Chester and Sparta are going to have a telephone connection, and messages will be sent from either place for 10 cents. Louis AMBS, traveling representative of the Jacob AMBS Distilling Co. of St. Louis, was in town this week and did a roaring trade as usual. the firm is a reliable one and when business is to be done, as solid as oak. We took notice that Frank KLEIN moved into Fred. RAABE's house, corner 2nd. and S. Gabouri. Mat. KLEIN is putting the building into good trim to make it a desirable dwelling house. Mat. is a good agent and care for the property entrusted to him as for his own. The following is the result of the special election for Marshal in Ste.

Just recieved 4 1/2 Barrels of Country Rendered Lard of extra quality. Mrs. J. FALK & Son Frank VOELKER's business is booming. He is erecting a two story building at the Magnetic Springs and has orders for three more, all of two stories, at the same place. The Cape Girardeau people talk of having a town clock. The Ste. Genevieve people talked of one several years ago. We hope the citizens of the Cape will do more than talking. FOR SALE, NOW! -- A good little home, rich garden, fine water, two blocks from Courthouse, Ste. Genevieve; very cheap. Inquire at Herald Office. The result of the election for Commissioner of Public Schools, as far as could be ascertained on Wednesday evening, was as follows: CLAY - 167 JANIS - 560 JANIS majority up to that day, 393. Mrs. M. MEYER had the hotel premises sodded and planted with ornamental shrubs and evergreens this week. The work was well done under the supervision of Frank DECK, who is quite a genius in that line, and the pleasing appearance of the surroundings add greatly to the attractiveness of the place.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Apr. 14, 1883 INAUGURAL ADDRESS Delivered by the Hon. Chas. C. ROZIER, Mayor elect of the City of Ste. Genevieve at his inauguration Tuesday evening, Apr. 10, 1883. Gentlemen of the Board of Aldermen of the City of Ste. Genevieve: Permit me, through you, to present my thanks to the voters of the City of Ste. Genevieve, for the many favors they have bestowed upon me. They have, time and time again, favored me with the most important, responsible and honorable position in their City Government. I recognize my obligations to them and hope, that I have not proven myself ungrateful or undeserving of their confidence. You gentlemen of the Board, are now, like myself, entering upon a new lease of official life; we all occupy the same boat and shall henceforth be engaged in contributing to the prosperity and growth of this, our city. We must therefore, in all our official acts, constantly keep in mind, that the progress and growth of our city is our individual progress and growth; her prosperity is our prosperity; and her success is our success. Let us not, in all our offical intercourse, lose sight of these facts, and I am satisfied we will thus earn the approbation of our constituents. As indicated by the statement, presented to your Board at our last meeting, the City financially, is in a healthy condition. Our streets and highways are generally in good order and have, in fact, in the last two years, contributed largely to the general improvement and prosperity; and contentment seems to exist throughout our city limits. Our revenue, although comparatively small, has still been very effective in the improvements of the City, and I hope, in the future, will be as judiciously and economically expended as in the past. I hope that I have a due regard for the trust, that I am about to assume, and though conscious of my weakness, I trust that with your assistance and advice, I shall be able to fulfill my obligations with fidelity and success. I faithfully promise to dedicate my abilities to the assiduous discharge of the duties entrusted to me. Let us work together harmoniously and energetically and I assure you, success will crown our labors. Where harmony exists, success is almost assured. And to you assembled here today, and through you to the people of this City, I return my profound thanks for the honor which has been conferred on me.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Apr. 14, 1883 (Communicated) New Offenburg, Mo. Apr. 6th, 1883 Editor Herald: Yesterday morning, at about 11 o'clock a flash of lightening struck the house of John N. DONZE, descending the chimney and demolishing the 400 bricks composing the same in such a manner as not to leave a whole one, scattering rubbish over the stove and room below. The electric bolt passed through the stovepipe and into the floor of a room on the first floor, ran along one of the joists over which Mrs. DONZE just happened to stand, tearing up the floor as it went, and, coming out the gable end of the house, tore up one of the porch posts. The plastering in the rooms on the second floor was nearly all knocked off and the whole house more or less damaged. Another stroke, which must have been almost simultaneous with the one mentioned, struck a tall pine tree that stood about 30 yards from the house. The tree was torn from the top to the very roots, the branches and splinters flying in every direction. At the time when the lightening struck the building, there were about seven persons in the house, of whom nobody was injured although Mr. DORLAC was thrown to the floor by the shock but not otherwise hurt. B.