•Wm. YanConant's house caught fire
at about 8 o'clock, standard time, last
evening. The origin of the fire is a
little puzzling, as there was no fire in
any of the stoves at the time and no
lamp lighted, ,as the family were all
down town at the time. The fire began in an up-stairs room and -ate its
way into the garret of the up-right,
making it very difficult to get to. In
one respect this was fortunate as there
was no draft and the fire had gained
little headway when the stream was
turned on. The damage on- ho.use and
goods will be about $300, covered by
insurance.
The ball game yesterday between
Farwell and Harrison on the Clare
grounds was ar good one and well attended. Both clubs did some tip top
work, though there were some bad
breaks on both sides, due to the fact
that this was their first game of the
season. Butler, for Harrison, did
some good pitching, and has the making of a good ball player, as he Jean use
the stick very effectively. Ejd Sex-
smith of Clare covered second fase for
Harrison. Decker and Daugherty of
Clare were battery for Farwell,; They
played ball all the time and had pretty
good support, but Farwell hantly held
up its reputation in the out field. Far-
well had six scores to Harrisonjtwp in
the 5th innings, but Harrison Crawled
iip and had one ahead in the fli;st half
of the 9th, but Farwell got two more
in the last and had two men oil bases
and no man out when the game :was
called.    Score—Harrison 8, Farwell 9.

The goat displayed in the line bf
march of Odd Fellows, yesterday, is
supposed to bethe originator of fraternal orders, and was used later in the
day in initiating six members into the
Eebekah lodge. While on the march
his deportment was excellent and he
chewed his little beard as serenely as
though he had just sent a victim
through forty feet of the royal bumper degree.
Mr. and Mrs. J._W. Calkins and son,
Charles, returned yesterday from Arizona. Business is in a terribly depressed condition in that part of the
country. Good saddle horses sell for
from $5 to $10 each, and even saloons
with no fee for license have very little
business. California is experiencing a
terrible drouth and travelers on the
trains from all parts of the country
concede that from all reports Michigan
makes the best business showing this
spring of any state in the Union, and
no county is in better shape today
than Clare county. Mr. Calkins' mining interests in Arizona have a very
bright prospect.
Our readers will not fail to note the
amount of correspondence the Senti-
tstel furnishes each week. _5To country
newspaper in this section- of the state
has a better force of correspondents
and word reaches us from every direction that their efforts are appreciated.
Many items, of course, are trivial, except to the parties immediately interested, but atthe same time there are
always many notes of very general interest. A glance through the columns
of correspondence, (8th and 5th pages)
this week will reveal the principal incidents taking place all over Clare
county andparts of Isabella and Osceola counties.
In the school column of a Portland,
Mich., paper we find the following,
which is worth thinking about: "We
have a boy in our high school who
walks two miles, night and morning,
and does chores for his board on a
farm. He is never tardy, has not been
absent a day since he .entered school,
and is second to none in his grade.
Quite a contrast between this young
man and several who live in town, and
ought to be in school, but instead are
getting their education on the street
or in worse places, loafing, using vile
and prof ane language, and poisoning,
and weakening, their mental, moral,
and physical natures with cigarets. It
does not take a prophet to predict the
future of a young man traveling either
of the above paths."
The following from theMt. Pleasant
Independent, is recommended for local
application. The dose is, a trifle caustic but should be taken by a good
many Clare parents without being diluted a particle: "Some fond mothers
and fathers in this city are 'sowing
to the wind' in respect to their boys,
disregarding all advice and admonition or experience of others. Bye and
bye when they are compelled to ask
the authorities to take charge of their
offspring and send him to the Eeform
School, they will wonder why their
Willie or. Johnie or Charlie turned out
so bad, forgeting that they, by their
weak indulgence of his every whim, by
permitting him to run the streets -at
all times of the day and night, forming the acquaintance and adopting the
vices of loafers and criminals aided to
school him in vice and crime. When
these fond parents 'reap to the wind'
land turn the vicious product oyer to
!the public they may be able, by the
same process of weak reasoning which
lead them to indulge the child in its
every whim, to feel or imagine that
the responsibility for their ruined
| child rests with others,, but the result
will darken their remaining days and
the public will not hold them blame.
less."
Baya Knox and family have moved
from Farwell to this city.
Miss Alberta Long is book-keepej;

