The Black Hawk War.

The sturdy pioneers who occupied
Northern Illinois and Southern Wis
consin for civilization sixty years ago,
often had the monotony of frontier
life broken by conflicts with Indians.
The last struggle of any Importance
in this section occurred in 1882, and is
known to history as the Black Hawk
War, the moving spirit of the savage
outbreak being the noted Black Hawk,
chief of the Sacs and Foxes. Gen.
Henry Dodge, afterwards senator from
Wisconsin, was the leader in the hot
pursuit which finally brought Black
Hawk, with his warriors, women, and
children, to bay near the mouth of
the Bad Axe river, on the east bank
OF the Mississippi, in what is now
Vernon county, Wisconsin. The sun
of that second day of August, 1882, set
upon bloody field, and the result
was the death of nearly all the braves,
and the abrupt close of the campaign.
The chief himself escaped, and died
years after at his home near Rock
Island, Illinois. The locality of the
battle is now marked by the village
of Victory, so named from this en-
gagement, situated on and reached
only by the Chicago, Burlington &
Northern r. r., the "Scenic line, .
which touches most of the historic
spots IN the upper Mississippi Valley.

FIRE AT MAPLETON.

Our Mapleton correspondent fur
nishes the following particulars of a
fire which took place there last night.
About 1870 o'clock the horse barn of
DR.. VIM. Little was discovered to be
on fire, but with the aid Of the engine
company the fire was prevented from
spreading, but the barn and contents
were destroyed The doctor was away
from home and his mother had gone
to the barn, hung up the lantern and
was watering the horse, when in some
unaccountable manner the blaze from
the lantern ignited the hay and
hence the destruction. 1t was fortu-
nate for Mapleton that the barn was
in the northwest corner Of the town
for there was heavy southeast wind
blowing at the time.
