ports, Local News and matters Of
interest to Virginia, but more es.
pecially to this city and section Of
the State.
The GAZETTE is now the Oldest
paper in the State, ard with few
exceptions the Oldest il the coun.
try, and its usefulness has been de-
monstrated and appreciated during
the NINETY. ONE YEARS Of its exist.
ence. In its columns has always
been found a mirror Of passing
events and the caEeful chronicling
of the history Of what is going on
in the world has ever been its aim.
1t is always welcomed in the house
hold, while in the counting room
and work shop it has become in.
valuable.
The GAZETTE, situated as it is SO
close to Washington, the great CEN
ire of news, enjoys daily the bene-
fit of the ASSOCIATED PRESS DIS.
PATCHES from every part CT the
world; hence its patrons can read
from its columns in the evening
what has transpired that day in ev-
cry portion Of the United States as
well as from every part of the hab.
table globe. Consequently it is
an every. day occurrence for the
GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals about
twelve or fifteen hours earlier than
the morning papers.
Correspondence from Washing
ton, Richmond and every sactlon of
the State is published regularly,
and all events of interest occurring
within the bounds Of the Common
wealth are to be found in the COL
umns of the GAZETTE.
The local department furnishes a
full and complete history of every
thing that occurs in and near the
city, and this feature will, as ever,
receive careful attention.
Another feature that serves to
make The GAZETTE great desider-
alum with merchants is its after.
noon market reports from all the
great centres Of the country.
The GAzETTE's circulation in this
city is now larger than at any time
IN its history and is steadily increas.
ing, especially among those who
consult its advertising columns be-
fore purchasing.
The COUNTRY EDITION is
nearly as large as that of the daily.
This edition is sent out three times

NEVADA, Mo-, Dec. 26.-The Missouri,

o lively crossing war, which threatens to
result seriously. The seat of wal Is twelve
miles west Of here, where the Kansas City
road seeks to build q crossing over the NJ.
K. & +, tracks, and legal controversy over
the crossing has been going on for some
time. Saturday the Kansas City officials
obtained an injunction restraining the NJ,
K. s. T. road from interfering with the
former road. and to-day the work of con-
structing the crossing was begun. The NJ.
X. & I. men had relaxed their watchful-
ness on account of to-day being a holiday,
and IL was noon before the news reached
here that the crossing was being
started. When the NJ, X. 81 4.

situation. and as o desperate resort ran the
train upon the crossing. stopping the en-
CINE and dltchiDR one car. Two men were
slightly hurt. The Kansas City people
fastened ropes attached to their engine
aroun the PROSTATE car n attempted to

tied the engine to trees with ropes. with
the result that the wreck still remains
upon the crossing. Both sides have been
reinforced with armed men, until now over
four hundred men are camped on the
ground. Serious trouble is threatened IN

terms of the courts injunction. Much bad
feeling exists between the hostile parties.

two Young men. whose names could

found the burglar hiding behind the door.
He saw himself discovered and topped out

him several times upon the arms. he then
returned the attack and knocked the girl

Jaycock says the girls are his cousins,
and that when he went to the house he

tered. After remaining few minutes he
heard the girls enter and make some re-
mark about burglars. The idea then, he
said. presented itself to scare them.

Representative Simpson Would Like to BE
Mr.. PETERS Colleague In the Senate.
Topeka. Kan., Dec. 26.-Representative
Jerry Simpson arrived here yesterday in
time for Christmas dinner. but his arrival
was not generally known until to-day.
This morning he put all doubts to rest con-
corning his candidacy for the United states
Senate by announcing hat he was q can
didate. He SAID. however. that his pres
ence was due more to q desire to help the
PopuIite endeavor to organize the House
than in his own interest. The organize
ton of the House. he further said, depend
ed upon the Supreme Court, before which
the House contest cases had been flied. OF
course the court could not finally settle the
contest, but what the court could do was
to prevent O man from working a wrong.
which was all the Popolites asked.
Confidence grows in Republican circles
that the Supreme Court will not interfere
in any of the cases. The party managers
have em ployed attorneys TO appear in be-
half of the State and county boards of can
vassers. but they are not expected TO make
any very great effort. A prominent Re-
publican intimated as much this morning.
and also said that as none of the contested
cases was based npOn the charge of fraud
the court would take no action In the mat
ter. The charge of fraud was the only one
the court could recognize as a just basis
for action.
