Paul Raymond and his wife live near them,

had enjoyed, and the fact that he was in full
possession of home and several hands un-
incumbered with debt, caused him to be re-
garded as young man of some Importance.
At that time he was thought to be young
man without any bad habits. With fair
name, and, withal good address, he gained
admittance into the first families in the neigh
borhood. Finally he married the daughter
of Colonel Morgan. The Colonel was, it was
whispered, not altogether satisfied with the
match, but the neighbors generally thought
that be was doing very well in getting Vince
Black for son.in.lsw. ... ........ ~. (
"Not long after the marriage of Vince Black
and Colonel Morgan's daughter, it became q
matter of common talk in the neighborhood
that Vince Black had gone to gambling. He
was often away from home. Sometimes he
would be gone for several weeks, and on one
occasion he was absent from home for two
months. No one, not even his wife, knew
anything about him. Thus things continued
for period of four years. His wife never
complained, but it was evident to ell that she
was dying by inches. Finally, Vince left and
never did return. His wife still remained on
the place, but it had passed eutof Yince's
possession into that of Colonel Morgan. Sa.E
"Where Vince went, or ;what5he Ess doing,

hand, and briefly told her the whole story.
The young girl listened as if petri6ed. At
first she could not comprehend the reality of
what she heard, and her dark eyes turned ap-
pealingly, from one to the other of the faces
around her, resting at last, with a wstful gaze
on that of the new-found father, from whom
she had been so many years parted that her
childish memories of him had long since ia
ded into indistinctness, and his image had be-
come but shadow to her mind. But when
Manuel, drawing her close to him, poured out
in broken words his JOY at finding her, and
pleaded with her for her confidence and love,
the conviction of the truth seemed to dawn
upon her, and faltering out bis name, she re.
turned his embrace with tears. The obscure
orphan, dependent on the bounty of friends,
was now transformed into descendent of the
nobility of country which prides itself upon
the "blue blood flowing in the veins of it's
aristocratic sons, and the heiress of an almost
princely fortune; but it was long ere she
could fully comprehend the total change of
her position. Her first thoughts, indeed, were
those of sorrow at the idea of parting from her
beloved Senora; but when relieved on this
point, by the information that it was her faith
er's intention to establish himself in her
adopted country, as his own was invested with
too many painful associations to make his re-
turn to it desirable, she could yield her mind
more freely to the consideration of all that
was before her, and to fuller appreciation of
her good fortune. ...

AMONG the many localities in Kansas
which offer peculiar advantages to the
Home-Seeker, Allen County, as regards
Location, Soil, Water, Timber, Cheap
Land, Convenience to Market, Facilities
for transportation, Towns, Settlements
and Society, stands second to 90 other in
the State, as brief reference to the above

LOCATION.
This county is second from the East
and third from the South line of the
State. 1t is one hundred miles south
east from Topeka, seventy-fve miles
south from Lawrence, one hundred south
west of Kansas City and twenty i've
miles west from Fl. Scott and lies mainly
within the celebrated NeOsho valley.

The soil of the uplands is a black or
dark red calcareOus loan of great depth
and inexhaustable fertility, while that
of the bottoms is the black alluvial de.
posts usually found in such localities,
and varying from four to ten feet in
depth. No better soils for the successful
production of all the grains, grasses,
fruits and vegetables of this latitude can
Ue found in the State.
