A FORMER LEXINGTON GIRL.

The INTELLIaENoER is proud to note
the success as an actress of Mrs. Ine7
Simons Dalton, nee Simons, who appeared
at the Coates, in Kansas City, in the opera
Nanon. This was presented by amateur
talent under the direction of Prof. Dec 81,
q noted baritone vocalist of Kansas City,
and who has received favorable notice
abroad. The reporter, who knew Mrs
Dalton, when, as a girl, she lived in Lex
ington, is proud to note her success in
histrionic role.
We produce a clipping from the Kansas
City Journal, concerning her appearance
as Nanon, the hostess OF the Golden
Lamb: "The title part was very agree
ably taken by Mrs. Simons-D Dalton, who
will be remembered as the soubrette OF
"Gasparone." Mrs. Dalton's voice has
enlarged considerably since her last ap-
pearance. Her dramatic representation oil
the character, however, was much more
advanced than would ave been expected
She is, furthermore, a pretty Nanon, and
that counts for much"

0 sCHEMING TO ROE.

The oddities and national banker.
showed their claws in congress las
week. They proposed to do away witt
all laws recognizing silver as a money
metal, and subtitute q law that will in
crease the national bank circulation
SIS, 0O0, 900.
Scarce money is always dear money,
AS the volume of circulating medium
is decreased down goes the price of every
barrel of pork, bushel of wheat and bale
of cotton the hog raiser, farmer and cot
ton planter produce.
The national banker would strike out
$50, 900 900 of our annual monetary in
crease and substitute $15, 900 900 of ma
tional bank nates-less than TWENTY-FIVE
cents per capita-a net annual loss to
the people of $50, 900 900, entailing still
greater money stringency, sending the
prices of farm products to a still lower
figure.
But the thing does not stop there. TO
secure this paltry increase of $4,000, 900
of national bank notes and decrease of
$50, 000, 900 of silver ~notes-which are
still better-the government would be
compelled to issue $40, 900 900 Of bonds.
These would be made payable, principle
and interest in gold, hence more expense
and additional debt. All, but it's tight
stringst the peoples money masters are
drawing them in.

MR.. BILL.

Representative Miller, of LAFAYETTE
county, is strongly urging his bill which
provides that railroad companies shall
not engage in any other business. The
special object is to prevent railroads
from operating coal mines and grain
elevators. Such measures are snmptuary
in their effect vicious Ia their nature and
un.democratic in the extreme. Mr..
Miller and his little bill should be
promptly squelched.-Malta Bend Qui
Vive.
Now Honey, there's where you are
slightly off the track. MIR. Miller's bill is
in strict harmony with our state consti-
tuition. That constitution was made by
a democratic convention, submitted to
the democratic people Of a democratic
state and carried by democratic votes.
Moreover it Is in substance similar to 0
law enacted by a previous Legislature
(democratiel only that n forgot all
about a penalty clause, or from sympa-
thy with the lobby emasculated it. Mr..
Miller bill ought to and will be passed.

WHAE WILL, RE- ASKED FOR

The Independence Sentinel contains a
synopsis of the bill that will be presented
to the General Assembly for it's favorable
action, by a committee appointed by the
third class n kindred cities convention
which was held at Jefferson City recently:
"The measure is practically a new char
ter for cities of the third class and has
been carefully discussed. 1t contains 1875
sections.
AS this bill will apply to this city it's
provisions are very important to US. 1t
is generally understood hat the legisla-
ture will Immediately pass the bill as
recommended.
One of the important sections provides
for the council to ave full power over
sidewalks and streets. The council can
repair sidewalks, order curblng and pave
streets as in it's judgment may seem prop
er and the work must be paid by special
tax bills which become a lien upon the
property. AS 1t Is now the city car hard
ly make any improvement without the
consent of all property owners concerned
and Is consequently almost helpless be-
fore bad sidewalks, no curbing and muddy

AT last the rigid hand of winter seems

AT last the rigid hand of winter seems
disposed to relax its hold, and each sue
ceeding storm becomes less severe. The
cold wave that comes with icy breath is
less Icy, and the MONDAY sun has within
its beneicent ray a touch Of comfort
and the caress of spring. The peach
takes on the glow Of purple, the orange
hedge row a thriftier gray. The water
in the river is becoming restless, be-
tokening a break up, and the frozen
earth begins to yield to melting sun
baths. The birds are slow to come this
year. butan occasional twitter announces
the ayaunt couriers OF the feathered
visitor, and the armies of blue birds,
robbins and other favorites will soon be
swarming the groves and eopse. Spring
il coming-and right royalty will we
welcome his advent.

%CLEyELAND'S CABINET.

Mr.. Cleveland. it is announced on
seemingly good authority, has appointed
Judge Gresham, a republican, as MS
secretary of state When the lNTELLI-
eENcER first read the report 1t refused
to believe it, but the reiteration comes
so positively that further doubt is hardly
tenable.
The report of this act by Mr.. Cleve-
land has set a good many democrats TO
kicking. But why should they obJectt
The making of his cabinet, i'll his own
wav, of such material as suits himself,
is the president-elect's prerogative and
is not to he put in question.
Hence, whatever Mr.. Cleveland does
in this behalf is his own and nobody
else's business.
Besides, the democratic party has put
Mr.. Cleveland upon a pinnacle of per
sonal greatness that lifts him above
criticism and puny complaint. So high
that wen the high jipks kicks of Buck
Killgore, who broke down Tom Reeds
doors with II blow of his aggressive
hoof, would fall far short of reaching
even Mr.. Cleveland's shin bones.
Then why not Gresham? He is a
typical American, a tariff reformer, a
believer in ''sound money" and a mar
of very excellent attainments. True he
supported Grant for the third term. He
