On Friday afternoon the BAzoo said that

stating that it would be gracious act to
send some there About dusk Mrs Lamm
was delighted 10 see man drive up with
some wood, the gift OF Mrs. Spray, of East
Sedalia. Hardly had the wood bcen un-
loaded before some ladies from the same
part of the city came in and handed the
matron six dollars and some nice butter.
These gifts Mrs. Lamm thinks were in
answer to prayer, but when . BAZoo re-
porter yesterday, asked her if she did not
think il was on account of the notice in

A HOGGISH TRICK
Neek-Eyed Bovine, Last
Week.

As rule, the hog is accounted . very
dull sort of an animal, though ii you
want to drive one of the family out of 4
cornfield or garden patch, through hole
wide enough for q regiment TO march, you
will find the hog very astute and keenly
perverse creature. In nine cases out of
ten you will have to retire from the effsrt
to lay in a fresh supply Of piety
The BAZOO "caught on" 10 . very neat
trick which hog has been playing on
Sheriff Conner, which shows mp Mr.. Pig
in very creditable light, SO far as cute
ness goes, but which also reveals
him as a totally depraved cuss, without
the least moral character, a veritab!e
thief, indeed. Mr.. Conner has q COW
which is the pride of the sheriff's heart and
the pet of the family, owing to the prodi.
gality of the flow of her milk. UptO with
in few days ago bossy has performed her
duty most faithfully. and the cream cup of
the sheriff's table has been kept full. Bnt
all of q. sudden without any visible ressoui
for the decline, the tactical fluid grew less
and less until it almost tailed to respond
to the persuasive pulls at the spouts
through which il issues from the tank.
cows tank. This was not only q misfor-
tune but mystery and course of in
Quiry was started.
Yesterday the cause of the disaster was
discovered. The COW was meekly standing
in the back yard of the Jail, and under her,
in the most satisfied manner, was a hog
sucking away in calm delight, little caring
whether nybody else ever got any milk or
not.
1t was a very loving couple, this COW
and hog, thong their amours cost Sheriff
Conner his supply of milk, since the swine
got it all. Mr.. Conner has sworn out a
warrant de swinibns pro lactealibus and
will have the next grand jury investigate
the charge. In the meantime the hog will
complacently grunt i'm sweet content.

He FORCES q Receipt for q Small
Amount on q Boarding
House.

Five or six months ago there came to
Sedalia from Texas q railroad man named
A. II. McKeeby. He went To work brak.
ing on the X. & T., first running on the
division from here to Parsons, and after
wards from Sedalia to Hannibal. He
proved to be . good railroad man and had
no trouble in getting all the work he
wanted.
He has lately beeu boarding with Mrs
Willie, on Z st Seventh street, up to last
Wednesday, since which time he has been
taking his meals elsewhere, for reasons
which will probably be apparent.
Last "Wednesday was pay day and Mrs
get her pay otherwise, had sent In request
to the officials to see that McKeeby paid
her little bill before he got his money. A
day or two before this time McKeeby had
quit work and ON Wednesday demanded
his "time" for his work in November, in
addition to his October pay. which was
due on the 18th. 1t is customary to pay q
man all that is owing to him when he
quits or is discharged. But when he de-
manded his pay he was told he mnst bring
a receipt from Mrs. Willie before he would
be paid.
At this he became very boisterous and
abusive, being also somewhat under the
influence of liquor, but the officials were
firm, and finally sent ior policeman and
had him Sired out" He left, saying he
would go and get recoip, from Mrs. Will
lie and settle the matter up.
So, that afternoon, McKeeby came into
the trainmaster's Office again, this time
sober, produced a receipt, signed with Mrs
Willie's name, and asked if he could &c,
his slime" now. The paper was
examined and pronounced salts
factory, but lie was told he would have to
await communication from Hannibal
where the company had guaranteed his
board. He then left, intending to return
the next day and get the much desired
document.
Shortly after he left Mr.. Willie appear.
ed at the office, and asked If Mckeeby had
got his paw. She was told he had not, and
then was shown the receipt which Mckee
by had deposited and asked il it was all
right.
Mrs. Willie was astonished when she
had examined the paper and solemnly
vowed she never gave him a scratch OF a
pen" She then announced her intention
of garnisheeing McKeeby's pay. She said
she told McK-eby that afternoon what his
bill was-about fire dollars-when he said
il was not over two dollars ana he did not
intend To pay il anyway.
Mrs. Willie guarnisheed McKeeby's paw
and pu; il i'm the hands of an officer to col
lect. She saws she is not going to prose-
cute McKeeby for forgery, as all she wants
is her money
McKeeby staid around town day or
two, and mas not been seen since. and it is
supposed he mas skipped. for fear of prose-
cution for his crime He is young man,
about twenty-four years old, medium sized,
heavy built and unmarried.
