son Center, and when near Lindsborg. he was
accosted by a youngish looking man. who re-
quested Mr.. Craffey to give him seat in his
carriage, representing that he was on his way
TO Salna. Mr.. Craffey not liking the mans
appearance refused. The man plead his case
and began threatening. CraiIey picked up a
gun he had with him and notified the fellow
to take his hands of Of the carriage. which he
at once did. There is no doubt but what he
is the same man who attempted to rob Mr..
Lundbery. lie is desperate fellow. He has
brown hair, grey eyes. wears mustache. and is
OF medium height. His coat was torn on one
side and pinned with hedge thorn.

Mr.. Harry LGO0erS informs us tnat q man
working on his mothers farm southeast OF
town. has discovered a quarry Of fine magne-
sian limestone, similar to that found near Be-
lott and Ellis. The stone lies two and three
feet under the surface in the bluff. on the east
side OF the Smoky Hill. The quarry will at
once be opened, and no doubt exists but the
stone will be found in every way equal to the
Beloit stone. This is good news to our citi-
zens. and we expect to see some Of the pro-
jected buildings loom up III stone.

question will be admitted 10 vote of the county.
And while IL ID tue thai portions of Saline county
opposed TO the proposition there can scarcely be
in which the people OF >slina have taken hold
Of this enterprise is q sure guarantee Of success.
The first three days :his week were one Of
the greatest weeks for the sale and shipment
ofbroom corn from this city ever known. in her
history and We doubt IL more corn has changed
hands in the same period in any other city in
the west. On Monday evening thirty-seven
load5 came into town Just At dusk. and on Tues
day the long, heavy loads came down our
streets to the warehouses. 1t is estimated
that nearly one hundred and,fifty tons came In
on the days mentioned. Mr.. Craffey bought
overtime hundred tons OF corn alone. II was
piled high against Anderson's warehouse.

the preliminary survey OF the proposed new

Education for the Kitchen.

The next great step must be to do the
same thing for the ait of cookery; and
the friends of genuine social improve
ment may congratulate themselves that
the progress of education is beginning
to take effect upon this important de-
partment of domestic life. Cooking
schools are springing up in many places
in this country and in England, and the
English are taking the lead in organic
ing them as part Of their national and
common school system.
OF the Importance, the imperative
necessity Of this movement, there can
not be the slightest question. Our kitch-
ems, as is perfectly notorious, are the
fortified intrenchments of ignorance,
prejudice, irrational habits, rule-of-
thumb, and mental vacuity, and the
consequence is that the Americans are
liable to the reproach of suffering be.
yond any other people from wasteful,
unpalatable, unhealthful and monot.
onous cookery. Considering our re.
sources, and the vaunted education and
intelligence of American women, this re-
proach is just. Our kitchens are, in
fact, almost abandoned to the control of
low Irish, stupid negroes, and raw serv.
lie menials that pour in upon US from
various foreign countries. And, what
is worse, there is general acquiescence
in this state of things, as if it were
something fated, and relief from it hope
less and impossible. We profess to be-
lieve in the potency of education, and
are applying it to all other interests and
industries excepting only that funda.
mental preparation and use of food TO
sustain life which involves more of econ.
omy, enjoyment, health, spirits, and the
power of effective labor, than any other
subject that is formally studied in the
schools. We abound in female SEM
inaries and in female colleges, and high,
schools, supported by burdensome
taxes, in which every thing under heaven
is studied except that practical art which
is daily and vital necessity in all the
households of the laRd.-Dr. YounlanS,
In Popular Science Monthly.

English Railway Carriages.

A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Bulletin writes "The 'first-class,' in
which very few people ride, are made
to resemble remotely the old-fashioned
coach bodies joined together and
mounted on car wheels They are fur
nished after fashion with stuffed backs
and arms dividing the seats into three
parts. There is no rest for your feet
and your legs get tangled up with your
opposite neighbor, while your head
rests where numberless heads of all de-
grees of cleanliness have rested before.
Our sleeping. cars are bad enough, but
you have at least clean pillow-case
and clean sheets to cone in contact
with. The second-class cars, which
are most used, are much cheaper than
the first, where the prices are general
ly extortionate. They resemble one of
our good freight cars, so far as their
general construction is concerned.
They are divided into three sections by
plain board partitions, Just as the first
class are. Some of them have stuffed
backs to the seats, extending as high as
your head, and some only half the
height. The seats extend without par
tition all the way across, and the unfor-
tunate passenger, who does not get an
end seat, has hard time of it to keep
perpendicular if he attempts to sleep.
The third class is very much like the
second, except that it is a shade worse,
although on some of the roads | have
found the third better th2n the second
on others.''
