If the late republican legislature did anything commendable at Jef- ferson City, their press is not plae- ing it before the people. Rev. J. F. Watkins and Judge D. V. Brown,were in Kansas City Tues- day attending Presbytery of the First Presbyterian church. The Bates county farmer who is feeding cattle is in the swim this season, as the spring in the market is sending beef cattle to the highest notch. Sam'l Brown, aged 76 years, and one of the wealthiest men in Saline county died the other day. He has for some time been supporting a missionary in Africa. Friday night the policeman on duty at Rich Hill, emptied his re volver at three night prowlers, who returned the compliment in regular Dalton style. Nobody hurt Gen.

Joe Meyer, THE CLOTHIER Thompson McDaniels, of Kansas City aged 90 years anda soldier in the Black Hawk war, died Friday after an illuess of one hour. The city council can save consid- derable money to the town by mak- ing their meeting nights one night in each month. There seems to be no reasonable excuse for weekly | meetings unless it be to draw their salaries. The suit of Oscar Wilde against the Marquis of Queensbury for slan- der in the London courts came to a} sudden and unexpected termination | by Wilde dissmissing the suit. Then Wilde was arrested and placed in jail.

Uncle Fred Cobb, elected justice of the peace of Mt Pleasant town- ship at the recent township election on the democratic ticket has refused to qualify. He gives as a reason that he was not made a member of the township board, the only oftice he cared to fill. The store of Taggart & Hamilton at Adrian was burglarized Thursday night and the safe blown. Thieves carried off a book containing notes, two or three revolvers and possibly others articles which the firm could not miss on a hurried examination. There was no money in the safe and if the thieves were looking for that article they were disappointed. Not a nominee on the citizens’ aldermanic ticket elected in this city Tuesday of last week, was or ever bas been a populist. Three men on the ticket, Carpenter, VanCamp and Sprague were democrats, and just where Atkeson gets so much con- solation we are at a loss to see. In the township election a week before, where party lines were drawn and Atkeson had a ticket in the field he was completely skunked. Andy Hackett of the Hich Hill Populist says republicans went to bed with the democrats in the Osage township election. If this be true, would like to know who the popu list of the same township went to bed with in the vote for school com missioner. The vote stood, Rich Hill, democrat, 600; popululist, 192; republicans, 22; old Rich Hill, dem. 9; pop, 0; rep, 0; Lightfoot dem, 28; pop, 0; rep, 0. Ed. S. Austin, late of the Record | of this city, has taken charge of the | Courier, a small daily paper at Jef. | ferson City. The management of « daily paper at the capital is quite an undertaking, yet Col. Ed. has three essentials which are absolutely nec- | essary in the premises, nerve, rustle and sand and if these elements will make her go we predict che Courier | will be a success. Anyhow, the Colonel has the best wishes of the | Ties that he may become a wil- lionaire. | The telegrapa announces a suarp j advance in beef cattle at Philadel- phia, and prominent cattle dealers jsay good stock will be high until the 4th of July, as cattle are scarce all over the country. One of the veteran butchers said the price of beef cattle is beginning to come up to the times of 1881, when the butchers paid 10c a pound for live cattle, and they were hard to get at that. The {cause of the advance Jas. D. Harper renews for "76 and} has his address changed from But-| | ler to Spruce. Baldwin, Kans., is afraid of small| pox and asks the state board of health to quarantine the town against Ottawa Mrs. Henry Kroeg, of Washington was fatally burned by coa! oil Friday, She attempted to start a fire in the kitchen stove and the can of oil ex- ploded. The total bonded debt of Nevada is $31,000. We would advise the | council of Butler to keep a sharp financial outlook that this city does not migrate in the same direction. It is quite laughable to look over! many of the returns from the school districts for school commissioner Some precincts simply sent in the ballots, while another would send in asheet of paper with the simple announcement: ‘Thurman got most of the votes,’ another would say ‘Thurman away ahead’ and so on. The county clerk in such cases could not make heads nor tails of such re- turns and they were promptly con- signed to the waste basket. The Nevada Mail says a boy nam- ed John Stirson, living in that city, while stealing a ride fell between the cars at the first station south of Bronaugh, on the Nevada and Min den road, Friday and was terribly injured, his left ankle being almost ground off by the wheels, while the thigh of the right leg was fearfully crushed, The left foot was ampu tated by the physicians and the frag- ments of bones was removed from the other and the larger bores brought together with the hopes that the leg might be saved. The boy had been a boot black on the streets and had no home. The trial of Walter Crabtree at Osceola, last week, resulted in a hung jury, eight of the jurors vot- ing for acquittal and four for murder in the second degree. This case was taken from Henry county on a change of venue. It will be remem- bered that Walter Crabtree shot and killed a bar keeper at Deep Water something over a year ago. The plea was self defense and those present say that Messrs. Graves & Clark made a very strong and able defense, the case being managed ad- mirably. The case was of much io terest here on account of young Crabtree’s popularity, and his large family connection, and a number of citizens of this city and county were present as witnessee. Mr. Crabtree gave bond and the case was carried over to the next term of court, in Julv. Mr. and Mrs. Mike Curry’s two | children, Frank and Sallie, drove up to the bakery on the east side of the square Monday evening at 6 o'clock in the family phaeton and while the little boy was out of the vehicle, the horse toek fright and dashed down the suuth side of the square and out Dakota street west at full speed. The horse was free to run and the the little girl clinging to the seat, screamed as she passed around the square at every jump of the animal. As the horse went along the streets there was many willing hands that would gladly have assisted her but were powerless to do anything. An attempt was made at the Elkhorn stable to stop the fleeing animal by C. B. Lewis and others but to no purpose. Mr. Lewis then saddled a horse and captured the runaway near the west school building. Strange to relate no damage was done, aside lilor or) Thos.

The Osceola papers are agitating the proposition of daming the Osage | river at that place, and making use manufacturing purposes. It might prove a beneficial move for the town. The material for doing the work is close at hand and the expense of the experiment would certainly be worth the trial. It takes enterpris- ing citizens to build up a town and if Osceola ever expects to do any- thing im the nature of advancement it is high time to put the grand fath- ers in rocking chairs and new and fresh blood to the front.