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Apr. 14, 1883 CORRESPONDENCE St. Mary, April 11, 1883 Chas. WINGERT and Christina CAMBRON, both of Perry county, near St. Mary were married Tuesday morning at the St. Mary Catholic church, Rev. W. MADDEN solemnizing the service. The measles are at present raging among the little children here, and even among grown persons who never had them. Robert THOMSON and Geo. FRAZIER got into an altercation last Saturday which by and by developed into a fight. I could not learn who was the strongest but both were arraigned before the squire's court on a charge of disturbing the peace and had to pay a fine. It is rumored that some of the mill-wrights employed at the St. Mary Mills will be discharged as the work is very nearly finished. Our old friend Martin ROND is very sick at present and has been confined to his bed for several days.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Apr. 14, 1883 The Board of City Aldermen met Tuesday at the office of Hon. C.C. ROZIER for the purpose of inaugurating the Mayor and transacting such other business as might be brought before the board. After having been duly sworn in, His Honor, the Mayor delivered a short address which will be found in another column. Frank LACHANCE agreed to seel the city a strip of land 25 feet fronting the west side of the new bridge for the consideration of $50. Dr. CARSSOW presented a petition to open a street between C. SCHOETTLER's and Geo. MAYSE's places, and extending from the Plank Road northwardly to Chas. WEISS's place. There being no further business before the board the Mayor invited the board and several other friends over to his residence where all partook of the cheer of the lady of the house had provided, and spent several hours in social chat. The trial of Henry HORN, charged with the murder of Thos. S. McMULLIN, Sheriff of St. Francois Co. commenced at Fredericktown on Thursday, Mar. 29 and lasted until Friday night, April 6, when the jury brought in a verdict of acquittal. The case was hotly prosecuted and the prisoner ably defended. The verdict which was given by a jury composed mostly of young men from the country, of fair intelligence and good character, was a surprise. The counsel for the state were Messrs. WEAR, EDWARDS, F.M. CARTER, PIPKIN and JOHNSON; for the defendant Judge CARTER, Messrs. M.L. CLARDY, Jasper N. BURKS, Z.B. CLARDY, and J.D. PERKINS. The jury was composed of Messrs. Hy. SITZ, Pearl WHITLEDGE, R.E. JORDAN, W.H. PARKERSON, R.W. LEIGH, Hy. BERRY, John FAGAN, Andr. JECKO, John WHITENER, E.H. BESS, J. Mart. HAWKINS, and Isaac HILLIS. Mr. Felix H. JANIS lectured at Union Hall on Thursday evening last, on "Love of our Country; Its Constitution and Governmental Institutions." The lecturer treated his subject with much thought and care, and showed not only mature judgement, but a very high estimation of the rights and duties of man. Government, he claimed, is not a necessary evil, but providential consequence of man's social nature. It is simple justice to Mr. JANIS to state that his discourse impressed his hearers with a high opinion of his intelligence, knowledge, and facility of using the English language. We regret no having time, before going to press, to give a synopsis of the many good points discussed in the lecture. The next lecture will be delivered on Thursday evening, 19th inst., by Hon. Gustave ST. GEM. Subject: "The Tariff Question." Admission as usual.