A Millsr's Close Call.

a. F. Owen, the senior proprietor
Of the Keytesville Roller mills, had q
narrow escape from drowning last
Saturday.
Mr. Owen and his son, c. F., were
engaged in removing some drift
wood, which had collected above the
mill-dam, when one OF the iron hooks
Mr.. Owen was using slipped off OF a
log he Was pushing along In the
water. and seeing that he would fall
into the creek, Mr.. Owen attempted
to jump into a small boat near by.
He failed to alight 10 the boat. how
ever, and fell against the edge and
painfully hurt his breast which came
violently in contact. with the points
OF a couple of protrudIng spikes that
had been used in mailing on the oar
locks. The force of the blow knock
ed the breath out OF Mr.. Owen, and
it was with great difficulty that he
held onto to the edge Of the boat,
and finally managed to reach the
shore. One of the SPIKES inflicted q
wound about three inches long in his
breast.
Mr.. Owen has received a good
many knocks and bruises in working
around the mill since he took charge
OF il, but by a free use Of turpentiDe
and the consolation OF his good wife
he has escaped without serious in
jury so far.

p. e. Holland Acquitted.

1t seems from the account given
by the Brunswick papers, that the
COURIER wns misiniormed in regard
to the disposition of the case before
q u. s. commissioner, a. Kansas
City, against p. E. Holland a
Brunswick merchant. who was ar
rested about three weeks ago by
Deputy u. s. Marshal James
Busby, of wakends, Carroll coun-
ty, for having neglected to cancel
the government stamps on one or
two empty cigar boxes.
A reliable citizen, OF Brunswick,
told US that the fine and costs i'm
posed upon Mr.. Holland, amounted
to about $50, but according to all
the Brunswick papers Holland was
acquitted after the commissioners
had fully Investigated the merits OF
the case, and Was convinced that the
prisoner had no intention OF violat-
ing the internal revenue laws oil
Uncle Sam.
1t is probable that the cases
against j. Y. Mitchell and Chas.
Hopf, two other Brunswick mer-
chants, who were also arrested by
Busby on somewhat similar
charge, will h- dirm'ssed as they
ouc ht 70 no. NJ ho fair-minded u. :.

stances, wuuiJ convict them.
Busby must have known as much
and, in our opinion, he should be

JsdEs Salisbury IN Ksytssvills.

Judge Lucius Salisbury and his
good wife, now OF Kenton, Ohio, paid
q visit TO their old friends, in Keytes-
vile, the latter part OF last week,
looking well and hearty.
The Judge 10 an old-time resident OF

with Mr.. VIM. E. Hill when they were
both young men, and we're making
their start" in .he world. They
had come west from Yankeedom Ito

right well did they succeed. No two
young men that ever started in this
county showed more energy in bus.
iness pursuits than they. They did
business together from 1S4S 1852,
inclusive. Mr. Hill. remained a
fixture in Keytesville, while Judge
Salisbury, few years previous to
our late war, bought land and open
ed up farm on the prairie where the

Mr Salisbury was first honored
with a seas on the county court
bench and was subsequently, elected
three times to the legislature. A few
years since he trsded his farm which
comprised a large aud valuable tract
of land, in Bee Branch township, for
n farm in Ksnton county, Ohio.
where he has since lived. Wehelieve,
however, he still hss "a longing to re-
turn to- Missouri.
He hopes that "a test, soon to- be
made, will RESULT in n valuable find
OF cosl-oil on his farm. Should this
be the case, he will have no trorble
in selling at good figures, in which
event we look for his speedy return
to- his old Charlton county home,
where everybody will oa glad to
welcome him and his family.

They Quoted Scripture.

Circuit Clerk Ill. b. Richardson
made IA business trip to Salisbury,
Tuesday. He tells a good yarn on
Attorneys A. W. johnson and C. c
Hammond. who had q scripture
quoting match in a decidedly sensa-
tioual case that was tried by jury in
Mayor Emmerich's court, at Sails
bury, on Monday.
Mr.. Johnson appeared for the city
and Mr.. Hammond for the defend
ant, who was charged with disturb.
ing the peace OF two or three disrep-
utable women. As Mr.. Hammond's
scriptural quotations were more ap-
propriate to the occasion than Mr..
Johnson's, and succeeding, too, in
proving a clear alibi for his client,
the defendant was triumphantly ac-
quilted.
the courtroom was crowded with
sensational-loving spectators, among
whom there was quite scramble for
front seats, in obtaining which men
with silvery locks and bald-headed
men were eminentIy most successful.
1t is a profound mystery to many
when and where Attorney Hammond
learned so much scripture, but his
apt application OF holy writ to such
case as he had last Monday proves
him to be no ''slouch" in bibisal lore,
and the success he has just scored
places him IN the front as Sslisbury's
latest hero.

Weekly Weather-Crop Bulletin
July %, 1895.

The following is a synopsis of the
weather-crop bulletin issued by the
Missouri weather service for the week
ending July Goth:
Although on several days the
weather was oppressively hot aud
sultry, the mean temperature OF the
week was very near the normal 10 all
sections. The precipitation was de-
cidedly in excess of the normal over
the northern portion of the state,
the total for the week at many sta
tions exceeding 4 inches, and from
1 to 3 inches is reported from sta
tious in the central counties, but in
the southern sections the rainfall
was generally light.
In most of the northern counties
4 lts are about all cut and In come
olstricts hsying is nearly completed,
but in a number of counties work
was stopped by the heavy rains
and hay and grain considerably dam
aged. Corn and orchards were also
injured to a considerable extent in
few localities by high winds, and
some damage by the overfiowing of
streams Is reported in Harrison and
Livingston counties.
In the central portion of the state
the raiLs appear to have been very
local, and, while in some localities
but little farm work could be done,
and much grain is still in the fields
and in bad shape, in others stacking,
threshing and haying have progress
ed fairly we'll. High winds and hail
did much damage to crops in Wash
ington county and come damage is
also reported in a few other local
tiles.
In the southern counties the week
was generally dry and stacking,
threshiDS and haying have progress
ed favorobly.
The conditions have been excellent
for corn and that crop promises a
phenomenal yield. Early corn is
coming in roasting ear. All other
growing crops are also doing well,
although there has been u little too
much rain for cotton, and in few
counties there is complaint that po-
tatoes are rotting.
Gate are generally turning out well,
though in some counties badly dam
aged by wet weather. Some farmers
are feeding the sprouted wheat to
hogs.
Fruits, as a rule, continue in good
condition with the exception that
grapes are rotting badly in some
counties.
