While he is very sick the physicians did not consider his case extremely dangerous. Our old friend Jos. Kimble, of Deepwater dropped in to see us Monday. A few years ago Mr. Kim ble turned his attention to raising fine horses, and he now has on hand several spans of fine match horse, but he says he can’t sell them at any price. He says if he had devoted the same energy to raising hogs or jeattle he would now have a good thing. Mr. Kimble can rest assured | however, that the horse market will |not remain low down the way it is now. | A great many farmers throughout | the county have sown oats. The old | way of preparing the ground by breaking it up has played out and the farmer now sows his oats on top of the ground and cultivates them in with a cultivator. By this method they do not have to wait for the ground to dry out and can pliant their seed from two to three weeks earlier. It is a great saving of labor and it is said oats do much better }than under the old way. Rich.

Arnold called in Tuesday and had bills struck for his blooded j stallion Goodloe, which will make \the present season at his place 5 miles east of Butler. Mr. Arnold has a splendid horse, his pedigree can be found in another colum+. The bill which provides for a re- peal of the section of the Australian ballot law requiring a_ political party to poll at least 3 per cent of the popular vote before receiving of- ficial recognition was deteated in the house at Jefferson City. The Times’ good friend, L S. Blankenship, of New Home town- ship, gave us a call Saturday and renewed for his paper. Mr. B. said farming had commenced in his neighborhood and that when the blizzard came up last Thursday he was in the field sowing oats. The suit against C. B. Lewis in regard toa mortgaged horse, tried at Harrisonville, Friday, resulted in a verdict in favor of Mr. Lewis. the jury being out only a few minutes. It was a piece of malicious prosecu tion and the Times is glad to know that Charley came out all right. We were forcibly reminded of the hollow mockery of fame,by receiving, in a handsomely bound volume, the proceedings of the National Demo eratic convention, and lo and behold one John D. Allen is accredited with representing the sixth Missouri dis- trict Fred Davis, son of Freeman Davis of this city, was struck in the head with a window weight by an un- known assailaut in Kansas City one day iast week and was seriously hurt, his skull being fractured. He was working in the printing office of W. H. Miller, Jr. Davis had gone into the wash room after dark and when he struck a match the man iu hidirg in the room struck him. Charley Pharis informs us that for fourteen years he has suffered untold agonies at times from what he supposed was neuralgia of the head and has spent a great deal of money to effecta cure® Last week he went to Kansas City and had his eyes examined by an occulist, who pronounced all the difficulty in those organs. He began a treatment of the eyes and has not. suffered since, and Charley now believes he will be permanently cured The trained horse show at the opera bouse Monday and Tuesday nights was highly appreciated by our people and the entertainment was first-class. The house was pack- ed both evenings and »erformances of the animals were almost human, and it is remarkable how horses and mules can be trained to perform such wonderful feats. The company have thirty horses and mules with them and each is a star in the troupe. Wonderful Things Hood’s Sarsaparilla Does for The Sick and Suffering Hood’s Cures May Ribbeck Wolcottsburgh, N. ¥. “I read in the papers of the wonderful things Hood's Sarsaparilla was doing for others, and ‘so I bought a bottle for my sick child. She was Suffering With Spasms. The physicians had given her up. It was terri ble to see her; she had spasms from 12 to 15 times in a day and night. At last her head was affected and she was out of her mind so thatshe knew hardly anything. She has taken two bottles of Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and is so much better that I cannot say enough in the way of thanks for this good medicine. Now this ie Hood’s = Cures only the truth, and I believe if it had not been for Hood’s Sarsaparilla, May would have been in her grave by this time. I carnesdy recom. mend this medicine, believing as it has helped ny child, is will help othtrs.” Mus. Mary RrBskcs, Wolcottsburgh, Ene Co., N. ¥.

