A War OF Races.

Last Sunday jim Wright, rancher
on the East Walker, had some trouble
with Piute about the amount to be
paid for threshing quantity OF grain.
After the dispute was settled, he
ordered the Indian to keep out Of his
house The Indian, however. insisted
on going inside, when Wright got
down his gun and told him to keep
out. The Indian still persisted on
entering the house and Wright, not
wishing to kill him, dubbed the gun
and knocked the intruder down. He
struck II powerful blow, but instead Of
breaking the Indians head, it broke
the gun. Wright then threw aside the
gun barrel and grappled with his
adversary, and would have won the
fight had not two squaws come 10 the
assistance of the head of their family.
One of the squaws seized the butt of
the gun and hammered Wright over
the head, which made il evident to him
that he was at disadvantage. Wright,
seeing the odds against him, ran fol
the axe, but the Indians had posses.
sion of that also aud were masters Of
the situation, They, however became
alarmed on seeing so much blood on
Wright's person, and probably think
ing he was morlaly wounded, hurried
OIL and at last accounts had not been
heard of. Wrights iauries were not
serious and he is now up and around
looking for his gun barrel and axe,
which the Indians carried oft.

Fancy Prices for HERES.

TOT Tue information OF our local
sports and horse lovers the following
is condensed from the New York
Herald's interview with Robert Bon.
ner:
Mr.. Bonner told of various pur.
chaseS which he made thereafter,
including Lantern, Peerless and Lady
Palmer and POcahontas, for which he
paid $35 900 cash.
"Of Pocahontas," continued Mr..
Bonner, "old man Vanderbilt said to
me as we stood together, Bonner, il is
worth 800 day jus, to look at that
animal and 80 it was"
When was il you became the owner
Of Dexter?"
"Dextery Let me see. In 1867 a
Cincinnati man told me he had a fast
mare which he desired to sell. |
looked at her, and concluded not to
take her, but said: A friend Of
yours, Mr.. Foster, has a horse | want
TO buy, and for which am willing to
pay $4,000, provided he wipes out
Flora Temples time"
"Wcll,'" said the man, "'if can
get him for $33 900 will you give me
the other 81 .000y'"
Il agreed, of course, and in a few
days he purchased Dexter IN my name,
paving 81 900 down to bind the bar
gain, the horse to be delivered to me
in the Fail. AT that time he had made
mile in 2:174 on the Buffalo track,
and his owner hesitated about having
my name mentioned in connection
with the purchase, fearing that some
one would poison the horse, and he
would thereby lose the remainder Of
the money. | told him 10 deliver the
horse to me, dead or alive, on his feet
or the simple carcass, on the 10Th day
of September, and | would give him
the $32 600 balance. That satisfied
him, and the nexl day sent II telegram
TO Budd Doble, which was read on the
grand stand on the Buffalo track, as
follows:
~ saw Niagara Falls this morning
for the first time, and | came down
here this afternoon to see the other
wonder of the world (Dcxter) do his
mile in 2:l71. | desire, rs is well
known, 10 gel the best of everything,
and, as | could not buy the falls,
bought the next best thing, which is
Dexter. who will go into nay stables on
the 10th of next month.
What Others did you buy about
thai tmes"
u paid $4,000 for Joe Elliot, who
did mile in 2:151s, and 100000 for
Edward Everett, the sire of Mountain
Boy, and $4,000 for ,Startler, and
$4,000 for Edwin Forrest the day that
he made n mile in 2:154 to a wagon,
and $15 900 for Lady Stout, the first
three year.old who ever made mile
in 2:29, and many others as the
writers say, too numerous to men.

"You speak of Rarus with a great
deal Of apparent pride. Why did you
buy iiim?"
81 bought Rarus in 1879, paying
$4,000 for him, he having made a
mile in 2:131l About that time st.
Julien was brought to me, hi having
made mile in 2:114. didn't buy
him, and some people have wondered
why I didn't The fact is the horse
was lame"
The price paid for Maud s., his most
recent purchase, was $4,000, which he
considers very cheap.

A plate of SOLID GOLD IA 2-l0 karats
fine is soldered on each side of plate of
hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this plate the various
parts fthe cases-backs, centers, bezels, etc.
are cut and shaped by dies and formers.
The gold is thick enough to admit of all
kinds of chasing, engraving, and engine
turning. The composition metal gives it
needed strength, stiffness and solidity, while
the written guarantee of the manufacturers
uarrdnting each case to wear twenty years
proves that it contains oil the gold that
can possibly be needed. This guarantee
is given from actual results, as many of
these cases have been worn perfectly smooth
by years of use without wearing through
the gold. DUBUQUE L, Dec. a. 1880

Despair Not.

Did you ever have period in your life
when you felt as if no one wanted you ?
l had that experience for about two days,
and it nearly broke my heart. wanted
TO die. 1t was terrible thought that no
one wanted me. l was a stranger in
strange city looking for work. l went
from place to place, and got only gruff
answer: "No, sir )" "No, SIR" No one
wanted me. 1t seems as if the Son of
God must have had something of that
feeling down here; no one wanted him.
The world did not want him ; it took him
and put him to death. If he should come
into this audience, and go from seat to
seat, would you say, "No, Jesus, l do not
want YOU 60 thy way this time ?" or
would you open your heart and let him
in -? In one place it speaks of his locks
wet with the dews of the night. o, may
God help every unsaved soul here to re-
ceive the Son of God He has gone up
on high to make room there for us. We
are told in one place that he looked tc-
ward heaven and sighed. He saw sick
ness and disease and death all around
him, and no one wanted him, so he looked
toward home. l can imagine he was
homesick. There he was loved by all. o
sinner, won't you have this rejected King?
Won't you do as Martha and Mary did
receive him into your heart and home this
very hour 2-Moody.
