M. Osceola, Mo., Feb. 12.—The news of the appointment of Jessie S. Ball a postmistress of this place was met with chargrin by the republicans here and they are denouncing Sena- tor Wm. P. Sheldon. The appoint- ment was made on the recommenda- tion of Mr. Sheldon and with the assistance of S. S. Burdette of Wash- ington. Both are relatives of Mrs. Ball. Mary F. Ferguson the pres- ent incumbent, was appointed in January, 1888, and has proved a very efficient and accommodating official, liked and respected by both repub- licans and democrats. A short time after Harrison’s inauguration, when a petition was circulated by Sheldon among the republicans for the re- moval of Mrs. Furgeson, he met with a great many republicans who flatly refused to sign it. The Grand Army had recommended L. Conant for the position, and a great many republicans were in favor of the re- tention of Mrs. Ferguson until the expiration of her commission, but to no avail. Where the Leak Was. Mr. Billus (looking over his ex- pense account)—“Maria, we spent exactly $50 more than our income last year. We've got to retrench.” Mrs. Billus—“It wasn’t my fault, John, I didn’t lose $75 on the elec tion, nor pay out $40 in club dues, nor spend $65 for cigars, nor run through with $120 in three days at the races, nor indorse a note for $200 for a mere acquaintance and lose it, nor—" Mr. Billus (still looking through the expense account)—“None of these things account for that $50. By Jove! Here it is! ‘Subscription for pastor’s salary, $50!” Maria, we can't stand that! The preacher will have to get along without anything from me this year ”—Chicago Tri- bune. The lawyer inthe meantime had become counsel for a Mississippi railroad and had to appraise and settle all difficulties for the corpor- ation. One day as he sat in his office loutish Bill Brown came in twirling his hat between his thumbs and said in a wheedling tone: ‘I reckoa that ‘air bull is good for a pert sum, Cap'n.’ “Certainly, Mr. Brown, certainly; $250 couldn’t buy it of me if I still had ft in my posession.’ ‘Wall, Cap'n, that air bull was run over by yer railroad last night, and I reckon you'll see that they pay me $250 for it’.,.—New York Trib- une.

Austin, Tex., Feb. 10.—The board of regents met to-day and took some important action. There were pres- ent D. T. Wooten of Austin, pesi- dent; Prather of Waco, Brecken- ridge of San Antonio, Howard of Gonzales and Simpkins of Corsicana. The board elected a professor to fill the place of Prof. R. T. Hill, in the chair of of geology, lately resigned. The gentleman selected is Prof. F. W. Simmons of the University of Arkansas, and formerly assistant professor of Cornell University. The board received and accepted a cash check for $10,000 donated to the university for building mess halls for poor students unable to pay board. The money is given solely on one condition—that is that the donor’s name remain unknown and be not mentioned in any way in connection with the gift during his lifetime. The name of the noble, generous and yhilanthropic donor is understood to be known to one or two of the regents. The board had up the subject of the uni- versity lands in connection with the suits recently brought in El Paso by private parties, claiming school lands under the old Mexican grant. The agents of course havs no pow- er in the pemises, but they want the state govérnment to take action and defend the interests of the universi- ty in the lands sued for. Mrs. Vanderbilt Goes to a Ball. A few nights ago at 10 o'clock, Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt went toa ball. This is, of course, a frequent occurrence—indeed, almost a nightly one at this season of the year; but the manner in which they took their departure from the mag- nificent house on the corner of Fifty- seventh street and Fifth avenue was impressive. It would probably have startled the old Commodore had he been alive to see it. Exactly on the minute a big brougham, with the lanterns throwing a bright light far ahead of the horses, drew up with a clatter at the door, and a* footman jumped down, walked with ponder- ous dignity up the steps, rang the bell, turned on his heel, and took up his station beside the carriage door. A second footman opened the door, saw the carriage, and gave the word to another lackey, who doubtless conveyed the information to Mrs. Vanderbilt. The second man un- rolled a long carpet across the side- walk to the brougham door. Then he returned, stood on an upper step of the house, and a few moments later the doors of the hcuse were opened, throwing a flvod of light far across the street. The vestibule, which was revealed by the opening of the great doors, was considerably larger than the su- preme court room of the United States. It was tiled, hung with rich oriental stuffs, and tropical plants were placed in the corners. In the distance through the vestibule an- other marvelous flight of steps led to another door, and here the but- ler stood holding a portiere with great dignity and impressiveness. Presently Mrs. Vanderbilt, wrapped ina big fur coat and bundled in furs, appeared. A trim little maid lifted her train and gave a finishing touch to her wraps. Then Mrs. V. descends the steps with stately dig- nity, walked across the carpeted sidewalk and entered her brougham. The coachman was as rigid asa statue on the box, and the second footman, the third man or porter and the butler were upright and mo- tionless as wooden images. The maid had disappeared. Perhaps half » minute later Mr. Vanderbilt, looking ruddy, rich, corpulent and important, also appeared at the por- tiere and swaggered down the steps across the sidewalk. He had the air of a man who owns a hundred mil- lions or 80, and he was not ashamed to exhibit it. The footman slammed the door, jumped to the box and the horses started away. Then the sec- ond man rolled the carpet up, retir- ed within the house and the big doors rolled together. It was thus, with the help of six people and two thoroughbred horses, that Mr. and Mrs. Cornelius Vanderbilt departed from their home.—New York Sun. Short of Cash. Kansas City, Mo., Feb. 12—Col.

Keel and occupied by Frank L. Elledge asa family grocery. The building was located in the very center of the block on the north side of the square, and for awhile the entire block was threatened, but the fire was finally brought under control. A number of persons had gone into the adjoining building on the east, occupied by F. M. McDonald & Sons as a general dry goods estab- lishment, and were talking over the incidents of the fire and congratu- lating each other that it had been checked with so little loss, when suddenly there came a crash. The west wall of the burning building fell against the building occupied by MeDonald & Sons, crushing it in upon the occupants, burying them beneath a heavy pile of brick and rubbish and killing outright Mr. F. McDonald, the senior member of the firm, and William R. Jackson, the owner of the building. A number of other persons were in the build- ing at the time, among them two sons of Mr. McDonald, Ben and Al- len, and Mrs. W. R. Jackson and her son Moody. The two latter were quite seriously injured, but not fatally. The two buildings were valued at $6,000 and the contents at $12,000, and were only partially insured. The dead will be buried to-mor- row. Sold by Druggists and Dealers Everywhere, {ME CHARLES A. VOGELER CO , Baltimore, Ué. EQUITABLEt LOAN AND INVESTMENT ASSOCIATION OF SEDALIA, MO.
