Mr.. S. T. Ellishas purchased Wings
interest in the livery business and will
hereafter conduct it alone. He has Mt
ted up this stable in fiEzt-clasa style snd
has also the finest turn outs in the city.
Plenty of shed room and farmers
coming to town will find good place
to put up their teams at Ellis livery
stable on West Street.
Az no one seems to take the led IN
the investigation Of the release q
Ames, we would suggest that q public
meeting be held at Humboldt or lola
where q flee expression Of the views Of
the people could be had, and ifdeemed
best q committee appointed to look up
the entire affair. It cost Allen
county considerable to send desper-
ate criminal to prison, and the people
paid the bill. Their work was in vain. |
Why?
I wish the pupils Of, the LIST and I'd
Grades to write to me at Garnet next
week or the week after. I want these
letters to illustrate the "Quincy Meth
cd" in the Didactics Glass. The let
tiers may be on any subject and of any
length, but in form, arrangement,
punctuation etc., wish them to be
written without assistance. I intended
to see the members of these Grades,
but not having the time, I insert this
notice. I trust all will comply with
the request. p. H. HARRIS.
A. Jeffties, one mile east of lola,
brought to town last Saturday two
stalks of corn, which measured over Is
feet in height, and was 8 feet from ear
to ground. He has about an acre of
this corn all equal to the samples he
brought in. The variety is new to this
country, it being ffom a sample pro-
cured at the Centennial, and the name
he could not give US. To properly realize
the height of this corn it can be added
that no ordinary man can stand on the
ground flat-footed and reach the ears.
The grain is large and ear well filed
out. Our exchanges are asked to beat
this sample of "Kansas gumbo."
