commented on as the ''nigger," and during

every ludicrous point brought about by the

per and character of nine-tenths of the look

fine comedy played simultaneously with the
piece set before us.
In reality many of these rough fellows
were critics, in their way. of no mean order,
though themselves entirely unaware Of it. l
think that their years of isolation from the
conventional life of the older settled locali-
ties from which they originally came, and
the lack of sham and pretence in the life they
now led, had quickened their minds to dis
criminate between what was natural and
what was artificial-what was acted with
real emotion and what was merely stilted
defamation, as much Of the piece before us
was on the part of the principal character.

THE UMPIRE OF THE NINE.

An umpire of the league mines,
Lay dying ut the plate,
And the CORY rocks about him
Told the story Of his fate.
He had made n rank decision,
And the crowd, in frenzy deep,
Had shuffied off his mortal coil
By rocking him to sleep.
The catcher stood beside him
As his life blood ebbed away,
And swung his bat with vigor
To keep the crowd at bay.
The dying umpire beckoned,
And the captain of the nine
Bent over him in SORROW,
For he feared another fine.
But the umplre's words came feebIy
AS the crisis was at hand,
His dimmed eyes were soon to open
In brighter, fairer land.
Then he whispered, low and sadly,
''Call the game, it's getting dark;
Let it end on even innings,
SO the last run do not mark.
II have finished watching bases;
lam numbered with the slain,
And the cry Of rats will never
Echo in my ears again.
''Place my hand upon the honis plate:
Let me have my little mask;
Frame a set Of resolutions;
This Is all have to ask"
The dying umpire faltered, 4.
His face turned toward the sun, Ss
One gasp, and all was over;
1t was his last home run.
They buried him at twilight
In hole they quickly made,
And no stone marks the lonely spot
Where the weary umpire's laid.

COARSENESS.

Postmaster Murdoch of Wichita,
feels very safe in his position, so safe
in fact, that he humorOusly aud some
what coarseiy observes that "ihe last
intimation That we had was that Pres
ident Cleveland was going to marry,
and we supposed naturally, for the
purpose of raising . boy of his own,
of clean, democratic strain and free
from any nugwumpian prOclivities,
Tor the Wichita posimastership."
When we reflect. however, that MUIR
dock has tried to resign, to get out,
to be kicked out, his humOr is pardon
able.-kausas City Times.
As fittingly might quaryman have
essayed the role of critic and offered
to instruc: Prsxitiles as wherein his
matchless Phryne lacked in perfection
% for Missourian to offer to instruct
a Kansan as in what consists refine
ment. If we employed a coarse ex-
preston in dealing with the delicate
AMI refined occupant of the white
house we were and are still oblivious
of the fact. We didn't even suggest
that in the event of the marriage, Mr..
Cleveland would be brother -in-law
to his oldest boy.

The press throughout the state has
given about two rounds each to the
Murdocks in regard to their seeking
Office. Almost every country paper
we received last week had the same
notice to head its editorial column,
thinking perhaps it was smart as
original stuff. We had begun to think
that the thing had about run out, but
this week we opened an exchange and
to our disgust saw at fhe head of the
editorial columns the same old piece.
We wonder if the MurdOcks don't get
awful sick.-Chronoscope.
This particular limb of the branch
didn't think the item bore the ear
marks of unusual genius but as the
thing kept going concluded finally the
fault lay with ourself. We are less
lonesome now that we fluid another
editor just as dull and unappreciative.
As for getting sick we are beyond
such possibility.

fought rs, 10 that these roads win come
anyhow. Such an assertion is an In
suit not only to intelligent men but to
the men who have been working for
months, some of them for two years,
to bring about just these propositions.
Before we could get even chance to
offer aid in the construction of these
lines. the amount OF the products of
all the COMMITTEES in southwest Kansas,
together with the approximate ton
nage-the number of bushels raised,
the number of cattle and hogs, etc.,
and the debt and taxable valuation of
counties by townships had all to be
satisfactorily shown up. and not only
that, but the arrangements back of
these lines had further to be con-
WINGED that Wichita was the leading
point and the coming city, and that
she actually controlled very large
territory before they would even con-
sent to make the attempt to reach US
with their lines.
Now thai the preliminary work has
all been SO satisfactorily accomplished,
now that the roads stand ready to do
as agreed, and now when no one can
be found TO, deny the proposition that
with the building of these lines
Wichita becomes the greatest city
west of St. Louis it would seem as if
it ought to be impossible to find q
sane man within the bounds of Sedg-
wick county, owning farm CT even q
town lot, who could be induced to vote
against proposition SO far reaching
and certain of satisfactory results as
the one which will be submitted on
the 9Th of next month. No city in the
state, no city in the west ever had
such q number of important PROPOSE
lions sumbitted at one time and no
city has eveI grown and prospered as
will this city aid county in the event
of an affirmative vote.
In conclusion we will add that the
EAGLE has never misled the tax-pay-
ers of this city or county in the past
touching any matter involving their
material prosperity, but upon the
other hand, its predictions, prophecies
and promises have always been more
than fulfilled and realized, and that if
there was any chance or opportunity
for either of the corporations named
TO get any advantage of our people
or were the peoples interest not pro-
tected in the fullest extent we should
not have been q party in securing
what, in our judgment is the grandest
opportunity for wealth and advance
ment ever offered single community.

