Their voyage over the prairies, ac- cording to the bride’s statement was devoid of love and the brutal indig- nities she’suffered on the part of ber husband was unbearable. In her complaints she alleges among other things that Webb told her after they were out two or three days, that he had three or four wives already and didn’t want her, and that ifshe would give him all the money she had he would take her back where he got her. She agreed to his proposition and gave him her savings, $3 or $4. They returned to Bates county, and he put her out in the middle of the road in front of the home of R. T. Judy, where she had previously lived as a domestic, and drove off. Relating her experience to Mr. and Mrs, Judy, she acted on their advice, and swore out a warrant against Webb. Sheriff Smith then began a search for Webb and located and arrested him at La Platte, Macon county, Mo., and brought him back and lodged him in jail the latter part of last week. When searched at the jail Webb had $455 in his pockets. made against him’ by his wife in almost every particular, and has employed attorney W. O. Jackson to defend him. Of course, there are two sides to every question and the vase will be fully ventilated in the courts. Death of Mrs. W. T. Johnson. The funeral of Mrs. Mary E. John son, wife of W. T. Johnson, county treasurer, took place from the Cum- berland Presbyterian church, of which denomination the deceased had been a devoted member since she was 14 years of age, Friday evening of fast week, and was largely attended by sympathizing friends of this city and of Rich Hill, where she had re- sided for twelve years until a year and a half ago,when the family mov- edto Butler, on account of Mr. John- son taking charge of the office of county treasurer. The funeral services were conduct- ed by the pastor, Rev. J. W. McGee, assisted by Revs. Chancellor, of Rich Hill, and Puckett, of this city. The accident which caused the death of this estimable lady was one of the most deplorable that ever happened in our city, and Mr. Jolin- son and the family of children left motherless have the undivided and heartfelt sympathy of ev ritizen of Butler in their terrible affliction. As stated in .Tue Times of last week, Mrs. Johnson, while outtaking adrive Wednesday morning in her buggy, the family horse which was prized by her and considered reliable and gentle, became unmanageable, and she was thrown to the ground. The injuries she received in the fall proved fatal Thursday morning, when she departed this life. Mrs. Johnson_was-born inJohnsou county, Mo., May 31, 1858, and was married to Mr. Johnson Feb. 15, 1877. To this union five children were born, all of whom are now liv- ing; one married daughter, one son in the army in the Philippine Islands and Sallie and Ira at home. To the Teachers of Bates County.

Mrs. Kramer made a statement for |} } ‘the defense and said he expected to show that Jessie Morrison went to a friend’s house to get a pattern June 20,1900, and was returning by the Castle home when Mrs. Castle called her in and accused her of mak: trouble; that Miss Morrison denied, and that they quarreled.
