The following personal items were taken
from the Topeka Commonwealth Of the 18th
| inst:
Hon. s. NJ. Palmer, OF Salina, passed through
Topeka yesterday, cnrOute home from EmpO-
| ria, having been In attendance on the Grand
COmmandry knights Templar. Miss Minnie
Palmer, his accomplished daughter, accompa-
MED her father.
Hon. G.. 4. Faulkner and Jacob De Witt, OF
Salina, returned home yesterday, via Topeka,
having attended the meeting Of Grand Com
mandry Knights 7empIar.
lie was quite tall fellow and well nigh
filed up with whiskey. lie wore a huge SOM
brero-a number Of feet in diameter. lie felt
real funny. lie unhitched Eastman's horse
which stood ut Lott & Ebcrhar,lI's front, got
astrIde the horse and drove Off proudly with
the horse and wagon down street. II
was indeed funny and lu,icrOus sight.
But the funniest part of the programme
was when Eastman Overhauled tie team.
and making the fellow dismount, com
menccd bOmbarding gable end with a
hail storm Of boot toe. The fellow tall and
stout and strong, and Eastman small and
weakly-thc combat was amusing. The EEL
low made no resistance, and Eastman did as
handsome piece of kicking as was ever per
formed by the most expert, lightnng-striking
mule that ever existed.
DIR SwtZer was present AT the meeting OF
the State Medical Association which took
place at Atchison last week. lie was an act
i've participant in the proceedings. The late
law with reference to the practice OF medicine
passed by the Legislature was under discuss
ion, the fraternity taking strong grounds
against it. II was by them regarded rs absurd
in every respect, and law out OF which no
possible good could come. The Champion
gives a brief abstract of the discussion, and
reports the following:
DR. Swi,zer, OF Saiina, made strong speech
in favor al complying with the law. lie
thought the discussion was improper. The
law is passed. AT the instance al amy hoInco-
path or eclectic, he, Dr. Saitzcr, could Dc fined
$50. II Is not optional with any oI the me,ll-
cal societies whether they appoint boards
t..I
and homeOpaths did not ask for it. Now We
propose To Kick against it. IL is better tn obey
a bad law than 10 kick against it, There Is n"
redress for IL.
Last fall Rev. A. J. lIartsock, pastor Of the
English Lutheran Church of this city, visited
the East in the interest of his work in this
place We ali know that his church is badly
located AMI too small-hence the necessity OF
new church. During his trip he visited the
Board of Church Extension and received en-
couragcment. The next step was 10 get the
secretary of the board To visit the field and eX
anime the work. Before the secretary lcft for
the East he encouraged the council Of the
church to forward to the board their appeal
for help. The appeal for Si,OOO to aid in
building was forwarded to the board. This
week the pastor received n letter from the sec
Rotary. saying the appeal was fayorably re-
ceived and referred TO the general synod Of
Wooster, Ohio. June llth. There is now the
pleasing hope that aid will be given, and a
new Lutheran church erected In our city. |
The pastor desires TO submit the matter to the
on sabbath morning, and urges
upon all interested to be present.
