Business on a New Principle.

A little girl living just west of In
dianola asked for permission to sell
melons during the melon season. This
being granted she at once set up her
store of fine melons at her fathers gate,
and then asked her mamma what price
she should ask for her incest ones, etc.
She was permitted the privilege of ask
ing her own price for her Injuries. For
while she was at loss to know whist
to do, but calling her wits together for
a few moments she said; 81 will sell
according to the looks of the people; il
they come along in a fine buggy, will
ask them 40 cents for my best ones, and
if they are in wagon 1 will ask for the
same sized melon % cents; but, if they
come along on foot and look to be tired
l will sell to them for 10 cents the SAM
sized melons L ask the rich people ~
cents for" Her word she kept, and
sold several dollars worth of melons
during the fall.-Indiagola (Ia.) Tna-

obliged to leave the gay raillery about
her and take refuge upon the yeranda'

MISS DABNEY'S FILTRATION

F"
II had been universally conceded
among Louise Dabney's friends that she
was not favorite with gentlemen-that
fortune so essential to feminine well be-
ing. Whether it was from lack OF beau
ty (though about that there were diver
sites of opinion), or because OF cold
and critical manner, certain reserve
irresponsible to the masculine touch
stone, an innate disdan of Irritation, of
. making an effort TO please one sex more
than another, who could say? Louise
was herself aware that she inspired the
masculine heart with no serious
sentiments, and she may have Won
.dered secretly by what spells other girls
who were not so well bred nor so intel
Iigent, and certainly no fairer, gathered
groups of lovers about them, while she
stood by alone and uncared for-not
that she coveted n plurality-but what
charm had they to which she could not
aspirep Every woman loves admiration,
and it is not to BIO supposed that Louise
Dabney was superior to this amiable
weakness.
"Louise has never had Irritation, a
love affair, or u proposal" her friends
would have told you; but they were not
quite correct in their verdict. She had
had can interest,"" to put it mildly, ever
since that dreadful night on the Cont
nent when her uncle had been brought
lifeless into the little out-of-the-
way place among the mountains, and
had left her alone among people
speaking an unfamiliar jargon, with the
sea rolling between herself and home;
and Loring Northcote had come to her
aid, though total stranger, and taken
her burdens upon himself, and had been
like II shadow in weary land to the
desolate girl, and had finally es~
corted her home across the sea, with
his widowed sister as chaperon. Since
that period there had been more or less
intercourse between them, to be sure,
but the half-tender regard he had mani
tested toward her had seemed to crys-
tallHe, without developing into any
fhing more personal and particular.

she said, and excused him in her heart.
And when she had thanked him for all
his kindnesses, and said, elbow can |

ING TO me when you need kindness, he
had answered, but he thought, " She is

though Louise had more than half eX-
pecsed that their relations would grow
closer rs time sped, had, perhaps, some
right TO expect it, yet Mr.. Northcote had
never advanced step nearer; and II
she had abandoned hope, the flame still
smoldered, ready to be kindled by a
word, a touch, and nobody the wiser,
not even the interested friends, who
Thought Louise neglected her opportu-
mites; that any other girl would have
had an offer, at least, under the circum-
stances.

A Most Distressing Occurrence.

