Austin WILLIAMS, Trustee, October 4, 1883. 'Squire P.J. TAFFE of St. Louis, was licensed to practice law, after an examination in open court. Mr.L.H. LEE returned last week from a protracted visit to his nephews and nieces in Wayne County, Mo. Mrs. Ruth LORD and family have gone to Albuquerque, New Mexico, where she will run a hotel. Her many friends here wish her abundant success. Henry HURTGEN has another new blacksmith. He arrived last Saturday night, but declines making a hand in the shop for the next twelve or fifteen years. George F. REPPY of Denver, Colorado, was visiting his parents, in De Soto, last week. He has not gained any in size, but looks otherwise as if the climate agreed with him perfectly. CIRCUIT COURT NOTES - John SMITH, who was sent up from Crystal City for stabbing a man, was found guilty of assault and fined one dollar. The fine was commuted to one day's imprisonment in jail. George DONALDSON and George ROOKER - the men that robbed Mr. HEATON at De Soto - plead guilty and were given two years each in the penitentiary. Mrs. GORDON's fine was commuted to ten days in jail.

CALAHAN explains the usual industry now displayed by Samuel COLLINS He says that Sam's wife has presented him with their first born, a 10-pound girl, and that Sam recognizes the necessity of raising more wheat next year to supply the wants of his increasing family. Asa BOOTH will again resume his studies at Ann Arbor, Michigan, this week.

Mrs. Christina CUMMINGS, nee WOBBLES, has lost her husband, George CUMMINGS. He left home on the 10th of July last, promising his wife to return that evening, and she has not heard of him yet. As he had staid away from her a time or two before, nothing strange was thought of it for the first few weeks; but Mrs. C. has since written to the points where she expected he would be likely to go, and received no news from him. He left a little boy, six years of age, and a babe of only eight days. Sheriff WEAVER last no tine in ridding our county of the expense of keeping the convicted men in jail. Court closed last Thursday and on Friday morning he started, accompanied by Jesse WAGGENER, Lausen FRAZIER and Jesse CLARK, as guards, taking George ROOKER, George DONALDSON, Wm. MITCHELL, Luther McVEY, Charles MILLER, Fred. BROWN and John MARSDEN to the penitentiary. They are sentenced to two years each, six of them for grand larceny and one for felonious assault. Of the seven only one was a citizen of this county. This is the largest delegation ever sent up from this county.

