tuamed'ap by the New Voik Time-: During
tbo week whloh ended Saturday, eight dead
bodies were foaod floatiog near our city
dock, an uoknown woman wa found dead
la th street, and a prominent German citl-
cea mysteriously disappeared. Ia nearly
erery instance these persons were fonlly
murdered, else tbelr bodies would not bare
borne tbe mark of the bludgeon, tbe koile

case of murder io which the anie mortem
testimony of tbe victims baa already proved
tbe guilt of murderer, and tbe numerous
murderou assaults which Lave occurred
during th week, rome of which mar yet
end fatally, we bare a record of crime and

BUTLER CODNTT.
A correspondent write to a from Bruloi
Butler county, nnder date of June 4th, at

"The field 1 .bolng rapidly leased nnd

will carry tbe adrance line of development
across tbe county, and many of our quleti
unassuming farmer will hare become mil
lionaires. Duriog this time, and for year

many more millions expendrdln operations,

"We will also receive a large accession to
our popalatioo of men of wealth and moral
worth and already the tidal wave of Immi
gration ia tweepiog down upon at fiom the
upper county, and they are tomlog with
their wives and families to make this their

Siiootiko Affair. At tbe Oil Exchange
Hotel, Parker's Landing, ou Friday of last
week, a man named Fltzpatrlck was abus
ing a couple of Italian muHician who were
playing there. Tbe clerk of bouse attempt
ed to put Filzpatrick out, when be drew a
pistol with tbe Intention of shooting or alar
ming the clerk; io4be ecufili the pistol was
discharged sod the ball penetrated tbetUlvb
of one Fitzgerald, who happened to be in
tbo bouse at tbe time, Inflicting a alight
wound. Fltzpatrlck was taken before Es
quire Fullerton, and sent to jail ia default
of $1,000 ball.
Cbicauo Still Ahead. The Chicago
Adrance, a paper usually edited with great
care, oren to ita smallest Item, stated a few
week ago that an artesian well recently
bored by J. V. Farwell & Co., in their new
store, was discharging water at tbc rate of
10,000 gallons per minute. That doesn't
sound rery atrange for one minute, but
wben tbe minutes In n day are multiplied
by It, and we And a total of 14,100,-00 gal
loos In n day, or about fifty gallons for every
Inhabitant of Chicago, a quantity equal to
balf a month's pioduotion of petroleum In
tbe eotire oil regloo, and when we are told
further that tbe whole amouot comes out
through a l loch bole, we are loolined to
think that there Is a mistake somewhere.
