "Don
Ml Dickinson had no more right to
brush aside the state organization of
Michigan, to'ignore the will of the
people, than he would have had to go
down into Ohio, Indiana,, Pennsylvania
or; any other state and interfere with
tl[e petty local offices.. Don M. Dickinson has caused more dissension in
the democratic ranks of this state
tlian all other factors combined. He
b^gan it first by disrupting his party
in his owe city, by his boyish quarrels,
aijid by his very apparent desire to
kfeep others from rising and" taking
aiayofthe political glory he would
maintain for himself. His evident de-
sijre to be known as tlae upper and low-
ei* peninsulas of Michigan, with shores
gashed by the unsalted seas, has been
communicated to the president and
t'Jiat gentleman apparently actually
tj'elieves that Dickinson county com-
TJlrises the entire state and Don is the
capital. By this power he has . been
ajble to place such men as he chose on
gjuard as referees in Michigan, and the
judgment he exercised in the selection
*\jrould pale before the political sagacity
(if a third-rate politician. Yes, Don
1j_. Dickinson is "plucking the plums,"
and will probably continue so to do,
but should he, the time will be short
