POLICE COURT

John Stewart and Joe Rush were on al
old time bender Tuesday night, and in con
sequence were up before Judge Glenn, yes
terday, who put them down as plain drunk:
with charge of SO and costs each.
The various degrees Of drunkenness are
not very clearly defined in the police court
in fact, the reporter has learned of only two
kinds, one plain drunk, the other first.
class drunk. He has noticed that When
John Doe sails in il is generally for a first
class drunk; when a common Jake is caught
in the tolls like Joe Rush or Jack Stewart
why, il is as natural as life that the court
looks benignly over his specks and says
"Ah, plain drunk"
Now, George Russell, colored youth, to
FAME and fortune stranger, with only his
color to recommend him to special favor
was up yesterday for being drunk
lie looked in vain into the benev-
client face OF the court for
a decision that would be elevating in its ma
ture, and when that officer pronounced it Il
plain drunk" his heart failed him, he
could not be put down as tirst-class drunk,
and in consequence, had lost his standing as
a heightened colored gentleman.
Mary Nellan, colored dame, was in the
court yesterday with mournful tale OF
complaint against Jack, the no foot colored
man who walks on pads on his knees, for
knocking her down. \ warrant was issued
for him, and he was produced in court to
explain his actions in the matter to-day.

SHOWING TIE QUEER.

II il Just barely possible that there Is n
little crook in the complaint against the
man Crawford, arrested for passing $50
counterfeit bill on the evening of the day
before yesterday. \ reliable gentleman
who claims to have the straight story gave
it away to an EAGLE reporter yesterday.
His version of the affair is that the man
pstronized the bawdy house kept by Lizzie
Dale, alias Lizzie McCormic, and gave the
woman $40 note, receiving SIS in change.
Tha: afterwards the keeper of a joint, who
hangs out at TIM Dale ranch, pronounced
the bill counterfeit, and then the Dale
woman came down town and reported it to
the police. Three or fonr of the guardians
Of the peace, with the Dale woman were
flying around the Douglass avenue depot and
that part oftown at lively rate, but failed
to catch the man of the counterfeit bill,
until in the evening when he was about to
take the train for Newton, when Dan Parks
grabbed him by the subsequent end Of the
pants as he was about 10 take the train. The
bill was subsequently, found to be all right
as well as all the money the man had on
him, and if there is any counterfeit money
among the layout, either the women or the
pimp must be the owners oft.
If this man can bring any proof of his
good character, the boot may be put on the
other foot, because the character of the
nroseriltinp witness Is well known in this
community.

ELECTRIC LIGHT.

Aside from fine buildings and lively
trade, perhaps nothing serves to show city
off TO better advantage than electric light.
Ii is an excellent advertisement for a city,
besides the advantages TO the people them
selves.
The principle objection the system has
met with here by the council, is that they
sre opposed to granting franchise to a
foreign company, which is sensible view o:
the case.
Mr.. J. c. Kennedy, who is here repre-
senting the Van Depole electric light COM
psny, says they are willing that a joint
stock company be formed here, and all the
stock owned in this city. That his oompa-
ny VIII put in the plant, and build their
works here. That the amount Of
stock would not exceed the actual
cost, 50 that there would be no
watered stock. This amount Of stock. he
says would not exceed $4,000. In Spring
field. Mo-, only $3.50 stock was issued.
OR ne says if the city will accep. twenty
lights at $40 each per month, and that he
can get thirty business houses 10 :ske
lish; each, st the same rate, he viii put in
the plant and give the city six miles of
wire.
This would save the wages of lamp
lighter, and all the lights in the city could
be set going in sn instsn; BY turning on the
the electric current.

THE GRAIN TRADE.

