A Hartford Church Reopenes-An Inter-
 esttng Occasion.

esttng Occasion.
 The fine Westerly granite Episcopal church, situated nearly opposite the State Arsenal on
 Windsor avenue Hartford, was reocoupied Sunday, July 15 for the first time in eight years, The church was built at cost of about S42, 5o0 but all the bills were not paid upon it's completion, there being then due to contractors $22, 800. The late Rev. Mir. Tremaine became the rector, and @ respect able society regularly assembled there. The Rev. c. 0. Gardner succeeded MT. Tremaine; ard MT. Whaley. the present rector, followed MT Gardner. For years the contractors kept possession of the building The society built little wooden structure by it's slde and there worshipped in peace For years the larger building was idle. Recently the society have made an arrangement whereby they gained control of the original building, they paying to Mir. Howe $500 year for five years, and then having the privilege of securing a clear title to the building by pay ing to him $9, 900. Under this arrangement the church was occupied last Sunday for the first time The occasion was naturally one of singular interest. The Rev. w. F. Nichols, of Christ church, preached a sermon appro- priately referring to the long struggle of the church and it's present good fortune in se- curing at last it's proper place of worship.

Murder and ATTEMPTED Suicide.

| Pioneer, 9th: At o'clock last even
ing Charles Wilson shot and instantly
killed Kitty Clyde, an inmate Of the
Gem dance house, and attempted to ter
inmate his own existence, but tempora-
rily, at least, failed. Both parties are
recent arrivals from Chicago, although
Wilson formerly resided in this city.
He is Il painter 10y trade, a good work
man and well known. In gathering the
company recently brought west by Man
ager Swearingen, Wilson iucluded the
woman Clyde whom he adopted as his
mistress, and for whom he processes the
greatest affection. On Sunday they en-
joyed a carriage ride around the belt,
returning apparently in the best Of
spirits. That evening, however, fatal
@front was given by the woman accept
ing the company Of comparative
stranger. Oyer this Wilson brooded
greatly until 4 o'clock last evening when
he quit work on the new school house
and after changing his clothing, pro.
ceeded directly to the room of the wo-
man. Exactly what transpired will
never be known. Soon after entering
the room two pistol shots in rapid sue
cession summoned the inmates of the
establishment, and upon opening the
door a CHASTITY sight was beheld, the
woman motionless in death, and her
destroyer writhing in intense agony,
while the smoking pistol between the
bodies told its silent tale Of crime.

Gov. Ordway in his annual report to
the secretary of the interior, referring to
the division and admission scheme saws:
I'm dealing with THE question / have
been governed by my oath Of office and
the provisions of the organic act which
requires me, as the executive officer OF
the territory, to see that the laws are
faithfully executed. / have therefore
become compelled to discountenance
the wild vaporings of demagogues who
have sought to inhame the public mind
against the federal government and
cause an unlawful change from terrtori-
al to state government without the sane
ton of congress, even though these
vaporings emanated from the Uuited
States officials, whose counsels and con-
duct have been in direct violation OF
their oaths Of Office"
Gov. Ordway recommends that. il
congress does not see fit to create a new
state, it pass an act calling constitu-
tional convention, the include all the
counties, and that it have power to
prepare one or two constitutions, as the
majority shall determine, which shall
be submitted to congress for approval

The Sioux City & Pacific railrod COM
pany's bridge over the Missouri near
Blair, was opened for traffic last Satur-
day with becoming formaities. At first
sight the new bridge does not create a
very favorable impression. 1t is situat-
ed In treacherous part Of the river,
and apparently SO high as to appear top
heavy. Closer inspection, however, con-
firms the claims Of the constructing en-
gineer, that it is the best of the eleven
structures now spanning the "Big
Muddy" and will serve as q useful
model for other enterprises of a like
nature. The bridge proper consists of
three through spans Of iron and steel.
resting on four masonry piers, with a
short deck span at each end. The
through spans are each $50 feet long. be-
tween centres of pins, and the distance
from centre to centre Of the east and
west piers, is 999 feet The length of
the permanent iron structure, is 1870
feet The lower chords Of the through
spans are placed fifty feet above high
water, thus giving free passage to steam
bouts without draw. The four piers
are built of yellow sandstone, the cut
waters of the two channel piers being of
granite. Each of the four piers is found
ed on timber caisson 54x26 feet, sunk
to the rock below by the plenum pneu.
matte process, and filled with the best
Portland cement concrete. Air pressure
was put on the first caisson on the 22d
of November, 1882. and the last founda-
ton was completed on the 10Th of April,
1883. The total outlay so far has been
about $SC 1000. and it is estimated that
100000 more will cover the cost Of the
work vet to be done

Lisbon Ransom county, over reported
gold discoveries in the valley of the
Cheyenne river. Lisbon is located in
the geographical center of Ransom coun.
ty, on the Cheyenne, about fifty miles
southwest Of Fargo. 1t is just now the
| center Of attraction for northern Dakota
and promises to boom as mining camp.
Gold is found III the sand and gravel
and quartz formation which crops out
from the bluffs of the Cheyenne. A
hundred and fifty assays Of the rock and
grave! have been made with results
varying from $3.50 to S43.O0 of gold per
ton and some silver. If this should
prove to be genuine gold field it will
overturn some we'll established theories
regarding mineral finds. The region is
far from the mountains and the Chew
enne in its tyrtuous windngs does not
travel any lnown gold field. In the
centuries OF the past there has been an
eruption along that section of Dakota.
which pushed the igneous rock from the
depths below to the surface. Lisbon is
located on the top Of the narrow divide
formed by this upheaval which turns
the waters Of the Cheyenne from n
southward course to 4 northward course.
This divide tends southwark and east
ward and passes out of Dakota between
Lake Traverse and Big Stone Lake.
There must have been considerable
convulsion of nature in those days, and
the present indication is that the dis.
turbance brought precious rock from the
bowels of the earth and cast it upon the
plains of Ransom county. At any rate
the people up there have faith in their
find, and are organizing companies to
work up the rock and deprive it of its
wealth
