POISONED WITH cARBoLIc ACID.

Sunday, the constable from Clearwater
came into the city for Coroner Garrison to
hold an inquest on the body of old man
Alexander c. Pease, whose place is about
three miles north of Clearwater. He left
for Clearwater Sunday evening by the Fort
Scott train accompanied by the coroner.who
has not returned at this writing. Informa-
ton as TO the old mans death is meagre and
unsatisfactory. One thing however appears
to be certain, viz: he took drink of car
bolic acid, or whisky and carbolic acid. The
story was told an EAGLE reporter two ways;
one way being that the old man had been
sick and that his wife got up at 4 in the
morning TO give him some whisky. That
there were two bottles on the table, one OF
which contained whisky and the other car
bolic acid, and that she took the wrong bot
tie. and that Mt O'Clock, an hour after Ia
king the draught, he was dead. The other
version of the affair is that there was but
one bottle and that it contained a mixture OF
whisky and carbolic acid. No matter which
way it was the old man is dead and whisky
was at the bottom of the trouble anyway,
Old man Pease is well known in this city
and it is well known that he and his wife
didn't get along very well together lately.
LATER-Since writing the foregoing c. 5.
Caldwell returned from the scene of the
tragedy and reports that Mrs. Pease got out
of bed to get the old gentleman some whisky
and went TO the shelf where bottle of car
bolic acid and bottle whisky were kept and
having no light she got the wrong bottle and
poured out draught, gave it to her hus.

it was queer whisky. He died in half al

RIVERSIDE PARK.

An old resident of Wichita met an EAGLE
reporter on Main street yesterday and said:
"Why don't some of you reporters go out to
the Riverside Park some night. There is
where you could get an item Curiosity led
me to 60 one night when there was a dance
there and such doings l never saw. have
lived in Wichita fifteen years; was here when
Rowdy Joe and Reds dance houses were
running and when the town was full of cow
boys, gamblers and rough characters. but
their actions were respectable compared with
what saw in that park. Drunken women
dsporting themselves in the most disgusting
manner, gambling and every imaginable ex-
hibi:ion of vice and immortality. 1t is dis
grace to civilized community and you
newspaper men ought 10 show it up" Inc
reporter said it was beyond his jurisdiction
and out of the city limits.

APPALLING DISASTER NJ uDALL

Rev Mr.. Hewitt impaired to an EAGLE
reporter the sad tidings ofan appalling dis
aster that occurred near Udall Sunday night
in which eleven persons and two teams were
swept under the current in the Walnut
river. The reverend gentleman was ON the
train that stopped there few moments and
the sccount was hurriedly impaired to him
as the train pulled out yesterday evening.
Five hundred people were on the bank at
that time and efforts were being made to re-
cover the bodies, six already had been re-
covered. Out of the three teams that had
attempted to cross the stream two with their
occupants were swept away and one escaped.

servant girl, employed at Mrs. Baldwin's, on
South Lawrence avenue, was thrown from
a buggy and had her knee dislocated. She

Douglas. The horse was annoyed by flies
and was restless $. He ran so close to a pile
of lumber in the alley tina. the wheel struck
the pile and the hub broke just where the
spcles entered it, throwing her out. The
horse ran round TO Mr.. Bsldwin's residence
The buggy is badly demolished and the CIR

DEATH OF GEO. c. cowARr.

