st. Mary's.

Last Sunday was completely filled with
services fraught with historic worth and
sacred associations at st. Mary's, under
the direction of Bishop Richter, well
calculated to deeply impress the mind
and improve the heart. For centuries
Confirmation services in the Roman
Catholic church have had extraordinary
significance, and the 125 confirmed last
Sunday realized what millions have
done IA passing through the experience,
and the fact that FOR hours the large
audience was enrhained by the solemn
religious ceremonies is proof of the
healthful condition of the church. The
Bishop conducted the elaborate service
with satisfaction to all, making a very
fine impression by his visit here. His
sermon was intensely Catholic; In pri-
vate the Bishop is an educated. cultured
gentleman, very affable, kind, and en-
joyable. Father DeSmedt has every
reason to rejoice in the wonderful har-
mony, efficiency. and prosperity of his
church

A Sad Affair.

ALBANY ISLAND, July 22nd., 1883.
Editor NORTHERN TRIBUNE.
Avery sad affair occurred about 12
miles from here last week. An old lady
named Laun visited Mrs. Watson, and
when returning home lost her way.
This was on Thursday, the goth. She
was in the habit of using tobacco quite
freely, and had been without it for sew
eral days, and also without tea, and it
Is feared that from absence of these
stimulants her mind became affected.
Her husband and one son came here to
Mr.. Little6elds camp to- get work, but
as he had work for the son only, the
father returned home, and it was the
night of his absence that the old lady
got lost. She was not found until to-
day, Sunday, making four days she was
out, and portion of the time amid a
terrible storm, When found she, was
dead, and had evidently been SO for some
time. She had lost her shoes, and from
appearances seemed to have died after a
great struggle. The strangest part is
the fact that she was found only half a.
mile from her home, in which was q
small round clock, that stood on shelf,
and just as the searching party fred a
gun as signal she had been found, the
clock fell with crash to the floor, and
was badly mashed. She was between so
and 60 years old, and was a smart active
woman, and respected by all who knew
her. She leaves husband and three
! grown up children to mourn her loss.

of Grand Haven, assisted by Prof. f. A.
Barbour, of COldwater. These gentle
men are experienced educators, and
stand at the top of the profession in the
state. The session under their their in
struction cannot fail to prove profitable
and interesting, and no teacher can af-
ford to absent themselves from the in

keep your tools sharp. Two lectures will
be delivered in the evening at some of
the churches, during the week, and Prof,
Fairfield suggests that Monday evening,

The Concert.

Music lovers gathered at the Opera
House last evening prepared for a feast,
and were rewarded with two happy
hours of musical enjoyment, that was at
once delightful, refining and profitable.
The programme hal been finely arrang-
ed, and was executed without blunder,
and in very fine taste. The audience
seemed to be hungry for music, and with
remarkable good humor and keen relish,
consumed all that was given them, with
out showing any tiring or uneasiness.
The more frequent such concerts are
given the faster the community will ad-
vance in the right direction. We con-
gratulate the ladies of the COngrega-
tiOnal Church in contributing to the hap
piness of our people. We were glad to
notice several persons from the different
churches. .and feel assured that at no
distant day music, in Cheboygan, will
receive the encouragement, patronage,
and attention it should.
