Alex. Harrison, the genial Superintendent

Mo-, is said to have originally cost $10,O 900.
A large store containing a well-assorted
stock of general merchandise is owned by
the same company. During 1888 they sold
goods to the amount of $1S,500.
The company owns a Large tract of land
and as the greater part of it is fit for graz
ing and much of it is arabic, they concluded
to try embarrassing in connection with their
mining operations. They have now about
1000 acres under fence, 100 acres in grass, 20
acres in corn, 1900 acres in woods pasture
They haye IL head of olled-Augus cattle,

The cattel-shed, built by Mr.. Jas. Yount,
is 80 feet wide and 100 feet in length. 1t is
fitted up with stauchions, steamers and
crushers, and feed-cutter operated by II

The town of Palmer contains large Store
house, Ware houses, Blacksmith and Car

Ia loving remembrance of MARGUERITE
f.. BAIRD, daughter of James and Luoit
Baird, died at Senate, Mo-, Wednesday, May
80, 1889, at 7:30 a. NJ, aged 3 years and 2;
days.
We miss thee from our home little Maggie,
We miss thee from thy place;
a shaCow DER our life is cast:
We miss the sunshine of thy face,
There is no death; the stars go down
To rise upon some fairer shore;
And bright in heavens ieweled crown
They shine forever more.
There is no death. An angel form
Walks DER the earth with silent tread;
He bears our best loved things away,
And thea we call them ::dead.'
He leaves our our hearts all desolate,
He plucks our fairest, sweetest flowers;
Transpanted into bliss they now
Adorn immortal bowers.
The bird like voice whose joyous tones
Made glad these scenes OF sin and strife,
Sings now an everlasting song
Amid the tree of life.
And where he sees a smile too bright,
Or hearts too pure for faint or vice,
He bears it to that world of light
To dwell in paradise.
And ever near us, though unseen,
The dear immQftal spirits tre.d
For all the boundless universe
Is llfe-there are no dead.

To the Bereaved Parents of Mr.. and
Mis-. Baird.

Weep not for Maggie!
She Is gone in the spring time of life.
Ere here sky had been dim med hy cloud,
While her heart with rapture of love was ye
young,
And the hopes of childhood unbowed.
The spring will return,
But the flowers that bloom in our presence
now,
The sweetest, the loveliest of all,
The music of stream and of bird shall come
back, when the winter Is over.
But little Maggie's voice that was so dear to
Shall be heard in your desolate chambers no
more,
And the light of her bright blue eyes hath
departed forever.
The Hraside shows = vacant chair
Here sadness dwells, and weeps alone,
And death displays his banner there.
The life has gone the breath has fed,
And what has been no more shall be.
You miss her voice and welcome tread
Oh! where is Maggie? she
Is an angel now, treading the sapphire floor
of paradise.
Weep not for her; her memory is the shrine
OF pleasant thoughts, soft as the scent OF
flowers.
So, when few, fleet, swerviug years have
flown
She will meet you at heavens gate and lead
you on. MRS. A. B. Nc.

ular attendant upon the quarter stretch
at the race track this week, vet he is
recognized by only a very fsw as the
one time redoutable bandit and train
robber, Frank James, the last of a gang
which held the banks and express COM
panies of the entire West in a state of
terrorism for 20 years. Frank James
always had weakness for horsefiesh.
In the very heyday of his desperate
crimes he would risk bis life to come
out of the bush and attend horse race.
When he was in hiding near Nashville,
after the Gallatin robbery, he owned
several race horses which be sent to
the st. Louis races at Cote Briliiante
Track, under an assumed name, OF
course. He is now q clerk in Dallas
shoe store, but as q matter of fact he
does little else but follow the races.
His Judgment is good, and he comes
from Memphis, Nashville, Louisville
and Latonia considerably ahead OF the
horses. thus far.-StGr-Sdyings.

Milton A. Mcdaniel, alias "Sleek
Tobe," who broke Jail in Texas county
some Is months ago, while under sen-
tence of death for murder, and whose
recapture was noticed in our columns
last week. was brought before Judge
Bland on Friday, May oath, and re-sen-
fenced to be hung on Friday, July 9TH.
The next Saturday evening, about half
past eight O'Clock, he escaped from the
Jail, going out at the same hole he
slipped through a year and a half ago.
Gross carelessness and outside assist
ance are both talked of in Houston as
the possible cause.

John Henry Orrick, confined Ia the
Greenville Jail, made his escape last
Friday. He succeeded in saving his
cell door from its hinges and then
forced an opening through the roof
and escaped, taking another prisoner
with him. Orrick was confined for
murder committed at Gad's Hill in
January, 1888. He was arrested by
the police in Carondelet last June
with woman in male attire. Last
Sunday week bis brother, Louis, was
killed near Piedmont while resisting
arrest. This affected Henry very
much and he resolved to escape at all
hazards. He was seen last Friday st
sun-up five miles east of Greenville,
travelling rapidly on foot northward.
Sheriff Johnson organised posse at
Piedmont and is now securing the
the country for Orrick. A daughter
of Orriok is now being held at Pied
mont under arrest, charged with bur-
glary.

The superstition that Friday is an
unlucky day has been given additional
strength in the minds of those who
have subscribed to the ancient myth,
by the fact that the great Pennsyl-
vania horror occurred on that day,
Thousands of dread visitations of fire
and flood have occurred OH other days
of the week; but it just happens that
Friday comes in often enough with its
tale of woe to keep up Its uncanny name
of black Friday. There have been sever
al instances of blue Monday, but Tues
day, Wednesday, Thursday, Saturday.
and Sunday have never been brought
into disrepute, although a careful
search of the records will find that they
have witnessed as much woe as unfort-
innate Friday.

Man to command and woman to obey
All else confusion. Look you! the gray mare
Is i'll to live with, when her whinny shrllls
From tile to scullery,and her small goodman
Shrinks in his arm chair"
This may be good poetry but poor
sense. It is the unfair criticism of those
who wish to impede the march of the
woman's cause. But all the jealous
carpings of barbarous men will no,
avail. "The sands of life are shifting
every year." and the morning starofour
cause grows brighter, heralding the
day when woman shall be where she
ought to be, free, with the ballot of free
men in her hand, In spite of those who
honor the negroes and foreigners to her
detriment. He who makes darkness
his pavilion has ordered it. So let it be.

Our exchanges are mistaken in sup.
posing that Poplar Bluff desires to
be classed as a health resort. That
idea originated in an article written by
orr worthy contemporary, who stated
in the next issue of his paper, that he
was on the eve of starting on health
tour to New York. 1t simply illus
trates Bro. Hoag's humorous style.
and should not be seriously construed
or commented upon, We do maintain,
however, that Poplar Bluff is as
healthy as any of her sister towns,

average locality west of Mississippi
