New corn is 35 cents a bushel in the country. A number of our citizens attended the Kansas City fair last week. R. 8. Deacon sold ten of their celebrated Round Oak stoves Satur- day. 8. P. Francisco returned from a week's visit to Marshall the lat of the week. J. W. Ennis, Public Administra- tor, spent several days in St. Louis last week. John B. Harris, accompanied by his eldest son, John Francisco Har- ris, complimented us Monday. Mrs. Heury Day and son Amos, of Ogdon City, Utab, are in the city visiting relatives and friends. W. A. Keel, of the Aurora Herald, came in Sunday evening on a ten visit to relatives and friends. Mre. Mattie McAnally, of Harris- onville, is visiting her sister, Mrs. Hornberger. At the preliminary trial last Thursday Tom Balawin waived ex amination aud was bound over te the circuit court in the sum of $1,000. The worst cases of scrofula, salt rheum and other diseases of the blood are cured by Hood's Sarsapa- rilla. The Calhoun Courier in deserib- ing a wedding attire says: “The groom looked well in a suit of black and white neektie.” R. M. Wilcox. liying near Passaic has a little daughter quite sick with scarlet fever. This is a dreaded disease and is to be hoped it wilt not spread in the neighborhood. Miss Joan Duke, we are sorry to report is ng better and while all have hopes of her recovery, it is @ ques- tion of grave doubt. peal ret SS ° The Novelty Store has moved from the east to the west side of the square and can now be found next door to the Boston store. haere If it takes twe men ten days to paint, nail a few boards and roof the court yard coal house, how long would it take the same two men to paint and roof the court house. G.D. Arveld says the rabbits have disappeared from his sectiou, and where there were hundreds to be seen this time last year, hardly one is to be found now. f wsitcmamdetr nt abe SESS Mrs. J. E. Linglefelter and Miss Mollie Dimmitt, of a pi who have been visiting their sister, Mrs. J. R. Davis for several weeks, took their departure for home Sun- day evening. ——— : We were shown a copy of the Mis- souri Deaf mute Record, printed at Fulton, Mo., Saturday, by George G. Jones, of this city. Tho pa- per is bright, spicy aud newsy and a credit to the institution where it is printed. Poe The Rich Hill fair isa fixed fact, and will be held Oct. 23, 29 and 30. There ought to be a big turnout of i} | fine stock and a good display of ag-j ricultural exhibits. We say let the fair be a grand success. lthe way the people talked with) The editor of the Times admits that he has made some errors, pos- sibly many, among the most serious of late is not in consulting the editor of the Record in regard to the na- ture and price of advertisements run in our columns. John Lamone, a tramp tailor, for stealing some articles from Rudolpb Talbott, was arrested the other day and taken before Squire Newsom and fined ten dollars and costs. The stolen articles were found .on his person, and a failure to pay the fine sent him to jail to lay it out at the expense of the county. Our people are patronizing the water company very liberally, and the lawns are going to look much prettier uext summer. Those whe hove not yet taken water and think of doing #0 ought to put in hydrants this fall, as it will save digging up their yards next summer. Jas. H. Harman our popular friend of Summit, gave usa pleasant call Saturday. He informs up that he has made arrangements with his nephew, Abe Harman, to ship him several car loads of corn from the Indian Territory. He says it will cost him about 30 cents per bushel laid down here. The water-works cempany is much encouraged by the number of citi zens taking water. It keeps several men hard at work putting in the service pipes and plumbing. We are glad to see our people taking the water, and those whe do wonder how they could have done without it so long. Those who are now using the water would not do without it for double the rental. R. W. Mitchell has sold his inter- est in the Southwest Mail to Mr. R. M. Spencer of Warrensbrug. Mr. Mitchell has always added tone te | the press of Southwest Missouri,and in extending our fraternal greeting to Mr. Spencer, hope that he will fill Mr. Mitchell's place with equal credit.—Nevada Republican. W. B. Tyler of Spruce township, gave usa pleasant call while in_ the city Monday. He sold his fine farm in that township last week, but s@ys he hates to leave Bates county, and if he can find a place that just suite him may conclude to buy again. We trust he fay be suited for a better fellow never lived and we would hate to see him leave the county. The flight of steps leading to the Odd Fellows and Masonic halls, in the third story of the court house are in a bad and dangerous condi- tion and the court should leok after them and have them repaired before anaecident oceurs. In short the court house needs repairing in 8 number of places and it would be economy to have the same done be- fore it gets worse. Saturday was a regular circus day in Butler and our mercbants are all wearing a pleasant smile. People will come and buy where they find goods cheap and as represented. Our merchants have laid in large stocks and we are glad to know their efforts to please are being ap- preciated by our farmers. Every farmer should take pride in seeing it grow and prosper.

