Business Transacted at q Special
Session Yesterday.

A special session of the county court Of
Pettis county was held yesterday, and most
of the day was consumed on Q road case in
Flat Creek township. A petition was pre-
scented to the court, requesting the opening
of certain new road in that part of the
county, but to that petition objections were
made by other citizens of the neighborhood.
Counsel Vas employed on each side, and
considerable time was spent in . windy A.
gument pro and con, and finally the road
Commissioners was ordered out By the court
to make q report.
Besides the appointment of Sylvester
Robertson as road overseer in district FIVE,
township forty-seven and range twenty.
three, there was only one other matter of
ally importance before the court, and that
was the case of Maude Stevens, q girl ten
years of age, who is both deaf and dumb.
It was ordered by the court that it be
certified to the commissioner of the Mis-
souri, institute for the education of the deaf
and dumb that she is Q suitable applicant
for admission thereto, and it is probable
that ere long the girl will be under course
of training.

New Enterprise.

1t is becoming q we'll known fact that
Sedslia is foremost in every enterprise
which can add to her progress either 6nan-
cially or in regard to the interests of hu-
manity at large. In view of this there ar
rived yesterday, Miss McGinnis, q very
intelligent and worthy blind lady of ST.
Louis, who is in charge of theRlind Girls
Industrial Home in that city. Mis-. Nc
Ginnis came to this city with view, if
the proper encouragement can be given, to
removing the institution from St. Louis to
this point. 1t seems for some time it has
been q question with the managers of the
institution whether it would be better TO
remain in St. Louis or remove to . more
central point, and it was finally decided to
adopt the latter plan. In looking about,
Sedalia seemed to be desirable point, and
in consequence Miss McGinnis was sent
here to make inquiries relative to that re-
suit. The institution is not a charitable
affair in any respect, but it is entirely self
supporting and has already upon hand a
fund of from six to seven thousand dollars,
which is placed in the hands of some of
st. Louis most prominent citizens, who act
as trustees for the institution. The plan is
that the sum of three thousand dollars will
be used from the aims fund for the purpose
Of providing a suitable building for the
Industrial Home, but in case it should ex-
coed that sum the citizens ofSedalia should
furnish it. The enterprise is certainly q
worthy enc, and should be looked into and
some action taken. Miss Ginnis comes we'll
recommended, and the matter will be
brought before the ministers and promi-
nent men of the city by Rev. Van Wagner
who approves earnestly of the plan, and
will give it his support.

A CARD.
the /, il, Athens DRY GOODS BAZAAR.

Mrs. Elizabeth Ahrens takes this mode of extend
ing her sincere thanks to the friends and patrons of the
above establishment for the very liberal patronage, as
well as for the confidence and trust reposed in her hus-
band. Mrs. Ahrens also begs to state that the business
will be continued by herself and son, Ed. w. II. Ahrens,
under the above firm name, and by strict integrity and
close attention to business, trust to retain the confidence
and to merit a continuance of all former patronage of
the b. J. E. Ahrens Dry Goods Bazaar, as we'll as the
public in general. In consequence of the affection cast
upon herself and family through the death of her hus-
band, just at a time when business should have been
pushed with all the energy possible during the month
of December) the business, as all can readily understand,
could not receive the proper attention. On the contrary
it was much neglected, customers frequently not receiv-
ing the attention due them, and consequently many
goods are now upon the shelves that could have been
disposed of either before or during the holidays. As a
result of this, as well as a result of the fact that for this
seasons trade an unprecedentedly large stock of Dry
Goods had been brought on, the stock now is more than
as large again as it should be-. In fact, with only a few
exceptions, it is as complete in assortment style, &c, as
it need be in the midst of the busy season. As every
body is aware, stocks at this season of the year should be
at their lowest ebb, and in order to thus put it in proper
shape, and, more especially, to facilitate as much as
possible the winding up of the estate by the executors,
Mrs. Elizabeth Ahrens and Ed. w. Il. Ahrens, they will
from this day on make every effort to reduce the same.
To do this tho entire stock of Staple and Fancy Dry
Goods, Notions, &C., which, as already stated, is full and
complete in all lis departments, is offered for Cost and
Less than Cost.
All who are in need of anything pertaining to the
Dry Goods line are advised to call early and avail them
selves Of the advantages now offered, and which, under
other circumstances than those mentioned, could not be
offered. 1t is hoped that the patrons and the public in
general will not look upon this as simply an adverds-
ing dodge. The facts and the reasons given, and which
will be carried out in good faith, it is trusted, are sufi-
GENTLY obvious to all and may be justi6able.
