A NOBLE ACT.

There are many wealthy men in
this country whose names will not be
remembered by the comrning genera.
tons, although they are today con-
siderded by the masses as the big
bugs in the human puddle. The late
Charles. d. Eitzen, of Gasconade
county, Missouri, who left an estate
worth $500. 900 in clean cash, is
pleasing exception to the general rule.
After dividing many thousands of his
money equally among his relations
both in this country and in Germany,
in his will he gives to the county of
Gasconade $4,000 to build a new
court house; to the city schools of
Herman, the county seat, $4,000 the
interest on which to pay teachers
salares; to provide iron seats for the
city park $500; to the Evangelical
the Catholic church, and
the Methodist church, $1,000 each;
and to the Masonic lodge $1,000. The
$50 500 spent for the public good of
thai town will build monument, that
will last while the names of other
aye, thousands Of million
airs are lost In oblivion.

How Did She Know.

Friend DEMOCRAT:
VIII you allow me TO lay IN my
troubles for the winter?
I was husking corn some time ago
and as I went to a shock of corn a
poIe-cat came out and told me to
leave there; said to him / was going
to husk that shock of corn; he said |
should not, for it was his house. I
told him I was the biggest and I would
husk it; he said he was there first and
had a preemption. [ told him [
would bet him dollar that | would
husk it. He said he had no dollar
but he would bet scent, and he put
up the bet, and good strong scent
it was. I got full value. So [ struck
him a skite with a stick and stepped
back for breath and stumbled over
a corn stub and fell down.
While I was down he had things
all his own way for while, but when
[ got up [ made him repent, and
when the battle was over one OF US
was hanging up in a peach tree; L
could not tell from the smell which
,ne of us it was, for we smelled so
much alike.
But I husked that shock of corn all
he same.
Then when | went home to dinner
ny wife accused me of being in bad |
company. How do you think she
ound it out? I had not told her.
Your Friend.

On Tuesday and Thursday Of last
week the farmers in the neighborhood
of Heller banded together and started
out on wolf hunt. Tuesdays hunt
resulted in waterhaul. On Thursday
about 100 men were out in the gang.
One long, hungry. scrawney chicken
thief was scared up and started in the
direction of apparent humiliation, but
in some manner slipped through the
crowd and escaped. While no wolves
were killed, the boys say a jolly time
was enjoyed. Another hunt was ar
ranged for Tuesday of this week. but
we have not yet heard of the result.
