A New church I'm Emporia.

The members of the United Presbyte-
rian church residing in Emporia and its
neighborhood find, from an experience
of more than three years, that they ar
laboring under many and serious disad-
yantages in building up the cause of the
Redeemer in this city on account of not
owning church building of their own in
which to conduct their religious servi-
ces. Heretofore the effort has been, in
the eyes of some, much of the character
of a doubtful experiment; but Of late
their prospects have been Frightening.
so that they are very much encouraged.
There are now within the bounds of En-
poria and its neighborhood more than
thirty members, only five of whom were
connected with the congregation at the
beginning of the effort to build up a
United Presbyterian church, three years
years ago; and counting children and
adherents, there are more than seventy
persons attached to this denomination.
They at present hold their services in
Fowler's hall, morning and evening of
each first and third Sabbath of every
month, and maintain q weekly prayer
meeting and Sabbath school. But they
wish as soon as possible to procure q lot
and erect a suitable church building.
Believing that there are many friends in
the east, and some citizens in Emporia,
who will take an interest in the cause,
and who will assist them in this lauda-
BILE undertaking, they have taken pre-
liminary measures for collecting the nee
essary funds by personal contributions,
and by making appeals to their friends
and to their board of church extension,
and by issuing a subscription paper.
AS the population of our city is rapid
ly increasing, there is a demand for more
church accommodations. Another neat
and commodiOus church building will be
an enhancement to our real estate, and a
great inducement to further immigration
to our city and neighborhood. Already
several immigrants have passed through
to other places on this account alone.
All other denominations having church
es in the city have been assisted at vari-
Gus times in similar undertakings blythe
liberal people of Emporia, and we conf
IDENTIFY hope that similar proofs Will be
given to us in our efforts to secure what
we so much need gFs
We take this method Of introducing
this subject 10 the liberal-minded people
of Emporia, and hope that when they
may be called upon to subscribe, they
may do SO with enlighted Judgment.

hf FRIDAY, January 20.
The only event worthy of note yester-
day was the case of alledged horse steal
ing before Justice Miller. The case was
set for two O'Clock, in order to have the
county attorney here but he failed TO
get here and the prosecuting witness
failed also to appear and the case was
dismissed at the cost of the prosecuting
witness. This is no bar, however, to be-
ing yet prosecuted, but under the cir
cumstances We think the charge should
be of lower grade, one that would i'm
pose fine and Imprisonment. Some
men that are learned p in the law, claim
ed that the defendant could not be again
arrested in this case, but we hold diff
ferent opinion. KENO

She was walking down Fifth avenue, all
fixed up nice with frizzes and furbelows.
He was not far off. She sat down on the
sidewalk with more force than grace.
He was stranger, but like a true gen
tleman he sprang forward to her assist
ance with outstretched hands, but, alas +!
Just as he reached her the treacherous
ice caused him to set down beside her;
and in his disgust he uttered an excla-
nation that sounded like Oh it,"
She smiled serenely and said, That's it
thank you" and then they got up and
went away friends.

quite sick for some weeks, and on ac-
count of the continued illness of her hus-

him, the family has been very much in

hour of bereavement heartfelt sympathy
will be extended by our people here. We
