GLUCOSE MANDATORY.

Another schemeis on deck for glucose
mandatory. This, the latest, has its origin
with Mr.. James knight, . gentleman who
has been for years connected with similar
establishment in Fon Du Lac, Wisconsin.
Again and again hearing of Wichita as the
coming great city Of the west, he detailed
himself Is an investigating committee Of one
to look into the truthfulness of the wild
rumors"-as he expresses them-and last
week spenta few days in the city.
Like everyone else he expressed himself
as more than pleased with what he saw
and thought that distance rather
tanned the "wild rumors" instead of making
them the opposite. He thought all the sur.
roundings encouraging for the establish.
ment of mandatory and seemed to en-
terrain no fears but that it could be success.
fully operated.
One of the main materials used by hi:
establishment is corn and the cheapness Of
this article here as compared with prices
where he is now operating seemed to him 6
point decidedly in his favor. He thought
that some time the east and northeast would
be compelled to give over to the west al
manufacturing establishments in which
vegetables are used.
He left the city yesterday morning for his
home. He expects to return shortly to
further mature his new plans.

THE sANrAFE SCHEME

This reporter is right onto the Santa FEES
depot racket now, and it has been changed
lately.
W. III. Finn, foreman of bridges and
buildings, with a civil engineer, was here on
Friday with chart Of the yard in its re.
nodded form and laid out the whole bust
ness. The entire yard is TO be remodled
and done up in great shape, provided the
bonds for the Rock Island are carried but
if they are defeated very little will be done,
The exact location of both the passenger and
freight depots are known, but this scribe and
pharisee is pledged to secrecy for some time.
After the survey was made the company put
gang to work moving posts away down on
Kellogg street, below the stock yards, and
all that piece of ground below the stock
yards that is cut up into holes will be filled
up aud levelled OF, from which fact people
may get pointer. II is absolutely no use
for spectators 10 try to bride the scribe TO
give the whole thing away Just now. 1t

BASE BALL.


The base bail season is here in all its glory
and the boys are at the bat. There was q
strong kick against Sunday games last year
but they were kept up all the same and the
feeling among base ball batters tends that
way this year also. The question Of outdoor
amusements on Sunday is one tina: has occu-
pied public attention extensively the past
year and in some cities there is growing
feeling in their favor while in others they
are entirely prohibited by the local author
ties.
W. NJ. Morgan, who is said to be an ex-
perienced ball player and fine pitcher, ar
rived in the city from st. Louis yesterday
morning and it ia said will give his attention
to bilding up the Wichita nine this year,
and if possible get them into the league.
Morgan has played with professionals two
or three years and is said to be good. There
is report that there will be game some
where in the city this afternoon.

ANOTHER BUSY SATURDAY.

Yesterday WAS another of Wichita's model
Saturdays. There was q continual flow OF
people on the streets from morning until
night and there was no let up at night for
all the evening trains brought in loads Of
human freight and the street parade was
kept up.
Wichita's corps of commercial tourists
came in from all points as did also the usual
dose of commercial men who make this city
for Sunday All the hotels are crowded.
Business of all sorts was excellent yester-
day and wagons and carriages were flying
about in all directions. Auctioneers were
crying their horses and other articles on the
streets, and the corner of Douglas avenue
and Main street was full of bowling der
wishes all day. Fakirs of various stripes
we're numerous and everything went.
One stranger Was heard to remark to an
other at the postofiice, as the stream Of hu-
manity surged in and out Of that popular
resort. that this was an all sheol fired town.
and as the scribe watched the rush and jam
there he thought SO too.

For the Esg!e.
TO ELSIE.
A Fairy Story.


