A Peculiar Prcdicnrr.ont.
Thoy tell a good story on a popular
groecrman of this city whose name wo
would not mention i'or tho world. Tho
gentleman has for along timo been suffering from a growth of callous upon ono
of his feet, and for several weeks has been
treating the same with a view to removing tbo incumbrance, Ono pprti n of
tho treatment consisted of soaking  tho
Mir.rt-.jtru iv/uu uhuu _i-£_ri!' JO lluv travel., aim
one evening lust week he repaired to his
domiciiu at an early hour .and immersed
his feet in. hot water, The application
was so soothing that ho fell asleep and
nothing was known of his condition Tin-
til about four o'clock tha next morning,
when his better half awoke and upon
making the rotmds of tho house found
her saousa deep in the arms.pf morphetia
with his foot frozen fast in the pail of
water. The assistance of neighbors was
required to free the unfortunate man
from thjj congealed aqua, axes being used
n the operation.

and
Th"? Railroad Won.
Monroe, "Mich., November 12.--The
suit for damages of Jjimes Anthony, of
Glare, {-gainst tho Mint & Pere Mar-
quo tto railroad company, was dedd- d in
favor of the defendant. Tho ease was a
peculiar ono nnd grew out of injuries
which Mr. Aiithony sustained as a result
of a car being shot across tho street as
Mr. Anthony was passing and striking
him, caneing Blight injuries. The case
has occupied the court for tho past two
days. This evening the judge took the
case from the j ry and decided in favor
ef tho dofendent, basing his decision on
the ground that tho action of tho plaintiff, having accepted cercaii. considerations, such as the payment of doctor bills
and care while injured, was equivalent to
a settlement. *
A Competitor.
The Missaukoo Plain Dealer, says that
work on tho Manistee and Luther railroad has been commenced and will be
continued through. Missaukee county,
the terminus being Moorcstown.
This place, it is claimed, is ono nf the
objective points of tho Muskegon river
extension ot the P. £1*. M..-B li.' Tho
primary reason for building tho M, & L.
is to remove the canfield pine to Manistee for manufacture. Fearing th t the
reader might doubt our undying loyalty
to tho city of our adoption, in thus railroading our pine to an unimportant
shore town, we hasten to announce that
this pme isn't ours. It's another fellow
by the same name, that's a pine baron.
We're "barren" of even stove wood just
at present.

The Shermiu correspondent to tho Ml.
Pleasant Tribune, writes thus of tho
lecturer, J. ■ M. Colo: "Prof, (?) J. M.
Oolo who spoke at Woodeii's mill and «-t
the school'house in district No. 2, and
claimed to be an ex-member of the lessio
James band of outlaws, jumped his board
bill at Kobt. Myers, in Bloomfield. Mr.
Myers followed him as far as Brinton
but he had loft for Claro to imposo iipon
tho peoplo of that vicinity. It would
seem that Mr. Cole had not thoroughly
reformed and should bo taken back to
states prison, where ho claim he has
served time." Here, Horo! This is the
man that lootured at the Wilson and
Knssell school houses iu West Vornon
last week. At tho former place ho insulted and abused tho peoplo in fche most
iittpudeut'inanner (ho being filled with
whisky) and if he had received hia just
dues ho would have boen put bebi_id the
bars. At the latter place ho ran against-
a snag, tbat is, one who would not take
his abuse, and that Was Wm. Leak who
mado Mr. Colo take a back seat and tho
lecture was declared off. Ho repeated
his Bloomfield ractot and failed to pay
his board bill at H. Oimmoror's and Jns.
Robinson's. All flammed up ho is an all
around dead beat and a dirty rascal in
general, scouring the country under tho
guise of ti christian.   Jieware of him.
