R. Milliox and family were called to Lagrange not long since to visit his sick mother, who died on Thursdav of last week. Now the little hoy of Mr. Million is quick sick at Lagrange. Mrs.

Mixter returned from her visit to Glasgow last Saturday, where she had been to see her father, Mr. Iglehart, who was very sick of pneumonia. We are glad to 6tate she left him much improved. R. D.

VrxcEXT, who has been buying stock cattle for J. D. McCann, of Paris, Monroe county, has col lected about 40 head i cows, 7 bulls and the remainder 2-year-old heifers. It is his expectation to drive them overland to Monroe county, and to start next Jlonday. C.

A. Glore has bought Oscar Forrest's interest in the boot and shoe store of Glore fc Forrest, and will continue the business at the same place. Mr. Glore is a prac tical shoemaker, and, therefore, is especially competent to run a boot and shoe store in first-class style. Our popular township collector came to town last Saturday with a broader smile spread put over his countenance than usual.

We interviewed him, and learned the cause the recent arrival of a little girl claiming quarters at his house; weight eleven pounds. Wesley Agee has superseded Thos. Mackay n.s clerk in M. W. Anderson's store.

Tom will probably start to St. Louis in a few days, cither to at tend school or seek employment In some wholesale house. "Wes." is a courteous and clever young xnan, would be glad to see his friends at his new place of business. A number of onr friends who moved to Kansas last spring have been quite unfortunate recently. Several head of horses, belonging to various parties, have died of "blind staggers." These misfortunes are very discouraging, and we trust that they may find a remedy to arrest any further "seriousness of this disease.

W. C. Turner and. James Orme and family started for Kingman county, Kansas, Thursday evening. They had previously been out on a prospecting tour, and were pleased with the outlook.

We wish these gentlemen good luck, and trust that they may find in Kansas a land of prosperity. Mr. Turner's family will visit a few weeks among relatives before leaving for Kansas. R. W.

Greex and J. A. Redding, who live near Westville, recently sold their fat cattle and hogs. Mr. Green sold to Wisdom Buffington 20 head of cattle at 5 cents, and 50 head of hogs at 5.10 cents per pound.

Mr. Redding sold to J. L. Veal 1 car load of cattle and 30 head of hogs at 5 cents all round. Mr.

Veal will feed a while before shipping. John P. Wixx, who has all his life lived in the southeast corner of the county, near Switzler's old mill, has bought the Lrmger farm, bordering on the city of Salisbury, and will move to it in a short time. Mr. Winn I makes this change because of better educational facilities, as he has a large and interesting family of children, which he wishes to give the advantages of a good school.

And we are glad that our wide-awake sister eity of the prairie furnishes that kind. The amount paid the assessor for assessing the county in 1872, when we were under the old system, amounted to $1,017 45, and for 1878, $1,105 29. The aggrej gate cost of assessing by townships, under the township organization system, for 1884'0is $1,045 38. This, however, includes listing 2,081 dogs at 10 cents per list, for which there was no law under the old system. It is justly claimed that the additional cost of assessing by townships is more than compensated for by the closer collections made by township collectors, as compared with the old county collector system.

Besides, the township organization seems to suit the people best, and though it is a little more expensive than the "old system, we' shall not seriously. object while the people arc suited. What the Conrier Would Like to Know. If Zil. has found his lost What has become of Keytesville pet poet? If our modest barber is training for a walking match?

If the people of Keytesville think that thejr will make a certain mem ber of the Bachelor Club get married before he wants to About a year since we mentioned in the Courier that some of Howard county's best citizens were moving to Chariton.

Very recently we have welcomed James j- Humphreys and Major J. H. Finks, who have cast their lots with the good people of Salisbury. While we sympathize with the people of Howard bceause of the loss they have sustained in the removal of these clever gentlemen and their familie's, we rejoice that they have settled in Chariton. We formed the acquaintance of Messrs.

Iumphreys and Finks when we were all young men, twenty-seven years ago. uc nave kept trade oi mem pretty closely sinpe, and iiever heard of anything mean being laid to their charge. May they never regret their coming among us.

F. Furnish. For some time past the store of John Saunders, at Dal ton, has been burglarized of numerous small articles, but iiht'l recently all efforts to catch the burglar have been fruit less. On last Monday night the store was again entered, and several small articles stolen. On the following day John Eidson, a son of Julius Eidson, was found in possession of some goods, which Mr.

