What a German Newspaper
Says.

We Germans are i'm general not III
clined to- believe at once i'm great an
Inducements and puffs we are rather
suspicious, and often with perfect rig ut,
of Congregations and humbugS. Our
motto is, what the eye sees the heart
believes" and we therefore desire To see
and examine ourselves before we speak
about things and praise them. This
was our idea when We heard and read
Nd much about DIR. =. a. RichmOnd's
Justly celebrated Worlds Epileptic In
stitute, and we therefore sent reporter
to the building We are now able to
give the best information on the sub
jject, based on a personal review and
examination of the premises.
Our reporter found Mr.. Richmond in
his office. The doctor kindly received
him, and not only answered all his
questions, hut showed and explained
everything about the place TO him.
His office is on the first floor of the
building, and its walls are covered
with thousands Of photographs of gen.
tlemen and ladies restored to health by
the use of Samaritan Nervine, among
whom our reporter recognized many of
his own cOuntrymen. and its glass
cases contain innumerable certificate of
cures and letters i'm praise of this world
famous remedy.
About ten wears ago DIR. Richmond
came tn st. Joseph. He was then Il
poor young man, with but little money.
and no friends tn assist him. Herented
a small office on Francis street, AMI
commenced the struggle for success
single-handed and alone. He achieved
grand triumph, in the face Of stub
born opposition on every hand, and is
! to-day one of the wealthiest men in our
midst. This fact alone is amply sutfi
cient to- show the merits of his invalua-
I bile preparation, even though there We're
no other sources from which tn procure
valid and reliable testimony.
But besides the money which this
great medicine has been the means of
bringing to the inventor, the doctor re-
ceives daily the blessings of thousands
of patients restored To health and hap
piness through his instrumentality.
! These letters are open for inspection at
! his office, and it requires two clerks To
attend to- this branch of the business.
/ DIR. Richmond is u living example to
be initiated by all young men who have
a disposition to reach eminence in the
world by diligence i'm the use of their
own exertiOns, and besides the enjoy
ment of the prosperity which surrounds
him he has the satisfaction To- he re-
garded a human benefactOr.

Nevada's New Opera House

Yesterday BAzoo reporter visited Ne
vado. and i'm company with Joe Schneider,
former Sedalian, took look at the new
opera house. which is to be opened there
between the Isl and 9Th OF Nav, by some
first class company not vet determined up
ON.
The structure was erected bv Mr.. Harry
Moore, the leading dry goods merchant of
the town, at cost of nearly 10000. Ii is
a two-story brick. with elegant s;orerooms
beneath, and the opera house proper is the
handsomest of any in the interior towns in
the west Mr.. Moore has spared neither
pains nor expense in the manner Of con-
struction, and has given 10 the people OF
Nevada ylay house OF which any young
city might feel proud.
Ii has seating capacity OF 900, and in
case of necessity 1000 people can gain add
mission, including the gallery, of course.
The floors are raised both above and below,
and from any portion of the house good
view of the stage can be obtained.
The walls are papered i'm style never
Moore expended 500. The two chande-
liers are perfect beauties. and
cost the magnificent sum OF
$3.50 each. But bv far the handsomest
part is the stage scenery, painted by Mr.
Thomas Harrison. Who was the artist with
drop curtain at Smiths opera house, and
Mr. Thomas. Of Kansas CITY These gen.
tleman are thorough masters. and in secur-
ing them, Mr.. Moore was indeed fortunate
Everything pertaining to the house is OF
the finest quality, and when all is COM
pleted it can safely be called the dandy
opera house OF this section.
MIR. Moore is making arrangements to
run excursions from both Butler aud Fort

are the house will be crowded to its ut

When to Knock the Stuff1n9.

They enjoy city council in Sedalia,
which for the disregard OF the amenities
OF Life, is without a parallel, save at the
occasional stormy intervals Of our own
council IL is not graceful or digni6ed
position to take for one city father to rise
and intimate that he will "knock the stuff
ing out OF" another member of the same
hOnored board. We occasionally knock
the stuffing out OF our councilmeu, but we
DO it quietly, unostentatiously and at the
proper time and place, generally on or
about the first Tuesday in April.-Ksnsas

WAS IT SUICIDE
Death of a Prostitute at the
lockwood House, Neva-
da, Yesterday.
She Swallowed Twenty Grains OF
Morphine, but Claims Not
With Suicidal Intent

