Irwin, of Post Oak, Mo., was in the city last week, attending Presbytery. Peter Lane left Tuesday morning for LeRoy, Kansas, and will be ab- sent until Friday. Rey. Logan, pastor of the U.

W. W. Graves and D. H. Hill were in Jefferson City Saturday. Mr. Graves went on legal business. Dell Welton, who was again on the sick list we are, glad to note is up and able to attend to his business again. Mrs. John Ludwick presented her husband with a fine boy Saturday, and John is just too happy to be contented. Sam Walls has moved to the coun- try and will try his luck farming this summer. The Times wishes him good success. Board of Equalization met Mon- day with all members present. We understand there is considerable bu- siness before the board. Quick Meal gasoline stoves have stood the test of all competition and have neyer found an equal. A. L McBrive & Co. W. F. Carter, democrat, was elect- ed mayor of Clinton on the Ist. Mr. Carter isa buisness man and will make Clinton a model officer. The Australian system of voting, receives the highest praise in Clin- ton and Nevada, where it was tried for the first time in this state April 1st. Mrs. A. Henry and two sons, who have been absent from the city the past winter visiting her parents at Baldwin, Kansas, returned home last week. T. F. Butler and Miss Ida Wright, both of this city were umted in mar- riage on the 3rd inst, at the resi- dence of Jas. Deaton, Rev. Baker officiating. Hon. H. Clay Ewing, of Jefferson City will be a candidate for supreme judge. Judge Ewing is a man of fine legal attainments, of high moral character and worthy in every re- spect the high office to which he as- pires. It’s just a little bit cheeky, to say the least,for an independant daily to dictate the policy to be pursued by a democratic mayor. It would have looked a little bit better for the dai- ly to have spoken plain before the election. Thursday evening Ex-marshal Trickett wheeled his successful op- ponent, Marshal Paul S. Dickerson, around the square in a wheelbarrow to the great delight of the small boy and amusement of all who witness- ed the novel procession. Rev. Jesse Grider, D. D., of Bowlingreen, Ky., spent several days in the city last week attending Presbytery and looking after the in- terests of the C. P. church college, of Tenn. While here he was the guest of his old friend, Dr. Boyd. The new board of aldermen were sworn in last Thursday evening and Alderman J. E. Arnold elected chair- men of the board. City attorney W. W. Graves was elected city clerk by a vote of five, the three aldermen elected on the citizen’s ticket voting for J. H. Norton. Gen. Shelby and I. N. Yates, of Elk Heart township, were in the city Monday, and took home with them a load of fruit trees. General Shelby said there had been no plow- ingas yet for corn,as the farmers had been busy sowing oats and flax. He said he had planted about 150 acres of flax and would sow fifty acres more.

Albert Sells, a prominent young photographer, of Appleton City and Miss Della Welch, daughter of Sam’] Welch, were married at the home of the bride’s parents on Ohio street yesterday evening. Immediately after the ceremony the young couple left for their future home in Apple- ton. The democratic ticket in the city was elected by a good majority; the school supervisor for the county de- feated by an overwhelming majority, both according to the advocacy of the Trmzs, and yet our Independent Daily insists that the people look with suspicion upon any proposition the Times favors.

We predict the only drawback to Mayor Pace in a successful adminis- tration of the city will be the cramp- ed condition of the town’s finances, as the oid board only presented him with $10 or $12 to do business on for the year. The citizens of Butler can con- they have made for mayor. Mr. Pace is one of Butler’s most progressive cit- izens, and the Times feels justified in saying that his administration of city affairs, will in the end, meet the Speaking of Farmer Wade the Christian County Republican says: “The story of his (Wade's) treach- eryand dishonesty has not been fairly begun yet, but if he persists in trying to drag the party down with him,.it will all be told, and he will have dug his grave too deep ; Thr ell dressed m for him ever to be resurrected.” hreolwe rose ed J OURe oe who gave their names as Walter Hamilton, Thomas Lowell and Wil- liam Dalton were brought over from Pleasant Hill Monday afternoon charged with stealing three bolts of silk from Greenwalt’s store at that place valued at $400.

There was but one clerk in the store at the time, and while he took the man to the rear to show him the goods, two other men enter- ed and robbed it of the silk. They were not noticed and nothing was suspicioned as being wrong until within the course of an hour a lady called to purchase some silk, and when the salesman went to the drawer where it was kept, there was County Clerk Harper informs us that all the returns for the late school election are not in but enough are in to show that the su- pervision has been defeated big, pos- sibly as much as 10 toone.
