John Hammond has secured the con tract for building a vegetable ball at the fair grounds. Papawa are ripe, and are almost as sweet this yenr as pretty girls or candi dates for office. The "Taler question " stares ns in the face with serious aspect. You can buy a bushel of little ones for 1.60. Nick Lockerman has finished cutting bis corn and thinks the yield will be much better this year than last. Messrs. Good it and Bond, of Kansas City, are in the city putting in the Rut tan beaters at the Constitntion street school bouse. Persons having school work for exhi bition at the county fair are requested to leave it at the office of County Superin tendent Wharton. El. Holderman has returned from his lake trip and is now with his brother at Morris, III. His health has Improved since leaving Emporia. J. II. Davis's "'ayhawker" was put on the cars for the Bismarck ' Fair, Fri day. We trust he will "get there" in the language of the turf. Robt Milliken laid off the ground for the wigwam to lie erected for the sol diers' reunion and the State Sunday school convention, Friday. ' The shooting party that went to Green wood county on Wednesday returned Thursday. They killed - about sixty birds and hai a good time. The Emporia chorus voted last week to aid the soldiers' reunion, to be -held in this city in October, and will prepaie a number of war melodies for that occasion. The Emporia Gas Company are re ceiving bids for the construction of the works in this city, and they -will be opened and considered about the 10th of the present month. The committee having the matter in charge have advertised for bids, to light with the electric light the new taberna cle or wigwam which is in process of construction in this city. - John L. Jones and Nellie Jones were married at the residence of the bride's parent on Dry creek Thursday, by Rev. IL Rees, pastor of the Welch Cengrega tlonal church of this city. The following school districts which have not yet reported to the county clerk are requested to do so at the earli est possible moment: 0, 23.25,27,45, 47, 50, 07,69,70.71.84,88,81. The cast of the Union Spy was ar ranged at a meeting of the Emporia Rifles last evening, and the first rehearsal will take place to-morrow evening under the direction of Col. Temple. Forty veterans have already registered for the State Soldiers' reunion to be held at Topeka, beginning the 15th of the present month, and it is thought this number will be more than doubled. The first annual fair of the Bourbon County Fair Association will be held in October this year from the 18th to the 21st A reunion of old soldiers and a competitive military drill will be among the features of the occasion. Judge Graves, in the case of Edward McGraw, overruled all motions for his release in the district court of Coffey county, last week, and the prisoner was brought back to Emporia by'B. F. Ro- maine and lodged in jail on a bond of $1,000. Ledger : R. B. Welch, P.J. Carmlchael, . T. Davis, J. H. Hill, N. W. Sonne- decker, W. F. McMahonand A. A. Wells have been appointed by the county su perintendent a committer to prepare a course of study for use Lb the schools of Lyon county. Hartford Call: R.T. Soediker, who has been so long and prominently con nected with the sheep interests of this county, has retired from the business and will probably take tip his residence in Hartford. In what business be will! engage has not transpired. The Santa Fe has agreed to furnish half rates to all parties living within a hundred miles of Emporia who may de sire to attend the Bute Sunday School Convention, to be held at this place in October. For all distances over one hundred miles the round fare will be $4.00. An operation was successfully per formed Thursday afternoon upon David Davis, the young man who crushed his ankle by falling off a horse that day. The foot was amputated a short distance above the ankle and the unfortunate suf ferer is doing as well as could be ex pected to-day. Eighteen years ago, on August 25th, 18C3, quite a heavy frost fell In many places in central and northern Kansas. It was the earliest frost that has ever been known in Kansas since its settlement. It may not be necessary to remark that there was not a very heavy frost in Kansas daring An (rust ot this year. I. D. Fox & Co. sold four high priced pianos last week, the purchasers being Mrs. Dr. FUkins, tho Hennlng brothers, C. Burnett and W. E. Sprott. In spite of the drouth and dull times Messrs. Fox & Co. state that their trade In this line la steadily increasing and that they are unable to get the goods la as fast as they are sold. We learn that a number of Informa tions have been filed In the district court against parties charged with violating the liquor law. There is no doubt that a good deal of surreptitious whisky selling is going on in this city, and all friends of temperance should stand by the prosecuting attorney in his efforts to bring transgressors of the law to J ustice. We learn that an arrangement has been consummated by which the water works will be permitted to remain where they are until spring. What will be done then baa not yet been fully determined. The city council are trying to 3nd the shortest and best way out ot an embar rassing situation and will exercise great care that the steps they take ia this mat ter will not have to be retraced. Dr. Northingtoa has received a letter from s relative in North Carolina, la which a deplorable condition of affairs in that state ia depicted. The writer de sires to sell bis land that be may Immi grate to Kansas, but he finds bo pur chaser, and indeed no cne seems to want to invest anything In property there. In addition to the usual political and moral blights with which that region is afflict ed the drouth baa this year, as elsewhere, parched and dried up almost everything. Marshal Leslie brought into our office yesterday a specimen of apiece of sod corn which be bad raised this year on bis place on the Neoaho, east of Em poria, which are a caution to unbeliev ers in the ability of Kansas to raise com. "Thecoma was planted on the 25th of last May, and the stalks shown to us are fourteen feet high. They have several ears of Terr well developed corn, and lhe field will average "well. T.