We are glad to announce to our readers that we have partially re- covered from the effects of the festi- val at the Ohio street M. E. church Thursday night. The Holden Enterprise and the J. D. are having a rough and tumble fight just now, about who shall have the C, & A. branch. Pitch in and make the fur fly. We enjoy the fight. A gentleman who was at the fes- tival at the M. E. church Thursday night says he will put Will Hupp and the local editor of the Times against any two men in Butler for eating. Postmaster Austin has put the postoffice in telephonic communi- cation with his residence. We will bet a ten dollar note that the post- master general of the U. S. A. hasen’t got one. Who takes the bet? Mr. Fisher bestowed a g Mr. Slayback yesterday (Friday) by taking out from the Recorder’s office a requisition for two of the old man’s daughters, Miss Jennie and Miss Emma. It is quite a relief these days to be relieved of two at once. Pul-bazk and sick are expénsive you The parties all Jive in Bates. The C. & A. Road is the most important matter that has ever en- gaged the attention of the people of Butler, and its importance ts appre- ciated by them. It we succeed in getting the road, and we will, with- out a doubt, in less than five years after its completion, Butler will be a city of at Jeast twenty thousand popolation and Bates county one of the foremost counties in the great State of Missouri. Finis Eads and Mr. Elmos favor on old know. The year just expiring has been one of the most remarkable in the world’s history. Events startling in their nature have occurred out of the ordinary course of things, and calam- ities have been piled one upon anoth- er like Ossian upon Pellion — Earth- quakes, volcanic erruptions, ocean disasters railroad collisions, severe drought, extreme heat, five comets floating about with caudal appenda- ges many millions of miles in length and the assassination of the rulers of the two leading powers on the earth, are some of the more notable happenings of the year that will tall into eternity to-night at 12 o’clock. The old year has glided away but the recollections of its horrors are left be- hind it. We publish in to-day’ s issue the prospectus of the great representative newspaper of the South the Weckly Courier-Fournal, edited by Henry Watterson, one of the ablest and most accomplished editors in the United States. As areadable, newsy, reliable, truth-telling newspaper, the Courier Fournal has no superior in the country. It is thoroughly Dem- | ocratic, and the open and fearless foe to robbery, polygamy and all the other evils that blights the prosperity | and honor of the country. and is the welcome visitor to a greater number | Mr. Miller, the proprietor, on Mon- | refitted throughout in good style, and | | the rooms will the side | | be spared that will contribute to the | comfort a | The bill of fare will <omprise the } by Mr. W. } ' 4 | | the energy and of households than any newspaper ; in the world.

Judge Waters, the President of the compa- ny could not at this time answer that | question himself with any degree of certainty. After the surve are | made the chief engineer makes his report to the board of directors, who decide on the route and order the lo- cation of the road bed. Until that is done no one can tell where the road will run. Don’t believe the croakers who say the opera house is not a certain- ty. We are in receipt of other formation concerning the south side the coming season, which in- boom in makes us feel safe im saying that the haif has not been told concerning Butler’s future. Let all the boys pull for their own side and keep the traces even on all corners of the square and Butler will become a symmetrical, well-balanced city, without reference to the /ocus ¢2 quo of post office, depot or other single incidents to civ- ny, in company with Mr. Clark of Fort Scott, called at the Ties office on yesterday (Friday) evening.— | From these gentlemen we learn that is being pushed rapidly south and that the party camped at or near the mounds, seven | miles northeast of the city last night and 1. all probability will reach But- ler this evening.

A week or so ago a fight occurred between a couple of young men at school. It is said they desisted soon as the teacher came to them | and told them to stop.

The Sheriff, turning to us said this is the jail, I will let you down by a rope it you desire it. We thanked him, and begged him to excuse us.
