Bert Johnston, an employee of
Nester's mill, met with very
painful accident Wednesday morn
ing. While hitching team of
horses to wagon large snap in
some way caught the third finger
of his right hand. The horses
suddenly backed up, and the point
of the snap became imbedded in the
finger at the base, tearing its way
the entire length of the finger down
to the bone. The finger was pulled
apart at the first joint, making am
putation necessary.
The following is from the Ontona-
gon Herald of last Saturday:
Thursday morning Nester's tug
Cotton left the Fire Steel river with
a raft of hemlock logs, consisting of
400, 900 feet, the property of Francis
Bros, of this place, who were to de-
liver them to Porter Bros, at the
Portage Lake canal. Al. Savage, of
Ontonagon, went with the raft for
Francis Bros, and says everything
was going along smoothly until the
tug got as far as Salmon Trout
river when severe storm from the
northwest came up and the tug was
forced to let go of the raft, which
was going to pieces. Capt.
Bourrassa, seeing that it was inn
possible to get into the canal, turned
his tug about and ran for this har-
Dor, which he reached at midnight.
He calls it one of the worst storms
he was ever out in, and at one time
was afraid that all would be lost.
Francis Bros. are in hopes that they
may be able to recover a large part
of the raft. +"

An Old Voting Card.

Most people know what part "ostra-
cism" played in the policy of ancient
Athens. When a citizen was Judged
to have become dangerous to the state
because of his eminence. influence or
wealth the people claimed the right of
banishing him for time. On stated
annual day each citizen wrote on q
small earthen tablet, commonly piece
of broken pottery, the name of the man
whose Punishment he demanded, and
dropped it into the ballot-urn. II 5000
of these "potsherds" bore the same
name sentence of Punishment for ten
or five years was pronounced against
it's owner. A few Of these "ostraka,"
as they were called, have been found
and preserved, and recently another
very interesting one was unearthed
near Arcopagus at Athens. It is a bit
of the rim of what had been large
terra-cotta vessel, and has scratched
distinctly on it the name of "Themis-
tocles." Now, this, the greatest Athen-
ian of his time, did suffer ostracism in
the year 470 B. c., and there can be
little doubt that this is one of the o.
traka used on that occasion.

A Victim of Curiosity.

A man to whom was given the name
of George Brown was committed to the
insane asylum by County Judge
Northup Of Portland recently. The
case is one of the most peculiar that
has come under the attention of the
authorities for long time. Jailer
Resing found the man sitting on the
curb at Sd and Stark streets, and,
upon addressing him with a query as
to his name and business, received in
reply torrent of abuse and profanity,
Presuming the man was under the in
fuence of liquor, the officer placed him
under arrest on a charge of drunken
ness. When taken to the station the
captain, as is usual, asked the prison.
er his name. The question again
loosened the flood-gates of a marvel
GUS stream of profanity; which could
only be suppressed by placing the
pr1sorel in dark cell. When he had
become quiet he was transferred to the
big cell with the other prisoners and
one of the latter asked his name. The
calm countenance Immediately chang
ed again and the usual bitter impreca-
tons of the man were repeated. Each
effort of the officers to learn his name
always resulted in the same outburst.
He finally consented to talk, and told
the officers peculiar story. He said
ne was tormented by people asking
him his name. In Brooklyn, where he
formerly resided, he would OCCASION
ally come in contact with a man who
would ask him his name, and to avoid
these he went west. The first man on
the car to speak to him was the con-
ductor, who asked him his name. On
the road it was the same, no matter
where he fed, and to crown his tor
ment with the greatest wrong he was
confined in Jail to hear the question re-
peated. At the county Jail he tore his
garments into shreds one night

Those Commissioners.

Bigelow Signal, April 2, 1897:
The Signal two weeks ago was the
first paper in the county to sound a
note of warning regarding an extrav-
agant county board. Commenting
upon this matter the Adrian Guard
ian says:
'There is no question that the
greatest abuse is what the Signal
terms the 'willful liberality' of those
who have the matter in hand, aid be.
ing freely extended to all who ask,
and the county charges being accord
ed the best of every thing to be. had,
literally living on the fat of the land,
There is little economy or reason in
paying $3.50 for mattress for coun-
ty charges, when many of the people
who are compelled to pay their share
of it, sleep on Csc straw tick, and
this item has it's hundreds of dupli-
Gates. Perhaps it is true that the on
ly remedy to be found is in the pur-
chase of poor farm, but it is posi-
bic that if the next grand jury would
get after the slack business methods
employed in the care of the poor, with
a pointed stick, some good might re-
suit therefrom. Mobiles county needs
reform in this matter about 40 badly
as it is needed anywhere on earth,
and the people should unite in
demanding it without delay"
