They paid op Prices of meats vary so little in Sedalia that for the purposes of this article, they are Dot included. The housekeeper who went to the market yesterday, to secure the material for today's dinner, discovered that vegetables and fruits cost money.

This will be seen in the retail figures which ruled yesterday for the articles specified, as given herewith. Spinach and mustard greens are going out of date, and sell at ten cents a gallon. Radishes, whether home-grown or brought from St. Louis, are sold, three bunches for a dime. New cabbage are worth from five to six cents a pound.

They come from Louisiana and California not many from the latter place. New peas from Mississippi are held at forty cents a gallon. Three bunches asparagus cost ten cents. Soup bunches, which are brought from St. Louis, retail at two for 15 cents or four for a quarter.

Four bunches of pie plant bring a dime, only, and cheap at half the money. String beans, from the south, of course, cost 65 cents a gallon. The large butter lettuce fetches fifteen cents for a couple of head, while the home-grown costs a nickel a head. Onions are cheap the new Bermuda bulbs, however, are worth $1.25 a peck. New potatoes are fifty cents a peck; and the old variety is twice that much a bushel.

Cucumbers and cauliflower are too high for this market, yet. In the way of fruits, bananas are retailed at 25 or 30 cents a dozen. Strawberries, the crescent seedling, from Benton, Arkansas, bring from 25 to 30 cents a quart box. Not many of these excellent berries go to make a box full. As for fish and fowl, spring chick ens of small dimensi )ns retail for 25 and 30 cents, according to size; teal duck are worth $2 per dozen.

River fish, such as buffalo, cat and croppie, retail for 10 cents a pound for the first, 12A for the cat, and 15 cents for the croppie, Lake fish all through sell for 15 cents. Red snapper is also held at this price. Salt water haddock bring 124 cents a pound. The market is prettv liberally sup plied with some of the aforementioned edibles and is scant on others. The prices triven are those of a leading dealer in table supplies.

Joseph Cook's lecture Friday even- iog at the Cumberlaod Presbyterian church was listeoed to by a large au dience, his subject bemg Ultimate America." The speaker was atten tively listened to, and his remarks were highly enjoyed by all.

Mr. Cook is one of the wost popular lecturers on the platform, and his ideas are always expressed in the choicest language. His treatment of difficult subjects is quite original, but he is al ways intellegible and pleasing to bis audience. The two lectures were a treat to cultivated Sedalians, as was testified by their crowding the church on both evenings. SO MISTAKE DONT HESITATE FOR THIS IS THE FIRST!

DURHAM, 308 West Main Sedalia, Mo. loft me mm A ma Tnrko The Knights Templars, The ritual for the Knights Templar religious service for ascension day, May 19th, has just been compile ted and is not only a beautiful momento of the art preservation and of the occasion, but shows that the ser vices will be one of the most beautiful and mpressive evsr held, and in keeping with the grand principals of the order and the solemn occasion which calls them forth. A Strange Case. The Clinton Advocate contains tbe following account of a singular and sad case of disease 4 4 Yesterday af-ternooD Bud O'Neal, of Mayesburg, accompanied by Dr. Miller, came to this city bringing with him his two year old babe, a bright, intelligent looking child, to have the doctors examine its throat for stricture.

He went to Dr- Britts, who, upon examination, called in several of his professional colleagues. It was attempted to insert a small probe into the oesophagus, when it was found to be en tirely closed. In last September the child drank concentrated lye and by the strongest endeavors the life of the child was saved, but the mem bran ce of the month and throat was eaten away by the potash, and since that time the child has been able to swallow only milk or gruel. Last Monday was the first time it became wholly unable to swallow, and since that tima its parents have been obliged to see their little idol go without nourishment while they have plenty of the good things of life. Upon consultation, the doctors thought it a hopeless case, and though their hearts were touched by the sad conclusion, they were forced to tell the sad lather that they believed nothing could be done for his child's relief.

It is probable that the stricture extends to the stomach, and if so, the operation of splitting the gullet and inserting a tube would take the life of the little sufferer. Nourishment might be given by inserting a tube into the stomach, but the operation would be a dangerous one, and besides being a constant care, the life of the child would be continually imperiled. Mr. O'Neal expected to take the child to Kansas City to-day to consult with men eminent in the surgical profession regarding the chances of his child's life, but carrying small hopes and a heavy heart. The case is truly a sad one.

The babe is the only child of the fonoT parents and if they are compelled to see the little one starve to daatb, their heart's agonies will be untold. Police Court There was an even half dozen delinquents before his honor the recorder, yesterday morning. James Hanley, a country youth of perhaps twenty years, was arrested for a plain drunk, but when he sobered up this morning he was found to be insane, and the charge against him was dismissed. He insisted, however, on making the court a speech, and it required the united efforts of the court and the police to prevent him from giving a specimen of his eloquence. David Marks was found drunk in a box car.

He was let off with a $6 fine, $5 for the drunk and one for trespass. He claimed that he was a railroad employe and was hunting a conductor to take him back to Pleasaot Hill. Just how he expected to find a conductor in a box car he did not explain. Perry Morton, a black, villianous looking coon, was arraigned for disturbing tbe peace. He showed a great deal of impudence toward the court and claimed to be a bruiser from away back, but finally admitted that the extent of his valorous deeds was to attack women, and that he had on this occasion mashed his own wife's mouth.

