Death of o. Deuel..

Died, at Long Beach, Cal, on Sunday,
Sept. Goth, o. Deuel., of Salem. Wis.
Deceased was 50 years of age. His
death occurred after only few hours
illness, and was caused by heart failure
brought on by general debility and old
age He was born in Washington Co.,
n. Y, and spent his life a farmer. In
1912 he came to Southport, Wis, with his
wife and two children and located on the
farm in Salem where he lived for Al years.
In 1850 he crossed the plains to California
and spent nearly two years in the mines,
with moderate success. In 1887 in COM
pany with Mrs E. Van VIE. the only
survivor of the little band of pioneers, he
iourneyed by rail over nearly the same
route pursued on his former perilous
journey to California. Here he enjoyed
the last few years of a long and useful
life, and made large circle of friends in
bis new home. He retained his faculties
10 the last, taking an active interest in
literature and the social problems of the
day Thus peacefully closes the career
Of another of those pioneers, whose hands
have helped to make Kenosha the pres
porous county it is and the influence Of
whose blameless lives will be power for
good in the communities in which they
wrought for years to come.

Gossip on the Street.

Said man who is posted in tie grain
markets, 1T is my opinion of course that
those farmers who did not sell their corn
while the White corner was on have made
a serious blunder because we will proba-
bly, see several SHOWS before corn is sc
high again. S. Y. White & Cos corner
carried corn up to 20 cents in Chicago
about September % before the firm failed
and the corner collapsed. White s. Co.
will pay out and resume, but they have
lost fortune. The price of corn has fall
len about II cents since their failure.
Surprising that there is yet old corn in the
country, it would be good advice to urge
them to sell it before December because
then the new and old corn will be on the
same basis.

Racine Telephones Useless.

The entire telephone system of Racine
is crippled and the $50 telephones are
useless. The trouble was caused by an
electric light wire falling upon the tele-
phone wires at point on Sixth street
Sunday morning. The electric current
ran into the central station, and the box
leading into the building and containing
the hundreds of wires caught fire and
burned off every wire. In consequence
not telephone can be used, and connec-
ton was only obtained with Milwaukee
by running out an extra line. 1t will be
week or ten days before the damage can
be repaired. The damage is estimated at
about $780,

At the recent meeting

At the recent meeting of
the directors of the st. Louis
Short Line at Hannibal, the fact
developed that the mau, cement Of
that road seriously cunemplates
extending their line to kirksville
during the coming summer. There
is nothing that would be of more
benefit to Kirksville and Adair
county, than another railroad, 1t
would not only increase our ship
ping facilities, but would eventu-
ally cause the full developm ent OF
our coal interests, thus placing
our county far in the lead of any
other county in North Missouri.
There will be another meeting of
directors at Hannibal in a short
time, and at this meeting a final
decision in lesard to the extension
of the line will be reached. Other
towns and counties are working
for it, and it is necessary that our
people move in this matter at once.
We lost the Santa Fe by inaction,
and repetition of our hlunder IS
not pleasant to contemplate. Let
a meeting be callca and commit
tees appointed to work up an in
terest and determine what induce
ments can be offered to bring the
road to kirksville.
