We love to stretch beneath the shade, but
prefer the shadows Of the maple, the oak, or
even the cottonwood, to the drooping sun
flowers which over-arch the sidewalks at our
end Of the Avenue. A town that will allow
the weeds to flourish so undfsturbed, will soon
establish . poor reputation suoAg visitors.
The money spent for the printing Of one non
sensical ordinance would pay the expense Of
cutting down al this useles heritage about
the city, and pasase much more those who fed
the burdens ofheavy taxation.

LINCOLN CENTER ITEMs.-LincOlnc Ou nty has
been blessed with frequent showers the past
| week, which will mature the corn crop beyond
doubt.
The advantages that Lincoln county holds
over some other localities that have been re
! ceiving large colonies of immigrants, have
never been properly brought before the public
Her valleys are numerous, and consist in par
as follows: the Saline river, the principal
stream in the county; Twelve Mile creek, Rel
Rock. Elkhorn, Beaver, Bull Foot. Yauger
Lost, Spillman, Twin Groves, Wolf, Coon ant
Spring creeks; u ef which flow into the Saline.
Salt creek, and its tributaries, flow into the Sol
onion river. These streams are all lined with
plenty of good oak, W alnut. blackberry, elm
and cottonwood tim Der. and broad valleys with
soil in exhaustible. The surrounding bluff;
furnish the lasgest quantities Of the finest mag
nesian limestone in the state. Stone Goa
crop-out in several places in the county, and
has already been prom ounced Of the best quail
ty by our smiths. The valleys and bluff lands
of this county are particularly adapted to the
raising and pasturing Of stock, and are thickly
covered with blue grass, which fnrn ishes Fall
Winter and Spring range. The bluffs furnish
the best Summer range for stock In the world.
When one takes into consideration the variety
Of grasses that grows there Is also the brooks
and branches fed by the best Of living springs,
he is forced to the conclusion that ranges Of
this kind are far more preferable than the tame
pastures Of the East. A glance At the map will
convince any intelligent mind at once that Lin
coin Center is located ut the most central point
to accomcdate this valley that could have been
selected In the county, and Is just thirty-nine
miles from the city Of Salina BY the state road
measurement. We have been creditably in

acres of sod broke in the county chs Aason.

Probably when Salina has suffered $4,000
fire the people will begin to think about pro-
viding themselves with an engine. Indeed this
would be fine speculation! A considerable
amount of the money necessary to purchase an
engine could be realized hom licensing the diff.
ferent business houses and manufactures. We
have no doubt that thu business men would not
object in the least to paying five or ten dollars
each in this way fer such purpose.

We went to the circus. So did lots of other
church members. Our devil was there too, he
sides several other devils, too numerous to
mention. Everybody was there, except one or
two. and they ought to have been there. \
circus draws bigger mass of beings than a
fourth of July celebration, Henry Ward Beech

the stately and dignified enter the arena, and
with hats slouchcd over their eyes, peer with
furtve giances to see if any there be :. who will
tell on EN-" They blush, (perhaps for the
first time in their life) and look slleepish! But

Of Tartary. while her delicate and sensitive -
form was hurled through space quicker than
mule can kick. Mazeppa was powerfully :"
acted. We searched for handkerchief to wipe
away the fast-hOwins tears, but as We had none,
We wiped on our coat sleeve. Menken, you

himself into numberless shapes until we could

low himself, which feat he can easily perform
after a little more exercise. The balloon as
censi n was not the greatest success in the
world. The balloon assembled but Prof. Miles
didn't. and thus was our special artist deprived
of a visit to the stars. The +" parachute must
have been indisposed, for the balloon seemed to
shoot off before there was a good ready. The
" ship of air" turned a complete somersault
after going up few feet, and caught fire.
The fire was speedily distinguished; so was the
balloon. There were the usual Number OF side

troupe, at this distant date. are. that lots Of
hard earned dollars have been suddenly taken
