It is the first meeting of the uncle and nephew for thirty years. Mr. Moyer thinks seriously of locating in this county as he is pleased with the appearance of the country and can readily sell his farm in Missouri for a good price. His locating here would add a good citizen and a straight democrat to tbe community and consequently is greatly to be desired. The opera house management has booked the Signor Blitz Co.

Orvis discovered on the floor of his sleeping apartment a let ter, which informed him that if he would come to Kansas City and bring $150 with him he could recover his bonds and papers. Mr. Orvis promptly set out for Kansas City and on arriving there, as he Btepped upon tbe platform. a stranger asked him it bis name was Orvis. Being answered in the affirmative the man told him he would meet him at a hotel.

They went to an ob scure part of the city and there Mr. Orvis exchanged the 8150 for his lost bonds, and it is needless to say was well satisfied with the transaction. The manner in which the letter got into Mr. Orvis' room is a mystery yet unsolved. It was written on a piece of paper apparently torn from the center of a shee of fools cap.

The edges of the sheet were all ragged and uneven. The writing was fair and the spelling entirely correct. Guy Jones th Winner. The Rainsburg Comedy Co. closed a week's engagement at the opera house last Saturday night with a very fine au dience.

Concerning the entertainment "Female Masonry a la Lease," to be given October 11th by the ladies of jeen Bess Chapter, an Iowa exchange says: "A thoroughly unique entertainment. A regular light comedy, which proved to be a hit from beginning to end. The exemplification of woman's idea of a masonic ritual was rich. More than 300 people went away delighted with the innovation and success of the evenkig's entertainment." One day last week Miss Henrietta Jones and Rev. Ernest Bobbet, driving, met with an experience which might have proved unfortunate.

It was given recently at Omaha and the daily Bee commented as follows: "A mo3t comi cal entertainment. The way imagina tion run riot was most amusing. From the "Most Illustrious High Moul" to the "Grand Inner guard of the Temple Keyhole," all acquitted themselves with credit, while the weird and ghostly cos- umes and dim religious light lent en chantment to tbe scene. The hall was crowded, and the ladies realized quite a um for their treasury." Merrlfleld Aealnst the City.

Something You Should Know. Five years ago Miller Penwell opened their store, and as fast as the people learned that Miller Pen-well's store was for the best interest the people, they have stuck to Eureka and Greenwood county. Manyi times have we heard it said, "I used to trade at Eldorado, or Howard, or Emporia, or Yates Center, because I could do better than at Eureka, but now I can do better at Eure-ka by trading at Miller Pen-well's than I can do at any other town." And we say in return, that we are pleased to have so many good people trade with us, and we are better prepared than ever before to do you good, and we solicit your help and trade this fall. The first part of 1895 is recorded as the lowest point goods have touched in the his tory of this country, and we were fortunate, as we bought many goods early, and got the best selected stock of staple goods to be had, and we know our prices all the way through are low, and our goods are good. Come in to see us; come in for your fall bill; come in and look around; come in and see if what we say is not true.
