A SENSATIONAL AFFAIR. A Former Butler Boy Uses His Pistol Rather Than be Cowhided. | «Aurora, Mo., June 4.--John D. | Porter, banker at Mt. Vernon, was , publicly cowhided last week on the i streets of his town by “Big Jane,” a notoriously hard character of that town. The affair had its origin in a slight misunderstanding or imagined injury over a financial transaction, and it is generally believed that the | woman in this case was urged on by | her paramour, a prominent business man of the town, a middle-aged man with an interesting family of almost | grown children. Other parties were | threatened with a dose of the same |medicine, the woman’ paramour agreeing to lend a helping hand. but all have taken flight and are now | hiding out to avoid her rage. Ex- |citement ran high and during its fever heat Arch L. Sims and William E. Wright, two well-known citizens, came together with weapons, in | which a shot or two was fired at the \latter by Sims without serious re- sults.” Earl Sims, brother of Arch, forms us that Wright went into Arch’s office and assaulted him with what Arch took to be a revolver, but which proved afterwards to be a monkey wrench, when Arch used his | pistol. in- Mrs Dr. Renick, left for Odesa, on a visit to relatives. She will be absent two or three weeks. Does advertising pay? It does; and here is a proof. A few days ago Sam'l Levy & Co., through the agency of one of their advertisements in the paper received an order from W. F. Britton, a former resident of | this county, but now living at Day- ton, Washington Territory, for a black worsted suit of clothes. It was not the suit of clothes that caught him, but the price, 15.

Readers of the booming Times, your attention is called this week to the advertisement of our popular and wide-a-awake merchant under the Palace Hotel, J. M. KeKibben. His stock of goods is not to be ex- |celled, in quality, quantity and cheapness, and he invites you to call and examine them for yourself. Mr. McKibben is one of Butler's best business men and the Times is glad to see him prosper. Dvn't fail when needing anything in the dry goods or boot and shoe line to give hima call. The local editor of the Tres one bright afternoon of last week took a drive around the city with the view of noting the improvements now being made, and was much pleased to see so many substantial residences in course of construction, as well as the valuable improvements being made to old ones. To one thus making observation it seems strange that more good buildings had not been erected be- fore this, as we were not able in all our drive to find a vacant house. Another thing worthy of mention is the amount of good resident lots near the business center of the town, which the newspaper man thought ought to be occupied with comforta- ble residences when they can be built at such small cost at this time. One plat of lots we especially no- ticed, and that is the remainder of Warren's addition near the resi- dences of N.B. Jeter and Thos. Smith. These are beautiful lots and it is wonderful why they were not occupied, being so near the bus- iness center, and so favorably locat- ed. Buton inquiry of the agent Geo. Canterbury, we learned that | several years ago while the pros- pects were bright for the building of a railroad through the east part of town these lots were withdrawn from sale with the view of locating the depot on them. and now since jthe prospect of that road being | built has vanished “as the rainbow vanishesamid the storm” j are again on the market and can be had very cheap. Our advice is don't go west but buy a lot somewhere /and build a house. The Rev. J. T.
