A SAD ACCIDENT.

Mr.. Fay and wife, accompanied BY their
daughter. who teaches in our city schools.
were coming from their home on the west
side on Monday morning in spring wagon.
The mother and daughter sat upon back
spring seat. In crossing ditch into which
the hind wheels suddenly went down, the
seat upon which they were . stt 1as. went en-,
mon the hard road. Both fell upon their
shoulders and backs. Mrs. Fay was hurt
but slightly, but Miss Fay received terri,

prove serious. Their home is about four,
teen miles west, but the accident occurred
inst across the river. Miss Fay was picked

orupA SPRINGS.

Since my arrival ut these rather celebrated
springs, have become satisfied that their
merits are not really known-that, in fact,
they have not been half enough advertised.
Since the first announcement was made,
three years ago, by Hon. G. r. Mitchell,
their present owner, of the great value of
these waters as cure for disease, they have
steadily grown in popularity, and now
around and near these truly wonderful
springs there has grown up little town-a
retiring town--knowing only the vicissi-
tudes which besets all kansas towns
in their infancy; and, indeed, their early
youth. Yet, Notwithstanding the fact that
this ambitious town mas always been de-
prived of the advantages of a railroad, it has
gone on enlarging its borders and gather
ing TO itself from distant states, as well as
from our own commonwealth, class of in
dustrious citizens who will yet be heard
from. The place is Incorporated, and, to-
gether with Salt City, located but half
mile away, has population of four or
five hundred. From my observations
since coming here and also from reliable re-
ports, am convinced that these springs
possess remarkable healing properties, par
ticuiarly for rheumatism and all diseases of
the stomach. liver and kidneys. 1t is not at
all uncommon for patients 10 be brought
here unable to walk, on account Of rheum-
atism of long standing, and 90 away in few
weeks comparatively we'll. A very rapid
Improvement is noticeable in nearly every
invalid who comes, SO much SO that those
who have given the springs fair trial have
great confidence in their efficacy. There
ere at present about one hundred and fifty
patients here. some coming from as far AS
Indiana purposely TO try these waters. IL
properly advertised these springs would soon
become the resort of thousands of invalids
and l believe il would pay them TO come.
There is one good hotel and several board
ing houses where good board can be pro-
cured at the usual rates; besides these there
are number of cottages of from three to
four rooms each, which are furnished and
rented by the week. 1t is expected that a
very large and costly hotel will be built
here in the spring.
The city is now engaged on a large and
comfortable brick school house, and the
Methodists are preparing to put up a
neat edifice. The town has two newspapers
the Herald and News, and besides these and
the advantages of a daily mail, which brings
them their daily papers on the day Of issue.
They have the benefits of telephone connect
ion with Arkansas City and Winfield.
had almost forgotten to say that the quick
est, easiest and best way to get here is to sc
to Arkansas City and come out on Charley
Thompson's hack. Il costs but tri1e and
is by far the best way, and the hack runs ev'
ery day. RALPH.

THE LAST ROSE OF SUMMER.

From the beautiful collection of full and
partly blown delicate tea roses found upon
our table yesterday morning, We conclude
that Charley Parson is one of the fortunate
fellows who is never compelled to sing ..The
Last Rose of Summer" for his roses bloom
all winter. In the collection sent us yester,
day morning are twelve varieties, and nc
two of the same color. The dew and frost
of the morning was still on them, and i
would be hard to imagine anything more
beautiful while their fragrance filed oul
sanctum. Charley Parsons success as {
cultivator of fine tea roses has been alluded
to before in these columns and many Of oul
people know that he is prepared to supply
any one with the choicest and healthies'
plants, correctly named in every instance.

OLD LETTERS.

OLD LETTERS.
I've been reading to-day the old letters,
Whose pages are blotted with tears,
And the in has grown dim in the shadow
And silence of swift-hying years.
Here is one from the kindly old mother
Who watched from the portals of home
With eyes heavy laden with tear drops,
The feet that would willingly roam.
Dear mother, you vet wait the coming
OF the truant birds back to their nests,
And Your feeble arms fam would enfold then
Close, close, TO your kind, loving breast.
OH never till the hour We roam
With darkness around-above,
Learn we TO prize that hottest boon,
A mothers tender love.
"Camp Pierpont," the next one is dated;
He fell with his face TO the foe;
The Shenandoah will murmur forever,
The 6irge Of his requiem SO low.
Here's one from the pet of the household,
The youngest, the brightest, and best,
Whose feet early crossed DER the river.
And found the still mansions of rest.
A dimly scrawled page lies before me,
The maine of loved one trace.
Back, tears. to the well-spring Of sorrow,
The valley clod blooms DER his fate.
It's only when loved lips are cold
We mourn with sad, and vain regret,
Mid myriad memories Of old
The cherished DAYS forever set.
All strange that we hoard these poor treas
ures.
Whose memories bring us but tears;
All. life and its fast fading pleasures,
Reaches back through the long distan
years.
The friends who were with us in sprins
time
Whose presence no more We may greet,
Will be first TO welcome our coming
When over deaths threshold we meet.
Mrs. NJ. L. LEASE.
