>. n. Bishop, ESQ.,, accompanied bv
number of sympathizing relatives-presen
and prospective-wentt to st. Louis yester
DAY. What they went for is not for us Il
say prematurely. Their object is not t.
paint the town a red color. This we know
Tor oroaon is his favorite. tCling! ClingD
We have on the table before us a couple
| OF specimens OF ore which strongly indicate
the presence of lead, and perhaps Of silver
TOO. We are no mineralogist, but those who
DO know say the mineral is good, and tina,
there is doubtless rich vein of ore near
"here 1t was procured. The specimens are
from the farm of III. N. Hutchins, Esq, one
mile and half south of Ironton on the
Fredericktown road.
Inc Autumn Festival for the benefit of the
Catholic church at Pilot Knob at the Acade-
my OF Music Iext Monday night will be one
of the pleasantest events of the season,
and we have no doubt but that the usual
large concourse of pleasure seeking individ-
uals, who know so we'll the many pleasures
invariably afforded on occasions presided
over by the ladies who have them in hand,
will be in attendance.
One O'Kelly committed robbery at An
napolis Monday particulars not known
here), and Constable Patton was telegraphed
to look out for him. Sure enough, Patton
or oh hiS
him in Jail. O'kelly had revolver on his
person when arrested, but didn't try to use
1t. He had come up on the ''local," and
came down street, where he caught the con-
stables eye. His description had been
wired here, and it was correct enough to
cause his apprehension.
The Bonanza man has just received one of
to Ironton. His "new cure" uncanvassed
Whitaker Star Hams are beyond compare
in every way. They are fresh cured and not
killed with salt, but as sweet and toothsome
a bite as ever melted in your mouth. The
Breakfast Bacon (from the same house, is
excellent and contains bigger streaks of lean
aud thinner streaks of fat than any you ever
saw, while the Pure Leaf Lard is just what
is claimed for it. Try his specialty-Whit-
takers Boneless Ham-if you want to make
existence a delight.
Jim Pressnell went down to the A. V. mill
and raised rookery with Geo. Mcfarland,
a relative. after few words, calling him a |
- lying - -, and striking at him.
Mcfarland returned the blow and then |
clinched and threw him down and was pro-
ceeding to make it "summer- time" for the |
latter gentleman, when Jim cried, "enough! |
take him offv' Mac then let up but had a |
issued for his assailant. The trial |
came off yesterday afternoon, and Pressnell |
was found guilty of disturbing the peace
and fined $3.50 and costs and six months in
just 80 minutes stay of execu-
ton. Jim made mighty good use Of that |
half hour. He shook the dust of the town
from his feet, and skipped to greener lands
and pastures new.
A terrible accident, which did not happen
,ook place at the residence of Capt Zwart on
morning last-at least that is the
way the Capt. states it-and it occurred as
olows: Mrs. and Mr.. Zwart were in the
sitting room of their home, just after break
asst, the Captain preparing to go to his office,
md Mrs. Zwart occupying chair near the
ire place in the room. For some reason,
which she is unable to explain, she got up
rom her chair and crossed the room, but
afterward sat down in another
hair, some little distance from her former
eat. She had just sat down when a great
portion OF the heavy plaster from the ceiling
oil and titorallv hrriod ho fret chair |
bed by her, not two minutes previous, and
which would have crushed the life out of
Ter, without doubt, had she remained. We
Mrs. Zwart andi her family in
his fortunate and most unaccountable escape
rom almost certain deatb-or at least from
,eing made a cripple for life. A miss is as
rood rs mile, but we believe Mrs. Zwart
would prefer the mile. The Captain is on
he lookout for a carpenter: boards, instead
If plastering, will be the ceiling of that room
hereafter.
