Messrs. W. V. CYmtos and Henry R.
Gering returned from their land
vlewinj; trip into southern Missouri
last evening, and aro luuch elated
over their Huceey.-i. Thoy visited Jop
lin, Springfield, West Plains, Hous
ton ai d other place", and were much
interested in the country through
which they paed.
In an interview with a N r:vs re
porter, Mr. Jering said : "That whole
Ozark region in an iuteroftingentntry
to visit. In many places tho upland
country is covered with limtone
from ti e size of a hiokorjnut to that
nf a iiiiiii'h head an if it h d been
macadamized 'ixi scrubby white oak
tree?, whilo in large section a heavy
growth of while ortk covers a foil of
fair productiveness. Much mineral
wealth uxists in all that region, al
though Utile ha-t been done lt develop
anything except Iho lend mines about
Joplin and Carthago. .Joplin, by the
way, is tho busiest town 1 ever saw.
Fruit growing is reaching fair devel
opment, and apple-, peu' he, nlums
and grapes at e grown in great abun
dance and w.th rate s'.ccos.s. espec
ially is t h is It u.- of the region about
Wc4 Plains, and from there west to
Springfield and north to Holla. The
westward rush of population for lands
seems to have ovorh okod the oppor
tunities presented in this part of Mis
souri and left heie huge sections of
arable land, in a most healthy and de
lightful climate, wilhoul H market."
"What took us to that region? Walt
Seeley, a purchasing agent of the Bur
lington road, called Mr. Coates' atten
tion to tho fact that an English syn
dicate, which owned a large body of
land in Texas, Shannon, Howell and
other counties, in tho settlement of an
estate of odo of its members was
obliged to t ell a largo body of its hold
ings by September first, and that it
would probably go for a song and
would bo a big bargain for somebody.
Mr. Seeley had shown his faith in that
country by investing in some of its
lands, and on his representation wo
wont. Wo sought out the land
that was for sale nnd after
traveling over it and exam
ining it, we bought 122,000 acies at a
prieo vhich, if wo were to sell it at $2
an acre, would net us a good profit
This land has a good s-oil and is nearly
all covered with a heavy growth of
white oak timber and there is not
forty acres that cannot be cultivated
to advantage. Our land is near the
head of Jack's Fork, in the southeast
part of Texas county. Mineral out
croppings are abundir.t, and to test
its value, I took a sample specimen to
an assayer at Joplin and'got nn assay
of it. The assav shows '412 per
ceat pure copper, 11.40 of iron and ( 72
of silica, etc.,' showing a value of $147
to the ton of copper whilo the large
percentage of iron aids to its iluxing
qualities
"A railway has been built from
nolla south to Salem, and if this is
built on south to West Plains, as now
projected, it will pass within a few
miles of our purchase, m iking our
timber available for shipment and use
for ties and piling which would
largely enhance the value of our pur
chanso. But in any ovent wo are well
satisfied that we have got a good bar
pain, as we have already been offered
over S,OP0 in' advance of the price we
paid for tho land. Twelve thousand
acres of our land iies in one body,
whilo the balano? is not much scat
tered. AH of that country is unusu
ally well supplied with spring water,
and water power for mills can be
found almost everywhere."
As the writer hereof spent some
three months of the spring of 1802
scouting all over that region in Uncle
Sam's service he can verify every word
of Mr. Gering's description of that
country.

Appointment of Shrlton and Waugli
Will Not Affect brank' Quota.
WASniNUTOX, Aug. 24 The ques
tion arose today whether the appoint
ment of Shelton and Waugh of Ne
braska to be second lieutenants would
atlect Iho Ktata quota under the new
call for ton regiments of infantry. As
sistant Secretary Meiklejohn of tho
war department said he had examined
tho appointments and found that both
Shelton and Waugh were now in tho
army and their new commissions were
in tho nature of promotions, but
through somo inexplicable manner
had found their way on tht bulletin
board of tho war department as new
appointmen Is and were so sent out.
Ho said their appointment would not
alTt.'et Nebraska's quota under new con
ditions in the least.
Theieis undoubtedly a disposition
on tho part of t-enators and represen
tatives fom Nebraska to mako haste
slowly in recommendations for places
in the line of tho army under the new
call for troops. There is quite a feel
ing prevalent that the First Nebraska,
which has been much the hardest ser
vice of the three regiments from that
state, should be favored in the matter
of commissions and considerable
weight will ba attached to Colonel
Mulford's suggestions as to who of tho
otlicers of the First Nebraska should
be retained in the new provisional
artnj' now recruiting throughout the
country, llyan of the First Nebraska
will probably bo commissioned cap
taiu, but concerning others recom
mended by Governor Poynter, thei e
is considerable speculation. Captain
Marple, Lieutenant W. G Doane and
Major Williams stand high in military
circles, but they may not be able to
iand commission?, as pressure is being
brought to bear for W. C. Taylor,
major of the First Nebraska, and for
Co eman, Russell and Weber for first
lieutenants.
Mr. Meiklejohn said today it wis
his intention to be in Lincoln upon
the oc'-asion of the reception to be
tendered tho First Nebraska, Septem
ber 14. Ha stiil.d that he doubted
very much whether President McKin
ley could be present, as he would be in
Chicago about th.;t time on tho oc
casion f tho iaying of the corner
sloue for the new posioflieu building
there. Said he:
"In th event of the president's fail
ure to ne present upon the ccoa-dou of
the reception to Nebraska's fighting
First, I hope to be the bearer of a
m- ss.ige from him to our boys who
have made so distinguished a record
for themselves and their state."
Ml Meil'lejrttin will probably leave
Washington about September 10.

"When. I graduated from the law
school." said the old lawyer, with a
reminiscent smile, "I took Horace
Greeler'8 advice and went West. I lo
cated in a little town that then was
on the frontier and waited with the
confidence of youth for clients. Before
I had fairly opened my office I was re
tained to defend a man for stealing a
horse. This elated me very much, for
I was not aware at the time that the
case had been refused by all the other
lawyers in town, as defending a horse
thief was not a thing to be desired if a
man valued hjs life. The case came
to trial before an old Judge and jury
composed of bewhlskered ranchers.
There was no doubt that the man was
guilty, but he had a number of friends
who were willing to swear to anything,
and I thought it my duty to make the
best possible use of them. Thev were
all willing to swear that the defendant
was forty miles away from the spot
whea the horse was stolen, and the
prosecution was unable to break down
their testimony. I saw that I was go
ing to free my client, so It was with a
satisfied air that I saw the jury leav
ing the room to prepare their verdict,
They were back in five minutes, and
the old judge asked them if they had
succeeded in arriving at a verdict.
" 'We hev,' answered the foreman, aa
he shifted the gun he carried on his
hip. 'We find the defendant not guilty,
an' recommend the defendant's lawyer.
owin' to his youth an' innocence, to
the mercy of the' court.' While I was
gasping for breath the judge fined me
S500 and suspended sentence long
enough for me to get out of town. It
wasn't law, but I didn't stop to argue
the matter." Seattle Post-Intelli
