Prettier weather could not have been wished and the reunion of 1887 will long be remembered by the Post of this city and those comrades from a distance. Letter From Leabo. Jefferson City, Mo., May 28, 'S7. Mr. ALLEN—Dear Sir: By per- mission of our Warden, I will once more subscribe for your wide-a-wake paper. I have been a reader of the Times for a great many years, and I feel lost without it. Please send it to me without delay and I will send you the money before long. Send the paper in care of D. W. Marma- duke. I suppose you would like to know how I am getting along. My health is some better at present, only I suffer a great deal at times with my back. I got hurt this spring and had to be carried to the hospital where I remained about two weeks. It will soon be one year since I ar- rived at this place, and I can say that T haven't had any trouble whatever. T have been kindly treated by all the officers. If any one comes down here from Butler this summer tell them to call and see me. Give my best re- gards to all inquiring friends. Yours respectfully, Joun T. LeaBo. The building boom has struck Butler very forcibly. The following houses have just been completed or are under way of construction, and many more are under contract. Geo. W.

Among the great number of friends | of the Tiwes in the county, none rank higher or hold a warmer place in our hearts than Alferd Miller, commonly known an “Uncle Alf.” He owns a large stock farm southeast of Butler and is blessed with plenty and to spare of this earth’s blessings. Uncle Alf never has anything good but what the printer comes in for his share—‘May his race increase.” This time a large ham, one of his own cure, was laid on our table Fri- day last, and we can truthfully say we never tasted sweeter meat. ie will accept our sincere thanks.

The boy was considerably elated over | his find and presented the pistol to his aunt muzzle first, with the re- | mark that he would give it to his | cousin. The words had hardly left |his mouth when by some means the | weapon was discharged, the ball ple. She was immediately conveyed to the residence of Harrison Fell where she died at about 3 o'clock in the evening. Mrs. Fell was a most estimable lady and the unfortunate occurrence is to be greatly regretted.

Below we publish resolutions of respect taken from the Palmyra Spec- tator. Rev. Browning is the Chris- tian minister who has but recently come among us and taken charge of the Christian church at this place: Palmyra, May 9th, 1887. To Rev. E. C. Browning: Dear Sir and Bro.—We, the un- dersigned, members of the Ministers’ Association, having been informed of your determination to leave Palmyra for another field of labor, desire to express to you in this formal manner our most sincere regrets that you have found it consonant with duty to make such a change of parochial work, and that our connection in the association, so happily formed and conducted, is to be severed. Influenced by the principle enun- ciated by the Master, praying that the entire brotherhood of his disci- ples might ever be at unity among themselves, even as He himself and the Father are one, you were promi- nently instrumental in bringing that society into existence, from which we have all derived much mutual benefit, and hope that that benefit will be reflected to the good of the souls aver which we are appointed to watch. For thls Christian aim receive our profound thanks. Invoking God's blessing upon your future labors in Christ Jesus, we bid you an affectionate farewell. J. A. WarnwriGHT, M. L. THomas, J. S.

Most of the farmers have their corn plowed over twice. Oats are looking well but the chinch bugs are playing havoc with them in some places. With plenty of rain we don't think the bugs will do any great amount of damage. John T. Tuttle has brought suit for a divorce from Cynthia Tuttle. Hello! George Hill! What are you doing there? Plowing corn? How long have you been plowing that eighteen-acre Well, sir, I commenced with the fenders on and piece? now I have taken them off and turn- ed the shovels to hill up the com and lay it by, for it is waist high. Say. Tom Lightfoot, do you know how long Sam Marshall has been acre piece of corn over crossways? “Well, George, I hardly know; I think he had the fenders on when he commenced, and I heard him say to-day he didn’t think he would get it plowed before it got too large to lay by.” We understand that S. C. Marshall is talking of trading his farm for plowing his twent some land in Texas. Our township Board has converted some of the public highways into pastures we understand. B. B. Marshall, J.
