that two or three somewhat dangerous
wounds had been inflicted. Conroy was
locked up by Officer Mccarthy.
The gradual disappearance of the snow
and no rain is causing considerable appre-
hension among the lumbsrmen, lest the
low water in the different streams should
seriously interfere with the drive, and a
large proportion of the logs cut remain on
the bank where they were put last winter
until too late to be made available for the
| seasons trade.

particular friends of the couple we're pres

ceremony, the happy pair started on their
wedding toSr, being accompanied to the
depot by few of their we'll wishing

The Republican city convention was
held at O'Clock P. m. at the city hall yes
terday. The duty of nominating candi-

pointed Jos. Schupp, A. Donald and j.
| Deragish as such committee. A formal
ballot for candidate for city treasurer
resulted in ten votes for Leonard Clark
and seven for Julius Dual. After the
transaction of some routine business the
convention adjourned.

with smallpox and taken to the pest house
On Wednesday last, belongs at Taylor's
| falls, but has recently been engaged in log
glng near Shell lake, Wisconsin. The symp-
toms manifested by the patient yesterday
| do not indicate an attack of the dreaded
disease. The board of health have taken
every possible precaution to keep the pes

have been crowned with success, and it is
! sincerely to be hoped they may be equally
successful in the future.
An accident occurred yesterday morn
ing whick narrowly escaped being at
tended with serious results. The delivery
wagon of Sawyer & Thing was backed up
to the rear entrance of the firms place of
business, and while being loaded the
engine on the transfer road gave the signal
to down the breaks, but the approaching

vent a collision. The vehicle with the
horse attached was pushed along the track

a few slight scratches.
Although the copper mine owned by
Isaac Staples in the vicinity of Crotty's
| creek, Wis.,, gave indications of being a
IL l. j..
for nearly year. This was done, partly
for the reason that the thirty-foot shaft
that had bsen sunk filled with water faster
than 1t could be discharged by the pumps
used. Further, it was discovered that to
make any Roadway in sinking tbs shaft a
costly diamond drill became a necessity.
In addition to this cost other heavy ex-
penses would have to be incurred TO make
q proper opening of the mine. A stock
company will probably be formed at no
very distant day, as all accounts agree that
there are deposits near Crotty's creek and

As noas Of the churches in Saltwater
are provided with a pipe organ the ladies
of Ascension congregation are making de-
termined efforts to secure an instrument
of the kind fer uss in that church. With
that purpose in view a number Of plans
have been devised TO secure the necessary
amount of funds. DHIing the past winter
q magnificent quilt has been oonplsted.
which is valued at $3.50. A corresponding
number of tickets have been issued, the
most Of which have been disposed of at 81
each. 1t has been suggested that an enter
tainmsnt of some kind be held on the even
ing selected for the drawing, for which no
definite time has yet been named. The
beautiful piece of handiwork referred to is
on exhibition at the establishment Of Inc
Misses Fields. No particular pattern has
been followed, but rather the grouping OF
many designs, all artistically arranged 10
produce the most pleasing effect.
Too much praise cannot be awarded the
ladies of the relief committee for their
disinterested labors in behalf of the suffer
ing posr in this city during the past win
ter. Many sick and destitute families
have bsen relieved in quiet and unosten-
tatious way by this society, who would
otherwise have been compelled TO ask pub
lie assistance. In many of the cases re-
ferred to such course would have proved
almost as grievous as actual starvation. |
This constant demand on the |
society has nearly exhausted its
funds, so that some plan must be adopted |
to fill tbs depleted treasury. A meeting |
of the several committees is called for next |
Monday afternoon at O'Clock, at the |
rooms of the Y. NJ. G. A., when the best |
means of securing the ends in view will be |
discussed. A public entertainment of |
some description has been suggested. If |
such should be the decision of the commit |
tees, no matter what kind of an entertain |
ment, it will undoubtedly be literally pat
ronized blythe people of Saltwater.
