She lived with an | aged mother, and being out of em ployment, and fearing her mother would come to want, took her life; that she might secure a life insur ance of $2,000 which she carried. During the seventy-three years of Missouri's statehood she has had 28 governors and only three of them | wer e native born. States senators from this state only two of them were born in this state Senator F. M. Cockrell is one of them. We see from the Democrat that Chnton came near having a disas- trous fire Friday night last. The fire originated in the stairway be- tween Bixman’s saloon and Collier's grocery store. The buildivg belong- +d to Salmon & Salmon and the lamages amounted to $500. The Democrat saysit was purely the work of a fire bug. The fire bell Sunday morning brought out the department on short order. The supposed fire was in the south part of town and turn ed out to be a chimney flue burning out. The boys made a quick run just the same. The fire boys should be careful in tying the hose carts to wagons and then allowing the driver to whip the horses into a dead run. Che carts are very strong, but they were not made to stand such treat ment. A move is on foot to bridge the Missouri river at Jefferson City. A bonus of $50,000 hae been raised and articles ef incorporation filed with the county. Ifthe bridge en terprise proves a success, it is the intenticn of the promoters to oper ate a line of electric railway oyer the brige to connect with the Chicago & Alton railroad. It is said soundings and surveys will be commenced at once and steps taken to secure a charter from congress. To The Farmers of Bates County.
