BURTON CAR MODEL.
To be Sent TO Cincinnati ana Placed in Wichita's
Exhibit.

While visiting the mammoth Burton car
works YESTERDAY afternoon, an EAGLE
representative was by the courtesy OF Mr..
r C. Wider the general manager of the
worzs, permitted to inspect the model of
the famous Burton stock car,which is TO be
seat to the Cincinnati centennial exposi-
ton and placed in the exhibit made by
Wichita and southwestern Kansas.
The car is complete in every de-
tail aud represents accurately all OF the
features OF the Burton car as adapted for
handling range cattle. The CIR, which is
four feet ten inches long, is built to a scale
of one and Cne-half inches TO the foot. 1t
is mounted on neat steel trucks, proyidAd
with springs in exact imitation OF the
large cars The only difference between
the two being that the roof of the model
is hinged in the middle, SO as to be raised
and show the inside OF the car. The floor
is grooved to provide for drainage.
There are, however. in the roof of the
actual car, trap doors, which are used for
ventilation and Cor filling the water tanks.
The water tanks are suspended under the
roofs. AMI from each is a small hose with
which u I'LL the metallic water and grain
troughs along the inside of either side of
the car, its full length. These are on
either side for the reason that some cattle
will 90 in one way and some another, and
cannot be turned. As soon as they are
done drinking all OF the troughs are
raised by the movement of lever at the
end of the roof, thus giving more room and
serving to keep the same clean. Above
and in front of the heads OF the cattle are
the hay racks which are kept filed all the
time on a trip. In the end of the car are
doors which open clear to the roof and
slide to one side. making the car very de-
sirable for shipping lumber OF any kind
or railroad iron, as well as merchandise,
on return trips to the cattle country. The
car is equipped with the Westinghouse air
brake and the Hinson automatic safety
coupler. A full sized car viii be SO feet
and q inches, inside length, weighing
IS 900. The whole is mounted upon a
neat little section OF steel track and will
form one OF the most attractive, creditable
and useful features OF Wichita's exhibit.
1t will be shipped about the middle OF this
week.

ALBERT E. NUyN DROWNED
Yesterday Affernoen in Walnut RIVER. Funeral
this Afternooa At O'clock.

Yesterday afternoon the family of Mr..
A. J. Cook, residing at the northeast cor
ner of Central and Hillside avenues, were
startled By receiving telegram from
Augusta announcing that Mr.. Albert z.
Mum, the son in-law OF Mr.. Cook, had
been drowned while bathing in the Walnut
river couple of miles south of that city.
The particulars of the sad affair were
learned last evening by an EAGLE repre-
sentative who called at the residence of
Mr.. Cook. The deceased, who was q con-
tractor and builder, aged about thirty-fve
years, had married Miss Emma Cook and
resided on Central avenue, short distance
east Of Mr. Cooks home He leaves one
child, a little girl about seven years Of
age.
Friday morning Mr.. Mum, in company
with his two btothers-in-law, Robert Cook,
Nathan Cook and Charles Vail and Charles
Cook, the little son Of Robert Cook, left
by buggy for a fishing trip
TO the Walnut river near Au-
custa, about twenty-five miles
from his home. All went well until yes
terday afternoon at o'clock. After they
had finished fishing the party went bath
~ been swollen by the rains. Mr.. Mum
could not swim, and before he knew his
danger had gone beyond his depth His
cries for help brought his brothers-inlaw
TO him first, they being nearest, but as
neither could swim, Mr.. Robert Cook ex-
tended him fishing pole. but the current
was so strong he could not hold on By
that time Mr. Vail, who can swim, reach
ed the spot and jumping in swan to
Mr. Nunn's assistance. As soon as ne got
near enough he was clutched by the
drowning man in such manner rs TO
make it impossible for him to render any
assistance, and was himself nearly drown
ed before he could extricate himself, after
having gone under the water the second
time. He had barely enough strength
left TO get TO shore after reaching which, he
Immediately became unconscious, and was
with great difficulty rescuscitated.
The body of the drowned man did not
float very far down stream and was soon
found. The party Immediately started
for this city, which was reached before
supper time. The remains were taken to
the residence OF Mr.. Cook and Undertaken
H W. Kendle Immediately notified. They
were afterwards taken TO Mr.. Munn's late
home, from which place the funeral SER
vices will be conducted this afternoon at
O'Clock by Rev. J. D. Hewitt, late pastor
of the First Presbyterian church.
The deceased was a remarkably cautious
man and his death was alike great sur
prise and great affection to his friends,
many of whom called last evening to
offer their SymDathies

