Suicide.

About nine o'clock last Sunday morn
ing our quiet village was startled by the
report that George Trussell, young man
about 80 years of age, and resident OF
this place for number ofyears, had been
found dead in Ryder's woods by Mr.. Fred
Stevenson, wife and sister, who were
gathering berries there. Mr.. Stevenson
quickly gave the alarm, and numbers
fastened to the spot where the corpse lay
in an advanced state of decomposition
A coroner's jury was Immediately i'm
panelled, composed of the following named
persons: L. H. Mead, T. Fitzgerald, J.
Bell, E. NJ. Dickinson, Alex Rankin and
F. Mcintyre, who rendered the following
verdict. Game to his death from the eff
fects of an over dose of laudanum admin
istered by his own hand" George had
been a victim of nervous debility and sub
iect to fits for number Of years. and we
are informed has made several attempts
heretofore to end his life. Our druggists
being aware of this have refused to sell
him anything that would destroy life.
Last Wednesday he left home telling his
folks that he was going to York to work,
instead of which he went to Marshall
where he purchased, with other medicines
an ounce of laudanum. The appearance
of the body when found leads to the gen
eral opinion that he returned from Mar
shall the same day, and when near town
entered Ryders woods and took the fatal

There seems to be some trouble be-
tween the Northwestern and st. Paul
Railways in regard to the crossing of the

there will soon be big row between the

which may delay the building of the new

John Long, of Columbus, an old man
over sixty, was the victim of a wicked
confidence game on the day of the circus
in that city. A three-card monte man,
pretended he had watched the game,
and could win, had he the money. He per-
suaded Mr.. Long to draw 81 900 from the
bank, that he might invest it. 1t was
done, the investment made and the money
lost.

Destructive Storm.

The storm which prevailed here last Sat
urday afternoon between and o'clock
was of more than usual severity in the town
of Clyman, six miles north of this city.
The course of the storm was southeastern
ly and struck in near the village of Oak
Grove, attaining its height in Clyman.
The rain came down in torrents accom-
panied by wind, thunder, lightning and
hail, leveling fences and grain in its
path. Wheat and oats were literally cut
and threshed simultaneously on many
farms, and fields of corn were torn into
shreds. Hail fell for several minutes
covering the ground to the depth of two
inches, and presenting picture of mid
winter in many fields. A large number
of dwellings along the line of the storm
lost nearly every pane of glass on the
west side The storm at its worst cover
ed an extent of country about three miles
in width and 4 miles long and doing an
amount of damage that can only be
computed by thousands of dollars.
Among those who suffered the most from
the ravages of this terrible storm are
Alexander Ramsey and James Welch
both losing almost their entire crop of
grain.

Weeds.

Would it not be well for the proper
authorities to see to the destruction of
this nuisance. 1t is reproach to our city.
A couple of years ago an ordinance was
passed by the Street Commissioners to
the effect that all weeds, thistles. burdocks
&C., should be cut twice each summer.
Is it the duty of the Council, the Marshal
or the health officer to see that this ordi-
nance is enforced? If either of these bod
les have outlived the period of their use
fulness let the people know it so we can
take another remedy. We might invite
the farmers of the surrounding country to
drive in their stock and feed upon our
rich pastures. Let us have more COWS,
pigs and things, but spare us of this in
tolerahle nuisance of weeds. If The proper
authorities of each ward took this matter
in hand the nuisance could be abated.
| would suggest that all weeds be cut
as the streets are fixed, and the parties
taxed to pay for it. This is the way all
nuisances are abated in other cities, and
it is the only way the thing can be done
with any regularity.

The NeaU Railroad.

