MYSTERIOUS DISAPPEARANCE

A young man named Gubert Patterson,
about twenty years Of age, has been missing
since yesterday from his residence corner Of
Jeanne and Chartres. His family are much
concerned as to his whereabouts, as hereto
fore he has never shown any signs Of insanity.
Al the time OF his disappearance he was
dressed in black coat and hat, and gray
pan.a!oons. There may be foul play some
where, as it is rather strange that young man
Of his habits should SO mysteriously leave his
home without Informing some Of his family
or friends We hope the police will endeavor
their utmost to ascertain what has become Of
him and relieve the anxiety of his bereaved
family.

MIR. Cole, proprie nt lhy New
York and New Orleans circus, lately
conceived a very rrlli.n idea. 1t
was TO take advantage of the no.
torlety of the four characters of the
scandal-Mr. and Mrs. Beecher, Mr..
and Mrs. Tilton. SO he had wax
hgures made of them, probably as
effective as usual in the matter of
likeness. But that wasn't the point.
MIR. Beecher didn't prop ,~r to be
made a wax Fl gure of without a
struggle. He accordingly hired an
attorney, who went to Burlington,
Iowa, and just as the circus was
about to disclose its treasures, an
| nluuctlon WAS served upon the en-
erp'islng proprietor, forbidding the
| exhibition of the Rev Henry Ward
Beecher and wife. The case is now
In court.

"D 1t, sd, The Tribune, "with
regard % the ocean the improve
ment In S'ttty hes scarcely kept
pace with the increase Of travel.
L actua, number Of shipwrecks
are still great. The loss of ME in
the event of shipwreck still bears a
large proportion to the number of
passengers. There is this note
worthy Il ference between railway
and steamship accidents; in the form
er, the employees of the road, in pro-
portion to their numbers, far more
frequently lose their lives than the
passengers, while precisely the re-
verse is true of steamship wrecks.
In an essay presented by Prot. VIM.
A. Rogers, at the Portland meeting
Of the American Association, it was
distinctly shown by comparison
OF statistics, that there had been for
many years continual and very
large incraese in the proportion oi
shipwrecks among British vesse is.
He concluded that this unquestion-
able increase of danger and accident
was due to the confidence of cap
tains in reckoning bv instruments,
and depending too much upon their
chronometers The ratio of errors
In chronometers was shown to be
such that a navigator should ex-
pect from this source an error OF
more than 3 miles, must be on the
lookout Tor one If III miles, and
need not be surprised at one of 81
miles. This is supposing he trusts
TO an average chronOmeter. A
good navigator told Prot. Benjamin
Perice during a voyage, that he did
not trust his position into 60 miles.
The Professor himself, while Su-
perentendent Of the Cast Survey.
declared az his own conviction, that
a captain who neglected to take
soundings when W thin 80 miles OF
coast, 'if he had any PASSENGERS on
his vessel, ought to be hung"

The NJ pody-Sankey reviv,

The NJ ,ody-Sankey revival
meetings seem to be increasing in
intensity; so much so that while
Moody has almost effected a revo-
luton IN religion, Sankey is said by
some of the London papers to have
done the same thing In singing.
England, which is thoroughly per
meated with the influence of he
staid church of England, is not used
TO the enthusiasm which is so com
mon an element in American relig-
ion. The meetings are attended by
Gladstone, and the nobility; and
they are earnestly supported by
such powers as the Revs. Newman,
Hall and Spurgeon. A temporary
structure is soon to be erected for
them having q seating capacity OF
$500.

THE HOPPER GRASS.
He Cometh, From Whence and How?-
A Rocky Mountain Pastoral Epic.

From The Denver News.
The grasshopper;
He cometh;
He cometh numerously;
He bringeth his family;
Also his relatives;
And his friends.
Likewise his mother-in-law,
And her friends;
AS well as all that hate her.
And they are legions;
The wisdom OF man computeth
them not;
They spread over the land,
Aud there Is no place where they
are not.
They nip the springing grass;
They devom the fragrant onion
sprout;
And the savory celery.
The wheat field is left desolate,
Aud no green thing remaineth
where the hopper hath been.
His pathway is the abomination
of desolation.
The ranchman mournelh for his
green fields that were, bat are not.
Mayhap he sweareth;
Possibly he saith audibly, and
crieth aioud-damneth.
What careth the hopper-grass
1t troubleth him not
Ask the prophets of Kansas;
And the wise men OF Nebraska; :;
And they will answer likewise;
But the relief committee agent
litteth up his voice and caileth the
hopper Blessed.
The patriotic grasshopper com
eth from the mythical western land
where the glorious orb OF day SINKS
in roseate splendor to his evening
conch;
The realm of Brigham;
The land of Mormons:
Whence coneth many bad things
aud some that are good.
The hopper is one of them;

A Tribute to Breckin ridge.
From The Pioneer-Press:

