MnlTARY NorEa-Adiutant General
Wood yesterday received from Philadel-
phia 5000 rounds Of blank cartridges,
for the use Of the military on the 3Oth.
The cartridges cost Sl7 so per thousand,
which will come out Of the state sPpro-
priAtion.
Maj. Sam. B. McColloch has been APP
pointed Adjutant by Gen. DnyAll, the
Post CommAndant, during the sham
battle.
The indications at present are that
there will not be quite &C many troops
here on the Soth as many had hoped for.
Tie University Cadets will be here, with
four pieces Of artillery. A portion
Of the Camden Guards, Of Mounds.
Vile, are also expected. The Da.
Wis Guards, OF Fairmont, will not come,
owing to their inability TO obtain salts

Company. The Wilson Blues, Of Burton,
have no arms, but some o. them may come,
and 10 case they do they will be provided
with arms here and assigned 10 guard

yer's Gap, are not yet uniformed, and
will not be here. The military Of Pitts
burgh, Washington and Waynesburg, Pa,
who were invited to come, will remain at
home and participate in decoration cere.
monies. Col. Baron, Of the Second Ohio,
has promised to bring up six companies
Of his regiment from Bellaire, after the
decoration ceremonies there. The three
Wheeling companies, with the Lindsey
Institute Cadets and two gatling guns,
will no doubt turn out in full force. It
is thought that the whole number Of
troops present will be from 800 TO 1000
men, sufficient to make 4 good deal OF
noise and smoke, and 10 give the public q
faint idea Of battle.
The steamer Telegram will bring an
excursion party up from Clarington and
points this side on Thursday. Viewig's
band will accompany the party and fur.
nish music.
Cockayns's band will go down on the

Himself Caught in Deaths Net
About 8 o'clock on Thursday evening, a
German tailor named Charles Karger, resid-
ing on Grove street, near Mississippi, died
quite suddenly. Inquiries made upon the
spot yesterday resulted in learning that the
deceased went fishing during the broiling
hours of Monday last, and returned home
complaining of great weakness and fatigue.
During the day following he was little bet
ter, but medical advice was not SOUGHT. the
man contenting himself with partaIing of
some .'bitters'' at a saloon which had emily
ened him on previous occasions of depres-
sion On Wednesday he improved, and on
Thursday he declared himself so much bet
ter that he expressed his de-
termination to commence work Yesterday,
in Auerbach, Finch, Culbe1tson & Co.'s
tailoring department, where he had secured
employment. On Thursday evening. at
the request of the deceased, Temporary
bed was made for him upon the floor. and
as he lay down he requested his wife to
awaken him in half an hour. At the expira-
ton OF that time she called him, but as he
failed to answer, she looked at him and was
SO struck and Mortified by his appearance
that she called In neighbor. which resulted
IN summoning DR.. Richeson, who pronounc
ed the man had been dead about fifteen
minutes, the cause being sunstroke in the
opinion of the physician.
karger was about forty years of age. and
leaves widow and four young children not
IN very atfiuent circumstances, Judging by
the appearance of his residence. AS he was,
however, member of the A. o. u. W.
fraternity, in good standing, his surviving
family will be very far from penniless. as
the order insures the lives of its members in
the sum of $4,000.

A Rising River.

The rise in the river continues. though
from whatsource the increased volume comes
it is hard to conjecture. Certainly there
have been no rains along the course of either
the Mississippi or Minnesota in this State to
furnish the rise. But the rise is here all the
same, the mark at the usual hour of record
of observation yesterday showing depth of
two feet nine inches, a swell of two inches,
and still rising. Yesterday the depth was
the same as on the day when the st. Louis
packets commenced making transfers to
light draught boats, and if the rise should
continue day or two longer, we may look
for the packets coming through again

FORT SELLING BRIDGE
Meeting of the Chamber of Commerce
Committee and Some of the Commission
erS.

