The n. U: Silver Cornet band pic.
mic and ball last Sunday was a grand
sucessI. For the former, the weathe,
was all that could be desired, but mer.
curry was much too high up during
the fore part of the night to make
dancing a pleasure. The gold medal
for the champion nine pin player
evoked spirited contest and the tro.
ply was finally awarded to Anton
Brey, although the claim is made that
it justly belongs to John Hauenstein.
We are informed that before the con-
test commenced, an agreement was
made that the sale of numbers should
be limited to 100, and within that
number Mr.. Hauenstein scored the
largest number of pins. The sale of
numbers was, however, continued be-
yond the agreement and Mr.. Brey sub:
sequently tied Mr.. Hauenstein and in
the throw off the latter was defeated.
If such an agreement as above stat
ed was made, Mr.. Hauenstein should
have been awarded the medali but he
virtually sanctioned the sale of subse.
quent numbers by throwing off with
Mr.. Brey and thereby relinquished all
claims to the medal. Despite the hot
weather, quite large crowd attended
the ball. The band boys had the hall
tastefully decorated with flags and
wreaths of oak leaves, and in front of
the stage hung large wreath bearing
up the word s'Welcome The trea.

Perished in the Flames.

Mankato Free Press:
Last Tuesday night about 2 O'Clock
the log house of Joe Dancer, three
miles east of the city, on the Eagle
Lake road, burned to the ground, con.
Stunning twelve year old son of Mr..
Dancer. The origin Of the fire is q
mystery, but the superstition is that it
caught srom a s,nudge. The family
consisted of four or FIVE children, and
when Mr.. Dancer was aroused by the
cracking Of the flames he at once en-.
deavored to save his children. He
succeeded in throwing all of them out
of the door and window except the
one that persisted, and when he fought
his way through the flames and smoke
to the bed side of that one, at the risk
Of his own life, and successfully car
ried it out Of danger, the child, hardly
awake, made his way back into the
burning building and persisted. The
father, nearly crazed, was taken to his
neighbor, Mr.. Ollinger, and his wounds
properly dressed. Wednesday morn
ing the embers were cleared away and
the remains OF the child were gathered
and inferred. Mr.. Dancer is a hard
working farmer, and the entire neigh.
borho0d mourns his loss.

WHEAT AND CORN.
Statement of the Department OF Agrf-
cuIture-The Crops of ISSO-SI.

WASHINGTON, March 31.-The following
statement relative to the corn and wheat
crops of 18S0-81 is furnished by the depart
ment OF agriculture: There are seven States
that produce a surplus of corn. These States
together yielded 1,046, 100000 bushels in
1880, and ,073, zoe, 900 in 1881. On the Doth of
March returns of the estimated quantity of
corn of the last crop in the hands of farmers
we're made from over 400 counties of these
States to the department. They represented
more than tvo-thirds of the entire area. The
percentage OF the product of each State still
on hand is reported as follows: Ohio, "a !;
Indiana, 27; Illinois, &c; Iowa, 26; Missouri,
Is; Kansas, Is; Nebraska, %. The average
is nearly "a per cent, and amounts to 49,
100000. The estimated proportion on hand
March 20, 1881, of the larger crop of 1880
was in Ohio SO per cent; Indiana, 80; Hi
pois, 80; Iowa, 46; Missouri, 80; Kansas, 80;
Nebraska, So, an average of 81 per cent, or
3SS, 600, 900 bushels. The same States pro-
duced 256,000000 bushels of wheat in
1880, and 169,000,000 bushels in 1881.
The proportion on hand March 10th,
as estimated, was: Ohio, 80 per cent; Indi-
ana, Is; Illinois, 10; Iowa, %; Missouri, II;
Kansas, 10; Nebraska, 21-nearly $4,000 600
bushels. One year ago the proportion re-
naming of the crop of 1880 was: Ohio, 80
per cent; Indiana, IS; Illinois, "a; Iowa,
Is; Missouri, IS; Kansas, 20; Nebraska, %
an average OF % per cent, or 100000
bushels. The results of this investigation
Indicate comparative shortage of 213,000-
600 bushels, or % per cent. less corn on hand
than on March 20, 1881, also decrease of
go 00O, 900 bushels of wheat, or A per cent.
less than on March 20, 1881, in these seven
States, in addition to the shortage of three
other surplus wheat States-Michigan, Wis
eonsin and Minnesota-which are credited
with $4,000, 600 bushels as their crop of 1881.

