CRAZY WANpERER.-This morning
the men at the slaughter house abouta
mile north of Virginia sent in word to
Chief Downey that they had a Mexican
woman in their keeping who had been
wandering about there all night, ap-
parently insane. Downey went out
with a buggy and brought her to the
station house, from whence she was
subsequently, removed to where she
will be properly cared for. Her name
is Benedita, and she was stopping at
the brick house at the corner Of ID
street and Sutton avenue. She had
been sick and somewhat deranged for
q few days, and took occasion to leave
the house unobservsd last evening.
DIR. Green says that with proper care
she will be all right again in n few
days.
CANcELING THE PoLIcIEs.-For rea-
sons best known to themselves, the in
surance agents at Virginia, since the
recent big fire, have cancelled all or
most Of the policies on wooden build
ings in the Immediate vicinity Of the
burnt district. We are informed that
the house known as mo. smear the
corner of f and Union streets, Vir-
ginia, is insured for $4,000 in the
London, Livsrpoolan and Globe Insurance
The building may be worth
one-thlrd Of that amount, or may be
not, but that Is nom Of u business.
Those most interested in that neigh
borhood seem to think that If canceling
policies Is the order Of the day, that
one should be cancelled also, thus CIV
ing all hands an equal show, with no
Partially.
LEG BRoKEN.-Saturday afternoon,
about five o'clock, Hugh Sheridan was
riding past the Crown Point works,
when his horse fell with him and he
was thrown violently to the ground.
DR.. Hall, who attended him, found the
fibula, or small BONE Of the left leg,
broken between the knee and ankle,
and he was. otherwise more or less
bruised.
The W1SNER.-That rich lace shawl
of Rosoner's, valued at $500, ratified
of at DAILY & Goodman's saloon, Vir-
ginia, Saturday evening, was won bya
ticket standing in the name OF Mrs.
Abe Edgerton. This and Mrs. Hung
erford's chance tied, each throwing 43.
In deciding the tie, Que threw IS and
the other 81. Pretty close throwing,
that,
Coop BENEFrr:-Miss Sue Robin
sons benefit at the Opera House Satur-
day evening was a very gratifying sue
cess, the house being crowded through
out, and the entertainment given q
most pleasing one.
Being REMovEp.-The old Potosi
hosting works are being torn down
and removed. The site Of the works
will be used as a dump for waste rock.
THREArES1Sa.-The fine weather Of
the last few days seems about to
change, judging from the threatening
clouds and chilly atmosphere Of to-day.
