FOUND, BUT DEAD.
The Body Of Frederick spetmsn Re-
covered from the River.

For several days the many friends Of
Frederick Spetman, a well-to-do farme r
of Mills county, have been In anxious
suspense over his sudden and mysterious
disappearance. His description had bee n
scattered over the country, and q reward
offered for the recovery of the body, 1t
being supposed that he had either fallen
Into the river by accident, or else foully
murdered. Yesterday morning f. w.
Spetman & Bro, of this city, received q
telegram from Claude Watson, coroner OF
Otoe county, Neb., and dated at Ne
brasks City. September 81, saying:
"Msn found In river here tonight, an
swsrlng description of Frederick
Spetman. Come or telegraph
at once" On receipt of this
Mr.. Hoist, of Hoist g. Spetman, and Mr..
f. w. Spetman, at once started for Ne
braska City, accompanied by Mr.. Charles
Keith, the general agent of the 60"
Later In the day other kilograms were re.
ceived stating that the body was surely
that of Mr.. Spetman, and that arrange
ments had been made for bringing him
home on the evening train, the train to
be stopped between Hinton and Island
Park, at q spot about forty rods from the
home of the unfortunate man, whence
he could easily be taken. The kilograms
received during the day were chiefly
about the arrangements In regard to get
ting the body home, and contained no in.
formation as to the details of his death.
The c%oroner's Inquest threw no light
upon the mystery of the death. There
were no marks of violence ON the body,
but the absence of the money which the
deceased had when he left home, arouses
suspicion of foul play.

feared for her life. He at one time
stabbed her with a knife In one of his
frenzled spells. She left him, and came
to this country, but he followed her to

land of freedom she wants to secure
freedom indeed.

FEARFUL MINE EXPLOSION.

Over a Hundeed Lives Lost BY an Expio-
sion OF Fire Damp In an English Colliery.
MANCHESTER, June 18.-A terrible ex-
plosion of fire damp occurred this morn
ing at Clifton Hall Colliery near this city.
There were $50 men in the mine at the
time, I20 of whom have been rescued.
Two hundred and thirty are entombed and
it is feared they will be either sufocated
or burned to death, if indeed they
are not already dead. Great excitement
prevails, and the scenes in the vicinity OF
the mine are heartrending in the extreme.
Wives mothers and other relatives and
friends are congregated near the en-
frances, crying, shrieking and implorlng
God to save their loved ones imprisoned
below.
MANCHESTER, June 1s.-The cages
used by the exploring parties got stuck
in the descending shaft and delayed them
fully two hours. They have not yet sue
ceeded in reaching the imprisoned min
ers. The rescued men say that at the
time of the explosion they rushed to the
bottom of the main shaft, and barely got
there with their lives. They are ignorant
of the fate of those left behind.
LONDON, June IA dispatch received
late yesterday afternoon from Manches
ter says that up to $3.50 p. m. 100 addi
tional miners had been rescued from the
colliery, or about 250 in all. Fighter
dead bodies had been taken out. 1t was
| thought that at least 100 men were SUI
in the mine, and probably all OF then

report concerning the prospects Tor
the growing crop of oats which, next to
corn, is entitled to precedence in extent
of yield and the value of the prod uct.
The annual production of oats in Illinois
OF late years has exceeded 100000, Ooo
bushels. The area of oats is much larger
than last season and the prospects are
favorable for nearly an average yield per
acre. The oats crop of the State IN 1884
was los, ,3l4, ,l58 bushels. Returns 1oI

the same as last year on the northern
