Martin Douglas, & weli known citizen of Rich Hi’!, as woll as of Bates County, dled at his home in this city about 11 o’clock this morn- ing, ofan overdose of laudanum. Mr. Douglas had been suffering from nervousness and took the drug, it is alleged,“ to quiet his nerves, taking an overdose. Physicians were sum- moned as soon as his condition be- came alarming, but without avail. Mr. Douglas leaves a wife and two children, viz: Dell Douglas and Mre. Ethel Johannes. His brother, Reme Douglas, of Butler came down at noon as soon ashe could arrive af- ter the sad news reached him.—Re- view, 28th. Funeral services were held from the family residence in Rich Hill on Sun- day morning, and the remains were brought to Butler on the noon train and conveyed direct to the cemetery, where services were conducted by the woodmen. J. M. Douglas was born at Windsor, Mo., in 1855. He spent the greater Fair. . D. C. Wolfe took dinner over in Kansas Sunday, and he says !t was @ good one. Nathan Morrell, aged 56, an old Hume citizen and a brother of our Somers Morrell, died at his home in Blue Mound, Kas. Sunday. He was buried with Odd Fellow and M. W. A. ceremonies, Tuesday. J. Wesley Badgett was found in an unconscious condition in the field, Saturday evening. It was several hours before he wis revived. He was loading some building stone, when he fainted away. Attorney Watt Dawson was a home comer and mingled with old friends. Lawyer DeWitt Chastain was also on the grounds. Little Katie Green was stricken quite suddenly with spinal menengi- tis, last week, which rendered her blind and deat for a time and life was despaired of. At present, how- ever, she has regained her senses, and is on 4 fair way to recovery. hibit did not near come up to that of last year in quantity and some claim not in quality. There were few sheep and few hogs, when last year every pen was occupled. The mule exhibit was very good, the cat- tle was nothing like so good as the previous year. This was accounted for by a farmer who sald: “The best premium offered for the beststallion, best jack and best bull are $8 and $10, while $300 and $400 are hung up for the trotting and pacing races. $5 offered for best hog and $100 for running race. It did not encourage the farmer to prepare and bring his stock. The fruit crop failure this year, of course, detracted from that exhibit. The racing was not so good as it should have been, considering the handsome purees hung up. That was accounted for in part by some strings ;belng withdrawn from the county circuit and taken to Kansas City. The weather throughout the four days was ideal, and all who came had a good time and got their mon- ey’s worth. Home Wedding. Roy Kious, of Bartlesville, Ind. Ter., and Miss Kittie Broaddus were married at the bride’s home on High street Sunday afternoon, Rev. F. M. Burton, of Joplin, performed the cere- mony. Only the near relatives and afew intimate friends were present In order to avold the “send off” pre- pared by their young friends, at the depot, the newly married couple drove through to Adrian and took the evening train for Kansas City. They will make their home in Bartles- ville, where Mr. Kious holds a posi- tion. They are well known and pop- ular young people of ourcity. The crime.
