Drummer Boy.

The drama, Drummer Boy"
was given by the Guards, under the
management of r. De Stillini, at
the Opera House, four evenings
last week, In a manner that did
credit to those of our amateurs
who took parts therein. Without
entering into detail, we will merely
say that, although the company,
which was composed of our home
talent, with but single exception,
worked under many disadvantages,
owing to the fact that some Of those
who took leading parts were called
away at various times before the
engagement was finished, aud their
places we're filed by others. But,
Notwithstanding the drawbacks,

Sad Accident at Au Sable.

1t is with sorrow and regret that
we chronicle the sad accident which
occurred at Au Sable on Friday
last. 1t seems that the schooner
Chriss Grover was struck by the
storm of Thursday when off South
Point, her foremost carried away,
and the squaresail torn to ribbons.
She was then driven before the
gale, in helpless condition, until
off Au Sable, when she was driven
ashore at about 0 o'clock in the
evening. The next morning three
of the crew went ashore and gave
the particulars Of the disaster
They returned to the wreck, but
the wind increased to such q vio-
lent gale that the waves washed
over the wreck, and the yawl boat
was carried away, leaving the crew
in helpless and perilous situation.
Teams were sent to, Tawas for the
life saving boat, and while gone an
attempt was made to get a line
from the shore to the wreck. For
this purpose, q small cannon was
procured, loaded, a bar of iron
with long line attached placed in
the gun, and the piece fred, but
with a terrible result, for the frail
cannon exploded, injuring j. G.
Gram, and Ii. n. Loud somewhat,
and literally tearing and smashing
the right arm and leg of J.. W.
Glennie to a fearful mass to behold.
Mr.. GlenDie was taken to the home
of his sister, Mrs. Heating, where
be died two hours after the terrible
catastrophy. Mrs. Gennie and
daughter were both absent from
home, but were Immediately sent
for, and the sad news also tele-
graphed to Mrs. w. Ii. and L. K.
Potter of this city, who are sisters
of Mrs. Glennie. w. II. and Z. K.
Potter and wives at once took the
steamer Pearl, and started for the
scene of the accident, there to at
tend the funeral of the unfortunate
man.
Mr.. Glennie was one Of the most
influential, respected citizens of Au
Sable, and will be much missed by
the shore people. At one time in
the past history of Alpena, Mr.. g.
was identified with the lumber
business of this city, and to those
of our citizens who remember him,
the news Of the terrible death is
received with sadness and gloom.
At about midnight the crew of
the life-saving station arrived, and
the work of rescuing the crew
from the doomed wreck was of but
q few moments.

formed the parts allotted to them,
in a manner that proved to our cit
liens their untiring efforts to please
all.
Financially, it was a success in
all respects, and the Guards were
enabled to put 5000 in their treas
ury, to be applied toward the pur-
chase of dress uniform, a sample
suit of which was exhibited by w.
D. Hitchcock on the last evening
of the entertainment, and which
we can assure our readers is a very
neat outfit.

Mr.. Strreter does not seem to
relish what we said in regard to
him last week, and rushes to a
down town sheet with commune
cation setting forth that he is a
good mechanic, but he fails to
show that we have said anything
untruthful of him. In fact he
could deny nothing. Then the
organ individual attempts to de-
fend the aforesaid Streeter, but
the whole article of pretended de-
tense is so tainted with black
guardism that it receives no at
tention from our better class of
citizens. If Streeter is possessed
of an unblemished character, will
he or the organ be kind enough to
explain why r. d. Bullock in
structed their agent, Mr.. Johnson.
to have nothing whatever to do
with that individual. Mr.. Streeter
knew that we intended to give
him little notice, and begged for
week in which to furnish denial
of the matters of which he was
accused, but he failed to establish
anything in his favor. Want Of
room prevents us from giving the
subject the full ventilation that it
justly deserves.