The particulars of death which seems
very much like suicide, and which occur
red at the lockwood house, Nevada, yes
day afternoon at / o'clock, were related TO
BAzoo reporter this forenoon by gentle
man cognizant with all the circumstances
connected with the sad affair.
The deceased arrived 1T Nevada on the
Il o'clock train Tuesday night from Fort
Scott, Kas., and registered al the Rock
wood house as
Mss BESSIE JONES.
She told the clerk, Col Harry Hamlin,
that she would like to be shown To- her
room at once, and her request was COM
piled with. She bad been within but 4
few minutes, when she summoned the por-
ter and sent him after twenty grains of NOR
phine. The drug was purchased for her,
AZ no one connected with the house had the
least suspicion that she contemplated
TAKING HER OWN LIFE.
The drug i'm her possession, she closed
the door, and an instant later swallowed
the entire twenty grains. About two
hours afterward, the porter happened TO
pass the door, when his attention was at
tracied by faint cry The proprietor
and clerk were notified, but on trying to
gain admission the door was found to be-
locked. Finally it was forced
open, and the victim was found
almost dead, when a physician was at
once called. She was
STILL ABLE To TALK,
and said she did not take the drug with the
intention of suicide, bnt, instead, to relieve
the pain caused by sick headache, from
which she had been suffering. She had no
idea how much of a dose she was taking,
and never realized that ii might result Ia
tally.
Through the exertions of the physician,
she lived until o'clock Yesterday afternoon,
when her spirit took its flight To
THE UNKNOWN BEYOND.
At the coroner's inquest, last evening, it
was learned that she was prostitute from
Fort Scott by the name of Phoebe Jones.
She was arrested there last summer for
child murder and acquitted. The general
impression is that il was suicide, though
she insisted TO the last that il was not.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
A special dispatch from Nevada To this
mornings Kansas City Times saws on the
above subject a young woman giving
her name as Bessie Jones died al the Rock
wood house in this city, at 9:3s this morn
ing, from the effects OF thirty-iiye grain OF
morphine taken last night. She claimed
to be from Topeka, Kansas, and said her
mother lives in Clay Center, Kansas. She
has been identified II a waiter girl who
worked at Ducks hotel, Schell City,
! last summer. Misery. homeleSsness and
disgrace is the supposed cause of the sui
eide. She bought the morphine after ar
irving in Nevada at $40 Yesterday even

Hard on the Mule.

A young man who was blowing with a
pair OF mules near Gonzales, Tex, not
long ago, observed that the off mule was
suffering from swollen jaw. On the
principle that mules have no rights which
their owners are bound to respect, he paid
no further attention to the matter until
evening. when he noticed tn at the nearer
mule was drawing away as far as possible
from Its mate. A closer inspection re-
vealed the head OF rattlesnake sticking
out from the straw collar of the afflicted
beast, in which snug quarters it had prob
ably passed the winter.

were treated TO a magnificent spectacular
display OF a northern light, which fssci

bright, broad color lit up the sky and
earth, making night as clear as day

miration upon this brilliant scintilla-
ton frsm the wild waztes of those ice

a CORRESPONDENT calls attention
In this issue Of the HERALD to the
fact that Colonel HOLSTERS name
appeared in the list Of registered
voters as. published in our morning
contemporary. Now it is a well
known fact that Colonel HOLSTER
left the Territory the middle of last
month, and has not since been
within its limits, while the regis
trati0n was all necessarily per-
formed between the 18th and 18th
instant, inclusive. There can be
no objection to Colonel HOLSTER
voting, though Of course everybody
understands he viii vote the lib
eraI' ticket; at the same time there
is objection to the fraudulent regis
tration OF him or any other, whether
he be a ''liberaF or member of the
Peoples party. The Commission
provided a certain oath to be taken
and subscribed before q registrar or
sub-registrar, who was to verify by
his own signature that the oath
had been regularly taken and sub
scribed. Now it is clear that Col.
HOLSTER did not Jake that oath be-
fore any registration officer, and if his
name appears ON the list it is there
fraudulently. If the registrars have
been SO accommodating as to regis
ter absentees on the presumption
that the absentees would subscribe
to the oath were they here, they |
have exercised q power they could !!
not possess, and been guilty of |
gross and improper assumption of
1t is probable that other
names have been irregularIy placed !
on the list, but whether they have
or not, the presence there of Colonel
HOLSTERS demands explanations
from Judge Hoge, the county regis
trar, and from Mr.. Harmed Pratt. !
the sub-registrar for the Second Pre-
einct.
