NEW STORE.
The Finest Stock of Ladies' and
Gents Furnishing Goods Ever
Brought to the City.

In accordance with previous announce
new store last Tuesday aud commenced
selling his new and attractive goods.
Since opening out he has had swarms of
callers and customers, and everybody
admits his stock 10 be the most com plete
and of . superior quality to any such line of
goods ever brought TO thus city. The
general impression is that Jimmie has
strnck lead, aud that he anticipated
the wishes of the pubic when he pur-
chased his stock. He is succeeding much
better than he expected. a. the demand
for such goods as he keeps is much more
extensive than lie imagined. He invites
everybody desiring goods in his line 10
call and examine his stock.

Christmas Tree.

The children on Christmas day will be
kindly remembered. A Christmas tree
will be prepared. and the young hearts
will be made glad with rich and toothsome
presents. The citizens who contemplate
this Christmas fes,iyity. should have an
early meeting, and decide upon plan OF
action, thus affording a rich treat never
before offered in Dodge City. The asperi-
ties of frontier life can be softened by
these kind and social gatherings, which
lend happy contrast to the conflict and
hum of trade during the year past.
1t is hoped committee of arrangements
will be appointed. and every effort made
TO make the Christmas gathering one of
unusual sociability and happiness.

A New Law Firm.

The Junction City Onion of recent
date contained a complimentary notice Of
the law firm Of johnson & Davis, Topeka.
We asree with that paper in its praise.
Gen. johnson was for several years Dist
rlct Attorney Of the district in which We
resided IN Missouri. and for two yea1s At
tOrnev General of the Stare. He stood
foremost IN the bar of that Stale. We
have had over twelve wears acquaintance
with Gen. johnson. He is a scholar, q
lawyer, and gentleman in every sense
that term implies. Gen. Davis was form
eriy District Attorney in Kentucky. and
at the lime of his election to sno Office of
Attorney General of Kansas. was county
attorney OF IaOette county. These gen
tlemeu have our well wishes. and no full
some praise is necessary in commanding
shem to those who may intrust their busi-
ness with them.

eral activity prevailing. and the officers
and all the mility in q more cheerful state
of mind than at any time during the last

Eleven railroad men, confined In the Bel

terfering with railroad travel. hailed with de-
light the approach OF last Monday the appoint

nothing to live upon but their wages and their
long incarceration in Jail has been felt severely
by their families. All were prepared for trial !:
Attorney announced that the State was not
ready for trial, and that the cases Of the strik-
ers must be adjourned until the January term
This was done, and the prisoners were sent
back To tho jail for another three months OF
waiting. A few fortunate ones obtained bonds
men in $500 but three Of the strikers pleaded
nrisOnment. that being their sentence. Among
those who secured bail was Walter Kichine. the
