Mu.der I'm Monroe Conn.,

The Monroe Democrat gives an ac.
count of an attrociOus and unprovoked
murder, which was perpetrated in
Monroe county on the 26.h of June.
John Kener, an Influential farmer and
good citizen, residing on the head
waters of Citico Greek, was the victim,
and the bloody-handed perpetrator
was Jasper Millsaps, notorious Illicit
distiller and outlaw, who has often
figured in the Federal Courts. He is
also thought to be the man who
wounded Deputy Marshal VIM. Lind.
say in the recent raid into Monroe
county.
Mi lIsaps and man named Milton
Williams were together and were
Joined by the murdered man on the
morning of the deed. They were on
friendly terms and had had business
transactions, Millsaps buying corn
from Kener. They drank together
and were perfectly friendly that morn
ing, but Millsaps fell behind, and will
fully and deliberately shot Kener,
knocking him from his horse and
then fired three more shots, complet-
ing his bloody deed. Millsaps was
taken at his house by Williams and
some others, turned over to Constable
Isaac Lin 1say, tried before Esq.
Burris at Ball Play, bound over to
Court, aud is now in Jail at Madison

That Rase Ball Contest

A meeting Of the Fourth of July
Amusement Committee was held at
the City Hall last night for the pur-
pose of deciding the game of base ball
between the Reds and KGoxvilies on
the 4th. There was not a quorum,
however, and an adjournment was
had till tonight. The Chairman of
the Committee requests US to notify
all members thereof, together with the
umpire of the game aud the captain
of each club to meet again at the City
Hall at u promptly tonight.
COMMISSIONERS RAUM says that the
failure to provide for the pay OF
United States Marshals amounts to a
repeal OF the criminal portion of the
revenue laws. But that is what the
Democrats wanted. They want to
put the illicit distilleries in operation
By that they hope to reach the good
time talked Of by Senator Vance,
when whisky could be had for five
cents drink and sugar thrown In"

TIE GROWTH OF V-IDEN11.

The growth Of Wadcna has, since
the erection Of the first residence,
been slow, while the country around
it has been rapidly developing. This
feature is very unusual to western
towns; we know of scarcely town
on the line of the n. P, railroad west
OF IS, that is not fur in advance Of
the country surrounding it. Not so
with the village of Wadena. Bust
ness is not ovcrdonc here and our
present agricultural resources would
easily support Il town Of double its
popul 'tion. 49,.
Notwithstanding it has two good
hotels, another one is to be built on
the corner Of Front and Second St.,
cast of TIE FARMER Office, 34X50,
which will be conducted strictly
on the metropolitan order. 1t is
going to he erected by Mcssrs.
Ostrander Bros, who arc also build
ing a stable 30xGO to be run in COIL
ncction with their hotel.
The Walcna Mill Company have
their mammoth Touring mill nearly
enclosed which, when completed, will
contain six run of burrs and cost the
neat little sum Of $1,000. The COM
plction of the grist mill will be i'm
mcdia,cly followed by the erection
Of Il saw mill, Is feet long. just east
of the Touring ,4ill, and this in turn
will DC followed by the building Of u
large steam elevator. TO furnish
power for this immense business, the
cn,crprising company will put in a
GO-horsc power engine. Further par
ticnlars of this great interest will bc
given in the near future.
Mr.. S. NJ. Canterbury has under
construction a large building on Third
street, which, when completed he will
occupy rs first-class saddlcry and
harness shop. TIE FARMER is also
informed that Il gentleman has pur-
chased the lot just south of Mr.. G..
and is about to erect 4 building in
which to carry on the grocery bust
ness.
Another wagon and general jobbing,
shop is soon to DC established ny
1;rst-class worlmcn, who will manu-
tactlrc and repair furniture, etc., full
particulars Of which will DC duly
given.
Many dwelling houses may also be
seen in course of erection and
we feel safe to assert that, should the
crops receive no set back, the town
will be doubled i'll population and i'm
portancc before the close of the year

BRICH MANUFACTURE.

One of the greatest needs of Wa
dena is the establishment OF q good
brick yard, to which branch Of in
dustry size holds out as promising
inducements as any point in the
northwest.
First and foremost of her advan-
tages is the fact that the demand
is, even now, fully equal to the ca
pacity Of good yard, however OK
tcnsve, to supply. Not only would
it command large trade from our
rapidly growing town and farming
community tributary thereto, but 1T
would have the business Of the towns
along the road for a distance OF at
least 40 miles cast and west, Braincrd
being at present the nearest point at
which brick can be obtained from the
east, and Moorhead, on the Red river
90 miles away, from the west. Thus
VIC offer to some enterprising party
or parties sure market for all the
brick they can make.
Another Of her advantages is her
almost limitless resources for the
production of brick. About mile
north of town, and forming the sub
soil of great meadow, is pure blue
cay in abundance, with water close
at hand and wood in any quantity at
sl.5O per cord.
Can anytlling more be asked or dc.
sired in the way of inducements to
t.blisll a brick yard in WadcHa
There are plcl:ty Of men and capital
in the cast seeking investment and
business chances, and our citizens
have only to take the pains to pre-
sent our advantages before them to
get the desired improvement, if there
is no one here ut home to start the
enterprise.
Activity in matters Of this kind do
much toward developing and enrich
ing new community while the want
of action permits our best interests
to lag. and sends our trade to other
markets, when it could just IS we'll
Lc retained at home.

Smoking.

In comparison with some others, tobac-
co smoking seems a very small vice. But
it is ahabit which has absolutely nothing
to recommend it. Tobacco pollutes the
breath, damages the teeth, and weakens
the digestive organs. 1t disposes to in
activity and carelessness. Few habitual
smokers attain to eminence in business.
Farmers given to smoking are usually the
latest in getting in their crops. As pub
licly exhibited, the practice is odious. In
the streets it has become a downright
nuisance for passengers are compelled to
inhale the fumes, whether of cigars or
pipes, disgorged by smokers. In nine
cases out Of ten, the habit is taken up in
sheer idleness. 1t has a certain intoxi-
eating effcct-like dram drinking. We
need say little of its w~astefulness OF
means, though that must be very consid-
cradle. We have heard of instances OF
youths in fashionable life who yearly
smoke two or three hundred dollars worth
of cigars, and doubtless there are many
whose outlay must be far greater. Among
the least affiuent classes the habitualex-
penditure on tobacco cannot but en-
croach upon the available means Of liv-
ing, and often when the outlay can be i'll
spared. The confirmed tobacco smoker
will see his family suffer for bread before
he denies himself this hurtful luxury
for smoking undoubtedly deadens the
moral faculties.

Elegant hair is woman's browning
beauty. When it fades, she fades as
we'll. While it is kept bright, her per-
sonal attractions are still maintained.
By preserving the hair fresh and Wig
orous a youthful appearance is contin-
ued through many years. Those who
grieve over their fading hair turning
gray too early, should know that Ayers
Hair Vigor prevents it, and restores
gray or faded hair to its natural color.
1t is a clear and healthful preparation,
containing neither oil, dye, nor any
thing deleterious, and imparts to the
scalp what is most needed-a sense OF
pleasant and delightful freedom from
scurf or dandruff.-New Berne IN. c.,
