The st. Joseph was due here Thursday
evening. There was large field Of ice
in the straits at the entrance of the har-
Dor, but no one supposed that there would
be any difficulty in. the boat getting
through. Several of our citizens had
friends aboard and waited up until a late
hour thinking that fshe might pull
through, but as the midnight hour drew
OIL they deserted their watch one by one
and repaired to their homes. When
morning came the vessel was seen in the
ice, apparently almost through, bnt as
the hours wore on, it could be plainly
seen that she was making no headway.
About ten o'clock the tug Minter went
out to the ice OH prospecting expedi-
ton. and OH her return brought off quite
number of passengers. Soon afterward
the tug Eliza Williams steamed up and
went to the assistance of the propeller.
and going around the field of ice, fol-
lowed in tue channel cut and assisted
her i'm backing out and turning around,
when, she too went around the and came
up to The dock about three o'clock. She
had OH board a number of passengers and
IA large quantity OF freight for this place
1t was said by those who Went out, thai
the ice was from three to five feet thick
Masses OF ice piled and frozen together.

be smothered for want of air to breathe.
Then she got an old oyster can and put
some alcohol in it. Then she ransicked
the wood shed for a block of wood,
which being found she placed on the

alcohol on that, and she said afterwards
that she thought perhaps it was too near

Since the return, some weeks ago, of
Mr.. Jerome Leavitt, who has charge of
Macarthur, Smith & Co.'S large mill, that
establishment has been undergoing con-
siderable improvements looking towards
an increase of the working capacity of
the mill The carriage of one OF the cir

ened, making an addition to the mill nec-
essary. This is to enable them saw
much longer logs. An elevated railway
has also been constructed for the purpose
of conveying the slabs to the lath mill.
This will be a great convenience as well
as saving of labor. Another edger has
been added to the machinery, besides
quite number of minor improvements.
Mr.. Leavitt now thinks that be will be
ready to start up, a week from next Mon
day.

nal, while in attendance upon the meet
ing of the Board OF Control last week
took considerable pains to ascertain the
actual condition Of affairs. TO say that
the prospects are favorable would be as.
suring too much; still the situation has
some encouraging features.
After the company to whom the con-
tIact had been let failed to come to time
as stated i'm the TRIBUNE some weeks
since, the old Marquette company, by tel
egraph, offered to take the contract upon
the basis of their original bid. This prop
OsitiOn is still in force, and was the one
considered by the Board. The company
had representative at the meeting, who
seemed very anxious to have the Board
take favorable action upon their propO-
s'tiOn. There was considerable differ
ence between the wishes of the company
and the. Board regarding the nature oil
the guarantee bonds to be given. Owing
to the absence Of the Governor no action
was taken; but the Board adjourned to
meet on the Sth, i'm Detroit, should there
be any chance Of harmOnizing the views
of the company and Board. Should the
company come to the terms exacted by
the Board. the contract will probably be
let at that time and all the necessary
papers signed. Should this not be the
case, it would seem hardly probable that
anything will be accomplished this sea-
son.
