To the Members of the F. & L. U.

THOMPSON, Mo-, April 5.-There
seems to be a desire on the part of a
number of the old members of the
F. & L. U. to meet and consult with
each other about trying to revive the
organization, and I was asked to call
on all members of the f. g. L. U. to
meet in Mexico at the Court House on
the third Saturday, April goth, at 10
O'Clock a. m. sharp, and / insist that
all the members who feel an interest
in the existence of the only organiza-
ton that has the interest of the farm
ers for its only object meet with each
other on the above date. Many OF
the old differences have passed away
and new ideas have come among us
that merit our careful consideration.
Our organization has been a power
for good. l expect we have made
some mistakes, yet there is net
an organization with as large a mem
bership that has made as few as we
have. So come and let us give it a
push. /. j. SIMS,

HARLAN GETS TEN YEARS.
Judge Hockaday Wept After Sentenc-
ing the Ex-Representative, His
Old Friend.

FAYETTE, Mo-, April4.-After being
out % hours the jury in the Harlan
murder case returned a verdict of
murder in the second degree and as
sessed Harlan's punishment at ten
years in the penitentiary. The pris-
oner received the verdict cody, and
when Judge Hockaday asked him if
there was any reason why sentence
should not be passed OF him he arose
and made a very feeling talk. He
scored the prosecution, claiming that
they had not treated him fairly in the
matter of furnishing bail. He had no
words of condemnation for the jury,
saying they yer all young men, and
he believed they did what they
thought was right.
1t was very trying on Judge Hocka-
day to pass sentence on the prisoner,
Both are residents of the same county,
and have known each other intimately
for many years. Harlan was Judge
Hockaday's first client, and when the
former was a member of the State
Legislature from Galloway county the
two advised together. Judge Hocka-
day said it was a sad duty he had to
perform, but the prisoner had been
given a fair and impartial trial, and
there was no alternative. After passing
sentence he shook hands with Harlan.
and babe him good-by while the tears
trickled down his cheeks. A stay OF
20 days was granted the prisoner, he
to remain in jail here pending a mo-
ton for a new trial. Harlan is "a years

Suppose a Burmese husband and
wife quarrel and determine to sepa-
rate. The wife-who always does all
the marketing-goes out and buys two
little candles of equal length, which
are made especially for this use. She
brings them home. She and her hus-
band sit down on the floor, and light
them simultaneously. One candle
stands for him, the other for her. The
one whose candle burns out first rises
and goes out of the house forever,
with nothing but what he OF she may
have on. The one whose candle has
survived the longest, even by a second
takes every thing. SO the divorce and
division of the property-if you car
call that n divisional are settled.

Nothing Less Than Nasty.

FROM the LOUISVILLE courier jour MAI.
4 woman and two men who posed
in a New York theater in a covering
of bronze paint have been arrested
for outraging public decency. In
spite of the plea that the exhibition
purely artistic-or, as the young
woman expressed it, cart from the
ground up''-the wonder is that the
police have delayed action so long.
People who crowd into a theater to
see "bronze statuary' OF ''living pic
lures" are not artists, and such exhi-
billions are not intended to appeal to
the artistic sense. They r solely
meant to crafty a taste for indecency,
and are vicious and d~emoralizing in
every respect. No IL objects to
artists having models any more than
to physicians being furnished subjects
for dissection, but the student pursues
his anatomical researches in the
privacy of studio or class room.
More harm has been done the stage
by IL ese purient exhibitions during
the past year than "a be counter
acted by a generation of the consci-
eutious work of actors like Jefferson
and Booth.

An Original Idea.

To the Editor of the Ledger.
THOMPSON, Mo-, April 6.-What a
brilliant idea is that of Gov. Stones
that asks this revised defunct legisla-
ture to enact a statutory law to make
the lobbyist register and tell on what
'spints'' he proposes to use these dis
tinguished Missouri statesmen. If the
Lord had only made a similar law and
required the devil to register before
he lobbied with Eve, what q vast
amount of evil would our race have
missed. But Stone was not there. He
was yet in the dust of old "Kaintuck''
and Columbus hadn't discovered
"Ameriky." There being no limit
now to their per diem they can stay
all the summer and play second fiddle
to Growers called session and the tax
payers of Missouri will pay the fiddler
and the lobby will take the cake.

Memorial.

In honor of my friend, Cora S. Lupe,
who died March %, 1895.
From the budding and the blooming
of the flowers the sweetest and the
pretties are first plucked. SO God, in
His infinite wisdom and intelligence of
selection, has plucked from our midst
one of the most beautiful and rarest
of human flowers that ever bloomed
forth a soul, SO filed with all those
beauties of character that attract the
love of the human heart and the devo-
ton of friends.
Cora is in heaven, but the memory
of her will cling to us like the love of
Christ ellngs to the sinner. 1t will be
to us as the model of purity and
beauty-one picture of heaven-the
home of our friend.
We grieve with the stricken family,
but "the Lord is good" and "all will
be we'll" A FRIEND.
