David and Dora Copperfeld; DIR. Manette
and Daughter; Dick Swiveller and Mar
chioness; Grandfather and Little Nell.
After the Introduction on the stage Of
the above characters to Mr.. Pickwick, all
followed him in procession around the
central row Of seats, exciting unbOunded
interest and merriment. They occupied
the central seats, while Mics Esterbroek
and Mrs. Delap read selections from Da-
vid Copperfield and Dombey & Son, both
ladies doing very well, albeit the former
was considerably interrupted by hurr1-
cane of coughing amid the audience caused
by too successful use of the redlight to
illuminate the tableau of David and his
child wife. The tableaux were all very
finely rendered, that Of Grandfather and
Little Nell being perfect in the rendition.
| Supper followed the readings, and Mrs.
Newman and Messrs. Holden and G.
Holmes inlivened the repast by music
upon the organ. The receipts were about
1926, which will net good profit. Too
much praise cannot be accorded to the
ladies and gentlemen who personated the
various characters given, and we will
put Emporia against any place of its size
for amateur ability.

SToTLER o GRAHAM, Emporia, Kansas
DEAR SIRs:-I wish to buy a good 80
acre improved farm, near Empor1a.
Would prefer one with few acres of tim
Der and not more than four or five miles
from the city. If you happen to have
charge of such a farm, or one of less num-
Der of acres, will you please give me all
the particulars, extent of improvements,
etc. Please send me copy of your next
issue of the Land Buyer, and Oblige,
Yours Truly,
We do not urge any farmer to sell, but
would simply suggest to those who de-
sire to sell, that the business method OF
finding customer is to put the property
| on real estate agents list, and if adver-
tised so much the better. Between the
farm that is so offered for sale, and the one
that is held as if its proposed sale was q
secret to be carefully guarded, the chan
ces are decidedly in favor Of the first one
| being sold,

The Cabinet meeting ways of two
famous Presidents are thus described in
one OF the Harper's new American nov
els: "Johnson used to seat the members
at table, call the roll as it we're, and go
through business by departments, begin
ming with the Secretary of State. Lin
coin was entirely different. Every man
took = chair where he pleased. The
President walked about, discussed mat
tiers in free and easy way, or sat down
with one and another to private confer
ence He did what he liked. have
known him to roost his feet ON the table
tell stories to the Secretaries for two hours
and then send them home"

GEN. HEMpHrLI., Of the Abbeville, 8.
c., Medium, wrote to Gen. B. F. Butler,
just after the big debate in Congress about
the Doorkeeper, asking him whether he
meant what he said and really hated the
South, or was merely talking for politi-
cal effect. Gen. Butler, in reply, says:
''Your letter shows you to be reasoning,
and assume reasonable man. Now,
do you think l ought to prefer. every
thing else being equal, for Office and
place under this Government, the man
who fought against it to man who
fought for it, especially when the man
who fought for it was disabled in the
fghta Members of the House who were
in the Confederate army prefer one of
their comrades who fought with them to
one of mine who fought against them.
Do you inquire Of them whether they
hate my comrode and the whole North
because they do soi think not. Why,
then, do you inquire Of me if ] hate the
men of the South who fought against me,
because I prefer the men who fought
with me and have been disabled in so
doing, for object"
