A FITTING TRIBUTE.
Resolutions of Respect to the
Memory of the Late DIR.
Walker by His
CO-labOrers.

MEXICO, Mo, Jan again has
the medical profession of this city
and vicinity been called to mourn
the loss of one OF its noblest, most
conscientious and most prominent
members.-Dr. Wellington V. |
Walker, who was born on the 9th
day of December, 1854, in Mason
county, Ky. His early education
was received at common schools
and at Georgetown Male College.
He remained in the hospital one
year. March II, 1880, be married
Miss Blanche J. Gary, of Louis
vile. KY. In 1880 he came to Mis-
souri, and practiced in Sedaila and
vicinity until 1882, when he came
to Mexico where he remained until
his death. He became a member
of the Missionary Baptist church
in 1868. In 1875 he commenced
the study of medicine in the Louis
Vile Medical College, where he
graduated with honors in 1879.
He received the appointment OF
resident physician to Louisville
City Hospital after a competitive
examination with the students OF
four medical colleges of Louisville.
He scarcely begun his career of
usefulness when he was suddenly
stricken down by the relentless
hand of death.
Though yet young, DIR. Walker
had made advancements and reach
ed a height in his profession, to
which he was devoted, far greater
than many of those his seniors in
years and professional practice.
He laboced earnestly and assidu,
usly in the arduous calling he had
chosen, and not wholly for pur
poses of gain, tor he promptly re
sponded to the call of all who came
and demanded his professional
services, whether rich or poor He
exhibited in the study and prac-
tice of his profession an energy
worldly of emulation by those of us
who remain.
All of his relations with the pro-
fession were most kindly, i'll the
social, as we'll as in the profession
al walk of life, and ali mo knew
him loved him, and highly appre-
ciated the true merit he so fully
possessed, both Of character and
learning.
The vacancy made by his sad
and sudden death cannot be easily
filled. We shall miss him from
our mid-t. Wherefore; he it
Resolced, That in the death of
DR.. Wallington V. Walker, the
medical profession OF this city and
vicinity mourn the loss of an hon
ored, useful member, and the pro-
tession at large a faithful and skill
full co-Iaborer.
,Resolved, AS a physician and
surgeon, DR.. Walker possessed
more than ordinary zeal in the pur-
suit of his profession, and natural
lily won the confidence of his pa
tients as well as the respect of his
conireres.
Resolved, That we respectfully
tender our sympathy to the be-
reaved widow and family of de,
ceased, and that copy of these
resolutions be furnished them, and
also that they be published in the
papers of this city, and also in the
Central Baptist and Regular Baptist

FAILURES OF 1890.
The Worst Year Since 1854
Bateman & Co. Assign.

New YORK, Dec. 31.-The bust.
ness failures occurring throughout
the United States for the entire
year 1890, as reported by R. G.
Dun g. Co. are 10,907 in number,
but 25 greater than 1889, when the
number was 1882. The liabili.
ties show a very large increase over
1880, being s1S9, ,OO0, 900 as against
s14S, 900, 900, an increase of $4l,-
100000. These are the largest
liabilities since 1884. when they
amounted to s226, 100000.

THE matter of bankruptcy legis-
lation is of great interest to every
business man throughout the coun-
try. The Torrey bill affords speedy,
economical and equitable means
for the settlement of the estates
of insolvents and the rightful dispo-
sition of their assets among credi.
tors; it is calculated to prevent
fraud; it will prevent preferences
and thereby increase the credit of
the debtor class and the confidence
of the creditor class. By being a
National law, uaiform in it's extent
and operation it will prevent the
confusion, uncertainty and loss
often occasioned by existing multi
farlous State laws relating to as
sianments, the estates ofinsolvents,
and like statutes. Providing, as
the bill does, for the speedy and
economical settlement of estates 1t
will enable creditors to secure
larger dividends than by existing
Sta.e laws; it will be more equita-
BILE to the debtor, because it will,
upon the surrender of his property
enable him, after reasonable time,
to secure a complete discharge
from all his liabilities and to COM
mence business life anew. The
many superior features Of the bill,
the fact that it is demanded by
business interests in every section
of the coontry, and that it is wholly
non-partisan, should entitie it to
the careful consideration of the
present Congress.

His crownlng need is the need of

find, and with beneficial results,
no doubt, on the plan of enlistment
for military service, which has
been recommended IN the gradual
dissolution of tribal relations and
the ownership of lands in severalty,

all, in a system of administration,

Christmas is "Recent' in New
England.
From the Boston Herald


1t is only within the past ten
years that Christmas has become a
popular festival in New England.
Representative Morse of Massachu-
setts remembers that when he
was boy there was no thought of
celebrating Christmas in his section
of the country. The old Puritans,
regarding Christmas as Catholic
festival, made it point to ignore
it, and worked harder than usual
on the very day when all The rest
of the world was merrymaking.
Nowadays, however, the New Eng
landers welcome Christmas with an
enthusiasm that almost equals the
feeling iE the South. The spread
of the observance of Christmas is,
to Mr.. Morse's mind AN overwhelm.

You kissed me. My head
Dropped low on your breast
With IA feeling of shelter
And infinite rest,
While the holy emotions
My tongue dared not speak
Flashed up in flame
From my heart to my cheek.
Your arms held me fast;
Oh! your arms were so bold,
Heart beat against heart
In their passionate fold.
Your glances seemed drawing
My soul through my eyes
AS the sun draws the mist
From the sea to the skies.
Your lips clung to mine
Till L prayed in my bliss
They might never unclasp
From the rapturous kiss.
You kissed me. My heart,
And my breath, and my will,
In delirious joy
For moment stood still.
Life had for me then
No temptations, no charms -
No visions of happiness
Outside of your arms;
And were this instant
An angel, possessed
Of the peace and the joy
That are given the hlest,
Iwould fling my white robes
Unrepiningly down,
1 would tear from my forehead
Its beautiful crown
TO nestle once more
In that heaven of rest
Your lips upon mine,
My head on your breast.
You kissed me. My soul,
In bliss SO divine,
Reeled and swooned like drunkart
Foolish with wine,
And I thought 'twere delicious
To die there, if death
Would but come, while my lips
Were yet moist with your breath
If might grow cold
While your arms clasp me roun'
In their passionate fold,
And these are the questions
ask day and night:
Must lips taste no more
Such exquisite delight?
Would you care if your breast
Were my shelter as then,
And if you were here
Would you kiss me again:
