Mike Quinn was the recipient of an original package, last Sunday night; a live one, in the form of a bouncing boy. Last Saturday night seems to have been a night for general incidents.

Two colored girls, well known in Doniphan, went into the house of Mr. Hahn, and breaking Into the wardrobe, took all the best clothes and jewelry and carried them down by the river bank, piled them up, and left them. The family being out of the House at the time, did not discover this till they returned, and found everything topsy-turvey. One of the same girls stole five dollars and a hat from her grandmother, only a few pays ago. The clothes and jewelry taken from Hahn's would amount to over fifty dollars enough to send them to the pen, but no arrest has been made up to this writing.

It is useless for us to excuse ourselfor apologize for our non-appearance in last week's items, as we had one of the worst cases of bilious attack we have ever had; and if it was not a stubborn case for a doctor to get even with, just ask Dr. Moore, who, after giving us all kinds of stuff hat doctors use, finally brought us out. If D. Waddell will have some men cut that Rock Creek bank down so that a horse or any animal can go up from the bridge, it might save some accident. Three men and a team could do it in an hour.

Milton Williams, of Everest, father-in-law of W. D. Stewart and John Kirby, died at that place, last week. His pension just came in time to pay for his funeral. That is the way of a good many of the old soldiers.

They have to wait till disease wears them out, for additional testimony. We did not learn Mr. Williams' age, but he was up in the sixties. He formerly lived in Doniphun. He was a man tiiat thought a good deal of his family and was well liked by his neighbors.

He leaves a widow. James Lcdington and his sister Ida went to St. Joe, last week, to visit with friends. Wm. Shrw, an old Doniphan County farmer, was in town, Saturday.

Rememtoer JEzxy ina Zate 2 day morning's St. Joseph papers brought decidedly startling news to Troy. They stated that about 11 o'clock Sunday night, a enirine on the track of the Kan- rsto uul fViuncil BluflS Road, on 5th Street, had come upon the body of a man lying upon the track.

A brakeman, at the risk of his life, jumped from the engine, and dragged the body from the ir-k that it was found the man had been struck by a previous train, and when pulled away, his right arm dropped from his body, having been cut off, but was held in place by the coat-sleeve. It was also stated that the back of the skull was crushed, and the scalp nearly torn off. Medical aid was summoned, and the un fortunate man taken to a hospital, but be could not possibly recover. It was ascer tained, from a letter In his pocket, and from persona who recognized him, that it was John J. Baker, of Troy.

We thought strange, at the time, that he should, even if drunk, been wandering in that out-of- the-way place, but that there must have been foul play. It appears that our surmise was correct. The facta in the case, as near as they can be got at, are these Baker had prom-. ised a citizen of Troy to go with him some miles into the country, Sunday to see about some school matters. But Sunday morning he sent word that he had received a message calling htm to El wood, where he went on the morning train.

lie remained at Elwood all day, but missed the Grand Island train that leaves St. Joseph a little after o'clock in the evening, lie then concluded to cross over to St. Joseph, and wait for the Rock Island train, that leaves about half-past 8. lie visited a number of saloons in the vicinity of the Union Depot, and became drunk. He says he met a stranger, who walked with him down the street, and when they reached a dark spot, the man suddenly sprang behind him, and dealt him a stunning blow.

He supposed the man then went through his pockets, and dragged him onto the railroad track, to make it appear that the cars had killed him. But he seems to be somewhat confused here. Another supposition is, that in going around among the saloons drinking, he missed the Rock Island train, when he attempted to return to Elwood, and stay all night with his brother-in-law, Joe Andrews, but wandered out of the way, and was beset and robbed near the railroad traeks. He says be had money in his pocket, which was not there when he was found. It is the belief now that he had not been run over when discovered, but that when the brakeman hastily jerked him from the track, his right arm remained across the rail, and was severed at the elbow.

It has since been ascertained that his skull is not fractured. The wound in the back of the head was probably made by the robber, in knocking him down. He has recovered consciousness, and it is said that his chances of recovery are good but the arm will have to be amputated above the place where it was cruh eft'. We are sorry for Baker. Aside from his one failing, he is not a bad man.

He came to this County when a boy, his father re moving from the vicinity of Maysville, Kentucky, in 1854 or 1860, and settling near Highland Station, where John was raised. He is now between 40 and 45 years of age. He is a man of much natural abil ity, well educated and well posted, and had become a very good lawyer. Most of his life has been spent in school teaching, and be has the reputation of being one of the best and most successful teachers in the County. He is a man of good heart, and in all literary enterprises and enter tainments got up in the community, he always gave liberally of his time and la bor to make them successes.

Time and again be has solemnly sworn off, and tried to keep his pledge but he found it impossible, whenever he could get hold of liquor. A little of it mode him drunk, and when in that condition he lost all caution.

Whether he was knocked down by a rob ber, or accidentally stumbled upon the railroad track, whiskey was the cause, all the same. We trust that he may recover. become the useful man that he is capable of, be a blessing to his family, an honor to the community, and eternally forswear the curse that has almost brought him to the grave. Worth Its Wrtjrnt in If a price can be placed on pain, "Moth er's Friend" is worth its weight in gold as an alleviator. My wife suffered more in ten minutes with either of her other two children than she did al-together with her last, having used four bottles of "Mother's Friend."

