1t was reported last week that an effort
was being made looking to the reopening of
the gulch road down Confederate, but We
have heard nothing further about the mat
ter. If we are to have a road in the ggulch
this fall and winter, now is the time to agi-
tate the question. If it were made passable
now, we could confidently expect at least
eight months of good travelling before the
spring treshets would neressitate a return
to the hill road, which would we'll repay the
expense of putting the gulch road in order.

As Thos. Deyar mon, of the Madisonian,
was driving down Confederate gulch last
Tuesday, his team became frightened by
the thunder and lightning which prevailed
at the time, and, while he was out OF the
buggy, ran off, smashing the upper part of
the buggy, and scattering the contents on
the road. The horses were not recovered
until next day, but escaped without injury.
MIR. Deyarmon patched up the outfit and
proceeded on his trip Sunday morning.

A reported Indian scare comes from near
Deep creek, Missouri valley. Mr.. and Mrs.
Geo. Norton, with some others, were out
berry picking, and Mrs. Norton, becoming
separated from the others, was suddenly
confronted by three Indians. She screamed,
and Mr.. Norton ram to the camp near by
for his gun, but when he got to where his
wife was the Indians had disappeared. This
was last Monday. A person whose name
we did not learn met them the next day and
they told him they were Flatheads. They
are supposed to be the same party who
were camped by Stones ranch, near the
Springs. a short time ago The settlers
around Deep creek nave been watching the
stock pretty closely since Monday, but no
attempt has been made to steal any rs yet.

| Conrad Knapp, the man who is starV-
ing himself to death, is a resident of Keo-
kuk, and has been for the past twenty
| two years. For number of years he has
| been employed in the Keokuk and Des
Moines car shops at Keokuk. Nothing
unusual was noticed in him until it was
announced that the Rock Island railroad
| had leased the Keokuk and Des Moines,
and the probability was that the shops
would be removed from Keokuk. This
seemed to add to Conrad's troubles, and
it began to be noticed in the shops that he
acted very queerly. His fingers were al
ways in motion, and he seemed to be con-
stantly figuring. He grew worse, and
| finally it got so that it took him three
days to do job of work which he used to
| do in as many hours. He Jagged so in
! his work that he was discharged about
! six weeks ago, and then he became con-
| vinced that his family were destined to die
| bv starvation. Four weeks ago, when in
vited to sit down to the table, he refused,
saying there would not be enough to keep
the family, and from that time to this
day he has eaten nothing except during
the first week an apple occasionally. For
the past three weeks he has tasted abso-
| lutely no food at all, and for the past
| twelve days not drop of water or any
! thing in liquid shape has passed between
| his lips DR.. Wiseman, who is an old
| friend of Knapp's, has been attending
| him, and has endeavOred to coax him to
take some medicine, but he firmly refuses
! int ffa
drink or partake of food, he gets up and
leaves the room.
For six weeks he has not laid down IN
a bed, and has had scarcely twenty-four
hours sleep in all that time. He sits up
| in a chair and occasionally, through sheer
exhaustion, will fall into doze, but he
soon wakes up, and is as immovable in his
purpose to starve himself to death as ever.
| Every conceivable means has been used
| to induce him to take food, sip water, or
| to take medicine, but all without avail.
He remains firm in his refusual, and per-
sists in saying that it is fate-the fate of
the family to starve, and that the rest will
| follow him soon enough. There is an
evident softening of the brain, yet he re-
members and recognizes his friends and
occurrences that happened years ago.
He is not large man, only medium
size, and his long fast has emaciated him
fearfully, and his body begins to emit a
sickenfng odor, so strong as to be almost
unbearable to those who have not been
accustomed to being in his presence. He
is haunted with fear that the men he
loves about town are in search of him and
want to put him in the calaboose, and will
sit by the window all day narrowly scan
ming all passers-by.
