Sedalia Times

THE SEDALIA Laugh, and the world laughs with you; Weep, and you weep alone, For the sad old earth must borrow its mirth, But has trouble enough of its own. Sing, and the hills will answer; Sigh, it is lost on the air. The echoes bound to a joyful sound But shrink from voicing care. Rejoice, and men will seek you; Grieve, and they turn and go. They want full measure of all your pleasure, But they do not need your woe. Be glad and your friends are many; Be sad and you lose them all— There are none to decline your nectared wine, But alone you must drink life's gall. Feast, and your halls are crowded; Fast, and the world goes by. Succeed and give, and it helps you live, But no man can help you die. There is room in the halls of pleasure For a large and lordly train, But one by one we must all file on Through the narrow aisles of pain. MARRIED AND GONE TO KANSAS CITY. Rev R C Smith, ex-pastor of the Free Will Baptist church, was married last Wednesday to Miss Lottie Johnson, of this city, at the residence of Mr and Mrs Charles Almonds on North Washington Ave. The ceremony was performed by Deacon Harrison White who, with a few "off hand" remarks commanded the groom to salute his bride, and then made them man and wife. At an early hour the newly made couple boarded the west bound train for Kansas City, Kansas, where he will spend his honeymoon. We congratulate him on the successful termination of a battle in which he has been engaged for a year or more. THREE YEAR OLD BABY DEAD.

The best paper in a community always brings ample returns to its advertisers. The best paper covers the cream of the trade in any section. Mark Twain says: "Behold the fool saith: 'Put not all thine eggs in one Mark Twain says: "Behold the fool saith basket,' which is but a manner of saying, 'Scatter your money and your attention;' but the wise man saith: 'Put all thine eggs in the one basket and—watch that basket.'" "Which the same" applies equally to newspapers. Put your ad. in the best paper, and then watch the paper and the ad. Have a system of checking the returns received, and be very sure of this much: If the ad. doesn't pay, doesn't pay, the store—not in the paper. Something that nobody wants.

Colorado. All present enjoyed themselves and were highly entertained by Lady Kinney with solos and piano music, the Phillips brothers and Mrs Wm Ragland together with the many jokes of Mr Gravitt, Craghead, Ragland and others. About 11 o'clock lunch was announced and was served in courses by Mesdames Carter and Clark as follows: 1st—Ham sandwiches, sweet pickles with horseradish on half shell. 2nd—Fried oysters with spinach, sliced lemon and soda crackers. 3rd—California select grapes with half cranges. 4th—Ice cream, jelly and caramel cake. 5th—Coffee with buns. Among the guests were Misses Ella Williams, Messa Williams, Annie Clark; Meddane—Polly Fleming, Chas Brazair, Minnie Taylor, Hawkins, Wm Snobe; Warren Craghead and wife, W H Cartr and wife, Wm Ragland and wife; Messrs Edward Gravitt, Samuel Phillips and brother. The happy party, together with Mrs Ellen Williams, certainly spent a pleasant evening, and at the hour of 12 the many friends departed, expressing their best wishes toward M s Kinney and Williams for their hospitality. ALLFY-BRITT. Israel Allen and Maggie Britt were married last Thurdasday night. The affair was strictly private and on.y a few friends were present. Rev W C Williams officiated. No. 6. A. M.

