THE DEMOCRACY.

The democrats of Pettis county met in
township conventions yesterday. and the
result will be found in another column.
There was considerable hard work done,
and vast amount of mixing. Known and
avowed greenbackers run and were elected
for delegates, and few colored men voted.
The whole passed off good humoredly, but
not altogether satisfactorily. Some are
hurt and sore, and will be still worse hurt
and sOrer when the county convention
meets tomorrow.
The instructions of Flat Creek for o. p.
Hatton provokes smile on the most staid
and unflinching adherent of the democracy.
The friends of Mr.. Heard seem over
Dyed al the prospect of nominating him
j or the Office of attorney. Perhaps he will
be nominated, but the time is past when a
by the democrats of Pettis is
equivalent to an election. 1t is possible
that Mr.. Heard may come out second-best
in the race in the autumn. Stronger men
have been beaten-more confident friends
have been disappointed. The convention
tomorrow should give the party a ticket
that could be elected. Will they do il?

Badly TranspOsed.

One of the worst cases of the transposi-
ton of words which has ever come to the
knowledge of a BAzoo reporter, occurred
in this city, yesterday.
One of our society ladies entered an Ohio
street drug store and, addressing the clerk,
said 81 would like a sponge bath" ayes,
m am, a-that is, certainly, will you
please repeat, / did not Just understand
you" stammered the drug dispenser. 81
would like a sponge bath" was the reit-
Grated order; and the lady flashed a look
at the clerk which made his ears flap with
alright.
Half frightened out of his wits, he man
aged to tell his fair visitor that he still
failed to catch her meaning; i'm fact, he
did not think he had ever heard of the ar.
ticle. Was it liquid or solid?
"Well, L never! think try to make
my words Ineligible. I-want-you-to
give-me-a-sponge-bath. Do you I'M
derstand ?''
The clerk did not, but just then the pro-
prietor, who is married man, came to
the young mans relief, and whispered,
"She wants a bath sponge"
Then the lady, all at once, comprehended
the mistake she had made, and, blushing a
deep red. rushed from the store before she
was recognized by either the proprietor or
clerk. But gentleman met her at the door,
raised his hat, passed in and gave her
name.
However, The reporter will not.

A CANARD.
It is All Bosh About Frank James
and His Pals Going to
Surrender.

In the BAzoo OF Thursday an Associated
Press dispatch from New York city was pub
lished, stating that one of Governor Crit
tenden's party authorized the statement
that Frank James was TO come IN and sur
render. This is the sheerest nonsense a;
this time. No doubt the outlaw would like
to do so i'm the LIGHT of events since April
5, but there are TOO many charges at his
door. Frank James was at the first Glen
dale robbery, was at Winston when Con-
ductor Westfall was murdered, and was at
the Blue Cut. After the aforementioned
robbery, which was less than eight months
ago, he visited Kansas City and remained
there with Jesse until it was safe to 60 out,
when he departed. 1t is not true that he
cut loose from the gang two years ago, that
story being an invention Of Mrs. Samuels
or Mrs Jesse James, and is being circulated
for that purpose. 1t is as well known who
took part In the Blue Cut robbery as il is
that Bob Ford killed Jesse james, and il is
also known that Charlie Ford is the man
who so brutality knocked Fox, the United
States express messenger, down with a re-
volver, the night OF the second Chicago x
Alton outrage.
Ford knows whether Frank James was
at the Blue Cut and Rock Island robberies !;
so does Dick Little and Clarence Hite. II
Frank James has made any overtures
tending to a surrender, the governor keeps
the fact to himself and does not tell il to
every one he meets.

A Suggestion Brought About by
the Recent Escape of Pris-
Oners.

The Hannibal Journal, in speaking of
the escape of six Marion county prisoners
from the calabOose here, feels called upon
To deliver the following wholesome advice,
editOriallv:
The manner in which prisoners are
placed in charge Of deputies and their as
sistants. after trial and conviction, is q
public abuse which demands a remedy and
Deputy Sheriff Dudley's sad fiasco at
Moberly and Sedalia, in allowing six most
desperate and dangerous prisoners to es-
cape, is text for extending comment on
the folly OF allowing a parcel of mex
perienced boys 20 take charge oi men
wise in all the methods that foil the
shrewdest officials in the country.
Great expense is incurred by individuals
and corporations in capturing criminals
and the state pays heavy bills for trying
and cOnvicting them, and it would seem
that after sentence the utmost precautioE
should be taken To place the prisoners
within the penitentiary at Jefferson City.
The reverse seems 10 be the prevailing
custom AS soon as sentence is passed the
barriers are broken down. An inexperi-
enced deputy invites number of his less
experienced young friends, and they start
off on picnic excursion to Jefferson CITY,
as alleged guards" of a number Of sharp
and slick criminals, who take advantage
of adolescence and verdancy to make their
escape. At Moberly the deputy "goes out
to see a man" and the train leaves him be-
hind. At Sedalia the prisoners are
placed in hOld-Over to give the
deputy chance TO catch up.
When the deputy arrives his young friends
are everjOyed to meet their long lost
brother-their JOY is so great that they all
go out to see another man. and while they
are absent the prisoners batter down the
wooden walls of their box and 60 forth to
breathe the pure air of the green fields,
while the deputy weeps and his faithful
followers fire their pistols at pig in a
clover patch. This would be sublimsly
ridiculous and decidedly farcicAl were it
not made serious matter by the fact that
society is again placed at the mercy OF
these desperadOes and heavy expense in
Cured by the taxpaying public to place
them where they can do no harm.
A little vigorous legislation on this par
licular step in caring for criminals is a de-
sidera.um. These little picnic excursions
10 Jefferson should be suppressed.

