Fisukr. About twelve o'clock, last Saturday night, as some gentlemen were passing along near the railroad junction, they heard a man calling lustily for htlp, and upon approaching the spot, they found an individual who claimed to have been seized with a fit, and while prostrated, was robbed of 11.40, all the money he possessed.

Brace is book keeper for C. C. Curtis and we trust this pleasing event will not incapacitate hira for duty. The mother and child are reported doing well. Several suspicious looking characters were seen looking around the city, late Saturday night.

In view of the fact that Bella Plaine and other towns aro being worked by crooks.it would be well to keep a sharp lookout. Some of tho city bloods indulged in the pleasant pastime of whistling and patting to each passer by, on tho corner of Washington avenue and Seventh streets, Sunday. There was strong talk of arresting them and Inking them beforo tho police judge, ycstoriliiy, btij, no action was tnken in tho matter.

The grave had been dug and his friends were in caariages here, roady to inter him when the news came that he was to be shipped to Iowa. Mr. Hibbard accompanied the corpse. Last evening, about six o'clock, the DruniniorV Base Ball Club "leaneu up" a gainst the north side of the Famous clothing store, while they were photographed. It was too late in he evening for copies to be taken from the negative, but they will be on sale to-day at all the leading art galleries, at tho small sum of two for a penny.

Partial writing to this oflice on matters which require an answer are respectfully asked to nanio tho post-oflico at which they receive their mail. We are in receipt of a postal card asking the price of some dance invitations which we carinot answer, simply because the writer failed to mention his postoflice and the postmaster failed to stamp the card with tho name of the oflice at which mailed. i Col. H. C.

St. Clair came up from Belle Plaine, yesterday morning, and informed a Wei.i.ingto.nian reporter that another burglary was committed at that place, last Saturday night, Tho villains entered tho depot some timo during tho night, broke open the safe and extracted $1.00 in money and some gold watches. This makes five burglaries that have been commit ted at Belle Plaino within ten days. Yes, we should judgo that it will bo a cold day when that party gets left for there never were a greater number os laughs crowded into any two hours than those provoked by the funny situ-ations'of thTs piece. A man laughs and sutlers because he can't laugh harder.

If a laugh is as good as a doso of medicine then this company is a half dozen drug stores all in one and tho apothecary shops of this city might just as well close their doors for the next three months to come. Tho city that does not give the "A Cold Day" company a crowded houso ought to "get left," becauso it is tho best thing of the season. Tho home team of tho Wellington base ball club was challenged, yesterday, by a company of drummers, who stopped over at the Phillips House on purpose to meet our boys on tho field. The only trepidation manifested by our boys was on account of the 1 argo feet of the Chicago boys, and the extreme awkwardness of Crenshaw. The drummer boys entered into tho game with a zest worthy of the followers of a Nepolcon or a Scar-Faced Charley, and nindo provisions for every emergency.

Dr. West was engaged in advance to care for tho wounded, but fortunately for tho doctor his services were not required. Ono gentleman from St. Louis, who represented a well known coffin factory, entered into tho game with considerable zeal, butv lion he Saw not tho dead nor tho dying he willed, and left tho field in disgust. Tho surgical instrument man avowed, after tho first Inning that the bones of tho Kansas hoys woro mado of double back-action, forward tension toiighor-nell Injun rubber.

Pease, from Kansas City, took an involco of tho uncivilized Wollingtonlans, and said that he would wager nil tho beans that his houso could forward that ho could raise ft "brecMo" at any time sufficient to iquek nil the Kansai sod-corn filibuster. Tha boy laughed and aid they bought mo, too. Tho giimo progressed nicely until Crenshaw gave the whole thing awny by getting scared. Continued in our next.

E. Church was filled to its utmost capacity and many were unable to obtain even standing room, last Sunday night, to witness the interest-ii exercises by the children composing the Sunday school of that church. The church was beautifully elaborately decorated for the occasion. Garlands of fragrant flowers, wreaths of evergreen and cages containing handsome specimens tf nature's feathered warblers, were profusely distributed throughout the largo auditorium. In graceful harmony with these soul inspiring were the fairy -like forms and sparkling, intelligent cyos of scores of Sunday school scholars, each striving to ncquit themselves with credit; and right well did they suceoed.

Tho exercises opened by singing and repealing tho Lord's prayer, by the infantclass, which was admirably executed, and won applause from the en-tiro audience. After singigg by the school, Itev. E. C. Ferguson offered a fervent prayer.

Next Declaration," delivered by Master Fred Curtis, which was prcsonted in a masterly and eloquent manner. Tho black-board exercise, by tho infant class was well porformed and very impressive. The illustrations on tho black-board wero woll executed and porlrayed in a concise manner the contrast between tho Sunday school and saloon. Ncxtcame tho rosponsi vo reading by Miss Bertha Price's class, which showed that much care and thought had bceu given to perfecting the class for tho occasion. Misses Zora Hargis and Grace sang a duct, which was received with manifestations of appreciation by tho audience.

Miss F. Glascow's essay was a model of perfeotion in all its details. The subject matter was logical and eloquent, and Miss 6. showed marked ability in the oratorical and graceful manner of delivery. Tko recitation given by Miss Carrie Rouse, was attentively listened to and loudly applauded.

Rov. Ferguson delivered a fivo minutes' address, full of good, sound, common sense nnd Instruction to the children of tho Sunday school. The exercises of tho evening wero concluded by a responsive i ending by Mrs. Merrick's class of young ladles, ofter which tho doxolory was sung and thu benediction pronounced. Tho superintendent, teachers and scholars of the school deserve credit for tho faithful manner in which they havo porformod tliulr respect I vo dutios during tho quarUr just closed, and the Wei.MntoniaW winhos them a prosperous and happy futuro in the laudable work of odaoitllng and otherwise ennobling the human race.

One of those pleasant episodes in life that make the old feel young again, and tho young feel as though Father Time would never lay his hand heavily upon them, transpired at the residence of our fellow townsman, George Rasure, yesterday afternoon.

The occasion to which we refer was the reunion of the Kasure family, the first that has occured since 1861. At the appointed hour Grandmother Rasure was seated in the easy chair in the spacious parlor, while around her gathered the representatives of three generation. Mrs. Clariuda Rasure is sixty-four years of age, and although she bus seen her three score and alnn st ten, her eyes sparkled wi delight as she saw her immediate and remote progeny gathered around her on this happy occasion. The representatives of the Rasure family who met on this occasion were as follows: Mrs.

Wm. Hardenbrook, husband and three children, of Palestine town ship, nged 40 years. Mrs. Emma Gasson, aged 44 years, and six children. A.

sure, aged 42 years, wife and two children, Wellington. 1). Rasure, aged 40 years, wife and three children, Wellington. Georgo Rasure, aged 39, and wife Wellington. Frank Rasure, aged 85 years.

Ed. Rasure, aged 22 years. Mrs. Robert Suttleiield, and two children. Mrs.

Doilio Carter and one child. Besides those mentioned abovo were the following persons who are connected with the family by marriage: Oliver Johnson, wife and child. Peter Pierson, wife and four children. This office received a pleasant call Monday morning, from Misses Louie Morris and Minnie Carter. We hope to give no offense to other young ladies when we say that Miss Carter is the prettiest girl we have yet seen in Kansas, although it is not to be presumed that we have seen all the Kansas belles.

Miss Carter hag just closed a successful term of school near Belle Plaino, and has now engagod to nter an abstract office in Wellington.
