Far 7rade.-The amount of business done
here in buying and selling furs is probably
greater than most people suppose There
are now in the store of L. ELLERMAN 5000
rat; 400 beaver; $50 fox: 80 wolf; 60
wild -cat; 375 coon; 1875 otter; 1,lsO mink !;
1877 badger; house. cat and three skunk
skins and the lot is worth somewhere between
$4,000 and $4,000 They are the proper
tyofA. SIMMER & Co., who bought them
within the last six weeks, through the coun-
try northwest of here, and we are told that
they comprise small portion of what is still
left in that section. Since writing the above
we learn thatithe above lot has been sold to
Milwaukee man for $11 900.
Wilbur r SchsncE.-In its proper place
may be found the obituary notice Of our
former townsman, WnBUE F. ScHENcK, of
Co. X. Sd Iowa Infantry In his 1ecease we
are reminded Of that oft repeated line,
'.Dsath loves shining mark"
for he was asyoung man Of education and
intelligence, incorruptible in his morals, un-
improbable in his integrity, and beloved by
all who hadsihc pleasure Of his acquaintance.
Thus has another brave, patriotic heart fallen
victim to the demon of rebellion; another
precious sacrifice been offered upon the altar
of freedom !; another household circle rob,
bed Of its dearest treasure, It's most precious
earthly idol. The funeral sermon will be
preached next Sabbath morning, in Coagre
gational Hall, by Rev. H. d. F,slELn.
