Itlstobehoped that all who desire

party in the approaching campaign
will start In now at the primaries.
Marshal McCabe arrested a bel
ligerent individual one day last week,
and was quietly marching him to the
Tolice Judge's office, when the fel
low suddenly and unexpectedly at
tempted to give leg ball. It was a
refreshing sight to see the marshal
stretching himself away towards the
Missouri river, and to the spectators
it was doubtless the most interesting
foot race, ever witnessed on Main
fctreet. The Marshal's shin bones
were a little too long to make the
race a fair one, and he succeeded in
arrestlug the fugitive before he crossed
ihg city limits.

We regret to announce that our
fellow townsman, W. D. Swan, who
has been so long with us as to be one
of the family, as it were, having now
closed out his business, will soon take
up his residence elsewhere. We are

operations in the future, but where
ever he ma' ohaace to rein in thecom
munity which receives him will re
ceive a good substantial business
man, for such we all know we have

On Saturday last a son of our
townsmen, J. Ii. Roy, was thrown
from a fractious horse and seriously
injured. The horse ran down to the

on Atlantic street in which he was so
badly injured that he died the day
following. The boy is recovering.

Dragging- Out Existence.
The nervous, weekly Invalid docs not en
joy life, but merely "drags out existence," as
the phrase is. Unfitted for the active pur
suits of life, and incapablo of partnkingof
its pleasures, to which health alone can give
a zest ; disinclined to boclal intercourse, and
a prey to melancholy, the valetudinarian is
indeed an object of pity. Yet there is noth
ing in all this that cannot be remedied by
that genial alterative tonic and nervine,
Hostettetter's Stomach Bitters, which sup
plies bencficient stamina, braces the nervous
system, and overcomes those bodily irregu
larities to which nervous weakness Is most
frequently attributable. Diseases of the
kidney and bladder, imperfectdlgestlon and
uterine troubles are fertile sources of debili
ty. Their eradication, however, becomes a
matter of certainty when Hostetter's Stom
ach Bitters are systematically used for that
purpose. The Bitters likewise annihilate
and prevent fever and ague and other debili
tating febrile complaints of a malarial na
ture, apnl
