This school has been in successful oper-
alton five years, and as it is now firmly es-
tablished, carefully graded and thorough
~ disciplined, it is hoped that still better

sire. and viii seek to obtain it, thorough
preparation for business life, for teaching
in our public schools, or for College.
Courses of study have been arranged for
the High school with special reference TO
such preparation of the pupil, but 1t Is
promised 10 those only who will give the
time and study required.
Itis intended that thoroughness in In

teachers, and diligence and earnestness
in study, and the observance OF order on
the part of pupils, shall be the prominent
characteristics of this School.

AWORD To TRAvELERs!-We have word
to say In faror of the Missouri Pacific railroad.
It was the "pioneer'' line westward and is the
.'old reiiable'' route to st. Louis With the
improvements which have been made during
the past year, we believe that the Missouri Pa
cific railroad has the best track and the finest
and safest equipment Of any line west Of the
Mississippi. 1t is the only line which runs
three daily express trains Of fine coaches and
Pullman sleepers, equipped with tee Miller
platform and patent air brake, from the lead
ing points in the west, through Kansas City,
Sedalia and jefferson City without change,
connecting at st. Louis with eleren different
through routes to points north, east and south

The four firms that now occupy the four
business rooms of the Grand Central Hotel
building promise to make competition lively
in the leading staples OF the merchandise trade
of Wichita. The lines of hardware, dry goods,
groceries and clothing, each are represented in
the building by live firms, and 1t makes no diff
ference what the buyer may want-unless he is
sick he can be accommodated without leaving
the block. These four firms having decided
on line Of action, are determined to make the
Central block a centre of trade, recognized as
such throughout Southwestern Kansas, and
they defy competition from whatsoever quar-
ter. People coming from distance should by
all means visit this block. They will find that
"W. A. Thomas Il Co. has it," This is one Of
the oldest, most popular and successful grocery
houses in the city. The firm of W. A. Thomas
& Co. is known from the main line Of the A.,
T. 8. +. r. Il. to the Indian Territory. Their
oldest customers speak the highest Of them,
and their new ones are universally satisfied.
These words are not written to fill the meas
ure of an ordinary puff, but are well deserved
by the accommodating and successful gentle
men who formerly run the 'grcen 'front.' so
successfully. Oak Davidson, whose immense,
fashionable and cheap stock Of dry goods is
found in this building, is no stranger either to
the lady purchasers of this and surrounding
counties. Notwithstanding the ''panicky' times
his trade is steadily increasing. He has q
knack of laying in stocks that take. Fraker
4 Peyson, who occupy the corner room with
stoves, tinwarc, etc, are experienced men in
their line. But lately set up in our city, they
are determined to build up trade that will
stick. They buy in large quantities and can
sell upon the smallest margin. They have
come to stay, and persons wishing anything in
their line can count certainly upon fair dealing
and low prices. Stanford n Hewitt, who occu-
by the north room, are young.men full Of pluck
and the desire to build up good, substantial
trade in the line of clothing, boots, shoes, gen.
tlemen's furnishing goods, etc. Their stock is
fst-cass, and all they ask is trial. That they
will please and satisfy we have not the least
doubt. Taken all in all, our readers will find
the Central block an attractive business centre
and profitable place to trade. For particu-
lars see double column advertisement.

MARRIED.-It was the rumor yesterday that
our crown-officcr, ii. c. Sluss, and Miss Allie
Grcen,were married night before last, and had
set up for themselves. II it is not so it ought
to be. Green ever be his memory with his dis
consulate boon-galoots, for Green was his love,
and now Green is his wife. Whatever of legal
"ripeness' he may attain in the future, still
his better half will be Green. Because his only
"Ally" was once Green is no reason why he
should feel blue,-or even feel Green. The
whole transaction may seem little Green, but
