COUNCIL MEETING.

The city council met last night in the
council chamber with all members present,
excepting Mr.. Brown, and Bis Honor, the
mayor, presided.
Upon the recommendation Of the water
works committee it was decided to lay water
mains on Pine street from Waco 10 Law
renee avenue.
The FIRE committee reported to reject the
proposition for the erection of iron clad
buildings on Douglas avenue cast of the
fremont house. The report was adopted.
/. Was also decided to repair the Fifth ward
hose house.
On motion of Mr.. Allen the street COM
missioner was instructed not to notify fire.
men to work cut road taxes.
It was determined to divide both the cot
ton and rubber hose equally between the
two hose companies.
The matter concerning the location o!
Sherman avenue was referred to the city
engineer, and he wss ordered TO report at
the next meeting.
The city engineer reported that the west
side of Fifth avenue, between First street
and Central avenue was too far east.
Some of the hedges and fences intruded on
the proper location of the street as much as
ten feet. The Wichita elevator stood two
feet over the line.
Mr.. Fecheimer was allowed 500 addi-
tional for damage done him in opening Wa
ter street to the Wichita & Western railroad.
The money was ordered paid after quit
claim deed was given for the land to be
used.
The council adjourned to meet next Mon
day night

THE K. p. MINSTRELS

The entertainment given by the home am
a.eur minstrel troupe last night in the opers
house was in many respects the most anus
ing performance given in this city for many
day, and was the most heartily spplauded
There was very fine house.
The opening overture by the company
and orchestra WAS excellent, as was also the
opening chorus, which put the house in
good humor at the start, aud the interest
was well sustained throughout.
The comic dit;y, "Ring dat bsll," by Hi
Alden ELECTED great applause ard was
encored, in fact everything was encored.
'Creep Into Bed, Ny Baby" by Il. B.
Hull, and "Sussn Browns Wedding" by
Will Cillins, were greatly appreciated; and
so was "Hustle on to Glory" by Wash
burne, and "Her Name was Liza" by Mr..
Hayes.
"a Hundred Fathoms Deep" bass solo,
by a. NJ. Clark, was meri.orious effort.
In the second part the quar,ette, Collins,
Alden. Hull and Hoifmaster, did some very
fine singing and were called back three
times.
ii. l.. Pierce's spcciaities were amusing,
and were heartily applauded and the banjo
business aad comic songs and dances of
HAYS, Craig, Waite and Dundon were
source Of great amusement, but the funniest
OF Ill was Frank MCune's impersonation Of
Sol Smith Russell and George S. Knight.
Hays and Cra!g's ;umbling and acrobatic
exhibition compares fsvorabiy with like
circus performances.
Taken in its en.irity, the entertainment
compared favorably with any entertainment
given 10 this city, of that nature, and was
enjoyed fully SIS much s. any.
a petition, signed By large number Of
the audience, was sen; 10 VIII Collins
to sing "Mary's Ban Away With
a coon" after the show, hu; on seeount Of
no suitable music being obtsinsble for an
accompaniment, be IVES obliged to decline.
Our amateurs are doing spiendidiy and
vii! come to the front if they stick to it.
The entertainment viii be reproduced To-
night and 40 one should fail to see II, sor !;
certainly is worth n.say times the price Of
admission.

NOT oENERALLY uNpERsroop.

Do the people of the older cities of this
state, or do the editors in such cities, even,
really comprehend the fact or understand
that sixteen passenger trains arrive in Wich-
ita daily and that as many depart daily,
making thirty-two passenger trains in and
out of an interior city every day. We
doubt such knowledge, yet it is true Two
through trains arrive in Wichita every morn
ing from St. Louis, direct, and two every
evening, over the Frisco and Missouri
Pacific, four metropolitan trains, all hauling
sleepers and two of them reclining chair
cars and two OF them dining cars. This is
not counting the Santa Fe, which runs in
two trains each day from Kansas City, max
ing six through eastern trains arriving in
this city daily. Wichita now has morning
and evening train from the west over the
Frisco, morning and evening train over
the Fl. Scott from the south, morning and
evening train over the Wichita and South
western from the south, morning and even
ing train from the west over the Wichita
and Western, and q morning and evening
train over the Eagle Line, making, as We
said, sixteen daily trains in and sixteen dailp
trains out, or thirty-two trains daily, not
the freight.
Wichita is the railway center of Kansas

FOURTH AVENUE BOOM.

Almost daily one discovers evidence that
the business area of Wichita is not yet es-
tablished. Of course everybody knows that
Douglas avenue and Main street, beth on
account of their width and the business al
ready established upon them, will remain
principal streets, but there is no certainty
that they will remain for all time the chief
business streets of the city. Circumstances
may arise that are not now dreamed Of
which will change things wonderfully. There
seems TO be a great desl of uncertainty in
locating the other chief business streets.
One day it is one street and the next an
other. Now j: is Fourth avenue, and prop
perty on that street is in demand. Hacker
& Jackson bayo thor plans ont 70, their
fine block on the southeast corner
of Douglas and Fourth, Capt Carey will
soon begin on his splendid hotel building on
the southwest corner and Major Hartwick is
at work on his ON the northwest corner.
These will also be very fine buildings, and
the hotel viii eclipse anything in the state.
If there was a building to match on the ether
corner instead of Charley Hunters old store,
then these corners would vie with anything
in the city. Again there is report tina.
there is trade on between John Kennedy
and some parties who want to bug out his
hotel and the three lots there owned by Ken
nedy, on which they propose to build al
opera house. They say they are willing to
pay Kennedy his price and will build the
opera house, provided Capt. Carey
builds the hotel this yesr, and
that seems TO be pretty certain
because Mr.. Carey is advising all his friends
to take all the bets they can get on that
turn. A well authenticated report comes
also that the street car company vii, soon
begin 10 build on that street, from lis juno
ton with Oak street clear down to q juno
ton with their lire en- Lincoln street III the
south part of town, thus forming a belt line
around the business center of the city.
This street, on account % its extra width, is
peculiarly favorable for The street cars ard
tie Catholic church and Episcopal resi-
dence being located thereon will add mate
rally TO the business of the line. There
seems to be some foundation for rumor
that has gained ground lately, too, TO the
effect that the Rock Island road will build
their depot at the south end of this street,
therefore Fourth avenue and especially that
portion of it south Of Douglas avenue, is on
a high old boom.

THE GARFIELD UNIVERSITY.

Our little article of Sunday morning,
about the grounds acquired by tho Garfield
university, no doubt WAS misleading, in THU,
that there is no pretencs that the institution
is located. The truth is, the grounds We
spoke Of were simply profered under the
rule of An option to be held until the direc-
tors of the corporation could get all the
other propositions into shape. And there
are number Of them. A further truth is
that there is no capital stock in the hands of
any one and the directors are but trustees
who are not pecuniarily interested to the
amount of cent. Their whole aim and OBJ
ject lie to found university at Wichita, the
founding of which, somewhere in this state,
is foregone conclusion. As to the grounds
which will be chosen the trustees themselves
have no idea and cannot have until all the
propositions have been formally submitted
and Systematically considered. They are
only convinced of one fact, and that is that
there is to be great institution founded and
that if Wichita makes the proper effort it
will come TO the point, one of the prerequi-
sites being q suitable site. OF course the
trustees know a great deal more than they
can at present make public, but they say
that the university has not
been located.
