Both Rhyme ard Reason.

Below is published, free gratis, for moth
ing, the advertisement of Regnier 4 Shoup,
OF ST. Joseph, which occupied one quarter
of page in the Gazet OF yesterday. 1t is
one of the most soul-stirring ads recently
seen by this itemiz~r, though that firm is
probably not the sole stirring and sterling
establishment In sIauncb 81. 10. Ii is sale
10 predict that daily there are numbers OF
soles stirring along TO Regnier & Shoup's,
where great bargains can undoubtedly be
had. This quarter page ad. OF the firm is a
little uneven, little rugged in Its versi6-
cation, but the hard horse-sense of the en-
tire advertisement is worthy of the highest
admiration:
We want to drive our business
And have some love for mercantile fame,
We never spare the ink and PAPER,
But let the people see our name.
Energy is the life of business,
Enterprise will always pay;
We never rest but always labor,
And advertise from day TO ray.

TWO YEARS.
Reuben Sperry, Too Much Mar
ried, Goes to States Prison
for That Term.

Missouri is decidedly down on bigamy,
trigamy and polygamy. If Reuben n.
Sperry ever had doubt on this point, il
has been eradicsted from his mind, torn up
by the roots, never again 10 show even the
sickliest kind of existence. Sperry loved
not wisely, but two we'll. In 1881 he
was married in st. Louis. This wife now
lives in ST. Charles county. Later SPerry
went to Henry county, and engaged al
his trade as wagon maker and
carpenter. There he passed himself
of as a single man. and won the affections
of Miss Maggie Nesbitt, girl engaged as
domestic in the family of Mr.. q. K.
LiDgle, editor of the Clinton Democrat.
Sperry ard Miss Nesbitt were married
recently. The young woman's mother is a
resident of Sedalis. 1t was but a short
time after his marriage that
the arrest of Sperry was made
on the charge OF bigamy. He had no de-
Tense to make, and promptly pleaded
guilty, and was as promptly sentenced 10
two years in the states prison.
Yesterday Mr.. A. B. Hopkins, sheriff OF
Henry county, arrived with his prisoner
en- route to Jefferson City. Sperry is be-
tween thirty and thirty five years old. He
will have ample leisure to reflect upon his
sel6shness in marrying two women when
there are not really enough in the country
to 90 round.

A WOMAN'S WHIMS.
Strange Freaks of Mother Who
Left Her Child il Custody
OF Strangers.

About five months ago a woman giving
her name as Mrs. Morris, with her little
girl aged about years, accompanied by a
hard featured man, arrived in the city. She
remained here about two weeks, and then
left in company with the stranger, leaving
her little girl to be taken care of by stran-
gers. Justice Halstead interested himself
in the matter, and found a temporary
home for the little wait. Subsequently,
she was taken charge of by the county of
ficials and adopted by Mr.. Chas. Vessel.
Yesterday Mrs. Morris arrived in
the city and created quite a sensation
BY her demands for her little girl. She
called on the county officials and demanded
the custody of her child, which was reluct-
autly granted, as the little one now has a
good home and it is questionable what will
become of her under this woman's guar
dianship. She claims to be the wife of
Charles Morris. but ne is not In the city,
and consequently her statement cannot be
verified, or if she is an unworthy character,
as she has given every one by her strange
conduct reason to believe, no charge can be
preferred against her. Certain it is, that
the innocent child would have been better
off with it's adopted parents than with the
woman claiming to be it's mother.

Visit to the Poor Farm.

Yesterday, despite the rain, visit was
made to the county poor farm by Judge
Gentry and Judge Taylor, of the county
court, accompanied By Dr. Overstreet
county physician, and Mr.. Henry Y Field,
county clerk. Judge Perdue, OF the county
conrt, was sick and OF course was unable
to 90.
The visitors found a careful and con-
siderate administration Of sffairs a,
the farm Clesnly apartments, a
sufficiency of fool and clothing, and pains
taking efforts to provide as far as possible
for the unfcrtunates harbored there, were
observed. The visitors made careful ex-
animation as to the methods pursued by
the superintendent in conducting the farm,
and found nothing calling for censure or
adverse criticism.
This perplexed scribe-psusing in his
work, and wondering what on earth he is
going to find 10 write about nextjumps
to the sudden conclusion that il would be q
good and charitable deed, if during the
holiday season the wrecks and waits at the
poor farm be not forgotten, but that some
glad holiday cheer be sent them Christmas,
and New Years that they, too, may share,
to some degree, in the general geniality Of
those festival days.

