heated with warm water. A thin
layer of sugar is first put in, then
layer of leaves, and next another layer
of sugar. The vessel is then filled with
boiling water, which is allowed To per-
colate through the leaves and sugar.
Before serving it is again sweetened
until it becomes almost syrupy, ana
is favored with cinnamon, orange or
lemon juice.
A Chinese legend ascribes the first
discovery of tea to one Darma, man
famed throughout the East for his
religious zeal, who, in order To set an
example of piety to his followers, i'm
posed on himself various privations,
among which was that OF forswearing
sleep. After some days and nights
passed in this austere manner, he was
overcome and involuntarily fell into
deep slumber On awakening, he was
so distressed at having violated his
vow that he cut off his eyelids, that
there could be no more chance OF his
closing his eyes. On returning to the
spot next day he found that the eye
lids he had thrown upon the ground
had changed into a shrub, the like of
which he had never seen before.
Plucking some of the leaves and
chewing them, he found his spirits
greatly eXhilerated, and his former
vigor so greatly renewed, that he re-
commended the wly-discovered
boon to his people, from whom it
soon spread to all mankind.
Tradition, on the other hand, never
at a loss for some marvellous story,
claims that the use of tea was first
discovered accidentally, in China, by
some Buddhist priests who, unable TO
use the brackish water near their tenn
Pile, stepped in it the leaves of shrub
growing in their vicinity, with the
intention of correcting its unpleasant
properties. The experiment was so
successful that they Informed the
inhabitants of their discovery, and the
tea plant was subsequently cultivated
expressly for that purpose. Another
story attributes its discovery to
Chinaman named Chin Nung, about
2737 b. c., who, while replenishing
fire made of the branches of the tea
plant, let some of the leaves fall into
the vessel in which he was boiling
water for his evening meal. Upon
drinking this water, he found it so ex-
hilarating in its effects that he con-
tinued to. use it, and impaired the
knowledge thus gained TO others Of
his cOuntrymen.
The first positive allusion to tea was
made in the fourth century of the
Christian era. But as fables as to the
discovery of iron, glass, and many
other useful articles are accepted as
facts, there is no reason why fables
relating - the discovery of tea may
not be accepted also. AT any rate,
it has now become necessity in many
lands, and a luxury to all peoples.

THE CASE OF ROSEHILL.
A RumOr that he is to Lose His
Position.

Captain Rosehill, the night
clerk at the Police Station, has, to
all appearances, placed his tenure
of office III rather precarioussposi-
ton. This was done, it is said, by
his assault on Arthur Wilder few
nights ago, when the latter was
arrested for fast driving.
An attache of the police depart
ment said, last evening, when
asked about tie affair:
" 1t is generally known in police
circles that when the Marshal
comes back, RosehilI will lose his
position. He is a man who has
few or no friends IL the service,
and it is well known that he has
been called down on several oc-
casions for his actions when behind
the rail at the sta alton. / have
known him, several times, to strike
men who have bees arrested on
some petty charge, and, as he is
behind the counter, he can do it
with impunity, ae he cannot be
reached"
As a result Of the fracas os the
other evening, Capt. Andrews had
a warrant served on him yesterday
at the instigation of Geo. Cavanagh
for assault and battery. Whether
Rosehill will be proceeded against
or not is at present not known, but
several people are trying to per-
suade Wilder 30 prosecute him. If
he does, Rosehill may not be con-
victed, but he will at least learn
that, even though a man is unlucky
enough to have been arrested, be is
not necessarily to be made punch
ing bag of for the amusement of
a police clerk.

The fact Of there being two John
Youngs on the tax-assessor's roll
was Q cause of serious embarrass-
neft to one of them yesterday.
He had paid his taxes, but the
other one had not, and a warrant
had been issued for his arrest. The
wrong Young was brought in, but.
when he produced his receipt, the
matter was adjusted to his salts

GRAND BIOLOGICAL DISPLAY
Ringing Brothers Menagerie, the
Largest and Finest in the
World.

Among the educational features
of Ringling Brothers Worlds
Greatest Shows. which exhibit in
Kirksville Tuesday May s, especial
attention has been given to the
menageric, which now embraces
the largest collection of rare wild
animals ever brought to this coun-
try. Ringling Bros. menagerie is
memorable this year from the fact
that it contains large number of
animals that have either become
almost entirely V extinct in their
native state. or which are so valua-
BILE as to preclude the possession
of specimens of other amusement
enterprises. This is true of the
giant giraffe owned and exhibited
by this great show. This curious
animal is the only representative
of its species in the United States,
and nowhere else in this country
can the strange cameleopard be
seen. This towering beast is over
eighteen feet high, and is undoubt-
edlv the tallest animal that lives.
Another rare wild beast embraced
in Ringling Brothers menagerie is
the gigantic four-ton hippopota-
mus. the heaviest beast in captivi-
ty and the only genuine blood-eX-
uding behemolh now in this coun-
try. Ponderous and unwieldy as
he is, the great hippopotamus is
an intelligent brute, capable OF in
instruction, and many of the tricks
he performeS at the command of
his keeper, are astounding. The
mammoth dens and cages used to
exhibit Ringling Brothers menag-
cries are the largest, handsomest
and most beautifully decorated of
any circus in the world, and those
who have seen them this season
are unqualitiedin in their expressions
of admiration.

