SoCIABLE.-The sociable at the new
church Tuesday evening was n still
greater success than any of the pre-
ceding ones. The house being finish
ed except the seating, gave the parti-
cipants il very comfortable room, and
the liberal free lunch of three kinds OF
cake and Ice cream made every body
happy. The voting for the handsomest
lady and also for the prettiest baby
caused industrious canvassing, and
some of the candidates ran close to-
gether. Mrs. William Carl had pre-
scented a very nice bed quilt to be vot-
ed to the handsomest baby, and. it fell
to the little son of Geo. L. Beard.
Mrs. Rebecca Tressler carried off the

Grant and Horace Greeley were per-
sonified by Miss Emma Wood and Miss
Eta Frost. A spirited election result
ed in majority of So for Gen. Grant.

p. T. BARNUN's WORLDS FAR
On the 10th day of August the great
est show on earth will pitch its acres
of canvas IN Topeka, giving their
grand, full and complete exhibitions OF
the entire seven shows for the simple
sum of fifty cents-ehildren half price
morning, afternoon and evening.
p. 7. Barnum's great show travels by
rail, requiring three and sometimes
four trains of about forty cars each,
with from two to four engines to each
train, In order to transport it rapidly
from one city or large town to anoth-
er. 1t Is so large and diversified In its
multitude OF appointments that six
separate payiliOns are used for the var
ious departments Of the exposition.
Barnum cannot afford to stop his big
show in small towns. Only think of q
show requiring = thousand men and
horses to manage it, and containing
over q hundred thousand curiosities,
500 animals, birds, reptiles and marine
monsters, a double set OF performers, .
double circus ring, with one hundred
of the best performers In the country,
a vast group Of sea lions, wild Fiji
cannibals, horse-riding goats, living
giraffes, mammoth giants, pOndsrous
reptiles, living. human wonders, as
founding dwarEs, four times smaller
than the famous Tom Thumb-all
these to be seen for the sum OF ffty
cents. It is no wonder if people viii
go hundred miles to. see 1t. Extra
trains viii run at reduced fares to carry
the people to Barnum's great Worlds
Fair on the day above mentioned.

Shade is unpleasant. Sunshine is
uncomfortable. s-
Farmers are thrashing their grain,
which is turning out well.
The Grant and Wilson ratification
meeting was well attended on We'd
nesday evening of last week, consid-
ering the busy time of year. Mr..
Stewart, J. p. PInkertOn and E. B.
Peyton were the speakers, and ali did
we'll. Especially do we hear the
speech OF Judge Peyton well spoken
of. We have heard the Judge speak
at different times, on different sub
jects, and acknowledge we had no just
conception of the eloquence and ora
tOrical skill which.the Judge possesses.
A club was organized consisting of
thirty of our best citizens, which has
since been increased to forty, and
probably before the issue of the News
this week it will number fifty.
Esq. James jackson made a politi-
cal speech at this place on last Satur-
day evening, charging some of the
county officers with political corrup-
ton. He claims that taxes have been
collected Illegally, and costs on suits
charged which are contrary to law.
We know nothing particularly about
the things of which he speaks, yet it
has become a-notorious fact that every
county treasurer of Lyon county, since
its organization, have gone into Office
poor and came out wholesale bankers.
We had the pleasure this week of
visiting the Plymouth nursery of L.
NJ. Harris, and were much pleased with
what we saw. Long rows of almost
endless varieties of apple trees, two
and three years old, stretched across
the field, giving it picturesque and
beautiful appearance. Hedge plants
enough to fence the State, and all
kinds of fruit, shade and ornamental
trees, shrubbery, grape vines, flowers,
and indeed all things kept in a good
nursery, grow in such endless profus-
ion that it is impossible to name them.
But the most pleasant place to Us, and
we might add the principal object OF
our VISIT was among the blackberries.
The briars were literally loaded with
the black, delicious fruit. They are
of the Missouri Mammouth, Kittatiny
and Lawton varieties. AS we replen-
ished the inner man with the luscious
| fruit, we wondered why every man
who has a gardea does not enjoy this
luxury. Mr.. Harris sells trees as low
as any other nursery In the State, and
we hope all will give him a call before
buying their stock. LoAFER.

LION COUNTY FARMING.-Saturday
a. G. White made US happy with a
basket of splendid tomatoes and plums.
The tomatoes were very large and fine,
and of two kinds, the largest almost
surprising the celebrated Trophy.
Mr.. w. says 1t is Cookies Favorite."
The other was the Early Smooth Red.
The plums were mediHm size, cling
stone, and delicious flavor. They are
named the 'Virginia Blue Damson."
One small twig had nine of these nice
chaps on It. We advise our fruit
growers to go in at once for trees Of
this variety. Kansas grows plums-
sure.
Mr.. White also lett us sample of
his spring wheat, just harvested. The
wheat Is No. 1, and handsomely ripen-
ed. 1t is the "White English Club"
was sowed February "a, 81 bushels to
325 acres, and the yield, machine
measure of Go lbs. to bushel, was 1915
bushels, or % bushels per acre. By
regular weight the yield was 25 BUSH
els per acre. That will do pretty we'll
for Kansas spring wheat this year.
Mr.. white is one of our farmers and
fruit growers who believe that Kansas
beats the world, and busy themselves
in cultivating the ground in such a
way as to produce the evidences of
their faith. Our eastern farmer read
ers had best come out here and do like
wise. The soil is here, and can be
bought at figures that any one can
meet.

EDITOR EMPoRIA NEWS: The Com
mOnweaith, of Topeka, last week SEEM
ed to be very jubilant over the defeat
of the Jayhawker. base ball elnb of
Emporia. Yea, exceeding glad. "Jay-
hawkers defeated by country nine
from Parkerville!" All we have to
say for the Parkeryille club is that it
is composed of gentlemen, and need
not fear playing the "Westerns" of
Topeka. We wish the Topekaites to
understand the Jayhawkers are not
nor never have been beaten. The
game won by the P;lrkervillc club was
against "Serub'' nine, and not the
Jayhawker base ball club, they not
having one days practice. Topeka
has not the club that can ever win
back the honors they lost here last
year, or why did they refuse to play
the return game when we went there
to play them during Fair week? For
the benefit of the rejoicing Topekaites
we will inform them that the Jayhaw-
ker base ball club, of Emporia, dis
banded last year, and as more than half
OF the members left, We have never re-
organized. But there are enough of
them left to keep Topeka in the rear as
base ballists. j. II.
