The Globe printing office at Hume was destroyed by fire one night last week. The fire was the work of an incendiary as it was started in the middle of the composing room. Loss is put at $3,500, insurance, $1,400. Harvest hands are reported to be very scarce in Minnesota, and the farmers find it difficult to secure help at $35 and $40 per month. This may account for the silence of Mc- Kinley the past two weeks, as he has neither made a speech nor been interviewed. “Have tried others, but like Ayer’s best” is the statement made over and over again by those who testify to the benefit derived from the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.

Silvers came down from Butler on Saturday to visit his family, lately moved to Springfield and located near the Normal school. Some important legal business necessitated Mr. Silvers remaining in Butler for some time. He is an able lawyer and a first-class christian gentleman and the Commoner hearti- ly welcomes him to Springtield and bespeaks for him a liberal patronage. —Commoner. The latest edition to the Tres’ editorial staff, making his home with the editor-in-chief, wishes to thank the young ladies and gentlemen of serenading party Monday evening for their excellent music. He did not appear in person to thank them, but trust they wil) overlook this seeming discourtesy,as his physician had given him positive instruction against exposing himself to the night air. A soap faker has been taking in the ladies at Nevada. He calls at the house in the absence of the hus- band and induces the lady to buy a box of about one dozen cakes of soap for $1, and representa that with the purchase of the soap he will send in about two weeks a Haviland china tea set of 60 pieces. On these terms, says the Post, sev eral ladies were induced to purchase soap. A Nevada merchant estimates the value of such a tea set at $17 or! $18 and it looks ludicrous for even| & soap peddier to make such a proposition and more so for sensible people to secept the statements of oily tongued rascals. But then, it is said, the world is made up of all kinds of and the bigger the humbug the better it takes. ~BIGREDUCTIONS | —— IN —— LIGHT WEIGHT GLOTHING AT PRICES WHICH Mens Suits from Boy suits from Childrens suits from $2.00 to all wool at 1.75 to all wool at 50 to all wool at Mens pants 65c, $1, $1.25, $1.50, $2, $2.50 $3, $4, Boys pants, 50c, 75c, $1.00, $1.25 $1.50, $2.

Vague and various have.been the reports in circulation concerning the recent departure of Mr. W. M Burrows, of the Prairie City neigh borhood. The worst was that he had left town with an improper wo- man. This was run down by a Review reporter and found to be falee, for the reason that the woman is still here. It is not necessary to repeat these different tales all of which seem to have arisen from the disposal of Mr. B’s property; but in order to set at rest the most of them at least, we will give what seems the best authenticated expla- nation we have heard. It is this: Years ago Mr. Burrows and his brother, Charles, owned large farms together, which since the latter's death have been under the manage- | ment and control of the former. Chas. Burrows left several heirs, who have made their home with their uncle all this time. Three of these are boys and about grown. Of late these boys have been desir- ous of coming into their portion. Mr. Burrows, as we understand it, has put them off from time untul last | week for the reason that there was some indebtedness which he wanted | to clear up before making a general division. In response to clamor for a settlement he and all | interested agreed on this plan: Mr. | Burrows was to convey a half inter- interest (his own) in the property to | his wife and the other half in equal | proportion among the different heirs | —the children of his brotber. Hav- | ing no children of his own, he didj this, then in e pique or out of a de- sire to get away from his regular | routine he took the train fora trip east, his objective point beiag Ohio. The property in question consists’ of S00 or more acres of land, worth | return.” '“Your condition Mra. W. W. Graves entertained a number of her lady friends at her pleasant heme one evening last week. The occasion being a lawn social. Little Miss Hazel Ludwick did the receiving very gracefully, while Mrs. C. A. Denton served fruit punch. The guests invited were: Mesdames Weiner, Levy, Altman, Glark, Wallace, Clardy, J. L.

