.r1R .ttktN tNfE RfaisE,

Some Weeln ago Nr. q. Hossfeld Of To4
peka came to Wichita for the purpose Of
examining the facilities for starting up and
successfully running trunk factory. He
was largely interested in like establish
msnt At Topeka, but considered ifall re-
ports were true that the great metropolis Of
the southwest would be better site for OPP
Grating this business on larger scale than
Topeka. On examination he. like Others,
thought this to be the proper place for the
future seat of war and Immediately rented z
spacious room on West Douglas avenue and
began to move material here preparatory TO
commencing WORK.
A reporter happened into his establish
ment yesterday and saw the new enterprise
working in its first days. Making trunks Of
all sizes and descriptions was the order of
the day.
Several hands were employed and each
seemed perfectly confident Of the fact that
he was working on trunk. The rear part
of the hall is set apart for the chop and the
front serves for q repository for stock in
trade.
Mr.. Hossfeld makes trunks a specially,
but be also keeps on hand large variety of
travelling bags, shawl straps, pocket books
and ladies satchels. Everything in the line
of travelling equipment he proposes either
to make or keep on hand. He came here
for the purpose of running wholesale and
retail establishment, and expresses himself
as agreeable surprised at the trade already
gained. He has ordered all the machinery
necessary for manufacturing in his line, and
expects to increase his capacity as trade de-
mands.
This promises in the near future to be one

Speaking of sales, the Niederlsndcr boys
report that they have never had such To-
cal demand for property, md there is scarce
ly mail from the east tha; does not bring
remittsnces for investment in Wichita real
estate. The well organized force of ten men
find all they can do without employing the
questionable method ascending out spoilers
and ropers-in. The heavy daily transact
ions are the legitimate fruit Of proper adver-
Using, and they think, to say the least, that
the habit of but.onholing strangers on the
streets and at the hotels is not creditable to
their branch of business.

in listening not only to pretty opera, but

Torrance and united in giving praise to Mrs.
Klum for the excellent manner in which she
had trained and drilled her juvenile actors.
The parts were all SO well sustained that
it would be difficult to single out for special
mention any particular character.
Between the second and third acts Miss
Lille Brandon recited a very pathetic story
as told by a seaman, and was encored.
Miss Maud Parks and Master Wilbur
Mulinix rendered in highly delightful
manner, a comic duet entitled "Matrimonial
Sweets"
Bo-Peep will be repeated at tho matinee
this afternoon.

Army onicers ana the New Mileage.

Says the Ainy and Nduy Journdl. Army
officers are not altogether pleased with the
new mileage law proposed by General
Bragg and adopted by the House. In some
respects they regard It as an improvement
over the law of last year, as under its pro.
visions an officer will be allowed mileage
over land-grant roads, which they do not
now receive; but the clause requiring them
to procure their transportation from the
Quartermaster's Department is decidedly
Objectionable to many. The objection
against that system is on account of the In.
convenience that will follow, In many
csses, in getting such transportation,
especially on occasions requiring officers to
travel promptly.
