We understand there was a dance at the new hotel in, Willis just opened by r-Vi rn Timcl i nicrht. hut. so far as we can learn the dance was not largely uccessful. Mr. Guelieh fired a stalk, of celery of his own raising at us Saturday that measured four feet from tip to tip and was just as brittle and nice as could be.

It was the largest stalk we ever saw. a A.I, rohirnpil sf-rH from a few day's to Lincoia and Saline nmniiiij wlmrn ho lnnkin. at the UUV1 w- country with a view to purchasing a saw.

A sister of Mrs. J. F. Carr, who visited here some weeks ago but has since been in Missouri, has again returned to this place and brought the first persimmons we ever tasted. They were quite a curiosity to us, but we managed to cat two or three when presented by Mr.

Carr. The Young Mens Social Club will open the dancing season at the town hall on Thanksgiving night, Thursday, November 26th, with a grand social ball. Those who remember the pleasant times nt last season will be glad to welcome the resumption of those good times. 'Pa" and "Ma" say it's all a great big abbut their Kansas City trip, and that they don't want people to think they are ao blanked foolish and green as we made them out last week. Well.

we accept their apology and guarantee they or we won't do it again. Frank Groninger, son of the proprie tor of the Robinson mills, and Jim Payne.son of Capt. Payne.of Robinson, were over Tuesday with a load of buck wheat flour which they shipped from here to Atchison. They procured some orders for the flour from panics in this town. Will 1 rice, John Lyons and Frank Yewell left Monday night for Nemeha cpunty on a hunt.

They expected to bring back their game in a special car. and if there are any ducks or quail in that country that can be bought they will probably bring them. But what stories we shall expect to be gulled with on their return. Prof. Dunham, the noted musician and teacher, assisted by his wife and a Mr.

Harris.both excellent vocalists.will give a free concert in this place Mon day evening next, November 16th, with a' view to getting up a elass in music.

Somebody wants to know why it is so mean to cheat a printer.1 It was surmised by somebody that it was probably on account of their naturally innocent and trusting nature. Won't someone that knows please rise and explain? Happixess Bind. Sunday School entertainment. The entertainment given at the church Saturday evening for the benefit of the Sabbath school was well attended, and, considering the short time employed in getting up the program, it was a very good one and was quite enjoyable, consisting of songs, recitations, tableaux, etc. The pyramaid.with recitations by the little girls, Mr.

Barnes' living automatical figures, the songs by "Prof." Ebe and Miss Rohl, of Hiawatha, tho "Womans' Rights" to the Cross" tableaux, besides many other features, deserve special mention and were loudly applauded. The total receipts were something ov televen dollars, which will be an accej' -able addition to. the the school, for which those iu Sundance have the thanks of te uchers and scholars. We took a little trip to Atchison Friday morning and stopped with our friends Mr. and Mrs.

Miller at their elegant restaurant, opposite the Byram for dinner and supper. They are one of the finest and pleasantest couples in the State and their restaurant is a model in neatness aud tho bill of fare comprises everything in the market. Mr, Miller, we were sorry to learn.had been quite sick for a few days, but was able to be about again, and is now figuring on moving into more commodious quarters further up town, as his present location is aot half large enough for his business. The best meal, however, in the only twenty-five those visiting Miller's x-estaurant oaoe will alwaj-s stop there when in the city. Uncle Peter Berney informed us yesterday chat he found one of his cows ia a field about a half-mile from the house, which had been shot by some heedless hunter.

He was at a los3 to tell wbat was the trouble at first, but thought perhaps she had been kicked by one of the horses, and drove her to the house, where she died during the night. Upon skinning her shot was found in the wund, which was near the heart. This, Uncle Peter doesn't wish to believe was a wilful act, but it was certainly a very careless piece of business, and this not beinsr the first time he has had valuable property and stock destroyed in this manner, he will hereafter prohibit all hunting on his lands, post up notices to that effect and prosecute all trespassers. Caldwell Brown, from Leavenworth, brother of R. J.

Brown, the medicine man of that city is now with Dr. Johnson in the drug store. Mr. Brown is a druggist of sixteen years' experience, and contemplates becoming a partner with Dri Johnson. Ho will move his family here sometime this month.

'The store ia still undergoing repairs and rearrangement and begins to look bright and business like. Weather report by telegraph yesterday stated that we would have a blizzard here to-day and the way it starts in we judge it's coming, for the cold north wind, earrying fine snow flakes, creeps in through the doors and windows and crawls down a man's back bone in a fierce manner, and the' outlook seems very favorable for a regular old Vsnif ter." Josh Page, Henry Killion and Neal Cokely returned Wednesday of last week frm their western trip. They went over the Colorado line about fifteen miles, had a grand time, saw some of the finest country in the world.lived on qual.jacK rabbit and antelope, and came back looking as brown and hearty as young Indians.

He said he "be gos-horued if he cared; if she didn't have no more confidence in him she better hire a policeman to go round with her next time to see the sights." And that wasn't all he said either. He said that after what she had said to him he "couldn't feel that same love and affec tion for her that he once had" (you see he wasn't used to it.but it's nothing after getting used to these things) "and to soothe his harrowed feelings he would be dad binged if he didn't do something desperate," and he started out and banged the door almost off its hinges, but ma began to sing "Oh happy day that fixed my choice," and pa thought that meant him, (and I guess it did) and when he got ut to the barn he began to think about it, and pretty soon he came back as far as the wood pile and commenced chopping, but that didn't last long and he went up to the back door and asked ma "Ain't dinner most ready, or do you want a pail of water first?" and then the ice was broke, and things have gone smooth Kansas City has not been spoken of any more I want to go down there myself i some day and see the sights, but 1 shan't say anything about it until I am ready to go, for I can't bear to see pa and ma talk to each other the way they did, after living together and never having any trouble for almosf thirty m- years, it wouiu certainly prejudice us against rnarrriage and we would never make another proposal in our life.

Wedding mniTersary. Tuesday was fifteenth anniver sary of the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. B. F.

Henry, and some of the young people of the family, assisted by some of the neighbors, prepared for a genu ine surprise on them. Everything was gotten in readiness without a suspicion being excited until the friends began pouring in upon them to the number of twenty-five or thirty. At about seven o'clock the Rev. Casey, of Granada, was called upon to re-marry the couple, which was done in good style, they promising to love each other more and more "as long as they both shall live," and then, led by the bride and groom, all who could crowd around a large table adjourned to the kitchen and in dulged themselves until their eyes bulged out, when they were relieved by another and still another crowd, all, however, seeming to have small effect on the piles of good things prepared by the daughters, Lizzie and Delia, and the two nieces. Misses Phebe Henry and Ida Walton.

Then the merry party engaged in game and social wit and reparte until towards midnight, when all went home wishing Mr. and Mrs. Henry many happy returns of their anniversary. Following is a list of pres ents brought by the friends: Glass and silver butter-dish Mr. and Mrs.
