At Davenport, Iowa, on the 1lth OF
May, a grand Billiard tournament, for
the cham pionship of the State, Is to
commence The lucky winner is to
hold seat as Iowa's representative i'm
the American Congress-. The tourna-
ment will continue several days, and
will take place under the supcrintend-
ence of ID. T.. Gavit, Secretary of the
American Billiard Congress, either at
the German Theatre or at Metropolitan
Hall. The Missouri State tournament
begins at st. Louis on the first of May
When that is concluded, Michael Phe-
Ian, and four more of the best players in
America, will visit Davenport. No less
than six contestants will enter for the
championship Of Iowa. Each contest
ant must be resident of the State. TO
the best player will be awarded a gold
mounted cue, valued Mt 500, which has
already been ordered, and the champi-
onship of the State. To the next best
player will be awarded silver hunters

mounted cue, the champion will be
obliged to hold it against all contestants
for two years, not being subject to u
challenge more often than once i'm every
four months. If he succeeds i'm holding
it that length of time, it will become
his property. No one will have the
privilege of challenging him, except

held in many States, and hundreds of
people will be gathered from every part
of Iowa to participate in the excitement
of the occasion.

hung on March LIST. Accordingly on
Thursday there was upwards Of 5000
persons about the gallows, just below
town, to witness his execution. At II
O'clock the wagon containing the pris-
oner, seated on his coffin and surround
ed by strong police force, rolled up to
the place of execution. The darkey
looked about very unconcernedly and
payed more attention to the crowd than
to his spiritual advisers-two colored
ministers. He walked up the stairs
without help, looked over the assembled
multitude, examined the trap door and
rope, and while the preachers were
praying with him he kept twirling his
cap on his finger or pulling at his stock
ing. Just before they pulled the cap
over his eyes he asked the hangman if
he was "sure that coffin was long
enough" Nearly every one who saw
him hung considers that he only out
witted the brute in the use of language.
The first boat for ST. Louis left last

1t is nearly an every day occurrence
for somebody's wife to 'strike out"
with some other body, and SO Mr..
Stempp lost his wife, child and $1,000,
few days ago. Stempp felt bad about
the woman, worse about the child and
the horrors seized him when he realized
that the pennies had slipped through
his fingers. He offers reward of $3.50
for the recovery of the money and soon
after finds his spouse" OH Nodaway
Island. She refunds $3.50 and declares
that's all that's left.' He raves and
demands his child. She informs him
that it's not his child at all, so he con-
tents himself by telling her to "go to
the devil and be damned"
Weather is fine and the roads will
soon be good. -..........

Tom Blake.

When summer clouds sail DER the prairie,
Like shadows that dance In their wake,
Though try to be wise and be wary,
My thoughts are pursuing Tom Blake.
They toll me "hes not worth penny"
That "to love him IL quite mistaken"
know as to wealth, iff'd any, / T E -
I'd freely divide with Tom Blake.
But wealth can be gathered forever,
1t lies on the land and the lake;
But, II they compel us to sever, r... .-
There's never another Tom Blake.
I care not though others may scorn him,
I'd frown on them all for his sake,
For the Graces combine to adorn him
