We understand from Mr.. Angus Nc
Kay that space has been secured at the
Centennial Exposition for exhibiting the
patent car coupler, of which he and
Messrs. McKervey and Ramsay own the
patent, They are having two small mod
els of cars built on an exact scale which
will be fitted with the patent coupler,
and be used for exhibition at the cxposi-
ton. Mr.. Mckay is very much eneour-
aged over the prospects of the invention
being a success. He showed it to many
OF leading railroad men of the country,
and it was universally acknowledged by
all to be the best coupler yet before the
public. The patent will be presented to
meeting of the leading railroad men in
the interest OF the Pennsylvania Central
railroad and its connections sometime
during the present month. Mr.. McKer-
vsy Is now i'm Detroit experimenting the
construction Of the car models and coup
Ter. We understand that outside parties
with abundant means have become inter-
esred in the patent.

The Church. Embroglio.

Since the issue Of the TRIBUNE last
week, matters In the Catholic church have
QUOTED down somewhat. In another
column We give space to a communica-
ton giving Father DeCeuninck's version
of the affair. The account we gave last
week, hurriedly gathered, as the facts
were compelled to be. were not strictly
accurate in regard to the particulars,
although in the main correct. The priest
claims that his enemies drew a revolver
upon him first, and he acted only in self
defence. while the other side claim just as
emphatically that the reverend father
was the first aggressor. The truth will
probably be developed in court.
Father DeCeuninck was arrested Sat
urday afternoon upon a warrant sworn
out by Frank Osier, charged with assault
with intent to kill and murder. He
waived examination, and was bound over
for trial in the circuit court in the sum
Of $500.
The church has been locked up by the
congregation, and will probably remain
so until the Bishop makes some change
in the pastorate.
Northern tribune. [volume] (Cheboygan, Mich.) 1875-1885, 1876-04-08
Short of Supplies.

We learn from G.. w. Farr that Alpe-
ma is growing short Of provisions, and
that unless navigation soon opens the
citizens in great many cases will have
to subsist on short rations. Thunder Bay
is full of ice, and the prospect Of imme-
date relief is not very encouraging. 1t
is understood that boats are ready to
start with abundant supplies as soon as
there Is any possible chance for their
making that port. Since the storm the
early part of the week the weather ap-
pears mole propilious for an opening OF
navigation on the great national high
way of the northwest. Doubtless other
places beside Alpena will be rejoiced to
see the boats resume their regular routes

Being Waited Upon.

There is at present one man anguish
ing in the county bastile. He has been
there since Tuesday, when he became
somewhat elevated in spirit. Just how
it came about We are not exactly informed,
but he and friend had little set-to in
front Of Hayes blacksmith shop, which
resulted in both being rolled in the snow,
and he getting into the han'ls Of the
sheriff, who took him to Jail. The next
morning he appeared before Justice SUIT
ton and pleaded poverty until he secured
that gentleman's sympathy to such an
extent, that he was told that he could re-
main in his present quarters and have his
board furnished for ten days. Such gen.
crosby was appreciated and was accepted
therefore he languishes and is being
waited upon.

The Horse Association.

The largest stockholders of the Horse
association, during the past few days,
have been perfecting plan by which the
association could be reorganized and bust
ness got into shape for the early compile
ton of the track upon the grounds owned
by them. We are glad to say that the
