MOrgan's Mines.

Messrs. Grey Il Smith, who have
recently opened new lead mine near
Florence, in Morgan county, report
they have struck some of the finest
deposits ever found. They already
have a number of fine specimens
which they will exhibit at the coming
State fair, and which they feel conf
dent will carry off the palm for the
finest ever produced. They say the
excitement is running high in that
locality, and it is being confidently
asserted that Morgan county will
take the lead for this mineral. If
she does, however, she will have to
hump herself as the fair association
already have assurance that Joplin,

their utmost to place their respective
localities in the front rank.

A Team COllides With the Car.
Near Georgetown, and a
Young Lady Is Prob
ably Killed.

From r. T. Gentry, ESQ.,, who was
a passenger on the west bound Lex.
ington branch train yesterday after.
noon and who returned last night, a
BAzoo reporter learned the partial
particulars of an accident resulting In
the probable death Of a young lady
and the serious injury of two other
parties.
AS the train was approaching the
first crossing this side of GEORGETOWN,
a man by the name of Daniels, &C.
companied by his wife and his sistsH
in-law, Miss Smith, attempted
cross the track in e farm wagon. The
driver miscalculated the speed of the
train and the engine struck the rear
end of the wagon, hurting the occu-
pants violently to the ground. The
team dashed off in a reckless manner
through the woods and soon disap-
peared to view. The train was stopped
and the unfortunate people were
picked up, Miss Smith, it is thought,
in a dying condition, Mr.. Daniels
badly mangled, and his wife quite
seriously injured. They were placed
aboard the train and conveyed to
Houstonia, where medical aid was i'm
summoned. The exact ex-
tent of their injuries could not, OF
course, be obtained by the BAzoo's
informant

A woman with an infant in her
arms yesterday applied to Officer
Kelly for aid, stating that in com.
PAW with her husband and several
children, they had started from Maria
county, Ind, for the west that their
team was just outside of the city linn
its; that her husband was very sick
and they were actually destitute.
The officer regretted his inability to
assist the unfortunate family, stating
that the poor of the city required all
the means that could possibly be
raised for that purpose. He had nu-
merous appeals for aid, to which,
however much he might desire to re-
spond, he could not on account of the
fund for that purpose being always ex.
hausted.

THE MULLINS MURDER.
The Body Exhumed and the
Wounds Examined by
the Court.

Coroner Overstreet, accompanied
by DIR. Schilling, yesterday went to
Hughesville to exhume the body of
Henry Thatcher, who was killed last
week, as is generally supposed, by
Thos. Mullens.
The object of the examination was
to establish the correctness Of certain
testimony as to the character of GER
tain wounds, and ascertain if any of
them were of a nature to cause instant
death, and if so how many, this being
regarded as important in establishing
the assertion that he had, after being
shot, ran some sixty yards.
THE BODY,
when exhumed, showed that decom-
position had already ser in to an ex-
tent, rendering it impossible to state
definitely to what extent the flesh had
been burned about the neck where
what is presume to be the last shot,
entered. 1t was found. however, that
the ball had passed directly through
the spinal column, severing it COM
pletely. The wound in the breast had
penetrated the lower portion
of the heart and the physicians were
positively certain the deceased could
not have lived long enough to run
sixty yards after receiving either one
Of the wounds. The two wounds in
his body we're of a severe and neces-
sarily mortal nature, though it would
have been possible, but not probable,
for a man to have gone that distance
after receiving them. There are many
persons who express the opinion that
the man was murdered premeditated-
ly and no little feeling is created over
II.

Too Heavily Loaded,

The two story barn of Mr.. George
Crawford, near Hughesville, collapsed
rather suddenly, Tuesday morning,
the weight of the grain on the
second floor of the building, causing
it to give away. A horse in the barn
was quite severely injured by the fall
of the heavy materia, on the second
floor, but was rescued in time to pre-
vent it sufocating, and will probably
recover in time from the injuries sus-
tanned. A young, colt almost sub
merged in a shower of oats, made a
flying leap through the obstruction
and escaped unscratched.
Mr.. Crawford is the democratic
nominee for the Legislature, in the
Western district.

Pests of the Kitchen.

