LAWRENCE JACKSON, the tall and muscular African who was utrested Friday night for promenading tho, streets in temale attire, was rought before Justice Wallace yesterday to Stand trial for the offense. The giddy fellow took a change of venue to Justice Summerield’s Court and there picaded guilty. The tine culled: for was $100.

Very few dog licenses: have been taken out this year, and Superiutendent McGarixle issued un orderyesterday directing the police to enforce the ordinance.

IT WAS CUCUMBERS. MR. ARMOUIt STANDS UP FOR HIS GOODS. The following dispatch from Crawfordsville, Ind., was printed in Friday's Cincinnati En- iver: “ Yesterday ‘Squire Smith, of the firm of R. C.

Kleine, our jeweler, who were there for supper. Dr. E. W. ikeexan came Ina few min- utes, and with a great etfort managed to relievo the children to 2 great extent, but Mrs. Smith's dose seemed to take hold of her witha death srip, and her suffering and agony for several hours was beyond description. She sent for-her relatives here in the city, as sbe said she could notxet well. The doctor terms it lead poison, and says it is caused by the inferior material used to make the cans. He states that the lead is cheaper than the tin, and they mix the two together and make a cheaper material for cans, but if they get two much lead in with tno tin it will poison the contents of the cau.” A Tuisuse reporter showed this dispatch to Mr. Brown, of Armour &Co., and he said the Story was absurd; that the people hud probably been eating cucumbers, und got sick. Lt was ‘the first case of poisoning he bad ever heard of Out of 50,000,000 cans sent out by the firm. THE COUNTY-BUILDING. Tnx Criminal Court was expected to adjourn yesterday for the summer vacation, but did not on account of a case on trial. . Tue Wilmette authorities peti tioned the Coun- ty Court yesterday for the opening of a strect across the tracks of the Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad Company in that village, and it will be beard in a few days. In the Criminal Court yesterday John C’Grady and Toomas Callopy were found guilty of burg- Jary and siven one year each in the Penitentiary. Audrew Furgeson, a married tonn, was found guilty of bustaray, and adjudged to pay $96 the rst year and $50 yearly for nine years for the support of the child. James Sweeney was on trial for larceny. Tue Committee on Towns and Town Accounts met yesterday aud passed upon bills forsupplics and “allowances to paupers in Lemont, Evans- ton, and otner towns. It was expected that a lively time would be had over the investigation into the troubles of Mux Huhu, Supervisor of Evanston, but the program was uot tilled. The Committee looked over his bills, and pronounced the system of bookkeeping to be very imperfect and loosely kept. There was absolutely nocheck on the groce: eepers who furnished the sup- S, and finally the Committee decided to visit ‘iscon Tnursday and interview the recipi- ‘ents of public charity for themselves. MURDERERS AND THELL COST. A correspondent writes Tue TemmusE inquir ing 2s to the nurmber of persons in jail on the charge of murder, and also a8 to what it has cost the people to’ care for them.

Some of the prisoners have been necessarily de- tained as long as they have, and others have not. In other cases the responsibility rests with the Supreme Court. U.S. A. Cnrcaco distillers exported seventy barrels of alcohol yesterday. ‘TeN thousand dollars in gola and $5,000 in sil- Ver was disbursed at the Sub-Treasury yester- day, the receipts footing up $12,000 ia silver. Tue internal-revenue receipts yesterday amounted to $57,751, of which $32,521 were for spirits, $4,185 for tobacco and cigars, and $90t for beer.

