Spring at Glen Haven.

   The warm weather of the last few days has made it very apparent at Glen Haven, as elsewhere that spring has come. The ice went out of the lake yesterday. It suddenly seemed to disappear as far down the lake as the eye could see. It seemed to settle or be enveloped in the waters. In the afternoon the Ossahinta made its first trip from Skaneateles to Glen Haven. The steamer Glen Haven will begin running regularly about the first of June, but before that will make occasional trips.
 

 

More Bicycles.

   Those interested or contemplating the purchase of a bicycle during the coming season will find it to their interest to refer to another column of this issue and read the special announcement the Cortland Wagon company are making regarding wheels. This company has recently fitted up a part of its elegant showroom for the exhibition of its Diana bicycle and offer to the public a strictly high grade wheel at a price that will enable everybody to ride. The new department will be in charge of Mr. E. B. Richardson who will take pleasure in showing the goods to all comers.

   Diana bicycles embody all the up-to-date features, namely; large tubing, barrel hubs and crank hangers, adjustable handle bars, cycloidal sprocket and white rims and its beautiful proportions and elegant finish make it one of the most attractive wheels we have had the pleasure of examining this year.

Carload of Mules.

   Mr. F. N. Harrington this morning received a carload of mules, twenty-two in number from Long Island which he intends to sell.

 
                                                           The Gypsy Encampment.

   Have you seen the load of gypsys? They will camp at the Universalist church Wednesday evening. They will sing, drill, have a wedding, booths for the sale of fancy articles and other novelties which you must see and enjoy. Ice cream served. Admission ten cents.

Said He Was From Buffalo.

   A man giving his name as Yates was arrested last night on the charge of public intoxication. To-day he was brought before Police Justice Mellon. He said he was from Buffalo, but wanted to get out of Cortland, which he promised to do at once and was discharged.

A New Barber.

   Mr. H. Banks, proprietor of the Cortland House barber shop, has secured the services of Mr. A. M. Rhinevault of Binghamton to take charge of his third chair. Mr. Rhinevault comes well recommended.

Auburn Bulletin's New Dress.

   The Auburn Bulletin made its appearance last night in a handsome new dress that is as becoming as any Easter suit worn by the most fashionable and up-to-date lady. The improvement is particularly noticeable in the style of its new head letter. With the new type The Bulletin has adopted the stereotyping process, and its swift Goss press enables it to turn out 16,000 eight page sheets per hour. The Bulletin has one of the best equipped offices for a city of its size in Central New York, and is a wide awake newspaper.
