A supply for the Pulpit of the Congre-
gational Chmc Obtained.


Since the notice given some weeks
since by Mr.. Maile to his congregation,
that he must at least take few mon h'S
rest from his work, the trustees, under
the direction of the society, have been
corresponding with reference to securing
supply for short time. We under
stand that they have succeeded beyond
their expectations. Through Mr.. RoIlo,
they have assurances that the Rev. II. NJ.
Thompson,sOf Cincinnati, Ohio, will spend
few months i'm charge of the Congrega-
tiOnal church here after Mr.. Maile closes
his services. Mr.. Thompson has just
closed an exceedingly successful pastorate
over the Columbia Congregational church
of Cincinnati. He is ayoung man, en-
thusiastic, eloquent, and hard worker,
sparing not himself, and possessing the
faculty ofarousing i'm his people some of
his own love of working in the Masters
vineyard, arHl commenced preaching
when but seventeen years of age.
We congratulate the church, as well as
the citizens of the place. upon the success
of the trustees in securing the services OF
a man of MIR. Thompson's reputation and
ability, to supply The church until a per-
manent pastor can be obtained.
Mr.. Thompson will commence his la
bOrs here about the first of May.

They sat by the side of a cheerful fire
In their kitchen. The dog and cat Law
upon the floor basking in the warmth
which came from the stove. Their boy,
a little nine year-old fellow, named john
ny, was busy playing with potato pop
gun. ~
That pop-gun was the'cause of all the
row. Shooting here and there, he didn't
care where, one of the potato pellets
struck the father in the eye. With his
hand upon his eye, the old man started
for the boy. The old woman started for
the Old man, and stepped upon the dog,
which set up howl. The old man in
cvading the broom. which by this time
was in the hands of the woman, kicked
the cat. The cat set up yowl and start
ed to escape.
Finding all avenues Of escape closed
she jumpe and succeededin knocking
the lamp from the table.
Darkness prevailed, the dog howled.
the cat tore around, while the boy dodg-
cd here and there to evade the broom i'm
the hands of the woman as she struck
wildly at the old man. ALI this made a
terrible din.
Ceasing the racket long enough to
light the lamp, gave them chance to
use their tongues, which they did with a
vengeance. But this di Int settle the
matter. Things went from bad to worse,
until the old woman, shaking her head
with peculiar motion, said she would
''see in the morning"
Morning came. She went before
Squire Sutton, and boldly demanded
her rights.
"What is the matter :" said the Squire.
"Matter enough" said she. 81 want
a law suit, and am going to have one
if you'll give it to me-"
Estate your case," said the Squire.
"Me and my old man have had row,
the old villain! TO use me as he did
and all for nothing, too. Give me the
lawsuit; quick. I'll fix him." and she
danced around, gesticulating with her
hands as she talked.
"You swear?"
81 never swear, nor l didn't swear al
all, but he sworc ut me, and-and-give
me your law suit, can't wait.
Said the Squire-and as he talked his
countenance assumed a funeralized ex.
preston:
"My good woman, why all this trou
BILE; you are old enough to know better
than to quarrel with your husband. II
would be far better for you to settle yOul
little troubles yourselves than to come
into court and have them settled by lcga
means"
ssThen you won't give me lawsuit
I know what I'll do then. I'll 60 home
and I'll scald him, that's what Ill do
and she turned and walked off with ven
geance i'm her eye.

More Sawmills.

Two of the patent mulay sawmllls
which are advertised i'm the TRIBUNE,
are being set up this week at Cross Viii
lage by the general agent, Chas. Merritt,
of Battle Creek. One is for Father Wy
kemp, of the cOnvent-we did not learn
the name of the purchaser of the other.
That two of these mills are found to be
necessity at Cross Village shows that
that portion of the state is being rapidly
filled with settlers. These mills are par
ticularly adapted to the wants of a new
country where every resident would be
glad to get out his own logs and have them
sawed out into the class of lumber re-
quired for his wants.
There are several points in this county
where one of these mills would do well.
and at the same time add much to the
comfort of the settlers and to the deyel-
opment Of the country.

Suit For Money Bet.

Archibald P. Newton has been sued.
The papers were served upon him
Thursday. The facts of the case are
somewhat as follows: Some time ago.
about the commencement of the fast
horse excitement, sSlippery Jim" offered
to bet $50 that he could within ten days
produce horse owned in Cheboygan or
Mackinaw counties which could beat
2:52 OH the ice. The bet was accepted by
Z. McRae, and money placed i'm A. p.
Newton's hands. Articles stating the
facts were drawn up by VIM. Devine
and signed by them upon blank leaf in
pass book. The time was to be accord
ing to the rules of the American associa-
ton. The time was not made, and now
"Slippery Jim" commences suit against
Newton for bis $50. 1t now transpires
that the leaf in Devine's pass book is
gone. 1t is claimed by Jim that the
time was made at Mackinaw. Just how
the matter will end is hard to tell, but
probably under the law the money can
be recovered; but as Mr.. Newton is firm
in not giving it up, it may cost more
than 1t amounts too.