SOME SCANDAL!
A Young Man of Bates County
Brought to Grief, While Enjoy
ing the Honeymoon of
Welded Bliss.
Spe ial Correspondence of the Bazoo.

Spe ial Correspondence of the BazoO.
APPLETON CITY, May "a
This usually moral, quiet little city,
while her sister cities have been enjoying
the sensations of Scandals in high life, y
has escaped being brought into notOriety,
but there is now a case on the docket,
which will be tried before Esquire Hold
kins, next Friday, that promises much in
the way OF scandal developments.
Over in the Stree state of Bates" there
resides young man by the name OF
George Griggs. He is probably twenty
one or two years of age, passably good
looking, and In fair circumstances Tor a
young man just starting in life.
For some time past he has been paying
his attentions to Miss Rosa Lusk, daugh-
ter OF +. Il. Lusk, who is in the employ of
Luchsinger Il Streif, hardware and agri-
cultural implement dealers in this city.
Their courtship soon ripened into an en-
sagement, and preparations were begun
for the ceremony, which was to have taken
place last Sunday, at the residence of the
girls parents i'm this city. But it seems
Rosa had loved not wisely but too well, "
and George suddenly came tn the cOnclu-
sion that she was not the woman to share
his joys and sorrows through life's rugged
Journey, and when the Sunday came that
was to bring so much Joy and gladness to
Rosa's loving and trusting heart, her dear
George did not put in an appearance, but
instead hied himself to Rockville and
married another young lady, who, as he
thought, was more capable Of possessing
the whole of his great store Of love and
trust.
AS soon as the fact of his marriage be-
came known To Rosa, she divulged the
fact OF their criminal intimacy to her pa
rents, whereupon her father swore out a
warrant against George, charging him with
seduction under promise of marriage.
Griggs was arrested and brought before
Esquire Hodkins, in this city, for a pre-
liminary hearing. His bond was fixed at
81 900 and the the trial set for Friday, the
18th inst. APPLETON.

Important Purchase.

Yesterday Mr.. Boutwell, purchased from
Messrs. Mertz and Lamm, several acres oil
fine land in the city, lying about seven
squares west of Ohio street, and between
Second and Main streets. This is one of
the finest tracts in the city limits, and has
long been desired by judicious investors.
Ii will at once be laid out into lots, and offer
ed to purchasers wishing to build homes.
As the property is beautifully situated and
very desirable in every way, and as there
will be but few of the lots, they will not be
long on the market.
Many fine residences are now being
erected i'm that vicinity,

having been summoned by a telegram an
nouncing the death of his nephew, John A.
Craig, also detective, who was sent to

The Fleeing FugitiveS.

Mr.. Samuel +. Walker, one of the men
who captured Miller, the escaped Marion
county criminal, informed BAzoo re-
porter, last night, that he, in company
with others, followed Waldrip, another
of the prisoners, and the one who was with
Miller, some twelve miles over into John
son county, or at point seven miles north
west of Windsor. Friday night at
o'clock the prisoner, who was accompanied
by another man, stopped at the. barn of a
farmer, and on their presence being de-
tected, they at once took to their heels and
made their escape. This is the last heard
Of them, and it is thought the chances for
their capture are slim.

Introductory.

We take pleasure in introducing to this
public Mr.. W. w. Bozman Il Bros, who
come to this city highly recommended as
gentlemen of honor and integrity.
Messrs. Bozman a. Bros. will engage here
i'm their old business of wholesale and re-
tail tobacco trade, business they were en-
gagged in for eleven years at Athens, Ohio,
where they manufactured over two million
cigars annually, running large force Of
hands and buying large supplies OF tobacco.
Messrs. Bozman have come to the west in
order to more easily reach their wholesale
trade. They have one of the finest sales
rooms in this city, glance of which will
convince the most skeptical that they are
masters of the business. We are requested
to say to the public that lifetim'es ex-
perience in the handling of the finest
tobacco grown i'm the world will enable
these gentlemen 10 supply their customers
with the finest stock known to the trade.
Mr.. Il. W. Bozman will visit the retail
dealers i'm the near future, when it is hoped
trial will be given them, as We feel conf
dent an acquaintance will be OF mutual
benefit TO all parties concerned.

Joe jagged.

Again does Joseph Hewitt come to the
front, though this is the last whaek report
ers will have at him for some time, as he
now occupies room i'm the hotel run by
Sheriff Conner, OH Lamine street.
Friday night Joe beat, bruised and un-
lawfully maltreated one colored boy by the
name of George Thompson, who works for
Mr.. Hiram Croft, on East Twelfth street.
The assault was most cowardly and
brutal one, and Mr.. Croft very properly
had Joe arrested.
Yesterday he was arraigned before
Squire Weber, and, on a presentation of
the facts in the case, Joe was sentenced to
sixty days i'm the county Jail. with the
privilege of cracking rocks, whenever the
weather will not endanger his valuable life.

James T. Johnston's circus gave an
afternoon performance at Appleton City,
Friday, but owing to the heavy rain which
began falling at half-past 6 o'clock that
evening, they pulled down their tents and
did not attempt to show at night. The
attendance was small, and their expenses
far exceeded the receipts. There were two
attachments run on their property-one
for billing and the other for provisions
They succeeded in raising money enough
to pay them off and pulled for Clinton
Yesterday. They have been having hard

Married.

One of the quietest weddings which has
occurred in this city for many moons was
that which, last night, united in wedlock
DIR. r. L. Miller, OF the drug firm of Bard
& Miller, and Miss Margaret I. Hender-
son, daughter of Rev. j. T. A. Henderson
The ceremony was performed by the father
of the bride, in the presence OF few in
vited guests, after which superb repast
was partaken of. The contracting parties
are well and favorably known, and their
many friends will unite with the BAzoo i'm
extending heartiest congratulations.
