The BAzoo acknowledges the re-
ceipt from the secretary of the interior
of copy of his report for the fiscal
year ending June 80, 1889. The first
annual report made by any secretary
chronicles and discusses chiefly, as a
rule, those acts performed under the
direction of his predecessor; but in
addition to this labor Secretary Noble
records several very important events
that have taken place in his depart
ment during the present administra-
ton. Some of these have been con-
sumated since the termination of the
last fiscal year; but nevertheless it
was deemed proper to recount their
progress up to the time of this report.
Attention is first called to these as
they successfully occurred The
opening of Oklahoma the successful
negotiation of a treaty with the Sioux
Indians of Dakota, and the advent
into the Union of the four new states,
North Dakota, South Dakota, Wash
ington and Montana, none having
entered previously fer thirteen years.
The report makes volume of nearly
two hundred pages and is interesting
reading.

Used to Own.

The papers in suit for SO, 900
damages were fled in the Office of the
circuit clerk this morning, having
just been received from Kansas CITY.
They are sent to this court on a
change of venue. The plaintiffs in
the petition are Sallie w. Will, a
dressmaker o. Kansas City, and her
husband, the defendanG being the
City Cable Railway company.
Mrs. Will states that she was a
passenger on one of the cars
of the railway company. and in trav-
cling down an incline on that CON-

carelessness of the servants of the
company, suddenly thrown from her
seat, and her right thumb bruised and
mashed, so that it was necessary TO
ampuiate that useful member. She
asks for damages in the sum of 10000,
and for any other relief the court may
grant. The attorneys for the plaintiffs
are Messrs. Adams, Bucker and Sc

About nine O'Clock last evening Officers
Joseph Gossage and Bledso arrested q man
and woman in northeast Sedalia near the
WOODEN mill, under conspicuous circum-
stances. They we're brought to the station
and the man, who gave his name as John
Harrod gave bond in the sum of 500 for
his appearance this morning, and for that
of the woman, whose name is down on the
slate as Rosa Dunn. In the police court
this morning Harrod wanted to plead
"not guilty" for both himself and the
woman, the charge docketed against them
being late hours, etc. The female defend
ant was not present in court, and the pros
ecuter earnestly protested against Harrod
attempted action for Rose. He said
it was not right, not according to law and
the WON an must be in court the same as
any other lesser or greater offender
against the law and ordinance.
Judge Brady supported the same
view, and decided that she must be present
in court for her own self and in propria
persona.
Harrod then entered a plea of not
guilty and was released on his own per-
sonal recognizance to appear tomorrow
morning for trial. The woman will also
be brought up for examination at the same
time.
Harrod is said TO be q railroad man,
but he seems to be a stranger to the court
officials and the police. The Dunn woman
is unknown likewise. 1t is highly prob
able that the names they gave are fictitious

A frighfful Fall.

This afternoon about half past one
O'Clock, while two linemen named
VIM. Atkinson and Will OHara,
were at their work on the poles in the
Ilgenfritz alley, between Ohio and
Usage and Third and Fourth streets,
the former lost his grip on one of the
poles and tumbled to the ground, first
alightiDg in his descent on a shed root
and thence bounding off to the ground.
He fell upon his left shoulder, and
when his companion and
others who hurrird to the scene,
picked him up, he twas unconscious.
A hasty examination disclosed that no
bones were broken, the only hurt ap-
parently being a scratch alongside
his left.eye DIR. Muhl, who made
the examination, returned to his office
for remedies and while he
was gone stretc Ter was
procured, and the injured M n was
carried to his home al Cos West Main
street. DIR. Crawford was summoned
and this physician, on his arrival a
Atkinson's house, applied the restora
tives. Atkinson was shortly aroused,
and the doctor examined him care
fully, finding no bones broken. 1t
is thought, however, that some
internal injuries may have been
sustained. When Atkinson first re-
newed consciousness at his home he

his mouth.
Shortly after he had been taken

Crawford turned the case over to
him.
Atkinson will doubtless be
all right in a few days. 1t is said
that the fall was occasioned by the
spur, attached to his boot, by which
linemen ascend and decend the poles
in their repairing, failing to catch in
the wood as he was climbing. Before
he could recover himself, he COM
menced to fall and couldent save him.

AN AGED DARBY
Who Passes Way Just Before
Dinner.

