WASHINGTON, D. c., Sept. 20, 1870
p. m.-[LatesL-1 A cold wave is adj
vancing from the extreme north
west, which will probably cause
damaging frosts in the upper Mis-
sissippi and Missouri valleys, and
upper lake regions on Friday and
Saturday.
Burglars made two unsuccessful
attempts to rob stores in Prairie du
Chen, on Saturday morning, at
about five o'clock. The Courier
says: "a pane of glass was cut out
of the front door of A. Kohn & Co.'S
store, and an entrance made. The
ringing of a bell on the money
drawer called Al. Levi to the head
of the stairs, when the would be
burglars decamped. The store of
T. l.. Brewer, was served in the
same way, but as before they were
frightened away, but this time get
ting few cents out of the till. They
are evidently professionals, as the
manner in which. the panes of glass
were cut and taken out, could not
be done without a craksman's tools.
No clue as to the parties as we go
to press"
In noticing the race at the State
fair between Burglar and Mercury
the reporter of the Madison Journal
says: "The running race, free for
all, mile heats, best three in five,
was the closing feature of the after
noon and the horses which entered
were: Burglar, owned by w. L.
Wells, of Lodi; Mercury, owned by
S. c. Ross, of Mineral Point; Tam
pico, owned by J. @. Smith, of Mad
ison; Icicle, owned by S. D. Macon
Der, of New Lisbon. Burglar won
three straight heats and the race,
making the first heat in 1:46f, the
second :46f and the third in 1:504.
Mercury proved a slayer and made
Burglar work for his laurels and
at the same time giving the large
audience a fine exhibition. In the
first heat Icicle was distanced, and
in the second the same fate befel
Tampico, who stubbornly refused to
run after making slow start. The
stakes in this race were the same as
in the three-minute race"
Two Milwaukee youths named II.
w. Goldman and George Mossler
engaged in a heated discussion last
Saturday evening. On Sunday
morning the war was reviewed with
a result astonishing to the jewellers
in this northern cline. After words
failed to express the feelings of the
belligerents nothidg but blood
spilled on the " field of honah "
would satisfy the gorish cravings
of youth, Accordingly they with
their seconds repaired to a spot on
the outskirts of the city, the seconds
produced long swords as weapons
and the principals requested to take
position. This was done so awk-
Waruly ny DOIn LnaG Ii was eVdent
neither knew what a sword was made
for, much less yield one in mortal
combat. One of the seconds there
upon remarked that fists were
weapons fashioned by nature to
beat, hammer, tear and cash the
fair skin of the tender foot, and with
the consent of the other they wou Id
withdraw the unwieldy pieces of
steel and decide the question with
natures arms. This was agreed to,
and the men toed the mark. The
result of the combat, as well as all
particulars, were kept quiet, but it is
learned that Mossler was sent to
grass and had to be carried to his

The Mason Mystery.

GALENA, H., September II. The
coroner's jury in the case of Fred
Mason, found dead Friday morning,
has concluded its investigations. 1t
appears that Kemler, the driver of
NJ. Miller's beer wagon, met Mason
at Hazel Green, Thursday afternoon,
and they drank together and started
for Galena, on the beer wagon.
They stopped at two different places
for drinks on their way and were
doubtless both drunk. Near the
German Catholic cemetery, Mason
wanted to get out and walk home
by Greenwood cemetery. He got
out and Kemler drove on and saw
nothing more of him. The next
seen of Mason, was when he was
found dead on Friday morning. He
was leaning against the fence in a
sitting posture and had then been
dead some hours. The jury found
a verdict of accidental death, evil
IDENTIFY believing that on getting off
the wagon he fell under the wheels
and was thus bruised, and his legs
and arms broken. To many it seems
impossible that after receiving such
injuries he could have crawied to
the fence. An attempt will be
made to fathom the mystery, but
it is likely to remain unsolved.
