Newsy Notes and Occasional Occurrences
From our Near Neighbors.
Eaton Rapids has a fruit evaporator
that will consume 1,000 bushels of apples per day.
A Light Infantry company has been
formed a t Ann Arbor, with Captain
Hiscoek at the head.
South Lyon's new flour mill will
commence business in a few days. It
will turn out 150 bushels of flour daily.
Plymouth people want waterworks
and have estimated its cost at $20,000.
The citizens will soon be called to vote
it.
Applications from the law dudes of
the university for admission to the bar
are burying county clerk Brown's desk
out of sight.
The T. & A. A. Hy. had another
freight train collision, Monday, near
Howell. Several cars were badly
wrecked but human life escaped injury.
The Clinton Local says D. Woodward
and family were compelled to sleep in
the i'oad two nights last week. The
house was being moved.
Some of Adrian's fair citizens have
a mania for gold watches and satisfy
their hunger by waiting 'till their
friends are all gone to church and then
make the lonely homes a call.
One of Milan's prosperous farmers,
Frank Butler, has been trying a new
diet for his herd of Holsteins. One
feed proved enough and he at once
made another change. A dynamite
cartridge chewed up by a hiefer is anything but a safe or even profitable experiment.
A quiet citizen, who was run into by
a bicycle, Tuesday, quietly picked up
the thing and cast it over a fence down
an embankment, and when the bicycler
gave him "sass," hint picked he also
quietly up, and cast him likewise over
the fence, down the bank, then quietly
pursued the even tenor of his daily
walk.^Adrian Press.
Co. A of Ann Arbor do not propose
to bo crushed out of existance but will
remain an independent organization.
Captain J. F, Schuh, who is an able
drill master, will put the boys through
a course of sprouts once or twice a week.
In the near future they propose to appear on the streets on bicycles,' one
hundred strong.
The Adrian Press man says:
Two gay young men of Cadmus, each
with a soft spot in his heart for a schoolman and a dandy rig ready to convey
her to her school, quarreled the
other day, each insisting* on his right
to her. In the background stood a third
youth, also with queer feelings around
the edges of his heart. He had no
dandy rig, but did have a hope thatthe
other two rivals would kill each other.
The matter was compromised, between
the first two, by the youug lady* riding
a mile, first with one and then with
the other, and the bashful young nan
\yith rq rig was completely unhorsed.

Address ''Tho Home Fascinator,"
Montreal, Canada.
Centkalia, Wash., May 22,1891.
Ep. Obseevee.
Dear Sir:—Many requests were
made by friends that I should write
them regarding my trip and my ideas
of this country and if your space is not
limited I will give them the details of
our trip to this place, which, was made
in four days and twenty-two hours,with
a stop over at Tower City of fifteen
hours.
We left Ann Arbor the 14lh at
2:20 p. m., andChicago,via. the Wisconsin Central, 10:40 p. m., the same evening. Daylight revealed to us Fond du Lac
and Osbkosh, on Lake Winnebago, and
from there we saw much of the work of
the fire fiend among the virgin forests
of Wisconsin, thousands of acres being
burned over and in smouldering ruins.
I was surprised to find so large lumbering interests in Wisconsin. We were
pulled into St. Paul at 4:15 p. m. the
15th, stopping only to change engines,
were harried on to Minneapolis and on
over the garden of the west by the finely equipped Northern Pacific road.
Until dark shut out our view we saw as
fine a section of country as one could
wish.
At 3:30 a. m., the 16th, we
knocked at the front door of the Park
hotel at Tower City, now managed by
Harrison Vorhies, who still thinks that
he will stay where he is as a matter of
choice and that Dakota and Tower City
will yet win. Breakfast over, we then
called on E. Bickford and family, E. B.
Clark and others who were formerly
from Saline and vicinity, all being well
but Mrs. Clark, who is suffering from
paralysis. Our old friend Peter Ka-
nouse was arranging to go to Staples
Mills, Wis., to engage in "the meat business there. Our business done at this
point we again turned westward, over
the prairies and through bad lands,
which ought to be fenced in and used
to banish the criminals of our land.
I can think of no Other use for them.
These passed we are at the foot hills of
the Rockies, a grand view. Thousands
of horses and cattle are grazing in the
valleys and on the mountain sides and
the peaks capped with snow,meltiug and
sending down their waters through,
valleys to living below. All this time
the iron horse is snorting and panting
on the up grade, winding through deep
cuts, over high bridges, until finally we
reach the summit and begin the descent. There one feels like trusting in
providence, "provided the britching
doesn't break," until a level is reached.
There are many cities of great imporfranco like Livingston, Butte and Helena
noted for their mines and high attitude,
which are the centers of trade in this
mountain region.
,We reached the handsome city of
Spokane at 3:15 the 18th. Here are
the evidences of energy andsnax) which
at onoe impresses one that he is surely
in the west. It is the banner town be--
tween the Rockies and the Cascade
range. From here on over a comparatively level country, suitable for farming and grazing, scarcely settled until
we reach the Cascade range. Then h&-
gins a most delightful ride. Unlike the
Rockies this range is covered to their
summits with grass and tipaber. and.
provide grazing fp,r. a great amount of
stock. One can know their beauty only
by vje wing them. The valleys are generally densly covered with the fir running up to great lengths and incredible diameters. What was a great
mystery to me was that so much timber could be grown on a square rod,
trees Of immense size standing so cloge,
that a horse could not pass for long- distances, but when Qne. is, made acquainted w\\}^ t.he. atmospheric conditions of
this range it is explained. Passing
this beautiful range we were soon landed in the city of Tacoma.* An hour
gave us time to take a hurried look of
this hustling city at the head of Puget
Sound. Here again is seen tla<"j evidence
of the push and layiBb, expenditure of
money, bu| i,ts natural location must in-
stira a large patronage and a future
growth. From here to Centralia is a,
fine country.
We were met at the depQt b$j Krante
H. Miller and wife arid George Miller,
who soon escorted us home where a fine
dinner was soon provided by Mrs. Miller. This over, Frank hooked up ono
of his "fast steppers" and the city of
Centralia was soon shown the writer.
This city has a promising outlook and
real estate is firm and steady.
Our friend, H. J. Miller, and family
we found enjoying good health and very
pleasantly situated, whose hospitality
has been enj05*ed by the writer since
here. A. Hamlin, George Walker an4
H. Lindsley are enjoying good Itiealta,
and doing well and express, ^ejnsjei-vies
well pleased with the "?fe"§t. Bferbert
Lindsley's future OT&spectsf I "am informed ave. 'ji-p"ec"1,f"4y promising and
ililfel's*; *-|6** gi*QV"- '-greener" soon. My
futuV-e travels are indefinite now but
will be given later.
Respectfully Yours,
