OL.8 Score for treen to Twevle. DEWEY TEAM OF GEO R SMITH COLLEGE DEFEATS THE LIN- COLN INSTITUTE "TIGERS YESTERDAY. AN EXCELLANT GAME AND A LARGE ATTENDANCE. At 2:10 p.m the Lincoln Institute Tigers of Jefferson City arrived in our city on a special car decorated on both sides with pale blue and white ribbons. They were greeted at the Mo Pac depot by hundreds of Sedalians, including the entire school of Geo R Smith college who were old gold and blue ribbons. When the train stopped the loud yells for Geo R Smith College and Lincoln Institute began and lasted until the game commenced. At about 3:20 p.m a large crowd consisting of many lady students, professors of both institutes, together with a large number of Sedalians, both white and black. The first half was begun in white, the Tigers took the lead and kept it until the gaol was kicked scoring for them 6 points. At the beginning of the second half the Tigers start off ahead again. At the kick off one of the Tigers catches the ball, makes a good run and scores 4 more points, which give them 12 points nothing. The next kick the Dewey's began to play and in every scrimmage they gained ground until two goals were kicked, making the score 12 and 12. In the next five minutes the skillful players of the Dewey's made another goal. At this point time was up, the score standing 14 to 12 in favor of the home team. The game from start to finish was a good one. Both teams deserve great credit for their playing and we could safely say that the Dewey's are among the best Neams in Missouri. In the evening a reception was held at the college in honor of the visit rs. POISON IN CIDER Ben Redmond purchased some cider Friday evening from a wagon. He took a drink of it and the more he drank the better it tasted. The old saying "A little more older, too," struck him very nicely. About 6 o'clock the next morning the cider began to work on him causing cramping and vomiting, and in few minutes Ben began to think that every moment would be his last. Dr Harris was summoned and administered the proper antidote which soon eased him. Ben will not try any more cider but will herafter take her'er straight. QUARTERLY MEETING Quinn Chapel.

BUT THE CHARGES WERE WITH DRAWN AT POINT OF GUN. The Accusations Are Now Being La At the Door of Another--Some Sens sational Developments Are Looked For in the Near Future. From the Sentirel. Beaman, November 7.—Sensational charges recently caused a war of words between two well known and highly respe- sable citizens living in the same neighborhood between Beaman and Sedalia, and the end seems not to be in sight. The cause of this trouble is the delicate condition of a young noed girl who has been in the employ of a prominent family in that neighborhood for many years. For the past six or seven months she has been taking treatment SENSATIONAL From the Sentirel. from aphyida for dropsy. It is said that the cause of the girl's condition was laid at the door of a nearby white neighbor. When the latter heard of the matter, however, he declared the charge false and without any foundation, and to emphasize his declarat on he loaded up his trusy shotgun and issued a ultimatum, threatening to wreak dire vengeance on all concerned if the matter was not quieted. It is said that an interesting scene was enacted after this proceeding and that the charges were withdrawn from the man's door. They are now being placed elsewhere, as a man with a shotgun always has the argument if nothing else considered. The girl in the case is an unusually bright colored girl and she has always been an excellent character. The matter has developed into a great scandal on that account. She has been placed in the home of a cooled family where she will be given the best of care. The entire community is greatly interested in the case and some sensational developments are looked for.

"I have read a good many stories," said the city man, "about the honest newsboy who chases a man three blocks to return the five dollar gold piece given in mistake for a nickel; the sympathetic bootblack who protects the widow's son, or the heroic street gamin who gets run over by a dray while rescuing another boy, and murmurs, 'Is Jimmy all right?' and then dies. I have come to the conclusion that these stories are written by girls fresh from school, or refined old maids who live in a village, and they are read by men who thoughtfully stick the tongue into the cheek while reading. Yet there are men who read and believe. "I saw one of this class the other day who went to the rescue of a boot black who was trying to fix his broken box. "My lad," said the good man—they always call them lads in these stories—you are in trouble; let me assist you. "Then he knelt down on the sidewalk in his good clothes, used a half brick for a hammer, raked up some twine from his pocket, and after fifteen minutes' hard work, made a creditable job. Meanwhile about thirty street boys gathered around. One slipped a piece of old iron into his pocket, the grateful bootblack with a bit of chalk decorated his back with a hideous caricature, his hat was knocked into the gutter as he arose, and one of the boys accused him of stealing a 'dabber.' "The man flushed with natural indignation, and immediately there arose a whoop of derision, and as he strode away he was guyed by the whole crowd for two blocks. While in this frame of mind it would have done him good to have interviewed some of the ladies who write the picturesque tales about the imaginary street boys."—Chicago Times Herald. ```markdown ``` 8EDAIA TIMES Subscription Rates. 1 Year.....$1.50 6 Months.....50cs 3 Months.....25ct 1 Month TERM IN ADVANCE Advertising Rates, made Weekly, Monthly, and Quarterly, made known on Applications JOB WOK. ofall kjr.d neatly areasonable price W.

