rhree Cheese Factor,..

Mr.. Langstaff has not arranged to take
charge of cheese factory which Mr.. Ma
son is said to be building on Badger creek
seven miles north of this city. We are
informed that Mr.. Langstaff's plan in
cludes three medium sized factories-the
one which Mr.. Young promises to ereei,
one in EmpOrIa, and one about six miles
south of the city, and to have his son take
charge of the first, himself of the second,
and skillful cheese maker who has been
In his employ take charge of the third.
This would not require the farmers to
haul their milk very far, as each factory
would be in the center of its own grazing
section. MIR. Langstaff is also desirous of
having his family live in Emporia and of
living with it. His son is skilltul cheese
maker. This plan, if carried out, would
put the cheese making business on a very
good footing here, and we hope that it
will be done, and are assured that it will
be If the farmers will furnish the cows.

HIRING HoRsEs.-On the 18th, two
young fellows hired a couple of saddle
horses at Kress' livery stable, Parkerville,
Morris county, to 90 to Council Grove.
Arriving there, they sent postal card to
Kress, saving they had to keep on to EN-
poris, but not to be uneasy about the
horses. which they would return all right
and pay for. He did get uneasy, on re-
ceipt of this, however, and went to Coun-
Gil Grove, and sending man from there
to Cottonwood Falls, came himself to EN-
poria, and finding no trace here of the
horses applied to Sheriff Conner for assist
ance. A few days after the Sheriff re-
ceived letter from MIR. Shaft, on Silver
creek, Chase county, saying he had
found two horses tied in the woods there,
and the Sheriff went to Silver creek,
found they were Kress' horses, and re-
turned them to him. The pretended hog
buyers had kept on west, and it was not
thought worth while to trace them up.

Among the advertisements of to-day's
issue will be found one from Mr.. Emil
Bnreutzen, photographer Of St, Thomas, to
which we would beg to refer the readers
of the Avis. 1t will be seen from it, that
he will prolong his stay in this island for
a couple weeks, having been induced to
do so by the approval which his pictures
have met with. There will thus be
" another chance, " of which many will
no doubt avail themselves, as, from all we
can learn on the subject, the pictures
taken by Mr.. B@rentzsn have given general
satisfaction, from which it may safely be
concluded, we take it, that a visit to his
gallery would repay even those who are pre-
JUDGED against seeing their own image,
as they may have less objection to inspect
those of others, when we'll made.
