AROllgh Experience.

Last Tuesday night the family of a Mr..
Dufinas who reside ON Bois Blanc had
an extremely rough experience which
they will have no anxiety to repeat. On
that day Mr.. Duffinas attempted to reach
this place from his home on the island,
intending to spend theswinter here. 1t
was quite late in the evening when they
attempted to enter the harbOr, and not
being able to find the entrance he ran
into the ice about half way between the
piers and the little island. He then at
tempted to get his boat out on the ice,
but in this he failed, but he succeeded
in getting wet. He finally had to con-
clude to remain in the boat all night,
and they suffered extremely with the
wet and cold. In the morning Mr.. Duff
mas succeeded in getting to the shore
where he secured help andlanded his wife
and child. The boat was4eft in the ice
where it remained at late hour yester-
day.

NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
SATURDAY, DECEMBER 6, 1879.
0fficiaIPaper ofthe County and Village
The Lady OfLyOns.

Since the town hall was completed
there have been few nights, if any,when
the hall has been as well filled as it was
Thursday night, the occasion being the
representation of the celebrated play, the
LADY of Lyons" by the Amateur Drama
tic Club of this place. Not only was the
number present gratifying but the class
of people who composed it must have
been eminently so, as it was comprised
of our best citizens.
1t is not often that such play as the
Lady of Lyons is undertaken by amateurs.
for it is one of the most difficult plays
to render which is upon the stage, one
which few professionals undertake, and
only then when they can have the best
of support. We were aware, as we have
before stated that few places could boast
of an amateur dramatic society equal to
the one we have here, but when it was
announced that they had decided to pre-
sent such play as the one named we
were surprised, but not nearly as much
so as when we witnessed the play as they
placed it upon the stage.
Of Mr.. James j. Brown as Claude
MelnOtte little need be said. Every citi-
zen of the place knows his talent as an
actor, and knows that he never under
takes anything in this line, in which he
does not do himself justice, and add to
the reputation he already enjoyed. The
difficult part which he assumed in this,
was not an exception.
Ferdinand Hamel improves every time
he appears, and as Col. Damas lhe did
well. There were many difficult pass
ages to render but he was always equal
to the emergency.
MesSrs. Wharton, Frost and BegOle
filled their parts exceedingly well, and
all showed genuine dramatic talent as
well as careful study and a desire to
make the most out of their parts.
We have not space to specify all but
we cannot close without stating the
opinion that as Pauline, which in the
atrical parlance isa ''star" character, and
difficult one, Mrs. Farr surpassed any
former attempt she has ever made.
Every part of her acting showed the re-
suit of hard work and careful study.
Miss. Carrie Davis made her first ap-
pearance in a dramatic performance,
and as Madam Deschappelles acquitted
herself in such manner as not to dis
appoint her friends. She seemed to have
a just appreciation of the character of
the aristOcratic and designing mother
and she acted well her conception Of the
character which was highly appreciated
by the audience.
Miss Libbie Walton made all
there was of the Widow MelnOtt both in
acting and dressing the character.
All the minor characters were well
taken and the entire play put upon the
stage the best of any play in Cheboygan,
both in the dress of the characters and
the stage properties and fixtures.
The new scenery which was painted
by the Smyth Brothers added very much
to the appearance of the stage and was
particularly adapted for this play.CIt
was well painted and reflects credit upon
the young gentlemen as artists.

Foster said it was 80 feet long, some of

the Sandy Hook life-saving crew asserts
that they saw monster 300 feet long,
with head larger than a hOgshead, and
eyes as big as saucers.

Capt. BOyntOn Again Goes Back OH
Cheboygan.

The steamer ST. Paul was due here
this week with the latest supplies of the
season from Detroit for our merchants.
Capt. BOyntOn of that boat did not leave
the goods at Alpena as he did ChebOygan
goods few years ago, but he did leave
them at Duncan City. If his ears did
not burn during the day after our mer-
chants found that he was not going to
run in here and land their goods, the old
adage is not true. We understand that
some of them did not content themselves
with mutterings of discomfort
at a distance, but held an inter-
view with him, in which the strongest
kind of Saxon was indulged in. 1t was
long time after Capt. BoyntOn left the
ChebOygan supplies at Alpena, before
our merchants would consent for boat
under his command, to bring goods for
them, but couple of years constant
running here had again secured him a
fair share of their trade, but it is now
asserted that this transaction will be
salted down against him, and that his
boat will feel the effects of it next sea-
son and probably longer. Capt. BOynton
claims that he was so deeply laden that
he could not come in the channel, but
the ChebOygan people do not think that
the few hundred tons of freight that was
for this place after stopping and unload
ing at all points up the shore would load
such a steamer as the st. Paul to any
such depth. The excuse is little thin.