Saunders claimed that he could identify. A warrant was sworn out for Eidson's arrest, and he was arraigned before 'Squire Carson on last Thursday. At the preliminsry trial the goods were identified, and Eidson is now incarcerated in the county jail at this place to await the action of the grand jury. He is generally considered a "brick," and has looked through the bars of our county jail from the inside before. The Old English Gardner will be in Brunswick every Saturday and Salisbury every Monday throughout March and April with vegetable and garden seeds all of the most improved varieties.

I will have fine drumhead cabbage seeds at Charley SchelPs restaurant for sale. Remember, you will get more good seeds and of the first quality for 50 cents than you can get for $2 of any salesman in America. 'Old ExiLisn Gardner, Keytesville, Mo. Isx it about time that our city marshal was organizing another cm sade against the worthless curs that infest our streets nightly? We are of the opinion that some wholesale killing of dogs would be wholesome to our citizen. uixnell Having tried the mer cantile business to his satisfaction, has concluded that farming suits him better.

Not long since he disposed of his interest in the store to his partner, E. M. Wheeler. He has bought the farm of John P. Williams, two miles south west of Keytesville, for which he paid $40 per acre.

There are 80 acres of splendid land in the tract. Considering the quality and location of the land, it is cheap Air. imams win give possession in a few days, and will go to California, where his wife's relatives live, un less he changes his notion and buys again in old Chariton. At Wm. Hensley's sale, on last Monday, two ordinary scrub cows brougnt $78 one 7-year-old sold for $40 and the other, a fi-j-ear-old, sold for $Srf.

Household and kitchen furniture brought a fair price. Hogs were sold at low figures. On the following day (Tuesday) W. C. Tur ner had a sale.

Two 2-year-old heifers brought $22 55 each. Corn in the crib brought $2 per barrel Other articles sold tolerably well, and Mr. Turner expressed himself as being satisfied with the result of the sale. Died. On Saturday, February 1, 1884, Mrs, Alice Curry, wife of Ly man Curry, aged twenty-five years of Chariton County, Mo.

10 that Tar away land, which is reached oidy through the valley and shadow of death, a devoted wife, true friend and loving companion has been taken in the morning, when her life was tinged with the golden hue of youth, and her pathway strewn with the flowers of ambition and hope unseen by mortals, she silently en tered the golden city, and the gates closed after her. To the afflicted husband and sorrowing friends we oner our earnest sympathy and con dolence. J. G. Wiseman.

We chanced, a few evenings since, to meet two of Keytesville' fairest "flowers." After engaging in con versation concerning some of the many phases of journalism one of tbem very modestly said: "We want to advertise. What. will you charge us?" Our usual rates, we informed her, for a single insertion, were ten cents a line, six words usually making a line. They thought they could get along with a single line, divided between them. "No," said one, "I can't possibly do with less than four words." "What are they?" we in quired.

With a crimson blush mint. ling her cheek she responded, after some hesitancy, "Mamie wants a beau." As quick as thought the other added, "Minnie, too." So here is the "ad." amie wants a beau. Minnie, too. Nice young men, clever widowers. fond and loving old bachelors (no other need apply) take notice and govern yourselves accordingly.

A note was received at this office sometime since from a young lady, in which she spoke of it being the heartfelt desire of another young lady that the editor of the Courier insert in the columns of his paper each week a local concerning the health of a certain young gentleman, for which she felt a great deal of anxiety. It must be confessed that the young lady's departure did not agree with him, for no sooner had she made her exit than his cheek began to grow pale, his eye sunken and his gait tottering. The tender passion which she had awakened could not survive without the pres ence of the bewitching creature, who first taught his heart to love. He is gradually growing worse, with little prospect of ever being his own sweet self again. Alas, you cruel damsel, come home and behold the wreck you have made.

