abreast on the sidewalk, protected from
the crowd by ropes for the entire dis
lance. At Eagle gate, adjoining the
Prophets residence, the cortege turned
northwest through his grounds to the
cemetery ON the hill overlooking the
valley. A high wall surrounds the GEM
etery. Already several members of his
family repose here.
His vault, for which he left a design,
rests partly below the surface. 1t is of
cut sandstone of solid construction, all
the joints broken and the stones fasten-
ed together vertically and horizontally
with heavy steel rods. When the stone
slabs of the roof are fastened down it
will be impossible to remove q single
stone without taking the tomb to pieces.
Inside the length is seven feet four
inches; the width four feet, and the
height three feet. The floor is slab of
stone fashioned like q trough, on which
win sit the coffin, which has q perforated
bottom.
The services at the cemetery consisted
of singing q hymn, dedication of the
vault, and prayer by Apostle Woodruff.
The services were conducted with the
greatest dec0rum. No part of the pro-
gramme was delayed, notwithstanding
the immense throng present.

Railroad Brakeman's Daring Feat.

81 have often heard of the brave and
daring deeds of engineers, firemen, and
brakemen," said a we'll known cattle
dealer yesterday in the hearing of Bee
reporter, but l never witnessed more
daring feat than that performed by Pat
O'Keefe, brakeman on the Grand ISL
and division of the Union Pacific Rail-
road. 1t was on Durfee & Gasman's
cattle train, ON Thursday afternoon.
Conductor Jennings had charge of the
train. We were running pretty fast for
freight train-about twenty-five miles
an hour-equal to passenger train time.
The cars jolted fearfully. When we
were within about mile and half of
Shelton Station, the door of one of the
cars flew off, having been kicked from
its fastenings by one Of the .rambunc-
tious' steers. Pat O'Keefe, the brake
man, saw the door fly off, and yelled
out: For Gods sake, stop the train,
but his voice was drowned by the rattle
of the cars, and did not reach the en-
gineer. The next thing l saw was a
steer Jump off the car. The animal
landed on his feet, and skipped off at a
lively gait, entirely unframed, and
went to grazing. That's fact, strange
as it may seem. expected to see the
whole carload follow him, but they
didn't; for O'Keefe had by this time
climbed down the side of the car, be-
tween the bars, and hanging hold with
one hand, he took his hat in the other
and waved it back and forth in the
faces of the steers, and thus kept them
at bay until we arrived at Shelton. I
wouldn't have done what he did for the
whole train of cattle, with the cars and
engines thrown in. He saved twenty
head of cattle which the company would
have to pay for had they been lost.

Sturgeon River Dam.

A letter from Local Commissioner
Chandler, from Lansing, gives the graf
flying information that he has succeeded
in securing grant of swamp land from
the State Board of Control to aid i'm con-
structing a dam across the Sturgeon
river, to prevent the inflow of sand which
has been threatening to impede the navi-
CATION of the inland lake and river route
This insures the success of this route be-
yond peradventure, for the only OBJ
stacle i'm the way of its success was the
sand bar formed by the sand coming from
this river. The building of the dam
will obviate this difficulty and our citi-
Zens can now look forward to its early
completion, with a degree of satisfaction.
We feel confident that the opening of
this route will prove to be of more bene-
fit to the advancement OF the interests of
the county than anything of public ma
ture, which has yet been accomplished.
A notice to contractors for proposals to
construct the dam will be found i'm
another column to which we would call
the attention of all who may feel inter-
ested in making bids for the work.

NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY, MARCH 10. 1877.


In accordance with previous announce
ment, the trotting races. under the auspi-
ces of the theboygan Horse association,
came off last Monday and Tuesday. Both
days were cold and blustery, yet, not
withstanding this disagreeable feature,
the attendance to witness the races was
quite large. The snow storm had cover
ed the ice to quite a death, but during
the forenoon of Monday parties were
busy scraping and clearing track, and
had it in fair condition for the race.
MONDAYS RACE.
There were three entries for the first
days race as follows:
John Livingstone. by P. McRae, of Cheboygan.
Mackinac Pet. by j. Dingman. of Mackinaw.
Black hawk, by S. Legault, OF Cheboygan.
The last mentioned horse, however,
did not trot. Tine race was for purse
of $10O-$75 to the first, and $25 to the
second horse.
In the first heat the horses got off we'll
together. and kept closely together, the
horse having the lead a part of the way,
but the Pet gets down to business, after
making a break, and comes in on the
home stretch fast enough to win the heat
by about half length.
The second heat was, in manner. IL
repetition of the first-an even start and
a close cOntest-but the horse stepped a
little the fastest, and won the heat by
about neck.
The third and last heat was won by
John Livingstone, thus winning the
race, and our Cheboygan horsemen were
happy. twas utterly impossible, under
the circumstances, to keep the correct
time made and consequently no effort was
made in that direction. The success of
the horse at the Point made him the ia
vOrite in the race.
SECOND DAY.
The purse for this day was $70-$50 to
the first. and $40 to the second horse.
There were two entries made viz:
Black Hawk. by S. Legault, of Chehovgan.
Gross Cap Girl, by MIR Lachapelle, of Gross
Cap
The day was not quite so cold as the
previous day, which made it more pleas
ant Tor those in attendance. The
race was closely contested, but the Gross
Cap Girl proved to be too fast stopper
for the Cheboygan horse, and took the
first money by winning two straight
heats. 1t is rumOred on the streets that
in this race there was some buying and
selling going on, and that unexpected
circumstances disappointed the hopes OF
interested parties, and caused themSto
mourn the loss of their small change.

who Can Beat 1t.