-E. Gilbert, of Ivy, send In some stalks of corn, the tsltest of which measured fifteen feet. This growth was made after the 25th of May, and had it not been for the dry weather the field of 24 acres would probably have yielded 100 bushels to the acre. As it is the corn Is good, and the yield will he very satis, factory for a "dry year." We hear of several fields which are estimated at from 40 to 75 bushels to the acre. A man needs but to travel a little to find out that we have much here yet to be thankful for. The time of year has come, earlier this year than usual on account of the drougnt, when the destruction of fences, stacks of grain and hay and farm build ings by fire is daily reported. It i time for the greatest caution. Pipes, matches and rubbish fires should be caret ully guarded. It is the part of wis dom to protect stacks and out-buildiogs by plowing a few furrows around them, so that if fire starts from any cause, the progress may be checked before destruc tion results. A few hours' work may save the products of a whole season's labor. Let the work be done at once. Deatha. Julia wife of Conductor James R. Lewis, died last week at the family residence on Constitution street, near First avenue, after an illness of some days from typhoid-malaria, at the age of twenty-six years. The funeral took place this afternoon at 3 o'clock. Emma Jane, daughter of John Davies, died at her father's residence on Dry creek, yesterday afternoon, at the age of 18 years. The cause of death was typhoid fever. Christian Chnrfrh, Meeting;. A church meeting of the congregation of the Christian church was held last week to transact business which in cluded the selecting of a pastor for the coming year. Upon taking a vote the present pastor, R. L. Lotz, was unani mously chosen to continue here another year. The condition of the church was found to be prosperous, and the congre gation Is growing in size and import ance. The public at large will be pleased to hear that Mr. Lotz has been continued another year. Since bis arrival here on August 26, 1880, be has done very satis factory work ia his calling, and has made many friends by the faithful per formance of his duties as a minister and as a citizen. A Very serious Aeeldeat. While a young man named David Davis, in the employ of Col. Whitley, was riding through town Thursday on horseback with a wash-boiler in one hand, his horse began prancing when near I. D. Fox & Co's., and threw the young man off. He fell in such a posi tion as to cause a compound fracture of the ankle, we believe, and upon taking him to the residence of Mrs. Connor, on Merchants street, it was found by the attending physicians that amputation of the limb would be neces sary, and that operation was to have been performed this afternoon. Mr. Davis was unmarried. He was a brother of the Davis who was klllod by the falling of a derrick at Cottonwood Falls some time ago. A Mew Enterprise. Prof Oval Pirkey, late president of Abingdon College, 111., and one of the men chiefly instrumental in building up the Christian University at Canton, Mo., has been in the city for a week or so, with a view to establishing in our town a select literary, scientific and classical Institute, in case sufficient encourage ment is offered by our citizens. He represents to us that he is very much pleased with the city and the en couragement shown, and ' that he has secured rooms and will open a school inside or thirty days. Besides the courses in natural science and the classics, a full course in commercial studies is contemplated ; also a primary department will be opened. The school will be open to both gentlemen and ladies. Prof. Pirkey left tor Canton, Missouri, Friday, but will return shortly, when further announcements concerning his undertaking will be made.

As this is the nature of a promotion we congratulate Tom on his good fortune. - Newton Republican : Rev. Dr. Cord ley, of Emporia, addressed the members of the Sunday school convention at the Opera House last Wednesday evening. He had a large audience, and he fully sustained his reputation as a strong, forc ible and an entertaining speaker. Mr. Jesse Fell, of Normal, Illinois, was in the city Thursday. He is mak ing a tour of the state in the interest of the Chicago & Alton railroad company, which is about to inaugurate a system of forest planting, as a means of sup plying the future demands of that cor poration for ties with which to extend its lines. Mr. C. Mixer, who has-been employed for some months past as operator at the train dispatcher's office of the Santa Fe, started last week for San Marcial, New Mexico, where he will hold, a similar but a better position. During his stay in Emporia, he proved himself a gentle man in every sense of that term, and made very many friends who regret his departure. Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Stotler returned from a visit of five weeks among friends in West Virginia .and Ohio, Thursday, They were accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Murdock, who have been absent from Emporia for nearly a year.

