The president and officers Of the Ladies'
Guild Of the st. Johns desire the EAGLE
to assure the good people of Wichita that
the beautiful kirmesse will be rendered
and on the dates advertised. While the
ladies of the Guild and their friends most
sincerely regret any personal misunder-
standings or seeming misapprehenslons OF
any character, they however cannot under
stand that all the faithful work Of their
young friends and their own expectations
and hopes of delightful entertainment
for our people, should therefore suffer or
be totally ruined. These ladies have no
grievances or cause of complaint against
anybody, but fully appreciate the sacrifices
made and time given by the young people
to make the proposed entertainment &C
ceptable in all particulars and delightful
As for the manager or conductor, Mr.
Howe, he has acted in entire good faith so
far as the Guild are concerned, and up TO
the letter and spirit of his contract which
contract was acceptable to the officers OF
Guild, and they have no doubts touching
the faithfulness of his endeavors or the
honesty of his intentions in making good
all his promises to the Guild.

Professor knight, u the Harvard Medical
school, read a paper not long ago before tho
Boston Society for Medical Observation on tbs
choice Of climate for consnmptive pcrsonz.
Some Of the ideas advanced may b. OF value.
Patients who have cavities Ia their lunss,
and those who have severe hectic symptoms,
especially IL they are poor. should not leave
home; nor should tsose who have any acute
affection OF the lungs do 50 daring the aeE.s

patient can remain throughout the year. II.
on ths other hand, nothing more than tenn
porary relief and some proIoDgatlosI Of Life
can be expected, mild winter e.Irla.s i rec
commended.
While consumption presents q variety of
phases and conditions. making Il impossible
TO lay down fixed and invlri@ble rules, il
may be said that ia general the first object
aimed at by change of climate Is to enable
the patient 70 live an active. oat door life
for the purpose q assisting nutrition Of tho
lungs. and this Is best attained in situations
a. an altitude Of 400 70 {, 90 feet above tho
sea level
Dry and pure air. good proportion OK
clear days, and a rarsfisd atmosphere which
compelz greater activity Of the respiratory
organs make a mountainous country the best
for this purpose. Those for whom high aiti-
tudes may be recommends! are;
1.l Patients who shoss no more alarming
symptoms than q morning cough and e<Tec-

CITY AND COUNTY SCHOOL NOTES.

City superintendent OF schools, Prof
Chidister stated yesterday that the pres
emit enrolment is three thousand three
hundred and thirty-three.
A school room has been secured on the
corner of Lincoln street and Lawrence
avenue which it is thought will relieve the
crowded condition of affairs in the First
ward. The superintendent says more room
is needed in the north part OF the city and
he hopes relief may come IN that section
very soon.
The city teachers have been invited 70
ioin the institute for county teachers to be
held at the high school building tomorrow.
The institute promises 70 be Of more than
usual interest and large attendance is
thought certain. The program OF work
made out by County Superintendent Pence
published. as it will be remembered, some
DAYS ago Is far above the average, which it
i thought will assist greatly IN bringing
out good attendance

AMCSENENTS.
CRAWFORD GRAND.

The screaming farce-comedy, skipped
by the Light of the Moon" will be pre-
sented at the Crawford opera house to-
morrow evening The best advice to give
about this piece is TO go and see 1t. No
matter how deep-seated may be the blues,
Skipped VIII Danish them. The piece
was created for the amusement Of the pub
lie and serves its purpose admirably. The
st. Louis Globe Democrat has this TO say
about it:
Any one who has ever seen Skipped by
the Light of the Noon in former seasons
should go around TO the Standard this
week if only TO learn how great an i'm
provement has been worked IN this great
farcical comedy. Under the management
OF Fowler and Warrington the laughable
features have been intensified and the
whole is one stirring succession OF comIcal
crea lion and odd mishaps that force the
tears and pain the audience with a super
fluffy of mirth. The two leading comedi-
ans are supported by an excellent COM
pany, and those who wish to enjoy a side
splitting comedy should not miss Skipped
by the Light of the Moon"

PRINCIPALS MEETING.

At a meeting of the principals of the
city schools, held last evening, the follow
ing resolution after a most thorough dis
cussion was adopted and approved by the
superintendent:
Resolved, First-That the rhetorical
exercises, commonly known as the Friday
afternoon exercises, consist of written
COMPOSITIONS, Rotations. select readings
and such other ordinary literary exercises
as may be deemed profitable by the
teacher.
Second-That each pupil come on duty
at least once month.
Third-That these exercises be compul-
sorry in all grades above the third and be
considered part Of the regular school
work
The superintendent suggested that be
cause these exercises were held late on
Friday afternoon many came TO look upon
them as amusement and recreation merely.
Since they are to be coordinate
with the other work in Importance
ne would suggest that some other time
during the week, as Wednesday be taken,
instead of Friday, and that the exercises
be held at some otter time Of day than at
the close.
The suggestion was approved, and it was
also decided TO give the work more OF q
literary character than it has been hereto
fore Trashy productions and question
able dialect pieces are 20 be excluded. and
an effort made TO cultivate the taste for
standard authors
It was further agreed that pupils should
be requested to provide themselves with
blank books to copy and preserve such
gems, and facts as would be given from
time 70 time, as well as copies Of compost
tioas and productions prepared for the
literary exercises. After the transaction
of considerable OF routine business the
meeting adjourned to meet again at the
call Of the superinten

RETURNED

4 few days since note was made of the
departure of two boys, Robert Packer and
George Russell, from their home quite
suddenly and in a manner very much
unexpected TO their parents and friends.
They were, as then stated, traced to New
ton. but all inquiry at the time tailed to
gather whether they had gone east to
Kansas City or west to Colorado. Day
before yesterday word was received from
Ellsworth that the two youngsters We're
stopping there with an aunt and had, upon
telegraphic advices, been detained by the
sheriff. They were sent home yesterday.
According to statements made they were
evidently bound for the Colorado line and
showed some regret at being stopped SC
early in their Journey.

WHAT HE THOUGHT,

Chas. Bienenstok, of st. Louis, Que OF
the leading wool dealers of the United
States, is in the city, guest or Morton
WoIlman. Mr. Bienenstok is an extern
sive traveller, having visited not only every
city in this country but also spent much
time in Europe. Last night in speaking
of his impression Of Wichita be said:
The city has most certainly bright and
glorious future. /, stranger, coming in
here, csn see this more plainly than per
haps people who have always lived here.
This rich and prosperous state of Kansas
can certainly support right here city OF
100 coo, and such Wichita VIII soon be-
There is one thing that l have always
greatly admired: il is the shaded pleasant
streets, you can't find prettler anywhere.
1t is a great relief 70 get off the cars and
ride down among the trees OF the residence
portion OF the city. 1t reminds one that he
is driving through park Oh. yes. in
deed YOU can bank on Wichita for she has
a future brighter than any city Of its size

FIGURING OMAN EXCURSION.

Some Republicans were talking yester-
day about the scheme of getting up spec
ial train and going to Indianapolis, reach
ing that point on the 10th inst, and call
on General Harrison. The following day
hear Blaine and Morton speak.
1t was decided to lay the matter before
the Republican central committee and see
if such an arrangement can be made. A
number were heard to say they would like
to ioin an excursion of that kind, and the
main objection seemed to be the little
time to get matters arranged for the ex-
cursion and the fact that to get there on
time they might be compelled to miss Sen
ator Piumb's speech