Trot School Matters. The annual meeting was held last Thursday after noon. Frank Brown was re-elected Treasurer for three years, and Sol. Miller was elected Clerk, to fill the vacancy caused by the removal and resignation of E. R.

Westfull. It was voted to have an eight months' school, and a tax of 12 mills for all purposes was levied the same as last year. The levy was not divided into teachers' and incidental funds, but it was left to the discretion of the Board to use the fund for such purposes and in such amounts as may be necessary. The meeting voted against County uniformity of text-books. The Board met, Friday afternoon, and made the following selection of teachers Principal John S.

Norman. Grammar Department Miss Eva Fleming. Intermediate Department Miss Laura B. Horley. Primary Department Miss Edna Whitney.

A. Simonson was elected Janitor. School opens Monday, September 15th. It is calculated that the tax levied will run the school for the eight months, pay off the debt now existing, and leave the District square with the world, at the close of the school year. The Board, among other things, determined to adopt the severest means allowed by law against those persons who are in the habit of breaking the window panes in the school house, and otherwise damaging the building.

While occasionally window glass is broken accidentally, it is known that most of this destruction is intentional and mischievous, and any one hereafter detected in it, will pay for the fun.

f4T A pension has been granted to the minor children of Austin George, of of ty a of is Uncle Ben Whorton is dead. His death occurred at Frazer, Buchanan County, Missouri, July 28th, doubtless of extreme old age, being 88 yean and 6 months old. i nns nas passed away one of the very earliest pioneers of Doniphan County, and a remarkable man, who spent almost an unusually long life in the character of a pioneer. Many a time, during the last ten years, he has said to us that his time would soon come, and each time expressed a desire that we should write a kindly obitua ry notice of him. Circumstances made it necessary for him to make his home in Missouri, the past spring, so that his death did not occur in Doniphan County, after all, as he supposed it would.

Benjamin Whorton was born at Freder icksburg, Virginia, February 2, 1S02. While he was yet a small boy, his father emigrat ed to a new part of Kentucky, Ben. cross ing the Alleghany Mountains and making the entire journey on horseback an exercise that ho practiced all his life, as the last time we saw him, less than a year ago, he was on horseback. When he be came of age, he went into the pioneer bus iness for himself, and moved to Indiana, into the new country along the east branch of White River. In a few years, he again removed to the unsettled regions in Central Illinois.

When the Territory of Iowa was formed, he was among the early pioneers of that State, where he remained until the Piatt Purchase, in Missouri, was opened for settlement, when he removed to Buchanan County, living there until Kansas was opened, in 1851, when he came to Doniphan County. He was perhaps the first settler (at least one of the first) in Wayne Township. He located a claim between Doniphan and Brenner, where he lived until the past spring. His wife died, a few years ago, and he subse quently married a maiden lady in Mis souri, who survives him. He also leaves two sons and three daughters, that we know of there may be more.

Although a Virginian, a Democrat, and naturally a pro-slavery man, we have never heard that Uncle Ben. Whorton, during all the Kansas troubles, molested any one on account of politics, or took part in any of the ruffianism so prevalent in those days. He was always a good friend of ours, and we found him honest. May he live long in the Good Land. The farm in this County was in the name of his first wife.

On account of a disagreement among the children, her heirs, the place was sold, last winter, by the Sheriff, for partition, and Mr. Whorton went to Missouri to spend his few remaining days. Harriet E. Hall, of Wayne, Ind. says: "I owe my life to the Great South American Nervine.

I had been in bed for five months from the effects of an exhausted Stomach, Indigestion, Nervous Prostration, and a general shattered condition of my whole system. Had tried three doc tors with no relief. The first bottle of the Nervine Tonic improved me so much that I was able to walk about, and a few bot tles cured me entirely. I believe it is the best medicine in the world. I cannot re commend it too highly." A trial bottle will convince you.

Fred. Demalarie Killed. The name of Fred. Demalarie is at lost entered on the "red-jester" of the other world. He was killed by a locomotive on the Missouri Pacific Road, near the Leavenworth Soldiers' Home, about 7 o'clock last Friday evening.

The account says that he and another soldier, named Charles S. Blakely, were sitting on the railroad track near the Home, as inmates of the Home had been in the habit of doing, when the south bound train came in sight, and whistled. Both men arose, as if to get off the track, but instead, Demalarie ran toward the train, as if bent upon suicide. His companion ran after him, and tried to pull him off, but the locomotive struck him, throwing him high into the air, and killing him instantly. Blakely had an arm broken, and was otherwise severely hurt.

Demalarie was an Englishman, evidently descended from French stock of the time of the Conquest. He was about 65 years of age. He came to America short ly before the Mexican War, and served in that war, in a Boston regiment. He afterwards came to Missouri, and served during the Rebellion, in the 25th Missouri Regiment. After the war, he followed painting for several years at Savannuh.

