time ago TO make plat OF Wichita FOR the
purpose of numbering the houses, com
pleted the work some weeks ago. The plat
is made on the Philadelphia system, giving
TO each block one hundred lots. There is

Advice to Stage-Struck Girls.
BY MADAM JANANsCHEK.

II think that not one.tenth, perhaps not one
hundredth, of the great artistic talent born in
t. the world ever comes to the surface, and 1
think that all really great artists-paintsrs,
sculptors or aGtors-are born SO. But our art
is like every other. To attain eminence in it
means hard work, long study, and much dis.
enlargement. Look at Rachel, who began by
playing and singing in the Streets At that
time all her talent was pent uD in her and had
no chance to show itself. Siddons's career
was the same hard work first, and then sue
cess.
OF course it occasionally happens that an ac-
tress by her attractive appearance, and the
whlm OF the public, rises into momentary
prominence. But she soon sinks down again,
like bubble with nothing in it. When youth
and beauty OF feature has gone, then the true
metal shines out, and art, If there be any a.,
must then assert itself.
But opportunities for young people are be-
coming rarer every day, and the path which
they have to tread, instead of being made
smoother by the many who have gone over it,
becomes rougher every day. Even If knew a
young girl to have talent, even great talent,
should advise her and entreat her to keep
away from the stage, for her own happiness
Everything is shftess and unmethodical.
There are no more stock companies in which
young artist can play one thing until she has
perfected herself, and gradually rise as vacan-
cies occur. Every company is travelling rush
ing from town to town, two matinees a week,
and sometimes, in the West on Sunday. A play
only lasts for season of few weeks, and is
dropped for something else, aud even during
that time the poor beginner has no time to
study, for as soon as she is off the stage she is
on the cars, with hardly time to Dress
What life for young girl, living in hotels
and going home late at night, exposed to all
temptations, with no home influence to coun-
teract them. AS 1 said, the best thing for a
young girl to do, no matter how great she ex-
poets to become, is to keep away from the the
atre, and do anything but go upon the stage
That is what tell them ALL"

to go ahead. fortunately this disease is not con-
tagious.
Now, would advise those good friends, even George

Who was fairly beaten at Chicago, and so badly

Two Good Stories Of Logan.

H. V. Boynton in the Cincinnati Commercial Ga
zette.
A chapter about Kenesaw at once illustrates
his care of his men and his deep-seated aver
sion to exposing them unnecessarily, and fur
nishes some interesting history. With Gener-
al MCPHERSON, he was at General Sherman's
headquarters when the assault at Kenesaw
was decided upon. He at once protested
though at first scarcely believing that the in
tention to make the assault was earnest
When ne discovered that 1t was really con-
templated, he emphasized his protest, coup
ling 1t with the opinion that to send the troops
against that mountain would only result in
useless slaughter. Finding his opinion likely
TO be d1sregarded, he went still further and de-
clared it to be movement which, in his iudg-
ment, would be nothing less than the murder
OF brave men. In all of this he was warmly
seconded by General Mcpherson They did
not succeed in averting the slaughter But af-
terward, when officers in the Army of the Cum
berland heard that General Thomas's protest
In regard to the same matter had been in SINH
lar terms to that of Logan, stronger liking
IMAM ever Tor Logan prevailed among those of
fcers of the Cumberland Army who knew the
1acts. thus he ever sought to protect his men
whenever he saw that they were likely to be
needlessly exposed.
There was another and later event of great
Importance that raised him high in the estima-
tion of the friends of General Thomas. He
had been cut off from joining his command for
the march to the sea, and subsequently report
ed to City Point for orders He reached there
just after the first order for General Thomas's
removal before Nashville had been telegraphed
to Washington, and its PRONUNCIATION DELAYED
For the second time General Grant had become
exceedingly impatient, and decided to remove
Thomas. Upon the appearance of Logan,
Grant ordered him to proceed at once to Nash
vile and await orders His instructions con-
templated his relieving General Thomas, if on
his arrival no attack had been made upon
Hood. Here was most brilliant position Of
tered-that OF commander of the Army of the
Cumberland, just as it had been reorganized
and put in order for battle, and stood in its
trenches ready fer the word to advance Had
ambition alone actuated him, here was the op-
portunity OF a lifetime of active service. But
instead OF obeying the spirit of his inst. uctons,
he proceeded with such elaboration as to prove
beyond room for cavl that self-seeking was
not the motive which controlled Logan in the
war. He moved to his new post without un-
due haste. He seemed to appreciate the stu
alton far better than Grant himself His leis-
urely journey to Nashville gave time for the
battle to open under Thomas. And when it
opened Logan telegraphed announcing the be-
ginning OF Thomass success aud asking to be
ordered to his old command
