the city speculating upon the beauty
of the location and the many advant-
ages which this thriving community
suggests. In the matter of business
men lola has wideawake, energetic,
set of men, which is atsested ey
the fact that they secured the
building of this road against unusual
competition.
: IN THE EVENING.
In the evening The programme Of
the day was concluded by grand bali
at the Opera House, and -sociable at
the.eourt house. Both were well at
tender by the young people. and in
spite of the unusual heat much pleas
ure was found by those in attendance.
This ended day which will long be
remembered by the people Of Fort
Scott and lola. The return to Fort
Scott was a pleasant moonlight ride,
which was enjoyed in spite of the IA
tigue of the day.
{. a. 80 THE RAILRoAD.
Up copclasion we feel compelled to
speak Of the railroad to whom we are
. indebted for the pleasure of the excur-
sion, having already spoken of it's Off
.cers. The annals of railroad building
+. furnish few instances where work has
been pushed with the rapidity which
has characterized the building of the
,St. Louis, TT. Scott & Wichita road,
and they do not furnish any instance
where better work has been done. The
tsmoothness of the track was matter
of general remark, and even now pas
isenger trains can be run at any reason
fable speed with perfect safety. This
lis owing to the fact that the material
usedhas been first-class, and the work
done by capable and honest men. The
near future is bound to develop it into
one of the important railroads of Kan
sas. For the cities and villages along
its line, there IS bright future, con-
meeting all points west of this city
With st. Louis, Memphis and Calves
ton, enabling them to take advantage
of the southern markets for Kansas
products or obtain the semi-tropical
productions Of the south at a greatly
reduced cost. To Fort Scott it opens
a vast area of territory which can not
find as avaible selling market for
it's wheat as we can furnish. We also
invite the attention of the merchants
along its line to the fact that Fort
Scott has developed large and pay
ing wholesale trade, and large and
substantial firms which can furnish
anything in the way Of groceries, fur
piture, leather, saddlery, hardware, or
dry goods at prices that will compete
with any buying market. While to
all the vast territory westof us it will
furnish cheap and abundant coal. 1t is
,therefore.a matter for general congrat-
iulation that this important enterprise
is being crowned with success and we
say all honor to the men who had the
pluck, energy and brains to build it.

EarIy Iron Making in England.

In the reign of Edward LII iron was
so scarce that the pots, spits and frying
pans of the royal kitchen were classcd
among the kings jewels. Up to the
end of the fifteenth century, English
iron was not only dearer, but inferior,
to that manufactured on the continent.
During the fifteenth century the manu-
facture of iron began to be extensive
in Sussex, where the ore and timber for
smelling it abounded, and iron mills
soon became numerous in the country.
The landed proprietors entered into the
business eagerly, and not only were
many ancient houses enriched thereby,
but several new men acquired wealth
and founded families. In the Forest
of Dean also iron was largely smelted,
but the land soon become denuded of
trees in consequence of the exclusive
use of charcoal for smelling; people
became alarmed, and many edicts
were Illuminated restricting the manu-
facture of iron. Eventually the feeling
became so strong that from the time of
the Restoration the iron manufacture
of England rapidly declined. Coal, as
then used, iujuriously affected the
quality of the iron, and it was not till
the beginning of the eighteenth century
that steps were taken to overcome this
difficulty.

Too Late For the Resurrection.

The story OF man who, having hir-
ed a horse to attend funeral and was
cautioned against oyer-drivirfg, said he
would keep up with the procession if he
killed the horse, is retold in a different
shape of an Illinois candidate for nom-
ination to office. Wishing to reach the
convention at town, he hired horse
at a livery stable. In spite of the can
didate's pounding and swearing, the
animal was so slow that the man did
not get there until after the conven-
ton had adjourned, and SO he lost his
nomination He denounced the owner
for giving him such beast. The pro-
prietor of the stable, on investigation.
discovered that the hostler had let him
have one of the hearse horses. 'Hearse
horse, hearse horser' cried the baffled
politician. ''Why, if a man should
start to a funeral with such a horse as
that he would not reach the grave till
two weeks after the resurrection"

Condensed History of Steam.

About 2SO years B. c., Hero, of Alex
andria, formed toy which exhibited
some of the powers of steam, and was
moved by its power.
In $40, A. D., an architect arranged
several caldrons of water, each covered
with the wide bottom of a leather tube,
which rose to narrow top, with pipes
extended to the rafters of an adjoining
building. A fire was kindled beneath
the caldrons, and the house was shaken
with the efforts of the steam ascending
the tubes. This is the first notice of the
power of steam recorded.
In 1884, June II Basco de Garay tried
a steamboat of 200 tons with tolera-
BILE success, at Barcelona, Spain. 1t
consisted of caldron of boiling water
and a movable wheel on each side of
the ship. 1t was laid aside as i'm
practicable. A present was, however,
made to Garay.
In 1850 the first railroad was con-
structed at Newcastle-on-Tyne

England was in the Marquis Worces-
