Gieschen and Viebrock, the hard ware firm at 116 West Main street, have made careful selections in all lines for the fall trade and have a large stock of strictly first-class goods which they are selling at very low prices.
Any one wishing to buy a stove should see the elegant line they have before purchasing. They sell the Pon-Honor range and the Jewell range, either of which would be an ornament to any home. Quality, beauty of design and equipment considered they are the cheapest on the market. They must be seen to be appreciated.

B F Redman has been suffering all week from a veryad ) :
I wish that the Negroes of Sedalia would one time open their eyes so they might behold the great disregard that a certain white restaurant keeper has for them and their trade with him. Although to me it seems as though a blind man could easily see and understand the meaning of such treatment, this restaurant is patronized daily by many Negroes who spend money freely, but the accommodations accorded them is something horrible This restaurant has a number of tables for white people; a lunch cobner which one might term a horseshoe counter, two sides of which for whites, the other, the east for Negroes, close to the wall. At the same time we may mention that the Negroes spend one-fourth of the money that is spent in this restaurant at night, and on show and Sunday nights it is a common thing to see a number of negroes standing up waiting for a chance to spend their money in this place. In most cases its a young man with a lady while Negroes are waiting for a chance. A number of tables are not always in use, which no Nogro car use. Also in this restaurant is a common wash basin to be used by whites, not Negroes, therefore you may readily see the accommodations are not for Negroes, and at the same time one-fourth of the earnings come from them. This should be enough evidence to prove to every Negro patronizing it that he does not care his trade. He says you are not worthy of sitting at his tables or using his accommodations. Then you should fail to patronize him. It is time you should let him know that you have pride as well as the white people. Patronize our Negro restaurant like you do him and he will be able to in time to have as nice a place of business as can be found. A CILIZEN.
Circling the Loop in an Autimobile, ,Hephisto"
The Hightest Priced Feature with the Robeison Shows at Sedalia Sept 21
Mebbisto's great circcling the loup ac with John Robinson's shows demonstrates the fact that the man who works the longest does not get the most money. His actual work covers 12 seconds a day six seconds at each performance. For this 12 seconde he receives $16. The law of supply and demand is responsible for the exalted figure for this one act. Public interest is appeased by its performance and John Robinson pays the bill. This "Riding the Loup" is a mervelous performance, daring in the extreme and nothing like it has ever before been conceived and performed. Seated in an automobile on a little perch at the dome of the arena this dare-devil performer shoots down the narrow incline at a terrific speed. The great momentum sends the auto up into and around the barrel-shaped loop like a flash, and as he shoots around this cylinder his head hanging downward while the automobile obeying the law of centrifugal, fnce clings to the surface. The reserve speed carries him into the arena from the tangent of his curved course, where the bowing and smiling audience after a short breath holding spell applauds this intrepid and skilled artist to the echo thrilled by the daring nerve of this marvelous performer.

OUR TENTH YEAL,
With this week's number the Times presents to its readers Vol. 10 and No r in our eleventh year.
To our many readers in and out of our city, among black and white who have given us their support, by which has enables us to reach the 10th Annivsary, we are more than thankful too. And we have
in a feeble way and with small encome proven to the public that is possible for a Negro paper to run 10 years in Sedalia without betraying his race, decieving his party or distreying the confidence of any Negro in the business. During these years we have our part to advance the Negro in every enstance and strnds today, tomorrow and always the same. We have never seek to destroy a Negro's chances in life by say wrongful things about enterprise or his profession. And this paper live ten more years it never. Again we thank you for all favors, and trust that you will continue to help us in the future the same as in the past, while we try to help ourselves and our fellow man.
CHAFF, Nothing but CHAFF.
James Reed, mayor of Kansas City will open the campaign of democracy at the court house tonight Reed is a flunt and forcefull speaker and it is quite untain that he has preprred himself to ring the changes, in a manor that will do credit to his reputation as an orator. But no body will be surprised by hearing any new ideas advananced by him. The Chasterfieldian Pomp posity, with which he will style the grand old democratic party, "the poor man's party, the farmer's party, the labors party, the party of progress, the great political party of the 20th Century.' will make up the bulk of his oration—in fact that is all there is to it. The unterifide will shout them selves hoarse and Jim Reed will strut back and forth across the rostun like a bantam rooster in a country baruyard, but he will not say a word aboat how many Negroes were cheated out of their votes in his late city election of Kansas City, or how he, humiliating it is to a large majority of its citizens that the Nesbit law has afflicted them with him as their mayor.

