If you are renting a farm figure
a moment what you are paying out

this rental would buy a farm here.
What you pay out in rent in two

Twentieth Anniversary,

A very pleasant social event took
place at the residence of Mr.. and
Mrs. 2. ID. Kirk, of Clay town
ship, on Christmas day. 1t was
the celebration of their Goth mar
riage anniversary. A large num-
ber of relatives and friends had
received invitations to be present
on the occasion, and although the
weather WAS very disagreeable,
and the roads in a terrible condi-
ton, nearly y fifty persons were on
hand to enjoy the event and par
take of the numerous choice vi
ands that had been so artistically
prepared by the hostess. The
dinner was superb, and we have
not room to particularize, but suf-
flee it to say that in quantity it
vas ample, and in quality 1t was
unsurpassable, 1t being the oc
easion of their China wedding,
they received many handsome and
valuable presents in China ware
which were both us aful and orna-
mental. Quite number of per-
sons were present from Brashear,
among them Mr.. s. Il. Durham, q
brother of the hostess, who upon
reversing his plate at the dinner
table was agreeably surprised to
find under it magnificent pair of
gold spectacles, which had BEEN
placed there as a Christmas pres
ent. The surprise was complete
and MIR. D1nham was Completely
happy. The many friends pres
ent expressed the wish that Mr..
and Mrs. Kirk might live to cele
brato their golden wedding.

The American people want

The dispatches of Minister
Willis that have been withheld

IF the business portion of
Kirksyllle should be visited by
another destructive fire, the city
council would be severely censur-
ed for failing to furnish any means
of fighting fire when steamer
can be obtained for the insignlfi
cant sum of SIS per year.
- Kirksville needs water
works and the people will vote for
a proposition to secure them. If
the proposition carries $4,000
will be distributed among tho la
boring classes next spring and
summer, and preference will be
given to home people.
The city council should
take some step toward securing
the town against the Iavsges of
the fire fiend. If there is any good
reason why the Moberly fire en-
CINE should not be leased the
council should make it known and
satisfy the people.
The several churches of
KlrksvIlle that had Christmas
trees and delighted the little ones
with a distribution of gifts, did a
good thing. The little ones should
be remembered, and Xmas time
made SO joyous and happy that it
will never be forgotten by them.
But the work of the NJ. E. church
In distributing food and clothing
to the poor, and thus bringing sun
shine and comfort to many homes
is to be especially commended.
Let there be special effort next
year on the part of all the church
es to remember the poor.

which has taken possession OF
Mr.. Cleveland and the men who
are prominent in supporting his
policy, even when it is necessary
for them to turn complete somer-
ssults to do so, is causing broad
smile all over the town. The 9TH
er day son of Senator Mills.
who comes from State which has
long prided itself on fearless men,
applied to the police authorities
for permit to carry pistol to
protect his father from a mysteri-
ous assassin, who, he said, had
threatened to kill him. The per-
NIT WAS granted him, and young
Mr.. Mills went on his way rejoic-
ing in his license to carry a gun,
not expecting that any newspaper
man would ever know anything
about it. That's where he was
mistaken. A newspaper man not
only found it out, but he printed
it, and the braye Texas Senator
and his armed body guard became
the butts upon which the ridicule
which had been sccumulating on
account of certain more or less
absurd precautions which had
been taken at the White House
and the Capitol to keep out men
feared to be upon murder bent,
was poured without stint. The
Texas Senator, be it known, is q
man of fiery temper. When he
saw the publication and observed
the manner in which people eyed
him he became furious. He claims
to have known nothing about the
permit until he saw the publica-
ton. The sequel came out Sstur-
day afternoon, when young Mills
with disheveled hair and wild eyes
rushed into the police court and
asked that the permit issued to
him be cancelled, There is q
double moral to this story. First,
don't get frightened second,
don't expect to succeed in hiding
things from newspaper men.
The attempt on the part of Sec
retary Lamont to compel the 500
clerks who occupied the old Ford's
theatre building at the time of the
awful accident to 60 back into that
old death trap, which has been
patched up to the extent of $4,000
has been temporarily frustrated
by report of the local building
inspector, declaring the building
unsafe. A resolution is pending
in the Senate declaring against
the use of this building for cleri-
cal purposes again. Even if the
building were perfectly safe it
would still be an unnecessary cru
city to force the clerks who were
there when the accident took place
to again occupy it.