The decisions of the United States Court on these subjects are interesting. 1. Subscribers who do not give express notice to the contrary are considered as wishing to renew their subscriptions. 2. If subscribers order the discontinuance of their periodicals, the publishers may continue to send them until all arrearages are paid. 3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to take their periodicals from the postoffice to which they are directed, they are responsible until they have settled their bills and ordered them discontinued. 4. If subscribers move to other places without informing the publisher, and the papers are sent to the former address, they are held responsible. 5 The courts have decided that refusing to take periodicals from the office or removing or leaving them uncalled for, is prima facie evidence of intentional fraud. 6 If subscribers pay in advance they are bound to give notice at the end or the time if they do not wish to continue taking it; otherwise the publisher is authorized to send it, and the subscriber will be responsible until an express notice, with payment for all arrearages, is sent to the publisher. ANDERSON BOUND OVER. Will Be Tried in Criminal Court for Thieving. Officer Ramsey went to Kansas City Monday and brought home James Anderson who is wanted here on the charge of robbing Huyssen & Holm's store. Anderson had been arrested by officers at the home of his mother in Kansas City. An overcoat, the only part of the stolen property was found at Anderson's mother's. Anderson claims he bought the overcoat and says he can prove it by Arthur Umbles. Arthur says he knows nothing of the matter. Anderson has been held to the criminal court. ITEMS OF INTEREST. Rev J W Stemmonds and wife were in this city Monday on their way to his new charge in Warsaw. The worthy couple have been in Frankfort, Kansas, for the past two years. Mrs Stemmonds will remain in our city for a short time. We wish him and his family much success in their new field of labor. The Colored Masons of our city had their annual sermon reached last Sunday at Taylor Chapel. The sermon was ably preached by P W M Rev C L Calhoun, assisted by Rev Debe. A large number of Masons were present as also was Young Commandery, which made an excellent appearance. The Morgan Street Baptist church is now undergoing extensive repairs. Over $100 will be expended in this direction which will include electric lights, papering and painting. The church will look second to none when completed. Rummage sales appear to be the only drawing attractions in the city now for poor white people and a few colored ones. The stores are crowded when there are any goods on hand. James Ramsey, known among his acquaintances as "Joskins," and A J William, who sails under the coo-nomen of "Turkey," engaged in a friendly scuffle in Chambers & Wheeler's barber shop, during which one of the large front window glasses was broken. The fun cost them $2.50 each. Rather expensive fun these hard times. The ladies of the Dorcas Sewing Circle served ice cream and a cake Wednesday night, in Mrs Cook's large hall on Lamine street, to a nice crowd of friends. The lunch consisted of ice cream, cake, and oyster soup. "Newspaper men," says an exchange, "have but one short vacation. It begins when the hearse backs up to the door and lasts till the cemetery is reached." The first quarterly meeting of the C M E church will be held at Sedalia on November 2nd and 3d, conducted by Rev J M Rivers, P E. All are invited. We hope to have a large attendance.

Sedalia now has an out and out republican daily paper since the Capital has changed hands. Some men get on in the world on the same principle that gives a man with a paint-pot the right of way through a crowd.

We wonder if the Sentinel feels any better or got any more subscribers from that rebel poem it published last Friday week entitled "Nigger In The White House" or do they think that the machine at the White House, democrat or republican, know that they are living? The article only went to show the rebel hatred and race prejudice that can exist in the hearts of some co-called Americans. In no sense of the word did it meet with the indorsement of the Pettis county democrats. They considered the source from which it came and let it go with the winds. The Afro-American council has inaugurated a movement to test the constitutionality of the Negro disfranchisement laws in certain states of the south. Proceedings have been brought in the courts of Louisiana. One of the cases involves a charge of conspiracy to disfranchise the Negro, and the other mandamus proceedings to purge the registration books of the names of all illiterate persons, white as well as black. A favorable decision in the second case, some republicans think, will result in the removal from the books of the names of so many white persons that the dominant party would be greatly weakened. The Afro-American council is also endeavoring to obtain a reduction of congressional representation in the states where disfranchisement laws.

It is improbable that the numerous and varied disfranchisement laws passed by some of the southern states will be allowed to stand. The courts will see to it that the southern Negro is given his constitutional rights. Senator Tillman is credited with saying that it will take the deaths of a thousand colored people in the south to efface the insult offered that section by President Roosevelt by eating at the same table with Booker Washington. Tillman is rapidly growing from bad to worse. He is evidently insane on the Negro question it he made the remark which is credited to him. There is nothing to give occasion for such unchristian, un-American remarks. The better element in the south sees nothing in the entertainment of Washington by the President and many of the better class have come forward and are condemning the prejudiced utterances, of those men who are suffering from Negro mania.