The Jessamine (Ky.) Journal says:
Never. have we been called upon to
chronicle more heartrending accident,
nor one which has enlisted more gen
eral and genuine sympathy with the af-
flicted family than that which occurred
at Union Mills on last Friday afternoon.
Misses Blackford and Bourne and Char
lie Bourne composed a party at Mr..
Claybourne Rutherford's on that day.
In the morning some of the company
attended protracted meeting IN prog
ress at East Hickman, but they all met
at the dinner-table, when one of the
young ladies proposed to go to the
Touring mill, stating that she had never
seen one working. Consequently the
party named above, with Miss Julia and
Miss Annie Rutherford, went down to
Steele & Bronaugh's mill, and Capt.
Steele, with his usual urbanity, was
showing them around. They had been
looking at the bolting-cloths, and passed
over some ship stuff. Miss Annie Ruther-
ford shook her skirts to rid it of the dust
which had adhered to it, when it caught
in inter cog-wheel, about one foot
from the floor, which drew it into the
machinery, and there was a similar
wheel about three feet higher, in which
her left arm was caught and was taken
clean off, together with the flesh and
bone off her breast. Clinging to the
shaft, her skirt asst in the bottom wheel,
she was whirled round at the rate of
"a revolutions per minute. Frantic with
excitement, Miss Julia Rutherford rush
ed to her sisters assistance; Charley
Bourne did his best to keep her from
the danger she was exposing herself to,
and at the same time doing his utmost
to extricate Annie, but Julia persisted
that she could not stand to see her sister
in such place, and, putting her arms
around her, she had her right arm cut
off by the same wheel. Annie's clothes
were so twisted that it was impossible
to pull her away until the engine was
stopped by Capt. Steele, which took
one minute to do, and Mr.. Samuel
Gosney, perceiving there was some
thing wrong, instantly lowered
the stones. The scene now baflled de-
scription. There were the cogs filled
with flesh and bones. An arm lying on
the floor, the glove still on the hand,
two lovely girls PROSTATE in their blood,
and Charley Bourne with his left thumb
cut off, from which he has suffered in
tensely and was threatened with lock-
jaw, but he is now probably out OF dan
ger. Mr.. James Bronaugh, Jr., took
Julia home in buggy, and Mr.. Steele
fixed Annie on board and presented
her to her distressed parents. Thus the
company who, few minutes before,
were happy and joyous, were plunged
into inexpressible grief by shocking
and deplorable accident.
Drs. Jasper, Welsh and Skillman have
been interchangeable in their attendance on
the sufferers, and at last accounts they
were improving.
Miss Annie did not rally from the eff
fects of the shock for IS hours, but since
reaction has taken place fully, she bids
as fair to recover as Miss Julia, whose
arm was amputated on Saturday.

A petition will soon be in circu-

zens to contribute such sums as
they may feel able and willing to-
ward employing the Alpena Guard
Band TO play one evening each
week at different parts of the city,
and the money thus raised will be
applied on the purchase of new in
strumuents, of which the Band is
very much in need. 1t is calcula-
ted that a new set of instruments
will cost some 5000, and to raise
this amount the boys propose to
give their weekly open air concerts,
and, after receiving what our peo-
pie can contribute, they will then
borrow a sufficient amount to make
up the balance, and the instruments
will he forthcoming. We know
that if our citizens put their Shout

be accomplished at a little expense
from each, aud we sincerely hope
that the project will prove in every
way a success.

Navigation.

The first boat to arrive this sea-
son, was the schooner Sea Bird,
which wintered at Pressure Isle.
She sailed into port on Friday
morning, April 90.
On Saturday morning last, the
mail steamer Dove, Of the shore
line, arrived at this port, being the
first steamer to put in an appear
ance here this season. The Dove
arrived again Monday, and last
evening.
The steamer Dunlap, Of the mail
route, is now at Detroit, where she
has been undergoing thorough re-
pairs, and will soon be making reg
ular trips between this port and
Bay City, and will be commanded
by Capt. L. r. Boynton, formerly
Of the Wenona.
During the forenoon Monday,
the propeller City of Concord, of
the N. IT. line, came into port, and
tied up to the dock. 1t appears
that she was bound from Milwau-
kee to Buffalo, loaded with -four,
beef, etc., and having passed
through the Straits without diff
Guilty, proceeded on down the lake,
but when off Point Aux Barques
she encountered so much ice that
it was found necessary to return to
Alpena, as harbor of safety, and
for wood. She left again for Buff
falo during Monday night, and will
doubtless get through without fur
Their delay.
The steamer st. Joseph, which
left Detroit last week, got as far as
Port Huron Friday, but found so
much ice that further progress was
doubtful until change Of wind,
az the lower end of Lake Huron
was completely jammed full of ice.
However, she made an attempt to
force her way through, and at
night Saturday she had got two
miles ont Of Port Huron, and was
fast in the ice. The south winds
Sunday and Monday broke mp the
ice to n considerable extent, and
the st. Joseph pushed on through,
being unable to touch at Lexing-
ton, and arrived at Alpena about
nine o'clock yesterday morning.
After unloading large amount
of freight at this port, she pro-
ceeded on up the lake to Cheboy-
gan and Mackinaw.
The propeller Holland, which is
to take the place of the Wenona
on the Alpena and Cleveland line,
left Port Huron Monday morning,
with the intention of reaching this
city If possible.
The steamer Marine City is to
leave Detroit for Alpena and way
ports this evening. Her officers
for the present season are as fol-
lows: Captain, w. E. Conner;
Mate, E. Millen !; Engineer, r. Nc
Clure; Clerk, J. Porteous; Stew
