EUREKA"

The drilling for the well at the San
itarinm is progressing with satisfactory
results. At the depth of 6l5 feet has
been found a vein of salt water very
highly magnetized. A specimen is in
the hands of a chemist for analysis,
who pronounces it to be peculiar in its
composition, being the only water of its
kind yet found in Michigan. This vein
will pc preserved and utilized, while
the drilling will be continued to still
greater depth. 1t is believed by experts
that important discoveries will soon be
made.

THE CHILDREN'S BALL.

Through the kindness Of our
friends, Prof. Prunet and the Jones
Brothers, the young folks were made
to enjoy themselves on Wednesday
night. A grand ball, for their benefit
alone, was given at the Court House
Hall and, suffice it to say, they got
full benefit OF it. Every child from
three years Old up was there-some
that could dance. some that couldn't
and some that wouldn't. Ain! what
a grand time they did have; we never
before saw children enjoy themselves
so well. All left the Hall, well sat
isfied, at 10 O clock, when the older
ones took full charge and kept the
ball rolling until a late hour. Mr.. A
J. Bateman acted as floor Manager
for the evening. filling the position
we'll in every respect. This ball, we
suppose. will be the last ofthe season.
