20 the Editor OF the Eagle
The columns of the EAGLE have not
been made acquainted with The pros
periiy of our city as much as we
would like 10 see. But if we remain
silent il is not because there is no
news; the fact is, everybody is too
busy TO take notice of what is going
on around them. We will not take
time 10 speak of the private improve
ments, which have been going forward
rapidly, but onIy those pertaining TO
the public welfare. The European ho-
tel has becn vacated by the for mer
landlord, Savers, aud IS now undergo
ing a complete system of renovation.

The canning factory will begin at

To the Editor of the Eagle.

night.
The only possible fault TO be found
with this weather is-its a litflc too
dry.
The corn market has been booming
in Goddard this week. Corn has
been brought here from beyond Clear
water
Those wishing to cultivate the &C
quaintance Of newly arrived young
ladies should call at Miles Reeses, in
the city, or Charley Wolfs, south of
town. Both of these young ladies
| will be "swect sixteen" in A. ID. 1901.
Mr.. and Mrs. Halderman are also hap
py, but theirs is boy.
This is the best grain market in the
county, better prices being realized
here than at any other point.
Roger Williams has been resident
of Goddard all his life That is about
a week.
Ed. Hughes left here this week IN
debt to his landlord, but when the
constable followed him he planked
down the filthy lucre
E. J. Pyle and family left for Garden
City this week, and VIM. Coleman and
family will follow them in a day or
two. These are two of our best fam
lilies and we regret 10 lose them. Our
loss is Garden City's gain.
There will be Thanksgiving sup
per at the opera house Thursday eve
ing.
Our Baptist friends will hold an
oyster supper soon.
Rev. +. w. Beach is holding series
of meetings at Jamesburg, which are
proving very interesting.
The Attica Literary society is at
tracing considerable attention.
Mr.. Black has opened shop in
Knotilock's building, for repairing
watches, clocks, jewelry, etc. He
seems to be gentleman and good
machanic.
Our artist has been unusually busy
this week.
1t is reported that James Baker, a
former resident of Goddard, is dead.
We would be glad TO hear that the
rumor is false.
Messrs. Allen, Brokaw and Hodge
went to Cheney, Thursday night, to
dance.
a. l.. Lyman, has rented the opera
house to AL Sutherland.
Some of the Goddarditcs want TO
attend the lecture at the new hub

there we want the EAGLE to say to
Mr.. Perkins, that if we can't laugh at
his lecture, we will cry at his funeral.
c. b. Beeson has opened tin store
AT his old hardware stand.
The city treasury is out of funds
and is likely TO be so, as the council
refused TO levy any property tax. All
the expenses must be met by money
raised by fines and occupation or
license lax Ii IS manifestly very un-
lust to make all the burdens TO be
borne by the city's industries
Mr.. Fox and Miss Van Horn are
teaching a good school, and giving, we
believe, universal satisfaction.

An assessment was made on the
stockholders of the 4. \. A. railroad

Washington arrives once more. a tie
pass over the entire line was issued to
the Attica Advocate yesterday, sub
ject however to cancellation.
Marsh Murdoch has written the di-
rectors for bend in the road large
enough to reach the mouth of the
Wichita sewers, where the fishing is
good, and stating further that the
road, being through line to the sum-
mer resorts in the neighborhood of
the north pole, would supply the miss
ing link in the great chain of roads de-
sired by the great mart of Sedgwick
counto, as it would open up an indus
try that the thousands of idle men in
Wichita could work at in Alaska dur
ing the winters, driving and smoking
ice for summer use in Wichita. as ice
was the only thing that never became
tly-blown in that city in the summer
time.
The directors will reply favorably to
the letter in a few days; then look out
for some spread eagle head lines, such
as, Wichita TO be connected with the

The Troy Chief, in declaring its res
olution TO indulge in no more mon
keying, tells great deal of truth
about the Democratic party, its nature
and habits. The Chief is perfectly
safe in predicting that some day the
Democratic party will make a hobby
of prohibition, but it will do so about
four years after prohibition has been
made a success in spite of Democratic
opposition. The Democratic party
was pro-slavcry party until slavery
was dead and rotten in its grave, and
it will be prO-whisky party until
the last distillery has ceased to make
even a smell under ground, and then
it viii! declare in favor of prohibition.

The BANK OF WICHITA is determined to
leave nothing undone that will secure per-
feet safety to their Depositors and them
selves. They have now in course of con-
struction one of the very best burglar proof
safes known to the makers of safes through
out the world.
The great problem is at last solyed in
making safe pawder proof as we'll as
burglar proof. Tdk safe has no holes run
ming through the door as is the case with all
other safes, but when closed is absolute
safety against powder, which deprives the
most skillful burglar Of even a shadow of
success. To this safe will be added the

