NONUNION
UNI0NISM
THERE rs NO DOUBT THAT
PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT WILL
NOW BE HAPPY

A union Of non-union men was
temporarily effected last night at
Ranke hall. The meeting was com
prised OF butchers who are now EN-
pIoyed in markets where the boy
cotted Frye-B ruhn meats are sold.
and those working al the company's
slaughter house In the places OF the
butchers who recently went out on
strike.
The temporary organization ef-
fected last night by the non-union
butchers is the most unique union
ever established In this city. Its
aims and objects. its intentions and
declarations are aaid 10 be wonder
full. Although the constitution and
bylaws have not yet been drawn
up, Il IL said that men who are em-
pioyed In markets where Frye
Bruhn meats are not sold viii be
barred from membership In the nom

placed on those who get drunk.
II Is alleged on pretty strong au-
thority that last nights meeting

was so intoxicated he could hardly
keep balanced In hts chair. and that
he was later replaced by some one
else.

The Best Prescription For Malaria


Bonnie Mundy, the ~l0.year-old son
Of Lee Mundy, who lives neal Benton
City, happened TO a very serious accl-
dent Thursday afternoon. He was
playing in a farm wagon at home and
fell out Of the wagon. As he fell he
was caught on a grab hook, the point
OF the hook entering his abdomen and
going into his bowels, making an ugly
and dangerous wound. A doctor was
called and several stitches had to be
taken. The little fellow is resting to-
day rs well as could be expected.
Mr.. Mundy was In Mexico at the
time OF the accident, and his wife:
who was badly frightened, is IN a very
serious condition to-day, suffering from
nervous prostration. Mrs. Mundy's
mother, Mrs. E. E.. Carroll, of this city,
was sent for to-day and went to the
home Of the Mundys.
Mr.. Mundy is one Of Audrain's sub
stantial farmers. He moved here from
Vernon county last spring. We trust
the illness Of his good wife and son
will neither prove fatal.

WERE NOT VERY DETRIMENTAL
Teachers Married in Spite Of superin'
tendent's Proclamation.

MACON, Mo-, August 26.-When it
was announced that the Macon Coun-
ty Teachers's Institute would be held
at Callao this year, Superintendent f.
L. Thompson gave it out that 1t was
intended to be n Of the most bust
neSs-like gatherings Of teachers ever
held in the county, and the ordinary
opportunities for courtships-such as
"moon parties" ice cream socials, hay
rides and other insidious diversions
would be few and far between.
1t was probably in no wise intended
as a mark Of indifference TO the Super
intendent's proclamation that two
marriages took place among the teach
ers in the course of the institute, and
licenses have been issued for another
pair this week. But that is the situa-
tiOn.
The safest nan the county superin-
tendent thought he had among his
instructors was Prof. Henry King,
superintendent of the La Plata pub
lie schools. Yet the institute was
hardly three days old when the Sin
vulnerable pedagogue led to the altar
Miss Maggie Gross, a young music
teacher Of Macon.
Miss Rosa Rush, a young teacher Of
Callao, appeared to be one Of the most
highly interested attendants at the
institute, and manifested some ankle
ty about examination day, which was
10 decide what sort Of a certificate she
should obtain. But before the dread
ed day came Ransom d. Wood came
all the way from Kentucky and pre-
vailed upon her to brighten his home,
instead Of a district school room.
Then Willard England, a well-to-do
young farmer, gave the teachers a hay
ride around his domain one moonlight
night, and when they returned 10 the
lawn be passed around among them a
wagon load Of watermelonS. The first
reported result Of this interesting oc-
casion was a set Of licenses to wed, is
sued to-day to Lena Opel Wright aud
o. L. Cross, both teachers. Superin.
tendent Thompson Is waiting with
trepidation for later returns.

LESS CROWDED.
London Shows Considerable improvement
in the Last Ten Years.

From a report by the statistical Of.
icer Of the London county council
upon the new census returns, it ap-
pears that oYercrowding in the me-
tropolis is decreasing, says the Lon
don Telegraph.
In 1891 there wereS 31, sos persons
living in 1854 tenements Of less
than five rooms. This gives an av-
erage Of 2.99 persons perroOm.
In 1901 there were 726, 096 persons
living in 124,773 tenements Of less
than five rooms. This gives an av.
ersge Of 2.ss persons perrOOm.
Both the amount, therefore, and
the density Of overcrowding in such
tenements appear 10 have been, on
the whole, reduced since 1891, except
in the case Of the borough Of Stepney.
With regard to tenements Of more
than five rooms:
In 1891 there were 1,Ss9,475 per.
sons livingin 30s, 91s such tenements,
thus giving an average Of 6. II persons
per tenement.
In 1901 there were 2,OS6, 752 per-
sons living in 347, SIG such tenements,
thus giving an average Of six per.
sons per tenement.
There appears, therefore, to have
been an increasein thenumber Of ten
ements of more than five rooms, and
an increase in the number Of persons
occupying such tenements, but q de-
crease Of II in the average number
Of persons per tenement. This again
points to a decrease in the prevs.
lence Of oyercrowding since 1891.
I'VE must, however, emphasize the
fact" the housing Of the working
class committee remarks, "that the
results arrived at in this report are
Of a general character, and that the
particular results to be hereafter as
.certained may not in all cases bear out
the general conclusions above noted
as to the decrease Of overeroWding."
A fuller report is in preparation.
