T A * Last Saturday the community of arshall and vicinity were thrown Ghastly Horror. to a frenzy of excitement by thei nding of a man’s bedy hanged by eneck toatree. The body st discovered by a young med Wm. King, who in passing frough the woods one and. one-halt piles north of the fair grounds,found , brown woolen hat which appe be almost new. This natura discovered among a human body. Ha ty he notified the au- ities of what be had seen and a paired to the spot. Observation Axes were pro- “ felled, when it has tound that the body was in an yanced state of decomposition, the gzards and worms having already hegun to feast upon it. Nothing as found upon it to lead to its identification beyond the clothing and plain gold ring upon one of the lingers bearing the initials “‘F. S.’’ by Jacob Webber as belonging lo a German man named Fred schmidt, who had left Marshall the ;oth of august saying he was going iway. Betore leaving he left a note ith his landlady, Mrs. Scheaffe iequesting her to pay certain hills wed by him amounting to about $9 wt of tunds deposited by him to the ank and to retain the balance of his leposit, which was about $70, for her OWN use. It is not positively known if Smith ied at his own hands or by toul neans,as his body so hung in the tree to be supported by the limbs and could, had he desired and been mscious, easily have prevented angulation. Smith was by oc- upation a saloon keeper and ad- dicted to hard drinking. A bottie partially filled with whisky was found in one ot his boots, which hung on a twig near his head, having heen re- moyed from his feet. LATER. The body has been fully identi- fed as that of Fred Smith. He was was about 40 years eld—a quiet, in- eee man. On Friday night, fore he disappeared, he told Mrs. Sheaffer he had seventy doHars in the bank; that he was going away and might not return; that if she would get it and pay his debts— about nine dollars—she might have the rest. This was the last seen of him until found, as above stated. The body was much decompesed the srows having picked out his eyes and eaten up most of his face.—Sedalia Democrat. A New “Snap.” Oll City Blizzard. A chap came into the Blizzard of- fice this morning and asked the local explorer: “Did you get on to that snap ?’” “What's that?’’ asked the scribe, as visions of a good 1tem came danc- ing before his goggles. “Why, that railroad Didn’t you hear about it?’” “No; what was it?’” “That kid fake.