Anexchange says that a county superintendent in a reighboring county recently asked every teacher in the county institute who took their local paper to hold up their bands and out of about one hundred only six responded, at which he ex- pressed surprise and said, “You don’t spend one dollar a year with these papers, yet you expect them to print, free of charge,notice of in- stitutes, insert long programs of same, and a full report of what you |do on these occasions and thus ex- peet them to advertise you and your abilities in your chosen profession, their | thus assisting you to climb the lad- der to higher positions and better salaries without a cent’s postage in He closed by saying: in this matter would lead me, were I an editor of these papers, to promptly throw into the waste basket any communication sent to me by the society, the mem bers of which are too stingy to take a paper, or if I inserted it, to demand full advertising rates for every line published.” Never Seriously Regarded, $30,000 to $40,000 perhaps, besides | Marshal Democret News $14,000 worth of personal§property, embracing several hundred head of cattle and other live stock. The in- debtedness, which is provided for is said to amount to about $10,000. A friend of Mr. B. says every dollar he owes will be promptly paid and that Mr. Burrows will return when he has completed his visit. Besides this property, Mr. Bur- rows carried considerable life insur- ance, the policies for which were all turned over to his wife ere he left and this has caused some speculation in the minds of the gossips. Awarded Highest Honors—World’s Fais. BAKIN POWDER MOST PERFECT MADE. A pure Grape Cream of Tartar Powder. Free from Ammonia, Alum or any other adulterant, 4C YEARS THE STANDARD. The Butler Democrat, published at Butler, Bates county, Mo, bas been persistently booming Gen. Joe. Shelby for governor for the past year and sending marked copies cf his paper to the four winds of Heaven, hoping to get an ally in the cause. This week we received the paper. and the following article was marked in red lines: “We will tell you what we will venture, as we never bet; that Gen. Shelby, at the head of the Demo cratic State ticket, will not only pull the State Democracy through, but congressmen and tickets in doubtful counties. This we only mention in case you are at all alarm- ed’ about carrying the State next time.” We are not alarmed about carry- ing the State next year and feel that the aforesaid editor is but making Gen. Shelby ridiculous in the eyes of his friends. The general wasa brilliant, dashing officer of as good and true soldiers as ever the sun shone on and is now making an ac- | ceptable marshal of the United States, but probably no one save the editor above mention ever seriously regarded him as a guberratorial pos- sibility. BRIDE ABANDONED. “A sad case of desertion was re- ported to Chief of Police Serviss yesterday,’ says the Kaneas City Journal.of the 19th. “Yesterday morning a neatly dress- ed young lady called on Chief of Police Serviss and related between | sobs and sighs a most pitiful story. | She gaye her name as Mrs. Robert {Sbannon, formerly Miss Delilah |Smith of Clinton, Mo. According to her story her father and mother ing with friends and distant rela |tives. Last February, while work | Mo., she became acquainted with | Robert Shannon, of this city. The jacquaintance developed into court- ;ship and asa result they were en- | gaged to be married. A short time | ago young Shannon enticed the girl | to come to Kansas City and prepare for the wedding. She consented | and moved all her worldly effects to this city. Upon her arrival here |} she was informed that the marriage | would nave to be postponed. This was a big disappointment to her, as she was unable te pay for board and lodgiug and consequently she was compelled to goto work She found employment in a private family there till last Tuesday, when Shan- non called for her. He told her that he had furnished up a home in Kansas City, Kans., and that he was |ready to marry her. They boarded ja street car and went direct to the probate court of this city and were married. After securing a marriage certificate young Shannon took the girl to the home of his sister, Mrs. Thompson, of 740 Garfield avenue, where they remained until Thursday when she alleges that Frank Shannon, a brother of Robert, called and pro- ceeded to abuse her in a shameful manner. She claimed he abused his brother for marrying her. On Thursday Shannon took the girl to a notorious resort on the Missouri side where he remained with her un- til night. About nine o'clock he took her out walking and after reach- ing a degraded locality inthe weat bottoms he left her standing in front of a saloon while be went inside. She remained in front of the saloon for fully an hour but her husband failed to return. She wae finally compelled to leave the locality by a gang of ruffians. The unfortunate girl returned to the house where her husband had secured lodging and remained there all night. “Chief Servise, after hearing her story, fearing that she might com- mit suicide sent her to the Huron hotel and employed a lady to watch her. Warrants have been issued for both Frank and Robert Shannon “Chief Serviss stated yesterday that he was satisfied that the story told by the girl was true and that he would not leave a stone un- turned until he had both men behind the bars. He refused to allow the reporter to interview the girl, as he claimed a rehearsal of her story might affect her mind.” Can these be the Shannon boys who formerly lived in Butler, as the names are similar? Senator Quay of Pennsylvania says Mr. Cleveland will again be nominat ed by the democrats for the presi- dency and that he will be a moat dangerous man fur the rebeblicans to confront. He also predicts the nomination of Reed or McKinley. Quay has a polite way of talking through his hat, to keep his name in the newspapers.
