by the score. In 1896 he was candidate for the Democratic nomination for representative and would undoubtedly have secured the nomination had he continued the even tenor of his way and remained in the county. He was a great trader and schemer, and the last Springdale knew of Scott was in May 1896, when his busi- ness took him to Kansas City, Mo Returning through here lone night his wife met him at the depot, and he informed her he was going to Texas on busi- ness but would be back at q certain time. That was the last time she ever saw him, and no one in Springdale ever had any direct knowledge of him until the article below appeared last week in the Post Dispatch. Scott's disap- pearance created considera ble of a sensation as he left behind many unsettled obligations. Rather a feeble effort was made to apprehend him, but nothing ever came of it.
 From the article below there Is no doubt but what the man mentioned is one and the same as our J Howard Scott:

Howard Scott, who six months ago married the hand some and wealthy widow of the late Moses Gott, of Butler County, is missing and his wife has received no tidings of him or message from him since he bade her an affectionate fare well on the morning of April 5.

valuable trott.ng horse DR.. Emery.
owned by orville Leach, from the
stable at the corner OF Lockwood street
and Prairie avenue. in which is also
kept a driving horse belonging to DR..
Charles jacques. OF about the same color
as DR.. Emery. One or more men who
coveted the trotter, which has a record
of zee visited the barn Thursday night
and pred open one OF the windows and
entered the building.
They saw the horse they supposed
was DR.. Emery and going into his stall
led him out. The horses halter M 4
been removed before ii was discovered
that he mas too heavy for the horse
they were looking for. When ne men
saw their mistake. they replaced the
halter In bungling way. and led the
horse back into the stall. They tried
again and this time found the right
animal. DR.. Emery, however does not
take kindly 10 strangers, and is a lively
beast at any time. When approached
he brought mis- heels and teeth into ac-
tive play, and made more noise than
the would-be horse thieves desired. and
they left without the animal.
capt. Costine OF the fifth station was
notified of the attempt and the affair
Is now being closely investigated.
