^er.train on thcM'oledo, Ann Arbor &
f^orth Michigan railroad, due at Clare at
-ipo'clock'injii., was two or three minutes
behind th©v?e!'ieduie time. The F. & P.
M. train had pulled in at tho depot, and
the crowd stood in waiting upon the
platform for the T. & A., which was only
a mile or so distant, as could be £een by
the smoke upon the horizon above the
tree tops. As the train neared the vil
lage and was rounding the curve about
80 rods north of the depot, those in waiting suddenly became aware that something unusual had happened. There was
a cr«ish, and the noise and clones of the
escaping steam conveyed the news that :i
serious, if not fatal accident had occurred.
Peopie rushed for the spot.
A DE3IOCKA.T reporter was one of the
iirst to reaeh the scene. J c took some
time for the clouds of smoke and steam,
to clear away before a view could be had
of the position of the engine. The balance of the train, consisting of a baggage car and smoker combined and a passenger coach, had left the track, but succeeded in retaining an upright position,
and sustained no damage excepting to
the front end of the baggage car. It is
needless to give assurance that the passengers received a severe shaking up. The
engine was completely demolished. It
looked as though it had broken in twain,
the front part of the tender leaving the
track and heading for ihe woods, apparently endeavoring to drag, the engine
with it. The back or cab. part was farthest one into the ditch; lying it a«right-
aagle with tbe track. The "engine .was
thrown over upon its left side, puflhig,

Shannon], a "ffongii.
Two Habbobs, Minn., Jan.5.—At' 7
o'clock this evening occured one of the
worst tragedies in the history of our village. For some months Mike Shannon
; has been a sort of terror here, and it is
not long since he was engaged in a row-
in which his nose was bitten off by Ms
antagonist. To day Shannon had been
drinking heavily, and in a very qoarael-
some frame of mind wandered into the
house of Frank Alger. Mr. Alger . asked
him to go out, and Shannon refused, and
when Alger insisted, Shannon prepared
for battle. Mr. Alger feeling himself no
match for the brute wiiose passions were
influenced by liquor, in sheer self-defense
drew a. revolver and shot Shannon
throughthe heart, killing him instantly.
Public sentiment is with Mr. Atger,
and as the above facts are common knowledge, the matte- wiJl hardely require
legal investigation.
[The above item is from the Duluth.
Daily News of January 6th. and explains
itself without comment. Mr. Alger and
his wife are both well known in Clare,
and it is hoped that Frank will be occasioned no trouble over the matter. ;Tis
with regret that we chronicle the deplorable affair. T

For the first time this winter, the shrill
blast of the fire alarm at the water works
was sounded' last Sunday- about 11 ;30 p.
m. The scene was the burning of a
dwelling house just across the county
line, belonging to Horace-Stevens. The
fire originated in tim roof of the kitchen,
xresumably from a *defective chimney.
The house was outside the fire limits <.6l
the village and over two blocks from the
nearest hydrant, the building being nearly coiibunied before hose was laid and
water plying onvtbe flumes, Nearly the
entire content* were saved, but the building is a total loss, about §700, and "falls
heavily upon Mr. Stevens, who is a poor
man. The building was insured for $400
in a company for which J. C. llockafel-

to pay a mortgage on the property.

was given, and as time passed and Shaver failed to put in appearance, "Eeid be-
gan to smell a. •'rat." When brought before a justice, Shayer protested, claiming
that Davis was just as deeply in the muddle as himself, and that the* money had
been divided upon Davis representing
'himself to Beid that- he was a depntv-
sheriff. Iu the face of this fact a warrant-was issued for Davis and placed iu
the hands of Deputy-sheriff Parrish, who

Haven't you often' noticed that some
papers ar*» continually singing and re-
singing an old song which runs something like this: "When answering ads.
"mention this paper,"' "Kindly mention
this paper when writing to advertisers,'"1
etc.," etc. Of course you have noticed it,
and perhaps you have noticed another
thing, namely, that the Democrat has
been yery forbearing in this respect. In
return for this forbearance on our part,
you will pardon us if we this once remind you. that you will be conferring a
real favor upon both ourselves and our
local advertisers if you mention to theih
that you saw their ad. in the Democrat.
11 ow easily you can do this, when yon
are in their places of business. Just try
it the next time you drop in the store
and see how happy it will make the proprietor.
ANOTHER THING.
So accustomed are the American people to-day to seeing ads. headed "Bar-'-
gains,-' 'jSacrifice Sa]es,n t;GreatJRedlie-
tions," aritl so on and so forth, that, actually some of us have, never imagined that
maybe these ads. mean ivhat they say.
Have you kind reader ever grasped and
made thoroughly your own the great
thought that merchants who advertise
"Bargains71 are actually giving hnrgains?
Or does the talk of "Reduction in Prices'"
slide oil* your mind like the proverbial
water from the duck's back?

paragraph, it may not help you morally
or physically, but it surely will financially.

that in his visitations of schools, he-finds
that the teachers do too much of the
work themselves, and require too little of
their pupils. Lacking in developing interest by drawing out the ideas oi the pu-v
pils they of course fail sadly in , hearing
recitations and in keeping the attention
.of the pupils. Another evil arises . from.-
this cause, and that is, pupils lean tod
much on the. teacher and become careless
about study, and therefore idle. These
are hints that are valuable, and should
cause every teacher to aim to deyelop the
child's mind, and lead him to express his;
own thoughts, rather than assent unto .
the thoughts of the teacher. Secure men-
tal development by thoughts expressed >
by the learner, rather than hy simply
hearing recitations: and you not only secure, a proper education, but also elicit
interest that will make a recitation full
of life and attention, and cause the pupil
at his seat to ,a*<rid idleness by seeking
for more knowledge.
