last Saturday night. The car was lust turning

be assigned for the action of the conductor

SET DOWN ON.

To the iitor of the Eagle:
Will you be generous enough to allow
one of several whose feelings you have
wounded, TO find fault with you through
the columns of your own paper, partlcu-
larly as the injustice was done through the
same channel? | should like to ask, because
like Lydia Blood, 81 want to know" if in
the polite (s) refusal to accept the hospi-
talities Of the ladies of the Hypatia club,
there is not just suggestion, just hint of
ible with the refinement, and with that re-
gard for woman of which the editor of the
EAGLE is fond of boosting?
And again-Ali nicknalnss are essentially
vulgar; even plain, uncultured, everyday
journalists ough: TO know that, or if any
one Of the many names by which We are
called is given in good faith, is i. not rather
presumptious, TO say the least, in the editor
of the EAGLE to take on himself unsolicited,
the honor of naming an organization, the
aim and object Of which he knows nothing?
The Hypatia club Is purely an intellectual
and social body. 1t may be independent"
but is not political or threatening" There
has never been political discussion since
lis organization, but if there were, is politics
such corrupt thing then, that we can not
even mention it? The mere fact of club
discussing any question. whether il be the
Chinese, the Mormon or the Servant Girl
question, does not Justify us in taking any
one of those names, any more than we should
be called the Eagle club because we might
sometimes discuss the ''ycarning" editor of
the EAGLE. ONE OF THE CLUB.

HON. CLAUDE PlNrARp.

BY reference 10 q notice elsewhere il will
be seen that the law firm of Pinisrd Il Msr-
tin has been dissolved by mutual consent,
and that W. c. Martin, ESQ.,. will close up
the unfinished business of the firm. The
cause of the dissolution of the firm is, We
understand, the intended removal of Hon.
Claude Pintard, with his family, to Wichita,
Kansas. which city he will in future make
his home. Since be has been q resident Of
Natchez. Mr.. Pintsrd has made hosts of
warm friends who will regret exceedingly to
hear of his intended removal. Daring his
few ycsrs of citizenship amongst US he has
wen place scarcely second TO
that of any other lawyer at the bar. and has
bull; up FOR himself large and lucrative law
practice. His family, too, have occupied an
important place in the social circles of
Nstchez, and their removal will create a void
tia. will not soon be filed. Wichi;s is one
of the growing cities of the grea: northwest,
and Mr.. PiRtard thinks that he viii have
scope there for winning wealth and rcaown
that be does not enjoy here. snd there he
viii cas-: his lines. May his lines prove TO
have been cast in q pleasant place, and may
he realize sli his most sanguine expectations
in the city he has chosen for his new home.

Mr.. Pintard is the father Of Mrs. Mark J.
Oliver. of this city, who with her husband.
lasely visitei Natchez and whom We guess
brought their persuasive powers to bear.

THE ADDITION CRAZE.

The EAGLE is getting ready for smother
raid on the addition business, in which it
will attempt to show that not only some
body must inevitably get left, but that the
reaction will be against the city itself, in
GLIDING its every interest. Whatever criti-
cisms may have been offered touching the
EAGLES position this spring on that ques-
ton we have not changed our mind for a
moment. The EAGLE was right then, is
right now. There is something to this life
besides wild speculation in outside lots; at
least such speculation will never builda city.
and if it is not shut off all the wise acts and
splendid foundations laid here for city will
come to naught and ruin. There is reason
and limits to all things, but-here We stop
for the present

THE CATHOLIC PROGRAMME.

