SLIGHTLY IN ERROR
70 the Editor OF the Dnllas Herald;
In your issue Of October 9th, IN an
article headed, "a break aud yet not u
break" youaroslightly in error or you
have doubtless been misinlormod by
parties wishing TO take all praise to
In, msclves, when the whole honor Of
detecting the attempt to break the Jail
belongs exclusively TO the efficient and
gentlomanly guards, Mr. Joseph Moss
and Mr.. Senrcy. So far as the sheriff
or his cohorts Of deputies and the jailor
thrown in, were not particle In our
way. and had we had thirty minutes
more time prior to the coming ON
watch Of Mr.. Joseph Moss and Mr..
Searcy, we would have made good our
escape. write this that the public
may know to whom the whole credit
Of the affair justly belongs. So far ms
covering or acting In any sneaking
disposition when we were detected, we
simply submitted and gave ii up like
men, but have no remorse or regret for
what we have done, but on the contra
~ will enact the same role again
whenever we think We can make IL u
success. Very respectfully yopr would
be freeman, W. II. MONTGOMERY.

From the Lakes to ElRrope.

The schooner Benson, which was re-
Gently loaded with grain at Toledo and
sailed for Europe by way Of the St..
Lawrence river, has arrived at Cork,
Ireland, to the qualification of the own
ers and the surprise of sailing masters.
The vessel, in order that it might pass
out to ocean, was necessarily built in
such a manner that it was deemed un-
seaworthy by underwriters, and the
owners were liable to effect an insur-
ance on either vessel or cargo. Under
the circumstances it is matter of sur.
prise that she has at length reached
Ireland in safety. The success of the
first trip, if it should pay, may tempt
owners to risk a few more; but with
the unanimous opinion Of underwriters
against the safety of the voyage in ves-
sells capable Of passing down the St.
Lawrence, it will take good many suc-
cessful trips to establish regular line
of vessels sailing direct from the lake
cities to Europe.
The Grange advance., 1874-08-05

scattered like autumn. The damage to
buildings was mostly in barns and sheds
on the outskirts of the city. and several
of the blacksmith and wagon shops on
Franklin street suffered more or
less in being unroofed and other.
wise shattered. There is quite
a contract of chimney building as we'll
as window glazing on hand. The lum-
Der yards were left in a highly mixed
up condition. The horses in Mr.. Per-
kins' livery stable became almost fran
tic with 'tskeer,'' broke their halters
and tore around considerably until the
noise on the iron roof ceased.
The hail did not touch the farms on
the bluff below, seeming to pass east
wardly. The village Of Reeds suffer-
ed about as we did here.
The damage is of course widely scat
tered, and to estimate it accurately
would be like taking a census Of the
community. 1t would no doubt amount
to thousands of dollars.

sentence for the murder of Fred Abb
leitner, of Dover, Olmsted county. -
LAST Thursday morning the stable
and granary, both one building, on the
farm of Hon. B.'F. Perry, in Kalmar,
Olmsted county, was consumed by fire.
In the building were 100 bushels Of
grain, Is tons of hay, set of harness,
a tanning mill and other farming uten-
sils. Mr.. Perry estimates his loss at
81 600, which is one-third insured in
the Farmers Mutual.
Six men employed by the Milwaukee
& St. Paul company, at La Crescent,
were arrested Thursday for breaking
into and stealing from cars. They were
particularly charged with stealing
brandy and champagne to the value Of
500. and held for trial at Hokah next
Thursday in $500 each. The company
has of late suffered frequent losses Of
freight, aud had it's detective hunting
for the thieves. He was assisted in
making the arrest by La Crosse police.
The Grange advance., 1874-08-05

the four men walked over to
the grave, where they found the
two workmen engaged in screwing on
the lid of the coffin. When it had been
completed, the curtain of the wagon
was ut once buttoned down over it.
The gravediggers remarked to the four
men that they had just buried a man
who had died Of the worst case of yellow
fever they had ever known, and they
would advise them to seek healthier
atmosphere; but as the visitors refused
to credit the story, and manifested no
alarm, the gravediggers drove off into
the city.

The Lake City Leader records tre-
mendous hail storm on that eventful
Saturday. 1t says:
The hail storm was fortunately not
widely extended. 1t came down the
lake, giving :Frontenac and Florence
riddling, butaot touching Maiden Rock.
An passing down, it damaged the crops
an several farms near the lake. Near
Central Point it took detour further
west, taking in the farms. Of Charles
Gould and Jos. Scott, alnlost making
complete wreck .of their crops. Mr..
Seett had twenty acres each Of wheat
and oats which is 4 total loss. The side
Of His house WAS moved in two inches,
chimney blown dewn and eighty lights
OF: glass broken, which will do for. one
dwelling house. His loss will exceed
$60Q.- A field of wheat of Samncl Her.
zons,near by was thoroughly thrashed.
From this point its limits did not ex-
*endsto exceed block west of the rail-
read, .onossing the lake and destroying
barns 4ad crops in Wisconsin. It sass
ed down through the city on = regular
gala trip, leaving the effect of its vista
tion on every house, in every garden
and on almost every tree and shrah.
Those whe felt its effects more or less
seriously would include the names Of
nearly every resident in tewn: The
