CURR RE EE Plugging! Plugging! Plugging!" We have been plugging along for over a quarter of a century and will, as the old lady said, ‘‘still continuer. Our trade never was better and the only reasons we can give are : FIRST :—Everybody likes to trade where they can get their money’s worth. ‘ SECOND :—We carry the stock and you do not have to buy from a catalogue, or wait until we send for it. THIRD :—If we tell you an article is all right, it is. When we warrant an article, we stand strictly by the warrant. If you need a hay press, buy the LIGHTNING, have sold more of them than all other presses represent- ed this market. If you need a Dise, Gang or Sulky, buy the HANCOCK. We are the only Fir in Butler that has sold any dise gangs, and we can tell you who bought them, and they can tell you how they like them. Nothing on earth can touch the Han- cock. Look out for our big field exhib‘tion and be sure and attend it. If you need a mouldboard sulky or gang, there is only ONE. That stands at the head of the list, and John Deere makes it. If you need a wagon buy the Mitchell or Schuttler. Remember the celebrated Anciuor and Hooster line of Buggies, Bike wagons, Road and Spring wagons. We also have a complete line of TEAM Harness as well as single and double driving harness. If you are going to can any fruit we have tin and glass cans by the dozen, or can furnish you a wagon load if you want them. Also have everything in the grocery line, from a a .

Mrs. Sarah Morrow, wife of John Morrow, was instantly killed and her daughter seriously injured by a south-bound engine of the Kansas City, Pittsburg and Southern rail- way ata crossing, two miles north of Amoret, in the west part of this county Friday afternoon. The ladies were in a buggy with the |side curtains drawn, and it is sup- posed were unaware of the approach of the fast moving passenger train, when they drove onto the track of the railroad. The engine struck the buggy be- tween the front and hind wheel smashing the vehicle, killing the horse and throwing the two ladies high in the air. Mrs. Morrow was instantly killed, while her daughter received several severe wounds about the face and shoulders. The train was stoppe!, and Miss Morrow and the mangled remains of her mother were taken aboard and conveyed to Amoret, where medical aid was secured for the young lady and the body of her mother tenderly cared for. Miss Morrow was unconscious, when taken to Amoret, and remained so until Saturday morning. The reports from Amoret Tuesday were that the young lady was get- ting nicely and in a fair way to fully recovery. The family reside in the west part of the county and were returning home from a visit to relatives, when the accident happened. The deceased was about 55 years of age and the mother of 7 or 8 chil- dren She was a most esteemed lady and the unfortunate oreurrence cast a gloom over the entire neighbor- hood in which she lived.

Funeral services were held from the family residence yesterday afternoon, after which the remains were interred in the city cemetery north of town.

Ii the negro people were mistreated in Missouri or any other Southern State as they are in Iilinois, a deafening howl would go up in every Northern State. Inmany strongly Republican towns and cities in Illinois the white laboring element object to working in shops where negroes are employed, and demand not only that the negroes shall be discharged, but that they shall leave the towns and’ cities. At Eldorado, in that state, the people drove all the negroes out of the town under threat of their lives, and the sheriff, Sam Baxter, was powerless to protect them. The Governor has sent one or two companies of militia to Eldor- ado and promises to protect the ne- groesif fhey return.
