The company has brought suit on Hall’s bond for $10,000 Mr. Graves is one of the principal attorneys in the case. Hon J. N. Ballard, of Montrose, was in the city Monday on business. Judge Ballard will be a candidate for State Senator from this district. That Bates county will give him its enthusiastic support in the conven tion there is little doubt. He would make an able and influential senator and the people of this district could well be proud of him. So far as we know he will not have any opposi tion. We see from the Journal Demo crat, that a meeting of farmers in Warrensburg Saturday, for the pur- pose of discussing the subject of iu- fected chinch bugs in the fields, was largely attended. This chinch bug business is a matter of great inter- est to the farmers and the question of getting rid of the pest can not be canvassed too thoroughly. A meet- ing in Butler to exchange ideas and experiences in the trial ef the rem- idies now in vogue would not be a bad idea. A tougher looking or more imp u- ler than were seen at the depot and begging on the streets Thursday. Among the gaug was a number of cripples, being minus an arm or leg. The three or four on the streets that had been sent on a foraging ex- pedition were not only half drunk, dirty and ragged, but they had the cheek of a government mule. A couple of the gang, both cripple by the loss of a hand and foot, were stationed at the north west corner of the square, hailing passersby and asking alms. The city officials should make these dirty vagabonds give Butler a wide berth and in al- lowing them to stand on the street corners and insult people as they pass, the marshal is derelict in his duty. He should promptly give them their walking papers, and if they fail to obey orders then introduce them to the hammer and rock pile. Economy and Strength.

The Rich Hill Review is correct when it says: “Butler is preparing to put the large cooking utensil into the small one on the fourth of July. Butler generally does things up about right on that date.” Yes the fire company has taken hold of the business end of the celebration and chief Ely says he proposes to give Butler such a shaking up on the 4th asshe has never witnessed. The business men are contributing liber- ally to the enterprise and the boys are going at their work of preparing for the celebration in an earnest way, and the indications are the town will be full of music and ablaze with ;meriment on the nations holiday.

Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass. : “Gentlemen: Wishing to tell what Hood's Sar- saparilla has done for us, I will say that 3 years ago we had a beautiful boy bornto us. When about six months old he took a sore mouth. Everything that was known as usual remedies in such cases was used. I had two doctors but alltono benefit. At the age of 11 months he breathed his last. Thus we laid Our Darling Child in the grave. On Aug. 4, 1891, another boy was born unto us. At the age of two months he be- came afflicted with the same disease. I believed the boy’s trouble was constitutional, and not common sore mouth. I procured a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla and commenced to give it regularly to both mother and baby, and occa sionly washed his mouth with a syrup of buck brush root. Improvement began atonce. We have succeed in eradicating the scrofulous blood from the system and to-day we are blessed with anice, fat baby boy, eighteen months old. He is the very Picture of Health, all life and full of mischief—thanks to Hood's Sarsaparilla. I am a minister in the Methodist Protestant church. Lamhere to back what I say and Iam inno way interested in any profit in the matter, except it affords me much pleas- ure to recommend Hood’s Sarsaparilis to ali as Hood’s:Cures @ safe, sure remedy. Even my wife, after taking Hood's became healthy and fieshy and has the bloom of girlhood again. We have used only three bottles, but I keep itin the house.” Rev. J. M.
