some Squash.

al
Mr.. Briggs, farmer residing in town
80, range west. in the southern portion OF
thiscounty, near Big Toe Bend, on=thei
Sturgeon river, raised squash on his
farm this season that is worthy of be-
iig noticed. The squash is five five feet:
four inches 10 circumference. The seeds;
from which this mammoth squash grew
was carried off by the mice and was,
dropped nc the spot on which it took:
root. This will show that shis
|northern section is not altogether un-'
productive, as some would suppose. Mr..
Briggs has only been OH his place little
over one year, yet has made a great i'm
provement. He has got cleared some
six or eight acres of land, and will raise
this seasou, about fifty bushels of corn,
and contemplates sowing two bushtE
of wheat this fall. His farm is on the
contemplated line of the Jackson, Lam
sing s. Saginaw railroad. On his place
is large spring. the head of which is
estimated'to be about eighty feet above
the, level of the grade of the railroad, and
Mr.. Briggs thil'ks that the spriIlgEcanbe
used to advantage in connection with
water station for the company. The time
is coming, ami not far distant, when the
advantages of, this. northern section for
farming purposes will be generally
known There i. as good farming lands,
and as productive. in Cheboygan and ad-
Joining counties as there are in the state.
Examination of Affairs Of the Sault
l Canal.
The absconding OF the clerk of the
Sa,,lts canal office at that place, led to
"a thorough exiininationfof the-acconnts
of that office. The result of that exam
ination has not yet been made known.
A correspondent of the Detroit Post
says, i'm reference to it. that Col. Frank
Gortous the superintendent of the, canal.
his demanded the fullest Investigation o.
his accounts, and during the last few
days the State Board of Control have
made complete and thorough examina-
tion, Of everything under his charge. To
those who are acquainted with Mr.. Cor
ION not the slightest doubt of his integ-
rity is present, and the best wishes of all
are extended to HIM in his trouble.

A Michigan Love Story.
[From the Detroit Free rress.

Amelia Poster, daughter of VIM. Foster,
living in the town of Commerce, Oakland
county, was engaged to marry Austin
Parks, whose parents reside about a mile
south of the lake in the town Of Novi. Mon
day was appointed as the wedding day, but
as the time drew near the girl told him she
would not marry him, and received the at
tentions of a widower named Abel Smith of
the same village. This aroused the demon
of jealousy in the bosom of Parks, and he
one day told the girl if he saw her with
Smith again he would make 1t uncomforta
BILE for her. She paid no attention to the
threat, and occasionally went to church or
an entertainment with Smith. On Sunday
ught Miss Foster and Mr.. Smith went to
the Methodist church. After the services
were over, and the congregation dismissed,
Mr.. Smith and Miss Foster left the building
Parks standing and looking on. When
they had gone short distance from the
church Parks got ahead of them and
secreted himself alongside of building.
Waiting until they were close by,
he stepped out, and raising a revolver,
fired, sending ball through one of the
girls cheeks. In moment he fired aRe-
ther in the back of her neck. The poor
girl dropped to the sidewalk, and her COM
panion (Smith) made a move as though to
deten. her. Placing the pistol within two
feet of Smith, Parks exclaimed: "Meve
step and III shoot you.' This overawed
Smith, and he made no further effort. Then
coping beside the prostrate girl, Parks
raised her with one hand, while with the
other he put bullet into her body, as if de-
termined to effectually end his bloody work.
Another moment and he was lost in the
darkness. The insensible body of the girl
was carried home, and DR.. Hoyt was sum-
moned. The wound in the cheek was not
necessary fatal, and the ball which entered
the girls body was extracted, but the ball
| through the neck remains in the head. 1t
Y is said this may prove fatal. Miss Foster
is said to be quiet, inoffensive girl of about
seventeen years Of age, Parks does no bear
! an enviable reputation.
