It is currently reported that Fred li Oaref 1 II number cf persons were in Elwards' barber shop, when some one outside threw an empty beer bottle and a note through the window, which came near to striking some of the persons, and within slew inches of the lamp, which were lit.

Had it struck the latter a dangerous conflagation might have ensued. -The note pur ported to come from the Knighis of Labor, and warned those inside to look out for the Knights, which that organization think is a slur cast at them and have offered a reward, as seen elsewhere, for the arrest and conviction of the parties. Whoever committed the act should severe ly punished, as great loss of both life and property might have ensued from it. Report of Little River Schools for the month of February, 1887. GRAMMAR ROOM.

R. Bond made a flying trip to Pittsburg, Kansas, leaving here last Saturday and returning Wed nesday, bringing his little grand daughter with him. He stopped off at Emporia, Kansas City and other says that nowhere except at Kansas City is there such a building boom as here at home. We suppose the last fact may be ac counted for by the fact that Little River buys goods in Kansas City, which keeps up the boom there. The general opinion of all who have visited different points this spring, is that Litte River is making more improvements than any of them.

We think that the state legisla ture would have found far better work to do than the changing of the name of St. John county, to the name of Logan county. It shows a spirit of party spite and a littleness of mind that we do not like to see exhibited. No matter what St. John did, so long as the names of counties remain, the persons after whom they were named having been rebels against the United States govern ment, let the name of one who rebelled against a party, or who be trayed a party, even, stand.

The name of St. John is certainly as hon orable as that of Davis, and many others who still hold like honors, after all others have been taken sway. Obituary. Died in Little River, Rice Kansas, March 3d, 1887. Mrs.
