Z | Miss Louise Estling committed | suicide in her apartments at Sicher’s Hotel, Monday night by hanging. Ill health and despondency the cause. She was quite wealthy. Nevada Mail —Miss Maud Catron who has been visiting Miss Katie Clack left for Butler this afternoon. She will be the guest of friends for several days. A female lecturer said: “Get mar- ried, young men, and be quick about it. Don’t wait for the millenium for the girls to become angels. You'd look well beside an angel wouldn’t you, you brutes? Bob, Newcomb and Davis Wyatt three brothers supposed to be con- nected with the gang that held up the Santa Fe train at Cimmaron Kas. were arrested the other day at Hen- nessy, Oklahoma. Colonel Henry Watterson has greatly enlivened an otherwise very dull season with the announcement that he has permanently retired trom politics. Col. Watterson is always saying something just at the right time to make this nation laugh.— St. Louis Chronicle Seammon Kas., June 17.—Charley Wade a striking miner living in this city, committed suicide yesterday by shooting himself. He remarked an hour before that rather than starve to death he would kill himself. He left a young wife. The schools of West Point town- ship will hold a picnic atthe grove on the mound west of Amsterdam, on next Saturday, June 24th. This will be a closing of the schools and a very interesting programme is ar- | ranged. Music will be furnished by | Mulberry band. - Eldorado Mascot 15.—We hearti- ly endorse the sentiments ex- pressed by Judge DeArmond and published by the Henry County! Democrat last week. The Judge is a “Western” man warmly in sympa- | thy with the west on all leading questions of the day and he will be i heard from in no uncertain tones when congress meets. An exchange says there are things 2 level headed man should never do. Among these is to walk ona railroad | track, to point a pisiol at another, | to put his name to another man’s | note, to keep his savings in an old] sock under the bed, to run for office | when he has a paying institution in private life, or call a bigger man than | bimself a liar. Harper's Bazar for June 24th will contain a bright summer story by | Martha McCulloch Williams, called | “A Vagrant Rose” a timely and prac tical, “On the Veranda,” by Christie | Tehune Herrick; and a new depart- ; ment, “En Passant,” in which a so- ciety man will give society and fashion notes for men every week. Nevada Post. Jacob D. Allen, of the Butler Times, bas been appointed postmast- er at Butler to succeed O. D. Austin. Allen is deserving of it, for he is a working democrat, and aman com- petent to fill the place acceptably to all parties.

