An Aar.p,urs with . Burglar.

Colonel John Sobiesli, the Prohibition
candidate for governor of Missouri, who
was delegate to the national Prohibit
ton convention, had most thrilling adj
venture with burglars on his way to this
city.
He had stopped to deliver several lee
lures at Magnolia, q little village in
Illinois. He retired at his hotel. the
Magnolia House. shortly before mid
night. He was aroused about 2:30 o'clock
in the morning by hearing the sound Of
voices in the hall. He listened for a mo-
ment and concluded that it was tho land
lord calling some Of the other guests to
catch a train. With that he turned over
and fell asleep again. Shortly after that
he was startled from his slumber by a
bang at his door. which fell in with a
crash. He leaped out of bed, but was
confronted by masked man pointing a
revolver at him. He held lantern in
his hand and commanded the colonel to
get back into bed and put his head under
the bedsheet
Altogether the gang got about $50
and five gold watches. and then made its
escape, threatening the victims with
death in case of pursuit.
Colonel Sobieski says that when he
had his head under the sheet he asked
the burglar to kindly point the pistol out
of the window. The burglar laughed,
and the colonel thought it might be well
to temporize with him and said: Now
that you have got my watch and money,
perhaps you will oblige me by telling me
your politics. Are you Prohibitionistr'
mo, and IL thought you were I'd fill
you with bullets. replied the guard.
"Oh, no." said the colonel. I'm no
Prohibitionist. I'll have q drink with
You if you will get bottle somewhere.
mot now" said the burglar. Some
other lime when we are not busy" And
with that the conversation ceased.-Cin-

THE action OF the county commission
ers in filling the treasury vacancy, while
not pleasing to everybody, is certainl,
one in which there was much merit. The
number OF candidates for the position
precluded the possibility of all being sat

chosen, and certainly in Mr.. Stair We
have man OF honesty and ability, who
is in every way qualified to fill the duties
OF the office to the satisfaction OF the
public aud to the best interests Of the