OTHERWISE ORIGINALLY KNOWN AS AHE COT- ‘TO: POSITIO: Col. ST, Jenkins, of Atlanta, Ga, Commis- sioner for the West to secure exhibits for the World's Fair to be held at Atlanta trom Oct. 6 to. Dec. 31, arrived in the city yesterday, and will remain several days, having made his head- quarters at the Grand Pacific Hotel. ‘In a conversation with a Trinuxe reporter yesterday the gentleman stated that the proj ect ‘was mecting with enthusiastic support from all sections of tho country. He found tms peculiarly true in his own territory,—the West,—and spoke with great pleasure of the Very cordial reception he had met with from the munufacturers and busiuess-men generally of Loui: Cinclunati, Evansville, St. Louis, and elsewhere, large ‘numbers of whom were enxious to Jearn wl i the pussible details in re- gard to the Exposition previous to thoir mak- ing- applications for space to the managers at Atlanta. What he has dune elsewhere—viz.:_ to furnish all necessary information ia regard to tho fair and to secure exhibits—Col. Jenkins Is ‘prepared to do bere in Chicago. It should be orne in mind that the oricinal idea of making the affair exclusively a Cotton Exposition nas been considerably modified, und it will be, instead of that, a Worid’s Fair, for the exhibition, princi- pally, of machinery. manufactures, and’ prod- uets of every conceivable kind. The managers haye wisely ubolished the usual charge at such fairs of 50 cents a foot for tour space, and, in lieu thereof, will simply charge an entrance fee of $25 to évers exhibitor... Every indication points to a large line of exhilfits, 1 good attend- ance during the exhipinon, and a degree of suc- cess even far beyond the original anticipa- tions of the managers. : ACCIDENTS. THE DAY'S MISFORTUNES. James Strue, 13 years old, while playing in the rigzing of the bowsprit of the schooner G. D. Norris, lying in the South Branch, near the Archer avenue bridge, at 11:30 yesterday foro- noon, accidentully fell into the water and was drowned. The body was recovered within afew minutes after the accident, and Dr. Muore. who was on hand, made efforts to resuscitate it. He thinks he would have been successful, too, but for the poisonous nature of the water which the jad bad swallowed. ‘The body was taken to the home of the parents at No, 220 Keeley street. Ciura Arado, 6 yeurs of age, whose parents live ut No. 114 West Lake strect, was severely injured about the head and chest at 7:15 Inst evening by being struck with a window-blind, which uccidentalty fell from the third story of No. 118 West Luke street while the occupant of the house.

The following table shows what the Water- Works did during two days of this week, City- Engineer Cregier having had the statistics _got- ten up in order to find out what the engines were dolng. Tho total capacity of all the engines is 103,000,000 gallons in twenty-four hours. On the days mentioned both engines at the West Side Works and the large double engine on the North Side were running all the time, the small double engine from 5.4. m. to 11p..m., and the sual single engine from 7:30a. m: to p, m., the large single engine, with a capacity of 12,000.00, being the onty one held in reserve.

G., who are put- ting upanArmory on the Luke Front just north of the Exposition Building, have given out, though hardly athird of the building has been com- pleted. Tho members have spent about $4,000 of their own funds, and want $10,000 or $12,000 more to finish their home. And they look to the. liberal-bearted citizens of Chicago to help them. “Itisa good thing to. have a battery of ar- tillery,” sald Mayor Harrison to a TriguNe re- porter] yesterday. “The city let the company have the ground rent-free, and the people ought to help thom erect the Armory.” “That battery,” said Controller Gurney, “is one of the grandest auxiliaries to the police force that we have ever hud in the city. They want help, and if the eitizens don't ald them to Put up thelr building and maintuin the organl- zation they will bu very neglectful of thelr own interests. ‘(ne battery isan excellent one, the ollicers aro capable men, and the rank and tile first class, and this vusrantees good service in case of necessity. Their building will cost about $15,000, ‘They bave expended on ft $5,000.—their own funds, which are exhausted; and they in- tend toask the people to make up the ditfer- ence.” The battery is certainly deserving of assist- ance, and itis tobe hoped that this appeal for subscriptions will be responded to with a gener- osity which will enable its members to carry out their object, and thus keep up the present eill- clency of the company LOCAL ITEMS.

