The Snake Charmers.

Writers have told wonderful tales of the
Hindoo snake charmers, but until w. w.
Cole brought to civilization these wizard
marvels, the people of the Western World
hadno conception of their surprising powers
and gifts. They and their feats transport
us to strange scenes and fill US with a
mysterious awe. They are to be seen in

POLITICAL,

Politics seem to have become rather stale
with our people, and but little excitement
is adrift among them. In our Congressional
race it is generally conceded that
Maj. Pettibone will be reelected,
and that the star of the Mountain Boy"
has gone down to rise no more. We are
pleased to learn from different sources of
the onward and successful moves made by
Captain Rule in his canvass against Old
man afraid-of- his record Houk From all
we can learn-and we feel SO closely inter
ested that we inquire upon every occasion
we feel confident that Captain Rule is daily
gaining ground, and that election day will
score him victory that will be sufficient to
cause the ''m;nateur boss" to tuck his little
Observation-Disclosures tail between
his legs and s'send him home to work for
his pizen. H.

A WORD TO OUR READERS

WHEN YOU READ OF MEDICINE THAT
w will cure all diseases, beware of it, for
every scientific physician on earth kuows how
fallacious such statements are. But when you
read of a medicine, compounded by regular
physician and surgeon Of high standing, that
claims to cure only certain disease, and fur
nishes high proof that it does this, you can
safely try it, and with The assurance that it will
cure you. DR.. v r. Stone, late Physician and
Surgeon of the U. s. A., has placed before the

GREEN RIDGE, Mo-, June %.

Saturday night George Thonpsop's
horse was stolen; Sunday the thief was
arrested in Ladue on suspicion. By cum
ningly applying the pump he admitted
that he stole the horse. and where from. \

a boy about eighteen years old. He gives
his name as Charles Laird, from Milford.

fellow.
He was taken before James Vaughn, JUS

examination, and was bound over to court.
Alter he was taken to the depot, and while
there he asked the privilege to write let

letter he also began to shed tears The Of

feelings, stepped out of the room Tor few

shoes. slipped out of the door. and struck
for freedom. In few minutes there were
twenty or thirty men in hot pursuit. An
exciting race of two miles or more was in
obliged in through mud, cornfelds, wire
fences and over ravines.
The prisoner was finally captured by
Eddy Ream and Barney Weeden, two
young men, who, it must he said. are ex-
ira travellers on foot for long race. Dur
ing the exciting race our constable fired
several shots at the prisoner. But the
shots only stimulated the young man to
faster flight. The officer was greatly ex-
cited, and ran the race through with no
hat on. He was very much relieved when
the prisoner was secured

ANOTHER VICTIM
To the Seductive Siren Who
Sings the Song Of the
Option Dealer.
Where's That Hundred and Fifty
Dollars I?

On last Saturday there was commenced
a suit before Squire H. {. Levans, in this
this city, for the recovery of $50, which
has proven quite interesting TO several
more persons than the parties litigant.
Ii is one Of the many OF those cor pses
which have been borne ont to the grave
yard of buried ventures, and over which
the one word, Option" is inscribed as a
headline, or epiiaph
Last November w. ID. Ilgenfritz bought
a $50 draft from the Pettis County bank,
for the purpose of sending il To the COM
mission and brokerage firm of ID. X. Francis
Il Co, of ~. Louis, the money TO be used
i'm that gentlemanly method Of gambling
known as option dealing. Mr. Ilgenfritz
to forward the draft TO its destination.
This Mr.. CLANCY said he would 10.
But the draft was sent 10 a wrong firm,
and was, consequently, returned after
some delay. In the meantime, Mr.. Ilgen-
fritz, wondering why he did not get let
ter from ID. X Francis Il Co., enclosing a
draft for several thousand dollars as the re-
suit of his speculation. got uneasy and
wrote the firm, asking if that was the way
they did business in st. Louis. and that it
would be well for them TO remit an expla-
nation, if they had nothing else.
That sort of a remittance was sent in the
form of a statement that no money
or draft had been received by them from
a gentleman by the name of llgenfriiz, OF
Sedalia.
Then the gentleman hied of to the Pettis
county bank and found out the mistake
that had been made in making out the
draft and sending il to the wrong party.
Then a demand was made for the
money, but refused. Mr.. Ilgenfritz
thought this very strange and asked the
why of it?
No satisfactory answer was given, and
after several demands and refusals, suit
was instituted, as above stated.
Now, il seems that there was another
gentleman i'm this city who had been, and
is yet, dallying with the blind maiden. had
his name mentioned in connection with
Mr.. Hgenfritz' when the draft was bought,
and the cashier took it for granted that the
two were partners; at least that
is what he saws, and as the gentle
man, whose name is Allen, owed the
bank SlOO, Mr.. Clancy kept that sum out
of Mr.. Ilgenfritz' money and used the re-
naming fifty i'm a manner satisfactory to
himself.
The defense gave no plausible reason a,
the trial, why this money bad been held,
or what disposal had been made of it.
At the conclusion of the testimony,
Squire Levens took the case under advise
ment, wanting the quietude Of Sunday in
which TO subject il I'd a proper legal
process of investigation.
Yesterday he rendered his decision, Civ
