That minister who took for his text some
thing about the Mason e. Hamln and Estey
organs was Immediately churched by his con-
gregation, for each of them declared their
preference for the Burdett Organ. Upon ex-
animation it was found that two-thirds of them
had already purchased the Burdett of II. Hall,
agent at Salina.
We have plenty of ice for our own use, and
expect to supply the city with ice cream dur
ing the entire season. Call at our place and

And now comes colored lad from Salina
who deposes and says, that on or about the
9Th OF July, 1876, certain young men OF ABB
lene, visited SalIDa, and that they promised
him twenty-five cents each to show them
around to the hotels(:)' and that as yet he has
failed to receive his money, and prays that
these young men shall settle these little debts
of honor. Further the deponeth sayeth not
Abilene Chronicle.
The coloredf lad was our distinguished
George Washington-alias Ephraim. 1t is
wrong that one of our first citizens should
thus be imposed upon by Abilene's inquisitive
young men. Probably the courts will have to
determine the matter.

We notice that the managers of the Salina
fair have fixed the time for holding their fair
the same time rs has been fixed for the Dick
inson county fair-due notice OF which was
made several weeks ago. Last year the same
thing was done, and after consultation with
some OF the officers of the Salina Association
our fair was postponed. OF course there are
not very many who would want 10 attend both
fairs and il makes no great difference il both
fairs come on the same DAYS: bat rs we post
poned our fair last year, il would have looked
little more neighborly 20 have fixed upon
some other time for holding their fair this
ycar.-Abiie'IS CsroHieie.
Friend Hart will take notice that the time
for holding Our Salina fair has been changed
to the 18th. 18th, 18th, 18th and 2Oth days Of
October; so there will be no conflict either
with the Dickinson o. Ottawa county fairs
We hope to see many Dickinson county peo-
I pie present at our fair, and can truly say that
many Saline county people Will attend the

dor ut st. Petersburg, in which the former
declared in tho most earnes. and

Lord LoFTus to tho Homo Government,
together with the special desire Of the Ozar
that it should bo published in ordor to allay
the causolcss disquiotude prevalent in Eli
