SHEIBYvILLE, LII, August 23.-Some
months since Elder II. Z. Puette. pastor Of
the Christian Church of this city, was
prompted to step down and out from the
pulpit and church fellowship, charges Sc
riouslv affecting his character as man and
minister having been preferred by members
of his congregation. The sensation has
been revived by the results of an investiga-
ton Just completed by the Masonic order, of
which the brother is member. The result
of the investigation is to fully exOnorate
Mr.. Puette from the charges. The Church
Committee who first investigated the matter
and brought in verdict of guilty reiterate
the charges, and public sentiment is divided

and back. the face, the chest and extrem-
tiles being all that was left untouched. The
flesh had been carefully removed to the
very bones. The marks Of the sharp knife
were plainly visible. The eyes were de-
cayed, the face covered with shaggy red
whiskers and the head with darkish red
hair. Over the skull was close fitting

over which was a seal skin cap with
ears and tied under the chin. There were
wooden bandages about the wrists and
ankles, and considerable gravel upon the

of hair and messy stuff. No marks of viO-
lence or disease were apparent The seal

Cattle Companies IN Nebraska and CoIora-
do Charged With Illegally Fencing Pub
lie Lands.
WASHINGTON, August 25.-Some time
since the Commissioner of the General Land
Office ordered a survey OF certain public
lands in Colorado and Nebraska
with view of bringing suits at the
next term of Court against cattle COM
panies that nave Illegally fenced in large
tracts of lands in these States. \ special
agent who has been experimenting TIE
survey in Colorado in his report TO the
Commissioner says eight cases have been
found against the Prairie Cattle Company,
composed of ScOtchmen. An eXami-
nation has been made of tracts
containing respectively one hundred
square miles, twenty-five square miles,
sixteen square miles and seventeen square
miles, and the agent is at present eXamin-
ing a tract containing over one hundred
square miles. All of these are under con-
tYol of the Prairie Cattle Company, and the
agent says are Illegally fenced in. The Off
cialS i'll the land Office say the practice OF IL
legally fencing large tracts of lana and max
ing fraudulent entries has been greater the
past wear than ever before. They claim
that between five and six millions OF acres
are now Illegally fenced and that several
million of acres are frauduIently entered.
Complaints from the settlers are being re-
ceived daily by agents and at
land offices here. The settlers say cattle
men are driving them away and TAX
ing from them lands which they have SET
tied upon. One of the land office officials
said if the practice is continued. cattle
men will have entire control of the
best public lands in the United States
within twenty years. Relative to
fraudulent entries of land. the land
ageEi in New Mexico informs the General
Land Commissioner that of the entries in
that Territory ninety per cent are fraudu-
lent. and another agent in Kansas, writing
upon the same subject, says that seventy
five per cent OF the entries are fraudulent in
that Territory.
