Formally Of Wichita.

And Old resIdent OF Wichita has been heard
from. Our whilom money loaner and real
estate agent, John Edwin Martin, has been
demonstrating the fact that sharper gradu.
afed at Wichita Is equal to the dead-beat
emergencies OF any community, however en-
terprising. Kansas City has been yictimized
by some OF her bankers. but John Edwin, the
unS. uous, beats one of her brightest moneta-
~ institutions. Failing in his attempts to
saddle the city o: hills with his perfect gaso-
line street lamp enterprise, he turEed his at
tention to ether avenues OF profit. 1t was q
''fish or cut bait" case with John Edwin NJ .
he had been reduced to the ground hog ex-
tremiiy. Tie way he raised the wind for
himself and q breeze for his adopted home
generally, was like this: de rented little
room for the purpose of produce and gar
den truck trade. Procuring large number
of egg cases or krates, John T.. filled them to
his abundant satisi action, sent the box es TO q
freight depot and consigned the precious car
go TO a large house in New York. That was
business. lie next visited the Bank OF Kan
sas City with his bill OF lading aud obtained
an advance Of 1900 on his consignment
Drafts were issued on the New York no use,
but Thursday last the New York firm tele-
graphed back that "the drafts were no good;
that the egg eases had been opened by the
coEsignees and were found to contain moth
ing but saw dust" In the meantime Wichi-
tas old aud reliable land agent and gas COM
paDy competitor yamoOsed the ranch, alb

nor is he likely TO be. What train he took,
when he left, whore he went or which gener-
al dir, elton, are questions not yet answered
by the Kansas City ioIlce; but thai he is
gone, ditto eggs, ditto money, i. a fact that
any one in the vicinity OF Kaw's mouth can
tell you.
