Burglars entered the boot and shoe store of Mr. Jacob FROEHLICH of this city lastFriday night.

Altogethereleven pair of the very best gents’ shoes and several pair ladies’ shoes were stolenwhich is so far positively known, as it is very difficult to find out the correctnumber on account of the large amount of stock on hand.

It will be perhaps remembered that in a kind of controversy with a man by the nameof McGINLEY in Saukville who calls himself “Veteran,” we had occasion to say thatwe thought him to be, aside from his crankiness, a respectable man. We regret thatwe were mistaken, as he has proved himself by his last communication in the STAR,to be a dirty blackguard who must have picked up his vile slang while he drove anarmy mule team.

No decent citizen, whether friendly to us or not, who has read that stuff will expectthat we should dirty our pen with a reply -- He is a “daisy” of a school teacher!

Last week we gotfrom two of them, some of the best saddles of venison we ever saw and our friend,Henry MORNMAN of Berlin furnished us with the choicest bushel of cranberries. ToMessrs. Gustav PREUSSER and FERNEKES of Milwaukee we are indebted to a fine lot ofmallard ducks, shot by them in the Horican Marsh. We shall have a high old time indisposing of all these good things. Many thanks to you old friends!

ANOTHER OF THE OLDEST SETTLERS IN THE TOWN OF MEQUON DEAD
On last Saturday morning at 3 o’clock, Henry HAYSSEN of Thiensville breathed hislast. The deceased was born June 30th, 1815 in the Grand Dutchy of Oldenburg andcame to the United States in the year 1839, settling in the fall of the same yearin the town of Mequon, where he, in company with John and Edy THOMSSEN and the lateEdward H. JANSSEN, friends and companions who emigrated with him, bought a fractional80 acre lot from the government situated on the East bank of the Milwaukee riverbetween Thiensville and Mequon.

After the arrival of the late Henry THIEN, who purchased the present water power,he built for him the first mill, since which time he has steadily resided at Thiensvilleuntil the time of his death. He was a carpenter and joiner and one of the best workmenin his profession. Over forty-three years ago, he made us some furniture which wehave yet in use. In early times and while residing in Mequon, we were the almostdaily companion of the deceased and the other young men who came over with him, andmany were the pleasant hours we spent in their company, being all pretty much ofthe same age. Later the deceased was married to the sister of the late Henry THIENwho survives him. There were no children born to the couple. All who knew our departedfriend will bear witness of his excellent character and goodness of heart. He wasburied yesterday afternoon, followed to his final resting place by a large concourseof relatives and friends. May the earth which has received his body prove a lightcovering to him.

THE INDIAN SCARE IN 1862
No person who was not an eye witness to the great Indian Scare in 1862, can haveany idea of the terrible fright with which the people were taken of an indian massacre.This scare extended from and through Manitowoc County along the lake shore countiesto Milwaukee. People were fleeing from the imaginary foe for their lives to Milwaukeeand there was an uninterrupted stream of fugitives in wagons, on horseback and onfoot, night and day on all the roads from the north leading to the city. Even thepeople lying on the outskirts of Milwaukee ran into the heart of the city. Chestnutstreet and neighborhood was blockaded with the fugitives and with such householdgoods that they could gather up in a hurry before the indians would murder them.Cedarburg made no exception but the people in the village and the farmers aroundhere were at least as badly frightened as others.

Farmers came rushing in here bareheaded on bareback horses, reporting massacres in their immediate neighborhood, the burning of the Catholic church south-west of thevillage and lots of other improbable reports were received by fugitives. Many ofour most prominent citizens in the place gathered up their children and the mostvaluable things they could get in the hurry and made a rush for Milwaukee. Therewas no use of remonstrating, all seemed to be crazy and seized with a panic for whichno explanation could be given and which still remains a mystery to this day how hundredsof people lost all control of themselves being panic stricken and only seeking speedyflight. Among the members of our Cedarburg fugitives were two gentlemen who are yetalive and whose names we do not care to mention, who returned the next day from Milwaukeeas far as the Brown Deer tavern, but rushed back immediately reporting every thingburning in Cedarburg and the people who had remained being murdered by the redskins.Of course there was not an indian within a hundred miles. HILGEN & SCHROEDERmill was to be converted into a fort station and those who had remained were puton guard duty around the village, keeping up bright watch fires during nights, neverthinking that this would show to the Indians their exact positions. The 26 Wisconsinregiment was then nearly organized at Milwaukee and the representations of the fugitiveswere such that the Governor of the State ordered two companies A and L to Cedarburgto protect what little property and what few lives the indians had spared in theirraid!

The companies marched all night and arrived here early in the morning.

At the late reunion of the survivors of the 26th regiment in Milwaukee, the wellknown poet Anton THORMABLEN, who formerly resided in Thiensville, read a poem describingthe first action of the two companies and their reception in Cedarburg. We may addthat we came near being mobbed while ridiculing the fears if the fleeing people andtrying to stop a few vehicles in order to remonstrate its inmates upon their foolishand inaccountable fear.

DISTRIBUTION OF BOOKS BY THE STATE

That the distribution of books by the members of the legislature to such of theirconstituents as they may think will read them, does some good is admitted, and theregret of members is that they do not receive enough of these documents to supplyall who will appreciate them.

This deficiency has often been the cause of making enemies, but it cannot be helped,the member only gets a certain number and must do the best he can. Years ago we hearda member of the legislature say, that he did not send a single paper or documenthome to any of his constituents, because he made more enemies than friends by notbeing able to supply all. He may have been right, but it was no excuse for not sendingout these documents as far as they would go. We did so last . . . (unreadable portion). . . of thanks which were not at all necessary for doing simply our duty. Last weekwe got one of these acknowledgments from Mr. N. E. BECKER of Fredonia, a portionof which we publish in the interest of fairness. He says:

“Whenever I had spare time, I spent it in perusing those books and found in themso many items of general usefulness, that I cannot delay any longer to render youmy best thanks for them, which I hereby express, because these books proved bothbeneficial and interesting to me.

I had long sought some work on silos and ensilage here I found what I wanted. I builta good silo this summer, 20 x 30 feet and nearly 19 feet high, holding nearly 200tons of ensilage -- but had only enough to fill one-half. The building is frame,studding 8 inches with tar paper and board on the inside, double board with paperbetween on the outside. I have never seen one before, and was only led to build inthat way through the contents of the Agricultural Report.”

SAUKVILLE
(From our correspondent)

Aug. SHILLER who was employed as cheese-maker at Hilbert the past six months hasreturned home.

Among the many outsiders who attended the social dance given in WILSON’s new hallof Thanksgiving Eve, were noticed Misses Bertha ERLER and Katie RAU of Newburg.

The raffling of horses (old stagers not fit to winter) is becoming very monotonoushere. Parties with such a contrivance ought to be ignored especially by our businessmen for they will surely be called upon not for the sake of the “quarter” but toroot out that nuisance. Those who saw how things were carried on at the last onethat took place here, cannot but comply with the above.

Miss Katie BACK of Grafton is visiting in this village.
