4 TROUBLE THAT WAS A Joy.

There was trouble night before last. The
operator thought the wires were down be.
tween Emporia and Topeka, the foreman
thought it was owing to an unusual electri.
cal disturbance, the night force, almost to
man, including the engineer, the press
man and the messenger boy, thought that
they wanted "to see q man." while the edi-
tor thought nothing but tept on writing
against space. After developments showed
them all to be wrong.
The trouble was over on W alter street ut
the house of the business manager, who
had gotten ups ratification meeting with
out any brass band. There were not .
very large number present. but the at
tendance was very select. as high as $40
being paid for the presence Of single in
dividual. The result was most gratifying,
another Blaine and Logan man being
secured. The business manager declared
next morning on his word and honor that
the new recruit for protective tariff, a free
ballot aud an honest count, weighed fifteen
pounds and mr. the assertion was accom-.
panied by a box OF choice cigars both the
day and night forces, including the devil,
echoed "tifteen pounds" and as fifteen
pounds for boy baby is about 10 the meas.
ure OF the average productions Of
this valley, and We feel accord with the
spirit OF the EAGLES representation of
facts accompanied, fifteen pounds goes.
All affections windows open to receive
him
Pure and fresh from Heaven and gave bis
name.
Clasping and caressing.
In arms of love compressing.
That life had missed a blessing iii the
baby came.

UNEXPECTED DEATH.

A very sad, unexpected and strange
death overlook Mr.. James Oregon, n WE'LL
known Sumner county farmer, whose home
is near Wellington. last Sunday, Mr.. Greg
son was well-known 10 several OF our
older merchants. We had heard OF the mis-
fortune, but were unable to get the facts
until yesterday. 1t seems that on Sunday
he went out TO feed number OF hogs kept
in lot. He noticed that one young animal
that was irothing at the mouth kept follow
ing him around. He remarked TO an at
tendant that be would kick the anima. over
il 1t didn't keep away, accompanying the
utterance with motion of his loot.
Quick as thought the animal jumped
upon him. striking him with his
tusk on the inside Of the
thigh. laying open the flesh and tearing
asunder the main artery The attendant,
instead OF applying q compress above the
rupture, ran for help. Mr.. Gregson stopped
the flow Of his life by pressing the artery
with his own hands, but becoming impa-
tient OF the delay started for the house. The
move was fatal. As soon rs relieved the
ruptured artery exhausted his life In a very
few maments. Before life was entirely ex-
tinct bandage was applied but unfortu-
nstely through ignorance 1t was tied below
instead OF above the wound, which only
had the effect OF making his death more
swirl and sure.

ON THE DEATH OF cHlLpREn.

ON THE DEATH OF cHILDFEF.
In Gods garden radiant nowerr VIII the air
with sweet perfume,
Bursting bud and fuller blossom
He hath lifted to His bosom,
Making heaven fsirer, sweeter with :heir
bloom.
From the earthly fields He took them 10 His
gardens blest above.
Ere he chilly winds had panied them
Or the rains Of earth had stained them,
Safe lie keeps them, bathing ever in the
sunshine Of His love.
How our empty households haunt us, whsn
our breathing flowers have fed,
Fall the scalding tear drops on
The broken stem-the blossom gone
Anguish deep and bitter, will not bling Us
back our dead.
Stricken mother, cease thy weeping. 10
the mission Of thy foweret 10 complete
Heavenward thy heart It lifted,
sanctified thy thoughts have driited
To that land Of light, and gladness; where
it blooms with love replete.
All, the skies through which it passed
newer beauties now unfold,
Eyes Of faith-not mortal vision,
Soar unto the fields Eiysian
Far beyond the gates of jasper and Of gold
And we see the hills Of heaven star-gemmet
with the flowers OF earth,
In, h. hscc,n ae.>u>l
With joy more than supe-nal,
Sending fragrance, incense rarest, to thu
Lord that crowned the birth.

contract for the painting, entire, Of the
new N. Z. church TO be built In this city
this summer, under contract by A. Smith.
We are informed that this will be the larg-
est and finest contract for painting ever let
in the city Ms the trusses are TO be exposed
and the ceiling to be Of wood. The church
complete will cost about twenty thousand
dollars, and work In the building will COM
mence tomorrow. We have not been graf
flied with q view OF the prospective, the
elevations or plans, but those who have
seen it say that II will be an imposing edi-
fee. Atwelye hundred pound bell was
received from Baltimore last week accom-
panied by receipted bill which we can
tell more about when we learn more, but
the good DR.. Phillips Is supposed to have
been, in some way, the Inspiration that
bought such fine bell. Mr.. Ayer says the
bids aggregate less than the estimates, 80
that the edifce including the frescoing will
be done forthwith. The Myer Brothers,
who are comparatively new men here, are
10 be congratulated on the reputstion they
nave gained, and on the securing Of this
contract which will be continued adver-
tisemeBt for them.

COUNTY ATTORNEY.

There has been some talk among the Re-
publicans to The effect that our party would
have Judge Amos Harris 10 meet again this
fall on the stump, that he would be the
Democratic nominee for county attorney.
While under the present law there is as
much or more pay in the county attorney
ship than In the judgeship, Judge
Harris has not proved the kind Of a man
who worships shekels. But there lisa bet
ter reason why we need not expect to have
him to fight this fall. Judge Harris be-
longs to the old school Of politicians,
and has great respect for the proprieties
and ameneties. Having lately occupied
the bench OF this district, he would prob
ably under no circumstances consent to ac-
cept the position OF attorney II rendered.
While the judge is an able lawyer, and
while he received a large number OF Re-
publican votes in this county In his late
canvass, he will no doubt encourage some
Of the younger lawyers ofhis party to make
the race.

which will be . strong one.
After the meeting the band and large
number Of citizens proceeded to the resi-.
dence Of DR.. Allen where some good music
was dfscoursed.
The temper and character Of the meeting
last night showed most conclusively that
with sill the blow, brsg and buster Of the
Democrats and the mugwumps who have
fallen into their liues this fall, Wichita and
Sedgwick county are just as solidly Repub-
Iican as they ever were and that both will
be- redeemed In November.

GARDEN PLAIN NOTES.

Mr.. j. NJ. Derr. tho deputy postmaster Of
Garden Plain, was in yesterday morning to
make arrangements for q set Of instruments
for bald just organized in that place,
which will consist OF fourteen pieces.
From Mr.. Derr we learn that Mr.. S. c.
Thomas, of Mt. Hope, met with y serious
mishap day before yesterday. A travelling
street gambler accompanied by Dave Cofey
came into the town and started his game.
OF course somebody was soon swindled-
the game being $40 for 81. Coffey and the
gambler lit out in hurry and Mr.. Thomas
and two or three others attempted to
oyertase them with team. The team
became frightened and ran away, throwing
Mr.. Thomas violently to the ground, dis
locating his shoulder and otherwise seri.
ously bruising him. The team at last ae-
counts had not been heard from.
The property owners OF Garden Plain are
putting up two public bridges near their
town on their own account, Of which Mr.
J. X. Sawyer, of this city, has the con.
tract.
Among other present and contemplated
improvements the erection Of a Baptist
church will be commenced next week,
the ground having already been staked OF.
