THE NEW BAPTIST CHAPEL.-This build
ing is now finished and will be dedicated to
the worship of God by appropriate ceremo-
mics next Sunday morning. The house is 26X
80 feet, with a Vestibule in front, Sx1O. The
audience room has an octagonal ceiling, which
in the center is twenty feet from the floor. 1t
is painted very neatly and smoothly plastered.
The windows, four on each side, are of the
gothic style, and the glass beautifully ''frost-
ed" 1t is furnished with three tiers Of iron
frame benches, manufactured by j. b. Mer-
win, Of st. Louis, every alternate seat being a
"patent reversible'' one, which is n most eX-
eellent arrangement for Sunday school pur-
poses. The seats are neat and comfortable,
and will accommodate $50 persons, allowing
five to the bench. The pulpit is merely a
small square desk, not any larger than is nee
essary for a large Bible, and in this is in keep

We are glad to know that it is all paid for
or nearly so, and we congratulate the society
and the efficient pastor, TO whose executive
| ability the church is largely indebted for its
success, in getting so pleasant place in which
to hold their religious meetings. There is no
a denomination in the city which has demon
strated more zeal and executive ability thar
has this congregation since the services Of
live pastor, in the person Of Rev. A. N. Aver

demonstrated this not only in building thi

most successful pecuniarily ever made in tn

The Emporia news. [volume] (Emporia, Kan.) 1859-1881, 1871-02-03

We sometimes think our business men
would do well to enlarge their trade in coun-
try produce. Our farmers now take great
deal of their marketing to Emporia, instead of
finding a market at their own doors. And the
man that buys what they have to sell will sell
them what they have to buy, as general rule.
Now our merchants can afford to sell goods
just as cheap as those at Emporia and can af-
ford to pay within very small per cent of as
much for marketing as Emporia. In view OF
these facts we fail to see the good reason for
the present practice of farmers taking a day or
two almost every week to haul their produce
away ten miles to market, when there might
be good a market in their own vicinity.
Economy is the first law of trade, and as we
look at things, there is great waste of time in
this custom as well as needless labor and eX-
pense, wear and tear of teams, and personal
exposure. II our merchants should not make
anything on the marketing, they would have
enough additional profits on increased sales to
pay for their increase of trouble and risk. The
present custom is good for Emporia but bad
| for Americas. We bear no grudge toward the
former, but we speak now in the interest o.
| the latter.

.The Reason WHY"

We regret to say that Mrs. L.yermore did
not have a large audience at Bancroft Hall
Monday eYen'g. The weather was stormy, and
the fact that j. A. Lori just closed a weeks
engagement, may account in part for the mea-
gerness of the house, but another cause for II
may be attributable to the unpopularity OF
the woman suffrage movement in this locality.
To those who stayed away because they fe II
no interest in the subject Of the lecture, we
can only say that they would have been just
rs we'll entertained IL they had been present
were those who agreed in sentiment with
the speaker. 1t is pronounced by all who
heard it the very best lecture of the season.
Mrs. L. is a woman Of commanding pres
ence, possesses a round physical development,
dresses plain, wears little or no jewelry, has q
pleasant physiognomy and II well-formed
head, speaks without notes, deliberately, flu
emily and distinctly, uses the very choicest
language and never hesitates for want of the
proper word. She is free from all affectation,
and did not move a foo. during the two hours
and a quarter devoted to her last nights lee
ture. Her entire lecture was brilliant pro-
duction, and sparkled with gems Of thought,
from the beginning to the end. Every audit
or left the Hall feeling that her 'Reason
Why" had been most elequently discussed,
If not persuaded to espouse her cause. 1t
was better than a whole week of theatrical
performances.

Missouri valley Lie Insurance Company
We would call the earnest attention OF our
readers to the advertisement of this giant
young Company OF Kansas, and TO the rapid
" with which she has risen and taken her
place among the older institutions Of the same
kind in the United States. Her originators
are all Western men, and her affairs are all
under the control Of Western men (mOstly the
capitalists and prominent business men of
Kansas) whose financial ability and position
affords guarantee OF the Company's future
success. The risks of this institution are Ia
ken not only with the greatest care, but in E
part of the United States where the rate OF
mortality Is lower than most any other part OF
the world. This combined with the very high
rate of interest obtained ON loans made in the
West necessarially make the accumulation OF
dividends to policy holders far greater than in
any Eastern Company. TO those wishing to
purchase insurance ut the least cost, we say
insure in the Missouri Valley Life Insurance
Company.
The officers Of this Company, II. d. Macay,
President, and Geo. y. Moore, Secretary, are
so well known for their integrity and fine bu.
siness capacity that It will be superfiuous for
us to add To their already well earned reputa.

DEATH OF j. l.. CATTERsoN.-A letter from
Danville, California, dated January ODD, brings
information OF the death, on that day, of our
former fellow-citizan, j. L. Catterson. Mr..
Catterson was one OF the early settlers here,
and was for long time engaged in different
branches of business. We believe he was the
first practical timer In the town. He was ac-
tive in the organization of several temperance
societies, and the people now should revere
his memory for his efforts 10 thus early mould
the temperance sentiment OF our town, which
has ever since been one of our characteristics
as n people. Mr.. Catterson was an earnest
and upright member of the Masonic fraterni-
ty, and we believe assisted in organizing the
first lodge here; at least, he helped the order
in every way in his power, in its early strug-
giles, and we are glad to see that his brethren
in the golden State did not forget him. He
was buried at Danville with Masonic honors.
and his health, which had always before been
very rugged. rapidly declined. His indomit-
able energy and Will kept the disease at bay
for long months. When many of US were
looking for Catterson to die, from day to day,
he would suddenly appear upon our streets
and even go to work in his store. He was f.
nally induced to try California to see If his
health could not be improved and finally re-
stored in that genial climate. He went there
improved in health. But the disease was toe
deep-rooted, and death has at last claimed its
victim. He was about 80 years Of age.
