COL. SMITH ACQUITTED.
A Former Mexico Man Found not
Guilty of Murder at Kan
a City.

Col. James F. Smith, formerfya
resident of Mexico, was acquitted
at Kansas City Saturday night of
the murder of Otto Drogmund
several months ago. The defense
made out a strong care, and their
witnesses who saw the fatal ARRAY
outnumbered those introduced by
the State and told, for the most
part, straightforward and exceed
ingly plausible stories. Despite
the conflicting nature of the testi-
mony introduced by the State and
defense the witnesses held to their
original stories and neither side
gained much by the rigid examina-
ton to which nearly every one
called to the stand was subjected.
The jury in the case decided
that Smith killed Drogmund in
defense of himself and family.

5000 Damages Wanted.

Mrs. Mary A. Jenkins brings
suit in the Circuit Court against
the Chicago & Alton railroad COM
pany for $1,000 damages for the
killing of her husband, whose
death plaintiffs petition sets forth,
was the result of carelessness on
the part of said company in the
moving of a certain freight train on
defective switches in a rock quarry
operated by the company near the
east line of Jackson County. The
petition states that deceased was
standing on a very high freigh car
which had no right in the train, in
the discharge of his duties; that
owing to the bad condition of the
switch, the rocking and jolting of
of the car was SO great as to throw
him from the train, when he was
caught beneath the wheels and
crushed to death, all through no
fault of his.

ANOTHER o R STORY.
MIR. E. D. Graham in the Same Box
With Mr.. Henry Woodward.

There are several persons in
Mexico who don't know their own
horses and E. D.. Graham is one
of them.
Mr.. B. B. Runkle is the owner
Of a black geleing which is almost
a match for an animal owned by
Mr.. Graham. These gentlemen
agreed Saturday afternoon to hitch
the horses together. Accordingly,
yesterday morning Mr.. Runkle
sent his colored stable man down
to Mr.. Grahaml's after the4Fhorse.
Mr.. Graham was not at home, but
the colored man went to the stable
and led the animal out. When he
got up town he met Mr.. Graham,
accompanied by Mr.. Will Coons,
and the following conversation be-
tween the gentlemen ensued:
"Billy," said Mr.. Graham,
"Bass Runkle thinks he has a
good horse. He even goes so far
as to say his gelding is as good as
mine. Here he comes; now, look
him over and tell me what you
think of him."
"All right" replied MI. Coons,
who at once recognized the horse
as Mr.. Graham's; "I'll tell you
what I think OF him. Bring him
up, G eorge(addressing the darkey).
Well, SIR" continued Mr.. Coons.
"that's a pretty good horse-a
dead match for yours, Dock,
think"
ga match for mine! Holy
smokel Why, he's spawned
knock-kneed, ring-boned, curbeo
why, he is simply no horse al
all by the side of mine -
The darkey had not heard the
first part of the conversation anC
when Mr.. Graham had finished
simply said:
!. "Why, sab, OATS a funny way te
talk bout yo' own hoss."
Mr.. Graham Immediately recog
nized his horse and, despite his eff
forts to keep the matter quiet, il
leaked out, and "Dock'' has had
big &c" painted on his horse sc
he can recognize him.

UNION PICK-UPs.

| Correspondence OF the Ledger.
UNION, No., May 8.-Farmers
are about done planting corn.
The recent rain~hhsass revived oats
and grass and all Vegetation gen,
orally.
Mr.. Austin Smith and Miss Mat
tie sullinger, of Mexico, spent the
evening with Miss Martinique last
Sunday.
Cut worms are playing havoc
with the corn that is up, in sod
land around here.
Wheat in this locality looks
splendid and bids fair for a good
crop. Oats are little backward on
account of the recent dry spelk
A Sunday school was organized
at this place last Sunday evening.
There was considerable interest
taken and we bespeak for them
much success. J. T. Byrns was
elected superintendent; Robt.
Byrns, assistant superintendent;
Miss Ida Green, secretary; Mamie
Throckmorton, treasurer. The
officers are all well fitted for their
duties, especially Mr.. J. T.
Byrns, the superintendent. He is
the right nan in the right place.
He was superintendent at this
place 8 years ago and conducted
one of the best Sunday schools in
the county. How well he is ap-
preciated was manifested last SUM-
day by the children and their
parents by electing him unan-
Iimously.
Wood Maddox has a colt by
Ayers Hambltonian, out a Rock
away mare, that fairly takes the
cake. We have heard several
competent horse judges pronounce
1t the best colt they ever saw.
Wood paid an even round 500 fol-
it before it was foaled and says il
will take an even $500 to get il
away from his farm. We believe
we can truthfully say that Audrair
is the banner county of Missouri
for fine horses.
We are glad to know Billy Nc.
Intire and Wood Maddox colts
wont come against each other a

the other o trotter.
