On Saturday evening last some of the lively youths rewovd the inanimate form and stood it erect on the railwaytrack. The 9.30 train came along, sudenly the engineer sounded the alarm whistle, but "the man" did not move, the train went thundering over him. The engine was reversed and the train went back only to find the mangled remains of a man of straw. It is quite possible the railway people did not appreciate the joke. 8csoot Plo-. c, -A pin-nie was held on Friday last oa the grounds of S. 8. No. 6, under the superintendence of Mr. W. S. Lawrence, the teacher of the sec- tion. The tables were laid and s plen- teous supply of provisions was.furnuthed by the ladies, and a most enjoyable af- ternoon was participated in by all who attended. The number of adults and visitors from a distance sou large, but fortunately ample provision for the accommodation of all had boon made. Swings were used to a oonaiderable ex- tent by the fair sex, aided by escorts, and croquet and ring toss also had ar- dent admirer. Shortly before the dis- persal of the gathering, Mr. Naftel was voted in chairman, and that gentleman at once proceeded to exercise his au- thority by calling the gathering to order. Speeches were then made by Mr. D. McGillicuddy and School Inspector Miller, which were duly appreciated. During the day games were indulged in by the children connected with the school, which resulted very satisfactorily. Meteorological Report.

The Detroit, Iachinac, and Suzette Railroad Company === SN=_ NOW OFFER FOR SALE OVER 1,300,000 ACRES Of the Choicest FARMING and TIMBERED LANDS in the, Northern Peninsula of Michigan, Destined to be the best wheat -producing region in the world. These lands are situated In the counties of Chippewa, Mackinac, Schoolcraft, and Marquette, and embrace many thousands otacres of the best agricultural lands in the State of Michigan. Among those 1n the counties of Chippewa and Mackinac are tracts of what are known as the "burnt or cleared" lands. These lands offer many advanttaaggeese over thepralrle lands of the West, as the timber lands adjoining Insure a supply of fuel at le cost. The sell being a rich clay loamof great depth. The timber remaining upon the Ian being generally sufficient for the settlers' use in building and fencing. These partially cleared lands are now offered at the low price of from 51 to $1.50 per acre, one-fourth each, and the remainder at purchasers' option, at any time within nine years, with interest payable annually at seven per cent. Ronde are being opened through these lands, and no better opportunity has ever been offered to men of small means to secure a good farm, and intendingpnlehasere will be wise by availing themselves of this chance before prices advance, as the lands are being rapidly taken and settled upon. Tbe lands more immediately nn the line of the Detroit, Mackinac. and Marquette Railroad from the Straits of Mackinac to Marquette are more heavilytimbered. and are almost univers- ally good agricultural lands. leaving splendid. farms wben te timber is removed. The iron and lumber interests of the upper peninsula are of each Magnitude as to call for all the charcoal and lumber that the timber and wood upon the lands will produce–this will enable the settler to make good wages while clearing the land. Lumber Mills and Charcoal Kilns will he built at various points along the line. and Furn- aces are now being crested along the line of the road at point Rt. The great demand and good prices for labor. both 1a wtnterand emnmer, make these lands particularly desirable as home. for the poor man. The lands adjacent the Railroad are offered at prices from 55 upwards. according to location, value of timber, etc. The lands are at your very door. and are being rapidly settled by Canadians.
