 JOE COPIES CORNFIELD-Ther is one point of interest to which the attention of visitors should be direct ed. IL is Joe Cope's fifty-acre corn field, south of town. It used to be thought that only little cared Mexican or Indian corn could be raised in the Salt River valley, and farmers, even those who had come from the corn . belts of the east, were so sure of it that they planted no other kind. But Cope's cornfield is of the old-fash- toned kind. It has the regular corn field sfnell The stalks look like young saplings, and the ears, which are of magnificent size, are, some of them. so high from the ground that a tall man can reach them only with diffs- culty. There is not a better field of corn in the famous Whig Valley of Missouri, in the great stretches of H. linois or in the wonderful Ohio Pick away plains.

 MIXED IN JAIL-Francisco Lugo. an Indian school boy, who for some time past has been employed in town, got of on the wrong foot Saturday night and stayed off till about , o'clock yesterday afternoon, when he landed in the city jail. In some man - her he obtained sufficient liquor Sat- urdaY night to make him exuberant and added to his supply till he had ac- cumulated jag that kept him down all day yesterday. In the afternoon ha wandered down Second street, soaring children and exasperating women by his disorderly conduct Finally he reached the store of Mike O'Brady. near the corner of Second and Bu- chanan streets. The proprietor was not at home. and in order to quiet him the women folks turned the hose on him, and then sent for the police. He was brought to jail in the patrol wagon, but had not been in there long when he got into an argument with a hobo who had been admitted a few hours before. The debate ended in the Indian having his face worked over before the two were separated. The hobo was arrested for begging.
