A RUINOUS DEFALCATION.
TWO MORE FALL RIvER MILLS wRECKED.

| TWO MORE FALL RIVE MILLS WRECkED.
| THE BORDER CITY AND THE SYCAMORE MILLS
BROUGHT TO BANKRUPTCY BY THEIR TREASURER,
GEORGE i. HATHAwAY-THE TWO COMPANIES
ALLIED WITH THE UNION NLLs-ISPLIcIT con-
FIDENCE FELT IN Mr.. HATHAWAY.
FALL RIVER. Mass, April 22.-Since the defalca-
ton of Chace treasurer of the Union Mills consid
cradle uneasness has been felt about the solyency
of the Border City and Sycamore Mills, of which
George L. Hathaway is treasurer. This I'M
easiuess eliminated in the protest OF the
corporations paper at Providence last week,
which at that time was attributed to the
oversight of the Treasurer; but since then these
notes have been permitted to remain unpaid. In
consequence of this the directors made an impera-
| tive demand upon Mr.. Hathaway for an immediate
statement of affairs. The latter has been busily
at work upon his statement, and to-day 1t was
submitted to the directors 1t is believed
| that affairs are badly mixed, and that
| Treasurer Hathaway is heavy defaulter to
both mills. An expert has been employed TO ex-
anime the books. The directors met again at p.
| m. The Border City Mills is involved to
! the amount of 81 200, 600 and the Sycamore
| mills largely, but figures are given.
1t is reported that Charles p. Stcney resigned as
director. 1t appears that Hathaway was drawn into
the trouble through close intimacy with Chace the
| latter it is understood, receiving large amount of
the funds of the Border City.
| The Border City Mills were incorporated in 1872.
and consisted of two mills till November II, 1877,
when Mill No. l was totally destroyed by fire.
| These mills manufactured about 100000 yards
of cloth per annum. and employed 900 hands. When
the first mill was built. it called the Peoples
Mill" the stock being held by many small stock
holders. The capital stock, which was always repre-
scented by Treasurer Hathaway as all paid i'll,
now appears only to have been about three
| quarters paid. The feeling expressed
against Hathaway by many is very bitter, and his
arrest will not probably be delayed long as that
Of Chace. He has persstently falsied affairs TO
| the directors since the Union Mills defalcatlon.
! His friends claim that he can show that not
one dollar Of money has been appropriated to
| his own use; that the original loans of money to
| Chace were made in good faith; that Hathaway had
property enough to hold his corporations harmless,
| and until within a few days he believed that his
mills would not lose, and that the recent loans to
| Chace had been madebecause the latter threatened
| and drove him into a course of action which he
never intended.
TIE BORDER CITY MILLS.
| The Border City mills were incorporated in
| 1872. with capital OF $l,OO0,0OO, all
| paid in, divided INTO ten thousand shares
at 800 each. The corporation manufactured print
cloths running two mills, with 1854 looms, and
| 7G,2OS spindcs, employing about $50 hands, and
producing 10000 pieces weekly. Their condition

An Astonishing Fact.

A large proportion of the American
people are to-day dying from the effects
of dyspepsia or disordered liver. The
result of these diseases upon the masses
of intelligent aud valuable people is most
alarming, making lite actually a burden
instead of a constant existence of enjoy
ment and usefulness as it vught to be.
There is no good reason for this. if you
will only, throw aside prejudice and
skepticisri, take the advice of druggists
and your friends, and try one bottle of
Green's August Flower. Your speedy
relief is certain. Millions of bottles of
this medicine has been given away to
,ry its virtues, with satisfactory results
in every case. You can buy a sample
bottle for 10 cents to try. Three doses
will relieve the worst case. Positively

From onr exchanges we CLEAN the fol-

said to be getting more firm in prices, on

At Alpena the stock of logs i'm, Cid and

The market opens with favorable out
look for sellers, although it is yet too
early in the season to make any predic-
tions as to what the market will be. The
opening prices. however, indicate an all
vance OF about 81 90 per IN. on the prices
current ut the close of last season. The

The Cheboygan Amateur Dramatic as

entertainments at the Town Hall next
Tuesday and Friday nights. The first
night will be presented that thrilling
Irish drama. '.The Colleen Bawn, or the
Brides of Garryown." Although this
drama has been produced in Cheboygan
before, it has never been put upon the
stage in this village in so complete a
manner as the Dramatic club will present
it. The scenery is the finest ever seen in
Cheboygan, and is alone worth the price
of admission. 1t was, painted by Nor
man Lyons and F. E. Hamel. and our
citizens should avail themselves of this
opportunity to see what our home artists
can do. Owing to the length of the play
no other piece will be put on that night.

On Friday night will be presented that
beautiful thrce-act comedy, "David Gar
rick,r and a roaring farce entitled, "Who
is Who" David Garrick is one of the
finest comedies in the English language.
1t is founded upon an apocryphal anec-
dote of the great English actor. Ada
Ingot, the daughter OF wealthy East
Indian director, having fallen in love
with David Garrick, while witnessing
his performances, ier father entices the
player to his home, and there proposes to
pay him large sum of money to leave
the stage, if not the country. IngOt de-
iIes his daughter to marry Chivy, whom
she heartily despises. Garrick suggests
to the merchant to extend to him an in
vitation to dinner, promising that he
would SO behave as to Induce A,!a to
accept for her husband the man ofIngot's
selecting. After dinner and during the
evening. the actor Stimulates inebricty.and
conducts himself in such manner as to
insult the company and to disgust the
young lady. After his retirement, Chivy
reveals to Ingot, in the hearing of his
daughter, that having casually met with
Garrick later in the evening, at the Con-
vent Garden club, the actor had confess
ed the trick he had played, and had ac-
cepted challenge to fight duel with
a buck, who had spoken disrespectfully
of the merchant and Of Ada. Convinced
of GarriCk's love for her, Miss IngOt
hurries to his lodgings. at an early hour.
to avert The duel, where she is surprised
by the unexpected arrival of her father
and crusin. Garrick appears and illus
trates the nobility OF his true character
to such degree that the merchant dis
cards Chiyy as son-in-law, and entreats
the actor TO accept the hand of his
daughter, thus verifying the correctness
of his promise that Ada should marry
the man of her fathers choice.

We are to-day in the United

Emperor in the Tuileries or the

a bloody controversy had matters

account.
