Mrs. R. M. Foster, of Charlotte township died on the evening of the 25th with inflamation of the stomach after an illness of only a few days.

Stephens, of Ash Grove, a former citizen of this place, spent several days in the city last week on business, while here he called on the booming Trwms and renewed for an- other year. He informed us that he permanently left Butler, and would in future make his home at Ash Grove. Mr. Stephens was a good citizen and has many warm friends in this city. The Tiwes wishes him the best of success. This is presidential yearand every 4), democrat should stand by his colors, * allalong the line.

He has accepted a call as assistant in Trinity Parish, New York City, and will leave about Oc- tober 15th for his new field of labor. Rey. Brugler is a talented young minister and the Timrs is proud to see him reaping the reward he has so justly earned by close application and upright and manly conduct. Rev. W. A.

Nickell and Cassel Hale, assisted by the vaptains of the various clubs, in the following order: Drum corps, elabs in uniforms, clubs on horseback, speakers in car- riages, band, clubs and citizens, cit- izens in carriages, wagons, ete. The procession was the largest ever witnessed in Butler. Four bands were in line, viz.: the Virginia, Altona and Butler bands and drum corps. Distributed through the procession were flags, banners and appropriate transparencies. Among the mounted uniformed clubs that arrived in time for the procession and are deserving of spe- oialmention for their splendid ap- pearance, large numbers, good riding and orderly conduct, are the Deep- water, Charlotte, Homer, West Point, Plainview, Willow Branch and Alto- na clubs. At 2 o'clock Mayor D. R. Francis was introduced to the immense throng of people in the court house yard, amidst great enthusiasm, and held the attention of his audience for over two hours. He started out by complimenting the glee club, composed almost wholly of little girls, for the excellent manner§ in which they rendered several popular campaign songs. He paid a glowing tribute to the ladies and compliment- ed them upon the active interest and good influences they were exerting in the campaign. Next he eulogized our country’s flag, calling it God’s own banner and saying: that demo- crats had fought to preserve that flag the same as republicans and it requir- ed considerable assurance for them to attempt to use it as a campaign banner. He presented an able and forcible argument on the tariff. Made a comparison of the state ad- ministration of Missouri with that of her sister states, and showed clearly that the tax rates were much less than that of the republican states of Iowa, Illinois, Kansas, Col- orado and Nebraska; that Missouri's school fund exceeds them all with the exception of democratic Texas. Governor Francis made an able and eloquent speech, replete with facts and figures and interspersed with enough mirth to make it interesting. Mayor Francis was followed by the Hon. Champ Clark in one of his characteristic, funny speeches, which kept the audience in an uproar from beginning to end. He hit the re- publicans some very hard knocks in his happy fashion and declared that it was the great battle between giants and the people should not be drawn off with side shows and third par- ties. At night a grand torch light pro- cession was had followed by one of the finest displays of fire works our Flambeau has ever treated us to. To assist in making a noise a shot gun brigade was formed and Prof. New- som’s anvils kept up an incessant roar. Hon. John Lucas, elector for the 12th congressional district, delivered an able tariff address in the opera house to a large audience. NOTES. The Glee clubs, led by Mrs. T. J- Day and Mrs. Cook are deserving of special mention for the excellent songs rendered on the occasion of the grand rally. Marshal Colyer made a fine com- manding officer. Col. T. H. Crockett was the hand- somest man on horseback and looked like a brigadier. Marshal Mudd is an excellent rider and bore orders like he had served on staff duty all his life. Gen. Joe Shelby was in his ele- | ment as it brought back to mind fa- {miliar scenes, when he had led eg and school supplies can be found at | Many horsemen to battle. Col.

The committee on decorations, NOTHING PLEASES US better, than to see people manifest true in- I terest in facts. The way we sold Boots and |Shoes by the armful last week proves con- clusively that the thrifty, wide-awake far- mers are preparing for winter by outtitting themselves with first-class Boots and Shoes AT ACTUAL COST. If you have not already examined the grand bargains offered by us DO SO AT ONCE. We like to have the privilege of showing what we can do for you in the way of saving you ‘ALL THE PROFIT. Come prepared to buy Big Bargains and if you do not find us doing just what we say we can’t expect to sell you. Remember it is a mutual interest, our goods must be sold regardless of cost or value and you must prepare for winter. COME AT ONCE. R. WEIL & CO. L. A. WEIL, Manager. NORTH SIDE SQUARE, The large streamers and flags across the street, were highly praised by all present. The West Point Glee club, com- posed of young ladies in uniform, had a prominent position on the stand and assisted materially in tur- nishing music. For school shoes for your little ones, come and see us. We can save you from 15 to 25 per cent. Sam't Levy & Co. There are four cheese factories doing a profitable business in St. Clair county, near Rockville. The farmers for miles around deliver milk to them at so much per pound, and are making considerable money out of their cows.—Holden Enter- prise. An exchange hits the nail squarely on the head in this paragraph: “The man who impugns the motives of his neighbor for merely differing from him in politieal matters, or who attributes wrong motives with- out cause, is himself a fraud at heart and will bear watching. If men can not exercise liberty of thought and speech,then our so-called freedom is a snare and delusion ” The Tives takes pleasure in speaking a good word for the Gold- en troupe which played in our city Friday and Saturday nights. The performance each evening was highly appreciated by our people The whole troupe is composed of artists of rare ability, Harry Robin- son and Miss Lizzie Kendall being deserving of special praise, as both are stars in the profession. Mr. Golden the proprietor of the troupe is onejof the oldest theater managers on the road and though his hair is being whitened by the frosts of fifty odd winters he is still nimble asa boy anda gentleman in every sense ofthe word. The Truzs ex- tends its best wishes for the Golden troupe, and hopes it will puss this way often. Died. Little Edna, infant daughter of Jennie and George Ross, Sept. 28th, 1888, aged eleven months. She was loved at home with all the intensity of conjugal and maternal affections. Yet again we hope to meet her, When the dreams of life have fled; There in heaven with joy we’ll greet her, When the farewell tears are shed. Money! Money!
