It must be refreshing to Guiteau, to read accounts of the many hang- ings. that are taking place now-a- days. A Royal Arch Chapter has been recently organized at Eureka Springs, Ark., with C. P.

We will wager fee treats all around that Butter has more houses in pro- cess of construction and in) contem- plation, than any city of five thous- | and population inthe State. There isn’t the shadow of a doubt but that the people of Altona and Rich Hill and the surrounding coun- } try will take the amount of stock ap- portioned them by the committee. Set Butler down, too. We heard a gentleman say on! yesterday evening that he would | build right away if he could get the brick. He means what he says and has got the money, and don’t you! doubt it. | A bill has been ecd | greed upon by the waysand means committee of | the House ot Representatives at!

Critt8nden committed a big blunder when he concluded to con- vene the legislature in extra session, to redistrict the State. The wish, we suspect, is father to the thought. — Deputy Sheriff Hanks returned on Thursday from Miller county, Mo., in charge of one John Emery, who he arrested while there for complic- ity in the st | buggy of C. C. Peeler and others | last fall. This gang is being pretty | aling of the mules and | thoroughly used up, and great praise is due the people of Hudson town- ship and Sheriff Simpson and _ his | deputys for the dilligence they have | exercised in breaking up this gang of thieves. The cirenit court is meeting out justice speedily, but impartially to offenders. James Ray was tried Thursday, and the jury returned into court a verdict of guilty, and asses ed ns punishment, at three years in the penitentiary. Ray is an un- grateful fellow, as the proof showed, | he fell im with a Mr. Farris at Rich | Hill, who resides in Vi erngn county. | Mr. Farris had money and set ew up to Ray, and he got onthe outside of too much of the Intant Wonders | beve + and while in that condi- tion, Ray, it appears, took from him the sum of one hundred and _ thirty dollars.

The meeting still progresses sat the | Christian church with encourageing results. There is no city in the State whose people devote more of their time to religious worship than the people of Butler, and the result is. we have quiet, orderly city. We have no such broils and peace- breakings as we read of in other places. It is a rare occurance that men fight here or are disorderly, as the records of the Mayor’s and Mayistrate’s court will abundantly vever the law is vio- show, and wher lated its penaity is visited upon the offender swittly. As this is monument building time suppose one be crected to the mem- |} t Republican statesman, and pious inan Oaks Ames.
