The SUNDAY Law.

The jefferson City Tribune, COM
men ting on the recent order of Mayor
Stevens says: 1.-The order issued by
Mayor Stevens, of Sedalia, closing all
saloons on the Sabbath, went into
effect at II o'clock last Saturday
night. All the saloon men complied
with it, and for the first timesin many
years a glass of beer could not be
purchased in Sedalia Sunday. AL
though a respectable number oppose
the enforcement of the Sunday law,
vet the great majority of the people
are delighted, and look upon it as a
step in the right direction. 1t is also
limited that the city authorities have
made up their minds to enforce the
johnson safeguarding law land break
up the gambling establishments. The
law has always been dead letter in
that city, and several gambling dens
have hourished for years within tive
blocks of police headquarters. The
city authorities have nObly performed
their duty, whilst the state officials
have been criminally remiss for many
wears"

THE DRESS GOODS DEPARTMENT
As TOiHannefelds Suit.

In yesterdays Democrat an article
appeared concerning suit commenc.
ed by Rosa A. Hannifield in the cir
cult court against Ben johnson, a sa-
loon keepertor having sold liqur to her
husband, Chas. HannefieId, an alleg.
ed habitual drunkari, after having
received legal notice from his wife
Mt to do so. The article is conclud.
ed in a manner calculated to do Mr..
j 'hnsOn injustice and prejudice his
case.
The BAZOo is not the advocate or
friend of the liquor traffic. It be-
lieves that the world would be better,
ITS people more prosperous and hap
py, if the entire traffic and consump-
ton of alcohol as beverage, could
be wiped out of existence. But so
long as a majority seem TO think
differently, and so long as the public
designate by legal processes, forms
and conditions under VIII ch the traffic
can be carried on, and by petition to
the courts authorize, sanction and APP
prove of its being carried on, the
BAzoo believes that those who engage
in the traffic, who pay the penalties
and taxes imposed fot the privilege
and comply with the laws and
restrictions governing it as parties to
a contract entitled to every protection,
privilege and guarantee that a con-
tract implies or gives, and will ever
stand ready to defend them the same
as any other citizen in their rights.
Mr.. johnson is well knoy n in Sedalia
as among the most Conscientious and
fair dealing of men engaged in his
business and one who honestly seeks
and desires To comply with the pro-
visions of the law. He has never be
fore been charged with any such of
tense, nor has he ever beer known to
tell a falsehood. For these reasons
he ought to be entitled to as fair deal
ing AID consideration as any other
citizen. Mr.. johnson states that the
only not &c ever served upon him by
Mrs. Hannefeld was one given yester-
day after suit was commenced, and of
which the following, written on one
of Hanneheld's own letter heads. is
an exact copy:
SEDALIA, Mo-, Dec. Is, 1886.
Ben johnson, you can --- my huS-
band, Chas. Hannifeld, have tree drinks a
day, but no more, and not anough to make
him druck.
Rosa y. HANNEFIELD.
As for Hannefeld, when he desires
TO stay sober he can do so, as he for a
long time belonged to the Good Tenn
plars, end would 60 as much as year
without touching liquor, though his
own wife would laugh at hime for not
taking an occasional glass of beer.

The st. Louis Stock Yards.

The St. Louis Chronicle says !:
Zone of the prominent livestock deal
ers in the country, spending a few
days in st. Louis, spoke freely on the
cattle business of the country. The
gentlemen is a member of livestock
commission firm which has offices In
st. Louis, Kansas City and Chicago.
He said that his St. Louis sales
amounted to about 10000 head of
rattle year.
st. Louis was quitea cattle point
about the time the National stock
ysrds at East st. Louis were erect
ed, he said, 'and the injury was sus-
tanned by the erection of the yards
across the river, instead of on this
side. They were built by a syndicate
of New York capitalists who put up
their money on investment. and who
considered St. Lonis the center of the
cattle trade. "This is the natural
distributing point for the cattle of the
great west, and long has been. | only
wish there had been the enterprise
and liberal spirit shown here a few
years ago that there is now. If there
had, st. Louis would not only have
been better cattle market, but big
ger town than Chicago, and men with
would now be worth
millions.

What is a cold in the head? Medica
authorities say it is due to atmospheric
germs, uneven clothing of the body, rapid
cooling when in perSpiratiOn, etc. The
important point is, that a cold in the head
is genuine rhinitis, an inflammation of the
lining membrane of the nose, which, when
unchecked rs certain to produce catarrhal
condition for catarrh is essentially a
"cold" which nature is no longer able to
resolve" or throw of. Ely's Cream Balm
has proved its superiority, and sufferers
from cold 10 the head should resort to it
before that common ailment becomes seat
ed and ends in obstinate catarrh.

Obituary..

STow.-In North Calais, November Sth,
Eliza wife of Alonzo Stow, passed from her
earthly home to a better land. Mrs. Stow
had resided in Calais for thirty EIGHT years
and was well known and highly esteemed
by the entire community. She leaves to
mourn her loss husband, son and two
daughters, one of whom is an invalid. This
seems the saddest bereavement that could
have befallen her. for she so much needs the
care that none but mother can give. She
has faithfully and patiently watched over
her for years and was beside her, ready to
crafty every wish or desire which might be
manifested, when she was stricken down
by the fatal illness. But o, the loneliness
of the husband, in the evening of his life,
to have called from him the companion who
has journeyed by his side for tifty-three
years and has ever worn the same sunny
smile as in the spring-tme of their life
Though Affections have oftentimes visited
them she murmured not, but was ever
cheerful, with kind and encouraging words
for all She leaves large circle of friends
who feel that her death to them is a per-
sonal bereavement. Her trust was in God.
May our Father in Heaven look down with
much mercy and bind up the broken hearts
of this afflicted family. M.

The TOwnshend Fire.

An associated press despatch says of the
fire at Townshend, VT, Friday night: The
people worked desperately all night in a
binding snow storm and until after day
light next morning to bring under control a
disastrous fire, which started in a room used
for the storage of kerosene oil in Knapp's
store, on the west side of Main street. This
was a two-story brick building with an l.,
the latter being occupied by Miss Austin IS
millinery store, and was soon destroyed,
with portion of the goods. The two-story
post-office building, owned by Williams &
Bruce of Wardsboro, was the next to burn,
together with Charles Cutters dwelling,
both on the west side of the Knapp build
ing. The flames then spread to Taft's, Will
kinson's and Howe's dwellings on the
south, all of which were burned together
with Taft's and Howes barns Here the
townspeople succeeded in checking the
flames, which luckily did not cross the
street, though not until the dwellings of
Marshall Martin and Mr.. Porter had been
considerably damaged. A large part of the
contents of the buildings burned was saved
There was little wind at the time, which,
together with the fact that heavy snow
storm prevailed, was favorable TO saving
street. Knapp's store building. the goods
in which had just been sold to w. b. Phil
lips, was insured in the Phoenix, Hartford,
for S1,700. Miss Austins millinery stock
was insured for $3.50, while Phillips stock
of goods was insured for $1,000 in the Hart
ford and Phoenix and Hartford. Cutters
dwelling, with its contents, insured for
$1,000 in the New England of Rutland. The
| Vermont Mutual is understood to have most
of the insurance on the dwellings. The loss
has not been estimated