Gentlemen: — Being entirely deaf 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 years ago, my right ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing in this ear entirely.
I underwent a treatment 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.
I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a new York paper, and ordered your treatment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and to-day, after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored. I thank you heartily and beg to remain Very truly yours.

A BIT OF ROMANCE
short story.
Their friendship was rather the result of a forced mutual dependence than anything else, and they drifted into it before either realized the turn events were taking. At first it had been nothing more than an interchange of a few remarks on leaving the hotel dining room in the morning, and an occasional chat on the piazza after supper. From this it became a regular thing to saunter together down to the boat landing for a pull across the lake before the sun made outdoor exercise impossible.
Then, because the mail came at 12, it suited them both to linger under the shade trees on the lawn until the distribution of letters began. It was on these occasions that they compared notes upon the subject of summer resorts in general and Fairview Springs in particular.
They were there for the same reason—rest and change of air. Both were eager to exchange the quiet of the place for the rush of their everyday life. It was not easy for him to shake off the thought of his neglected law practice and it was equally hard for her to forget the half-finished manuscripts calling for attention in her desk at home. With a frankness which was not flattering and which would have surprised either under other circumstances they only discussed their dismay over the prospect of remaining two months or longer at Fairview and bestowed their most ardent pity on all new-comers to the Springs.
If in the beginning he had accepted the situation blindly, he was the first to realize it in its full significance for, argue with himself as he might, there was at least no overcoming the disagreeable truth that he had given his promise to one woman and his love to another. In his inmost soul he knew he had no right to feel that perfect sense of happiness which had lately come to him. It was only when he was alone that conflicting emotions took possession of him
When he looked into her steadfast eyes he was conscious that she had moved him as no other woman had done. He did not tell himself that he had never loved until now; but knew it was because he wished he could undo the past, and this had never been the case before. He heeded her always, he would reason with himself, but whenever he used this argument he felt that she would be the first (could she know it) to assure him that he was striving after the shadow and not the substance. He was a weakling.
trying to depend on her strength. A cablegram calling her home—her sudden departure one morning—these were things to recall her to the reality of life. A formal little note of farewell, two or three faded roses—and a memory were all he had to tell of the summer. Rudely awakened from his dream of happiness, he was like a man proping in the dark. "The right way!" he said to himself. "Which is right?" With his face buried in his hands, he thought the matter out. The smell of her presence was gone, but its fragrance remained.
She is also fighting out the battle alone. It is strange that actuated by the same feeling and arguing along the same lines they should have arrived at such widely different conclusions.
The first letter she wrote was not to him—but another man.
"Forgive me," it said, "for the pain I am about to cause you, for I can only give you back your promise and ask you to forgive me. There was a time when I believed that the calm friendship I had for you was love, but now I know that poor human hearts were made for more, and they will have their due. Do not reproach me, for it was not my fault that I learned this too late."
Then she began to turn the pages of one of her manuscripts, wearily trying to collect her thoughts. But a while ago everything was different. When she was tred there had been someone whose strong arms were ever ready to receive her; and now—but she could not think of it just then.
The letter that he wrote brought tears to the eyes of the girl who read it:
"I have been away for a long time,' it said, "but I am coming home tomorrow. As I look through my window I can see the foliage on the mountain side changing to red and purple, and yesterday I saw a flock of birds flying to the south. Think of it; the roses were in bloom when I told you good-bye. Now I want to ask you to take me 'for better, for worse,' before the snow marks the winter time. For better, for worse, such as I am, take me and make me what you will of me. Heaven grant it may be 'for better.'"
