One of the most attract
i've stores in Bolivar by long
odds is Barrett's. Every
thing about the house is as
bright as new pin. The
attraction, however,
is his remarkably low prices.
He will receive an immense
line of shoes next week,
bought at a bargain and they
will be sold very cheap. Bar
ret requests us to state that
he will pay highest market
prices for chickens, eggs,
butter and Irish potatoes.

The Famous wyoming Case Thrown
Out of Court.


The Famous wyoming Case Thrown
Out of Court.
CHEYENNE, Wy, Jan. 4.-The case
of the cattlemen who some months ago
invaded johnson county for the pur-
pose of exterminating the so called
rustlers or cattle thieves, and in the at
tempt killed two men, named Champion
and Ray, burned several buildings and
were in turn corralled by the settlers
and only escaped with their lives by
the aid of United States troops, has
been thrown out of court. The twenty
three defendants who appeared for trial
have been discharged. A motion for
dismissal was entered by Mr.. Bennett,
the peoples attorney for johnson
county, and allowed.
The matter has disturbed the state
for nine months, arrayed section against
section, party against party and class
against class. The ending so long an
ticipated was brought about by the &C
tion of the sheriff of this county. He
produced nearly thousand talesman
and said that he could find no more in
town; that he had no guarantee of ex-
pense, could not get it from the John
son county people and that he did not
care to furnish funds to summon ven-
iremen from the country. The affair
has involved an expenditure on both
sides of over $500. 900.

a NEBRASKA FAILURE.
The Capitol National Bank at Lincoln
Collapses.

CoIIapses.
LINCOLN, Neb., Jan. 4.-The start
ling announcement OF. the failure of the
Capitol National bank was made pub
lie shortly after IL o'clock p. m, and
with it came the statement that the
state treasurer was caught in the crash
in the sum of $3.50. 900. The appearance
of National Bank Examiner j. M. Grit
fifth, who came in on the evening train,
was responsible for the closing of the
bank, which came in few honrs after
that official began his investigation of
the books and papers of the institution.
1t is stated that the failure is bad one,
but the exact situation cannot be ascer-
tanned. The deposits amount to about
$685., 900, and of this sum between $780,
600 and $25O,000 are state funds, for
which the bond of the treasurer will
be liable. The capital stock is $3.50, 900,
all paid up. Cashier r.. O. Oucalt
stated that the assets would protect the
. .depositors, but there is great doubt ex-
pressed as to the correctness Of this
statement.

as 1t was forced through the air. Then
there arose confusion of agonizing APP
peals for help and cries of terror, to
which no tongue or pen can do justice.
For several minutes the
Panic Was Indescribable.
Those touched by the blazing oil groped
about wildly. seeking in vain for relief
from their torture. Almost without
exception the injured were burned
about the face, and had their eyesight
temporarily, IL not permanently, de-
stroyed. Those who were uninjured
were SO terror stricken as to be unable
to assist their less fortunate companions
for some time.
Gradually the horror of the holocaust
gave way to realization of the neces-
sity for quick relief for the wounded.
Hastily improvised litters were formed
of doors and shutters from the neigh
boring cottages. Willing hands ten
derly carried the dead and injured to
Wann, where they were placed in the
depot until relief train could be
brought to the scene, when they were
taken to st. Joseph's hospital, Alton.

The Distinguished Invalid spent
Comfortable Night.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24-There were
few signs of life around Mr. Blaine's
house during the late honrs of the night
and early morning, which gave to those
outside the impression that the ex-
secretary was as comfortable as he has
been for the past few days. The front
door was opened shortly after o'clock
and in answer to a question the attend
ant said that the patient had expert
enced a very good night and had rested
well.
DIR, Johnston called on his morning
visit at 1890 q. m. He remained at the
bedside of the patient for half an hour.
On leaving the house he said that he
found Mr.. Blaine was feeble, though
not alarmingly SO. He continues to
take fair amount of nourishment.
DR.. Johnston said he did not consider
Mr.. Blaine in critical condition. Mrs.
Damrosch and Miss Hattie Elaine left
the house about $50 o'clock ior morn
ing walk and did not return until after
the doctors visit.

Egyptian Affairs Engrossing English
Attention mt Present.
LONDON, Jan. 4.--The Egyptian situ-
alton is assuming gravity which for
the time overwhelms in the public mind
all other issues, including even Irish
home rule. Lord Roseberry has received
telegraphic advices from Lord Cromer
to the effect that the khedive had init
mated his intention to refer to the>
Turkish sultan and to the treaty of the
powers, the action of England in caus-
ing the dismissal of the Fakhari cabinet.
Other advices from Cairo state that the
natives are in more excited condition
than at any time since the outbreak
under the leadership of Arab Pasha.
While a considerable part of the mod
crate and intelligent natives support
the British position, the masses take
sides with the kkedive, and against what
they call infidel dictation.
A Cabinet Position.
Mr.. Gladstone caused cabinet coun-
Gil to be called to consider the Egyptian
crisis. The Marquis of Ripon, secretary
for the colonies, left q bed of sickness
to be present at the cabinet meeting.
The council sat for two hours. While
the cabinet was in session a stream of
kilograms continued to pour into the
! foreign Office from Cairo. These were
Immediately transmitted to the cabinet.
| When the cabinet adjourned it was to
re-assemble at p. m. The prolonged
session of the cabinet is understood to
be due to difference of opinion as to
the necessity of reinforcing the British
army of occupation in Egypt, both with
a view to protecting British inter.
ests at Cairo, and to protecting the
frontier against the dervishes, who have
recently become very menacing.
The French Protest.
A note reached Lord Roseberry or
Saturday from the French foreign Office
in relation to Egyptian affairs, The
note stated that the French government

SPEED OF CANNON BALLS.
How the Velocity of a ProjectiIe Is
Measured.
Now York Pres

NOW freSS.
"The speed Of every sort OF projectile can be
measured now to the friction OF an inch per
second and by calculating the resistance OF
the air it can be determined to the smallest
fraction OF a second just how long it i'll take a
missile 70 reach desired mark" said an en-
gineer Of the navy-yard yesterday.
"How. 1t Is extremely simple. So simple
that its accuracy cannot be questioned. We
have what you might call a 20O-fOot rule, and
the time required by the shot to pass over the
first 200 feet from the mouth OF the gun Is
measured by 1t to give the initial velocity OF the
ball or SHE'LL

mouth Of the gun At the 10O-fOot mark fine
wire screen Is set through which the ball must
pass. Another similar screen Is SET 100 feet
beyond this one. through which the shot also
passes. The screens are MADE OF very fine cop
per wire, and are electrically connected with
two strong magnets From each of these
magnets depends a steel rod held TO the
shot breaks the wires of the first screen one OF
the rods is released aud falls. When it travels
100 feet further and passes through the second
screen the second bar falls and strikes a catch

of the shot.

Quently the farther the bar will fall before the

''By this means the speed of some cannon
balls has been found TO be as great as 5000 feet
a second where the charge OF powder was hea
enough, but generally the initial velocity Of an
ordinary missile Is not over 1900 feet a second"
