Dafyin9 q Grand Jury.

Mexico, Mo-, Jan. 30.-J. H. Hall, the
druggist who Wednesday refused TO answer
questions before the grand jury and was
sent to jail for contempt still languishes
behind the bars. Hall was interviewed to-
day by your correspondent, and reiterates
that he will stay in Jail until the day oil
judgment before he will give the name oi
the grand jurors from whom he de-
rived his information concerning indict-
ments against him. People generally give
Hall credit for the course he is taking In
the matter, and says Ii is the jurors place
to step to the front and shoulder the re-
sponsibilitiv. Several leading citizens
went to Hall and told him they would pay
the fine of the Juror II his identity were
made known. The stubborn druggist re
fused to listen to any such proposition, and
replied that nothing would induce him 10
tell his informer's name; that il il was ever
made known the juror would have to tell
it himself. Hall is at the mercy
of Judge Robinson until he answers
the questions propounded to him.
Thus the matter stands, and is likely to re,
main In ststu quo until one or the other
gives In. What the result will be can not
even be prophesied, as Hall is well known
as man of more than ordinary grit and
courage.
Mr.. Hall, who is a well known republi-
can, and who was sheriff of this county
during "the times that tried mems souls,
stoutly claims he is being prosecuted for
his political opinions; that every druggist
in the city sells whisky contrary to law
aud Just why at every term OF court be
should be signslled out from among
half dozen or more druggists and made 8
target of by the grand jury be is at loss to
know, unless it is political prejudice against
him. However this may b., number oil
good citiz ms admit that there seems 10 CROP
out of the matter more or less persecution
OF Hall, who, being a very plain and out
spoken citizen, of course has some enemies
Among these, Hall claims is Thos
who has slwsys been "nosing" into hi,
business, he says Mr.. Hall told your cor
respondent that he had advertised every
thing he had Tor sale in several publication:
in st. Louis, and that as soon as he could
sell out ne would only be too glad 10 get
clear out of the state He is al English
man, has lived here fifteen years or more
and Is known as a man who will do Just
what he says. Considerable interest is Ia
ken in the matter and scarcely anything
else is talked Of

1t is stated that a prominent Sedslian
and female of questionable character had
a small sized racket yesterday, which end
ed about this wise: The female has been
trying for some time to get rid of her para
mour and seek pastures new, and made .
contract With a second hand man to bay
her household effects. The male party got
on to the scheme and endeavored to stop
proceedings by threatening to hurt the
aforesaid female with a"pop" which he
Carried. The second hand man had to
come and get the goods piece at time, so
that the irate man would not suspect any
thing was going on. Finally the lady Cd
got tired Of "monkeying," to use her own
words, and sent word to the dealer to come
and get the goods. The stair one" em-
bsrked on tie K. & T. train south last
night, and vsmoosed for the blue grass
state, without leaving thesaforesaid partner
her adieux.

Kind Words.

l.. LIE VIII
Now / want to make you enemies
of everything that antagonizes the
marriage relation. The most of you,
born of honorable parentage, l want
to swear you by the cradle in which
you were rocked, and the family alter
at which in childhood you knelt, and
the graves of your christian father and
mother, if they have laid down beside
each other in the last sleep, to set
your faces against the influences
which would bring marriage into dis
repute. Remember the best eulogy
that you can pass upon the institution
is to make your own home relations
right and beautiful.
Do not take Offense too easily from
each other. Remember that unkind
words or unhappy treatment is often
not a matter of the heart but matter
of the nerves. Husbands at the store
and wives with household anxieties
have their equipois unbalanced. But
few men and wsmen In America have
any nerves that are worth speaking of.
The delicate telegraph wires OF the
body are damaged by the storms, and
so let the lightnings of temper run
over them irregularly.
Know that these relationships at
the longest will be brief. Spare all
the harsh words you can and all severe
retorts as far as possible, for before
long hearse will drive up to your
door, and from your presence will be
taken out the best friend you have in
all the world and the richest earthly
boon that God has in His omnipotence
and in6nity capacity to bestow-a
good wife. When child is taken,
! that desolates the home, but a wife's
departure desOlates all the house and
all the heart and all the earth. The
silences are so appalling after her
voice is still, the vacancies so CHASTITY,
the gloom as though the midnight of
fifty years hurtled.
A child wandering from room to
room with q hurt finger crying for
mother, who will not Uu1ne, auu wax

drink, saying, "No want mother to

"reminiscences rushing upon tle
soul like a mountain torrent over
which cloud has burst. Her Jewels,
her books, her dresses, suggestive OF
banquet or buriels, put into the trunk,
the fall of whose lid, with heavy thud,
seems to say: Dead" The morn
ing dead, and the night dead, and the
air dead, and the world dead; tell
you, 0 man, in that hour, if never
before, you would be willing to pay
out in red coin of red blood every
drop from your heart to buy back all
the hasty and reckless words you have
uttered, and all the sights. But you
cannot buy them back. Words gone
forth from your lips fly not in circles
SO as to come back again like doves to
their cote, but in a straight line a
million miles a minute across the
eternities. Flattering epitaphology,
though Dryden composed it, and
polished Aberdeen granite, though
Angelo chiseled it, could never atone
for unkindness to the living.
