LAST Saturday young rulfian named
Hunting Boy, went into Ell. e. Sommer's
saloon, on Commercial street, called for
beer for himself and companion, and
then fatty refused to pay for the same.
Sommers expostulated with him, when
the fellow began to use threatening Ian
guage, and when taken by the arm and
led to the door, with a request to leave,
he turned upon the proprietor, knocked
him down, and then struck him two OF
three times while in helpless condition.
He then left. Sommers had the rowdy
arrested and taken before Justice Glover,
who, after hearing the testimony, fined
him s. and costs. The young vagabond
then used abusive language in addressing
the Justice, and before he knew it his
fine had been made so and 20 days in
jail given him during which to reflect
upon the errors Of his ways-showing
that our Justices are not to be insulted
without taking redress The prisoner
was taken to Jail, where he now sits.
Shortly after his imprisonment, the cap
tain of the scow missed "a fine seven
shooter from the cabin, and suspecting the
cook, he was searched while in ia;l and
the missing weapon found upon his per-
son. He is spoken of as being desper-
ate character.

CROOKED" WHIsKY.-Last Thursday
U. S. Revenue Agent j. b. Miller, to-
gether with our.local Revenue officers,
went to the residence of Mrs. Steinwick,
widow residing in the town of M1shi-
colt, who, it was reported, had been
engaged in the manufacture of whisky
without paying Uncle Sam a tax for the
privilege. They found a diminutive dis
tillery IN full blast, captured about seven
gallons of liquor, kettle and worm,
which, together with the offender, were
brought to this city. Mrs. Steinwick
gave bonds for her appearance in Osh-
kosh on the oath (to-day.) In conse-
quence of such immense frauds having
been discovered in the larger cities of
the West recently, the affair created
quite an excitement-which appears odd,
considering the fact that our local Reve
nue. Agents have ''pulled" the same in
stitution three or four times heretofore,
for which they get no special credit.

in our agricultural districts that arc now

OF insects, especially the potato bug,
chinch bug, grasshoppers, ETC., which
present at present to the minds eye the
opinion that their depredations will,
sooner or later, become a plague unless
providential aid should come and exter-
inmate them. Mans power it appears
IS too imbecile to successfully combat
and decrease fheir ravages. Consider
ing the late spring, the crops in Maple
Grove look good The winter wheat
never appeared better at this ,8eason Of
the year than it does at present. Spring
wheat i'll places has been considerably
thinned out, or worm killed early in the
season people are afraid the grasshop-
pers will attack the spring wheat after
the hay is cut, which is very likely.

Mr.. Benecke has recently started large
cheese factory just over the county line,

sent he receives about / 700 pounds of
milk each day, but he expects to soon re-
ceivo much larger quantity. The fac
tory is under the supervision Of Mr.. A.

Mr. Gillen, mill owner in the town of
New Denmark, met with a mishap while
on his way to this village last Thursday
Something about his buggy gave way
which frightened his team, and they
started to run away. Before he could
succeed in quoting them, considerable
damage was done to the buggy, although
he escaped uninjured. ;. Last Thursday
n man by the name of John Comb, liv-
ing at Forrestville, went TO Ahnapee for
load of sand, and while there became
intoxicated. On his way home in the eve
ming, when about three miles from Aim
apee, he drove against stump, while
going rapidly down q hill, and capsized
his wagon, throwing him out and bury
ing him beneath the box of sand. The
team went home, taking with them the
wagon, minus the box, and ON their arri-
val several persons started out to look
for the unfortunate driver. They found
him dead and buried, as above described.
lie was well-to-do farmer, and leaves a
wife and six children. -. Yesterday Mr..
L. He2plemann, an old gentleman who
has lived in this village for number of
years, died very suddenly while on his
-vay home from the chair factory, where
he has been employed for some time
past, to get his dinner. He had not got
far from the factory when he began to
feel very sick and faint, and so he sat
down on the steps of Mr.. Batz's wagon
shop, declaring that he could go no fur
ther, and asked Mr.. Betz to hitch up
horse and carry him home. Mr.. Betz
started Immediately to comply with his
request, but before he could get around
to the door of the shop with his horse
and wagon, the man had died. The
cause of his death, we understand, was
heart disease. Mr.. Hempleman, was
good citizen and an obliging neighbor,
and his death will be mourned by other
persons than those connected with his
own household.

that the California Vinegar Bitters is

ATTEMPTED TRAIN WRECKING.-The
western bound train from Chicago to st.
Paul, lastnight, says Fridays Eau Claire
Free, between the hours of Il and l,
midway between Augusta and Fall Creek,
was thrown from the track by coming in
collision with some ties thai were firmly
inserted in cattle-guard. and slanting
in the direction from which the train was
coming. About twenty miles an hour
was being made at the time, and the OBJ
struction was not discovered until within
about one hundred feet. The alarm was
sounded, the brakes put on, but the dis
lance was too short, and the engine was
caughtand thrown fully twenty feetfrom
the track in one direction, and the tender
thrown on its side the other way. None
of the coaches were disturbed, further
than getting pretty good shaking, and
all the passengers and employees escaped
without injury further, perhaps, than
some slight bruises and tremendous
shock. It, too, seems almost providen-
tial that train moving with that veloc-
ity should have escaped damages so
easily, and no lives lost or fractures &C.
curing nevertheless it is true, and all
those on board have truly reason to be
thankful. that they barely escaped the
Jaws of death OF course 1T is plainly
manifest That the distractions were
placed III the way for a purpose, either
to wreak vengeance on the road for some
fancied injury, or for some other hellish
design.
