man who so valorously fought her case
before the courts of law against the late
senator Sharon. Father O'Connor, of
st. Mary's Church, performed the cere-
mony. The only person present was
the groomsman, Miss Hill having de-
clded to dispense with the bridesmaids.

aIloW any reporters to be present. The
license gave the brides name as Sarah
Althea Hill.Sharon; her age as 80.

performed, after which the bridal party
drove TO Terry's residence, where the
wedding breakfast had been prepared.

The Boycott.

ST. LOUIS. January John Eggler
proprietor of Helms Hall and saloon
is the victim of boycott, instituted
against him by thesKnights of Labor,
and unless he can prevail upon the
Knights to withdraw the boycotting
order he will have to withdraw from
business. Eggler can get no one to rent
his hall, can get few to patronize his bar
and can get nobody to sell over his
counter, even if he had customers to
consume it. Eggler refused to let st.
Louis street car drivers have his hallfol
a ball just after the dynamite fiends
tried to blow up several street cars
loaded with women and children. As
some of the dynamiters were on the bal
committee Eggler thought the ball was
not deserving of patronage.

Notwithstanding the strenuous eff
forts of the editor of the Mexico In
teHigencer in that direction, we don't
think he will be able to get up a our
rel between the Democrats of Pike
and those of Audrain county. The
friendly relation between the two
counties has existed too long to be
disturbed by anything Brother Cook
has said heretofore or may say here
after. He is a very nice man, but he
can scarcely be called an old settler
in Audrain, and our people have
some doubts about his sole and un-
qualified authority to speak for the
Democracy Of that county.
That his frequent filings at Pike
county are prompted by some mo-
tive which cannot, for a moment, be
doubted, because intelligent men like
he, given to looking below the sur
face and studying the relation be-
tween cause and effect, don't waste
their time and talents writing half
column editorials without any mo-
tive but as to what his motive is in
this particular instance. we have no
positive knowledge and cannot posi-
lively say.
However, we have heard it sug-
gested that while he is ostensibly in
favor of re-electing Col. Hutton to
congress, he is in reality in the SER
vice of another candidate for that
position and that these efforts to
create bad blood between Pike and
Audrain, are simply part of the pro-
gramme for the management of the
ensuing congressional campaign.
We have a kindly feeling for the
editor of the htelligepcer and are
slow to believe in the truth of this
suggestion, but as the Democracy of
Pike have neve done him the slight
est injustice and he cannot therefore
have any personal grievance to
prompt him in the matter, we feel
compelled to guess at his motive up
on some other theory.

went expecting to get II chance to
sell a coffin. Mrs. Lott has had very
much trouble. She is a most excel
lent lady, but has stood all she could
aud on this occasion lost her temper,
for which she Is excusable. The
sheriff, in the line of his duty, went
INTO the parIor to levy on the furni-
ture. Mrs. Lott pulled a pistol.
Sheriff Atchison got out. There is
Il difference of opinion rs to whether
he went u of the door, up the iue,
out of a window, through the floor
or through u crack in the weather
boarding. Any way, the first man he
saw when he got out vas Ira Tincher,
who asked him for his measure and
was figuring on whether the sheriff
should be buried in a walnut coffin
or in a pine box. After the weather
got cooler the sheriff attended to his
business and Mrs. Lott has written a
very polite note expressing her sor-
row because she gave vent to her
feelings. The sheriff and Tincher
are being joked by their friends.
