LOCAL ITEMS. Patronize the home cigar factory by calling for the Mootz cigar. The democracy of Bates county is under obligations to T. B. Wheeler, of Warsaw, for valuable services ren dered in this county during the cam- paign. The Mootz cigar is the best sold in Butler, call for it, and smoke no other. It is claimed that one-third of the 5 million dollars raised for the Johnstown sufferers, was stolen by the meu who handled it. The Con- emaugh disaster brought out in a vivid light the nobility and depravi- ty of human nature. That Superior Todd stove at McBrivr & Co. Uncle Jim McDonald, who died very suddenly, last Friday night of heart diseases, was buried yesterday. Deceased was a prominent miner and contractor in the Rich Hill mines operating near Bruce. He wasa good man.—Rich Hill Review. There is an item of this kind go- ing around in regard to the last en- counter between Napoleon and Wel- lington: The noise of the artillery at Waterlly was heard at Creil, 115 miles from the scene of the battle, and also at Dover. Those Jewel Base heaters for soft coal, are the finest stove in the mar- ket; sold by McBrivg & Co. Hon. W. F. Tuttle, representative of Pettis county spent several days in this county during the campaign and made telling speeches at a num- ber of places. Mr. Tuttle is one of the best speakers in this state, and he did the democratic party in this county much good during his stay with us, for which he has the lasting gratitude of the law and order party of Bates. Ed. E. Mootz, the Butler cigar maker is selling all he can make. Call for the Mootz cigar. The Globe Democrat says the democratic congressional campaign committee are trying to get demo- cratic merchants to mark up the prices on their goods. This is en- tirely unnecessary, for the circulars already sent out by the manufactur- ers and wholesale dealers have awak- ened the people to the enormous robbery that has been perpetrated under the guise of a tariff bill. Live Oak heater like the Live Oak tree is a thing of beauty everlasting Sold only by McBarive & Co. Jay Gould says that the effect of the McKinley tari law on the coun- try will be slight, as people will buy less under the advanced prices than they did before.

Turlington was arrested at Seda- lia last spring for shooting at two brakemen near Otterville, Mo., and brought here charged with assault with intent to kill. While at Sedalia he told a young prisoner whose con- fidence he had secured that he had concealed the revolver with which he did the shooting near Otterville where it could be found. The young man got the revolver, took it to Boonville and gave it to Turlington. Last evening, when Sheriff Cranmer went into the jail Turlington drew his revolver and demanded his re- lease. Cramer drew his revolver, and according to best accounts both fired about the same time. Cranmer was fatally wounded. Turlington was captured before he had gone very far, was tried for murder, con- victed and sentenced to be hanged November 21. Before his trial he told the story of the Pryor creek train robbery in the Indian territory and said a man named Temple had assisted him in the robbery.
