OUR COUNTRY NEWSPAPERS.

| The people of Missouri should bt
proud of their country papers. In
the aggregate they are uuexcelled b,
those of any other state in the union
With but few exceptions they are
newsy, and clean and enterprising
and represent an amount of ply
expenditure and brain outlay that
must be studied to be fully compre
hended.
The BAZOo has on its table, a,
The end OF every week, a stack of ex
changes which, in themselves, would
make volume of state history to he
found nowhere else in the land.
Ii some mighty cataclysm should
visit this fair commonwealth and
sweep away all records of its history.
save those contained in single week
list of newspapers, the future anna
lis. would still have abundant materi-
al upon which to build a stupendous
yo,Gme.
1t can also be asserted that never
before have there been SO many news
papers Of so uniformly an excellent
character published in Missouri as
now. Some people may complain
that there are too many papers, but
the complaint is not well founded.
These weekiies and dailies that lie
IN orr table find field in whirh 10
operate and comparatively few of
them 90 Ia the wall. And while they
may no. yield returns always COM
mensuratc with the labor expended
upon them, they serve the double
purpose of making a livelihood for
the editor and OF aiiording entertain
ment and instruction to the masses.
THE BAzoo Is proud To- he num-
bered among the newspapers OF Mi--
souri,. Taken a. whole they are the
Indispensable messengers that bring
t. thousands of families tiiIngs of
what the world l. doing. Ii son or
daughter is married ii Is happily
for future generations. IF
the dark hand of death dethrones
the angels Of happiness, words of con
are written upon the white
pages that may bring surcease to
In fact, all the multitude

up modern society are set forth faith
fully in the Missouri country news
paper, without which, in its visits 70

Ages would overhsng our two million
people.

The editor of the Palmyra Spec,aor
lost his patience as follows: 1.-The
man who wipes his nose on his sleeve,
picks his teeth with fork, squirts to.
bacco on stove hearth, rides to mill
with corn in one end of sack and a
stone in the other, drives TO market
with hickory bark iiues, deposits his
money IN his last winters socks, in
sists on paving his taxes in coon skins
and wild honey, fastens his own sus-
penders with wooden peg, and wears
'possum belly pants, is the old rooster

Tarsney Fayors Income fax.

WASHINGTON. ID. c.. Dec. 2.-Mr.
Tarsney, of Missouri. believes that it
will yet he found necessary to tax
individual incomes. He holds that
= per cent on corporation incomes
and 10 cents per gallon on
whiskey would raise only "a million
dollars and that at least 6 millions
more would have to be provided.
He favors a per cent tax on incomes
Of over $1,000 per year and holds
that this would give Z millions more
revenue.

UNFORTUNATE WOMEN.

There is widow in Sedalia whose
career ami condition are Illustrative
f that of hundreds a other women.
In earlier life a lover came her way
aud wOoed and won her IN the good
old fashion we western people have.
She was young and iair. Her
tresses fell in a silken shower about
her shoulders. The happy light of
heaven beamed in her eyes. The
elasticity of maidenhood made her
,teps fairy-iike and graceful.
He was honest and brave and hand
ssme. No Knight OF the Round
Table was more daring or gentle than
he. He stroked her sunny hair with
a hand that could alike cares with
tenderness or smite an enemy 10 MS
feet
The fu ure was fair and sweet to
contemplate. 1t there were any
clouds in the sky, they were Of
golden tint. Ii there were any
shadows lowering near, they were
edged with silver. Bird-songs were
borne upon the hreeze and the brook
carried upon its silvery bosom the
bridal song and the angelic intona:ion
Of wedding bells.
But a new and fearful factor
offered into their lives. The hus-
Band became harrassed by business
cares. He sought nepenthe and sur
xease from ANNOYANCE in the wine cup.
He forgot his duties TO his family.
His store or his shop or his office saw
MIN seldom occupied.
One day the sheriff came with cruel
papers. He and his wife and chill
aren were virtually cvictcd troru their
little home, about whose caves the
honeysuckie- had once clustered and
xhere the robins once cooed and
mated and built their airy homes.
The distressed husband sought re-
kef by plurging still deeper into
strong drink, and she who still
rlunc f. him with woman's
heavenly heroisIn, saw the inroads of
disease wearing him away. She
severed her face, She hid her tears, !
she lifted her trembling vo,ce to God. I
One day her sole support and pro-
rector died and left her and her
children in ahject poverty. She had j
no; "A cent tn buy q loaf of bread, not
a nickel 10 purchase stick % wood
90 keep them warm i'll the wintry
weather. AMI -, to this day-sti'l
loving the unfortunate dead to whom
at the altar of marriage she had !,
sworn allegiance for better or worse
.he makes her Way YEARLY, glad if
the good God might take her and her
little ones out OF this forhidding
world.

