THE WEEKLY WISCONSIN. MILWAUKEE, JiOTEHBER 1.1882. GOLD IN MINNESOTA. The TOeta.1 Alleged to Exist Ja Paying In Yellow medicine Account of the ms- ec very. the St.

Paul Honeer-Prese.) P. L. Derby, of Chicago, was in St Paul yesterday and exhibited specimens of free gold taken from rook outcroppings along the Bluffs on the Minnesota River at Granite Falls, and also specimens of the rock in which the metal is alleged to exist The samples, both of the metal and ore, were foundation enough on which to build an interview with Mr. Derby, and he said: Ton know, of course, that Granite Falls is located on the Minnesota River, in Yellow Medicine County, in the valley between the bluffs that skirt the river 'at that point nst below the town on the river is an outcrop of granite, from which the town derives its name. The general topography of the valley is broken and ridges have been formed from to twenty feet above the surrounding surface, from which thfe supposed gold bearing rock crops in various places.

The rock is evidently composed of is: a primitive formation. About five or six years ago a man named Smith, who owned eight acres of land in vicinity, thought that he had discovered gold in this which there were heavy ontcroppings upon his he did not investigate the matter very thoroughly, and his stories were soon forgotten. Smith went down into Kansas to work, and engaged with a company mining galena. There he explained his gold theory, and the proprietors of the galena mine were sufficiently impressed with Smith's description of rock, the formation of the country, to supply him with means to return to Granite Falls and make further investor gations. So he went back to his patch of ground and began operations.

He sank a shaft, or a hole, in tbe rock, and the material taken from it was forwarded 1o practical workers in Montana, and there it was pronounced workable ore. A man named Russell owned the balance of thirty-two acres wliicli formed the forty upon which Smith was at work, and noticing what the discoverer was doing, also began sinking a shaft. Other soon got the gold fever, among them a man named Sice, who sunk a shaft on the east side of the river. Well, Smith's shaft went down ten feet, and at four feet he took out ore which assayed $25 per ton, and at nine feet $30. Enssell's rock went $10 to the ton right at the surface, and he struck $40 ore within two feet of the top.

Prof. Wincnell, the state geologist, assayed some of the rock, and found it to be gold-bearing. As a natural consequence great local excitiment has been created. Russell was offered $15,000 for fifteen acres of his land, and the whole tract of thirty-two acres only cost him $72, not long ago. The find is of enough importance to warrant the immediate building of a mill for the reduction of the ore, and I am going in with Bussell to put up a stamp mill, while Smith will be backed by the Galena Company in Kansas, who will work his shaft and pay him 1Q per cent, royalty, and will also get in machinery as soon as possible.

The fever is running high in that vicinity just now, and Granite Falls bids, fair to become a genuine mining camp.

Evening Poet, October 13.J Of all the strange and romantic incidents in: the career of John Brown and his family, one of the strangest was the burial yesterday in this mountain fastness of that son of John Brown whose body was taken by Virginia, in 1859, as a specimen inanatomy, and hssremoined till nowunbnried. Watson Brown, with his older brother, Owen, and his young- est'brother, Oliver, accompanied John Brown to tie Kennedy farm in Maryland in the summer of 1859, and marched down with him toward Harper's Ferry, on the 16th of October, when he invaded Virginia with seventeen men, and captured an which he held in his possession for a day. Owen Brown remained on tne Maryland shore to guard arms and supplies, while Watson and OHyer went across the Potomac into Virginia and captured Harper's Ferry. Both these sons retreated with their father into the engine house, where he was besieged and taken captive by. Gen.

Lee, who afterward was besieged and taken captive by. Gen. Grant Oliver was shot, and died before John Brown surrendered; bnt Watson, though mortally wounded 'before his father's lingered for a day and died the day after the surrender. Perhaps it was for this reason that the Virginians took his dead body to their medical college Winchester, hot far from Harper's Ferry, and there prepared it or anatomical use in the col- to give it up for burial to his mother, who-asked for it Two or three years later, when Winchester was occupied by the Union army in the civil the surgeon of an Indiana regi- between his fingers and descended into the pit of his stomach. Unsuccessful efforts were made to regain it by means of an instrument passed down the oeso- phagus.

The man was then removed to the Hospital Laribowien, where the eminent surgeon, Dr. Felizel, successfully performed the operation of opening the stomach by means of an incision and extracting the spoon-therefrom. The stomach had- previously been dilated by means of vapor of ether. This delicate operation lasted three-quarteis of an hour, -during which time, the patient was kept under the influence of chloroform. What with his stomach fall of ether and his brain full -of chloroform, he must-have been in a funny state.

At last accounts he was doing remarkably, well, and the doctors think he will be able to leave the hospital in a few days. Remarkable as this case may seem, it is not'the only one of the kind. The medical records cite numerous in- stanoes persons swallowing forks, spoons, a bar of lead weighing nearly a pound, and a long list things so extraordinary that to enumerste them wonldseem like a too reckless flight of imagination, and of their successfully being relieved of these indigestible articles, either in a natural way or by the help of surgery.

When the surgeon heard last August that the widow ef John Brown was still living, and was traveling from. California to the Adirondack Mountains to visit her husband's grave, he felt some compunctions of conscience and wrote to her, offering to give up the remains of her pon for burial.

WASHINGTON, D. October bucket-shop has recently had a curious experience. It has been swindled out of $8,000 by a telegraph operator who held back the-quotations until a telegraphic confederate who was sitting near could hear the report and make his deal. This practice has been carried on for "several weeks. The operator acknowledges the but says that in holding back the quotations for his own benefit THE large four-story planing-mill of the Gass Phillips Manufacturing Company, corner of Fisk and Twenty- second Streets, Chicago, was destroyed by fire on the night of the 24th.

