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.

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

sational cures through it which the
News assumed to question. To-day
the News acknowledges the discov
ery is all it claims and admits the
cures he is daily eftectiug are indis
putable facts. It especially com
mends his seudiug test medicines

Mr. A. L Armstrong, an old dru2srist

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." However,
within the last ten or twelve years an
Amerean rival of no mean protention
has contested for that hisrh honor.
and to-day St. Louisholds what Paris
so rehu'tlantly relinquished, the title
of "the carnival citv of the two con
tinents." Mot content with the successful ex
hibitions of previous years, the Au
tumnal Festivities Association has
arranged a programme for ls:j that
for brilliancy and variety will be dif
ficult to improve upon. The first of
the great attractions, The St. Louis
Exposition, will throw its doors open
to the public September tSth and con
tinue until October 2tst. The world
renowned Sousa's Band lias been en
gaged by the management, which is
itself a sufficient inducement to crowd
the magnificent buildingduringevery
concert.
Special attention has been given to
the street illuminations, and on the
evenings of August 12th, 17th, 24th
and 31st, September 7th, Uth, '21st
and 2Sth and October 3d, otht 12th
and Hth, the most magnificent dis
play yet attempted will greet the eye
of the fortunate visitor, electricity
forming a prominent part. The
evening of October ;!d the Veiled
Prophet and his followers will parade
through the principal thoroughfares
and immediately alter the great ball,
which has received considerable
prominence throughout the world,
will be held.
The 38d great St. Louis Fair and
Zoological liardens, October 2d to 7th
will be the crowning week of the car
nival season. This institution has no
peer, and is known in everv land
where the footprints of civilization
exist. The Missouri Pacific Railway
and Iron Mountain Route being dis
tinctly St. Louis hues, and having at
all times the interests of the citv in
mind, have made a remarkably low
round trip rate from all points on the
entire system to St. Louis and return
during the festivities.