MEDICINE CO, 79 East 130th St N, Y City Short Talks on Advertising By Charles Austin Bates. No. 5. It is no doubt true that keeping your name continuously before the people will pay if you do it long enough, and nobody else does any better advertising than that. I do not believe in generalities. "All kinds of staple and fancy groceries"—"A full line of dry goods and notions"—Such things were said fifty years ago and some business men persist in the folly even now. All that a general ad ever does is to "keep your name and business before the people." Now, isn't your name and business kept before people just the same or a little better when you advertise some special thing or things? It surely is, and, besides that you have the benefit of a direct demand for the thing advertised. That is, of course, provided that the thing is a good thing, and at a low enough price to make it strongly desirable. The way to stir up trade is to take some item that there is naturally a demand for and put a deep cut price on it. That will bring people to the store, and they'll buy other things—at least you won't lose anything, for many of them come without the extra inducement. ore, and they'll buy other anything, for many of them would not have it. With special offerings is perfectly legitimate, even them into the store, for in that way they get stock. If these are all right they will come in special bargains are offered, the object being The idea of drawing people with special offerings is perfectly legitimate, even when the only object is to get them into the store, for in that way they get acquainted with the store and the stock. If these are all right they will come again. There are plenty of times when special bargains are offered, the object being merely to sell the goods quickly, no thought being taken of the value of the sale from the point of advertising advantage. It is well to explain why the prices are made lower than usual. Give a good, honest reason for it. The honester you can be in your ad the better people will like it. Not only be honest, but let the ads show and prove that you are. People like to know the how and the what of everything nowadays. The advertisement of the future will be one that will leave out any idea of being funny or "catchy." It will tell store news plainly, clearly, honestly. When it talks about goods it will tell something about them. If they are good, the ad will not only say so, but will say why. FLORIDA NEW YORK SILVER DOLLARS AT 53 CENTS If they are best—the same.

WERMAN, OF BALTIMORE, SAYS: BALTIMORE, Md., March 30, 1901. Gentlemen: Being entirely cured of deafness, thanks to your treatment, I will now give you a full history of my case, to be used at your discretion. About five cases ago my right ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing in this ear entirely. I invented a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a number of paupers among others, the most eminent ear specialist of this city, who told me that only an operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cease, but the patient would Then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New, York paper, and ordered your treat- ment.

A horned rabbit was killed by George W. Terrill, of Jewell County, Kansas, the other day, and is now on exhibition at the postoffice at Robinson. The horns grew on the top of the animal's head, between the ears, and are three inches in length. While not considered a rarity in that section, this species of rabbit is by no means common.

All corporations are not dishonest—at least in Canada. An Ottawa paving company has just notified the city authorities that on its contract for paving Sparks street it had been overpaid $1,000, and a check for that amount accompanied the letter. The overpayment was due to an error in calculation on the part of the city employees, and was only discovered by chance by the paving company's bookkeeper. Some time ago the Louisville Commercial published an article headed: "Found at Last! The Ssearch for the Meanest Man on Earth Has been Busily Prosecuted for Years, but I Claim the Proud Distinction of Having Located Him. He lives at Owensboro." The paper thereupon sued for libel by J. R. Tennelly, of Owensboro, Ky., who although he was not named, asserted that he was the man referred to. The Commercial admitted this and attempted to prove that the statement concerning Tennelly was true. The latter obtained judgment for $500. LITTLE ENCYCLOPEDIA.

The coinage of the half-cent is being demanded from numerous quarters. In the early history of the country this coin did not seem to be needed. Business had not reached the degree of division and specialization that rendered it useful. Such as were coined were treated more as curiosities than as money. In all new countries where resources have to be developed there is a disregard for detail and small things. The broad foundations and framework of a nation have to be roughly hewn at first, and by degrees the finer details and the finishing and polishing are attended to. As civilization progresses the population increases the trading and every-day business is done on finer lines. Convenient small coins for use in small transactions conduce to economy and saving. In California in the pioneer days there were no coins less than a dime. All transactions in which change could not be exactly made, less than a dime, caused a loss to one side and a gain to the other. The sharp, insistent person always gained the long bit in the bargain. For a long time Californians affected to despise nickels, but the advantage of making closer and juster change gradually recommended itself and now even the copper cent is gaining ground in that State of great resources and large ideas. The demand of the half-cent comes from those sections of the country where the struggle for existence is becoming more difficult, and where the subdivisions of business and competition in prices cause the loss of even a half-cent in making change to serious matter. There are many things sold for a cent which would be sold for a half-cent if such a coin existed. The dollars would probably take care of themselves better if the half-cent was in existence to be taken care of, then they are now when the cent is the least coin that can be looked after. To add the half-cent to our coins would increase the profits of small dealers, and the possible economic rules of that class of people who are obliged to make such purchases. It is now her the seller to close in those small dealings, when by their numbers it goes on.

"The human body receives and expends about eight and one-third pounds each day.

