A Slight Collision.

Yesterday morning through the
acknowledgement of some one of the
employees quite destructive collis-
took place at the depot, while No. 5,
from the east, was being made up
and the north bound cars being trans
ferred. Two cars were switched in
at the end Of the X. Il T. track, end
no brakeman being upon them, they
ran down the track colliding with the
sleeper, which was set on her beams
end and badly wrecked, the passen-
gers were uncerimoniously dumped
from their berths into the lower end
of the car. For a while confusion
worse COMPOUNDED" reigned supreme,
but when order was brought out of
chaos it was found that beyond a few
bruises and cuts no damage was done
to any one. The passengers were
transferred to another car and sent
on, and the displrced cars sent 10 the
shops for repairs.

SALVATIUSISTS.
they WhOOped Things up Yester-
day, and in the Evening
Gave a Banquet.

The SalsatiOnists, true TO their
promise, had a grand conscecration
meeting yesterday afternoon at their
"army barrao ks" and quite a number
of new recruits were conquered and
professed penitence. One old lady
named Rodecker was much enthused
and with the aid of Happy Adam and
a few others, had the courage to
henceforth declare herself a ''soldier
for Jesus" The meeting was adj
dressed by Col. Dowdle, not in the
finished oratOry of Vending, but
sufficiently eloquent and expressive
&C. show an earnestness in the cause
which won for him most favorable
comment. After the meeting closed,
the Salvationists to the number of
about fifty, formed into ranks, and
with drums beating and "hallelujah"
song rendering, marched through the
streets for the purpose of getting Gus
toners for the banquet which had
been laid by skillful hands at the
barracks" The banquet was neatly
spread and consisted of the most deli
cately prepared viands, such as meats,
salads, sandwiches, cakes, coffee,
fruits, etc. 1t was well worth the
small amount Of money charged for it,
and as it was for the benefit of the
poor. the BAzoo is glad to know it was
we'll patrenized. After the banquet
the swearing in of the new recruits
took place and then there was a grand
jubilee ofrejoicing. To-day there will
be another big "hallelujah" time and
at three p. NJ. an cid Christians free
and easy" which will doubtless b.
well attended. In the evening the
waves of power will shake the devils
kingdom" and for the performance the
sum of ten cents will be charged.
Altogether the Salvationists seem to
be having pretty good time and
more and more people attend their
meetings.

That Female Barber.

The editor of the Clinton Demo-
crat accompanied by his friend. Mr..
Andrea, was in this city yesterday,
and while there is nothing particular
remarkable in this fact, vet the fact
the gentlemen called on the BAzoo on
a rather peculiar errand has signif-
canoe. These gentlemen were hunt.
ing a barber; not common every
day, saddle cOlored and horney.hand-
ed male barber, but female barber.
Somewhere they had found the
following clipping and .straightway
their mbitious souls were fired with
a desire which meant to down all COM
petitors. This is the clipping:
There is female barber in Soda
liza, who is said to be as pretty as a
picture. Her hand is as soft as velvet
and she can ask you in nine different
languages CIVIL you have your nous
tache trimmed, dear? ?" The female
knight of the razor polishes the cheeks
of the editor of the BAzoo twice a
day."
There was but one way to get the
address of the female barber and
hence the gentlemen called on the
Bazoo and henceforward should these
gentlemen be found coming to Sedalia
semi-weekly. it will not be son bust
ness" merely, but for the purpose of
having "hand as soft as velvet" ap-
ply the lather to bearded cheeks and
hearing dulcet voice asking them to
have their "mustache trimmed" The
only real trouble about the matter is
that boards do not grow very rap
idly in Clinton-owing to the hard
ness of the average citizens cheek
and the editor and his friends were
obliged to invest in a number of bot
ties of a preparation warranted to
make whiskers grow in two hours"
while here, and they are afraid the
"busted" state of their wallets will
give the whole thing away when they
get home. As was said before. the
gentlemen will be found very often
coming TO this city in future, and if
some morning the subscribers to the
Democrat find the Office closed they
will make up their minds that he has
not fed from his creditors, but is in
this city getting shaved by the "vel-
vet hands" of the female barber.
