NEW COUNTY MAP.

Some time ago mention WAS made in these
columns Of II new county map that WAS be-
ing compiled and perfected by the county
surveyor, J.W. Bear. II WAS said that this map
WAS intended to be and would be when I'm
ished the most complete and perfect work
ever prodGced of the county of Sedgwick.
Every feature that could be of moment or
interest was considered in the making Of
the drawing and nothing was left uhdonc TO
make it-for small rhap-a standard of
authority for correct information
or thoroughly reliable reference.
The drawing, when complete. was Il marvel
of the county with each and all of her many
recent additions, including College Hill and
the one spelled with a big Il. Also each
town in the banner county of the state The
water courses complete down to the merest
brook. The completed, surveyed and pro-
posed railroads. Churches, school houses,
cemeteries, postofiices, bridges, the large
ranches and fruit farms, and included e7en
hsh-ponds ant springs. ms made work
as complete in every respect, save the names
of the farms, any large map now in use,
and something Infinitely superior to any
thing Of hand-size ever issued of Sedgwick
county.
The drawing WAS some time ago sent on
to the Moss engraving company, Of New
York, and lithograph plate gotten up
from it. This plate has been received here,
and an issue of 10000 copies is now being
struck off at this office for Ii. 6. Lee, the
popular real estate dealer. 1t is expected
that the edition will run to 100000, AS it will
be source %; pride not only TO the county
but also to the state, aad must be adopted
as Sedgwick's standard hand map Orders
will be received by ii. &. Lee.

THAT SNIPE HUNT.

Nov that there has been so much said
about the snipe hunt We will give the whole
thing away. Our reporter WIS hired to 20
along and write the thing up. DR.. Nc
Adams came TO the reporters cage and
mapped out the whole plan and requested
the reporter to engage as war correspond
ent for the great expedition. The scribe and
the pill-slinger went together to Lawrence 5
drug store. where our hired man WAS treated
to pocket full of cigars. VIXEN the party
got 10 the edge of the brush he thought
he had earned his cigars and started
back to town, leaving all the fools behind.
OF course he filed his contract by writing il
Up, but the fun of the thing is that the
young man who held the bag was not sold
at all. He got back to the city before the
smart alecks, and when the cost Of the bag.
two pounds of candles. half box of cigars
and six bottles Of whisky are figured up. it
is easy to tell who was sold.

THE OKLAHOMA FARCE.

The Oklahoma farce is getting altogether
too monotoncu-. Nineteen fresh boomers
came up in the custody of the deputy United
States marshal night before last, and gave
bonds yesterday for their appearance a; the
next term of the United States district conrt-
The boomers have beer masquerading as
persecuted citizens so long that people are
getting tired of IT, In order 20 keei, up the
play batch surrenders to the United States
marshal every DAY or so and come to Wich-
ita to give bonds II they intend to
force their way through the troops to Okla
homa, as they say they will, why don't
;hey 20 ahead: Whats the use of coming
here Recent arrivals from Arkansas City
report good deal of disaffection among the
rank and file; they are getting tired OF this
dily-dallying and running back and forth
between Wichita and Arkansas City. 1t is
also said that Il large number Of them were
in favor of moving without the leaders, but
the proposition was voted down AZ meet
ing held for determining their best course.
II is about time they should do one thing
or the other, 50 as to bring the question to IL
final issue, SO that poor people who are
spending their money and time, can either
20 upon the lands or go home about their
business.
We are informed that Assistant District
Attorney Charles Hatton, Lieutenant Day
and Commissioner Shearman will go to
Caldwell this morning to confer with Gen.
Hatch.

DISTRICT COURT.

The district court has been running so
long this term that the wheels need oiling
up. \ reporter took look in yesterday
and beheId twelve good and loyal and pa
tient citizens leaning back in their chairs in
listless attituie. Judge Sluss looked tired
and frequently directed wistfui glances to-
wards the door and ever and anon pulled out
his watch. \ few stragglers sat around the
room and Mr. Stanley and Mr.. Ruggies
took turns in showing some sort Of map
up to the face of chap in the witness
box Ii seemed TO be all about some trouble
with water course. Mr.. Stanley:
did the water go onto Scott!" .'Ies." ="
..Did it 90 onto Ran om,'' "Yes." "Did it
lay on SCOTS bottom," Mr.. Ruggles: 81
object" So it went on. First one would
object and then the other, and so they kept
it up until we left.
In the case of John We've vs.. Thos. Me
Intosh, which went to the jury yesterday
morning, verdict was given 20 the plain
tiff for Sl7.0l.
VIM H. Ransom brought suit against
Garrison, Scott and Others for dam ming u
water course, and causing the farm of the
plaintiff to be thereby Hooded. When court
adjourned the plaintiff had introduced his
evidence and rested his case. Tie defense
interposed demurrer to the plaintiffs eyi-
uence, and this was being argued.

