Last Sunday the new Methodist Church reoently ereoted at Fair View five miles south of Lawrence near the residenoe of Mr, Fitch Reed, was dedicated with appropriate and interesting ceremonies. Dr. Jones, of Leavenworth, delivered the sermon in the morning and conduoted a praise meeting in the evening. It was announced that the sum of $675 was needed to meet the finan cial demands on the church, over 800 was raised, which places the sooiety on a good footing financially. A quartette consisting of Mr, and Mrs.

S. J. Churchill, Mrs. Hollister, Dr. Punton and Miss Mamie Yeats, as organist, went down from Lawrence and led ui the musical exercises.

Yesterday the harness thief was taken before Judge Howard on the charge of stealing G. W. E.

Griffith's harness. This makes the second case against him. About two weeks ago Prof. Stimpson had a good saddle stolen from his barn. He went to Worthington's harness shop yesterday where he found his saddle.

Mr. Worth-ington said he had purchased it from Combs about two weieks ago for $1. Combs will undoubtedly be' prosecuted for this theft too. If the police continde developing new cases against him as fast as they have been, he will be sent to the penitentiary for the remainder of his natural existence. There is considerable complaint about the mail service along the Southern Kansas.

It seems that a single agent makes a run of 610 miles, starting from Kansas City at 7 o'clock in the morning and getting into Harper at 1 o'clock the next morning, a distace of 305 miles. Starting on the return at 2:45 the same morning they get into Kansas City at 5:25 the same evening. This is too long a run for the efficiency of the service. Court. Preparation foi District Court is rapidly progressing.

Yesterday Judge Chad-wick filed with Clerk Summerfield his quota of appealed cases, seven in number, and all civil. This will make about sixty cases, and if the other Justices do as well the number on the docket will reach seventy-five before court convenes on the 14th day of April. This will make a very fair reckoning for legal gentlemen. Death of Frof. Barteldles.

Prof. G. W. Barteldies died at his home in this city on Thursday, the 20th, of consumption. He had been sick a long time, and his death was not unexpected.

He was only thirty-seven years of age, yet in the prime of life, and was loved and respected by a large circle of friends. The funeral took place on Saturday at his late residence, from whence his re mains were borne to their last resting place in Oak Hill cemetery, We are pleased to announce that the Faculty of the Law Department of the State University have appointed H. T. Smith to represent that department at the next Commencement. Mr.

Smith has been connected with the University for the past five years three years as a student in the Literary Department and two in the Law Department, from which he graduates next June. A New Firm. We call attention to the card of Geo. B. Edgar Co.

The text books used by the Lawrence Business College are in many respects a departure.

from the bourse of study elsewhere, and are acknowledged to be the most complete and perfect of any yet published. Students can enter the college, however, at any time and begin their studies without regard to the progress made by our minds for domestic happiness, and it is illustrated by the story of the boy who made a mistake in his prayer for good husband to the fact. He immediately investigated and found the roof in flames. With the assistance of the neighbors it was extinguished in a few minutes, with a loss of $100. No insurance.

At the time a ten days old baby was lying dead in the house. After a lingering illness attended with great suffering especially in the last few days of his life, Frank Menet passed from this life on Friday the 21st inst. Several months ago he resigned the office of City Clerk, by reason of failing health, and wer.t to Colorado. For a few months he accepted a position in a hotel in Salida but was finally obliged to give up, and a few weeks ago he came home to die. His disease was Brights Disease of the kidneys.

There is a large amount of shipping done at this point. We have the best country in Kansas lying west of us, producing wheat, corn, oats, hogs, cattle and fruit in abundance.

In May 1870 he was elected city clerk and so faithfully and efficient filled that difficult position that he held in durine the changing administration of thirteen years, only to decline reelection' by reason of failing health. Few men ever held a publio position so many years amid the changes of a growing city, with all the conflicting political issues, and quitted it with as much credit as Mr. Menet, at times having the duties of almost every city office devolving upon him, but always faithful to every trust.

He was a prominent member of the Masonio Order and the funeral which was on Monday the 24th was conducted under their auspies, accompanied by theJKnights of Honor, of which he was also a worthy and influential member.

Per-shall had prepared for them an elegant Burglary. Mr. A. B. Headly, a gentleman from Severance, who is in the city visiting friends, went to the Place House Thursday evening and took a room for the night.

He was given apartments on the ground floor at the northwest corner of the building, the head of his bed being near the window. On retiring he put his clothes under his pillow for safe keeping and left the light burning. During the night some one raised the window, reached in and pulled all his clothes out. In his vest pockets he had two watches, one gold, valued at $125, engraved B. of L.

The clothes were taken around the house and left on the south portico, where they were found by the clerk next morning. The police were immediately notified and commenced a thorough investigation.

Marshal Prentice arrested one man Friday morning, but after searching him he was discharged. The man arrested had a silver watch which he claims to have found in the Little Arkansas river, near Salida, Colorado, upon the outside cover of which was engraved in pen text the words "Allie to Frank, Dec. 25, The man may have found the watch as he claims, or he may have stolen it.
