The Omaha Exposition The editor of the Courier has been a participant in many delightful trips during his 16 years' experience as a knight of the quill, but nothing to our mind has ever equalled the excursion that was given to the editors of North Missouri by the officials of the widely-known and justly-popular Burlington route to the Trans-Mississippi exposi tion at Omaha, on Thursday, July 14th. rr1 Ane courier eaitor man, accom panied by his family and sister-in-law, Miss Maude Smith, and three of Keytesville's accomplished young ladies Misses Amne and Bootsy Grinstead and Nettie Moore board 1 .1 ea tne waoasn west-bound tram at 6:09 o'clock a. m.

Shortly after leaving St. Joseph, Col.

Col Wakeley had evidently been out with editors before and knew that the best way to win a newspaper man's admiration and esteem was to attempt to appease his appetite, a thing which an editor always has with him and couldn't get rid of if he tried ever so hard, as editors are not built that way. But the poor fellows enjoy trying to assauge their hunger, and therefore Col.

Wakeley was made happy by seeing us make the effort. And such a lunch We ate sandwiches and chicken salad, the finest that ever! tickled our palate, and dranklemonade 1 but we have not yet discov ered where the "sadness" came in un- es5 wa when WakeW kissed one of the handsomest ladies on the ei train while passing through a OF LADIES FINE SHOES One of the leading Schools of the West, High standard scholarship.

The editor of the Courier and those who were under his immediate care spent two days most charmingly in attending the exposition and taking in the attractions and seeing the sights of Omaha, which is a nice, clean and progressive city of about 140,000 population.

The exposition, while not on so large a scale as the world's fair, it is well worth one's time and money in going to see, tor it may properly be regarded as the world's fair in rainia- ture. Saturday the crowd in attend- ance was estimated at 100,000. A great many were present to do homage to Col. Wm. J.

Bryan, the Nebraska statesman and patriot, who was there wjth his company of soldiers for the purpose of bidding friends good-bye before starting for Havana to do bat- tie for their country. The loud and prolonged cheering that Mr. Bryan received last Saturday shewed that he still occupies a lofty place in the affections of the American people. Marriage Licenses. Wm.
