places for the large number Of scholars
who will be in attendance during the pres
ent term. They experience not little
difficulty, As the supply seems inadequate
tn the demand. In this respect the Quarry
City is deficient, and steps should be taken
looking toward some Improvement.
The two newspaper Offices OF the
Quarry City seem to be prospecting, and the
managers Of each are consequently happy.
The Journal Democrat has one Of the best
appointed country establishments in the
state, and Messrs. Baldwin Il Richards, Of
the Standard, are turning out from their
job room many evidences Of their skill in
this direction. 1t would be difficult to
find more companiOnsble set Of gentle
men than the press gang Of the Burg.
-Warrensburg is u temperance town
at least it is supposed to Be such-as the
county court refuses to grant license to
those Who would otherwise engage in the
traffic. Notwithstanding this, there is one
place where stale beer is sold, open and
above board, besides several drug stores
where the old topper can purchase the
meanest OF red-eye BY the drink or GAL
lon. oh. yes, Warrensburg is q fine pro-
hibition city-if you don't care what you
say.
Frank T. Smith, representing the
Kansas CITY exposition, visited Warrens-
burg Friday evening and billed the town
in amanner that gives conclusive proof
! that he thoroughly understands his bust
nes>. He had, on arriving in the city,
something less than a ton Of paper under
his arms, and all the ho0dlums in the
; Burg surrounded him as soon ~ he
aIighted from the train, surprising him to
! be advance agent for circus or variety
entertainment.
| In conversation with prominent
farmers residing ncarthe Quarry City the
BAzco man learned tina, the outlook for
the corn crop was indeed discOuraging.
The long spell Of dry weather has burned
il up to q great extent, and in many
eases i, is being cut up for fodder. The
general impression is that corn will COM
| mand from seventy-6ve cents To one dollar
per bushel this fall, and those who have
anv on hand are not anxious To dispose
Of it at any price.
J -Milier's drug store, opposite Eads'
hotel, has been beautified by coat Of
paint. In addition, life-size Ute Indian
stands out in bold relief on the front wall,
which is an artistic piece Of painting. In
! fact, il is SO liie-like that when John
| Crut.hfield first saw it he imagined him
sell again in the Ute reservation, and i'm
mediately started for the railroad at 2:lO
gait. Ii took Bob Dalton's most seduc-
/ tive and persuasive words to assure
''Crutch" that there was not any danger.
Postmaster Brown Was thoroughly in
cen>ed Il couple Of days ago. lie was in
formed that the directors had decided to
place one negro pupil in each OF the pub
lie school rooms attended BY white chill
dren, and this wxs the Cause Of his dis
pleasure. Brown is good republican, but
ihis VS. more than he could swallow. A.
ter little explanation, however, volun-
,eered by Lum Morrow ant others, he con-
cluded it was good move, and also saw
ing to the county, and he now favors the
project. The BAzoO man would suggest
that every other pupil be female.
On Thursday evening Miss Jennie
/ Wright, an accomplished young lady Of
the Burg. and . graduate Of the normal
school last year, Was united in marriage to
Mr.. Cook, a wealthy cattle dealer of
Texas. The ceremony wa performed at
the residence Of the bride, BY Rev. G. v.
Ridley, formerly pastor Of the Cumcer-
land Presbyterian church, and a number
OF friends were present to oder cOngratu-
lstions They lett at once for Texas, and
carried with them the best wishes Of the
many acquaintance Of the young bride.
The citizen. OF Warrensburg are "all
broken up" 80 to speak, over their miner
al springs. They are situated about one
/ hall mile north OF the Esds house, on q
farm owned BY George Colburn, Of the
johnson County Savings bank. During
the past week It is estimated that from
two hundred to three hundred people have
visited them daily, and the excitement In
regard to them is constantly increasing.
Mr.. Colburu, one Of the wcalthiest citi-
zens Of the Burg, contemplates improving
them at once, and it is qnite probable that
commodiOns hotel will be erected in
close proximity at no distant day.
John VI. Crutch6ell, known TO the
readers ri the BAZOO A. "Crutchie Field,
returned To- Warrensburg Thursday even
ing. after q seven weeks absence in Colo
pleasure trip, and in conversation with the
BAz"o's representative said he had fun
without end. He brought back with him
many samples Of ore, unique stones with
out number. and flowers picked from the
uppermo>t crags Of Pixies Peak. While
! absent b. encountered number Of Ute
Indians On the warPath, which little incl
dent seems to have had depressing in
fiuence upon his spirits. He will hereaf-
ter remain in the Quarry City, and 1t is
intimated that at no distant day will take
unto himself blushing bride.
