Judge Gantt is a clean man and a lawyer of abil- ity, and will add strength to the ticket; Mr. Wolfe is an educator of state reputation and I regard the nomination of Mr. Hickman for rail. road commissioner as a stroke of good policy.

The sad and unexpected news of the serious sickness of Sheriff Glaze- brook, received by telegraph from Jefferson City, Wednesday last, and then the subsequent telegrams which followed annovncing his condition and the final dispatch Friday an- nouncing b's death at 6 o'clock, cast a gloom over the city, and the ex- pressions of sorrow and regret were on the lips of all our citizens. Incharge of a prisoner Sheriff Glazebrook left this city on the even- ing train Wednesday for Jefferson City, arriving there about 2 o'clock Thursday morning in comparative good health. After turning his charge to the warden of the peni- tentiary he repaired to the Madison hotel and after requesting the clerk to allow him to sleep as late as pos. sible, was shown to his room. About 11 o’clock the chamber maids of the hotel in waking their rounds found the door to his room still locked and as escaping from theroom. The clerk was at once notified and the door was forced open and the pa- tient removed to fresh airand a phy- sician summoned. He was uncon- scious when the physicians arrived and remained so until his death. There are several conjectures as to how Mr. Glazebrook lost his life,the most plausible in our judgment be- ing that in turning off the gas on re- tiring he accidentally turned the jet screw back allowing the gas to es- cape. The story that he blew the calyes at 44 cents. They were an extra bunch of calves which he bought in Kansas City at yearlings, and in five months and twenty one days stall feeding he made them 406 pounds to thehead. Mr. Mudd said the calves were all of the same breed and had white faces, and were the finest bunch of calves he thinks he eversaw. He aiso informed us that the sale which he thought he had made of his store and stock of goods had been declared off, as the man he sold to failed to make con- nections in raising the money. ee: + endida.. for county] tery.

The nomination of Gantt, when 1t became known was hailed with satis- faction by the lawyers, who taking a great interest in the contest, were out on the etreets in numbers. “I look upon the nomination of Judge Gantt as an unfortunate thing for the republican party,” said Col. Wells H. Blodgett, one of the lead- ing republicans of the state. “Gantt is a clean man and popular with the bar, irrespective of party.
