The Union says the populist state out of money. Not even enough in the treasury to buy postage stamps.

Allison, now residing in Cal- ifornia, sends us a renewal for his paper. His many friends in this section will be glad to learn he is doing well. Dr. Boulware has a chestnut tree growing in his yard which is loaded with chestnuts) The tree is a good size and is covered with little thorns. It is quite a curiousity. The convention of the Christian church, of Clinton district, is in session in this city and is well at- tended. Rev. Davis, of Clinton, preached the convention sermon. Power Bros. have let the contract for their residence, which will be among the finest in the city. The contract calls for twelve rooms, two stories high, with kitchen, bath room, etc. Ed Childs is reported to be very sick. Monday night he suffered with lock bowels, and had a close call. Tuesday morning he was some bet- ter and at night he was again worse. Arthur Morris will leave in a few days for Chicago to enter an art school. He has a taste in this di- rection and intends to spend a year in cultivation and traming. He isa bright and exemplary young man and the Tres hopes to hear of him making his mark in the world. The populist are having an uphill business this year talking against the big corn crop,the steady advance in wages of laboring men and the general wave of prosperity sweeping from the Atlantic to the Pacific, and the poor old republican party is in about the same boat. Fet Wheaton has secured a posi- tion in the new store of the Model Clothing company, just being open- ed next door to Deacon Bros. & Co. Fet is a good salesman, has an ex- tensive acquaintance in the county and will make the Model a number one salesman. Jerry Simpson is the best drawing card the populists have in the field, but then the party pay dear for the card, as Jerry is not canvassing and speaking for his health or the good of the cause. It is the pay he re- ceives which prompts him to be so zealous in the cause. Uncle Geo. Alspaugh, who has been spending several months at Eldorado Springs for his health, re turned home Friday much improv- tend the G. A. R. camp. After spending a couple of weeks at home he expects to return to the springs. A large number of farmers from Nebraska, Iowa and Illinois, are patrolling our county in quest of land. For the past week or so the Clardy & Bruner real estate firm have had their hands full showing and selling farms. Last week this firm had about twenty men in tow and their carriages were flying in ; every directior.

Jerry and Stump are doing no such thing, they are! receiying good pay for their services and if they were not they would not be in the speech making business. Dr. J. T. Hull, graduate of the Louisville, Ky., College of Dentistry and, who until a few days ago has been connected with Dr. Risley, has opened dental parlors for himself in the room recently vacated by the Chas. Hagedorn photographer, on the north side of the square. His office rooms have been thoroughly renovated and the new furniture and fixtures and the splendid ventilation makes very inviting quarters. Dr. Hull bears the reputation of being one of the most scientific den tists, and those needing his sevices will not be disappointed in his work. From our young farmer friend George McNeil, of Burdette neigh- borhood, who called last week, we learned of the sad death of Miss Marshall, by suicide, on Thursday the 15th inst. She was making her home with her brother, W. R. Mar- shall, when the fatal dose of strych- nine was taken. She took the drug about 11 o'clock a. m. and died at 2 p.m. No reason was given by the young lady for self destauction. She stated, however, that if her life was spared she would not again attempt to take it. Miss Marshall was an} excellen young lady and beloyed by all who knew her. The funeral the following day was largely attended. From parties who have been to Rich Hill overland the past week we learn that the grade on the south side of the river leading to the bridge at Cornland is in a deplora- ble and impassible condition. and it is almost impossible for a span of horses to drag an empty wagon through the bottom. This road perhaps is one of the most promi- nent thoroughfares in the county, and it's a shame that it’s grade is allowed to get in such a condition. However, there seems to be but one permanent way to fix it and that is to macadamize the same, and it ought to be done. The township board should not neglect the mat- ter longer. Good roads is the very life and salvation of a county, and Bates is rich enough to have them. The fourth and last quarterly meeting of the M. E church, south, jfor this conference year was held Monday night. Rey. Robb preach ed his last sermon Sunday for this yearin this city. Next Sunday he will go to Vernon county and hold quar terly meeting for the elder at a sta- tion near Nevada. Rev. Robb has been with us for the past two years, and no minister whe has ever beld the place leaves with more devoted friends than he and bis family. He is not what you would call an elo quent preacher, but his sermons are plain, logical, and full of good thoughts and on this account he is entertaining and instructive. Should he be sent to another field by con ference he will be missed in this city. The Tivrs wishes him well. | A prisoner named McIntire, ove of the men jailed for attempting to burglarize Sprague’s store, pulled his freight Thursday evening last, jand up to date he is still absent. | Tbe sheriff had him asssisting in tearing down the old jail, and he complained of feeling sick and asked | this | Jas.

Our esteemed young friend Geo. | McNeil, of Burdett, was in to see us the other day and renewed his sub- scription. George is one of Bates | county's solid young farmers, and we are glad to learn he is doing} well. Mrs. G. W. Mitchell, of Summit | township took the premium at the | Rich Hill fair last week for the best worsted quilt and the best rag rug.

This year he tells us his | wheat turned out 30 bushels to the | acre and he saved it in good shape. | He also has a fine crop of corn.

Mr. and Mrs. Harman; make this move for the purpose of | giving their children the advantage of un education. Two of the girls, | Misses Myrtle and Stella, will enter | the Normal. Mr. and Mrs. H. are| devoted to their daughters and are | making sacrifices and are not sparing | money to give them the very best; education they can take. The young | ladies are also fine musicians and | this part of their training will also be looked after with care. | E. C. Turner, representing the, North-West Publishing Company, is | now delivering the Bates County Atlas This is oue of the most com- | plete works of the kind that ever came to our notice. A separate page is devoted to each township and town. The owner's name is printed - on each tract of land; county roads, streams etc., are laid out, and is di- vided into school districts. First in the book comes a map of the United States, the State of Missouri, Bates County, township and towns. The> paper is the very finest obtainable, | the printing excellent. In fact it | fills a long felt want, and the Times | feels like congratulating these gen- tlemen upon the excellence of their work. Tha attention of of our readers is directed to the advertisement of J. F. Ludwick, who recently purchased the building and stock of drugs of Dr. Morris. Mr. Ludwick is a first- class druggist and carries a full line 'of drugs, patent medicines, wall paper, stationery, school books, etc. | Call and see him.
