Jackson, a laundryman, of Kansas City, resulted in a busg jury. The most remarkable features of the trial were the efforts of the mur‘ered man’s two young daugh- ters to shield his murderer. They displayed a lack of filial affection that was surprising and seemed to enjoy the notoriety they were ob- taming. Dr A. A. Willite delivered his s-cond lecture in our city on last Thureday evening to a large and ap preciative audience. He drew a beautiful picture of the ‘model wife,” one that could but please and benefit. Dr Wollits is old in years but young in vigor of body and mind and is resourceful in anecdotes and illustratiors. Our people are in love with this grand cld man and hope to have him with us again. Mr. John Griggs and Miss Allie Morgan were married Wednesday evening, Oct. 27th, at the home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and Mre Asa Morgan, in tbe south part of the city, Rev. Dr. Jones officiating.

Moses had been trading here right along untilJuly, when he got a jobin the country and he went out to husk pumpkins and shoo chickens and do other heavy work. Moses came to town last Saturday and he wandered in to look at a pair of boots. ‘Say, boss, I done heerd dat you all’s done rise on your boots Nowif youallkan’t sell ne “nother pair ob boots like I done got hyar for tree dollahs last winter we kant trade. Moses had heard that we had raised our boots. So we did. We raised them one shelf higher. We didn’t Raise the Price. Welowered them a trifle. While boots are higher they are lower. We sold Moses a better boot for $2.50 than we soid him for$3.00last year. Don’t think we've ‘raised our boots’ as Moses did. Some other fellow may have raised his that way, but we didn’t. We just made it handier for you to trade with us that’s all. Try our Moses $2.50 boot. Drysdale & Keasling. 3 Lreoennennnnrted : | : ~~ Asytam Board Changes. Jefferson City, Mo..