Newton Republican: We congratu late the Republicans of Lyon county on the nomination of our boyhood and lifelong friend, W. F. Chalfantj for Register of Deeds. We know him per sonally as an honest man, a life-long Re publican, a patriotic soldier, who carries the scars of wounds received in defense of his country, and in addition to all this he has tho very best qualifications for the office. He deserves the unanimous support of the patriotic voters of Lyon county. Pruitland Items. Thursday, September 1st. We are still suffering for the want of rain. Water is getting very scarce, es- peciallynear Cahola. The stock men have brought most of their cattle to be herded near here, so as to get water from our springs. ...Miss Sadie Stanley, daughter of Thomas Stanley, will soon be married to Mr. C. II. Carter, publish er of the Western Friend, of Quakervale, Cherokee county, Kansas. We wish the young couple all the happiness pos sible to be enjoyed on this earth. . . .We attended Mr. W. J. Hugglns' sale, last Thursday. Things went rather low. Mr. Powell, a Friend minister, who has leased the place, bought most of the articles sold. We are truely sorry to lose Mr. and Mrs. Huggins from our neighborhood. They go from here to Ohio and from there to California. Mr. Powell, who has rented the place, is from New York, and has a very pleasant family. We hope he will succeed in our "sunny Kansas". . . .Wm. Humphrey, of Cahola, considers himself the wealthiest man now in Kansas. It weighed ten pounds We had a pleas ant visit from Rev. J.

Strain bought household goods at the sale we expect an item from there soon. . .Robert Vickers sold forty acres of corn in the field at $11 per acre. L. H. Mote, of Travel. Last Friday I boarded Lewis' train, Missouri Pacific, and rode all the way to Americus. There I boarded a buggy, drawn by two mules, and set sail for Four Mile creek. Rev. J. VanVoris was both engineer and fireman on the mule train. We made twenty miles in five hours, not very easy. The sun shone with August fury upon us, and tho wind whirled the dust right into our faces. On our way we crossed Wright, Rock and Big John creeks; the Neosho near the mouth of Four Mile creek, then drove up Four Mile to a point four miles south of Council Grove. We also drove by the city of Dunlap. Four Mile heads up in the hills of Morris county, runs almost directly east, and empties into the Neosho about five miles below Council Grove. The bot toms are narrow and fertile. There is a good deal of second bottom land on the north side of the creek. High, rocky hills press up closely to the creek on the south side. The creek is sup ported by springs and affords a good supply of stock water. The herd law prevails, the crops all grow outdoors and the people live on the commons. I think the people are about ready to fence. Wheat was about half a crop; early planted eorn ditto; late planting, a failure. I found some old friends here, J. C. Pickett and Wm. Johnson, and they are readers of Tbb News. a R. R. To promote a vigorous growth of the hair, use Parker's Hair Balsam. It re. stores the youthful color to gray hair, removes dandruff, and cures itching of the scalp. RAILROAD RACKET The Pacific road is to have a new foun dry at Parsons, and is now receiving the brick ror same. .- The Kansas City Mail says It looks very much as if there would be a good many changes in the Missouri Pacific administration, and. knowing ones hint that an entirely ne-v set of officers will be chosen. Commonwealth: Mr. F. W. Giles went tQ Garnet I yesterday to attend to business connected with the building of the Garnett and Topeka railroad. The first proposition to aid the company was voted upon yesterday. The D. Sc R. G. railway have contract ed to pay $100,000 for blasting out a single cut seven miles below Lake City in San Juan county, Colorado. The cut will be 400 feet long. It costs some thing to buiid railroads in that country. Iola Correspondence Topeka Capital: Hon. F. W. Giles visited Iola in the in terests of the Topeka, Iola & Memphis railroad last week. It this road ia com pleted it will be a great benefit not only to this part of Kansas but also to the capital, as it will give a direct route to Topeka, instead of the round-about way by Ottawa and Lawrence. No doubt much trade will be transferred from Kansas City to Topeka. Ia case tins road is built, the large machine shops here, for many years unoccupied, might again be put to use. The track of the A-, T. & S. F. road, which was washed away for a considers, ble distance between Alburquerque and Deming has been repaired and trains will now run regularly. For four days it was necessary to transport passengers in carriages over Glorietta mountain, a distance of twenty miles, which was done at a great expense to the company, who also provided meals, and, where necessary, sleeping apartments. The passengers experienced . some incon venience, of course, but in speaking of the incident, said they enjoyed the change from the cars, and the pleasant ride. Eureka Herald : It is reported that an engineer corps has been ordered to Howard to run a line from that place to the south line of the state for the im mediate