ANTHONY.

To the Editor OF the Eagle
As the other towns tributary 10 Wichita
are represented in your estimablc paper, We
think it nothing but just that the best city
(Anthony) in the state west Of Wichita
should have a passing notice.
Our building boom still continues. Two
hundred and fifty residences have been
erected during the past summer; many of
them costing up in the thousands. Fifteen
large business buildings have also been
erected. A beautiful bank building is near
| ing completion at q cost Of ten thousand
dollars. Our public school building cost
twcnty-fv thousand. The Baptist church
ten thousand. 4 U. p. church is under
process of construction. Our citizens are
well satisfied with the water works The
water is the purest and best. Over one
hundred teams are at work on the extern
sion of the Fl Scott road from this place
to Kiowa The Border will be complet-
Cd TO Bluff City within thirty days and the
citizens Of Anthony expect to hear the
'toot' Of the engine by the first of Fcbru-
airy. We have it from good authority that
the Santa Fe will build line of railway
through Anthony by the way of Norwich.
The cnterprising citizens of this place are
determined to have their share Of the rail
roads
The corn crop Of Harper county is com
paratively good, and the farmers seem well
satisfied; perhaps Harper county suffered
less from drought than any other county in
the state
Travelling men unhcsitatingly say that
Anthony has the finest location and the
best business buildings Of any town of her
size 1--WE have population of about four
thousandl in the state. Parties who have
an eye TO business are investing in real es-
tate.
Woodford, the great temperance orator,
will be here during the greater part of next
week. O. b.

Enough peopls have come into Kansas
this year to found a city as large as Balti-
more, and there is plenty of room for
thousands upon thousands more Kansas
could contain in plenty and luxury, if they
are OF the right stamp, a population of at
least {, 900, 900. without crow ing, and we

INCLINED TO POKE FUN.

From the hingtnGn Courier,
The editor Of the Wichita EAGLE had
recovered from his recent illness, was again
at the Office and ready TO enter upon his
oncrous duties when IN accident occurred
which may cause a relapse. Just how it
began is not known, but. when a delega-
ton of his fellow citizens called to remind
him that Wichita's newspaper boom had
been somewhat neglected during his illness,
they found him in a fainting condition
For explanation as TO the cause of his weak
and nervous condition hc pointed to the
following in the Barton County Democrat:
"When Great Bend gets the roads that are
now contemplated. she will have Il
growth in comparison with which
Wichita viii pale into insignifcance. In
dignation coming to the rescue of Mr..
Murdock's enteebied nerves he excitedlv
eXclaimed: WHY, gentlemen, if | had to
be confined to my room much longer, Il an
opolis and kettlevillc, Conway Springs
and Stringtown would each be claiming
TO be superior points at which to locaaae the
great metropolis of the west" Later infor-
nation by special to the Courier is to the
effect that Nj Murdoch viii recover. He
now recognizes the Importance of we'll
bciiS 10 INC Guy WHICH ne mas created, ana
it has stimulated him TO shake off his feel
ing Of indispOsition like one of the nu-
merous real estate agents of that city re-
loving himself Of a score of corner lots
The Courier Is kindly but sincerely in
formed that the editor of the EAGLE might
have passed into the realms of rest without
affecting the boom of the city which has
been marked by the finger of destiny as the
great metropolis of the southwest. The
best Of us. together with all we have done,
will be forgotten within week after the
clods of the valley have shut out the sunshine
The Wichita Of fifty years hence will know
little Of the men who made her. 1t couldn't
be otherwise and it is sad, but it it true.

WHAT is THE usEa

What Is the use Of this impetuous hastee
The end Is certain. Let US take our
time
And hoard the vital forces that we waste
Before our day has reached its golden
prime.
What is the use of rushing with spent
breath
After old age, its furrows, its white
hair?
Why need we hurry so to welcome Death,
Or 60 g half nlf.s way With hands stretched out
There is no USE Dear hearts, if we but
wait
All things will find US. Let us pause,
say.
We can not so beyond the silent gate
That lies short days journey down the
way.
So let US take our time in youths fair
bowers;
The summer season is so brief at best.
Let Us look on the stars, and pluck the
flowers
And when our feet grow weary let us rest.

