Go EAST BY WAY EFF ST. LoUIs.-In
these days of railroad competition the
wise traveller selects his route before
leaving home. In almost every in
stance he desires to reach his destina-
ton as speedily as possible, and for the
accomplishment of that purpose the
Missouri Pacific Through Line from
the West to the East, via Kansas City
and st. Louis, offers inducements I'M
surpassed by any other line in the
country. Everything connected with
the Missouri Pacific r. Z. is flrst-class,
and the adoption of the Miller Plat
form and the Westinghouse Air Brake,
together with its Pullman Sleepers,
and Reclining Chair Coaches, render a
trip over the line perfectly safe and
pleasant. Passengers from all partso
the West by taking its express trains
at Kansas City, Leavenworth, Atchisen
and other prominent cities, are landed
in st. Louis at seasonable hours morn
ing and evening, and in ample time to
make direct connection with all
railroads for every point in the
North, East and South. Partic-
ular information, with maps, time
tables, &C., may be had at the
various ''through ticket railroad sta
tions in the West, or upon personal or
written application to G. II. Baxter.

J.R,D butcher, one of the first conduc-
tors on the Neosho division OF the NJ.
X. 6 T., is back at his old post again
after a long tarry on another part of
the road.
Abous five per cent, OF the inhabit-
ants of this township are grangers,
which is doubtless far above the aver
age throughout the State. So it may
be some time yet before that tail will
waggle the dog.
DIR. Wright, having come down to
grange prices on kerosene oil, found it
necessary last week TO order n number
of barrels of that article at one time.
1t came and was left out In front of
the store until after dark, when a per-
son who was passing heard the oil rum
ming out. An investigation dIYulged
the fact that some miscreant had bored
three gimlet holes in one of the casks.
Whether this act was for the purpose
of firing the building, or simply a'lit-
tie joker on the middle men, is still
unsolved.
1t seems we were mistaken last week
in regard to the grange store in Amer
icus. We had heard the individual
spoken of say he was going to trade
his farm for store, but 1t appears that
the grangers have demonstrated so
conclusively that there is no money in
farming that the merchants don't want
any of that Sin theirs" And besides
this they think the grangers will bring
down the prices of farms u good deal
yet.
There was more hay put up in this
vicinity last fall than ever before, and
people thought it would be cheap this
spring. Now, however, the article is
very scarce, and there is beginning to
be considerable alarm lest there
should be too little tor the require
ments of the country.
Farmers are good deal dishearten-
ed over the prospects of their fall
wheat. The weather lately has injur-
ed as many suppose; irreparably.
There has been less sickness in
Americas this winter than any former
winter for number of years.
Contrary to the general opinion, the
Americas merchants say they are do
ing better business now than ever
before. They have put goods down to
the lowest prices and sell almost en-
tirely for cash and are happy at the
results.
The Americas cheese factory made
about 10000 pounds of cheese last
year. .Latt
A committee of grangers has visited
the Americas Touring mills and made
satisfactory arrangements with the
mIllers for Touring their wheat. Sem
sible.
A gentleman from Lawrence-Mr.
CarmIchael-was in town last week, to
inquire into the situation of the cheese
factory. If it were TO run the coming
season, he desired to move here and
bring his COWS where he could dispose
of their milk. We think he will come.
That's what the cheese factory is doing
| for Americas.
a protracted meeting began in the
NJ. E. church at Americas on Saturday
last and continues yet under favorable
auspices. Rev. w. w. Baily, the pas
tor, is at present unassisred in the
meeting.

The Wichita Eagle thinks the winter
has slipped away. GIVE us rest.
The political pot over the Wichita
spring election has commenced to SIM
mer.
a little child met with an accident
in Wichita last Saturday which resulted
in its death. 1t seems that the mother
of it was preparing to mop the floor,
and had heated water for that purpose.
She removed the scalding hot water
from the stove, pouring it into tub or
vessel setting on the floor, and turned
to put the lids on the stove. While
she was thus engaged her two little
children were playing near by, and it
is supposed thas one of them pushed
the other in such a manner as to cause
it to step backwards against the tub,
losing its balance and falling inro the
tub of water, which scalded it so badly
that it died in few hours.
A man arrived in Wichita last week
who had walked from Topeka. He
had been stopping at that place few
days and heard SO much about railroad
monopoiies, reform movements, etc.,
that he too became imbued with the
spirit OF reform, and commenced fig
uring hew to curtail expenses, and he
arrived at the conclusion that he could
save one dollar and eighty cents per
day by Iooting it.
The Wichita freight depot is filled to
overlooking, and about 150,OO pounds
have been standing on the side track
in cars, Notwithstanding the hard
times. About 100000 pounds of the
freight is destined for the Indian Ter
ritory.
Considerable petty thievisg is being
carried on in Wichita.
1t requires an OK team, one horse
