One of the most heart-rending ae- cidents that ever happened in our county, occurred in Mound township last week in which little Dell, the 11- vear-old son of Grant Wolfe, lost his life. The little fellow was returning from his uncle Chas. Fri’s with some eggs, which he was carrying in a tin bucket. He was riding a man’s saddle with his feet in the stirrup straps. He waved his hat to a com- panion in a nearby field which made the pony shy, when theeggs began to rattle in the bucket. This frighten- ed the pony and Dell was thrown, his ee ae Weare doing the cloth- ing Butler. ‘O- We carry thelargest stock. foot hanging in thestrap. The little fellow was dragged a quarter of a mile the pony repeatedly kicking and stepping on him. Perry Black and George Wyatt witnessed the acci- dent and Mr. Black, who was mount- ed, headed off the pony but it ran in acirele, when Mr. Wyatt threw a heavy monkey wrench and crippled the pony before he could catch him. The boy lived but a few minutes after he was released. Nearly every bone was broken in his poor little body and he was horribly mangled. The funeral was held on Wednesday, at- tended by the neighbors for miles around, for little Dell was a_preco- cious youth and a general favorite in the neighborhood. Interment was made in Crescent Hill cemetery. CLAUDE POLLOCK JAILED. Arrested on the Charge of Embezzle- ment. Harry Conrad, who expected to engage in the butcher business in this city and open ashop atthe south west corner of the square Saturday morning, trusted Claude Pollock with $40 Friday night to go to the depot and pay for a shipment of meat whieh he had ordered by express from the packing houses of Kausas City. Claude took the money ard went to the depot all right, but instead of performing the service for vhich he was employed, bought a ticket for Harrisonville and from that point to Mulberry, Kan.. at which place he was arrested Saturday by Deput Sheriff McCann, who followed in pe suit. Claude offered no arrest and returned to Butler with the officer and was locked in jail. He had spent the money, but admits his guilt, so the officer informed us. Claude’s father and mother are among Butler’s respected citizens and they feel keenly the disgrace the son has brought upon them by his wrong doing. resistance to his Withdrawal Card. To My Democratic Friends in Bates County: In response to a call by petition from my township, signed by the demoerats of said township I entered the race for the nomination for county treasurer in good faith, being the first candidate to announce. Af ter making a careful canvass of the county I becameconvinced that there were too many candidates from the north side of the river for either of us to succeed. On the advice of many friends with whom I consulted { made propositions to each and every candidate on the north side that we get together and take some chance, or leave it to our friends, for the benefit of the democratic party, love you now? He—Yes, but riches have wings. To-day I am wealthy, to-morrow I may be poor. Who can tell? She—It’s the same with love, dear. To-day | love, to morrow— who can tell? This is the season for engaging teachers for next year. Both teach- ersand school boards should exer- cise great care in engaging and mak- ing contracts. There is such a thing as “fitness of things.”” A teacher who will accept just any school without knowing the conditions in the district is not likely to succeed. That board which does not act on business prin-j ciples and know what it is getting is a fair dupe for a shrewd book agent or a chart vender.—W. P. Carrington, state Superintendent. The next meeting of the Southwest Firemen’s Association will be held at Monett on June 26 to 29, both dates inclusive. Our Department will send | a team to compete for the prizes of- | fered, under the leadership of Fore- man Frank Mabbot. The boys made a splendid score last year and will do even better this. The team will con- sist of sixteen picked men, who will take their cart along. The boys have} commenced practicing and will keep | it upuntil they leave for Monett,| about the 25th of next month. | H.

Polk Pierce was the only condidate — willir to take chances with me, and believing with him out of the way I could win; therefore, 1 took the chance and lost Now, believing that if L had been sue essful he and his friends would have used every fair means to have secured my nomination, I therefore ask my friends to rally to his support and secure for him that nomination for county treasurer. Thank A one of my friends that have stood by me in my canvass up to this time for their loyal support and hoping some timein the future to be able to prove to them that I appreciated their friendship, 1 respectfully withdraw from the treasurer's race.

Foster, who recently located in our city, with of- tice rooms over the Farmers Bank. Dr. Foster is a luate of Marion Sims Medical College of St. Louis, and has been in the active practice since 1891 at Lewis Station, Henry county. He took a post graduate’s course in the hospitals of St. Louis. He has purchased a nice residence in the southeast part of the city. We bespeak for him a liberal patronage. The rain Wednesday and Thursday of last week interfered very mate- rially with the attendance at the Young People’s Society of Christian Endeavor, held at the C. P. church Yet the meeting was well attended and while those on the program fail- ent substitutes took their places and the program was caryied out. The ad- dresses of Rev. S. T. Divinia, ‘The Power of a Higher Christain Life,” and that of Elder Scott, “The Heroic in Christain Endeavor,” were enter- taining and highly appreciated. The growth of the Young People’s Chris- tian Endeavor organization, has been awonder of the 19th century and its power for good has challenged the admiration of the civilized world As an arm to the church and an ed- ucator of the young inthe paths of righteousness and truth the Endeavor is not surpassed by any other organ- ization of the same nature in all the world. st Bicycle Rider Will often rec or bruises from painfulcuts, sprains cidents.
