er, on April Sd, three miles northwest of
Americas.
The concert last night brought out q
full house, and the tribute which the
fashion and culture of Americas and sub
urbs Including Emporia) paid to the
genius of Prof SOgard and those under
his instruction, was as creditable to it
as it was flattering to him and them
The brass band of Cottonwood Falls is
also entitled to fair share of the credit
of the entertainment. Theirs is a much
older band than ours, but have not, per
haps, had so much practice of late. The
glee club did remarkably well, and
would certainly have added still more to
their laurels, had it not been for the una
voidable absence of their Organist, Mrs
Heasley. Judge Cochran, of Cottonwood
Falls, by way of variety, gave his tenn,
perance "piece," yorkshire Farmer" in
his inimitable way, and brought down
rounds of applause. There was quite a
number present from Emporia. We
learn that some persons who tried to gel
the worth of their money by looking in
at the windows, broke one of them. The
rendition of the last piece-a march
composed and arranged by Prof. Sogard
was splendid. In fact, throughout il
was musical feast.
MONDAY, March 81.
The Ruggles bridge will he open for
travel on and after today.
On Saturday fire started about four
miles north west of town and run through
all the farms to the road near Allen creek,
coming down to the very edge of town.
Hay and fences were the amount of the
loss, yet great~many lost all the hay
they had. The residences of L. A. Wood
and Mrs. Edgerly were only saved by the
most heroic efforts.

The reputation it has attained, in
consequence of the marvellous cures it
has produced during the last half CEN
fury, is a sufficient assurance to the
public that it will continue to realize
the happiest results that can be desired.
In almost every section of country
there are persons, publicly known, who
have been restored from alarming and
even desperate diseases of the lungs,
by its use. All who have tried it ac-
knowledge its superiority; and where
its virtues are known, no one heSitateS
as to what medicine to employ to re-
lieve the distress and suffering peculiar
to pulmonary affections. CHERRY Pee
TORAL always affords instant relief, and
performs rapid cures of the milder va
rieties of bronchial disorder, as well as
the more formidable diseases of the
lungs.
As a safeguard to children, amid
the distressing diseases which beset
the Throat and Chest of Childhood, it
is invaluable; for, by its timely use,
multitudeS are rescued and restored to
health.
This medicine gains friends at
every trial, as the cures it is constantly
producing are too remarkable to be
forgotten. No family should be with
out it, and those who have once used
it never will.
Eminent Physicians throughout the
country prescribe it, and Clergymen
often recommend it from their knowl-
edge of its effects.

A Lively Runaway,

The liveliest runaway of the season took
place about o'clock last night, when a
frisky flly attached to two-seated German
town wagon kicked the traces near the cor
ner of Fort and Douglas streets, and succeed
ed in making wide circuit before he
was captured. Starting at the point above
designated, the animal dashed down Fort to
Fifth street and from thence to lower town.
momentary interruption occurred at the
postoffice, where the flying rig tackled
lamp post. The turn was called by the lat
ter, andlafter leaving the wagon seat the de-
moralized wreck proceeded with accelerated
speed to Jackson street, turning north on the
latter thoroughfare. When nearing the
corner of Sixth street collision ensued with
wood pile, and the shock created was equal
to the propelling force of forty mule bat
tering ram. The wagon was completely
overturned and bystander succeeded in
catching the horse. The rig was owned by
Schultz & Hansen, and no harm was caused
aside from the damage to the wagon.
