na A correspondent informs the
Mineral Point Tribune that on Saturday
morning, 18th inst, the people of Wing
vile and vicinity were aroused by the ar
rival of a company of two or three men
from Viroqua in quest of horse thief, who
had taken quarters quite cozily at the hotel
at that place, and not being suspicioned
had passed on withou. being noticed as to
what direction he had gone, and was hunt
ed in the direction he started fro II town,
which was the road leading to Dodgeville;
the thief had taken the Plattevlle road. A
farmer by the name of Thomas Middleton
pursued him in the direction he had seen
him pass and took him at Washburne, and
brought him back to Wingvlle and started
for Viroqua. The horse was very fine
stallion and valued at thousand dollars
A reward Of one hundred dollars was Of
fered which Mr. Middleton deserves, and
probable he is in receipt of before this
The thief had been saloon keeper Of that
place short time; had been convicted of
some crime pryor to the horse stealing and
made his escape from the window of Sec
ond story IN the, presence of forty men,
outstripped them all and was seen no
more.

Wholesale Litigation.

The people of the town of Ridgeway
were thrown into quite state of excite
ment on Monday morning last, by the ar
rival of Moses NJ Strong and R. L. Read,
of Mineral Point, with the U. S Marshal
from Milwaukee, with summons for the
appearance, on the 1st of March, of all
those persons reported to have been mem
bers of the Vigilance Committee that gave
the Roberts boys charged with the murder
of Rich'd Yapp, notice to leave. Summons
have been served on SO, including some OF
the wealthiest and most influential men in
the town of Ridgeway, requiring them to
appear before the U. S. District Court at
Milwaukee, and stand trial, brought by
Samuel and Joseph Roberts and John
Woodbridge for trespass, each laying his
damages at $4,000.
The Roberts left some nine months ago,
and it is understood they have been in the
Lake Superior Mining Region. A few
weeks ago they returned, and if they had
kept quiet, would doubtless have been
allowed to remain in the county; but if
the wound which is only partially healed,
is again opened, no one knows what the
consequences will be. Some are of the
opinion that it is move to extort money
from the farmers of Ridgeway; we would
advise them therefore to keep tight hold
of their purses, and not be frightened into
buying themselves free.

gGg- Our Avoca correspondent informs
us that the bridge across the slough on

Mr.. P. j. Reser, the builder, for the
prompt and workman like manner in
which he has filled his contract. What
we now need is bridge across the Wis

we feel the necessity of it more and more
every year, and if mistake not the de-
mand will soon be so strong that the work
will have to be undertaken.

LAMP ExPLosIoNs-How TO PREVENT
THEM-We find the following in an ex-
change, and have faith in it, so we give it
to our readers. Our ears are every day
panied by accounts of Kerosene lamps ex-
ploding and killing, or soaring for life,
men, women and children. A simple
knowledge of the inhamable nature of the
fluid would probably put stop to nearly
all the accidents. AS the oil burns down
in the lamp, highly inAamable gas gath
ers over its surface, and, as the oil de-
creases the gas increases When the oil is
nearly consumed slight jar will often in
flame the gas, and an explosion is sure to
follow, dealing death and destruction. A
bombshell is not more to be dreaded
Now, if the lamp is not allowed to burn
more than half down, such accidents are
impossible Always fill ycur lamps every
morning; then you never need fear an
explosion.

SOLDIERS BoUNTIEs. = For the pur-
pose of correcting wrong impression that
might be gathered from an article in the
Mineral Point Tribune of last week, con-
corning Gen. Cobbs bill in relation to SOL
diers' bounties, we would say, that the bill
is not for the purpose providing any adj
ditional bounty, but for the purpose of re-
moving the limits of time in which appli-
cations were required to be made to obtain
former bounties; and also, providing for
the payment of bounties to those who were
honorably discharged before the expiration
Of two years service, who have heretofore
been excluded by former bounty laws.
The bill has passed the lower House,
and if it passes the Senate will bring to
many soldier remuneration in bounty
that has heretofore been withheld from
him

we learn that on Friday evening, Jan. 10Th,
the Miner school house, being used as the

Templars, was broken open and entered
by some party who carried away all the
dodge papers, books, regalia, lamps, and
other fixtures of lodge property to the val

are authorized to state that twenty dollars
reward will be given for information that
will lead to the detection of the party or
parties who committed the theft.

DEER RAISING IN WfscoNslN.-We learn
from the La Crosse Leader that compa-
ny has beer formed in St, Croix county
for the purpose of raising deer for the
Eastern market Several hundred acres of
land in that county and Polk have been pur-
chased, and it is proposed to make parks,
in which to raise the deer. An old deer
hunter is member of the company, ard
will have charge of the business of taking
care of the deer. He gives it as his opin-
ion that deer can be raise for one dollar
year each. He has had large expert
ence in that business, and onght to know.
If he is correct in this the business Of rails
ing deer can certainly be made more prof
table. The company already have over
one hundred deer.

BEETRooT SUGAR. = The annual value of
the raw sugar from beetroot in France now
exceeds five million sterling. The total
number of beetroot sugar factories on the
Continent now amounts to more than
1900, turningsout the enormous quantity of
Gil, 900 tons of sugar per season. In the
year ending 1867 no less than $4,000 tons
of beetroot sugar were imported into the
United Kingdom or in other words we
paid continental makers 100000. for a
commodity which, it is now believed we
could just as we'll produce ourselves.
Beetroot sugar is successfully competing
with cane sugar in the London and other
English. markets; and probably a remis-
sion of the customs and excise duties would
have no other effect than to increase the
consumption of bectroot sugar, and rem
der its manufacture more profitable than
it already is.-European Mail.

sW The editor of the Mineral Point
Democrat says he is unable to discover
where the Chronicle gets the word ''res
gesta We would say for his information
that the Dord "res gesta" is a phrase, and in
law usage signifies the subject matter or
point; likewise, the ,ord {phrase) ''res an
tegre5," signifies the entire matter, and
"res denaocraticum," signifies the thing Of
the Democrat.

Valley, in that County. The circumstances
are these: Mr. Davis has been engaged in
manufacturing some kind of lamp oil,
which at the time of this accident he
was out selling and had not yet returned
home. His oldest daughter, IS years of
age, had lighted lamp and found that it
needed more oil, took off the burner, with
the wick lighted, and attempted to fill the
lamp with spoon out of brass kettle
with about two gallons Of the oil in it, by
some means the oil caught fire by the
lighted wick, and in an instant the whole
room was in blaze. Mrs. d. and her
daughter was so badly burned that little
hopes are entertained of their recovery.
The house being new and built of green
lumber, the fire was soon extinguished by
their neighbor, Jonathan Spry, who was
the first to discover the fire.
