EAU CLAIRE, WIS.
Especial Correspondence of the Globe

EAU CLAIRE, Sept. 20-The floods having sub
sided. taking the bearing and soundings, and
measuring the value of property at what it
would sell for in the market, the present situa-
ton is about as follows The cause of the ex-
IRENE high water was the giving way of flooding
dams above Chippewa Falls. The rain fall in
itself, was not sufficient to have raised the water
above the danger line. The most striking and
obvious feature is the loss of First avenue.
Where houses stood on the east side of the street
and the street itself is now the bed of the river.
The saddest feature is the effect produced on the
minds of the people. many of whom have become
insane. If my one doubts this let him read the
list of losses published by the Free Press and re-
published in yesterdays GLOBE. If the assess
ors, appointed by the council last night, should
undertake to fix the value of the property that is
left, on the same basis it would, no doubt, bring
the people back to their normal condition, but
there would be some of the most lofty kicking
ever seen in theis. part of the country, and the
people of Minneapolis would become noted for
extreme modesty in placing such low estimates
on the value of their property, While great
many people have suffered no inconsiderable
losses that have not been mentioned at all in our
city papers, $3.50, 000 divided pro rata among all
who have met with losses, would, so far as
dollars and cents is concerned, set every man to
chuckling and to thinking that the flood was not
such bad thing after all.
Many believe that the pool company, which, it
is said, own and control the flooding dams, are
legally responsible for the losses, on account of
the imperfect construction of the dams and by
reason of their negligent management of them.
1t is thought that if the gates had been opened
when the water first commenced to rise the whole
trouble would have been averted. Rumors are
afioat that suits have already been commenced
against them by the Milwaukee Railroad COM
pany and others.
Judge Larson, the Democratic nominee for
congress in this district is man of good ability
and of irreproachable character. While it may
be true, as claimed, that there are certain COM
binations at work in this city that will cost him
many Democratic votes it is not at all to his dis
credit and it is certain that Bill Price will not
get all the Republican votes cast in this city on
election day.
The September term of the circuit court for
this county will be adjourned sine die on account
of the floods.
The Methodist parsonage, which was house
of refuge to at least flooded out family dur
ing the flood was burned on Wednesday, and a
part of the library of the minister, Mr.. Pitcher,
was destroyed.

Bonner on Bergh.

Mr. Bergh imprudently wrote letter for the
press condemning clipping, the check rein and the
speeding of horses. Commercial AdCertiser
man hunted up Mr. Robert Bonner with a copy
of the wild letter in his hand, and the proprietor
of the Ledger quickly and logically answered all
OF the objections of the president OF the society
for the prevention of cruelty to animals. Here
is sample extract from the interview:
"a horse, il be is not a lazy beast, takes much
interest in his own performances. II you are
driving three minute horse and q 2:4O animal
comes up alongside to pass you, you will notice
your horse prick up his ears and stretch his neck
out in an endesvor TO keep ahead. That is am
bition. There is no doubt that horses take great
interest in their races, and frequently has horse
been seen TO reach out near the finish, when it
found that il could not pass a competitor and try
to fix its teeth into il 10 hold IL back II is as
natural for the horse to run and trot il is for
the bird to fly aud the OK to walk. Turn horse
loose in a field and he don't stand still and lie
down, does he: He scampers all over It; and in
two minutes exerts himself much more than in
making fast mile. 1t doesn't hurt a fast horse
any more TO make 2:15 than q slower horse three
minutes. No sensible man. assuredly no horse
nan, gives his horse more than he can do.
Take Maud 5. for instance. Every one
knows that she is one gentlest creatures and
does her performances without the whip or rrg-
ing. She had been driven for six weeks, except
q jog by Mr. Vanderbilt and q couple of easy
turns by myself. Last week Bair put her in
training again. He did not push her, Of course.
That would be dangerous for any animal. Every
one knows that neither man nor beast should be
put TO exertion suddenly. Well, the first day
the mare trotted mile in s:44, and another in
s:2S. Two days later she did mile in s:37 and
another in 2 :25, aud on Friday mile In 2:31,
and another in s:s5t., and q third in 2:i4A.
When Bair drove up he said that he could easily
have made fast mile with Maud s. but he
thought best to do il easily. Mr.. Hubbard, of
the Hartford CoUrGst, was with me and wit
messed her performance. She was not distressed
after her trot. She can do her :O9A in eompar-
alive comfort and 1t is not cruel to put her it..
Do you suppose horses would exert themselves
to get up speed il il was not pleasure to thent
Why, Dexter, Rarus and Maud 5. don't want to
stop at ali when once they have started. They
get their blood up and wish to keep on"
Then you don't think that Mr.. Bergh will
ever succeed in stopping running, trotting and
racing in this countrys'i

