School KxerrUen, The Christmas exercises of the third ward school were ”iven yesterday afternoon in the assembly room of the High School building. The interest of the patrons was evinced by the large and appreciative audience which tilled the room to overflowing before time for opening of tlie exercises. The principal features of the program were: “The Brownies’’ from the first and second grades, a drill of Japanese maidens and a cantata “Santa Claus’ Delight,” made up from most, if not all, the different giades. ‘‘The Brownies” in their comical uniforms, acted so cleverly as to call back an encore, which was kindly given. Santa Claus, with jingling bells and Christmas pack, appeared in per son; hewever, judging from the very joyous reception given him b\ the little folks, we think they would be pleas d to see him much oluner tnan on these his annual tours The exercises as a whole were ver\ entertaining.

At The First Ward. Appropriate exercises in com memoralion of Christinas were held in the public schools yesterday. At the first ward building the scholars of Misses Jones, Hammond and Adams united their exercises and gave a very interesting program Miss Alspaugh’s room gave a program consisting of songs and recitations. which were delivered in a highly creditable manner. The seventh and eighth grades under Miss Jordon gave a Chustmas cant«ta entitled. ‘Santa Claus and Uncle Sam.” The exercises were a description of a convention of delegates from the principle powe.is of the world, led by Uncle Sam, the land of Santa Claus. The scholars wore costumes peculiar to the nation each one represented and a very good entertainment was given. The decorations through the building were quite elaboaate and the attendance of parents and friends of the scholars was unusually large.
Christmas shoppers will consult, their owu interests by noting the advertisements of individuals and firms who have appropriate and de sirable goods for sale. It stands to reason that those who are enterprising enough to call attention to their line of wares through the col utuns of the newspapers are pre pared to offer better inducements than the non-advertisers whose hits iness policy is to trust to luck.

Indications pointed towards the accumulation of impurities in the blood and germs of disease I was constipated and had no appetite.

THE HEARNZ CASE* Drau'iiiK to m CIom*?, The Argument to he •Maile Saturday. Scnpps-MeRae Leiirue Special. Bowling Hhkkn. Mo., Dec. 19.—Now that the trial ol llr. J. C llearne (or tin* murder of Amos J. Stdlweil isdrawing to a close there arc persons here who predict ttiat the jury will disagree They feel that Judge Roy. .n ruling out the testimony chat would have gone in to tlie married life of l>r. and Mrs. llearne has had its “fleet, and was th losing featured cue unle-ed by the •State. While it would only have gone directly to prove a motive which the court said hail already been proven it would certuii Iv have made a most damaging impn—siun ..n the jury agiUn-i the defendants. \sj| is, th - attnrue.s for the state elann amt the public realizes it. that Ihe m .-t i'.tere fi c' st'wv of all has twee left untold Senator Ball i hi-opening statement of what the defen-e exneettd to prove in a le it plain thai an alibi w a • ’he theory, .nul the taels upon which that alibi : re to he based were developed Tuesday It .became apparent at ouc<* that e-tahli-li an alibi Dr. Verneite must he broken town in his statement to tin effect that he saw Dr. llearne at the corner of Fifth and Broadway at about 1:10 o'i lock on the morning f the murder , and desperate efforts are being in"de along that line. By Dr. Lucy II a whins of Hprngfleld, who answered to a question from Champ Clark that -he effected cure* in nhvsical ailment thro tgli the assistance of spirits, the defence have piwv n that on the night of the murder, instead of Dr. Vernette arriving from St Louis at 1 o’clock in the morning at Hannibal, he was at home sick. Dr. Hawkins also made other damaging statements as to tie character of Vernette, tint from the rumblings now heard there is more trouble ahead. Another incident of tiie defense which has developed is the atte pt to prove that it was a physical impossibility for Di. Vernette to have seen Dr. llearne at Ihe corner of Fifth and Broadway in Hannibal that night, as he claims to have done. There is an electric light lower at the corner, and beneath the shadows natural under a light so high us that the defense habeen making experiments. They have biought to Rowling Green Billy Dawson, Preston Winn and Clark Price, all of Hannibal, wno swear that they have made the teat, and that in accordance with what they observed Dr. Vernette must have been mistaken; all of which goes to strengthen the story of Dr. Lucy Hawkins, to the effect that Dr. Verneiie was not at that corner that night at all. In this pariictilar there is a storm brewing. ‘“Dick” Stillwell is on hie mettle, and tests will he made along this line which w ill be insontrovertable and ttied in rebuttal. In ease VeuieMe i* impeached the question is freipienily askec: ‘ What will the dt fense do w ith toe story' of Harry Nichols, who swears hat he saw llearne at the opera house eorne , onlv a block from whet* Dr. Verne te claims he seen him, anil at about I lie same lime or a little latei Tbe fact that Nichols stated on the sian 1 although he was indie ted he was trie I and acquitted, will not he a shield for him against the attacks of Dr. Ilearne’s shrewd counsel. This qnesi ion of alibi, going into the veracity of Dr. Verneite, in particular and Harry Nichols in gene al, is liable tn develop some sensational developments when the State goes to work in reh.it-tal. It is now pos-ible, it is claimed, that the argument of the ca«e will he begun Friday, ami If so it will make a material difference in the length of the speeches made. It is said that in ease the argu tnetit is begun Friday. Judge Roy will push tbe matter to a conclusion by Saturday night. The Stillwells are living quietly at their hotel in lids place and have many callers. They are affable and agreeable people, except when the sublet t of the mi rier 8 touched, when a change in demeanor is at once noticed. Tney are serious in their prosecution, and no matter wdiat the verdict may be, s tcial r lal'ons have been severed ihat even lime can not heal nor interested friends patch up. R. 11. Womack.
