FAREWELL SERENApE

Yesterday morning about an hour before
train time large number of friends of Mr..
and Mrs. Chris Kimmerle, collected at their
residence for parting farewell before their
departure for Europe. Simons' band also
repaired to the residence and amid the leave
taking played some appropriate selections.
A large number of friends in carriages es-
corted our friends to the depot, and the
band played "Home, Sweet Home" Mr..
Kinmerle and his good lady were overcome
by these tokens of love and esteem on the
part of their fellow citizens and could not
speak their thanks. Mr.. Kimmerle felt that
be would like to see the old land, but it was
with many feelings of regret that he parted
with his host of warm friends.

MARRIAGE BELLS.

Hon. j. NJ. Balderston and Miss Jennie
NJ. Boyle, were married at the residence of
the brides parents North Fourth avenue,
by Rev. J. ID. Hewett at o'clock yesterday
morning. The marriage was a quiet and
sly affair and the happy pair skipped out Of
town by the first train they could get. For
a month back, many suspected Jake con-
templated something rash but he stole a
march on everybody all the same. The
EAGLE extends congratulations but it is
somewhat doubtful if they overtake the
happy pair.
By the Rev. John Halter, at the German
Methodist parsonage, Mr.. Henry Stetzel to
Mrs. Lnuisa Miller both of this city.

A GENEROUS ACT.

In view of the fact that chldren's day had
generally been observed at the churches of
the city, Mr.. I. II. Lynch conceived the
idea night before last of treating all the
children at the Catholic school entertain
ment at the opera house to everything to be
found upon the refreshment tables on that
occasion at his expense. He collected all
the children and marshaled them to the ia
bles, waiting upon them himself, and longed
for more little ones to enjoy his generosity.
This was most generous and commendable
act and Mr.. Lynch will be kindly remem-
bered by all the bright little ones who shar-
ed in the feast.

The writer visited Wichita the first part Of

quainted with the forest city, the metropo.
lis Of Southern Kansas. In giving this
passing notice .se cannot fail to speak OF
the Manhattan. This magnificent building
is located on Douglas avenue, is just com.
pleted, and furnished, and is one oft finest
hotels in Kansas. Through the kindness OF
Mr.. Davis, who is in the Office, we were
shown through the house. The rooms are
finished with snow white walls, the base
boards and castings are paiuted blue. The
floors are all covered with handsome Brus-
sells carpets and furniture to match. The
proprietors, Roberts Brothers, will have O
grand opening about the LIST of July. The

perhaps further west. Reports have also
reached us of damage TO railroads west and
south. There was considerable wash-out
on the Santa Fe, between Wellington and
Caldwell, which prevented the passage Of
the passenger train south yesterday morn

by special train the. evening previous and
was unable TO return with his special

night. A wash-out on the Wichita snd
Western is also reported, and trains are de-
layed. The Sunfower is also washed out in
two or three places west and all trains are
delayed.
LATER.-The train on the SunAower
road, due here at 9:2T a. m. from the west,
did not get through at all. The bridge over
Slate Creek near Conway Springs was near
ly washed away, and a force Of men had
been 10 work on it all day. One man fell
into the stream, and 80 swift was the cur
rent that he was carried down q considera-
BILE distance, and had il not been for help he
would have drowned. Late in the evening
this bridge was repaired SO as to allow the

TO Clearwater, about mile and half. A
train was sent from here TO Clearwater for
the passengers and they arrived here at IL
o'clock last night. Mr.. VIM. Cassell, of
this city, who was on the train, said that the
Minnesota bridge shook as they walked
across and grave fears are entertained that
it will be carried away again. The water is
very high and the current is strong. A
train with all the available force that could
be gathered up here went out at IL O'Clock
last night, 1t will be a very serious blow to
the Fort Scott road if that bridge goes out
again.

FOR THEM WHO LOVE

Capt. j. NJ. Balderston, our handsome and
popular county attorney, returned yester-
day to the city, accompanied by her whom
he had so lately sworn to love and protect.
Our friend did the nuptial act SO cleverly
that his most intimate acquaintance were
taken most completely by surprise, but the
good wishes for him and his fair bride will
be none the less in number or heartiness.
Al love, it is said, is like generous wine at
first, and is not fine until it ferments and
frets, but we express the hope that the low
ingly yoled pair Of whom we write these
lines will ever find theirs rich and pure and
free from all settings, and that il will never
grow colder, though older Almighty love,
how it exquisitely blesses; for love is liberty
and natures law.
"Adieu, for him,
The dali engagements of the busting world
Adleu, the sick lmpertinence of praise.
And hope ana action. for with her alone,
BY streams and shades, TO steal these sighing
hours,
Is all he asks, and ali that fate can give"

funniest as well as philosophical new lee
lures, entitled the Temptations of Smith, I"
which has been heard in long time. He
captured the thinking and literary inclined
people of Topeka last week with his delight
full lecture. Early next month he tells the
story of Smith and his ups and downs to an

THE ARROW.

