Fred Ctolchin. a boy aged abotst sixteen years, and "1::- Itres neir the jail had the misfortune ; I this menming to break his k-ft leg between the knee and ankle. Fred ■ was r iding along on Third street n a horse that was not shod and ;in turning the eorner at the Murray Hotel to come east on Madison ; street the horse dipped and fell. I falling directly acroas the left lei: of the boy. Several men who were sitting in Fred Scheiman’s Meat Market at owe hastened to the boy's aid and in a few moments had him liberated. They carried him into I the shop and Dr. C. 8. Clark was hastily summoned and reduced the ■ fracture. Joe was then taken home where he will undoubtedly be. confined for some time. The fact has been brought to the notice of the Mayor and other city officials that some hoodlnms or miserean’s are taking great pleasure in shooting out the electric lights in the river bridge and also some of the lights out at the edge of town. Os ocurse the city officials realize that these lights make good marks but is rather a costly past me to the tax payers of the city and • should at once be looked into. The i large glass bulbs encircling 'he light cost the city on an average of one dollar apiece and at the end of the year when added up amounts to a very neat sum. This of course is not laid up against any honest citizen but is thought to be the work of several dunken hoodlums whose names we withold, but who are under survei lance of the officers and should the guilty parties again be caught in the act of destroying the public property, he or they will be dealt with to the , full extent of the law The lights are placed there for a public benefit and not to furnish amusement l r target practioe for any special party. So the guilty one had better put an end to this kind of work and save themselves further exposing j and needless trouble.

Passenger train No. 2, south bound on the G. R A’ struck a man at Kalamazoo, Mich., Thursday morning. Neither the engtn- ' eer nor any one ab art! the train saw the man hit. and the discovery was not made until the tram got to Vicksburg, nine miles away. At thi--ta’. n the body of a man , was found kdged in the truck of the pilot, one arm having caught ver the axle. One of the legs was stone. This was suwequentiy found at Austin lake, about half I way between where the man was struck and Vicksburg. The body ! proved to be that of Benjamin F. Danse-, fifty-seven years old, residing in Kalamazoo. With the opening of spring will come a demand for houses and Detur is in need of a number. Here is an opDortuniy for some capitalist to realize on his investment and Ido a good turn for his t< wn.
