over on the Missouri Southern.
From Sabula l took a hack for
Lesterville. Fred Darden met me
there by agreement. We spent the
night with Mrs. Goggin, who runs

$3.50 rig. We had a fine drive to
C%enterville, where | stopped for
dinner at Mrs. Bells, another fine
country tavern. After spending a
few hours with the merchants we
departed through the hills to Ell
lington, and in going down Sink
ing and Dry Valley we saw some
fine crops of all kinds. From there
we went up Logan Creek to Ell
lington and there were some fine
crops in this valley. We were
overtaken that evening by a big
rain storm and had to drive under
shelter. We landed at Ellington
about 6 o'clock. Next morning
we boarded a train for Corridor, a

stores, a hotel, saw mill and news

ing he was wanted at the depot.
He "hiked OUT in the hot sun for
the station. Arriving there he was
informed that a strange negro had
entered a freight car and stolen
some canned goods. The negro
had gone up the track and the
official started in pursuit. He
soon saw the negro and the negro
saw him. Beyond the Knob the
fugitive took to the woods aud
made his escape. The Constable
that afternoon boarded a train for
Bismarck, being sure the negro
would go there. While the Con-
stable was in Bismarck the negro
was captured at Pilot Knob and
brought to Ironton. 1t was then
a~scertained that the fellow had
taken but one can of sardines and
there was no desire to to prosecute
him. He was turned loose and
allowed to go on his way. His
home, he said, was in Memphis.
Constable Marshall had all his
chase for nothing, beside the ex-
pense he was put TO.
Eli D. Axe, the veteran editor of
the Ironton REGISTER, one of the
oldest country newspapers in the
state, has been editor of that paper
for over forty-five years. We can
safely say there is not in all Mis-
souri, a more fearless and consci-
entious editorial writer than Eli
AXE, and we doubt if country
journalism in this state has ever
produced an ADLER and more forci-
BILE writer. When the G. B. edi-
tor was young and a beginner at
the business he found Eli AXE his
model and examplar, and from
that time to this day no paper has
been welcomed to our Office with
the same degree of interest and
| pleasure that we welcome the REG
IsTER. Ironton, Iron county,
| Southeast Missouri and the state
of Missouri owe to the veteran edi-
tor of the REGISTER a debt of
gratitude for a life-work devoted
to their interests and upbuilding.
His influence has helped to make
them what they are to a degree
second to the influence of no edi-
torial writer in the state. Here's

souri, journalism, and its ablest
exponent.-Jdckson Cash-Book.

Every young man who can at

suggestions in preparing the ex-
hibit and information concerning
the contest write to A. j. Meyer

1t is reported on good authority
that the Iron Mountain railroad is
to be double tracked from st. Lou
is to Texarkana, and that work will
be begun in earnest at once. 1t is
also proposed to reduce the grade
from De Soto south by deepening
cuts and otherwise leveling the
track. One hundred pound steel
is to be used in the double track
ing and when completed the Iron
Mountain will be one of the best
IToads In the United States. A
meeting of stockholders was held
in st. Louis on Tuesday of this
week at which time the 5000, 900,
600 bond issue was voted. These
bonds will be used to refund some
of the outstanding bonds and the
remainder will be used in road
betterment and equipments. The
spending of that vast sum of mon-
ey is going to help out the whole
country financially, as every man
who wishes, to work will have it.
