From Wednesdays Dally. Late yesterday afternoon a strang er arrived in this city from the vi cinity of Amazonia, Missouri, and brought with him the story of the death of Nick Shue, one time resi dent of this vicinity and also of Lou isville where he had been employed in the stone quarries and in which capacity he was also engaged at Amazonia. Mr. Shue, who was a bachelor, was living in his own quarters near the quarries, the stranger states, and had at the time two men living with him and tbese men reported his death one evening of last week. The authori ties had the body buried a short time after it was reported. From the rather rambling state ments of the stranger it seems that Mr. Shue had deeds to several hun dred acres of land in his possession and the land it was claimed was in Nebraska, but after his death the deeds disappeared and could not be found and it is a question what coun ty the land is located. Word has also been received here by the Andrew Kaufman family a3 j to the death of this gentleman, he having formerly boarded with them while at Cedar Creek. It is desired I to get the address of a sister of the , deceased who resides in New York state and any of the old residents of the vicinity of Cedar Creek or Louis ville who might know the address are requested to get in communica tion with Miss Marie Kaufman so that the sister may be notified of the death. Relative to the land which it was claimed was owned by Mr. Shue, it was thought by the members of the family that if. he had title to land it must be in the vicinity of Moorefield, Nebraska, where he had resided for some time.
