Miss Elsie Baker of Montrose, Mo., came to Kansas City recently to be near Robert Patterson, to whom she was engaged to be married. Last week she fell seriously ill and the doe- tors said she could not recover. “Twant you to send for Mr. Pat- terson,” said she, “for I want to marry before I die.” Patterson hurried to the wood hotel at 1306 Grand avenue, where Miss Baker was living. That was Friday morning. Arrangements were made for the marriage that af- ternoon. Justice Spengler was called to the hotel to perform the ceremony. Miss Baker was too illto stand up. She sat up in bed but was so weak that she could hardly repeat the words of the ceremony. After the marriage the young woman bec: rapidly worse. Late Saturday n she died. When her father, who is traveling in Wisconsin, can be reached the fun- eral arrangements will bemade.

Below we publish a sketeh of John Atkison, taken from the Old Settlers” History of this county. He was one of Butler's wealthiest citizens and his had been a very active life. Of late years he had lived very unpreten- tiously : John Atkison was born in Kana- wha county, West Virginia, Nov. 12, 1815. He lived there until grown on a farm, and attended school only six months, traveling three miles over a high mountain to and from. His father died when he Was twenty years old. His mother then moved to Ohio with a family of seven children and settled in Mercer county. He married Hannah Catterlin June 18, 1840. While living there he was elected and commissioned a justice of the peace. After that he was elected eaptain of a militia company under the existing laws of Ohio, and was commissioned by the governor. Two children were bern there. They then moved to Missouri in a two-horse wagon in 1844, and settled near Ot- terville in Cooper county, nine child- ren being born to them while living 1 box axle grease 03 501b best high patent flour 90 1 can good salmon 10 | 501b Family flour 50 1 3tb cans Bartlett pears 25 | 251b Patent flour 1 3tb egg plums 10 | 25lb Good Straight Patent flour 35] And so we go all through our stock of Groceries, Dry Goods and Shoes.