The intelligence reached here yesterday
morning that George G. Cowart dropped
dead on the street in Garden City, Finney
county, last Sunday. No one who knew
him intimately here was surprised at the
news. In fact, those most intimately &C
quainted with him expected some such a
termination of his unhappy life ere now.
Life, for some time, he felt to be burden to
him.
Geo. Cowart came to this city from Texas
about a year ago and settled down TO practice
his profession, but notwithstanding his fine
native ability, literary attachments and legal
lore, his practice never assumed living pro-
portions and he subsisted partly on the
bounty Of friends and that Of brother who
lives in Texas. He was native of Georgia
and was Of good family. He practiced law
in Missouri. Texas and other states, and was
prominent at one time in the Kansas
City bar; but in financial way he
never was a success Whisky was his
enemy; human enemies he had none. He
had a big heart and was free from guile.
For months past, life was burden to him.
He was not quite misanthrope, nor an n.y.
pocondriac, but might be called combina-
ton of both. He lacked that hope of eter-
nal life which buoys the christian under ad-
versity and his life was blank to him. He
sometimes lay down upon lounge IN his
own or in some neighboring law Office and
was heard to say, be wished he never would
get up. Standing BY his bier and casting a
retrospective glance at his career, one can
not but be filed with melancholy. Whisky.
Whisky, Had 1t not been for whisky
George c. Cowart, with his fine ability, his
genial manner and his great big heart
might have stood high at the bar and in
society in this city. His life and his death,

tonight at the G. A. T. headquarters.
Enough men have already signifed their in
tention of joining to fl. out the quota, and
as the boys have all had their fun, there will
now be no foolishness. Last night large
number of young men enrolled their names,

remain without representation in the splen-

The charge made upon the "West End"
wind mill by those itinerant advertising
knight errants, Don Quixote O'Brient and
Sancho Panzo Kennworthy, has been
brought to my attention by means Of your
far-reaching auxiliary. We will remark
briefly that the @West End" wind mill is our
own property, is real and not dummy, it is
a flowing fountain and is free to the public.
1t was boarded up and painted to make 1t
more slightly and the contract for its en-
closure was made before the travelling wind
mill hawkers came here. The claimants
above named could, with the same propriety,
interdict the sale of advertising space on
my barn fronting the city from the river.
We have read advertisements around mills in
years way back. and anywhere between the
east sea and west sea. So, it seems, has
Peacock. for it suggests a patent to his
brain, just as naturally, you know. Soberly,
had Peacock invented some useful mechan-
ism utilizing the free alr:.of heaven as an eco
nomical propelling power, adding something
| original and unique in advertising, ne could
properly claim something for something, in
stead of nothing for nothing-merely the
automata workings, the t;nkling symbols
and the sounding brass of :he agents. Hence
We remark, having simply straight out
| windmill of our own, being citizen, a bust
ness man and property holder, that We
have some rights Peacock did not get in his
vagrant patent windmill advertising scheme.
and we here take occasion TO notify Pea
cock, O'Brient & Kennworthy that We have
good legal advise for maintaining the same
notifying them that we are gong to sell the
space alluded to for advertising. while invit-
ing them severally or in bulk to proceed "to
do us up" The pleasant assurance is back
from us that We will stay by them in the tilt
on the windmill question until the last lance
is broken. T. NJ. GARDNER.

7. A. PULASKI ASSIGNS


Soon after our reporter came down town
yesterday morning, he learned that j. A.
Pulaski, wholesale dealer in fruits, fancy
groceries and cigars, Main street, had made
an assignment to II. G. Toler in favor Of his
creditors, and that he had left town. On in
vestgation the report was found to be cor
rect. The reporter visited the establishment
and found Mr.. Toler in possession busily
taking an inventory. after which he will
prepare a statement Of resources and liabili
ties. The assignment sets forth that the as
sgnor being indebted TO sundry persons in
sundry amounts, which he was unable to
paw in the regular order OF business, there
fore he makes the assignment without pref
erence or priority
The failure was complete surprise, be-
cause the concern has been doing bushes:
only about two months. First the firm was
Pulaski Il Wood. Mr.. Pulaski did bust.
ness Mt Caldwell until about three weeks age
and Mr.. Wood ran the house here. About
week ago a rupture took place in the con-
Germ, and Wood withdrew from the firm
and now comes the assignment. An officer
was in search of Pulaski but he could moi
be found. The cause of the collapse is moi
known to any one here, that We know Of, ex-
cept Pulaski, and probably Wood. Doing
legitimate business, it is not quite clear
how the failure could come about so soon
Several hints as to the cause were heard, bu,
as the whole matter will probably be thor
oughly investigated, we withhold comment