HUCKLEBERRY TIM.

j. l. Hoard, the agent of the Webster
Publs hing company of New York, who
will have charge of the subscription list Of
Mark Twain's new book, Huckleberry Tim,
arrived in Wichita yesterday. 1t is unnecessa-
ry for us to say to the readers of the GEN.
turv. who have read the first chapters of
this book, anything touching the absorbing
interest of this work which can only be had
ofsubscription agents. 1t has been the talk Of
the literary world for two or three months.
Al the rathos, all the humor and all the
grotesqueness of Mark Twain's mind has
been let losse m the chapters Of this book.
As mirror of peculiar American type Of
people residing IN the Lower Arkansas and
Ms sssippi river countries, nothing has ever
come from a pen 50 true and realistic
There is no laying down the book when
once taken up, and there Is no other way Of
securing it except through an agent Mr..
Hoard has been assigned five towns and be
can't stay in Wichita but for a few days.

WINNING WICHITA.
f Town that Never Gets
Left.
Colonel Milton Stewart Elected De-
partment Commander.

| The following telegram, received yester-
day afternoon, bore the announcement OF
another victory for our city, and for the
| men who represented the southwest
FoRr SCoTT, Kan, March L, 2:i0 ?. IN.
| To Col NJ NJ Gurdock
| We are at the front Stewart Is d~part-
ment commander. NooDCO' n
Most heartily do we congratulate the
"boys in blue" of Kansas, upon the c!-oice
made by them of their department COM
| mander in the person Of our fellow towns
man, Col Milton Stewart Of the seven
men who were candidates for majority of
the seven hundred votes cast, Col. Stewart
was the youngest. In the list of candidates
appeared the names of ex-Gov. Geo. I. An
thony, Major Wiseman aud General Tay-
lor, so that Garfield Post, and the friendly
posts of this and adjoining counties, who
warmly seconded the candidacy Of Col.
Stewart, may well plume themselves upon a
great victory.
II is our understanding that with the COM
membership goes the headquarters of the
states organization, the quartermaster's de-
partment, etc, and that also the selection of
Col Stewart brings this great body Of men
another year to Wichita. Ia this we may
be mistaken. If we are not then the result
of the election at Fort Scott is of still more
importance.
We clip the following brief summary of
Col Stewards military record from yester-
days Fort Scott Monitor
Col Milton Stewart, of Wichita, who is
prominent citizen of that growing metropo-
lis. Col. Stewart enlisted as private in
Co. X, ith w. Va. infantry, at Grafton, w.
Va, JGly Il, 1861. at the early age of eight
cen. In August. 1862. he was promoted to
captain of Company B, 18th w. Va. infan-
try, and in October, 1864. WAS promoted TO
lieutenant colonel Of the same regiment. He
was detailed as chief inspector on
staff of Maj. Gen. George Crook in
December, 1864, and was mustered out of
service June %, 1865. tie was taken pris-
oner near Big Sandy river in 1862. but short
IL thereafter escased. He was severely
wounded at Winchester, Va, September
l9, 1864. In November, 1868, he was COM
missioned captain of company X, troop l9.
Kansas cavalry (Indian service), and was
promoted to major the following spring.
He was elected first commander of Garfield
Post No. %, and served three successive
terms. He is member of the present
council Of administration. Although Yet
comparatively IL young man, he is n natural
military man and possessed Il high order OF
business capacity.

WHAT WE DRINK

Vow that the open saloon Is the shut sa-
loon, and as 4 consequence, some poor fell
lows are compelled to brace up on water, it
IS importan: TO know the makeup of the
water At 10 o'clock la,t night three young
men came into the reporters cage carrying
a sheet Of legal cap ireighted with evidence
of the iilthiness OF the water in the Little
river aboye the water-works. The whole
three signed the paper. We can't give it
yer batim, but the following is about the sub
stance: We went dUck-hunting up the Lit
tie river yesterday in IL boat. but soon the
looks of the water we have TO drink sicken-
el U.s. About "a half-mile below the first
bridge and above the water-works, We no
ticed a large hog pen extending nearly clear
across the river In this pen were not only
live hogs, but dead ones. We also found q
dead horse and decaying dog in the
stream. For the benefit of the people of
Wichita, We thought it our duty to make
these facts known.

WHEAT

From reports, personal and otherwise. we
would not be surprised if the fact is revealed
that a very large per cent OF growing wheat
had been killed during the winter. From all
sections Of the winter wheat belt of the west
ern states come intimations that the fields
have suffered. 4 very obserysnt gentleman
told us yesterday that he didn't believe that
southwestern Kansas would have more than
a half average stand in the fields. But we
will wait week or ten days before we al
tempt 10 give the facts.
