Mr.. Pomeroy Beeding, fast son of
Mr.. f. l.. Beeding, living in Cambridge,
Mo-, says a Bonneville correspondent Of
the Sedalia Democrat, was trapped in
an attempt to murder his father, mother
and brother-in-law. Mr.. Beeding is one
Of the wealthiest and most popular men
in the State, and being desirous Of his
son getting a good education, sent him
to Fayette, Mo. This being a small
place, he thought his son would not get
the opportunity Of practicing his rascali-
ty. After Pomeroy had been there for a
few weeks, his father went to visit him,
and found he had gotten deeply in debt,
and was engaged to be married to a
young lady, who broke her engagement
for this purpose. Mr.. Beeding thinking
this the wrong life for a schoolboy 10
lead, took him home. The boy wished
to marry, but he had no money, was not
of age, and had no means of getting any.
How was he to get it7
He finally made up his mind to kill
bis father, mother and brother-in-law,
who constituted the family. To do this
he tried to get Mr.. Stanton, a man Of not
the highest standing in the world, who
lived just across the river from him, to
assist him. lie told Mr.. Stanton he
would give him 81 800 il he would do it,

An Iowa correspondent Of the Chicago
Tribune speaks thus concerning the fe-
male school superintendents OF that
State; The system of lady superintend-
ents of county schools is in somewhat
general use here. Marshall county is,
IN this respect, most favored In the lady
who Presides so gracefully over its educa-
nal interests. In Miss Clifford, the
4 usty finds q superintendent uniting
critical scholarship, elegant culture, and
more than all, true and earnest lady
who fulflls her duties in a manner
to lead one to sigh for such a superin-
tendent in every Office in the country.
The example Of Miss Clifford does more TO
establish feminine rights than score
Of eloquent lecturers. Quietly sssum-
ing her rights" she uses them to such
advantage that Marshall county may
well be proud Of the present success and
improving condition Of her public
schools.

The London Standard severely criti-
ci-es letter from Mr. Gladstone read at
the centennial celebration of the battle
of Lexington. ltremarks that the habit
of toadyins to Americans is sdiscreditable
in English public men and journalists.
The results Of the Republican expert
ment in the United States are corrup-
tion Of public life, extinction of public
spirit, oppression of the minority, dis
gust Of honorable men with politics, and
the transfer Of the government into the
hands of corrupt, unscrupulous and ig-
norant persons. The Times fully indorses
Mr. Gladstone sletters, and says it would
be melancholy if the first great attempt
to complete independence should result
in social anarchy, although there is moth
ing at present to justify such fears.
Great evils exist in some American insti-
tutions, which must be remedied il pro-
gress is to continue.

Stop That Cough.

Many people hesitate to try medicine for a
disease. on account of the expense, connected
with the uncertainty of its henefting them;
while at the same time, had they confidence
in that remedy, the expense would be the least
objection. With this fact in view, we make
the following proposition: Any person suffer-

call at w. B. Baxter's or any other drug store
and purchase bottle of HALE'S COUGH

conclude that it is doing them no good, they
can return the bottle and receive back their
money. No medicine ever sold IN this vicini>
