Fire at Potts Barn.

The transfer barn belonging to
John r. Potts caught fire Sunday
morning about $3.50 o'clock. 1t
was supposed that some one had
been sleeping in the hay loft on
the south side and when leaving
threw a lighted match in some
hay in the loft. It was discoy-
cred by Mr.. Potts who was going
to his barn to feed his horses.
If he had been a few minutes
later it would have been impos-
sible to save the barn.
The fire department made a
quick run and soon had the fire
under control.

Pupils, Recital at Central.


On Monday evening, November
10th, the first pupils recital of
this season was given in Murrell
Hall, before an unusually large
audience. The program includ-
ed piano, vocal, and violin NUM-
hers Of different grades, but Of
uniform merit. 1t was also Of
sufficient length to include sew
eral new pupils as well as old
and fayorite ones. The piano
playing Of Misses Claudine Mum
dy and Mary Malone made a
delightful impression on even
habitual attendants at Central
recitals. Miss NIundy read the
first movement of the Concerto,
G minor, by Mendelssohn in a
thoroughly brilliant manner.
1t is unnecessary to specify
the individual merit Of those
young ladies who have appeared
prior to this recital. Each num-
Der elected the heartiest APP
plause and gave convincing
proof Of what a music depart
ment with inflexible and unvary-
ing standard can accomplish.

Dear Sir:
The State Historical Society Of
Missouri is endeavoring to col
leet all the information possible
relating to the lives Of the men
who framed NIissouri's First Con-
stitution in 1920. These men
met in convention in st. Louis in
June 1920 and adopted Con-
stitution in July Of that year
They were truly Missouri State
Founders and many of them
helped to put in operation the
State Government and later held
important state offices. One Of
the delegates from Howard
county was certain Jonathan
Smith Findlay. The following
'are practically all the facts that
/ have obtained relating to this
mans life He came to Missouri
from Georgetown, District Of Co
lltmbia, having been an editor Of
it Federalist paper in that place,
II was delegate Of the First
Constitutional Convention of
Missouri and in his candidacy he
favored civil and religious lib
erty, immigration Of slaves into

1882. lie was a man Of great
political Influence; still the
above are practically all the
important facts obtainable relat-
ing to the life of this great man.
I am sure there must be some of

find the exact date and place Of
birth, nationality Of parents,
religion, all public offices held
by him, slave holder or not, or
any other information possible
relating 20 his life.
it is a matter Of great impor-
tance to have the lives Of Mis-

possible to collect data relating
to them. Kindly insert this

WHAT'S H +

In view OF recent editorials which
have appeared In the po~catello Fri
pune and n or two other papers
IN d'fierent parts of the state, ONT
10 led to wonder what can be the
the matter with political conditions
az they exist. II seems that the pres.
ent state adm inistratIon has done
something that does not meet with
the approval Of all OF the people. or
TAILED to do something which some
people think should have been
done.
In the issue OF June 20, the Tri-
Dune contained a somewhat gar
rulous editorial on "Aspiration w.
the Material In which the qualifi-
cations Of numerous OF the regular
candidates for governor, and also
OF a few new ones were wit
tily presented. The closing para
graphs OF the editorial mentioned
are as follows:
But withal. there are a couple OF
gnDernatorial size and weight who

campaigning in their makeups, and

viewpoint OF the dear people just
