Your Patronage Solicited, Duvall & Percival of this city are saving the farni- ers of Bates county thou-| sands of dollars by giving | them the benefit of their} lower rates of interest on farm loans. ' Dick Hurt and Dow West have leased Fred Dorn’s§barber shop on | north Main street. Both are first | class barbers and the shop will lose | none of its reputation by the change. | The Mobile and Ohio south bound | passenger train was robbed by six | bandits Friday night, at Forest Lawn a small station near East St. Louis. | It is said the robbers secured about | $10,000 from the express car. The| passengers were not molested. While unloading ice in the rear of | the Ohio street butcher shop Tues- | day, Fox Bros’ team of horses at- tached to the ice wagon took fright and ran away. The team ran north to Pine street and the greatest dam- age done was to A. L. McBride's de- livery wagon, standing at his barn, which was wrecked. The trial of Miss Lizzie Borden | at Bedford, Mass, for the murder of her father and stepmother is the most sensational trial of the day. The defense scored a decided victory on Monday by the court refusing to let her evidence, given at the coron- ers inquest, be introduced. The evidence, was given under great men tal excitement and was very damag- ing to the fair defendant. From all over the county comes the cheering news that crop pros- pects are bright. The wheat is sav- ed and will make a fair yeild to the acre; oats and flax are good; corn, while not far advancdgi™ a majority of cases is clean and hata good col- or and only requires seasonable weather to make a good crop. Un fortunately there is no fruit worth mentioning. Peaches and apples are about all killed. There will be some blackberries. Jim Crook got his team drowned last Saturday by his hand attempting to drive them across the Mulberry. On reaching the ford, thinking the water was deep, he unhitched one horse rode in but did not go far enough to strike deep water. He rode back and hitched up and siarted to drive across. He struck swimming water and ore horse swam but the other commenced lunging which took them both down. The driver swam to shore but the horses both drowned....W. D. Sylvester, editor of this paper, was appointed post- master for Worland Saturday, so we learn from the Kansas City Times and Star.—Amsterdam Chief. Sam Wilson, train robber, has is- sued a card “to whom it may con cern,” offering his services to any museum manager who will go on his $5,000 bond. He furthermore agrees to withhold his plea of guilty and delay his trial and final incarcer- ation, to the end that he can be ex- hibited as the “lone train robber” as jong as possible. Wilson is certain- ly a “freak” in his way.—Sedalia Bazoo. The St. Louis Post Dispatch has begun publishing a list of Missouri pensioners. Last Sunday it had the St. Louis list and next Sunday it will try some other city. In the thirteen columns of pensions all but four are for service disabilities— only four being for disabilities in curred in the service. This does not by any means agree with the Old Commander’s declaration that only the needy and deserving should draw pensions.” —Ex. TO LIVE STOCK SHIPPERS. Mr. L. 8. Paddock was in the city | Mayor January of Nevada, was in the city Tuesday. W. F. Duvall had a fine Jersey cow to die Sunday night. Three negroes were mobbed and maltreated by strikers at Lemont.

Courtney & Williams shipped a car load of hogs, to the Kansas City market Monday. Hon. William Walter Phelps, it is expected, will take his seat on the bench in New Jersey as a lay judge, on the 20th inst. The state, so far, in the Lizzie Borden murder trial, has presented a very weak case. and the chances now look favorable for her acquittal. Gus Bernhadt of Jefferson City is the happy dad of a fine boy, and grandpa Bernhardt is just as happy as a boy with his first pair of boots. Our good friend Billy Tyle was in to see us Tuesday. He said he nev- er had a better prospect for wheat and oats and his corn is growing fine He measured a stalk of corn at ran- dom Sunday afternoow and in just twenty four hours it grew 24 inches. He says there will be no fruit worth mentioning. Mrs. R. T. Dorough, who was a delegate to the Woman’s Board of Missions of the M.

Three physicians certifi- ed that the voyage would probably prolong his life. In an interview yesterday Gilbert said that he intend- ed during his sojurn in the United States to direct the Washington Government's attention to the _piti- | able condition of Americans impris- oned at Portland.

Lead, Zine, Jack. Lucky Peter Lane, our fellow- townsman, has struck it rich. Tues- day of last week he purchased a half interest in a lead mine at Joplin ata naminal cost, one of its owners after putting in a year’s work and find- ing nothing became disheartened and sold his interest to Mr. Lane. The next day a blast was put in and the first shot uncovered the hidden treasure, the mine having been work- ed to within six inches of the lead ore. Thenews of the find soon spread, and Mr. Lane was forced to then and there refuse $1,000 in cash for his interest. He brought home with him several samples of the lead, zine and jack taken out and has it on exhibition at the store of Lane & Adair. Mr. Laue is satisfied he has struck a bonanza, and the Tiwes hopes to see his fullest expectations realized. He is a deserving citizen of the towm and bis many friends in this county would be glad to hear of his prosperity. Rich Hill Review sth. Dr. W. H. Allen, County Coroner, who was out yesterday to hold au in quest on the body of the man who hanged himelf the night before, was seen by a Review reporter this morn- ing and from him it was learned that the man’s name was Wm. Lorab, that he was a good looking young mau aged 26, who was farming Mrs. Sa rab Smith’s farm. Mrs Smith is aj widow lady, aged about 30, who lost | her husband Jast October Although Mrs. S. and the deceased were both persons of the most exemplary cbar acter, the fact that the deceased was | an unmarried man the lady a widow, gave the gossips food for remarks. It is supposed that Lorab was a very sensitive nature, and that this gossip preyed upon his mind to such an ex the can be assigned. Mrs Smith was absent at Batier during Tuesday afternoon on | a shopping expedition, and on her} return that night her hired man’s | body was found dangling from a | rafter, lifeless, Lorah having fasten | ed one end of arope to the raitert and the other around his neck, and! then jumped from the rafter to his doom. The verdict of the jury was in accordance with these facte. | Attempt at Suicide.

While waiting for a conveyance at questioned the would-be suicide, w about 50 years of age, as to his nam and reason for wishing to end the man steadfastly refused t» gi mation regarding himself. He wa the Massachusetts General Hospital and surgical attendance given him. Although weak from loss of blood it is probable he will recover. About 9 o’clock last night a hospital attendant got a little information from him. He said his name was Samuel D—, and that he came some weeks ago from New Brunswick. The last few days his head has felt queer, and he has been wan- dering about the city, not knowing which way to turn. What impelled him to commit his rash act he was unable to say. The above is the familiar but terrible story of the results of mentalderangement caused by overstrain of the nervous system. People who have dizziness, headache or back- ache, or who are troubled with melancholy or despondent feelings, are already well on the | toad which leads to insanity and suicide. | “Dr. Miles Medical Co.: I cannot find| language in which to express my app' - | tion of the great benefit I have derived} from the use of your Restorative Nervine. | When life became a burden I would use the | Nervine to soothe my weakened nerves, and | tocalm my exhausted and irritable brain.” | —Mrs. H.

D., so far from being discouraged by the recent disastrous fire, is putting forth every energy to rebuild itself better and more substantially than before. A woman who said the angels had commissioned her to kill Archbishop Hennessy of Dubuque, Io, created quite a scene at church in an effort to execute her insane purpose. Bishop Joseph D. Key was over- come by the heat while preaching a baccalaureate sermon Sunday at Jackson, Tenn. The attack was not fatal, though the Bishop could not finish his sermon. The mystery surrounding the dis- appearance of Winfield Weaver, the assailant of Miss Emma Sprague, at Monticello, Ill., has been solved by the finding of Weaver's body in the Sangamon river.
