Miller, THE GLEN ELDER Correspondence. Plainvtlle, Jan. 5, '89. Ed. Herald: I was agreeably sur prised by a letter which came to hand New Year's day by one of Glen Elder's best young men, asking me to meet him at Bogue, Graham county, Kansas, to solemnize matrimony for him.

Tha day was beautiful; the sun shone as warm as on a summer day, and by the strong effort of the iron horse, I was soon brought to the scene of action.

Tf Mm 1 6 to 3 2 i CENTRAL BRANCH DIVISION: Local Time-Card. A 1 KM Hapgood. Decomber 21st, 1888, of membraneous croup. Jay infant son of Mr. and Mrs.

C. Iv. Hap good; aged 1 year, 3 months and 21 days. The deceased was interred in Excelsior Union Cemetery, followed by a large number of sorrowing relatives and friends. Another lamb is departed; Another sunbeam has fled, And crushed and broken hearted, Weep we for the dead.

For death they have arayed thee, Sweet lamb, so pure and mild, And in the grave they've laid thee Dar, sunny hearted child. We are stricken down with anguish, Aud bitter tears are shed; For thee, for thee we languish; The loved, the lost, the dead. But from this vale of mortals, Wo look beyond, and see, A star that lights the portals, Shining beautifully for thee. Palmer at Martin Palmer's, in Mor gan 111., Dac.Oth, Armilda Palmer, wife of E. J.

Palmer, of Beloit, Kansas. She leaves a husband and five children to mourn her loss. Following is a letter she wrote the three boys she left at home in Beloit, written just before she died "Dear Boys: I am almost ready to cross the Beautiful River. Prepare to meet me in heaven, is the prayer, of your dying mother. God bless my sweet friends everywhere.

Give my love to Mrs. Harvey and family. I will soon be in eternity. I am not afraid to die, for I will soon be in heaven: That is so sweet. Milda Palmer." HIARB1 Hurrell Fulkerson.

The Glasco people will find Miss Giger an acquisition to their society and busi ness circles, and we trust she may be appreciated by them, as shs is by her friends in this city.

Mr. John Musgrave called Tnes day morning. He had just returned from a trip to Haddam, Washington county, where he bought 25.000 bush els of corn, at pikes ranging from 18 to 20 cents.

After the installation of the of ficers of the Oddfellows lodge in this city, last Friday night, the brothers re paired to W. O. Bay's restaurant, and were served to a fine oj'ster supper.

The lodge is steadily growing in mem bership and influence, and has a bright future. The officers of the Order of the Eastesn Star Chapter, No. CO, of this city, were installed Thursday night of last week, by Dr. Morse, ably assisted by Miss Mattie Giger, Mar shall. After the installation.the ladies served a fine lunch, af which over fifty guests partook.

A fire at Beloit last Thursday night, burned out Grover's store, loss $10,000, insured for Usher's store, loss Port's new store, $1,000 insurance on building. Spon taneous combustion was the cause of the fire. It is said the waterworks worked splendidly. -A serious fire occurred at Downs, Sunday night, in which sis" build iDgs were consumed, among them, the har ness shop of Cole Birt. They saved a portion of their stock, the rest of it, and the building, was a total loss, as they had no insurance.

The fire origi nated in the Howell House, but from what cause, we did not learn. A few years back, and a Stove was considered as the plainest and least or namental of all the articles of furniture the house. The manufacturers of Acorn Stoves have revolutionized this, and their Stoves are now marvels of beauty and utility. Sam Thorn burgh handles the Ac6rn Stove, and also has a large stock of general hardware, vtbbh we commend to the public. See his advertisement elsewhere.

J. W. Estep, J. S. Howard, Pastor.

Elder. Mr. and Mrs. Proctor visited in Smith and Norton counties, during the holidays. Later Mr.

Fred Bnl- thaup has received a letter from Mr. Proctor, who is yet in Norton county, stating that Mrs. Proctor was very; sick with pneumoui and that he had no hones of her recovery. i It is reported ia railroad circles, that on and after the fifteenth of this month, there will he but a1 tri weekly freight train on the Central Branch I road west of Greenleaf. That will be fun.