L rom he flOncef-IfoSS
The death of John G.. Brecken-
ridge casts sadness over the hearts
of many residents of st. Paul. AS
early as 1857 he came to the ''head
of navigation" and wisely bought
land around our young city, and
thus he became identified with US
and had here many friends and ad
mirers.
He was great man! Not dis.
tinguished in one thing, but great
in combination. In him were com.
bined all the attributes and virtues
that make men great Those who
knew him well, could not fad any
thing wanting, either In his mora
life or his mental character. He
was a manly man, Of royal berth,
yet democratic American, unos.
tentatious, genial and attentive
alike to all his fellow men. Is he
dead? What does death mean
Can we who knew him so well be
lieve that that model form is cold
and without the life that made the
person so attractive
He was one of the finest speci
mems of the human race that God
ever gave to earth. Magnanimous
and great, yet he was lovable. His
presence could be .teH-there was
mesmerism in the man. No one OF
culture and taste ever saw him
without admiring his talents and
his person. With commanding and
superior appearance and majestic
mien he wonld be singled and
marked wherever he might go. We
had hoped to see him at St. Paul
once more, as his intention was to
come here this season for the bene
fit of his health.
In our civil war Breckinridge
went with his people of the south.
Vice President Wilson had Just
visited the bedside of his old friend
a fortnight before his death. There
is now no north and DO south.
Union soldiers and the orators

MITCHELL VS.. SAGE E-The trans
fer books of the Milwaukee & St.
Paul Railroad closed last Monday,
and we are reliably informed that
there is no doubt that Mr.. Mitchell
has secured most of the stock
against Russell Sage. Il is our
opinion that the breach between
Mitchell and Sage has been the
growth of years. Their relations
have never been those Of twin
brothers, nor their opinions upon
matters of management unit. II
Mr.. Mitchell succeeds in Shapino

be of great advantage to the stock-
holders, and at the same time a
source of satisfaction aud conf
dence to the people If Wisconsin.

pie who furnish the revenues of the

THE BEssEMER STEAMER.-Twc

recent experiments have been made
in England in building ships that

of the waves. The CaStalia, which
was simply the Polynesian double

proved a failure. The two twin
bulls, with their connecting deck,
undoubtedly rolled less than an or
dnary steamer does, but they rolled
and pitched quite enough to pro-

BARRON COUNTY TAX TROUBLES.
Several of the heavy nonresident
land owners of Barron county are
taking legal steps to resist the col
lection of the taxes levied against
their lands for the year 1874. These
parties are S. A. Jewet' & Co., of
Cedar Falls; Cornell University, OF
Ithaca, n Y; H-rsey, Staples &
Co, Schulrnberg & Co, and A.
Soule, of Saltwater, Minnesota; Hol.
man e Co., and Peter Truax. OF
Eau Claire, and Knapp, Stout &
Co., of Menomnnie. An attempt
will be made to enjoin the sale OF
the land by the county 'reasurers
next Tuesday, and as a step in that
direction, an order was issued last
Saturday by Judge Humphrey, re
,quiring the defendant TO show
cause why an injunction should not
be granted. This order was made
returnable yesterday at Hudson,
and was argued by the counsel, but
with what result we are not informed
In several Of the above cases two
tits have been brought, owing to
The fact that Barron county has two
treasurers-One at Barron and an.
other at Rice Lake.
The treasurers of three towns
made returns TO John Quaderer, al
Barron, while returns of four towns
were made to +. G. Boleman, dep
uty OF county treasurer Sawyer
consequently a portion of the land,
are advertised to be sold tor unpaid
taxes at Barron, and portion ii
Rice Lake. Of the amount adver
t'sed about 40, 900 acres belonging
to Knapp, Stout & Co, and nearl,
he same quantity to al OF the 9th
er parties inclusive.
The main point raised by the
plaintiffs, we understand, is that the
tax is void owing to the illegality o
the rules of assessment The as
SCISSORS assessed the lands in accor
dance with certain special rules, in
stead OF following the rules preScrib
ed by the genera statute. By :
recent decision of the Supreme Cour
an assessment under these specia
rules was declared to be illegal
and the tax levied thereon was there
fore void.
In these cases Hunt & Freeman
appear for Knapp, Stout e Co.,
and <. B Bundy and F. J. Mclean
for the oaher parties. Dunn Coun

HELP Your WIvEs.-Help your
wives in every way you can, trivial
though 1t may seem to you. For
instance, keep an extra pair of shoes
or slippers in the hall or entry, and
always remember to change your
dirty boots before entering her clean
rooms Then you may be sure of
a smile of welcome, as no dirt will
be left after you for her to clean up.
In the evening comb your hair as
carefully as ever you did in your
counting days, put on a clean coat
or dresslng-gown, and when you
take your paper to read, do not read
to yourself, and leave her to lone
some thought, while sewing or
mending, but remember that she,
too, has been working hard all day,
and is still working Read to her
W hatever interests you, SO that her
interests and opinions may grow
with yours, and that she may com
preheEd something besides love
stories, of which too many have
read more than they should. You
will both be happier, and being a
farmers or a merchants wife will
not be such dreadful tiresome and
lonesome life as many girls have
every reason to think it is.
