The thermometer "stood twenty degrees below zero here on last- Tues- day moruing.

Some of our young ladies are agitat ing the proprietyof running the skating fink, in future, on the Adam-les3 Eden" plan. Noiie of the sterner sex will be admitted and should any attempt to enter the rink of feminine jurisdiction, they will be fired in the highest style of the art. We predict that the scheme will "prove a failure. Warxer Ford received returns from his cattle, shipped from St. Lonis to" Chicago.

He got 4 1 cents per pound. J. T. -Swam" received the same for bis cuttle, sold in St. Louis la3t Friday.

If there are aiiy of our citizens who expect to become candidates for city offices, at the election to be held on the first Tuesday in April, it is time they were making their announcements. We will announce any candidate, for any city office, for $3, and trust that those who expect to become candidates will favor ns with their announcements at an early day. Jcdge W. J. Park.s, who is putting up tobacco at Dalton, was in Keytesville last Tuesday and as jolly as ever.

Although his locks are turning silver gray he has much of the youthful feeling about him yet, as hi3 talk with senator Mackay while here abundantly proved. He in formed us that he is running a large force in the factory, assorting, and will begin prizing at an early day. We leana through the Central Missourian that J. W. Ileryford, of Glasgow, is seeking the position of U.

S. revenue collector for this, dis trict. A more suitable appointment could not be made, in. i-ur judgment. Mr; Ileryford has well earned the reputation of a good business man, and is thoroughly reliable.

lie is a native of Chariton county, though a zen of Glasgow for a number of years. Fraxk Dejarxett was town the other day, when we learned from him that he, is "doing something in the way of fine cattle; not only so but his enterprising neighbors are relieving him of some of his calves. He sold one to the Sasse brothers, not long since, which, at ten months old, weighed 760 pounds. A 1 short time previous he made another sale to the Goll brothers of equally as good a calf as sold the Sasse broth- ers, tnougn it was not weiguea. Both calves were sold at $50 each.

The skating rink was brought to disgracfe on fast Friday night by a party of younger boys, probably better known as the "kids," who get full and painted the town a sick ly, whitish color. 1 he paint was not acolied very evenly, hut there was an abundance of it. The principal ingredient of the paint was rip- roaringly enthusiastic whisky, which their stomaclis failed to find a conge nial companion. If these drunken boys could have only seen themselves as sober people saw them, we believe they would not repeat such a loathing and comtenltpible disgrce-' to them selves. Lamb and.

C. Miller has received large amount of tobacco at his facto ry- iasKie, nis clever son, is re ceiver and general manager. He is doing good wprk with 35 or 40 hands We visitedthe factory last week and were shown through it from garret to cellar. We found some good to bacco there. While the last year's crop is not of the best quality still it makes a wonderful difference in its appearance to be nicely assorted and re tied.

We hope that Mr. Miller, with favorable weather, will be able to take in the balance of the unsold crop at an early day. iuesdat was good day for re ceiving and weighing stock, notwith standing the mercury was 20 degrees Deiow zero in the morning and con-ued below zero all day. M. II.

Hol- comb weighed stock" as follows: 31 steers sold by Lon Richardson to C. McLain, aveuaged 1,211 pounds at 5 cents. Hog? were purchased by Owen Eidson as follows F. Chrane, 15, weighed L. H.

Hersing, 1, 480; W. W. Whiting, 12, 2,700 F. M. Welch, 14, 2,790.

Buyers are paying 4 cents for good hogs, while 5 cents for cattle is regarded as high, considering St. Louis and Chicago prices. The county court made an order last week, directing the clerk co ad vertise for bids to superintend the poor farm, the court reserving the ing the right to reject any or all bids. This is a departure from the lowest bid system for feeding the paupers, but we do not believe it was the best course to pursue, in order to get the right sort of superintendent. It would have been better," we.

think, for the court to have selected the the man and employed him becaus of his fitness for the place, regardless of a few dollars difference in the cost. As it is, there may be a dozen applicants for the place, every one of whom believes he is just the man that ought to have it, and will think hard of the court if every member thereof does not think just as he does. Mr. Silas West, son of Dr. W.

