At a meeting of the Rich Hill and Butler railroad committees last week, the work of securing the right of way on the old road grade for the K. C., Butler & Rich Hill road was divided as follows: Butler to work from the extreme limit of the old grade south to the north boundary of the county, the Rich Hill com- mittee to take the south end. The work of taking the right of way is progressing rapidly. We learn that it is Mr. Wilson’s intention to begin work immediately after all the right of way has been secured. ————————— We are glad to see it denied that Dr. Joseph Parker, of London. was called to fill the late Henry Ward Seecher's Pulpit. Dr. Parker is a highly educated, talented preacher, . great scholar and no doubt would perform the charge with great abil- ity. But we stop to think that this was Mr. Beecher’s church in every sense of the word. He took it in its infancy and brought it up to its present greatness. His own ideas were instilled into the foundation and throughout the structure until t was a part and parcel of the man, Mr Beecher emphatically American in his views, in his inter- course and daily walk and the man who succeeds to his life work should be an American. was The Kansas City Times, to discover the choice of the two great parties for president, addressed a circular to its correspondents in each county ia Missouri and Kansas, with in- structions to interview six of the teading men of each party on that question. The result was published \ Sunday and resulted in Cleveland ceceiving 261 votes out of a possible 270 in Missouri, and on the republi- | can ticket Blaine got 126 out of a i { } repre- | man” of | connected | prospecting | ST- LOUIS & COLORADO EXTENSION- From a report of the contemplat- ed extensions of the St. Louis & Colorado road by the Santa Fe com pany we copy the following: ; Route No. 2; Commencing at the most practical point on route No. 1, betwee en Versa lles, in Morgan county. ! and Cole Camp, Benton county, thence in a southwesterly direction through the counties of Mo: Benton, Henry.

Both of these gen- tlemen made the coal interests in Bates county a cureful study, the latter in the Mine Inspector number of years, and their testimony is to the effect that the richest coal fields, as to quality of coal and thickness of | vein, lays in New Home township, | through the very heart of which this road would pass from Butler to Ft.

Lieut. Goy. Morehouse Saturday issued a proclamation, offering a reward of $300 for the arrest and delivery to the St. Louis authorities of Wm.

It was later learned from 2 reliable source that the work of construction will not begin until after the meet- ing of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Directors at Topeka, September 5. when it is proposed to increase the capital stock $10,000,000. It is further stated that a large majority of this stock has already been It will be seen, amended charter is filed at Topeka, that the line from this city to Cha nute is not included.

Half an hour after his arrival he was placed under ar- rest by Marshal Logan, upon a warrant sworn out by Mr. Saulsman.
