s. THE NORTHERN TRIBUNE, FEBRUARY 25. 1882. Northern Tribune. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 1882. Banker's Daughter. The Legislature met in a special session last Thursday. Rindskoff Bros., of the Star Clothing House received a large addition to their stock this week. Prof. Sweet will continue to glre his dancing lessons and his social hop every Thursday evening. Mr. Rollo has transferred his fire and marine insurance business to W. II. Daniels. It Is in good hands. The new Wertheimer building to be occupied by Taul Baker as a restaurant is fast approaching completion. Some of our young folks got up a dance at the Spencer House last Monday evening which was well attended. Tuesday night the train did not ar- rive until about nine o'clock. The de lay was caused by the heavy snowstorm. Chas. Nuite was down from his lum ber camp Thursday, and reported having 1,700,000 feet of logs already banked. The Michigan Central pay car was here Tuesday night and made the boys happy. It went back Wednesday morn ing. . II. J. Miner has receutly added a fine show case and rearranged his clothing, thereby much improving the appear ance of his store. Tiie railway mail service on tho D. M. & M. R. R. will probably end all trouble our friends across the straits have in se curing their mall promptly. I. E. DeGowin, the east side grocer, has something to say in our advertising column this week that will interest all wanting groceries. Prof. Chamberlin announces in an other column that he will give instruc tions in vocal and instrumental music. He is well recommended as a musician. A. W. Rush the architect and builder of Lowell, Mich., who was here looking over the town a few weeks since, writes us that he expects to arrive here about the first of April. The first winter term of court held in Mackinac county commenced this week Tuescfay. There Is qulto a large calen dar and it is likely that the court will bo in session two weeks or more. Joe Miller, the young man who tried to play a sharp game on the firemen at their ball last week, had his trial before Justice Fife Monday and was fined $15 and costs amounting to $25. A pretty costly experiment for him. The extreme warm weather last week had the effect of sending a great many men out of tho woods. The change has had the effect of sending them back again, and the starting up of lumbering operations with renewed vigor. Washington's birth day was not ob served here to any very alarming ex tent. The only emblem shown was the stars and stripes over the Tribune office and that caused so many questions to be asked that we concluded that nearly every one in town came from Canada. The new building which Mr. Patter son contemplates erecting will have 47 feet front on Main street by 70 feet deep, thus making two fine store rooms with a wide stairway entrance to tho second story. Mr. Patterson has not decided positively whether he will put the third story on or not. The Presque Isle Advance says that turveyors have been in that county for some weeks past estimating the cost of coistruction in extending the shore railroad to the straits. The road is bound to come through and the sooner it comes the better it will be for the prosperity of Northern Michigan. W. E. Warriner has purchased of C. S. Fisher two thirds of the steamer Kewee naw, and is having a new main deck put on her. He will also have a new captain command her, Capt. Chamber lain. We are satisfied from an acquaint ance of several years with Capt. Cham berlain that he will form many friends on his new route. Major Clarke of the Schoolcraft County Pioneer rises up and meekly asks that Schoolcraft county have the privilege of presenting the next candidate to the state Legislature. Now Major, we have not the slightest objection. We think that you would look well among the law makers, but how can you think of so lowering the dignity of the profession. It is announced that the Western Union Telegraph Company is putting up wires to Cheboygan along the Mackinac Division of the Michigan Central rail road, and when this is. done, will take down the shore line between Alpena and Cheboygan. Would it not be a good plan for: the towns of Alpena, Che boygan and intermediate points to pur chase the line as it stands 'and use it for a telephone line? Banker's Daughter at Town Hall, Mon day night. , We neglected to call attention to the new advertisement of H.'Chambor's last week, but we suppose everybody read it all the same. Thurlow Wreed, who recently opened a general store in Pattersonville, we are pleased to learn