Well Said.

Bates couty's member of the Con-
gresslonal committee will favor Rich
Hill as suitable place for holding
the Congressional convention. Rich
Hill had spoken first, consequently
no other point in the county should
present any claims, as it would serve
to defeat them both. There has
been ample opportunity for other
points to ''speak out in meeting"
Nothing has been SAID, and the COM
mitteeman from this county has gly-
en- his pledge to vote for Rich Hill
first, last and all the time. We do
not merely favor Rich Hill because
is IN the county, but because it is
convenient to a majority of the coun-
ties OF the district, they have good
hotel facilities and other accommo-
dations to suit. We like Lamar, we
like Osceola and other places, but
We will say to the boys throughout
the district that splendid time will
be had at Rich Hill. The people
are le-souled, not narrow minded.

programme The attendance was
very large. The number present
beng estimated a. from 1000 to

titul repast was served the mass OF
people were entertained by the Hon.
John A. Brooks. of Warrensburg.
He delivered his big speech the
same that he delivered about one
year ago, good prohibition speech.
We think from all indications that
the Hon. expects to be governor of
Missouri, before many campaigns
shall have passed; but we think he
will have to JON some polite al party
before he gets there as we do not
think we ever heard or read of a
man being elected Governor without
taking sides with some political
party. He spoke of the wonderful
trickery gong on in the old parties,
but we think new party would be
guilty of the same, in order to ''get

Nine men out of every ten in this
part Of Bates county are for Can't
for congress, the tenth is for Stone

generally understood that the Par

gotten tired of trickery. We think
that when man is qualified to fill

An Interioper In This World.

Elnathan Needender is sorry he was
born. Not that he doesn't enjoy life in
mis- way, but he knows he did the world
great wrong when he presumed to have
himself born into it. He begs to assure
you that it wasn't wholly his fault, but
for so much of the fault as was his he
hopes you will accept his most humble
apology. He knows he is an interloper
in this world but if you will please be so
kind as to forgive him this time he will
never do it again. Ii you see anything
else that ought to be apologized for he
will take great pleasure in begging par
don for it. Once, when Elnatllan was a
young man, he half-apologetically raised
his hat to young lady on the street. As
she did not happen to see him he turned
to beg her pardon for recognizing her
first and bumped into man who was
hurrying about his business. Turning To
apologize to that man Elnathan bumped
into another on the other side. Facing
about TO beg his pardon he ran against
still another.
That was when Elnathan was a young
man. He is near the middle of life now.
and still is humping and turning and
apologizing and humping his way along
the thoroughfare of life, wondering why
he never gets on. The world is rushing
oy him. and he is iostled and whisked
this way and that, begging the worlds
pardon for always being under foot.
Elnathan will one of these days lie down
to die, and when he does he will murmer
last low apology for all the air he has
breathed out the worlds store, and give
up his ghost begging eternity's pardon
for giving it so mean thing. Chicago

Childish and simple-NIinded Aztecs.


The Aztec Indians down in Mexico,
of whose antiquity and traditions we hear
so much, are very peculiar people,
said General Eastern Agent Keller, of
the Mexican Central road. They are
something like the Chinese in their in
ventive genius and their habit of keeping
to themselves, but they are very childish
and supplemented. We had curious
and lamentable illustration of this when
our first locomotive began running
through their territory. The Aztecs re-
garded our engines as a species of their
horses or mustangs, and believed they
could jump and romp around just as
those animals do.
"Three of them were by the track one
day when a locomotive was coming, and
thought they would like to see if it could
jump higher in the air than either of
their mustangs could. So they placed
several logs of wood on the track and
made hurdle of them for the locomo-
tive to vault. OF course there was n
wreck. One of the train hands thought
the train was surrounded by Indians and
shot one of the trio. The other two were
captured and brought to trial. but it was
so evident that their action was entirely
free from malice and prompted solely by
curiosity that they were allowed to go
free."-New York Letter.

