MEXICo's celebration of the
Fourth, in charge of the local lodge
OF the Modern Woodmen of Ameri-
ca, was a success Notwithstanding
the drawbacks in the way of rain
and absence of excursionists due to
the stoppage of trains. The pro.
gramme was carried out to the let.
ter and everything advertised was
given. The display of fire. works at
night was the most gorgeous sight
of the kind ever seen in this city,
and tut for the inclemency of the
weather during the day everything
else would have been on as grand a
scale. The Modern Woodmen
Camp of this city, while yet young,
is in a tlourlshing condition and is
growing in numbers weekly.

That Bug,

The chinch bug question is again
becoming a serious one. Some OF
the farmers who have tried the in.
fected bugs on their crops did not
meet with much success. Others
claim that they do the work and
have sent for more.
Recently J. N. Basket, OF this
city, and Jesse Carter, who lives 8
miles west of here, sent to Columbia
for some infected chinch bugs and
turned them among the bugs on Mr.,
Carter's place. The experiment was
a decided success. The bugs have
died by the thousands and continue
to die and can be scraped from the
ground with a stick. This is very
encouraging. and it would be vel
for all the farmers TO try the infected
bugs on their fields and those who
have given the experiment a trial,t
try again. Nothing else smaller
than a flood will kill them.

Elk Lick Springs.

Mr.. James A. Snyder, of this
city, has made contract with j.
H. Rector, the proprietor of Elk
Lick Springs, Pike County, Mis-
souri,, to take charge of this WELL
known summer resort and conduct
it during the season and perhaps
longer. Mr.. Snyder will still make
Mexico his home, though he expects
to manage the hotel this season,
lasting perhaps two or three months.
Elk Lick is a home-like pleasant
place and is extensively patronized
by pleasure-seekers from all over
the country, especially by st. Louis,
Hannibal and Quincy people. The
hotel will comfortably accommodate
one hundred guests and has all the
modern conveniences, including hot
and cold baths. The waters of Elk
Lick are spoken of by all patrons
in the highest terms. There is nc
prettier spot in Missouri than this
resort. Mr.. Snyder is an exper'
fenced hotel man and will keeI
everything in first-class style.

\ Few Harness Horse Notes.

AT Titfin, Ohio, on June 2S, Joe
He, the Fulton horse, paced second
to Pieron the first heat in 2:1S1a
and the next heat was distanced in
2:l5la. Pieron won the race in
straight heats.
The Fulton Sun says: W. W.
Sims received a telegram from James
W. Sims at Windsor, Ontario, say
ing Joe He won second money.
Time: 2:114, 2:O9i4, 2:1Ola.
The Milwaukee correspondent OF
Clark's Horse Review says: Mon,
bars and Rowdy Joe did some tall
pacing here to day in the 2 40 class,
and the much-touted Missourian
was good second in every heat the
slowest of which was paced in
'2:17la.
AT Fulton, H., July 5, Harry
Pennington lost his first race this
season, but took a record OF 2:15ia
in one OF his two winning heats. The
Montgomery Standard corrects the
LEDGER as to his sire and says
Harry is by a son of Aaron Penning-
ton. Wallace's 1892 Year Book in
the racing summaries gives him as
by Aaron Pennington. Clark S
Horse Review of recent date prints
a full page picture of Harry and
says he is by Aaron Pennington. No
matter who is his sire, be is Mis-
souri, bred horse and one of the best
If not the best-out this season.
He has thus far cut his record 12
seconds from last year and will
further lower it before the racing
season is over.
Last June, Dick Crawford brought
his twelve months old child, suffering
from infantile diarrhoea, to me. 1t
had been weaned at four months old
and being sickly everything ran
through it like water through a sieve.
| gave it the usual treatment in sucn
cases without benefit. The child kept
growing thinner until it weighed but
little more than when born, or per-
haps ten pounds. I then started the
father to giving Chamberlain's Collie.
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. Be-
fore one bottle of the 25 cent size had
been used, a marked improvement
was seen and its continued use cured
the child. Its weakness and puny
constitution disappeared and its fa-
ther and myself believe the child's
life was saved by this Remedy. J. T.

WAS As GREEN Az GRASS,
sam Marri>' First Experience in This
Conn'ry ON the faurih or July
lie Was a Regular Haba-
Everybody Guyed Him.

Sam Morris says he first landed
in this country at New York on the
Fourth day of July, 1876. He knew
nothing about Americas independ'
ence day and especially was he
ignorant of the fact that the whole
nation was celebrating the ,,one
hundredth anniversary of liberty the
day he stepped on American soil.
Sam says in all his life he never
heard such a roaring of cannon and
saw SO many people acting like they
were crazy. He inquired Of a fellow
passenger the cause of all the racket
and was told, in a matter-of-fact
way, it was because their ship had
arrived safely in port. Sam says
he believed it, but thought thun-
dering of a fuss was being made
over little thing like that. He went
over to Philadelphia shortly after
ward and there saw thousands of
people at the Centennial again act
ing like they were lunatics. Cannons
were booming and flags flying. He
met his fellow-passenger again who
told him the people were still cele-
brating the arrival of the ship. The
next Fourth of July Sam was in
Chicago and thought they were still
celebrating the arrival of the ship
until'he heard one of his country
men explain why the day was being
observed in such a noisy manner.
Sam is now as patriotic a citizen as
we have in Mexico, but says with
each recurring Fourth he thinks of
that ship when it landed him at
New York.
Sam says when they steamed in
to New York harbor the big warship
Oregon was at anchor with her name
standing out in letters that could be
seen a mile away. There was an
Irishman on board the incoming
ship named Oregon and when he
saw his name on the big United
States vessel he said excitedly,
"Will yez lookl Be jabers, the
O'Regons are all right in this great
country" And Sam says he thought
the ship was named in honor of the
family of the Irishman who was
talking.

It's all settled and Mexico WilI
have a fair. 1t will begin August
% and continue five days. Mexico
"busted up" in the fair business q
few years ago, but that was because
she put on too much style and bad
too much mile track. Even Mexico
has learned something in the schoo
of her unfortunate and expensive ex
perience. We venture that the fail
will be a good one.
