OPENING
OF SCHOOL
The Enrolment 2O7 on
the First Day.

The Laclede public schools opened
last Monday morning with an enroll
ment of POI and under the most
favorable conditions. Notwithstand-
ing the extra work incident to install
ing the fifth teacher and rearranging
the grades, Prof. Sipple and his able
corps of assistants conducted the work
with "neatness and Dispatch" so to
speak, and by Tuesday the pupils
were all down to work and every
thing was moving along as smoothly
as if the term was a month old.
The enrolment on the first day was
divided as follows among the several
departments: First and second
grades, Miss Florence Moss, teacher,
so; third and fourth grades, Miss
Daisie Rankin, teacher, 81; fifth and
sixth grades, Miss Cassie Heath,
teacher, 80; seventh and eight grades,
Miss Blanche Bosworth, teacher, "a;
High school, Prof. E. NJ. Sipple and
Miss Matte Smith, teachers, AZ;
colored school, Miss Ethel Crutcher,
teacher, 12.
Quite a number of nonresident
pupils are already enrolled and sever
al more will come in later. Last year
was the most successful in our schools
history, and the outlook is much
brighter at this time. Prof Sipple
is certain " a asuccess in the school
room and is sparing nothing that
will advance and build up the pride
Of our city.
If those who are seeking the best
there is in public school advantages
will come to Laclede, examine our
building; visit our school and inspect
the work; investigate the qualifications
Of the teachers and the quality of
5eaching, tn y will certainly come

DEPOT ROBBER
APPREIfENDED
Arrested by Marshal Robt.
Wood, Friday.

City Marshal Wood made a clevel
J capture on Friday evening of las
week and landed one of the most dar
ing hold-up men and criminals in the
state.
Soon after the robbing of the Mil
waukee agent at Chillicothe and the
Wabash and Santa Fs agents at Car
rollton, Marshal Wood received a
photograph and descriptions Of
Charles Roberts, an sx-convict, who
was supposed to have done the Chilli
cothe and Carrollton jobs.
On Friday he learned that man
answering the description of Roberts
had been seen at the depot. He de-
putized Cave Thompson and after a
hunt saw the man he wanted lying
a sleep under tree just east of the
depot. They approached him cauti-
ously and when the fellow opened his
eyes he found himself facing two big
revolvers.
He was searched relieved of dan
gerous slungshot and locked up.
Sheriff Dali and Santa Fe railroad
official arrived that evening and after
close examination they decided he
was the man wanted at Carrollton.
Aftcr he had been hand cufed and
sent to the depot Sheriff Dali happen
ed to put his hand under Roberts left
arm where he felt something that ar
reused his suspicion. He was taken
into W elsh's store and an examina-
ton revealed a Al revolver under
Roberts shirt and tied in such map-
ner that by working his arm back and
forth had concealed it from the
officers during the previous examina-
tion.
He was taken to Carrollton that
night where he was positively identi-
fled as the man that held up the
Santa Fe operator. He was lodged
in the Carro]lton jail to await the ac-
tion of the courts.

P. F. Felt, one of the best known

cry and farm implements but he fur
nishes them splendid market for what
they produce. Last month alone he
paid to the farmers 1927 for grain
and seeds, and in every case paid all
that the market would justify. A bus
iness man of this kind is valuable in

Abcess.

w. II. Harrison, Cleveland, Miss,

a word of praise for Ballards Snow
Liniment. Istepped on nail, which
caused the cords Of my leg to contract
and an abcess to rise in my kl.ee, and
the doctor told me that I would have
stiff leg, so one day went to j. F.
Lords drug store (who is now in Den
yer, Colo.) He recommended a bottle
of Snow liniment; got SOC size and
it cured my leg. 1t is the best lini-
ment in the world. Assesses, with few

LACLEDE, MISSOURI SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 10. 1904
Democratic Editor Bolts.

j. E. Burnham, of Unionville, edi
tor of the only democratic paper il
Putnam county and secretary ant
treasurer of the democratic county
committee, has rendered his resigna
tion to the county committee and re-
nounced his allegiance to the party.
Parker's nomination didn't agree with
his ideas of consistency; then Folks
Endorsement of Cook and Allen was
more than he could stand. He was,
a few months ago, an enthusiastic
supporter for Folk and was organic
ing Folk clubs. He has been a
leader in democratic affairs at Union
vile and his action will have much
influence.
The editor Of the Scott County
Democrat, is another democratic edi-
tor that cannot stand "Holy Joe"
and his machine ticket. In announc-
ing his flop the editor of the democrat
says: "Walbridge was nominated on
the first ballot, and we are willing to
wager our reputation as a political
forecaster that Walbridge smashes
Folks little red wagon in November,
and from what we have noticed of
Holy Joe we do not think he is too
big to cry either. Walbridge will
just about fill the governors chair,
but Folk could float around in it like
a tad pole in the old "swimming hole"
The editor of this paper is a democrat
of the first water, but he would hate
to see his native state without a gov
ernor for four years."
