Twenty-Five Shots Exchanged I'm
the X & T.. Yards and no
Blood Spilled,

Last night about 10 o'clock Special
Officer Viii lam Scally, brakeman, while
i'm the south end of the X. & T. yards, be-
tween Osage and Kentucky streets, re-
ceived information that gang of fourteen
men had Just gone down the track. The
officer hast ned forward and came up with
the trespassers, who refused to obey
the order TO leave the track, until a
pistol was drawn on them. About
this time Special Officers Charles Holland,
William Dawson, a conductor, and E. C..
Gould, a brakeman, hearing OF the four
teen men, went to the rescue of Officer
Scslly, but by this time the gang had dis
appeared. The four officers then began an
investigation as 10 the cause of so many
men being in the yards at that honr, and to
ascertain where they had gone and what
they were doing. At Usage street they
heard steps behind them, and turning,
Officer Holland threw his dark lantern in
the face of big negro, who at once drew q
revolver and began firing. The first
shot went through Officer Hollands hat
and the second and third penetrated Officer
Scally's clothing. one going through the
right shoulder and the other through the
right sleeve of his coat. The negro then
turned and fed, closely pursued by the
officers, who sent eighteen shots after him.
Four of these he returned, but soon disap-
peared in the darkness. The officers are
of the opinion that the negro was MORALLY
wounded, but q close investigation failed
TO reveal any traces Of blood.

For the Farmers.

b. ). Rembaugh, manufacturer of the
celebrated No. 8 -four, is still prepared to
furnish farmers and all others, with this
unexcelled article. Certain parties in
Sedalia have seen fit to wage war upon Mr.,
Rembaugh, to boycott him so to speak, be-
cause in defense of the principles of law
and order, and to redeem the fair name of
our city, from the disgrace in which certain
lawless and irresponsible parties would
plunge it, had the courage to declare that
none who were connected with an organi-
zation which countenanced such acts of
lawlessness could remain in his employ.
The Knights of Labor who were working
for Mr.. Rembaugh, at once recognizing the
mistake they had made, resolved to staRd
with their employer on the side of law and
order and are with him to-day. Farmers
and all others should remember this and
make the sales of the No. 8 -four larger
than ever.

Brought Back.

Some time last summer a colorsd man,
sailing under the somewhat famous cogno-
men of jesse James, was arrested on the
charge of making deadly assault upon an
old gentleman by the name of Cartwright
with fence rail. The murderous con
was arrested and arraigned before justice
of the peace TO answer TO the charge of as
sault with intent to kill. He was bound
over in the sum of $500 for his appearance
at the November term of the criminal
court, Mr.. ]. Z. B uldin becoming his
surety. Shortly before court convened,
Jesse becoming little uneasy as to what
his fate would be, left for parts unknown,
not returning to stand HE trial and leaving
his bondsman 10 hold the bag. A few days
ago Mr.. Bouldin received pointer as TO
the probable whereabouts of the abscond-
ing Jesse and started out in search of him
being armed with the authority of adeputy
sheriff to arrest him and bring him back
should he be so fortunate as to find him.
After a wearisOme search through a very
rough country, Mr.. Bouldin Thursday
evening came up with his man in what is
known as the Meramec bottoms, in St.
Louis county. The fugitive from justice
made 10 objection TO coming back, and
was last evening safely landed in the coun-
ty Jail

DIR. A. A. Davis, of Longwood, one OF
the pioneer physicians of Pettis county,
died at his residence at Green Lawn Acad-
envy yesterday morning of pneumonia,
aged about SO years.
DIR. Davis was born in Virginia April
18th, 1927. While boy he emigrated to
this state with his father, who srttled in
Saline county. The doctor received his
medical education in Louisville, KY,
where he graduated in 1856. He then To-
Gated in Illinois and practiced his profess
sion several years, when he returned to
Missouri, engaging in practice in the north
east part of the state. In 1860 he settled
at Longwood, where he has since remained.
Deceased was highly esteemed as q ply
stefan and citizen by a wide circle of
friends and acquaintance. His wife and
two children, son and a daughter, survive
him.
The funeral will take place this after
noon at o'clock at the family residence.
The remains will be inferred in the family
burying ground at Longwood.