If there is anything that enthuses an old vet
Gran 1t is TO meet brother soldiers and talk of
the times experienced twenty years ago fighting
for the preservation of the Union. He would
rather miss anything than TO fail to attend a
gathering of his old comrades who stood side by
side with him at Bull Run, Shiloh, Gettysburg,
or in the Wilderness, and who he only meets but
twice in as many years. He will greet his old
friends with cordial grasp of the hand, and
then the discourse will drift to the time when
they were under the command of ''Little Mac, ~
"Little Phil, F" Pap Thomas, some other gal
liant leader Of the Union forces. Such were the
persons that attended the camp fire at Eagle lake
on Friday.
The Alex. Wilkin post, G.. A. R., OF Mankato,
with their drum corps, the Durkee post of Eagle
with their drum corps, and the post from James
vile and Waseca were in attic ndanee and marched
to Caseweu grove, where the festivities were
held. This is one OF the finest and most pictur-
esque groves in the county, and for such gath
ering no better selection would have been posi-
bic.
The music both vocal and instrumental was
good, and the old war songs and tunes made the
soldier think Of 1861, when he shouldered his
musket and off to the war he went. The address
OF welcome OF Horace Cummens, OF Eagle Lake.
was excellent and well received by his auditors.
The address by Gen. j. II. Baker, X. r. COM
missioner, listed about forty minutes and he
was frequently interrupted by loud applause.
The dinner served by the Darkee Post was ex-
ceptionaly good and received many commenda-
tons by the hungry soldiers. Between the diff
ferent exercises different selections of music
played and without exception every selection
was admirably rendered. After dinner
Judge VI. j. Severance Of Msnkato, made one of
his charicterictic addresses full Of energy and
vim and all who heard It pronounced it excellent.
A number of other short speeches OF interest
were listened to and strict attention paid to all
| that was said.
At about this juncture some Of the old soldiers
discovered hornets nest, took il to the stand,
and uncorked it, and the next scene was that Of
the persons fleeing in all directions. and making
expressions more forcibie than elegant. The ex-
| ercises closed amid music and as the embers Of
the camp fire died away the old veterans left for
their respective homes well pleased with the
hOspitable and gorgeous manner in which they
had been entertained by the Durkee Post and the
citizens OF Eagle Lake.

Phallas and Mareu Cobb.

The indications now are that these two cele-
brated stations will come together within few
weeks. Maxey Cobb is the son of Happy Medium
and made record OF 2:15 at Hartford This
beat Smuggler's record by quarter of second,
which stood for many years unequaled.
On the other hand, Phalas, the
son of Dictator, cut the record down to 2:13K at
Chicago in July last, Mr.. Isdor Cohnfeld has
very great confidence in Maxey Cobb, and be-
lieyes him to be faster than Phallas. BE there
fore cent the following communication dated
Sept. II, to the Turf, Field aud Farm:
EDITORS TURF, FIELD AND FARM: In your
issue OF last week you have an article rsferring
to Maxey Cobb, closing with the suggestion to
bring Maxey and Phallas together in a race. /
did not see the article in question until il was
brought to my notice at Providence, My opinion
of your suggestion is that it was happy thought,
and am perfectly willing to have Maxey meet
PhallaS either at Providence or Hartford, say
within two weeks from now, to trot a race for
$1,000, being $4,000 a side, particulars to be
settled hereafter. / also take this opportunity to
slate that Maxey is not intended by me, as the
them may go, to trot races. think too much of
him a road horse, and will not deprive myself
of the pleasure of driving him for the gain 1
might find in trotting races. What / have done
with him SO far this season has been done solely
to show his qualities. hold that stallion
ought to be shown up. must know soon if the
match Is accepted Oy Mr.. case, rs Otherwise L
have plans for my horse that brook no delay.
Very respectfully yours,
IsIDoR CoHNFELD.
The substance of the above was sent to Mr..
Case, the owner of Phalas, and he replied that
he had engagements for four weeks for Jay Eye
See and Phailas, but after those engagements
were filed he would accommodate Maxey Cobb.
Subsequently Jay Eye See was indisposed and his
engagements were cancelled. Mr.. Case was then
swered that the condition of Jay Eye See was
such that be could not then give decision as to
the time of the race. When the telegram from
man remarked that he had made what he con-
sidered o fair proposition, and as it virtually had
been declined he had nothing more 10 say, ex-
cept that il the owner of Phallas wanted q race
the challenge must now come from him.
w. Ii. Crawford, manager of Mr. Cases horses,
has forwarded the following proposition to New
York, together with draft for 81, 500, payable
to Hamilton Busby, of the Turf, Field and
Farm:
DEAR SIR Mr. Case win match Phallas
against any stallion (Maxey Cobb preferred), two
races, for a mile and two mile heats, best three
in five, for $500 S., 900 side halt forfeit, to
be trotted in October, any track that may
be mutually agreed upon or decided by lot, and
the money added by the track to go to the win
ner Enclosed please find forfeit.
(Signed) w. Ii. CRAwFoRD"
The above is not precisely challenge, but it
substantially amounts to the same thing, and
will probably be accepted provided Mr.. Cohnfeld
has no objection to two races one Of which is to
be two mile heats.