1t was once ON time" as tie old legends
Say,
That the queen of the fairies came sailing
away
From the fairy land bright;
A message had come that the beautiful
flowers,
Who dwelt within one of her favorite
bowers,
Had been weeping all night.
Now the queen of the fairies is wondrously
Lind,
And it g-ieved her sweet heart without
measure to find
That some mischievous sprite,
After piedging to secrecy solemn, had
brestbsd
In the ear OF the Larkspur, secret long
sheathed
By kind fairy's might.
Twas this, that the king of far elf-land had
willed
That the bower where the blossoms their
sweetness distilled,
Should be ruthlessly shorn.
Now the LArkspur is tickle. as every one
knows,
And the secret ere long to the heart of q
~ q EcPuyi iS ooiAS'
Then the night wind, who searches the
heart Of the rose,
Finds the secret and filings it about as he
goes
By each death doomed flower.
Then plying moon-beam stole down to
the queen,
To tell her what sorrowful things he had
seen,
In her fayorite bower.
Though the queen of the fairies must bow
to the will
OF the cruel elf king. there remains to her
still
A wonderful power.
Though they die, by her sceptre she coon
can restore
Each fower-soul TO blossom and dwell ever
more
In fairy lands bower.
And she gave to each flower the choice Of
the way
She should end her sweet life, on that sor-
rowful day
Awaiting her there.
Now the gardener came early one beautiful
morn,
Ere noontide the bower of its beauties was
shorn
For a charity fair.
.'Ah, me-" cried the Rose, in her anger
grown red.
Ere night l will surely be withered and
dead
In this sitting air
/ wish that sweet lady who's standing SO
nigh
Would see what beauty am ere l die
In this charity fsir."
''Ah me-" cried the Lily, grown white in
her grief,
How weary / am 1t would be relief
If tina, pale student there,
A CLEANER in wisdom's wide field, would
but say
~ on are sweet and take me forever away
From this charity fair"
And each dropping flower expressed her
desire
To breath out her life in some cause she
deemed higher
Than charity fairs.
The white rose alone is unseltish, and cries
''Oh how happy are all who for charity die;
Murmuring flower bewarer'
The queen of the fairies gave each her re-
quest,
Each died in the way che deemed sweetest
ana Oest,
And to fairy land soon
The fower-souls were borne by the fairies
to dwell.
In the bower of the Queen who loved them
SO well
And granted this boon.
Now Elsie, who think you in those happy
bowers
The Queen of the fairies made Queen of the
flowers
To reign ever there?
Oh. the kind hearted fairy decided, the day
The pure white rose consented to stay
At the charity fair.
For love, pure, unscl.isb, fails never 20 bless.
Who seeks but her own, will never quite
Loves wonderful power.
Howbsit we know the good fairy still reigns
For Elsie, does not the white rose still re-
main
The Queen of the flowers?
AMANDA +. WIGHT.

SCHOOL NOTES.

This week closes the city schools. Schools
have been in session nine months with an
intermission of about two weeks.
As far q the writer has been able to learn
the past year has been an unusually pros
porous one. The schools have run smoothly.
No friction worth mentioning has occurred
during the school year.
Some excellent work in the way Of exam
ination papers is now on file in the superin-
tendent's Office. This work will be sent to
the National Teachers association 1t Topeka
in July.
The high school commencement exercises
take place at the opera house Wednesday
evening of this week. To these exercises all
are invited. and the seats are free. The
graduating class has been granted the priv
ilege of reserving q few seats for their imme-
diste friends and those especially interested
in them and their exercises. Arnold's
orchestra and the celebrated Lotus club will
furnish the music for the commencement ex-
ercises.
Miss Ada Guthrie, q member of the senior
class, has not been able to complete her
work on account of sickness.

THE ONWARD BOOM.

No matter when this reporter takes drive
to any part of the city he becomes almost
bewildered 10 the presence of what has been
done in the way of building and general i'm
provement since his last visit to the same
locality. Time was when one could take in
the whole city and do it up in day, but
that time is no more. One can find now in
any quarter OF the city enough to engage
his attention day. These reflections were
awakened by visit TO Garrison's addition
yesterday. Tie writer took Il good survey
of that section last year VIXEN the canning
factory WAS built and when the greater
part of what is now thickiy settled
part of town, with neat
houses and very handsome church,
graded streets and all the appearance of a
city, was nothing but gardens and peach
orchards. An immense amount of work has
been done in that quarter this spring and
the end is not vet.
Oak street has been graded in fine shape
as far east Of the Sanie Fe track as Cleveland
avenue, an eighty-feet-wide street, running
north and south, and Oak street is laid out
and stsked clear through to Frisco Heights.
and bridge will soon be built over CHS
holm creek on that street, then the
street will be opened east rs lar as
Frisco Heights, and next year the street rail-
road will be built east on that fine street.
The Street Car company now have their
steel rails laid clear to the cemetery, the
route being east on Oak street 10 Cleveland
avenue and north on that broad street TO
Frisco avenue, thence east along the last
named street to the cemetery.
A large number of very comfortable
dwellings have been built in this section
lately and several more are in progress. Mr..
Garrison is building himself very commodi-
Gus and well arranged residence on the corner
of Oak street and Cleveland avenue, and
Mr.. Barrel late of st. Hops has just COM
pleted very neat frame house in that local
ity. Everything is booming and the origi-
nal six acres Il. $. Garrison bought of DIR.
Allen there few years ago for gardening
purposes is now village of neat houses,
and he has about sixty acres more out there
q portion of which lies east of Chisholm
creek, which he expects TO see built up in
the same way in year or two. Col. Wood
cock and E. A. Dorsey are in with Garrison
in this last addition and the business is done
in the office of Woodcock, Dorsey and Gar
rison, in the Dorsey building on Main street
Nearly every other portion of the city is
growing about the same as this and one can
lee new roots and new gables looming up in
every direction and large stretches Of new
sidewalk greets the eye everywhere; some.
places il is board and in others cement and
tone. Compared with this time last year it
5 the writers opinion that the building
boom is three 10 one in favor of this year
md it is as yet only well begun.

