Dodgevilla Chronicle.
Last Sunday, James Gilbertson, a
young man employed on the farm of
John Beckerleg, in the town of Dodge
vile, went home to visit his parents,
Mt and MIS-. Christopher Ga5sptgsFi,
in the town of Wyoming, and to enjoy
a hunt. He had brought his gun cut Of
the house, 33-40 Winchester. and was
standing, talking to his brother, with
the gun leaning against his left shout
der and his right hand over the muzzle.
when the gun was in some manner dis
charged. The ball passed through his
hand, carrying with it pieces of the
bone, which with the ball were driven
up through his left shoulder and breast,
the ball passing out through and the
pieces of the bone lodging in his neck.
DR.. Pierce was hastily summoned and
dressed the wounds, and at last accounts
the young man was doing well and in
fair way to recovery.

notes, but on Tuesday of this week Sc
cured payment for the full amount of
the same from Morse. This occurrence
raised suspicion and it was found that
the Gratiot bank had one of these notes
sold by Morse for $3.50. William LaDue
of South Wayne made the complaint.
Morse borrowed 500 from him and
gave as security two notes which have
since been pronounced forgeries. Per-
haps there are others.
"A mining story which will interest
people in this district is now going the
rounds. AS the story goes, Russian
who had wendell his way to Arizona be-
came lost in the wilds and was for a
long time without food. When the
pangs of hunger were fiercest deer
fell prey to his gun. The animal fell
into sort of crevice and in freeing it
the Russian brought forth quantity of
dirt so rich that it later yielded SO, 500
worth of gold. The gold find was care
fully covered, map of the locality was
drawn, and the Russian returned to
Chicago. He later died, leaving his
maps and interests to a friend. Chas.
Bushnell, former Platteville boy, was
brought into the circle, and he made a
trip to Arizona and found the land
marks as given on the map, but failed
to locate the lost mine. Bushnell knew
that Chas. Grunow of Livingston had
had experience in the mining fields Of
Alaska, and asked that he might be en-
trusted with the duty of searching for
the mine. A party of of twelve Chicago
men have formed company to furnish
funds to supply Grunow while he makes
the search for the lost mine.
Darlington Rep: Two of the best
strikes ever made in this district oc-
CURED a few days ago on the Lavery
farm, two miles east Of the city of
Shullsburg. Scott Bros. have been
drilling on this land, and in one hole
struck lead at the depth of Is feet. The
lead continued to depth of SO feet,
when Mr.. Lavery ordered the drill to
another part of the farm. They started
to drill and struck lead at depth of 10
feet. The lead continued to depth of
80 feet. In the same hole they struck
jack at 10 feet and it continued to a
depth of 127 feet AS Mr.. Lavery is
having the prospecting done himself,
he considered it best to stop drilling in
both holes and left lead at the bottom
of one hole and jack at the bottom of
the other. The lead and jack are of the
best quality. This is the first time that
jack has been discovered east of town
and it is all new mining ground, as moth
ing but shallow mining was done some
years ago.
Some newspaper men are terrible
liars. In writing of cyclone out west
one of them said it turned a well inside
out, a cellar upside down, moved
township line, blew the slaves out of
whiskey barrel and left nothing but
bung hole, changed the day Of the week,
blew mortgage off farm, blew all