Our Catholic fellow citizens are actively
engaged in pushing matters pertaining to tn e
new church and the location and erection Of
their Sisters Seminary and other buildings
connected with the seat of the new Catholic
bishophric.
The church committee held q meeting last
Sunday and discussed the various PROPOSE
tons received up to that time for the loca-
ton of the Sisters Seminary and it was de-
cided that another meeting shall be held
next Saturday, when all the propositions
will receive due consideration and the best
one be accepted, after which there will be no
delay In preparing for building.
All the buildings proposed in the event of
the location of the Episcopal See in this
city will cost when completed, il the Neigh
borhood of 100000
The Southwestern Kansas Catholic emf
grafton socity held meeting on Sunday
evening, when the constitution and by-lsws
of the society were read and approved and
a programme Of action mapped out.
1t is the intention OF the society to collect
Official statistics of the progress If all the
cities, towns and counties included in the
southwestern diocese, together with lists Of
lands for sale by the several real estate
agents in each city and town. with discrip-
ton and price of same.
The society will publish Il six-column
folio paper quarterly, giving description
of the towns and the country, together with
the statistics collected, list Of lands for sale
and such other information as will truly rep
resent the advantages of the country. This
periodical shall have regular circulation of
10000 copies among Cath ole families in the
several states of the union. These subscrib-
ers shall be obtained by advertising in the
leading English and German Catholic pa
psrs in the United States. The secretary will
keep record of all real estate furnished by
agents and property owners, together with
the description, where located and the prics.
The class of emigranis who will be sought
are chiefly families and peIs rs with means
to purchase farms and city property. and in
view OF the fact that the zeal estate agents
and owners of property viii be the ones
most benefited by the association, commit
tee has been appointed to solicit means from
them to defray the expenses of advertising.
The paper which the society will publish
will be regular periodical, and will be
called the Southwestern Kansas Indicator,
and will be issued from the office of the So

THE Y. M. c. A. LOCATED.

Ever since the organization Of the Young
Mems Christian ssociation in this city, it
has been evident, more from the character
of the men who took hold of the matter
than from anything else, that it would come
to the front a. q society. From the very
first they set about securing location for q
permanent building. At one time it seemed
that they would certainly secure very val.
liable site on Main street. But they have
secured one Of almost equal value and fully
as central though not on business thor
oughtare. Rev. j. d. Hewitt informed US
yesterday that the executive board of that
organization had purchased of Mr.. Finlay
Ross the seventy-fve by ono hundred feet,
fronting Oh First street and Topeka aven-
ues, Immediately opposite and west of the
Levy residence. The selection is a most ex-
cellent and very valuable one and we not
only congratulate that body, which is des-
tined to be such a power for good in this
city, but soon expect to see splendid per-
msnent building lifting its roofs and towers
from that corner

SANTA FEE DIRECTORS.

Colonel Cyrus X. Holiday, of Topeka, and
Colonel Severy, of Emporia, both directors
iii the Santa Fe system, arrived in the city
last evening. Colonel Holiday, who was
one of the original founders of Topeka, YVES
also one of the original fathers of the Santa
Fe system. Years before rail was laid and
when the proposed enterprise was known as
the st. Joseph, Topeka and Santa Fe, way
back in the spring of 1857, We heard Will
lard p. Hall, of 81. Joe, and Colonel Holt
day make speeches at Topeka for the pro-
posed read. Years sfterward when the
Colonel had persuaded some Cincinnati and
Boston men to listen to him, proposition
was submitted in Usage county, the fret We
believe in the state. We presided at the
meeting while the Colonel laid before the
audience the probability OF building the
road from Topeka to Bur!ingame and posi-
bly, on as far as Emporia. We don't know
that he was ever in Wichita, the metropolis
of Kansas, before, but rs We noticed him
sailing down Douglas avenue last evening
We wondered what his thoughts were
Maybe he will call around today and tell

BOOM! BOO BOOM

Never in the history Of this booming city
was there such a boom on as there was yea
terday and real estate men are fairly wild.
The total amount of meneJ invested did not
reach Saturdays figures but greater num-
of deeds were fled. Neiderlander's force
sold upwards of 200 lots, Brown & Cole sold
81 lots in Carey's addition and all the real
estate men had field day.
An EAGLE reporter stepped into the
county clenk's Office and was Immediately
asked "where are your deeds," The scribe
said he had no deeds. Then said the assis-
tan. clerk, "you are the first man who came
to this office today who had not from one
to six deeds to file, and Immediately after
breakfast two new additions were filed; one
of 600 lots and another of 1s, and we have
been So busy we couldn't get of TO dinner.
The people are wild"
There never was such rush. Every Sat-
urday the past two years the city has been
crowded with people but now every day is
equal to Saturday. The city is full of pee
pie and the sidewalks are too narrow 10 hold
them.
What will it be the next too years, No
one can tell.

DISTRICT COURT.
Progress Of the Edwasds-WiIson Murder
Trial.