RAILROADS AND THE FARMERS.

There were q great many farmers in the
city yesterday and the question of voting
aid to the Rock Island and other proposed
new lines, was discussed pro and con on
almost every corner and in nearly every
store. While majority of the farmers
recognize the advantages Of these lines and
will vote for the bonds, realizing that they
will be benefited as much and perhaps to q
greater degree than the people of this city,
yet strange to say, good many farmers are
opposed to the bonds. Bonds are bug
bear that brighten timid peo-
pie and they are afraid they
will be over burdened with taxes,
whereas little figuring can hardly fail to
demonstrate that they will serve more to
alleviate their burthens and build up all
their interests. In this very city even strange
to say there are five or Elk property owners
who will vote against the bonds. Apropo.
of the advantages of competing lines of rail-
road, Mr.. E. j. Healy, practical. level
headed farmer and stock raiser, late from
near Mount Sterling, H., place where the
lack of railroad competition was, and is,
sorely felt, is one ofthe most ardent sup
porters Of the impending propositions. He
says it is because there is no competition in
railroads from bis old home to Commercial
eenters, that he left there. He was an ex-
tensive shipper and had fair opportunities
to see how the cat jumps and he says his
advice to all with whom he conversed about
coming west was to get somewhere where
there will be plenty of railroad competition.
Illustrating his reasons for such advice he
said that while be lived on the railroad be-
tween Hannibal and Chicago, about forty
mile. nearer the latter city than was Hanni-
bal, he could ship his stuff back to the
latter city and from there to Chicago for
one-fourth of what it would cost him 10 ship
from his nearest station to Chicago.
The freight on car load
of cattle from his place to Chicago was S35.
and often from Hannibal to Chicago, forty
miles further away, the freight WAS only So
per car. But it i, not necessary to 60 so far
off for An illustration; at Sedalis, No.,
where the Missouri Pacific has the entire
field, car rates are $40 higher to st. Louis
than they are from Kansas City to St. Louis,
the latter city is about ninety miles
further from st. Louis than is Sedalia; and
again, as shown in these columns last year, q
car load of cattle can be sent from Calves
ton, Texas, to Chicago, for the same
rate that car will cost from Arkansas City
to Chicago, although Galveston is about
1000 miles further away. Whist is the cause
Of this! Railroad competition. And yet
one can hear some people say that the rail-
roads will fix the matter up between them
selves and charge what they like. Just as
Mr.. Healy says, any farmer in this county
will gain as much on the price Of one car of
produce; by reason of having two more
lines to Chicago, ss the addition
al tax he will hsve to pay in consequence of
the bonds being given.

MORE LIGHT ON THE QUESTION:.

Last evening the most conservative were
compelled to say that the city was on IN
electric bust. It was e:42 O'Clock when the
Schuyler Electric Light company sent the
current of electricity through the wires that
led to their lamps. Long before this tune
quite number Of ladies and gentlemen bad
assembled at the plant to give the enter
prisea cheer on it, first starting. No little
anxiety was manifested by al present while
waiting for the coming moment On the
part of the management the importance Of
the occasion vas fully comprehended, and
the rush with which everything had been
done in order to start up last evening was
not calculated to lessen their in
terest in the matter. The lever that
connected the dynamo with their lamps was
turned by the tiny fingers Of Miss Hattie
Hatton, daughter of Mr.. Charles Hatton.
An EAGLE reporter visitsd the plant last
evening and found everything either gener-
ating electricity or capable Of such start
ling act Only one dynamo was being used,
while the others will be made ready for
business in few days. Three have capa-
city Of running thirty lights of 1000 candle
power; three capable Of running twenty-five.
which gives the entire plant . capacity of
los lights. About 100 lights have been
contracted for and more orders are coming
in daily.
Two Westinghouse engines furnish the
power. They are si1ty-four horse power.
Douglas avenue last evening presented
quite city like appearance. Seven lamps
were hung between Main street and Fifth
avenue. Everybody was out to see the
lighted avenue and the electric light question
was the one that engaged public attention.
The corner of Main street and Douglas ave-
nue. was the central part of attraction. The
Thompson-Houston and Schuyler lights,
side by side, furnished good opportunity
to see which WIS the best, if either.

HALLS CIRCUS.

1t seems that our city is to be peculiarly
fortunate in the matter of circuses this year,
undoubtedly because Wichi.s is the leading
city of the west. Halls circus will be here
on the 26th inst. A circus furnishes what
may well be termed outdoor amusement,
and hence is q relief from opera perform
ance, and probably for this reason the circus
retains it hold on the people. L. makes no
difference, old and young alike take in the
circus
