Hartford, Kansas. Dn. Vail. We met Dr. Win.

T. ail in tlie city this week. He came down from Manhattan, his present home, on business. Through tho solicitations of old friends he was in deed to remove from here to Man- huttnn, and wc are glad to learn that ho Is doing well there, having already received a large practice in his profes sion. Durini his stay here he made many warm friends, some of whom an testify to his proiicieucy in tho ealiiigart.

He was un aider of every good work, and his iufluencc will ul- ways bo for good wherever ho lives. Wo may say as much also of his estim- ble wife, Mrs. E. M. Vail, who assists him In the medical profession.

She took a prominent part here in working for Ihu good of the community. Man hattan is really to be congratulated on the accession of Ir. nml Mrs. Vail to their town. Didn't Wore Well.

The means adopt Jl by Chase county lad to come In possession ol dry goods, cloth ing and "sieh like," didn't work well. His name Is Wesley Allen House, and his age Is 17. He lives (when ho Is at home) Out about Bazaar. The oth er day he came to town with a couple of lorged orders for goods, one on Wibley A Henson and the other on Wm. Clapp, both amounting to some $23.

To one of these orders was signed the name of Wm. Baker, who lives few miles west of town, and to the other a. name which we have forgot ten. iThe orders were made payable to Bradley, orders were rllten by Mary Housu, his sister, be cause the young man could not write. On Monday Hank Lowe went out and arrested the parties.

They bud a hearing before Esquire Bacheller Tuesday. The youug lady was discharged, because it appeared that she was perfectly innocent, merely writ ing the order at the dictation of her brother, and protesting that she did not know anything about the object. Wesley was bound over to court in the sum of 3U0 in each case. The gicl was sent home. Weley Allen House alias George Bradley will probably have ample time to reflect over the error of his ways.

Better Late than Never. We are aware th it is no news to many of our readers to aunounce that Prof. A. D.

Editor News: I noticed, some time since, in your paper, a notiflca tion that there was pending before the Board of County Commissioners petition praying that honorable body to appropriate ol a mill of the tax able property of the county to the improvement of the county fair grounds. I am friendly to the county fair enterprise, and hope it will abund antly prosper, but I am not In favor ot thus mixing matters. I under stand those lands belong to and are entirely underlie control of a joint stork company, and that said company propose to release nothing. Should the county be required to fur nish some 1,000 or $1,100 annually over which it can have no control, simply lor the benefit and profit of Individuals? I think it ehould not. If the company are willing to carry on the institution, well: If they are not, let them relinquish to tho county commissioners the whole management that they may manage it in accordance with thtir liking.

Tax payers, let us hear from yon and if there is any feasible plan by which the prosperity ol the enterprise can be facilitated, let us hear it. Allen Ckeek. THE MISTLETOE BOUGH. The mistletoe bough hung In the castle hall, The holly brnncli shone on the old oak wall'; And tho baron's retainers were blithe and gay. Keeping their Christmas holiday The baron beheld with a father's prido, His beautiful child, young veil's bride While she with her bright eyes, seemed to be The star or the goodly company.

Away she ran and her friends begrn Each tower to search, and each nook to scan And young Lovell ciied, "Oh where dost thou hide I'm lonesome without thee, my own dear bride. Oh I the mistletoe bough Oh the mistletoe bough They sought her that night! aud they sought her next day And they sought her in vain, when a week pass'd away In the highest, the lowest, the loneliest fcpot, Young Lovell sought wildly, but found her not, And years flew by, and their grief at last Was told as a sorrowful tale long past And when Lovfcli appear'd, the children cried, "See! the old man weeps for his fairy bride."

UEBTINO OF NORMAL BEOEXTS. Prof. Hni Elaetad to Uta PrMidaaej-tba Iutltutloa. The Board of Regents of the State Normal school held a session in this city on tlie Gth and 7th, all the mem bers being present but Col. Horner.

Among the Items of business dlspo ed of was the acceptance ot the new buildinz from the hands of the con tractor. It was resolved to open the model school at the commencement of the next year, and procure a Principal for this department. Prof. Hoss was unanimously re elected to the Presidency of tlie insti tution. The election of members of the Faculty was postponed until the next meeting.

Steps were taken looking to the for mal dedication of the new building on Commencement day, June 19th. The Board adjourned to meet again on the 18th of June. A WHISKY TRIUMPH IN EMPORIA Tha New Council Passes a I-lr, ne Or. dlaaan ror years Emporia kept the upper hand of the whlskyites, but they have been gaining ground for some time. With the rush thiee or four years ago came saloons, and all efforts to close them have proved unavailing.

Saloons have been running here In defiance of public sentiment and all efforts to close them. This state of things has brought about a considerable change in senti ment, many goou temperanco men having come to the conclusion that the matter could be kept under better con trol by granting a license. In the last spring election the license question was not an issue, and the license party elected four men. The ordinance, which we publish in another columu, was introduced at a former meeting, and came tip last Mon day night. There was much excitement on the subject that day, and a goodly number of people attended the meeting.

