Mineral Point people generally
and veteran comrades OF the late
Captain Thos. Priestley especially,
are pleased to learn that his worthy
daughter, Miss Name w. Priestley,
has been re-appointed clerk in the
Adjutant Generals Office at Madison.
Mr.. G. &. Cox has been reap
pointed by the governor as mem
Der Of the State Board Of Agricul-

have made an appointment more
satisfactory to the people Of Iowa

The cost to the city last month
for pumping water was twenty-elght

is the trouble?
H caring nothing to the contrary,
it is assumed that Will Owens will

place he has acceptably filled for

all friends of Mr.. Owens and don't
want him disturbed.
1t is understood that the County

that paper having been selected as
the official organ of the Board.

SANTA ANNA's WOODEN LEG.
Lawmakers of Illinois Diligently
Pulling the Trophy.

A proposition is before the legislature OF
this state to present the artificial leg said
to be that of Santa Anna, now preserved in
the memorial hail at Springfield, to the
Mexican government for the use of some
surviving members of the Mexican chieftain's S
family. The resolution for that object came
near passing the house in moment of gen.
erous enthusiasm, but it was arrested by
some statesman who thought that greater
deliberation would be appropriate.
Santa Annals wooden leg-whether this is
the genuine article or not-occupies con-
spicuous place in history. In 1888 there was
a war of limited extent and short duration
between France and Mexico. Santa Anna
had recently returned to Mexico in dis
grace after his capture, imprisonment and
release by General Houston in the Texan
war. He sought army employment. which
he received in the forces raised to resist the
French. He took an active part in the de-
fense Of Vera Cruz, which the French at
tackled, and by his gallantry regained his
popularity. But the MeXicans were defeated
and driven on board their ships and the
castle CT San Juan D'Ulloa was captured.
While Santa Annals vessel was still near
port a cannon ball fred from the shore hit
him in the leg, which was so badly injured
that amputation became necessary. He was
afterward provided with the artificial limb
which has become notorious and historical.
During the war between the United States
and Mexico in 1S47 the battle of Cerro Gordo
was fought April II and IS, Santa Anna being
in command of the Mexican forces. He was
utterly defeated and put to flight with his
army One story is to the effect that he was
in a carriage on the battlefield, which he
was obliged to abandon on his hasty retreat,
that the carriage was captured and the OWN
er's wooden leg found on one of the seats.
Another story is that after the MeXicans had
fled the leg was picked up on the field by an
Illinois soldier named James Gill, who is
still living at Pekin, in this state; that he
kept it for a number of years and then pre-
sented it to the state to be preserved as a
trophy in memorial hall. The veteran says
that he can prove the identity of the relic
and he wants it to pass into the possession
of the surviving relatives of the original
owner. His wish is reasonable and generous.
1t should be gratied.

MORTON's NEW PARTY.

Detroit journal: j. Sterling Morton rises
with the courage of his convictions and tho
memory of good job to propose MIR. Cleve-
land for another term.
Atlanta Constitution: Since j. Sterling
Morton is forming a new party to drag"
MIR. Cleveland back into public life, what has
become of Eckes. or was his name Wiggles?
Minneapolis Times: ]. Sterling Morton
and Hazen s. Pingree are getting along as
well as could be expected with their new
political parties. 1t may be as well to add
that not much is expected.
Philadelphia Bulletin: Up to the hour Of
going to press the masses of the democratic
party had not exhibited irrepressible en-
thusiasm over Hon. j. Sterling Morton's
suggestion that Grover Cleveland ought to
be the next presidential nominee OF
democracy.
Milwaukee Sentinel: When the demand
for a new party becomes general enough to
warrant action Hon. j. Sterling Morton can
save time and money by addressing Hon.

son to take charge of the work and supply
plans and specifications
