Joseph Bourie had a foot badly mash ed at the salt well Wednesday afternoon. They were engaged putting down eight inch iron tubing, and had seven lengths nearly down when it struck and could not be forced down. They commenced putting on the eighth piece of tubing and had it just fairly entered when all at once the tubing dropped suddenly and an iron clamp which was fastened around the tubing caught Mr. Bourie's foot, mashing it very seriously; the whole weight of the tubing, considera bly over a ton,' dropping some eight or ten inches. Mr. Bourie showed remark able fortitude, for not withstandingjthe intense pain, he bore it manfully while they removed the upper piece of tubing, and shifted the rope so as to lift the weight of his foot and relieve it. He even assisted them to adjust the rope. The accident was a very unfortu nate one, as the disabled man has wife and four children to support, and was entirely dependent upon his days labor. He is a steady hard working man, and is deserving of the substantial sympathy of our citizens. The same afternoon Octave Paquette, employed at the water mill, had a thumb disjointed and badly bruised, by a heavy plank falling upon it. Urs. Perrin ren dered surgical aid in both the above cases. Mr. Paquette will be around all right in a few days, but Mr. Bourie is seriously disabled and it will be some time before he will be ablo to work. Alii Correspondence. Allifl. July, 24th. 1882. Our quiet little settlement is bereft by the loss of two beautiful babes by the hand of death: one from the family of John Balonzie an only child, aged four teen months; the other from the family of Royal J. Taylor. Mr. Taylor was at Rogers City on the building committee of the Court House, but, having been sent for, reached home the day before his child died. The neighbors sympathize with the parents in their afflietion. The funeral of the first was conducted by your correspondent, and that of the lat ter by Rev. L. P. Aiken. Mason work on the new brick blocks has progressed finely the past week. The Fire Company held a meeting Friday evening but a quorum not being present no business was transacted. There will be Quarterly Meeting ser vice at tho M. K. church, in Cheboygan, on Sunday, August 0th. Rev. L. P. Dayia of West Bay City will officiate.

Campbell came over from Bay View, via Mackinac, this morning, and will hold service in the Methodist church to-morrow at the usual hours, morning and evening.

Property immediately on the east side of tho corporation is being rapidiy im proved. About seventy-five acres have been chopped and ready to burn by Messrs Gallagher, Gerow and Suther land, who each own adjoining tracts. If this example was followed by other property owners in that neighborhood the surroundings of our town would be in harmony with the many improve ments going on in the corporation. Some time since we gave an order for a new supply of print paper, and it was to have been shipped, according to agree ment, July 15th, but was not.

Much matter in type we are obliged to loavo out for want of room. Last week Stanislaus Treban, of Mun roe township, was arrested by an officer from Petoskey, for stealing a steer in that county, but he proved before a jury that although he took the steer it was under the impression that it was his own,and they accordingly acquitted him. The rumor got afloat that it was a case of kidnapping on the part of Emmett county officials, but such was not the aso as th ey had papers for his arrest. The Chicago Inter Ocean says: Here after Mackinaw will be the summer headquarters of the Chicago Yacht Club fleet, and it is possible that a club house may be erected there.

Teachers' Associa tion. Dress goods at greatly reduced prices at Hempstead's. He Surprised Ilia Father. A Connecticut man is never happy un less he is inventing something. Even the children have a fancy for the busi ness. Last summer a Connecticut farm er's boy visited Barnum's circus and saw the cataputt. It suggested to him a tramp-bouncer to be' set under a man's door-step, and he at once went to work to build oue. As he wanted to surprise his father, he kept tho matter a secret and worked like a beaver up in the hay loft of tho great barn, building the machine- Finally he got it done. It was a magnificent machine, wortapd by a spring capable of throwing one hundred and fifty pounds a distance of thirty feet. This machine he buried in tho hay un til he should be ready to test it. Something possessed his father's hired man to go ud on that hayloft the next day, and he contrived to get right on the foot-board of tho machine, and was slung whirling across the barn into a half -filled bay of hay on the opposite side. Alighting on tho hay saved him from serious injury, but not from sur prise. He didn't expect any such exper ience, and was not at all pleased with it. Neither did he understand it; and asflvo hundred dollars wouldn't have induced him to go on that hayloft again, ho did not find out what threw him, and fear of ridicule prevented his mentioning it. tj That night two tramps tried to sleep in that hayloft, and gave it up as a bad job, after a sad experience. They had crawled into the hay, and were getting themselves fixed, when one got afoul of the machine, and immediately his com panion heard a whiz, a wild yell, and then calls for help from tho other side of the barn. He arose to go to his compan ion, and got there quicker than he ex pected. He found his friend very curi ous to know what tossed him, and some what scared. The way those tramps fled from that barn was a caution. The next day, when all the folks were away on a visit, the lad got the machine down and set it under the front door step. Temporarily, he attached the wire that set it going to the door-bell. When the folks returned, they all stood on the door-step and the old man rang to be let in. With so much weight the machine couldn't throw 'em far, but it rose up enough to dump 'em. The old man was the first to get up. Ho sprang once more on the step and rang violentlv. He wasn't a very big man, and it did seem as though the Lord had put that big snow-drift there, forty feet away, just on purpose to catch him. They got him out, and, filled with terror, went in the back way. There they told the sto ry, and the boy explained, and the old man ran him out and stood him on the machine six times, and he butted that snow-drift all to pieces-, lie will not patent the machine, believing that it is too cruel a thing for these enlightened days. The losses by fire in the United States and Canada for the first six months of the present year are estimated at the enormous sum of $47,700,000. Germany is groaning under the burden of taxation.
