C. Times. Paola, Dec.7 17. -The great military drama, the "Union Spy," was represented on the Stage by the Paola Rifles and ama teurs of the city, under the management of CoL E. B.

Temple, to an unusually large and attentive" audience. The plot of this famous play is founded in the military maneuvers in the vicinity of Shlloh, Tenn. The play itself, when read in the light of memory of the great fratricidal struggle abounds in pen pictures of thrilling incidents and hor-rorors in which the heart mingles its sym pathies and is agitated with all the hopes and fears that could exasperate in battle, or gloom the sanctuary of home and fireside. But in the rendition, of this play last evening, there was an additional life, and natural real it in the allegorical tableaux, denounce ments, strucrjrles. and the representation of 9 a.

home, battlefield, and the horrors of prison life, in which the audience was affected throughout with the most passionate feeling. Communicated. Windsor, 1st 1879. Editor Gazette: Denis Kearney is still flaunting his opinions to the world of sand lotters among which he moves, and Kalloch is again able to make speeches and preach a Thanksgiving sermon, and still the world moves on. We have just had the second rain of the TI season, it Degimung on naay evening ana raining steadily until this (Monday) evening.

I suppose about 4 or 5 inches have fallen. making about fourteen inches for the season. The average rain fall here is from 36 to CO inches. This is the busy season of the year, with the farmer, in California, plowing and sowing. A good many have already made such seeds as onion, beet lettuce, raddish, turnips, WTe have fresh vege tables all the year round, but there are two principal gardening seasons, fall and spring.

We have had frost and a little ice; ice forming several nights to an inch in thickness, and we will still have more frost A great portion of this county is gravelly so the roads do not get very muddy, but in some portions of the State they are almost impassable. Sweet potatoes, and almost all descriptions of fruits are still in market This is one of the greatest fruit producing counties in the State. The winery here in Winsor took in this season over 800 tons of grapes, making about 75,000 gallons of wine. The school examination in San Francisco and Oakland was stopped before it was through, on account of fraud, the questions having been sold again a young lady was discovered in the examination room with answers to some of the questions written on her cuffs. There will probably be an exami nation under the New Constitution in January.

We now have twelve hundred extra teachers and expect to have 1,200 more next year. Califobjtcan. Recorders Office. The following is a list of the conveyances of real estate filed in the office of the Register of Deeds since the 10th inst Geo. D.

He comes to our city under a shower of encomiums from the press of every town and city in which this war drama has been performed.

From personal observation of the Colonel as an instructor, we would pronounce him first-class, as will every one else after the presentation of this soul stirring play, next Monday night. fPaola Spirit. Tbis play will be presented at the American Hall during the holidays. Some of our citizens were at Paola this week to see the play as presented at Paola. It was presented for three nights drawing crowded houses every night.

The citizens of Paola as well as those who were present from Olathe were delighted with the play. On Monday morning about half past eight o'clock a neat story and a half dwelling house situated one block east of the Ft Scott depot was burned. The house was the nrooertv of a a "VY. H. Cole, formerly ticket agent at this tuarc, mm us wcumea vy yjnp-u siewarx ana family.

The fire originated from a defective flue. At one time there were three men on the roof pouring on water with a good prospect of extinguishing the flames, when some one in the crowd called to them to come down, that the roof was falling in. The re-result was that they came down and the names gained such headway that they could no longer be controlled. No article of value was burned, but much of the furniture was ruined by throwing it out of the house. A silk dress and several articles of jewelry were missing, supposed to have been stolen.

The defendant was tried at Olathe the same evening, found guilty and sentenced to ten days imprisonment and to pay a fine of $10 and costs.

A lew davs asro. a mend, nanaed me a sample of cloth from the store of Charley Hayes, in east Olathe, which I examined very carefully whithJI a microscope, and compared with other samples, and exposed to the inspection of better judges. It is the. clear wooled cloth and.

if I am not mistaken, the best banrain that I have met with for many years. See our club rates with the leading Western papers. Tuesday a complaint was made betore a Justice of this city, that a certain party had been guilty of petty larceny. The defendant happened to be in town at the time and in about five minutes appeared without process, and entered a nlea of aruiltv. He was fined mt and costs he immediately went out procured the money, paid the amount in full, and departed, a poorer, and, it is to be hoped, a wiser and a better man.

Soon after starting our paper we called attention to the danger of leaving matches where children could get them. A few days ago, a child fouryears old expressed his pref- ferenee to another dace to live, and ins in- a tention of burning the house. No attention was paid to it vet a dav or two later he got a match and started a blaze among some pieces of clothing that would have burned the house sure enough, if it had not been detected. Another very dangerous practise is that of throwing coal oil on fuel in kindling fires Even to the person who understands it well enough to use it safely, the habit is pewii cious for persons then who don't understand it and children will use it and distressing accidents will occur. Two little erirls near Egerton, both lost their lives by using oil in starting a fire.

We will not undertake to describe the conditions under which volatile oils are dangerous, but rather insist that no such use should be made of it Dealers, in order to show that their oil will not explode will pour it out and set it on the fire this is dishonest trick some oils are safer than others, vet all volatile oils are dangerous. The Public Schools. The BoaTd of Health, of the city of Olathe, Viftv? rm-iTrw-TW tn the Board of Edu- cation to close the public schools for a short time, we, out of deference to the opinion of said Board, have decided to give the school a vacation. Had we been governed by our own best judgment alone, we would not have taken this action. But where a board of eminent and competent physicians, duly appointed to make investigation and report upon the presence and character of eontageous diseases in our city, do make a report and couple therewith a recommendation, it would be presumptuous upon our part to disregard it And while we believe the present alarm is, to a very great extent needless and unnecessary, yet in order to be upon the safe side and out of respect to the recomendation of the Board of Health, the public schools of our citv will have vacation until Monday, Jan.

Military Company. At the meeting of the Company on last Friday evening twelve new members enlisted, making the total number in the company at this date 64. The committee to confer with CoL Temple reported that they hadmadearrangements with the Colonel to play "The Union Spy" in Olathe immediately after the close of his engagement at Paola. The committee ex-pect to be able to present the play during the holidays. A telegram was received from Mrs.

St John thanking the members of the company for naming it for her, but declining the honor, and suggested that it be called the Kansas Guards, or Olathe Bifies. Three cheers was given for Mrs. St John and a vote was taken on the choice of names, resulting in calling the company the Olathe Bifies. Mr. J.