In MeInorian.

Whereas it has pleased God III
his providence to remove from us
by death Fannie Cragg, one of our
Sunday School scholars.
Therefore be it resolved by this
school that while we would meekly
bow to the will of our Heavenly
Father. we can but mourn the loss
of one so young, whose life might
have been so useful as an example
to her companions. But while we
mourn, it is not as those without
hope. For we are confident that
though we are deprived of her
society in our Sunday School she
has gone to be q learner in the
shining courts above under the
more direct teaching of Him she
learned to love on earth.
Resolved that we urge upon all
our young pupils the great necessi-
ty of initiating her example by
giving their hearts and lives to
Jesus, thereby giving timely heed
to that scriptural injunction-"Re-
member thy Creator in the DAYS of
thy youth. y
Resolved that we would use this
occasion to impress upon the
minds of teachers the great i'm
portance of so presenting Bible
truths as to give it personal APP
plication, that thereby all may
seek an interest in the blood of
Christ.
Resolved that we would extend
to the family of this our beloved
scholar our sympathy, praying
that they and we may so live that
when we are called we may be also
ready and be permitted to meet
with her who has only gone be
fore.

If Il contractor can take the
material purchased by the city
council at the prices paid for it by
the council, and put in the water
works plant at a profit, it is
evident that the council paid too
much for the material, or there is
a hidden rake Off for the man who
is regularly in the business that
city councils know nothing about
when they go into the business of
building water works. 1t may be
| said that there is nothing in it fol

GOOD NEWS!
The 0. O. & X. c. Management
Decide to put another Pas
Senger Train on their
Road.

Nearly year ago began the eff
fort to induce the management of
the o. X. line TO put another pass
enger train on their road, one that
would arrive here not later than
| 10 O'Clock a. m., and deliver the
st. Louis mail as early as it was
received at Lancaster. Memphis
and other points north of here.
The work of accomplishing this
was undertaken by B. H. Lowen-
stein who has worked necessarily
since for a better mail and paSsen-
ger service for Kirksville. Last
Monday it was announced that
Theodore Gilman, of New York
and W. w. Jacobs. of Hartford,
Conn, in company with o. Is.
officials, would arrive in Kinks
vile at l O'Clock Tuesday after
noon. and confer with the citizens
in regard to additional train
service.
The party arrived by special
train at L O'Clock Tuesday after
noon. and was met at the depot
by B. H. Lowenstein, and his re-
ception committee.
| The committee and visitors took
carriages and were conveyed to
| POOLS Hotel where dinner was
[ served. After dinner the trustees
and a large representation of the
leading business men assembled
in the Hotel parlorS. Hon. S. Nj.
Picker was called on for speech,
and after a few remarks that put
the entire audience in good
humor, he proceeded to present
the claims of Kirksville fora better
service. Other speakers in be-
half of Kirksviile were F. NJ.
Harrington, Capt. W. ID. SigleI
and L. c. Sigler. After the
speakers in behalf of KirkSville
had been heard, MeSSrS Gilman
! and Jacobs spoke for the bond
holders. They stated that the
road had been run at loss to the
bond holders, and they were try
ing to devise means to increase the
revenues. With them the extra
train was matter of dollars and
cents, but they felt very kindly
toward the people of this part of
! Missouri, and would do every
thing possible for them. They
are excellent business gentlemen
and appreciate the attitude of our
people toward theiriroad. H. Rick
er, one of the largest bondholders
in Quincy, and c. H. Bull, of same
, place, who has been identified with
the road from the beginning also
spoke favorably for an extra train.
The meeting then adjourned and
after a drive about the city the
visitors were returned to theil
train and continued their journey
; westward. They were met with
an ovation at every station, and
before they returned had concluded
to give the people the train service
desired, and the extra train will
be put on in very short time.
) The train will leave Quincy
about Z O'Clock and arrive here
about 10 a. IN. bringing the st.
7 Louis morning papers seven hours
| in advance of their present arrival.
) The passenger train that now
arrives at $50 Will stay here ovel
night and return to Quincy next
, morning.