Meeting of the Chamber of Commerce
ers.
Messrs. Dawson and Lindeke, of the Fort
Smelling bridge commission, with Messrs.
Allen, j. Ell. Gilman, James Smith, Jr., and
G. d. Gilillan, of the chamber of COM
merce committee, met at the Merchants hotel
last evening. Col. VIM. Crooks was also
present by invitation. The object of the
meeting was to consider the feasibility of
making the proposed bridge combined
wagon and railroad bridge.
The meeting was conversational and in
formal. 1t was generally agreed that the
present proposed location of the bridge rem
dered it impracticable to make it anything
but wagon bridge, and if the secretary of
war approves the plans and location which
MIR. Cochran now has in Washington, it will
settle the question and the bridge will be for
wagon travel alone.
To make the bridge answer for both pur-
poses, it will be necessary to go further
above the fort where the river is wider and
the banks some twenty five OF thirty feet
higher. This will considerably increase the
cost. 1t was thought best to obtain esti-
mates from practical bridge builders as to
the cost of the combined bridge. The Gem
mittee adjourned to await news from Mr..
Cochrans mission as to the acceptance of
the proposed location.

gentlemen both stated that the as
sessments on their stocks were exces-
sive, being some eight or ten per cent.
higher than last year, while values we're very
much deprecated, on account of the mar
kets being lower than last year. The matter
was held over by the board for ccnsid-
Grafton. At o'clock the board adjourned
till Monday at 2:30 P. NJ, when they will
commence the task of equalizing. During
the process of comparing with the assess
ment of 1877, the board marked down many
cases for consideration, which will be taken
up on Monday. and all who think their as
sessment on personal property is not equit-
able and just, should appear before the
board as soon as possible. The board will
readily increase any assessments which ia,
payers think are too low.

The seventy-fve turtles in the fountain
basin near the Fourth avenue entrance to
Gilmore's Garden had battle yesterday
morning. Such sight was never seen be-
fore. At least seventy-fve turtles lay to-
gether in an apparently inextricable mass on
the bottom of the basin. Two dead turtles
foated on the surface Of the water.
'Stir 'em up,'' said Gilmore, and taking
ex-Judge Dittenhoefer's cane he plunged it
into the very centre of the mass Seventy
five long necks craned upward; seventy-fye
great mouths opened wide; seventy five little
snake tails stood upright-but for moment
only. Then the fight was resumed. A queer
hiss escaped from each one. Then with
head cautiously peering from the shell, the
turtles rammed at each other. Now and

How the Victims of the Heated Term Paid
Their Penalties Yesterday.
@. G. Olson was indignant that the keen OIL
factory organs of John Patterson should think
pile of eight or ten loads of fostering stable
manure and other fitch on his premises should
be deemed nuisance. The Judge of the mu-
nicipal court gave him till to-day to abate the
nuisance and have all made as sweet as new
mown hay.
John Ferrule told the court yesterday that he
was never drunk in his life; he was sober, in
a little 49, drop of s'poteen"
for his stomach's sake, but the medicine did
not agree with him. and the medicine and the
heat together overcame him and made him real
sick. The court told him to go and sin no
more.
s. Hurd lives at 238 Seventh street. His
wife and his two neighbors are in the habit of
throwing their slops and filth in narrow alley

as keen that of a sleuth hound,
was down upon them. The two
neighbors cleaned their part of the alley
PEELED Hurd to interview Judge Flint to know
why he should not be compelled to go and do
likewise. The Judge gave him till to-day to

John Schultz was drunk, there was no denying
the fact-it was not sunstrokelnor collapse
from the willing weather, but decided drunk,
and the judge thinking the city would be bet
ter without him than with him and the few
pounds of stones he could crack, sent him out
of town.

Presently it seemed as though there were
two parties led by two extra large turtles.
Each party quietly moved toward a side of
the basin. Then they FLASHED the water
with their snake-ike tails, and then with a
volley of Kisses the entire phalanx
from either side pushed rapidly
toward the centre. The two bodies came to-
gether near the base of the fountain, and for
two or three minutes there was lively
mouth to mouth and shell to shell fight, al
the end of which all sank together to the
bottom of the basin.
This went on for nearly an hour, in which
time half dozen little fellows were killed
and the leader-known to many frequenter
of the garden as "Big Bliss''-of one of tn
sides lost one of his claws.

easily enough. [ have discovered GER
tain defects in the construction, such as
neglect to firmly unite the cross-bars sup
porting the tracks, and the careless laying of
the ties. There is a looseness in the ioin-
ing, and the result is that the loose parts
rattle and make fearful noise. I have in
vented continuance that registers these
noises-tells just how many of them occur in
given time. and locates them. The remedy
is plain, and consists in wedging and clamp
ing the parts together tightly, SO that there
will be none Of this annoying rattle. l got
up on the track the other night and walked
along it for long distance, observing these
faults of construction. You see they run so
fast and so often during the day that you
can't walk along the track then, but must do
your tramping at night. My assistant is
there now, and we expect to see the difficulty
fully removed in short time.''