STEELE SENT SOUTH.
Chas. 81. Steele Taken to Fort Scott
This Morning for Misappro-
priating Money.

Yesterday morning a telegram was re-
ceived here from the city marshal of Fort
Scott to hold Steele until his arrival.
Steele, il will be remembered. was the
party who was arrested Wednesday even
ing when the X. & t. train came in, ON
request of the Fort Scott marshal.
Last night Policeman Rolla Coates,
of the Fort Scott police force,
arrived in the city. A BAzooITE on inter
viewing him learned that Steele, Tuesday
morning had driven five beeyes belonging 10
his uncle. a farmer residing about
two and half miles from Lilch6eld, TO
that place and sold them at the rate OF
1878 per 100 pounds, TO c. HI. Willhof,
who is agent for the Rogers Coal company.
Steele contracted for the be, yes the day
previous and delivered them atabout :
o'clock and Immediately left the place in
the morning. His uncle came in about two
hours later and claimed the cattle
The beeves must have amounted TO near
500, but only S2S.l5 was found upon
Sleele's person. He claims that the pea
nntter on the road beat him out of $500
What he did with the remainder is not
known.
Steele will be taken back this morning
at 4:30 to Fort Scott where he will be
tried.

FRISKY FAM.
After Enjoying Himself at Holden
He Leaves for More Con-
genial Cline.

Four years ago next March "Dora" Co.
nard married Virginia Dixon, at Holden.
Three or four days after the marriage a
child was born. Immediately upon Its
birth the father, who was a bricklayer by
trade, left for parts unknown, and has not
been seen or heard of since.
The mother, who was about seventeen
years old, went to the house of John Fain,
teamsier at Holden, who was once in
good circumstances, and where she has
since resided.
Jim Fain, who drove q team al the brick
yard, and is nephew of John Fain, be-
gan, after some Zine elapsed, 10
show. attentions to the Widow Co
nard, by which name she was
then known. Nothing was thought OF or
about the two for awhile, as they were nat
urally thrown together considerably; In
fact, no one suspected anything wrong
until Jim was missed at his accustomed
haunis. Then il was found that he, taking
advantage of Virginia's residence at his
uncle's, had with all the responsiveness and
ardor of youth, caused Virginia TO agree
TO an Illicit love, the existence of which
was neither known nor suspected by any
person until the time when Fain failed 10
appear. This, together with the actions
o. the girl in the case, led 10 the discovery
of the licit love which had existed be-
tween them.
Virginia is very very sorry, as is usual
in such cases, and spends most of her
time in weeping at her indiscretion.
The present indications are that she will
within the next few months give birth to
an illegitimate child.

SERIOUS FOR SMITH.
He Falls Down the Stairs at Mrs.
Letters Boarding
House

About q quarter past seven last night
Mr.. G. Smith met with serious accident
at Mrs. F. Letters boarding house, al 603
West Main street.
II seems that Mr. Smith, who had failed
TO put in an appearance at dinner time
came ia late to supper somewhat under the
influence Of liquor. He refused to eat any
supper, and after some moments passed in
conversation started up stairs to his bed.
He had had about time to get two thirds of
the way up when the lsndlady heard fall.
She thought at first il was thu boarders in
the front room and went TO their door to
ask them to make less NOISE, but finding
they were quiet, went into the hallway and
found Mr.. Smith living at
the foot of the stairs with
his head against the front door and pool
of blood on the floor beside him. Mrs.
Letter started for assistance AZ met Officers
Gossage and Mcpherson. While one vent
10 the house the other started for a doc
tor.
When Dr.. Neil arrived Smith was re-
moved from the floor and placed upon an
improvised table. On making an exam
ination the doctor pronounced ii case of
conclusion of tt brain.
When the ood..caused by the hemorrage
had been washed away il was found that
the right side of Smiths head and face was
badly bruised Aside from this he will in
all probability be all right when his stupOr
passes of. although the fall was enough to
break his neck.
Smith is r man 81 wears old and has
worked at the carpenters trade, although
he claims to be an engineer by profession.
He is the father of w. b. Smith, former
conductor on the middle division OF the
Pacific.

/" Twenty-One."

There could not be found in Sedslis yester-
day a man willing to acknowledge that he
voted against the court house proposition.
1t was generally known, however, that
tweRty-one voters had the hardihood TO
walk up to the polls and cast their ballots
against the measure, which will secure to
Sedalia a "long felt want" and relieve
Peitis comfy of the odium which attaches
to her fair name as the seventh county In
