Worlds Fair.

AS announced by bills printed the
first of the week, there will be a meet
} ing of the Allen County Horticultural
/ Society in lola at o'clock this after
noon at the court house. The Hon.
I X. W. Spar, of Lawrence, who is the
member of the Board of Managers of
the Kansas Columbian Exposition for
this district, will be here to meet with
the people, and organize an assOcia-
tion that will have for its object the
gathering of products from the crops
of 1892, TO be placed in the Kansas
building in Chicago. All who are in
terested in Allen county having
good show in Chicago are invited to
be present. Ladies are especially in
vited.
In this connection Mr.. Cunningham,
who has charge ofthe fund being rails
ed by Allen county, asks us to print
the following statement:
The whole amount of money sub
scribed to the Worlds Fair fund is
S242. 2l, of this, S19S,65 has been paid
in. S7S.46 was RENTED to the Treas
urer in Topeka when the subscription
was first started. The balance SI2O.2 %
is now in the bank ready to be sent
off. There is $3.50 still to be paid in.
Those who have subscribed and not
paid will help matters along if they
will call at the office of the County
Treasurer and pay at once as the
Board of Managers have called for
$40 of our share of the fund. We
will fall short of the amount needed I
as our share to complete the Kansas
building nearly one hundred dollars. Z
We will be glad if one hundred patri-
otto citizens will call and pay in this /
amount. WIN CUNNINGHAM, Treas.
We trust the meeting this afternoon
will be largely attended. Allen coun-
ty must not let the procession get

Obituary,

( Died, at Kincaid, Kan, Jan. Is, 1872,
DIR. y. y. Allen.
The deceased was born in Seneca
county, y. Y, Aug. 1924. When
young his parents moved to Ohio,
from there to Wisconsin. He began
the practice of medicine in 1S49 at
GAINESVILLE, Illinois. In 1852 he with
many others went to California and
for four years followed his profession
there. Returning east to Illinois he
practiced in Greene and Jersey coun-
ties. In June 1859 he again came
west and settled in what is now known
as Usage township. The last year of
his life was spent at Kincaid.
When but Is years of age he made
profession of religion and lived until
his dOath what he protested in his
youth. He was one of the
founders of the Usage Valley Bap-
fist church, the church being located
on his farm. 1t is useless to under
take to tell of his good traits of char
acter and of his life service to friends
and church. The beautiful passage
of scripture expresses more than we
can say. "Blessed are the dead which
die in the Lord from hencef0rth. Yea,
saith the Spirit, that they may rest
from their labOrs; and their works do
follow them
Died-At his home in Kincaid,
Kansas, January 22, John Allen, son
of DIR. y. \. and Elizabeth Allen.
Had Johnnie lived until the 29th of
the month he would have been %
years of age. Johnnie was great
sufferer from the dread disease con-
sumption and for two years had been
almost constantly confined to his
home, but no one ever heard him MUIR
muir or complain and for every one
that called on him he had a pleasant
smile and kind word. Johnnie !
made a profession when II years of
age.
His father passed on just four
nays before him. Two brothers and a |
mother are left to mourn the irrepair-
able loss. b.
