Adrin at Sea.

From the Day City Tribune JAN 18th.
At the time the Essexville fisher
man and his son were swept out t.
sea on the drifting ice last week, i
was supposed that all their com
panions had reached shore in salty
This, however, was not the case
four others having been swept Out
at the same time.
1t appears that on Thursday
evening It was discovered by the
the men in the city on the bay thai
ice had broken and was beginning
to move out, whereupon the alarm
of call ashore" was sounded. Those
who heard the cry rushed for the
crack and passed it in salty, but
some others were inside their shan
ties and no warning of danger
reached their ears. Among the
latter were Benjamin LaLonde and
Henry - of Banks, and Hen.
ry Miller, and young man named
Benson, of this city, who were car
ried out into the bay. They were
about one mile out from the light
house at the time of the break, but
the next morning found them seve-
raj miles away. They drifted here
and there all day Friday and Fri
day night, the ice being so rotten
as to prohibit any attempt to reach
shore. On Saturday, however,
when 10 miles off Big Creek, an
effort was made to cross the ice,
but it was still 80 weak that La
Londe broke through. He reach
ed out his elbows, however, over
the ice, and thus held himself while
his companions endeavored as faith
fully as ever men did to rescue
him. But every effort was follow.
ed by a failure. At every step
they made toward him the ice
broke under their feet and they
were compelled to cease. Then
they endeavored to reach their
spears to the poor fellow, but in
this they also failed. At the end of
half hour LaLonde's strength
failed, and he saw that death was
inevitable. So shouting "take
care of my wife and children" he
mustered strength enough to raise
his hand to his head and taking of
his hat waved it once, said "good
bye, boys" and sunk forever into
the blue waters of Saginaw Bay.
1t was sad scene, but the three
survivors had done all mortals
could do. And once more they
started off ON their voyage, Won
dering how soon ere their doom
would come. They walked toward
the Charities, (about 80 miles off)
and were beginning to entertain
hopes of reaching the island in safe
ty when they we're disappointed to
behold in front of them, clear wa
ter. To go further in this direc-
ton was useless and they accord
ingly started off at right angle to-
ward the east shore. Night put an
end to their journey, but on Sun
day morning 1t was resumed, and
after passing over ten miles of ice,
which cracked and broke beneath
them at every step, they finally put
foot on terra firma one mile from
Caseville, whence they walked to
Bay City, arriving here late in the
day.
The weather being warm, they
suffered none from the cold, but
once or twice felt the need of q
good square meal, although we be-
lieve they had some few estahle:
with them during the entire voy'
aye. r-rrf ttrr.t

pretty fair. Now our lumbermen
are in much better spirits over the
prospects Of getting in fair crop
of logs. However, it will not be a
wise movement to put in too many
logs, and thus overreach the capa-
city of the mills, so that when nav
igation closes logs and lumber may
be cleared from docks and river.

WINE ASD Watch.

A story is told OF two well.known
merchants of this city, one Of whom has
quite reputation as connoIsseur IN
matters OF taste. Dining at the others
table, the latter was particularly request
cd to taste OF very choice wlue which
the host sent him, aud give his opinion.
The man Of taste slipped from his glass,
set II down, aud resumed conversation
with his next neighbor at the board. The
host, observing this, took the first oppor-
tnuity of challenging his guest for m
opinion, with sly look at some friends
AS II he was bound TO show how fallacious
were judgments IN wine tasting.
Say, my dear Beeswing, you don't tell
me what You think Of the wine sent
you,
Beeswing looked at the glass without
raising Il, and quietly said, no.
Well, now, said the host, wish you
would really give me your honest opin-
ion of that wine, Beeswing.
Excuse me, said the other, deprecatng-
ly, ia rather not.
By this time the attention Of the whole
table was directed to the dialogue. But
| insist, urged the host; for You have
such a reputation for taste want your
opinion now and on this wine,
1t will hardly be courteous, said Bees
wing, TO give an honest opinion OF the
wine while partaking of the hospitalities
OF the host.
Certainly It will; out with It, Bees
wing we are all friends here. Splendid
article-ehI
The wine may be good, but II is wa
tered.
What, said the host, reddening TO the
roots of his hair at this unexpected reply.
Watered? You're mistaken; taste II
again.
Yes, watered, said Beeswing, taking
another sip aud setting his glass down
upon the table.
Well, now, look here, Beeswlng, my
boy, for once in your life you are mista-
kew, for my father bought two casks OF
that wine abroad; il came home in the
same ship with him; 1t was nnloaded
opposite bis warehouse on India wharf
under his eye; and boisted il up into a
4 loft over bis own countiug-room, where
after few months rpening be had .

supervision; he then sent IL mp TO his
own cellar, which since his decease has
come into my possession, and bis wsx

tonight SO acknowledge, my dear
Beeswing, that you are mistaken about
its being watered vine,
Can't acknowledge anolhiua OF ibc
kind, said TIE obstinate Beeswinl, fur

that wine very eell. Charley Van Blanc
