ANY man who has ever had any experience
In the newspaper business can testify as ia
the truth OF the following which we repro-
uuce from the Bonnie Terre Eegister:
isn't 1t little funny that no one ever kicks
ABOUT newspaper publishing a compi-
mentary notice of him, no matter how
much the editor has to strain the truth to dc
h' out tne moment he puts in print a par
agraph that reflects unfavorably, though il
may be true as gospel he is sure to ''get upon
MS ear" Funny isn't it:''
The Washington University students,
quartered at Peck's Hotel, have finished
their outdoor labors and are now busily en-
gagged completing their maps and drawings
lhnF expect to get through and depart fol
home about Saturday of this week. During
their stay we have met most of these young
men and we have found them all to be s
Jolly, manly set of fellows-just such as we
are at any time pleased to meet. They have
made many friends i'll the Valley who will a,
any lime III the future be happy to see them
The Iron Mountain trains will soon enter
The Union Depot, St. Louis, by new route.
Instead of running along the levee and up
the Poplar street-track, they will take the
| Carondelet and Oak Hill railroad at CarOn
deiet and run into the depot over that road.
The new route will be some three miles
longer than the one now used, but as it
does away with the change of engines at the
leyee Eand avoids the Poplar street grade,
the officials think they can make the trip in
less time Notwithstanding the increased
mileage.
AT the last term of circuit court Of Rey-
| nolds county, John Parker was tried for dis
| turbing the peace Of the family of W.T.Saw
yer. Mrs. Sawyer swOTe that, on the ocea-
sion In question, Parker, in loud and
angry manner, swore that he was 'foaled in
he'll, raised in Texas, was a hornets nest,
rode forked lightning, could whip his
weight in wildcats, was walking horse on
wheels, and could whip any ID man who
put those breeches on his horse" Surely,
brother Shriver, you raise peculiar animals
in old Reynolds.
The following, which we take from a late
Cape GirardeaI paper will he Of interest TO
our readers, rs the lady there mentioned, is
well known here, having frequently appeared
before the fOOtlights in our city: "The editor
Of the Ste. Genevieve Fair Play fell desper-
ately in love with Emma Warren while the
Emma Warren 1heater Company was in
Ste. Genevieye week or two ago, and last
week the Far Play contained a column and
a half of an interview with the iove-stricken
editor had with Mss Warren. There is an
old maxim that an old fool is the biggest
fool of all the fools.''
From private source we learn that an
Ironton boy is at present undergoing con-
inement-nOt in Jail, but as the result of
smallpox quarantine lately inaugurated in
the vicinity where he now resides. The
young man we refer to is DIR. F. NJ. Farrar
who writes home that they have two or three
Santa Fe Railway Hospital where he is
located and the civ authort les of Las Vegas
have established quarantine between the
town and the hos pital and no cOmmunlca
ton whatever is allowed between the two
places. Fortunately, though, the smallpox
is of a mild type and it is quite likely that it
will not be necessary 20 keep up the present |
regulations for any length of time.

URSULJNE SISTERS.
Mr.. Jno. Blemel desires us inform the |
public that, during the summer season, he |
will have Ice Cream on sale at his Bakery |
on Thursday and Sunday of each week.
This in response to the demands of the young
ladies of the Valley that they mast have
cream one day in the week other than Sum
day. Some one has maliciously said that |
the boys are endeavoring TO go the maidenS
one better by buying Mr.. Blemel off and in
ducing him to go out of the Ice Cream BUSH
ness altogether, but we are authorized to
state that this report is wholly without
foundation and is entitled to no credence
whatever. In the meantime bear in mind |
Mr.. b. makes the best ice cream TO be had
in the Southeast and it will be Oh sale the
two days of the week afore manned.