A band OF confidence operators has beer
let loose in this city vicinity to prey upon
and annoy our housekeepers. The band j.
composed OF women, although employed
and directed by an agent of the other sex
and their method of procedure, as explain
ed BY several ladies who have been vic
timized, is as follows; Obtaining aces:
to the kitchen, they introduce the subject
of baking powders, inquiriDg the kind
used in the family. Being shown the can
perhaps fresh, full one, they volunteer
to "test" it to ascertain Its qualities. Their
"test" consists in placing the can on hot
stove or over a lamp or gas jet, or in mix
ing the baking powder with water both hot
and cold. If the baking powder is good
for anything the heat will, OF course, ex-
pei the gas, which, being ammOniacal, OF
carbonic, is apparent to the sense OF smell
The claim is then made that this odor in
dictates something detrimental, although
as a matter of fact, baking powder that
to heat would be without leavening
power and valueless. They will. also mix
the baking powder given them with water.
If pure it efervesces quickly. The baking
powder the peddle being similarly mixed
loans up slowly. This they claim as evil
dence of superiority, whereas it is the ex.
hibition of trick only, as the effect is
caused by the presence of -four in the
baking powder they are peddling. OF
course the object of these fraudulent tricks
is to destroy confidence in all other kinds
of baking powder, and to sell the partic-
ular brand for which the women are trav-
cling.
Were this the whole of the operation,
housekeepers would not often be deceived.
Every intelligent person knows that bak-
ing powder is not made to be used in that
way, but in cooking where its action Is en-
tirely different from that produced by
dry heat or by mixture with water alone
The chief object of this jugg.ery is to de-
stroy the baking powder given for testing !;
or by heating it to drive off its leavening
gas and 50 weakens it that when used it
will fail to work. At the next baking
there Is heavy food, of course, and the
tramp" probably gets the credit of hav-
ing told the housekeeper a valuable fact,
instead of having spoiled her baking pow
der, as was actually the case. The aver
age "tramp" will, in this way, destroy
from fifty to seyenty-five pounds of hak-
ing powder day.
A second method of spelling for use the
baking powder in kitchen where they are
not permitted to experiment with il, is by
dextrousiy throwing in the can a small
quantity of salt, soda or powdered lime.
Again, should there chance to be no bak-
ing powder In the house the operators.w
produce, of the kind used by the family, a
sample that has been purposely adulter-
ated or "doctored" to make such an ex-
hibit as they desire under the so-called
test.
The only way to protect our food from
being contaminated BY tramps of this
kind is to turn all persons who wish Or
attempt to tamper with it unceremoniously
from the door, and to use those articles
only which experience has proved salts
factory, or the official tests have estab-
lished as pure and wholesome.

esTHE STARS OF HEAVEN -
Smith. the Notorious Crank,
Has Grand FiaScO
at Holden.

Charles G. Smith, the founder and
grand mogue of the order of the "Stars
of Heaven" who was recently in Jail,
ard who is now under indictment for
swindling a number of eredulous in
dividuals, attempted to lecture at
Holden Tuesday night.
From gentleman of this city, who
was present, BAzoo reporter learned
that the great crank made a financial
success out of his effort, but succeed
ed in deeply disgusting a very large
audience. At an early hour in the
evening small boy was sent with a
bell through the principal streets of the
announcing that ''The Great Star of
Heaven" was about to hold forth at a
certain hall. An audience of about
500 people assembled to hear what
the windy crank had to say, but he
was neither instructive or amusing,
and after listening to his insane NUT
terings for short time a gentleman
arose and proceeded towards the door.
This was the signal for a general exit,
and ''t"e great apostle" in very few
moments was left with an audience of
empty benches. Doubtless, however,
he was satisfied, as he realized a very
neat sum from the sale of tickets.
This rascally crank ought to be
muzzled, but if people persist in en-
couraging him by paying their money
to see him and listen to his idiotic
mutterings he will doubtless continue
to flourish.

Important Interests.

As is probably well known, a com
pany has teen formed in this city for
the purpose of developing vast coal
resources, which there is little reason
to doubt exist near this city. The
company should be encouraged in this
effort by all progressive citizens, and
all having the best interests of Sc.
dalia at heart
IF these coal fields, which experts
have given it as their opinion, are
more than usually promising are
properly worked T; if sufficient interest
is taken in the matter by intelligent,
energetic men if the capital neces-
sary to proper prosecution of the
enterprise can be secured, and the
work vigorously pushed, then the
Queen City will kave a bigger boom
than she has enjoyed for years.
Other cities with not near the ad-
vantagss of Sedalia are developing
their mining interests, not only with
great profit to those Immediately inter.
ested, but causing a decided boom
wherever. they are pushed. The
BAzoo does not for a moment wish to
be understood as advocating any wild
cat mining, schemes, but in the case of
the Sedaia company, there seems to
be not only the shadow but the sub
stauce,
The development of Sedalia coal
fields will give employment to a large
number of men and put in circulation
q vast amount of money. By all
means let the enterprise be pushed
vigorously.
