the very cold weather, there was not
large audience. Il is estimated that

The market Of Bartlett & Jenkins
on Christmas Day was a marvel Of
beauty for those who love to live well.
AS one party said, there was not even
80 fine q show IN any New York mar
ket Quarter after quarter OF fat beef,
ofmutton and pork were arrayed in
close order, making the palate happy
with visions Of great smoking rOasts,
and broad steaks. This market not |
only makes such an exhibition on |
Christmas Day. but keeps Il up
throughout the year.
We are happy to announce that the /
college subscriptions Of $1,000 have |
been completed, and that the stock
holders will proceed at once to organ
ize. IL Is believed that about SO, 900 |
will be spent upon the main building, |
5000 On a dOrmitory, and 5000 on
land and furniture for the school |
rooms. The question Of location may /
come up today. We hope there will |
be no unpleasant feeling generated by |
this question. There should be none.
Let the most votes settle ii for all |
time
The citizens o ( Salina are greatly |
indebted to Messrs. H. C. Rash, A. NJ.
Ciafiln, J. w. Daily, Oscar Seltz and |
A. l.. Dodge, the college subscription |
committee, for the grand work they |
have done towards obtaining the loca-
tinn Of a college In our place. Their
energy, their zeal. their untirlng ef-
forts both night and day, have been
remarkable. IL Is no small work to /
obtain pledge Of $50 from a new
county like ours for an institution OF
learning Only those who have taken
part in the work fully appreciate the
immense amount Of labor required.
All honor TO the enterprising, unset
fish soliciting committee.
