me hati, das nnn ie THE GOVERNOR'S Ww. IFE. David R. Francis. in St. Louis. A Sketch of Mrs. The Francis Residence Mrs. David R. Francis, the future mistress of the governor's mansion at Jefferson City, is the daughter of Mr. John D. Perry, 2nd has beena prominent personage in society in St. Louis since her girlhood. She possesses a handsome face and form and her unaffected, genial, well-bred manner possesses a pleasing effect on all who mect her. She is about 80 years of age, with dark hair and eyes, and, although compelled by her position as'a wife of the chief execu- tive of the city to entertain and go into society a great deal, she is com- pletely wrapped up in her six chil- dren, who are all boys ranging from a baby several weeks old toa hand- some lad of eight named Perry. The second son is Dave, after the mayor; : then comes Charley, Tom, Charlton | and the baby. It ia safe to say, however, that no lady in Missouri is better qualified to hold the distinguished position in official sofiety to which the election of her husband calls her. Mr. Sid- ney Francis, the mayor's brother, resides with the family in Vandeven- ter place. The Francis residence, though by no means one of the largest in the city, is certainly one of the most tasteful and fashionable St. Louis; everywhere a tone of qui- et elegance prevades it. The hall and staircase are broad and inviting; the woodwork is of carved mahog- any, ascending to the second floor. In place of the old-fashioned newcl post is a wonderfully carved mahog- any peacock with wings outspread. It was in this beautiful home that the chief executive of St. Louis and ~ his charming wife last autumn en- tertained President and Mrs. Cleve- land.—St. Louis Chronicle. homes in William's Australian Herb Pills.

Hawes, being told of the verdict and asked: “How are you feeling?” replied, “Mighty bad, mighty bad, of course.” His voice was steady and he looked squarely in the eyes of the reporter. He has lost color since his incarceration and care is plainly written on every line of his face, but no nervousness is apparent. “You have made no confession?” “No, Ihave not confessed any- thing and I will not make any con- fession. I have nothing to confess. “Have you anything you wish to say?” “Yes, I want again to aver my in- nocence.” “You must explain many things to have anybody believe your claim of innocence. You must shaw where you left your daughter Mayon Mon- day night and with whom—can you explain?” “I cannot talk—my lawyers tell me not to saya word. ButI want to say one thing: [ believe that something will transpire which will show my innocence. I believe it, and tell the world for me I believe ——” He stopped short, smoked vigorously at his nearly extinguish- ed cigar and glanced fiercely at the reporter. His eyes had a desperate even a demoniacal stare as he re- peated, “I believe it, I believe it.” The body of the other ehild has not yet been found, but the search for it continues.

Positive rev y tor those derange- ments, irregular » and weaknesses so common to womankind. The people who have for months xed to circulate stories con- cerning the president’s abuse of his wife are still in the ring, it would seem, and since Mrs. Whitney's inti- mation concerning the responsibility of Chauncey M. Depew and Senator Ingalls, interest has broken out afresh. Both the gentlemen refer- ed to deny that they have ever in any manner sanctioned the stories and it is possible that they tell the truth. It is wellknown and lament- able fact that the tongue of scandal is hard to trace. It has generally a very small beginning and grows in- to proportions by the passage it makes from lip to lip. Subtle, damning it goes its way and yet no- body can tell just how or where the seed was planted. The wisest thing that could suggest itself would be to keep utter silence in regard to it and even Mrs. Whitney would have shown better sense had she refrain- ed from a crusade against those she believed to be guilty.—Sedalia Ba- Zoo.

James against the Mis- souri Pacific railroad company for $25,000 was determined last night at 12 o'clock in the Vernon county court by the jury awarding plaintiff a verdict for $8500.

All the railroads will reduce rates from December 24 up to and includ- ing January 3. Most of the eastern roads will make special excursion rates to points within the 100 miles limit. H. E. Moss, general southwest- ern passenger agent of the Santa Fe railroad, will leave for Chicago ina few days to look over the field. An official from every railroad represen- ted in this city will probably partici- pate in the general meeting to be held in Chicago on December 18. The railroad men laugh at the in- terstate commissioner's lecture to the roads and add that the famous re- ply of Boss Tweed, “What are you going to do about it?” is what the railroads will put to the commission- ers. Said a prominent railroad man to-day: “The interstate commerce law is a dead letter and will have no effect upon the rate war in Chicago. The Pennsylvania railroad attempt ed to have the commissioners pro Come pn nounce the scalping of tickets a vio- | lation of the law, but they met with disastrous failure. The rate war will have to be settled by the rail- roads themselves. Itch, Marge and scratches of every kind on human or animals cured in 30 minutes by Wooltord’s Sanitary Lotion nis never tails.

To his own satis- faction, and, as he said, to the satis- faction of every practical mechanic who had inspected it, he explained that the machine was the only prac- tical one to do the work intended. The machine has only four key bars to operate 2,400 letters and char- acters and costs, its inventor says, less than a typewriter. Logotypes, or monosylables and parts of words are cast together, and an exhaustive study of the dictionary to get the most combinations of letters has been a part of the labor of the in- ventor. Secretary Crawford promised to look out for some Kansas City cap- italists to go in with some Denver men already interested and supply the money. The profits are to come from the sale, at a profit of $400 on each machine, of from 300 to 500 machines to every one of the 100,000 printing offices in the United States.

Marshall, Mo., Dec. 10.—About 4 o’clock this morning thieves caused a stampede among the mules at Sparks Bros.’ large barns in this city by removing the gate leading into the mulelot from its hinges and flushing the animals. About 70 es- caped through the gate,two of which were killed by an early west-bound train. All have been recovered but 10, which were, no doubt, taken by the thieves.