The results of experiments with eight
cen varieties of cheese are given in
Beidermann's Centralblatt. Cheddar, q
rich and highly favored English cheese
was digested in the shortest time, foul
hours, while unripe skinned cheese re-
quired ten. There is little difference in
the digestibility of all sorts of hard
cheese or all soft cheese. Fat cheeses
dissolve the most rapidly. Taking into
consideration the quantity of nitrogen
dissolved, the writer concluded that, on
account of its great proportionate diges.

simpIe Cure for Sore Throat.

Everyone has cure for sore throat
but simple remedies appear to be most
effectual. Salt and water is used by
many as gargle, but a little alum and
honey dissolved in sage tea is better.
An application of cloths wrung out OF
hot water and applied to the neck
changing as often as they begin to cool
has the most potency for removing in.
f'ammation of anything we ever tried
1t should be kept up for number OF
hours; during the evening is usually the
most convenient time for applying this
remedy.-Scientific American.

ANOTHER Rebellion PREDICTED.

The publication by the newspapers
of General Sherman's late Grant
Smith letter, along with his previous
denial of any such utterance, and the
text Of his proposed treaty at the close
of the war, has caused the irritated old
soldier to illuminate bull against the
press Of a most sweeping and even
startling character. In a recent inter-
view he stated emphatically that "the
tyranny Of the press in this country Is
becoming simply awful. 1t is worse
than the old tyranny of the slave.
holders. 1t will cause a worse revolu-
ton than slavery did. 1t will not be
bloodless, either. Why. the gossip of
the press has destroyed social freedom
of intercourse. 1t has made men
afraid Of their neighbors. 1t has led
t. general suspicion and distrust. No
man can open his mouth any more
and be sure that his confidence will
be respected. No man can write
to his acquaintance and be sure that
his letter will not appear in print.

sanguinary outgiving, but the old gen.
eral will forget all about it in week,

slips of the tongue or lapse of memory

Tony PASTOR has been expressing
his views on the morality of stage
spectacles, although he said he was
hardly fair judge of the proprieties,
having been brought up in circus, so
that perhaps his sensibilities were a
little blunted. These spectacles, he
thought, were demanded by the pub
lie just now, and what the public
wanted IL would get. There was a
limit, however, that would be in time
reached. There was species of
society plays. the plots of which were
certainly immoral, while the charac-
tiers were properly dressed. In the
spectacular burlesques, on the other
hand, the stories and situations were
absolutely clean. When these were
combined there would be trouble.
Lack of both clothes and morality
would be too much, and when this
was reached the end would come.

Good Advice to Letter-wr,ters.

1t may be well to quote few sentences
from the circular given to every visitor
at the dead letter office:
"Write or print your name and address
on the upper left-hand corner of all mail
matter. This will insure its immediate
return to you for correction if improp-
erly addressed or insufficiently paid and
if it is not called for at destination, it can
be returned to you without going to the
dead letter Office. If the patrons of the
mails would avail themselves of this
privilege it would enable the department
TO restore to the sender at least 80 per
cent. of all the undelivered matter. Let
tiers would be returned free, and parcels
upon payment of the return postage.
Register all valuable letters and pack
ages. Registry fee, 10 cents, which,
with the postage, must be fully prepaid.
The name and address of the sender must
be given on the outside of the envelope
or wrapper Of all registered articles.
in sending newspapers, books, pam.
phlets, and other articles by mail to for
eign countries, or to distant points
within the United States, the address
should always be placed on the articles
enclosed as well as on their wrappers.
Should the wrappers become detached,
as they frequently do, through friction
and movement incident to mail trans
portation by sea or land, it will still be
possible to deliver the articles if this pre-
caution is taken. Persons to whom such
packages are regularly sent from Europe,
or other places abroad, should advise
their correspondents to adopt the above
suggestion. Exchange. =.
