Juneau.

The sad news was received here on
Sunday afternoon of the death at Du-
luth, Mimi, of Samuel Veltum, Jr., the
youngest son of Mr.. and Mrs Samuel
Veltum, formerly of this place, now OF
st. James, Mimi. The deceased, a
young man of more than usual promise,
% years old, was born and brought up
here, and here first entered the service
of the American Express Co.; he was
afterwards transferred to Racine and
about year ago from there to Duluth
A young man of fine abilities, excellent
moral character and with every pros
pect of a bright future before him, his
death will be deeply regretted by all
who knew him. The remains were
brought here for burial.
Most of the machinery for the furni-
ture factory has been purchased and
has been, or will be shortly put in posi-
ton. Workmen have commenced plac-
ing the pipes for the steam heating the
contract for the same having been let

by all strangers that Juneau has the
neatest, cleanest and most commodious
postoffice of any town of its size in the
state and can even beat several larger

Patti at Chicago,

The scene when the great Patti was
introduced to the vast audience at the
opening of the Auditorium at Chicago,
Monday night, is thus described:
Applause, first low and murmuring,
but deepening into the thunder's roar,
now marked the epoch of the evening.
Descending the steps from the right,
escorted by Manager Adams, was Ma
dame Patti, who advanced smilingly
but almost timidly to the front as the
orchestra struck up triumphant well
come. In tones that had lost none of
their sweetness or power, the world
famed cantatrice warbled in touching
cadence the familiar melody of Home,
Sweet Home"
The expected encore followed from
the delighted audience and Nine. Patti
responded with Hunters Chorus, I"
which afforded wonderful evidence of
the power and nexibility of her marvel
GUS voice. Repeated attempts were
made to elicit another song, but she
responded by smiling bow of acknowl-
edgment and retired to her apart

jeff Davis in Wisconsin.

The death of Jeff Davis calls to mind
the fact that portion of his early life
was spent in Wisconsin. There are
number Of people at Prairie du CHEN
who remember Jefferson Davis when
he was lieutenant stationed at old
Fort Crawford, and when he ran away
with and married the pretty daughter
of Col. Zach. Taylor, his superior officer
Davis was stationed at Fort Howard,
near Green Bay, and there had trouble
with a brother officer that resulted in
his transfer to Fort Crawford. He was
slender, smooth-faced young man
naughty in manner and aristocratic in
appearances true Southerner. He
and Miss Taylor were in love, but the
young lady's father would not consent
to their marriage, and SO they slipped
away early one morning, and with the
assistance Of friend found minister
and were married. COL Taylor stub
bornly refused to forgive the young
people, and it was not until after stub
bornly-contested battle on Mexican
soil, wherein young Davis displayed
marked heroism and was wounded,
that the old warrior grasped bis son-in-
laws hand and gave tia fatherly shake.
The late William M Dennis used to re-
late the circumstance of meeting Jeff
Davis here while on his way from Fort
Winnebago to Green Bay.
