Pickering LIGHTS.

The early part Of last evening found the
electric lights on Douglas evening giving
poor service, or, rather, no service. The
darkness was due to some broken machin-
cry at the station, which by Q O'Clock was
repaired sufficiently to start the lights.
Concerning the electric lights, Council
man Buckridge said yesterday that he had
observed that the electric light companies
have been giving much better service since
last council night than for some time
previous. In the last meeting Of the coun-
Gil. however, he had been reported incor-
rectly. as he did not want to move half the
lights on Douglas avenue 10 Main street
but did not want TO move any lights
from Douglas avenue, but la
vored moving lights from the rest
dence portion of the city to Main
street In some places in the residence
portion of the city the lights he considered
were too thick and these could De- rhlnned
out for the betterment Of Main street.
This plan, however. according 10 the rule
made at the last meeting Of the council,
would cost the city something provided
the electric light companies wouid agree 20
make changes. and II they would not give
their consent they would be called upon 70
encounter troubles new and strong.

COME To BE RENEWED.

Attorney General Bradford and State
Treasurer Hamilton spent yesterday in the
metropolis. As Secretary Allen was al
ready in the city, Wichita came very near
having the state administration on her
hands. To the end that the views of the
states representative men may be en-
larged, their experience ripened, and they
thereby become the more fully equipped
for the satisfactory discharge of incum-
bent duties and responsibilities, it is well
that they are found mixing with and catch
ing some of the spirit of the inhabitants of
the typical city of this newer civilization
of the indomitable west. Wichita. so far as
her weight and influence are concerned, does
not simply mean the forty thousand people
who are numbered as her inhabitants; for
the essence OF her originality and vigor is
going out all over the broad valley. and
even beyond, melting, molding and inspir-
ing other peoples, who in turn impress
Others and still others. Wichita may not
have yet reached Topeka with her spirit
and her EAGLE-which are one and the
same uhing-Topeka so far away-not in
distance particularly. but away off in every
other way, but she VIII reach her yet and
effectually, and no better sign or promise
could be had of that fact than that Topeka
editors and the state officers are being con-
strained to visit US

4 SAD HOME.

Mrs. Benton, wife of James Benton, on
East Oak street, died night before last at
midnight, after a very brief illness, fol-
lowing the birth of a badly. Rev. Hewitt,
cur informant, says the grief and desola-
ton of the little home was one of the sad
dest pictures he ever saw. Mrs. Benton
was the mother of six little children. the
oldest but nine years and the youngest of
only as many days. The husband sits in
his woe helpless to help those who know
nowhere else to 90 for help. The picture
is indeed a sad one.
Sometimes it really seems as if the
clouds of this life We're more than the
sunshine of it. These six little children
are forced to even begin their life under a
cloud, one whose blackness it will take
many bright days to relieve. But as the
sunshine and happiness OF this life is to be
found principally in the years of childhood
and youth, how discouraging are their
chances. But the mother
Out of the night and dark,
Out of the storm,
Where no quick frightened "Hark,''
Calls an alarm,
is no doubt safe beyond the clouds whose
shadows hover SO darkly over her dear
ones this Sabbath morning. over that little
home where her presence has been its
light. its everything,
