Moscow, July 13.-Skobeloif is indeed dead but
the details officially published concerning the
manner and place of his decease are said to be
absolutely false. The facls are Us follows: "The
evening before the Generals death he was in his
usual health and spirits, and dined heartily with
some boon companions at one of the best restau-
rants in the town. After dinner the party pro.
ceeded to the ErmitagG Gardens, place of enter

character ns the Cremorne Gardens used to be in

Hotel d Angleerre In this hot, and in this So
cety the General died Skobclef had numerous
enemies, and by many 1t IL believed that he was
the victim of foul play; but those who best knew
his character, and also know who were in his COM

probable that he was killed by one of his male

Special Correspondence OF THE REPUBLICAN;
Huron, OAK, July 23.-This lively Western town
Is situated on the Dakota or James River, usually
called Jim River for short in this country on a
line Of the Chicago and Northwestern Railroad,
662 miles west Of Chicago, a70 west OF the Missis-
sippi River and about 100 miles east Of the Black
Hills. The town Is two years old, and contains
1900 inhabitants, possesses four good hotels two
banks, three nowspapors-one daily-a United
States land-ofice, deputy collector of internal
revenue office, and the usual number Of drinking
saloons that alwnysfgo 10 make up Western
town. The country surrounding is rich, level
prairie. You can see in any direction twenty
miles with good glass Huron is ambitious to
be the capital of the Territory or State when ad !.
mitted. They have laid or a large square about
SIX inches higher than the rest Of the town, which
they call Capitol Hill and are holding II for the
site of the new capitol buildings when that much =
coveted prize is secured.
THE TOWN OF MITCHELL,
sixty miles south, and Pierre 100 miles west of
this place. are also candidates for capital honors,
and the fight wakes hot between the three towns.
The Jim River abounds In fish, Plckerel are
caught weighing six pounds, and there is no end
wild duck and few prairie chicken as we came
along in the cars. Gentlemen on the train would
shoot at them from the car windows without any
visible effect on the ducks except to make them
dive, and the chickens to make them fly away
rather hurriedly. l intend n try my luck in the
Jim River fishing before leav We, and will let you
known the result.
THERE Is UNITED STATES SIGNAL OFFICE
in town, and last evening, in company with sew
era gentlemen, we visited the Office aud were in
vied by the polite sergeant 10 60 up on the roof
and see sunset on the prairie. Ii was grand, ]
assure you, and being the first one ever saw, en-
joyed II very much. As faras the eye could reach
it was one broad level prairie, checkered with
waiving fields of wheat, corn, and barley, lit up
by the suns departing rays. II was picture that
once seen never will be forgotten. The cabins of
settlers appeared like the sails OF tiny boat far
out at sea. The weather is delightful here and
the crops all look well. Wheat especially is very
heavy, aud If nothing happens to 1t for The next
two weeks there will be an en- rmous yield. For
restburg is about thirty miles down the Jim River
morrow. L. l.. G,
