Runaway-Narrow Escape.

Yesterday afternoon the delivery
team belonging to Potter Bros. d Co.,
driven by George Holmes, became
frightened and run away, causing con-
siderable excitement, as it was attend
ed with the danger Of the driver meet
ing an untimely end
1t seems that Mr.. Holmes went to
the north side of the river to deliver
some goods on Fletcher street, and
while backing up to the sidewalk, the
wagon partly overturned, throwing
some of the goods to the ground, and
precipitating Holmes from the seat
down between the horses to the tongue
of the wagon. The team at once start
ed down Fletcher street at a rapid pace,
while the driver still chung to the pole.
All efforts of the men on the streets to
stop the frightened animals only seemed
to spur them on, and away they sped,
around the corner at Bolton a. Nc
Rae's, and across the bridge at full
gallop. Still on they went up Second
street, Holmes continuing to hold on
in his perilous position, till the corner
of Chisholm street was turned, and
again at the Centennial block they
made another turn down First street.
BY this time Holmes had lost part of
his hold on the tongue and merely
clutching the pole with his hands,
which soon loosened and he was left be.
hind. When the team reached point
near the Episcopal parsonage, they
were turned toward the walk, and
jumping through the parsonage fence,
they were soon captured. Mr.. Holmes
was taken into a buggy by Mr.. Field
and conveyed to the drug store, where
liniments were applied to his bruised
limb, which seemed to be the only in
jury that he sustained beyond n severe
fright.
How the young man escaped death
was n miracle to all. The team was
uniniured.

WaldrOn a. Chapelle.

This excellent theatrical company
opened the season for this week at the
Opera House by producing the celc-
brated play Of "Richelieu" for Mon,
day evening, to well filled house, and
the audience from the very first APP
preciatcd the fact that they were be-
ing entertained by one of the best
troups now Oh the American stage.
Mr.. Waldron, in the role of Richcleu,
performed his part in manner that
showed clearly that he had but fcw il
any equals in the United States, he
possessing all the requisites Of thorough
and natural tragedian, and during the
entire performance he acquitted him
self in a manner that frequently
drought down the house" Chas.
Chappellc, as De Mouprat, came fully
up to the mark, and proved himself an
actor Of fine talent, well fitted for the
important part chat he performed So
perfect. Mrs. Waldron, as Julia, main
tanned her position with dignity, and
achieved wonderful success. She pos
esSes the faculty of throwing her whole
soul into the character she plays, and
her face expressions of love, hatred
fear and adherence were vivid, natural
and graceful, and she won the ADM.
ration Of the audience by her easy and
graceful manners, Lolita Beaumont
although acting a minor part, was well
up to the business in hand, and the
character Of the faithful page lost
nothing at her hands. Petit, pretty,
modest and graceful, she rendered the
page of the seventeenth century true to
life. MIR. Game as Count de Baradas
and Seton as the Friar performed
their parts crcditably and with spirit,
and taking the troupe as Il whole, we
venture the assertion, without fear OF
contradiction, that it is the best theatri-
cal troupe that has ever appeared be-
fore an Alpena audience, and we hope
that our people will give them full
houses every night
Last night they presented the play
Of Lady Of Lyons, and as on Monday
evening, all were well up in their parts
and performed admirably.

Dounelly, and then a song by the Glee
Club. Mrs. Y. NJ. Knight then APP
peared upon the platform and read u
very interesting and appropriate poem,
selected for the occasion, which was
listened to with marked attention, and
duly appreciated by the well filled
house Of spectators. AT the conclu-
sion Of the poem, the Glee Club sang
another patriotic song, when Rev. A.
W. Westgate took the stand and de-
livcred the memorial address in man
ncr that indicated that his whole heart
was in the work before him, while the
audience gave their earnest attention
from the beginning to the close. The
Gle6 Club again sounded their musi-
cal voices through the edifce, and then
Rev. f, n. Barlow pronounced the
Benediction, after which the Band IA
vored the audience with another OF
their beautiful pieces of music, and
this concluded the ceremonies of Deco
ration Day in Alpena for 1881.

Two weeks since the steamer Pearl
was reported as having had on board
over $50 passengers from Port Huron.
We do occasionally hear Of other boats
carrying large numbers of passenger
the number in many instances far ex-
ceeding their accommodating capacity.
1t seems to us that very severe lessons
have been taught in the past as to over
loaded boats. The license Of each boat
distinctly says that she may carry so
many passengers, and when that num-
Der is over-reached, there is u violation,
as it were, Of the laws that regulate
and govern steamboats, as to the carry
ing of human freight. In case Of ac-
cident, in ninety-nine cases out of
every hundred, when boat is over
crowded with passengers, the loss of
life is due to the fact that there is not
sufficient life-saving apparatus aboard
to accommodate all, for the simple
reason that the boat only carries suffi-
cient for the number Of passengers she
is licensed to carry. There are also
other dangers attending the overload
ing of steamboats,, and the late disas-
ter near London, Ont, which resulted
in the death Of over two hundred hui
man beings, and put the whole city of
London in mourning, should be a sol
emn warning, and no risks should be
allowed to be taken.

An agricultural society, called the
Northeastern Agricultural Society Of
Michigan, which is to hold its first fair
at East Saginaw, commencing Sept.
9th next, and continuing four days,
has been formed, with Hon. Isaac
Marston as President, and Summers
Howard as Secretary. This we be-
lieve is n step that if carried out cor
rectly will be of vast benefit to the
whole of northeastern Michigan Geo.
w. Stuart, of Genesee county, visited
this city last week in the interest OF
this society, and placed the matter Of
soliciting membership from this county
in the hands of j. X. Lockwood and
S. A. l.. Warner. The membership
fee is one dollar each, and we trust that
Alpena county may be well represented,
and that steps will be taken to further
the agricultural interests Of the whole
shore by aiding in the success of the
organization. There are no better
means by which the superior quality OF
our lands can be shown to the farming
world, than to have suitable exhibits
at such fairs, and this society is one in
the interest of the whole Of the north
eastern portion of the State.

We Have Taken

This space to inform the public of
what we are doing in the dry goods
and carpet business. It is well
known to allobservers that the cash
plan makes the lowest prices, and
being DESTROYS of making our city
headquarters for carpets and dry
goods we have adopted this plan,
viz: to buy and sell for cash. Our
business has very largely increased
in consequence, and this spring we
are showing a larger and finer as
sortment Of desirable goods than
