funny lectures to be delivered about
Feb. Stll. Next to Mark Twain, Eli is
ranked us the funniest man in the

and mother took after the rat while
the little girl enjoyed the fun. The rat
finally disappeared and could not be

edge around, shrug her shoulders and
laugh ut the perplexed parents. Fin

the rodent had slipped up on the inside
Of the child's dress and was hiding III

lSo8---l883.

In issuing its prospectus for 1928,
the Missouri Republican points to the
complete fulilment of all It's past prom
ises. During the last year-with the
opening of new lines of communication,
spreading in every direction-it has great
" increased its telegraph service; aug
mented its corps of editors, reporters and
correspondents; improved its mechanical
features; bettered its system of condens-
ing and arranging the news, and main
tanned, in regard to the character of its
contents, the reputation it has long held
throughout the whole Southwestern
country as the
BEST NEWSPAPER NTH
The Republican has distanced all at
tempts at rivalry or competition, and is
the only Democratic English newspaper
published in st. Louis. Its support of
the principles of the Democratic party is
universally recognized as strong in logic,
whilst moderate and conservative in tone.
In its exposures of the corruption, profit
gacy and evil tendencies of the Republic
can party, it is fearless and aggressive.
But it is in the material interest of the
South and West-agriculture, commerce
and the mechanic arts-that this paper
finds its widest and most productive
field. Next to collecting and commenting
11nop tho moot inforoct;pr pouS of tho
day, its energies are devoted to the pro-
gress and prosperity Of the
GREAT MISSISSIPPI ALLEY
and the tributary regions. From it's col
mere sensationalism is carefully ex-
Guided, with the view of making it a well
come visitor to the purest home circles.
To the farmer, merchant, trader, manu-
f%acturer, banker or business man of any
class, it is Indispensable. Its financial
and commercial reports are full and reli-
able. Every movement of trade, COM
merce, transportation, &C., is faithfully
recorded. With all this, it finds room
for a large quantity of miscellaneous
reading matter to give variety and entain-
ment.

LOpslded Justice.

1t may be true that public setiment is
not thefbest criterion by which 10 temper
Justice, but from some late decision 8, ns
viewed from almost any standpoint, IL
would seem that the scales Of Justice had
got sadly got out of balance. We refer
more particularly to the decision reached
In the case OF Sergeant Mason, for his
futile attempt to nssassinate the assassin
Guiteau. One year OF hard labor in the
penitentiary months to gratify the
dignity OF regular army discipline, and
six months for his failure TO kill the assas-
nn-would have been regarded ms ample
punishment, taken with his several months
confinement in jail already.
His severe sentence by court.martial
was first approved by Gen. Hancock and
then by the Secretary of War, and on
Thursday of last week lie arrived at the
Albany Peniientinry under the escort Of q
Sergeant and Private of the 2d Artillery
and was placed In cell, and the following
record placed on the books OF the prison
"My name Ia John A. Mason; am 81
years of age aud was born in Virgins;
hair black, eyes blue, sound, nble-bodied,
FIVE feet ten inches in hight, color white,
by occupation soldier, habits of life in-
temperate, has a wife aud child, reads and
writes, has no religion, health good, and
has been vaccinated."
He was set at work in the shoe shop on
Friday, and the Albany Argus says no one
will be allowed to speak or correspond
with HIM until the lapse Of one month.
While petitions are flowing in from
every part of the country, asking the
President To pardon Mason, the Washing.
ton National Republican announces that it
has been discovered that the whole trial
has been vitiated by an error of the court,
which consisted in swearing in the court
and the judge advocate in the absence OF
the prisoner, and that there is no help for
it now but to setsthe proceedings aside and
restore Mason to duty M Sergeant of Bat
terry b, Second Artillery. II tins should
prove true there will be millions of people
who will laugh in their sleeves over the
error and consequent discontinue OF this
military tribunal.

Methodist Reunion.

The General Conference OF The Metho
dist Church South will meet in May and
il is probable that plans looking TO n re-
union with The Northern Church will be
discussed. Whether they will be carried
Is different thing. Slavery, which oc
casioned the division OF 1874, no longer
exists, but each branch OF the church has
its peculiarties, aud it remains to be seen
whether they can be adjusted by spirit
of compromise on each side. The South.
ern Bishops have more power than the
Northern Church would be willing to con-
cede. There are also d Esrences as TO lay
representation, district conferences, and
the limit of the pastorate. Moreover, in
returning the Southerners would find
themselves in n minority. Thus far, rs
the New York Methodist confessses, the
South has made the propositions for or
ganic reunion, while the north has made
many simply fraternal advances. - Gin.

Lucky is jubiant over repor. that the
two roads will unite at their town. Be
this aSilt may, one thing is certain, this
place will have the benefit OF both roads
ii they come together at all.
Much progress has been made here dur
ing the last year, and is still going on,
Notwithstanding the wretched condition
OF the roads.
The wooden bowl factory of Mr.. Chap
man has been running night and day most
of the winter, aud is yet behind with OF.
ders. Mr.. Chapman is n very industrious,
enterprising man, and his establishment,
here is great acquisition TO the place and
neighborhood, and is highly appreciated.
The McCutchen saw mill has changed
hands, having been purchased by George
and Henry Waggoner, who have been put
tingit in repair SO as to have it ready
should there ever come time when logs
can be got there.
The hoop factory of the Gonell Bros,
which has been erected and equipped at
great expense, has not been running all
the time, Tor lack OF material, but we I'M
derstand they intend to have stock shipped
to them by rail and intend TO drive things
along quite lively.
Quite gang OF men are working in the
stone quarry preparing material Tor the
| crusher that is TO come. 1t is said they
| intend to use up the surface rock for
grading purposes, and that below will be
converted into lime.
Our polite and accomplished agent and
operator is moving along the eve II tenor o
his way, giving, we believe, universal sat
isfaction.
Although the outlook for this place i.
very good, and when the roads get passi

perfected.
Lots are going up and parties intend
ing 10 start here had better hurry up.
The wheat crop has suffered more dur
ing the last Two weeks than all the winte
before, thongh fine weather may, il it come
soon, save il so that there may he an aver
