Dr. Walls is one of the very best doetors in Bates county and the management made a wise selection in filling the position made vacant by Dr. Boulware’s misfor- tune. Jim Starr Dead. Fort Smith, Ark., Jan. 26—Jim Starr, a noted Cherokee horse thief and desperado, who was shot by a United States deputy marshal near Ardmour, I. T., last week, is dying of his wounds, in the jail hospital of this vity. He was the husband of the famous female bandit, Belle Starr. who was ussassinated a year ago while riding along the road near her home. Mr. Richard Gentry, General Mavager of the Kansas City, Neva- da & Fort Smith Railroad, was in Hume Saturday perfecting legal business in regard to the new rail road. While here he remarked to a Te ephone reporter that the com- pany had to buy the entire right-of- way through Jackson at the rate of $24,000 to $30,000 per mile, and that he and five others had invested $85,000 apiece in the road. Healso assured the people here that they would undoubtedly secure the new road.—Hume Telephone. M. Neves, of this city, has return- ed from Salem, Kan., where he has been on a junketing tour. He re- ports that cattle are dying in that place at a rapid rate from eatirg musty corn; that a man in that vi cinity, one night last week, lost twenty fat hogs by being frozen to death; and finally, that ina grove near Salem, Coffey county, is, he thinks, the roosting place for all the crows in Kansas, as thousands and thousands—not hundreds, but thou sands and thousands, he says—of these pests may be seen there every evening.—Pleasanton Herald. Judge J. B. Gantt for Supreme Judge. In a recent interview with Judge J. B. Gantt, of Clinton, he had de- cided to make the race for Supreme Judge, and that he would give all the time he had to spare outside of his law practice to making the can- vass. Judge Gantt is an able jurist thoroughly qualified and would be an honor to the state or bench. His fidelity to democracy is unquestioned. He has served as circuit Judge with distinction, ahd made a gallant race for the congressional nomination in this district against Col. Stone in 1886. Judge Gantt would be an honor to the state on the supreme bench and the Democrat bespeaks to the democracy of the state their consideration in his behalf. Honor him whom honor is due.—Montrose Democrat. Fatal Shooting. A terrible accident occurred yes- terday afternoon near Camp Branch whereby one brother was the cause of the almost instant death of an- other. William and John Hastings, sons of S. L. Hastings, a well known farmer of that vicinity, were hunting rabbits near their home. The elder boy was about twenty feet in ad- vance of his brother and carrying his gun ready for instant use, when a rabbit started up immediately in front of him and ran around the boys. He turned to get a shot at the rabbit and by some means the Samuel W.

Davis, it appears, had rented a part of the Russell farm and had failed to pay the rent and W. K. Russell, the administrator, had that morning told him not to go on the premises to get the straw. Enos Russell and his younger broth- er, Levi, went to the stack where Davis and Bass were andafter a few words were exchanged Davis shot Enos down. He then started to this city, and, meeting Constable Phil lips, of Wilson township, on the way, he surrendered and the two came on together and Davis was lodged in jail. He gave the pistol to Phillips and told him that he fir ed two shots at Enos, but claimed that he did it in self defense. Russell was unconscious from the time he was shot until he drew bis last breath about 4 four hours later. He leaves a wife and two little chil- dren. His wife was Miss Julia For shoe. Franklin Davis also hasa wife and little children. Both men were born and raised in this county —Springfield Express. “OUI for Weak Nerves Virginia Items.

Just previously Garrett kissed his wife and children and left the jail build- ing without giving the slightest in- timation of his intent. Their first knowledge was obtained by his wife going to the barn upon hearing the report of a pistol, where she found her husband prostrated on the barn | floor with the pistol by his side The only explanation for the terri- ble deed is despondency, occasioned by a charge that he had, for a mon- ey consideration, permitted the pris oners in the jail to escape about two weeks ago, which statement has no foundation in fact and is discred- ited by every good citizen. He leaves a wife and seven children, the oldest is about 14 years of age.

After an absence of several weeks we again come to beg space in your valuable paper for a few items from our burg. Miss Kate Alexander, who has been visiting in Marshall.

Philip Fenton is lying very siek with pneumonia. | Miss Maggie Roach, of Hamilton, iMo., is visiting her step-mother, | Mrs. R. E. Beattie. Miss Fannie Alexander is suffer- ing from a very severe attack of la grippe. Mr. and Mrs. W. I. Hardiman lost au infant daughter the first of the | week with lung fever. Miss Sallie Black is visiting in Clay county. This accounts for the fact that Will Davidson’s buggy has not come into the blacksmith shop for repairs lately. The MeNeil schoJl closed last Fri- day. The patrons express them- selves as well pleased with the man- ner in which their teacher, M. E. Trowbridge discharged his duties during the four months that he served them, and wish him unbound- ed success in future. A quiet wedding took place in our immediate neighborhood last Sun- day, the contracting parties being Mrs. Chas. Harper, of Cass county, and Miss Alice Balgum, daughter of our neighbor, Thos. Balgum, Rev A H Lewis officiating. We trust that the future has many blessing in store for them. Mr. Ed Wright went to Adrian to day to meet his sister, Miss Fan nie, who, we understand, will remain several weeks in our town. We hope our young folks will exert themselves to make Miss Fannie’s stay among us a pleasant one. Rover. Try BLACK-DRAUGHT tea for Dyspepsia. Public Sale.
