WILDLY INSANE
Henry County Man Murders His Little
Daughter.

|
Clinton Democrat.
James Hayden, living north o
Windsor, was brought to Clinton il
in a pItifully demented state yeeter-
day.
He had been acting quesrIy for
some time Two weeks ago Mrs.
J Hayden sent her little two-Year cd
daughter out of the house ~ u" er-
rand, the child not returning in a
few minutes, the woman sent two
children out to look for it, They met
their father coming from a shallow
brook which flows near their house
and asked him where the baby was
II expect she's drowned" was bis
reply and Fastening back pulled the
child's lifeloss body out of less than
foot of water. He carried it to the
house. The mother noticed cruel
marks upon its throat ard accused d
her husband Of choking it TO death.
His mind was so plainly unbalanced
that nothing further wes dore about
the matter except to watch him
closer. He continued to grow worse
Hallucinations haunted him He
thought they were trying to separate
him from his family, for whom he
proclaimed great affection. Finally
he had to be tied in bed, and Harry
Fewe.l, neighbor, took him to
Windsor for confinement. The au-
thorities there refusing to receive
him, he was brought to Clinton and
placed in a cage in the city prison.
His is the worst case of insanity
seen here in many day. His eyes
are maniacal and bloodshot, his hair
and beard disheveled His clothes
are torn by his struggles. He con-
stently reiterates such sentences as
81 love my family" II want to see
my children" "Why don't they let
me go home" and SO on.

Welcome the Farmers to Town.

Welcome the Farmers to Town.
The following article was clipped
fran an agricultural paper and if
the1 suggestions were acted upon
wen lid benefit Butler the same as
the own mentioned therein:
Men ico, Mo, is live town because
the PED kple of the town are alive and
progress sive. There are many eYi
dences of this, one of the most
recent is the move made by the
merchsEnts to provide suitable free
hitchihg yard for farmers teams
This is to bs enclosed with high.
tight board fence, which will be
wind break and protection from two
legged and four legged pilferers.
Facilities for watering horses will be
provided.
Farmers will doubtless regard this
hospitable provision as meaning that
they are to be welcomed in town by
the Mexico business men. In many
Instances, judging by the almost i'm
passable condition of roads leading
into town, the utter lack of any ac.
commodations for teams, excepting
at the livery stable, or for the men
folks while the women are trading
excepting at the saloons, it would
seem as though country people were
not wanted in towns. We know this
is not the case, but effort should be
made by the town people to make
farmers feel that they have right
and interest in the town.
Why not enlarge upon the Mexico
idea and provide place where a
farmer can take his wife and eat
lunch and one wait while the other
Is trading or transacting business!
Provided with reading matter and a
few simple conveniences. such &C
commodations would cost but little
to maintain and pay the town well.

CRACKSMEN'S BIG HAUL.
Klrksville Savings Bank Looted OF
$4,000, Bends and Currency.


S22, 900, Bends and Currency.
Kirksville, Mo, November IL
One of the boldest and most success
ful burglaries in the history OF the
state, occurred at the savings bank
here between midnight and 3 o'clock
this morning. At the latter hour
watchmau discovered a door opened
aud investigated The lsrEe yaalt
door was found unlocked and open,
the safe was turned on it's side and
silver dollars were scattered around.
The bank officials were aroused and
investigated, when it was discovered
that $4,000 in government bonds
the property OF the president, Samuel
Reed, aud nearly $4,000 in gold and
greenbacks had been taken The
exact amount Of currency cannot be
given yet Before closing the Taalt
last night Bookkeeper Charles Oar
raw, placed package containing
S24OO in currency on some books in
side. This escaped the eyes iof the
cracksmen. The inside safe is a
modern one of fapproved pattern and
supposed to be burglar proof. A
small hole was drilled near the dial
and the tumblers manipulated with
a wire. No explosives were used.
The time was carefully selected be-
tween the arrival of trains, and the
work swiftly and accurately done
when no one was on the streets.
Kirksville has no street lights and
but one night watchman.
The Kirksvile Savings Bank is one
of the oldest and most solid financial
institutions in the county 1t is
capitalized at $4,000 aud did good
business. r. Ii. Ringo, an old ex.
perienced banker, is cashier and
Fred Wilson assistant. Burglar
insurance will nearly cover the less
lacking $1,000 or $4,000 probably.
The bank will continue business
without interruption. The directors
have offered 81 zoo reward.
Every indication points to the fact
that the work was done by expert
enced city craftsmen, who have
probably been around several weeks
getting the lay of the land and
struck their blow for wealth just at
the right time Several suspects
are under surveillance, but no resi-
clue has been obtained

Women Should Know 1t.

Many women suffer untold agony and
misery because the nature of their dis
ease is not correctly understood. They
have been led to believe that womb trou
BILE or female weakness OF some sort is
responsible for the many ills that beset
womankind.
Neuralgia, nervous headache, puffy or
dark circles under the eyes, rheumatism
a dragging pain or dull ache in the back
weakness or bearing-dow sensation,
protuse or scanty supply of urine with
strong odor, frequent desire to pass it
with scalding or burning sensation,
sediment in it after standing in bottle
or common glass for twenty-tour hours,
are signs OF kidney and bladder trouble.
The above symptoms are often attrib-
uted by the patient herself or by her
physician to- female weakness or womb
trouble. Hence, so many fail 70 obtain
relief, because they are treating, not
the disease itself, but a reflection OF the
primary cause, which is kidney trouble.
In fact, women as we'll as men suffer
and are made miserable with kidney and
bladder trouble and both need the same
remedy.
DIR. kilmer's Swamp Root Is the
great discovery of the eminent kidney
and bladder specialist, and is easy to get
at any drug store for soc or one dollar.
