Sioux City Journal, June 18th: About ten
o'clock Of Monday the river channel was
seen to change, and at noon it was cutting
all along from the foot of Nebraska street
to the foot of Jones street, a distance of 400
or five hundred yards, at a fearful rate.
Great sections, ten and fifteen feet in length
and from three to six feet in width would go
%plunging in together, and for a time it look
ed as though Sioux City would loose several
acres of her foundation before night. An
he smaller buildings in danger were remov-
eb at once, and arrangements are making 10
move others if the washing continues. The
old saw mill Of Rice & Spalding is being
moved for the third time this season, and
the large ice house of Capt. Young is in
great danger. Mr.. Young is having the ice
taken out as fast as possible, and will in all
probability save the greater part of it.
There are a number of families living near
the river in that locality, and should the
cutting continue to-day as yesterday some
half dozen houses will either have to be
moved or vacated.

EATING IS A TORTURE,

And sleep oftena mere travcsty of rcpose, to the
dyspeptic. Appetite is corrcspondingly impaired
by this most prevalent of maladies, and head
aches, biliousness, constipation, poverty of the
blood, loss of flesh and of vitality, and Il thous-
and annoying and indcscribable sensations, are
ITS concomitants. 1t is, moreover r, the %progenitor
of numerous and formidable bodily disorders.
az it is, however, its complete eradica-
ton may be effected by the persistent use of
Hostettcr's Stomach B!tters, a medicine which
communicates both vigor and regularity to the
organs of digestion and secretion, relaxes the
bowels gently, but thoroughly, %enriclles and pu-
rifles the blood, promotes appetite, and gives
tranquility to the nervous system. Persons Of
weakly constitution and feeble physique who
use this superb tonic infallibly derive from it the
stamina of which they stand so much in need.
and it is invariably successful in remedying and
preventing malarial diseases.

A MYSTERY SOLVED.

Last evening a gentleman residing a short
distance northwest of the city came to town
and impaired some mysterious information
to City Marshal Bates. The substance Of
his disclosures was that for several days
a closely covered wagon had been standing
in the vicinity of his home that a set of
harness were lying near the wagon, but 70
horses were to be seen in the ~neighborhood /;
that no person had been sen to 60 to or
leave the wagon, and that altogether an air
Of mystery lowered around The lonely vehi-
Gle. Yesterday afternoon the informer
trembling!y approached the wagon to solve
the mystery; he raised the curtain and q
strong odor of medicine-suggestive of
death and decay-saluted his olfactories.
He dropped the curtain, and fully satisfied
that something terrible had happened-a
lonely death, or probably a murder-he
fastened to town and informed the marshal.
Early this morning Marshal Bates repaired
to the scene and proceeded to investigate.
The curtains of the wagon were closely
fastened, and the harness carelessly scattered
around, but no signs Of life were apparent.
He raised the curtains and entered the pres
ence of the odor of medicine and mould,
and commenced digging down into a mass
of blankets and bedding in search of the
corpse. At the bottom Of the wagon he
found an explanation of the mystery. The
discovery was black grip-sack, which dis
closed the fact that the property belonged
to a gentleman we'll known in Yankton,
who recently made a trip in the wagon and
left it standing where it created the sensa-
ton while he attended to business in town.
The marshal hurriedly returned to town,
while the informer scratched his ear and
declared that he would be everlastingly dod
dinged if he wouldn't be less suspicious
about mysterious appearances in the future.

LAKE KAKpsSkA

- ".
From L. S. Deming AID George Stoddart
who arrived in town yesterday afternoon
from Lake Kampcska, we gathered some
items of interest in regard to that portion OF
the territory.
Tie Winona & st. Peters railroad is run
ming regular trains to Gary, which is located
near the Minnesota state line. The COM
pany are repairing the road between that
place and Kampeska, and promise to have
regular trains running to the latter place by
the 18th of July. The railroad company
recently sold q large body of land in Cod
ington county, to q German coloay, and one
of the conditions of the sale was that cars
should be run regularly over the road. A
number Of small bridges between Gary and
Kampeska have been destroyed by fire, and
the company is now employed in replacing
these bridges, and expect to have trains run
ming regularly the full length o fthe road by
the time above indicated.
The immigration into the counties north
Of Sioux Falls is represented to be UMPIRE
cedented in the history of the territory, and
the new corners are nearly all men of means
and enterprise. The majority of them are
from the states of Iowa, Minnesota, Wiscon-
sin and Illinois, where they have resided for
a number of years and acquired considers
BILE property, and now that their boys have
grown to manhood, they are coming to the
free and fertile lands of Dakota, where they
can procure all the land they want for them
selves and sons. Immense quantities Of
breaking is being done, substantial houses
are being erected, and the country which 8
few months ago was in its original condition,
is now dotted over with improvements, and
is rapidly assuming the appearance of civ
~ilization and thrift.
A petition is being circulated in Coding-
ton county, in which Lake Kampeska is
eituated, asking the governor to organize the
county. At the time Messrs. Deming and
stoddart left, the requisite number of signers
had been procured, and the Petition will
,oon be presented to the governor.
Maj. Bake, an intelligent and energetic
gentleman, recently from Minnesota, is en-
,aged in laying out a o W site at the lake,
is to bear the name of kampeska.
A gentleman is engaged in the erection Of
boat house on the bank of the lake, and
gill procure Il number of sail boats for the
ccommodation of excursion and pleasure
The lake is a magnificent sheet Of
gater, abounds in fish Of the finest species,
nd will doubtless soon become a noted re-
ort for persons in search of sport and re-

Editors Press and Dukouian:
Quite a party of our citizens started out
on Monday last on a hunting and prospec-
ting expedition. They have not returned
yet.
Tuesdays stage from LuVerne brought
Mr.. Murphy (of the firm of Murphy & sib-
bison) and family. Mrs. Lowering, o No,th-
field, Minnesota. who comes to visit friends,
and MI. Geo. c. Stoughton, ofchildren's aid

athree weeks visit 10 his friends in Dakota.
Mr.. S. reports the weather in the east dur
ing the past spring quite similar to that ex,
perienced in Dakota. Mr.. Murphy n
family brought along their household effects,
and are already domiciled in Mr.. Thomas
Lyons house.
We rotice in the daily of the 18th, Mr.,
Bonney, postmaster at Sioux Valley, in
writing up a trip to lake Kampeska, in men
~tioning the country between Dell Rapids
and Flandreau asserts that the country is
very fine, but that the Indians have the
best of it. We could mention a good many
farmers between this place and Flandreau,
who would take exceptions to the latter
part of the gentleman's assertion, and we
think that If he would make the trip a little
moro leisurely he would modify his state
ment considerably. 1t is true, the Indians
got in on the river, and secured most of the
claims on which were patches oftimber, and
it is probably equally true that those claims
are more valuable to the Indians than the
.neighboring CLAIMS would have been. But
the land secured by the white settlers who
came later, averages enough better in quality
for farming purposes, SO that in the hand Of
enterprising farmers, it will show its pro-
prietors the wherewith to buy more fuel than
they would have obtained had they secured
the claims which the Indians have.
Mr.. D.los Perry and family arrived from
Pennsylvania this morning, having made