His progree at the trade was rather
slow at fret, but he never was told
anything in the line OF bis new busi-
ness that he forgot. 1t was soon as
certained that he preferred reading
the exchanges to washing dirty roll
ers and setting type, and remained in
the Office after other boys were wax
ing the echos on the streets. Nor did
he mix with the society Of the viii
lage, but spent his leisure time with
the inseparable newspapers and the
ragged old library which had been
chucked away in dark corner of the
printing Office.
In those days printing paper was
severely devoted to the printing Of
newspapers; to write upon the fair
page was the next thing to sacrilege.
1t transpired that Sol was fond of
writing. Not scrap of white paper
that had been dropped on the prem
ises escaped his clutch; small piece of
pencil, an inch or two long, was q
pearl above price. Scraps of paper,
covered all over with hierOglyphics,
accumulated under the manipulations
of that dumpy pencil until several
boxes were filled with them. Funny
sketches, humorous rhymes, and all
manner of deviltry in prose and verse
were jotted on these fragments Of let
ters, scraps of envelopes, margins Of
old newspapers, bits Of paper
from the waste basket, and
every other this capable of re-
ceiving the inspiration of that everlast-
ing blunt pencil. These literary odds
and ends were SO marked with CIPHER
that the writer could easily put them
together, like the eccentric patches of
q crazy quilt are combined, SO that in
this fragmentary collection we're
poems, ESSAYS, sketches, reviews, criti-
cisms, sarcasm, wit, humOr, etc, on
string as it were. Samples of these
illusions got into the Gazette aud its
successor, the Western Emporium, and
thence into the literary papers of the
day. exciting curious attention and
favorable comment. When later along
Mr.. Miller succeeded to the editorial
control of the paper, his fame as q
writer was assured. Since he entered
upon his career in Kansas as an editor
and q statesman, his reputation has
been too well known to need review
in this brief mention Of his early
struggle for distinction in the world
OF letters.

BONDS! BONDS!

Mr.. II. Jonithan, of Ninescah township,
was in the city yesterday. He ventilated
himself TO some of our people concerning
the bond question. He expresses himself as
being agsins. th3 bonds some time ago, but
after the Santa Fe company showed SO
plainly their modus operandi he ia avowediy
in favor of the bonds, and with him several
others in his locality have determined to do
likewise. He SAYS that some of the runners
for that company visited him four times on
the question and their actions and srgu-
ments, So called by some, were enough to
convince any one that they do not mean to
work for the interest Of thu people, but do
as they always have, propagate their own
selfish aims. his township. he claims, is on
to the racket and is growing in votes for the
bonds.
An EAGLE reporter was talking with
prominent farmer from the south western
part of the county yesterday. "There has
been a decided change" said he 'on the
bond question in the last few days. At frat
believe in our section almost every man
was talking against the bonds. We did no:
like the idea of giving so much to railroads.
We have always known however thst the
Santa Fe has for some time done everything
in its power against US and has done . great
deal to keep back this county. After that
company come out few days since and
lavisbly put both money and circulars with
men and even bribed men with money, as
some of US are led to believe, to canvass the
county for the purpose Of defeating the
bonds SO as to enable then to moro firmly
hold the county under its firm control, many
of Us have decided to vote for the bonds.
l am satisfied that if the Santa Fe had
KEEP: it, mouth shut and purse strings tied
the bonds would have been defeated, but
coming out as they have believe they will
carry. Their work reacts. In attempting
to gain one vote they loose every time. If
they had lectioneered for the bonds they
weuld have effected more against them"
A reporter was introduced to another
gentleman who is the leading farmer Of his
township and in answer to question said
he thought the effort of the Santa Fe to de-
feat the bonds was doing big work for them.
1.-THE people know naturally and also by
experience that" said be ''ths: one railroad
is good thing but two opposing corpora
tons are immensely better"
As an evidence that he meant what hs
said he offered to bet big money that the
bonds would carry by fifteen hundred ma
jority.