Wade's bids for the city printing were identical on first insertion. This probably explains the reason for Austin’s ti- rade against us. We are sure no oue wil! think tbat an understanding exists between the two editors, both are far above suspicion. The Nevada papers are still dis- cussing the Deffenbaugh killing. Some are trying to manufacture sen- timent for Hutton—others for Deft- gnbaugh. While there may have been some merit on both sides, it is evident that if Deffenbargh had been as attentive to his own wife and child as he was to the wives of others, this affair would never have happen- ed.—-Rich Hill Review. T. N. Hendricks, of Gentry coun- ty, Mo., purchased W. B. Pyler’s farm, in Spruce township, of 247 acres, for which he paid $7,000. The trade was made in an hour after the gentlemen, met. Cassel Hale ac- companied Mr. Hendricks to our of- fice. We found him a sociable clev- er gentleman, and Cassel vouches for his democracy. We welcome Mr. H. to our county and trust he may never have cause to regret locat- ing among our people. Articles of incorporation for the electric light for Butler haye been filed in the reeorder’s office. The capital stock is $15,000. The incor porators are John A. Kellar, T. W. Silvers, A. L. McBride and Geo. M. Canturbury. The officers of the company are John A. Kellar, presi dent; Geo. M. Canturbury, seeretary; and T. W. Legg, treasurer. These gentlinen are among our very best citizens and their names are a guar- antee thatthe plant will be of the very best. The latest and no doubt the most trustworthy representation of the sveiul and economic life of the South American peopleis to be found in Theodore Child's recently published volume on The Spanish American Republics. The book embraces a record of a seven months’ tour through the southern portion of the continent, and is a very complete ex- pesition of the resources and devel- opment of the countries visited. It is superbly illustrated froi photo- graphs and from drawings by the foremost American artists.

The bookstore of F. H.

There are only six cities in the state that are made distributing points; St. Louis, St. Joseph, Kan- sas City, Hannibal, Springfield and Sedalia. If you want to order books make a note ef this. J. Davis O’Rear has again launch- ed his Thomas Cat upon the journal-| istic sea, at Hot Springs, Ark. It is no older apparently than when it humped its back ard spit spitefully at all who stroked its fur the wrong way while making its home in But- ler. It may be poorer or have grown | very fat and sleek, but yeu can’t tell the difference in its looks except for ita color. J. Davis is a genius and like other geniuses, so we have been told, was born, uot made. An exchange thus deseribes the meaning of the term local enterprise: If you can think of anything that can be done to beautify or build up your town, doit; keep your capital at home; patronize home industries; help the merchants so they can sell cheaper; get your work done in town if possible; subseribe and pay for your paper~—do:'t steal or borrow the reading of it. If you follow these suggestions and your town does not build up it will not be your fault. Judge Lay completed a three weeks term of court Saturday and returned to his home in Warsaw. Coming among our people almost a stranger Judge Lay's ability,cour- tesy and high standing have won himself a host of friends. It goes witheut saying that this judicial district has been especially favored. Beginning with Judge Wright who presided almost half a lifetime, we then had our own Judge Gantt, now amember of the supreme court Judge DeArmond was not permitted to serve out his term, until an ad miring constituency gave him higher honors. Judge Lay is following in their footsteps. He has begun in brings with it distinction and honer in after years, as sure as one day follows.—Clinton Democrat. Dizp—On Friday evening, Sept. 9th, at her residence in Summit township, Mrs. Sallie A., wife of Ra- venna A. Harris. Funeral services were conducted at Elizabeth Chapel Sunday by Elder Browning, and the remains interred in the Elizabeth Chapel cemetery. Mr. and Mrs. Har- ria were married at Richiwond, Ken- tucky, in 1879. Her maiden was Miss Sallie A. Jones. Three children blessed this union, one girl, now 10 years of age and two boys, the youngest being 2 years of age. Mrs. Harris was a most estima- ble lady, a loving aud devoted wife and mother, a good neighbor and a devout christian. She has been! sick some time with lagrippe, but her death is a great shock to the) family. The bereayed husband and | relatives have the sympathy of the entire community.
