Inst stop a Minute.

Did you know that Ford's second addi-
ton on the Little river just eighty rods west
of Carey's park, joined by Rich's addition
and Ferrell's 4th addition, is one of the most
beautiful suburban additions to our besuti-
ful city! Such is the fact my friend. This
addition is located upon gentle swell just
south and west of the Little Arkansas river.
The elevation is about Is or 20 feet higher
than the junction of Main street and Doug
las avenue. The soil is deep sandy loan,
unsurpassed for fertility. Good water easily
reached. In short, this is one of the most
desirable locations for residences so close
to the business part of the city. The money
is pledged to build q substantial bridge
across the Little river at the southwest cor
ner Of Cary's park on Cary avenue, which
will bring residents into this addition within
FIVE minutes walk Of the present street car
line. The lets are 100 feet by 800 feet giving
an east and west front to each lot. The
price is $500 per lot. Each lot is the size of
eight lots % by $50 #, and at the price
named would amount to but S25 per lot of
the ordinary size. The terms are one-half
cash, the balance in one year at 8 per cent.
interest.
Here is golden opportunity for the
speculator, and the very chance the poor
man is looking for to secure homestead for
little money. Call on NJ. 5. Rochelle, 221
east Douglas avenue, up stairs, or Z. p.

w1cu,1A.s MANUFACTURES.

1t has been assert ed that Wichita has no
manufactures to give employment to labor.
The following figures will prove that while
there are no large manufacturing concerns
in this city good many hands find en-
ployment in various establishments engaged
in manufacturing, and good round sum is
paid monthly to these employees. A reporter
started out to Investigate the matter yester-
day with the following results:
The Globe Iron works employs on an
average 10 hands. John F. Bowman, stair
manufacturer, East Douglas avenue, men.
The East Douglas Avenue Sash, Door and
Blind factory, Z. The Wichita Cornics
works, &; but about the LIST of May
when this concern gets to running full
blast they will employ abou. 25 men. The
Eureka foundry, just started, viii employ 10
hands. There are men employed in FAIRIES
machine shop on Fourth avenue. We have
four mills engaged in tie manufacture of
-four, which employ in the aggregate 40 men.
There are so men engaged in the manufac-
ture Of brick, 25 in cigars. The Wichita
Cracker and Confectionery employs so
hands; A. L. Bostick 10 in the manufacture
of clothing. There are in sll % men en-
gagged on tin work in the city. McComb
Bros, manufacturers of saddles and harness,
employ IS men. The EAGLE book bindery
and job Office 30 men. The Wichita marble
works, IL. The Arkansas Valley Fence
company, 5. The Wichita planning and
sash dcor and blind factory, II. The Wich-
ita foundry and machine shop, Z. The
Wichita carriage works. %. The Portland
Stone works 8, the Eagle Cornice works II,
the Mineral Water work 5. Biting Bros.
men in the manufacture of clothing, Lille
& Bergman and F. W. Swabb Z. There
are 50 engaged in the millinery and ladies'
wear, u mattress makers, bed spring max
ers. 10 watch makers, 20 harness makers, q
boot and shoe makers, and many others not
taken into account. The new pump factory,
that is nearly completed, will employ 10
hands, and the Youngmyer Bros. are going
to build pillow factory on Fourth avenue,
where the hardwood lumber yard now is.
The new coffee and spice mills will employ
about 20 hands. From this statement it
will be seen that this summer there will be
employed in all lines of manufactures in
this city 527 hands, whose average daily
wages is 81, making sl,054 per day, or
81, 404 per month, that is paid out for help
in our manufactures. This is no small
item, and this statement which is not exsg-
Grated, proves there are some manufactures
