The first freight train over the Mo, Pacific railroad since the strike pass- ed down the road Friday. It con- sisted of an enyine and five cars loaded with government supplies, under control ot Deputy U. S. Mar shal John P. Willis. A treight train was wrecked near Sedalia last week and three or four persons on the train were badly in- jured. One man hadhis arm broken and another his leg. The cause of the accident is laid at the door ot the strikers and three arrests have been made. ——— J. K.

Sam Jones is waking up the natives over in Chicago. Here is the democratic city ticket: South ward, J. R. Jenkins; North ward, Albert Badgley and J. W. McVeigh. Better nominations were never made in the selection of alder- men for Butler, and they should re- ceive the democratic vote of the town without a scratch, Everybody vote the democratic city ticket this time.

The familiar tace ot Henry Miner, known and liked by everybody in town, will be seen in Butler no more for ever, as his spirit took its flight Thursday mghtlast. As Henry was a professional house renovator his valuable services will be sadly missed by a score of good housewives this spring. John B. Wolfe, editor of the Cali- fornia, Mo., Democrat, spent a tew days in the city last week visiting relatives, and in company with his brother, M. L. Wolfe, gave the Times a pleasant call Friday. Coun- ty pride makes us say M. L. Wolfe is the best looking man, but we know we lie when we say it. W. W. Chapel, of Appleton City, has been appointed post trader at the San Carlos Indian agency. | The Holden Enterprise came to us last week with a detailed exhibit of the financial condition of Johnson county. The next regular meeting of the Bates county Medical Society will be held in Butler Tuesday. A full attendance 1s desired. We hope our farmers will go to work this season with a will, and be tewarded by big crops and good prices for all they raise. Go to work democrats and repub lcans and elect Badgley, McVeigh and Jenkins, and the city of Butler willbe in good hands once more. The yard and trackmen on all the roads leading into Kansas City struck for an increase of wages the first of last week, aad inside ot twenty-tour hours a meeting of railroad men was had and the differences compromised Hoxie could have done the same thing and sayed the trouble and an- noyance of this long and ternble strike, Let us settle the electric light bus- mness by ballot. Then if the people want to accept Mr. McFarland’s 4 Proposition they can say so by their Votes, The polls will be opened Tuesday at the west school building tor the election of two directors and to vote & 25 per cent. additional Jewy to run the schools next year. The court house builders over in Henry county don’t seem to be get- ting along very well with the project of their fitty thousand dollar build- ing. Their architect and builder, Edbrook, of Chicago, seems to have gone back on them. If the people of Henry county want a Chicago mar to build them a court house, to secure success they don’t want to bind him too high im contracts. Elder Mountjoy, one ef the ablest ministers of the Christian church died ot his home in Columbia on the 24th inst. We publish an account cf his death in another column. If the asylum now in course of erection, shows up as well after com- pleted as the electrotype ot the butld- ing in the Nevada papers, then in- deed will it be a magnificent struc— By a recent act of the legislature it is made a misdemeanor for fruit tree men or their agents to misrep- resent any fruit or ornamental tree for the purpose ot deceiving or de- trauding the purchaser. The law is a good one as it will protect the nur- sery men who do a legitimate busi- ness and punish the shysters who live by fraud and deception.—Blue Mound Sun. A similar law should be passed in this state, Don’t forget that the school board have asked an additional levy of 25 » Per cent. to run the schools next Year, and that the same will be voted ‘0n at the west school building next Tuesday.

G. alderman Smith should re- sign and let us make the ticket com- plete by putting a good man in his place. The democrats have nominated a splendid ticket tor city aldermen and it should be elected by a large ma- jority. Dr. Talmage, in an interview, strongly tavored alcompromise of the strike. The doctor’s head is level | on almost everything. There was a case of malpractise betore the circuit court at Osceola last week, and the Sun says the doc- tors present were thicker than fiddlers in sheol. Clinton yoted herselt a third class city last week. As it only requires a population of five thousand people Butler can do the same thing by tak- ing a census ot the city. The business men of this city should organize a board of trade. Nothing like being up with the times. It takes enterprising men to make a town, therefore, let us have a board trade. The telephone line between this city and Rich Hill has again been put in operation. The general office can be found in Prof. Weaver's store under Palace hotel. Mrs. W. G. Womack left for Mt. Sterling, Ky., Friday mght, to spend a couple of months visiting her par- ents. The 1imzs with her many friends wish her a safe journey ana a pleasant visit. With extreme pleasure we note that little Mable Jenkins, who has been so seriously sick, is og the high road to recovery. A few more days, with no back set, and she will again be up and about. Miss Mollie Dimmitt, who has been visiting her sister, Mrs. J. R. Davis, in this city, the past two months, left tor Kansas City Satur day morning; from there she goes to her home at Columbia, Mo. W. H. Payne has sold his farm a tew miles from town, and will re- move into the city Saturday. The Times welcomes him and his estim- able family to the electriccity. Ina few days we will initiate him in the gardners grange. The newspapers should not get Congressman Stone, of Kentucky, and Congressman Stone, of Missouri, mixed. They are two different stones. When the Kentucky Stone makes a big speech on the silver or any other question it should not be placed to the credit of Missouri Stone, The Butler gun club has been: ad- mitted into the State Sportsman’s Association, and will shoot for the state medal at Jefferson City, May zgth. The Butler club is composed of a aumber of crack shots, and we predict our boys will bring home the medal. Obed Beardsley, aged about eighty years, living about tour miles north of Osceola, committed suicide by shooting the top ot his head off with a shot gun Thursday of last week. He had been a great sufferer from neuralgia, and the rash act is attrib- uted to that. We have been led to believe for the past two months almost, that the college at Adrian was assured, and that by this time work would have been commenced on the building. But by reterence to last week’s Ad- vertiser it would seem the matter is net yet an assured tact, and Atdrian may yet lose the much talked ot college. It is too bad and the good people of that town should wake up to their interests. For the past year we have tre- quently heard the wish expressed, by leading republicans throughout this senatorial district, that Hon. Harry W. Grantly, of Appleton City, would consent to allow the use of his name as a candidate for senator from this district.—Appleton City Journal. Ue really ‘‘consents’’ to make the race, doeshe? Well, well, a chronic office seeker actually ‘‘con- sents’’ to allow the use ot his name. What a marvelous sacrifice Brother- in-law Grantley is making to please the people.

