follows: A man by the name of

first large yoke of oxen in this State.
They were speckled red and white

were shipped to Boston and dressed
and exhibited in one of the markets
there. The steak is said to have sold
for dollor a pound.
Mr.. Smiths grandfather was the
sixth settler in the area which is now
the town of Mercer. His wife road
horse back through the woods by a
spotted trail and carried their kitchen
outfit in her lap. 1t was understood
that the man who first raised six
bushels of beans in the town should
be honored by the title of Major. The
successful aspirant was a man named
Lowe and he bore this title until he

for his daughter Lizzie, eliminated
here Monday when he found her oc-
cupying prominent position with
a large department store Wickam,
who lives at Springfield. Mo-, sepa-
rated from his wife when his daugh-
ter was 6 years old. The mother
moved to Kansas, taking the child
with her.
Several months later Wickam be-
came wealthy through speculations in
the peach orchards of the Ozarks.
Fearing his daughter was unable to
make her way and needed assistance,
Wickam determined to find her. That
was fourteen years ago. Monday
Wickam arrived here, and from the
city directory he found that Lizzie
Wickam was employed in a local de-
partment store. Twenty minutes la
ter father and daughter were to-
gether. The mother died several
gears ago.
