WiSC0Msin7S Mineral Wealth.

From consultation at Madison on the
10th of the geological surveyors of Wis
consin, with reference to their year s
work, it appears that such progress has
been made that the survey can be finished
next year. During the past year DR..
Wight has made reconnaissance of the
head waters Of the Chippewa, Wisconsin
and Wolf, Prof. Irving has continued his
explorations in Northwestern, and Mr..
Strong in Southwestern Wisconsin, and
Prof Chamberlain has examined belt
200 miles long by Is wide, from Rock
county to the Michigan boundary of
Oconto county. The trap range of cop.
per-bcaring rock worked on Lake Supe-
rior extends to the St. Croix, and it is
probable that the Penokee iron range
also stretches parallel with it to the west
shore of Green Bay. The galena. or
lead-bearing, formation has been traced
100 miles further north than ever before,
and some valuable deposits of hydraulic
cement rock discovered.

Unsatisfactory Working Of the Sys.
tenn of Business Agencies.

The report of the executive committee
submitted to the national grange, P. of
H in session at Louisville, KY, says in
regard to the business of the different
business agencies, that some cities arc
doing very large business, sand having in
the aggregate millions Of dollars; while in
other places they are unsatisfactory, and
fall short of the benefits which ought to
be realized. The commission system of
the order is said to be false in theory, land
unjust to the members and, therefore, in
the minds Of the committee, another
method of selling is deemed necessary for
the good Of the order. Such system the
committee begs leave to submit the plans
Of at future day, and is satisfied they
will meet general approval. Efforts have
been made to bring to the minds of east
ern capitalists and manufacturers the val
liable and undeveloped riches Of the West,
and it is hoped ere long something def
mite IN that regard will be determined.
Should the report be adopted concerning
the business agencies in the different
States, the commission system will be
abolished, and one general agent to do
business fer each State be appointed and
paid salary out of the treasury of the
grange.

address to lawyers in New York. By
their advice she went to New Orleans.
Being insulted in the streets of that city
she was defended by young man who
proved to be her son, who had Just

husband arrived also. He had become a
wealthy man, and thought his family
lost.

Pistol Practice BY Colored Preachers.
At Mount Olive school house, Warrens
burg, Mo-, occurred remarkable tragedy
few days ago. Jerry Foster, colored
Methodist preacher, became jealous OF
Peter Hawkins, another colored preacher,
on the latter accepting an invitation to
feed the Mount Olive lambs. Foster went
to the window of the house and seeing
the brethren listening enraptured At Pc
ter's words of wisdom, drew a revolver
and fired. The bullet missed the mark
but fatally wounded another man. A
second ball had the same result, and the
congregation hurriedly dispersed, while
Foster escaped in the darkness.

The Horrors OF the Bender Gang Re.
ViVed,

kansas City Telegram Chicago Times.)
Three.persons mysteriously disappeared
lately in Kansas within a short time,
which revives recollections of the Bender
gang, and, strange to say, the crimes and
disappearance are now traced to the
bloody ground Of Cherry Vale. The body
lately found in the Verdigris river, at In.
dependence, Kansas, is now identified as
the body Of a German named Hayward,
who was on his way to the fatherland. He
was known to have considerable amount
of money, and he was last seen alive at
the house Of farmer, short distance
from independence. His body was found
in the Verdigris, horribly mutila:ed and
tied in bag.
The next mystery is Mr.. Grey. who
left his brother.ln'law's house at Usage,
No., on Friday morning, Sept. "a, to
visit brother at Sedan, Chatauqua coun-
ty. On his return to Denison, he took a
mixed train at Emporia at about 5
o'clock. There he was to take a train
for New Chicago, and thence go to indie.
pendence. From there he would be
under the necessity of travelling by pri-
vate conveyance distance Of IS miles to
reach Sedan, where his brother resides
On his arrival at Emporia he had to await
another train, and here wrote back to his
brother-in-law, Charles S. Marten. In
the letter he expressed anxiety to be on
the road, as his business required him in
Denison. This is the last information re.
ceivcd of him. He never reached his
brothers and no trace has been found Of
him after leaving Emporia.
The last singular and altogether unac-
countable disappearance is that of Rose
Sydel, Of Cedar Vale, Kansas. The lady
referred to came to this country from
England with her husband, Mr.. Frank
Sydel, o few years since, whom she mar
ried in London about seven years ago.
She was about Is years of age when she
took upon herself the RESPONSE bilities OF
married life, and at that time she was
considered extremely beautiful, after the
type of English beauty. Some days ago
she left home to visit in this city, having
notified her friends that she would be
here at certain time. Those expecting
her were prompt in making preparations
to receive her, and were disappointed
when she failed to arrive, yet supposed,
naturally, that she had been detained
perhaps by sickness. Nothing has been
heard Of this lady up to the present time.
Thus attention was again directed to the
horrid Bender locality.

Lost and Found,

A New York correspondent gives the
following interesting incident in real life:
AS was passing through Canada few
days ago en-: route t. this city, 4 meteNew
York papers and in them noticed the de-,
scrlptlon Of missing man, coupled with
ststemen thattazreward 81 5000 would be
paid tor any informa ton concerning him
sent to acertain3 room at the Hoffman
House. The announcement was Specu.
liar, in that whilesit stated that the miss
ing man was a we'll known citizen, no
mention was made of his name, This an.
nouncement was continued several days
but brought no tidings. Day after day
rolled on and his friends gave up all hope
of finding him alive. Yesterday morning
the Sun came out with the full story.
His name was George Griswold, a we'll
known and wealthy merchant. He was
to sail for Europe, the day after his dis
appearance, to join his wife, and on his
w,fe's account his disappearance had been
advertised without any name. In honor
of his trip he had INDUCED in wine sup
per with some friends at down town res
taurant. The supper terminated about
midnight, and the friends entered a car :
riage to be driven home. When within a
block or two Of MIR. Griswold S residence,
which is in a fashionable and aristocratic
quarter up town, MIR. Griswold ahghted
and babe his friends good night. He had
on his person 500 in g money, u, $500
watch and $4,000 diamond pin. The
theory, which had almost ripened into a
certainty, was that he haI been murder
cd for his money and valuables and
his body thrown into the river. But the
power Of the newspaper to bring the dead
to life was soon made apparent. The
publication was made Saturday morning,
and before noon of the same day Mr..
Griswold appeared in person at the room
Of his son at the Hoffman House. The
story he told was that after leaving his
friends he fell and cut his head badly on
the curb stone. He then wandered about
in sort of dazed condition until a
friend met him and took him to his (the
friend house, where he had remained
recuperating ever since. The nameless
advertisement had net attracted the at
tention of the friend, and the first he
knew of the alarm in the matter was the
San account. The moral of this is
avoid wine suppers the evening before
you are to leave for Europe, or if you in
du.ge in them, let the driver Of the car
riagc take you home and see you inside
of your front door. Vulgarly speaking,
Mr.. Griswold got drunk.

large quantities ofthat wheat have been