has become the attraction, and from all parts
of Italy, especially from the swarming towns,
the Italians will crowd thick and fast into
our own towns and cities where they can, and
into the Western prairies and the valleys
among the mountains when they must, for
the Italian, usually, of choice prefers the
busy life of large communities. Within the
last three weeks over 5000 Italians have
landed in New York alone. The steamship
agents report that a similar proportion of
Italian arrivals is likely to be kept up
throughout the year. These people are in-
defatigably industrious; they live on a mere
pittance, and they work for low wages. They
are quick and bright, make good laborers,
and are contented where they receive decent
iare and fair treatment. There are agents
in this country who provide for their pas
sage, and who are well informed as to where
work is to be had, and to those places the
newcomers are forwarded. The New York
Bulletin says that in that city 'Italian labor

pproaching nearer his own than any
here else in the Union. Such Italian
itizens as we have prove estimable and in

nd anxious to become citizens forming a
portion of the American people. |

Mr.. George F. Swain, instructor in civil
engineering at the Institute of Technology,
Boston, lectured before the Society of Arts
of that city on Thursday last, on "The Wa
ter Power of the Southern Atlantic Slope OF
the United States" The rivers described at
length were the Roanoke, Savannah, Broad
Santee, Oconee, Pacolell, Encore, Catawba,
Wateree, Yadkin, Deep, and Cape Fear. The
facilities which these streams afford for man
ufacturing purposes were shown to be excel
lent and the lecturer stated that within the
last year their resources have been greatly
developed. He believed it would not be long
before their banks would be lined with fac
tories. The cotton mills already established
are very prosperous, and the people are es-
tablishing new ones as fast as they can. The
facilities for the manufacturing of cotton
goods are unexcelled, and this industry is
destined to be a source of great profit to the

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
A wall from lhe mimi ward

The People of the Ninth Ward Ask to Subscribe
to Enable the Taxing District Authorities to Work
Their Streets.
To the Editors of the Appeal:
This is not to pave street, but simply to
round up and grade dirt road. the people
of the Ninth ward have paid their taxes as
promptly, perhaps, any ward in the city.
They paid the sewer tax as long as it was
levied without seeing a foot OF pipe laid
within her limits; they have paid all the
taxes levied by the District since its exist
ence, and have very patiently looked on
while the money was being expended in
other portions of the city. II the authorities
have done any work in the Ninth ward since
its existence, we are not aware of it. The
thousands of dollars paid by in taxes for
the last few years have all gone to benefit
other portions of the city. This was all
hard enough to bear, but when the authori-
ties, unblushingly send us subscription and
ask US to pay for little work done on a dirt
road, we think that it shows an amount of
cheek far superior to that displayed by the
individual who asked Beecher if he was
guilty, or who asked Hayes how he liked
the Florida count. To take thousands of
dollars from, and never spend dollar of it
for our benefit, and then ask US to pay for
the contemplate amount of work required
to round up and grade one street, taxes our
patience beyond endurance Let them give
us back our money and we will willingly
round up and grade not only one street, but
every street in the Ninth ward If the
Taxing District is bankrupt, by all means
let us know, and have a receiver appointed

BUSINESS FAILURES
For the Past Three Months Foot Up
2I9O-LiabiIities, $50, 33s,27I.

