His brothers and sisters having died years ago leaving no issue and he himself having never married this makes our fellow townsman, W. C. D., the nearest kin and one of four heirs. It is not known certainly at this date just what amount of property said decedent possessed at the time of his death, but bis relatives have never heard of his losing any of it.

HINDOSTAN ITEMS. Elijah Knight, candidate among the Democracy, for Sheriff, has recently had D. O, Spencer to paint his house, which the same is true touching Mr. Thomas McGinnis, Democratic candidate for county commissioner.

Jeremiah Collier is having his house repaired and repainted by D. O. Spencer.

Frank Dobson triumphantly elected, and will help to swell the majority. 'Doostan Democrats Jollified somewhat last Friday night in Dave Hubbard's wigwam, but the crowd was slim, and the speeches were rambling and spiritless. It is uphill work with the Democracy everywhere this year Dr A. C. Farr was called out, and in a few well-chosen words fully answered inquiring remarks pieoeeding his speech, and then, without a motion to adjourn, the meeting broke up and the crowd speedily dispersed. Simpson's hapel, in Washington township, is every Sunday the scene of one of the largest country Sunday Schools in the county, superintend ed by John E. Bastin.

The result of this mar-, riage was nine children six sons and three daughters, six of who are now living. In October, 1836, with his family Mr. Spencer moved to Bloomington, Indiana. Ten years after they moted to Unionville, and were instrumental in founding the church at this place, which was organized the first day of January, 1849, at which time and place he was elected Elder, holding the office till his death. During Mr. Spencer's life he was always interested in county affairs,, and was for many years surveyor. He also taught school several years. POLKTOWNSHIP ITEMS.

latives, at Kirksville, for the past

week.

NORMAL ITEMS. Tobe East was our first visitor. Normal started up yesterday with more than forty pupils in attendance. Many of our last year students are back for summer work. The instructors would like very much to have a column of the Daily managed by the students of the Normal. Will not some one move in this direction! A column of lively, witty, and good-natured items from day to day would add to the life and pleasure of the Normal. Would the Normal students take

upon themselves the organization and management of a Normal Insti

tute? Well carried on it would be a

good thing.

Miss Thompson either misses her Grammar rfecitation or her breakfast and frequently both. Mr. F.MuIky is attending Normal.
