M. PALMER, Register. Patterns for 1887 just received. There was a quiet drawing last night of a $6.50 shaving case at the New York restaurant. A great number of tickets had been sold, but there were only 10 numbers drawn from the bag.

The greased pig race was not very exciting as his pigship was not inclined to test his speed on account of the hot weather. He was too easily captured to suit the great throng of spectators, who collected to witness the race. No one was to blame, however, but the pig--and owing to the hot showed more sense than hogs usually do. The slippery pole was too much for the fellows made several vain attempts to ascend it but all to no purpose. It was a telegraph pole, the large end up and would have been difficult to climb if it had not been greased.

The telegraph operotor should have been there with his climbers. One of the fellows who tried it exhibited a remarkable hugging capacity. HAIL STORM. A severe hail and rain storm visited us yesterday about 7 o'clock p. m.

The hail stones were about the size of bird's eggs, but they fell thick and fast, drifting up in great windrows along the street like new mown hay in the meadow. After the storm abated, the boys amused themselves by converting the hail stones into snow balls and chasing each other about the streets like school boys at recess in midwinter. We fear the corn has been damaged some but hope not. One good feature of Kansas hail storms, they only obcupy a small belt in their gyrations. NEW CHURCH.

The members of the Church of Christ, have erected a magnificent temple for worship in this city. It is by far the finest church edifice in the county. We are not able to give it's exact dimensions but it's seating capacity will accommodate a vast assembly. The Sabbath school will occupy the basement, which is especially designed for that purpose, with excellent light, ventilation and all modern conveniences. A large fountain is constructed near the pulpit, where the ordnance of baptism can always be conveniently administered.

The church is located in the northwest part of town, on an elevation that commands a grand view of the surrounding country. Rev. N. B. Alley is the pastor, under whose supervision the temple of worship has assumed shape and the work pushed to completion.

This church has a large representation here and the fine building which they have erected is a grand 1 monument of their enterprise and good taste. The church will be neatly and appropriately furnished and ready for dedication in a short time, due notice of which will appear. Prices very Low.
