A New church Organization.

As members of the Reformed Church
have from time to time arrived here from
Pennsylvania and other states to seek
permanent homes in this city and coun-
ty, and hope to build up both EnpOria and
Lyon county, and desiring to enjoy their
accustomed church privileges which, like
those of all our sister churches, are pecu
liar TO themselves, their history and gen.
Jus, hence they have consulted together
about the propriety and duty of organic
ing a Reformed congregation on next
Sunday, Feb. 9th.
With this noble end in view, they have
secured the use of the Welsh PIesbyteri-
an church, in which edifice they will
meet at 10 80 O'Clock p. m. next Sunday.
All friends of church work and religious
progress are most cordially invited to
meet with us then and from time to time,
especially such as may desire % learn
something more fully and definitely about
the general history and dOctrinal teach
ings as well as the customs and usages
of this senior member of the great pro-
testant family. This movement goes for
ward under the auspices of two of the
leading missionary and church-extension
boards of the Reformed church east, who
have commissioned the Rev. L. c. Ed
monds to superintend this and other SIM
liar movements in southern Kansas, Col
orado, Texas, etc. Provision will be
made for both English and German
preaching. MISSIONARY.

READING.

EDITORS NEws:-We are all glad
that Ingalls, was elected, and we
had great "pow-ow" last night over it.
We were sorry that Lyon county did
not support him.
Last Friday night this city was full
of excitement over the discovery of coal
in the new well, they are digging at
our school house, and it came to pass
this wise: The miners that dug this
well, were blasting the soap stone some
thirty feet below the surface, and by
drilling for the last blast they struck
coal in The hole, fired the blast at
quarry time and they knew that there
was coal there. They got TO work next
morning about three O'Clock. They found
the coal, and to their horror il was only
two inches thick. The newspapers of
this city can't account for the thinness
of the coal, but it is easy to tell them
that this vein is in its infancy-baby
vein-and If they had left it lay
there a little longer, no doubt in
my mind that it would have grown.
But let me tell them right here, that
they cannot expect to find the Swansea
vein of coal until they get through the
rock that lays under this valley and as
soon as they go through this rock then
look for coal that is worth working for
and that will be about seventy feet from
the surface.
Mr.. Stratton is having two wells dug,
and two or three residences built. He
expects his family, his brother and fami
ly and one or two other families to move
here in two weeks. He starts lumber
yard and store. The lumber is on the
road now and the town is full of life.
DR.. Roup has been sick, but he is able
to be around.
Mr.. L. Slavery was in town today and
gave US a call on his way home from the
senatorial contest. He looks we'll. EN-
poria agrees with his constitution be-
cause he grows fat
There was a dance at Mr.. H. W. Rry-
ans last Friday night. Every one en-
joyed themselves; good turnout. excel
lent supper, jolly time and all went
home before sunrise and said that this
was the best entertainment Of the sea-
son.
The church was crowded last Sunday,
not room for all to sit down. Mr.. New.
comb is good speaker and no doubt
will domuch good for the community.

To TREE PLANTERS

EDITORS EMPoRIA NEWS Il am in
receipt of the following circular from the
secretary of the State Horticultural SOci-
ETY., which would ask you to give a
place in your paper.
Our county, as well as others, is being
scourged pretty thoroughly by the par
ties described in this circular, and large
number of our people are smarting un-
der the remembrance of the visitation of
the Russian Hybrid Apple Fraud, I" and
several other frauds of kindred nature
A large number of people have within
a year or two become residents of the
county, and it is these who mostly be-
come the victims.
1t is but justice to persons offering to
do business in the county that they be
allowed to vindicate themselves, or to the
people, that they should be required to
do so for the protection of buyers.
When we recall the fact that abont rs
per cent. of the money paid for stock to
these foreign agents is lost, either from
the nOn-adaptability of the varieties or
the excessive prices charged, it becomes
a question of vital importance to our peo-
pie to give this matter careful consider
alton. AS representative of the horti-
cultural interests of Lyon county 1 ask
the people to report to me from time to
time such facts bearing upon this matter
rs may come to their knowledge
Very respectfully,

Reduced RAILROAD Rates.

People who are going or coming from
Kansas or Texas will again have cause
to thank the NJ. E. & 7. railway, from
the fact that, on February 1st, 1879, they
made heavey reduction in passenger
rates to and from Kansas and Texas, not
only in through but in local rates. They
reduced their local passenger rates over
all their main line and branches in Kan
sas to four cents per mile. With their
many miles of track this reduction will
have a very material effect, especially on
passenger rates from Hannibal, Mo, to
Kansas points; and at the same time it
makes reduction in through rates to
Northern Texas, both from Hannibal
and st. Louis. A short time since, when
they reduced their local rates to Missouri
TO three cents per mile, a reduction of
five dollars was made, in some cases, in
through rates TO points in Kansas; and
now that they have again cut down local
rates, the people who travel, or who are
emigrating to Kansas or Texas, should
thank this liberal corporation, the N.
X. & T. railway. A neatly print
ed sheet, showing the new rates of fare
from and to all ptominet points, was is
sued February 1st, and will enable the
public to see the heavy reductions.
Copies, we are informed, will be mailed
free to all who send their address to

two years old Raspberries, blackber
ries, gooseberries and currants-In
these the wants of the planter require
strong, well rooted plants remove; them
at one year old Strawberries should
always be transplanted at one year old /;
older plants will not dowell. One point
in particular should be borne in mind
that the tastes and opinions of people
differ in different states. The wants of
the planters south do not usually re-
quire as large trees as do those in most
of the states north, To a certain ex-
tent the size of the tree or plant, and
not the age so much, should govern the
choice, as it must be apparent to every
individual that tree of only two years
growth and five to six feet high and well
proportional is much better for him and
worth twice the money that one is of the
same size at four years old. The same
rule will apply to plants. NJ. C. r.

MEssRs. EDIToRs.-While the tree
question is being agitated, am surpris-
ed that some one does not put in a plea
for an ordinance prohibiting tTe run
ming at large of cows, in our city. 1t
is shame that we have so few shade
trees in our streets, Jour yards are being
better supplied) but when people set
them three or four times over, and with
seemingly ample protection, only to see
them broken down and destroyed, it gets
to be discouraging, and for one have
determined not to expend any more mon
ey or labor IN that direction, while our
city remains a ''cow pasture" Let
those who keep cows build yards for
them, which would be much cheaper
than fencing in the trees and the ex-
pense would rest where it belongs.
Many property owners would doubt.
less be glad to put trees around their
lots who do not feel SbIe to build extra
fences for them, and all could even bet.
ter afford to contribute something to-
wards the cattle yards than to bear the
constant expense of replacing broken
boards in our side walks, which are all
the time in an unsafe condition, and &C
cidents frequently occurring which may
render the city liable for heavy dam
ages. Votes or no votes, let us keep the
matter sounding in the ears of our "city
fathers" until this nuisance shall be
abated. Who will speak next? S.
5. must have overlooked the fact that
THE News has frequently urged the pas
sage of an ordinance to keep up the
stock. We can hope for no permanent
relief in this matter while cattle and
horses are permitted to roam at will
over the city day and night We will
have no trees so long as this condition of
things lasts
