Peculiar in its good name at home, which is a “tower of strength abroad,” peculiar in the phenomenal sales it has attained, Hood's Sarsaparilla is the most suc- cessful medicine for purifying the blood, giving strength, and creating an appetite.

At a primary election held in Wolf county, Aug. 24th, to nomi- nate candidates for the different of- fices for 1891, we see from pro- ceedings that C. C. Hanks, brother of our fellow townsman, W. F. Hanks has been renominated for sheriff. Mr. Hanks has held the office con- tinuously ever since the war. Come in and see what we have for a line of school supplies before pur- chasing. Gro. W.

He will be accompanied by his 1A Pram oe Miss Mabel, who will at- tend school at Jacksonville, Ill., the coming winter. Mr. McKibben and Mabel will spend a week in St. Louis. The faculty of Butler Academy is now complete, consisting of J. Me. Martin, Principal; Assistants, Alvin I. Reinhard, of Center Valley, Penn., Mrs. Violette H. Anderson, of Louis- ville, Ky. All of these teachers are graduates of high grade colleges and all are experienced managers and workers in the school room. James Wilde, and Messrs. Bow den and Sparks,of Spruce township, Bates county, were in Clinton this week for the purpose of purchasing an early variety of wheat. The two first named gentlemen secured wheat from Isaac M. Johnston in Deer Creek township. Mr. Wilde says his township will sow more wheat this fall than.for several years past.—Clinton Democrat. School bags and shawl straps at Weaver's. at noonday, lonesome, glum and sad, the flies were buzzing about him, led by a blue winged “gad;” not a customer darkened his portals, not a sign of business was there; but flies kept on a buzzing about the old man’s hair. At last in misery he shouted: “Great Scott! I'm covered with flies!” And the zephyr, that toyed with his whis- kers, whispered: “Why don’t you advertise?”—Olathe Democrat. He sat in his door The Record is now engaged in copying complimentary notices of General Mahone, the rebel brigadier, republican candidate for governor of Virginia. Bro. Aus.is it not about like taking a dose of “rough on rats” to be forced to support and laud the maz who turned his coat after four years’ of hard fighting to destroy the union? An extract of the article from the New York Press which is copied in the Record reads: “The republicans of Virginia have nominated their foremost man for governor, their ablest and most re- sourceful leader and the man who has the greatest influence with the colored voters. General William Mahone is a tower of strength among the most numerous element of Vir- ginia republicans.” Redmond Holzhay, better known as “Black Bart,” who has been ter- rorizing the citizens of Wisconsin by his daring deeds, was captured at Republi the 3lst inst. Holzhay was one of the most clever and dar- ing robbers on the American turf. His exploits in robbing railroad trains and stage coaches has been the means of heavy rewards being placed on his head by the postmas- ter general and the railroad compa- nies. He had no partners, and sin- gle handed would rob a train or stage with the same ease that he would hold up the proprietor of a country store. His last exploit was the robbing of the Gogebic stage, and the killing of one of the passen- gers and wounding of another. He is a German about 22 years of age and straight build. ee General Russell A. Alger, of Mich- igan, was elected commander-in- chief of the G. A. R. and Boston was chosen as the place at which to hold the next national encampment. Lane, is the only poultry and eg; man in Butler. The sudden and unexpected death of John A. Holcomb, of Toronto, Kansas, at one o'clock Thursday night at the residence of his son, P. H. Holcomb, on North Main street, was a great surprise to our citizens and the many friends of the deceas- ed, many of whom were not aware that he had returned to this city. He had not been enjoying good health at his Kansas home for some time and his son thinking thats who came to Barton county with a! deed to forty acres of land from the | owners who reside in Kansas. He} secured a $500 loan on the land, | paid off aschool mortgage of $250 and decamped with aclear $250 on the transaction. The real owners came along in a few days, pronounc- ed the deed a forgery, claimed the land and rejoices that the schoo] mortgage is lifted. The money loaner is out. The Lamar Leader tells of a man | change would be benificial went over a few days ago to see him and persuaded his father and mother to returm with him to Butler, they were also accampanied by their son, A. T. Holcomb, of Portsmouth, Ohio, who was visiting them atthe time. The trip was made with very little dis- comfort to Mr. Holcomb, and it was thought he was getting along very well as he was walking about the house conversing with the family and taking his meals regularly. On Thursday evening not feeling so well, when in invited out to supper by his son, P. H., remarked that he did care to eat. Mr. H. then jest- ingly said to him: “come out and see us go through the motion,” the old gentleman got up and and walked out and took a seat by the window. After supper P. H. and A. T. at- tended a meeting of the Commercial club returning at 9 or 10 o’cloek they found their father on the sofa asleep, and without disturbing him the two repaired to bed, P. H. going up stairs and A. T. taking a bed near his father. Nothing fur- ther occurred until about 1 o'clock, when A T. was aroused by the heavy breathing of his father, on go- ing to him he found that there was something serious the matter. He immediately informed the family and P. H. was dispatched for Dr. Boulware, but befere they arrived dissolution had taken place. The cause of his death was heart disease. Mr. Holeomb came to Bates coun- ty in 1869, where he has been a res- ident ever since, except the past two or three years that hehas been farm- ing with his two sons, Sumner and Charlie, in Kansas. The funeral services took place Saturday at 10 o'clock conducted by the | Masonic order, of which he has been a mem- ber for the past 50 years. He was born in Gallia county, Ohio, Aug. 16, 1817; received a fair education; farmed for a few years and then en- gaged in merchandising until he came to Mo. Was engrossing clerk of the Ohio senate in 1847-8; was the first republican candidate for Sheriff of Gallia county; raised a company of soldiers and went with them Shen- nandoah Valley, Va.; was then ap- pointed Provost Marshal and held the position for almost three years; was a zealous anti-slavery and tem- perance man.

