CHICAGO, May 10, 1970-The week opened
with two deadly assaults. Last Monday af-
| ternoon Charles Rieger, butcher, after
an alteration with Adam Keller, cattle
dealer, stabbed him in the left breast, from
| the effects OF which he died on Tuesday
night.
Monday evening, Patrick John DOYLE, own
| er of q pawn-shop and second d-hand store, SO
| South Wells street, shot John Schneider, a
! young man in his employ as tailor and clerk
| four times, twice in the neck once in the left
size, and once in the left leg. Doyle was Graz
! ed with liquor. Schneider was a peaceable
man, never had any quarrel with Doyle, had
him in his employ seven years, and said to
Doyle after the shooting: Before l die,
! Mr.. Doyle, want yoE to say if ever did any
wrong TO you. Hanging is too good for you.
If live"-and here his voice failed him, and
he sank back exhausted. One bail passed
through his wind-pipe, and lodged in the
back OF the neck. Ii is doubtful if he recov-
ers.

serves well OF his country. The Introduction
OF the Norway Oats, by d. w. Ramsdell, of
Vermont, has benefited the farmers not only
by giving them the best and most productive
KIND OF oats ever known. but it has stimuat-
cd them to procure better varieties of COM
mon oats for seed, and thus added greatly to
the aggregate crop. But not satisfied with past
achievements, Mr. Ramsdell is about to lay
the farmers of the country, and especially Of
the Northwest, under new obligations, by in
Producing new variety Of Wheat, to be known
as the
RAMsDELL GREEN MOUNTAIN WHEAT,
which eclipses everything heretofore produc-
ed The berry is large and handsome, ta1O
ftths Of an inch Iona, and so plump that a
bushel makes so 1bs. flour. 1t yields 90 bush
els All acre, from one bushel of seed. No one
who has seen 1t, as l have, can doubt its mar
YelOus prOductiveness.
One pint oHHy will be sent i'll a cloth pack
age, post paid, to each person sending one
dollar.
MISS PATHS CONCERTS
at Farweu Hail, this week, have been very
fully attended, and gave great satisfaction.
There have been four performances of Strad-
ella, at the Opera House, under Balatka's di-
rection.
THE WEATHER
could not well be improved, except by an oc-
casional shower. Everybody seems to be in
good humor when the skies are propitious.-
1t makes me long to get into the country
that part OF the world which God made-and
[ think I shall attempt it to morrow. B.