S. West, of Westville, who for sixteen years past has made his home in Montana, Nevada and Utah, returned to Chariton county on the 11th of January to visit, his father, who was then very sick. He remained till hi3 ather'8 condition was much improved and started for home, which is now at Silver Reef, Utah, ast Wednesday evening. In com pany with Mr. John Smith, his stepbrother, he called to see us and sub scribed for the Courier, which will give him the news from old Chariton for one year at least.

Mr. 'West who is a very pleasant gentleman, fluent in conversation, tells us that he is well pleased with Utah. It has a splendid climate, is excellent for fruit and vegetables of various kinds. While he 19 a brother-in-law to the Mormons, having married" a Mormon lady, he says the Mormons are the only sources of trouble. They mix up church and state, and at all elec-tious out vote the combined forces of the gentiles, Democrats and Re publicans.

The Mormon women vote and. being so numerous, they always1 elect their candidates at local elections. He informs us that the Mormons anxious to have their territory admitted as a state and are hopeful thatthis will be accomplished through Mr. Cleveland's administration. Somehow, they have the idea that Mr.

Cleveland will be more friendly toward them than former presidents have been. The gentiles of Utah, both Democrats and Republicans, are opposed to the admission of the territory. "Brad says while he was the Capital, Keytesville, last week, he learned something new, viz: That transpire means to. sweat. He says he goes there sometimes and does not gather any valuable information, but this time he struck it exactly.

He says small favors are thankfully received arid large ones in proportion. But now he: says he's troubled to know what to do with the word per spire, and ne wants mem iveytes-ville boys, who gave him the above information, to tell him what" to do with it. Come out, boys, and answer. not name you, but the Courier will give you space to answer in its columns, we know. -Also answer the questions of dispute as to who struck Pat Murphy? which is the but end of a goat? what is the difference between, a four-legged beast and a quadruped, ete, etc.

Bynumville Corresponded Press-Spectator. By "Brad" we suppose is meant our esteemed friend, Wm. II. Bradley, of Bynumville, attorney at law, notary public, etc. What we have to say is "Brad" was here about that time.

We saw him; we thought then he had things a little mixed, but supposed he got all straight before reaching home. The spell lasted him longer that time than ever before, nis is a clearcase of "give away." It may be a relief to some and new9 to others to know that Chariton county has been heard froui in the one-sided anti-whisky contest in the Missouri leris'ature. On last' Sat- petition rom citizens of Chariton county. Doubtless nine tenths of our people never heard such a peti tion was being circulated in the county. Was it a kind of a dark lantern concern, of whose existence only a favored few were apprised Or was it exhibited in the glaring light of open day Who were its champions, and whose signatures are found appended? are; all ques tions some people would like to know.

If all our legislators, and all our citizens were as anxious for the en actment of an efficient road law as thev are to show their standing on the whisky question, we might, rea sonably expect a great improvement in our highways in the next twelve months. There is complaint in re gard to roads being impassable all over the state. On this account thousands of farmers have very poor facilities for marketing their pro products. The necessity, of better roads and a better read law were themes discussed in the papers and among the people more extensively durins: the past year than ever be fore, and yet not a petition, so far as we are advised, has as yet been been presented to the legislature asking for a law that will secure bet ter roads, hue anti-prohibition petitions have been handed in by the score, lo assist in getting up anti-prohibition petitions, and pre senting them to the legislature seems to be the heighth of the average leg legislator's ambition during the pres ent assembly. It seems, with them, to be a sure passport to fame and immortality.

Senator Halliburton is getting to be an old man, he, prob ably because of age, will never grace the legislative halls rf state again. Having known bim from our boyhood, and appreciated his long public life, we regret his not, so far, having championed a measure more worthy of him, a measure calculated to be of more lasting good to his constituents, than an anti-prohibition petition. Ocr friend Bradley from Bynum ville, is in town thi3 week attending probate court. He says we mistake in charging him with "being mixed" while he was here last week, that he was never clearer in his perception in his life than at the time alluded to, and that some of the young men did use the word "transpire" as meaning to sweat. Now we feel a sympathy for him, because of his coming so far in such terribly cold weatherlto learn so little.

This he might have learned, by consulting his unabridged" at home. The two words, according to Webster, are derived from the same word. We give several of the primary meanings. 'Transpire." "To emit through the pores of the skin, to Stind off in va por, to pas3 oil insensinie perspi ration transpire iroui the human body." "Perspire." "To evacuate the fluids of the body through the pores of the skin, to sweat as a. person perspires freely, to emit or evacuate insensibly through the excretories of the skin." We also hear it suggested that Brad" possibly mistakes as to the source of his information, that he did not get it from the young men.

