There is a want Of social life in Wichita,
that is of every day friendly Intercourse.
This i marked more especially as between
the older and the newer residents and is to
be deprecated. 1t is a very hard matter for
newcomers TO get acquainted and when we
remember that in fact more than one-half Of
all our people belong TO that class it will be
readily understood why it is such difficult
matter to get acquainted. In every old-set-
tied community every newcomer Is noted
and il he or she is found worthy everybody
/ is anxious TO exhibit the amenities of social
life, but in community like Wichita few
know who the newcomers are, where they
are from or what their claims Of recogni-
ton may be- The result is a very cold and
formal intercourse, if, indeed, there be any

Of some old community where their whole

Settlers association and their mutual old

times, not only for the strangers but fol

coIners especially remember that nearly ev.

much or more TO break this restraint than
any other persons or organizations, and We
hope they won't forget our words or th,
fact nor the causes which lead to it. Let u
be more sociable.

CONGREGATIONAL SERVICE


Mr.. Harper preached last Sabbath morn

yesterday. today and forever" lie spoke
of the hunger Of the human soul for some
thing enduring. Ii fails to find this in ua-
ture. Philosophy has nothing to oil;I
Reason despairs. Hope WAS born in thu
mangcr. In Jesus we find no; long con;iuu-
ance, but eternal existence Either John
WIS derived by Christ or this Is true. Nature
is but Chrisi's garment. 1t changes but he
remains ever the same. Changes are taking
place in society. We are not ourselves. what
We once were. The portraits on our walls
are unlike the faces of;o-dav. The dreams
Of our youth are demolished. our very nat
lures change. Men rise out Of poverty into

LITTLE ORLEANS.

An episode in religious circles oc-
Cured here which will, no doubt, in
terest the readers of The HERALD.
Rev. Idleman, who has charge of the
Methodist Church on the Maryland
side of the river, was forbidden by
Henry Apple to come on his place.
Mr.. Idleman, disregarding the order,
went there one day to see Mrs. Apple
who is sick. Mr.. Apple met him be-
fore he reached the house and order
ed him to go away. -Idleman then be-
came angry and struck Apple with a
stick. Apple, who it seems was pre-
pared for the encounter, struck Idle
man several blows with stick, which
caused the Reverend gentleman to
beat hasty retreat, leaving Apple
master of the field. Apple, subse-
quently, had him arrested, but he was
allowed to go at liberty without bail,
on the promise that he would appear
on the day of trial The trial came on
but he did not appear. This puts the
Deputy Constable, who had charge of
him, in serious predicament. The
matter will, no doubt, cause all parties
considerable trouble before it is end
ed.
The river rose suddenly this week,
and became high and very muddy.
1t is now beginning to fall.
