AIOTHEK SUPfcfclOK. CENTRAL FEMALE COLLEGE assembly was called to order bv Prof. J. D. Bawser of Kansas City, who deliv ered a very able and comprehensive address on slavery in the West Indies.

The address was iu every respect worthy of the occasion and of the speaker. It showed deep thought, much learning and careful preparation and was delivered in a forcible and eloquent manner. He was neartily applauded at the course of bis Prof. W. J.

Johnson, of Topeka. was next introduced. He spoke about 45 minutes on slavery in the United States, and was interrupted by frequent and hearty applause, and was warmly congrat ulated at the close of Ills remarks. Dr. Henderson, of Chicago, and Prof.

Bald win, of Missouri, followed with short, but eloquent addresses, and succeeded in highly entertaining the listening multitude. At five o'clock the excursionists from Leavenworth and Kansas City began to depart, and by six o'clock, Ottawa was again in possession. The entertainment of the day was a grand success, and nothing of an unpleasant nature occurred to mar the pleasure of the occnsion. Rev. A.

J. Russell, of Ottawa, informed our reporter that his church cleared about one hundred dollars in the venture. We were unable to learn whatwas realized by the other churches interested. At night a grand entertainment was given at the roller coaster, and an immense crowd gathered, and had a pleasant time. Otta wa leu at 11 clock, and Topeka crawled out of the corner and had a high time un til next day at noon, when she boarded the "Cannon ball" for home.

A GRAND EMANCIPATION, CELE BRATION AT SALINA, AUGUST 4, 1885. The celebration was carried on during the day in the park at Salina, and it is one of the most beautiful parks in the state. The celebration was well attended by both white and colored people, and all seemed to enjoy themselves. They had all kinds of refreshments that were suit able for the occasion. Two o'clock was the time for the speak ing to begin.

The people were called to the stand by Rev. J. W. Lewis, pastor of the A. M.

E. church, and in a few brief and eloquent remarks, he stated the ob ject of the celebration. The first exercise ou the progranuno, was singing by the Glee Club of Salina. The club did themselves great credit in rendering the piece unit tuey sung. Second was the reading of the Emancipation Proclamation of the slaves of the United States by Miss Holly, of Salina.

Miss Holly is a very fine reader and attracted much attention from the audience while she was reading. Third Hon. T. L. Bond, an eminent lawyer of Salina, address the audience.

Mr. Bond is a forcible logital and eloquent speaker and highly entertained the audience while he was speaking. He spoke of many interesting things pertaining to the past history of the colored race, and their future prospects in the United States. He wound up on woman sutferage and seems to be a great favorite among the ladies. Fourth John M.

Brown of the Tribune-Recorder was introduced to the audience and spoke at length on the past history of the race, (pride,) and the present demands of the hour. That ended the programme for the day. At nignt the A. M. E.

church and the oeconu xapnsi cuurcn gave a grana entertainment at the A. M. E. church, also the E. church gave a grand entertainment at the Salina skating rink.

Both places were crowded with people and every body seemed to enjoy themselves. we musi say inai aauua is one oi tne finest towns in the state and has a fine surrounding country, and as good people as live on earth. We must not fail to mention the hotly contested game of base ball between the Western Star Club of Salina and the McPherson 9. The Western Star Club took the McPherson boys in. The game stood 13 to 22.

The Western Star Club of Salina says that they are going to call for the Topeka lirowns soon, lliey think that they can take the boys m. The editor of the Tribune-Recorder got a large number of subscribers at Salina, and was never better treated his life than by the people of Salina. in EMPORIA ITEMS. Emporia Aug. Mr.

Returns are yet due from twenty-six counties. Tables showing the area of the several crops by counties, cannot, therefore, be prepared at this, the usual date for pub lishing such information. winter wheat. At the date of mailing to this office the reports of correspondents, imon which the following estimates are based, for little threshing had been done, hence but tew reports from threshers.

The limited number received, however, clearly indicate that in quantity, generally, and vitality, many localities, the crop will not come up to the estimate placed upon it, by the best judges, before any threshing had been done. Assessors' returns from eleven conn- ties since the date of our last report show an increase in the erea harvested over the estimate for June, for the coun ties reporting, or about 100.000 acres. This increase in ucreage, will not, however, compensate for the shortage resulting rrom the decrease estimated from the yield per acre, which is now placed at a very small fraction less than ten bushels, a decrease us compared with the renort ot the board for the month ending June 20 of about one bushel per acre. i) rom the latest and best information received, I estimate the area of winter wheat harvested in this state tliis year, to acres, aud place the average yieia per acre, in round numbers, at ten bushels. Probable total product.

9.84H.- 040 bushels. spring wheat. Reports just receive! indicate no ma terial change, either in era or condition. since the date of our last report. Probable product, 1,250,000.

CORN. This great, and to the people of Kansas the most important cereal, is reported to be in fine condition. The backward and unfavorable condition of April and Mav. have been fully compensated for by the very propitious weather of the last thirty days. I can call to mind no period in the history of the state, when a more marked improvement has been made in the pro gress of any crop than has been witnessed in the growth and development of corn within the month covered by the report.

One month ago the general condition of the crop, as compared with last year, was found to be eighty-two, while the reports for July, from which this report is com piled, show a condition of niuetv-eurht. an improvement of sixteen points during the mouth. Official returns aud reliable estimates from counties not yet reported bv assess ors, place the area of corn ut about acres. Probable product, should fav orable conditions continue, 198,000,000 bushels. oats.

