Wanted Him DISCHARGED.

The w. e. Coup party had a peck OF
trouble on hand while i'm Sedalia. and a
little of it was brought about through re-
marks made by certain Missouri Pacific
conductor, who had, two days before the
show arrived, ON the Garrison house plat,
form, exhibited couple of complimentary
tickets and offered to give them away, say
ing he had witnessed the performance in
St. Louis and it was no good.
Two of Coup: agents heard the remark
and were highly indignant They at once
determined to report the conductor in
question, and for that purpose started on,
in search of Superintendent Cumming
Not being acquainted with that gentleman,
they were easily deceived, and when a
friend of the conductor, who knew their
mission, steered them up against certain
railway man, the agents surmised that all
was we'll, so preferred charge against the
ticket-puncher. The pseudo superinten-
dent took it all in, and then dismissed the
complainants with the remark "All
right; I'll attend to his case"
OF course they were satisfied, and left
the city, thinking it would only be a couple
of days until the conductors head came
of. IT'S needless TO say, however, that he
is still running, and the chances are he
will remain, for aught the circus men can
do to the contrary.

Uniforms on the Pacific.

Ii seems that all is not lovely among the
Missouri Pacific employees At Parsons, II
the following special dispatch to the Globe
Democrat from that point can be relied
upon: A big kick is being made by the
employees on passenger trains Of the Mis-
souri, Pacific railroad, owing to their being
compelled by an order issued by General
Manager Talmage To- wear uniforms to be
furnished by an eastern firm at an exor-
bitant price, S2S being deducted from their
wages for a suit that can be bought from
any respectable dealer for Sl2.
There would not have been so much of a
kick had the goods been of even fair quail
ity: but they are not; the suits are made
up of poor imitation OF Melton, and are
secondhand. The most of them are suits
which have been made up Tor the Pennsyl-
vania X Reading railroad. and rejected by
them.

Thought He was Robbed.

About 2 o'clock yesterdsymorning Officers
Barnett, Meyer and Gossage noticed two
men asleep on benches at the GARRISON
house. Barnett, who, by the way, has a
brand new pair of kickers, approached one
of the men to see who he was. The loud
squeaking of so vast an amount of new
leather on the floor suddenly awakened
the man out of a sonnd sleep, and rising
mp, he clapped his hands on his vest peck
ct and yelled at the top of his voice, 81 am
robbed, ! am robbed" He made a rush
for the door, and then started back after
his coat. Barnett, thinking the man was
crazy and was going after a revolver,
pulled his gun, the stranger, in the mean
time, rushing around like one demented.
Gossage finally seized the fellow and COM
PEELED him to listen to an explanation,
after which the poor fellow, trembling in
every limb, said he thought the officers
were some of the James gang, and were
going to rob, and perhaps murder, him.
He was waiting for the south-bound train.

MY BED.
BY ROSA PEARLE.

Who welcomes me with kind embrace,
While looking fondly in my face,
And mutely keeps for me place
NV bed.
Who holds me when I'm tired and faint,
And of the burthen makes no plant,
Tho yielding self without restraint
My bed.
Who stands beside at close of day,
And bends above me when pray,
Tho doubtless hearing naught ] say
My bed.
Who soothes me when i sadly weep,
Der woes it was my lot to reap,
And comforts me until sleep
My bed.
Who never cares about my wealth,
Nor Ravens me with tongue of stealth,
But loves me best when not in health
My bed.
Who differs from nv other friends,
And never gossip's coinage spends
Bnt silence keeps, if not defends
My bed.
Who, when the sun is down the slope,
nd life and no longer cope,
Will hear my last good-by-I hope
My bed.

THE VALIDITY OF THE LAW
in the supreme court?

III TIC suPfcmc CouIt.
D-No, sir; seven cases have already
gone to the supreme court and have been
e,ided adversely to the whisky men. We
t;ve tie probitionists on the supreme
Ia, nch and the prohibition element
need expect nothing at their hands but
rigid enforcement Of the law as it now
exists.
R-When will tbs law 60 into effect?
ID TN the 18th day OF this
month, at which time proclamation
will he made bv the governor
1t requires thirty days from the passage.
oi the act before such proclamation can
Be made
R.-What is the feeling among those en-
gagged in the whisky, wine and beer traffic?
Dwell. since the passage of the law,
some saloon keepers have declared il their
intention not To renew their licenses. as
they think it will be a waste OF money.
They evidently believe the law will be en-
forced.
R.-Are those engaged in the liquor
traffic organizing IN any way to
OPPOSE THE ENFORCEMENT OF THE LAW
Din the large cities they are forming
what thew denominate Liberty Leagues.
In the large river towns we expect 10 nave
some trouble in enforcing the law, because
there is large element in those places
who desire to tolerate the evil of intemper-
ance as they do all other abominations-
The responsibilities and duties of appre-
henting the violators Of the law is at pres
ent left largely with the people. but 1T will +,
| think, be found necessary, ere long, to
establish special cOnstabulary 10 enforce
the provisions of the prohibi,ory Law.
R-What is said, and what, If anyth ing,
will be done about
PROPERTY RENDERED vALUELESs
by the enforcement of the prohibitory law :?
ID Well, there was some talk about this
phase of the question when the amendment
vas first passed, but / think the owners OF
breweries and distilleries have finally con-
Guided that they must accept the inevitable.
The people in their sovereign capacity
have right to condemn that which is I'M
slightly, or a nuisance, and a stencil in the
nostriis of a large majority OF the people.
Yes, sir; tell you that
PROHIBITION WILL PROHIBIT
Iowa the people have always been in favor
Of prohibition; they have had their faces
used for spittoons long enough, and now
having secured the law, they intend to see
that ii is enforced.
A summons to supper here interrupted
the reverend gentleman, and thanking him
for the information received, the BAzoc
man withdrew.

FROM "HALlFAX."
An Incident that Happened in the
County From Which John
Cosgrove Hailed.

John Cosgrove, of BOonville, candidate
for congress IRON this district, Is a native
Of Jefferson county, New York, which is in
a section known a. Black River country
ITO show the people OF the Central Missouri
district who he is, the BAZOO will relate an
incident
In Jefferson county there is portion Of
its uplands which are very sterile and poor,
which is know among the residents vi all
that country as Halifax" The SHOWS in the
autumn fall in Halifax" first, and are the
last TO melt away in the spring-in fact,
the climate is exceedingly Indictment. the
soil almost worthless and the people. fnan-
cially, as poor as the soil. Any one coming
from Halifax" to any part Vf the world,
where the country is known,
is gazed at as sort of
human phenOmenon-at least ii they
possess anything more than tow breecheS
or sheep-grey homespun goods.
A number OF years ago good mother
from Halifax" whose only daughter had
caught on" and was about to marry, Wis
tied Watertown, the capital Of the county,
To tit her wardrobe up with something
better than could be spun and wOve on the
farm, when DEANS and fax were the prin-
cipai crop.
The old lady in her best Sunday gown
walked up to the countec Of one OF the
magnificent dry goods palaces on Wash
ington street, in WATERFOWL, and asked the
whipper-snapper clerk, who parted his
