Eye1in Party at Lewls

a party of TIVE, ltyfve [insleyites
boarded No. , last Friday evening in
response to an Invitation from " /.
and Mrs. Ralph 8jdwell. and W
minutes later appeared 10 their host
on the platform at lewis. AS soon as
he re .overed -uffic -ntIyt inquire if
he train returni G to town was on
I'll Ne, le pil0t.l us to his i p"le, VIII re
we w-re received by Mrs. Ralph and
Miss Florence Bid we'll. and soon N tG e
to forget the fact hat we were Il long
way from home. In fact, before the
evening was over. we made up or
minds that it was a good place to
stay and that we did not really care
wlether the train -aine or not. We
Were delightful; entertained with
games, puzzles, colundrumS ,'tc.. u
til refreshments We're announced, when
even the literary member assumed an
expectant attitude, which was fully
justified by the results for a daintier
aud better served supper it would be
hard to ina yine.
Everything went we'll until someone,
in thoughtless moment, looked out
of the window and, seeing the head
light Of a locomotive, announced that
our train was coming, when, notwith-
STANDING the expostulati on of our host,
who assured us shat our train would
not come for half an hour, the guests
rose like flock OF quail and flew to
the staff on-and watched a freight
train pass by. However, our train
soon came and was boarded by so
noisy crowd that the conductor led
us off to one side and asked where we
We're taking them, and said that he
would recommend Ossawatomie.
In a few moments we were home again !:
that is, we thought We were, but a
closer investigate on developed the fact
that we were in Kinsley, but on the
wrong side of freight train. For
full hour we talked about that train,
trains in general aad the rights of the
people. 1t was finally agreed that a
vate of .censure might move it, as i;
had never moved Anything else. Ii
was tried and worked to charm, Civ
ing us an opportunity which we failed
not to acce"t.

~ h1NSlLEY GRAPHIC:
l am writing this from the city of
st. Petersburg, a place about as large
as Kinsley; principal business fish,
| oranges and pineapples, and, by the
way, We buy fish sixteen inches long,
fat and fine. dressed, delivered at the
house for 3 cents. Pineapples have
been shipped from this place weighing
fifteen pounds during past season.
and the :2dustry is rapidly charging.
l went out to look at an orange
grove a little while ago, The owner
told me he would have 5000 boxes.
One man last year sold his crop on
the trees for $1,000. So you see the
oranges are not all dead in Florida.
This locality is rs near frost proof
winter was not as severe as at Lemon
bay, seventy-fve miles south, where

OF this locality Mes>rs. Donnell &
Holman can give to you full informa-
ton. Here we have Tampa bay on
the east and the gulf on the west. The
soil is. of its kind, good--the oak land
preferable. The pineapples are grown
under one-half shade and the indust, Y
has bsea very profitable, about 5000
plants TO the acre, average about so
cents to each plant.
This place is high and healthy, and
is a great resort for winter tourists.
A goodly lot of invalids here, but all
imported. The west coast of Florida
has the softest air in the world. Ihave
known the place about four wears.
The erection of buildings has been
continuous since that time. Yellow
fever! Yes. that's so. One case sus-
pected at Port Tampa This is all that
have learned of this side of Kew
West, and that doubtful. ] am going
very soon to Lemon bay, where the
boating and fishing beats the world.
where the wind from the east comes
through the pine trees the livelong
night. bringing it's sweet balm to the
sleeper's breath. and in the day swings
to the gulf and porrs through the
passes hear.iy laden with ozone.
You have been having good erops
up there. bsys. Come down here and
