Gone TO Her Last Home.

Mrs. L. II. Watrous, Of this city,
who had been seriously i'll for about
four weeks, quickly passed from this
earth on Thursday of last week, at
noon. She leaves a mother, brother,
husband and month old babe.
Mrs. Watrous was we'll and favor
ably known to most of the people OF
Alpena, ana to know was to love, hon.
or and respect her. She was at one
time one of the teachers in our public
schools, which position she held for
several years, and while acting in that
capacity made many near and endearine
friends, who keenly feel the loss and
who sincerely sympathise with the be-
reaved friends. She was also one
prominent among the teachers Of the
Congregational Sabbath School, where
she had laborcd for several years, and
where her presence will be much missed
and a gloom will be left in its stead.

Of this departed wife, mother, daughter
and sister, have the earnest sympathy

Railroad News.

Gen. Il. A. Alger, president Of the
Bay City, Alpena, and Lake Shore
Railroad Co, passed through town last
Monday, on his way to Detroit, From
him we learn that the prospects for the
early completion Of the road are most
promising. He expressed himself as
confident that the road would be complet-
ed, equipped, and in operation by the
close of navigation-the coming fall.
Surveying parties are now on the
route, and the line will be established
and surveyed as soon as possible, when
a large force will be put to work upon
the construction. Gen. Alger stated
that negotiations are pending with the
Michigan Central Co. by which his
company hope to secure the permanent
use Of the track Of the j., L. & s.
road from ctandish to Bay City, thus
saving the construction Of some -
lies Of road. In that event, the
route will undoubtedly be from Stan
ish direct to Alabaster, thence along
the shore to Tawas, and direct to Au
SabIo, crossing the river at or below
the state road bridge, thence following
the shore to Greenbush, Huntsville,
Altoona and Black River, from which
point it will probably strike back from
the shore in northwesterly direction
and 50 on to Alpena. The surveyors
were expected at Oscoda last Monday
from which point they will begin their
work.-Iosco Gazette.

The Ionia Investigation.

The charges against Warden Graf
ton, now under investigation by legis-
lative committee at Ionia, are briefly :
THAT he is incompetent to perform
the duties of the office. 2.-That he
has wilfully violated the duties of his
office. 3.-That he has wilfully vio-
lated the duties of his Office as pre-
scribed by statute and the rules gov
erning the institution. 4.-That he is
corrupt in the management Of the in
stitution and is putting money in his
own pocket at the expense of the State.
There are FIVE other charges that
traverse somewhat the same ground.
The examination is exciting great in
terest in Ionia and attracting attention
throughout the State. Evidence so far
indicates that Grafton should have
been relieved long since and most GER
tainly never have been reappointed.-

Immigration.

1--WE sincerely trust says the De
troit Free Press, that the Legislature
will not adjourn without taking some
step toward securing for Michigan its
share Of the enormous immigration
which is now going on and is sure 10
continue throughout the year. Al
ready the number landed at New Yorl,
since the first of January exceeds the
number for the corresponding period
last year by nearly $4,000; and under
the operations of the Irish Land bill it
is morally certain that the increase
hereafter will be still more marked.
With the advantages of Michigan pro.
perly represented to these tocming
thousands, the State ought to receive Il
large accession of thrifty. industrious
foreigners, who will not only benefit
themselves, but add immensely to the
wealth and prosperity Of the State.
There is no State in the West or North
west which holds out so many and
varied inducements to the settler as
does Michigan. Her agriculture IS
more diversified than of any State in
the West; while the development of
her forests, her lake traffic and the
railroad construction so rapidly going
on within her borders, create a demand
for labor in every form Land is cheap,
abundant and fertile. Let these facts
be properly put before the immigrants
with something of the same zeal that
characterizes the presentation Of the
claims Of the less favored States, and
Michigan will receive such an influx Of
immigration as the most enthusiastic
believers III her future greatness have
never dreamed of.

4 Sad Affair.

On Monday morning Of this week
our usually quite city was thrown into
considerable excitement over the re-
port that Mrs. F. Fl. Dyer, Of this city,
a lady well known and highly esteemed
had shot herself; and ON inquiry II twas
found that the report was too true. Il
appears from the facts in the matter,
that Mrs. Dyer has been sufferer for
many years, and at times cndures pain
almost unbearable, but she has lived on
with her kind and indulgent husband
and family, in the hope that the time
would soon come when she would re-
cover her health. She has of late been
much afflicted, suffering excruciating
pain, which would drive the sufferer
almost distracted. 1t seems that on
Monday morning Mrs. Dyer was suffer
ing TO such an extent that she was al
most beside herself and during the
temporary absence of her husband
from the room, and really not knowing
what she did, or how she did it, she
seized a revolver from a stand near her
bed, placed the muzzle to her breast,
and drew the trigger Mr. Dyer al
once sprang to the room, and his aston
ishment can only be imagined when he
discovered what had taken place in the
half moment Of his absence from his
wife's bedside. Surgeons were at once
summoned, and all available means
employed to save the life Of the poor
sufferer. The ball penetrated the left
breast just below the shoulder, passing
through and lodging in the back part
of the shoulder, from where it was OK.

A committee of the Legislature has
for some time been wrestling with the
examination into the management of
the Ionia House of Correction, and the
developments thus far have been as
tonishing in the extreme, showing that
abuses have existed in that institution
that should meet with Just condemna-
ton from all parties. Among other
things, the testimony taken at the in
vestigation shows that the prisoners
have been fed on mwholesome food to
such an extent that it was the cause of
wholesale complaint among the con-
victs; also, that pardons had been
dealt in as a matter of merchandise
bought and sold for cash.
