He will move his dental parlors to these rooms in a short time. township's most worthy young men and a true democrat gave us a pleas- and call while in the city Monday. He is an educated, talented young gentleman and we predict will make his mark inthe world. He leaves this week for Lexington, Mo., where he has accepted a lucrative position. He has been a staunch friend of the Trves and we wish bim well wherev- er he may go. Mr. Lee Moore, formerly telegraph | operator in this city, now filling the same position at southern Texas, was united in marriage Wednesday evening to Miss Mollie, the hand- some and accomplished daughter of Mrs. Chas. Burrows, at the residence at the depot Wednesday had his hand se badly crushed that it neces- sitated the amputation of thumb and two fingers. Dr. Boulware, the company’s surgeon performed the operation after which Mr. Thickett was sent to the hospital at Kansas City. In the next legislature the demo- crats will have on joint ballot 88 ma- jority. We imagine Bates county will look mighty lonesome in this body and we shall anxiously watch the rvil call when a yote is taken on a U. S. Senator, to see on which side of the fence Bates county's vote will drop. However, we hope to see Mr. Hendrickson make a good represen- | tative. i Meyer & Butte, of St. Louis, have purchased, cash down, twenty-four} lots near the M., K. & T. depot at! Clinton, and will soon begin the erec- tion of one of the largest merchant niills to be found in the west. capacity of the mill, it is said, will | be 500 barrels of flour every twenty-| | four hours. The water, gas and electric light franchise will, we suppose, be settled definitely one way or the other tc-! morrow night. In case the present franchise proves to be a |failure, the council should take up the lighting of the city and do something in that direction. Wm. Crenshaw, of Kansas City, the man who was to eat ninety quaile in thirty days for a $500 wager, fail- ed to score onhis eighty-sixth bird.

Among those in attendance from this city were Charlie Burrows, brother of the bride, and Miss Lillie Smith. Ned Forrest is still holding forth at the Ohio street M. E. church, and the interest is still on the imcrease. The people are so worked up that they go long before the first bell rings and stand on the sidewalk and wait for the doors of the church to be opened and in five minutes every seat is taken andin fifteen minutes standing room is at premium. Mr. Forest will remain in Butler this week and we understand close his part of the meeting on Sunday. Cer- taainly it has been a remarkable meeting and the good results are be- ing exhibited each evening. Prof. J. W. Reisner received noti- fication last week that he had been appointed to aclerkship in the pen- sion department at Washington at }a salary of $1,000 per annum. He was greatly surprised as he had made no direct applieation for a position. Early in the fall he stood the civil | service examination at Kansas City, jand heard nothing further from it, | jexcept that his average was very| | good. Prof. Reisner is a clever gen tieman,a good and worthy citizen aud his Joss will be deeply felt by our people. He left for his new field of duty the first of the week. Col. James L. Pace has gone into the real estate business in St. Louis. The Col. is a shrewd, far-seeing busi- ness man and we trust and believe he will make a decided success. Col.

The thirty-sixth general assembly of Missouri may be composed of “in- experienced men’—farmers almost to a man—but we are willing to risk something that they will make a better record than any legislature controlled by cow coroners for the purpose of multiplying laws and in- creasing litigation. If this farmer legislature will take the ponderous Missouri statute books and repeal about two thirds of the lawyers’ law in them, generations yet unborn will bless the day when the farmers took control of the democratic party iv Missouri.—St. Louis Republic. This does not sound much like the Republic was a corporation pa per. Again this week. This week the booming and enterprising American Clothing house presents its readers throngh the columns of the Tres, another batch of genuine bargains. This is one of the largest clothing houses in this section of the state, and under the skillful management of its proprietor, Mr. E. S. Carrith- ers, has made rapid strides in the direction of controlling the clothing trade of this section. Mr. C. informs us that his business the past year has been very satisfactory indeed, and to gain the confidence of the people he has endeavored to give them good value for their money. As the holidays are near at band you can find in this store many attrac- tive presents for yourself and friends in this establishment. If you want a wedding suit or a businéss or an every day suit call at the American Clothing House. Success. The I.O. 0. F. celebration next April is an assured success.

A suit for divorce filed in Jackson Co. court by Albert Mills against Maud Mills, recalls the story of the heroi: Maud Long. Five years ago an insane man who was taking two little children sleigh-riding became lost in the suburbs of Independence near the home of Miss Long. De- serting the children, he wandered to the house and managed to make the whereabouts of the children known. The young woman went out in the storm, discovered the children under the sleigh, which had upset, and took them to her home A wealthy rela- tive of the children showered pree- ents upon the brave girl and offered to pay her tuition at school. She went to Warrensburg and entered the Normal, but was discontented and left school to accept the hand of Albert Mills, a young Independence farmer. Her marriage did not prove happy. They separated in 1888, and ‘ each had a suit against the other for | divorce, Mrs. Mills having filed a suit several months ago.
