Colonel ChurchhiIrs Runaway Girl,

The feeling in st. Louis with regard to
the disappearance Of Colonel Churchhilps
daughter has somewhat abated, the discov-
cry OF letters left behind her showing that
she was badly stage struck and leading to
the belief that she ran away to join some
theatrical company. The police are taking
but little interest in the case, but the fam
lily and friends Of the girl still insist that
some dreadful doom has Oyertaken her.

both favorable and unfavorable What
ever its past experience has been. how
ever it gives us great pleasure to state
ing condition. Its prospects grow
brighter day by day until we begin to
feel the truth of the saying, that nothing
succeeds like success. Each day brings
manifold evidence that our efforts are
being appreciated, and the. ARGUS starts
on its thirty-third year of usefulness
| in a MANNER that is most satisfac
tory to the proprietor. In re
turn for the many favors extended,
the ARGUS returns its humblest thanks,
and assures its patrons that their kindness
will not be forgotten. In the future as in
the past the ARGUS will labor for the PEG.
pie, and will oppose monopOlies of what
ever nature. 1t still adheres to the JEFF
fersonian principles of democracy
knowing it to be the only true doctrine
