its occurrence. No tidings then, Of

departure, but still no anxiety was
felt on that account, or fears enter.
tanned for her safety, as it was sup
posed by everyone that she had
arrived at her destination all right
hence, the intelligence fell like a
thunderbolt upon the unsuspecting
relatives and friends of the untor-
tunate crew.
The accounts of the sad affair, at
best, are very meagre and also con-
flicting.
The Stranger left Superior a week
ago last Saturday afternoon, with
a crew of four men-Ike n. Clark,
George Coburn, Joe Cadotte aud
jimmie LaFave-and after going to
Duluth to make some addition to
her cargo, lett that place at 10
o'clock in the evening, bound for
Grand Marais, the wind at the time
blowing very strong, but in favor
able direction, being nearly behind
her. According to best accounts,
she arrived at Grand Marais the
following day Sunday at 2 P. NJ,
having thus made tie lO8 miles in
the quick time (for herr Of sixteen
hours-an average of seven miles
an hour.
At
GRAND MARAIs
there are two bays, and in order to
assist the reader to a better under
standing OF the information which
follows, We have prepared

South

which, though not correct in every
particular, is still complete enough
to give the reader a very correct
idea OF that locality, the black space
representing land and the white
space water.
At the time the Stranger arrived
off Grand Marais, as understand,
q heavy southwest sea was driving
into bay No. the bay which is
nearly inclosed by land, and which
was the first one entered by the
Stranger while the wind came from
the northcest, thereby creating a
heavy crOss-sea, III which it was
impossible for the vessel to remain
without being driven ashore, and
SO her crew concluded to take her
around into the other bay, where
would be afforded better protection
from the wind and calmer water.
In endeavoring to accomplish
this purpose, however, the vessel
was wrecked on a reef, the location
of which is indicated on the map
by the black spot at the end of one
Of the points, the reef, be it under
stood, being several feet under
water.
AS to the further particulars OF
the disaster, they are very well
told in the following letters, the
first two being from L. Mayhem to
Il. 6. Coburn, Esq, and Judge
Thos. Clark, respectively, whose
sons were on board the Stranger,
and the third from Gilbert gener-
ally known here as George Falk-
ner Falconer to Capt. }. j. Hib-
bard, of Duluth:
LETTER TO r. q. COBURN.
GRAND MARAIs, Mimi,
Dec. 18th, 1875.
r @. Co6ure, Esq.,.
DEAR SIR.-Ere this reaches you
The Superior times. [volume] (Superior, Wis.) 1870-1912, 1875-12-23

you will probably learn of the loss
Of the Schooner Stranger, wrecked
OFF this place, yesterday Sunday
about 3. P. M.
The worst, however, remains to
be told as it is feared that all
on board have persisted.
She came in sight about 2. P. NJ,
sailing lively, and was soon in the
Bay in front OF the house, but a
fearful wind from the northwest
together with a heavy cross south
west sea made them conclude it
would be better to go around into
the other Bay.
| She got around in good shape and
in rather still water, but they ap-
peared dissatisfied with her posi-
ton and were making another tack,
when for some unknown cause | for
she had plenty of room and calm
water ran on to rock on the
point. She was soon, however,
lifted off by the sea and backed
out into deep water again, appar-
entity but little injured, and getting
nicely under way, trying to get
back into the Bay, when suddenly
she became helpless and drifting
out, soon going over on her side,
the men for moment disappearing
but soon were seen on her.
By cutting away her masrs she
soon righted, the men getting on
deck again.
As soon as it was known that ohe
vessel was in danger, a fishing boat
With six men, went out, hoping to
be able to take the men off, but in
consequence of the high wind and
sea they were unable to render any
assistance. They got within eight
feet of her, threw a line but it fell
short and failed in its object of
mercy. They wers- immediately
driven away from the wreck by a
gust Of wind, and were, unable to
return to it, having all that they
could do to save their own lives,
The wreck was last seen at 5 P. NJ.
about four miles from shore, with
the three men on board.

vessel low IN the water, tits scarcely

Full Particulars Of the Sad Affair.
We have seldom seen so deep a
gloom cast over place or a COM
munity so saddened as was this
on receipt of the sad and
startling intelligence Monday
afternoon of the loss of the
schooner Stranger, of this place,
with all on board.
THE FIRST IMPORTATION
arrived here early in the afternoon,
and the news spreading like wild
fire, soon small knots of people
gathered here and there to converse
upon the all-absorbing topic, eager
to learn the particulars OF the sad
affair, and to express their sorrow
for the lost ones and sympathy tor
the hereaved.
THE DISASTER

Lippincotfs Magazine deserves high credit
for its excellence. 1t honors its own city, and
the Middle States, and testhes that all literary
culture does not dwell east Of the Hudson. A
Boston criticism lying before us cheerfully wit
nesses that. since its establishment 1t ''has
been one of the best in the country, both as re-
CARDS the high quality of its literary contents
and the beauty of its appearance" In this JAM
uary number, the series OF papers designed as a
record Of the Centennial exhibition is begun,
the first article giving an account Of the gener-
al progress of the past century which while it
may seem somewhat hackneyed theme to some,
ia really fresh and unexhausted to the mass Of
readers. few magazine articles cannot use
it up. Other notable contents Of the
January number are Mr.. Bruces third

its predecessors, handsomely illustrated ; po-

THE CENTENNIAL AND CONGRESS

The visit of the President and Members OF
Congress to the Centennial grounds appears to
have been pleasant affair in all respects. The
accounts given Of it are uniformly enthusiastic,
and though the weather was cold, the feeling
created seems to have been one OF warm inter-
est. The speech of Mr.. Bulltt, in which he
showed that the enterprise WAS truly nationals
that the civilized nations Of the world are inter
ested and actively preparing for immense dis
plays of their products; and that OF the subscrp-
tions and appropriations thus far made, now
amounting to s5, 1871, $780,. about nine-tenths have
been contributed by Philadelphia, the State OF
Pennsylvania, aud their citizens all these
statements of fact had an awakening influence
IN the minds Of the visitors.
The impression msde,it is to be hoped, is euf
Hciently favorable to insure the prompt appro-
pristion by Congress Of the money needed te
complete the erection Of the buildings. The
country at large has contributed little or nsth
ing, and the best and most equitable way for il
to contribute, now, is from the common purse
in which all classes have an equal share Of inter
sat. The action of Congress, il taken at all
should be taken promptly, as no doubt 1t will be
SO that the managers may know what they ar
TO expect, and how they may proceed.
