THE FORT SCOTT WHEKL1T MONITOKi iTHUESBAY 'AUGUST 17, 1882 We find the following, in the Leaven LOCAL MATTERS. One hundred and fifty of those who came LEGAL NOTICES. MarketsBy Telegraph. Miss Clara Stewart took the noon train yesterday to visit friends at Kansas City and the- State Line. Miss Josie Walters of Middlebury, Indiana, came in last evening to visit Mrs.1 George4 Goodlander.

Miss Minnie Prager and Miss Maggie Davis took the Wichita train for a short vitiv to Iola yesterday. 4 Miss Mel Sallee, who" has been visiting at Emporia, returned home yesterday by way of the Wichita road. William H. Press, the St. Louis cor-respondent of the Westliehe Post, is in the in on the excursion train yesterday stopped over in this city, and as a consequence the hotels of tbe citp were all full last night Treat them kindly, deal with them honestly and every mothers son of them will like yon better and have a kindly feeling for our city.

The machinery of the Gulf railroad ma chine shop was started up on Monday and we understand that everything worked like a charm. The engine proved to be first class and the other machinery did well considering that it was a'triai start and tha none of it had been bolted down in its place. Mr. J. E.

AHison, who is selling fruit for Dr. Wm. Haves of Scott Township, com plimented the editor of the Monitor with a peck of as choice peaches yesterday as we have seen in over 17 years' residence in Kansas. Dr. Hayes, we understand, has a fine orchard, and is much intent on having good frutU Judge Cheney received a communication from a lady in the west part of the county yesterday stating that she suspected that her boy was going to get married and she wished to mlorm big honor that she pro tested against his being bound up in the bonds of holy wedlock.

In other words wished to prohibit the marriage of her boy. T. N. Dallas, the Market street baker, keeps one of the most neatly equipped and best managed restaurants in the city. Why is this? Because he understands his busi ness and is an affable and well bred gentle man.

Call and see Dallas and you wil enjoy your ice cream, soda water c. 1 you want a fine cake Dallas' is the place to get it. Editor Monitor. Will you please be kind enought to give the correct way spelling a lady's name, as Malinda or Me- unda. men is correct Also rincy or Felicie.

Malinda is correct, also Felicie The latter name is derived from the Latin Felicia, meaning happiness, and is pro Bounced with the accent on the first syl able. There will be an ice cream festival given at Red field in the new store house of Fahs Stower, Friday evening, the 25th August, for the purpose of raising funds to pay for an organ in the M. E. Church a that place. All are cordially invited to attend and help in the good work.

Good music and plenty to eat. Come one. Come all. By order of Committee. The Bourne Paint and Cement Pipe works has been started up in earnest.

For the last two days they have been grinding burned clay for flues and chimney pipes They have burned their first kiln of clav, and will now go right along with the bust ness. Their grinding at present is being done by horse-power, but they are having a steam engine made at the Fort Scott Foun dry. H. E. Cooper, who held nineteen of the twenty-eight shares in the Evergreen Ceme tery, has sold his interest to Mr.

Coventry, who will hereafter have charge of, the cemetery. Mr. Cooper returns his thanks to the people of tbe city for courtesies, and hope they will extend similar treatment to Mr. Coventry. When he sold out Mr.

Cooper intended to make a. pilgrimage to Jerusalem, but he has now concluded to defer his visit till next tall a year, when he expects to be fully prepared. Local politics cannot' be said to be warming up to any considerable extent yet. Among the candidates which are considered in the field are Messrs. Frankenberger, Cheney Winters, Brinker on and Limbocker.

our of these gentle men are already in office serving their first erm, and it is not probable, from present appearances, tnat the three nrtt mentioned will have any opposition. The'friends of Judge Limbocker, however, have groomed him, and will make a lively contest for the position of County Attorney. We wish to call the especial attention of our readers to the advertisement of Heine's restaurant, to be found in another place. Those of our readers from the country who want a good meal and a clean one, can always find it at the new brick restaurant at the junction of Main and Market streets and the market Lunch can be had at any time and Mr. Heine keeps always on hand good cider, soda water and lemonade.