Loss on building. on stock, insured for $35,000. THE north-bound freight on the Louisville and Nashville ran from the track at Shepherdsville, on the 21st ult by running over stock. The engine and the whole train landed in an adjacent cornfield. The former turned over, killing the engineer, Geo, Louisville.

Loss, insurance about One warehouse of the Memphis Compress and Storage Company, containing about 600 bales of cotton belonging to Dillard Coffin, also burned. The cotton was insured, as was the building, which was damaged about 850,000.

THE lumber and planing-mill of A Backus, Sons, Detroit, took fire on the evening of the 24th and was wholly destroyed. The mill was one of the largest and most complete in the been United States. 4 It employed 250 men customers. This bucket-shop was fitted up an elaborate way, and for a time business ran smoothly. The government clerk having visions of suddenly accumulated wealth, sat in front of the blackboard watched with anxious eyes the quotations, only to find that he was wiped out Suddenly things took a change, and the proprietors found that they were steadily bnt surely losing.

On a bull or a bear market they had to settle with their customers, who appeared the same crowd. Suspicion was aroused and detectives wore put to work, and they also were puzzled. Finally the firm decided to employ a Baltimore detective firm, and Pmckney West was put on the case. On his arrival here on Friday, in company with an old and experienced telegraph operator, he commenced operations. Placing tbe operator near the instrument in Haselhurst's office, he could hear tbe ticker without being observed, West awaited results.

The experienced operator on watch discovered that the figures placed on the blackboard were not the same as those which came over the wire. The mystery was solved. The operator was confronted and confessed. The bucket-shop proprietors satisfied to pocket their loss, and no prosecution will follow. The operator was discharged, but- remarked: "All that I olid was to play the same game as they have been plaving on their customers.

Sis Asxoszo, Texas, October Four thousand decks of Mexican monte oardswere seized at Laredo yesterday by customs officers. These cards woe all the world knon-s, is here, where nis funeral was celebrated with great honor in December, 1859. He bad settled in these woods in 1848, on land which had been owned by Gerrit Smith, and which he had given to colored people 'as would settle on it. Brown was attracted by this offer of Gerrit Smith, and came here to live among the colored people, to train them in pioneer life, and perhaps enlist -some of them for his cam- pain against slavery, in which he had first enlisted his own children. Watson Brown came here with his father when -he was a lad of 14, grew up amid these mountains, and married the daughter of a neighboring farmer shortly before he went to die in Virginia.

Three years earlier (in 1856) he had left North Elba for a while to join his father and brothers in Kansas, but he returned here in 1857, and was tilling the hard acres of his mother's farm when his father's summons called him to Virginia. It was, therefore, with deep feeling that his former neighbors, the farmers and hunters of the Adirondack regioc, came to his strangely delayed funeral. They gathered at-the house of his father, near which, beside a great rock, John Brown is buried, and they lowered his coffin into a grave near his father's. after religious and commemorative services had been performed on the green in front of the cottage. The.

members of the family present at the funeralwere Mrs. John tall, vigorous-looking woman of 67 stepsons John and Owen, with their sister Ruth, the wife of Henry Thompson, and the widow of Watson Brown, Who has since married a cousin of her first husband, and lives near the Browns in This Mrs. Brown is the sister of Henry Thompson, and two of her brothers, as well as her husband and his brother, were killed at Harper's Ferry. None of the family of John Brown now live at North Elba, the sons and daughter of "the first marriage all residing in Ohio, and the son and three daughters by the second marriage living with or near their mother in California. It is possible, that some of the family may return to North Elba, to which, they fee! a strong attachment, both for its own sake and be-, cause their father's-grave is there.

it would be sent. Mi. Spaulding's idea was to retain the small change for the accommodation of the merchants, who Often suddenly need nickels, but who are now compelled to send east for them. None of the mints nickels except that.at and hence they are not obtainable at any other place. Five- cent and one-cent pieces are rapidly growing in popularity on this coast, but it appears ihat can possibly reach here must come through the banks or mercantile houses.

Evidently the mint bureau is under the impression that California is a foreign country, and nickels arc only intended for home consumption." A'Xest Egg. Mobile Register tells an interesting story of how, ten years ago, Mr. Jerry Troy, then conductor on the lower division of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad, loaned $2,000 to a young friend of his in Columbus, Ky. The borrower only needed it for a few months, and then deposited the $2,000 in a savings bank, of Cairo, in the name of Jerry Troy. A short time ago the conductor met.hia friend and in the conversation something was siid about the loan when tb.3 young man asked Mr.

Troy if he never drew the money out of the Cairo bank. Mr. Troy said he knew nothing about his friend hunted up the identical bank-book with the memorandum- of deposit in it. Mr. Troy took the bank-book, went to the bank, and made inquiry about the money, and found that it was all there, with ten years' interest added.

He was so well pleased that he concluded to let the money remain for a nest egg. A JTarrow Escape. As a train on the Cincinnati Southern Railroad was running at a good speed through a.deep cut less than a mile from Williamstown, the engineer observed that the track was obstructed, and put on the air-brakes. the train halted the last was yet in the cut. A square piece of timber, larger than a tie, was lying across the track, and four of the wheels of the locomotive (the- front truck) had jumped it and landed safely on the track again, and it was caught in front of the drivers.

It has only been a short time since a rail was discovered lashed across the track in the same vicinity, which leads to the belief that the efforts to throw the trains from the track were the work of ill-disposed persons who do not reside far from Williamstown.

If disease has entered the system the only sure and quickway to drive it out is to purify and enrich the blood.