Of course it is about electric street railways, but that does not hurt. It seems that a northern company re- cently put inan electric road in Nashville, Tenn., an old darky was showing it to his wife. “Look at it! Look at it!” he said, “Bress de Lord, these Yankees are great peo- ple. Twenty-five years ago they freed de niggah and now dey come down and free de mule.”"—Toledo Blade. Bes WINE OF CARDUI, a Tonic for Women. The initial step was taken here this morning in’ the organization of a humane society. The projectors are seeking information of the man- ner in which such societies are con- ducted at other places. The time has come in the history of Nevada when there will be some one to in- terfere and prevent the brutal treat- ment of those members of the hu- man race who are too weak to defend themselves and protect the dumb an- imals which are now so frequently and shamefully abused.—Nevada Mail. Mrs. Siceloff is in the city visiting relatives and friends, and that means everybody in Butler. She expects to leave for her home in north Mis- souri this week. She reports her family all well, and much pleased with their new home. X. \ > fromthe Texas cattle, have a_ corner while Rich Hill is sitting like a bump terial. McELREE’S WINE OF CARDU! for Weak Nerves There seems to bea disease among some of the cows of the town, which resembles the Texas fever. Hawking, the main street grocery- man, had a fine cow to die last week, which he valued at $50, she being a Jersey and short horn mixture. Sev- eral other citizens have had their J.S. cows to die lately, andit is supposed that the disease has been contracted which are shipped through here, throwing the straw from the cars while stopping along the track and our cows walk- ing along that way, catch this much dreaded disease. It is to be hoped that it will not become epidemic among our cattle—Clinton Demo- erat. = BLACK-DRAUGHT tea cures Constipation. Bates County Democrats. Cass Co. Democrat: Cass county enjoys very cordial relations with all the counties adjoining her and feels ajust pride in the possibilities of all of them, but for reasons potent to all, the people of Cass county feel that they are very closely allied to Bates county in all that goes to fos- ter the growing importance and grand future of Southwest Missouri. Our interests are, and our aims should be, one. Not forgetting, then, that there are sturdy men who live in these two counties of all po- litical faiths, but believing that cur- rent events are every day establish- ing the immortality of democratic principles—the doctrines taught us by Jefferson, Jackson, Madison and later, by that grandest man to-day known tothe arena of American poli- tics,Grover Cleveland,and seeing that our political brethren in other parts of the state are holding tariff reform meetings, we desire thus to come to the democracy of Bates county and ask them: Brethren, night?” will we havea grand tariff reform mass meeting of the two counties in the near future, somewhere—say on the Mormon Fork of Grand river, near the L. & S. railroad?
