PROSPERITY BACK In
SOUTHEAST MISSOURI
Marketing of Wheat Crop Puts
End to Depression, Says
Cape Salesman.

The southern end of Southeast Mis-
souri, has emerged from the state of
depression thatLh existed for the
past year, according to Thomas J.
Breidecker, travelling man, who lives
at $50 Broadway. Mr.. Breidecker,
who represents the Heinz Pickle Com
pany, says the merchants in the lower
counties are meeting all of their obi
cations, since the new wheat was
placed on the market.
Business conditions in the lower
counties have changed wonderfully
during the past few weeks" said Mr..
Breidecker. "Most of my customers
have settled their old accounts and are
making large purchases with the ex-
pectation that the coming season will
be good one.
"The wheat has been far above The
average and the farmers are getting
an excellent price for their grain.
There is going to be a bountiful crop
of corn, probably the largest ever pro-
duced in this section of Missouri. The
farmers expect to get good price for
it and the merchants are expecting
plenty of money within short time.
while | was in Poplar Bluff, | met
a representative of the Blount Plow
Company, which ships extensively to
this part of Missouri and Southern IL
linois. He told me that his company
had collected all of its accounts, which
ran into the millions, during the past
three weeks. Those accounts were dis
tributed over several States.
ale reported that the merchants
were replenishing their stocks with
liberal purchases. Everywhere l went
l found the merchants optimistic. In
my opinion this is going to be a great
year for business"
Capt. Al Jayness, the river man,
who owns large farm Just across the
river, informed The Tribune yester-
day that his corn crop would be the
largest ever produced on his farm.
From what | can learn" said Capt
Jaynes, "there is going to be a rec
ord breaking corn crop. | do not be-
lieve it will drop below sixty cents a
bushel, even though the yield is I'M

$3.50 a bushel before the winter is

plan before and have had good results
in Riding my fields of Hessian fly.
The farmers adjoining me are also
going to burn their wheat fields this

OTTO GOEHRINC and
AUTO DO TRICK ACT
Drayman Stoves Machine and il
Runs Away, Then He Makes
il Behave.

Otto Goehring, the husky drayman
who carries pianos on his broad Shout
ders up winding Stairways, through
an emergency demand was yesterday
compelled to perform feats of daring
in a combined exhibition of speed and
trick auto riding that would put Bar
ney Oldfield among the has beens.
Mr.. Goehring and his assistant, j.
H. Reed, had hauled load of mer-
chandise to the Rueseler grocery store,
and when they arrived at their desti-
nation they discovered the auto de-
livery car standing in their way MT.
Goehring stepped down from his seat
and leaned against the rear end Of the
delivery truck for the purpose of push
ing it a short distance to clear the
passage.
The wheels had scarcely made a rev.
olution when the engine was by some
mysterious means thrown in operation
and the machine began at once to in
dulge in frivDlities that BODIED i'll for
passing vehicles. After jumping high
into the air three or four times in
rapid succession, the frisky delivery
wagon darted diagOnally across the
street at lightning speed.
In the meantime Mr.. Goehring had
Overtaken the runaway and leaped in
to the rear end. He rushed to the
steering wheel, and in his efforts to
steer clear of disaster, did a serpentine
caper up Broadway, with few spiral
movements thrown in.
He kept working however, trying to
hold the car clear of dangerous OBJ
stacles while he was learning to stop
the engine. He gained speed continu-
Ously, and the load of groceries, which
served as ballast, was flung in various
directions as the car struggled in re-
sistance to Goehring's efforts.
His hand finally struck the emer-
gency brake, and every wheel was in
stantly clamped stopping the speeding
motor so abruptly that Mr.. Goehring
bit his tongue as he was bounced
against the top of sthe machine
Mr.. Goehring says that he has no
intention of disposing of his trusty
dray team in substitution for an auto
truck.

jefferson City, Mo-, July 10 Adj
Gen. John B. O'Meara, who is also
disbursing officer of the United States
War Department, left today for tour
of the various camps of instructions of
the National Guard of Missouri.
He will inspect each of the camps
and will make arrangements at each

for paying the officers and men for

bursement is done through the Adju-
tant General of the State.

Man Resting On
A Garbage Can
Slides Into It
Henry Wichterich Has Thrill
ing Experience, But is Glad
Refuse Wasn't in Can.

Henry Wichterich knows how il
feels to be canned. He can understand
that it is easier to get in than out
And how he happened to discover this
rare sensation was not premeditated
He was engaged in a conversation
with some friends in front of the St
Charles Hotel, at Main and Themis
streets, last night. The large oper
garbage can, which stands on the cor
ner, is frequently used to prop up mer
who pause on the corner to pass the
time of day.
Mr.. Wichterich, following the exam,
pie of others, leaned on the can as he
chaffed with friends. But he soor
grew weary of the sharp edge and de-
cided to sit down, using the rim OF
the can as stool.
He rested in this position for several
minutes, and then it grew uncomforta.
BILE. In attempting to readjust himself
he slipped in. He folded up like a jack.
knife as he wedged into the big can
When he finally quit going in, the toes
of his shoes were rubbing against his
chin, and the top of his hat was al,
most in an eclipse.
His friends enjoyed his predicament
and while he squirmed vigorously in
an effort to extricate himself, they
leaned against the wall Of the hOteI
and beloved with glee.
He was too busily engaged to no.
tice the mirth of his friends. Wher
the laughter would subside for a mo-
ment, one of them would make cutting
remarks about Mr. Wichterich at
tempting to act like a pair of scis-
sors, and the hilarity would break
forth anew.
Finally Patrolman Whitener stroll
ed by and noticed the man imprisoned
in the can. "This is the time | found
the can on you," said the policeman
He pressed several of the spectators
into service and Mr. Wichterich was
pulled out.
He thanked the policeman and then
expressed his gratitude when he learn
ed that the can was used for waste
paper instead of offal.

Robbers entered the general mcr-
chandise store of Edmundson Brothers
at Vanduser last Tuesday night and
after looting the cash register of about
IS, made way with a large amount Of
merchandise.
The burglary was discovered by W
+. EGmundson when he opcncd HI.
store Wednesday morning. His SUI
piciOns were first aroused when he
discovered that there was no money
IN the register, although ne had left
about S. in it when he closed the store
the night before.
He telephOned to mis- brother, {. +.
EdmundsOn, and asked if he had been
IN the store during the night. When
his brother informed him that he had
not been near the store, Mr.. Edmund
son began a thorough investigation Of
the premises, and a short time later
discovered that the burglars had
broken in at the rear door.
He telephoned to Charleston for
some bloodhouffds, but was unable To-
get them at that place. Other deg
were procured at Sikeston, and whcr
they were brought to the scene Of tn
robbery they took up the trail at Tn.
rear of the premises and followed i
for more than a mile to Little River
They then returned in a roundabou
way, going through backyards of
number of homes and finally round
ing up again at the rear of the store
After going through the store tn.
dogs started again toward Little Rive,
coming out at the same place as be
fore.
Evidences Of where the men ha.
gotten into boat We're plainly viSiblt
but the dogs were unable to trail thcI
after they pulled away from the shor
While the exact extent of the loss
cannot be ascertained it is believed
that the there's secured several nun
dred dollars worth of loot, such is
shoes, clothing, knives and razors.
Immediately following this robbery,
4 negro was robbed in Sikcston We'd
ncsday night of valuable suit Of
clothes, and on Thursday night, a
white man was held up in Illmo by Il
suffering negro and relieved of S13

the robberies. and officers are main
tanning a close lookout for the ban
