st. Charles Celebration.

The ancient city of St. Charles
is to have a big celebration next
October in commemoration of it's
one hUndredth anniversary. Re.
preventative Silver Of st. Charles
county succeeded in putting
through the Legislature bill ap-
propriating $4,000 from the
State Treasury to aid the good
people of St. Charles in their
patriotic purpose, but the Gov
ernor was compelled to veto it
because I h e constitution pro-
hibits donations of the public
money to local communities for
any purpose. The Worlds Fair
appropriation had to be secured
through a constitutional amend
ment. The lack of state aid will
not, however, deter the ST.
Charles people from making the
celebration successful and glori-
Gus. They are wealthy, indie
pendent and aggressive, and
have a history to be proud Of.

Oussrsst Accident Yet.

Sam Alfree, who formerly liv-
ed near Nyhart, lost a line mare
last Monday near Adrian by an
accident Of a most unusual ma
ture. He was driving from his
home near Adrian TO that town
and was leading the mare which
was followed By q young colt be-
hind his buggy. He stopped on
the road to talk 10 Ed. Crowder
the mare reared back. The rope
caught in the buggy wheel and
she reared still further until il
suddenly came unfastened and
let the animal fall over backward
in the road. There was loud
snap and the mare lay still. Up
on examining her it was dead
and that the fall had cracked her
head open. The road was not hard
and the accident was not only a
serious loss but Of so peculiar a
as TO hardly seem possible. But
Ter Democrat.

Rich Hill needs a band worse
than most anything we can think
of. For instance we have to send
ont of town for all of our 4th Of
July music. We would suggest
that some of our musical talent
take this matter in hand and see
what they can DO about it w e
feel sure they would get plenty
Of encouragement.

The ST. Louis Republic says

The ST. Louis Republic says
There will be something the
matter with the Senate of the
United States as long as there is
a Republican from Missouri in
it. That's true. AS long as a
Missouri Republican sits at a
Senator's desk in the National
Capitol, Missouri Democrats will
look upon the Senate mournfully.
It has been a sort Of tomb for
Democratic heroes from Mis-.
souri, since the Confederate vet
erans first put their chieftains
in it a third Of century ago. Now
that the Republicans have a real
live Senator there, and are ready
to keep one there, and to send
another in due time to retire the
wheel horse of Missouri Dem
ocracy, who got a new lease on
his seat through smooth politics
played last year, t h e United
States Senate does look queer in
Democratic eyes.

Nevada Nan a Suicide.

AL Slayback, n carpenter, OF
Nevada committed suicide by TAX.
ing strychnine at his home last
Wednesday afternoon.
None OF the family were at
home at the time and when it
was discovered some time later
that he had taken poison il was
too late for medical aid 10 save
him. He was conscious some
time before his death but refus
ed to give any reason for his
rash deed. There is little doubt,
however, that his mind was un-
balanced at the time the fatal
draught was taken due probably
to the effects of liquor.
The deceased was sixty. eight
years of age and formerly lived
near Johnstown this county. He
leaves a wife and eight children
all grown TO mourn his loss. He
was a brother-in.law to K. f. L.
McMannus of this city and
father-in law OF Chas. Waller
formerly of this city. The re-
mains were taken TO Harwood
for interment.
