strawberry Festival THE ladies o


st. Mary's congregation gave a festival at
the Fair Grounds on Monday evening last,
which was not only decided financial sue
cess, realizing over one hundred and ten
dollars, but furnished an occasion for the
enjoyment OF few hours of social inter-
course, music and dancing. Indeed, it was
one of those slvery hours which do not
come often now, but coming, joy rings out
its chime clear and sweet and the current of
pleasure passes by like a ripple on the
stream sparkling with the happy sunshine
of youth and age.
The room was most artistically arranged
for the pleasure and convenience of the COM
pany, whilst the floral decorations We're
chaste and beautiful. At each end of the
spacious hall an arch of choice flowers
reached from either side, filling the room
with delicious fragrance, seemingly await
ing the entree of their graceful rivals and
seemingly doubtful as to an easy victory.
Immediately under these floral arches tables
were arranged upon which every delicacy
that could tempt the appetite was conspicu-
ously and tastefully displayed. These tables
were presided over by the several commit
tees of ladies, whose zeal and anxiety to
please gave evidence that their hearts were
in the cause.
Scarcely had the light faded from the oc-
cident when strains OF voluptuous music fell
upon the crowded hall and soon merry
voices and bright eyes presented a piano.

amusement and which lasted until mid

The storm of the 3lst ult did great deal
of damage in our section of the county.
The question of taxing mortgages is alive
in our midst. We have a regular debate
every night. | think if the question was
sent here TO be settled it wonld be sometime
before they could come to a decision.
On Monday last | had the pleasure Of
visiting the Stonewall cemetery, at Win
chester, that hallowed spot so familiar to
every true southerner. AS | entered the
cemetery the first sound that fell upon my
ear, (save that of the crowd was the tap Of
drum; closer and closer it seemed to come
until beheld three companies of soldiers
headed by band Of music At the signal
they halted and surrounded a grave I'M
known to me; for minute every thing
was as still as death, then, with gentle
tread, one stepped forward and placed upon
the grave his tribute of respect, Ia bunch of
flowers another and another until the tomb
was covered; then midst the seraphic strains
of "Nearer My God to Thee" wreath, as if
by angelic hands, was placed over these feeble
offeringsand ere this most sacred scene closed
it melted many a heart to tears, for they
know all that remains of a once noble sol
der lies Wondering at their feet in the cold
and silent grave. 592 i

EIGHT REASONS
WHY YOU SHOULD USE AN
Ideal Coffee Pot

LIST. Because you will have Coffee ia all its
purity, strength and flavor.
I'd Because by our process the Coffee is
not boiled hence you save and keep in the
pot all the flavor, which is always lost by
boiling.
81 Because you can make at least one
quarter more Coffee from same amount of
grain, then is made by the old method.
Aih. Because the Coffee grain does not
touch the sides or bottom of the pot, hence
the Coffee is neither black nor bitter
9Th Because you use no clearing matter
Whatever, as The sack acts as a perfect clarfer.
9Th Berausc II simple arrangement over
the spout inside the pot prevents all escape OF
steam aud aroma
7lh Because the 'IDEAL CopvEE AND TEA
PoTs are the simplest and cheapest pots in
the world
9Th The IDEAL COFFEE Por is the most
perfect aud cheapest made, and if il will not
do rs We claim Tor it after one weeks trial

engaged in the grocery business in Wash
ington, was found dead in his bed on Fri
day morning last, The deceased was we'll
known in this county and his relatives and

reference to this matter the Washington
Post of Saturday morning last says:
yesterday morning Mr.. Robert G. Yew-
ell, the well-known grocer was found dead
at his residence, No. 922 M street north
west. He retired in apparent good health
and, not coming down stairs before 6 o'clock,
as was his custom, to attend market, some
one of the family went to his room to see
what was the matter. Getting no response
10 the calls the door was burst open and
Mr.. Jewell was found lying in the bed in an
easy position, as If asleep. II was found,
however, that life was extinct. Coroner
Patterson subsequently, viewed the body
and gave certificate that death resulted
from congestion Of the lungs. The deceased
was about thirty-iive years of age. He came
TO this city from Montgomery county, Md,
about seventeen years ago, and entered the
grocery and provision business. His trade
incyeased and at the time of his death he
had three stores in operation"

The Las Animas Leader reports progress
Of the boring Of the artesian veil at that
place. o. follows:
Mr. Douglass, engineer in charge, reports
that the work Of casing the we'll has BEEN
completed and boring is progressing rspidly.
A Eve inch Gazing was put in. This was
tedious Job and wa delayed somewhat wait
ing for the pipe. The bore is down FIVE
hundred feet, of which four hundred feet Is
cAsed. The rate Of progress j. ten to fifteen
feet per day. The formation is solid sand-
stone and 30 long As this lasts there will be
no future cause for delay. The bore is four
inches in diameter. making the core three
inches, which is q third larger than the
original bore of four hundred feet.
There is flow Of from three to four GAL
Ions per hour out at the top. and it is thought
a good flow will he obtained at two hundred
fee, more. The quality Of the water has not
been sscertained, being mixed with that in
use with the drill.
1t is the intention Of the department, as
Mr.. Douglass understands, to continue work
here till October LIST, unless flow Of water
should be obtained sooner; but in any event
The machinery will be moved this fall to
Greeley or wherever the second well is TO
be bored, so that work may be begun before
cold weather begins. BY that time Mr..
Douglass thinks he can get down one thou
sand feet. He has asked permission of the
Department to put on a douple shit to en-
able him to push the work.
An additional appropriation is expected
this winter, and il is evident il will be need.

THE era WORD COUNTY SYSTEM

The Wichita Eagle, Of the 4th inst, has
the following remarks on the Crawford coun-
ty system Of nominations. Il says: THE
committee have proposed an innovation that
has not been asked for BY the representative
men, nor BY the body Of the psrty, and
which, il adopted, will, if experience Is
worth anything, lead to much trouble in the
future, and may hap to defss'. We allude
to the proposed Crawford county system
One trouble will be, that il adopted, 1t will
be by small minority Of the Republicans OF
Of the county. Even H. majority OF the Re
publicsns should turn out TO the coming pri-
mariss, many will vote neither one way nor
the other. The primary election" or So
called Crawford county system, has been
tried in almost every state in The Union, and
in very few instances has it given even par
tial ra,isfsctiou. While ii looks very fair
on its face, j, leads in a short time, to null
tiplicity OF candidates and minority nominees
Minority nominees are hard TO carry and
easily beaten by The opposition. The sys'em
besides, invariably, sooner or later GENERALLY
sooper) gives ali the places Of profit and
honor to men living at the county seat.
Candidates living in the city have all the
advantage. A candidate who, under our
present system, could not carry one township
In ten. or get one delegate in dozen. under
the proposed Crawford county system can
secure nomination to the hurt OF the party
II but two candidates would ask for the same
Office the Crawford county system would
work eharmingly, bus the system itseli IN
vites many candidates, and every candidate
il interested in getting out rs many others af
possible 1t ia good thing for the newspa'
.pers, but out side of that experience has
proven the whole scheme delusion and
snare. We hope the Republicans oil sedgwicE
county will look up the workings OF the sys'
TEN and veto il. And further, We hope thu
Central Committee, II they fnd less than
majority OF the Republicans have voted io
it, will not attempt TO put into practice. I'm
der onr present system our county officer
have been drawn from every portion oil IN
county. and who will deny the past suoces
of the party in sedgwick county or the faith
fitness or trustworthiDess OF Republican
ofiicials We are decidedly for the good oil
way until something that is proven NOR
worthy is otlered.'