About twenty years ago he came to Troy, and for a number of years was clerk and general handy man about the Higby House. Drink was his besetting sin, and he became so unreliable that a few years ago he left the Higby House, and lived several years about St. Joseph and Sa vannah. Sometime last year he returned to Troy, and again worked for a few months at the Higby House. But he had become too feeble to do much, and about a year ago went to the Leaven worth Sol diers' Home.

If not drunk at the time he was killed, he was no doubt laboring un der mental derangement caused by drink ing. We believe he was once married, and had one or more children but on account of his habits, his wife left him. The family are perhaps still living about Sa vannah.

Miss Nellie St. Armond's ae rial ascension at 4 o'clock was a grand success. After arising to a height of over a thousand feet, she swung from her air ship and safely descended to earth by the aid of her parachute. The descent was grand and thrilling. The horses and other animals with this show are the finest in the land.

They are fat and sleek, and bear evidence of careful handling. A special feature of the London show is the ease and quietness with which all work about the grounds is done. There is a total absence of confusion and profanity, so common with circus men. The employ ees are courteous to the public and to ward each other, reminding one of a pleasant family.

Baird died at his home at this place, after a lingering illness of nearl one year. About Sept. 1, 18S9, deceased received a stroke of paralysis, which affected his entire right side, since which time he had been nearly helpless, until the end came. His wife has been his constant and devoted nurse, and her strong constitution was taxed to its utmost to endure the great mental and physical strain which it has passed through. Jim, as he was familiarly known, was a character in himself.

An old soldier from Pennsylvania, he would sit down and recount his experiences and exploits by the day, and never seemed to tire of it. He was one of those happy fellows who would enjoy himself whether lying in camp or on the march whether a soldier or civilian, whether a farmer or a tradesman; he was the same eccentric Jim. His son and daughter, Cloyd and the children of his first wife, were with him when he died. The funeral was conducted with the honors of the G. A.R., of which he was a member.

Under the folds of the dear old flag for which he fought he was borne to his last resting place. When the great Reveille shall sound, and the thousands of slumbering blue-coated warriors shall awake, may our friend Jim be one of those who shall receive honorable mention from the great Captain, at the general muster of the last day. Peacefully he sleeps in the beautiful cemetery at Highland, by the side of his first love. Miss Lena Stilwell, who has been sick for several months past, died on Monday morning, Aug. 4th, of consumption.

After all the suffering which she endured, death must have been a welcome guest. Lizzie, wife of Eugene Smith, died at St. Joseph, Sunday, Aug. 3d, of typhoid fever. She leaves two little children, the elder about five years, and the younger only a few months old.

Mr. Smith had re sided in our city for several years past, until a couple of months since they moved to St. Joe, where he had secured steady em ployment. In this, his great bereavement, he has the sympathies of his many friends in this locality. The Annual School Meeting at this place passed on very quietyl, with an un usually large turn-out, due probably to a little wire-pulling which was slyly carried on for a couple of days before the meeting.

An eight months' term was voted, for the first and primary grades, and five months for the intermediate. J. A. Camp bell was elected treasurer, vice P.E. Plank, elected one year ago, to fill the unexpired term of J.

Vernon, son of Mr. and Mrs. Whitlow, of Highland Station, aged two years and five days. Clothed in the rotei of childhood, happy in the hopes of his youth, fresh in the fragrance of his innocence, loving in the soul of his beauty, sweet in the affections of his ender years, little Vernon met the icy kiss of his death winged angel, and laid down to the dreamless sleep of death. Loved ones gathered around him in the last saa nours, to gaze witn tearful eyes upon a body changed to dust to feel with aching hearts the absence of the loving soul that had so lately flitted away like a butterfly, to the sunny region of eternal rest.

But oh how comforting to those who lost him, think how happy he must be in Paradise. How cheerfully his voice is singing in the song-worship of his Savior, the music of which is joined in the song that pours from the child-angels' heaven. How sad to see the children die to see their flowery faces faces fade in the pallor death to lose the cheerful sound of their happy voices in the darkness of the grave and after all, while the earth is draped in tears, the bow shines forth in heaven.

Kentzler, daughter of the late Theodore Kentzler, in the 29th year of year of her age. Again are we called upon to give up one who was ever ready and willing to do something for the benefit and happiness of others. The deceased hod lived in this neighborhood from infancy, and was lov ed and respected by all who knew her.

church, in January 2l 1886, sfnee which time she has been a faithful worker in the church and Sunday school. Every day are we made to realize the shortness of this life. Death comes when it is least expected, and had our wish been granted, this dear one would have been spared many years. But we may take comfort in the thought that our loss is her eternal gain. She was wholly consecrated to God, and was fully resigned to His will.

A great sufferer for months, she patiently and uncomplainingly endured, the cheerful soul seeming to grow stronger as the body grew weaker. Full of the peace that passeth all understanding, she fell asleep in Jesus. "AM day long ire watched and waited. waited at our darling guie, While her frail bark slowly United Out upon a shore-lew tide. We had wept in bitter anguish.

We had prayed with burning tears. While our hearts drew back an'righted. Looking down the lonc-Horne years. All in vain our tears and pleading, All in vain oar Morrowing We could only watch and listen For the coming of the King." See J. XV.