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Apr. 14, 1883 Last Saturday the City Board organized and, the usual ceremony of swearing in the aldermen, having been concluded - Joe JOKERST says he swore till his arm got tired and his fingers ached - the board proceeded to elect Jules. B. GUIGNON clerk; Val. ROTTLER, Ant. SAMSON and Joe JOKERST, street-committee and Killian GRIESHABER, street commissioner. A notable feature in the new board is the over-whelming majority of the JOKERSTs over any other name. The witnesses and others interested in the Charley ROY case, which was tried at Perryville, this week, left here on Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock. The party consisted of about 18 persons. The Board of School Directors organized on Friday afternoon of last week at the office of Hy. S. SHAW. Mr. SHAW being elected president, W.W. Wilder, treasurer and C.A. MUELLER, secretary. On April 3, four convicts employed in the boot and shoe shop at the Chester penitentiary made a determined effort to escape. They were shot at by the guard and recaptured. Several were severely wounded. Our business manager, Henry KNAMM, was absent from the Herald office for several days this week to attend the funeral of his brother's child in St. Louis. We therefore crave the indulgence of our readers, if any irregularity should appear in the get up of this issue. The heavy rain showers on Thursday last week did not only damage but wrought some good besides, for we heard a farmer say the other day that some of the fences along the plank road were too bad to be worth the mending and the Lord meant well when he swept the rubbish away. Mr. ELLER of the German Settlement brought to town last Saturday, the colt won by Mr. HAMM at the grand raffle. The little thing, which had lost its dam when about 2 months old, was raised with the bottle; hence its aptitude to drink from a glass, which was exhibited to the amusement of the bystanders in the Court House square. It drained two glasses of beer in quick succession with great relish and asked for more when that was disposed of. The animal will, in its new quarters, become more familiar with good fare and careful attendance. There was a social gathering at Val. ROTTLER's residence last Sunday night, friends invited to join in the celebration of Val's 51st birthday. the evening was spent in the pleasantest manner possible, by singing, chatting, or a quiet game of cards, while the brass band made the night air harmonious under the windows. Mr. ROTTLER was very proud of his birthday presents, consisting of a couple of walking canes and a pair of embroidered slippers presented to him by his daughters and a splendid bouquet of natural flowers sent for the ocassion by Mrs. C.C. ROZIER. Val. said the bouquet pleased him more than anything else.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Apr. 14, 1883 REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS During the week ending April 13th, 1883 Reported by Emile P. VOGT, Examiner of Land Titles John L. BOVERIE to Elmira JANIS - $71 Jules LALUMANDIERE et al to Elmira JANIS - $300 ***** He who misses the first button hole will miss the whole row. The city authorities of Chester have raised saloon licenses from $100 to $250. The Cone Mill are being enlarged and, to say the truth, improved by the addition of an office and weighing room, on the south side. Six boys and four girls were admitted to their first communion at the German Lutheran church last Sunday. Rev. MUELLER conducted the very impressive ceremonies. West. JACOBS, a deep sinner, who is accused of having sold liquor without a license, carrying concealed weapons, attempting rape, etc., has been caught near Farmington and is now in jail here, awaiting the Governor's requisition to be taken to Illinois, the scene of his crimes. Later: Since the above is in type, he was taken over to Illinois. Mr. George WILL, the "cooper boss," celebrated his 51st birthday on Thursday night, to which he had invited a number of his friends. Host and hostess did all in their power to make their guests comfortable and succeeded admirably. May it be their good fortune to celebrate many more anniversaries like this one and retain good health and the love of their neighbors. A burglar entered Judge W.R. TAYLOR's dwelling in Farmington, Tuesday night, April 3, and robbed him of $300 in money and his watch. We hear Guss RHEAM is out as a candidate for city marshall and that most of the previous candidates have withdrawn from the contest. Reports reach us from Bloomsdale of great destruction done by the high water last week, a considerable quanity of ground, fencing &c. having been carried off by the raging element. Charley JOKERST, having planted some shade trees along the street adjoining his lot, he protected them by barbed wire. A town-wag put it, that he had protected them by lightening rods. W.K. CHANDLER, teacher of the Gravel Hill school, Cape Girardeau county, was, on Mar. 24, brought before the Justice of the Peace court upon a charge of assault and battery committed upon Thos. R. WILLIAM, a pupil, for shooting paper balls across the schoolroom, sticking pins into his schoolmates and other misdemeanors. The jury returned a verdict for the defendant.