District Republican Convention and Local Notices

A Congregational Ladies fundraiser, hospital and railway notes, and wedding or obituary mentions color the patchy, nostalgic record of life in TRIX.

Judge Whye Rules Linseed Works Odor Injunction
Judge Whye grants an injunction to restrain Linseed Oil Works from operating to produce offensive odors in a heavily populated area. The court found odors affected residences and town parts, noting the defendant can run the works without odor. The ruling limits the injunction to prevent odor production rather than a total shutdown. The M. K. church has remodeled the choir platform and laid hard wood floors in the front vestibule of the church.

Electric roads threaten steam railways future
Suburban patronage has largely shifted to electric lines, forcing steam railways to seek new methods. Major routes through cities like New York and Cleveland face competition, with the Lake Shore and Michigan Southern and New York Central exploring rapid transit options. Trials with compressed air, storage batteries, and steam motors are under way, mainly in the East, as officials remain reticent. An hourly Elyria to Cleveland service on the Lake Shore road may be tried within a year.
