Noted Boone County Lawyers.

In delivering the address of well
come to the Missouri Bar Association
i'm the University auditorium last
Friday, n. II. Gentry took occasion
to speak in complimentary terms of
some of the lawyers of this county.
He referred to the fact that this has
been the home of such able and dis
tinguished lawyers and judges as
JnO. F. Philips, Philemon Bliss,
Alexander Martin, David Todd, John
Hinton, Jas. s. Rollins, Sinclair
Kirtley, OdOn Guitar, the Gordons
and the Turner'S. At the bar banquet
on Saturday evening, Judge Philips
took up the same theme and eulogiz-
ed the same men, paying a high trib-
ute to that soldier, lawyer, statesman
and orator, Gen. Guitar. 1t Is hardly
necessary to say that these remarks
were followed by the most pronounce
ed applauSe.

CHILDREN.

1t is said that man would be lit
tie better than a savage but for
woman. With equal truth we may
assert, both men and women would
be hard and selfish beings but for
children. These call out and refine,
and soften the best feelings of the
parental heart. Their little needs
are so many, and their simple
innocence so affecting, and their
very caprices so winning, that
love and attention flow out of
them almost instinctively. That
must be a hardened nature which
can be unmoved by the soft touch,
and playful childishness, and
hundred little pranks of baby.-Ex.

Capt. Smoke May Accept.

Prof. John l.. Gerig, now at the
Nebraska University, sends the
Statesman a copy of the Daily Ne
braskan, containing this item of in
terest to Columbians:
Again the University of Nebraska
has been called upon for one of it's
instructors. 1t is hoped, however,
that Captain Smoke will not accept
the offer from Yale. While the stu
dents of the University are happy to
hear of the recognition of their COM
mandant, yet they would be equally
sorry to lose so efficient an officer.
In his short service at the head of
the military department he has won
the deep respect of every cadet and
student with whom he has come I'm
contact. From feeling of apathy
in military affairs Captain Smoke
has brought about an intense inter-
est on the part of the students and
has raised very noticeably the stand
ard of the department"

ERRONEOUS JUDGMENT IN YOUTH.

Young people are apt to think
that every one who does not know
what they happen to have been
taught, is ignorant; everything
they happen not to have learned,
is useless; everything that is not
the custom Of the society in which
they happen to have moved, is
vulgar; every one who does not
like what they happen to like, has
bad taste; every one who does not
feel what happens to affect them,
has no heart; every one who is
not employed as they are, wastes
his time; every one who does not
conform to their estimate Of right,
has no conscience; every one
whose opinions are not like their
own or their mammals, is mis-.
taken.-Ex.

Norton on Christian Science.

Washington, May 25.-Mr. Carol
Norton, in a lecture delivered before
large audience in the Columbia
Theater to-day, asserted that 2,0OO,-
600 cases of disease have been heal
ed by Christian Science during the
thirty-five years of it's history and
that in that time about 700 Christian
Science churches have been estab-
lished and are now flourishing.
He said that Christian Science is
not faith cure, mind cure nor mes
merism, but that it heals the sick
only through scientific under
standing of mans relation to God.
In his contention for right thinking
and proper models of thought, he
declared that it should be made
criminal to publish the details of
crime or of contagious diseases be-
cause of the effect of such publica-
ton on health and morals.

some poor boys could be doing
what they are paid to do and work
their way through school. I'm
goin' over to see Dockery in day
or two and. I'm goin' to tell him
thing or t wo. Maybe they won't
sound so nice but they'll sound
about as nice as they look and I'm
goin to tell 'em any way. Bat all

"By the way" said the clerk,
"what do you think of them nomi-

"Well, l think he's mighty

"Do you think he'd make

the clerk.
"Well, I know one thing" said
the old soldier, "he would do lots
better than some NV them that's on
there now."
"Well guess it is hard to please
every one when you are on board
like that" said the clerk.
eyes it is when you have got the
party behind you," said the old
soldier.
"What do you mean by that"
said the clerk, "surely you don't
mean that politics has anything to
do with things out there"
"That's what I said," said the
old soldier. "Politics is the cause
NV all this trouble that's been out
there for the past four or five
years and it is still playing big
hand"
"Well | don't understand that"
said the clerk when the same party
has been in power almost ever

men amt been in Office all the time,
you see. Page wuz at the head NV
that school for nigh onto twenty
years and got along alright till the
political pot begun to bile in the

out a little. Then the trouble be-
gun. You see Page wuz good
hand to work the legislature and
al'us got more money to run that
school than most folks thought he
could git, so some NV the party
bosses thought it would be good
thing to get Page to write letter
and put it in the papers shown
what the party had done for that
school and right here is where
Page baked on 'em. Then the
party bosses begin to sour on him
and some of 'em said he had been
at that school long en- ough and jes'
KEEP after him til he jes' had to 60.
you see Lon Stephens didn't like
Page much to begin with and when
he got to be governor he put the
rollers under him. He found it a
big job though, but Page had to go
jest the same and ever since then
politics has had a heap to do with
them 'p'intments out there. And
when a fellow gifts job out there,
he is kinder given to understand that
"if he don't eat the kings meat he
can't live." You see that's what
keeps them white men out there.
