Some excitement was occasioned
yesterday afternoon by a refractory
heifer that W. T. Wier was attempting to lead or drive through McEwan street on the way-to the slaughter house. The animal made several
savage lunges at pedestrians and finally was thrown to the ground in front
of G*. A. B. hall arid refused to get up
again. Every body kept a safe distance until it was discovered that the
.animal's neck was broken.
Bewspaper men are blamed with a
lot of thing they can't help, such as
using-partiality in mentioning visitors,
giving news about some folks and leaving others out, etc. He simply-prints
the news he can fiind. Some people
inform him about such things and
others do not. An editor should not
be expected, to know the name and
residence of all your uncles, aunts and
cousins even if he should see them
get on and off the train. Tell us
about it. Its. news that makes the
newspaper.

County Treasurer W. H. Browne
of Harrison was in the city Tuesday.

mentioned so far as can be learned.

to see the finest display of millinery

The Clare Ladies' Cemetery Association would kindly ask all lot owners,
who have not already cleared their lots
of weads, to do so at once..-,, Bemember
that all debris must be removed from
the grounds, also that in fixing up the
lots no dirt must be taken from the
walks or driveways. Let us all try to
beautify our cemetery.
The smaller 5th street school building which we mentioned last week as
having been sold to the wooden ware
company, was moved Tuesday and
Wednesday by "Tony" Allison, and
now occupies a position in front of the
wooden ware factory. It will be used
by the company for an office, for the
meetings of the stock-holders and for
storing small supplies, thus giving
more room in the main building.

the formation of Grant township.
The Bocter has an interesting paper
to present at the coming meeting of
the pioneer society at Harrison, Oct.
10th, and needs the data to complete
his paper. By the way, the coming
session of the pioneer society will be
very valuable from an historical point
of view and all old settlers and others
should attend.
Assistant Postmaster Albert Maynard has quite an eye to improvements in the conveniences of the post
office and incidentally to the efficiency
of the service. We note that recently
a new assorting case, table and boxes
have been added to facilitate the
rapid handling of mails. There is one
other convenience that the public
would greatly appreciate, and that is
an opportunity to purchase stamps as
well as money orders while the delivery windows are closed during dis-
trubution of mails.
One of the candidates for sheriff on
the republican ticket, in conversation
with the Sentinel a "few days ago,
showed by his talk that he possessed
those qualities that every true republican should possess. He said that
while he was a candidate for the office, yet if the party did not want him
and that if it was for the best interests of the party and people that some
one else be nominated instead of him,
that he would gladly step aside
and would work to the best of his
ability for the man who should be the
choice of the convention. The above
should be the sentiment and the way
that every republican should think.
Bemember, that party success is far
above individual success. Let loyalty
to your party predominate and in that
way you will be most loyal to your
country and your country's good.
This paper to Jan. 1, '95, only 25c.