C.Clark writes that he will arrive here Sun- day morning, July 16th with a full company from Butler. Elbert Thompson celebrated his 21st birthday at the home of his father, D. N. Thompson, yesterday evening. Quite a number of his friends were honored with an invita- tion and had a splendid supper and pleasant time. We heartily endorse the senti- ments expressed by Judge DeAr mond and published in the Henry Ceunty Democrat last week. The Judge is a “western” man, warmly in sympathy with the West on ail the leading questions of the day,and he will be heard from in no uncer- certain tones when congress meet — Eldorado Mascot. Record:—Bro. J. D. Allen was on last Monday appointed postmaster at this place Asit o: right belongs to a democrat, we know of no one of the great unwashed we had rather see have the plum than Bro. Allen. We hope and expect to see him as obliging and courteous as Mr. Aus tin has been. a complaint against the management | of the office by Mr. O. D. Austin Adrain has a good ereamery equipped with all the necessary mogeran machinery, but it 1s stand- ing idie, there is a good demand for creamery butter at fair profit. Bates Co. is an excellent grass producing county. Why with these favorable | conditions does the creamery stand | idle? Let the wheels of the creamery beset in motion and by so doing help the town and farnish a profit able market for the products of the farm.—Adrain Journal. To the philosophical mind no ca |lamity is so great but what some j consolation can be derived there- from. The Nevada Mail derives {much consolation over the loss of the Missouri Pacitic extention that all; and the Review retorts that Rich Hilt is “more strickly in it than Nevada” because located nearer Butler. But Butler can afford to smile compla- cently and let the other towns look for consolation. The republicans played sheol with national finapces, and now the dem s have got to take hold of Up cle Sam's boot straps and lift him out of the mire. An extra session of congress that will back up Car | lisle in his fight against the cold- blooded conspirators of Wall street, tariff re do the business. A democratic con- gress ought to “take the bull by the | horns,” country lay no claim to statesmanship, but | | know what hurts them.—Nevada Post. Blue Mound has a young man who is very particular about the way his shirts are ironed, and this fact came very near losing him his best girl. He wrote a note to his wash- erwoman and one to his sweetheart the same day, but in mailing them got the notes mixed. His washer- woman was delighted to receive an invitation to take a ride next day, but his sweetheart nearly cried her eyes out when she read the follow- ing curt note: “If you tumble up my shirt bosom as badly again as you did last time, I will go else- where hereafter."—Blue Mound Sun. egan cutting | We have never heard | and the sooner the better. | And Four Others Badly shocked and | Burned by Lightning. | Jobn and Dan Wright were killed | | by lightning last Wednesday at their ‘home four miles west of Adrian, and | jtheir four brothers, Peter, George, | Dock and James Wright and young | , Hand. were severely shocked. The} | boys had taken shelter from the | storm under a shed rooi between, | two corn cribs. Young Hand was | |the first to recover and said the [the ap roles of discord. | Wright boys were all piled gether. A.J. h of Ad was among the first to place, says the scene was tral rending. The six bo | two dead and four \and burned by the electric \and three girls prostrated by grief. This is indeed a sadly afficted | family and a strange fatality has seemed to follow them for several years. It will be remembered that |the father, Frank Wright, killed a neighbor boy, young Christoleer, and wounded another boy while en | | gaged in charivaring his daughter. He was indicted by the grand jury, his case carried to Henry county on a change of venue and he was ac quitted. He returned to this coun- ty and a few weeks later was shot from ambush and killed. His devot ed wife, broken-hearted, up to- 3, WHO} ocked | suddenly, and without warmog, call- ed hence. The afflicted family have the sympathy of the entire commu- nity. TU BUTLER AND CARTHAGE. TLe Missouri Pacific Issues « New Mar. The Nevada Mail says the Mo. Pa cific has issued a new map; that the map is @ very pretty oue and shows the Jefferson City aud Baguell line extended in two directions. One of the proposed routes commences at Bagnell and extends through Boli- var aud Geenfield to Carthage. ‘he other leaves the main line at Oiean ashort distance north of Buagnell and passes west through Versailles, and Warsaw, missing Appleton City a short distance and uniting with the Emporia branch at Monteith, a short distance south of Butler The nearest point to Nevada on tue Butler line would bé Wa:saw, aud Bolivar would be the closest on the Carthage line’ Rich Hill has had great expectations of securing the eastern connection ever since the little link was built from Ft. Scott but is not in it at all. Hiaing in # Cave. West Plains, Mo., June 16.—Sev- eral months ago Peter Renfrow, uaz / der a sentence of death for killing a| | Shannon county constable, esea aped | lfrom the Springfield jail, since! which time no trace of him has been | found until recently, when it has been ascertained that after leaving Springfield he returned to Shannon | county and immured himself in one} of the numerous caves near his| j home, where he guards himself with | a Winchester revolver, and is watch | ed over by a faithful dog.

In the St. Joseph case the city is | trying to recover the amount of the jjudgement from a street r ailway. | Originally the city was sued and the damages awarded against it, and in turn the municipality tried to recov. | er from the street railway but fail- ed. In the Trenton case a lady fell on a defective sidewalk and, not withstanding the fact that she knew of its dangerous condition, she was awarded the damages stated. It is strauge that Jefferson City has so long escaped a lesson of this kind. S. G. Julian, a retired merchant, committed suicide at Lincoln, Neb.

Smith was « prosperous farmer living about one mile south of Otterville just inside of Morgan county. He came to this part of Missouri in 1872. from Chicago.
