LETTER FROM DIR. WRIGHT.
He Is Improving, and Hopes Soon to
Return to His work.

The following from the Religious Herald
will be read with interest b. the nu-
merous friends Of the popular minister 10
whom it refers:
The following extract from private
note from DR.. w. l.. Wright, soJourning
at Troy, n. c., we venture to print as oil
pleasing interest TO a great most OF
friends in Richmond. Virginia, North
Carolina, and, indeed, throughout the
country. We trust the hopeful indica-
lions may all be speedily realized, and
that he may be fully able to take up his
great work at an early day. In his tenn
porary invalidsm he has had the hearty
and constant sympathy Of US all:
you ask about my health. 1 am glad
TO say that my voice is almost normal l
have refrained from preaching, but last
Sunday the colored people sent me a
pressing invitation TO assist them In the
organization of a church in the court
house. This is a large building, and a
cousin who sat on the very last seat
said afterwards: Your voice is clear. L
heard you distinctly / have felt the de-
preston OF summer but not more than
in years past. / expect to return to my
work the 1st OF September or the LIST or
October, as the church may prefer. we
are all having a quiet rest here, within
a few feet of the spot where the old
home stood. We have plenty Of room,
good water, and shade. The children
were never so free and happy before.
II get the papers and keep up with
thought and work of our denomination,
and / want TO offer a resolution for adop-
tion by the Baptists OF the world-viz
Resolved. That henceforth the Baptists
OF the world spend no more time on the
question of apostolic succession. but bend
ali their energies, till Christ shall come,
on the work Of apostolic progression"
We second his resolution most warmly.

arrived in the city yesterday afternoon
and will remain several days on business
connected with their popular fraternal
organization. Mr., Emens is the success
or OF J. p. Edwards, OF Houghton. A
special review OF Calumet Tent was held
last evening and was well attended.
Quite a number OF members OF the Lauri-
um Tent were also in attendance. Mr..
Emens outlined his plans for work during
his visit in the copper country. He in.
tends to awaken new interest in the
lodge and will endeavor to secure num-
Der OF new members. Calumet Tent is in a
fourishing condition and is one the ban
Der tents OF the state. The tent at
Laurium is also in good shape, consider
ing the fact that it was but recently or
gained. 1t already compares more than
favorably with a number OF the older
lodges in point OF membership and the
condition OF the finances.

Only "A Wicked Rumor.

A rumor has been in circulation that
the 81. & G. railroad company had left a
locomotive standing for som weeks in
a cut out on the so called Arctic division
TOR the express purpose OF allowing the
snow to accumulate about it with the in
tie ltion OF having picture taken to be
sent down to the railroad committee at
Lansing to show what the companies
have to contend with during our severe
winters.
The officials say that in order to avoid
the expense OF keeping the cut open by
digging they let train OF cars, not a
locomotive, stand there and by which
means there is a great saving. Never
theless as there has been some enquiry
for photographer to take view OF the
train, the facts should be known in case
it might be used for the purpose above
mentioned. The railroa officials say
that just now people are ready to believe
anything about the roads; on the other
hand the railroad officials are smart
enough to make a point wherever pos.
sible and this may be one.

Thompson Is Cham
pion of Houghton
County,
HE Defeats Albert Davey.
Baeker Tried to buy the Race
-Otner News.

A race that has been more talked of
and that has created ss much interest as
any event of its kind ever pulled of in
the county took place at the Park ice
rink last evening and resulted in an
easy victory for Elmer Thompson, who
now holds the championship OF the coun-
ty. The crowd that was present was
excited from the time the doors were
open until after the race aud during the
race we're yelling and cheering the two
skaters. When it became evident that
Thompson had won the excitement knew
no bounds and Thompson was the b 70
OF the hour.
The ice was in very po)r condition,
there being an inch or so of water on il.
The crowd was only allowed to skate a
few minutes, when the race was called at
S:45. William Newtown, Joseph Schroe-
der and Josiah Harper were chosen as
Judges and Frank Kohlhaas actei as
starter. The skaters got away even ard
for the first few rounds appeared to be
about opposite each other. In the fourth
FOUND it could be seen that Thompson
was gradually gaining and increasing his
Sead every round. He finished the race
about quarter OF lap ahead The
tine was 1856. which is good, consider
iog the soft condition the ice was ia.
A good many dollars changed hands
on the race, the abilities of the two ska
tiers being considered about evenly
matched and both having many friends
who had every confidence in them AID
who backed their opinions with cash.
TRIED TO BUY THOMPSON.
Thompson stated to the News after |
the race last evening that he had been
approached by Dayey aud one OF his
hackers last Saturday and that they |
offered him S. in cash and a $110 bicycle
il he would allow Davey to win the race.
lie agreed to this and took the So and
was to get the bicycle tomorrow il he
fulfilled his part OF the agreement.
Thompson told his hacker about the
matter aud changed his mi ID about let
ting Davey win. So confident were some
OF the latter's friend. that they had
Thompson bought up that they put up
large sums just before the race last even.
