S. Denison, on Wednesday, October 15, 1890, at the home of her mother in this city. The ceremoay was performed by Rev. Tt. Weikman, with none but the relatives of the family pres- ent, and the happy couple departed for their fulure home, St.

George Weller. a most estima ble lady, who has been assisting her brother-in-law on the Agriculturist in this city, returned to her eastern home perfectly disgusted with some of the persons with whom she came in contact in the performance of her duties. A man who will take advantage of the necessities of the wife of a deceased brother is not entitled to the respect of decent people. A young man who has very respectable sisters who tommendably earn a living by working out, took offense at a recent local item in the Agrieultur-ist bemeaning the hired girl in general, and he proceeded on Monday to speak his sentiments in the presence of the editor of that patent-medicine sheet, when he was tired bodily. The yocng man was well steamed up, and ought to have been allowed time to give the editor a few pointers as to the proper treatment of the average hired girl.

AMUSEMENTS. Biodboll Flowers' comedy company opened a week's engagement Monday night in the opera house with "Esmeralda." Every seat in the house was filled and over fifty persons were standing in the gallery as many more on the ground floor. The company is an excellent one and the hearty appiause they received on the opening was well deserved. F. Golightly Hubbard, as "Old Rogers," was the favorite from the start and the assistance he received from his side partner, F.

Howes, who played "Dave," was the finest wo have ssen for many a day. They are both born comedians. MihS Helena Secor, in the title role. rendered her part in excellent style, and elicited great applause from the large audience. Miss Jennie Nichols made a decided hit as "Nora Des mond." Miss Jennio Bowen playid "Mrs.

Rogers," in a most exemplary and pleasing manner. Charlie Mc-Elhaney has the ability of making a first class actor, and the part he took as "Arthur Eastbrook," was excellent in every particular. Take the company all round and it will be a hard matter to find an aggregation of people who are so universally liked wherever they go as Brodboll Flowers' Comedy Co. Every member of the company is a lady or gentleman as the case may both on and- off th stage. The orchestra connected with the troupe is without exemption, considering its size, the hnrst that ev-r visiter! this city.

A gaod rain fell on last Sunday night, thoroughly soaking the ground, and doing the immense acreage of fall wheat sown in this yalley a great deal of good. The fields look green and healthy.

S. cavalry who camped here a few weeks ao, again struck camp last Sunday afternoon on the railroad grounds immediately east of the city, and they had a wet time of it. There were 360 men, besides as many horses, and the camp presented a lively appearance. Although it was a damp afternoon hiany of our citizens visited them. The president's assistant secrttary declined to send the chief executive on to Wamego on a chicken hunt while on his western trip although he had a pressing invitation.

He was not aware, perhaps, of the keen qualities of Sam's setter. Had Phil Peirce and Sam De-weese got President Harrison out on our extensive prairies, and nary a chicken in sight, who would the joke have been on Sam, Phil or the dog? We notice that, upon a urogram of the Christian Endeavor, E. A. Weller has selected for his "theme of thought of discussion," as an old divine used to put it, the subject of "Helping our Brethren." February 15, 1891, is the date upon which he will elucidate. He may know how to "help a brother," but he's no "great shucks" at helping a widowed sister.

The Times advises him to thoroughly study both sides of the subject, so that he may be able to help a brother" (or a sister). "Man's inhumanity to man has made countless, numbers mourn." How would this do for Weller's next subject? At Lkach's Opeka House, Wamego, MONDAY, OCTOBEI120, 1800. at 7 o'clock, p. ni. Music by Wamego Band and Wamego Ladies Orchestra.
