Such reports are generally the imagination of the brain of the reporter. The advocates of free silver in Iowa, have called a convention to meet at Des Moines, in June. Teller, Wolcott and Jones, of Nevada, have been invited to be present and ad- dress the convention. The silyer moyement seems to be spreading rapidly.

Nat Hutton'’s Death. The body of Nathaniel D. Hutton, the young newspaper man who was accidentally killed, while on a vaca- tion in New Mexico, on Friday last, is expected to arrive in Kansas City today on the way to Mexico, Mo, where the buria! will take place. Mr. Hutton was engaged in news paper work in Kansas City for about four years, but was on the Chicago Tribune's corps when the fatal acci- dent occurred. He was out bear hunting in the vicinity of the Gila het springs, near Silver City, N. M., on Friday morning last and while attempting to ride around an ob struction in the trail, the horse lost his footiag and both rolled off the cliff into the canyon. Hutton’s neck | was broken and his body was fright-| fully mangled. A peculiar coincidence in connec- tion with his death was a story written by him and published in the Chicago Tribune two weeks ago It told of a bear hunt in which a cow- boy who bad roped bruin went over a cliff, but not to his death, as in the unfortunate writer's case. The) story was illustrated, and as a piece of pleasantry the artist gave Hut ton’s face and figure to the hero.
