Kansas City. Aug. 2e.-Once more there IS
talk Of a new head for the Armour family.
Kirkland B. Armour. the present titular
head. arrived in Kansas City this morning
his appearance confirming all the bad news
that had been sent from his sickbed at
Watkins Glen, n. Y. The journey had been
made to Kansas City in a private car.
Colonel ]. ID. Griffith. the family physi-
clan. had been telegraphed for three days
previously He came with Mr.. Armour.
Charles W. Armour was at the Grand av-
enue depot. a little substation. where the
private car was cut of. and assisted in

The attendants declared "Mr. Armour Is
merely indisposed and will be all right in
a day or two" But no newspaper men were

1t was clearly evident that Mr.. Armour's
mental faculties were bright enough. but no

was anywhere nearly so sick as he is.

eff prosperity enter into a village,

Peace and harmony are the greatest
promoters of booms and prosperity"
The above is from the Capac Journal
and is only too true. Every town has
its green-eyed monsters who cannot
bear to see others prosper, nor can they
so manage their own affairs to gain
wealth and the good graces of decent
people. The sweets of this life come
from the filth and dirt they grovel in.
The sooner such people are trans
ported the better town is off.