After a full discussion the ordinance was possed bjr the following vote: For the ordinance Messrs. Ban croft, Cleveland, Beck and McCarter. Against Messrs. Wicks, Lakln, Esk-ridge and Nichols. Mayor Spicer promptly untied this tie by voting for the ordinance, and so, for the first time, we have a license for whisky shops in Emporia.

We will only say now, that we believe a mistake has been made. We believe that drinking will increase. Time alone will determine. We are of opinion that many of the men who favored license will regret this step. AVe have no doubt but that they are actuated by the best of motives.

They think license the best for the community. While we never should, under any circumstances, vote to license saloons we are willing others shall enjoy their freedom ot opinion and shall not abuse those who differ with us; yet we firm ly believe that had an issue been' made on this question at the spring election the result would have been different. We believe the people of the city are still opposed to obtaining money by licensing a traffic that leads to crime and misery. Let us give the raattet a fair test, and prepare for a change if It Is deemed best to make one. as we have no doubt it will be.

AGXES CITY. Persuant to notice there was a re spectable number of our citizens met at 33d district school house, on tlie 3d Inst to discuss the matter of the Trust Claim interest. Addresses were delivered by 31 r. Humes, Governor Stover, Gov. Sharp, Mr.

C. Columbia, R. McMillan and others. All unani mously agreed that the recent appraisement of the above mentioned lands was unjust and altogether too high. vote was taken to mo how mauy were sallsOed with the appraisement of their claims.

There was only tour in the affirmative. Then a vote was taken to see how many were of the opinion that the appraisement, upon the whole, was unjust, and the re sult was unanimous in the affirmative. A committee of live was appointed on address, with Duncan McDonald, of Council Grove, as chairman, to draw up an address or petition setting forth our grievances, to be presented to the Secretary of the Interior, and our del egation in Congress. There was also a resolution passed requesting each school district ts ap point three committeemen to look ap cases in the locality and forward to Duncan F. McDonald to enable the committee on address to make the case from.

I believe it was the unanimous be lief ot all present that the foregoing plan, if carried out, will be conducive of great good to the aforesaid settlers, and to the county at large. As Lyon and Morris counties are largely inter ested we would like to bear from others on this subject. At the first monthly meeting of the Agnes City Farmers' Club, on the 3d the following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, McMillan; Vice-President, R. Clark Secretary, II. F.

ITsr 5th, PLYMOUTH. ditojc News: We have been blessed lately with an abundance of rain, which has added much to tlie looks of the small grain. The contin ued chilliness of the weather retards the growth of the spring grain, but at the same time it is forming root for Vigorous growth when tho weather becomes favorable. A change was made in section bosses here a week or two since. Mr.

Deweese was replaced by a Mr. Hicks, a thoroughly competent man In his business. Mr. D. has taken up his lo cation in Emporia.

Facrr Pbosfkcts. The prospect for apples, plums, and sherries in this section is good, the greater number of trees being lull of bloom. I that there are some few peach blos soms on the trees on the divide north ot us, and I hope that the blossoms may remain uninjured. As Old Citizen Gone. In the death of- David Roth this community has lost a good citizen, and one who has worked with industry and econ omy for a number of years (he being one among the first who settled in this neighborhood) and just as lie had ac quired a competence to enable him to enjoy the blessings of his bard labor, he was called to his long home.

And thus, one by one, wc are passing away. I feel like keeping the fact before- the farmers tbr.t it is to their interest to connect themselves to some of the many organizations forming and now already formed In this township and county. There seems te be an apathy on the part of a great many to take hold of the matter. There are many and Innumerable that they will be more than remunerated for all time aud money expended in the enter prise. I have facta before me satis factory to my mind that by presenting solid front and co-operating with the State Association that a reduction of at least one-half can be had on onr agricultural implements.

Is this not sufficient inducement to urge every farmer to become actively engaged in the enterprise. Come out, farmers, and let us begin immediately to reap the benefits ot co-operation. Let us double and thribble the names on the list of the organizations. Let us give our meetings better attendance. A few cannot carry this matter along without the eo-operatlon and earnest support of all those directly interested.

Come out, clodhoppers, for heaven's sake, and let us make it a success. J. E. L. May 6,1873.

A Word to Travelers We have a word to say in favor of the Missouri pacific railroad. It was tlie "pioneer line Westward and is the "old reliable" route to St. Lonis. Wijh the improvements which have been made during the past year, we believe that the Missouri Pacific railroad lias the best track and the finest and safest equip ment of any line west of the Mississ ippi. It is the only line which runs three daily express trains of fine coaches and Pullman sleepers, equip ped with the Miller platform and the patent air brake, from leading points Iu the West, through Kansas City, tie dalia and Jefferson City to St Louis without change, connecting at St.

Louis with eleven different through routes to points XorO, East and South Particular information, with maps, timetables.
