VIII Build a New Depot.

ST. LOUIS, Jan. 29.-It is learned to-
night that the Louisville & Nashville
Railroad company has leased for a
period of ten years an entire block of
ground in this city at the st. Louis end
OF the merchants terminal bridge and
will erect thereon large freight depot.
Some time ago the Pennsylvania road
purchased four blocks of ground in the
same locality, and it is believed both
roads will use the merchants terminal
bridge as an entrance to st. Louis.

1t more so as time passes. We mean
to touch lightly on offensive partisan

Whose duty is it to save people
from breaking their necks on broken
sidewalks! There is an old building
on the corner of Pacific Ave. and
Sixth st. which is dangerous to the
town and temptation to boys to put
Il match to some night. The side
walk in front of this shanty is in
such condition that, night or day,
it is exceedingly dangerous. An.
other very dangerous spot is West
9Th st. in front of the public school,
where two planks are entirely gone
and a deep hole left to entrap the
unwary.
We could name several other
spots in our side walks that are very
much in the interest of the doctors
and lawyers, aud for which the
overwhelmed taxpayers will some
day have to take on an additions
al load. We are of the
opinion that there is a street and

make repairs and have them taxed
up to owners.

a large birthday party gathered at

evening Of Nov. 3, it being the 62d.
anniversary of Mrs. Smiths birth
day. 1t was made a very enjoyable
occasion to the family and everyone
in the party seemed to try to make
each other happy. Mrs. Smith was
the recipient of numerous valuable

will be pleasantly remembered, es.
pecially the children who. by their
presents, showed their apppreci~

Such occasions not only make PEG.

The Nav Bell.

The sound Of the church going

Hill. 1t is fine toned bell and will
be fully appreciated by the residents

We suggest that the Y. p. s. G. E.

appoint night to have a guessing
bee and charge a certain sum for
each guess. This would be a good
plan to raise funds, and the curiosity
of the people at the same time. The

At Rest.


Mr.. A. B. Steadman, Of this viii
lage departed this life on Monday
the 9th day Of Nov. A. ID. 1891, aged
70 years and l month.
Mr.. Steadman was born in New
York state, Oct. 6, 1918, but moved
to Pennsylvania in early life. He
was married in Philadelphia to the
wife whom he followed to the grave
just twelve weeks ago.. He and his
wife lived successfully in PennsyI-
vania, Ohio and Illinois, moving to
Morris about II years ago where he
lived until the close Of his life. He
was well known here as a law-abiding
industrious citizen. He had been a
long time sufferer before death came
to his relief. He leaves six children;
his sons are Rev. Henry Steadman of
the Baptist church of ILL.,, and Arth-
ur Steadman; his daughters are Mrs.
J. J. Newell, Mrs. Fagen, Mrs. Jas.
Denison and Mrs Geo. F. Cogel.

The Worlds Fair Arport,onmeus.

Gov. Merriam has written letters
to some of our prominent citizens,
urging the necessity of action with
reference to raising our apportion-
ment to the worlds fair fund. The
allotment for this county is only $50
and should require no effort. We
are sorry it is not more, for we are
rated according to the assessed valu.
alton of the taxable property, and
this small amount shows the limited
wealth of our county.
Elsewhere will be seen call for a
citizens meeting at the Morris on
tomorrow evening, to devise ways
and means; it is to be hoped we will
have a good attendance.
Stevens county took second prize
at the state fair for agricultural pro-
ducts, and will most likely take first
next year 80 it wont do to let the credit
ofthe county go down in such a
picavunish business as this. 1t would
lock too much like fishing for min
nows for any effort to be required
among the prosperous business men
of Morris to raise this very small
amount.
The captious croakers will cry out
about the waste, and about the cities.
There is no waste in this matter.
When the nations of Europe are con-
tributing to make the affair a grand
success, the states of the Union may
well afford to ,ntributea little for
their own benefit, for it really is a
great advertising scheme for the
United States. AS to the twin cities:
they deserve nothing but praise in
the matter. They contributed about
half Of the entire 500, 900. and would
have raised the whole amount sooner
than let the fair fame of the state be
furnished. It should be thought O
privilege to give to this enterprise.

all the sidewalks in the village for a