Important Difference of Level Between Dakota andthe Country Southe Spectal Correspondence of The Chicago Tridunz, GLENDIVE, oN THE YELLOWwsToNE, July 15.—Even as far. west as Chicago, most peo- ple believg that the * Great American Desert” of our school-day geographies runs far up into Dakota.’ Western ‘stockholders In Northern Pacific, who expect great things of the property, “concede” that it has'a great deal of bad land along its tracks in Dakota, but they comfort themselves with the thought that elsewhere the land is good enough to make it all up. It is only lately that the road has been open by rail through to the Yellowstone, and the popular miscon- ceptions about Western Dakota have been strengthened by the reports of those who went to the Yellowstone by way of the Missouri, along the banks of which the Jand is bluffy and uninviting. There seems to be a natural tendency in the mind of man to believe that poor Jand and the fever and ague are tobe found in the “next town.” Gen. Hazen was by no means the first person to declare that Dakota was A WORTHLESS WASTE, Itis aamitted by old settlers in Minnesota that it was their universal opinion in the early days that the uplands of Dakota—so called because the streams are considerably below the surface of the country—were good for nothing. Any one who proposed to set- tle on those lands was dissuaded by the kind remonstrances of his neighbors. So well posted a man as Mr. F. R. Delano, of St. Paul, who knows more about the Northwest than anybody else, fell into this error. ‘Twenty-nine years ago Mr. Delano, in 1852, rode from Winnipeg on horseback 600 miles tothe northwest, and found. the land was good all the way, and farther. In 1861 he built out of St. Paul to the West the first rail- road in Minnesota, and he remembers won- dering, as he pushed his work. along, of what earthly use the land in Dakota would ever be to anybody. A mistake of the same kind was made by Gen. Tilton, of tne regu- Jar army, when he made many years ago the first army map of the Walla Walla Valley. Narrow strips of land in the valley half a mile wide were marked as fertile, but all be- yond went on record as “waste land.” "This waste land is now known to be the best of all. It is one of tho peculiarities of Oregon that, comparatively, the valleys are poor and the mountains good. But the MOST AMUSING OF ALL THE BLUNDERS about the real character of Dakota was made by Jay Cooke himself. Atnong the members of the party traveling with Mr. Villard is a gentleman who the first person invited by Jay Cooke to take hold of the Northern Pacific atits start. “ Well, Me. Cooke,” asked his friend, “what sort of country is_you Northern Pacific going through?” Mr. Cooke explained at great, len t an agricult- ural paradise Minnesota was. “ But how about Dakota?” * Well,” replied Mr. Cooke, * Dakota Lam afraid is the worst we've got. But it is good grazing country.” ‘The great entrepreneur thought the “worst he had’? was Dakota, where wheat has al Ys grown Wherever planted, where there has never been a failure of the crops, and where even the Bad Lands are fertile. ‘The early misunderstanding about the real character of Dakota was helped along by the reports of the soldiers who traversed it, ‘The expeditions that went. in pursuit of the Sioux after thi sacres that occurred about the beginning of the Civil War had a very hard i ‘The country was absolutely bare of all. settlement, ~ the surface water was bad, as it always is in prairie countries, - their wagons broke down, and they had a weary and dishearten- ing march homeward. They had nothing good to say of x country where they had suf- fered so much, and their account remained undisputed for many years as a true descrip- tion. ‘The real nature of the country was not Known till the squatter, the SCOUT OF OUR WESTWARD MARCH, ventured on these lands and found oyt the secret, of bonanza farining. Alkaline deserts are a great feature of this region in the Eastern imagination. We all expected to find some stretches of barren Aline land. ‘There is not an acre of it. Mr. R. Delano, spoken of above, declares that there are not a dozen alkali lakes between the Minnesota line and the Yellowstone. Around these, the land is fertile, and cattle are grazing and fattening. From we well-informed gentlemen “who accom- panied Mr. Villard from St. Paul some very interesting information was gathered ‘land and alkali wa Mayor Rice, of St. Paul,—who, by the way, though a Democrat, has just made the first appointment of a colored man on the police foree of St. Payl,—revalls that in the early days great complaint was made by the settlers “near St.Paul of the alkaline quality of the water. A specimen was sent to New York for analysis, and found to be about this subject of al little better than concentrated lye. Mr. Herman Trott, one of the original promot- ers of the first railroad in Minnesota, the St. Paul & Pacific, of h he was for many years Land Commissioner, remembers that all the surface water of the State at that time was impregnated with alkaline matter. He early discovered that the running water, and the lakes connected with running streams, were perfectly fresh. ‘This and some other observations led him to the conelusion, which is now universally accepted, that the alkali was the residuum of the ASHES OF COUNTLESS PRAIRIE FIRES. Rain had washed away the soluble parts and left the salts of soda and potash in the soil and in the stagnant pools.. ‘This is the extent of the alkali in the Northwest. Where there is no rain the alkali, of course, remains, and the origin of the'great barren wastes of the Southwest. But Eastern ideas of alkali lands need complete reconstruction. Where there is a.rainfal that permits culti on, the ‘alkali isan advantage. Gen. .J.S. Brisbin, now stationed at Fort Keogh, whom We net at Bismarck, states that the farmers of California have found that alkali Jands allowed to lie fallow a year after plowing are the strongest wheat Jands. Already com- plaints are being heard in Southern Minne- Sota that the’ ground is Josing these salts too rapidly, aud that. in consequence the wheat is growing soft. In short, in this atkaline residuum of the ashes of the prairie fires, which have burned over these plains for axes, nature furnishes the Western farmer with the very same ele- ments of fertility which the Eastern farmer has to buy and haut to his fields. When the drain of successive crops begins to tell on the Western wheat regions those lands will be found most lasting which are underlaid by clay, as is the case nearly all through Da- kota, and those lands will be especially long- lived below which the clay subsoil, as in- the James River Valley, is strongly impregnated with lime. c é if you ask a Dakotian what‘are the poor Jands in the Territory, he will point to the Bad Lands and the coteaus of the Missouri. The Bad Lands haye-been already thorough- dy described. The’ coteaus in Dakota arc high bluffs, miles wide, along the Missouri. They are grassed to the top. Between: them lie sheltered- valleys, in’ which are found patches of rents: i) 160 antes each of the very richest soil in the world. rings break out of the hillsides, and there is ane ance of ook ia the valleys for firewood. 4,1n Dakota every acre of. land along th Northern Pacific is -;. 5 a -G00D FOR, SOMETHING, i excepting only the sides of the buttes and the inaccessible parts of: the Bad Lands.

