Mains and children left last week for Michigan to spend the summer visiting relatives and friends The Times wishes them a pleasant time and safe return. During the heated term the pas- tora of the church have arranged for union services. Hereafter ser- vices will be held in but two churches Sabbath eyenings. A good many of the farmers who expected to begin cutting wheat Monday were prevented by therain. }G. D. Arnold of Summit township had made all arrangements to cut 30 acres. Burglars broke through a large plate glass in the front door of E. J. Demeter’s hardware store at Macon Mo., Friday mght and stole ten re- volvers, $50 in money and a pocket knife. | Judge Hayes, passed down the road Friday, on his way to Nevada. He was performing the unpleasant duty of conveying his brother, L. W. Hayes, of Kansas City,to the asylum for treatment. Prof. Jas. A Burke resigned the | principalship of the Schell City pub- lic schools. He is now at Stillwell, Oklahoma, and writes the school | board he has decided to engage in | other pursuit. A few days ago the mayor of Ver- ;sailes was peppered with ancient eggs by citizens of the town because he opposed enforcing an ordinance restraining stock from running at | large. ‘The chinch bugs haye made their appearance in large numbers in Ver- non county but it is said so far no | damage has been done to the wheat and oats crops although they may | damage the corn crop. | | The Nevada papers are at a loss to know what to do with the petri- fied woman to be auctioned off in that city, for storage account. Turn the ‘old gal” over to the lake and park company. We note from the Foster Times that Wm.