The initial number of "The Arrow" q
bright weekly six column folio society pa
per, sparkling with gems of original matter,
also the choicest selections of current litera-
ture, lies upon our table. Lon Holding, late
city editor of the Beacon, is the editor and
proprietor. The Arrow is full of choice
family reading, and should obtain large
circulation in both city and county. Mr..
Holding is highly entertaining writer and q
journalist of large experience, and will con-
tinue to improve the Arrow until it will be
sought by all lovers of choice, pure litera-
ture in Southern Kansas. We wish the
Arrow all the success it deserves.

Mr.. Dunbar has got two young wolves at
the stable on Water street, and he claims
they are nice pets. The other day friend
suggested that he had better look out for
his chickens. Mr.. Dunbar rather lost con-
fidence in his pets but concluded to test their
propensities for poultry by putting them
in his chicken house. Mr.. d. is no longer
engaged in raising fowls, but he has two
very fine old boosters that ought to belong
TO man who is in that business.

Certain facts gathered from two reliable
gentlemen who occupied chairs in Smiths
barber shop at the time the trouble arose
between the BARRIERS, in which the colored
man got knocked down, plainly indicate
that Mr.. Smith was perfectly blsmeless in
the matter. and it is a matter of surprise
that the colored barber should have him ar
rested. In the light of recent developments
it would appear that as far as the assault
goes Crenshaw was the prime mover in the
mstter. There is no doubt the man Bugby
had used him mean, but that is no reason
why he should go into Smiths shop and
raise disturbance.

As reporter sat upon a box on Main

hand, and on the ragged edge of destruction
because of the scarcity of items, a stranger
approached him and asked: "Are you re-

Under the head, "How it works." the
Beacon last evening published q squib about
the filth at the east end of the Arkansas
bridge,in which it says that when that paper
referred to the matter in former issue, the
"EAGlE made ridicule OF the Beacon for so
doing, instead of agreeing that il was nuis-
ance and ought TO be absted." Not SO. We
said at the time that we protested against
that filth being unloaded there last winter,
and that we were glad the Beacon began to
realize the importance of sanitary measures.
The great organ further exultingly says that
now there is a signboard posted at the end
OF the bridge, signed by the board of health,
forbidding persons depositing offal or filth
of any kind under penalty of the law. j.
c. Richey, chairman of the health board,
called our attention TO that board the morn
ing after the Beacon first thought of that
thing being a nuisance, and we made men
ton Of It at The time, and we also said the
council had requested the county commits
sioners 10 abste that nuisance six weeks
before the Beacon opened its eyes TO the
matter. What we said further in the matter
at that time was the substance of a CONVEX
saiion with Mr.. Richey and we so stated at
the time. The Beacon has a poor memory

4 Special Policeman Commands Three Men
to Halt and Is TJlored-One Han ShOt.
Early yesterday morning the attention of
Special Policeman Patrick Hurry was attracted
10y pistol shots in the vicinity OF the Falls
hotel, or the Milwaukee freight depot. The
special went with all haste toward the place
whence the reports came, and discovered
three men. The men at once started on a
swift run. and the officer commanded them
to halt but they rau with increased speed
The officer then fired at the retreating figures,
hitting John Moore in the right thigh. Being
shot the man halted while the other two soo1
disappeared in the darkness. The man was
taken to the lookup, where his wound was
dressed, after which he was removed TO ST.
Baruubas hospital. His injury is not CON
sidercd serious.
Special Hurry was at once placed under ar
rest and the case will be given a searching
Investigation. Yesterday afternoon, after re-
naming in the lookup over night,
he was released on $500 bonds,

court this morning. Mr.. Hurry states that
he was influenced by the impression that
the three men whom he found on Second
street had perpetratcd or had been impli-
Gated IN Il crime in which some one had been
shot. sud he thought it his duty to effect an
arrest at whatever cost Others express the
opinion that the officer acted with great in

in the District Court.
Tuesday afternoon. May %, 1888, Thomas
Ryan and Thomas Hauley met at the corner
Of Minnesota and East Fifth streets, in st.

them, Hanley drew revolver and fred, the

ley followed him and fired again, the BAL
this time striking Ryan in the head and
mortally wounding him so that he died five
hours later. The two had been partners in
the blacksmithing business, but had dissolved,
and the conversation which preceded the
shooting was concerning the business affairs,
Hanley accusing Ryan of cheating him. The
case was tried in st. Paul, but the jury disa-
greed. A change of venue was obtained
from Ramsey to Hennepin county, and the
case was set for trial at the October term. 1t

Minneapalfs Sporting Notes.

Since the st. Paul club has dropped from
the league, Minneapolis is somewhat in
doubt respecting what course to pursue. The
club is ready and anxious to go ahead. but
dropping St. Paul leaves an odd number of
clubs in the league, which is impracticable.
However, it is probable that some other city
may take the place made vacant and our
club retained.
The Minneapolis club did not meet on
Saturday night in the Nicollet house, owing
to the fact that the Driving Park association
met there, but has concluded to meet this
evening at s O'Clock.
W. s. Walker will leave the first Of this
week to join the Clevelands, for which team
he will stand behind the bat.
Foster and Camel are in Philadelphia hard
at work. Their Minneapolis friends and adj
mirers expect they will make proud record
in the National league this season.
The Minneapolis club is now DESTROYS of
signing William O'Brien, who was to have
played with the st. Pauls.
