The French Letters,

II 10 announced that the French
government has authorized another
lottery, SO pressing has been the de-
mand for it on the part of the people
The previous one excited urbounded
enthusiasm among all classes, and the
wide distribution of the numerous
prizes gave all ranks a taste Of the sat.
isfaction to be had in the easily &C.
quired gains of the lottery.
Yet neither the French nor any
other European or American scheme
compares in liberality with the new
one of the long established louisiana
State Lottery Company set forth at
length in another column of this
paper, to be drawn on the 18th Of
July prox., and monthly thereafter,
under the sole direction of Generals
Beauregard and Early. 1t will be
seen that in this scheme $4,000 is
given on s. ticket, constituting it
the largest offer for that price ever
presented.
That this company will perform all
it promises is now we'll established in
the public mind. The whole scheme
will be found interesting reading and
bear careful analysis.

Minnesota has been for many years
a favorite resort for many people Of
Memphis, Vicksburg and various other
Southern cities. The change of air
is so positive that the effects are de-
lighttul and permanently beneficial.
Hundreds have gone to that State Of
lakes, Of surprises, of fine fishing,
good living and charming resorts
every summer and returned wonder
fully improved. Now that the season
of the Southern exodus is at hand
and many can already see with the
minds eye the Minnehaha Falls, the
splendid hotels that have grown up
of late years around the leaf shaped
lake of Minnetonka and the cookie
shell boats on White Bear Lake, it is
in order to look at the map and
talk of routes that may be taken.
Nearly all Southern people going in
that direction stop at st. Louis. In
fact, with many it is taken as the
initial point. From St. Louis, over
the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy
railroad connection, solid through
trains are running to Minneapolis and
st. Paul in twenty-four hours. These
trains include baggage car, smoker,
first-claSs coach and sleeper, and pass
through Burlington, Cedar Rapids
and Albert Lea. Tie sleeper runs
through direct to Lake Minnetonka.
An evening train leaves st. Louis at
1885 and runs through to St. Paul, via
Rock Island, Dubuque, McGregor and
Lacrosse time, twenty. four hours.
This is known as the River Bank
Route For special comfort, safety
and luxurious appointments, this road
has no superior in the world.
An arrangement went into effect on
the second of July to open direct
line from st. Louis to Denver,
operated by the same company. This
is the only line from St. Louis to Col.
OradO under one management. Trains
leaving st. Louis at 9:45 am, via
Burlington, Pacific Junction and
Lincoln, will reach Denver about 2
o'clock the second morning out, thus
making the trip by the new short line
in about forty hours. This is the
quickest time yet, a fact of great in
terest to the travelling public. Mr..
W. D. Sanborn, at The St. Louis
Division Office, liz N. Fourth street,
is passenger agent, and will give all
information desired.

II. SEESSEL, SIR. a. S(hN. OFT
Shot HIMSELF

Mr.. Simon Pump killed himself
about 9 o'clock last night by shooting
a bullet through his hart. The act
was committed in the rear portion of
his store, No. 4lO Main street, near
Beal, and at time when his family
were seated in the front of the store.
Mr.. Pump was Secretary and Treas.
urer Of Noph Lodge X. s. B., and is
reported to have been $500 short in
his cash account. He has been hard
up for many years, and doubtless used
the money in his business.
The deceased was also Secretary of
the Pearl and TeutOnia Societies, and
Reporter of Unity Lodge X. of H.
His shortage and discrepancies had
been considerably discussed in the
lodge to which he belonged, and the
matter weighed heavily upon his mind.
He left letters to his family, consist
ing of a wife and and a son and daugh-
ter, giving financial difficulties as the
cause of his self-murder.
