NORTHERN TRIBUNE. JULY 29. 1882. 1 n i r, j w - 1 NORTHERNTRIBUNE. SATURDAY. JULY 29, 1882. Alox S. McDonald has so far recovered that h is able to walk about this week. Two street hawkers sold their wares on the street Saturday night and didn't get "egged." They were the first that have oaped for some tine. Cantaius of crafts coming down re port that they can see the electric light atW. S.Smith's mill for miles up the straits as distinctly as if only a few rods distant. The need of a street-sprinkler was st rongly felt this wek. Our merchants could well afford to pay one for working rather than have the dust fly as it has this week. Messrs. Moore and Grant have the frame up for their new ship chandlery etore. and will soon have it done and ready for business. It is 25x75 and two stories hitch. The Merry Makers returned from their trin to the "Soo," and advertised to ap pear at the Opera House Tuesday night, but on account of the small attendant they did not play. Shipping huckleberries at Indian ri er is unite a business this season. Mr. Martin informs us that he pays out dai ly for them about $2X. I hey art brought in mostly by Indians. The moonlight excursion to Spectack Reef bv the ladies of St. James' church. Tuesday evening, was well attended, 218 tickets being sold, and nil expressed themselvws as having had a good tune. Swimming it all thi rage at present among the small boys. Their principal place is off the new dock running out from Huron street, which isn t quite as exposed as off the main dock which they used to occupy. Mclntyre & Reid's delivery horse got frightened at something on the street, Monday, and, breaking loose from the wacon. went down Main street at a live ly rate, dragging the seat to which the reins were attached. A sort of a one-horse circus opened up hpre Monday, and advertised to remain all the week; but a small attendance of neoDle and a large presence of ripe eggs changed their minds, and they silently stole away Tuesday night. The Rand boys give an excursion and basket picnic to Macinac Island, to-mor row, on the steamer Dove. .. The boat leaves here at 10 o'clock, arrives there about 11, remaining until 4, thus giving all plenty of time to see the sights The chairmen of 'the townshipboards.of school inspectors are required by law to meet at the office of the county clerk on Tuesday next, at 10 o'clock, a. m., for the nurDose of electing a county school ex aminer in the place of Thos. Reutley whose term expires. Chas S. Hampton, editor of the Harbor Snrines Independent delivered a speech at the Opera Housp Wednesday evening on the priniciplei of Greenbackism The attendance was not very large but his address is favorably spoken of by those who were in attendance. It has been thought that Mr. McKen- zle had charge of putting in the pumps and connections at the water works, but the rarn who always means what he says, stat-1 that Mr. Walker, the inventor is the ma i. This will doubtless be a sur prise to Mr. V alker, who we do not be liovo kiu.w- ! is here. The marble works of Fehnan & Wedge is a r.retty busy place at present Thflv li cutting and fitting all the atone toi Fexer's, Paquette's and Post & V , . rsdale's new blocks. Mr. Feehan haf t finished a monument for Jos. B that is a beauty, and consists of different pieces. .. P. Newton, we have no doubt, was mewhat surprised to learn from our contemporary that he was in Detroit last week, arranging for a steam pump for the tug J. W. Bennett. As the pump has been here for several weeks, this shows remarkable enterprise for our neighbor in gathering news. The St. Ignace Spy say their club will soon issue a challenge to the Eure ka here, and at the same time tries to intimidate our boys by informing them that the best playing talent they ever had ain't here now. Well, bring over vour At ones, and you will be apt to fiud enough left to at least keep the Saints interested. A movement to establish a now sum mer resort is thus noted in the Kalama zoo Telegraph of the 25th: "Judge Wells, F.B. Stockbridge.W. H. McCourtie, of this place, and W.

C. R. R.took effect this week, me norm bound train arrives about forty minutes later, and the south bound about thatj much earlier. This arrangement does not bring the mail at quite as conven ient a season for our business men as it did. Yn. that little, hot, and dusty fishing hamlet of St. Ignace is a lively town. We hear of three fellows going into a restaurant for three lemonades, and it only took the proprietor half an hour to get them ready. That is in proportion to the way all business is done. Some roughs stole about $80 from an Indian Thursday and that night the officers arrested one fellow who after getting in the lock-up confessed the crime and implicated four others who had a hearing before a justice yester day. They all plead not guilty and were marched back to jail and will be brought ap again this afternoon.