You probably have av idsa in common with others, that “store” work Shirts are poorly made—s are too short—too small—will rip all to spieces with first wearing, &c., Ke. This is true with the ordinary “store” shirt—dry goods made to sell cheap. Not true, h trash owever, with our “NOXALL” Shiyts—they are made upon honor—cut large and roomy—are well made and we give a new shirt for every one that rips—they fit well and therefore, wear longer. The price, however, is within the reach of all—50c, 75c and $1 00 Buy them once and you'll buy no other. i AN | Mens a Bors QurritveRs \i THE LOST BABY. Its Corpse Found on the River Bank Sunday Afternoon On January 11th last the little two-year-old son of Joe and Mrs. Eastburn, living near Cornland,wan- dered away fromhome. The weath- erat the time was very cold, and the people of the neighborhood and later from all over the county made diligeat search, which was kept up| for weeks. The father expressed his belief from the first that the lit- tle fellow wandered out on the ice and fell into the water. The river was staked for a quarter ef mile be- | Amsterdam Chief, The Butler Union complains be- cause Boxley is not doing any better thau Atkeson did. Mr. Carroll you | should have seen some of the whisky ; men hide out when they imagined | they saw the form of Calvin S. Box- | ley standing before the bar of justice pleading in behalf of the state of Missouri. They used to face the music when Atkeson played the fid- dle. ...Quite a feat was performed at Worland not long since. A man was -ery anxious to get across the river to see a widow. “He came to the river and couldn't cross,” so he made the horse swim the Marias Des low, the ice cut and a thorough | Cygnes river and then pulled the search made but without avail. Sun- | day afternoon last as Mr. and Mrs. Eastburn were rowing on the river they discovered the corpse of tke little fellow on the bank some dis tance below where the stakes had been driven. One ear was eaten off and a hole in its cheek, presumably done by fish or musk rat. The body was taken home and the funeral held Monday. Everyone is glad that the body is found as the un- certainty of its fate was very trying on the parents. Conference Closed. The M. E. conference closed its session on Monday with the an- nounement by Bishop Fowler of the appointments for the following year. The conference was very interesting and instructive throghout not only to the preachers in attendance but also to those of our citizens who at- tended. On Sunday a treat was giv- en our people in the form of excel- | lent sermons at all churches, morn | ing and evening. Rev. W. A. Spen- cer preached at the opera house at 11 o'clock, and Rev. Poole at night. The following are the appointments in which our people are most direct- lyinterested: Carthage district, C. V. Criss presiding elder; Hume and Foster, W. M. Beatty; Rich Hill, G. E. Stokes. Kansas City district, F. B. Price, presiding elder; Adrian, M. Bell; Austin, W. F. Baker; Butler, Wn. Stephens; Butler circuit, H. A. Babbitt. Sedalia district; Appleton City, G. A. Glens; Clinton, H. M. Hackney; Rockville, to be supplied; Schell City, J. W. Finley. The con- ference adjourned to meet.at Leba- non next year. Salisbury Press Spectator—F. Bion McCurry received a telegram last Saturday from the Sam’! Levy Dry Goods and Clothing Co, of Butler, Mo., calling him tu a clerkship in their dry goods company. This is one of the biggest firms in the state outside of the cities. is one of the most efficient clerks as well as a business man, always giv- ing satisfaction for whomsvever he has worked. He is polite, quick and has a knack for drawing ‘trade. We lament very much to have him leave though we join many friends in wishing him success at Butler. For | the present his wife will remain at; their home in this city. The Modern Way Commends itself to well-informed to do pleasantly and effectually and what was formerly done in the crudest manner and disagreeably as well.

McCurry | buggy across the railroad bridge by hand The bridge is a long one, and had an extra appeared, the widow might have had to look around for some one else to mow the weeds in her yard. The artesian well and park at Clinton and all appurtenances thereto belonging was sold under the hammer Friday and brought $1,200, the Benton Land Co.. of Kansas City being the purchasers. The propefty was sold subject to an incumbrance of $22,000. The Clin- ton folks have one advantage, the well is there and the company that bought it can't move it. | JAMES ht.