S< F. Fine; is moving onto the farm

thei; work.
A. W. Mclntyre, G. T. Converse and

K, C. Stevens was called to the vicinity of Lester last week having received word that his brother, Lewis K.
Stevens was not expected to live.
Death resulted Tuesday from paralysis..-
At the citizens' meeting Wednesday
evening the: following committee was
appointed to co-operate with the G. A.
E. post in making arrangements fo.t
Decoration Day: D. E. Alward, E.
D, Palmer, .John Giberson and Peter
Mortz.
Last evening's fire in the Feighner
addition -emphasizes the fact that a
fire hall further up town is necessary.
By the time the department reached
the bank corner with the carts, running uphill through the sand, the firemen were in no condition to run nearly a naif mile further j but they did it
and did not walk, either. The demand
is heard on all sides for better located
nnd more commodious quarters for at
least part of the hose carts.
William Irwin, of Yernon, died suddenly Tuesday afternoon while working at mason work in the cellar of Jas.
Walsh's new house in Yernon township. The old gentleman was upwards
of j75 years of age and this was about
the first stroke of work he had done
thfs spring. Two or three other men
working on the house saw him falling
over aind hastened to his assistance,
but the vital spark had fled. A jury
wafe held before JusticeFishley, which
rendered the verdict of death from old
age. The, deceased leaves two sons,
William and James who. reside in
Southeast Yernon. The funeral occurred "yesterday near Calkinsville.
The marriage of Miss MyrtielKoontz
of Yernon township to Edward B.
Gorr of this city, took place Wednesday afternoon at the home of the
bride's parents, Mr. and Mrs. ! Robert
Koontz, by Eev. M. D. Eogers, and
was a very pleasant affair, there being
about fifty guests present. Bpth the
contracting parties are so well, and
favorably known that it is unnecessary
to say that a very large circle of friends
wish them much joy. The presents
were numerous and beautiful. Mr.
and Mrs. Gorr will make their home in
this city, occupying one of Mrs., Alger's
cottages on 5th street, east, until Mr-
Gorr completes a house which he is
soon to erect.
J* The 75th anniversary of the!I. O.. O.
F. was celebrated here yesterday in an
appropriate manner. There was a big
representation from the north, west
and east. The exercises went off very
finely all day, the only hitch being in
the morniiog when, the representatives
arrived from the Harrison | branch.
Owing to the train arriving |quitei a
little -while before the usual time
there was no committee at the depot
to welcome the guests, but it Soon put
in an appearance and when the apparent neglect was explained everything
went smoothly. There :wer$ nearly
200 Odd Fellows and Eebekahs in line
of march, headed by the Harrison
band, which presented a fine' appearance. The exercises at the opera house
were of an entertaining nature, the
music was good and the speeches excellent. Mr. Alward,, in his address,
dwelt eloquently upon the benefits of
fraternal orders and especially of Odd-
fellowship, which today numbers nearly a million members in this J country,
propagating a spirit of benevolence
and fraternal solicitude, and teaching
the "Fatherhood of God and ! brotherhood of man." The dance at Dean's
hall in the evening was very largely
attended. As a whole the da;y was a
success. Among the official acts of
the day were the admission ofi Coleman
to the Clare county association, ihe
appointing of Harrison as the pl;*ace
for the 76th anniversary, andj the election of officers. 0. F. Drake pf Hajrri-
son was elected president; secretary,
Wm. H. Browne; treasurer, Mrs. L, L.
Kelley, Farwell. Dr. Kelley', and j__r.
Bieknell were .hade committee , on
transportation for next coiiventipn.
Other committees were also appoiiilljed.
