The district court is in setsion. Miss AHie Morgan has regained her health. John Thompson is quite low with the asthma. James Bay has returned to Kansas City to work. S.

The election held here last week was the warmest ever witnessed in this town fchlp. Reynolds and painters are through painting and have returned to Kansas City. Col. Frye and family occupy a suite of rooms in the new hotel, where they will live this winter. B.

F. Cooksey has returned after a two -weeks' visit in Illinois. He left bis aged father in poor health. The walls of the new hotel are handsomely decorated with wall paper. Mr.

Frye has a delicious taste. Will McBrlde, while chopping wood some time ago, cut bis foot quite severe ly, but he Is now able to walk. Col. Frve has taken the contract to shelve a room for Evans and Reed, of Quenemo, who will put in a fine stock of hardware. E.

M. Reeder, the most prominent gardner in this vicinity, has raised so iuaDy gwect potatoes that he is at a loss1 to know what to do with them. Quenemo hus organized a company and propose to erect a hotel costing pos-MtAy $6,500. But when the news of the enterprbe readied Topeka, the cost was aced at $10,000, and so published iu a i opeka paper. Such rapid growth Is unprecedented, except In real-estate literature, and the only way we can account for the phenomona is that several very prominent citizens of Topeka are interested in Quenemo real-estate Lebo Light "Messrs.

Evans and Reed, who bavd the putation la this county, and elsewhere of being one of the most enterprising and pushing hardware flams in this sec-tion of the state, having decided to open a oraneh establishment In our new and progressive town, and In a short time Rosemont will have this firm with all their characteristic vim, business, energy and capital. We called upon them the other day and they inform us that they are coming to compete with the best firms in this section of Kansas, and that the people of this part of Osage eounty can buy goods of them at the same liberal prices as they can be purchased in their Quenemo store. We hope the people of Liucoln township and other localities will patronize these gentlemen ana encourage them In their effort to establish a permanent and important branch of buslners at Rosemont. Mr. F.

Evans will have personal charge of the store at this place, and will be glad to form the acquaintance of all our people. Mr. Evans will be here with his stock about the 28th inst. Kind Words. Quenemo Republican.

The editor of the Republican was the guest of Mr. and W. H. H. Frye, of Rose mont, last Saturday, and.

while there was shown through the very elegant and ca paclous building recently erected the re by Messrs Frye and Wright of Kansas City, who reepresent a very large amount of capltol, and have taken hold of con slderable reality in Rosemont, (in fact own the townslte) wi th the intention of making it a manufacturing boint. The building which they have erected Is desl gnedfora hotel upon the upper floor, containing twenty -five large elegant fin lshed while the lower floor is sub divided into five handsome business rooms 25x80 feet, with very elegant fronts of colored glass. The entire costs of the building aggregates the sum of $10,000, and is finUhed very neatly and it shows that It has been put up at great expense. Mr. Frye assures us that they are mat ing this outlay knowingly; they have the resources, yet undeveloped, that will give them two dollars in return for every one invested, and when asked upon what they were depending replied that they had an nnexhaustable field of coal, and also fifteen foot vein of the best pottery clay in the United States, bot'a of which it was their Intention to develope at an early day.

We were assured by Mr Frye that while it seemed like a foolish thing to put so much money in a building out on tho bleak prat rie, that they were confident that the day would come withi the next tea years when we would see, if live, at a town of eight or ten thousand thriving prosperous people busily engag ed in mining coal ana manufacturing. cups, saucers plates etc. from their pot- terv clay, and that its name would be lioscrn int. If Mr. Frye Is not deceied in regard to the natural deposits there, we feel that be will realizs all he expects, and Half an Hour's Havoc with our County Ex- changes Correspondence.

The Pulse Case. From the testimony which is being eiven in the Pulse ease it seems almost like an impossibility for that gentleman to extricate himself irom tne predicament in wnicn ne is piacea. AH the testimony has been directly against him. Mrs. Lozier was a very damaging witness, as were also Aery and Mr.

Horn. Mr. Hobson, the druggist of Quenemo, from whom Pulse is supposed to have procured the poison, can not positively identify him but gave a minute description of the clothes worn by Pulse that day. J. J.

Carroll testified that Pulse was at Quenemo on the day in question. Ottawa Local News. JIAXTOS ITEMS. Correspondence of the Reflector. Why is Cyrus Brown the happiest man in our vicinity? Because they have a big boy at their house.

We claim that Maxton has the most absent-minded man that we have heard of lately. He went to election Tuesday of last week and forgot to vote. new saw mill made its appearance in our midst Monday afternoon. It was drawn by oxen and some of the school children thought that was almost as big a show as the bears that were here last week. Xantippe.

Arbor Items. How beatiful the weather holds out! This is just the time for farmers to get their corn out. By the way, are you going to the corn snucklng, next Saturday, at Mrs. John Wiley's? It is hoped enough will attend to finish gathering her corn. Mrs.

N. E. Young is quite III and has been for the past week. Gusta has to stay out of school to do the house work. The Robinson boys sold to W.

A. Wiley 104 bushels of good corn at 40cts. per bushel, and they haye more yet to sell at those figures. Lone Elm school made an effort to organize a literary last Friday night. Whetoer they made a success of it or not ir not inown by your corespondent.

We hope they did for they have plenty of talent. Quite a number of town youngsters, and of the vacinity of K. B. McFerren, came in to entertain Miss Etta last week, and It proved to be a very agreeable affair. We notice the familliar face of young Mr.

Hendricks in our neighborhood. Wonder if he is on the look )ut for a school teacher. QUENEMO IETMS. From the Osage County Republican. The County Commissioners are in session.

An interesting suit engaged the attention of Judge Cross last Sa'urday. It was about the collection of rent between couple of our fellow citizens, Messrs Dean and Latchem being for the plaintiff and Mr. J. A. Smith, editor of the Empo ria department of the Workman, for the defendant.

During the course of the trial Judge Cross fined Smith $5,00 for contempt of court, and afterwards remitted the fine. Fil Reed and ye editor boarded the cars for Rosemont Monday taking with us various equipments for a grand hunt, on foot from that place back to Quenemo.

Morris, Newark, Ark, says: "Was down with Abssess of the Lungs, and friecds and physicians pronounced me an Incurable Consumptive. Began taking Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, am now on my third bottls, and able to oversee the work on my farm. It is the finest medicine ever made." Jesse Middelvvart, Decatur, Ohio, says "Had it not been for Dr. King's New Discovery for Consumption, I would have died of Lung disease.

Was given up by doctors. Am now in best of health. Try it. Sample bottles free at Bodley Son's. Melvern Township.

The election is over and our Republican victory is won with the exception of Melvern township ticket. The democrats elected township trustee oyer a republican with the support of sore head republicans of which we have many. They claimed that John Greer was good for something and perhaps he would make a trustee. It appeared to me that some of our republican friends had lost some of their near and dear friends. I Uck was because they failed to get the nomination for office.

The demo crats did their whole duty in soliciting sore head republicans to vote with them. Where was General Rila. He was cot ou the grounds rallying his republican forces Perhaps he went to the rear with the stragglers and sore heads. There was a very perceptable difference between our late defeated candidate. Hank had had no sore spots.

Lets remember the men that work for the party Whtn they come up and ask for office let us see they are straight republicans. That is the ouly way to make straight republicans that stand by the party first last and all the time. We failed to see our central committee man. Lets' elect some one next time that thinks nough of the party to do his dnt-v as such. Re tublican.
