ANEW ROUTE 70 KANSAS CITY.

There is q proposition now pending before
the directors of the Fl Scott and Wichita
railroad to make new and direct line from
Wichita into Kansas City by constructing a
link between lie Roy, Coffey county and
Yates Center, Woodson county OF between
the former place and a point on the Fl. S.
& W. some six miles east of Eureka, the
county seat of Greenwood. 4 branch road
of the Missouri Pacific system is and has
been for some time OF erated between lie Roy
and Kansas City. The distance from lie
Roy TO Yates Center is eighteen or nineteen
miles and the distance from lie Roy to the
point on the Sunfower east Of Eureka is
thirty-two miles, that is these are the dis
tanees which the surveys for the roadbed
indicate. From Wichita to Kansas by way
of Eureka and lie Roy is thirteen miles
shorter than by the way of Yates Center
and lie Roy. besides the former route would
be through country unoccupied by any
road and susceptible of fine development.
The difference in the length of the lines of
Vic Il iilc .'COIL lEtlll w ltu-
ia TO Kansas City would be about twenty
five miles in favor of the Eureka connection
and about twelve or fourteen miles in favor
of the Yates Center connection. The direc-
tor referred to informed Us that propositions
covering these two proposed connecting
links would be submitted to and passed upon
by the board of directors at their next meet
ing the date of which we are not advised.

ATTENTION. COUNCIL

We respectfully invite the attention of
the council to scheme that We have had
something TO say about occasionally ever
since last fall, and by which from $500 70
$4,000 per annum may be easily secured BY
the city.
On several Occasions some Of our leading
stock dealers have signiied not only
their willingness but desire to pay IL
cense of 500 Per annum, provided the city
would pass an ordinance protecting them in
their business from the operations of Gyp-
sie>, travelling jockeys and irresponsible
traders, wis, as soon as the pasture is sufli-
cient 10 feed their animals, come into the
city in swarms with all manner of horses,
stolen, diseased, and SO forth. They bear
no responsibility aud bring the business into
dis-epute, thus injuring our dealers bust
ness. Such law would result
beneticially all round, the city would
gain by it; the d callers would gain by it and
purchasers would have the benefit of dealing
with responsible parties and our reputation
as live stock market would be assured.
This trade has assumed giant proportions in
this city. a prominent dealer told q re-
porter yesterday that this is the largest horse
and mule market west of st. Louis, not
barring Kansas City. The most Insignificant
peddler is compelled TO pay license TO do
business here. and why not tax these men
who are willing to pay. There are between
twenty five and thirty dealers all told in the
city, including livery stables where stock is
sold. In this way about $4,000 a year could
be obtained.
No trouble would be experienced in en-
forcing the law, as the marshal and his force
could attend TO it.

DoLPH STEAM LAUNDRY.

Passing up River street yesterday, . re-
porter came onto the Dolph Steam Laun-
dry, situated near the track of the Fort
Scott railroad. Seeing that steam was up,
he entered. and there found frst-class
laundry, with all the modern machinery in
full blast This laundry has not vet been
running week, and its existence ard loca-
ton are not generally known; notwithstand-
ing, they had large quantity Of garments
on hand yesterday and their corps Of help
were busy. Mr.. Z. K. Storer, a practical
laundryman, is the proprietor, and he show
ed the reporter around. The building is
20x30 feet, but Mr.. Stor er finds it already too
small, and will be forced TO build an addi-
ton. The machinery is run by beautiful
eight and a half horse power engine, from
the Rumsey Engine and Boiler works, st.
Louis. The rest of the machinery is from
the Dolph Steam Laundry works, Cincin-
natl, and is all new and works to perfection.
The washer is large cylindrical tub with
reversible motion, making four revolutions
one way, then reversing and making a cor
responding number of revolutions the con-
trary way. 1t has capacity of fifty shirts
at tire, and does its work thoroughly.
We witnessed the washing of batch and
they came out remarkably clean. The
wringer is cylindrical cone which makes
], 200 revolutions in minute. The garment
is thrown into the cylinder, and in a minute
is taken out perfectly dry. The "ironer" is
a perfect little machine with roller about
eighteen inches long and five in diameter,
with air and gas pipes attached, and is well
adapted for its work. Mr.. Storer ironed
some collars, cuffs and shirt to show how
it worked, and they were As well done as
any turned out BY the celebrated Troy steam
laundry, Troy, y. Y. \ corps OF hand
washers are kept at work to rub out any
dirt that might have escaped the washer,
and the greatest care to have the garment
perfectly clean is exercised. The drying
room is SxS feet, and consists Of a close box
room heated by steam pipes, the clothes be-
ing hung upon horses or racks that slide in
and out. The laundry has daily capacity
OF 1000 shirts. II stands high with the rear
towards the river, thus affording the best
facilities for passing of the dirty water. 1t
is first-class modern steam laundry in ev
cry respect and is worthy of patronage.

HE TOOK A TUMBLE.

There was quite an exciting time on
Fourth avenue yesterday evening. \ high
flying crank from the "blarsted' ilse of John
Bull, who was disporting himself on Il wild
mustang all over town, like wild Afghan,
to the terror and peril Of pedestrians, took a
shoot down Fourth avenue from Douglas
with his legs sticking cut like elks' horns
and his coat-tails flying in the air. About a
block south of Douglas avenue an Italian
from the Cork side Of the Rhine, whose
initials are Pat O'Gara. whose business is a
travelling dry goods store, and whose
avordupois is about 800 pounds, was
mounted on another mustang. The John
Bull, evidently installing Mr.. O Cara for an
Irish dynamiter or Russian. determined to
run him down, and accordingly dashed down
upon him like a cyclone. Mr.. oGara's
pony not relishing the onslaught,put his head
between his fore legs, bumped up his back
and began to plunge and buck until he sent
the slim merchant high in the air and he
landed in the mud with thud tina; shook

did on ours Y, sterday he would be collared.
