One of the first matters which should
occupy the attention of the Cheboygan
Improvement Association, is that of IN
land navigation. Although much has been
done by individuals, and the project is in
fair way to secure state aid to make the
route nayigahIe, yet there is much to do
to make the route an assured success.
There must be a line of fast boats put up
ont the route. We hearit said, ''that there
will be no difficulty about boats; get the
route opened and the boats will come.
The investment will be profitable one
and there will be many to embrace the OPP
portunity." 1t will not do to depend up
on this. The risk is too great. Because a
few of the people here who have made
the subject a study, feel convinced that
this is true, it cannot be expected that
strangers will, with a casual glance on
their part. without assistance or influence
on ours, see the matter as we do. Then
again the mere fact of having boats is not
sufficient, they must be in the hands of
the proper persons. That boats can be
got,upOn the route as soon as completed
we have no doubt, if the association take
the matter in hand and act promptly
There is any quantity of capital in the
country awaiting investment. What that
capital wants to know, is the certainty
with which it will receive returns. This
information can be satisfactorily given,
and it is the province of the association to
find the proper parties to whom, this in
formation shall be given. In this there
is no time to be lost. There are other
matters connected with this scheme for
internal Improvement that the influence
of the association can be used advantage
ously. The appropriation by the state is
not made vet, and the fact that doubtful
things are many times uncertain is an in
dication that those interested i'm the work
should not relax their labors until assur-
ance is made doubly sure by the Board
of Control granting aid sufficient to COM
plete the work. When this is done the
associationmay take up the next most inn
portant matter, for we hold that this is
the most important project for the whole
northern part of the state that has ever
enlisted the aid of its residents. Its BEN
efits will not only be felt i'm the north but
In a proportional degree throughout the
whole state. - - -

A GRAND RAPIDS husband remarked
to his wife, Monday, that he had made up
his mind to shoot himself, but when she
kindly went and brought him the gun the
ungrateful brute positively refused to use
at At least the Democrat says he did, and
we really don't see why Grand Rapids
husband can't do anything that has been
already done in other cities without hay
ing his originality called in question.

THE corpse of the Catholic printer.
Guibord, was at last buried in the GENE
terry of his church at Montreal on Tuesday.
A military force Of over 1000 men was
called out, the coffin was conveyed under
an escort from the Protestant cemetery
to its proper place in the Catholic ceme-
terry, the grave was completely filled
with cement, and a guard placed around
it until it hardened. No opposition was
shown excepting the sncers and rowdy-
ism of a few rOughs. The Roman priest
hood had very wisely advised their peo-
pie to keep quiet. There is great doubt
whether the bishop can make the curse
Oh this grave stick while he holds on to
the money that he took for it as conse-
Grated ground. La

In Methodist church near Hartford,
Conn, last Sunday evening, ayoung man
named Curtis undertook to leave the
meeting, when Elder Risley collared, him
and told him he couldn't 60. Curtis
struck him In the face, the boys shouted:
the pastor LEFT the pulpit and tried to quiz
ct the disturbance. Finally Curtis was
compelled to take a seat and a justice OF

upon an Immediate TRIAL, and tried in
vain to clear the house for the purpose.
So the trial was postponed. 1t was a
queer performance Attendants on that
church must act like peace: sthsy prz1st

Great Popularity.

DIR, Prices Cream Baking Powder
and True Flavoring Extracts, Necta-
rine, Rose, Lemon, etc., have been be-
fore the public many years, and have
gained for themselves, on their own
merits, an extensive sale. Their great
popularity is mainly due to the sorupu-
lous manner in which they are prepar-
ed, the using of the purest and best
materials, with special reference to
their healthfulness. We never tire of
using them for they are always the
same. Articles IN which they are used
have no disagreeable odor or sickly
taste, but are always enjoyable.

Captain w. f. Morton was wounded
yesterday while in the discharge
of his duty. BY thisunfortunate affair
Dallas will for time be deprived of
her most efficient officer, and one
whose services she can lily dispense
with. Under the circumstances, OF
course the Council can take no action
OH the resolution affecting Captain
Morton's position, unless it be to lay
it permanently on the table. He has
family dependent upon him for sup
port, and the Council will but reflect
the wishes of the citizens OF Dallas in
retaining him in his position, at least
until he thoroughly RECEIVERS from his
wound.

ANOTHER pLEA For HEMP
Dnstnrdly and COid-BiOOded
Murder In the Heart
OF the CITY.
One Man Killed and Another
Dangerously Wounded.

AHOlucT VI lllpsc HlObu-tiIIlAoy anu
cruel murders, which are becoming far
too common in our midst, took place
yesterday on Main street, few
doors west of the lamar House. The
particulars of the affair, US CLEANED
from the participants and eye witness
"a, are about as follows:
This morning about II O'clock
u carpenter named Frank Mar
tin, alias California Frank,
became involved in n quar-
rel with Mr.. II. Misselhorn, proprietor
of small saloon, few doors west of
the Lamar. Martin, who was bolster
Gus and abusive in his language, was
arrested and placed In the calaboose,
but soon gave bond and was released.
Aiming himself with siX-sh0oter, he
proceeded to Mlsselhorns saloon, and
entering, remarked "Iou id SON
ofa.b--h, you had me arrested, and
now I'll give it to YOU" and without
any further prelminaries, commenced
firing. The first shot struck Missel-
horn in the upper part of the
right hip and was cut
out in the left side of the abdomen.
The second shot struck him In the
right shoulder, ranging into the cavity
of the chest. After firing the two
shots Martin walked.toward the door
and was met by Captain W. f. Nor
ton, Deputy City Marshal, who has
the knack OF always being around and
attending to his business. Morton
laid his hand ON Martins shoulder,
who still held his pistol in his hand,
aud remarked "Iou are my prisoner. "
Martin jumped back and replied;
"Captnin, don't want to kill you; but
don't touch me; stand back" Morton
remarked that he could not help
1t, but he must arrest him. Martin
again replied that he did not want ia
kill him, ut the same time stepping
back and cooking his pistol. Morton
made \ step toward him when Martin
leveled the pistol and was in the act o
firing when Morton graspcd the weap
, ON and turned it downward, receiving
the ball IN the groin which would other
/ wise unquestionably have pierced his
. breast. Morton then closed with an,
held him until the arrival of a police
man or two, to whom he was turnst
over and lodged in Jail. Subse
quently, Major Barkley took POSSES
sion of the prisoner, and transierre,
, him to the county Jail.
) Drs. Thruston, Newsome and Early
ministered to thewound orCapt. Morton
which, though very painful, Is not con
sidered dangerous. A reporter visited
: him at . o'clock and found him resting
+ quite easily. Drs. Pope and Lock,
) probed aud dressed the wounds of Mr.
Msselhorn. Up to the hour of going
to press all was icing done for the un
fortunate man that skill and attention
, could devise, with but the iaintes
: hopes of any permanent relief, as hi
demise was hourly looked for.
