Scott Monitor, June 7: Ed, Costello has been offered the job of laying iron on the Girard and Topeka rail road and will leave here to-day to mako Lis engagement with the company. As the local freight was switching at this place Tuesday morning, the hind wheels of a car heavily loaded with sand jumped tlie track, making total wreck of the switch. A boy who had been in the habit of riding on freight trains when they were 8witcluug in Ft Scott, fell and had his leg cut off not long since. Let this be a warning to the boys of Walnut. Quite a largo, number of strangers, many of them business men looking up good cliaucea for investing, have been in town this week.

Tho certainty of the Topi ka Walnut road being built is already having its effect. Mr. M. Stanley gave ua a remarka ble instance of the growth of wheat this year. He threw a heavy board ten feet loDg with the flat sido down on top of a piece of wheat on his farm, and 30 strong nftstiff wci.e the straws they held the board up.

Messrs. Babb Gaylord, of Girard, huve rented Rountree's store building, and will put in a stock of groceries. Their stock will not bo large, but new and fresh. They are worthy of a hearty weh come tg our town and a fair share of the patronage of; the community. They will be ready for business between the 15th and 20th of this month.

There is no longer any doubt about the completion of N. T. I. M. railroad.

A full set of hands, have been at work near Girard doing some unfinished, grading, and as soon as that is complete, the road-bed. will be ready for the iron to the Stposljp. county line, one half mile west. Walnut The ties and. rails are already.

Vjeing laid. It is also a. settled fact that Walnut will be the largest to-wn and best trading point between Ft. Scott and Parsons. Town property is already in demand and strangers looking for a home will travel a good piece before finding a better place to invest.

On Friday of last week the following ladies and gentlemen went on a fishing excursion Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Freeman, Rev.

C. H. ilcDermond, wife and family, Dr. and Mrs. H.

E. Rakestraw, Mr. and Mrs. Jennings and son, Mrs. P.

A. Cummings, Mrs. O. Thompson, Mrs. P.

J. Leitzell and Mr. and Mrs. E. Green.

To say that all enjoyed themselves doaa not tell the half. The building of a camp for cooking of fish, tea and coffee and spreading out of such a grand good dinner made us all eat like tigers, but Dr. Rakestraw, Mr. Jennings and Rev. C.

H. took the cake. Oh such eaters. Well, all there is about it we will know who to leave home next time. solving.

NEW GOODS Less croquet playing on Sunday. Tho N.t T. M. train dafh into town. Tho man who has tho hardihood to contemplate fishing.

Both the Commercial and Star Hotels are crowded. Is there not somn danger in shooting with revolvers on tho street. In one year from this time Walnut will have double its preoont population. John Viets, of Ilepler, wants to sell out his stock of merchandise, and build a mill at that placo. Did you over meet a man who thought he knew everything? If bo, be ware of that man.

Uo will boro you to death. AVe hopo the new road will bo com pleted in time to enablo our Girard friends to conio over and help us cnthu.se on tho 4th. Tho market is not crowded with buf falo fish notwithstanding tho fact that parties took gunny-sacks and horse blankets with them to the ford the other night to carry tho "catch" homo. Every teacher who can possibly do so should attend the Normal which be gins at Girard, June 2Gth. No teacher eon afford to miss the excellent oourso of studies that wil bo peraued.

Osage Mission Journal, June 7th: Capt. AVaite will leave here to day for Girard. He informs us that track laying on the Topeka and Girard railroad will bo commenced to-morrow at tho latter place, and that tho cars will be running into Walnut by the 1st of July. The committee on making arrange ments for our 4th of July celebration met on Thursday night, but were not ready to report, They have written for a speaker but havo not (at tnis writing) received his reply. They have also written to secure a brass band.

AVe expect to havo tho full programme for next week. AVhat did yon say? Oh, yes, we will celobrate the 4th in the old fashioned style. A speech shall recount the glorious deeds of forefathers, and the declaration of independence stir up our patriotism. AVhon the small boy lets off a firecracker under onr chair wo can jump as high as we pleaso, in fact everything will be done in the regular order. The services of Justice Leitzell were called into requisition last Satur day to preside over a lawsuit with Mr.

Howe as plaintiff and Mr. J. St Clair as defendant. It appeared that the plaintiff had borrowed a bull from tho ttetendant, and was to.keep the bull for the use- of liim, until the 15th of this month. The defendant sold tho bull, and the plaintiff brought suit to recover damages, but as the defendant proved that he had re served the right to soil the bjiU, the case was decidqd in his favor I Last Friday evening Pete.

Georgq. came through town and had with-, him a ten-pound buffalo fiali which he showed to every one he met. He said he caught it down, at the rock ford in Walnut creek while it was trying to get through the rocks on its way down stream, and that there was any number of big ones there, which, could be easily caught as the water was low and the ford hard for them to get over. (Now Pete George lied and it was only his little "goak," as he caught. the fish in the Neosho.) Nothing more was needed to excite some of our prominent citizens to action.

So telling their wives to havo the frying pan3 greased for fish, they started for the ford, some taking pitchforks, some clubs, some one thing and some another. udge of their unutterable disgust when they reached the ford found it deep enough to float a young steamboat. They began to scent a large Norway rat and it dawned on them that they had been sold. Four masked men robbod tho Brook-field, bank of $9,000, on the 7th in st. An opposite your name indicates that we need money.

Wo hope you will kindly hand ua what you can very soon. We don't wish to bo exacting but we know many can pay us as well now as well aa any other time. The parties that carried off tho fish from the lVont of Freeman 's fitoLo thought they were playing a fiuo joko. But others looked at it differently and the joke might have proven "a fine" one, or it might have proven a fine of Live dollars and cobts.