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Apr. 7, 1883 CORRESPONDENCE St. Mary, April 4th, 1883 Real estate is looking up in St. Mary; Mr. J. ROZIER bought of A. LENZ a strip of ground adjoining his lot and measuring 3 inches front and 50 ft. deep for $25. At that rate the front foot of a depth of 125 feet would cost $250. Nick THOMURE and W. PATTERSON of Tennessee, who live about 16 miles from here, passed through town on Monday, to go to the magnetic Springs for some of the wonderful water. Before they repaired to their destination, they called in at Mr. LOTTES' to have diverse bottles filled to strengthen them on their journey. When they came back from the Springs, the bottles happened to be empty and, as the weather was more cool than pleasant, they ordered the filling to be repeated and while this was done, they remarked that the spring of Mr. LOTTES was decidedly preferable to the Magnetic spring of Perry. The city and school election is over; there was very little excitement, and the saloon-keepers all say that they haven't had such a dull day in a long time. Louuis SCHAAF and Frederick BARTHELS were re-elected as school directors, having no opponents. Felix H. JANIS received 47 votes for School commissioner. There were but 53 votes in all cast here, as many staid away from the polls. J. ROZIER, P. KARST, J. LANDES, F. VOELKER and J. MENAD were elected town trustees; we couldn't put in a shoemaker this time, and yet we have so many of them; we have three shoemakers that are in the saloon business and three that work at their trade. John WOLF made such a good race that he left all the elected candidates behind and got left himself. What an effect the Sunday law may have on a quiet little town like this! Strolling down the street last Sunday night, my attention was attracted by the sound of music which seemed to proceed from Mr. LOTTES' place. When I drew near, I found that the mill-wrights and some of our boys had improvised an ex-tempore concert which was performing on French harps. As the weather was rather cool, they danced to the music to keep their soles warm. Not to mislead any chance informer or detective, I ought to mention this musical entertainment came off on the pavement and not in anybody's saloon. G.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Apr. 7, 1883 SALE OF REAL ESTATE In pursuance of authority by ordinance, passed by the Board of Trustees on the Town of St. Mary, Mo., I. Henry DUGGER, Marshall of said town of St. Mary, will sell at auction to the highest bidder, at the Town Hall in the Town of St. Mary, Mo., 30th day of May, 1883, between the hours of 10 A.M. and % P.M., the following described Real Estate, situated in the said Town of St. Mary, County of Ste. Genevieve, State of Missouri, to wit: Lots No. 13, 14, 15, 18, 19, 20 in Block No. 18 of said Town. The owners of said property to wit: Gottlieb KEISER, George BORN, Joh J. MEYER, Frederick LEHMAN, Joseph KLATZ and Bernhard MEYER, being non-residents of said Town of St. Mary, and having failed to build sidewalks adjacent to their said property as required by the ordinance of said Town, the lots are sold for building same. Terms: Cash. Henry DUGGER, Marshall Old Sol has again smiled upon us and there is hopefulness in his beams. Tuesday gave our people no time to realize the advent of spring, but on Wednesday, the election being over, they began to look at things more quietly and to believe there was promise in the air. Little groups of people could be seen here and there, discussing the result of the election, some of them exchanging joyful glances, others showint the gloom that prevaded their hearts by their downcast looks and angry brows.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Apr. 7, 1883 The Government contract for carrying the weekly mail between here and Staabtown has been awarded to Anselm STOLZER for the insignificant sum of $50 per annum. This is less than a dollar a trip and no sufficient compensation for the labor. Such a contract has only one merit: it will draw no Dorsey or Brady here. School Election Results: School Directors William BANTZ - 145 William WILDER - 134 Anthony SAMSON - 122 William F. COX - 121 School Commissioners Felix H. JANIS - 244 R. Wesley CLAY - 9 Several heavy rain showers passed over town Thursday afternoon, and in other places the rain must have been very heavy, for at 5 o'clock P.M. the North Gabouri was higher than any year since 1857. We hear that George BECKERMAN has been ruined by the water, his whole garden being submerged. It is a sad case and the good citizens of Ste. Genevieve ought to extend a helping hand to the poor man who sees the prospects of half the summer destroyed. The South Gabouri was also much swollen and J.B. GUIGNON's little footbridge yielded to the gentle pressure of the waves just as he was about to cross it to go home to supper. The bridge was caught by some boys near the mouth of the creek. The coopers' footbridge, west of the Cone