Carthage, Mo., Dec.—Fluctuating gas pressure was responsible for the death here of Ralph Holmes, 10 years old, who was asphyxiated as he slept by fames from a small gas stove. When the lad retired the stove was burning low. Later the pressure was increased and the flames became higher, throwing off a quantity of poisonous gas. » Thelad was found dead by Mrs. John Walker, his grandmother, early this morning. She was attracted to the room by the sound of his body falling to the floor, supposedly in the course of his death agonies. Lost Seven Head of Cattle. Richard Pulliam, the carrier on route three, informs us that L. Q. Robards, of East Boone township, lost seven cattle last week as a result of pasturing in the stalk fields. This is unfortunate. Care should be used in changing cattle from grass to dry feed.—Ad- rian Journal. parts orleaky joints. Filled and read e ‘ging ti stan i in the nearest ink-well and pressing the Crescent-Filler.

At the spelling contest Saturday at Foster the following schools were represented: Klondike, Jennie Steve- son teacher, Bryan and Lawrence Briscoe and Margaret Collier; Green- view, Miss Merel Hensley teacher, Claude Kinion and Marvel Fail; Fost- er, W.

Thomas P. Campbell and family left the first of the week for Chatopa, Kansas, where Mr. Campbell will embark in the Mercantile business at that place. We wish them health and prosperity in'their new home. S. N. Kinion is a new subscriber to The Times. He came from North Missouri a few years ago and bought the W. M. Campbell farm north of town. Mr. Kinion is one of Walnut township's enterprising farmers. He believes in good roads, and the pub- lic road running north by his farm is a good witness that he practices what he preaches. He tses the road drag freely and has the best piece of road in Walnut township. _Miss Willia Darr, of the Virginia neighborhood, was in Foster Friday. She has been teaching the Greenview school this winter but on account of poor health and the death of her fath- er which occurred a few. days ago at his home near Virginia she had to give up her school for a while. Miss Hensley is teaching in her place. We} = are informed she will commence teaching again the first of the New Year.