So tell like a Bomb in the Midst of Her Role Antagonists and Settled Them. Miss Susan B. Anthony, the veteran woman suffragist, has always had a lively wit, and there is more than one example in her recent life, by Mrs. Ida Husted Harper, of her nimble use of it in the behalf of her sex, says Youth's Companion. During her experience as a school-teacher Miss Anthony got her first practical insight into society's injustice to woman as a worker. Repeatedly she would take a school, which a male teacher had been obliged to give up because of inefficiency, and, although she made a thorough success, would receive only one-fourth of his salary. Her first opportunity of calling attention to the injury done the teaching profession by slighting its women members came during the state convention in 1853. Two-thirds of the teachers in attendance were women, but not one of them spoke, nor was their presence recognized in any way by the men. Toward the close of the second day the question under discussion was: "Why the profession of teacher was not as much respected as that of doctor, lawyer or minister?" Miss Anthony, having listened for some time, rose, but only succeeded in gaining a hearing after half an hour's heated debate as to whether she should be permitted to address the meeting. She had remained standing, fearing to lose her chance, with her heart heating a tattoo, and permission being granted, she said: "It seems to me you fail to comprehend the cause of the disrespect of which you complain. Do you not see that so long as society says that woman has not brains enough to be a doctor, lawyer or minister, but has plenty to be a teacher, every man of you who condescends to teach tactily admits before Israel and the sun that he has no more brains than a woman." As may be imagined, this little bomb was disconcerting to men and women alike. SEARCH FOR THE TILE FISH. Effects of Government Agents to Locate the Much-Wanted Species. The United States fish commission is about to make an effort to determine as precisely as possible the area of sea bottom occupied by the tillefish—that strange and interesting finny species which was first discovered in 1879, only to be rendered almost extinct soon afterward by a marine cataclysm wholly unprecedented, says the Saturday Evening Post. The fish commission thinks that an important and lucrative fishery for the tilefish may be created, when once the fishermen are informed at to where they should go to look for the species, which is excellently adapted for the table. Either to it has remained almost unknown simply because its home is in the depths. There is reason to believe that it has again become very numerous, and a reference to the history of the famous catastrophe of 1883 shows that in March and April of that year 7,500 square miles of ocean were found profusely sprinkled with tilefish, the number being estimated at one thousand millions. The eastern edge of the North American continent is overflowed by the sea, and that is why the water near the coast is so shallow. To find the true edge of the great continental land mass one would have to travel about 80 miles due eastward from New York. There begins a sudden descent to the true floor of the ocean, which is 2½ miles deep. A narrow belt of this delicacy, running north and south, is heated by the warm waters of the Gulf Stream, and here is found the tilefish. The catastrophe above mentioned, which so nearly wiped out the entire species, was undoubtedly due to an invasion of the belt by the arctic current. FIRTS WITH WAX WOMEN. Cattleman from Wyoming Throws Kisses to Figures in Store Windows. A versacious policeman on a beat that takes in the swell department stores of State street tells a queer story of a cattleman from the plains of Wyom- ing, says the Chicago Chronicle. Ascending to the officer's story the ranch- house fairly fell head and ears in love with one wax figure of a beautiful female in a prominent show window of Chicago's great shopping thorough- fare. "When I first saw the cowboy throwing kisses at the pretty woman of wax," said the polioeman, "I at first thought he must be drunk or crazy. But he was neither. The real truth was that he had never in his life before seen a dummy figure of a woman of the perfect type then standing before him in the glare of the show lights at night, and his explanation was that before he insisted the exquisitely attired grand dummy was nothing but a cold and life- Chateau de Speer Wines of Pasoalc, N.

Speer's winery and vineyards are the only Port grape vineyards in the United States; only vineyards that cultivate the real Port wine grape of Portugal; while other wines or mixtures called port are made without a single Oporto grape in them. Mr. Speer is the first and only one who imported the vines and acclimated the real Port wine grape vines of Portugal. He spent thousands of dollars as a hobby to see what he could do toward acclimating these Portugal vines here. It took eight years for them to become acclimated before Mr. Speer got a single grape; during those years all died except about eight hundred vines, when those began to grow vigorous and bear fruit; from these, layers were made for new vines. The vineyards now cover fifty six acres. It has proven a success. The grapes are allowed to hang on the vines until they begin to raisin, when they have parted with some of the water and are rich in sugar; and the wine made from.