is doing a good busi ness, which is as it should be. J. S. Douglass has been appointed deptuty county surveyor. This will be a very great convienence to those residing in or near the village who need the ser vices of a surveyor. An unusually good time was enjoyed by those who attended the social given by the ladies of the M. E. congregation at the residence of Mrs. Hamilton, last Wednesday evening. The contract made by tho Board of water commissioners with Mr. Walker for two pumps tho particulars of which was given last week, was ratified by the village council Tuesday night. A white and black bear paraded the streets several days during the week much to the amusement of tho small boys. The bears ha ye been so long in tho business that they know their tricks well. Capt James Bennett, late master of the tug J. W. Bennett, will sail the tug Johnson, of Sandusky, Ohio, and tow barges. Wm. Fells formerly engineer on the tug W. S. Carkln is to be his en gineer. Prof. H. Box Brown gave a sllght-of-hand, legerdemain, animal magnetism, electro biology, etc, entertainment at the Town Hall last night to a pretty good sized crowd. He goes from here to St. Ignace. The Lotus Club's dance last Tuesday night was the last before Lent, but so enjoyable have they been that the mem bers could not think of giving them up entirely so decided to have them every other week during Lent. It is rumored in Detroit that one of the fast steamers owned by tho Detroit and Cleveland steamboat campauy will run the coming season between Detroit and St. Ignace calling at Cheboygan and Mackinac and make two trips per week. . Wednesday last Mrt. M. Chandler re ceived a telegram stating that her broth er; Morris Shaw, was very ill of pneu monia, at Ann Arbor where he was at tending school. She left on the Thurs day morning's train to go and care for him. We understand that L. P. Trempe, of the Sault, is negotiating for the pur chase of the steamer Gazelle to run in connection with the St. Marie. The statement published that he had pur chased the Grace Grummond is not true, as yet at least. Railroad mail service is announced on and after February 25th from St. Ignace to Marquette six times a week and at the intermediate stations of No. 1 Kilns, Mo ran, Palms, No. 2 Kilns, Trout Lake, Hen drle,J unction, Seny, Driggs, Jeromevllle, Munising, Au Train, Rock River, Onota, Dart, Whitefield, Sand River, and Harvey. The Standard Comedy company, which is well spoken of by the state press, will commence an engagement at the Town Hall next Monday evening with the play entitled. Banker's daughter, andf or Tues day evening, Hazel Kirke is announced. They will probably remain two Bights longer if they meet with sufficient en couragement the first two nights. Miss Genevieve F. Sawtelle and Miss Elma Cornell are tho leading ladies of the troupe. Last Saturday evening as Mr. Henry DeGowin was returning from Duncan City a man stopped his horso by seizing him by the bits and sta rted for the sleigh. Mr. DeGowin got out of the sleigh on the opposite side and started around the horse to meet the man. When they met the stranger attempted to seize Mr. D. by the throat and said "now I've got you. That was when he made a mis take for Mr. D. hit him a blow between the eyes and gave him a kick at the same time which landed him in the ditch and would have secured worse pun ishment only for the fact that the horse had not stopped and he was obliged to go on to catch him, Mr. DeGowin does not know what motive the man had iu attacking him, whether it was for robbery or that he made a mistake and attacked the wrong man. We notice that the state Republican press with great unaminlty are mention ing the name of Auditor General Lati mer for a renomination. We know that the precedent established in this state is that of two terms for stato officials, but this rule has been broken over several times in tho cases of officials who have given more than satisfaction in the con duct of their offices. If the rule is to be passed over we do not know of any one who more richly deserves tho compli ment than Mr. Latimer. We should press the matter more strongly, if the salary of the office was such that it would be a benefit rather than a detri ment to a man to accept the place. How ever if Mr. Latimer would accept tho place, the people of the state could not serve themselves better than to nomi nate and elect him.

Arthur Byrnes left last Saturday morning for Montreal where he would spend a week or so visiting sisters liv ing there and then go on to his old home for a short visit.
