hardly see the justice of the propo-
sition. If it is right for our COW to
annoy and harass you all day
long she should be accorded the
same privilege at night.
There is in our little city too
much of a disposition to obstruct
the sidewalks and neglect them.
In one or two instances where
there are brick walks, they have
been neglected and are out of re-
pair. At night, to one unac-
quainted with them, they are
positively dangerous. This con-
dition of affairs should not be
permitted.
We have a very pleasant letter
from our old friend, Horace E.
Pease, now located near Boise
City, Idaho. He says that they
had more snow and rain the past
winter than any season since he
has been out west, and that means
good crops this year. Mr.. Pease's
many friends in the Valley will be
glad to know hat he is getting
along very nicely.
M. Joseph will have a pro-
fessional auctioneer here from st.
Louis, Monday, April 23d, to con-
duct the auction sale of his gen.
eral stock of merchandise. The
sale will continue throughout the
week and everything will be sold.
All articles auctioned separately,
nothing put up in punches, so you
can buy as little as you want.
Remember the place, south of
courthouse square.
Mrs. Thornton, widow of Editor
Thornton, who died of small pox,
has sufficiently recovered from her
illness last Saturday to make a
trip to St. Louis, where she has a
son in a hospital. Mrs. Thornton
announces that she expects to re-
turn to Belleview and contine the
publication of the Banner. Mrs.
Thornton, although she nursed her
husband while he had the disease,
did not take the small pox.
The spring opening at the Lo-
PEI Store Company last Friday at
tracted the usual large crowd of
visitors, all day long the store
was thronged with ladies who ad-
mired and praised the many lovely
things in spring and summer mil
linery which greeted their eyes.
Miss Kate and her assistants had
arranged a most beautiful and at
tractive display, and many were
the compliments they received.
Cake plates and sugar bowls were
given as souvenirs.
A number of fishermen here
abouts are complaining because OF
the failure OF the State Game
Warden to take any action in
reference to the dam across the st,
Francis river in Madison county,
1t is commended hat the said dam
is a plain violation of the game
and fish law, and that it should be
provided with a fsh-way or torn
down. 1t is claimed that if this
obstruction was removed, fish
would be much more plentiful in
Stout's creek and other streams,
Although his attention has been
called to the matter the warden
has, up to this time, taken nc
action.

Easter was celebrated at st
Paul's church in a fitting manner
The chancel with it's furnishing
had been SO p~rofusely and taste
fully decorated with cut flowers
and plants that it was, indeed, {
place of beauty. The music was
of a high orderand all the services
were impressive. The enthusiasm
and the unanimity with which thu
!, people worked to make everything
connected with the services worthy
of the occasion, combined with thu
loyalty with which they attended
them, warrants the belief that the
day was rich with spiritual gooG
for the parish. The offerings
which excelled those of last Easter
will be almost altogether devoted
to extra parochial purposes. The
Sunday school festival was a de.
cided success, and the pupils &C
quilted themselves with so mucl
credit that we shall look forward
with pleasure to the next festiva
occasion.