As it now is, it takes the best part of two days to go to Beloit and return, and with a triweekly freight train on the road, if a man goes away from home, thefe is no telling when he can return. At the rate the railroad service is beidg reduced, by next April, about all there will be left of the Cen tral Branch road, will be the remera berance that it once existed. Tuesday afternoon, after school closed, Joe Hooker, Boy Hewett and some other boys were skating on the mill pond, and Joe got on thin ice, broke through and went down in about eight feet of water, iloy took off his overcoat, and as Joe was going down the third time, he caught hold of it, and in his struggles, drew Hoy into the water with him, but he swam out, holding onto the coat, and drew the drowning boy ashore. Both boys came near being drowned, and hereaf ter, they will probably do their skat ing on land, or wait until the ice is safe. Cawker City, Downs, Beloit and other towns in this section of country have been visited by disastous fires, within the past few weeks, aud Glen Elder will sooner or later.pass through the same ordeal, unless the utmost precaution is exercised.

1U3 town is as dry as a tinder box, and a spark of fire would cause a conflagration. There is an ordinance requiring a certain class of chimneys or lines to be pro vided for each building fronting on the square, and as there are some which are not furnished as the ordi nance requires, the proper odioer should at once make a rigid inspection of every building, and if found unsale, cause it to be made secure. If a fire was to start in any building on either side of the square, the entire row would go, as there is no water supply available. Let the matter be looked after Later The May or has instructed the marshal to attend to the matter, and put the chimneys and flues in a safe condition. Last week we referred to the elopement of a man and woman from Glen Elder.

The facts us we gather them are that W. T. Yates, late Union Labor candidate for the State Senate, and a Mrs. Mertha Lund, left there together two or three weeks since. Mrs.

Lund applied for a bill of "divorce from her husband before leaving; and Mrs. Yates has filed her petitou for a divorce since the truants deprted. She charg es cruelty and abuse from Yates, and adulter by him and Mrs. Lund. Those best posted seem to think that it is a put up job, and agreed upon in advance by the parties in interest.

Beloit Gazette. The Herald has refrained from mentioning any of the parties who are directly or indirectly mixed up in this nasty muss, but now, as the matter ha3 become public property, it is not necessary to keep silent longer. If one half the allegations are true, the court wili be regaled with some choice mor sels of scandal. Over a year ago, AV. T.

Yates professed entire sanctification, and left tha M. E. Church, of which he was a member, and joined the Holiness people, alleging that the M. E. Church was not pure and good enough for him.

Ha also severed his rater nal relations with the Masonic order, for the reason, he sai'l, that they too, were too corrupt for him to affiliate with, all of which.if them from Yates' standard, is a terrible re flection on the church and masons, but not being true, places Yates in the role of louble-dyed he undoubtedly is. Mrs. Yates suit for di vorce has been brought in good faith, and is not "put up job," as has been suggested, and that lady has the sym pathy and respect of this community. friend. The day was passed in the most pleasant the city (which is only three months old) talk ing of the future and making ready the "marriage feast." At four o'clock, there was a cry made, "All things are now ready." Quite a number of the citizens had gathered in to witness the scene and partake of the luxuries which were waiting in abundance.

The groom and bride ware ushered in before the group of waiting friends, in an elegant manner, and were unit ed in holy wedlock, in the usual form, after which we all joined in greeting them with many wishes for a long and happy life. Supper being in waiting we gathered around the festive board to enjoy the bounties which it offered. Bidding adieu to my newly made friends, and congratulating Fred, I left him a happier man than eyer before, with one of the most elegant and beautiful young ladies of Graham for his life companion.

Kansas and Nebraska Railway, is to announce that on Nov, 18th, solid vesti bule trains will be run between Chi cago and Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo without change, making close connections at the above points with all trains Sait Lake, Los Angeips, San Francisco, Portland, Oregon and all points west, and at Kansas City and St. Joseph eastward for Chicago, St.

Louis and all points east, north and south. These royal trains consisting of Pull man sleeping cars; restful reclinging chair cars and magnificent day coaches, were built expressly for' this service by the Pullman Company, and are without question the handsomest ever turned out by that fatuous establish ment. The reclining chair cars spoken of are free to all holdere of first class tickets and a courteous attendant will be found with every car to care for the wauts of our patrons. Ask your nearest ticket agent for a ticket via "The Great Rock Island Route," or write to John Sebastian, General Ticket and Passenger Agent, Topeka, Kansas. VESTIPULE XRAIXS TO CHICAI O.

The Vestibule train is a new factor in western railroad transportation. It is claimed for these trains that on ac caunt of their being connected by steel hoods all danger of telescoping in case of accident is removed, the train being practically one long car. It is claimed that the oscillation of the cars is greatly reduced, and it is also certain that the vestibule train affords the greatest comfort yet known to travelers. The adoption of this style of train by the Chicago, Santa Fe California Railway between Kansas City and Chi cago is a strong bid for the passenger traffic between the West and Chicago. This new road is in many particulars ahead of any of its older competitors, and will undoubtedly be the popular road to Chicago.
