B@rLast Friday night, the store of
Doud & Son, at Doudville, was en-
tered by two men and goods to the
amount of about $500 taken there
from. Mr.. Root, the manager, took
such care that he found out that
Frank Lavigre and "Curley Cum
mings' were the robbers. He sent
dispatches to Portage aud Kilbourn,
telling the make and number of his
gun, which was among the stolen
goods, telling the authorities to arrest
any one found with it. Last Thurs
dispatch was received from Kilbourn
that the meu had been arrested, and
Sheriff Wheelan sent his deputy after
the prisoners. They were placed in
the Jail at Kilbourn with hand-cuffs
on. Here they attempted to break
Jail and dug through a cement floor,
two layers of brick, and about five
feet of clay and would have been out
in twenty minutes, had not the author
tiles stepped in. They were brought
to this city shackled together. Yes
terday they had their examination be-
fore Justice Gets, of Centralia, and
were bound over in the sum Of $500
each, in default of which they were
committed to jail. The authorities
have hard customers to deal with and
cannot be to cautious in their care
Tribune.
Since the above was written and
through precautions taken by j. B.
Root, they have found a large trunk
full of the companies best goods which
had been sent to Lacrosse by the
thieves. Sheriff Wheelan took the
prisoners to Wausau for safe keeping.
Juneau who had escaped twice from
our Jail was arrested at Stevens Point
and brought back here. He also was
taken to Wausau. We understand
they will plead guilty after they have
been IN the Wausau jail long enough
to prove that it is Jail and they
cannot escape from it. The number
of crimes that has accumulated
against them will send them up for
a number Of years.

G1@T Case Receiver, as. d. III.
hetly and others. A decision has been
rendered in the United States Court
IN above entitled action, which was
brought by the plaintiff to recover
lands claimed to have been donated to
the defendants as trustees of the G.
b. i. NJ. 4. r. Co, and the title tax
en- by the defendants in their own
name to defraud the plaintiff of its
rights. The court holds that the facts
show that the lands were given to the
defendants who were officers of the
r. r.. Co. with the understanding that
they were donation to the railroad
company, but The court further held
that as the Company under its charter
only had right to accept sufficient of
the lands for right of way and depot
grounds. it can only recover that
amount here. The bill was demurFed
d 70 all but SO mnch of said lands as
'a'i'oao company could accept I'M
"si It's CHARTER. and the matter was
referred to Master to ascertain tbat
amount.

BIThusday evening was an event
full and interesting one for some Of our
young men. The way of it was this:
At about 10 o'clock, Thursday even
ing, as nightwatchman Bell was sitting
in front Of McCamley & Kings hard
ware store, young man approached
him, and, after making Billy promise
that he would clear him if he was
arrested, said that he had been asso-
ciating and drinking with two men
who had planned to rob three stores
that night; that they intended to first
enter McCamly Il Kings for some re-
volvers before they went farther; they
would then go to the jeWelry store of
n. E Emmon's and take therefrom all
they could lay their hands on; that
they would then proceed to the city
cash store and do the same; that he did
not wish to be prosecuted for associat-
ing with them, as he did not practice
the art. Whereupon Billy Bell went
to Ed Kings and informed him of
these facts. Ed went to town and met
a party of our young men just about
to disband for their respective homes.
He invited them into his store, and
armed them we'll with revolvers
Some went to Woods drug store,
some to Siocum and some staid with
King. The marshal of Auburndale
being here on duty, played the part OF
detective and tried to find out the
plans of the robbers, one of whom had
wooden leg. They came over from
CentraIia and proceeded up the street.
when they met Mr.. Bell in front OF
this Office, and inquired of him the way
to the Green Bay depot. He took
them up street and from certain indi-
cations they concluded they were
watched, and refrained from further
exposing themselves. Thus, what
might have proved a heavy loss, ended
in considerable sport for the boys
Tribune.
The above named rascals were again
reported in this city Saturday night
and were shot at by Waterman, Bell.
Should they return again they will re-
ceive a warm reception.

aGsy@A fire alarm was given Tues

pGy@A fire alarm was given Tues
day morning The fire was discover
ed to be in the cellarway Of Warren 5
cabinet store. The way it occurred
was while c. S. Warren was pouring
staining into can which was on
stove in the basement, some Of which
spilled in the fire and instantly flashed
up setting fire to the entire lot. Mr..
Warren took the can and started for
the door but on reaching it the flames
burned his hand SO he was compelled
to drop it. 1t fell into Il lot Of shay
Ings and fired ensued but was soon
put out by Il. G. Lyon who brought
water from his blacksmith shop. It
nevertheless created some excitement
and the engine was brought out and
worked for practice. Mr.. Riggs as
usual was right on hand.

gJM Mr.. and Mrs. Higbee lost their
last child, boy nearly three years
of age, on Friday evening last. He
was taken i'll the same evening one
week previous to his death with olsen
tary, which was followed by infamma-
ton and liberation of the bowels, be-
sides his being troubled with worms.
Though he suffered much, when deaf h
came he passed away in sweet sleep
never to awake in this world of sorrow
and sin. His parents has the sym
pathy Of large number of friends in
this hour of sad bereavment. His
funeral took place at home on Sunday
afternoon Rev. Norris officiating.
His suffering ended with the day;
Yet lived he at its close,
And breathed the long, long night away
In statue-like repose.
But when the sun, in all his state,
IlIumined the eastern skies,
He passed through glory's morning gate
And walked in Para1ise!'

