Beyond the mississippi!

Thousands have already gone, and
thousands more are turning their eyes to-
wards new homes in the fertile West To
those going to Missouri, Kansas, Nebras-
ka. Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Nevada,
Oregon or California, we recommend a
cheap, safe, quick and direct route, uia
St Louis, over the Missouri Pacific Rail-
road, which runs its fine Day Coaches and
Pullman Sleepers from st. Louis to Prin-
cipal points, pithout change. Webelieve
that the Missouri Pacific Railroad has the
best track and the Hnest and safest equip
ment of any line west of the Mississippi,
and it's connections with roads further
West are prompt and reliable. The
Texas connection of this road is now
completed, and passengers are offered a
first class, all-rail route from st. Louis to
Texas, either over the Missouri, Kansas
and Texas R. R., uia Sedaia, or over the
Atlantic & Pacific R. R., tia Vinita For

Horrible Murder and Suicide.

CHICAGO, February % "A most hor-
rible case Of pretneditated murder and
suicide occurred at Waseca. Minnesota,
on Monday last. 1t appears that two
Germans, Alexander Busen and John
Ruff, the former married, the latter un-
married, owned and worked a farm
together; that finally Busen was driven
away, and Ruff took full possession of
the farm and of Busen's family. Re
Gently the Grand Jury found an indict-
ment against Ruff and the woman for
adultery, which greatly alarmed them.
On Tuesday morning last; the neigh
bors going to Busen's house; found it
shut up, and, breaking in, discovered
Mrs. Busen and her youngest child lying
on the. bed, bathed in blood, their
throats cut from ear to ear On the
floor, beside the bed lay the lifeless
body of Ruff, his throat also cut From
letters left by both the man and the wo.
man, it is evident that they agreed Upon
this tragic method of escape from the
clutches of the law!

Another Railroad Route.

EDITOR OF THE SPIRIT: An old sub
scriber to your paper asks the privilege
to recommend a route for railway
through our county, that would proba
bly, meet with more favor and be OF
greater utility and benefit to the county
than any one that has yet been propos-
ed. From Woodstield pass down Stand
ing Stone and down SunGsh creek to
the mou h of Piney, and up Piney cross
ing at its head east of Beallsville on to
q run that flows into Captina creek in
Wayne township, Belmont county. and
down the creek through Wayne, Wash
ingtcn and York townships to Pawhat-
tan; from thence up the river II miles
to Bellaire. The road should be con
!ihucd from Woodsfpld through Summit
and Seneca townships to Millwood Sta.
ton on the Central Ohio.
This would put us in direct communi-
cation with Bellairc and give us an cut
let both east and west. The road would
be about 60 miles long and would pen
citrate twelve townships and command
the traffic of twenty. 1t would pass
through rich and productive country
deVelope and bring into market rich and
productive coal mines.
This route would embrace a part of
the road surveyed last summer from
Piney to the creek beyond Lewisville,
and the same for which Center township
voted $4,000, these bonds would be APP
plicable to this road BY adopting the
narrow gauge this road could be built
on the plan proposed by N. in former
number. 1t would not only command
the traffic along its line but would sue
cessfullv compete with the broad gauge
for the local traffic at its connection
This would make a paving road and
would suit the people of Monroe much
better than road north. 1t is believed
that on this route if properly laid before
h people vote in favor o. the tax would
be given, and further that there is energy
and enterprise enough on the route to
push it forward to final compl ction.-
What we do we should do at once; we
urge an expression from others

GOLDEN HOURS,
BY DE-. 3 J. DRvAUL.


Days of childhood, where are ye!
Why thy joy no moro see?
Gay, delightful, happy morn,
o! why leave me thus forlorni
o! stay awhile, and let me hear
The thrilling lay, So sweet aud clear;
That used to ring, SO light and clear.
Come backl once more, and gladden. ne.
The moon SO pale, te wight doth glow,
As years agons upon the snow;
But that pale raw brings not tonight.
Those golden hoursn so free and bright.
Farewell, bright days forever asd,
My tears for thee to night shed;
Ny thoughts, tonight. are backward borne,
To that delightful, happy morn.
Ny Youthful friend, moral learn,
Your days will pass and ne 'er return;
the present seize, with eager haste,
Those "golden hours" 0! do not waste,
Prepare thyself for all that's right,
And for the victory brsvely fight;
Be like light house on the sand,
To guide thy brother safe to land.
Then all thy life youth viii be,
II years fOurscore you live 10 See;
And when deaths stream you cross, m
friend,
Those sgolden hours" will never end.
