The Arabs Of Lake Huron.

The propeller Bertchy was wrecked
off Grindstone City, Lake Huron, last
Thursday night, but all on board were
saved. The captain in his account OF
the affair says:
The meanest wreckess that ever
went unhung live on the shores Of Lake
Huron. Tie baggage hoated ashore,
and as fast as trunk would be landed
on the beach two or three Of the wreck
ers would seize il very much AZ hawk
pounces upon chicken, and immedi-
ately run to the woods with IT, There
they would burst il open and strip 1t
of the contents in minute. Some Of
the ladies had larl e wardrobes-the
two Memphis ladies especially had
elegant clothing. Allthis was stolen by
these thieves, 80 that the ladies were
left with nothing but the clothing they
had on when taken ashore.

The Almighty Agin Him

There were two men (about 1883,
StIckpenhy q Whewell, who owned a
sawmill near Old Town, Me-, in COM
mon. The arrangement under which
the mil, was operated was that each
one had the mill all To himself during
the alternate weeks. Stickpenny was n
mean, rusty old CHAP. Whewell was n
shrewd, investigating young man. The
mill was run by a crude, rough kind OF
an nndershot wheel that gave very little
power for the amount Of water used, 70
that the water was often short Whe-
we'll wanted 10 put in a new iron spiral
vent wheel then just coming out, but
Stickpenny would have nothing 70 do
with ii. He wasn't going 10 lay out
money for any "such job as that. "
Finally Whewell said he would pay all
the bills, 10 which Stickpenny al last
agreed "but provided you put the
wheel IN in your week" SO the new
wheel was put IN, and Whewell, being

Ny LOST LOVE.

When the silence Of midnight
Closes round my loaely room,
And family struggling through the curtains.
Mystic Wooubedms lieht the gloom.
When above the fcvcr'd ianCies
OF the weary heart and brain
kindly slumher. creeping near me,
RcaSscrtS her welcome rriga-
liz the seeming
of the dreaming,
IN all the glow that used 10 be,
My lost love comes back 10 me.
When the fair delusiye phantom
Fades before the wakeping dawn,
And the rosy smile Of sunrise
Cleans dtuwaTt the dew -aTcnChed Lawn:
Gazing from the open lattice,
1earuing me'Gory pictures there,
Swallowed by enlaciuG branches,
Sweet blue eyes and golden hair
And the sunlight
Takes the one light
That IL had for me erewhlie
la my lost loves happy smile.
In the glory OF the noontide
Her low ringing laugh hear;
In the whispering OF the leaflets,
Her light footsteps Springus uaar'
In each snow-white lilys swaying,
Is reflection of her grace:
In each roses opening beauty
shines for me ner fair Young face;
Till through the falling
Shadows calling,
AS even darkens hill and lla'n,
hear my lost loves voice again.
SO the hours are pcopled for me,
Through the haunted days and nights;
While fancy moekS my lonely Viglls
With the ghost OF dead delights
And let loud life sweep by me,
Dreaming by the silent hearth,
Where the vision of my darling
Gives old gladneSs back 10 earth
While through each cleaning
softly coming,
III sweet. false lights of joy and truth,
My lost love gives me back my youth.

Special DtxpatcA to The Tribune.
MILWAUKEE, Wis, May 3.-At 8*o'clock to-
night an incenuiary blaze occurred on the third
floor Of John Furlong's building, corner Of East
Water and Huron streets. occupied by E..
Razall & Co., bookbinders and job printers.
Fires were started at half dozen different
places on this floor, and By the time the iremen
reached the spot the flames bad made considera-
Bile headway, still they we're able to prevent a
conlagration, aud determine one OF the bo1dest
acts Of incendiarism ever attempted in Anlwau-
kee. The premises had been thoroughly kero-
sened, and q large can Of benzine was
SO placed that the heat would cause
an explosion and render the destruc
tion OF the building certain. The timely
arrival and ef1icicnt work of the f1remen pre-
vented this, however, and undoubtedly pre-
vented considerable loss Of life, as well as
property. Razall & Co.'s stock suffered dam
ages to the extent of $500. Two lower floors
we're occupied by butcher, Collins. l. Smith,
wholesale dealers in tea Their luss, resulting
from damage by water, is between 5000 and
$4,000. The building is damaged to the extent
OF Sl,o00 br tire and water. The building, as

fully insured, though tue names OF the COM

SpecfHi Dispatch to The Tribune.
MILWAUKEE, May 3.-The arrangement en-
tered into yesterday with Angus Smith, for the
shipment OF wheat stored on board Of vessels to
Buffalo, embraced also the sclr Reuben Doud.
Tie agents Of these vessels explain that their
agreement with Mr.. Smith calls for rate of
not less than cents per bu, and anything
above tais figure that may be paid
to other crafts before their arrival
In Buffalo. The object Of sending these vessels
down under such an agreements is to get rid of
the influence Of the storage question in connec-
ton with the settlement Of, opening rates. Mr..
Smith claimed that the gr1iifso stored on bourd
Ut crafts which ypintered here made difference
Of 11c bushcl against the shipper. Now that
they are gone, it remains to be seen whether
the asking rate will be conceded in the case Of
charters to load at elevators. The TRIBUNE
correspondent is of the opinion that it will not.
There was no inquiry for Buffalo vessels to-
day. One or two canacrs' were wanted for
Kingston, but shippers were: not willing to pay
more than &c per .bu freight, which carriers re-
fused to accept. '' "A
