DONOHUE, Gen’! Passenger Agent, Kansas City, Mo. JUDGE JAMES GIBSON. His Availability as a Candidate tor Governor. In considering the ,availability of prospective nominees for governor of Missouri, democrats should care fully weigh the cluims of Judge James Gibson, of Kansas City. This gentleman has qualification for this exalted position rarely found united in one man. As a citizen he is broad, liberal and generous in his ideas No one has ever come in contact with him without realizing that he had met a man whose appreciation of liberty and human rights was such that he was willing to concede to every other person ail the rights inherited by him in an enlightened civilization. In his family,and among his neigh- bors, Judge Gibson occupies an equally elevated plane; none of his acquaintances withholding from him that meed of praise accorded to a gentle, just and generous man. In politics, the distinguished sub- ject of this article is an “Old Ro- man” among democrats. His de- mocracy is the result of honest con viction; is base upon strict fidelity to party principles, and not upon any factional beliefs coming from special construction of party tenets His political contemporaries know this, are fully aware that he is thor- oughly in line with the majority of his party on those principles consti tuting the bulwarks of its strength, and hence it is that, Judge Gibson to carry its colors, the democratic party in Kansas City,at present rent asunder by intestine dissensions, would march in solid column behind him, and save to the organization the six representatives and two state senators from the young metropolis, G.A.R. Encampment Located. Indianapolis, Ind., February 25.— Adjutant General Robbins this af- ternoon authorized publication of the following paragraph from gen- eral orders to be issued this week: “The commander in chief announces that the Chicago Great Wester rail- way, having granted the time limit of thirty days, in territory of the Western Passenger association and the Wisconsin Central, the Minne- apolis and St. Louis and the Soo railroads have also agreed to give the eame uniform rate of 1 cent per wile to and from St. Paul for fifteen days, with the privilege of a fifteen- days’ extension to those who deposit their tickets with the railroad agents at St Paul before the expiration of the fifteen days, thereby securing to all who may attend the same rates and extension hertofore given. The thirtieth annual encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic will be held at St. Paul, Minn., the first week in September, as provided in general orders No. 5, C.

Ses in the approaching United States senatorial contest, and it is of the greatest importance that the demo- cratic nominee shall be a man who can carry Kansas City. Illustrative of Judge Gibson's party fealty. it is a fact that in the last gubernatorial democratic nomi- nating convention, when of the three strongest candidates—Messrs. Stone Dalton and Gibson—it became evi- dent that the former was the choice of the delegates. Mr. Gibson, sink ing his personal disappointment, was the first to fall in ranks and begin the fight that resulted in triumph of Gov. Stone. Of these foremost candidates, one is now governor of Missouri; Col. Dalton is enjoying the rich salary of the collector of the port of St. Louis, while Judge Gib- son has had no reward save that coming from the consciousness of duty well done. Men of this type merit any honors their party may or ean bestow, and should the democrats of Missouri confide the party flag to Jadge Gib. son in the approaching crucial con- test, we have no hesitation in pre- dicting that victory will be the re- sult, and that democracy will reign triumph for another four years at the state capital.—Lamar Democrat.

Fort Scott, Kan., Feb. 26.—A lit tle 3-year-old son of Mrs. Maggie Scott meta singular and horrible fate at 7 o'clock this evening. The glass bowl of a kerosene lamp, which was sitting lighted on a parlor stand began to leak and Mrs. Scott picked it up to carry it from the room. The child stood near her, and as she raised the lamp over his head, the bottom fell from the bowl, precipi tating the oil on the child's clothing and body. In her fright the mother dropped the lamp and the child’s saturated clothing was ignited by the wick blaze. In an instant it was a mass of flames. The mother threw a blanket over the child, but it was horribly burned, ard died a moment later. It was burned frora its feet to its head. Mrs. Scott can not be consoled. pee eer ores ay This is a good time of the year to take Simmons Liver Regulator.

What was} }done yesterday at the proving | grounds was to fire a cast steel shell of six-inch caliber entirely through a seven-inch Harveyized nickel steel plate, through the heavy oak back- ing and twelve feet into the bank of clay behind. This performance has never been equalled by any projec- tile of like caliber in the world. When the Johnson shell slipped so easily through a plate of known high quality the experts yesterday doubted the evidence before their own eyes and immediately took steps to assure themselves ,that the result was not accidental. To this end one of the Wheeler {Sterling shells, all steel armor piercers of the best quality, and equal to the best European sheil, was selected and fired ut the same velocity at the same plate. It was smashed upon the face of the place after a slight penetration, just what was expected from this caliber of shell when fired Then auother of the Johnson shells w the guns and fired at t result was almost preci as with the first shot penetrated with the = and the shot was almost unscathed. The navai experts are much}pleased with the test. They say that these cast steel shells can be made for much less than the expensive forged steel armor pierced shells, that they can be made much more quickly and that they appear to be superior in every respect.

They were the first to make brooms by machinery; the first to put up seeds in little packages; the firat to manufacture cut nails. Now they are out witha method ot curing dyspepsia by resting the stomach. Their remedy is known as the Shaker Digestive Cordial. It supplies food in an artificially digest- ed form and at the same time aids the digestion of other foods in the stomach. In other words, by the use of the Shaker Digestive Cordial, a dyspeptic virtually gets along without the use of his stomach until it is restored to its natural strength; and vigor A single 10 cent bottle | will oft times give marked relief. | ace bottle from your druggist and | ry it | Laxol is the best medicine for children. place of Castor Oil.

Kingsville, Mo., Feb. 25.—A tra- gedy was enacted on the public highway six miles from here this evenining in which James B Evans, | an 18 year old boy, was shot down in cold bloud by Millard James, aged | 50 years, a star route mail contrac- tor. The James and Evans families have been very friendly for a number of years until within the past week, when, for some reason at present unknown, the elder James took a dislike for young Evans. This even ing aoout 6 o'clock James and two companions were driving along the highway in a buggy, when they met young Evans, who was walking. The team was stopped, a few words were spoken by the parties, when James pulled a revolver and fired three builets into the boy, killing him in- stantly. James then jumped into his buggy and escaped.
