GENERAL GRANT AT SAN FRANCISCO
OAKLAND AND ST. JOSE.

GENERAL GRANT AT SAN FRANCISCO,
OAKLAND AND ST.. JOSE.
General Grant arrived at San Fran
cisco Saturday evening September Goth,
and from the time the Toxic, on which
he was passenger, arrived in sight to
the present time he has received a pop
ular and spontaneous demonstra-
ton surprising anything ever be-
fore given to any American
citizen, or perhaps in America.
The TELEGRAPH will not attempt
to give an account Of it, for it
could not if it did. It may be said in
brief that it has been one continued
ovation, commencing with delegation
meeting him on the Toxic out beyond
the bay, and seemingly all the people
of SAN Francisco and many others col
Letting a., near the landing as they
could get to welcome him home, with
other demonstrations proportionate to
the numbers out. At Oakland and st.
Jose the demonstrations were fully
equal proportionately to those at San
Francisco.
Monday the Goth ult. was childrens
day in San Francisco. The public
schools were closed and the scholars
all met at Woodford's Gardens, some
10000 Of them, with their teachers and
,he Board Of Education, assembled for
the purpose of giving General Grant a
distinctive welcome in Il way all their
own, and right well was it done.

We have received the first eight
parts Of the work entitled "Around
the World with General Grant, BY
John Russell Young" We have not
had time to read them ror even to give
them a cursory examination. But from
what we have glanced at them, it is
safe to say they are splendid. II the
twelve remaining parts prove equal to-
the eight published, the twenty will
make a very valuable work.

The DeUZL-rUte OF

Our country is getting to be fearful
ly alarming, the average of life being
lessened every year, without any rea-.
sonable cause, death resulting general
ly from the most insignificant origin.
At this season of the year especially,
cold IS such common thing that in
the hurry of every day life we are apt
to overlook the dangers attending it
and often find too late, that Fever
or Lung trouble has already set in.
Thousands lose their lives in this way
every winter, while had Boschee's Ger
man Syrup been taken, a cure would
have resulted, and large bill from a
Doctor been avoided. For all diseas-
es Of the Throat and Lungs, Boscbees
German Syrup has proven itself to be
the greatest discovery Of its kind in
medicine. Every Druggist in this
country will tell yo, of its wonderful
effect. Over $4,000 bottles sold last
year without single failure known,

BARBER SHOPS.
There are three barber shops in Ke-
nosha. AS a large proportion Of men
are shaved or have their boards trim
med by BARRIERS, and all have their
hair cut and dressed, it furnishes en-
ployment for several BARRIERS And as
the supply is generally equal to the
demand, no one need go unkempt i'll
i KenOSha.
Adam Dickhaut is proprietor of one
of the barber shops, and he with his
assistants is generally ready to give a
: shave, I, sIl;mroo, OF a hair dressing
l without delay and " tie satisfaction
. of his customers.
Adolph Burg is always ready with
his assistants to give a shave, a sham
poo, OF d hair cutting or dressing with
/ dispatch and neatness.
William Dickhaut, master of the
tonsorial art, is ready with his ASSN
tants to wait upon his customers,
whether it be for shave, Il shampoo,
or hair dressing.
Adam Dickhaut and A. Burg have
been long in the barber business; Will
liam Dickhaut, Il shorter time, but long
enough to secure his share Of patron
ronage. all OF them seem to be doing
q living and profitable business. Years
ago Adam Diokhau5 and Burg adver-
tlsed III the TELEGRAPH, but they do
not now. Burg and William Dick

/ LIVERY STABLES.
There are two livery stables in Ke-
nosha.
JeWett and FrenZ, successors Of 3.
successor OF Perry and Nathan Nc
Commons, successors for a few
months only of Henry Jewett,
successor of E. M. Kinney, Of
long ago, are the proprietors of an old
and well established livery. It is on
the south side of Market Square lit
tie west OF Main street. 1t is on the
same ground and we believe in the
same building somewhat improved
that it was thirty years ago. Before
the days of railroads to and from Ke-
nOsha livery cOnVeyances were in great
demand but the railroads greatly les
sened the demand. There have been
other liveries during the past thirty
years but this IS the only one that has
continued through thirty years Oh half
the time Whatever the fortune Of OIL
ers may have been this livery seems to
have been fortunate and always TO
to have done a living and prof able
business. And we believe it has gem
orally been advertised and q card of
Ben. JeWett's Livery Stable still Ie-
mains in the TELEGRAPH, and B. r..
Jewett is subscriber for the paper.
Hiram Rogers, not long after the
opening of the Grant House, opened q
new livery stable on Wisconsin street,
! just east Of the Grant House. The
building was new, and we believe the
carriages, harnesses, &c, were generally
new. The opening of the Grant House
tended to increase the demand for liv-
cry conveyances and Mr.. Rogers opened
to supply the demand. And his pat
ronage has probably afforded living
and profitable business. When Nh.
Rogers first opened he advertised in the
TELEGRAPH, but recently he has not
ADVERTISED and he is not a subscriber
sor the paper.

DEADWOOD, the City of the Black
Hills, Dakota Territory, was nearly
swept away by fire last Friday morn
ing. The fire began about o'clock in
y bakery, and, owing to u high wind.
spread with fearful rapid1ty. When
the flames reached the hard ware stores,
the powder magazines exploded, and
soon after there were Il series of other
explosion which added to the confusion
Of the scene and aided in the DESTROY
ing work Of the flames. People were
reused from their sleep, and rushed
pauic-stricken in their night clothes
to places of safety. 1t is estimated
that about 1000 are homeless, and
many of them destitute. Nearly 200
buildings, including the principal bus
mess places, hotels, banks, ETC., were
burned, entailing loss of nearly ST.
100000. The insurance is compare
lively small. The records OF the county
were destroyed, and endless litigation
is expected to follow. 1t is reported
that several lives were lost, but so fa1
on'y one dead body has been found. A
company Of cavalry from Fort Meade
acted as guard over the rescued prop
erty, and General Sturges provided Ia
tons for the sufferers.
Before the fire was out, preparations
Withstanding the great number O
homeless and destitute, it is said tina
Deadwood asks no help and has ever
refused charitable donations.

doubtless plenty of people North and

during the summer, but do not feel
able To pay The rates of watering

their time at quiet country house,
