ground -.cmorinI Association.

ST1LLMAN VALLEY, Ill, Jan. 2l.-The
deed conveying the land on which are
buried a number of soldiers who fell in
the Black Hawk war has just been execut-
ed The land consists of three lots former
ly a knoll within the village of Stillman
Valley, and which for sixty-seven years
has been the unmarked grave OF Capt.
John O. Adams and eight of his men.
The land was conveyed TO the Battle
ground Memorial Association. which has
been Incorporated under the laws of Illi-
nois
The ownership Of the land was in DR.. E.
j. Allen, who put up the property at auc-
ton, and the battle-ground Memorial As
ISOLATION bid it in for $751; More than
$500 has been raised by the association,
and the work Of grading and enclosing the
property, which is about six rods square.
has already begun. The State will be ask
ed 10 appropriate funds with which to
erect suitable monument.

was determined to dispose of the land the
citizens undertook to locate the grave.
They knew that the dead lay somewhere
on the knoll, but the exact location was
not known.
The Rev. r. ". Newlands and ]. A. At
wood, with spades. began to explore the
knoll. and after two days work discovered
three feet below the surface well-pre-
served skeleton That a soldier had been
buried there was abundant evidence. The
buttons of the clothing bits of a blanket
in which the dead had been wrapped and
a pair of cavalry boots were unearthed
The grave was found TO take the form Of
a trench which, there remains not a
doubt, contains the remains of Major
little band. which made ifs last
stand against Black Hawks forces on the
evening OF May IA, 1892.
The cause of the outbreak of the Indians
was their dissatisfaction with the sale Of
heir lands under the treaty of 1904. Black
Hawk had opposed the sale. but was BAN
shed to a reservation in Iowa in 1882. in |
hat year he crossed the Mississippi River |
and set up his tepees on his old hunting |
grounds. General Atkinson opposed his /
-eiurn and war resulted

oficials Of the company declare this is
done because OF oyerproduction, but among
the miners there is a general belief that II

labor trouble indicated by the present
unrest among the miners OF District No.
/. United Mine Workers of America. The
mines thus far closed are the Payne,
Diamond and Storrs Nos. !, 2, and g. all
in this neighborhood, and each employing
an average of five hundred men and boys.
The word is also passed that others of
the company's colliories will be shut down
at the close of work today The Lacka-

active in the grievance agitation The
company has offered 20 deal with its en-
ployes alone, but refuses absolutely 10 re-
