| Boat. with Three Other Occu-
| pant>---The Boys Meet Death Be
meath the Dark Waters
Yesterday morning, party of five left the
| west bank OF the rIver, between the coal
| shaft and the bridge, to cross over in a skill
for the purpose of fishing in the bayou on the
| Missouri side. The names and approximate
I ages of the party were: John Walker, aged
| about forty five; Willie woolheater, -
| Fields, Daniel Williams and Enoch johnson,
| all boys, whose ages range from twelve TO
sixteen years and all were colored, excepting
WoOlheater. The skiff also contained a large
fishing net and a small child's wagon, the
latter to be used IN hauling the fish from the
bayou TO the river. This wagon caused the
death OF two of the boys and was the saliva
ton of another.
Tie wind was blowing perfect hurricane
up the river at the time, and thus ruffled the
swift current into huge waves, which made
the rejected trip a dangerous one, even for
a light skiff. The heavy load made it worse,
ami the wagon hampered the efforts to keep
the boat at rights. when the center of the
river was reached, In an endeavor to pass
from one end of the boat TO the other, one of
the boys upset the skif, and the entire party
were engulfed in the water. The Fields lad
succeeded in getting hold upon the wagon.
Walker and Woolheatsr managed to attach
themselves to the skiff; but the other boys
johnson and Williams, after a few struggles,
were carried beneath the waves forever.
The attention of Kelly Fields, father
of the boy in the capsizsd skiff,
was attracted by their vigorous shout
ing to the precarious condition of the
parties in the water. He was in skifi sew
eral hundred yards up the river, and the
wind blowing square against him; but he
took in the situation at a glance, and came
down toward where the party had upset as
rapidly as he could. He reached the spot,
and hand ed his boat and did his work in a
manner worthy of the highest praise. The
three were rescued from their perilOus strait,
and for Walker, at least, II was none too
soon, as he lay almost unconscious in the
bottom of the boat until the shore was reach
ed and then had to be carried home.
The bodies of the drowned boys have not
been heard from, and are undoubtedly miles
down the river by this time. They both
have parents here in the city TO whom the
blow is a sudden and crushing one.

4 Eerocious Hog.

Last week. a son of Capt. Packers, of tie
Bee Creek Valley mills, in Platte county.
was driving hog about three months old,
when it suddenly made a ferocious attack
upon him and fastened its tusks in his leg.
Pat Murphy, Of this city, who was working
in a stone quarry near By, hearing the cutlery
and seeing the critical situation Of the lad,
rushed to the rescle, armed with q drill six
feet IN length. But the Infatuated animal
turned upon him and made sach an attack
that lie was forced 10 retreat, while John
Birge, a stone-cutter working near at hand,
Skinned his way up a sycamore tree with all
possible celebrity. A dog was then put at the
hog. which was also whipped out. Finally,
a united eff IT OF all the parties caused the
animal TO be driven into Bee Creek, near the
mill. and il went under the mill-wheel and
was drowned.

4 Cows Gamers.

An exciting scene transpired on the streets
Yesterday about noon. A COW, which was
being led by rope, in the hands OF man
became maddened at the corner of Fifth and
shawnee streets and backed her leader mp
against the MaLsion House, butting him
along for about thirty feet with ,her head
Another man came to the rescue and beat
the cow with a club until she was little bit
subdued. She was then led down Delaware
street, and near the corner of Fourth and
Del ware she got excited again and ran into
two women, knocking one down and bruis-
ing her cons erab'y, and tearing the CLOTH
ing OF the other badly, and injuring her
some. She also ran into a horse attached 10
a buggy which X. A. Golfers little boy was
driving, and came near causing him to run
away. She was finally attached To an ex-
press wagon and the attempt made to drag
her along; but she resisted so that il was
fua.ly necessary to throw her down and
haul her of in a drsy, to be butchered.

The Ravages OF Consumption.

The fearful death roll, covering from a
fourth 10 third of the number in nearly
every published bill of mortality, shows how
vainly the medical professionals contending
with the cruel enemy of our race. Every one
feels that some new agent of relief and cure
is the imperative demand Of the age. That
such an agent, ac'ing in perfect harmony
with science and the laws of physiology, has
beer discovered in "Compouud Oxygen" we
confidently declare. Some of the most bril-
liant cures which have been made during
the past twelve years by this new treatment
have been in Copsu nption. The amplest in
formation will be fouDd in our Treatise on
Compound Oxygen " 1t is sent free. Ad-

JUsTIcE.-In the Lappin muddls, the State
authorities, assuming that Scrsford was equally
guilty, took his property TO help make up Lap
pins steal. Since Scraiford has been tried and
declared not guilty, his attorneys have made
application for the restoration of the property
thus taken from him; but Judge Foster denies
the motion, giving, among other reasons, that
it lie not good policy to open up the old trouble,
and to compel Lappin's bondsmen to pay the
loss. Add this is law and justice! Ono mans
property was taken to pay another's debts. AZ.
ter trial by Court, the former has been declared
not guilty of completely in the crime fos which
his property was taken. Yet the Judge decides
that bis property must be sacrificed, in order to
save men who are legally responsible. Has the
State q right to confscate one mans property,
to pay losses caused by another mani When
ScraffOrd went away, there was no charge
against him. His property was taken while he
was away. Has not a citizen right to go away,
without having his property conisca.ed, when he
hos not been proven guilty Of any crimei An
assignee aud his salrred lawyer may combine
to plunder o man, false accounts may be trump.
ed up against him, and the State may make
grab at his possessions but when be volunt ari-
ly returns stands his trial, and is acquitted of
all charges, Judge coclly decides that be must
remain plundered, lest his plnuderer, should suf.

1One Of the strangest reasons, given by M en-
of sense. too. for being in favor of the nomina-
nation of Grant by the Republicans, is, that he
is bound to be candidate, and if the Republi-
cans don't nominate him, the Democrats will.
If that's reason for anything, it should be .
conclusive reason why the Republicans should
not nominate Grant. The Republican party
cannot afford to nominate any man who would
as readily accept the Democratic nomination.
Such man is not safe for any party. He holds
his selfinterest and ambition above principle.
The Republicans might as well nominate Tildeu,
to prevent the Democrats from nominating him.
