NO Votes fOrtHeard."


How does Mr.. Heard stand in Sa
line county," asked the BAzoo of {
well-known citizen of that section, yes
terday.
well, if he stands at all it is at the
foot of the class"
You do not think he will make
much of a race, them"
Much Of a race? Look here,
young man, do you know what kind
of people live in Saline county? Dc
you think because they are mostly
farmers like myself, they can be hood
winked by every politician that comes
along, or gulled by every idiot who
sets up to be an editor ?"
This broad side of questions was
too much for The scribe and he re-
NAMED silent by way of answer.
eff you do" continued the Saline
lite, "you are away off in your reckon
ing. The people of Saline want hon.
est men for Office as much as they want
honest men for help on their places
and they don't propose to elect any
other kind if they can help it."
"Do they think Mr.. Heard dis
honest ?"
"Do they think ? Well that is put
ting it pretty strong. They know
that two years ago the Sedalia Demo
Graf denounced him as a trickster, a
jobber, liar and everything else that
was mean and>dishonest and that Its
manager swore to the truth of what
he charged, and they know that when
they refused to believe this and sent
Mr.. Heard to congress in spite of it
that he put that same manager into
an office and fixed his paper for
him, and now that same manager and
that same paper is saying he is the
best and most honest man in the
world and that all it said before was
pack of lice. Do you believe there
is a straightforward man in the
county of Saline who can't see that
Heard has bought this paper either to
keep it from telling the truth as it did
before, or to keep it from
telling the same lies if they were
lies. In either case, he has done a
thing no honest, upright man
would do, and that is the way it is
looked on there"
$50 you think the Democrats sup
port is an injury to his chances ?"
"Just as much as its opposition was
an advantage before"
"Who do you think is likely to get |
your county,"
"Well, two weeks ago / thought it |
was doubtful, but / am satisfied now
that it will 60 to Cosgrove."

swell, no sir, | am not, but my
politics don't cut any figure in the
result, / tell you what / believe"
"What about the dark horse bust
ness?"
"Well, / don't care to be interview
viewed on that point. l believe John
Cosgrove will be the next congress
nan, but as to anything else wait and
zee. There may be certain combina-
ions which will change the result,
,ut one thing you can depend on,
here are no votes in Saline for

They Visited Several Residences
Last Night But Were Routed
by Plucky Ladies.

There exists In Sedalia as well as
in almost all other cities a certain
class of rather empty-headed dudes,
who, when partially under the inhu-
ence of liquor, imagine that Lille
Langtry, Mary Anderson, Fay Tenn
pleton or any other of the renowned
and fascinating beauties would he
only too glad to receive their atten-
tons. These idiots are libertines of
the most contemplate sort, not that
they are capable of doing very much
harm, but because they are very
annoying to all respectable people
utterly ignore such thing as virtue
in a woman, and when under the in
fuence of a small glass of beer, are
very liable to put the county to con-
siderable expense by running up a
large bill of costs for the coroner.
Tuesday night carriage, containing
a quartette of these brainless, but IL
centious whelps, started out to take in
the town. After driving around the
city for a considerable length of time,
they concluded to call on some
''ladies," but by an unfor-
tunate mistake, they CHANGED to
stop at the residence of Mr..
Richard Werdeman on Grand ave.
nue.. Mrs. Werdeman was alone,
and the rufians alighting from their
carriage, walked up to the front door
of the house, rafting the windows and
banging at the doors. Alarmed, of
course, but not for an instant losing
her courage, the plucky lady secured
her revolver and fired a couple of
shots at the dirty dogs, which caused
them to vacate the premises immedi-
diately and give her no further trou-
bic.
These drunken brutes, far worse
than the common drunkard who is
taken from the gutter and lodged in
the cooler, Should be ferreted out and |
severely punished, and the hack driver
who was guilty of carrying them to
the house of this defenseless lady,
should also be arrested and heavily
fined.
ANOTHER CASE.
Quite a commotion was created at
The western terminus of East Fifth
street about 2 a. m. yesterday, by the
sudden sound of shot fired from the
residence of Mrs. Ed. Boyd. Investi-
cation revealed that the shot had been
fred by Mrs. Boyd herself at an I'M
known intruder, but with what effect
Gould not be ascertained, as the mid
hight prowler had lost no time in put
ing himself beyond the danger line of
observation.
1t seems that since Mr.. Boyd left
home i'll search of employment, he be- '
ng one of the unlucky ex-railroaders, ;
drs. Boyd has been living alone, ex-
ept when some of her relatives would
pend a night with her. On several
ccasions persons have alarmed her by
tempting to get into the house. So ,
much indeed has she been disturbed, ,
hat she appealed to the police, who

GAINESVILLE Tobacco Market.

Our market still goes with hating

hogsheads changed hands. After the
sale good deal of private trading WIS

probably be 100 hhds., or more. The
offerings were all old crop, no new to-
bacco having yet appeared upon the
market. Prices appear very low in
deed to the planters, but when the

be found ss usual, higher than any
other western market. In the Districts

found a large crop of tobacco, but the
farmers views are very high. There is
but little tobacco shipped, though the

MAI. TF. HENRY.
Dead at his Home In cIarksvllIs.

Maj. Thos. F. Henry died suddenly in
this city Thursday, 25th, instant, at 8
p. m. OF heart disease, after only few
days illness. He was the eldest son oil
the late G.. A. Henry OF this place.
He was born in November 1885. He
graduated at the Lebanon law school
in 1859 and pracrced law in this city
until the war, when he enlisted in the
Confederate army, and became Aid de
Camp on Genl. B. F. Cheatham staff
At Resaca, Ga, during the absence OF
Genl. Cheatham, he had charge OF his
division when he was severely wounded.
He was promoted to Major and made
Inspector General on Cheatham's staff
for gallantry on this occasion. He was
shot from his horse at the Battle of
Franklin. After the war Maj Henry
practiced law in this city for two years
He was married in 1867 to Miss Louisa
M. Barker, daughter OF the late John
w. Barker OF this county, and for the
past fifteen years he has been following
agricultural pursuits. He leaves a
wife and two children to mourn his
death. His daughter, at the time OF his
death was visiting friends in Memphis,
and the sad news was telegraphed her
at that place.
Maj. Henry was man of warm and
generous impulses, and an ornament to
the circle in which he moved, and had
he chung to his profession he woll have
doubtless filled the place at the bar
made vacant by his fathers death. He
was gallant, courteous gentleman,
gifted as was his father with poetic
flow OF language.
His genial personaI qualities al led by
his literary culture assured him promi-
hence among the warm hearted people
of Tennessee.
Like all others who win and retain
through life the love OF their fellow men
his modest unassuming manner was the
most distinctive trait OF his character
He was loved by his companions in
arms as few men were ever loved, and
there is not an old soldier in the State
whose eyes will not. be tear-dimmed as
he reads the announcement that Ma, OF
Tom Henry is dead. He toll ,ws, in
death as in life, his old leader Gen
Frank Cheatham. True friends, gal
liant soldiers, peace to their sleep:
"On fame's eternal camping ground,
Their silent tents are spread;
And glory guards, with solemn round,
The bivouac Of our dead"
The funeral of Maj. T. F. Henry
will be preached in the Episcopal
Church, to-day Saturday at Il o'clock,
and tn remains will then be conveyed
to Greenwood Cemetery, the place o.
burial.