New York, March 31.-The returns of
business failures throughout the United
States for three months ending March 3Ist,
compiled by R. q. Dun & Co.'s Mercantile
Agency show: Eastern States, 1872; Middle,
sos; Southern, 700; Western, 523; Pacific
States and Territories, 167. Total, 2I9O,
with liabilities of $50, 33S,271. This is a
large increase over the corresponding quar-
ter of 1881, when the failures numbered
1761, with 50, AZ, $50 liabilities. The in
crease loss by bad debts this year is, there
fore, "a per cent. In 1880 the Liabilities for
the first quarter were but $4,000, 900, but in
1879 they were S43,OOO,OOO, and in 1878
SS2O00,000 for 1856 failures. So, as COM
pared with the first quarter of 1873, the first
quarter OF 1882 shows to good advantage
with 1165 fewer failures and $4,000, 900
less liabilities. In the Dominion of Canada
the failures for the quarter ending March 81,
1882, were 206 with Liabilities of s., 653. 900,
as compared with 166 failures and s., 026, 900
liabilities for the corresponding period last
year, somewhat of an increase, but there is
decrease of nearly 5 per cent. compared with
the first quarter of 1880.

CINCINNATI.
Business ImprOvfng-MOney Very Easy
Gas Per Cent.


CINCINNATI, March 3I.-At last there hai
come a week of fairly favorable weather, and
farm work is being rapidly pushed in all the
country in this vicinity. The season is fully
three weeks farther advanced than it was al
this time last year. Peach trees are in bloom
The effects of the floods and heavy rains are
not yet gone, however; in many places the
country roads are still nearly impossible,
and the railroads have light freight trains
well because of the inability of the farm
ers to get their grain to market and the bad
condition OF many portions of the track,
making heavy business undesirable, if not
impossible. The grain movement has been
much restricted, and this has had
much TO do with the high prices
ruling for some time. Wheat and oats, how
ever, have declined under receipts that more
than meet the demand. Corn, however, con-
tinues high, with increasing activity. To-
day it reached 734c, and sales were large
Rye has declined slightly, but had an up
ward tendency to-day. Barley remains
steady, with fair demand at 81 for No. 9
fall. Whisky continues steady in price,
with better sales than last week. Provisions
are firmer, with an upward tendency. The
Southern demand is better, owing to the dis
turbance there by the overflow and the loss
of stock and breadstufs. Groceries remain
active, with excellent prices, and even better
demand than last week. Leaf tobacco has
been more active, with firm prices, and the
market closed strong. Fine filters and cut
ting (old) sold at S25@26. Live hogs have
shown strong upward tendency. with active
demand; range to-day, S. 5O@7 so. Receipts
have been fairly large. Pig iron is nomi-
nal, the demand being very light, still man
ufacturers make no concessions. Manufac-
tured iron is firm. Money is much easier
and the banks lend freely to depositors at 6
al per cent. There have been no drains for
the country and reserves are full. Eastern
exchange is easy, selling at 1-20 premium.
Hoade in dry goods shows a manifest in
crea-e in activity, with stiffening prices,
though the volume is not so great az was
anticipated. The general line Of business is
better than Tor several weeks.

Irish immigration, according to Beecher,
is the peculiar trouble of this country, and
he thanks God we are young enough to
stand it, but he is especially thankful that
Ireland has not got many more to send.
'The Irish people," he says, stand alone The
most mercurial of men; men of great ge-
MUS; the most admirable creatures that ever
abominated earth. They have been the
ablest destroyers of nations that ever were
combined into armies; they never built a
nation and never will, pure and simple, but
cross the breed and they are admirable.
They come to us pure and simple, and are
vexatious to municipal government. By and
by they will be one of the most enriching
elements that can be named. Good as they
are in labor, they do make mischief in poll
tics" Yes, they are Democrats If they
were Republicans, perhaps Mr.. Beecher
would be as loud in their praises as he now
ia in oondemning them.
