The Ypsilanti Commercial chronicles a swindle upon one of our respected business men: "Our friend Qibson. the genial and popular Aun Arbor photographer, was swindled out of $345 by a ftllow named Shannan, this week. He lntrusted Shaunan witli mouldings of that value, to sell on commisslon at Port Hurón, but Mr. S., after disposing of them, promptly pocketed the proceeds, and ¦ktpped." This fellow bas probably gone to fiud McQarigle, the Chicago boodier, and when he returns witli liim, theboodle and the reward, all will be explaincd and settled. Kight in the face of one of its great dailies the school board of Detroit has appointed a university graduate as principal of the Detroit high school vice L. C. Hul), another university graduate, resigneil to take a $4,000 professorship in theLawrenceville Acadcmy in New Jersey. Prof. Fred. L. Bliss graduated with the class of '77, and while in college was a live student and made many friends. He was managing editor of tlie Chronlcle one semester, and iu that capacity displayed inuen push and energy. His home is at Jackson, where he has held a position in tlie public schools for somo time. II: was also superintendent of schools at La Porte, Ind., for a time. Dr. J. O. Wood, of the Homeopathie department, while passing through Howell Monday, on tlie train, was surprised to have a summons served upon hlm at the instance of one Mrs. Josepli Lameraux, of Cohoctah, iu that county, who came here last winter and had a very delicate surgical operation successfully performed. After going to the hospital it seems that one of the bottles of hot water - usually placed around patients to revive them after an exhausting operation - in some marnier came in too close contact witli the litnbs of the patiënt and burned her somewhat. Just liow that was done does not appear, but it was certainly nothing that Dr. Wood is respoiiaible for. The lady was very grateful when see left here, but some way seems to have changed her mimi, and bas now sued the Doctor for $10,000 damages. When it is known that the operation certuinly saveil her lift', that it was one that has been seldoni performed; that the Doctor expended much valuable time upon her case in order that it miglit be successful, the sult for damages appeari to say the least, to be surprising and singular.