Estimated area the same as reported last month; condition not so good; probable products 29,000,000 bushels; a short age, as compared with last year, of 87,000 bushels. RYE. But little threshing has been done. Re ports generally indicate a short crop, and estimates as yield differ so widely as to preclude the possibility of any satisfactory estimate as to product at this time.

The Union Pacific Kail Road has issued au order which went into effect yesterday reducing the number of working hours in its Omaha shops from ten to eight hours a day. and cutting down the work on salarys to four hours, the same reduction to be made in the shops at Kansas City. There is considerable dissatisfaction among the men, about fifteen hundred of whom are affected by order iu Omaha. The com pany claims it had to reduce, and rather than to discharge large number of men it concluded to reduce the number of working hours, so all could have employ ment. They cut amounts to about 20 per cent.

Ottawa, July 10. 1885. We left Topeka via A. T. S.

F. R. R. on the morning of Friday Aug. 7th, and reached Wyandotte, at a boot 10:30, here we found the political pot boiling up and running over, the occasion being the meeting of the County Republican Con vention.

Hon. U. A. Dudley, the pride the colored people of the city and county of Wyandotte, was a candidate for register of deeds. His name was presented to the convention by Prof.

Sher man, Superintendent of the city schools Wyandotte, in an able and very com plimentary speech, paying a high tribute to Mr. Dudley as a man and a gentle man and to tke olored voters for their faithfulness to the republican party and to the republican principles. Dr. J. 11.

Brown in an able and most eloquent speech, seconded the nomination of Mr. Dudley. His speech was listened to with strict attention. The doctor rtainly did credit to nimseir and the race. On the first ballot Mr.

Dudley received thir ty votes which were sixteen short of the reqi-ired number to nominate. It was then evident that the white republicans were not voting for him, as there were thirty colored delegates in the convention and all or nearly allot them votedsol idly for him. On the 2d, bullot Mr. Dudley lost three votes and his chief white competitor was nominated. The an nouucement produced great dissatisfac tion among the colored delegates aud a large number of white republicans, and they were loud in their denunciation of the injustice and treachery which had been manifested.

The colored delegates had been deceived sacred pledges had been broken to such an extent that the colored voters of the city and county consider themselves lustined iu reputia hug the ticket nominated and in calling a convention and nominating a ticket of their own; consequently a meeting was held, a county central committee selected and that committee issued a call for a convention of colored men to meet in the city of Wyandotte on Saturday Aug. 22d. for the purpose of nominating a full ticket of colored men for the county offi ces. Mr. Dudley advised against such a course, but the people were too indignant to listen to any advice in that direction an besides many of the leading white republicans of the city and county advise them to take just sucn a step, and admin istrate a severe and lasting rebuke to such treachery and injustice.

We have been invited and will try and be present at the convention. After spending a very enjoyable time as tne guest of the Hon, G. A. Dudley and among the most hospitable citizens of Wyandotte, we boarded the mcrnmg train for this place. 1 he crops everywhere look poor and need rain, and silently but surely they are saying to the poor people "times will be hard, food will be dear; prepare for We reached here just in time to attend the memorial services in honor of Gen.

'Grant, which were held in Forest park, the finest park in this state. The exercises were solemn, grand, and impressive, a fit tribute to America's greatest hero. Sunday morning we at tended services at tne A. M. K.

church, and listened to a sermon byKev. A. Russell. It was plaiu, practical, forcible and impressive. We also attended the ounday school in the afternoon.

It is a fine school and well conducted. From this we went to the Baptist Sunday school, which is also a very hue school, and well conducted; both schools are a credit to the place. We addressed the Baptist school, speaking about 30 minutes to a very attentive audience of children and old people. At night, through the courtesy of Rev. Russell, we addressed the A.

THE FOURTH AT LAWRENCE- Tne or August was celebrated in Eand style by the colored citizens of awrence, Leavenworth, Kansas City, Wyandotte, Ottawa and neighboring towns and cities.

The morning trains from Topeka took in quite a delegation, but at 9:45, the train appeared from Ottawa with about 300 aboard, which threw the handful from Topeka, in the shade. At 10:45 Leavenworth appeared upon the scene with about one hundred pleasure seekers. Ottawa had complete possession of the town and Bismarck grove, and the happy souls from there began to pride themselves on being the Iwsses from the boss town in the state. Leavenworth and Topeka kept mum, but secretly in their souls they were watching, wuiting and hoping that Wyandotte and Kansas City would appear with sufficient force to down Ottawa. At 11:45 the long looked for train hove in sight with nine coaches, bearing about eight hundred souls, headed by the Kansas City band.

Ottawa, somewhat crestfallen, stood with open mouth and eyes, and beheld the sight; while Leavenworth and Topeka crowded together behind one of the shade trees, and shook their sides with laughter, because Ottowa was beaten. Musio wus furnished by the Telephone Band of Lawrence and the Concert Bund of Kansas City, They are both fine bunds and are a credit to their respective cities. The Telephone Band however, is without doubt the bet ter band of the two. It is a young bund a mere child three yeurs old, but it is un doubtedly the beBt colored bund iu the state, and one of the best in the west. The keys stick to their musio and keop up constant and regular practice which account for their great and rapid improvement.
