ION TO THE BIG HORN"
Where Gold Abounds in Streams
and Mountains.
The Evidence Thereof as Given by Those
Who Have Been There-A Hun
ter's Paradise.


in vast placer and quartz deposits OF
gold cannot be a matter of doubt. We
have the testimony of veteran pros
pectors, scouts and guides to this effect,
and this region being now thrown open
to exploration and settlement, its vast
mineral will soon be devel-
oped. Gen. Custer, just before his
death, said to a reporter:
"The mining party from Bozeman
that 1 spoke of, set out for that region.
A few persons had contrived in the
past, when the Indians were not trou-
blesome, to enter a portion Of it, and
they returned with wonderful stories
of the riches hidden there; and fine
specimens of gold were shown as
proof. Gen. Sheridan, in his letter to
Gen. Sherman, corroborates this view,
and he thinks that the wealth of the
Big Horn country will be found to sur
pass that of the Black Hills. Beyond
report nothing positive is known about
it."
VIM Suii. al elu hloulllsilllCtls III
makes his headquarters at Rawlins,
Wyo., says:
81 have myself seen gold in the pos
session of Indians at Boray's ranch
and at several other places, which they
traded at the posts for goods. But this
is no reason for me to suppose hat
they took it from the ground them
selves, and l should rather suspect that
they had taken it from miners whom
they had found in the mountains and
killed.
ssFor game no place in the world can
beat the Big Horn country; there are
any amount of antelope, black and
white tailed deer, Rocky-mountain
sheep, elk and moose, buffalo and
bison, cinnamon, black and grizzly
bear, and Rocky-mountain lion, wild
cats, silver-gray, black and red foxes,
etc. Mountain grouse, sage hens, geese,
ducks and chickens are found in great
abundance. Swarms of trout and other
fish in the streams"

Sidewalk N office.

To-day FRIDAY the 2Oth) was the day
for trial in the county court of the numer-
Gus cases against people for not building
sidewalks, and City Atty Gest could have
taken judgement against every one of
them-those who have as we'll as those
who have not complied with the order
and the costs are heavy iu each case. But
in order to give all last chance he had the
cases postponed for 20 days. and now the
City Atty gives this notice: All who
will build their walks within the coming 20
days, and then prove before the county
court that they have complied with the
order, will be discharged without costs.
1t is not only necessary to build the walks,
as ordered, but it is necessary to prove
that fact, in court. AL! those who neglect
attention to this notice will find judgement
against them for the sums assessed by the
commissioners, and a big bill oe costs
besides. Those who want any grading
done should leave notice, Immediately, at
the city clerks office, and it vii! be atten-
ded to- The city authorities mean bust

Murder in Davenport.

Between IL and II o'clock on Saturday
forenoon. the 21st, girl named Minnie
Brannicke, an inmate of house OF i'll
fame known as the BLACK Hill, just
opposite the northern boundary of the
Davenport fair grounds, was shot in the
head and instantly killed, it is thought, by
a man named Richard Thomas. Thomas,
a man named Ambrose Bowen, from
Rapids City, and two Swedes, whose
names are not known, visited the bagnio,
which is kept a man named L. Q. Helm
richs and his wife, Christina. The men
had all been drinking and were disorderly.
They drank some beer, and then COM
menced to abuse Minnie and call her very
bad names, while Thomas, il is claimed.
demanded that she should re turn him So
which he had given her. They were
ordered to leave the house, and the whole
party arose and walked out Near the
door Thomas drew a small (six-shooter)
revolver and Will lie he was standing on the
doorstep, the door being partly shut, he
turned and discharged his revolver. the
ball passing through the door and striking
Minnie one inch above the left eye and
glancing obliquely upwards through the
brain to the distance OF 6s inches, She
was instantly killed. After the shooting
the men hurried off, but Thomas was
afterward arrested in a street car anG
jailed by Officer Purcell. The other three
men escaped.
Coroner Grant is now holding an inquest
on the body of the girl, and the evidence
elected is about as given above.
The girl had only been at the "BlacE
Hills about days she came from Mo
line, where she had worked at the Reese
House, and other places. She was abou
"a years of age, and, though soiled dove
did not sustain very notorious character
Thomas is short, thick-set man, aDou
25 years old, and says he lives in Oska
loosa, Iowa. He says he was in the crow(
when the shooting occurred, but denie
that he did it. He had been working il
Rapids City, for several months past.

Kerry Cow.

A large audience, composed of the elite
and intelligence of Rock Island assembled
at Darts Hall, on Saturday evening, to
witness the performance of Kerry Gov"
10 which MIR. Joseph Murphy appears as
Dan o Hara, a character which affords
full scope for his versatile talents as q really
great Irish comedian.
The audience expected some fine acting
from Murphy, as his success had been
heralded all over the country, and they
were not disappointed. The character is
one requiring fine talent, and to say that
Mr.. Murphy performed his part faultlessly
is simply stating fact His easy manner,
ready replies and sparkling witticisms
called forth round after round of applause
In fact his acting was so natural that one
could almost imagine the original present
The New York press stamps this as his
master personation and his excellent acting
on Saturday shows that he has not beer
overestimated.
Miss Blanche DeBar, as Nora, charm
ing Irish girl, is beautiful and accom-
plished actress Her PRESERVATION of thu
character is excellent, especially where
the finer feelings OF human nature ar,
exhibited, the affectionate and emotiona
of woman nature, In which she appear
to admirable advantage.
Mr.. Murray as Valentine Hay, Mr.
ONeil as Major Gruff. and Mr.. Wybert a
Raymond Drew were especially excellent
but where all acquitted themselves 8
admirably it seems invidious to particular
ize.
The troupe is one Of the best that ha
ever visited Rock Island and should Mi
Murphy conclude to visit us again h
can be assured of hearty reception.

1t is gratifying to the proprietor of these medi-
cines to be able to state that it is nearly 80
years since they were first introduced; during
which time they have been extensively used in
various parts Of the United States, and have given
TO patient and practitioner the highest degree Of
satisfaction in the various cases in which they
have been employed: whether In town or country
hospital, or private practice, they have invariably
given the most decided and unequivocal satisfac-
ton, and produced the most sautary and beneficiS
effects Numerous letters have been received from
some OF the most distinguished Physicians in the
country and from the Professors OF several Med
ical Colleges, all recommending in the highest
terms, the value OF these medicines, and their su
periority over other preparations for such COM
plants as the proprietor recommends.