Those Republicans up in Iowa don't know when to quit counting. Col Bryan may as well turn his attention once more to oats culture. Republican prosperity was too much for Nebraska Free Silver Democrats. There is no use talking, Democracy cannot win unless she has plenty of calamity. The Tammany tiger got the worst of it in its fight with the Republican elephant. McKinley is dead, but his prosperity still! lives as was evidenced the election returns. Remember if you want a newspaper to help you to fight your battles you must help it to live. Now let's find the way to down the Missouri Tammany. There is some way to beat the Nesbit monstrosity, Old Iowa can raise more corn more hogs, more prosperity and more Republicans to the square inch than any other state in the Union. From the election returns of last Tuesday the republicans carried nearly everything. Now what do you think about it, Mr Pitchfork Tillman? Has George R Smith College forget that a Negro printing establishment exists in this city, or is it against the principles of its officials to support Negro enterprises? The nearer the end of the year approaches, the number of candidates, or want to be candidates, seem to appear. It is currently reported on the streets that certain parties are grooning themselves for the different offices.

On the democratic side every man that is now holding an office is a candidate for re-election, which means that the fight next year will be, or "blood." Now that cold weather is about to set in, and as there are not many places for the men to go at night, it would appear as if this was an opportune time for our so called leaders to get together and organize some kind of a club or league to build up the Negro's end in Sedalia, and not waste their time by sitting around someone's fireside telling "fairy tales." The time has come when we as men of our race must get together and have an understanding with each other. There is much work for us to do in helping our elves and helping our city to prosper. The white papers of our city are call-on the white business men every day to get together and pull and work in order to build up the town. The question arises are we not citizens too, and is there not work for us to do in the push for progress? And when the rush comes we can share our part, even though our aims may be ever so small, yet they are much in the sight of those who are leading and carrying the greatest burden. We must not always stand back and wait for some one to call or force us to do what we as citizens should do for our city; and we earnestly seek to impress it upon the minds of the Negro business element of our city to get together while the winds from the north come and we have nothing else to do, and perfect a good and firm organization regardless of political opinions, get on a solid foundation and do something for the betterment of our race and that of the city of Sedalia. A Negro business men's league would be a good name to work under. Let it consist of only business men professional men and real laboring men who have the interest of their race and the city at heart—men who live by the sweat of their brow and not from someone else.

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 store, 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 least you won't lose anything, for many of them would not have come without the extra inducement. 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 in 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.

Northern New Jersey climate, and soil abounding in iron is just adapted for this grape for Port It is the same kind of soil as in Portugal. Speer's winery and wines are the only Port grape vineyards in the United States; only 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 wines 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; durity three years all died except about eight hundred vines, when those were 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.

THE HOTEL Have You Indigestion PEPSIKOLA The Tonic Digestants Will Cure You PEPSIKOLA Tablets the TONIC DIGESTANTS will tone up and strengthen the stomach, enrich the blood, give immediate relief and positively cure any and all forms of Acute, Chronic or Nervous Indigestion, sharpen the appetite and make you look well and feel well. The theory on which PEPSIKOLA is based is that while the ordinary digestive remedies act as digestants, the natural result is that the digestive organs must depend more and more upon these artificial methods of digestion—the taking of them becomes a habit, increased doses are required, the patient cannot relinquish them, except to suffer more intensely; and as a result, becomes a chronic Dyspeptic and a Hopeless Invalid. PEPSIKOLA Tablets do not act as a digestant wholly. They do their work by stimulating the stomach to do its own work by increasing the flow of gastric juice and saliva. After a short time, the stomach, by the use of PEPSIKOLA has resumed its normal and healthy process of natural digestion. As a result the food is assimilated without that choking, distressed feeling after eating. All kinds of food can be freely eaten—food that is eaten is easily digested—more than be eaten—hence more red, rich blood is made to nourish and strengthen the body all feeling of indigestion is relieved and becomes taken on the eye brightened, skin freshened, and the half-dead, food-hating Dyspeptic, becomes the well-feeling, table-delighting, healthy, active person.

This ear began to function for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a number of physicians, 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 hearing in the affected ear would be lost forever.