The temper of one of our most amiable young gents was considerably ruffled last Sunday on account of an occurrence at church. We might say he was mad. It was not at what the preacher said, either, nor because his "boss" girl had gone back on him, but because his new hat, for which he had recently- paid 50, was spoiled. He knew that lenp year bestowed some privileges upon the gentler sex, not accorded them at other times, but was not apprised that the privilege of tearing his new hat to pieces in times of religious services was included among their peculiar rights- If 'so, he does not wish to see another leap year during his natural life. He wonders, also, if the mothers of girls who act that way in church reserve the right of correcting them at once, or will they have to let them pass till next year Jacob Caxtlix, of Cockrell township, was in the capital on Tues day of this week, and made, us a pleasant call, settling all arrearages and renewing for the Courier.

He tells the sad news of the recent lun acy of Ezekiel Smith, youngest son of 'Squire Smith, an old and highly respected citizen of that neighborhood. A number of surmises as to the cause of this greatest of misfortunes befalling Mr. Smith have been indulged in, but nothing positive is known as to the cause. Mr. Smith is about thirty-five years of age, roarr ried, and has several children His home relations have always been of the most pleasant character.

He, his family and aged parents have the sympathy of the entire community. Dr. Brooks is attending him, and the hope is indulged that he may effect a restoration to sound mind. Mr. James L.

veal in town on Monday last. From him we learned some sad items of news in reference to deaths in his neighbor hood, which are given below: Died, of pneumonia, after a brief illness, in Muscle Fork Township, on the 22d Mr. Lock, aged about 75 years. Deceased was the surviving widow of Harrison Lock, who died some years since. Probably no peo ple who ever lived in that section of the county ever had fewer enemies or more friends than this worthj' ccuple.

They were numbered among the early settlers. They raised large family, and several of their children still live in the same neigh borhood, while some have joined the silent majority. Mrs. Lock was a christian of many years growth, but she has been gathered to her Fath er's house, where "the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest." Her remains were laid away in the family burving-grottnd, there to rest till the resurrection mora May children and grandchildren fol low this sainted mother in Israel, as she followed the savior, and may all be gathered at last into the haven of eternal repose. At the same place, on Sunday last, the remains of Mr.

A. J. Green was buried. He, too, died of pneumonia, but had been complaining for several weeks." He was a member of the Masonic order, and was buried with the honors of thatliody, MFt Green. ya the prime and vigor of manhood, He had given heed to the things per taining to his future welfare, and was, as we trust, the happy possessor of the one thing needful that sustains and comforts while crossing the dark waters.

He has gone from labor to rest. That hacking cough can bo so quickly cured by Shiloh's Cure. We guarantee it. Will you suffer with Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint? Shiloh's Vi-talizer is guaranteed to cure you. Sleepless nights, made miserable by that terrible cough.

Shiloh's Cure is tha remedy for you. Cataarh Cured, health and sweet breath secured by Shiloh's Cataarh Remedy. Price 50 cents. Nasal in jector free. Martin Applegate, With thl3 week's issue we close the twelfth volume of the Courier.

Its career, from very small beginnings, has been "onward and upward. It has lived to see Keytesville, measurably, at least, cast off her dilapidated appearance, and put on the garb of a lively city of the fourth class. The wooden "shanties" iq which her merchants once did business have given place to imposing brick edifices. No other town in the State can now boast of better hotel accommodations, clever merchants and business men generally than Keytes ville. There is still room for growth and development.

The Courier will still assist every laudable enterprise to secure these. In the future, as in the past, the Courier will be Democratic in politics unswerving de votedly to the interests of the party. Yet not so intolerant as to refuse to hear those who may honestly entertain different views. We shall continue to labor especially to build up Keytesville, and as far as in our power assist our sister cities and towns of the county to grow. We shall encourage no local jealousies calculated to damage the interests of any part of Chari'on county, in any way mar her progress.

The Courier will assist in pushing for ward the car of progress at home. We honestly believe Chariton County is one of the grandest counties in one of the grandest States of the union, but none of her interests educational, agricultural, manufacturing or mining have yet attained the point of excellence her natural advantages will readily give. We shall work for all these interests, and do what we can to develop them. The Courier has a subscription list of which any country paper might be justly proud. Still, with our liberal offer to reduce the subscription price to $1 a year, it ought to be much larger.

We are working for this, and are succeeding well. We are endeavoring to give all the news of the county by giving a space in our columns for those who desire to have their several localities represented. We are very, thankful to our friends who have so kindly assisted and given us their patronage in the past. We hope to merit a more liberal patronage in the future.
