The proper way to build health is to make the blood rich and pure by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla, the one pure blood purifier. Sedalia had three business failures last week, regardless of the wave of prosperity which is supposed to ba sweeping over the country. The post office at Wilton, Boone county, waa robbed Saturday night of one thousand dollars in money, stamps and goods. Mrs. J. D. Allen and her three boys are visiting relatives and friends in St. Louis. She was ac companied by Miss Myrtle Morgan. Jobn Scudder, a miner at Webb City, coming out of his shaft Mon- day evening, fell 150 feet and was instantly killed. He leaves a wife and four children. Thbres masked robbers in Omaha, Nebraska, Monday night stood ten citizens up in line and robbed each of $10 to $100. The victims were members of a social party who had taken possession of a beer garden in the heart of the city for a little entertainment. An exchange enye: The Supreme Court has decided that poultry run- ting at large is wild game and the party on whom they trespass has a right to kill them. This decision should have been reached long since. Chickens runing at large in town causes more ill will and neighbor- hood trouble than any other one thing and we hope tho law will be enforced. The Corbett-Fitzsimmons Contest, the greatest of modern times, will be shown at the Opera House Sept 22, Wednesday night, by the veri scope. This is being exhibited in all parts of the world and witnessed by the very best people. Butler is cer tainly fortunate to secure this attrac tion, the same company that gave the exhibition at the Grand Opera House, at Kansas City. Rev.

T. B. Blythe, one of the richest jand best known farmers of Boone county, Mo, residing about 12 miles southeast of Columbia, committed suicide Friday in a field near his home.

He took an ounce of laudanum and shot himself in the left breast. The Clinton Democrat is as crabid as an old maid this week, all on ac- count of being fleeced out of an ad- vertising bill by one “Dr.” M. L. Smitb, a tramp occulist of neat ap pearance, good address and fond of billiard. When the Democrat looks make his home in Appleton City soon. He has leased the storeroom inthe I. 0. O.

The Rich Hill Review says: ‘The water question in this section is, 28 we have already stated, getting seri ous. John Waller is kept going from morning till night with his tanks, and still he is unable to sup ply the demands of our citizens Some of the nearby farmers even are coming to town for water Mr. Wm. Wear, of north of the city, contract ed with Mr Waller for water this morning. There will be one benefit derived at least. It will give the people an opportunity to clean out their wells and cisterns. If this is done it is safe to say there will be less sickness in the community for some time to come.” There Is Nothing So Good. There is nothing just as good as Dr. King’s New Discovery for Con- sumption, Coughs and Colds, so de- mand it and do not permit the dealer to sell you some substitute. He will not claim there is any thing better, but in order to make more profit he may claim something else to be just as good. You want Dr King's New Discovery because you know it to be safe and reliable, and guaranteed to do good or money refunded.

We bad the pleasure of visiting the new Hotel Ross and were agreeably surpised at the complete metamorphosis that it has under- gone from top to bottom; the electrical appa- ratus; incandescert lights in all the rooms; return bells and push buttons in every con- evivable place. The plumbing is beantiful open nickel work, strictly sanitary; hot and cold marble wash room, modern toilet rooms and splendid porcelain bath with all the lux- urlous appliances, spray, shower, fountain, eto = The inside has been elaborately decorat- ed with an effect that the last part you visit leaves the impression of being the most teanti- ful; especially is this so of the offics and dining nall which are artistic in cove ceilings, gilt panels and hard wood floors. The outside is quite apparent in light salmon and blood-red trimmings. The furnishings are everything that could be desired iniron, oak and maple, being the wish of the owners to make it more club-like than hotel The dining service will be table d’hotel with individual tea and coffee urns, soup tnreens, decorated shell chinaware, etc. The citizens of Batler omparing this hotel faverably with other country reserts, should not lose sight of the fact that the entire expenditure of som 00 Was placed with our merchants and that this is the only hos- telry of any importance in the state that ob- tain their supplies at home instead of at hotel supply depots.

A shot wes fired by some unknown party from the rear, and Houston fell from the bench with a fatal wound in his back, the bullet having penetrated the liver and iniesfines. Parties who came in from the Springs to day say opinion is divided as to whether it was an attempt at assassination or the shot was tired at random and accidentally struck Houston. who is a relative of Col. Thomas F. Heus ton, the pioneer who laid out the villsge of Houstonia.
