Mr.. Editor, / wish to say a word
through your columns, as TO the running
of the trains July Sd. 1t was our inten-
tiOn as published, to start train from
Emp0ria 10 the grounds at 10 O'Clock. but
found the railroad company could not fur
nish coaches, until the train came in from
Topeka, which was due at the depot at
IL a. m, and would then take all down at
one run; but the multitude Of people and
the number of ears to accommodate them
delayed the train from one to two hours,
which was una yoidabIe either by us or
the abroad company. We hope that no
one will take exceptions to unavoidable
circumstances, and especially towards the
railroad company, as they exerted them.
selves and made every endeaVOr to make
things go of smoothly and satisfactory
Consequently the regular programme had
to be dispensed with. With many thanks
for the indulgence and patience of the
people, 1 hope such another disaPpoint-
ment may never occur.

our French Cousins.

The congregation of the Catholic church
in this city have been treated to series
of unusually pleasant musical entertain
ments during the 4th of July season just
past, given by NJ. Moutonnier and his
family, consisting of Madame MoutOnnier
and Miles Laura and Mary, aged four
teen and sixteen respectively, and Master
Paul, aged seventeen.
They left their home in Paris, France,
about three months ago, and are now q
part of the granger element of Marion
county, living on raw piece of railroad
land near Florence, where they were
promised by the truthful and accredited
emigrant agent Gland shark they should
live in q rural retreat in the suburbs of q
beautiful little city, with ''Its elegant
Catholic cathedral, and wealthy and re-
fined population, principally from sunny
France"
The musical requirements of this fami-
Iy would distinguish them in any coun-
try. The performances of Madame N.
are little less than wonderful, and each of
her daughters give fair promise of becom-
ing Il prinld donna. The enthusiasm of the
audience while listening to the Duets of
the young ladies upon-the piano, was IN
bounded. Although perfectly at home
with the piano, the fayOrite instrument
OF the gentlemen is the violin, which in
the hands of either of them fairly articu-
lates eloquent music. Every perform
ance was thoroughly scientific. New
pieces were laid before them by the au-
dience, and performed at first sight per-
fectly in point of harmony, time, express
sion and superb execution. The troupe
are all good Vocalists, and honoring the
day, they rendered our "Hail Columbia
only less gloriously than their own grand
| '.Marseilles."
Madame Moutonnier acquired our lam
guage years ago merely as Il literary ac-
cOmplishment, as she did the Italian and
German, little thinking it would become
to her q first necessity. Under her tutil-
age Paul and ''the girls" are progressing
finely in re English.
We were pleased to learn FROM them
that they are thinking of making their
home in Emporia, that the young folks
may have the advantage of our Normal
School in completing their education; and
we assured them that our people would
greet their first concert at Bancroft Hall
with good audience.

POST OFFICE BOX RENT.
Particular Notice.

All boxes not paid for by the 10th of
the first M onth of each quarter, to-wit:
January, April, July and October, will
be promptly vacated and the mail belong
ing to them placed in the general delivery.
The law requires that before box can be
assigned to an individual the rent must
be paid in Advance. A strict account Of
the boxes rented must be kept and sworn
to ut the end of each quarter. If 100 are
rented and only 80 paid for the pOstmast-
er must pay for the other fifty in his
quarterly settlement with Uncle Sam, or
commit perjury. There is no lodging
this point. 1t is not at all profitable for q
postmaster to pay $40 quarter for box
rents out of his own pocket. We have
deliberately concluded not TO do it any
more. 1t makes us ''squeal." 1t frequent
ly occurs that p eople take the notices out
ofthe boxes, lay them aside and then for
get the matter. They must pay hereafter
in the time specified, and take q receipt,
or have their boxes vacated. This notice
is not for parties who pay their rents
promptly, but for those no do not. On
account of this notice not having been
given sooner, boxes for the present quar-
ter will not be vacated till the goth of
July. j. SToTLER, p. NJ.

BAD RUNAwAY-TWO HORSES INJUR-
ED.-Last Friday afternoon Mr.. Franz
took ThOs. Flemlng's dray and drove to
Van r. Holmes new residence, to get
some article that he wanted, and left the
horses unhitched until he went into the
house. Though considered quite safe,
they started, and were soon en- route for
the center of the city, at fearful rate.
Commercial street was crowded with
wagons, and the runaway dray thunder
ed down from seventh avenue at a ter
rifle rate. Between 9Th and 9th avenues,
on Commercial street, the dray pole struck
. sadd lie horse in the ribs just in front Of
the right thigh, damned hole in him six
or eight inches deep and knocked him
some ID feet. The dray then demolished
a wagon wheel, and flying around back
OF the east side stores, the pole struck =
mare tied to q wagon, in the right hip,
lamming q terrible hole there as 1t did in
the horses ribs. The runaway team was
then caught. No damage to that team or
the drag to speak of. The injured horse
belonged to John Collins, stranger
travelling for work, and the mare to c. II.
Pratt, of Jackson township. Both ami
mails were led TO the Central Stables, their
wounds sewed up, and drenched with
