BUTLER, Mo-, Dee. 4.-United
States Marshal Willis, who had a
warrant for the arrest Of Pierce
Morgan, n mOonshiner, late last
night, met him on the street. Nor
gan declared he would not be taken
alive and drew a revolver and fired.
The bullet missed its mark, and
Willis whipped out his revolver and
both fired simultaneously. Both
bullets took effect. Willis was shot
through the heart and died instant
~. Morgan was shot in the stomach
and died this morning.
Another story Of the tragedy is
that it was the consummation Of 4
long-standing feud. Yesterday
Willis, while intoxicated, quarreled
with some Of MOrgan's friends, aud
was arrested by Morgan, who is city
marshal. Willis, upon being re-
leased, swore out n warrant for Nor
gan-s arrest, charging him with
ohstructing a Federal officer in his
duties. He went TO Mergan's house,
called him out and the shooting
followed.

SOUND AND WELL.

Referring TO the terrible priva-
lions through which they lived,
Stanley says: This is not due 30
me any more than t. the courage
with which they have borne all
that was imposed upon them by
their surroundings, or the CHEEKY
energy which they bestowed -
their work, or the hopeful voicrs
which rang in the ears Of the null
titude of blacks and urged the poor
souls on to their COL. The vuIgar
will call it luck, unbelievers will
call it chance, but deep down in
each heart remains the feeling
that Of a verify there are more
things in heaven and earth than aIg
dreamed Of in the common philO-
sophy.

LAND RULING.

Commissioner GrufI, Of the gene
raj land office, has rendered n deci-
sion in the case Of John Fleet, Chas.
DE Lacy and John Algyer VS.. the
Northern Pacific. Railroad Company,
involving n quarter section inear
Tacoma. Washington. The tract is
within the primary limits Of the
Northern Pacific grant. Fleet set
tied upon the lana under the pre-
emption laws in the spring Of 1863,
made the necessary Improvements,
and in the fall of 1870 went to the
local laud office and made final
proof, but the register refused to lis
ten to him, declaring the land be-
longed to the railway company.
Fleet left the land, and has not
since lived upon II. In 1SS5
Algyer moved upon the land
and built a house, hut has not
resided there since 1854. In 1856
De Lacy settled upon the land and
has since resided on it continuously,
and made valuable Improvements.
The Commissioner decision rein
states Fleet in his rights under the
act Of March 3rd, 1857, holding his
abandonment rs involuntary and
allows him to- complete his entry.
The Commissioner also holds that
neither Algyer nor DE Lacy eau
have any claim TO the land, for I'M
less Fleet is entitled to it, it must
insure to the railway company I'M
der its grant. The land is said TO
he worth 100000.

Family feuds, Illicit distillinS and
disregard of marriage ties have
woefulIy corrupted them. There is
monthly preaching in the best
churches, no prayer meetings and
only lately Sunday Schools. The
ministers are illiterate and often i'm
moral and drUnkards, but no people
ever responded more readily to mis-
sionary effort, and it would be to
our shame if il is not put forth.
]. NJ. Buckley, ID. D., of New
York. editor of the Christian AdaO-
cate. said one Of our needs is TO get
rid of the extravaganza and ostenta-
ton in church and private expendi-
ture. which often make the minister
a master of ceremonies in an exclu-
sive club. The next need is an i'm
movement in the methods ofattract-
ing the young. These are largely
social and intellectual and very lit
tie of the spiritual. Again, we need
TO depend less upon extraneous
evangelistic efforts on the hippo
drome plan. Sceptics of the pre-
sent are far mole hard to deal with
tran a generation since. Then,
there is development Of secret vice
among the sons of the rich, and \
growing liberation Of the nabit oil

bers.

posed Of or reserved before the
acceptance of this act by the
States and ratification by Con-
gress. Ii provides that these
lands shall be coded TO the States
and the eventual states in which
the lands lie, on condition that the
States shall convey not more than
so acres susceptible to remunerative
Irrigation to any one settler. IL the
State shall elect to sell the lands, the
proceeds shall lie used for the iriiga-
ton of such Of the lands as may be
made remuneratively productive.
If the land is given to settlers it is TO
be taxed and the proceeds applied to
irrigation purposes.
INFANTRY EFFICIENCY.
Senator Manderson introduced n

mendations Of the S cretary Of War

fantry Of the army. EACH regiment