Tall Men.

Two men, each seven feet high, attracted
no little attention at the depot asst nj hit.
One Of them added considerably to his
lengthy appearance by plug hat. They
are brothers by the name of Shields, from
Greenville, Texas, and on their way 10
New York, to join a museum. There are
seven brothers of this family, all of whom
have reached this remarkable heighth and
all of them rent themselves to museums
during the spring and summer months.
When at home they engage in agricultural
pursuits, and a gentleman who was once
on their rancho recognized them as they sat
in the waiting room at the depot. He says
when he saw them in Texas, he came upon
ali seven of them blowing in a field and
his first conclusion was that he had wan
dered into a country peopled with giants.
The physique of the two long gentlemen is
by no means on the Adonis order, but
rather of the gawky country specimen,
presenting very much the appearance of
running to seed.

SEDALIA WEEKLY BAZOO. TUESDAY MARCH 80, 1885,

can eface. The time has come when
the proper use of the boycott will be
mora effective in the settlement of
difficulties than the use of courts. 1t
is the poor mans friend and the enemy
only of injustice and fraud.
The Golden rule that applies to all
men bids us that Whatsoever We
would that men should do unto you,
do you even so unto them," and the
boycott is founded upon this rule, and
is the just punishment for breaking it.
To the honest and honorable man
there are no terrors in the uniting of
workingmen. The use of the boycott
is not against him. But to the OPP
pressor it is terror by night and by
day. The men who complain are
themselves the first to necessitate the
use of it, and, in their small way,
they use it against those who have
come under the ban Of their displeas-
ure. The commercial agencies, and
black lists of the business men, are
boycotts in q crude from and against
this there he's been no cry. But when
the people rise and demand equality
the weapon used is denounced by the
instigstors of it.

4 SENSUOUS SCOUNDREL.
His Dastardly Attempt to Take
Advantage Of an UnprO-
tected Woman.

Living a few miles from Lincoln, lit
tie town on the narrow gauge railroad, is a
family composed of husband, wife and two
little daughters. The head of the family
has been confined to his bed by illness for
some time, and in the absence of any other
male inmate of the house, the outdoor
work has devolved almost entirely upon
the wife and little girls. Learning of the
unprotected condition of the family, a
black-hearted, lecherous villain, residing
In Lincoln, went to the house few even
ings since and by representing himself to
be the brother-in-law of gentleman well
and favorably known to the family, Sc
cured their confidence and was Hospitality
received. He stated that he was i'm pur-
suit of couple of thieves whom he ex-
pected to pass there that night. After sup
per he endeavored to engage the lady and
her daughters I'm conversation
and acted in such manner
as to srouse the suspicious of the
former. At the usual bed time the visitor
was shown to his room and the family re-
tired. The dastardly villain, however, did
not 60 to bed, as now was his opportunity
to attempt the accomplishment of his
hellish work. Shortly after the house had
become still aad the members of the family
supposed their guest had retired, he sur
prised them by asking for lantern, saying
he wanted to take q look around. He was
directed where he could find lantern il,
the kitchen, but pretended that he could
not find it. The lady arose and pro-
cured it for him. He then asked for
match, and as the object of his lust turned
around to enter another room, he confront
ed her, barring the entrance and making
to her the most indecent proposals. The
now thoroughly frightened woman indig-
nantly resented the gross insult offered her,
but the villain was persistent and his in
tended victim commenced looking around
for something with which to defend herself.
The invalid husband was awakened by the
noise and Cne of the little girls was sent to
a-certain the trouble. Thus exposed, the
contemplate cur began to beg that
the consequences of his act might not be
visited upon his miserable head. He was
ordered from the house and sneaked away
like midnight assassin. Ii is understood
that his case will be investigated by the
grand jury.
The names of the parties to this rather
episode are in possession Of the
BAzoo, but are suppressed at the earnest
request of the unto: tunate family.
