If they do not comply the road supervisors must have the work done and the cost taxed upon the farm adjacent. Tho road sapervisor is liable to arrest and fine for mis- demeinor if he does not enferce the law in due season.” As far as our observation goes the above law is a dead letter in Bates county. The Trxes welcomes W. H. Cook and family of Rich Hill, to Butler. Mr. Ccok has secured a _ position in the American Clothing Heuse, as manager and salesman of boot and shoe department. The trade will find Mr. Cook a straight, relia- le and pleasant gentleman to do business with.

It is astonishing the low prices he is making on clothing, hats, furnishing goods, ete The new protective tariff cuts no figure with him. He states that in 30 years’ continued experience in the clothing business he never purchas ed goods as low in price as this season. Being an expert buyer, he gotthe advantage of extreme low figures. His lower room is 18x100 feet de2p, the upper room 35x75; both rooms are filled with choice men’s, boys and childrens wearing apparel. People buying fall and winter clothing will do well to see him; he is a big money saver for the public. Eternal Vigilance Is the price of perfect health.

Dr. Robnson, superintendent of the asylum, in whose care Waite has been since his confinement in that institution, says Waite suffered no mental aberration at the time of his reception at the asylum and that he was a nervous little fellow with a bright mind, and that his behavior had been good and his manner courteous at all times. Waite, previous to the killing of Landa, had been confined in an asy- lum at Boston. He was taken there for treatment of a depressed skull, the injury having been sustained from a blow inflicted with a sand bag by a foot pad. Murdered In a Cornfield.

Mills, Butler's ver- | erable and esteemed citizen, turned ; his eightie|h mile post Monday. He is enjoying excellent health for a man of his years and gets about | with the ease and agility of a man many years his junior. He came to Butler in 1878, and from Kentucky to Missouri in 1839, locating in Clay county. His mind is s‘ill as clearas a bell, and he is an interesting talker on the early history of the State, and of the good times and the trials and tribulations of the pioneer. Po litically “Dad” Mills is a Democrat of the Jackson echool aud in bis younger days always took a promi- pent and leadisg part in the councils | of tke party. Tho Tres hopes to see the cycle deal as kindly with him as with his brother in his Kentucky home, who was permitted to resch the age of 96 yeare. The Tives regrets very much to learn of the precicament Geo. Wells of Spruce township has gotten him- self into The charge against him and for which he has been arrested and will have to stand trial is for ob- taining money under false pretenses. Wells drew his check for $10 ona Montrose bank and got the cash on it from County Treasurer A. B. Owen. He bad no money in the bank to meet the obli- gat‘on and the ekeck was returned protested, which added $250 more to the debt. We understand this is cot the only offense of the kind the young man is guilty of, and that D. A. Colyer, D. E Vandergrift, Aub- rey Ewing and A. E. Beatty are vic- tims of his confidencs. Getting money under false pretenses is a very serious offense and it is to be regretted that George. in an un- guarded moment, should so far for- get himse'f ss to take advantage of friends, who trusted in bis bonesty sively proves and manhood only to be deceived. | tee). bias | However, the Trwes hopes he may ibe able to straighten up matters | with the injured parties, that theex i tr jenforeed learned woul ithe young man \ that honesty is the best and safest policy to pursue.
