ATTEMPTED BUEGLARY-Late Mon
day night, or early Tuesday morning, an
effort was made to enter the banking
house of L. @. Shove, by one or more
thieves, and for this purpose the back
door of j. D. Markhams law office,
| (Which is in the rear end of the bank
bulldlng) was opened, by the thieves
boring a number of holes through the
panel, cutting out the remainder of the
wood, and then reaching in and turning
the key, which had been left upon the
inside. In the same manner the door
leading from the law office into room
Immediately adjoining Mr.. Shove's pri-
vate office had been opened, and single
hole bored through the only one inter
vening, when the growing of dog i'll
the room frightened the rascals away.
A boy in the employ of Iir. Shove sleeps
IN room adjoining the bank, who says
he heard the thieves mt work and was
prepared to wive them a warm reception
should they have entered the ROOM
The job has the appearance Of having
been executed by a green hand, and had
he gained admittance into the bank he
would have found little to reward him
for his pains, as all the valuables were
IN the safe-which could not have been
tempered with without the noise having
attracted the attention OF some one pass
ing along the street, and it is doubtful
if, had he been undisturbed and sup
piled with the most approved tools, he
could have forced the massive steel doors
and bars which Mr.. Shove places between
his shekels and the marauding burglar.
No clue was found which could be used
in tracing the identity of the operator,
and he is probably in our midst at this
moment. The attempt will have the
effect Of making cur citizens more care
full how they leave their doors unfasten
ed and available plumber lying around
where it could easily be picked up by
the light-fngered fraternity.
n. B.-Since writing the above we
have conversed with Mr.. Shove. He
says that, Judging from the height of
the man who bored the holes, his suspi-
cions rest upon the publisher of the
Pilot, but having told us this in conf
dence, of course we are not at liberty to
say So And it doesn't follow from this
that Ten Eycke is bore on general
principles

Two RIVERS Chronicle says
Mrs. Fleischer is having new resi-
dence put up on Main street, next to
the store of Jos. Schwab. = The first
load of lath of the season was towed
down from the mills at Neshoto by
Cooper & Jones' tug, last Friday. "A
boy living few miles west from
Grimms broke one of his legs by fall,
while spearing fish, one day last week.
DR.. Coakley, of Manitowoc, was sum-
moned, and the broken limb set :. The
new tug was launched and christened at
the ship yard of Hanson & Scove, at
this place, last Saturday, IN the pres
ence of quite O crowd of people. The
tug has been built for MIR. Endress,
who intends using her in connection
with his large fishing business, and is
named the Berthe Endress, after his
daughter. The tug is very handsome
craft, runs smotlly and gracefully, and
bears ever mark of being made by skill
fully and thorough builders. On her
y
Manitowoc, she made excellent time and
was managed with perfect ease. The
spring drive of logs of Cooper & Jones,
of Neshoto, and the Two Rivers Manu-
featuring Co. is over, and the river for
miles above the boom at Neshoto is FL
led with pine logs, ready for sorting
and saving. We walked over mile on
a narrow and slippery boom, the other
day, while at Neshoto, to witness the
process of sorting logs, and, though We
found tie undertaking rather a moist
one, it is well worth the risk one runs to
see the sorting going on and to note the
sharp sparring of the men over log
with an obscure mark; both parties, of
course, claiming it for their respective
firms. Boththe mills at Neshoto and at this
place will be In operation in a short
time. and should the lumber market be
favorable there will be lively times on
the river during the coming summer.

THE attendance at theCentenL ial Sup
per, last Friday evening, was SO much
larger than expected that the Hall in
Richards block was actually filed to
overfowing. The entertainment con-
sisted of a supper prepared after the
style of one hundred years ago, and was
partaken of from old-faslioned, highly
painted and ornamented crockery, some
of which was over century old. The
young ladies who waited upon the tables
were dressed in ancient costume, in
the s'get-up" of which much taste and
ingenuity was exhibited. OF course they
appeared charming. In the rear end of
the hall, upon platform, Mr.. and Mrs.
George Washington received" their
numerous friends during the evening.
After supper, ice cream, vocal music,
and other sources of amusement filled
up very pleasant programme, and the
entertainment proved to be very agree
able as well AS successful one. The net
receipts, we understand, were about so,
which will be expended in the purchase
of books for the NJ. E. Sabbath School

WE hope the Assessors of the various
towns in tie county will read the com
munication in another column written
for their benefit. Of one thing we can
assure them The District Attorney
means business, and any Assessor who
fails to do his a0hole duty in making out
the assessment Of his respective town
will have reason to regret it. The farce
of sending III such returns as have been
presented to the County Board for a few
years past is to be done away with, and
now thatAssessors have the requirements
of the law made plain to them, we expect
the first one who fails to do his duty to
be brought up with a short turn. In
complying with requests made. the az
ticle referred to will be published in
these columns twice.

LAST Saturday young man from the
town of Mishicott, named Kunz, came
to The city after seeder, and while in
the warehouse Of Bibinger & Day, was
ming it, he in some unexplained manner
got his right hand too near some cog
wheels, the thumb was caught, drawn
through it and literally mashed. The
fore finger also became entangled and
was injured to such an extent that am
putation at the first joint was rendered
necessary. DR.. Paine performed the
operation.

PROMPTLY at two o'clock yesterday
afternoon the procession comprising
Weinschenk' S band, the Turner Associa-
ton, Sons of Herman, and Manitowoc
and Chickerming Lodges, I. 0. O. f.,
together with large number of visiting
brothers, left Turner Hall and marched
through the principal streets of the city,
presenting a very fine appearance.
In the evening large audience was
present in Turner Hail. The published
programme was infinitely carried out, as
follows
Opening Ode,-Fraternity
Address of Welcome-H. f. Hubbard.
Lacture-Rev. Myron W. Reed.
Address in German-H. Stoll.
Closing Ode-F'raternity
Prayer--Rev. Mr. Bennett.
The lecture by Mr.. Reed, which of
course was the principle part of the en-
tertainment, was, as everyone expected
it would be, a mastery effort, during the
delivery of which he had the unfagging
attention of his large audience. At this
late hour resume Of his remarks could
not be prepared, much as we desired to
publish them. Mr.. Stoll, in his remarks
in German, was attentively listened to,
and was heartily applauded at their con-
clusion. The entertainment concluded
with dance, in which q large number
participated.
The receipts were trife in excess of
the expenditures, and the Odd Fellows,
at least, are satisfied with the success of
their celebration.

A GARD.

The young people of the Methodist Sunday
School in this city, hereby express their graft
tude for the very liberal patronage of the pub
lie at their recent Centennial Supper. The
crowd or rather, the JAM was such as to
render it difficult to carry out the programme
in full, especially in some kinds of singing, and
in viewing curiosities- although of the latter
we had on the tables dishes that ranged from
fifty to over hundred years old Whatever
defects were noticed, must be attributed to our
inexperience-this being the first of the kind
we ever managed. If we get up one ct the
nert Ceateaniat we shall probably do much
better.
