Don’t forget R. A. Atkinson is still in the mng with a splendid line of groceries at bottom prices.

South side square. | The position taxen by the Trwes en this (local option) question is the same as that occupied by the Review, and is undoubtedly the ccrrect one, for the reason that there is bound to be more or less animosity engendered among the people during such a contest, which, if fostered by the newspapers on either side, makes the matter much more lasting and des- troys the influence of papers in a great measure for harmonizing its citizens in other matters of local in- | terest that may come up.—Rich Hill Review.

Mrs. Miller, an old and esteemed resident of Miller county, this State, died Wednesday evening quite sud- denly at the rasidence of her daugh- ter, Mrs. Dr. D. W. Shelton, in Deepwater township. She was on aj visit to her daughter, and was enjoy- ing usual good health until Wednes- day morning when she complained of not feeling as well as usual. She died the same evening, it is thought of heart disease. Her remains were taken to Miller county for burial.— Record. R. A. Atkison is downing the boys | on cheap groceries, if you don't be- lieve it cal! and see him. Under county organization last year it cost $1.325 to assess Vernon county. This year under township organization the figures will approx- imate $2,000. Asan economic meas- ure this shows a saving of nearly $700 in favor of the county organi- zation plan. We hear there is a con- siderable complaint, under the town- ship plan, of too bigh assessmerts; j and we learn a petition is being cir- jeulated in the nerth part of the county to have an election to do jaway with township organization. | On the presentation of a petition o! 100 tax payers the county court may fat any time grant such an election. of Butler.

We are in receipt of an excellent | copy of Munkacsy’s famous picture, “Christ before Pilate.’ The ori- ginal of this picture covers about 20 by 30 feet of canvass, the figures all being life size. It is beyond doubt the most wonderful and im- pressive painting ona sacred subject ever produced in the world, a state- ment that is sufficiently attested by the fact of its recent sale for $120,- 000 cash. This picture is given asa premium by the Central Baptist, St. Louis. J. K. Brugler wants 2 lot ot good farm loans, running trom 6 to 18 months. This 1s a good chance for tarmers tc get short loans, or sell short real estate paper. The matter of district Judge for the southern district of Bates coun- ty at the coming election has had but little attention, but we learn that the people of Papinville and east of the river are strongly in favor of G. A. Carbon, of Howard township. Mr. Carbon is one of the best men in the county, well qualified for the position and a democrat worthy of the name. He made the race last time but circumstances were against him and like many other good men stepped aside, submitting gracefully to the decision of the convention. We are not informed as to Mr Car- bin’s desires or intentions in the matter, but would be pleased to see him our next district judge.—R.

The entertainment given at the Lone Star school house in Elkhart Twp., on the 13th., for the benefit of the churches, was a grand success. | The exercises consisted of vocal and instrumental music, recitations, dia- | | logues, lectures and a drama, enti- | jtled “A Kiss in the Dark,” which | | was well played.

New Orleans, La,, January 25.— Considerable excitement was created yesterday at Pass Christian by the discovery of a pot of buried treasure. Colta Narcisse, a colored man was plowing in a vacant lot owned by Nicholas Buchert, when the plow struck a hidden object, breaking off the point. On looking to see what he had struck he found a curiously shaped jar, such as are still used in Mexico and South American coun- tries to hold water. The jar was broken and found to be nearly full of silver coin. They examined and counted the coin, and found 209 sil- ver half dollars of American coinage and two quarter pieces, ranging in date from 1795 to 1829. The value of the whole is estimated at $236. The remaining contents consisted of Spanish and Mexican piastres and coins, the dates from 1720 to 1829. As to how it got there, the most plausible theory is that it was buried by an old negro named Carlo, who was a slave of Mme. Azmar, one of the first settlers of the Pass. His cabin stood near the spot, and being a miser, it is naturally supposed that he hid his hoard in the ground about the year 1830. J. K. Brugler & Sen want all the schoo! bonds they canget.
