MISSOURI NEWS
ERROR FOUND IN COUNT
Amendment Fixing Payment OF Lesls-
iators Loses by Revision.

Jefferson City.-A clerical error In
the office of the secretary Of state
was discovered Wednesday night,
and amendment /, fixing the pay OF
legislators at $3.50, which vas report
ed carried, is found to have been lost.
The vote Of jackson county gave the
yeas" 1919. The clerk read 1t &c.
1879, passing the bill by nearly 2O,OO0
votes.
The mistake Is explained through
the fact that the figures were poorly
written and, in the excitement OF the
office, resulting from the close race be
tween the Democrat and Republican,
candidates for ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS,
the error was made. The amendment
Is defeated by 29,087 votes.
The only amendments adopted were
| Nos. 2 and 8. The former Is the initia
| tive and referendum, with 1880 ma
jority, and the latter empowers the
levy of an additional tax for road ant
bridge improvement purposes OF II
cents on the 500 valuation, by 35,S6'
majority.

Ask Prohibition Election.

Jefferson City.-The question OF a
prohibition amendment to the consti-
tuition, providing for a statewide in
hibition of the manufacture or sale OF
intoxicants within the state, is to be
brought before the ensuing session OF
the general assembly.
A resolution to that effect, asking
that the voters Of the state be per-
mitted to express themselves thereon
at the polls, is to be introduced In the
senate. 1t will be offered by Senator
Peck of the First district, who Is
seemingly not dismayed by his failure
to get such a resolution through the
last session. The senator, at that time,
did not even succeed in getting his
resolution to a vote.

PAIR OF MYSTERIES SOLVED.
Mr.. Mscswiiiger Now Knows the Fats
Of Old Trunks and Suit Cases.

"I used to wonder" said Mr.. Mao
swilliger, what became OF all the old
leather trunks and suit cases and
handbags and that sort Of thing. OF
course they must wear out and be
thrown away, but you never saw an
old leather trunk on the rubbish carts
Of the street cleaning department, did
you?
Il never did, never; and still they
must go somewhere; and ! wondered
where. Now / know, or ] think i
know. They go into meat pies and
the stews and things that you get In
boarding houses. I used to wonder
| where they got the beef that they put
into these pies, It was SO tough; but
now l know. They buy these old leath-
err trunks and cut 'em up into suitable
sized chunks and make this leather
beef up into meat pies.
ut is true that l never yet found in
a boarding house meat pie or beef
stew a trunk lock or a piece OF a
hinge or any rivets or corner clamps
or other trunk hardware, but II isn't
necessary for me to find these things
In the pie to know; there's a whole LOT
of things that we may not be able to
get any actual proof of that We know
Just the same are true, and this II
one Of them.
IL may not find any buckles or keyi
or casters in my meat pie, but dom
have to; ! know what the meat in thu
pie is made of we'll enough to satisf!
me, and this is to me a great, in fact
a double, satisfaction. l know nov
where the boarding house keepers ge
the meat for these pies, and I know
also what becomes Of the old hand
bags, suit cases and leather trunks.

"HERo" SENTENCED TO PRISON.
Removed Rail, But Did Not Fias
Train In Time.

Boonville.-Walter Cox, a young
wood-chopper from Franklin Junction
who removed a rail from the tracks
of the main line of the Missouri
Pacific near Otterville the night Of
February 81 last, and caused a serious
freight wreck. pleaded guilty IN
circuit court here and got a sentence
of ten years in the ~penitentiary.
Cox was chopping wood near the
scene of the wreck, and conceived the
idea, according to his confession, to
remove a rail from the track and ap'
pear to discover it's absence just in
time to flag a train, and thereby be
substantially rewarded by the railroad
company. He failed to flag the train
in time to prevent the wreck.

or all the schemes put forward to
help the unemployed, n of the most
alluring is the proposal by the Glas-
gov corporation to construct, at a
cos Of $50, 000, 900, a great battle-ship
canal between the Forth and the
Clyde. and thus to link up the North
sea with the Atlantic. A modest
canal joining the Forth and the Clyde
already exists, and 1t formed in the
mid-Victorian period one of the won
ders Of the British isles. It is As miles
long, with a rise Of 1856 feet. When
the railways began to dominate the
country it was prophesied that no
canals would be necessary, but
the prophets forgot that it would al.
ways pay ships to have their passage
shortened, and since that prophecy
was made many ship canals have
come into existence.
Although the ancients knew the
value of canals. they failed to hit or
the simple device of the lock, which
was not discovered till the fourteenth
century. To this day the dispute hal
never been settled as to which coun