extension of - the Kansas City, Emporia & Southern road. The matter is not fully ready at present, we believe, owing to the necessity of making repairs and finishing up work at several points on the main line. But it is said that as soon as the men and material can be spared from these it is the intention of the company to extend the line as above. We hope the work will be speedily ac complished, and that the business and length of the road will justify the run ning of a regular passenger train daily, instead of the mixed train we now have, A correspondent of the New York Tribune, writing of dishonesty in Mexi co, says : "In regard to stealing, this I know, that nothing along the line of the. great 'Mexican' railroad from Vera Cruz to the city of Mexico is left outside after dark; nothing that the strength of two men can lift Even the car couplings are taken inside the station and locked up. This road once intro duced air breaks on their cars, but the workmen punched holes in the pipes and stole the tubing, so they were taken off. On the 'National' road, and doubt less on all others, also, they stole the borts that fastened the rails to the ties until they were finally riveted on. One of a gang of workmen undertook to steal the cap off a cartridge of dynamite, and the result was that he and several others went to their reward." State Pair Motes. Major Anderson promises the finest display the Flambeau Club ever made. Generals Sheridan and Pope are rus ticating in Colorado, and will undoubt edly be present at tho reunion. Other notable army officers have also been in vited. The fireworks to be used during the sham battle, were shipped from Chicago, yesterday. The list embraces 200 dozen eight ball colored Roman candles, 10 dozen half pound colored rockets, 2,000 No. 5 cannon fire crackers, 50 four inch shells, and 50 maroons and the mortars from which to fire them. The organization of the members of the corps that marched with Sherman to the sea, was proposed to Capt Geo. R. Peck, and the idea struck him so favor ably that he at once took steps to see it carried into effect As a result, all members of Sherman's army who marched to the sea, arc requested to re port to Capt. A. M. Fuller as soon as possible in order that all may be en rolled, and the details of the proposed march be completed. The plan, so far as developed, is that the Shenoen men shall march together in the grand march to the fair grounds, on the 15th, singing "Marching Through Georgia" and other songs. This, like many other happily conceived projects, will add greatly to the interesting features of the reunion. In answer to the strictures of the daily- press charging the management of the Stat Fair with offering attractions which they knew would not be on hands, the Topeka papers claim that as to Grant there is at least a possibility of his being there and that when they promised Maud S. and St Jclien the managers had reason to believe that they might be procured. It is, however, unfortunate that in the face of the lying promises made by the Bismarck fair last year the managers of the State Fair this year should have promised so many things which they will not be able to show up. There will be a series of contests at base ball during the State Fair between the Westerns, of Topeka, and a profes sional club of the west A-Card. We desire to return nnv tbanks to the friends, members of our church and congregation, who gave us anh m. hartnv anmviaA last Ti,..,. eveniner. for the valuable r resents whirl 1 f J H.w.aaw .ua. Ul.

Read what Plankinton & house firm say whep first buying the Machine. Office or Plankinton & Ahmocb, Kansas City. Ma. March 6, 1880. t Gentlemen: We would say that we have been trying for nearly ten years to get a sewing machine that would sew satisfactorily the heavy muslin bags for hams. Have tried a number of machines, but until we tried the Royal St. John we have never been able to get a machine that would make a long elastic stitch without drawine or nuckerme the cloth. Your machine does the work perfectly. on account of the firm, round, elastic stitch peculiar to the St, John ; and by its rapid motion and light running we are able to make on one machine about 1,500 sacks per day with ease to the operator. This we could not do on any other ma chine, although we tried them thoroughly. We also regard it as the simplest, most durable and lightest running machine we have ever tried. We have put it to the severest test and freely recommend it. Plankinton & Armour, per W. P. Alleutt, Supt. What they say after would be equal to 3 hours dinarv family use. No SUCH A RECORD. They lly machine. i Messrs. Trcmbclu, Reynolds & inquiry as to how we still like the bought of you, would say that alter using tnem almost constantly tor some eigntcco months, and makins on an a vera so of over half a million sacks on each machine, or at the rats of 1,500 to 1,800 on each machine per day, we like them as well as when we first bought them. Cannot see any precepuble wear, and no Sewing Ma chine that we have ever seen would have done the work as satisfactory and with as little trouble and expense to us, not having cost one cent tor repairing.