It is said by some that one of Efeytesville's young men is love afflicted with temporary insanity as it were. We believe the fellow who has a best girl i3 one of the most miserable on earth and, at the same time, has fewer sympathizers in fact he is an object of cold and uncharitable ridicule. The face which is dearer to him than any other in the wide world haunts him continually and the sonnd of her mellow voice is heard in every passing breeze and, even he betakes himself to a hollow stump and pulls the hollow in after him, that dear face and mel low voice are still seen and heard, and while he was in the hollowness of that stump, the commercial tra veler was abroad in the land and his best girl flirted wflh and 'caught on" to the fine-haired tramp. The Keytesville young man swears, by stump, that he will have nothing more to do with that girl, and has wisely concluded that a best girl and an- empty pocket-book are incompatible possessions. Eczema.

Eczema is one of the ugliest and most troublesome of all blood diseases. It proceeds from humors in the blood which are sometimes very difficult to eradicate. For five weary years'Mr. J. D.

Rodefer, of Grcendale, suffered terribly from this disease. He Wright "went after he hogs and "Finding no relief in the many medicines till I used Brown's Iron Bitters, I purchased three bottles; from the use of which I have obtain ed almost entire-relief. I recommend it to every one in my neighborhood for any disorder of the blood and as a general tonic." Shoo Fiji "What's in a name A rose- by another name would smell just as seem to think the gay young folks of the vicinity of Scrib-ner school house, who, since Christ mas, have assembled at what they call "play parties," two or three times in each week. It is Wonderful what difference some people make in the meaning or use of words for instance, plav and dancing. If the parties spoken of were called dancing parties, parents and- some voun2 people, especially those who are members of the church, would oppose them instead cf giving them encouragement.

I 'or tun name I in other matters, so in these parties, is a jewel." The most that can be said of the exercises at these parties is, that they consist chiefly in a kind of dance, suited to vocal instead of instrumental music The participants sing a song they call "Weevily and others of a kindred nature, They trip the light fantastic and go through all the orm3 of a regular dance. The noise they make in their tramp to the music in the still night time can be heard for a quarter of a mile. It reminds one of an "Old Vriginy break-down," I suggest to those interested to hire a fiddler, and go to the dance, and at tne aance rightly nave in structor, so that 3 ou can dance in the most approved style, of the art with ease and grace, but don't try to cheat the devil in the use of a word I.

JOHNSON." Mr Johnson is authorized to receive and receipt for Subscriptions, and any Adva tcsancnts handed to him will re ceive our prompt attention. Miss Sue Redd was taken ill on the last day of her school, but is now reported some better. Rev. J. M.

Gaiser (pronounced Gizer, i long) delivered a lecture on temperance at the M. E. and C. P. Churchon Tuesday evening.

His reverence was formerly disciple of Blackstone and meted out justice in the capacity of a lawyer in the Lone Star state, ne a fluent, forcible speak ei and in combatting sua strikes straight from the shoulder, 'i He has charge of the C. P. Church here. Oar city election will takeplace in April, and thus far these are two candidates for mayor: I. Morehead, pi esent incumbent, and Wm." A.

Thomas. The race for this office will, it is predicted, be close, as will also the race between Stephen Crawford, present incumbent, and R. M. ex-marshal, for the office of marshal. Heretofore politics has been generaly ignored in city affairs and personal popularity carried the man in, and we presume such will be the case this time.

Prof s. Culhn and Hurst are try ing to get up a private school to commence immediately alter tne close the public school. The only thing in the way is a place to teach in. At an election held for the purpose last fall, it was decided not to allow the public school building ts be used for private schools, and now that "action-must be set aside by an other vote before anything can be done. The Band of Hopei aside at tachment of the C.

T. TJ held a very interesting meeting "at the Presbyterian Church last Sunday. Rev. O. A.

Carr delivered a short address at the close of the meeting. The scarlet fever scare has subsided and our public school has resumed The open applicants for postmaster at this place are John Henderson, Dr. W. D. Wilhite and Jas.

B. all good men and' each backed by his friends. We have heard it intimated that then are other applicants but do not know this to be so. Rev. O.

