Mrs. Albert Bowen, niece and two nephews are down from Kansas City to spend two or three weeks on a vis- it to her mother, Mre. Pipes, near Altona Mies Ethel Pipes, who bas been visiting relatives in Kansas City, has returned home. Gus Tevis, 65 years of age, a well- known farmer, five miles west of Odessa, Mo, committed suicide by taking carbolic acid. The cause is supposed to be domestic trouble. His niece had sued him for his farm, alleging that he owed for service as housekeeper. Chas. Lammers, a young man 21 years of age, placed the muzzle of a target rifle to his side and sent a bul- let through his heart at bis home in Deep Water, Heary county. The cause of rash act could not be as- counted for by the family. We publish the official statement of the financial condition of the Farm" ers Bank of Walnut, at Foster, Mo.» in another column. This {s one of the strongest and cleanest banks of its size in the state and has always been a money maker for {ts stock- holders, Announcement is made that one thousand additional men will be giv- en employment in the different de- partments of the Missouri Pactfic shops at Sedalia, as soon as they can be secured. Tho M., K. & T. will also double its force of shop men. B. Winkle, a brakeman on the In- ter-State, living on Weat F's. Scott street, fell from the top of a freight car, which he was switching, Satur- day morning. He was taken to his home, and Dr. Boulware, the compa- ny physician, summoned. The doc- tor found him badly bruised and shaken up, but no bones broken. The suit af C. A. Chambers against the estate of Edwin Chambers, {n the Probate court I'riday, resulted in a verdict of $666.57 for plaintiff. The sult was on account for services rendered Edwin Chambers, insane, before being taken to the asylum. The case was bitterly contested by the other heirs and ‘will probably be appealed to the circuit court. Mrs. Z. J. Williams with her chil- dren left Tuesday to join Mr. Wil- Mame, who recently located in busi- ness at San Angelo, Texas, and where they expect to make their future home. This excellent family have been citizens of Butler for many years, where they stood high in busi- ness and social circles, and their de- parture is deeply regretted by their many friends. The best wishes of our people attend them for their prosperity and happiness. Miss Susie Blizzard is spending her | vacation at ElDorado Springs. A oumber of business men met at) the court room Thursday evening | for the purpose of organizing a com- | mercial club. After talks trom W. Duvall, E. A Bennett, Dr. H.

Much to the surprise of everyone, no water was encount-| ging huge harrows. Men were riding ered in the first hole, The text book problem fs again be- front of the harrows. He said land ing agitated, and, of course, the pub- lishing houses want a change. Su- perintendent Ives takes time by the forelock and informs us that he does not intend to make a aingle change in the text books used in the public schools of Bates county. Prof. Ives made but few changes last year, the least he could possibly make and put the schools on a high plane. He realizes the enormous expense and annoyance to the patrons of con- tinuous changes in school text books, He thinks the continued agitation jing. The name of the camp wassug- | nearly every evening. The trial into the Pec of Clark | Sproul before Probate court, the docketed for last Thursday, came to | & sudden termination, when " two brothers, J. M. Sproul, of Hope, Kan., and John Sproul, of Rich Hill, appeared before Judge Silvers and asked permission to take charge of | him.

He moved to north- west Kansas a few years ago, while land was cheap, and bought vast tracts which is now very valuable and he {s reputed to be quite wealthy. The Republican county ticket for Henry county, according to the Clin- ton Democrat and speeches placing in nomination the successful candi- dates, is made up of life-long Repub- licans who never faltered in thelr support of republican nominees or scratched their party ticket, Canthe Republicans of Bates county say as much? 0000 |.

We dread inventory—and every one of the clerks do. If we didn’t have these semi-annual inventory sales—stock taking would unearth all kinds of remnants, oddg and ends, and broken sizes. Such conditions would more than double the derve-rendering task of, inventory. And inventory at its best is dreaded drudgery. Tallying up short lengths—tallying up odd numbers,—if we did that, the detail work would be heart breaking. ° How much easier to count up the caeh. But as we said before, this sale gives relief, and we cheer‘uliy have cut prices to smithereens—and turning all our ‘‘ragged edges’’ into cash. In this event we have climbed the top round of the ladder of economy. We never offered greater saving opportunities, you never had better reason or chance to save. We want you to come and realize the conditions for yourself, The last part of the sale promises for better bargains than the first.s Come. MoKIBBENS. A taken same as a reeh at highest market price.
