G. A. Kurtz, who is the proprietor
eff leather house in that city. and
and salesman of J. Mullen, whole
sale boot and shoe dealer, became
insane whilst in this city on We'd
nesday. After performing many
strange freaks here, he travelled out
in the grove northeast of the city,
where he was overtaken and secured
by deputy sheriff Healey on Thurs
day morning. Word in regard to
the unfortunate man was immedl-
ately telgraphed to friends in Chi
cage.
1t is gratifying to the thousands
of Wisconsin people who have
friends in Dakota to know that the
prospects are good for an abundant
harvest there. Editor Rindlaub,
who recently visited that territory
says: During our recent trip into
Dakota we went as far as High
more, on the C. & N. w. R. R. The
crops along the entire line look
splendidly. Corn, Wheat and Oats
look well and are as far advanced in
Dakota as in Wisconsin. The pros
poets for an abundant harvest never
were better.
In answer to a correspondent
who asked, "When is the best time
to pillow sod on which to plant corn,
SO that the cut worms will not de-
stroy the CROP" the Western Ru-
raj, and Stockman, replies that it is
best to pillow in the fall. This view
of fall blowing is confirmed by the
testimony of many farmers in this
section. Daniel Dornan, of VALID
wick, recently informed US that this
season, corn which he planted on
spring blowing was badly damaged
blythe cut worm, whilst corn just
along side of it, planted on fall plow-
ing was uniniured. He is decidedly
in favor Of fall blowing.
On Sunday last John Thompson
of Linden, whilst turning horse
out of his barn met with a very
serious accident. The horse turning
suddenly from him kicked out with
its hind feet striking Mr.. Thomp-
son on the side of the bowels. DR..
Vivian, who was in Linden at the
time, was called to attend him. 1t
was impossible to judge of the ex-
tent of the injury. DR.. Vivian
again visited him on Monday and
found him quite comfortable, with
chances very favorable for his re-
covery. 1t was certainly a very
close call, but it is to be hoped that
no permanent injury will result from
the accident.

How Watch Cases are Made.

In buying silver watch case great care
should be taken to secure one that is solid
silver throughout. The cap of most cheap
silver cases is made Of composition known
as albata, which is very poor substitute
for silver, as it turns black in short time.
The backs of such cases are made much
thinner than those of an all silver case,
being robbed in order to make the cap
thicker and get in as much as possible OF
the cheap metal. Another important point
inasilver case is the joints or hinges, which
should be made of gold. Those of most
cheap cases are made of silver, which is
not suitable metal for that purpose. In
brief period it warps, bends and spreads
apart, allowing the backs to become loose
upon the case and admitting the dust and
dirt that accumulate in the pocket The
Keystone SilverWatch Gases are only made
with silver caps and gold joints.

A Few Prices from Del!er's
s. w. Wis. |. 4.
Our local exchanges make kindly
mention of our coming fair.
The GaIena GaZettee saws:

1t promises to excel all previous fars held
there, and from their premium list which we
shall publish in a couple of weeks, the premiums
are larger in many departments, and smaller in
10 one, than any fairs in this vicinity. A fine
field of horses are entered for the races which
will be of considerable interest
And the Dodgeville Star gives the
following as the result of its inves-
legations:
Not only the list of premiums, but premiums
themselves have been largely increased for the
coming fair, and should warrant a complete
exhibit by all classes of industries. The racing
department has been greatly improved both in
the size and number of purses, and under the
able management of the officers, the fair prom
Uses to be one of great attraction and interest.
The Chronicle notices that the
officers are putting forth the neces-
sary efforts to make the fair sue
cess, and says:
The offers of this association are displaying
their usual energy in making preparations for
the fair, and with the aid of the past experience
will doubtless be able to make il surpaSs any
OF the very crsditable exhibitions the associa-
zion has heretofore help.
The Sun notices the increase of
premiums as follows:
CHANGING over the list we notice an increase
in several of the premiums, while the rest are
fully up to the standard OF last year. This aSSo-
citation is well known throughout the county as
deserving of liberal patronage, which We hope
1t will receive.
The Platteville Witness appreciates
the merits of our fairs, and remarks:
The people of Mineral Point take great deal
of interest in these annual exhibitions and 8
result they have one of the best fairs in South
western Wisconsin.
The Darlington Democrat makes
note as follows of the movements
that are being made in regard to
the fair:
The meeting is to be held on September ID. Sd,
4th, and 5lh and great preparations are being
made to have this the greatest exhibit ever seen
in this part of the state As the Pointers gener-
ally succeed in what they undertake, look out
for . grand time. We expect TO give particulars
from time to time to our readers.
