The death of Johnson Hill occur- red at his home in this city Tuesday night of last week, adds another name to the roll call of old settlers of this county. He had a severe at | tack of la grippe during last winter and siuce that time has been in fail- ing health, but the immediate caus> of his death was due to heart fail ure. No man stood bigher in this coun ty as an honest, conscientious gen tleman than Mr. Hill, and his un- assuming, kind and cheerful disposi- tion made for him a steadfast friend of those with whom he became ac quainted. He served this couuty for a number of years consecutively as public administrator, and his offi cial acts were all in line with that unstained character which he bore. Mr. Hill) was born in Warren county, Ohio, April 30, 1817, and) came to Missouri fifty years ago, re | maining three years and then remov ing to Iowa where he lived for 24 years. Returning to this state in + 67, has resided here ever since. was married in 1839 to Phila C. Kim- , bell in Union county, Ohioand three ;years ago this couple celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of their wedded life. Six children are living, being Pleasaut Hill and Mrs. R. Harper. of Butler, Rev. Hi"! of Ottawa, Kan , | Dr. Hill of Eldorado Springs, Mrs. | daughter in northern Iowa. | two latter were unable to be present }at the funeral. The funeral services «s : place at the C. P. church con- ducted by Rev. Blair, and the re- {mains were laid to rest in the Mor | ris cemetery five miles south of the | Miami.

The c'esing of the Butler public schools Thursday and Friday last was a brilliant success and the chil- dren in their years work crowned themse'ves with glory. The exhibit at the west building in point of artistic work far excelled | all previous efforts of teachers and | . z jcousin, John Stephenson, this week scholars, and for two days the beau | tiful specimens of penmanship and drawing was admired and comment- ed on by the patrons of the school. The map drawing was truly wou- derful and im many instances so perfectly and neatly executed it resembled in appearance the work of a steel plate, rather than the hand and pencil work of a child eight to ten years old, and the Tivrs would be pleased to individualize each child deserving of praise had we the space to spare. Suffice it to say. however, the | , school board were so well pleased with the work done arrangements was made Friday night to placea bumber of specimens of the same in the state exhibit at the Warrensburg ; normal schoo! building, and we feel confident the work will not be ex celled by any school in the state. For the past year the board has been particularly fortunate in secur- | ing a corps of t ichers to assist , Prof, Starr that have given geaerai | satisfaction, and who have done their whole duty to the schoois. Miss Maggie Abell, teacher of the | | eighth grade. has been in this room \ for the past seven or eight years. | She ranks with the best teacheis iu ; the state and her place in the Butler ; schools would be hard to replace. Miss Kate McClements, teacher jofthe fifth grade is another of the old stand bys, and no teacher in the building has given better or more | satitfactory work. | Mrs. E..A. McDonald, teacher of | the first grade is one of the fixtures in the school. She is a lady of rare j ability in her line of work, and has ; been with the schools for 10 or 11 | Years. Miss Maggie Arnold is anether of | Butler's popular teachers. She has had charge ot a primary room for 'the past two years and reckoned with with our bes: teachers. She is -a graduate of our schools, a home } | young lady and will make her mark | ‘as a teacher. | Miss Emma Cassity,primary teach-| jer has also given general satisfaction | jand all present enjoyed themselves | k her ability as a teacher and dis- | ciplinarian. | Miss Alice Ludwick, teacher of the | third grade, and who has been with | the school for geveral years, retired , this year at her own request She h 4 of our most effi teachers and her good council will be 1 t] iont BES sehoo. fith and sixt the top roun profession | a born teacher aud her work ar was admired by ali.
