never seen weather sufficiently cold
to form an iciclc. The farmer he
hired out to gave Pete Instructions
one day to go to the wood-shcd and
tell Jake, Il Northern mig to re-
move the iciclcs from the barn. The
word icicles staggered Pete. How
ever, he kept muttering the sentence,
DE eye syclrs i'll dc barn. until,
when he reached the woodshct, the
sentence was SO incNtricably mixed
that he stood for Il few moments look

A great man under the shadow of
defeat is taught how precious aia the
uses Of adversely; and, as an oak
trees roots are strengthened by its

cause are but resting places on the
road to victory at last.

CHARGE,
Harye Cordner Arrested for Arson---Nt
Doubt of His Innocence.

Most OF our readers are personally
acquainted with Harve Cordner, on
in-law of the late Henry Williams,
deceased, and for Il number of years
q citizen of Mexico. A short time
ago Cordner moved to Slater, Mo-,
where he opened out a furniture
store, and since that time, as far as
We a learn, has been doing a good
business. Last Sunday, we heard
rumors on the staeet that there had
been a fire at Slater, and that Cordner
and his wife had been arrested for
arson. On inquiry, we found that
COrdner had been arrested and was
under $1,000 bond, Casey & Peabody
formerly of this city being his bonds
men. Monday, Cordner was in Mex
leo, and employed j. Med. Trimble,
who, as an attorney of ability, has a
reputation all over the State, to de-
fend him. While he was in the city,
the LEDGER man applied his pump"
and CLEANED the following facts, which
We think are correct:
Last Saturday morning at 3 O'Clock,
Cordner was awakened from his sleep
by the cry of fire, and the smoke
rushing into this sleeping apartment,
which was just in the real of his store,
and on the same floor. He and his
wife at once rushed into the front
room to put out the fire, but by this
time some one had broken open the
doors and the wind famed the flames
till they took possession of Cordner's
furniture store, a grocery store and
a meat market, which we're DESTROYED.
Loss, about $40, 600. Parties who
got to the fire first, claim that the fire
was near the front window, and that
one of the glass was broken out and
the fire was spreading as though coal
Oil had been used. From this it
would look as though some party from
the front did the firing. Cordner says
there is a party at Slater who hates
! him, and is mean enough to burn him
out. Cordner had only $1,000 in
s%urance OF his stock, which was val
ued at little less than So, 200. He did
not W the building. His own and
his wife's clothing and household
goods were also burned, on which he
had no insurance. His furniture
stock was all paid for. 1t appears
to us that Cordner is innocent. He
was insured for only $1,000, and his
stock, which was paid for, and cloth
ing and household goods could not
have been worth less than 81, 500.
If he had set it OF fire, he would
have probably started it near the store
where there had been fire.
Mr.. Cordner lived IN Mexico for a
good many years, and a more law
abiding citizen never lived here. He
is we'll connected, and has a host of
friends, all of whom speak strong for
his innocence. His trial is set for
next Monday, and we have but little
dOuht hut what the matter will he
cleared up satisfactorily.
