4 PRETTY PIECE OF WoRK.-Mr
YIN, Chauncey, ir,, has just finished a
unique mantelpiece in the front room
of his house, on lower Fairfax street,
which is to be seen TO be appreciated.
1t is composed of several thousand
pieces of broken china and crockery
ware, no piece being more than an inch
and half square, and two bushels of
such fragments were used in the work.
They have been so artistically placed
together that they fopm 2 beautiful
mosaic. The work begins from the

complish this singular veneering, which
is monument TO skill, taste and pa
tiepce.

DEATH or A YOUNG LADY.-Miss
Susie May, youngest daughter of Dr.
William Gibson, died at one o'clock
this morning, after an illness of six
weeks from typhoid fever. The de-
ceased was popular and well-known
young lady, and around her sick bed
anxious relatives and friends have held
vigils during her illness in hopes. flu
tile though they proved, that the crisis
of her disease, which kept them in
such torturing suspense, would take q
favorable turn. But Death, it was de-
monstrated later, had marked her
for his own, and after all the cruel
fluctuations ofthe disease from which
she suffered she was doomed at last to
fall before the scythe which spares
neither young nor old. Her relatives
and friends have the sincere sympathy
of their many friends while passing
through the dark valley into which
this aftliction has plunged them.

well-known and popular gentleman will

Cured at his home in Warrenton last
night. Capt Payne during the war was
commander Of the famous Black Horse
Cavalry, made historic by its almost
hand-to- hand conflict with the Els
worth Zouave5 al the first battle of Bull
Run. The deceased followed the for
tunes of the Confederacy throughout
the four years struggle. and at the
close of hostilities returned to his native
heath, where he was honored with posi-
tons of public trust, among them Dele
gate to the Legislature from Fauquicr.
OF late years he had followed his pro-
tession as lawyer, and was always re-
garded as aman of ability The pail
bearers for his funeral will be selected
from survivors of his old command.
Many years ago Capt. Payne and Col.
John :. Mosby became estranged on ac-
count of the attitude taken by the latter
in supporting General Grant for the
Presidency, and so strained were their
relations that challenge was received
by the captain. He WAS on the field on
time, but Colonel Mosby had been ar
rested in the meantime, and no conflict
occurred. The affair was finally adj
iusted to the satisfaction Of both parties.

Minnesota Crop Report

The temperature has averaged
slightly above the normal, the first
part being below with cool nights
and light frosts which slightly in
jured in a few localities, corn, buck
wheat and potatoes. The damage
is not serious, and will not have any
material effect upon the total yield.
The latter part Of the week was
warm and excellent wea Their for rip
ening corn and otherlate crops. The
rainfall was greatly deficient and
greatly delays fall blowing and SOW
ing OF winter grain. 1t has also
dried up the pastures SO that in
many places cattle have to be fed,
but these injurious results are offset
by the weather being excellent for
stacking and threshing, which is now
in full blast, except in a few places
where it is retarded, farmers holding
off on account of low prices.
The following yields were reported
during the week: Kittson Co., 20 to
% bushe Is, grade No. hard and No
I Northern; Polk Co., 5 to 16 bushels
and some exceptional fields as high
as % bushels; Becker Co.. 10 bushels

Wabasha Co.. 5 to IL bushels; Lyon

is being cut and ripening fast. The
