influence of the liquor enough to make
him careless and uncertain in his ac-

The engine wheels cut off both legs

Joplin Knocks Out Dice and

Chance, the Goddess, received her

The powers that be had been consider

was decided not to act until after the
holidays for fear Joplin misses might
not receive so many boxes of Christmas
candy if the rattle cards we're suppress
ed Christmas cigars also caused a
portion OF the delay.
The orders, as ommunioated to pat
rolmen, are definite. Not only is the
use of dice to be discontinued, but the
boxes and the cubes must be hidden
from public view so even the appear
ance of evil may be avoided.

Meteor Awakens Lamar Sleepers.

A great many folks here in Lamar
heard heavy, mulfied report about
1890 Thursday night. 1t Jared the
windows and banged the doors like an
explosion. Many people were uneasy,
fearing that one of the banks had been
blown up. But as nearly as can be
learned it was meteor of considerable
size that went over the town and alight-
ed somewhere to the east.
The fiery fragment of planet seems
to have gone over the north part of town,
or perhaps considerable distance to
the north Of the actual city limits, aud
have alighted with q great rumble and
crash somewhere to the east,-Democrat.
The meteor spoken of above was prob
ably much further north than Lamar
people supposed. 1t was seen by several
Jasper people and also by many Webb
Cityans, and at both places it was so
bright that the impression was that it
landed only short distance away.
However, nobody who saw the meteor
either here or at Webb mentioned hear
ing any noise connected Herewith, so it
may have been pretty close to Lamar,
after all. 1t is said the light cast by it
in it's flight across the heavens was
strong enough to plainly illuminate the
inside of buildings.