Married: In Butler, March 22, by ’Squire D. G. Newsom, Richard Miller to Miss Henesey. Mr. Miller is the son of Alfred Miller, one ef our most prominent and wealthiest | 7 tarmers, living three miles south of : town. The groom has just returned trom Colorado, where he had been engaged in the mining business and we understand was very successful, having sold his claim before leaving for upwards thirty dollars. The Wedding Anniversary. At end of Ist year comes the.... 30th year. 40th year. 50th year. 75th year.... +» Diamond ot thousand The democratic central committee ot Henry county met at Clinton Sat- urday, and adopted the primary sys- tem of nominating their county tick- et by a large majority. The elec- tion will take place the 2gth ot May. The same day the democracy of Bates will meet at the court house in this city and nominate a ticket for this county. Dr. Jas. H. Harper, ot Adrian, and about half of the coon popu- lation of this city have locked horns over a misunderstanding in regard to wood chopping, and have con- cluded to settle their difterences before Squire Newsom on the gth ot April. The doctor will prove himself a good one if he can down the coons of Butler on the witness stand. Bates county has seven announces ments of candidates tor sheriff, six for recorder, five for county clerk and seven for county judge. Alto- gether there are thirty persons an- nounced as candidates tor the various offices. Evidently Bates county is largely populated by emmigrants trom Ohio.—Osceola Sun. Old Kentucky 1f you please, and the rea- son we have so many candidates is to give the democratic party of this county an opportunity to take its choice, and pick the strongest and most competent menfor the offices to be filled. J. H. Crow, of Spruce township, asks recognition at the hands of the democratic party for the office of Recorder ot Deeds of Bates county. Mr. Crow is a young man of grit and energy. He has lived in Bates county for seven years and has gained the respect and confidence of all with whom he has come in contact. If a man may be judged by what his neighbors say of him then Mr Crow 1s indeed an exceptional young gen- tleman. He is well educated and if elected to office would take pride in keeping the records neatly and cor- rectly. I. W. Baird always had a good show, but the one this year excels all previous efforts. His enteriainments never deteriorate, but like good wine, improve with old age. This fact was fully demonstrated last night by the ovation he received from our amuse- ment-goers, filling the opera house in every nook and corner. As for the programme, there is not a look, act or gesture that we would desire changed; everything 1s par excell- ence. It Baird’s Minstrels are not the best on the road they are certainly the best that come to this city.— Providence (R, I.) Daily News. This troup will play in the opera house Monday night, April 5th. ani Cee es The remains of Mrs. Amanda Hoiderman, wite ot Jud Holderman of this county, who died in Texas Tuesday of last week, whither she had gone in quest ot health, being a great sufferer from the most dreaded ot all diseases, consumption, arrived in Butler Friday and were laid to rest by the side of her two brothers in the family burying ground on the old Giass farm, about three miles east of'this city. Died: Little Tom,son of F, M. and Kate Woods, March 20, 1886, azed five years. He had been suffering with a cancer the past six months. Saturday the hand of death was laid upon him and he passed gently away. Little Tom was a bright, affectionate child and was loved by all who knew him. The bereaved parents have the sympathies of the entire community. Angels’ wings have borne his spirit To a pure land above, Where the blest torever inherit All the Father’s holy love. E- Sam’l Levy, jr., of the firm ot Sam’) Levy & Co., of this city, sail- ed from New York City for Liver- pool, England, on the steamer Ser- via, of the Conard ‘ine, Saturday at 2o’clock. He goes for the benefit of his health, which has been very poor for some time. While im St. Louis spending a week or two visit- ing relations and friends previous to starting on his voyage to Europe, he had made to order an elegant gold watch and chain, which he presented to Sam’! Levy, sr., in Chicago just before his departure as a keepsake. The watch is a beautiful piece of mechanism. The outside of the case bears the monogram “S. L.*’ hand- somely engraved, and on the face under the hands 1s pesfectly photo- graphed Mr. Levy’s two children. The gift is highly appreciated by Mr. Levy, and justly so, as it is a magnificent present. Sam’! Levy, presideat of the Big 7. who has just returned from the east, where he has been to buy goods, spent a couple of days ia St. Louis investigating Butler’s chances for the St. Louis, Kansas City and Colorado railroad, said, while he did not see President Tiernan, who was out ot the city on business at the time, he conversed with a number of the most prominent business men in the city and they, with one accord, af- firmed that the road would undoubt- ly be built, and tnat Butler was one of the projected points and would, | beyond doubt, get the road. This} should be gratifying news to the people of this county, as it comes trom a reliable source. Mr. Levyis greatly elated over the interviews he had with the business men of St. For Sale. Louis and the encouragement re-| House with 5 rooms on E. Dakota ; hoo! house.
