BECAME CONSCIENCE STRICKEN
Thief Reimbursed Men From Whom
He Stole at Macon.

MACON, Mo-, July 1s.-Some con.
science : stricken mortal has been
astonishing certain Macon county
citizens with drafts for the last ten
days.
Grandson Goodson, president OF the
New Cambria Bank, received s25; ].
W. Gilleland, OF the La Crosse, re-
ceived s25, and a merchant here who
did not want his name divulged drew
$50 out OF the conscience fund. 1t is
said others have received checks from
the same source.
Mr.. Goodson said during the veal
1895 he was working in the harvest
field with a number OF hands. He
threw his vest on a fence near some
trees. One of the pockets contained a
sum OF money, the exact amount Of
which he cannot recall. When he put
on bis vest the money was gone,
While having suspicious, he was un'
able to obtain sufficient evidence t
warrant the arrest Of the suspected
party. With the s25 draft that camt
to Mr.. Goodson was the following
note:
Some years ago l took from you an
amount OF money that / do not nov
exactly remember. 1t was a theft
The inclosed draft win Reimburse
you"
There was no name. The lettei
came from Ohio. The others received
almost id~entically the same sort o
notes, and the handwriting was tn
same in each. None Of the recipient
are disposed to quarrel with fortuna
by investigating the mystery.

COLUMBIA, Mo-, July l9.-Elmon
Chitwood, the ~2O-year-old son Of S. A.

with the McCabe-Steen Construction
Company. His wife was Miss Allie
Winston, Of Campbell, Mo, and was
cashier In a store at that place. The
young folks had been sweethearts for
some time and were very anxious to be
married, but the parents Of the girl
objected on account Of the youth Of
both parties, she being but l6 and the
bridegoom-to-be but 19.
The young man tried in vain to get
the necessary license in Missouri,
Illinois and Kentucky, but owing tt
the youth of the applicants was re
fused.
Finally he learned that the State o.
Tennessee set a lower limit on the age
Of suppose discretion, and that h,
could get a license there.
He arranged with his sweetheart t
secure consent from her parents Il
visit relatives in another part of tn,
State, while be announced that he wa
going to Fayette to spend the Christ
mas holidays with his parents. II,
met Miss Winston and they went Il
Dresden, Tenn, where the ceremony
was performed December q, 1902
They both returned to their home
and he continued his visits as in tn
past.
Wishing to visit his father II
Fayette and bring his wife with him
explanations became necessary. Tn
explanations were not entirely salts
factory at first, but the young coupl'
received parental blessings.

CARD FROM S. B. COOK.

To the Editor of the Ledger:
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, July 15-In
your issue of Tuesday you publish a
dispatch sent out from here to the
Republican metropolitan press, stat
ing In substance that l had, after
holding a conference with personal
friends the night previous, decided to
issue a statement Saturday announc-
ing whether or not l would be a can
didate for Governor next year.
The dispatch also vouchsafed the
further information that while it had
been generally supposed that Judge
CAN'T would have the support Of
"Cook and his friends that the soon
ference" threw a new light on the
subject and that "if Cook does not
announce for Governor, he may sup
port Reed"
Ibid not care to notice the dispatch
so long as its publication was confined
to the Republican papers. They pub
lish so many falsehoods concerning
Democrats that intelligent, fair
minded citizens are rarely influenced
or misled by them. But since the
dispatch has been published In a
paper In my home town, 1t is proper
that public attention should be
called to its character and purpose.
First; | shall not announce Satur.
day whether or not / will be a candi.
date for Governor. 1t is none OF the
business Of the Republican newspa'
pers what the intentions Of myself OIL
any other Democrat may be.
Second: / have had no consulta'
ton with friends on this subject.
have not so much as thought OF issu.
ing a statement and consequently nc
friend OF mine has authorized any
such publication.
Third: The statement that Judge
CAN'T would have the support Of
Cook and bis friends'' and later that
"if Cook does not announce, he will
help Reed" is wholly gratuitous and
its purpose so well understood that
attention need only be called to it tt
demonstrate its falsity. My relation:
with all the candidates for Governor
are personally cordial, but this fact
certainly does not justify the publ
cation Of the silly story given out by
partisan Republican newspapers.
1t may be proper for me to say In
this connection that while l am not
unmindful Of the friendly interest
manifested in my behalf by personal
and political friends throughout the
State, 1 have not said to any one that
/ would be a candidate for Governor
next year, or solicited the support Of
any mar or newspaper for that or any
other Office. All that / have said, and
this l repeat now, is that in my
opinion there is yet ample time for
opening the campaign Of 1904; that at
the proper time and In their own reg.
ular way, the Democracy Of Missouri,
proud OF their record and defiant Of
their enemies, would select their
State ticket and carry it to trium.
plant victory. They will do this, too,
with utter indifference to the wishes
of the Republican partisan press Of
the State.
In view Of these facts, there is no
need for any statement from me at
this time and the Republican news
papers will consequently have to re-
sort to some other effort to mislead
the public. SAM b. Cook.

