The Salt Well.

The long wanted seven inch tubing for
the salt we'll arrived on the Nashua Sun
day evening and was taken over Monday
morning when the work of putting it
down commenced. They have encOunt-
cred some difficulty in boring by strik-
ing bed of quick sand and boulders.
Mr.. Mason says he could manage either
of them singly but the two combined
make it hard work to get down, the quick
sand running up into the tubing thirty
feet and the bOulders interfering with
the sinking of the tubing, but they keep
at it persistently, and Thursday evening
had the tubing down to depth of 10O
feet. The tubing is forced down by
means of long levers fastened to it by a
clamp and chains. and as they pump it
out with the sand pump the leverage
forces the tubing gradually down. 1t is
hoped that they will soon pass through
this obstruction when they expect the
work to progress more rapidly. Mr.
COners finds the duties of superintendent
quite OnerOus, requiring considerable
portion of his time, but he has faith in
the project and being one Of the leaders
in getting the thing started, is bound tC
see iC through until the question as to
salt in this section is settled.

Governor Jerome's Telegram.

Among the many kilograms of sympa-
thy sent to Washington was the follow
ing from Governor Jerome of our own
state, and we are safe in saying that the
sentiments expressed are fully endorsed
by every citizen of the state.
STATE OF MICHIGAN, EXECUTIVE OFFICE, !
SAGINAW, July 8, 1881.
o. l.. Judd, Private Secretary, Executive Man
sion, Washington, ID. G.
Thanks for your specials. Please keep
me advised as to the cOnditiOn!Of the Pres
ident. The favorable dispatches bring
joy to all. At the proper time please
assure the President and Mrs. Garfield
of my kindly sympathies and coincidence
in the fullest sense of the terms. In this
am Joined by all good people of our

fervent that our President may be spared
to be comfort to his family and to con-
tinue his invaluable services to. the

NORTHERN TRIBUNE,
ntered at the POstoffice at ChebOygan
Mich. as Second Glass Matter.
SATURDAY. JULY 16. 1881.
The Depot Buildings.

The work of completing the depot
buildings has been considerably retarded
owing to the delay in getting the mater
ial. Smith Brothers had contracted to
furnish the dressed lumber and at the
time their mill burned had q consider
able quantity ready, but it went with
the planning gmill. The destruction of the
planning mill made it necessary to pur-
chase material elsewhere and Mr.. ROg-
ers, the contractor made arrangements
in Detroit, and the work is gradually
progressing. The Keweenaw, Sunday,
landed quite an amount of dressed lum-
ber, among which was the flooring for
the two buildings. That for the passen-
ger depot is two inches thick and for the
warehouse three inches, all matched.
Both buildings will be fine, substantial
affairs, but up in the best manner. The
shingles on both were laid in cement
This is to prevent the building from be-
ing burned by sparks from locomotives
falling upon the roofs. Should the
shingles catch fire, the cement would
prevent the fire from burning anything
else. The freight warehouse has plat
form, twelve feet wide, on each side the
full length of the building. The passen-
ger depot will be one of the best finished
along the line and in keeping with the
promising Importance of Cheboygan as
station. We understand that the con-
tract price for the freight house is $4,000
and for the passenger depot $4,000. We
also understand Mr.. Rogers has con-
tract for building all the station build
ings along the extension and number
for the d., NJ. & Nj. road on the upper
peninsula.

Accident to the Nnsh IA.

The propeller Nashua met with quite
a serious accident last week on her trip
down. She arrived at Cleveland Thurs
day morning with rail on port side, one
stanchieOn, pantry, and captains room
all gone. The pilot house was turned
around and the top of the cabin was
broken from forward to amidships, the
result of collision at Huron at A. NJ.
that morning with the schooner Atmos-
phere. The Atmosphere was lying at the
pier with no lights displayed, and the
main boom swung over the side. Conse-
quently Captain Shay did not see her.
The main boom did the word, and in do
ing it narrowly escaped killing the mate,
the steward and the clerks wife. Not
withstanding the accident she arrived
up on time last Sunday evening, having
carpenters on board repairing damage.
Capt. Shay informs us that it is the in
tentiOn to build texas on her, while
the carpenters are at work, which will
alter her appearance very much.

The Fourth on Burt Lake.

Ohio Settlement.
Burt Lake Michigan, July Sth, 1881.
Cheboygan Tribune.
The warm weather of recent date
makes a very material difference in the
look of crops, and in fact, in the look
of the people. During the cool weather
of June, peoples faces seemed to grow
more in length than the corn did in
height, but now very noted change has
taken place, everything looks promising,
and everybody in good spirits.
We paid honor to our great national
holiday in the way of neighbOrhOOd
picnic, place of gathering being on the
shore of Burt Lake.
Dinner was announced about one
o'clock and such dinner no one need
attempt to describe it, only faint idea
of the many good things that was on that
table, placed there by those that know
just how to prepare the right things for
the right place. Cakes, pies, roast chick,
ems, ice cream, lemonade, and many
other good things were placed before us
and we set to work with hearty good
will to satisfy our appetite. When we
had done justice to ourselves in this
direction we were compelled to say
there is enough and yet to spare. Next
in order was speeches by different per
sons, after which we set sail for Indian
Point. After taking in all of the scenery
there we again set sail for the residence
of Z. II. Sager where previous arrange
ments had been made for an evening
chat and once more to feast upon ict
cream &C., &c. When the hour came tC
separate each one felt that the 4th O1
Of July was day we'll spent.