His Fortune to Unborn Heirs.

The win of Michael Reilly, the Wheel
ing millionaire, is the most remarkable
document OF the kind ever made in the
state of West Virginia, if not in the
country. By its terms his last surviv-
ing grandchild must die before the estate
can be touched, and then it must be di-
vided among his grandchildren's de-
scendants only. AS the youngest of the
grandchildren is but six months old, and
the family is known for its longevity,
the prospects for division of the prop
erty within the next seventy-fve years
are remote.-Cor. Washington Post

money Lost ON Dining Cars.

-eIt is imagined by nearly every trav-
e1er who pays seventy-fve cents or one
dollar for a meal on a dining car that
the company Is reaping wonderful
harvest" said a travelling passenger
agent of one of the leading roads in
America, ''but the figures will soon con-
vince the most skeptical that the project
Is a losing one to the companies, and
every one would dispense with the din
ing car service if they only could. It
Is the great competition existing between
the different roads and the desire on the
part of the public for rapid transit that
forces the companies to place dining
cars on their through trains. All of the
great trunk line roads are putting on
faster and faster trains every few
months.
LAS soon as one company puts on
train that will cover the distance be-
tween any two important points quicker
than the other roads can, then all the
rest of the roads set to work to reduce
the time, and inside of two or three
months some other road viii announce a
train that will make the distance in ff-
teen, thirty, forty-five minutes or an
hour faster than its rival. And so 1t
goes. If any of those fast trains should
stop twenty minutes at station wherea
dining hall is, then the trains with the
dining cars attached would reach the
point of destination all the way from
forty minutes to an hour earlier, and the
result would be that they would carry
the majority of the travelling public. 1t
is not cheap meals the people who travel
on railroads want so much today as rapid
transportation. Last year the Pullman
Car company served 100000 meals on
their dining cars, and profits realized did
not pay per cent. upon the investment.
A leading western road last year lost
$50, 900 on its dining car service. TO

SNOW at New Orleane.

A fall of snow in New Orleans is an
astonishing event. Men would scarcely
be more excited if Clay statue were to
evolve into the crater of an eruptive
volcano. That snow is most wonder
full intoxicant cannot be a matter of
doubt to any impartial or unprejudiced
observer of the antics of Orleanians the
other day. Foremost in the ranks of
the snow drunk was the powerful small
boy-the Bobby of the mansion, the
Mickey of Bank alley. Bobby scraped
from rose bush, lawn and doorstep suf-
ficient snow to make his first SNOWFALL,
and pelted Herewith nurse, coachman
and cook. Mickey scrambled with his
ragged fellows for the meager fall of
snow upon curbstone and pavement.
and as he waited with red shining nose
for the evening papers, he sent up many
a merry shout and SHE'D many whiz-
King SNOWFALL.
AS the fluffy shower began to freckle
the gloomy atmosphere about noon pc
destrians stopped in their mad rush
along the thoroughfares to stand shiver>
ing beneath protecting sheds and gaze
curiously at the snow as thing rarely
seen. Clerks and shopgirls thronged
to windows and showcases and hattened
their noses against the panes to see the
hecks. Upon ST. Charles avenue and
Prytania street one might have thought
from the number of ladies in shawls and
ulsters upon galleries and at windows
that some great procession was passing.
There was quite as much enthusiasm,
nervousness and color.
Not few of the schools and acad-
emies gave their pupils half holiday,
with instructions to see the snow and
take advantage of the opportunity to
study the phenomena pertaining thereto.
There was not enough snow to cause
any fun about the exchange. Eleven
years ago, when the snow fell last, the
Cotton exchange men We're like so many
schoolboys. They rubbed each others
faces with snow, they had SNOWFALL bat
ties, and the stately and bewhiskered
cotton king thought nothing of being
shot through the ear with a globe OF
snowhakes.-New Orleans Times-Demr

Both Changed .rheir Minds.

Two men recently spent an evening
together. One had put in an applica-
ton for divorce from his wife, and the
other expected to be married soon-
Neither one would possibly admit that
the others talk had any influence ON him,
but the next day the man who expected to
be married broke his engagement, and
the one who had put in an application for
a divorce withdrew it and made up with
his wife.-Atchison Globe.
