LIVE 'SEcEsn' ~ OErMwA.--A fellow
took it into his head the other day to enact
al,ttle treason il our streets on the supposi-
non either that the novelty or "auiacity of
the thing" would protect him or possibly
tancying that he could 60 it alone against
all creation. AT all events, the individual
in question openly proclaimed his secession
sentiments, hurrahed for jeff, Davis, drew a
pistol on Squire Mar'z, and expressed the
humane desire to kill Black Republican.
AT this stage OF. the proceedings, the City
Marshal, John T. Lewis, took the gentleman
in charge and pointed out to him the road
to the Southern Confederacy in such terms
? as induced the interesting specimen of hu.
manity to make a rapid movement in that
direction. Two or three soldiers, however.

the present as favorable an opportunity as
they might soon have for ssece,h' hunt.

VULCANITE BASE FOR
ARTIFICIAL TEETH

Attention is especially called to this article as
substitute for gold in inserting teeth. Many per-
who have tr lrd all kinds of metallic bases pre-
fer this and in those where it is applicable,
it will in n great measure become substitute for
gold, silver or platina. Its chief advantages are,
cheapness, lightness and perfect adoption to the
mouth it having soft feshy feel to the parts of
the mouth with which it comes in contact
A. M. Hills is prepared to put up teeth on the
Eulcante Base, with Goodyear's Patent Gum,
which is the only reliable preparation, and can
only be had through their regular agents
DR.. Hills will always be found in his Office on
Friday and Saturday, unless notice appears to the
contrary, in the town papers. the previous week.

BATTLE OF SILVER GREEK The fight at
Silver Creek, Missouri, seems to have been a
spirited and hotly y-contested little affair. The
enemy occupied bend in the creek OF horse
shoe shape, and in their rear were steep and
high hills. Their force was from 1900 to 1900,
whilst ours was 500. When within about 400
yards we all dismountcd except some Iowa
men who had only pistols and sabres), and
FASTENED to the sopen part of the horse shoe
shaped camp, from whence the enemy were
pouring their fire into our advance. Our
Colts six shooting revolving carbines soon
made the woods ring and in 20 minutes the
rebel lines wavered, broke, and then threw a.
way their arms and fed in all directions. The
enemy loss was so killed, 100 wounded, and
nine prisoners. Our loss killed, 4 mortally,
and Is slightly wounded. After the battle our
men burned the rebel camp of "a wagons and
horses, some clothing, blankets, etc., and
captured It's good horses. The men and
officers in this fight deserve great credit for
their cool bravery and if our battles on a
large scale pushed through as was this
little fight, we will have but few ssBull Rum
disasters to record.

IRoNroN, Mo.-About 5000 rebels under
Jeff Thompson attacked 800 Union troops
under Col. Mills, about % miles from Ironton
some two weeks since. A desperate conflict
ensued, and the loss is said to have been
heavy on both sides. The Union troops fell
back after short fight, not deeming it prudent
to try to hold their position against such a
superior force. They intended to fall back
on Pilot Knob, where Col. Carliu was max ing
preparations for 3 vigorous defencs-rein-
forcements having been sent forward to that
point.
