Holland, were in the city Mon- day. $55 will buy one of those beauti- tul cottage organs at the Music Store. g3t Suturday morning was another stinger and run the thermometer way down. B. H. Smith, one of Sprague’s most prominent citizens, spent a couple of days in town last week. J. W. Redmon and lady, of Sum- mit township, gave the booming Times a pleasant call Friday last. Rev. A. Walker, lett Monday night tor Tipton, on a short business trip, he will return the latter part o! the week. The Emporia railroad company are busily at work putting in a turn table at the depot. Miss Marv McBride, of this citv, who has been visiting friends and relatives in Montrose, returned home Monday. Judge Gantt will open court in this city Monday next. He will have a ten days’ docket to dispose ot, which will probably take him three weeks J. G. Collins, one of the solid tar- mers of Walnut township, gave us a pleasant call Monday. He intorm- ed us that he had crossed the island bridge which is about completed. Mrs. Ruth Young, aged 81 years, mother ot Mrs. A. Sherwood, died at the residence of her daughter, in this city, Tuesday of last week. She was a noble Christian lady,and loved and honored by all who knew her. Our young trend, Sam Walls, spent last week visiting friends in Nevada returning home Saturday. We rather think Sam 1s getting par- tial to Nevada, and are inclined to the opinion that that city will either have a valuable accession soon or lose one of its most charming daughters. One of the strongest points in the character of a great man is taithful- ness to triends. And on the other hand one of the most conclusive evi- dences ot smaliness is treachery to triends, The history of Arnuld and Aaron Burr are samples of what men come to who attract friends about them for their own aggrandizement, and when they have used them, turn and sting them like an adder. No man has ever yet gone 80 high on the ladder as to become i ndent of the friends who put him there. The first round on the ladder is no ex- ception to the general rule.—Ex. We are glad to say to our readers that Butler will again have a carriage shop. T. W. Legg is rebuilding en the old site as fast as the weather will permit. Mr. Legg will be sole owner, and manager of the business, and, as he was the mechanical head ef the Butler Carriage Works, we are assured that the wants of the rid- sng public can be satisfied by him. We would say patronize this mstitu thon, make it grow, compel him to increase his business, tor it is a ben- efit to the community. He informs us that he will be ready for all spring sepairs, remodeling, and repainting, &c., &c. Also that Catterlin & Legg have on hand a fine assortment et buggies and spring wagons that were not in the fire. Johnnie Orear, editor in chiet of the world renowned Thomas Cat, informs us that he has disposed of | the subscription list, advertising con- tracts and good wii! ot the Cat, to W. H. Gibbens, of the Archie New Era, and hencetorth Mr. Thomas will suspend business. The master | of the Cat is thinking of taking a trip | south for his health. Success to you Johnnie, wherever your lot may be cast. Now is your time to| dent. According to the Advertiser. an East Boone man came very near taking the town of Adrian last Satur- day. It luoks as though the people ot Kansas were having a judg ment sent upon them this winter if the shape bizzards. Ihe hogs in certain portions o Barton county are suttering greatly trom cholera, and a number of farm ers have lost heavily. Miss Houser, one at St. Louis’ most accomplished and charming belles, is in the city visiting her sister, Mrs. Jas. McFarland. The Adrian Advertser intorms us that the Recorder of that city, Tip Kirkpatrick’s paper, has been sold to a Butler man and will be removed to Foster. The wicked career ot the default- ing money loaner, S. E. Cheek, of Clinton, should be a warning to the recorders of this state to keep their seals under lock and key. ‘The subject at the Ohio strect M. E. church next Sunday morning will be “Daniel in Babylon,”’ at might a singing sermon concerning singing and singers. On Monday night there will be another entertainment of reading, music and spelling, conduct- ed much as the the last one was except a prize will be given to the one who spelis down all others chos en to spell, and three judges will de- cide al! matters pertaining to pro- nouncing, spelling and giving the prize Admittance ro cts.

About halt past eleven o’cleck last night, a horse belonging to Wm. T. Mudd, who lives on a tarm two miles northeast ot Rich Hill, was taken from the hitch rack on Sixth street near the Rich Hillbank. Mr. Mudd wasin the city tor the purpose of at- tending a meeting of the A,O U. W., lodge held last night. The ani- mal was a very fine mare, and 1s said to be valued at $125. Mr. Mudd came down trom the hall at about halt past ten o’clock to see it his mere was all right, and tound her just as he had lett her with both sad- dle and bridle on, After the lodge adjoured he went to get the animal to return home, when he discovered that she was mnssing, the halter having been cut witha knife or some sharp instrument. A search is being instituted to-day, but no tidings have, as yet, been received of her where- abouts.—R. H. Herald. Overcoats at cost at | American Clothing House.

Minnesota, who was in the city a short time ago on a visit, stated tha it was his opinion the Younger brothers would be pardoned next November, which would be the ex: piration of their ten years servitude. Sheriff Barton commanded the squad that captured the boys, and states that since their confinement thev have giyen no trouble. and on ac- count of their good behavior are al- lowed six days pay tor work out of each month, netting them about $30 in cash, which they are allowed to spend as they see fit- We see that confidence men are working the county, and wou'd ad- vise our farmers not to sign any pa- pers presented tothem. These con fidence fellows are working the same old game of pretended agricultural implement agents, and seem to be getting in their work on the tarmers in a number ot counties in thfs state. Their game is to get you to sign a contract which turns out to your sor- row in a short time tobe a plain note ot bond. Sign nothing tor a stran- ger if you do not “— to pay dear for it. Nevada, Mo., Jan. 30.—Henry S. Stair, who was hanged here Friday tor the murder of the Sewells, threw his handkerchief oft the scaffold and asked that it be delivered to Nannctta Osborne, who is accused of being an accomplice in the crime. Atter the execution the handkerchief was ex- amined and a line of writing in pencil was found onit. The words were very dim and parts of them were obliterated, and the first at- tempts to read them were tailures, To-day they were deciphered and were read as follows: 1 love her—I killed the Sewells. There is but little reason to doubt that Stair did the writing. On the scaffold he protested his innocence to the last. Overcoats at cost, Underwear at cost, Gloves at cost, ‘Caps at cost.