A Healthy Growth:

TTHE SUCCESSFUL CAREER OF
Il the Mutual Reserve Fund Life Asso-
citation is marvellous in the annals of life
insurance enterprise. Its name has be-
come a tower of strength, and has been
we'll earned by the untiring devotion of
President Harper and his associates. Its
astonishing prosperity has provoked attacks
which are best repel!ed by frank and full
exhibit of its greatly increasing line of
business. Up to July /, 1885, this shows a
gain of no less than S13 2l4, $50 over that
Of the corresponding period last year.
In June alone its mortuary receipts ex-
ceeded S250,OO0 of which over $50, 900 went
into the Reserve Fund-that triple buttresS
upon which the association justly prides
itself. This reserve now amounts to S425,-
900, and is employed for three purposes
only-to pay death claims, if any Should
occur in excess Of the American Experience
Mortality Tables; to make good any posss'
ible deficiency in the Death Fund Account,
and to be apportioned among those who
have been members OF the Association nj
teen wears, etc. AS the first and second
contingencies named are not likely to arise,
the third object is the one upon which the
fund is practically expended. 1t is full OF
other good points, among which may be
mentioned the economical salary list--less
than $4,000 for carrying on the whole work
of the vast institution payments to
widews and orphans at the rate of over
50, 900 cash cash day.-From the old and

THE CHANGE OF GAUGE.
How the Work was Done on the Eutaw-
Vile Railroad.

willie Railroad.
The change of gauge on the Eutaw-
vile Railroad was completed at 2 O'Clock
P. NJ, on Tuesday. The work of shift
ING the rails began at II O'Clock On Mon.
day, and was actively prosecuted until
the track along the entire line, together:
with the side tracks and switches, had
all been changed to the new standard,
The work was done by force of seventy
five hands under the immediate supervl-.
sion of Mr.. Grimes, the supervisor or
the road, and the sectlon-masters who
are employed on that line. The road IS
now twenty-five miles in length from
Pregnall', the old Forty-one Mile sta
ton on the South Carolina Railway, to
Bulbs, the first station above Eutaw-.
vile.
The two engines Of the company were
changed at the car shops Of the South
Carolina Railway Company in this city,
and were sent over the road immediate
ly after the change of gauge. The COM
pany have ordered two new engines
from the Baldwin Locomotive Works
for the standard gauge, which are eX-
nected to arrive here within the next
week or ten days.
The work of changing the gauge of
the two engines was greatly facilitated
by Messrs. P. j. Cochran, VIM. Smith
and George Gramling, of the South
Carolina Railway shops, to whom the
Eutawvllle Road is greatly indebted. AS
soon as the change Of gauge had been.
made Mr.. Barkley, the president of the
company, together with few invited
guests, passed over the line and found
that the work had been done in thenost
complete manner.
The Eutawville Railroad is in flour
ishing condition. The track, as already
stated. has been laid a distance Of
TWENTY-FIVE miles and a contract has
been made, subject to forfeiture if the
work is not completed within sixty days,
the time specified, for the completion OF
the road to Elloree, a distance of forty
miles. The company does not. now owe
a cent, and the work that has already
been done has cost something like $l7O,-
OOO. The road is. owned by r. G..
Barley, and S. j. Pregna1l: or Char
lesion, A. L. Merriam, Gen. John Har.
lin, A.. A. Dame, A. Lissberger, OF
New York, and A. Ames Hewlett, OF
Syracuse, N. Y. The country along
the line Of the road is said to be rapidly
developing and the business Of the COM
pany is already very promising.
The first mail tram passed over the
road on June to Vance's station, and
daily mails will now be transmitted over
the road, leaving Charleston at 7.2O
A. NJ, and returning at9 P. M. The
success which has attended the develop
ment of this enterprise shows what per-
sistent work and well-directed energy
can accomplish, and is lesson to rail-
road builders throughout the Southern
country.-News and Courier, June 8.

Peruvian Guano Coming into Market.

feruVlstn IuRnO SOlnlnS INTO hdTkeC.
There is apparently possibility that
Peruvian guano may again come into gen
eral use, from which its high price has for
q long time excluded it. The Peruvian
government, and Subsequently the Chill
ian government, insisted for number of
years on keeping up the price of guano,
Notwithstanding that all competing man
ures had fallen so low as to render the
purchase of guano for most crops and on
most soils an extravaganza in which most
farmers could not indulge. 1t is salts
factory, therefore, to learn that under a
contract with the Chilian government
guano is now to be consigned to the
United Kingdom on terms that will enable
it to be sold at prices which will place it
On q footing with other artificial manures.
Several cargoes have already arrived in
England under the new arrangement, and
will shortly be placed in the Market
