Ste. Genevieve Herald Ste. Genevieve, Mo. Saturday, Mar. 31, 1883 The Perryville Circuit Court meets on Monday, April 9th, which will cause quite an exodus of our citizens who are witnesses in the Charley ROY case to be tried there on a change of venue from this county. The sheriff has cummoned Joe. VORST, Dr. ANDRE, Dr. BRAHAM, Frk. BABB, Emile LELIE and several colored people as witnesses in the case. P.L. LEMPKE will also be summoned as witness, as soon as the sheriff can find him. We learn that Charley SAUERS of Fredericktown has an intention to remove to Ste. Genevieve. Come on, Charley; there are many friends to welcome you at your old home, and as to suckers, you will have the finest specimens right across the river, of a size to beat anything that can be found near Fredericktown. Just before going to press, we learned that Anthony SAMSON and William BANTZ are candidates for school directors. Both are good men and we are inclined to believe that no two other men could be found in town who are so worthy of the confidence of the people as those two. The other day we had occassion to drop into the mammoth store of ROZIER & JOKERST and were surprised at the immense and varied stock of goods that they are receiving every day. Everything in the way of General Merchandise is kept by them and sold at such remarkably low prices that it is not astonishing to find their store constantly thronged with anxious purchasers. Joe BAECHLE's duck raising establishment proved a dead failure. While out hunting this week, he shot two ducks, one of which, a little one, had it's wing broken but lived. Joe put it into his yard to see whether he could raise it but forgot to lock up the cat and, in a short time, found that the blood-thirsty Grimalkin had bitten its head off. Cats don't agree with ducks. Henry GILLENBERG a well to do farmer in Randolph Co., Ill., is a customer of John WOLF of St. Mary. The other day John made a pair of boots for Henry and, knowing that gentleman to be a very stout man, he made the amplest allowance for the calves; but when the boots were tried on, lo! the breeches wouldn't go in. John swore, the next time he would take Henry's measure by the flour barrel. Those who know George SEXAUER will be slow to believe, as charged in the Fair Play, that he wantonly beat a poor sick boy with a pair of brass knucks, for the only provocation of having imbibed too much whiskey in his saloon. And we protest that, as Mr. SERAUER waived examination before the justice, and consequently, there being no proof offered on his side - which would have been a useless waste of breath and time, for who ever heard of a justice failing to bind a man accused of crime - it is unfair, to say the least of it, for the Prosecuting Attorney to try, convict, and sentence him in his paper. Our friend Joe MUNSCH, of Farmington cane to town last week with his left hand in a sling. He was engaged is sawing cedar posts when the saw suddenly jumped up knocking him down. He did not feel particularly hurt and going to resume his work when his comrade cried out "look at you finger!" when to his surprise he found that the third (gold) finger of the left hand was almost completely gone. The doctor patched up the damage as best he could, and Joe, came to his old home to warm his heart by the fervent greetings of his many friends in Ste. Genevieve. He is always welcome. Frank BABB has undoubtly the best educated horses on the face of the Globe. Last Tuesday he sent his driver to take a traveler to St. Mary. The drive did as he was told but, on his way back, found out that SCHIRMAN had had a ball on Monday night and, the crumbs of the feast not having been entirely disposed of, he partook of the good things set before him at his leisure. Frequent potations must have made the driver unmanageable, for when the horses saw there was no getting along with him, and Frank BABB waiting for the team besides, they gently deposited the inebrite postilion in a mudpuddle and came home by themselves. A broken spring was all the harm that befell.
