In the Supreme Court yesterday after
noon in the case OF Patrick McCusker
against John Mitchell, the jury returned a
verdict for $500 damages. This case was q
suit for trespass.
McCusker claimed that Mitchell had
dumped dirt on his land and In other ways
injured the estate. The jury returned
verdict OF GOO damages. Mitchell asked
for new trial, on exceptions, and on the
claim that the verdict was against the evil
dence. The Court thinks that there was
sufficient evidence to sustain the verdict.
The exceptions are overruled.
Mr.. McCusker gets his 800, but because
OF the alleged improper use Of the writ of
arrest he has to pay all the costs of pro-
ceedings In both courts.
The suit was, In reality, one to deter
mine the boundary line between two es-
tates, and involved the title to strip Of
land.

trial in the Supreme Court on April Is.
This case Is q bill In equity to set aside q

DRY GOODS.

New York, June 1.-THE reduction in
American prints was the point of interest
IN to-day's dry goods markets. This was
not altogether unexpected, as it was
known that the agents were anticipating
a leveling of prices. to conform with the
market. The trade in all cotton lines
except staples, has been of fair proper
tons, prints being in general lines in fair
demand. In staple cottons the demand has
been small, although an average for the
week is reported in some quarters to be
better than week ago. The market for
bleached goods is unqualifiedly dull. Den
inns and other coarse colored cottons are
duh in most grades. Print cloths are qui-
eter than has recently been the case.
Prints are fairly active in fancy lines.

position to sell cotton in the face of i'm

some time, but the weather in the south

market gradually gave way. August

The Teachers Institute.

The state teachers institute for
Baraga county, an outline of which
was given in THE SENTINEL last
week, will be held at the high school
in this city, commencing at 10
clock a. m, Monday, Sept. 9th,
and closing at 4 p. m, Friday,
Sept. 10th.
There is no doubt as to the value
of "a good live institute, and ex-
perience proves that as a rule the
most successful and progressive
teachers are those who avail them
selves of the work given at such
meetings. Special attention will
be given to botany, physics and
algebra, in order to assist those
teachers who are trying to pass for
second grade certificates, and it is
hoped that such teachers will be
thinking and studying over these
subjects along the lines suggested
in the outline. In this way they
may be helped over any difficulties
they may have met in the prepara-
tion of these branches.
The law allows teachers to close
their schools during the continuance
of such institute, without forfeiting
their wages, for as many half days
as they are in attendance at the in
stitute. 1t is expected that every
teacher in the county will close
school and be present at every ses-
sion during the week
