Some way we cannot understand the

against bis daughter. IL seems to us
that such talk is really an exhibition
Of the material Of which the daughter
is made. A father ought to stand by
bis daughter and stand for her against
the world. No father worth the while
will desert a daughter no matter what
she does. II she goes wrong she needs

VIZ next held up at the cozy home

for thought. We also met Miss Goldie
Emerson, a beautiful and yivaclous
young lady. and one OF the best school
teachers In the county. She teaches
at the Duly school house, and is very
popular With both directors and pupils.
She has taught quite a number Of

Horace Mundy's and found him the
same good-looking Democrat as ever.
Col. Mundy owns n Of the best farms
in Audrain county, and is always there
with all kinds OF stock and good ones
too.
We also visited the county farm and
found that there we're nine inmates at
the farm, all doing nicely. Col. Bill
Willingham is Superintendent and
see that those In his care are well

looks well and so does everybody and

NEWSPAPER DYKAMITED
AT JOPLIN, MO.
Recently Installed Press Is Wrecked
and Typesstting Machines are
Destroyed by Explosion.

Joplin, No., Sept. Is. = Dynamit.
tonight wrecked the pressroom ant
composing room Of the Joplin News
Herald, an afternoon Republican
newspaper, owned by P. E. Burton
and ]. F. Parish, former st. Louii
newspaper men.
The newspaper has been conduct
ing a crusade against the methods o.
the city council and police depart
ment.
Every window In the building
which is is situated at Fourth ant
Joplin streets, in the heart Of ths
business district, was broken and the
new ~perfecting press and four limo
type machines were destroyed.
The explosion occurred at Ills, and
several thousand persons were at.
tracted to the scene. No one was il
the building at the time.
Six packages Of dynamite, each con
tanning two sticks Of the explosive,
were used by the dynamiters. Two
packages were placed under the print.
ing press, and one package under each
OF the four linotype machines. One
OF the packages placed under the press
did not explode.
The backs Of two linotype machines
and the fronts Of the Others were de-
stroyed. The dynamites evidently
placed two packages IN the rear and
two In front Of the machines, with
the intent that the entire four would
be completely demolished.
The press was badly damaged and
will require remodeling at the fac
tory.
The police are searching for every
available clew. 1t was learned to-
night that two men we're seen TO run
out OF the alley in the rear Of the al.
ley In the rear Of the News Herald
building a moment before the ex-
ploSion.