Just to remind everyone -- Charlotte's Pearls are now archived permanently at http://www.rootsweb.com/~ote/usa_genealogy/mo_newspaper.htm -------------------------------- Jefferson Democrat Hillsboro, Jefferson County, Missouri WEDNESDAY, 26 SEPTEMBER 1883 Mr. SCHWEIZER, who has been employed with the well-known firm of B. MANHEIMER of DeSoto, for the last six years, will, on October 1, 1883, open a large Clothing and Gent's Furnishing Goods store, at Limitville, near Crystal City, where he will be most happy to meet all his old friends and customers. His brother will also embark in the same business with him. Parties in need of any goods in their line - such as Men's, Boys', Youths' and children's clothing. Malinda GORDON, the woman who appeared in our late Circuit court as defendant in a bigamy case, presumed too much on the sympathy which she attracted and failed to profit by opportunities given her. She has been in this county a few months and was supposed to be the wife of a man named MARKET, with whom she was living. A week or two since a man, named GORDON, came on from Pennsylvania and claimed her as his wife, and her two little boys as his children. The result was a prosecution for bigamy, and she was found guilty and sentenced to pay a fine of $100 and spend three months in jail. As she had no means the fine only meant an extra term in jail, and the tender-hearted citizens concluded to pay her fine in case the Court would remit the imprisonment, and, pending negotiations, the Deputy Sheriff, who had her in charge, permitted her to remain at the hotel. Next morning she and her husband agreed to make up and go back home together. They were to meet at the house of a friend, a few miles out of town, and start from there, but when GORDON got there the woman could not be found. When all these facts became known to the Sheriff, who was absent at the time of the conviction, he had Mrs. GORDON re-arrested and put her in jail to serve out her sentence. If she had gone off everybody would have recognized it as a good riddance for the county, and it is not likely any effort would have been made to capture her. KIMMSWICK- Some two weeks ago, we, the fat man, saw an item in correspondence, about one Capt. Stephen BRADSHAW, and as we had a schoolmate with that name - excepting the title of Captain - we concluded to find out whether it was our boyhood friend, whom we had not seen since '65. A letter was written and an answer received in due time, stating that he was the man, and hence we ran up to Kimmswick, last Saturday, to talk over the times of twenty years ago. We found the Captain to be a small man, not much larger than he was when we last saw him, but the time had somewhat wrinkled his brow and made furrows on his face. That we spent some pleasant hours together, can be imagined. His wife, too, was an old friend, but ten years old when we left the scene of childhood, and now she has a daughter almost that old. While sitting at the dinner table, mediating of the time when we were boys and girls together, the fact that we were getting old involuntarily came to our mind with great force. As our time was limited and we had a desire to see the town and the sulphur springs, we bade our new found friends farewell and proceeded to take in Kimmswick. The first on our programme was to get shaved and we had that job performed artistically by H.L. MEYER. When he sang out the usual (after shaving us) we proceeded to pay for his services, to which he would not agree, saying that the press was free in his establishment. Not satisfied with this, he handed us $1.50 for the J.D., and we don't care if he shaves us in a similar manner once or twice each week. We then called on Mr. OHEIM, who volunteered to pilot us to Montesano Springs and show us Kimmswick. On our way back to town, our guide stopped at Dr. LOHMANN's to show us an apiary on a large scale. The Doctor finds pleasure in bee culture and is said to be very successful. After viewing his drugstore and enrolling his name for the J.D. we went back to the town prenor(?), where we formed the acquaintance of a number of the residents. We spent an hour pleasantly with Mr. MEYER, the postmaster, who accompanied us to the depot at train time. Mr. OHEIM wanted us to stay all night so bad that he set the hands of his clock back about an hour, but his scheme didn't work. Zulu did not come uptown until late, and the darkness upon his brow betokened that he had been wrestling with a stove pipe that would not fit. James FOSTER and his sorrel were also there; but unfortunately James became involved in a discussion over the DOWNING law, in which the Dutch fought so nobly that he was vanquished and compelled to retreat. We learned that Henry JOEBGEN was in Kimmswick at the time, but as we did not hear his gentle voice, we concluded that the report was a mistake. Three names were added to our subscription list - Messrs. Martin BACHBACH, Wm. BAUER and Dr. LOHMANN. Taken all in all, we had a pleasant day. WEDNESDAY, 3 OCTOBER 1883 WEDDING BELLS - Mr. Henry HEIDBRINK and Miss Maggie FOREST were united in marriage, at the residence of the bride's parents on Belew's Creek, this county, on Wednesday evening, September 26, 1883, at 7 o'clock. Everything was tastefully arranged for the occasion, without any extravagant show. At the appointed hour the bridal party entered the parlor, led by Rev. FRAZIER. The bride and groom preceded by Miss Maud McLEAN and Mr. Harry DAHL, the bride's brother, as best man. A rich substantial wedding supper followed the nuptial rites, and the evening was spent in pleasant conversation, with instrumental music, furnished by young gentlemen friends of the bride and groom. Friends and relatives mingled together with delightful informality. Of course, there was the usual array of pretty country girls which add vivacity to the naturally joyous occasion. The wedding was indeed a brilliant one, and the newly-married pair have a truly bright future before them. Long life, happiness and prosperity is the wish of their many friends. The happy couple will take up their abode two miles east of the brides parents' residence, near Glade Chapel. A Guest.
