TRAMWAY WILL GO
OUT WILLOW STREET
Instead of entering Otter street on
the western side of the town as was
originally announced, it is now given
out that the Mutchler Bros, tramway
for which they are now securing the
necessary timber will be built straight i
out from the foot of Willow street
along the main highway as used last
winter. It will pass straight out for
perhaps half a mile, or until the lakes
are past when it will bear to the west
towards the old route laid out.
This arrangement, which seems very j
satisfactory in every way, will obviate '
the conflict that was anticipated if both
the Mutchler road and the Robe tram
way came into town on the same streets.
With a crew now out cutting timber,
it is probable that the citizens ot the
town will see rails going down on Wil
low street by the first of the month.
Dr. B. F. Brooks, who has been prac
ticing in the city during the winter,
has moved his offices to Discovery,
Otter, where he will follow his profes

Are Well Worth Looking Into
—
It is only a select few who are wise
j to the fact that a very delightful series
j of dances have heen pulled off here
j Saturday nights of late, at Ansley’s
! hall, and upon investigation it was
j learned that they were quite willing
| their friends should learn about it,
| that they might get in on the good
times.
Bierman, Bourret and Drapeau have
have been furnishing a superior qual
ity of music for these affairs and they
will be there with the same line of
melody tonight. In addition, these
are informal parties where the chief
object sought is the greatest amount
of pleasure in the shortest possible
time. Hence, if you are not wedded
permanently to Old Lady Grouch, get
a temporary divorce and come on and
flirt with winsome Joy for a brief
session.
Strawberry Sundaes at the Red
Cross Drug Store tomorrow.
To Bridge Otter in Front of Flat
With a subscription of $1000, the
citizens of Flat have been getting busy
during the past week and are about to
begin work on a bridge which is to be
thrown across Otter creek on the gov
ernment road and just above the
mouth of Cottonwood. The committee
in charge of the work, Messrs. Hussey,
Carter, Snyder and Connolly have
practically raised all the money and
accepted a bid for the immediate com
mencement of the work.
The enterprise is a striking illus
tration of tire spirit of Flat and
promises a big convenience for the
travelling public this summer. Besides
i; puts the kibosh on the omnipresent
ferry man.
Although doubtless unnecessary in
the later season, a bridge is all to the
merry during high water and is always
a great convenience. Besides it will
be a good place to stand on moonlight
nights.

formerly associated with F. S. Gordc n

number of years and where he first
met Mr. Gordon. He was seized by a
nervous breakdown some months ago,
and finally succumbed through heart
