Hit by Brick; Gets
Diamond.
Negroes Head Unhurt and Gem
Falls Out as Missile Skaters

Joplin No., Dec. 30.-"Better
born lucky than rich, Z" said Wash
ington Hamilton jones' a negro
porter at the Hotel Conner, after
he had been hit on the head with
a brick yesterday afternoon on
West Fourth street. The brick
broke and a diamond ring rolled
out and fell on the sidewalk. The
gem which was worth about $50,
evidently had been lost in the
brick clay. 1t left an imprint in
the brick, which formed a shell
for it.
\ The find was the direct result
of an argument between Jones
and another negro, who grabbed
the brick from a pile and threw
at Jones. Jones' head was not
injured.

How the Interburban
Railway Benefits
a Community

It is no difficult matter to shoN
the great benefits a cominunit.
of enterprising people may deriv
by the construction and operation
of an interurba railway.
The farmer, perhaps is NOR
greatly benefited than anyon,
else for the reason that he live'
farther away from any kind o
transportation facilities than any
other class of citizen.
Convenient and frequent trair
service increases the value of hi:
land. The first question asked
NOWADAYS by the prospective buy
er is: What railroad facilities
have you got?" If it takes the
better part of a day to drag a
load of grain to market, or il
your stock must be driven long
distances before it can be loaded
into cars for market, or if your
family must take horses that are
needed on the farm to drive to
town every few days, your farm
is not worth as much as it would
be if you had a side track near
your barn or stock lot where you
could load your grain or stock
and ship direct to the city mar
kets, and a comfortable interur-
ban Car passing every few hours
so that your family could 60 to
town and back before noon any
day, and your children 60 to bet
ter schools and not have to board
away from home; they may be
home every night to help with
the chores.
Nearby and frequent trans
portation facilities tends to in
crease production. The distance
from shipping points, in the
country, especially, govern the
tonnage produced per acre and
consequently directly concerns the
farmers profits. His revenues
are increased by the possibility
of his being able to ship small
fruit, eggs, butter, milk and gar
den products daily with compare
tive little trouble and expense.
Interurbau railway cars have spe-
cial arrangements for handling |
traffic of this character. Conse-
quently farmers whose distance
from town now forbids their en-
in this character of culti-
which is always in active
demand at cash prices, can with
the aid of the interban road
greatly increases the profits of
MS business.
1t is an erroneous idea to inn
naRine that time is of no value
to the farmer. He realizes the
fact that farms must be conduct
ID on business principles, and
hat time is money to him. He
also considers the wear and tear
IN his wagons, harness and horse
iesh, as we'll as the value of his
,wu and his family's time.
1t is just as important for the
farmer to have his wants prompt
y supplied as it is for anyone
Use. He wants his daily papers,
md his mail without any unnec-
.ssary delay; he is intimately
concerned about the price he may
expect for his products. The In
:erbrban road will give him his
papers before noon on the day
hey are printed. He can take a
easing car, go to town, sell his
Ituff and be back home without
any time, money or horse
lesh. If any of his farm imple-
nents break, he can get the nee
.ssary parts for repairs without

New Postal Ruling
One Hundred Printed Envelopes
Free to NEWS Readers.

The Postal Department, it j
reported from Washington, D. C.
are soon to make a new order re
garding letter mail. 1t will b
to the effect that the envelop,
shall have written or printed OF
it the name and postofice of thu
write. This will be compulsory
and as we understand it, will b
necessary before the letter can b
forwarded from the receiving OF
mailing Office.
We presume this is to stop OF
check the wonderful amount Of
mail daily sent to the dead letter
Office at Washington. If the let
ter cannot be delivered to the one
to whom it is addressed, then il
can be returned to the writer
thereof.
The News proposes to aid in
every way this new departure, to
see that every letter reaches its
proper destination or is returned
to the writer. This simple pre-
would absolutely do away
with all doubt as to delivery of
first class mail, and the letter
would be delivered to the party
addressed, or returned promptly
to the writer.
Every person who pays a years
subscription to the News in adj
vance will receive 100 printed en-
velopes free with their name and
poStoftice address neatly printed
in the corner, provided that they
call at the Office and get them
when finished.
Remember, It will be absolute
y necessary that the writer's adj
1ress be printed or written on the
in order to make it
nailable. Why not have a neatly
printed address when it costs you
for the printing or the
envelopes?
This preliminary offer only
lclds good until March l, 1911.
L may be renewed and it may

lge, then you know you will get

nay not repeat the order.