At rude frame dwelling just north OF
the gas works at half past eleven O'Clock
this morning an old negress, named Tilda
Boone, died with nobody at hand to note
the passing away. Tilda was 50 years old
and had been in Sedalia about year. She
came here from Fayette. She was feeble
from rheumatism ana paralysis, and
her own children did nothing
for her. One of these is
George Bimm, a shoemaker on Main
street, and the other is Fannie Boone,
now in KansTs City, who cast the old lady
of long ago, Lbecause it interfered with
her business as q woman of questionable
practices.
The old lady Boone has been a charge
on the county and last July she took up
her abode, at the house first indicated,
with Mrs. Patsy Williams, who was merely
friend and human. Mrs. Boone
has been confined to her bed-a rude and
rickety affair in the 5sckroom OF
Mrs. Williams cottage-for some, time, and
her death was mercy, not only to herself
but also to those who befriended her.
She will be buried by the city, the coun-
ty furnishing the coffin. No inquest will
be held, as she died from known natural
causes.

The postofice inspector as a general
thing travels incogniIo, and prefers that
his movements from place 10 place be not
chronicled with much particularly. So
the presence of Col NJ. I. Sullivan, one of
these ubiquitous officials of the govern
ment in Sedslia has not been known to
any extent to any except parties most
directly concerned in postal affairs.
The BAzeo called on him last
night at Sicher's and was accorded an
audience which was very brief, and re-
suited in the Inspector politely but firmly
refusing to sdivulge anything in regard
to his mission to Sedalia, except that it
was on official business, and that he was
making investigations in the line of his
duty.
The BAzoo has been furnished a state

ploye of the Fpost-ofice which explains

Mr.. Harris made 1t to the news

Mr.. Harris was assistant mailing clerk
in the postofhce from September, 1888, TO
February OF the present year, when he
was promoted 10 the position of mailing
clerk, at salary of $50 per month. He
worked until August when he and the
delivery clerk, Glenn Reed, had been raised
to $50 per month each to date from the
first of July. When he was paid In Sept
ember, however, he got at the rate of $500
a year instead of 5000, as he had expected
he would.
On the first of October, instead
OF getting his back pay equivalent to $50.
he was notified that he would have to lose
the SIS, over and above his salary, this
some and a similar amount from Reed,
being deducted to pay the helper to the
mailing desk. Harris objected to pay the
assistants wages out of his salary, and so
did Reed. Harris finally consented to
take the $50, signed the payroll under the
impression that ii was for this amount
he had placed his name on
the sheet. He learned afterward, he says.
that the figures covered the Sl5 of back
pay. ne believed and believes yet, he was
entitled to. The postmaster during the
day, little before noon, came TO Harris
and after asking the latter if be had signed
the pay roll, told him to quit. Harris
asked why he was discharged, and Mr.
Russell refused TO tell him.
Harris afterwards received information
rom reliable sources that the postmaster
had expressed himself as being
IN doubt as to his right to
hold back the salary. Harris consulted
an attorney and then wrote on to Washing
on, laying his case before the proper au-
hOrities there. To investigate the matter

Bridges Pulaue Proof
The Kansas Times editorially say

The Kansas Times ediforialIy says:
Washington dispatches announce that
the appointment of Captain l.. L. Bridges
of Sedalia to be consul general to Mexico
has been definitely determined. The
appointment is, we think, a safe one.
Captain Bridges passed winter in Jeffer-
son City during those nightless days when
Sedalis was desperately but inedect-
uslly trying to move the capitol from the
big bluff overlooking the Missouri to the
rolling prairies of Pettus county, and it
is reasonable to presume, therefore, that
he is pulque proof.

Late last evening, A. w. Leske, the
miiliner, GOA Ohio street, made an assign
ment of his property for the benefit of his
creditors, to j. r. Cloptou, public ad-
mipistrator of this county. Mr.. Clopton
gave bond in the sum of $4,000 with J. P.
Leake, father of the sssignor, and Judge
u. F. Bailey as sureties. The liabilities are
estimated at $1,000, with assets of about
$1,000.
The cause of the assignment is said to
be an oyerstock of millinery goods, bought
by Mr.. Leake, and limited demand for
them, in this vicinity, just at present. The
principal creditors are Chicago parties.