He has also commenced the manufacture of koumis, a most delicious and refreshing drink, which he keeps on hand for the use of his' cus tomers. Ray Hartley. Tom Taylor and John Kerns had a match race on their bicycles yesterday, and all three of them started from the head of Wall street in the direc tion of the Gulf depot Everything and he bicycle went all right until they got nearly in front of Capt. Harmon's grocery store, when, a pig made its appearance in such a position that Ray tried to ride over it with his bicycle, but the incline up the pig'a was so great that he took to the street quicker than he had bargained for. Just aa be tumbled lorn came up.

and ailing over Ray, both were stretched for a ew seconds loosing up to see it the stars had yet made their appearance. Charley Kerns was the only one of the party that wasn't pig struck. Captain George J. Clark, W. T.

Lez- gatt, of Terre Haute, E. D. Steec, of Danville, Illinois, agents of the Gulf road, came in yesterday with eight cars oaded with excursionists or land seekers to explore and examine the fertile fields of Southern Kansas. Many of them will make heir future homes here. This was the argest excursion that was ever, to our own knowledge, brought to Southern Kansas at any one time by these gentlemen, and all of those who came seemed to be well-to-do and comfortably fixed people, mostly from Illinois.

One feature noticed by the reporter while the train stopped at the depot, was i hat many of those came were accom panied' by their families and seemed to have come to stay. Right here we think it appropriate to say that if any of par. readers have any friends in the east tht they would think of inviting to witness bur crops and other resources and prospects, that now the, lima Mo Esud 'thern aa. iyitv Send fct ontei I im worth Standard General Blair, who has been in the city for some days, leaves to-day tor lie will in about a week, when, we 'understand, it is his expectation to purchase property and make Leavenworth his future home. Mrs Blair and daughters remains here during his absence.

It is with sincere pleasure that we learn of this intention on the part of General Blair. One of the most rarely gifted men of the West, and a gentleman of great personal worth, General Blair will be a valuable acquisition to the business and professional circles of Liea en worth while his accomplished and estimable family will be an equal accession to our eocUI circles. Q. Campbell, general ticket agent of the St. Louis, Fort Scott Wichita railroad has recently cotfsatnated arrangements whereby the trans lines east nave put on round trip explorer's tickets from all points east to ates Center, Kansas, via t.

ocott as a result of which thirty passengers came in on the Gulf road from the east yesterday for Yates Center. They were transferred to the Wichita train on their arrival. They will visit different points along the Fort Scott Wichita road, and our city on their return, and will no doubt add to our popu lation and. interests. These excursions will be weekly instead of fortnightly, as they used to be, and this is but the beginning of the hundreds yet to come to view the fertile lands afong the line of this new road.

Mr. Campbell, in making this arrangement, has added to the benefits of bis road, but he has added also some interest and benefits to our town that will be of material advantage to us, and he is deserving of the good will of our people. lne JNationai uemetery, which is now under the care of Major Commerford, pre sents a very beautiful appearance. The present season, in many respects, has been a very favorable one and has been improv ed to the utmost extent in resoddmg the bare spots with bloegrass and patting out flow ering shrubbery in suitable places, Dur ing a recent visit to the cemetery Major Commerford described a very beautiful ivy which was being grown over the stone fen ces of other cemeteries in the South. That species is not suitable to this climate.

He has an ivy, however, which will grow here, taht he has planted around the entire wall that encloses the cemetery, which he thought next season would cover it entirely up, and which will add greatly to its beau ty. The houses and other improvements on tne ground are Kept in excellent repair. Within a few days the gateway on the west side, which opens out upon the National road will bo finished when the National road and Cemetery drive will surpass any thing of the kind in this part of the State. Visitors should bear in mind, however, that the regulations of the quartermaster department are very strict, and that Major Commerford is bound by them. They re quire that the gates shall be closed at sun down invariably.

There are more pears in the market this year than ever before. It woold seem from the amount of this fruit brought to market that every par tree in the county has brought forth its fruit. The boom has fairly begun, and will continue until the winter sets in. This is as it should be. Now that you cannot spend your money for whisky, you ought to have a little left to keep up the boom.