The president,s Success.

The attempt of the presidents critics
to irnpeach either his motives or his acts
has It's sole foundation in the desperate
straits of the Republican party. It organs
end orators select his veto of the depen-
dent pension bill because they hope to
control the soldier vote by false repre-
sentations and to revive the prejudice
which once vented itself in clubbing all
Democrats "copperheads. =" They fail to
see that the Office of the political resur-
rectionist has been abolished; that the
victory of 1884 was the beginning of q
new cycle; that Mr.. Cleveland represents
an era of new issues; that the old things
have passed away, and with them the
fears and animosities of the past. No In
telligent man believes that Mr.. Cleveland
has an unpatriotic thought or ambition
No intelligent person can read with pa
thence the impotent attacks upon his
Americanism and loyalty. He takes his
course in sympathy with the feelings and
aspirations of the people, and those who
marvel at his success betray their own
blindness and lack of sagacity.-Brooklyn

Whether the Republicans would have
gained any special advantage by the ac
ceptance of Mr.. Porter is open to ques-
tion. While the ex-governor is highly
esteemed by his neighbors and has de-
monstrated his running capacity in elect
i've contests, his enforced candidacy
would have been reflection on Gen
Harrison's standing before the people of
the commonwealth. With abundant
plansibility the prospects of the Re
publican presidential nominee in his
home constituency needed bolstering
up so badly that it became neces-
sary to dr.goon reluctant politician
into the headship of the state
ticket. Already Gen. Harrison has been
placed at decided disadvantage by the
overshadowing fame of Mr.. Blaine. To
compel him to play second fiddle" at his
own doors, as well as before the country at
large, could hardly be regarded otherwise
than as gratuitous humiliation. I'm
doubtedly he prefers that the burden of
the canvass in Indiana shall rest on his
shoulders. If that is his desire he has
reached a wise conclusion. If he cannot
command the electoral vote of the state
without Ex-Governor Porter In the field,
no certainly could not carry it with him.

"pauper Labor, or Sow YorIE.

One peculiarly deplorable effect of the
violation of the contract labor laws is the.
introduction of Russians and Poles, who
work for 81 week, in place of American
girls, who are employed 6tsS5 week, In
the business Of SHRINKING. These men
como by contract in the most direct viola
ton of the law, and, not content with
taking the bread out of the mouths of
worl1men of their own sex who might Seek
other employment, they drive TO starva-
tion women who cannot find livelihood
in the coarseT outdoor employmentS.
It is a most happy result of the efforts
of the Democratic administration to en-
force the contract labor laws and to amend
them so as to make them more effective
than the mere disclosure OF facts by the.
Ford committee has shut off tho tide of
contract labor immigration. The flood
gates will never again be opened while the
Democracy continues in federal power. To
President Cleveland. Secretary Bayard
and the customs officers at this port, who
have called attention to the existence of
the gigantic evil SO as to cause an efficient
investigation. the thanks OF American
labor are due.
During the inquiry the treasury officials
have been very active In collecting tho
testimony that has been elicifad, and the
result is an Illustration of the happy ef-.
feet of sincere cooperation between the
executive and legislative branches of the
general government. Had the matter
been In charge of a COMMITTEES of fba RS
publican senate Its attention would have
been given TO making campaign points
against the administration instead of SIIr-
nishing to the country disclosures of the
ways In which the great fraud on Amefi5
can labor has been perpetrated--New