Last Saturday, ut Robert Robinson's

60 logs. scaling an aggregate of 1882
feet. This amount of logs was hauled
by one team, Mr.. frank Burns driving.
The logs were all loaded by two men,
Messrs. Frank Loftes and Sericl Jarvis,
and were scaled by Mr.. /. Smith Bockes,
and the work MI accomplished i'm eleven
hours. This is the best days work yet
brought TO our notice. and one which. i'm
our opinion, is hard TO beat. Ii any
of our numbering operators can exceed it.

The Range Lights.

Messrs. Humphreys have received a
letter from John A. Bailey, SuperinteD-
dent of Construction for the Lighthouse
Department, which states that the De-
partment is very anxious to secure n
deed tor 80 feet square Of the dock
property, situated at the upper end of
their dock, on the river, for the purpose
of erecting the front or lower range
light. The Department having already
secured piece OF land from Mr.. New
ton, situated on the river above Third
street, for the location of the upper or in
ner light. The title to the property in
question being i'm dispute, Messrs. Hum
phreys have proposed to Mr.. Baker, the
other claimant, to enter into a joint deed
to the United States for the property,
the money received for the same to be
placed in the hands of Geo. w. Bell,
Esq, and placed at interest until such
time as the title to the property is def
finitely settled, when it is to be paid over
to whichever party is decided to be vest
ed of the title. Mr.. Baker has written,
in reply, that he has submitted the propo-
sitiOn to Mr.. Holbrook, his attorney, and
will act in accordance with his advice.
We think it very probable that the prop
osition will be accepted, if it is, so that
the government will be duly protected in
their title to the land, Mr.. Bailey says
the department will proceed to erect the
lights this coming summer. Until site
tor front range light is secured, of
course nothing can be done.

road. -r.l - -,


For several days past there have been
rumOrs af1Oat that the Jackson, Lansing
& Saginaw railroad company is going to
work extending the road twenty miles
this side of Gaylord, its present terminus,
this coming season. We believe that, in
order to comply with the terms of their
land grant, they are compelled to con-
struct that amount of road during this
year: and this fact, taken in connection
with the rnmor leads us to believe that
the extension will be made. Mr.. Spen-
Ger, who was at OtsegO Lake last week,
informs us that the agent at that place
had received telegram from some party
in the southern part of the state stating
that such extension was going to be
made. Should such be the case. the
twenty miles would bring the road with
i'm about ten miles of Indian river, and
we think that if they commence to ex-
tend the road at all, they will not stop
short OF that river. The rapidly incrcas-
ing travel during the summer season of
those in search of pleasure and recrea-
ton, to this northern section, makes it
to their interest to reach point where
the road will enjoy the benefit of it. and
this can be done by constructing their
road to intersect with the inland naviga-
ton route. This would also enable that
road to compete with the Grand Rapids
& Indiana road for the patronage of those
visiting the Methodist camp meeting
grounds, which, we think, is quite an in
ducement for the company to push their
road to this point.

New ORLEANS, August Is, 1877.
Editor N. 0. Democrat-As an old
subscriber to your valuable paper re-
spectfully ask space for a few words in
regard to an article published in the N.
Q. Picayune Of August IA, under the
caption of "Log Notes." wherein ap-
pears a statement purporting to come
from Mr.. Mccormack, deputy marshal,
which is apt to mislead in regard to the
very gentle manner in which he has
conducted the seizure of timber and logs
in Bayou Lacombe.
At other points, as reported, fear
that there were logs on bona tide pri-
vate claims prevented seizure; here, no
such scruple was INDUCED; an indis-
criminate seizure was made, not only of
logs, but Of manufactured lum Der at my
mill, as also on board of the steamer
then loading; and also were those then
hauling from undoubted private lands
directed to cease operations. After sew
eral days of delay permission has been
finally accorded them to proceed.
That, '.practically, the industry may
continue, should the mill men pay the
market price now offered" presupposes
such had not been the case heretofore.
gratuitous insiuuatioD, that can only
brand as false a, it is uncalled for. In
but one instance has an increase on
former prices been limited at, and this
party is now considerably In my debt;
his reason becomes apparent.
Such parties as are willing to go on
with cutting and hauling are unable to
do SO, because OF the inability of the
mill to furnish supplies to them,
through the severe loss occasioned by
the arbitrary use of the power employed,
and the subsequent dilatory proceed
ings.
Respectfully yours,
W. FL. TooMER.
