A military Company.

The question of organizing a military
company is being agitated here, and al
ready number of our young men have
signified their willingness to join. There
is no reason why Emporia should not
have first class company. Ottawa is
far behind us in most respects, but has a
really excellent one, well drilled and
disciplined. 1t is rather premature to
give any Of the details, nor could we do
so If we wished, though we can say that
it is proposed To muster about one hum
dred men, not including officers, and to
organize in strict accordance with the
state laws and be subservient to them.
Lieut.. Truitt has signified his willing
ness to aid in perfecting the arrange
ments while he is with us, and we hope
that no time may be lost in securing the
necessary information from the Govern
or, so that his valuable services may be
availed of. We would like to see such
an organization as this, here, and hope
that one which will do credit to our city
and county may soon be "under armsO

where it is being destroyed by chinch
bugs. These pests are playing the mis-

Last evening as one of the many droves
of harmless (O cows were being driven
in from the prairies q scene was enacted
that makes the blood run cold to read of
The herder being anxious to bring up
his stock that he might the sooner be
free, started them into run just at the
western confines of the CITY, A number
oflittle children were playing in the
road and did not observe the madly run
ming cows until right upon them, when
scattering as fast as their little legs could
carry them, managed to get out of harms
way, all save one "wee" thing who could
not go so fast, or was old enough to ex-
ercise any judgment as to which way to
run. On came the cows, now thorough
ly scared themselves, with lowered
heads, and one of them catching the ten
der child upon its horns, piercing her
side, carried her on to destruction. The
infants cries soon alarmed the neighbor-
hood, and the mothers rushed frantical-
ly from their homes to see whose ''dar-
ling" was pleading for help with all the
power of its youthful lungs. One wo-
man laid down upon the floor the babe
that she held in her arms while she ran
10 look after the rest of her brood, well
nigh crazy lest her worst fears should be
realized and hers be the victim of the
maddened brutes. In her haste to reach
the door her dress caught in a projec-
ton of a heavy stand and pulling
it down it fell upon the babe as it lay
helpless upon the floor literally crush
ing the spark of life out of its frail body.
Horror of horrors, the mother caught
the suffering little one to her bosom and
flew to the gate to see the herd disap-
pearing around turn of the road, bear
ing somebody's child" aloft in the air
the piteous cries, mingled with the bel
lowing of the animals and the shrieks of
the herders as they vainly tried to head
of the cattle and rescue the now nearly
dead child. On, on they sped, clearing
everything before them, and If this ar
ticle was founded on fact the wher-
abouts of the lot would now be made
known. As it is, we call attention to
the fact that the above incident in
even a more serious measure is ike
~ to occur at at any time, it is not
a week ago, that two little girls were
Obliged to climb over a fence to escape a
cow who attacked them, and this latter
case can be vOuched for by responsible
parties. Prevention is eminently pre-
ferable to cure, and if the scene which
we have humbly endeavored to depict
will in any way tend to ameliorate the
nuisance which the cows certainly are
under existing circumstances, we shall
feel that our questionable means have
accomplished a most desirable end.

AYERS PILLS have been known for
more than a quarter OF a century, and
have obtained a worldwide reputation
for their virtues. They correct dis
eased action in the several assimila-
tive organs of the body, and are SO
composed that Instructions within
their range can rarely Withstand or
eVade them. Not only do they cure
the everyday complaints OF every
body, but also formidable and danger
ous diseases that have baffled the best
OF human skill. While they produce
powerful effects, they are, at the same
time, the safest and best physic for
children. BY their aperient action
they grippe much less than the common
purgatives, and never give pain when
reach the vital fountains OF the blood,
1t from the elements OF weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions
in all climates, containing neither
calomel nor any deleterious drug,
these Pills may be taken with safety
by anybody. Ti:cif sugar-coating pre-
serves them ever fresh and makes
them pleasant to take; while being
purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity
