Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1889-09-18

Sundays gale caught the propeller
Burkhead and tow near Presque Isle,
They were lumber laden from Detour.
About one o'clock in the afternoon
the barge Sherman, one of the tow,
began to leak extensively. All hands
were stationed at the pumps but fail
ed to free the craft of water. The
pumping work was kept up until eight
o'clock, by which time the crew were
thoroughly exhausted by the inces-
SAINT pumping. They began to get
discouraged but kept the pumps going,
hoping to reach the smooth water Of
Thunder Bay. About that time the
crew of the Thunder Bay Island life
saving station had discovered their sit.
uation and come to the rescue, and
from eight o'clock in the evening un-
til Monday morning the life saving
boys kept at work at the pumps. The
captain of the Sherman speaks very
highly of the work done by the life
saving crew, and says If they had not
arrived that he certainly would have
lost his deck load of lumber, as his
own crew could not have worked the
Alpena weekly argus. [volume] (Alpena, Mich.) 1871-1893, 1889-09-18

pumps much longer. His only ex-
pectation in reaching the bay was that
the barge would settle even, as he
knew if she waterlogged while out in
the sea that there was probability Of
serious disaster, having had an ex-
perience of that kind some time ago.
The barge was brought here Monday
morning and left in the river, the life
saving crew accompanying her until
she was safe in this port. The barge
Jones, of the same tow, had % inches
of water in her when she got here
The rest Of the tow were all right.
Men were engaged here to man the
pumps on both barges. One of the
Sherman's crew said his arm felt as if
it was twenty feet long, caused by in
cessant pumping. 1--WE couldn't have
stood it much longer" said the cap
tain to our reporter, because it was
steady pump without any rest for sew
en- hours, and no prospect ahead of
gaining on the leak. That discour-
aged the men, and you may we'll be-
lieve that we were mighty well pleas
ed when the life saving boys came on
board and released us from the pumps.
If they had not come our deck load
would have gone" The Sherman
was examined by diver, patched up,
and has left for her destination,

That Pine Land Sale.

When representative of the Au-
Sable Saturday Night called on Mr.
Potts and inquired about the land
(reported in the ARGUS last week. he
said
II know nothing of any pine land
deal. We have bought no pine land
at ALL"
When shown the ARGUS item he
denied the truth of it at once, and
said:
"That is a good piece Of pine land,
but we do not care to buy it. We
have all we care to have on our hands
just at present"
"Well, you would buy that piece
of land if it could be bought reason
able enough"
ooh, yes, of course, we are always
open to do business if it comes our
way"
"Would it not pay you to buy that
land and extend your road to it, bring
ing the timber to your mill here ?"
"Well, it might don't know. 1t
would depend on what we had to pay
for the land"
In regard to the above, we can say
that we have interviewed the Alpena
party interested, and obtained the fol-
lowing: The owner of the said lands
wrote the Messrs. Churchill some time
ago, and sent them descriptions of the
same, also stating terms. The Messrs.
Churchill had the pine on the said
lands examined, and then wrote the
owner for more information in regard
to the terms. The answer they re-
ceiyed was that Mr.. Potts had just
bought the lands, but was willing to
sell. Last week the Messrs. Church
i'll received another letter from the
owner of the lands, which stated that
he believed Mr.. Potts would sell the
said lands for $4,000. Now, as Mr..
Potts says he has not purchased the
lands, it looks as if the owner was
trying to work sharp scheme to get
a very large price for his pine on the
North Branch.

Late Friday night burglars broke
into the hardware store of the Potter
Brothers on Second street. An en-
trance was effected through one of the
back windows. Some revolvers and
other goods and about 81 were stolen.
Marshal White Immediately began
the search for the burglars, and it was
not long before he had located them,
being assisted by sheriff McCandlish.
The result of their investigations led
to the arrest of Albert Greyson.
Some of the stolen property was
found OH him, and then he stated the
whole case. His statement led to the
arrest of Ernest Finnigan, and the re-
covery of the valuable Smith & Yves.
son revolvers, some cartridges and
pocket knives. The money taken
from the till had been spent. The
two young men were brought before
Justice Clothier, Monday. They
pleaded not guilty, and the examina-
ton was continued until yesterday
when the Justice committed Greyson
for trial at the Circuit Court. Fin
nigan was acquitted.

The Palmer New York theatrical
troupe commenced their seasons work
at the Opera House last Wednesday
night, the drama being "Hoop of
Gold" Being the first night the play
did not run as smooth as if the COM
pany had been at work several months.
The stage settings were elegant and
fully equal to what was advertised
The play is strong one, but was not
acted in manner to satisfy the crit.
ical. j. P. Hill, as "Scotty," was the
life of the drama, and good work was
done by j. H. Browne, who represent
ed the character of scheming villain.
The acting of the two leaders, Miss
Selma Swanton, as Ruth Bullion"
and William Cooney, as Orchard
Wrench" did not come up to what
was expected of them. The river
scene was a fine stage effect. The dra-
ma was repeated Thursday, and gave
better satisfaction. We have no
doubt but that the company will give
a much better entertainment when
they get more familiar with their
parts.
