Ed. Register -Warren's Store has been
well represented in your paper for two weeks
past by Mr.. "Fox" and "Roving jack" who
gave you the religious, financial and political
progress of our neighborhood, and / deem
it unnecessary to add anything further, as
there has been hut very little change in re-
gard to these important matters since then.
notice also that they have given you an out
line of the teachers who started out from
our little Black River Schoolhouse, and the
different places where they are employed
the present year. But one item [ wish to
call your especial attention to: the assertion
made by "Roying Jacka in regard to the
swindle and cheat practiced on the Imboden
Fork District last year. Now, admitting
this assertion to be true, 1t does seem to me
that the school law of the State Of Missouri
Is sufficient, if this matter was properly seen
into, to bring the swindlers and cheats to
justice, and the money recovered to the dis
trict. The directors are certainly the princi-
pal ones to blame in this matter. But, adj
uniting the assertion not TO be true, cQnsid-
er it gross insult to the teacher and board
of directors in charge last year. was the

man who taught the Imboden Fork school
last year, term of four months, and each
order was properly signed by the board and
paid by our county treasurer; that the school
was taught in creditable manner, and no
one debarred from sending to the school. II
! any persons were cheated out of their mon
| ey, it was their own fault, and not the fault
of the teacher or board of directors. This
said school. also had the refusal of the
same school this year. 1t does seem to me
that if was SO notorious a character, this
privilege would not have been granted me.
Besides, have had the offer of other schools
in adjacent neighborhoods.
Now. / want the readers of this paper and
citizens of this community to know that say
and am able to substantiate the fact that
''Roving Jack" is notorious, viilainous,
cowardly, lying scoundrel!
/ don't know that / can command quite as
much dog-Latin as he starts his letter off
with, but hope to use plain English suffi-
cient that he may understand that 1 know
that he is falsifier, and 1 don't propose to
hide behind fictitious name to tell him so.
Just what kin "Roving" and 'sRolling Jackn
are l am unable to state; probably twin
brothers, from the tenor of their writings.
"Rolling Jack" in his earlier communica-
lions to your paper, made an effort to stig-
Matte the character of our Sabbath school
by proposing set of officers who he knew
were deyoid of educational advantages, and
which would unfit them for the position
using the name of one of our most respecta-
bic citizens; and either of the other two
could establish character that would be
credit to him. This "Roying Jack' we be-
lieve to be the old "Rolling Jack" last men,
toned. Else the difference occurring in the
two names is owing to mistake in orthog-
raphy, but that could not be possible, as we
are bound to admit that he is a learned man
from the starting off of his epistie, and that
he certainly knew how to spell that word.
"Rolling jack" or Growing jack" is I'M
known to the respectable part Of this COM
munity, but that he dwells here somewhere
in the Black River region is an established
opinion, and he certainly must be one of
those characters spoken of in the Bible as a
wolf in sleeps clothing, and if this letter
fails to bring him from his lurking place
and divest him of his woolly coat, and bring
him out to the public in his wolfish suit and
shown to the people his hypocritical gar
ment that he has been hiding behind to chew
his venom and spit his SANDER upon worthy
characters,I shall take it for granted that his
powers of resentment are harder to arouse
than his olfactory nerves. If the gentleman
thinks that have left out incidents worthy
of note in describing his character, 1 would
like to see him personally, and if he will
face me probably can tell him more than
have written. j. w. MCNAIL,

Having had several samples of Brandy

send you the results Of my investigation
Ny attention was attracted chiefly to tho
obnoxious odor arising from the same
which gave rise to an opinion that it was
due more or less to the escape OF beverage
into our drinking water. but upon further
investigation and the cause a different
oae.
simple glance through powerful mi
croecope at once convinced me that 1t was
OF vegetable origin and consequently the
same could be sasily traced. For a simple
understanding of how this odor is devel-
opsd, refer you TO the following Let a

water any time over As hours during

aminsd a disagreeable odor will be noticed
and also rlimy collection In the water

green particles floating around the glass.
This Is Just the condition OF our Brandy

The bottom Of the stream Is covered with
aquatic plants,l principally a species OF
moss. This Emoss devslopes during June

lated mesh work filled 10 with colorless
nbres, interspersed with little spherical cells
filled with chlorophyl, the green coloring
matter, and others with transparent sub
stance having the odor OF decayed leaves
SO far as this composition is concerned 1t
contains nothing harmful to human life
while the plant is IN the living state. But
this plant, lunder. the influence OF heat IA
killed, and then 1t becomes the source OF
considerable trouble.
The low water In the Brandywine has
exposed vast quantities OF this plant and

There is where the trouble arises. it's In the
