Reunited with His Wife.

George w. Beavers arrived at Ne.
vada day or two ago in search of
wife, who had deserted him at Bur-
lington, Kas., taking their 2-year-old
child with her. She was found there
with friends she had known in Indi-

brought about a meeting between the
estranged couple, which resulted in
their matrimonial differences being
patched up, and yesterday the re-
united family took the train for

G. S. Yost, one OF the reporters on
the Globe-Democrat, visited Sedalia
the other day with his wife.
Casper was born here at an early
day-about thirty years ago and
this was his first visit since, for his
father, G. G. Yost, moved away when
the kid was about three weeks old.
He did not see but four things
here that looked familiar. He was
born in a house on Pacific street that
is now used to keep the goats in that
give the tactical fluid that is used at
Goat house. The goats were not
here then, and of course did not take
any part in the rearing Of young
Yost, but goats milk is said to be a
most excellent food for young and
undeveIoped reporters.
Casper inquired about Billy Bard
and says he has a slight recollection
that he looked motherly, even at that
early day, and wanted to know if
Billy had not lived long enough to
look ike grandmother.
He asked if Tom Kehoe was still
flirting with the girls. He said Tom
was considered a standing bea for
the nurse girl bis mother had at that
time, but he Casper kicked, al
though his kicking had no effect on
results.
He remembered Col. Henry ID.
Hill at that early day. The Colonel
had Just married.
While here Casper saw a boy can
tering along the street on pony and
wanted to know if that was the "Jack
Rabbit that Ira Hinsdale rode, years
agone? a.
He called on Jake Nussberger and
told him who he was. Jake recollect-
ed him.
"Jake never forgets anything, does
he ?" queried Mr.. Yost. "What a
wonderful memory he has? He will
remember things on earth when he
has been buried three weeks. con-
tinued the early resident of Sedalia. .

twenty-one days old. The water

considerable use for water. He washes

been completed and he got eloquent

Mr.. Yost is one of the bright jour-
nalists of the west, brother of Col.
Robert M. Yost, formerly editor of
the Sedalia Democrats painstaking
reporter and a polished gentleman.
Sedalia is proud of him and the only
drawback to him is that he was never
connected with the BAzoo.
Call again, Yost, and you shall be
met at the train with band of music
and committee, headed by Mayor
Stevens, granting you the freedom of
the city.

The Utmost Courtesy l. AN Invitation tn a
Bath.
From the American.
The average ball in Port au Prince. n
genuine society affair, has some interest
ing characteristics. You are expected to
arrive about q o'clock in the evening, and
stay until daybreak. Your host, not your
hostess, is the conspicuous parsonage.
She is nobody, and nowhere i'm particular
that is according to Hayti's code. Your
host has selected n few of his gentlemen
friends TO assist him in receiving. They
meet the guests upon their arrival and
escort the ladies to the dressing room.
and, waiting for them, take them down
to the grand salon, where the women,
young and old, are seated around the
room and left to themselves, the gentle
men congregating out on the galleries m
ill a dance is called. when partners are
chosen and the wall-flowers are brought
forward. But the dance over, there is no
pleasant gossiping between the sexes-no
sitting on the chairs, and all that, but the
ladies are straightway led back To their
seats again and left to mediate or chatter
among themselves. Two bullets have
been set up for the occasion, one for the
gentlcmen-out on the gallery as n rule,
where drinks and cigars are served-the
other near the salon, for the ladies, sup

fections. A ball is rather stupid
for n woman unless she have plenty
of partners. Even the display of fancy
hosiery that Haytian bellies delight
In pals upon the yawning wearers after
a time. Sitting there, between the dances
they stretch out their slippered feet, and
the effect of these bright stockings Is some
consolation for the ennui they must en-
dure. that the men so merry outside may
enjoy their ball.
The horseback parties up into the
mountains are n marked feature of
Hayti's better social life. The cavalcade
starts off ut daybreak, or perhaps even
earlier; the objective point some oun
tain cabin where the contents If the

| SNATCHED FROM THE FAGOT,
| Capt. Brown Rescues an Indian Boy
From the Torture of Alaska Sayages.

Capt. Vim. Brown arrived in San Francisco
Saturday with seven-year-o Indian boy,
whom he recently rescued from death in the
heart of Alaska after an exciting fight with the
savages. Capt. Brown said that while travel
ing through the wild region of Alaska he heard
that little Indian boy was about to be burned
at the stake for witchcraft
The tribe had been attacked with ala grippe +"
which the medicine man could not cure, and
the boy, who was the son of one of the chiefs,
was charged with being in league with the
devil to thwart the effect of his medicine
After the deliberations of the council the
father agreed to the boys death There was
but one escape for the boy. If the old medicine
man, who was himself sick, did not die the boy
should live, but meantime the little fellow was
bound TO a. stake for seven days during very
severe weather with nothing to cover him.
II was believed that the moro terrible his
suffering the sooner the devil would be brought
to terms and the medicine man cured. On the
eighth day the old doctor grew rapidly worse
and 1t was resolved to burn the boy alive. All
the preparations were made. Fires were to be
lighted on the following morning at sunrise
Savage devils were already singing death songs
when the captain and his men arrived in the
neighborhood. Hidden by the darkness of the
forest Capt. Brown and his men crept forward
on their hands and knees. They saw the boy
tied amid the fagots and the black savages
lying around him. When the savages went to
sleep the captain crawled up to the boy and
cut him loose. The lad remained perfectly
quiet Suddenly one of the Indians awakened
and gave the alarm. The captain force rushed
in with cooked revolvers and overpowered the
savages. He then retreated with the bov TO
the river, where the party embarked by the first
steamer

The Weather and the Crona-

The weather crop bulletin for the week
ended August 2, 1880, issued by the Signal Of
flee, says: The week ended August 2 was de-
and territories, the most marked excuses in
temperature occurring in New England, and
from Texas nOrthward to Dakota, where the
daily temperature ranged from six to eight
degrees above the normal. II was cool on the
gulf and Pacific coasts and slightly below the
normal generally in the southern states
The weather during the past week has been
unfavorable for growing crops generally
throughout the entire corn belt, extending
from ONO and Michigan westward to Kansas
and Nebraska, and the continued drought, in
connection with the hot, dry winds west of the
Mississippi, has permanently injured the corn
crop, especially III Kansas, Nebraska and Mis-
souri,, and lowered the prospects of this crop
IN the states of the central valleys Reports
from the south Atlantic and gulf states indi-
cate that the weather during the past week has
been generally favorable Tor cotton in eastern
Louisiana and thence eastward over South
Carolina, although III some sections of Ala
bama and North Carolina cotton is shedding
badly and some slight injury is reported from
black rust. South Carolina reports all crops
benefited and cotton unlnjured by rain From
Virginia northward over western New York re-
cent showers have improved the crop condi-
lions, but corn, tobacco and potatoes are in
need Of more rain. On the Pacific coast the
weather was very favorable for harvesting in
Oregon and Washington, and the yield of
wheat and oats Is reported better than was ex-
pected. The general failure of fruit crops in
The east has increased the demand for Cali
fornla fruit and prices are reported better than
III many years.