A. Carr, of Columbia, has been conducting a series of meetings at the Christian' Church for several days. The audience has been rather small, but the attention has been remarkably, good. On Monday night he had promised to talk on the subject of "Sanctification," but owing to the inclemency of the weather few were out and the subject was postponed till Wednesday night. The first suit growing out of the recent adoption of the hog law, originating in this township, will be tried before 'Squire Newbold on Thursday.

-It appearsthat J. O. Thelps put up some hogs found running at large belonging to a Mr. Wright, a neighbor, and then notified the own- a quarrel ensued, resulting in Wright turning his hogs out andtakmg them home, and subsequently finding lam- self called on to answer a breach' of of the peace. A lively trial is ex pected.

This leads us to remark that other people's hoa, in some in stances, are still at large and suits will be commenced if the swmeare not housed up, so to speak. No man, in this county, is.Tequired to fence against swine now. "Homer," of Bynumville, has evidently been tampering with Keytesville's worst, but just how and where he got it has not "transpired," and we fear that like Tray, he has fallen into bad and come into contact with some, one's breath that was strong. We suggest that Homer wrestle a while with Webster, where he will find light on this, to him, erstwhile dark subject. Lon Branch, Clark Township.

ihe icy grasp cf winter -seems to. have suddenly released and as a result we- have plenty of water. Jl his may be unpleasant to some, but I suppose the miller will be glad to have an additional supply to en able him to grind the great amount of grain that comes to his mill. Theie was such an abundance of corn raised in this neignborhood last year that it has not all been gathered yet. It has enabled the farmers to fatten a great many hogs, and they have found ready purchasers in the person of Wm.

Bills and others. Many of the farmers here have sold and delivered their toacco, some crops are still unsold. While some of our people are enjoying prosperity others are suffer ing adversity. Several houses have been burn ed in our neighborhood. Also the houses of Judge Rich mond and Wm.

Dean, not in this immediate vicinity, were burned, a few davs since. The latter was in sured but cannot say as to the for-mer. The school at the Maupin school house was taught this winter by Mr. David B. Lee, gave general satisfaction.

Quite a large crowd, attended the closing exercises yesterday, which consisted of examinations in the morning, singing, speeches, dia logues, and essays in the evening. While all seemed to enjoy the exer cises, they were equally well pleased with the bountiful supply of refresh ments served to them from a long table that almost croaned under its burden. With two or three excep every parent in the district was present to witness the closing exercises of the school, filled baskets. It did the children good to see so many of the dear old faces that had greeted them before. We will not forget to mention that the teach er treated his scholars bountifully with nuts, raisins and candy.

After spending the day so pleasantly, chil dren and parents returned to their respective homes feeling that its memory will be a bright spot to re call in day3 to come. A. After nearly three months of suf fering from the dreadful hurt received in the mines at Leadville, Charles Smith reached hom last Thursday night. Mrs. Ward his mother, hav ing received word that he was not doing well in the hospital at Leadville, determined to go and see what a mother's presence would do for a son hovering between life and death.

On reaching Leadville, she was ad vised by the doctor that a xemoval could not lessen Charlie chances for recovery. In fact the climate of Colorado, with its lofty altitude and dry air was working against him. A removal was at once- agreed upon. Dr. McLean who had visited him twice a day since the accident, and his faithful nurse, a Mr.

Pearson, with whom Charlie was previous to his being hurt, agreeing to come along and assist in getting him home. The trip was a severe one for one who was paralyzed, and limbs broken, but Charlie stood it well, and strong hoxes for his recovery are entertained by Dr. Dewy, 10 is now attending him. His back was broken, but the bones have knitted together again, one bone of his right leg was broken also, and his lo trer body and limbs were paralyzed, these are being re stored to feeling again. His greatest troubles were bed pores, which would not heal in Colorado, but it is hoped will heal in this lower altitnde.

Charlie's call was a close one, he wa3 fortunate in being in the employ of a company amply able to pay all damages. Tod much, in our judgement, connot be said in praise of Dr. McLean and Mr. Pearson, who have been so attentive to Charlie in this terrible calamity, while faraway from loved ones and home. They show that in the ruggedmountains of the far west, there are some noble specimens of mandood left.

They returned home last Sunday. Townsiip Primary Election. To the Democratic voters of Keytesville township.
