Recently an Ypsilanti dog rnshed out and dined off the calf of a Chelsea cyoler's leg. The dog has jnst effeoted a settlenieiit of the case, payiüg $100. It was a very dear dinner. At Ypsilaoti, Emaneipation day, one Sogers, a runner from Conneant, Ohio, made a 150-yard dash in 15 seconds flat and then spricted 100 yards in 9 4-5 seconds, which the Ypsilantian states is 'alinost world's record time." No discount on dat' ar chile. It was observed that he kept constantly ahead of his traoks during both races. "Railroad Jack, the haramock rider" - so this rancid pestilenoe signs himself - was in Dundee last week and wrote a card for pnblication in the Reporter, in which hepraised Dundee for bospitality and the editor for "extending the right iand of fellowsbip" while in his office. 3ro. Carr, uid you aotually shake hands with that dirty devil? If so, give us your left paw hereafter. A Detroit bicyclist on his way to the Slondyke passed through Dester on his wheel last Thursday. He startsd with 15 in bis inside pocket, but eSpeots to return a millionaire. - Dexter Leader. He is muoh more likely to return with a punoture in his ambition, his bearngs hot with frietion and the sprockets of his pocket book broken - a soundly converted free silverite at the ratio of 16 to 1. At the Hawkins house, Ypsilanti, recently a traveling man asked the chamjermaid for a clean towel, and when she oflered it, seized her and tried to drag her into his room. The girl screamed and the fellow escapee! trom ;he house, but was pursued by Landlord Lepper, marched back to the hotel, and made to get down on the hinges of his sbanks and humbly beg the cbambermaid's pardon. With hira it was really a bad case of Leppersee.
