The Camilla Urso Concert.

The Camilla Urso troupe arrived here
in good time Saturday evening, and were
greeted with large house, the hall be-
ing well filed with the most fashionable
audience it probably everheld. The con-
cert throughout was a perfect ovation,
nearly every piece being heartily encored.
The audience was more than satisfied
with the entertainment which was Ger.
tainly all that had been promised, and
the greatest musical treat ever listened
to here. We need not attempt any de
scription of the concert for those who
were present, and nothing we could say
would enable those who were not pres
emit to understand or appreciate what
they missed.

Music. roasting and Dancing.


The A. o. U. w. social Tuesday even.
ing 4th, was well attended by members OF
that f1Ourishing lodge, their ladies and
friends, and proved to be one of the
pleasant affairs of the season. Miss Al
lie Spangler, who, by the way, took a
very creditable part in the musical por-
ton of the recent entertainment at the
Presbyterian church, and Prof Kennedy,
furnished vocal and instrumental music,
a comic song by the latter causing great
amusement. Miss Spangler and Mr..
Birdsall gave a piano and violin duet,
and Mr.. Skidmore and Mr.. Birdsall also
gave such duet. Promenading and So
cial intercourse filled up the time until
supper was announced. 1t was an ex-
cellent repast, well served, and did credit
to all who took part in furnishing it.
After supper, the music recommended
and the floor was cleared for dancing,
and values and quadrilles succeeded
each other from 10 o'clock until about
midnight, the piano and violin furnish
good music and Mr.. BirdsaIl calling off.
1t was decidedly pleasant and success

How to Save Money

Farmers, mechanics, hlacksmiths,
housekeepers, old settlers, new settlers,
and all who settle their bills, we have a
word of advice for you. You can save
money whenever you want to buy any,
thing in the line of hardware or agricul-
tural implements, by going to the larg-
est hardware store in EmpOria, and prob
ably the largest IN the state We refer
OF course to the store of J. NJ. Griffith s.
Go. Few even of their best customers
are aware of the immensely of their stock
OF goods. 1t fills both floors of their
large store on Commercial street fills
their yard in the rear of the store, fills
part of another lot further down tho
street, fills their large warehouse on 4th
avenue, and large quantity of wagons
and farm machinery is outside the ware
house waiting for room to be made so it
can be got inside. Griffith s. Co., never
had such an immense stock of goods on
hand before. The fact is that they took
| advantage of the recent war on freights
here between the A, T. & S. F. and NJ.
h. IL T. railroads, and got in q whole
freight train of goods. They received
two car loads of fence wire alone, two of
nails and bar iron, and number of car
loads of wagons, Deere's Gilpin sulky
plows, DavenpOrt's cultivators, Champi-
on reaper and mower, Browns corn
planters, Deere's plows of all kinds,
Deere's rotary corn planter, the cele-
brated Balm wagon, a full line of shelf
and house-building hardware, carpenters
tools, garden tools, rope and chains, and
a thousand articles we cannot mention.
They are sole agents for the celebrated
Glidden's steel barbed fence wire. Their
stock of Deere's plows comprises every
variety. They sold % Gilpin sulky
plows in few days.
| In addition to all the previous articles,
Griffith & Co. keep large assortment
of No: cutlery, for both pocket and ia
BILE use, and numerous articles used in
Housekeeping. They are selling large
quantities of blue. grass, clover and Usage
orange seed, and now is the time to plant
them. IfyOu want good seine Irvine,
and. a good pocket knife to cut it with, it is
there. If you want anything in the hard
ware line from tack to spring wagon
or farm wagon, from a hoe to a mower
and reaper. it is there. They sell three
kinds of school desks. including the
Rustic all wood desk, an excellent ar
lticle. There never was such a stock of
goods in Emporia as may now be found
at j. NJ. Griffith s. Co.'s, and nobody can
beat them on prices. 1t will pay farm
ers to come 100 miles to Emporia to buy
either hardware or farm implements,
when they have such immense stocks to