What They Saw

We desire heartily to endorse the
good words spoken by our Racine
neighbor in the above paragraph. They
are we'll merited and seasonable.
Capt L G. Timme stands high in
the list of prominent republicans in
Wisconsin. His record as a soldier
and civilian is Of the best, his quail.
fcations are undoubted, and Kenosha
county republican hope that he may be
called to serve Wisconsin as its Secre-
tary of State. No better man could
be touad for the position. Keno sha
Republican Jonnat.
We fully and most HEARTH
endorse every word of the above Too
much cannot be said in praise of Capt
Timme or Of his qualifications for the
Secretary of State. He is the noblast
men in the State, and as universally
popular as he is brave and true. The
Captain at the beginning of the
rebellion, although but boy of
eighteen, enlisted and fought until the
close of the war, losing an arm in
battle. Aitlr his discharge, he
returned home and prepared for
college, but the people of his county,
irrespective of party, called him to act
as their county clerk, which position he
has filled continuously since 1865.
From long and intimate acquaintance
with the subject of this article, we
can unhesitatingIy say that he is our
choice for the office of Secretary of
State, first, last and all the time

BB%W We are informed that there is
a good prospect of Grand Rapids get
ting another line Of railroad. It is
talked of being built by the St. Paul
Company as continuation of the
branch which runs into Berlin. The
line would start at Berlin and 90 in
direct line northwest passing Auror-
awhile, then to Wautoma, to Hancock,
then to Plainfeld and Grand Rapids.
The object of this line would be two
fold, first for traffic and second max
line to run cars up the Valley Line
so aS to hold all the traffic from the
north which they can hardly do now
not being able to furnish cars to sup
ply the demand, their main line being
crowded with trains. But with this
new road they would then have line
to run up their cars and do a much
more extensive business.

Correspondence From Dakota.
Yours &c.
J. 7. LUNT.


JAMESTOWN, July q 1881
Editors Reporter:-I see by read
ing your valuable paper that quite a
number of Wisconsin people are COM
ing, or talk of coming here to settle,
After living here for nearly two years,
I think l can confidently advise
in relation to this territory. I
would say to one end all if you can
get a comfortable lioing in Wisconsin,
yo~ had better stoy there, than to come
to this tree5ess and a0jndy country
Yesterday the 21st of July we had
the pleasure of a visit of 1000, 600
grasshoppers, Gas near as we could get
at it, } and they were devouring hun
dreds of acres of wheat and oats, and
but for serene doors on the houses
they would come in and eat at the
first table. Last year the crops were
universally good, but this. year the
drouth and hoppers will destroy the
crops, SO there will be a shortage.
When a farmer has to draw water for
miles to drink and cook with, or use
alkali, he will think Of the nice
springs and brookiets that abound in
Wisconsin. Another great drawback
is the timber, all the wood used here
is brought from Minnesota, hundred
miles away and when the fall work is
done and the ground frozen man S
is done until the next spring, as the
winters and billiards. of this country
keeps everyone at home and all he can
do is to feed his stock, and eat up
what he has worked hard co get
through the summer. 1t is true a
farm is easily started here as there
there is no fencing to be done, as
the cattle are herded. The water in
the Jim River Valley is clear and
pure but on the prairie there is alkali
water invariably and in the Red River
Valley it is very bad, often so bad
that horses and cattle won't drink it.
There has been great deal said about
tree claims, but what I have seen Of
raising trees / don't think they will
grow, it is so cold in winter and windy
in summer. [ have seen some that
was started S years ago and it would
be hard to get whip from the whole
lot. There is a kind Of willow they
claim will grow but you can imagine
what kind Of timber willow would
make. There is also a good deal said
in the papers about coal some 10
miles west Of Bismark. They get
what they call coal, but it could be
used better as fire extinguisher, as
it will put fire out as effectually as
the fluid they put on fire. Every
bushel of wheat man raises here
he has to pay from Is to Is cents per
per bushel to get it to Dubuque or
Minneapolis, as they are the Markets
at present. We have good home
market here for whatever a farmer
may raise and it is only migration that
keeps up the prices There is moth
ing in the way of dry goods or gro
ceries but what will sell for as
much again as with you. Wood is
Sc per cord aud coal averages from
SO to S15 per ton. The -four we
eat is brought from the northeast.
Before closing I would say there is
hardly anyone in Dakota for their
health, but to make money.

p@As a giant Tree absorbs all the
elements Of growth within its reach
and leaves only sickly Vegetation in
its shadow, so do towering great Men
absorb all the strength and glory of
their surroundings and leave dearth
Of Greatness for . whole generation.--
