-County-Clerk Cournoyer, ex-
County Clerk Relf and Col Hiram Hayes,
who went down to Madison last week to tell
before the U. S. Court what they know about
the $3.50 of Douglas County bonds held by
Walbridge, Bro and Sargent, returned the
there is not much doubt but what the County
will recover the bonds.
Dom Pedro, owing to the time
consumed in his visit to California and other
places, was obliged to give up his visit to SUI
peror. We understand, however, that friend
Mitchell, of the Tribune, who is said to great
ly resemble the DOM will be over in day or
two. 1t is not known whether Mr.. NJ. is
coming over to make arrangements to move
his power-press over and start daily paper,
or to consolidate with the TINES, or some
thing else But we guess it is-something
else.
From a letter in the Ashland
Press from Rev. |. Baird, we learn that the
Government dwelling house at Odanah, oc-
cupied by VIM. G. Walker, Esq, the Gov
eminent Farmer, was DESTROY ed by fire on
Tuesday, April 25th. No lives were lost,
and through the efforts of the villagers
most of the effects of the house were saved.
Mr.. Walker has moved into the house former
ly occupied by Rev. L. H. Wheeler the
farm around which Mr.. Walker bought last
winter. From the same source we learn that
Bad River has been unusually high this
spring
Under the efficient management
of Captain Edwards and his worthy assist
ants ice Tourville and Ed England, the steam
ferry. boat Stillman Witt has been put in ex-
celent running order, and is now making
two trips day to Duluth regularly, and is
also at the service Of excursion parties that
may desire its use. That tie running of this
ferry is great accommodation to the people
of Superior and also great advantage to
the place, is unquestioned, and hence our
people should patronize the boat all in their
power, as at the best it will probably not
much more than pay running expenses.
We received, one day this
week, through the post office, long lingo of
Mark Twain-Stylo doggerel relative to local
affairs. Some portions of it are very good
and some are not. Were it ever so merito-
rious, however, we would rot publishit, as
the author neglected to sign his or her real
name, (merely signing the production "Quaire
Reportaire') and one of our rules is to never
publish an article with out knowing the name
of the author. Hence, our advice to "Quaire
Reportairre' is, that hereafter,
"When an article you PREPARE,
Intended for the neWspapaire,
Ere you send it to the editaire,
Be sure and affix your signataire"
SUCCESS UPON MERIT.-If there
is an instance upon the records Of our coun-
try where an article of American manufacture
has made its way to universal favor without
extraneous aid, it is that Of D. B. DeLand & Co.'S
Best Chemical Saeratus. 1t has only to be
sold in one place, and it is demanded in anoth-
er; and so it has gone on increasing in favor
until the products of the extensive Chemical
Works of Fl. A. DeLand & Co., at Fairport,
Monroe County, n. Y, are now immense.
This article is made only at these works by
process known only to the proprietors, and
is better for all purposes than Soda. Try
it.

Fred and Lou Newton, on Sun
day afternoon, gave their mother terrible
fright, caused the village considerable ankle
ty and endeavored to furnish the TINES with
frst-class local item by capszng in the
large sail-boat formerly owned by Geo. Smith
but now owned by Geo. Brooks The bows,
however, came out all right, not even getting
their feet wet, as, when the boat went over,
they climbed upon the side of the boat and
sat there, high and dry, until taken off, about
half an hour AFTER by two boats that went
to their rescue. The boys were on their
way to Duluth to get physician for their
grandmother, Mrs. Dolby, who was very i'll
at the time The cause of the capsize was
lack of ballast in the boat.
