Missouri to the Union


General Sterling Price was 4
Nnginian. The Nirginian seldom
RECEIVERS from his birth. Genera
Price served CALAMITY in the MeXi
can war, was Governor of Missouri
for four years, member of Congress
and held other high official posi-.
tons. His claim to distinction
however, depends largely upon his
services as leader of the boys
who wore the gray. His soldiers
would have died for Old Pal
Price And the likeness of this
noble leader hangs in many Mis-.
souri, homes ana his name is en-.
shrined in the hearts of many
Missourians.
THE greatest engineer of his
generation was Missourian, Cap
tain James Buchanan Eads; his
name will be associated generally
with the first st Louis bridge.
The Missouri State University has
had many loyal friends, but none
was ever more loyal than the brill
liant Columbia orator, Major James
Sidney Rollins. He practiced law
in Columbia and for IA time edited
a newspaper. He served several
terms in the Missouri Legislature
and was twice the Wing candidate
for governor.
Eugene Field occupies Il place
in the list of Missouri immOrtals.
He is, perhaps, the chief contrlbu-
ton which Missouri has made to
literature. He was Il native of the
State and was all his life n news
paper man. 1t was here in Kan
sas City that he first published his
most famous poem, the Little
Peach With an Emerald Hue.
Field was the chlld's poet and
some of his verse is classic. Per-
sonally he was not an angel, but
rather the reverse. He loved the
crratic and the crotlc. He was Il
practical joker. DR.. Gunsaulus, Il
Chicago minister, and Francis
Wilson, the actor, one day had an
argument, according to Field, as
to the relative worth of their pro-
fcSsions. Gunsaulus denounced
Wilson defended, the stage. Fin
ally Wilson said: I try to make
my fellowmen happy and SO do
YOU. Now | claim that my efforts
are more successful than yours.
For two hours every night am
before the public and people go
away happy. Many of these same
people go to hear YOU twice "A
week, and with what result? They
go away miserable as hell.
Edward Bates was Attorney
General in the Cabinet of Presi-
dent Lincoln. He had been Il
prominent figure in the contest for
the Presidency. Colonel AleXan-
der w. Doniphan led an cXpedi-
ton to New Mexico, which deserv-
cs place as one Of the greatest
achievements in military history.
The apostle of free silver, the
great Missouri COmmOncr, Richard
Parks Bland, was the foremost fig
urc for years in ii struggle for hi
metallism. Fearless, honest, rug
ged, he was held i'll high personal
esteem, even by those who diSa-
greed with him in his political OF
financial views. Enoch NJ. Mar
vim, bishop of the Southern Meth
odist church, probably touched
more men religiouSly than any
other Missourian.
These are the ten most famous
Missourians. Five statesmen, two
soldiers, an engineer poet and Il
preacher. Eight of the ten died
practically penniless and not one
was rich in the ordinary accept

An Appeal Sustained.

The Supreme court has reversed
the judgment of the Circuit court 10
the case of Debby Risinger, as
Admirx appeallant vs.. the Southern
Railway Co, respondent, and the
case has been remanded for a new
trial. Messrs. Efrd & Dreher rep
resented the appellant and Messrs.
B. L. Abney and E NJ. Thomson the
respondent. This was an appeal
from the decision of Judge james
Aldricb, granting non suit On the
grounds, first, that there was no
evidence tending to show that the
said open space was travelled place;
second that the rapid running Of
train per Sc, is no evidence of negli-
gence, and third, that the leaving of
a car upon the side track was not
evidence of negligence.