McKay-Smith Timber Suit.

The McKay-Smith embroglia over the
cedar ties and posts cut at the north
shore seems to have broken out afresh.
The Detroit Evening News of last Satur-
day says: "John L. Smith, of Buffalo.
was served by Marshal Mathews this
morning with capias from the United
States grand jury for alleged perjury,
and started out at last accounts to get
$4,000 bail. The indictment is based on
the complaint of Mr.. Mckay, with
whom Smith has been having long
litigation in the United States courts
about lot of lumber and hoop poles in
the northern part of the state. Smith
expected the capias, and in fact Judge
Brown fixed the amount of his bail before
leaving for Europe, and the prisoner was
not actually kept in custody by the mar
shal after the capias was served.
Mr.. Smith, who arrived here the first
of the week, says the News made mis-
take in regard to the amount of bail that
it was only $500. for which amount he
furnished satisfactory bondsmen. The
propeller Lowell and barge Fame left
here Tuesday night for Toledo, O., with
cargOes of the disputed timber.

Michigan Military.

There has been considerable talk about
where the state military encampment
should be located this year, many places
having been mentioned among them
Mackinac island which place was strong
ly advocated by the Post and Tribune as
the most suitable, from the fact that it
was easy of access, possessed a fine
parade ground and the brave boys would
not be suffocated with heat nor devOured
by mosquitoes. A special telegram from
Lansing to the Chicago Inter-Ocean says
that the State Military Board, have de-
cided to hold no encampmentO of the state
troops, this year, on account of the limit
ed amount of funds appropriated for the
militia by the Legislature. The action
of the board is very demoralizing to the
troops, and is considered by the officers
as virtual disbandment for the present.
The board will detail three companies of
forty men each to attend the Yorktown
celebration, the Legislature having ap-
propriated $4,000 to defray expenses.

where Were Those Brains.

There are times, when man stops to
think of the past, when he wants to 60
off by himself and kick himself. The
writer sold, less than two years ago, the
Bay City Penny Press for $500, just
enough to pay the debts Of the paper, and
the same paper to-day, cannot be pur-
chased for $4,000 in cash, and will pay
twenty-five per cent profit on $4,000,

A couple of young men, passengers on
the Van Raalte, had a set too on the boat
while she was at Mackinac last evening.
The trouble originated over young lady
that both were paying attentions to, and
the one that got left commenced the
fracas. RevOlvers were exhibited by
both,a but captain Bouchard proved
master Of the situation and disarmed
them.

AMystery About ARENAS Ward.

Among the myteries of his life, and
they are many, none was greater than
that involving the total disappearance
of his property at the time of his death.
Mr.. MaXfield, his administrator, who
knew much of his affairs, says that
while he did not have as much money
as was generally supposed, yet, being
in his room in Waterford, one day, just
before his departure for England, and
while he was arranging his business at
fairs, $50 that" as Charles said, "if
anything should happen, mother will
be all right" he saw pile of notes on
the table amounting to about twelve
thousand dollars, which he thought was
all the money Charles had. He had Il
valuable gold watch and chain. The
chain was of solid gold, present from
the California miners, very heavy,
though plainly wrought, and worth
alone several hundred dollars. He had
also diamond pin of considerable val
ne, and two diamond rings. Besides,
his last season in London was very SUE
cesSful for some six weeks he Melted
three hundred dollars night. He was
also literally paid for his contributions
to ''Punch." But of all this his mother
never received IL cent, and not so much
as single relic. Previous to his death
he had cleared the old homestead of
debt, and had willed to his mother Il
small property at Yonkers, n. Y. What
became of the rest -Scribner for May.

A Cradle in the Clouds.

Writing of ''Thc Wild Sheep of the
Sierra in the May Scribner, John
Muir says:
".In the months of May and June,
they bring forth their young, in the
most solitary and inaccessible crags,
far above the nesting-rocks of the
eagle. | have frequently come upon
the beds of the ewes and lambs at an
elevation of from twelve to thirteen
thousand feet above sea level. These
beds are simply oval shaped hollows,
paved out among loose, diSintegrating
rock-chips and sand, upon some sunny
spot commanding Il good outlook, and
partially sheltered from the winds that
sweep those lofty peaks almost without
intermisSiOn. Such is the cradle of
the little mOuntaineer, alOft i'll the
very sky: rocked in storms, curtaincd
in clouds, sleeping in thin, icy air;
but wrapped in his hairy coat, and
nOurished by Il strong, warm mother,
defended from the talOns of the eagle
and teeth of the sly coyote, the bonnie
lamb grows apace. He soon learns to
nibble the tufted rOck-grasses and
leaves of the white spirGa his horns
begin to shoot. and before summer is
done he is strong and agile, and goes
forth with the flock, watched by the
same divine love that tends the more
helpless human lamb in its warm era