Notwithstanding which he was given but five days on the rock pile. It is to be hoped when be gets out that seme muscular wench will take him across her knee and give him such a dressing as will teach him that even a woman is able to fight a little. Wm Crowley and H. J.Nichols, charged with tresspass, were fined five dollars each. Crowley being required to pay an additional penalty for costs ofii.

A commitment was ordered to issue for Wm. Craig on account of his failure to pay a fine and court adjourned. CHANGED HANDS. Quigley Co. Pay the Purchase Money For the Sedalia Waterworks.

J. B. Quigley and Theodore Plate, of the Quigley water works company, were in the city yesterday and paid into the city taeasury $95,000, purchase money for the Sedalia water works, and franchise for the next twenty-five years, preparatory to taking formal charge of the same to-morrow morning. The gentlemen say that the contemplated improvements and extension of the works will be at once vigorously pushed to completion. All the new engines, stand pipes, fire plugs, mains and branch pipes have been contracted for and are now en route to the city.

Commencing to-morrow the company assume control of the works and will collect all the revenue for the same, and all contracts for water hereafter will be issued in their name. TRAIN TALK. Items of General Information for the Especial Benefit of Railway Men. The first fast mail in connection with the St. Louis and Sedalia fast mail line, between Schcll City and Eldorado made the run yesterday.

The St. Louis and Central Illinois will shortly build a summer hotel on the bluffs of the Mississippi at some point between Grafton and Alton. It also has in contemplation the extension of its line to Alton during the summer. Conductor Joyce, formerly in the employ of the Missouri Pacific, was was in charge of the train containing the state officials which was wrecked Dear Horton on the Rock Island Tuesday. Ail of the officials received slight injuries, but Joyce was badly hurt in the chest.

By the middle of August trains will be runing over the tracks of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe from Kansas City into Denver. A great many men are working between Pueblo and Denver on the extension and have reached Monument, and are making rapid progress. Jay Gould, just returned to New York from a sixteen days' trip of 6000 miles into the Southwest, says "So far as the Missouri Pacific is concerned, the action of the trunk lines is of sritling importance. I had a statement prepared to show how much passenger business we received from the Eastern lines and it was too small to talk about It is probable that Col. A.

C. Dawes, General Passenger Agent of the Kansas City, St. Joseph and Council Bluffs and Hannibal and St. Joseph roads, will go to Portland, Ore. to accept the general management of the Oregon Navigation Company.

He has been Geoeral Passen- fer Agent of the Kansas City, St. oseph and Council Bluffs road for sixteen years. V. A. Beatty, one of the oldest locomotive engineers in the west, died at his residence in Slater, Mo.

from the effects of chloral. Abut ten days ago he had the misfortune to burn the flues out of the boiler of his engine, for which he sent in his resignation, aod since that 'time he has been rather despondent. Tuesday night he asked his wife if there was any whisky in the house, and on being told there was none, he picked up the bottle of chloral and drank the contents. Everything possible was done by the physicians, but he uever recovered consciousness. He leaves a wife and family.

His remains were shipped to Baltimore, for interment. The unfortunate man was well known to many railroad men throughout the state. THE FARM GARDEN. How It Can Made Soaree of Both Pleooo.ro ind Profit. Many persons attach no value to the labor of garden work, especially when it affords them a mode of healthy outdoor exercise, but whether a garden be only a very small plft or a larger area, the advantages derived depend upon the skill, care and labor of the person who has charge of it It is true that, while those who cultivate hundreds of acres of "truck" can pr- uce vegetables much more cheaply than those whose plots are too small to permit of the use of improved implement, the gardener who grows his vegetables for home use secures a freshness and quality that can not be obtained with vegetables that are purchased.

There is iiite a difference between the pulling of a ripe tomato from the vine and placing it on the table and the selection of one from a basket that haa been shipped over a distance of rail, and which may have been taken from th vines two or three davs before. But there is also another advantage in family gardening other than the freshness and quality of the small fruits and vegetables grown, wuica is the choice of varieties. Two or three kinds of squash, several of peas, as well as different arieties of beets, beans, berries and even of melons, if space allow of their growth, will permit of catering to the preferem-es of every member of the family. With the selection of varieties come proper care and judicious working with the hoe. and it is in this manner that the younger members are taught their first lesson in practical agriculture.

It said that a boy who works on a farm where his duties call for milking the cows, plowing the fields and cultivating the crops, does not have that fonnes for farm life that is peculiar to the one who is given a small garden anti early taught to take an interest in it It is often the case that ladies are benefited by light work in the garden, especially if they are iMsmted in observing the different stages of the growth of plants, and when the farmer's wife, and the children become interested the cost of the labor may be really considered as nothing, wiiae the saving of doctor's bills and the enjoyment of garden luxuries moiv than compensate for the care bestowed. It every farmer would have a garden and take an interest in it it would greatly add to the comfort and enjoyment of farming, as well as prove very profit able.
