crop.

Strong City Republican: A survey
has been made by Santa Fe civil en-
gineer for the location of stock yards
on the Lantry switch west of Fol
creek.
From Osawatomie: The frame for
the new railroad shops is raised, and
the building of them is progressing
rapidly. The Missouri Pacific railroad
company will let the contract for the
building of brick depot here within
two weeks.
Wichita Eagle: It is authorItatlvely
stated in railroad circles that the Santa
Fe have already approved of the plans
for a new freight depot, to be large
enough to accommodate their business,
and IN its construction to be in keep
ing with their new passenger depot.
EIDorado Republican: A passenger
train carrying mail will be put on the
Newton branch of the Missouri Pacific.
It will start from Mcpherson in the
evening and connect with the Kansas
City express at 1890 at this place.
This will take the mail off the branch
accommodation and make one less
Kansas City mail per day for FL
Dorado.
Leon Indicator: It is said that the
work of widening the Frisco roadbed
has begun at Augusta, and that one
man has the contract to do the work
from Burton to Monet, Mo. 1t is to
be full five feet outside the rail on each
side. This would seem to indicate
transfer of the through business from
the Santa Fe, and eventually double
track. 1t certainly means an increase
in the track force in this vicinity for
the season.

tends to open up store in this city on

president OF the national alliance, Ralph
Beaumont, and other prominent MEM

cocxREIL ON SILVER.

In discussing the conference report on the
port indicated the preference for a single
gold standard, and that the secretary of the
treasury would under the dangerous discre-
ton given him, redeem all legal tender notes
in gold. Under this proposed bill the secre-
tary could, and would drive the country to
part with all its gold, and would lock up
every silver dollar in the vaults of the treasury.
The bill means practical cessation of silver
coinage after July, 1891.

LlNCOLNS MELANCHOLY
Els Sympathetic Nature and His Earrv
Misfortunes.

Els sympathetic Nature and His EarIv
Misfortunes.
Those who saw much Of Abraham Tinco,n
during the later years of his life, were great.
ly impressed with the expression of nro-
found melancholy his face always wore in
repose.
Mr.. Lincoln was of peculiarly sympathet-
ic and kindly nature. These strong charac-
teristics influenced, very happily, as it
proved, his entire political career. They
would not seem, at first glance, to be effi-
cient aids to political success; but in the
peculiar emergency which Lincoln, in the
providence of God, was called to meet. no
vessel Of common clay could possibly have
become the ''chosen of the Lord.n
Those acquainted with him from boyhood
knew that early griefs tinged his whole
life with sadness. His partner in the
grocery business at Salem, was ssUncle'
Billy Green, of Tallula, ILL.,, who used at
night, when the customers were few. to
hold the grammar while Lincoln recitcd his
lessons.
1t was to his sympathetic ear Lincoln told
the story of his love for sweet Ann Rut-
ledge; and he, in return, offered what COM
fort he could when poor Ann died, and Lin
coins great heart nearly broke.
"After Ann died. says 'sUnclen Billy,
"on stormy nights, when the wind blew the
rain against the roof, Abe would set thar in
the grocery, his elbows ON his knees, his
face in his hands, and the tears runnin'
through his fingers. l hated to see him feel
bad, an I'd say, ABE don't cry;' an he'd
look up an say L can't help it, Bill, the
rains fallin' on her,"
There are many who can sympathize with
this overpowering grief, as they think of a
lost loved one, when ''the rains fallin' on
her," What adds poignancy to the grief
some times is the thought that the lost one
might have been saved

Corona, L. l., a builder, who writes June IS,

There was little ceremony about it ;
/ a squad would ride up to a mansion,
go at once TO the barns, and take horses

400 of the regiment were mounted,

One morning I took breakfast with q

and drank from gilt china. The plan

er. She burst into tears, and felt so
badly that I reproached myself for
asking the question. She said they
were very happy before the war; they
I. were wealthy, and had no care. Her
husband had voted against secession,
but joined the Confederates when the
war began, and now all was sorrow
and trouble.
