Death of the Victim A sad case of accidental and fatal shooting occurred in the town of Les sor, Shawano, county, on Sunday last. by which a young man lost his life at the hands of his friend, who has since the occurrence been almost crazy with anguish.

it seems that the young, men, from the southern part of the state, were jin the town hunting for, deer, and were somewhat inexperienced in woods life, but when they separated to take differ ent directions it. was understood be tween them, that in case of either! of them helloing the other waito respond if within hearing. After a time, the one who was shot, was sitting on; stump, and heard his friend call, at riot a great distance, but instead of reply ing waited an instant or two and then started to push through the brush, tit tering a blowing sound, and his friend hearing it and the, crackling of the brush, mistook it tor a deer, and in stantly fired, the ball penetrating the the body of his unfortunate young friend, who was carried to the house of a Mr. Dean, before whom and others he made an anti-mortem statements al ly. -'exonerating his friend, living but about four hours from the time he was shot The deceased was an orphan whose name we did not learn.

The name of the other was Frank Maynard. The remains of the deceased were buried on Tuesday, in the Black Creek cemetery. We are indebted to A. Herman, of Black Creek, for this information. He states that the young man who Tir ed the fatal shot, is almost crazed over the sad occurrence.

AT THE- BRIDGE. Theodore Berg, the contractor fdr the new bridge, has an active force of men at work, in charge of Mr. W. L. Sweetzer, pushing the work as rapidly as the circumstances of the case will permit, and Mr.

S. thinks that they Will have it so far completed within 12 or 14 days that teams may be able to use it, which will be a great relief to the business public, especially as it is so difficult to draw heavy loads up the hill at the central bridge. contractor could not do this as he had expected to early in the summer, on account of the continued high water, and at present it is still too high for economical working, yet he can postpone no. longer. The bridge is being very substanti ally built of heavy bents resting on mud braced, and the crossing parts of the stringers on the bent are coated with coal tar for protection against water and decay.

The joists are 3x14 and also tie-braced. Three inch oak plank are used to cover the bridge. The sidewalks will not be built until after the drive way is completed, nor will the bridge be railed till then. A portion of the north shore end is to be walled up with stone and filled in. Mr.

Berg has a portion of the stream shut off with a coffer dam where he will get out stone needed.and will doubtless have a surplus to sell. THE NORTHERN STATE FAIR. Its appropriate Closing; Event. The Oshkosh North-Western says that the life members had raised a purse and purchased a line Elgin stem- winder, hunting case gold watch at Kelley'sewelry storej for a presentation to Secretary Torrey Saturday af ternoon. At the appointed hour every body gathered at the central stairs, whither Mr.

Torrey was inveigled.when he was halted by E. Finch, who, in a superbly fitting speech, presented the watch to him. ire alluded to Mr. Tor- rey's labor, through thick and thin, in rain and shine, night and any, at home and abroad, everywhere and at all times, for the one great end the success of the Northern 'fair. As a.

slight token of his eminent and faithful ser vices to the association, and as a mars of the esteem in which he was held.the donors desired to contribute this me mento. Mr. Torrey was affected almost be yond control by this sudden and unexpected scene. He alluded to his work in past years and gave credit to wife for the encouragement she had lent him, in never murmuring, however frequent he might be away from home or out nights attending to his duty. He felt wedded to this society, in the sub-cess of whose- future all might confidently rely.

He thanked the donors for this beautiful gut, but was unable to proceed further as his yoico faltered and he was choking with emotion. The band struck up a national air, three cheers were given for Torrey, and by a tide of friends he was almost carried back to his office. It wa3 a-fitting scene to the closing of the great, fair. The watch is handsomely ornamented witn vermicelli edges, and bears this inscription: Presented to R. D.

Torrey. by his friends of the Northern Wisconsin Agricultural and Me- obanloal Association, Sept. 18, 18S0." THE NEW TRUCK. The new nook and Ladder appa ratus, built by Chris. Heinz for this city is now fully and fitted out with everything necessary for use at fires, such as ladders, poles, hooks, chains, rope, axes, bars, picks, Bhovels and rubber buckets.

The truck is a beauty, being built of the best possible material to be had, and it is well known that Mr. Hemz prides himself on his work, Inever learning the art of slighting work, and in this instance.es-pecially, he proposed doing a job that would not oniy be a credit to himself. but the city also. He has built a truck that is almost a counterpart of the 5reen Bay truck, which cost $1200, only that this is a better aparatus, and it will not cost the city more than one- naif as much saving 9000 to the taxpayers, for a valuable aid to our fire department. The weight is about 3000 pounds, a half-dozen men can, take it anywhere.

W.SR'y, bridge, and run the chances of being to dodge down on the outside cross-timbers and hang on, as it were, by their eye-brows. In any event it is a poker-ish place to cross, walking the ties. Well, on Monday a man started to go across, with a bag of something light on his shoulder, ahd soon the cans came along, slowly, and it was rare sport for ar crowd on the river bridge, to see him run a short distance, duck down in a heap, look scary at the cars and then start up again, the engineer of the locomotive giving the fellow a chance to reach terra firms ahead of the cars, and as he neared the end of the bridge plunged head foremost off and landed in a heap of dust, apparently thankful that be escaped with a whole skin, the crowd on the bridge cheering him with yens or laugnieri On his return he went over the lower bridge!

