Never did New York or Pennsyl-
vania experience a more determine
ed snow storm than that which
visited this section last Sunday.
The fall was not so great. perhaps,
but came down as heavily while it
lasted. 1t was a beautiful sight to
him seated in a comfortable room
and possessed of a full wood-pile.

Mrs. Lysander Ashlock, living
near the Silver Mines, died sud-
denly of heart disease, last Thurs
day evening. She was sick only
one hour. The funeral took place
last Saturday and the body laid in
its final resting place in the local
cemetery. To my old friend,
Lysander Ashlock, Esq, and the
members of his family | extend
my earnest sympathy in the great
and unforeseen bereavement.
Last Wednesday night the ther-
mometer went down to minus g.,
and next day was one of the cold
est of the season.. Thursday night
a 4-inch snowfall came to reinforce
the layer which had been spread a
month before, and for whose dis
appearance everyone had been
praying. The coasting grounds
and the skating ponds were
knocked out for the time being,
though young America soon had
the former in trim again.
The following item appeared in
the society columns of Sundays
Globe Democrat: "Miss Virginia L.
Hazard, formerly of Webster
Groves, is now visiting Lieut.. and
Mrs. ZURICH at the Preside of Mon
terey, Cal. Miss Hazard, who was
Mrs. Jurich's bridesmaid at a very
pretty wedding at the Southern
hotel last September, expects to be
gone several months visiting many
points of interest. Mrs. Zurich
was formerly Miss Maude Edgar,
of Ironton, Mo-"
Charleston, Mo-, has it's "knock-
ers," too, it seems. Ca "knocker"
is one who won't further the self
seeking schemes of some men, re-
CARELESS of the interests of the
community. This from the
Charleston Enterprise: "Charles-
ton has had considerable expert
ence in encouraging industrial en-
terprises at the solicitation of in
terested promoters, and is not
likely to go blindly into any
scheme on the simple word of in
dividuals who depend for a liveli-
hood upon their ability to induce
others to hold the bag"
1t is amusing, if not surprising,
to hear some local Republicans de-
nouncing those six or eight bolt
ing legislators who refuse to abide
the decision of the Senatorial
caucus. I remember how these
same denunciators late did desig-
nate as "Yellow-Dog Democrats
their political opponents who stood
by the decision of the primary and
supported the ticket so chosen.
But, as the late Mr.. Solomon Brill
used to say-''There's a great deal
of difference, in the eye Of the law,
between Come out of my house,
Mr.. Mccarthy, and MI. Mccarthy,
come out of my housed"