But few of our own people have any idea
of the grain handled in this city. But few
loads are seen on the streets each day, and a
casual observer would suppose that there
was little doing in that line.
A reporter seeking information on the
subject yesterday, paid visit TO the various
mills and elevators, where he gathered the
following:
At the city roller mills. he was informed
that the capacity of that mill when running
day and night, was $50 barrels of -four in
the "a hours. This at 4! bushels per barrel
would consume 1,515 bushels per day, but
they are now running on half time, there
fore they use 7S7 day. The Diamond
mills and the Hydraulic mill combined, use
about the same quantity as the City mills. The
custom mill on the west side uses about $50
bushels a day. BY this statement it will be
seen that the four mills nse up LIS bushels
per day.
Entering Todd's elevator office the report
er enquired, 'how much grain do you
handle in day"
"Well We average about ., 900 bushels al
together. Fully one half of this comes by
rail from outside towns"
sis this all wheat
80, no, that includes wheat, corn and
oats
"ls this grain consumed here.'
mo, only in part, We get some orders
from our local mills, but the most of it we
| ship. The wheat goes for the most part TO
Toledo Ohio, the corn to St. Louis and the
oats south"
The old Zepher mills was next visited.
Hawn, Glaze * Churchward are the pro-
prietors and they were found in the Office.
"Whst are you doing here" the reporter
asked"
90, we are busy all the time"
"Iou grind good deal of corn and oats.
| believe
"Well, yes; but We are not making spec
ialty of that now. We have turned the mill
into an elevator. The elevetor bushes is
growing rapidly in this city, and with the
accession of another railroad or two this
will become an important trans-shipping
point. Last week we shipped thirty-seven
cars of corn and oats"
where do you ship"
.Our trade is over large scope of terri
tory, including Colorado, New Mexico, All
IONA. Arkansas, Mississippi and other south
ern states
John Miltner's elevator was next Wis
tied
In reply to question. Mr.. Miltner said:
1--WE average about seven cars day. We
handle wheat, corn and oats. The elevator
interest is rapidly growing in this city and
next year vow will see some
big elevators built here. We have buyers
in all the surrounding towns. The reporter
had not time 10 visit the elevator on the
west side on the Fort Scott road, but il |
probably handles 1000 bushels per day. |
According TO this summary, it will be seen |
tha; between the mills and elevators there |
are about SIPS bushels of grain handled |
per day in this city, which would be ST.
$50 bushels per week, or >, 1e2.2 200 bushels |
per annum. which Is no small quantity

WICHITA AND FORT SMITH.

A reporter interviewed prominent Ar
kansas citizen from Fort Smith yesterday,
in reference to the sentiment of the people
in that city in relation to building the pro-
posed line, uniting the two cities. Among
other things, be said: "Tbe people of
Wichita do not wholly appreciate the ad-
vantages such road would be to this city
or the southern portion of Kansas. II
would open up large territory of fine tim
Der lands at very short distance from the
southern border of your state, the lumber
of which is now of no intrinsic value. At
Fort Smith and southeast to the Mississippi
| river, large quantities of lumber, both oak
and pine, can be loaded on cars at from Sc
to SO per thousand. Then, again, Fort
| Smith is in the center Of some of the finest
coal beds in the United States, and for that
alone the building of this road would be an
important factor in advancing the interests
Of southern Kansas
In speaking Of the advantages TO Wichita,
which would result from the building of
this road, he said:
"A direct line from Wichita to Fort
Smith would complete the Arkansas Val
ley road from Wichita TO :he Mississippi
river at a point forty miles below the
mouth of the Arkansas river, at point on
the great river below freezing point and
below all bars that impede navigation, and
that too, at about the distance from Wichi-
ia to St. Louis, providing a market for the
grain, pork and stock, products in the cot
ton belt that is now supplied from the Up
per Mississippi Valley. In return for these
products of Kansas the lumber and tropical
products would return direct, to meet the
wants Of this country. \ residence in the
state of Arkansas has convinced
me thst the Arkansas Valley Rail
road from Wichita to the Mississippi river,
running through varied soil, climate and
products of coal and timber, will be the
most useful and benificent factor in the de-
velopment of this productive valley that
can be conceived"
On an inquiry Of the reporter as TO the
feeling of the people at Fort Smith in re-
gard to this road, he said
"The people of Fort Smith will use
every enGeavor TO have their representatives
act in congress to procure the right Of way
through the nation on the assembling of
congress. They understand the importance
of having this road extended into the rich
agricultural grain-lands of Kansas, and will
use all their energies for its accomplish
ment."
The reporter asked if Wichita was the
point at which the people of Fort Smith
aimed as a terminus of the road, TO which
he replied:
''Our people understand well enough that
Wichita is now and forever will be the
metropolis of Kansas, and certainly will
not favor any other point; in fact, it is the
anchor on which we base our hopes. No
other point in Kansas would answer but the