Mills was washed down the creek and smashed into smithereens at the main bridge. Some of the colored folks, living near Third and Washington streets, were obliged to escape by the windows. Chas. BURGERT's residence and shop stood in what seemed to be an island, and his pigs swam out of the pen, over the fence. The boys were amused by a haystack coming down the creek, especially after they found out it was peopled with mice. BADLY TAKEN IN A little business transaction took place on all fool's day, between two colored men, in which Theo. was badly bitten. He was speaking about a horse he would like to buy to match the one he had. Jno. offered him one for 35 cents and, the bargain being concluded, Theo. went to look at his prize, but what was his indignation and disgust, when he found a carcass, can sooner be imagined than described. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS During the week ending April 6th, 1883. Reported by Emile P. VOGT, Examiner of Land Titles. John A. KELLY to Thos. BETTS - $200 John A. KELLY to Thos. BETTS - $200 Henry LAWRENCE to Valentine ROTTLER - $200 ***** OFFICIAL ELECTION Notice is hereby given, that in pursuance of an order to me, as Mayor of the City of Ste. Genevieve, directed by Charles C. ROZIER, Ferdinand A. ROY and Jules B. GUIGNON, proceeding under and by virtue of the provisions of section 72 [20] and 84 [32] of the Revised Ordinances of 1879, a special election for Marshal of the City of Ste. Genevieve , is hereby called for, and will be held, on Tuesday, April 17th, 1883, at the following places: 1st Ward, Mrs. Josephine BOTZ, on Little Rock street; 2nd Ward, little building just south of ROZIER & JOKERST's store; 3rd Ward, Court House on Third street.

Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Apr. 7, 1883 Louis NAUMAN sold 22 head of cattle this week to Mr. MOOR of Perry county. $1275 was the price. At Daniel ELLER's grand raffle which took place last week, the following were the lucky winners: Joseph KOELLER, No. 11 - a buggy and harness Xavier HUBER, No. 26 - a shotgun Peter WEILER, No. 83 - a revolver C.W. HAMM, No. 85 - a colt The Cone Mills are booming. Last Monday the new works suceeded in grinding 280 barrels of flour, which is 5 more barrels than the Superintendent expected in the beginning, could be accomplished. It is now thought that the capacity will be 300 bushels in 24 hours. The term of the Public School in Lawrenceton has expired, and the Catholic Parochial School commenced on April 4. Sudden changes in the weather are the order of the day this spring and probably the cause of the numerous cases of pneumonia that are reported from the neighborhood. Last week there was a sighing for a warm ray of the sun and this week people began to think of polar bears. As the two candidates for city marshal, L.D. THURMAN and L.B. VALLE, received an equal and the highest number of votes at the last election, and the city charter directs that the state law shall govern in such cases, there will be a new election for that office held on Tuesday, April 17th. The course of popular lectures recently interrupted, will be resumed next week. On Thursday, April 12, commencing at 7:30 P.M., at Union Hall, a lecture will be delivered by mr. Felix H. JANIS, on "Love of your Country; its Constitution and Governmental Institutions." Admission, as usual, will be 10 cents. Messrs. Joe. HOGENMILLER and C. FALLER went to St. Louis last Wednesday night, for the purpose they said, to ask the Vicar General to send them another priest. Anselm STOLZER who, was at Farmington lately, reports that the wheat crop along the Farmington Road, west of the Backbone, is very seriously injured and presents a sorrowful sight. Several buildings in town have improved in appearance of late having a new coat of paint put on them. We note Dr. HERTICH's house, the house of Mrs. DORGE, and WEHNER's saloon. Mr. Wm. WILDER and Judge BANTZ, the newly elected School Directors, are both men peculiarly calculated to fill the position of School Directors with credit to themselves and benefit to the public. Both are men of enterprise and intelligence, who know and appreciate the benefits of the Public School system. Mr. WILDER inherits from his father an enthusiastic regard for Public Schools, as well as a mind well trained to business, which will make him a useful member of the board. A peddler named B.F. RIGGS, when on one of his trips from Fredericktown to Mine Lamott, and about two and one half miles from the latter place, was stopped by two highwaymen on horseback and forced at the point of the revolver to deliver his cash, some $60. he describes one of the bandits as a heavy built man with a full mustache and the other as a young fellow with blue eyes, blonde hair, and beardless face.
