Edwards sold a house and lot on Fort Scott street Fri- day to Ella }. Kennett for the snug little sum of nine hundred dollars. How is that for high. The line of the Fort Scott, St. Louis & Chicago railroad is surveyed across the Marias des Cygne near Rattikins’ mill, east of the old Bur- lington & Southwestern crossing. We imagine ourself sitting ina street car, dead beating the company out of a ride and chatting with the lady and gentlemen passengers, gathering up crumbs to dish out to the booming Timres. Between free rides and free lunches won't the editor of the local column be in hog heaven? We beg to say to the kind and considerate lady or ladies who sent us that basket tull of fine cake Saturday, that this expression of your kindness toward us, will whether, in adversity or prosperity, in sickness or in health, in poverty or in wealth, occupy the greatest spot in our re- py 8 memberance. A. Henry, Mayor. hone and A, L. Betz bought last week the Sperry addition to Rich Hill, containing eighty acres. Mr. Betz informed us this morning that on Friday he sold lots amounting to ten thousand dollars off of their purchase. This does pretty well for the Hill. That accomplished and sprightly young lady, Miss Dora Heath, did the local the honor Friday evening at the Odd: Feilows entertainment to sing ‘golden slippers’ for us. She is gifted with a clear, sweet mellow voice and isa fine musician. We are truly grateful to the young lady. Col. Ed. Vance drew a_ petticoat at Prof. Taylor’s entertainment last night. The thing is red, and then, besides it don’t fi. the Col. It is long before and too short behind. The Col. is puzzled to know what to do with the fetched thing. Why. Col. send it to your — . Those things were made for girls and not for us boys, don’t you know. too The following named gentlemen compose the Sutler street railway company to whom the city copncil granted the franchise reported in our issue of Friday: W. E. Walton, R. G. Hartwell, W. Stephens, J. P. Edwards, Fred Fvans, A. L. Me- Bride, Capt. Hannah and A. H. Lamb. These are all gentlemen of means and full of enterprise, and will put that project through in quick time. Pe aa That clever, liberal and genial gentleman, Judge D. V. Brown, to- day presented us with an elegant pipe, for which he will please accept our unfeigned thanks. Now we have a pipe and fine cigar holder. Can't some of the rest of the charity boys at the court house shove the smoking tobacco and cigars at us? Don’t be atraid. We ain’t a bit mean about accepting presents of that kind. We just laid our faber down, and tell to thinking about our Jemima. She is the preitiest and best little lump ot feminity that ever filled the heart of man with love. In our mind’s eye we can see her golden tresses lying in careless luxuriance about her swan-like neck, and her torm, the most symmetrical that was ever chisseled out by nature and al- though seperated trom her by many | hundred miles, her soft blue eyes seem to look down into our heart and feeds the fames of love that rages there for her. i i We waked up gobbling this morn- jing and our devil said he thought ; roost in the neigh- there was a turk | borhood somewhere.

The tardy action of the city coun- cilin granting the tranchise asked for by the street railway company should not induce any one to become lukewarm the advancement of that enterprise. Doubtless action of the council had been char- acterized by more promptitude and energy a considerable outlay of money might have been avoided in the purchase of couches and _ rails from parties in Kansas City. We understand, however, that a legal question was raised before the coun- cil in reference to the power it pos- sessed under the law and the extent of that power to grant the franchise in prayed tor by the petitioners caused | the delay on the part of the council for not acting sooner. The council, we suppose, wanted to be right and then go ahead. And now that the council has acted granted all asked for, let our people unite and lend a helping hand one and all, to this enterprise which will put another metropolitan feather in Butler’s cap the the and and be a great convemence to source of profit to public and ¢ share holde The Western Theatrical Company on its first appearance in our city was greeted by a smaller audience | This | is, however, mainly attributable to | than we had expected to see. the threatening state of the weather on (Monday) evening, which doubtless deterred many of our theatre-going people from at- tending, and to the further fact tha Prof. Taylor had {ust closed a series ot brilliant entertainments in the city of a week’s duration, and our peo- ple may have, if we may be permit- ted to use the expression, become somewhat surfeited on public enter- ainments. The local as usual, on such occasions, answered promptly at roll-call and takes pleasure in say- ing to the readers of the Times that the performance was even more than yesterday the company’s bills promised, and under the circumstances highly cred- itable to it. Miss Nettie Adams, the leading character m last evening's drama, was unavoidably absent on account of sickness, and her place “ supplied by Miss Myers ina very satisfactory manner, although the Indy was unused to the part and had but a short time m which to pre- pare herself. Every one can readily appreciate the company’s embarrass- ment occasioned by the absence ot It unhinges its leading character, the entire programme. Suffice it to say that all the characters were ad- mirably sustained. Uarry T. Loomis as Frank Farady, Harry Vender as uncle Derwent, J. A. Barabetas Mr. T. Blaze, were especially happy in the rendition of their parts. Take it all in all, we pronounce the enter- tainment a good one.

And now it becomes our , pleasing duty to record in the col-| umns of the Times, we fear an in- | adequate discription of the entertain- ment given last evening by the Odd Fellows of this city at their hall, and | without detracting in the least from other brilliant entertainments that | we have attended, and the pleasure afforded us by them, candor anda kind we ever witnessed here or else- where, and reflected the highest | credit upon the fraternity ; and many days will come in the history of But- ler, if ever, when the entertainment of last evening will be eclipsed in all that goes to make an occasion of that sort enjoyable. Two tables, almost the entire length of the spacious E fairly groaned under the weight of the best viands land affords. The tables were simply beautiful, and the eatables in great abundance and ot almost infinite variety. In the centre ot the table that sat near the eastern wall of the mammoth cake, pyramidal in form, two feet in height, on the top of the hall v a | whick were two hands clasped, and around the body of it was inscribed in izeing letters, Butler Lodge, No. 180, I. O. O. F. The western table was also very handsome. consisted of pork, cold ham, chick- ens and turkeys, coppered with oysters raw and oysters stewed, serv- | ed up in elegant style. The deserts were in great variety and delicious.
