visit to New York, finding the drug mar

advantage of it, and bought large stock
for the tall trade. He thinks by buying
Just at that time he made heavy saving

grand drug emporium of the State. By a
long course of honest and fair dealing,
combined with shrewd business tact, be

any house west of St. Louis. A large
number of the retail houses of Southern
and Western Kansas. depend almost ex
ciusivaly on the Round Corner for their

A RacheIOr9s Dream.

For TIE News
Bachelors Dream.
A bachelor sat musing in his house one day,
When the lightin the west had faded away;
His care-worn brow was famed by the breeze,
That came from the grapes which twined on
the trees.
No wOman's smile to cheer his sad. broken
heart;
Briny tears" from his eyes, now "unbidde n
start
With no dear little one to sit on his knee,
You know how very lonely the man must be
His cooking was done, he fnished his supper,
Consisting of bread without any butter
The thunder now roared in the star distant
west"
When the bachelor laid by mis- pants and his
vest.
1t is very true, although strange it may seem,
About 81 Woman's Rights" was the bachelors
dream;
His thoughts now wandered to that one e hap
Py time,
when he was young, in all his 7igOr and
prime.
He dreamed he was busy at work in his shop,
When in came a lady the QUESTION to pop.
She said good morning" with an innocent
smile.
Which proved her pure heart to be free from all
guile,
And if he but wanted partner for life,
She'd ever prove to him kind, faithful wife
And hand Joined in hand they'd journey to-
gether,
In sunshine and storm and ell sorts OF
weather.
He accepted her offer, answering Eyes"
And received in return G hug and a kiss.
How the dream ended is quite easy to tell
"By Katurah Bizby, Esq, Pleasant Dell"
And the fair lady, with hearty good will,
Drew out her pocket book and settled the bill

EDIroR EMP1RIA NEws-Sir: I see
by the Chase County Banner that such
men as James Jackson. D. Mcmillan aud
G. G. Allen are afraid to run for Office in
Chase county themselves, bat are endeav-
oring to import candidates to the extent
of insulting and OtherWiss ''muchly'' in-
juring the voters of that county. I am
not resident of Chase county, aud with
the fear of the ''statute in such case made
and provided" shall not ruu for any Of
fee in the county. So far as Mr.. McMil
Ian Is concerned. he has never asked the
people of Chase county to sustain him for
any Office. and if he should, the only
charge upon which his reputation has ev-
er been assailed, aud which might be made
use of against him. was for going into
partnership with the man who wrote the
article alluded to, and getting Glib )es(O
ca Jed out of everything he owned. As
for Mr.. Allen, be is at present one of the
county commissioners, doing his duty in
such way that his acts need no defense,
and bearing with patience the loss of that
SO so which came up missing recently.
while Sam Wood was prosecuting the
Impartial Suffrage campaign in his neigh
bOrhoOd. Rejoice. Oh ye Samuel. for
thou hast much gain from southern cat
tie, aud from the much money thou hast
taken from the people. But retribution
surely cometh. Then howl, Oh ye Sam
uel. for the people will scoff at thee. and
thou shalt seek place to hide thy wick

enough to hide it and thou shalt be

shall STAY thee.

COTTONWOOD FAILS. - Last Saturday
butiDess took us TO Cottonwood Falls.
1t bad been q year since we saw
the place. and it WAS with pleasure We
noticed the improvements on all hands.
The town is growing more rapidly
than We had anticipated. Many new
buildings had sprung up in all directions.
AS business point, we do not believe it
is excelled by any place of its size in the
State. H L. Hunt & Co., Sid. A Breese,
and j. S. DooIittls are doing a genera
dry goods, grocery. boot aud shoe, and
clothing business. They all have good
stocks, and are doing a Furnishing BUSH
ness. U. B. Warren, formerly of the
firm of Fraker & GiIlett, of this place,
keeps large stock of hardware, stoves,
tiuwars and agricultural implements. We
were really surprised at the extent of his
stock. +. Alliston runs the boot aud shoe
business. J. P. Kuhl & Co. carry on
the saddle and harness business, and
N-OtS % q iN'A SOAl p'cLuSuS VI OIL TUG F6Ii-
Gus mechanics in the place. L. D. Hnk-
ley keeps good hotel. He is now put
ting up large new building for the pur-
pose. When completed it will be one of
the largest aud best in Southwestern Kan
sas. He expects TO occupy it in the
course of a few onlhs, when be will
show the people that he knows how to
keep hotel" Charley Britton is engaged
on his new mill. He is already grinding,
and makes an excellent quality of fl rur.
The new school house is enclosed. 1t is
built of white limestone, and is really
beautiful structure. Cottonwood Falls
has the kind of men, and is surrounded
with the kind Of county to make a good
town, and We doubt not that few years
will see it one of the most furnishing CITE

COUNCIL GRovE We have heretofore
made mention, in these columns, of the
fact that Council Grove is building a
school house costing $1,000. We
mention the fact again, believing that it
cannot be mentioned too often. But We
desire to call especial attention to the fact
that the Council Grove people are not
building after the manner of the Phari-
sees-sll fair outside and inside nothing
but dead mems bones. The magni6-
cence ma infested in erecting an elegant
and costly structure, is to be more than
matched by the provisions for its proper
use. The Board of Education have su-
thorized Prof. Kellogg, of the State Nor
NAL school, to supply them competent
School Principal. to be paid salary OF
ST 300 Der annum, and have themselves
rendered to one of the recent graduates of
the State Normal School the position of
Assistant Principal, at a salary OF $500.
Thoroughly competent teachers will also
be employed for each grade.
Council Grove has set noble example,
which might we'll be followed by other
communities in the State, of more prelen-
sions.

From the Kansas State Journal, Nay 80, 1861
Lawrence promises also to become the med
icine mandatory and drug emporium of the
State. Already the medicines Of ". Wood
ward, which have obtained meritoriously such
great local celebrity, are being ordered by the
gross from druggists in st. Louis, Chicago,
New Y rk and other Eastern towns. Collins
Bros and other Wholesale Druggists of st.
Louis, have lately ordered q large supply Of
WoOdward's celebrated Blackberry Syrup.
This medicine is becoming agreat favOrite in
the West, and only needs to be introduced to
become general favorite with the public. B.
W. Woodward also compounds the celebrated
Elixir Calisaya Bark and Iron. This medi.
cine is highly recommended by the best phys
iciaus of our city and the country gene rally.
ItS merits are pretty generally known, and
purchasers will be glad to learn tina Mr.. Wood
ward compounds and prepares it with special
care, and really makes a more desirable article
than can be found elsewhere.
