The old Soldiers Fair.-The COM
mittee of arrangements, Messrs. W.
Fl. Koch, Thomas Hill, C. H. Walker,
John G. Dennison, James Walsh and
A. A. Rogers are busily engaged per
fecting plans for what promises to be
very enjoyable entertainment.

With purest love-light freighted
Her pretty face was very near;
stopped and fondly told her
That all the other fellows wished
They, too, might have chance to hold her
No Danger Nearer Hone.-The Dem
yer Neacs says "our Kansas contem-
porary ought to be quarantined. We
suspect it is afflicted with the foot and
mouth disease. Every time it opens
its mouth it puts its foot in it." This
would be impossible in Cumberland.
Death In the ROad.-As we 90 to
