SirajKot Missouri History. The Asiatic Cholera first made its appearance in St. Louis ia the Hum mer of 18:32. The population at that time was C'JIH, including those who fled from the city to eacapa the disease. Other river towns were subsequently visited by the terrible scourge. The disease reappeared in j St. Louis in 19:54 and 1849. Bollinger county was named in honar of George Bellinger of Cape Girardeau county who was quite a prominent man in the history of Missouri. The first state capitol building accupied the present site of the gov. ernors mausion. It was destroyed by fire on the night of November 17 1837. But little was saved from the building. It was a brick building and had cost 25,000. The first legislature to meet in Jefferson City was that of 1825. Numerically it was the fourth gene ral assembly. Gen. Lafayette visited St. Louis in April 1S25. He was recieved with great honor. He was then G8 years old. Halls county was named in honor of Col. Daniel Italia, a pioneer settler of the state and a man of consider able prominence. Thoa. II. Benton's first election to the United States senate was not ac complished without difficulty. Two senators wero-clecteil by the legisla ture in 1821. David Barton, who was a very popular man, was elected on the first ballot but Mr. Benton encountered rough sailing aud it was uot until several days of ballot ting that he was elected, and then at the expense of bringing Daniel Ralls, who was on his death bed into the assembly chamber to vote. Mr. Hills was unable to leavo his bed at the time and died a few days later. Mr. Benton owed his election to Col. Auguste Chouteau of St. Louis, without whose powerful in fluence he would have certainly been defeated. Col. Chouteau induced a Frenchman named LaDue to vote for Mr. Benton which, added to the vote of Mr. Balls elected him. Mr. Benton had previously killed a young lawyer of St. Louis, Chas. Lucas, iu a duel. The circumstances under which the duel was fought caused Mr. Benton to lose many friends and make a large number of powerful enemies. Eveu Mr. Benton's warm est friends coudemued him for killing young Lucas, as the latter tried every way in his power to avoid the fatal encounter. Pierre Laclede Liuquest, or as, he ia commonly called Pierre Linquest t Laclede, the founder of St. Louis left no heirs to inherit his estate- When he located his store near the Merchants exchange he said he believed it was the best place to sell goods west of the Mississippi river and he firmly believed that St Louis would oue day be a great city. His last resting place is unknown. He died June '20, 1778 while returning from a trip to New Orleans and was buried near the mouth of the Arkau sas river, near the town of Napoleon This was an old burying ground. Manj of the graves have since been washed into the river, Laclede's it is believed, included. After La clede's death his residence became the property of Col. Auguste Chou teau, one of the most distinguished men in the early history of this state. Capt. Merriwether Lewis and Capt Wm- Clark of the fomous Lewis and Clark exploring expedition each served as governor of the territory of Missouri. Capt. Lewis was appoint jed in 1807. Two years later while on his way to Washington, he com- n 1810 Capt. Clark was appointed and Children.

A posto'lice was deemed a public necessity iu St Louis ia ISO 1 and Rufus Eaton was appointed post master. Joseph Charles established the Missouri Gazette, the first paper published west of the Mississippi river iu St Louis in 1S08. It was a very small paper and had a very lim ited patronage. St. Charles was orinitialy named Mes Petites Cotes, meaning little Hills. The name was changed in 178-1. It is claimed the first Americans that ever set foot in Howard county were Ira P. Nash, Stephen Hancock and Stephen Jackson. They landed in that county in February 1801 and took up claims, but left a few months liter. A Sad Picture. It is a sad record that the World has to present to day. There no less than 30,177 men reported idle in fifty-seven trades in this city, and these figures do not adequatley rep resent the rapidly iucreiising army of the unemployed. Thet e are the victims upon whom the evils of financial disturbance fall with most terrible weight. To them the situ ation meaus hunger aud homeless ness for wives and little ones, a dread prospect of poverty from which no industry can sheild them. And the worst of it is that when re lief comes to the markets it cannot come too quickly to these victims of the disaster. The hard times that panic breeds do not end for them when the panic is over. It requires time, after such a disturbance, for industry to resume its ordinary course. The poor, who have been made so by this disaster, we shall have with us for many mouths. New York World. Burying Himself Alive Wichita, Kau., Aug. 17. Joseph Weirich a rich farmer living west of town, nearly succeeded in killing himself yesterday in a curioue fash ion. Weirich has been under guard for some time as he has on several occasions evinced a desire to commit suicide, but yesterday he evaded his guards and when found, some hours later, he was sitting in a freshly made grave, with his head and shoulders above the surface, pulling the earth in over him. Within his reach was a bottle of laudanum which he would doubtless have taken but for the timely arrival of the searching party. Admits AM Cures Chattanooga, Teuu., Aug. 17. The intense rivalry here resulted in the News sending a special repre sentative to Cincinnati to investigate the Amick treatment for consump tion.

The Metropolis of tba Mississippi Valley A-ruin Preseuts a rKOUKAMME or fall festivities that FOR BRILLIANCY AND VARIETY OUT SHINES THE CARMNAL CITIES OF THE OI.I WORLD. Paris, the most lnafxiiifieent city on either continent, has for ages lielil the proud title of "the premier carni val city of the world."
