A law passed it the last session of the
State Legislature provides that "if any per

animal into any river, well, spring, cistern,
reservoir, stream or pond, he shall be pun
ished by imprisonment in the County Jail
not less than ten. nor more than thirty days,
or by line not less than five or more than
one hundred dollars.''
Tin: housekeeping public should bear in
mind, that at no other placc in this region
an they purchase tableware, tabic cutlery,
kerosene lamps and fixtures, silver-plated
brittnuia, alhata and planished ware, so
•heap as at Webb'. No. 10 Le Claire llow.
They import their goods and purchase do
mestic articles from lirst hands, which ena
bles them to undersell all small purchasers.
Call on them always when you want goods
in their line.
CROP PROSPECTS.—A ride through differ
ent portions of the county furnishes us con
clusive evidence that the promise of an
abundant harvest was never better. The
wheat fields present a most vigorous aspect.
No farmer could ask for a hettcr "stand."
The same may be said of corn, oats, etc.,
all of which are healthy and thriving.—
The farmers seem to be all of one mind as
to the progress of affairs so far, and look
forward with confidence to the dav when
the growing crops will yield them well filled
graneries—and cause their pocket-books to
grow plethoric with "greenbacks."
ESTION.—We
have taken con-
sid'-rable pains to become posted as to the
sentiment of the public upon the method of
settling the gas question, presented at the
last meeting of the City Council, and are
glad to be able to say that the proposition
as agreed upon by the select committee 011
the part of the Council and the officers of
the (ias Company, meets with almost uni
versal approval. The people are earnest in
their desire to have the streets lighted, and
they feel that the arbitrament of case is safe
in the hands of Messrs. Hcnnett, Bills and
Armstrong, and arc willing to abide by
their decision.
The Council holds an adjourned meeting
this evening to take the subject into con
sideration, and it is to be hoped that that
honorable body in the plentitude of its wis
dom, will agree unanimously upon such re
ference. It is not wise to defend expensive
law suits, when there is a chance for an
equitable adjustment, and that opportunity,
we truly believe, is now presented.
THE LAHCEMT CARE.—The cart* tf the
State vs. the Westphal boys for larceny of
dry goods, hardware, etc., has been settled.
The boys through their attorneys—Messrs.
Hubbel and Claussen, plead guilty to petit
larceny in several instances,—Fred to four
and Henry to one. Fred goes to jail four
months and Henry one month. Costs set
tled by the boys' parents.
This is a most remarkable case. Through
thick and thin, although in the hands of
skillful prosecuting attorneys, they crossed
themselves several times, so as to leave no
doubt as to their guilt, had any existed at
first, they stoutly denied stealing
the goods.
They were talked with in private by the
gentlemen whose goods they stole, whose
confidence they most grossly outraged, and
who had no desire to visit upon boys so
young the extreme penalty of the law—
they were plead with, coaxed, and com
manded, but tdl the way through they main
tained most stubbornly that they were inno
cent. After the attorneys on either side
had agreed upon a settlement they then re
fused to plead guilty to any charge, but
finally consented to let their attorney use
his discretion in the matter. They are
hardened little sinners.

THE SMI/.EK FARM."—When it was an
nounced that Jesse Fidlar was selling tick
ets in the great St. Louis Sanitary tair
lottery, and that a farm valued at
was among the prizes to be drawn, our citi
zens went in extensively for the lucky num
ber. Buying such a piece of property for
one dollar would be a bargain almost un
precedented. Everyl»ody who purchased
boasted of their "great expectations," but
either one would have as soon calculated
on being struck by lightning as drawing
the right ticket. One chance out of OU/MMI
is about as poor a prospect as a man could
imagine, but somebody had to draw the
property, and we are glad to be able to «tnte
that it was drawn in this city. It is ui
annonnced that 34,472 is the lucky number,
ami that ticket was purchased by Capt. C.
