AnInsane MANS Freak.

WELLINGTON, KS, Sept. 13-This city was
thrown into the widest excitement this forenoon
by the sudden appearance on the streets of
Frank Jones, armed with Winchester rifle and
firing into the residences Of various citizens.
He first went to the residence OF Jno. l. Ander.
son, fired several shots into the house, and then
repaired to the house Of j. NJ. Mckee, through
which he fired twelve shots smashing the furni-
ture and woundng small child. An alarm was
quickly raised and in few minutes the citizens
were in arms. Jones was mounted on q pony,
and while gallopIng up Washington avenue shot
VIM. Gaines, street commissioner, inilicting u
very dangerous wound and Jones then rode to
the house OF his brother, Sylvester Jones, and
discharged several shots into it, but the family
had escaped to the neighbors. lie then fled tc
the country, but was pursued and captured
about mile from town. About week ago,
Jones was brought before the jury to have his
sanity passed upon. Since then he has threat
ened the lives of all who testified against him,
and to-day was endeayoring to carry his threat
into execution. Public opinion seems divided
as TO his insanity he is now in Jail, and there
are great fears of his being lynched.

Parties who have just arrived from the upper
waters of the st. Croix report seeing much dam
age by the rains. The floods have taken all the
hay on the Chibbonazee, Bean brook and Frog
creek, and swept them down. They also report
seeing much damage that had been done by the
storm along the Northern Wisconsin. Pine trees
were leveled houses blown down, barns un-
rooted and grain scattered to the winds The
storm appeared to be narrow, and in the centre
of its course everything was leveled, the trees
being uprooted.

The weather for the closing day of the fair
could not be excelled. At an early hour the
different exhibits began to be removed, but it
was not until afternoon that the great bulk of
them were got down. In the floral hall the veg
etables were first removed. as they had been
sold to our merchants in the city, and will sat
isfy the appetites of their customers. The ex-
hibits by the ladies were the last to be moved,
and the beautiful articles contrasted very favor
ably with their surroundings. There were sew
eral sales made of the handsome flowers exhib-
tied by Mr.. A. D. Roe, of the Twin Lakes nur-
sery, and such exhibits as he made tend much
to encourage people to try their skill in raising
flowers, His exhibit was an extensive one, and
we.are surprised that among so many who in
this city have handsome collections, he had al
most no competition When people are afraid
of the trouble to bring articles to a fair, they
should not complain of any department being
apparently failure. Such wcs the case with
most of the departments, ardwe trust that next
year the citizens, and especially the ladies' will
awake to the advantage of making large dis
play of fancy and otner articles The tock and
other things have gone, and the Washington
County lair, that opened with such dismal
weather, that prevented the arrival of much that
was entered for competition, has closed with the
most beautiful weather, and the visitors have
been catered to as well as any officers and direc-
tors could do. The races were more interesting
than ever held in the state as better time has
been made. Financially it has been a success.
Thanks are due to those who have worked so
faithfully for the success of the fair, and in a
special manner of N. McKusick, the secretary,
and DANES B. Sturtevant, the treasurer, the lat
ter especially doing duty day and night, and
working to achieve the deserved success. The
president, Mr.. Fowler also, with the other
officers, were at their post and doing all they
could in giving information to all inquirers.

authors of the monthly payment system IN st.

week to keep us busy, They have no iron clad
terms, but sell TO every man in such way that
he can get n home. Other dealers have had to
follow our example, and hence the city just
booms with the bee hive industry of the builders,
