Aoueer Jaii bro.

About four o'clock this morning Geo.
Gaumond, who was waiting with rig In
front OF the New Lloyd House, had his
attention attracted toward the timber be-
yond Meadow brook by an unusual com.
motion, and the next minute deer came
bounding over the clearing followed by
two dogs. On reaching the creek the
deer jumped in and swan under the bridge
where his further progress was impeded
by the boxing around the water pipe
crossing on Main street.
Procuring the assistance of four or five
men and q small boat Mr.. Gaumond drove
the hunted animal outof his hiding place
andeaptured him in the creek. After
securely fastening his feet with ropes he
was taken to the county jail and locked
up.
The deer was alarge.4-year a. old buck.
He had a fresh bullet wound in the breast,
indicating that someone had been hunt
ing with .'bulrs-eye.' Whether he
will live or not is question.

Our neighbor OF the Baraga Democrat
is evidently one of those who thorough!
believes IN the old saw, HE who tootett
not his own horn, the same shall not bt
footed" and as applied to his particular
4 case the position is probably well taken.
In so far as the Democrat has been con-
tented to indulge in morbid exaggera.
alton of its own importance and excel
lence, and to put forth such extravagant
claims as ''the only paper in the county
that publishes all the news" 'the best
paper In the county" and other silly and
sclf-laudatory expressions. the SENTINEL.
has been content to pass them by ul-
noticed.
In last weeks Democrat, however,
appears the following item:
/, The Democrat was the only paper In
| Baraga county giving the result of the
state convention held at Grand Rapids
last week. If youwant all the news take
the Democrat.
Here is plain statement of fact. not
merely an absurdly expressed opinion OF
the editor, that we are not disposed to
let go unchallenged. II our neighbor
will take the trouble to look he will find
on the editorial page Of the SENTINEL OF
June 30th the result of the convention
held June 2sth, and our account OF the
matter was origisal--not clipped bodily
from the Mining Journal as was that
printed In the Democrat, for which IT
takes to itself such great credit.
The SENTINEL makes no absurd claim
as that it publishes all the news, and the
paper that does is either taking or is in
ordinately self-.onceited. We give such
news as we think will interest and bene-
lit the people Of the county, and II the
lives of hundreds Of people are endanger-
ed through supply Of impure water. or
from congregatiug in an unsafedance hall
our readers will generally Gnd warning
in the columns Of the SENTINEL. II
Madame Grundy takes walk from the
kitchen door to an outhouse, or crosses
the street to neighbor's, the fact will
not appear in the SENTINEL. hence We
do not give all the news.
Once for ALI we are not disposed to
quarrel with our neighbor. The Demo
crat is very creditable local paper, aud
though we do not approve Of some things !
concerning the conduct thereof we fully |
realize that its methods are no concern |
to US unless It makes stab at our.busi-
ness as 1t did In this case. Hence II the
SENTINEL's toes are not trod upon there
will be no kicking from this quarter for
we are well satisfied with both our sub
scription list and advertising patronage.

Look To Your F.ui. r. e.s.

I We have noticed number OF frnit
trees In this vicinity which appear to be
suffering from some kind OF blight. The
topmost twigs and leaves become affected
first, the leaves dry up and turn brown.
The disease works gradually toward the
trunk. and. II not checked, will probably
destroy the tree.
Mr.. J. @. McKernan had valuable
pear tree Ia his garden which has been
affected In this manner, and desiring to
save the tree II possible. he wrote for
information TO the agricultural college
and received the following reply from
l.. Il. Taft, professor of the horticultural
department.:
AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,
July o, 1894
Mk. q. MckERNAN, L'Anse, Mich.
DEAR Sin: Yourseof July 5th has
been referred to me. regret, however,
that cannot do much to help. Judge
that your trouble is the twig blight which
Is much like the so-called fire blight OF
the pear. differing only in the fact that it
works more slowly.
1t was probably caused by some un-
favorable climatic conditions either In
winter or spring, and nothing can be
done to check it except to cut off aud
burn the diseased limbs as soon as they
appear.
IL this is done promptly and the cuts
are made below where there is any effect
of the disease you can generally stop it.
had the same thing show this spring in
one Of our pear orchards and cut out the
wood that showed the disease. 1t

show again. Although this remedy is
not altogether effective there is nothing
else thai can be done.
Yours Very. Truly,
l.. Il. TAFT.
