Mrs. Green and daughter Annie were at
home, and about five o'clock the latter
started for the pasture after the COWS, leav-
ing her mother at the house alone. Mrs.
Green is highly respectable woman, and
was IN good health; SO the surprise of the
daughter was great on returning to find her
mother missing. The husband and other
daughter returned from the city,
and still Mrs. Green did not appear.
A search was Immediately instituted, but
all efforts failed, and nothing has been
seen or heard of her since. None of her
clothing is missing, so that the only con-
clusion that can be reached is that she has
been foully dealt with. Mr.. Green,
after making thorough search,
came to the city this morning
to put the matter in the hands of the po-
lice. On Tuesday evening about five o'clock,
as Mr.. W. Fl. Lightfoot was going home
from the fair grounds he met just after
passing the house of Mr.. Green, two very
hard-looking tramps who made an attempt
to stop him, presumably with the intention
of robbing him, and the supposition is that
possibly these men have abducted the
missing lady.
TwBLNE-sIDED DUEL.
DENVER, Col, Sept. Particulars of
twelve-sided duel between cowboys have
just reached here. Geo. Howard, owner
of herd of 5000 cattle, and John Kelley,
owner of 1000, were driving in company
from Arizona east. North of Trinidad,
Colorado, on the plains the two herds were
to separate, Howard to take the old Santa
Fe trail to Kansas City, Kelley to drive
north to Denver. On the route accidental
exchanges had been made, and Howard in
sisted on having his stock out, but was un-
willing to deliver Keeley's, and it was
finally agreed to settle the matter by
battle between six picked men of each
party. Accordingly twelve men ranged
themselves on horseback, the two
sides fifty feet apart, and at signal from
the employers the fight was to begin. At
the first fire four men were instantly killed.
Geo. Lester, of Keeley's party, was shot
through the breast one of Towards men
fell with a ball through his head, and two
others of the same party were shot through |
the heart. Dismayed, the Howard party
with the exception of their employer fed |
to their camp. Kelley then rode up to
Howard and proposed that they should
fight it out. Howard declined, saying that |
he understood the matter to be settled |
according to the terms of the battle made
beforehand. This settled the matter. An
equitable change of the mixed cattle was
then made, the dead were buried by the |
other men of both herds, and the drovers
and those in charge separated for their diff
ferent routes.

Do you want to grow salt and at the
same time have an interesting. handsome
ornament? The proceeding is novel
chemical experiment that may be tried
by any one. Put in a goblet one table,
spoonful of salt and one spoonful of blu
ing; fill the goblet two-thirds full of
water, and set it in position where it
will have plenty of warmth and sunlight.
In little while sparkling crystals will
commence forming on the outside of the
glass, and it is both novel and interest
ing sight to watch it gradually growing
day by day until the outside of our COB
let will be entirely covered over with
beautiful white crystals. Another varia-
ton of this beautiful experiment. would
be to take goblet with the base broken
off and fasten it in the center of thin
piece of board, which may he round,
square or oblong. After the CRYSTALS have
