There is no truth iu tho report that J. II. Gardner has sold his Union Depot Hotel. A gentleman Is here making offers, but there ia liitle likelihood that a trade will be made. The St.

Joe youth lately broke bread with Gardner, of the Union Hotel, and in his issue of yesterday says: "The KitchonBroa. are but amateurs in comparison." Tberc Is much more agitation of the temperance question iu St. JOG than in Atchison, although we have a prohibitory law. Liquor selling 1 in St. Joe is a leading and respectable business.

Those gentlemen who spent so much time and money on their gardens early in the season are figuring up the result, and flnd they have had an experience somewhat similar to Horace Greelor's. A monument should bo erected to Lon May, pabHsbcr of a paper nt Falls City. The othor day we asked him how much of a circulation he had for his daily. "Between fifty-five and sixty," ho answered. A.

The annual howl of hard times in Western Kansas is heard, and we presume that in a day or two the usual crowd will go East soliciting aid.

WATERMELONS ON ICE. JOHN PERKINS, 616 Commercial St. It is believed that the work of boring for ottlin Atchlson will commence next Monday, MS the diamond drill will arrive today, and it will not be difficult, to raitse 000 on the terms proposed. It will" not take many weeks to feet, and once this Is accomplished, the work of digging the shaft will commence. A indefinite amount of money can be raised for this purpose on the monthly installment plan, and there is reason eastern capital bhoild do the work or divide the profits.

A coal mine employing thousand men is superior to a manufactory employing thousand the leason ibat nothing ia paid out for raw m.iterial; God supplies that, and every dollar received for is so much clear gain to the city, as none of It goes east for any purpose. The GLOHK has several times warned its readers to beware of ndvertising schemes which do them no good, and which are wily calculated to put money in, the pockets of the tramps who bore business men advertisements. There IB a rnun in the city representing the St. Louis Trade Jourr.fi-- a paper we never heard of before, ami perhaps no business man iu Atchison has ever heard of it--who agrees to write up any business firm, providing: they take two hundred or more copies of his paper, and pay llTo dollars a hundred for them. This simply amounts to paying ten dollars or more for puff an Atchison business house in a St.

Louis paper. There might be some sense in a St. I ouis wholesale house advertising in an Atchison paper, but the idea of Atchison retail housoi advertising in a St. Louis paper strikes us as a gloomy absurdity. J.

S. Munford, the confidence man lately Operating on the frontier of Kansas, made the loan companies his victims; a great many will excuse him on that account. Going out among the homesteaderd, he induces a committee of farmers to sign a statement that a certain Piece of land is wsrth a thouiand, or two thoasaud dollars, althouKh it may not be worth a hundred, whereupon the homesteader goes to AVat- kins A of Lawrence, and borrows from six hundred to a thousand dollars on his land, which puts him in good condition leave the country. Munford's commission is not stated. Mrs.

DeWolf, Mrs. Bangs and Miss May Bangs, mediums, were arrested at the Otis House this morning by the Marshal for doing business without a license. They claim that the Marshal might as well arrest a Methodist minister on a similar charge, as they are evangelists. The case will be heard to-morrow. Mrs.

and Miss Bangs were formerly residents of Atchison, the husband and father having carried on the tin and stove business here thirteen years ago, but we believe they are now residents of Chicago. The People's Clothing Store is now iu operation at the of Sixth and Commercial, and it is believed that Tho will give it patronage for the following reasons: 1.

Its expenses are light, insuring low prices; 4.

It carries the most extensive assortment goods; 5. Its goods are all lato and fashionable, of this year's manufacture. Twenty-five young people will assist in the proposed production 'Billee Taylor'' iu Atchison. Fifty rehearsals will be necessary, and estimating that hours are consumed at each two thousand fire hundred hours are necessary in its preparation.

These places are worse than gambling houses, as by a groat many they are considered half way respectable. A gentleman who has lately been i prairie chickens, and who found it necessary to scare them out of the corn fields, says that every field which has been taken care of promises a good yield, but that slouch farmers tell the troth when they say their corn is scarce. Officer Taylor a coon from the West last night for being in a bawdy house, and carrying concealed weapons. Ho was fined in the police court to-day, and promptly whacked np.

The German Immigration society lately formed in Atchison, is already accomplishing some good.
