The new road leading from August

The new road leading from August
Schell's place to New Ulm Is now near
u completed. 1t only remains for the
bridge to be finished and the road will
be ready for travel, which will be in a
few days. It is one Of the finest high
ways in this vicinity
On Monday evening Of last week,
while Justice Westphal was going
towards his home he was set upon by a
ferocious dog and severely bitten. He
was passing the corner of Third and
Broadway, when the dog rushed out
from under a wagon, sprung at Mr..
Westphal and bit him several times in
the right arm. The gashes are ugly
and painful ones and will cause great
deal of inconvenience. The owners of
such dogs as this should be made to
lock them up, so that passers by will
not have to run the risks of being all
cut up and bruised.
Mr.. Kuetzing returned last week from
Dakota and Nebraska where he has been
visiting for the past three weeks. He
speaks of himself as surprised with the
portions of Dakota that he visited and
says they are in marked contrast to all
his former ideas of that country. He
spent most Of his time at Deadwood
and vicinity and says the towns are
clean, modern in their style, and far
different from what is usually expected
{ Of those western mining districts. The
people are refined, orderly, and have at
tanned degree Of responsibility that
would cast shadow on many an east
ern town. The industries of course are
all mining and are extensive. At
Homestake mine, miles from Dead
wood, 100000 is the amount paid out
monthly for lapor and from five mines
as much as $3.50, 900 in gold was taken
IN a single week. It is rich country
and as it borders on the Sioux reserva-
ton, soon to be openedfor settlement, it
is very apt to receive substantial boom.
a visit thither, Mr.. Kuetzing says, is in.
structive and interesting.

The FOrgetful FOgg.

Fogg entered the car, to find every
seat occupied and the aisle filled
with ISLANDERS. But he was equal to
the occasion. He shouted, with the
voice of one having authority, "Plenty
of seats in the next car" Instantly
there was a rush for the next car.
The standing passengers started first,
of course, but there were lots of the
sitters who wanted to sit together and
several more who thought by going
into the other car they might get two
or three seats to themselves. The re-
suit was that Fogg selected one of the
vacated seats and was deep in his news
paper by the time the crowd came
pouring back, with an evident desire
to shed Fogg's blood. You see, ii
was ali oversight on Fogg's part.
There were plenty of seats in the next
car; he merely forgot to mention that
they were all full.-Boston Transcript.

Adventure With a Bear I'm Hungary.

A thrilling adventure with bear
occurred few days ago at Wallen-
dorf, in Hungary. The following is
the account given by Advocate Forster,
who, as will be seen, narrowly escaped
with his life: 81 went with a party
of friends to the neighboring noun
tains to shoot roe-deer. There were
plenty of them, only the dogs bounded
them away to the valley beyond. |
consequently changed my place and
took my stand at spot which knew
to be favorable. Presently heard the
dogs coming, but fancied from their
bark that they were chasing boar.
quickly withdrew my shot cartridges
and put in bullets, but what was my
surprise to see a huge bear trotting
quietly toward me, apparently regard
less of the dogs. When within seventy
PAGES l fired and saw him fall, but
nevertheless 1 thought it prudent to
give him second bullet, which like
wise took effect.
l afterward proceeded to hillock
close by and called my companions,
but hardly had | raised my voice ere
the bear got up and made straight for
me. l had just time to reload and
fire when he was within five PAGES of
me. 1t did not quite finish him off, for
he fell upon me with terrible howl
and knocked me heavily to the ground.
| managed to push the barrels of my
gun into his open jaws and fired a
second shot. Luckily, also, two dogs
came up and seized him from behind.
In a last effort he caught my foot be-
tween his teeth, and had enough
strength left to bite through my high
boots and slightly wound my ankle.
When my friends came up they were
greatly alarmed to see me covered with
blood, but fortunately it was that of
my shaggy victim, not my own.

DEATH Of JEFF DAVIS
He Passes Away Early Friday
Morning.

NEW ORLEANS, La, Dec. 6, 1889. Jeffer-
son Davis died at l2.45 O'Clock this morning,
at the residence of his lifelong friend, Mr. }.
U. Payne, where he had been sick since his
arrival in this city, Nov. Il. He was taken
i'll on the steamer with a severe cold during
his trip down the Mississippi from Brierfieid,
and was at once conveyed TO MIR. Payne's
residence. His condition became extremely
critical. His weakness was so great that he
was unable to turn over in bed or lift an arm.
His only food was beef tea. Fever was very
high, and he was attacked by failing of the
stomach. In fact. there was general break
ing down, probably due to his advanced age
He never recovered from his trip down the
river. Many friends have visited him at his
bedside during this sickness. Conflicting re-
ports have been sent out from time TO time
regarding his condition, but his death has
been generally expected.

PROBABLY IN CANADA.
The Cashier of the Sergeant-at-Arms a De
familiar.


Edward Silcott, cashier of sergeant-at-arms
of the House of Representatives, is default
er. Ninety-three thousand dollars is the
amount Sergeant-at-arms Leedom says which
c. E. SilcOtt, his cashier, took away In his
inside pocket on Saturday last. He took a
notorious woman with him, too, and he left
a wife, children and grandchildren without a
cent. but what a son of twenty-five can earn
as helper in the House document room.
His friends are shocked, his family pros
trated.
Seventy-two thousand dollars, LeedOm
says, Is the total amount of government
money which he took, and this will all be
made good by Leedom and his bondsmen,
the latter being held for $4,000, and Lee
dom holding Silcott's bondsmen responsible
for their bond of $4,000. All the bondsmen
on both bonds are good. OF the remainder
of the $4,000, $4,000 belongs to Leedom
personally, and the rest belonged to members
of the House. The woman who went with
Silcott Is the cause of it all. He kept his
family and his personal expenses well within
his salary of S2500, but he found $4,000
necessary when he left for Canada. Lee
dom, a man of character and great respecta-
biity, is completely unnerved by the shock,
coming just at the close of his successful adj
ministration of his office.

DOM PEDRO GAVE UP TO FATE.
Foresaw Revolution and Thinks the Repub-
lie Firmly Established.

Brazilian royalists in Lisbon state that
Dom Pedro is much opposed to the PROPOSE
tons made in the United States looking to
the organization of an American commercial
Zollverein. He bases his objections on the
fact that Brazil is chiefly an agricultural
country, not yet much advanced in manu-
featuring interests, and that it is in need of
European capital, immigrants and markets,
and cannot deprive itself of these by joining
in an exclusively American combination.
Dom Pedro, it is said, foresaw the recent
revolution, but declined to consent to any
efforts at repression. He will himself be the
greatest obstacle to any activity on the part
of his partisans. Dom Pedro telegraphed
from the island of st. Vincent to Count Cas-
rrt, the husband of his niece, that he will re-
main in Lisbon Il fortnight, and will then
proceed to Cannes, where friend has
offered him the use of his villa. Dom Pedro
is reported as having said at Vincent that
any attempt to restore the monarchy in Bra
I'll would only tend to blOodshed, and that he
is convinced the republic is firmly established.