IF you want to push the interests
OF Mexico advertise what you have 70
sell and bring business to this city.
When customers are figuring on buy
ing goods they usually go to the clos
est town, all other things be equal,
but II the citizens OF this city Offer
things worth while and at the proper
price a longer drive viii be taken
gladly to secure them. This is not a
mercenary suggestion altogether, as
advertising is a benefit to newspapers,
merchants, citizens and the city and
county in general.

Letter to Mr.. AIbers,

Dear Sir: Lead and oil is no longer
the paint to be prosperous with.
As everybody knows, lead and oil
chalks or powders of in about three
years--three years is its limit.
Painters are putting a little zinc in
their lead to make it fought lasts a
good three years with a little zinc.
But painters don't like the Job Of
mixing zinc. It's a tedious job, and,
both being white, nobody knows when
the mixing is through. 1t gets half.
mixed; and the paint goes on, a streak
of lead and a streak Of zinc. That ia
not good work.
The mistake made is in trying to dc
by hand what is better done by ma
chinery. Hand-work can't compete
with machine-work.
Devoe Ready Paint is Jour paint,
1t wears twice as long as lead and oil,
This reduces the cost Of keeping a
house well painted to half.
Yours truly,
f. w. DEvoE s. %.

Photograph Astonished the Natives.
Prosecuting Attorney Buckley, with
several Others. was camping on the
Gasconade river not long since. For
their amusementithey took with them
a photograph. It seems that this was
the first machine OF its kind ever
in thatportion Of the great State, and
the natives in that vicinity, and for
fifty miles in every direction, came in
to hear the queer talking box" 1t
appears that quite a number Of the
awed listeners were superstitioas, and
thinking the machine the work Of his
Satanic Majesty, they made an effort
TO destroy it and we're only stopped
when it was taken TO pieces and ex-
planned thoroughly.

REMEDY FOR HAY FEVER.

Prior to the discovery of HyonsI

to a hay fever patient was to go aWaT
from home but now any one who. eE-
poets the disease, can, If Hyomei d
used, stay at home without fear Of The
annual attack of sneezing, water
eyes, and other discomfort.
J. f. Forbes, a we'll known western
railroad man, whose home is at Nc
Cook, Neb., writes, II have never
had relief from any remedy for bay
fever, even temporarily, until | dis
covered the merits Of Hyomei. will
always recommend 1t whenever occs

There is no offensive stomachd oSiHg
when Hyomei is used. It is a rellahR
remedy for the cure Of all diseases q

comes with every outfit, so that tk

Woodbridge s. Purdy, who have us
local agency for Hyomei, advise all wn0
are subject to hay fever TO begin u
use two or three weeks before the tins

frequently, at least half a dozen tlma
daily, and Hyomei Balm should y
rubbed into the nostrils both mornins

The fact that Woodbridge q fuful
agree TO refund the money to any nAl

success, should inspire confidence u
its power to effect a cure.
