there on That is, for some stipation, any of th ing bre will wot Recently T. J. Day purchased a very fine driving horse from R. N. Allen, of New Home and on Mon- day it died. Mr. Day very much attached to the horse,be- sides the pecuniary loss, which was considerable. Senator Voorhees, in a private let ter from Washington conveys the information that he will retire from public life at the expi:ation of his term of cfice. The senator has been failing in health for the past year and it is his enfeebled condition which has caused him to reach the i decision. The Colorado state republican convention sends a solid silver dele- gation to St. Louis. Senator Teller heads the delegation and he has plainly and unmistakably given no- tice that if silver is not given a show in the platform at St. Louis, Colora- do will walk out of the convention and refuse to support the republi- can nominee. A tragedy of unusual order oceur- red near Ozark, Mo., Tuesday. Mrs. John Edmonds was watching by the cradle of a sick child near an open fire place, when the tired mother, } worn out with anxiety and loss of } sleep, fell into a deze. The woman was aroused by the cries of other members of the family and found i the cradle of the little one ablaze , and her own clothes on fire. When the flames had been extinguished a charred corpse was found in the cradle.—Stockton Journal. Warrensburg, Mo., May 13.—Jerry Gallivan, a farmer living south of the city, went to his pantry to geta cup. He put his hand inside and was severely bitten by a snake, ‘ which had gained entrance in some way. He mounted a horse and rode 5 to Warrensburg, but by the time be reached here his arm was swollen to the shoulder. The snake bite was dressed by a local physician, and Mr. Gallivan will probably recover. It is not known what kind of a snake it was. If people will only quit grumbling and get down to business with a cheerful determination to succeed in spite of bard times, there soon would not be any of that article. The panic of 1893 was a panic of doubt and distrust, and the trouble ever since has been caused by a sort of business cowardice and unreason- ing fear. The outlook for the crops is the best ever known all over the country, and the prosperity of the farmer should be, and generally is, the measure of the prosperity of the rest of us. Let us dismiss the silly notion that the government cap help us, and make up our minds to help ourselves The government can not raise the price of a bushel of wheat | ora pound of meat.—K. C. Times. Herman P. Faris, of Clinton, has received =the prohibition nomination for governor of this state. Of course, it does not make much difference as to who is the nominee of this party, so far as dan- ger of his election is concerned, but it does show weakness in the prohibition had become} party to put at the! head of its ticketa manof Faris’ | calibre. Personally, Mr. Faris is a) real nice clever little gentleman and | iz he deserves credit for having raised t himself from errand boy in Brinker-| hoff’s abstract office to the important position he now holds in the Brink- erhoft Faris Trust and Savings Com pany, but this does not alter the case that the party must have been in great straits at their Sedalia con-! vention for gubernatorial timber Your Physical Condition Needs attention at this time.

When brother Austin, of the Re- cord, went tothe republican state convention at St. Joseph last week it was hard for him to tell which of the two, Chauncey I. Filley or shot- a hole-through his-hat Webster Da vis, he thought the most of. He is now that Webster D. has teo much mouth and too little brains, and that the aforesaid Webster murdered his chances as a gubernatorial prospect when, in his speech nominating A. P. A. Jones as a delegate at large to the St. Louis convention. he bitterly assailed the character and political standing of Maj. Warner. Said Mr. Austin, “Webster Davis made a com plete fool of himself before the con- vention and effectually knocked out his chances as a prospective candi date before the Springtield conven tion.” The sum and substance of the matter ie, Webster Davis is a puffed up nothing, a gigantic fraud with a hole in his face two sizes too large for his mental calibre.” Disgruntled Republicans. Carthage, Mo., May 16.—There is much suppressed dissatisfaction among the Republicans of this vi- cinity over the financial plank of the platform adopted at the St. Joseph convention. Mauy declare that if this is a forecast of what the St. Louis convention will have to say on the financial question, they will vote for Bland, and in case he is not nom inated, they will support the nomi- nee of the silver party. The Evening Press, a local repub- can organ which carries the motto, “Bimetalism and Protection” at its masthead, denounces the St. Joseph utterances as un republican aud de clares that Judge Burton, the repub lican candidate for Congress in this district, who was nominated on a platform declazing for the free coin age of the American prodact of sil- ver, will have to repudiate the State platform as he did two years ago, if he is re elected. Mingo Items. Heavy rains on Saturday. As James Burns was returning from Urichinatwo horse buggy he went to cross Cove creek, between secs 13 and 24 known as the Ewing ford, his team, buggy and all, was washed down stream, } mile. Burns barely escaped with his life and his horses were nearly drowned when rescued. He hac Jin his coat, which with his s and cushion floated to the river and were never recovered. The ford is very steepand swift, with 4 feet fallin 40 feet. It has four branches, eaeh one from 5 to 8 miles long and all connect before reaching thee ing, so that when the river ral it backs up tothe ford, making it dangerous. During the heavy rains last year, the ford was not passable for 16 days. We need a bridge here very bad, as jthe only one we have is on Grand river and Cass Co built one-half of it. We have asked the County Court several times to build us a bridge and hope they will do so this fall. Grass and fruit are extra; womne: moles and mice are taking the cx Constant READER OF THE Tins.
