he was lynched. as the last seen of
him he was in the hands of an iufuri-

him since the dead and outraged body
of little nine-year-old girl was found
last Tuesday. Brown had waylaid
the child before, and no question of
his quiet was entertained.

"Fantasma" At the Globe.


There was an immense house at the
Globe Theatre last night, when the
Honlons presented their famous
"Fantasma," with numerous addit-
ions and improvements. And what
is "Fantasma?" 1t is an entertain
ment compounded of mystery, mirth
and magnificence. For two hours
and half one is vertically in realm
of enchantment. The unexpected is
always happening and fun and frolic
are ever alternating with beauty and
splendor. Description is useless. In
the first pace, it is impossible to
remember 1.-THE of the wonderful
things that follow so rapidly, and
those things that are rendered would
only suffer by any attempt todescribe-
them. There are several grand trans
formation scenes, a large number of
beautiful tableaux, tricks innumera-
able, and quite a menagerie of ami
mails, including bears, serpents and
rabbits on land and gigantic crabs,
Holsters and octopuses in the sea.
Add to this clever acting, the special
ties and the very elaborate and yet
smooth manner in which everything
is done, and the result is an enter
tainment that pleases every body, old
and young.-BOston Transcript.

weddings M the Court House

Two weddings took place yester
day afternoon in the Office of the
circuit clerk. Four young people
were in haste to be married and after
procuring their licenses they called
upon Elder Ed. r. Marvin, the ac-
cOmmodating deputy circuit court
clerk and justice of the peace and re-
quested him to pronounce the words
that would bind them together so
long as life lasts. Elder Marvin
cheerfully performed the marriage
ceremony, with that quiet dignity
which always wins admiration from
the biushing brides. After binding
the knots tight and fast he gave them
some wise fatherly advice and then
congratulated them upon the import
ed step they had taken.

INVESTIGATING HEAVEN.
Mary Weldon Says That Her
Child was Born to Her,
but "WithOut Sim"

Rockford, ILL.,, October IL
George Jacob Schweinfurth, Father
Weldon and the disciples and angels
of the Winnebago county Heaven
were before the grand jury to-day.
Mary Weldon said that she had been
follower of the faith since she was a
child. She had never had relations
with any other and had ever been a
seeker for the light. She had had a
child, but it came without sin, and
she rejoiced to think that she had
been cbosed a worthy to bring it into
the world. The entire Weldon family
was examined with practically the same
result. There are none of the inmates
of the " Heaven who does not appear
to be anxious to give their testimony.
Father Weldon himself, with his ven
cradle and handsome face, soft voice
and patient bearing made deep i'm
preston upon the jurors. His two
daughters, five sons and Apostle Smith
all gave their testimony, and none Of
them varied an iota. The sleeping
accommodations of "Heaven" were
and all the evidence went TO
show that they lived happy and
blameless lives. 1t is not thought
possible that the grand jury will be
able to do anything toward breaking
UP Schweinfurth's business.

The dining room girl meanwhile had
changed her position 30 that the Tex

a sudden fight of cups. and saucers,

the air, made haste to leave the dining

BEAUTIFUL FRUIT.
Ten Train Loads of Apples
Shipped FIOm sedalia to
the East.
A Nice Income TO Fruit Growers
-Nesrly $4,000 Paid Out
for Apples by one
Firm.

Pettis county has gained . well
earned reputation abroad for being
the producer of az fine fruit as was
ever cultivated and brought to high
state of perfec ion as grown anywhere
in this country. Wherever Pettis
county has entered into competition
with other fruit growing districts of
this and other states she has slways
come out with fyirg colors. Last
year Pettis county was represented at
the New Era exposition at st. Joseph,
making q display of fruits and agri-
cultural produces the | Ike of which
for excellence was never before exhib-
tied at any fair or exposition
There we're many competi-
tons for TIE big prize offered, in
Guiding the grand display made by
Andrew county, yet Pettis cOunty's
exhibit was the center of attraction of
the thousands of daily visitors. Her
victories at the Sc. Louis fairs and
the more re ent sweep of the whole
field at Kansas City, with hands
down, are well known to all fruit
growers.
The culture of apples is becoming
an important factor as most profit
able crop in this section of Missouri
and which trops may fail east and
west dCentral Missouri, can always
be depended upon to supply the mar
kets of the world with the choicest
that grows. The orchards of the
east are becomming improfitably |
the old orchards have become barren |
and the new ones are uncertain pro-
ducers. But the billy lands of Mis- |
souri, are being put to a most excel
lent use. Apples on these highlands
grow to a high stage of perfection and
bring the highest prices offered for
that fruit
During the past three weeks one
firm alone has shipped from Sedalia |
$1,000 barrels of winter spplss AZ
one freight car holds only 80 barrels
the shipment was equal to ten trains,
of thirty cars each, loaded
with Pettis county apples,
The firm referred to is that of
Peycke Bros Company. of Omoha, OF |
which ]. B: Wilcox Of this I city is e e
proportion of the apple crop. yet
their shipment Dies not comprise one
half of all the apples shipped from Sc
dalia this season, many local buyers
are shipping to commission merchgnts
in Kansas City, St. Louis and Chi
cago. Messrs. Peycke bought only |
the best marketable winter apples and
packed eleven pecks in each barrel.
The prices paid varied according to
variety, condition, size and perfect
ion but the average price
was 65 cents per bushel, or an in
come of S43, 062.50 to Pettis county
fruit growers. The varieties were Ben
Davis, Wine saps, Willow Twigs,
Roman beauties, Jonatbans, Gene
tians, winter pippins and Huntsmen's
Favorite. Three-fourths of all the
app es were the Ben Davis apple all
Of which were very choice.
The apples bought in this section
are shipped to Pittsburg. Pa, and
New Yoyk City where they bring
from $3.50 to 81 per barrel according
to the state of the markets. Those
not shipped East are forwarded to
Omaha and Leadville, Col.
