bed at his residence, Franklin avenue, near Madi-
son street, on Monday last, was concluded yester-
day before Coroner Jones. 1t was shown cX-
animation that the deceased, who was passenger
on Flushing avenue car No. PSI on Sunday evening
last, was acting in most disorderly manner, and
the conductor, william Buckleman, demonstrated
with him. Alter quarrelling for some time the man
struck the conductor, and the latter retaated, hit

bathod his lace, which was bleeding, and he soon

National Engineers Association.

We call the attention of our readers to the
advertisement of the National Engineers
Association of Milwaukee, believing it to be
an institution worthy in every respect of
public patronage. The managers we believe
to be honest, reliable and trustworthy.
Their books being open to the inspection
of ticket holders, or any parties desiring in
formation of sthe institution, stamps it at
once above suspicion. No more worthy
object exists than the education and eleva-
ton of man, and especially should this par
tcular class Of men have every advantage
placed at their disposal, from the fact that
not only are our commercial interests greatly
entrusted to their skill and ability, but the
lives of human beings are entirely entrusted
to them while journeying on the main thor
oughfares of our country.
Their drawing, was to have taken place on
the 18th inst, but owing to their loss in the
disastrous confagration at Chicago, and the
consequent delay, they are compelled to
postpone until Thursday, February 22d,
1872. Their office. is situated on Spring
street, Nos. 116 and 1lS, Milwaukee, Wis.

The Weekly sun Doubled In Size Without
Increase in Price.
With the beginning Of the year 1872
The WEEKLY Sun will be double its
pIesent size, and will contain eight
pages instead of four, making it equal
in dimensions to any other weekly SCI ular
journal published in this country. At
the same time its price will not be in
creased. 1t will be furnished to sub
'scribers at the uniform rate of one dol
lar year for each copy. To this rate
no exception will be made and no re-
duction will be possible, either to clubs
or agents. Every subscriber who sends
dollar will receive a copy for year.
While THE WEEKLY Sun will thus fur
nish as much reading matter as other
papers published at double or treble the
price, it will contain new features which
will add greatly to its interest and value
as family newspaper. Its indepen-
dence of opinion and its unqualified
hostility to Tweedism and Grantism,
and every form of public robbery,
bribery, and corruption will be main
tanned, while in point oil political news
readers may rely upon always receiving
the most accurate as well as the freshest
intelligence that can possibly be OBJ
tanned. The enlargement will also enable
us to devote additional space to valuable

and humorous aspects of life, and for
useful information respecting not only
what takes place in this metropolis and
this country. but in all other parts of
the world, we shall now have ample
room.
In its new form The WEEKLY Sun will
be the cheapest paper of its class in the
United States; and we appeal to such
of our readers as approve its ideas and
objects, and find it interesting and valu-
able. not only to renew their own sub
scriptions, but to recommend the paper
to their friends and neighbors.
The coming year is destined to be a
memorable one in the history of the
country. We are on the eve of most
significant Presidential election, and
political movements will for many
months be watched with unusual inter
est. AS a journal free from the trammels
of party, The WEEKLY Sun will continue
to uphold the principle of true repub-
lican government. Its readers are in
vited to sustain it in this work. The
truth, irrespective of party prejudice or
official influence, will always be told in
its columns.

Poisoned to Death.

A healthy liver secretes each day
about two and half pounds of bile,
which contain S a great amount of waste
material taken from the blood. When
the liver becomes torpid or congested,
it fails to eliminate this vast amount of
noxious substance, which, therefore, re-
mains to poison the blood and be con
veyed to every part of the system.
What must be the condition of the
blood when it isreceiving and retaining
each day two and a half pounds of
poison? Nature tries to work off this
poison through other channels and or
gans+-the kidneys, lungs, skin, etc. :;
performing this labor, in addition to
their natural functions, and cannot long
Withstand the pressure, but become va
riously diseased.
The brain, which is the great electrical
centre of all vitality, is unduly stimu
lated by the unhealthy blood which
passes to it from the heart, and it fails
to perform its office BEAUTIFULLY. Hence
the symptoms of bile poisoning, which
are dizziness, headache, incapacity to
keep the mind on any subject, impair
ment of memory, dizzy, sleepy OF nerv-
Gus feelings, gloomy forebodings and ir-
ritability Of temper. The blood itself be-
ing diseased, as it forms the sweat upon
the surface of the skin, it is SO irritatin g
and poisonous that it produces discol-
ored brown spots, pimples, blotches,
and other eruptions, sores, boils, car
buncles, and scrofulous tumors. The
stomach, bowels, and other organs
spoken of, cannot escape becoming af-
fected, sooner Or later, and costiveness,
piles, dropsy, dyspepsia, diarrhoa, te-
male weakness, and many other forms
of chronic disease, are among the neces-
sary. results. AS a remedy for all these
various manifestations of disease, Dir.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
positively unequaled. By it the liver
and stomach are changed to an active,
healthy state, the appetite regulated
and restored, the blood and .secretions
thoroughly purified and enriched. and
the whole system renovated and built
up anew. Sold by all first class drug

The Latest News from Silver Island.
From the Duluth tMinn y Tribuns

Mr.. William Bruff, of London, Eng
land, is in the city, on his return from
Silver Island, whittier he went with our
| fellow townsman, DR.. Walbank, and
Mr.. Isaac L. Moore, of Superior. We
are informed that, on behalf of num-
Der of English capitalists, whom he re-
presents, he will, if he finds the titles
perfect, invest about 5000, 900 in mineral
lands in the vicinity of Silver Island,
and that DR.. Walbank, on account of
his practical knowledge of mining and
minerals, is to be given chance with
them. cF ...fn
Mr.. Bruff and Mr.. Walbank confirm
all that has been said by others as to
the wonderful richness of the mines OF
that region. At the Silver Island mine
the quantity of the precious metal
which is daily dug out is limited only
by the force that they are enabled to
employ. The quantity of silver seems
inexhaustible, and there is every reason
to believe that during the coming win
ter the ore which they will get out will
be worth several millions of dollars.
The Shuniaw and Beck mines are also
looking splendidly. The number of
miners and laborers employed in and
about the various mines is about $50.
Gold bearing quartz has been found in
the vicinity that is worth the enormous,
sum of $4,000 per ton. AS the conf
dence in the richness of the mines in
creases the excitement increases. One
man is having 10000 acres surveyed,
which he has purchased from the Cana
dian Government at 81 per acre. A
great deal of this land lies back from
the lake from fifty to one hundred
miles.
The total population in the vicinity
of the mines is about 900; but Captain
Frue, the Superintendent of the Silver
Island mine, who has always been re-
garded as exceedingly careful about al
lowing exaggerated reports or ideas to
go out respecting the mines, is reported
to have said that he confidently expects
that in one year from this time that
region will have population of not less
than 100000! Whether his "great ex-
haps somewhat predetermined but that
there will be an immense rush to that
section of country in the spring, does
not admit of doubt for certain it is
that the silver mines near Thunder Bay
equal, if not surpass, in richness any
other mines heretofore discovered on
the American continent-those of
Mexico. even, not excepted. Exactly
what the gold mines in that vicinity
will amount to is, as yet, uncertain but
as to the immense quantities of silver
there, no doubt whatever can be en-
tertained, and that, of itself, will be
| sufficient to cause fortune-hunters
next year to flock thither by the thou
sand. b. .. +.. -!
