o. b. Bentley returned Sunday morning
from Dodge City where he had been called
on business connected with the Cattle King
railway. Tho is new line which the cat
tlemen propose to build from Dodge City
to Englewood. MI. Bentley is the attorney
for the company. This line will be fifty
one miles long and will be almost purely
cattle road. 1t is believed that its yearly
shipments will aggregate 100000 head.
While in Dodge City party was made up
which visited Englewood, the new town on
the Territory line in Clark county. Engie-
wood Is laid out on the plan of Wichita, it
had the Douglas avenue and Main street.
The town contains at present sixty-two
buildings, among others the Cattle King
hotel, containing forty rooms and costing
$500, Englewood was laid out by Messrs.
Friend & Osborn, Of this city. Many
Wichita men are now there. Z. A. Reiman
is running thrifty real estate Office there
and Mr.. John Gordon is building two fine
business blocks in the town. Clark county
is growing fast; thrifty and prosperous towns
\
are growing; Ashland, Englewood, Vesta
and Appleton are prosperous and growing
trading points Mr.. Bentley saw sod
corn growing in Clark county
which will yield forty bushels
per acre. Mead county, directly west of
Clark county, is growing very fast. r L.
Walker, of Wichita; Mr.. Lindsey, Of An
thony; Capt Nip, of Winfield; Hon. F. Z.
Gillette, OF Kingman; Hon. Radolph, Hat
field and many others in Sedgwick, Butler.
| Cowley and Summer counties are actively
interested in Clark and Mead counties,
have property interests there, and real estate
in the growing towns. The soil Of Clark
and Mead counties is apparently as fine as
Sedgwick caunty, and the rainfall this year
in these counties has been greater than in
Sedgwick county. Among the party from
Dodge City to Englewood was Messrs.
Severy and Purcell, directors of the Atchi-
son, Topeka and Santa Fe railroad, with
their engineer. The Atchison, Topeka and
Santa Fe evidently proposes to occupy that
territory. They had driven carefully over
the line from Dodge City to Englewood As
surveyed by the Cattle King railroad COM
pany's corps of engineers.

Mr.. L. II. Stogdill, son of the late Rev.
Stogdill, pastor of the NJ. f. church of this
city in 1875 and who died and was buried
here, made us call yesterday. Young Mr..
Stogdill, who has been in the employ Of the
Santa Fe road for long time, says that his
mother and younger brother, William, are
both dead and buried in Ohio. His sister
married and went to the Pacific coast. The
other brother lives in West Virginia. Thus
in few years have the family been scat
tered and divided. Mrs. Stogdill was lady
of literary tastes and attainments. The
father, who was a more than ordinarily
gifted public speaker, was yet of very
sensitive and nervous make up, and when he
died it WAS thought by some of his friends
that his last illness was induced by the I'M
restrained wickedncss and open violation OF
every sacred law which he was compelled to
witness daily with no power to restrain.

BROKE HIS LEG.

Mr.. A. G. Stats, superintendent OF the
street railway met with a serious accident
yesterday. He was driving one of the street
cars drawn by pair of wild mules and the
harness becoming entangled he jumped
down from the car and got in between the
mules to fix things. The mules began to
jump and kick about and Mr.. Stats to save
himself threw himself suddenly back and in
the action broke his left leg clear off at the
ankle joint. Mr.. Stats said to an EAGLE
reporter that he knew no surgeon in this
city could set the limb, therefore he sent
for no doctor but buckled on a stump of q
wooden leg and went on about his business
Is much as if nothing had happened 20 him.
1t was an artificial limb.
