cents. Negotiations are in progress to secure
the services of Hon. Schuyler Coliax and Gen.
Judson Fitzpatrick, and no efforts will be
spared to afford the citizens OF Salina and Sa-
line county a series Of rare literary treats in
this course of lectures. The pecuniary respon-
sibility OF this undertaking is considerable. II
is the first organized effort OF the kind made
in this community. and aside from any benefit
which the church may derive from the enter
prise, should it prove pecuniary success, our
citizens should consider the matter a. one de-
serving their hearty recognition and support.
as future efforts oil this kind may depend upon
the support given this.

PaIais Royal.

Among the many changes to take place soon
on the grand boulevard bone will be more strik-
ing and more indicative of the good time to come
than the swaying to the breeze the banners Of the
grand "Palais Royal" Our enterprising friend
Levy, who has for 60 many years been the popu-
lar proprietor Of the dollar store, No. 1877 Canal
street, seems to have had his faith shaken in re-
publican institutions and ideas, and is deter
mined, with enc fell swoop, to obliterate the
name of dollar store forever. He is making prep
arstions for the opening of this elegant and gor-
geous establishment, and nothing will be spared
in making it the most attractive place in the
Southern country. Leyy's dollar store is known
throughout the whole South, and as it has been
known for it's promptness in filing orders and
the polite attention Of the clerks and the place to
get everything, so will the Palais Royal grow
into popular favor, for we will see in the large
and gilded signs that are to adorn the building
evidences Of new era, a prosperity which We
have longed for but never expected until the
present lime.

Now the humblest citizen may approach tho
officials Of the government-tho President
hinself-certain of receiving the klndost re-
ception and the most courteous consideration.
Tho whole character of the government has
been changed. Whether you approach Mr.
Hayes or ono Of the Cabinet or any Of the
subordnates you are made 10 feel that you
are citizen Of q republic and that the Off
cials Of tho government are the chosen scr
wants Of tho public interests If devotion
to tho material interests Of every section Of
tho country and uniform courtesy can popu-
larizc this Administration. 1t will be popular

| think tho object of Mr.. Hayes is to
bring as many Southern people In contact
with himself and his cabinet rs possible. and
to impress them favorably. You may SEQ
how great q popularibing movement this Is.
The President Ia himself u gentleman Of far
more than ordinary social attractions and'all
the members Of his cabinet are meu of ele-
gance and culture. Every Southern man that
meets thom Is agrecably impressed and. ac-
eordingly, becomes among his friends, asso-

has some bearing ON the libel suit Of Senator
