In 1866 he came to Missouri and preached tor the first year in Wright City an! Mexico, afterward taking charge of the church here, remaining at his post for three years, when he was chosen district evan- gelist tor one year. He then removed to Nevada City, Mo., and was mar- ned te Miss Rebecca Shannon of this place. He was called to the charge of the church at Kansas City for one year, then he went to Paris, where he remained from 1873 until 1883, when he was recalled to Co- lumbia. For seyeral days his bedside had been visited by friends from Macon City, Mexico, Paris, Centralia and other cities. H:s funeral and burial will be conducted by Elder Alex- ander Proctor, ot Independence, on Thursday Morning. Johnson, the desperado who killed his employer Saturday, and who since that time had been intrenched in a berm vear Oakland, where he had resisted all attempts to capture him and had killed two and wounded several ethers who made the attempt, was finally disposed ot last night. The bare in which the desperado was conceeled was set on fire about 5:30 lest sight and fire was opened oa Johasen ond he was kilied, falling in the Mages. When the fire subsided the body was found ia « large pile of oats, nddled wb bullets. According to another account the desperade baviag reduced his am+ munitios to ome rovad at 3 o'clock this morniag,rather than be captured, set fire to the building, guarded it until the flames had gained good headway, and then blew his brains out with the remaining charge. The bern, with its entire contents and the body of the assassin, were completely consumed. The tragedy is one of the most desperate ever committed in the state and has created great excite- ment. Women’s Chances of Marriage. Offers of marriage fall to the lot ot nearly all women at some period of life; and the probabilities are, if women ot all ages took more trouble to make themselves really amiable and attractive, and at the same time were ‘somewhat scanter of their maiden presence.’’ so far as the men are concerned, their chances, even when they are comparatively old, would be greater than they now are. Even the most shy of men are averse to having women express themselves by their acts, if not in words, as willing to marry, and tiere | j | Steadman was a prominent and well to do man, and was_ proprietor of the Hillside creamery near Lyons. He had asked Johnson to get up Saturday morning and build the fires, and when the had refused to obey he had discharged him. For thirty-six the danng desperado—the murderer of C. H. Steadman, Peter Johns¢ m ind Edgar | to bring out boldness in a man. Everett—defended his life with desperation ot a fiend, and held a crowd of pursuers ut times number- ing 300 men at bay. THe could be taken alive, He knew that sur render meant certain death. Amply supplied with ammunition weapons, he defied every assault to capture him in his frail fort. Late last night it was decided to fire the barn. By some means a shed that was attached to the was ig- nited. The murderer, seeing the barn was on fire, sent into the crowd about twenty shots. Fire was open- ed on him with Winchester rifles from all sides, and it is supposed he was killed before he could get out. When the fire had subsided the remains were found in a large pile of oats which protected him a great deal, Both arms were burned off and a part of both legs. A part ot his head was shot off and many bul- let holes were found in his body. It 1s thought by some that he was wounded in his limbs before taking tothe barn or he would have en- deavored to escape. The body was raked trom the pile of smoking oats and buried ir an adjoining cornfield. The crowd was bent on taking the charred remains and feeding them to the hogs and the sheriff had hard work resisting the crowd, and accordingly the re- mains obtained human burial. The murderer was of light build and 5 feet 6 inches tall. He has been gomg under the name of Allen Wright.

VOGELEE CU., BALTINORE, BD, JOHN B. GOUGH'S NEW BOOK. PLATFORM ECHOES, Entirely new and splendidly illustrated volume s this crowning lite-work of the world-famous John B. Gough, Every one is familiar with the story ot his early lite, and ot his fescte from a drunkard’s grave, and how this once wretched and dispised sot became one of the most fa- mous men of our time and the best known speaker in the world. For seven years he stood amid the horrors ot delirium trem- ens, an abject slave to the bottle; and his condition and wretched appearance were such as to cause people to exclaim; “There’s the man who has been in hell.”” Since that time the good he has accomp- lished cannot be estimated. The rich and poor, the high, the low, the learned and unlearned, haye been alike thrilled and moved by his burning words. He has swayed brilliant audiences of royalty and fashion; has spoken in State prisons, jails, poor houses penitentiaries, retorm rection; to the < o audiences composed wh 1 and to diences numbering thousands of ch At his feet mo deaf, i monument ing the or dred and who were through res of one hun- d men and won ed to sign the pled; efforts.

Rev. Dr, Lyman Abbott, the eminent editor and divine has writen the story of Mr. Gough’s lite and career tor the book. It is John B. Gough in print. In it he gives to the world in permanent form his best thoughtson many topics, his most touching tales, his most stiring anecdotes and incidents, his most telling stories ot the deepest pathos and keenest humor. As a story teller he has never been equal- ed. The tenderness of his pathos and the spice ot his humor are irresistable. But whether he narrates a story ot mirth or of sorrow, it is always to illustrate great and living truths. Stranger stories are here told than romance ever dreamed ot, every one of them drawn trom real lite by a master hand. In every chapter he weaves in ancedes atter anecdotes, incident after incident, story atter story, and underneath them all lie “Living Truthes,” that stand out as bacon lights, He plays upon the reader's teelings as with an enchanter’s wand, at one time filling his heart with gladness, at another blinding his eyes with tears. At his bid- ding hearts are melted, and Stern, strong men, aswell as sensitive Women, weep tears of compassion, are aroused to in- dignation, or moved to uncontrollable laughter in spit of every effort to contoll their teelings, ‘ _This work is wh Not one word of it y andjentirely new. efore been nothing that ap- ‘Autobiography’? nt and Saadow"’ different work, y critics, and by the crowing lite-work to dispense w than not posse: not willingly bejlaid page is finished. ether bodks ace begun it will aside till the last VANES CASTORIA for Infants and Children.
