WHAT WICHITA WANTS.

General Edward F. Winslow, of New
York, the president of the st. Louis and
San Francisco railway, who, in company
with General Manager Dunn, spent an hour
or two in our city on Tuesday last, remarked
to us that, hereafter, our capitalists and
builders should give more attention TO the
architectural style of the business houses
erected; that the attrsctiveness of a COM
mercial city had no inconsiderable influence
upon, not only strangers, but upon men
who came to transact business; and, that
the next hotel erected in Wichita should
not cost less than one hundred thousand
dollars and be built with particular refer
ence to architectural design and the best
approved modern conveniences. In this
connection, General Winslow said tina, their
corporation, being interested in the growth
and future Of such a city on their line as
Wichita is proving 10 be, he had no doubt
their road could make entirely satisfactory
rates for the fine and beautiful stone found
on their Eureka Springs branch in south
Missouri and north Arkansas. However
that may be, We fully agree with him that
the business blocks, public buildings and
hotels hereafter TO be erectid in this city
should surpass in design and attrsctiyeness
the great majority of the structures which
at present line our business thoroughfares,
and that such excess Of expenditure would
prove profitable 10 the owners either for
rem. or for their own business. As within q
very short time there will be grea. sc,ivi;y
in the line of building, we suggest to the
projectors of such buildings thst they bear
this matter in mind while having their plans
drawn up.

fuel-saving invention he had in his office in
the Zeininger building. There the scribe
found stove nearly red-hot. and witnessed
apples being baked in the oven in six min
utes and potatoes ard biscuits in nine min
utes, the fuel being supplied by can OF
crude oil and Ike car full of single water.
A small pipe leads from each can TO the
stove, which convey the fluids into the fire.
place of the stove, where it forms some sor,
of gas that ignites readily by applying q
lighted match. The writer is not sufficiently
conversant with gases 10 give chemical
idea Of this combustible combination, nor
did he find anyone who can. II does the
business, ali the same, and By this process a
room can be kept steadily warmed and all
the cooking for family done for whole
week for % cents. The inven-
ton can be used on any sort
of common stove. Just near the stove is a
little automotic guage or conductor through
which the oil passes and on the other pipe
is valve moved with screw by which the
supply Of fuel can be turned off so that the
FIRE viii die out gradually. BY means OF
this guage or steam cock, the heat can be
regulated so as 20 suit any scrt of baking,
and TO change the temperature in room or
house. The fuel consists Of nothing but the
water and the crude oil. 1t is called the
water gsss stove fuel, and is by far the most
convenient and fuel saving stove the writer
ever saw. The inventor is Massachusetts,
man, and is said to be crank. At the time
spoken of, Colonel Woodcock didn't want
the thing given TO the public, as he wanted
to test it thoroughly. He went TO Chicago
a week ago TO satisfy himself further, and
now he is back and ready to give it away.
1t is wonderful invention.

Nearly 200 different kinds of dogsl
Think Of it. And yet this Is not diff
ficult to believe; for, we have water
dogs, and watch dogs. and sheep
dogs, and fighting dogs, and pet dogs,
and sledge dogs, and carriage dogs,
thick dogs and slender dogs, long
legged and short-legged; dogs for
killing rats, and dogs for killing wild
bears; dogs for use, and dogs for or
nament; dogs to care for us, and dogs
for us to care for. Then there is the
littls dog-the toy dog, as tits called.
The smalness to which dog can be
reduced is remarkable; aud if the size
of the very smallest dog had not been
officially recorded, no one could be
blamed for doubling the facts con-
corning the little fellow. Tiny,
black and tan TERROR, has the honor
of having been the smallest full
grown dog that ever lived. He be-
longed to Lieutenant General Sir
Archibald Maclaine, Of England, and
in honor of his extreme tininess is
now carefully preserved under a glass
case. Tiny was less than four inches
long, and could comfortably curl up
and take nap in common glass
tumbler. An ordinary finger ring
was large enough for his collar, and
when he sat up baby's hand would
almost have made broad and safe
resting place for him. OF course
Tiny was of no account against rat.
Indeed, hearty, self-respecting
mouse would have stood its ground
against the little fellow. But if Tiny
had not strength, he did have cour-
age, and would bark as Justify as his
little lungs would let him at the big
gest rat that ever lived--when therat
was dead.--H Nicholas.