V. D. Snider, injured in a railroad wreck, near Wichita, Kansas, a week or so ago, arrived home Friday even- ing. He was badly hurt in the back and legs, but is improving fast, and hopes to be able to walk about in 4 short time. He says the car in which he was riding was made a_ total wreck, and he was thrown about 15 feet in the air, landing on a pile of rock. Mr. Snyder said the car con- tained but few passengers and it is a miracle how they escaped with their lives. The Christian church is also dis- senting from the Sunday opening of the world’s fair. The general mis sionary society of that church has been instructed to seek some other place to hold the annual meeting and to do all in its power to withdraw the exhibits of the board from the fair. The Methodists have decided to veil their exhibits on Sunday and the Episcopalians say, throw the gates open. | Curbstones of pure white sand stone now protect the edges of the concrete walk in front of Dr. Boul- ware’s handsome residence. The stone used was taken from the doc tor’s famous quarries south of town. Better or prettier building stone is not to be found im the state. He has two or three different varieties of stone on his land and some day the quarries will be very valuable property. Master Roy Proctor celebrated his 13th anniversary at the home of his parents on Ohio street Satur- day night. About 26 of his play- mates had the honor of being pres- ent, and a royal good time was had. A bountiful supply of refreshments, cream, cake, candies, nuts, ete, was served. Roy was the recipient of many handsome presents and the best wishes of his little friends. The Times is indebted to Jesse Taylor, our popular, efficient and handsome deputy circuit clerk, for favors shown us during this term of court. Jesse is one of Bates count’ys young farmer boys, with diamond brain, steady habits, courteous and gentlemanly at ‘all times, he has earned the good name and high esteem in which he is held in this community Capt. Harvey C. Clark and Ira E. Smith were admitted to the practice of law Friday night. Both young gentlemen were put through a rigid examinations. Capt. Clark for the past two years has been a student in the law office of DeArmond & Smith and Mr. Smith in the office of Parkinson & Graves. Both are tal- ented young men and a bright fu- ture is before them. The Tres ex- tends congratulations and hopes to see both rise to distinction in their chosen and honorable profession. Anu M.K. & T. passenger train was fired into at Stringtown, Indian Territory, Friday night by unkuown parties. About 20 shots were fired some of them took effect in the chair car and others inthe smoker. For- tunately no one was hurt. Two at tempts had been made at that point to robthe trains during the week and Friday night the crew had or ders not to stop at that point urder any circumstances. It is supposed the robbers are after the Indian money which is expected to pass through for distribution. H. B. Francis, living one mile! This is the proper] The case of Jack Leonard, charged | with burglary, was continued. We noticed E. E. Holt, J. T. Wil- son, R Davis and Oscar Housley among the prominent Hudsonites in attendance at court Tuesday. W. A. Stephens, of Ash Grove, Green county, arrived in the city Tuesday to attend court as a witness in a slander case. . His; | D. Teeter a prosperous farmer and clever gentleman of Ballard |= ; complimented us Tuesday. bright | J.M.S MeManama, one of the best citizens of Mingo township, | with his estimable wife, visited the family of J. R. Jenkins the last of | the week returning home on Sunday. D. N. Thompson informs us he has disposed of the remainder of his last year’s hay crop, at $7.50 per ton. The purchasers taking the hay in the sheds Mr. Thompson from experience argues that no crop pays the farmers better than raising hay. Oar good friend W. E. Wells, of Foster, junior member of the firm of W. A. Ephland & Co, spent Sun- day and Monday visiting his parents northwest of town, returning home Tuesday morning. He was accom- anied by his wife and baby. Robt. Davis. a prosperous farmer, good democrat and splendid fellow, made us a pleasant call Tuesday. He says wheat is excellent, the corn only needing a continuence of rain to make it as good as was ever raised in the county and his meadow fine. Truly the farmers of this county are blessed. The supreme court has confirmed the decision of the lower court in the case of the state against Joseph Howell, convicted of murdering Mrs. Nannie Hall and her four children at their home in Lynn coun ty on the night of January 10th 89 The case was made famous from the fact that the record in the brief had been changed and mutilated. Elbert Thomson, son of our es- teemed citizen D. N. Thompson, president of the Farmer's bank in this city, received the congratula- tions and best wishes of a host of friends Wednesday evening of last week who had assembled at the beau- tiful country home of his father, 4 mile north of tbe city limits, in hon or of his 21st birthday. On account of the inclemency of the weather a large number of those who desired toattend the festivities were prevent edand thus missed one of most pleasant entertainments of the seeson, as quite elaborate prepa- rations had been made by Mr. and Mrs. Thompson to make the occasion agreeable and inviting. Rocked in the cradle of affluence, petted with the hand of indulgent parents, Elbert has gained his major- ity a model young man, beloved by his parents and held in the highest esteem by the people in the com munity in which he has been reared. He has a bright future before him and the Ties wishes him abundant success. To Don Stripes. The criminal calendar for this term of eourt was reached Monday and so far prosecuting attorney Box- ley has ably sustained his reputa- tion as a prosecutor. Of the six eases called for trial, one is granted a continuance, another has been given a jail sentence and four will go to the penitentiary. The four billed for a tree ride to Jeffer- son City to do service for the state are: Elmer McDaniels, gets two years for stealing a horse from E. Carver. The evidence being conclusive he appeared in court Tuesday morning plead gui ty, and asked the mercy of the court. Isaac A.

Burton, two burley buck negroes, indicted for resisting arrest and shooting deputy constable T. A Mayes, of Rich Hill, stood trial aud a hard fight by S. P. Francisco, appointed by the court to defend them, was made, to save them. But justice through the pleadings of Judge Boxley was meted outto them by the jury and each of the prisoners was given a term of two years. Summer Weakness.

It takes a great deal of hard work to get up a celebration. Also, the proper parties must take hold of the matter to insure a suc- cess, otherwise the programme is un- satisfactory to visitors and the affair proves a failure, which is hurtful to the town. A Bates county man sent $2to a snide firm in New York City to learn “How to Get Rich Without Labor.” In a few days he received a reply which reed. “Fish for Suck- ers Like I do.” We will bet a year’s subscription that the aforesaid Bates county man does not take a} Ga- | county paper.—Pleasant Hill zett. _ Ran Away From Home.
