Brske His Arm.

Last Saturday Rich Wheeler, son OF
Alfred Wheeler, broke his arm In very
peculiar manner. He was getting ready to
take horseback ride, being in the stable

had his right hand on the horse, which
being startled at the call, gave a lurch
back, knocking young Wheeler's elbow
against the side OF the stable, breaking
one Of ths bones Of his wrist, which wa,
properly set, aRd il knitting fast.

Respectfully,

Why do we seek with anxious mind,
Fer something which we ne'er can find.
Why strive with doubling, longing heart
To master poetry or art.
We may find poetry in books,
A nd art wherever we chance to turn,
Yet when we get what most we need,
We'ro seeking and hope soon to learn.

Which easy is, we'll made and neat.
We're sure at r. & B. 8 will find

VIM. McGrah a section laborer from
Hughesville was admitted suffering with
lumbsgo.
Paul Wirich a Sedalia section lsborer
was also booked to be trested for tapeworm
DR.. Bane stated the boys were all getting
along admirably ct present. The greatest
draw back, he said, that he had noted was
a lack of games for indoors amusements
and as these were things not provided by the
authorities, be intimated the boys would
highly appreciate the gift of few packs OF
such cards as progressive euchre players
generally throw away, or in fact anything
In the shape of games, books, papers or
magazines which would enable them 10
while away the hours of convalesence.
As there are thousands of such things
thrown away daily it would be but a kind
act on the part of those thus disposing OF
them, to send them to the hospital or drop
them into the mail to be taken there.

Our Streets.

There was an entire absence of frost Fri
day night and the continued thsw of yester-
day made pedestrianism both difficult and
unpleasant and owing to the deep frost in
the ground the streets bore very sloppy
appearance. Officer Trip had out the
city's dodgers cleaning of the street cross
ings and received many smile from fair
lips and friendly mods from masculines for
his good work. In conversation with a
BAzoo reporter Mr.. Trip said that just as
soon rs the frost was out of the ground he
would commence thorough cleansing of
the city streets and alleys which would be
vigorously prosecuted with all the force
and means supplied him. He says, how
ever, unless the city council make some
arrangements for teams in addition to
those belonging to the city the work will
be very slow. Owing to the prevalent
opinion that the cholera will this year
make its appearance in this country and
the fact that sll cities have been urged BY
the highest medical authorities to prepare
for it, ii is but right and just that the mat
ter should receive careful attention. City
convicts can be made to do much of the
work and the city poor might also manv of
them be prO6tably employed In the same
way, and if the teams are not sufficient for
the work it would doubtless be economy to
hire sufficient TO make up the deficiency.

Horace II. Blanton, of Neysds, prose Gu

To joke him is fun, for Horace enjoys il
as much any one else.
But TO business.
The other day Horace had an engage
ment al Fort Scott. He boarded the south
bound train, and in sauntering through the
caches found young lady of his acquain-
lance. The two fell into pleasant con-
versation. Later the two were standing on
the n ar platform OF the car viewing the
passing scenery as The train was speeding
along at the rate of thirty miles an hour.
A gust of wind, sudden and vicious, blew
Horace's best hat of, and with it went his
wig Of rich dark brown hair, leaving the
hero OF this hairless and hstless.
The two walked back into the train to
find the passengers convulsed with laugh
ter. and Horace's dialemma in no wise re-
lieved.
AT the Scott depot Horace borrowed a
skull cap aud walked 10 the first hat store
and bought a head covering. His wig will
be purchased the first time be visits Kan

charge one Louis Gardner, a well-to-do
farmer residing eight miles southwest of
Sedalia on the Clinton road, whom he had
arrested on a warrant charging him with
several of the recent forgeries perpetrated
lately, as mentioned in yesterdays BAzoo.
Gardner, after his arrest, confessed that he
had forged the check passed upon Mr..
Parmerlee, and expressed desire to COM

upon his farm and stock. There are, how
ever, three other counts against Mr.. Gard
ner and he was lodged in Jail. His case

THE CAPITAL QUESTION.

What though the few oppose US,
The many lead our van,
! And the question, when submitted,
Will show better plan
Than 10 leave, like some Pompeii,
For ages buried deep,
The states initial city,
With her people half asleep.
They may keep their lard and rabbit,
And their oleomargsrine,
And their big and flowing muddy"
And their "Jacquilins" queen,
And their Bayard Taylor mem'ries,
And their ponds and 'poliy-wogs,"
But the capital no longer
Should be lost to view In fogs.
They may keep their boarding houses
They wouldn't do up here,
Where the people know their coffee
From a glass of stale old beer,
And the pillows hold some feathers,
Instead of swamp grown hay,
And the meat is legal rendered
By Dame Natures good old way.
They may keep their daily papers,
Their Journal and Tribune
By putting them together
They may sdyertise-the moon.
And their loyal CD hearted people
Who want the state to make
A big appropriation
For their sweet, unselfish sake.
They may keep their ancient prestige
Where ;hey neither sell nor buy
Their "heslihy high location"
Where no Legislators die %
Their one connecting railroad
With the big aud stirring world
We have enough without them
And our banner is unfurled.
They hate us for our progress
For our name and growing fame
And they whine and tell the public
We are robbers" and to blame
But we pity and forgive them
Since the truth We cannot down
We are young, but we are SASSY"
And we'll win and wear the crown.
And all we asks Submission"
And "deap that's on the square,
We are not afraid the peOTle
Will be otherwise than fair,
And give TO grand Missouri
A capital TO grace
And leave poor JEFF predesiined-
As a relic End her place.

Police Pointers.

There was pretty fair sprinkling OF de-
linquents before his honor Recorder Rsuck
yesterday, and the total footings OF fines
amounted TO S4S, as follows: John Scan
Ian and John Sample. $ each for plain,
unornamented DRINKS. Charles Hinress
trespassed, his honor thought, to the
amount OF s., while his more veuturesome
companion, Joseph Scott, got in SO wor tn
of diversion. John Pee!ers, who ornament.
ed his intrusive proclivities with vagrancy,
was politely called upon for S25, but not
having any blank checks about him, went
below while somebody could find him one.
Al Foster so bitterly and earnestly denied
the charge of disturbing the peace that
the recorder permitted him 10 60 unpun-
ished.
Marshal Tilley put in an appearance
with duly accredited warrant from the
California authorities, demanding him TO
produce before the proper magistrate the
body of William Stone, TO answer 10 the
charge Of stealing a shot gun at that place,
as mentioned in yesterdays BAZoo, and
Stone was turned over to Tilley by Chief
Barnett.

Mrs. Bluemm evidently had not heard that
her son had been sent on his homeward
way some time ago.

made happy yesterday by receiving wal
