The attempts of Texas stock raisers

loss. OF imported cattle 3 years old

calves the loss, with proper care, is not
greater than 10 to 20 per cent. The
change of food and climate brings on Il

to that experienced by human beings.

Never Did III

Never did what? Why we never did en-
| terrain the thought, until the late fire in our
little city last Saturday night, that we are
living in,the midst of thieves and robbers !
But as mournful as the thought is, it is too
true! 1t is perfect scandal on those living,
as they are in q land of Sabbaths, of bibles,
and of schools, all Of which are designed to
promote civilization, and good morals. We
cannot expect anything better Of dumb
brutes, tAat they will break into fields and
destroy the crops; but to think that man,
protesting to be a rational, intelligent being,
viii proWl around in the still hours of night,
when peaceable citizens are enjoying sweet
repose, and purloin and destroy their hon.
estly earned property, is thought too horri-
bic to entertain. And, what is more horri
BILE, to think that we have those around us,
when SOME unfortunate citizen is losing his
property by fire, such offer their assistance to
save it, pretending great sympathy, but at
same time taking the advantage of securing
portion of it to themselves! 1t is enough for
those who lose by fire without having those
around them carrying off a portion of what
has been rescued from the flames!
What can we think of such? We know
this, that if they took the Bible for their
guide, it would be the last thing, they would
think of, to take away anything by stealth,
and especially from those who are losing
their all by fire!
We are almost disposed to think that such
persons are not human, do not possess rea-
son, a soul or consciencel Where should
they be classedr We think they should be
classed with that tribe that had its origin in
this way: there is a tradition floating some
where, that when the Creator made man, He
formed several out Of clay and leaned them
up against the fence to dry; and when He
came along to put souls into them, part of
them ran away. This must be the tribe to
which s,lch as we have been speaking Of be-
long. With whatever race they may belong,
if known, they would be held accountable
before earthly tribunals; bnt If never known
here, they will sooner or later be brought be-
fore tribunal where justice will be admin
istered and rewards and punishments meted
out accordingly. SOMEONE.

Your late Itemizers must have received a
scare.
Town is quiet, we think. Behold how
pleasant it is for brethren to dwell apart in
| unity!
Pilot Knob Union Sunday School has been
changed to afternoon, and now meets at
2:30 p. NJ.
Mrs. W. G. Thomas went last week to Gu
ba, Mo-, where we believe she will remain
till after Christmas.
The sudden death Of Mr.. Won Reden, so
well and favorably known in our midst, was
a great surprise. His loss is much regretted
by all.
We We're informed that the late Fair and
Festival given at Hotel Steffens, for the ben
eft Of the new Catholic church, was quite a
success.
We presume that there are many items of
interest in society matters, but your sub
scriber has had poor opportunities of late to
learn of them.
Signs of Improvement are noticeable in Pr
lot Knob, even to the unobservant. The
most substantial are the repairs and painting
Oh tue COMPANY ClOTc anu houses, the DullO-
ing Of ad addition to Superintendent Simp-
sons house, and the completion of two addi-
tional apartments to the dwelling of Mr..
kaths and double coat Of painting through
out.
The "Ponnd Party" given by the Union
Sunday School, We are told, was a success.
We cannot say whether or not it was accord
ing to Pound Party" etiquette, but we sup
pose it was. Quite large number attended
and took their pounds" Music was fur
nished by Miss Della Bebee, Mrs. Munday
and Mr.. Dilts. The necessary speechifying
was done by Messrs. VIII. CRANE, F. c. Mil
Ter, W. G. Dilts and Rev. j. Marlatt. Miss
Schneider and Mrs. Miller acted as reception
committee. Miss Cora CRANE gave two rec
itations. Mr.. Dan. Price clerked and Eddie
Amelung presided over confectionery. The
music was good; the recitations were well
rendered and appreciated; the girls were
pretty; the candies were sweet; the pounds
sold quickly; the children enjoyed them
selves; $3.50 was received and-and-and

Sudden Death.

Hon. Chas. Won Roden, of Pilot Knob,
died suddenly at his residence last Sunday
morning. He had been complaining since
Wednesday of u "bad cold, "and a pain in his
left side, but no one suspected that there
was any ailment of serious nature. 1t is
thought his death resulted from heart dis
ease, and its suddenness has shocked the
whole community, wherein Mr.. Won Roden's
standing was very high. The bereaved wife
and family have our sincere sympathies.
The funeral took place Tuesday afternoon
at one O'Clock, and was conducted by Pilot
Knob Lodge, No. 156, I. o. o. F., assisted by
Iron Lodge, No. 10.-the deceased having
for years been a member of the Order. A
large concourse of citizens followed the re-
mains to their final resting place.
