MISPLACED CONFIDENCE.

The Editor of this PAPER Deceived
In a. "DeUU 81 COrater on
Newspapers.
1t may be strange confession to make
but we are compelled, in honesty, to
confess it. Our confiding nature has
been imposed upon. We have been de-
ceived in :. devil" Doubtless there are
those who will say, uncharitably, that il
is good enough for us, that we should
have placed no reliance in his satanic
majesty. Allow us to explain. A" devil y
is necessity in every well-regulated
printing office. Some of these person
ages follow so closely in the footsteps OF
their illustrious namesake, that the name
seems peculiarly applicable, while there
are others who do not, and the name has
no peculiar fitness for them and carries
mo reproach with it. We would not
have mentioned the manner in which we
had been deceived by such a parsonage,
had the deception not affected the citi-
zens of the town more than ourselves.
Last week we printed an extra large edi-
ton Of the NORTHERN TRIBUNE, and
arranged to have them distributed free
all over the village. The aforementioned
"devil was directed to distribute the
papers and instructed in the most posi-
tive manner not to receive pay for the
papers under any circumstances what
ever. The papers went out and the re-
port came back that they had been dis
tributed. according to directions. We
then passed Sunday in that state of COM
posure which always come to those who
feel satisfied with the results of the la
bors of the week. We thought of the
many families who were enjoying the
reading of the long looked for paper.
Monday morning a change came over the
spirit of our dreams. There was gem
elal call at the office for papers. Parties
on the routes supposed to be supplied had
not seen the paper. We could not un-
derstand it. We therefore went out on
an interviewing expedition. We soon
ascertained that our "devil," i'm company
with two or three other lads, had en-
tered into conspiracy and got up a
"corner " on newspapers. The demand
was great, and under the skillful manipu-
laticns of the conspirators the market
experienced sudden change with rapid
upward tendency. Having secured the
control of nearly the entire stock upon
the market they were masters Of the sit
uation. Within an hour the price of pa
pers had advanced from nothing to five
cents per copy. The combination then
commenced to unload, and so skillfully
did they manage it that the whole stock
was disposed of at the figures named.
AS usual in combinations and corners
upon larger scale, the loss fell princi-
pally upon innocent parties. However,
the end came. Monday night the con-
spiracy was discovered and exposed.
Considering that our "devil had learned
so much of the ''art preservative'' in so
short time, he was retired from the
business. This will probably explain
why so few of the papers reached their
destination on Saturday.

LAST NIGHTS BALL.-The arrange
ments which have been under way dur
ing the pest week for social ball at Wer-
theimer's Hall, terminated last evening in
one of the most pleasant dances held here
for some time. The weather was all that
could be asked for,and the attendance was
quite large. The music was exceedingly
good and all present seemed to enjoy
themselves. The festivities were kept up
until a late hour wnen the participants
departed, hoping that an occasion would
soon offer for similar entertainment.

DROWNED.

a Little Son of Malcolm McDon-
aid DrosCned IN the River on
Tuesday.
The first sad accident that we have
been compelled to record occurred on
Tuesday Of this week. Johnny, little
son Of Mr.. Malcolm Mcdonald. manager
OF Smiths saw mills, aged five years, was
accidentally drowned in the river near
the mill. The particulars of the sad
event, as near as we can learn them, are
as follows:
On the morning of the day mentioned
the little fellow started for school as
usual. When on the way he met couple
of playmates, who persuaded him to 90
with them up the river to the ruins of
the old Catholic Church for the purpose
of gathering berries. After gathering
what berries they wished they started
for home, and thinking to gain time by
crossing the bay above Strohn s. Nelson's
mill, used by Macarthur, Smith & Co. to
store logs, it was proposed by the older
boys to cross upon the logs. This little
Johnny did not wish to do and strongly
objected to it, but the older boys urged
him and finally took him by the hand
and led him upon the logs. They had
succeeded in nearly getting across when
all three fell into the water. The older
boy could swim and succeeded in rescu-
ing his companion, but little Johnny was
drowned before assistance could be Sc
cured. The body was recovered by Mr..
VIM. BOggs, but not until it had been i'm
the water upwards of half an hour, thus
rendering all efforts at resusitation in
vain. The funeral was held on Wednes-
day afternoon. The parents have the
sympathy of the entire community in
their sudden and sad bereavement.

