Died-At the residence of NJ. L. Clay
baugh in Ironton, Mo-, on Friday,
March 8, 1901, Chas. W. DENLY, aged
81 years, eight months and six days
The deceased had been in poor health
for many months, and for some time 1t
has been known that death was not far
distant. The funeral occurred Satur-
day and the remains were inferred In
the Masonic cemetery.
The Kennett Democrat says the green
est snake hunter in all Dunklin county
not be caught by so rank fraud as the
collection agency scheme which was
worked on some of our unsuspectlng
citizens. Perhaps the Democrat doesn't
know Just how green the snake hunters
are. We never for one moment had
an idea that there was any person in
this section so verdant as to be caught
at such a scheme. But it seems that
there was.
Died-At his residence in Irontou,
Mo-, on Wednesday, March IL, 1901,
at 2:55 P. NJ, Thomas Beard, aged 63
years, 2 months and seven days. The
funeral will take place from St. Paul's
Church at 2:30 this afternoon, and the
remains be inferred in the Masonic
cemetery. Mr.. Beard was resident
of Ironton for many years, and was
known oyer the Southeast as miner
and mineralogist. A wife. two sons
and two daughters mourn his decease
To them the sympathy of the whole
community is extended.
The horticultural meeting at the
Academy of Music last Thursday even
ing was not SO largely attended as it
deserved. Fruit culture was, mainly,
the theme of discourse, and very enter
tanning were the talks given by Mr..
Murray, President of the State Horti-
cultural Society; Mr.. Stinson, Director
of the Mountain Grove Experimental
Station; and Maj. Frank Holsinger (of
whom we shall have considerable to
say, later op), of Kansas City, Kansas.
I'm l. Y9,Isia
vocal and instrumental, by home tai
ent. 1t is to be regretted that there
was such ''beggarly array OF empty
benches that evening. Fruit culture
is one thing for which this section is
peculiarly fitted, and the time must
come when every hillside, now given
over to non productive idleness, shall
be beauti6ed in the bloom of the peach.
apple and cherry. Pity that that time
should be delayed through sloth and
inattention.
The A. V. Cornet Band will give a
Concert and Entertainment at the
Academy of Music on next Monday
eveGing-the proceeds to go toward
the purchase of uniforms. 1t is hoped
that every friend of the organization
will he present and partake of an even
ing of enjoyment. 1t is no selfish pur-
pose for which the entertainment is to
be given, but one creditable to spirit
and culture of this section. The REG
IsTER, therefore, feels sure the attend
ance will not leave seat uuoccupled.