If. Martin, of the l^uartermaster's Depart
ment, of this city, and Mr. tieo. F. Carpen
ter, (formerly of the firm of Richardson,
West & Co., of this paper, clerk in the
ame office. We congratulate them upon
their excellent fortune. The Smizer farm
was the property of Mr. Smizer, fonuerly
County Collector of St. Louis county. He
became a defaulter and thi* farm was taken
by the county. The following paragraph
from the St. Louis JiepxUirnn of the 4th
inst., (before the drawing.» give some idea
of the extent of the property
This (Saturday) evening, without fail, the
drawing of the tickets will take place in
the Smizer farm scheme. T° «'lav wme
doubts that have been expressed about the
honesty of the drawing, we will say that
the members of the committee who have the
management of this affair are gentlemen
above reproach, and the details of the whole
enterprise have been so carefully managed
that there can In no possible cheating in
any p:!rt of it. No #/c ninixjuti will l»e at
tempted, or if attempted, it could not be
carried through without detection. Neither
docs the Fair itself intend to buy up the last
hundred shares, as some have said. Mr.
Sol. Smith, the obliging and agreeable agent
for the sale of the ticket*, told us at 4 o'
clock yestei-ky, that nearly all of the fifty
thousand hud been dispo.iud c!'. Jfc takes
til"-, that remain on hand. F.irty-nine
thousand and odd have been sold at random,
and without any order, to all buvers. and
the whole quantity of corresponding rutin
hers will he placed in a win I, in the pre
sence of the crowd, and after being mixed
up promiscuously the lucky numbers will
tie drawn out by the naked hand a:id arm
of a little child. There wiil be a lively time
ti.cn, we think.
For the p.-i.-t two weeks people have had
the Smizer Farm mania. '1 |iey have it 'on
the brain" to some extent. In the rich
month of June, they can already imagine
themselves ensconced as the proprietor of
this line estate, roving through the meadows,
smelling of their fragrance, and of the fresh
earth, admiring the beautiful trees and
flowers, and listening to the Mrd. »m
gentleman is so strongly impressed with the
idea tint he "has it," that he has already
formed a scheme of lots into which it is to
be divided and sold. Many have dreams
about it and certain lucky numbers. One
person dreamed of a number which was to
be the clincher, and early the next morning
offered Mr. Sol. Smith a premium of £.Vi fur
that ticket. Mr. Smith told him he had
sold the charmed figure, ami advised him to
advertise in the papers. A very poor wo
man invested the careful savings of her little
daughter in a ticket, and knows she will get
the farm. Passing along Olive street, blocks
away from the Fair Oround, a rusty looking
man was heard to remark to a companion.
Some rich old fellow will get it who don't
need it." Of course he refeired to "the
farm." Although every share-holder says
that he is the lucky man, yet everyone
knows in his heart that he won't get it, and
inst ead of being disappointed, there
will consequently only one be disappointed,
o u e i i e e a n a i i i i i
The Smizer farm contains five hundred
acres, situated 011 the Merrimac river, eight
een miles west of the city Mci 1 imae Sta
tion. on the Pacific railroad, is on the oppos
ite side of the river. A fine bridge, recent
ly constructed by the county at a cost of
many thousands of dollars, spans the river
at this point. The land is alluvial and verv
productive. A portion is covered with "a
fine growth of timber, comprising the elm,
walnut, shelibark, hickory, pawpaw and
burr oak, all indicative of rich soil. The
farm is under a high state of improvement.
A splendid mansion crowns one of the risin"
eminences, from the piazza of which a pros
pect of twelve or fifteen miles can be ob
tained. Numerous barns, sheds and stables
are at convenient distances, and several fine
quings of water are near the house. A
complete distillery ahd grist mill are part of
the improvements. There is a splendid
range stock of all kinds, extending for
many miles in the rear of this princely
estate. The Merrimac river is navigable up
to this point by steamers of a low draught.
We congratulate beforehand the lucky fel
low who will get all this for one dollar!
The two fortunate gentlemen leave for St.
Louis this evening, to receive their title to
the estate.
