Silence. Upstairs Helen is tuning her
self and her maid for being so late. Eleanor
speaks again.
DOME, why did you never marTy?" He
winces and turns his head away.
Don't ask me, child. Not tonight; not
tonight" Why should she turn his thoughts
back into the old groove from which her pres
ence had recalled him?

So they join the others and say all manner
of nice complimentary things to each other,
and Helen pins a flower on the professors
coat anu ADJUSTS MS Tie, ana then they drive
away, leaving the dark little parsonage be-
hind.
And the old man sits there in his lonely
room and thinks not of the sermon he must
this week deliver, nor the rounds that he
must make, but of the by-gOne days and the
woman he had loved with an exceeding love
"a love not lost but given TO her child. And
after while he goes TO his desk and opens
one little pigeon hOle-a little hole he knows
so well-and there he scans his treasures.
Poor enough are they TO other eyes; a few
old yellow letters with withered flowers be-
tween them, and wOman's faded picture,
but he lifts them all tenderiy in his hands,
and looks upon them with sad, fond eyes.
And then he takes the pansy she has given
him, and, laying 1t by her mothers pict-
ure, locks them up again in their dreary,
little prison, putting away with them all the
old time memories of his heart.

ANOTHER MANUtACTORY.

Near one year ago Mr. H. H. futile, of
California, invented what he called Tuttle's
combination washer After securing pat
ent on the same he succeeded in Introducing
it in that state despite the fact that num-
Der of other machines were manufactured
there and were already largely before the
people Manufactures making his machine
alone were established at San Francisco, Sac
ramcnto and in three other cities in the state.
The one located at san Francisco has a capa-
city of over live hundred machines per
month.
Having succeeded in establishing manufac-
tories and in introducing the machine in that
state he decided next to do the same work in
Kansas. Looking over this state he de
ci3ed that Wichita was extending
the best shipping facilities and hence was
the best point in which to hope TO establish a

before the fair opened last fall and placed

MUM was awarded his invention.
After scoring a victory at the fair he COM
menced to introduce his ma ,hine TO the people

/ borhoods in this and adjoining counties and
succeeded in taking orders. He put some
men to manufacturing the machine in this
city, Harper and ElDoraJo. They are now
making about forty machines per week

4 SLIP.

Yesterday afternoon about 1 O'Clock
Johnny Fordham was driving his pony,
hitched to a light buggy, up North Main.
When near the intersection of Williams street
the pony became frightened and ran up the
street. In attempting to turn west at Doug
las avenue, it slipped, fell to the ground and
upset the buggy. Master Fordham and
Mable Lawson, who We're riding with him,
We're both thrown out, the latter was IN
injured, but the little driver had his face
badly skinned. The bystanders released the
pony from the upturned buggy, when it was
foun1 that the pony was uninjured and that
the buggy had received no further damage
than broken dash.
The frislly little animal was soon hitched
up again and Johnny was ready to make a
second trial, but it was considered best to
let some older person give him at least a
start,

Yesterday afternoon a gentleman from ST.
Louis entered one of the real estate offices of
the city and said he had heard SO much of the
large profits to be realized from property in
this city that he thought Of making some in
vestments. The dealer, with the readiness
characteristic Of Wichita real estate men,
pointed out some OF the best bargains. "Well,
am inclined to ike those lots" he said, re-
ferrins to some pointed out. 81 can drive
you to them in few minutes replied the
dealer. ''Why, declare. l have only TWEEN
ty minutes In which to catch my train; well
here is the money, guess I'll just take them
without any further talk and he counted
out the amount, gave directions for sending
the deeds, rushed down stairs, took cab
and was driven to the depot without ever
seeing his newly acquired possessions.

Yesterday afternoon about 80 there came
near being a fatal accident at the residence
OF 4. r. Gore. at North Nam corner Of
Third street. Mrs Gore had placed a boiler
of warm water after using it for washing
clothes in the rear OF the house. The three
year-old child, unobserved by the other
members Of the family, went TO the boiler,
and leaning over u play i'll the water, fell
into it head foremost. The cry attracted the
mother to the spot; the little one was taken
out it was thought dead. DR.. McBurnie
was sent for, and after an effort the child
was resuscitated