Mr.. M. w. Horne came near meeting
with serious accident last Monday, and
as it was, he was considerably injured.
He WIS engaged in hauling hay with a
one-horse wagon, and was leading the
horse past the corner of the barn. Going
too close. he was caught between the end
of one of the shafts and the corner of the
barn and considerably bruised about
the head and face, while his back where
it was struck by the shaft was badly in
jured. Mr.. Horne has been around town
since but is quite stiff.

Mr.. c. j. Hunt who recently occupied
the position Of foreman Of the NORTH
ERIN TRIBUNE has been compelled to re-
linquish the position and return to Adri-
an. He has by his curteous bearing and
accommodating manners in the short
time that he has been here, made many
friends who hope he may be enabled to
return again before many months.

ALMOST A FIRE.-The alarm of fire on
Thursday morning of this week was
caused by the taking fire of Perry &
Watson's machine shop and foundry.
The fire apparently first caught around
the smoke stack, and before it was dis
Dissolved the roof of the engine house was
nearly destroyed. Those present and
near at hand succeeded in checking it
before it was fairly under way. 1t is
probable that only this prompt action and
early discovery prevented very disas-
trous fire, as the close proximity of the
dwellings Of Mr.. Todd and Mr.. Bunker
would certainly have brought them a
prey to the devouring element in which
case with the wind in the direction it
was, it would have been almost impossi-
BILE to have saved the planning mill of Mr..
Kemp, Mr.. Clark's blacksmith's shop, or
the foundry and machine shop of III. A.
Blake. Thus it is again, that;this place
has proyidentially escaped heavy loss
from fire. The day previous the same
building caught from spark from the
smoke stack, but was extinguished with
out loss. The damage in this case was
very slight. There was no effort made.
as far as we could learn, to take the fire
engine to the fire. Whether the engine
was in condition to have been Of any
service had it been taken, is question
for our city fathers to answer. As soon as
the alarm was given an immense crowd
rushed to the scene of the fire, but not one
of them had pail or anything that
would have been Of any assistance in
putting out fire. What the result would
have been had the fire got good start
may be easily imagined, when weremem-
Der that the buildings adjoining are
wooden ones, and surrounded by large
quantities of dry lumber, shavings, &c.
Does the village need a greater warning
| than this? @

TRed Cloud, Sept. 21.-Cuntrary to
expectation last night, no council was
held to-day, chiefly on account of this
being the day beef is issued, the
Indians who kill it themselves. AS
nearly all the Indians attending the
council draw rations here, they en-
ployes at this Agency have been very
busy yesterday and to-day. 1t is
hardly probable that the proposition
to lease the Black Hills country
will be accepted. The Indians
themselves do not look favorabIy
upon it, and the squaw men are using
all their influence agaidst it. The
council is to be resumed at ten o'clock
tomorrow morning.

Chicago, Sept. PA Washington
special says that one of the worst
chapters in the history of this badly
governed District, is the recent ex-
posure OF the corrupt management of
the local courts. The Attorney Gen
er,d is doing all in his power to re-
form the evil practices of the courts,
and if given time will bring them up
once more TO the level of respecta-
hility. Some of the friends of young
Fisher visited Mr.. Pierrepont and
tried to persuade him to show some
leniency in the young mans case.
lie, in reply, stated that Fisher must
be prosecuted tn the all extent of the
law. That while the young mans
social position entitled his father to
the fullest sympathy, all considera-
tions of this kind would have to he
foregone with the view of making
an example of a public officer who
would so wantonly prostitute an off,
cial position. The case is now before
grand jury. In the present state of
public opinion nothing but sentence
to the penitentiary will satisfy the
citizens here that the EX-Assistant
District Attorney has received jus
tice.
