The classical concert, given as the 9th
entertainment in our lecture course on
Tuesday evening Feb. Gath, by the st Adams
Musical Association was most eminentlv
successful in all respects and reflected great
credit on all the performers and on their
popular and competent teacher, Mr. T. p

In mention of the performance we do not

space, but we may he allowed to saw of
those whose parts were most prominent
that they all did themselves highest cred

Mrs. Ellsworth was in fine voice, and
charmed her audience most thoroughly.
We have on previous occasions spoken of
her high musical attanments and need only
say that she improves daily. Her voice.
sweet, powerful and highly cultivated held
the audience spell bound until she stopped
and then the applause grew into hearty
encore An elegant boquct was laid at her

rest expressed their approval in a way that

finest it has been our pleasure to hear. be-
ing in a remarkable degree, pure, sweet
and true. She is dcservedly great favor
lite among music lovers of st. Adams and
always sure of warm a welcome at their
hands.
Misses Kellogg and butcher sung charm
ingly and added new laurels to the chaplcts
they are weaving for themselves and the
association.

Mr. Phillips welded the baton with grace

was somewhat lacking in variety, and this

The Arkansas Valley Ahead.

The land department of the A. T. & S

tiveness of the Arkansas river valley.
The first is sample ofcotton, product o.
1874, raised in Sedgwick county, neal
Sedgwick City, on the line of the A. T

and very fine in quality. IF any state
can beat Kansas in raising cotton, she
will have to get up awful early in the
morning and go to work without any
breakfast. 1,l ts ra.5---a. -----
The second is sample Of Egyptian
wheat, product of 1874, from Raymond
Rice county, Kansas. q. r7i .
The next is specimen of fall wheat
well filled and riponed, also from Rice
county and the product of this season.
All these specimens give evidence o.
the unsurpassed fertility Of Kansas soil
especially that portion of it dying and
being situated" along the line Of the above
road. Judging from the samples furnish.
ed us, it is no wonder that the tide of i'm
migration is still settling strong to the
Arkansas valley. The AT. & S. 7. trains
each day are full of people looking fol
homes. and nowhere in the boundless west
are greater inducements offered than ir

the east pours out its load of settlers fol