On Monday, Sept. 20, 1880, at his res idence, in the town of Urand Chute, near this city, Abner C. Darling, for more than 40 years a resident of Wis consin, over 30 of which were spent in this city, departed this life at the age of nearlv 08 years.

This death created a profound sensa tion among the old settlers, all of whom were' personally acquainted 'with the deceased. Mr. Darling was born near Rome, X. October 29, 1812, went with bis father's family, a very large one. to Michigan, when" he was a boy, in 1825 was married in Western New York to Miss Nancy A.

Green, at the residence of her uncle, Robert Green, wno nas resided with Mr. Darlmjf for many years, and still survives him at an advanced age; emigrated in 1840 with bis wife and their only daughter, now Mrs. L. S. Coiman, of Milwaukee, to the very new village of Bacine remov ed in 1850 to Appleton, then almost a dense forest, and speedily erected a store on College Avenue, which still stands with its red front as one of the few land marks left of Appleton ear ly days, and embarked in business.

His wife, a most estimable lady, died in the spring of 1807, and some years subset quently he married Miss Sarah Green; daughter of Robert Green, who with three children survives him. Only two of his'brothers are living, Henry Dar ling of Fox Lake, Wisconsin, and Franklin Darling, of Minnesota. The great fire of 1873. which swept the old Crescent Hotel, and many oth er business buildings, originated in the building he then occupied, about where Shroeder's furniture now stands, and destroyed $4,000 worth of uninsured goods. This loss, with the subsequent depreciation of real estate that followed the great panic of 1873, left him nearly penniless, and from that time to his death it has been a constant strug gle with financial disappointment, and disaster, until the strong man succumbed.

Always active, ever seeking to rise above the pressure of events, he has commanded sympathy and respect, and this announcements his demise elicited on every hand the most earnest regrets. Mr. Darling, during nearly all the years of bis manhood, was an active, yet unobtrusive communicant in the Methodist Episcopal church, and all who knew him intimately will bear tes timony that he was sincere and sought to do right. On Wednesday a large number of citizens and friends, including most of his old neighbors, gathered at his dwelling to pay their last tribute of re spect to his gentiine.wortb, and on that beautiful autumnal day, they placed his remains in their resting place, Riverside cemetery, his life work all done, his eternity begun. Conflagration In Green Bay.

A. TKRKIBU? DAT: Monday waan terrible -day for heavy gale of wind blowing throughout Wisconsin. Just before three o'clock, p. an alarm of fire at Green Bay brought out thousands of people because of the fierce gale. Tne Hre proved to be In the old As tor planing mill, formerly the Astor ware- bouse, situated on the banks or the ox River, Immediately south' of Mason street bridge.

Residents of the locality and those who were first on the spot, attributed its origin to sparks from the propeller Oconto, which, at that moment, had passed up the river, on her way to ufere. only for a brief space could the fire be said to be confined to that building. Dry as tinder the flames curled about it, and almost in the time it takes to write it, the blazing cinders were thrown to adjacent buildings. The wind at the time was blowing from the south, and it looked as though Washington street and its business were doomed to rapid destruction. The fire began spreading to the north, enveloping the dwellings of Mrs.

Basch and Philip Francks, when the wind suddenly veered to the southwest, throwing the fire across the street, and starting on the track of devastation that it thenceforth so steadily pursued, diagonally across and through some of the finest residence portion of the city, for over a mile in length, till it struck Main street, and Uiere was, got under control. Alonits blackened trail here and there a few buildings escaped, the flames seeming to jump over them. Among the numerous land, marks destroyed were the old Bank of Wisconsin, building erected in 1836, the Presbyterian church, in 1837, the Burley Follett res idence. 1833, together with many of the finest residencesi as well as some of the poorest in the The Presbyterian parsonage was al so destroyed, and on Main street, not far from Devil River, a fine store and few other minor business buildinars. About sixty inhabited dwellings and thirty barns and nearly twenty empty buildings were swept away.

Fort Howard, De Pere, and Oconto sent fire steamers to the aid of the sufferers, but the wind defied the efforts of men and people. Of the sixty families burned out and the two or three structures additional to residences, the total loss may be put at 9125,000. insurance to amount to about 87,000" is reported.

(ioaty was endeavoring to cross the C. N. VV. R'y track on Superior- street while a train was switching, and thinking at that moment that the train was not moving, attempted to climb over the connections between two ot the ears. In doing this he unfortunately put his left foot on the connecting link between the cars, just at the in stant that- the train happened to be backing.

The result was that the foot was caught and crushed between the buffers, in which position ho was held until a brakeman seeing the situation could signal the engineer to move the train forward. The accident is a very painful and quite serious one. FIRE IN CICERO. The house and barn of Paul JJruch, town of were totally destroyed by fire at about 3 o'clock Sunday morning last, burning the man's household furniture, goods, and the crop in his barn, also his farm machinery," involv ing him in a loss of some S1200, on which he -had an insurance policy of S1800, in the Germantown company.