Gated in Wichita proposes to devote his

cOnveniences so essential to civilized
enjoyments. Indeed the average Texan
seems never to have had one thought
foT either the comfort or convenience
of himself or family; he lives in an
open cabin maybe with "mOther earth"
for floor, lives upon the eOarsest diet,
stakes out his Mustang pony on the
grass for a living, while the only thing
he specially cares for is his equipsge for
himself and pony, which consists in
huge saddle of immense weight, often
withers, with saddle wallets attached
and a lesthern pouch a. the home of
his Winchester rifle, then with fifty or
sixty feet Of heavy rope attached to the
horn Of hrs saddle aad piece of the
same around the mustangs neck, and
himself attired in a broad brimmed
white hat weighing nearly as much a.
an ordinary hay shock, comparatively
speaking, then with leathern Overalls
or breeches i'm every ease extravagantly
decorated with rows Of strings that tie
nothing, then with his "slicker" over
all this and his six-shOOter in his belt
and "quirt" i'm hand he mounts, and the
first motion is to send his inhuman
spurs into the side OF his mustang.
which seems to know but one gait and
that is lope In which he seems to en-
gage the last remnant Of his strength.
for not infrequently his attired lord and
outfit would nearly equal the animal
in avoirdupois, and away he dsshes
with as much Importance as if he was
the principal owner Of the State, and
no doubt feels himself in possession Of
about all that is necessary TO real life
and happiness OF course in this de
scription We speak of the Texan to the
the manor born, or those who have
been here sufficiently long to be thor
Oughly Texanized. j. sc.

in this description, the meaning Of
which your Kentucky reader will not
understand, for instance ISicksr-it is a
huge, long, loose Overcoat, impervious
not only to rain but also to the I'M
friendly clutches of the impudent
stiekers and thOrns with which almost
every shrub and plant has been most
amply supplied by nature. Q,tirt is a
raw hide whip carried in the hand,
with which the mustang is persuaded
to continue his endless lOpe. j. :. G..

In Memoriam.

After a long and painful illness OF
typhoid fever, Mrs Maggie Hamilton
responded to the call Of Der Maker
February Sd, at her husbands home
near Beda, Ohio county. She leaves
a husband, three small children, an aged
father and four sisters to mourn their ir.
reparable loss.
Deceased made profession Of religion
while very young, but becoming dissat-
isfied lived in doubt for several years.
when she was again converted aud
lived until death consistent and pious
christian life, consisting not in profess
sions alone but in acts. AS a wife she
was affeetionate, gentle. kind; as
mother devOtedly fond of her children,
ever ready to respond to their childish
wants; as a DeighbOr she was accom-
modating, ever ready to relieve the
wants Of the needy. Attending the
sick seemed AN especial avocation; as
u friend she was openhearted and sin
cere, aud was one of IL few mortals
who possess the happy faculty of always
carrying the sunshine of their lives
with them. All who knew her well
mourn her irrevOcable loss, MIt to me
it comes AS a personal oss for / knew
her well aud she has been a kind friend.
She is gone, but we can truly say the
world is better for her having lived in
it. We may part here, but will meet
again where life is joy, and peace and
love ineomprehensible.
May the stricken husband rely solely
upon the Almighty in the hoursOf need
and bow meekly to the jispensation OF
righteous providence, and may he be
enabled to lead his bereft children early
To Him who has said he would be n
father to the fatherless.
''One more loved form has passed away,
One more tired body gone to rest,
And hands that did Iife's duties well
Are folded DEF an honest breast.
GRAZIA.

KLUKLUx
In Grayson County. A Few Facts.

For several years past that part of
Grayson county lying On the borders of
EdmOndson, and about 10 miles south
of Wildwood, has been the scene of in,
Vulnerable outrages, committed by a
band of masked and armed men styling
themselves Kluklux or Regulators.
Their numerous depredations and acts
of lawlessness have terrorized that part
of the county to such an extent that
people are actually afraid to speak
openly on the subject, and few have
mad the temerity to write the Sound
rels up, least the midnight vengeance
of the gang would be visited upon
them when it was least expected.
Their plan of operations is: fist To
send threatening letters to parties who
have in any way incurred their dis
pleasure. and should no attention be
paid to those threats, some moonless
night the house of their victim is sur
rounded, the doors forced and the object
of their displeasure is made to feel the
full force of their vengeance under the
unmerciful castigation' usually applied
on such occasions.
! Those who have the courage to open.
ly denounce their villainy, women of
doubtful character, and men who take
the world easy, or in other words, are
VIGOROUSLY lazy, generally are the vic
Tins of their midnight visits. Some
times they turn i'm and burn the cabins
ofthe unfortunates they aim to chastise,
which they have done on several
occasions, and sometimes they meet
! their match, as in the case that follows:
A family named Forbes, consisting
the father, mother, two sons and two
daughters, inhabiting log cabin on
what is called Bear Creek, incurred the
displeasure OF the band, and threaten
ing letters, warning them to leave the
country at given time, were sent
them, but the Forbes kept on the even
tenor of their way and paid not
the least attention to all the threats of
vengeance that were freely INDUCED in
by the gang. Finally, one dark night
last July, the occupants of the cabin
were reused from their dreams by the
presence of about twenty masked and
mounted men intent on wreaking their
vengeance on their unconscious victims
Part of the band dismOunted while the
others held the horses, and surrounded
the house; they tried to force an en-
trace, but by that time the Forbes had
armed themselves and stood on the
defensive. One volley of buckshot at
the party trying to force an entrance

proceeded To beat him numerically,
until at length tired out they left the
unfortunate creature mangled and
bleeding, with the parting injunction.
to see that he said nothing about the
dastardly outrage or they would come
back some other time and finish the
job by hanging him to the nearest tree
Graham was so badly injured by the
whipping that it was feared that he
could not possibly get over it, but hear
that he is now out of all danger and
getting well.
Since then the band has kept very
still, but il will not be long before
will have to record more of their mis-
deeds, which surely will, independent
of all consequences.
