COLLISION occurred between the
steamer Chicago and tho schooner Leo,
near the Chicago harbor, a few DAYS
since. The jibboom OF the Leo crushed
through the pantry and pantry roof on
the port side Of the steamer, and carried
away also portion of the rail of the
promenade deck The force of the blow
broke it off close to the bowsprit. At
the second onset the bowsprit of the
schooner struck the Chicago's wheel
house, knocking the lower portion into
splinters, carrying away the braces sup
porting the shaft, one of the wheel arms,
portions of two of the iron rims of the
wheel, and split, beside moving slightly
out of place, one of the heavy oak blocks
upon which the shaft rests. The bow
spirit of the Leo was lifted and broken
by the force of this blow, but otherwise
the vessel suffered no injury. The en-
tire damage resulting from the collision
amounts to between $500 and $500, of
which the principal portion falls upon
the steamer.

THE BLACK HILLS.
Two Rivers Men Heaping Up the Shin
inc Dust


ing Dust.
Notwithstanding the many contra
dictory reports that have reached us
from the gold fields of Dakota, known
as the Black Hills, it is evidently true
that the precious metal may be found in
those regions III paying quantities, if
not IN more abundance than was ever
dreamed of by the veteran miner of
40. As evidence of this, we have
only to quote from the report of John
b. Parsons. published by the Press
and Dakotaian. published at Yankton,
Dakota. He says, concerning the yield
of gold in special cases: sWheeler SEQ,
Montana men, in Lost District, are
taking ont from 81 600 to 81, 700 n day
to eight men, ''Bob Kenyon, in the
same distict, is taking out from 5000 to
$500 per day with four men,"
Claim No s, on Deadwood, is yield
ing $50 to $50 per day to four men
''Jas. Scott and Parker & Co, of Mani
towoc, Wis, have claim No. on Black
Ial, III Lost District, and are taking
out from $40 to $50 per day with forr
men, These parties run three claims"
Jas Scott, who left here about n year
ago has sent 500 in dust to his wife in
this village, which is now being coined
at the mint in Philadelphia Since Mr..
Scott left here he has been moro than
six months absent from the Hills, being
taken out by US. troopr, and what
mining he has done lie has done since
spring opened. There number in this
vicinity who would start immediately
for the Hills were it not for the hostile
Indians who bar the CNroaicle.

Cortland Wagons.

Mr.. JOHN LANDREIH
has purchased one of those celebrated
Cortland Platform Wagons from New
York, which in every respect is as near
perfection as can be devised. 1t has
come to be acknowledged that the Plat
form Wagon is the best form of all 9th
ers for general business purposes, par
ticularly for the Farmer, it having great
er range from light to heavy loads, car
rying it with the greatest ease and safety,
being distributed over a greater number
of springs, and supporting the load
nearer the wheels.
To the Farmer to whom light-draft. easy
riding wagon, capable of carrying from one to
1,500 pounds is necessity, the Platform Wagon
is peculiarly suited, carrying the family to and
TO market. etc, taking the place of the cum
bcrsome wagon and light buggy.
ALL WORK WARRANTED.
No poor Wagon is sent from the shop, and if
desired a written guarantee is given None but
the best material is used, and only skilled work
men employed and by buying material in large
quantities, and the use of every modern inven-
ton in the way of machinery, they are enabled
to make the best wagon for the least money.
Mr.. Lanlreth is Agent for Manitowoc county
and has made arrangements by which he can
sell them here at the New York factory cash
price and no extra charge for FREIGHT ana his
admit. air. Ian reth will be glad to show
sample wagons at McAlliS1er Farm, and give
any information desired.
Any word left at the store of j. f. Plumb &
Bro will receive prompt attention
The fame of the Cortland Platform Wagon is
worldwide and takes the lead OF ali other plat
form wagons in the essentials of lighJnesS, dur
ability, excellence of material and workman
ship. A few general facts will give the rea'ct
some idea of the amount of business done by
the company. The shops and yards er near
Iy three acres. In these shops they employ l20
men and turn out - finished wagons per day
Beside the Office in Cortland they have Il West
ern Office at Chicago, ana are otherwise repre-
scented in other parts OF the country j ne COM
pany is now shipping west by the international
Freight Line, and two cars per day are reqliiT-
cd foe their use. LEGO Wagons were sold by
the company last year, and from Jan. LIST this
year until the present time orders have been
received for $50. the company managers
skiilful and experienced worknen, and by max
ing every Wagon prove just what they repre-
sent it to he, using the best material, and put
ting together in the most substantial and at
Iractive manner, and giving the most perfect
fiaish possible. they redping the success
they 50 richly deserve. junl5-3w

SOMETHING NEw.-We call the atten-
ton of our readers to the advertisement
of the Cortland Wagon, for which Mr.,
John Lambeth has taken the agency
We have examined this model wagon,
and can recommend it as embracing
many points of excellence over all
others. It is light, strong, durable and
handsome, and is just what the farmer
wants. There are different styles and
sizes, capable of carrying from one to
1900 pounds with safety. Besides be-
ing good substantial aOagora, they are
as light and in many cases handsomer
than the ordinary buggy. The price is
astonishingly low, as those interested
will learn by applying to Mr.. Landreth.

"The sprInq Riss."

For years In California. ever since in
fact We have had q stock board 1T all, Il
has been noticed by investors and dealsrs
in mining securities that every year there
Is u general rise In prices and q cores
ponding decline. The regularity with
which this financial tide ebbs and flows,
has made that popular expression. :. The
Spring Rise" q household word. The
origin Of this curious movement In the
street Is not hard 10 find. The two great
interests Of the State are mining and agri-
culture. and we have not money enough In
the State to carry on the two at the same
time. When the wheat crop requires to
be moved. then at least ak millions OF
money have TO be drawn out Of circulation
for . time. A all OF the floating coin, all
that can be got st for any immediate pur-
pose 10 In stocks. II follows that when any
such demand IL made the necessary
amount must come from the street. Now
nothing can be better understood BY spec
ulators than that the realization by any
large percentage Of holders Of the value
Of securities will put the market down.
Again, rs the banks in the city carry q very
large amount Of stock for the brokers, the
moment they are forced to call In their
loans. the brokers are Obliged 10 realize
and then down 30 prices. This Is what
takes place yearly when the wheat and
wool interests need money to move their
products 10 market. Hence the
nnnual fluctuations In prices. Should
the New York Board prove to be .
success, IL Is likely that we may an.
| ticipaie much less violent changes than
those To which w have been accustomed.
When the time ZONES that the great de-
mand for money exists we will see instead
Of prices declining. u big expectation Of
stocks 10 New York and when the money
comes back to the State the importation
will be correspondingly large. That this
will tend TO steady prices cannot be donbt'
ell, and that IL will be q good thing for ms
Ia equally plain. In the first place. in or
der 10 get the necessary amount OF money
u will not require the sale Of a. much
stock. A the money will he drawn from
the East Ia move our crops 10 . great ex-
tent, IL will leave more that will be ayailA-
BILE ON the street here. thus enabling the
operators TO get rid Of the long period Of
dnllness which they annually suffer from
now. without money there can h. n0
market, and without n market neither
brokers nor operators can make money.
