AMAZING OUR SYMPATHY.

The deplorable condition of our poor
neighbor across the street excites our pity.
1t held its aching head yesterday and
gave vent to its feelings in piteous tones that
have aroused our sympathy, and in fu-
ture We will give it pointers on how to get
news. The thing is simple enough. Secure an
efficient agent a. every point where anything
Of moment will probably occur and pay for
the dispatches Then, and not till then, you
will get the news. Our sick neighbor ap-
pears to have grasped the idea that the
EAGLE, in its mighty flight, dropped fir G
brand among them Red Skins just for tn G
sake of getting up an outbreak SO We
could advertise ourselves, knowing no
other paper in the world could get the facil-
tiles for catching the news as We could. OF
course we feel under many obligations to
our kind neighbor for letting its readers
know how powerful we are. We desire to
call the attention of our kind friend to the
fact that just to help the farmers out in the
price of wheat, We sent the EAGLE to the
car of Russia, in which was q hint to keep
his weather eye on John Bull, and the next
issue We sent to Mr.. Bull giving him 6
pointer on the designs of the bear, and the
result is, war will probably follow. Oul
power for good or evil is not confined to the
state, nor the nation for that matter, but we
precipitate war, check or accelerate emigra-
tion or cause cabinet crises among the
monarchies of Europe and Asia. OF one
thing our jealous neighbor may be sure
the EAGLE viii have the news, cost what il
may.

CHINESE CONTEST.

Yesterday Charlie Sing and his wrestler
got on a rampage against the house Of Lung
On Tel, who runs an opposition laundry on
Douglas avenue. Sing claims that he owns
Wichita exclusive of al other Chimanen by
virtue of discovery and as he established
his laundry here first claims his right to
regulate prices and other details of the
washee business. So he sailed forth with
his wrestler and attacked the house of Lung
On Tel and proceeded to close it up. In the
absence of Lung, Coon Lei had charge
and Sing started TO put Coon out OF the
house and when Lung came on the scene
there was sheol to pay and large crowd
claims to be Mclean mar and talked
English all the way through, but the Others
talked Chinese, and talked all at once and
such a conglamoration of language was
never heard in this locality since the Chey-
ennes left this part of their hunting grounds.
This thing went on until the owner of the
property asserted authority and pnt out the
Ling invaders and 9uelled the disturbance.
A reporter interviewed Lung from whom
he learned that Sing was determined to ex-
clude all other Cinnamon from the washee
business but himself Lung said, "me ale
same Mclean man, ire washee, ME no fghtee
me have policeman cletche him."

THE SEWERAGE QUESTION.

In our evening contemporary We find a
powerfully written article on this vexed
question, which suggests such practical
plans for doing the thing, ihst the council
unless thew are a lot of numbskulls-can
have the city as clean as a new pin right off.
Observe the bran new plan that the genius
who wrote the article, backed up by large
delegation of citizens, submits to the eoun-
ell: 1T is suggested that Douglas avenue
be severed west from Main street to the river
and east TO Chisholm creek" Again: "From
street cas-; there is gradual descent new
ideal while there is also q descent from
Main street to the river" We fear the de-
seen; is rather too gradual" Again We
quote: at is only question of how sew
ers are 10 be built that is pulling the au-
thorities." After getting the practical plans
laid down in this able article properly home
steaded, or pre-empted in their brains.
surely the authorities can solve the puzzle.

SERIOUS RUNAWAY.

Yesterday evening three young ladies,
Miss Belle Guthrie and her sister and Miss
Farnum, were riding down Topeka avenue
in buggy when their horse got frightened
and ran away with them down the avenue.
When they reached Second street at the
turn of the corner the buggy turned over
and the young ladies were thrown violently
to the ground, injuring each OF them, but
cutting the face of Miss Belle quite badly.
To say that they were badly frightened does
not express it; they were almost paralyzed
with fright They were helped up and
taken to their homes, and their injuries were
not alarming, but severe. The horse, at the
time the buggy turned over,got thrown down
and all lay in the road together. 1t was a
complete smash-up.
The city council are not at all puzzled as
TO the sewerage question. The question of
a complete system of sewerage for the city
has not been under consideration in the
council. The question under consideration
is the best means for abating the nuisance
on South Topeka avenue, and the only
puzzle taere Is about that is as to the cheap
est mems of doing it thoroughly. The
council is composed of practical men who
are all Gs.ply Interested in the matter, being
heavy property owners, and they will, we
have no doubt, arrive at a practical solution
of the trouble. The idea of reporters who
don't know enough to drain bsrnyard pre-
Stunning to suggest pointers on sewerage TO
these practical men is too absurd for any

KEROSENE.

About 7:30 o'clock yesterday morning
Mrs X. Johnesy, who lives at the corner of
Douglas and Washington avenues, east Of
the Santa Fe railroad, narrowly escaped
being fatally burned and having her house
burned also, the result of fooling with
kerosene oil. The fire in the kitchen had
almost gone out and she thought it was en-
tirely out so she poured kerosene on it from a
can, and the result showed there was fire
there yet, as it blazed up. the fire following
the stream until the top Of the can blew of
and the flames caught her dress, and also
caught onto bed that stood near the stove.
Mrs. Johnesy attempted to smother the fire
in the bed. but soon discovered that she was
on fire herself. She ran out to the pump
and hallooed; by this time the flames were
going for the bed. but just then Mr.. VIM.
Waddle came to the rescue, and the pump
being close by the flames were soon ex-
tinguished, having done but little damage
except to burn Mrs. Johnesy's dress and
hand little. The bedding was also some
what burned. 1t was very narrow escape,
and had it not been for timely aid, the re-
suit would certainly have been disastrous;
as i. is very slight damage has been done.
Don't fool with kerosene about fire.

TREES-HEALTH.

The question of dense foliage appears to
have struck the inhabitants OF this city a.
one of importance in q sanitary point of
view, and not few have commented on its
connection with health. There can be no
controversy of the fact that trees in the ag-
preeate are benefit to climate, sol, and the
enjoyment of the inhabitants of the vicinity
where they exist, but that they are in a Ger
tain sense an instrument of the PROPAGATION
of malaria there is no room TO doubt. 1t is
in low, swrmpy grounds that malaria holds its
abiding place, and when the sun is excluded
by its dense foliage from entering the air is
dense and impregnated with miasmatic
poison. 1t has been the history Of all
plaques that the germ of infection hides like
q serpent in the dark recesses of alleys and
the shady side Of streets while the open,
free, and sun-lit portions have been free
from infection. During the raging of the
yellow fever epidemic of New Orleans e1-
periments were made by placing raw beef in
the alleys at different elevations and il
was found that the foul air extended much
higher in the shade than in the sunlight, and
that gangrain took the beef at once in the
shade, while in the sun the evidence of de-
cay was of less dangerous type. Thi:
leads to the question of tree growth in thi:
city, which, without doubt, is an importan,
question in this climate, and shows con,
clusively that dense foliage is something
that must be guarded against. When the sur
can burn and cat up the poison there il
no damage, but where it .csn tester in thu
shade it is dangerous and disease-breedinl
germ that sooner or later will cause grav,
alarm to the people who create it
On the other hand, trees are necessity t.
certain extent, as they absorb TO some de
gree portions Of the miasmatic poison ant
in some places destitute of them health ha
been improved by their introduction
but whenever cultivated in dense grove
they at once show that they are dangerous
