Carrithers, proprietor of the American clothing house in this city says he did eleven hundred doliars more business in April 1891 than he did in the same month in 1890. The Times is glad to hear Butler's mer- | chants reader such good reports of | increasing business. John and J. T. Fry, two of Bates county's most energetic German farmers, living east of this city, re- ceived their second shipment of Gal loway cattle last week. They now have quite a large herd and will turn their attention to the breeding of these cattle in the future. J.J. McKissiek has brought suit against the township board of Mt Pleasant township for $430. He had acontract with the board to keep the roads in good repair for one year for $500. The board claim he has not comlied with the contract and refused te pay the bill, hence the) suit. There is little difference between | the hinter. kicker or insinuater and ! consolation during the sickness and |handling none but the best quality | Of goods. | gentlemanly business approved by theboard.

Mrs. S M. Lyons, desires us to return her sincere thanks to those friends and neighbors who so kind ly rendered their assistance aud | death of her daugbter Ella Close. The city is getting along nicely, | there is money in the treasury to| pay warrants promptly,and hones good work and economy is the watch word. Of course thereare growlers and kickers, an! always will be, but the public concerneth not. A fire at Deepwater Henry county, Friday destroyed the buildings at the Keith & Perry coal mines at that place. About forty miners were at work in the mines at the time but all escaped without harm For a time the little town was panic stricken. About forty cases ef small pox in Webb City. |J. B. Phillips of Neva- | da, who has been there in the last few days says it is reported the dis- ease is spreading, and over tifteen hundred people have left the city. As un ounce ef prevention is worth a pound of cure, would it not be well for our city officials to look a little out. The council Thursday night or- | dered a sidewalk put down in front of the burnt district on the south side of the square. Also sidewalks on the west side of South Main. The mayor brought up the matter of hose and a hose cart, that the city might be ready for fire protection on the completion of the waterworks and a committee was appointed te look after the matter The council- men and mayor seem to be taking a deep interest in the welfare of the city aud many substantial improve- ments will be made this summer. The T res takes pleasure in call- ing the attention of the advertise- ment of the Boston store in another column of this paper. This firm is located on the southwest corner of the square. They carry one of the finest assortments of dry goods to be found in this sechon of the country. Also notions and a good stock of clothing.

Black, living five miles southeast of the city was thrown from a young horse, whick he was breaking to the saddle, Friday andin the fall broke the} thigh bone in his left leg. Dr. Boul- ware of this city was called in and attented to the wants of the young nan, setting the bone and leaving him as cemfortable as possible. It was a very unfortunate mishap for the young man and more especially at this season of the year as at best it will be two or three months} before he will be able to get up. After Murderer Soper.

The Pension I The pension list keeps on grow- ; ing larger every day and no one can tell when it will cease to increase. Everyone whe wants a pension can get the same by applying to any one of the 37,000 pension sharks who are | indirectly supported by the govern ment. The natural conclusion, that the pension appropriations should | commence decreasing twenty-five or thirty years after the close of the | war in which all of the disabilities are presumed to have been incurred does not work out in this country. The government is purguing the pol- icy that appropriations should constantly increase Germany pays less for a standing pension army of 500,000 soldiers than this | }government pays out in pensions The national debt of Italy | amounts to but little more than the , alone. annual outlay for support of pen- sioners in this country.
