Mrs. Jas. Simpson has Just received
large and elegant line of millinery
goods, to which she invites the atten-
ton of the ladies. She has all the lat
est full styles and will guarantee satis-
faction to those dealing with her.
For the benefit of the READERS of this
paper who do not already know that
the Peerless flour is kept to the high
est standard of excellence, we would
say that such is the case, while the
price is no higher than second rate.
Why can we sell lower than our
competitors? Because we handle only
mems and boys goods; therefore give
that line Jail our attention, buying
with more care and for less money
than merchants with mixed stocks.

Mr.. l. s. Coe called on us Monday,
some specimens of as fine |
as we have seen this year. |
They are called the"Pride of Kansas
md have been developed by Mr.. Coe |
They were raised on upland
md certainly prove that Kansas soil |
an raise potatoes when properly |
AIRED for.
Boyle met his match on the witness
tand last Monday in bright old lady |
rom "dOwn east" After long and |
abOrious examination, when Boyle
was about exhausted and the old lady |
rs fresh as daisy. she coOlly remarked |
hat she thought "the young gentle
nan had entirely failed to ask any
Questions pertinent to the case"
A late decision of the Supreme Court
Onstrues a certain provision of the
tatutes to the effect that the fees of
he Justice of the Peace and officers in
Justices courts shall not aggregate
more than ten dollars in criminal cases.
As these fees run from ten to fifty dol
ars, and generally exceed the statute
Y limit considerably, our justices and
are highly indignant, and
strikes us, with reason. 1t certainly
GEMS most unjust, and we imagine it
will not last long.
One of the pleasantest episodes of
he Scout" to those taking part in it,
vas the presentation by number Of
he members of the Post, of a pair of
handsome bracelets to Miss Carrie
smith as mark of appreciation of her
citing. On one of the bracelets was
Inscribed &c. A. r. No. ST." and on
he'other "Iola, Kansas" Cy Simp-
on made neat little presentation
peech which was feeiingly replied to
Y Miss Smith. We understand that ,
; is the Intention of the Post at its
ext meeting, to present each of our
ONE ladies who took part i'm the play,
With q handsome token of remem-
erance. Such action would, We think,
e very fitting as they all did their ,
'ork faithfully and well and are GER
,inly deserving of hearty thanks and
redit.
We have heard some criticisms upon
ne County Attorney for not pushing
ne liquor cases in the docket at the re-
INT term of court to trial. n one de- I
res more than the REGISTER to see
lese prosecutions vigorously persisted ,
/ until the saloon business in Allen
)unty is crushed out. At the same $
me when heavy docket, both civil ,
nd criminal, came before the District |
curt at its last session, calling loudly
+ action, it was absolutely impossi-
lie that half or all of the time should a
= consumed in the trial of the whisky
lses. Besides through the vigorous
forts Of the County Attorney, the
vii has been greatly lessened i'm the
'uuty, and we think will be reduced E
the minimum in short time. \
We remember suggesting year ago,
ter the "Spy of Atlanta" that we
fought it hardly necessary to pay for s
reign material for the production of +
lch play in Iola-and now since the
of the "Scout of Tonnes
e." we feel much more like making
lie same suggestion. We have gen
emen in town who understand STAGE
full as well as l.. d.
obbs, and under whose direction such
play could be put upon the boards
it'll much less friction than attended
Ie "Scout." We have home talent
0, who could take the parts for which
e had imported help, just as credita- h
y-and more SO, We think-with per- >,
Fps the exception of DevendOrf. We
link that some good military play r
ven by our own people and "Schnei- n
r" would have been even more sue C.
ssful than the ttScnufN- cerfainlv |