The destrict court re-convened yesterday
morning at 9 o'clock. Judge Wall presid-
ing. The day was occupied in examining
witnesses for the state. There is no very
great interest manifested in the case here,
owing no doubt to TIC fact that the murder
was not committed in this county, and per-
haps in some degree to the fact that the
murdered mans reputation was none of the
best.
The first witness called BY the state yes
terday wss DR.. w. o. Barnett, of Yelling
ton, who was called in to see Wilson after
he was shot. His testimony was as to the
location, appearance and nature of the
wounds and as to their fatal nature. He de-
ec.ibed three wounds found on Wilson's
body all on the left side; one about the
collar bone, enc just below the
nipple and the other abou: the
entrails. One in the natural order
of things would prove fatal in very few
minutes, another would probably be at
tended with fatal results, and the third Was
serious.
DR.. j. r. Shepherd, who lives in Garden
City, was TIE next witness, who said he was
graduate of the University of Tennessee, q
regular medical college. He knew the de-
PENDANT, Edwards, and was called in the
night of the shooting to see Wilson, whom
he found in a dying condition. His testi-
mony was necessarily as to the nature, loca-
ton and consequences of the wounds, in
which he agreed in the main with the pre-
vious witness. He was not cross-examined.
The next two witnesses were gamblers,
who were playing their games in the room
where the tragedy occurred. The substance
of their testimony is that Edwards came in
to the room, or gambling rooms, where
Wilson was at the time, and that the two
had had some words, not of q very
friendly nature. After this Edwards left
the room and Wilson remained. Not
long afterward Edwards returned and going
near to where Wilson was, said he WAS the
best man in the house, called Wilson ugly
names and kicked him twice about the
groin. Wilson stood pointing towards
Edwards coat pocket in manner indicating
that he thought he had pistol there. In
q minute or SO Edwards drew bis pistol and
shot Wilson, who fell forward, after which
Edwards fred two more shots at him while
in reclining position. After this Wilson
rose to his feet and staggered towards the
outside door, when another sho: was fired.
One Of the witnesses could not swear that
Edwards fired that shot, but the other did.
w. o. Lipscome, who gave his occupation
as painter and bis present home as Har-
per, also testified much to the same effect as
the other witnesses.
The testimony for the state will be all in
this loren DON.

rHs LARGEST SALE EVER MADE

George l. Blsckwelder this morning pur-
chased through Mr.. J. E Johntson, the real
estate agent the tract Of lAnd laying east Of
Hydraulic avenue for $i0,0o.-Beacon-
As the eastern boundary of this tract d
not given it is fair to assume that il extends
to the Atlantic ocean and probably from
Lake Superior TO the Gulf. Thu. therefore,
would be bigger aale than the Louisiana
territory, OF Alaska, but the price looks
rather small. Well. land 90 far east from
Main street Amt worth much anyhow; but
when the eastern limits Of the city reach tbs
Mississippi it will probably loom up -
god location for suburban rea;dsneA and

THE BIGGEST OF ALL.

LAST Saturday and yesterday were the
banner days in real estate circles. This is
saying good deal, but it is true, neverthe-
less. Prior to Saturday the largest showing
for any one day was near Sl24,0O0 and the
instruments filed lis. Last Saturday 100
instruments we're filed and S204, 0S3, that
stood at the bottom of the real estate col
umn, made the believers in Wichita more
strong in the faith.
Yesterday the number of instruments filed
reached 1873. This Is the most
that ever walked in the register of
deeds Office in singl, day and
kept step with the music. The total
amount of money exchanged it will be seen
is not so great but tie number of deeds cor
siderably over that of any previous day.
The excitement las: evening on the streets
over yesterday rush in the 25xl40 kind WAS
without an eQusl. The report was aHoat
and was believed by every enc it reached
that today's total would stand out over
100000. A reporter chased the thing to
its origin and j. run into fellows office who
was trying TO turn trick of several thous-
and dollars by electric light.
One thing seems TO be noticeable in yes
terday's deal in real estate. The business
was more distributed. There was not real
estate firm in the city that closed business
last evening without having scratched some
lots off their book during the day. Scarcely
a man who held good hand in resl estate
but what played q winning card in some Of
the deals

SERIOUS RUNAWAY

While Mr.. J. E. Johnston, the real estate
agent, together with young Mr.. Beatie and
Mr.. Davis, were driving on Water street
yesterday afternoon the team took fright at
an engine and ran away. After short dis
lance they ran sstride Off tree, smashing
the rig to pieces and hurting all the occu-
pants. The team then broke loose and few
over to Main street. where they were caught.
Mr.. Johnston had one leg seriously hurt
and Mr.. Beatie received a wound in the
hand and mad his arm hurt. None of the
wounds are dangerous, except that of the
buggy. which is almost fatal,
