Press says: "An individual, more inlent upon coming into notice than adherence to the truth, tried last week to make a case of injustice and tyranny out of. the death of old Troup!" This slap is intended for the Eagle, and as we always strike straight from the shoulder when slapped at, we will "adhere to truth" and remark that the slouohy individual who manages the rickctty Press had befer pay us the ink and paper borrowed at various times, and the mone he owes us for job work which we did to help pay hia debts and keep up his rotten' concern, before he indulges in any more criti cisms of the above character.

HARRIS, said substantially: I have seen it recorded that the Spanish adventurers who invaded Peru and Mexico were so elated by the -vast wealth they found in those counties that they made many expeditions to discover the valle of El Dorado, the acme of wealth and magnificence. Even the petted and courted favorite of England's virgin Queen, Sir.

Walter Raleigh, made two excursions to find thU El Dorado, the acme of wealth and magnificence. I need not tell you tnat it has been reserved for Americans, sturdy men and fair women who, if they have not found have founded an El Dorado in Kansas by the side of a stream of wh ich we are proud, and these are our gs to night. It has devolved on me to welcome you, El Doradians, to our hearts and homes. (The speaker then gave some statistics historical of Butler county.) The building of tha Wichita road has been the result of the untirinff labors of a very few gentlemen in Dorado and Fort Scott are one We are united, socially and commercially. While wo extend to you the right hand of fellowship, we hope this shall not be our last meeting.

Oa behalf of the business men and business interests of our city, wa welcome you. We have here a growing and prosperous little city. Our needs are your What you want we have to supply! Your surplus is r.ece3sary for our welfare. Our facilities for manufacturing are surpassed by any city in the State; our railroad facilities and communication with the outaide world are not surpassed, hence I say to the people of El Dora do, come and see us; let us cultivate more intimate aud closer business relations. By so doing, it will redound to the mutual benefit of these two cities.

On behalf of the young men of Fort Scott, I also extend to the young ladies of El Dorado a hearty welcome. The kindness which wo have attempted to show to you to-day, we hope you will reciprocate to theso young men. We are all young; our feeling and interests are identical. Girls while the boys extend the right hand of Tb.e Cold. The coldest wave which, has visited El Dorado since the settlement of Butler county was experienced on Thursday evening of last week, and which lasted until Sunday.

Friday and Saturday thermometers marked 18 and 20 degrees below zero, according to location, and tho cold, on account of the high was almost unendurable. The weather for some days previous had been cold, cloudy, almost foggy, wi tli an occasional flurry of snow and sleet. At 5 o'clock Thursday- afternoon it suddenly grew very dark, and the wind swung around from northeast to northwest with the velocity of a hurricane. The cold became intenso at once. never saw the mercury drop below zero so The wind blew a gale all night, and Friday morning the air was fairly blue.

"CHIXA AND HER RK8ODK0K3," Response by J. P. Robens, of the West, End China Store, who said substantially: "Ladies and Gentlemen Some time a-o, when it was proposed by the people of El Dorado to honor us to-night, our citizens gathered in the Council Room and arranged to receive thein. At that time Mr Hill suggested that while they had orators from El Dorado and orators from Ft.ScotU.it might be too heavy for the people, and that it was best to get a a little man to make a little speech.

The committee wisely selected- me. The resources of China are peculiarly interesting to you tonight. China has many peculiar customs and resourcea." The speaker then referred to the peculiar features of Chinese marriage audits many ad vantsiges over the American plan. "Another peculiar habit in China," he said, "is the custom of making pi esents at all seasons of the year. The average Chinaman makes a pr sent which will be useful to his heirs.

He presents them with a coffin. Another peculiarity of the Chinese is that they do not allow any of their politicians to As an instance of the penetrati oftheeold last Friday we mention the fact that a well in El Dorado, twenty feet deep, was frozen over with ice two inches thick.