Minnesota and Dakota _ the Northern Pacific passes through Mon- tana, jldaho, Washington, -and Oregon. , At one\place on chis route’ is“found the only bad spot along the Northern Pacific from the ~Lakes.to the Pacific’ Ocean. West of Wal- July there isa stretch of land for about 100 urilds along the Colmabla River, which the accomplisheit engineer of the road, Gen. An- dersop, admits comes near fulfilling his can- “geption of the Desert of Sahara. - It is the only place where the road is not bordered by vegetation or timber. The sand flies before the wind. . Butat a distance of ten or fifteen miles of each side this desert is backed up by souté of the best wheat country in the world, 2 It_ik'a strong statement, but it is made carefully and by men who have made a thor- ough. and conscientious study of the whole ground. With the above exception, there is no waste land along the whole Ine of the Northern Pacific. Gen. Merrill, who recently.presided over the everlasting Whittaker court-martial in New York, has been stationed for years in Montana, and pronounces it unhesitatingly “BETTER THAN DAKOTA.” Northern Idaho, where the read crosses it, produces the best of wheat.9 Washington and Oregon are so rich. in their varied re- sources that Mr. Villard confesses that he bought the Northern Pacific on the strength of what it had there, without seeing the east- ern part of the property. ‘There is no Ameriean Desert, there are no sin the northern part of the West of aline drawn'through North Platte on the Union Pacific, Fort Harker,;on the Kansas Pacific, and Fort wrned,.on the Atchison, ‘Topeka & Santa there is 1,000 miles of «desert, till the mountain rauges.on the Pacific Coast are sed.

It rained at Gtendive, on the Yellowstone, the night we reached it. All through Dakota the farmers had had too uuuch rather than too little.rain. An interesting topographical fact accounts for the differences in the fertility of the plains in Dakota and those ‘in Nebraska Kansas. and the country south, This north- ern country is in reach of the chinook, or Japanese trade winds, which profoundly af fect the climate of Montana, A most im- Sportant difference of level exists between the northern and southern plains.

LDL Cleaning Out the Sutler: Detroit Free Press. The army Sutler was the soldier's best friend and worst enemy. He was looked upon as an extor- tioner, and therefore an enemy, and yet he was regarded asa friend who stood between the soldier and bunger. There were occasions when regimental wagons could not “get there,” but it was only On rure occasions that the Sutler's wagons could not, pull through, Itis true be asked a big price for hfs cakes, cheese, andcanned goods, but be bad taken big risks in following the regiment. All things considered, the Sutler did not deserve the reprouch bestowed upon his calling. He ran’ risks which only brave men take, und his expenses sometimes devoured his profits, large as thoy seemed. Very few of them made uy xreat amount of money, and scores of them were financially “ busted" by raids and robberics. x From trst to last ‘the Sutler was considered fair gume ror any one who could beat him, an when be could not be tricked he could be cleaned out. This latter process was the darkest mystery in army life. No one seemed to plan or auy to lead, and yet all seemed to understand, Ata given moment from twenty-five to 10 men would suddenly appear at the Sutler’s tent. or but, and go through him like a hurricane. Tho blow fell so quickly that there was uo dodging it, and the guards arrived too lato to’ make an arrest or save noything. At the remount camp at Pleasant Valley. in 1865, thirty men fell upon the Sutler’s cabin about five minutes after roll-call. It was a stout lox but, securely barred and bolted, and contuined $700 worth’ of stores. ‘The clerk, a young man of 19, slept within, armed with two Tevolvers. ‘There was grand yell, n crash, and all was over. In five minutes ‘from the ‘tirst alarm a guard was on the spot, but tou late. ‘The only articles left in the hut would not have sold for ‘The clerk was outside in his night- clothes, robbed of hisarms and cash, and cheeses, bags of nats, boxes of candy and cases of tobacco und canned goods bad disuppenred as if taken up by the wind, A-strict search of camp was at once begun, but not so much us a nickel's worth of the stolen property could be discovered.