1t seems to be settled now that a rail
road between Milwaukee and Madison
will be built by the Northwestern COM
pany, and that too very soon. The route
which the company have determined on
will run short distance south of Lake
Mills and between one and two miles
north of Jefferson. The right of way has
been secured through jefferson county,
which the village of Lake Mills will do
nate to the company, at a cost of $40, 900.
We understand that the right of way
through large portion of the other coun-
ties has also been secured. Mr.. Enoch
Fargo of Lake Mills who has taken a
great deal of interest in the building of
this road informs us that the Northwestern
company have given notice to those in
terested that if the right of way along the
entire line can be secured by the first of
August, grading will commence imme-
diately thereafter. 1t is quite probable
that the company will commence the
work from several different points at once
and it looks now as if trains will be
running over this line by early winter.

The FOLLOWING, which we, copy from
a recent number of The Minneapolis
Evening Journal, will be read with inter
est by large number of our readers:
Vim. f. Sommerield, Of Lacrosse, a
brother-in-law of City Clerk Mathews, is
in the city to-day, making arrangements
to form a stock company for the manu-
featuring of the Dane patent momentum
firing pin breech loading shot gun. 1t
will ONLY require Sc, 900 to start the enter
prise. SO as to furnish work for twelve
men. Mr.. Sommerfeld stands ready to
put in $4,000 himself. The action ele-
vating the breech is located forward of the
trigger. forming portion of the guard; a
safety catch prevents injury to the joint
when the breech is broken. tits impossi-
BILE to have an accident, as the pins which
strike the cap in the center of the cartridge
rebound and will not explode the cartridge
unless the hammers are raised. The gun
is a novelty and ought to take well. All
the gentlemen who examined it were OF
the opinion that the manufacture of them
in this city would pay handsomely. The
cheapest gun of this pattern costs 500
and an excellent one can be gotten fo1
1855. Mr.. Sommerfeld is quite confident
that the enterprise will be started in q
short time.

Curiosities of the Census.

Our city enumerators found on their
rounds few aged people. The oldest in
habitant was discovered in the I'd Ward
in the person of Charles Branigan, born
in Ireland December 26th, 1884, and is
therefore 96 years of age; but on nearly
every pleasant day he may be seen wind
ing his way on the streets greeting his
friends intelligently and cordially, hale
we'll preserved old man. William OFT,
of the First ward, is fit companion for
Mr.. Branigan, being SO years of age a
native of Germany, still healthy and Vi
gorous and living with the wife he chose
over so years age Then in the Third
ward there resides Mrs. Monica Reynolds
at the age of go years active and pleasant
and in possession of all her faculties. She
was born in Maryland about the time of
the adoption of the Constitution we have
lived under since we became nation.
Mrs. REYNOLDS we'll remembers seeing
| Washington and his wife Martha having
the opportunities presented n account of
residing very near the Capital. She re-
moved at an early day into Illinois and
has lived in Wisconsin some 80 years.
Widow Wilhemina Zahn abides in the
Sixth ward and has had 80 winters pass
over her head. Christiana Herold of the
same Ward is 81 years old. Both these
women are natives of Prussia the former
/ leaving there 20 years ago and the latter,
immigrating to America % years since.
We understand the largest families OF
| children are those of Christian Mayer OF
the First ward and Julius Sch@chert of
the Third ward each having II children.
Our three vigilant and untiring enumer-
ators failed to bring to light a single
American citizen of African descent,
and WATERFOWL will go upon the record
as colorless so far as her population is
concerned. 1t is doubted if there is an
other place in the United States Of its
size without negro in it. In the Third,
Fourth and Seventh wards there are 48f
dwellings, and only 3 vacant dwelling
houses. In the Fifth ward 154 houses
are inhabited by 1877 families, making
only.l3 cases where 2 families live in one
house. The Sixth ward has 277 dwell
ings inhabited by 296 families, leaving
only 10 cases of two families residing ii
one dwelling house. In the Fifth ane
Sixth wards particularly it was found
that the families were nearly destitute O
the young men between the ages of l!
wears and "a years. In these two ward
there were q deaths the past year, most
ly caused by diphtheria.
