| captured. Thursday, at about the hour of
noon, formidable.looking steamer was seen
| coming up the river, porentously plOwing the
muddy waters with threatening PROV. She

manded by Maj. Mackenzie and Capt. Dur
| ham, of Rock Island. AT first attention
! was paid to the summons to surrender and
| resistance was the one thought. but one

about a speedy capitulatiOn. They were
irresistible. The names of the CON

| Mackenzie, Miss Edison, Miss Skinner and

and Miss Playful, of Omaha, and Miss Dwight

up and down until White Bear also surrend-
dered. Some of the gentlemen who have tried

W. j. Driscoll, Burns and w. j. Pierce. Of