""On order of the "Eastern Star," a
ladies' auxilliary lodge to the Masonic
fraternity was instituted in this city,
Monday evening, by Worthy Grand
Patron, Allen S. Wright of Ionia, and
Worthy Grand Matron Mrs. W. S. Turk
of Alma. The first seven officers of the
new order are, Br. G. W. Burrier, W.
P.; Mrs. Wm. Parrish, W. M.; Mrs.E.
BeYogt, A. M.; Mrs. Jas. Boyd,Sec'y.;
Mrs. J. H. Wilson, Treas.; Mrs. B. McPhall, Con.; Mrs. Budd Wing, A. Con.
Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Bockafellow, members of the Eastern Star of Mt. Pleasant were visitors at the institution of
the lodge; which bids fair to be a
prosperous chapter.
As the local political pot begins to
simmer, preliminary to the boiling
temperature later on, ib is noticeable
that the pot is beginning to call the
kettle black, with the delusive hope
that he may divert the public eye
from his own short-comings to those
of the "other fellow." That those
who pursue such childish and shortsighted tactics are very superficial
judges of human nature is quite evident, for every sensible person is a
lover of fair play, and a departure
from a fair line of argument on the
presentation of personal political
claims or qualifications, to a slanderous distortion of facts, is sure to react
upon the duthor and create sympathy
for the person assailed. The wise
and successful politician or political
writer doesn't work along such debasing lines.
At the head of this page we announce the first speech of the campaign at Boherty opera house by Hon.
J. C. Burrows, at 10 o'clock a. m.,
sharp, standard time, Thursday, October 4th. Mr. Burrows has a national reputation, so nothing need be said
as to his ability. No greater orator of
any party will be upon the platform in
this state this fall. The time at which
the speech is billed is unfortunate, but
can not be avoided; let everyone who
takes an interest in fair public discussion be present, as it is not probable
that Mr. Burrows can be secured again
this season. While the time is too brief
for a grand rally, there is sure to be a
big attendance from all over the
county. The .Harrison band has been
engaged for the occasion. Let every
republican help to advertise the
speech. Bemember, Hon. J. C. Burrows, Thursday next at 10 a. m., Clare.
A
Midland vs. Farwell.
In the two games with Midland—
the first, played at Coleman—was a
pretty decent game barring a large
amount of jangling and jawing and
resulted in favor of Earwell by a score
of 12 to 10. Bickey and Butters of the
Midlands made all the errors for their
side, Bickey having 7 to his credit and
Butters 2. Earwell made 4 errors, two
each for Leonard and Honeywell. Palmer and Baugherty collided in an effort
to take a high fly which was batted
about half way between them. Baugherty secured the ball and Palmer a
broken finger which though painful
did not prevent him from playing
through the game, and also on the following day at Midland.
Midland, taking her defeat to heart,
challenged the Earwell club to play a
game at Midland the next day, which
was accepted. Midland being satisfied that her "aggregation" of Bay
City, Saginaw, Elint and Ann Arbor
players were not able to defeat the
Earwells by playing ball apparently
decided to hire an umpire to win it for
them. In fact, there was no necessity
of the Midland team playing at all for
he was a "whole team and a yaller dog
under the wagon" and put. out more
men than all the rest of the "aggregation" did put together. Such rank,
rotten and apparently "paid for and
delivered" decisions (?) never before
disgraced any diamond, in Michigan
at least. But nothing availed the
Midland aggregation, defeat or its
equivalent—a tie game was the result,
which was just as bitter a disappointment as the defeat of the day before at Coleman.
If Midland or her hireling team
wants to try a game on the Earwell
diamond they will be cheerfully accommodated and will be accorded fair
and courteous treatment—something
they are little used to extending to
visiting teams and may therefore not
appreciate. Come, and we will make
you ashamed of your treatment of Ear-
well. "Playing dirt" is not playing
ball. (Signed),  A Earwell Crank.

Oh Grover, dear Grover,
How can you get over
The curse that will hang 'round that"_k>r_a&n—
Brice"'bill?    "
Had you vetoed or signed it,
"Tour friends would not mind it,
Butyour hand, like your heart, was too weak
for the quill.
"We said at election,
We'd knock out protection,
And show them a bill that was wise and "profound, *    •
But, alas! we've heen sparring
AU summer^ and warring,
And now we're knocked out in the. very last
round.
Oh Grover, dear Grover,
Oar land was in clover
And joy hells were ringing from hill-side and
glen.
For a change we kept crying,
But now we are sighing;
Forlorn are the hopes of the poor workingmen.
With silver we battled,
But soon we got rattled,
And scarcely could tell upon which leg we stootL
We taekled the tarifi,        .
But now I will swear if
We'd left it alone, 'twould have been Ior our
good. y * "
Oh Grover, dear Grover,
Just look the past over, ■
Then smile if you can at the work we have done.
But I think yotfll construe it,
-       If rightly you view It,"
■That our party was struck by a mighty cyclone*
The world stood and wondered
As loudly we thundered,
Just watch for the new birth in Senate ' and.

But they laugh at our groaning,
Our pains and our moaning,
When Democracy's mountain gave birth to _>
mouse.
Farewell, oh my party,
Adieu to thy teaching;
Farewell to thy platform, whose planks are *■___-

In the ides of November
They say they'll dismember
And bury us deeply 'neath sis feet of ;^ro*aa_.