Crooked Wheat.

As is we'll known to many of our citi-
zens there has been a barge laying in the
river since navigation closed last fall,
containing about 1000 bushels of wheat.
The barge is owned by Stockbridge & Co.,
the numbering firm at Point st. Ignace.
The wheat came from vessel which was
wrecked in the straits last fall. The
barge had been left in the charge of an
old, simple-minded man, named John
Mahan. Last Tuesday, much to the sur
prise of many of our people, the barge
was moved to Nelson's warehouse, and a
large gang Of men employed to unload
her. 1t was then understood on the
streets that the man unloading the wheat
had given out that he was an agent of
the insurance companies, while the old
man in charge Of the barge stated that it
had been represented to him, that this
man, who gave his name as Kennedy, had
purchased the wheat. Taking the two
stories in connection, before night it be-
gan to be whispered about town that
there might be something "crookedn in
the transaction. About night Capt. Nc
Carly, who is in the employ of the COM
pany at the Point, came over and stopped
the unloading process, :telegraphed to
Stockbridge, who replied that the wheat
had not been sold, and to stop any further
unloading. This has been done. About
half the cargo had been taken of. The
man Kennedy claims, we believe, to have
proper papers from the insurance COM
panies interested i'm the wheat, and that
he had right to its possession. The old
barge keeper still maintains his state
ment that the possession of the wheat
was obtained by representing that it had
been purchased from Mr.. Stockbridge.
The matter will probably be settled in
the courts, but until further light is shed
upon it, it has rather crooked" appear
ance.
1t the man Kennedy is regular in
surance agent, it would not appear that
it would be necessary for him to get pos
session Of the wheat under false pretenses,
which he did if the old mans statement
Is true.
Kennedy left for Petoskey Wednesday
night, and whether he intends to return
or not we have not learned.

NORTHERN, TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY, MARCH IL, 1876.
A Ghost in the Woods.

There is employed in Chambers camp
Frenchman with name so thoroughly
French that our reporter could not re-
member it; and, ha dhe done So,
it is not at all probable that
we could have spelled it; therefore, per-
haps it is as we'll that we don't know it.
One evening, last week, as the gang of
men with which he was at work were
returning to the camp this man stopped
and went a little aside from the road to
get drink. The other men went on
ana arrived at camp, and still the loiterer
did not come; and they had almost
made up their minds that he had become
lost, and were on the point of sending a
party to search for him when he came
into camp covered with perspiration and
a look of terror upon his face. This was
the explanation he gave his comrades of
his absence and cause of fright:
Shortly after he had got his drink, and
had started in the path following his
companions, he felt some one strike him
with his hand upon his shoulder. and,
looking around to see who it might be,
he was horror stricken to see the face
and torn of a cousin who had died some
five years ago!
"Will you give me that fifteen dollars
now?" demanded the apparition.
'Yes, and five more with it if you will
only go away" replied the frightened
Frenchman.
Then the Frenchman took to his heels.
but was so frightened that he did not
take the nearest road, but wandered
about-which accounted for his lengthy
absence. He stated that the converse.
ton was carried on i'm French, and that
it had reference to little transaction be-
tween them shortly before his cousins
death. He had loaned the cousin $15
which he-thc cOusin-could not repay
and finally asked that it might be made
a gift. This he had rather angrily de-
clined to do, coupled with the expires sion
go to He'll J"
"Now," says the Frenchman, she has
come back to haunt me-
The boys in camp at first thought that
some one had been playing trick upon
him; but they could account for all who
could talk French, in some other place
at the same time, so the mystery remains
unsOlved.
The circumstance has, of course, caused
a good deal of talk i'm the camp. and the
men differ widely in their opinions re.
garding it; but the Frenchman is firm
in the belief that it was the apparition
of his cousin which accosted him in the
woods.

White Fish For Mullett Lake.

AS stated in the TRIBUNE last week,
the State Fish Commissioner intends to
stock all our inland lakes with white fish.
AS yet Mullett Lake has received none.
All that is necessary, however, to secure
a supply, is for some responsible party
who lives near the lake to agree to 60 to
PetOskey and receive them and so soon
as possible deposit them in the lake &C
cording to directions which will accom-
pany the fish. We trust that someone
who has team will take sufficient in
terest in the matter to secure them. ALI
information can be obtained of G. w.
Hutchens at Petoskey.
