FRANK BARNUM.-No doubt many
of our more stable citizens remember
Mr.. Barnum, former freight agent at
the GAINESVILLE Depot. He was an
excellent business man and gave uni
versal satisfaction. After this, he es-
trayed, as only few American boys
do, and by some means got over into
South America and had charge of an
immense line of stages and carried the
mail for some of those transient gov
ments for several years. After enjoy
ing the wonders of nature and the
reign Of robbers in those regions as
long as such thing was possible, he
returned to the United States. He
settled down in North Carolina and
edited a spicy newspaper there for sew
eral years. There was scarcely to be
found paper so full of wit, life and
conservatism in the whole State. 1t
was a most decided success, but it is
supposed that those sober Carolinians
settled down again under the shadow
of the Resolutions of So '99 where no
one could modest them or make them
afraid d
He is now located at Kansas City, as
mime host of Barnum's Hotel. If any
one goes from this country to that
Mecca of all Americans-the far West |
they should go to Barnum's Hotel. |
He knows how to treat them, can tell |
a good yarn and has seen the world
and knows what is in it. They will
never regreti it. 2
