The Fourth at Cassvllle,

CAssvILLE, July s, 1878. /,
EDITOR HERALD: Our 4th of July
passed very pleasantly. No great
preparations had been made for a
celebration, except that the Rev.
Father Gmener had proposed to pic
mic in the grove with the children of
the Sisters School (Catholic) under
his tutalage, and notice in the Dn-
buque papers of a proposed Dubuque
excursion on said day to iCassville,
had the effect TO draw quite a crowd
to Cassville. The day was ushered
in by salute of l3 guns at sunrise,
and by 9 o'clock teams were coming
in from all parts of the country, main
ly friends of the children, who were
to be the main contributors of the
sport and pastime. On assembling
in the grove it was discovered that
some one was badly to blame for not
having raised aloft the stars and stripes
and after an attempt to raise them it
was found the halyard was foul. The
staff had to be taken down and a man
was dispatched to the masthead to
lower the flagstaff When he came
near the masthead, however, he dis
covered a family of hornets had built
their nest between the coupling and
showed fight, and being 80 feet above
ground our man, Mr.. A. Teasdale,
thought it best to retreat, and so we
had TO celebrate without the flag
hoisted. ite a

as climbing slippery pole, bag or

full than the rest, reached the goal.
On the whole, your correspondent
enjoyed but one previous Fourth at
Cassville better that was on the hill
back of the present school house, in
1854, when post haste / had on the
morning of the Fourth made, painted

boys. In the evening the yonng
folks wound up with dance at the
Denniston House, to the music of the
Italian band, especially imported by.
mine host, w. w. Forbes, for the oc-'
casion. Our Cassville Cornet Band
added their share to the entertain
ment, gratis, and on the whole, in the
absence of any spread-eagle orator, it
was voted by all who shared in it the
most enjoyable Fourth celebrated
here for many year. The only dis
appointment we had was the Emma

Wyaluslng Items.

The farmers began their rye harvest last
week, the crop is unusually heavy and will be
gathered in good condition.
Robert Glenn, chairman of Wyalusing
Town Board, was arrested last week on COM
plant of Milton Jacobs, (path mastery for all
legged neglect of duty in erecting guide posts.
He was taken before squire Jones, but called
for change of venue, and Davis discharged the
prisoner on the ground that it was a civil case
and he GLENN was taken with a criminal
warrant The general opinion of the neigh-
borhood is that the warrant was entirely un.
called for, and though Jacobs claims not, the
proceedings seem to be painted with malice
1t is well known that the parties have been on
unfriendly terms. iGH4
ID. w. Derby, of Wyalusng has an extern
sive collection of archaeological specimens
which he has gathered from the 'mounds"
distributed along the river. One versed in
archaeology could spend day very pleasantly
in examining his collection. He obtained this
summer two fine specimens of 0bsidian which
must have been brought from Mexico or South
America, one an AK weight II pounds, the
other peculiarly shaped instrument, the use
of which is unknown, weighs about 2 pounds
He also has 10 flint spear heads in length
from to 5 inches, several SHINING knives
shaped something like spear heads and from
4 to inches in length, also about 200 arrow
heads of all sizes, from ] to 2 inches long. and
several granite stone axes weighing from t to
81 pounds, with groove for whiting to handle,
also one copper ak, found recently, about 81
inches in length, width of bit Il inches. With
this AK he found string of copper beads.
They were about IL feet below the surface
and huge oak was growing in from the
summit of the mound. The beads were strung
on thread of twisted fiber about the size of
common twisted Irvine. In another were
found several flint avis and 40 bears tusks
nicely carved and drilled for stringing, also
stone pipes nicely finished. Three walrus
tusks finely carved we're found, but not in
very good state of preservation. He has them
imbedcd in plaster of Paris. Drinking cups
and water vessels of a material known as pot.
terry are generally found in tn e mounds, but
rarely exhumed without breaking, however he
has some fine ones. Skeletons are often
found and Judging from the size of the bones
the people must have been very much larger
than those of the present generation. In his
| collection one will see four hum an heads very
large aud in state of very good preservation.
1t may be supposed their owners were war;
| riors and met with violent deaths, since the
occipisal bones have been punctured as with
| pointed instrument, leaving hole about
inch in diameter. to all appearances the limbs
were buried in graves separate from those of
the trunk and head. There are many other
articles of interest, both ancient and modern,
foreign and native. which will fully repay
lovers of curiosities for the time and trouble

IF. Wedehase, saddle aud harness r.aker
of Lancaster, is making new style OF buggy
tops. The tops would not at first be noticed
as different from those now in common use but
a little examination viii show them to have
several advantages. The device by which they
are let down and up is inside and is as easily
regulated by the rider in his seat, as the open
ing or closing of house door. They can be
let clear down fat or set tar forward over the
dash, to shut off facing rain or sun. They
are also cheap and easily set on any buggy or
wagon seat. MrWedehasc has purchased the
patent covering Grant, Iowa and LA Fayette
counties. These tops win fast supcrsede the
old kind.
