SHE DESERTED HER CHILD.

a rather interesting case and one in
which there may yet develop something Of
still more startling Character, came
under the observation Of City Marshal Nc
Namara last evening.
A young girl who had given birth to a
babe a few weeks ago at the St. Francis
hospital ran away from the hospital last
evening, leaving the child behind. Her
absence was discovered by the Sisters and
she was followed 70 the Union depot and
stopped just about the time she was to take
the train for the east.
She then went to a hotel where she met
an old gentleman whom she claimed was
her father When the marshal insisted
upon her returning TO the hospital she
commenced crying and protesting, in
which she was joined by the old man. The
latter in fact refused to allow her to re-
turn, until be caught a glimpse of the
marshal's star and then he be-
came very docile. She was taken back:to
the hospital in hack and VIII remain
there until this morning when the case
will be further disposed OF.
The babe is weakly and it is very
doubtful if it will live until the morn
ing. The mother is very pretty girl of
apparently not over sixteen. Her compan-
ion who has been in the city only few
days is an aged and very respectable look
ing man who seems 20 have plenty Of
money. The latter claims to be the father
of the babe's mother. The parties are go
ing under assumed names here but the
man is known 70 be man Of considerable
wealth and prominence and further facts
regarding him and the girl may yet be
brought TO light

FOR TOPEKA.
MEETING OF ALL REPUBLICANS
SATURDAY NIGHT At
COURT HOUSE
To Make Arrangements to Attend
the State Convention. An
Address by Hon. W. Il. Rob-
inson, OF Illinois.
To to the Republicans of Sedgwick

To to the Republicans of Sedgwick
county.
In view of the fact that on the 25th Of
this month the Republican state conyen-
ton is to be held at Topeka, it is but
proper that the great county of Sedgwick
and city of Wichita be properly repre-
sented in such distinguished gathering
of the leading men of the state.
For this reason, in behalf of the Young
Mems Republican club, the Henry Clay
club, the Harrison and Morton club and
the ingalls, marching club, am requested
to take the liberty OF calling a meeting to
be held at the court house at S
o'clock p. N. Saturday, July 2lst,
for the purpose OF perfectlng
arrangements by which reduced rates
and proper accommodations may b. pro-
vided for the very large number OF Re-
publicans who desire to attend the state
convention at Topeka.
Present indications are that there VIII
be a much larger number, than ever went
from one city TO a state convention held in
another city. Sedgwick county and Wlch-
ita are Republican strongholds and not
only can but will send a tremendous crowd
to Topeka. Such a trip Will be full Of
pleasure and enthusiasm and will neither
cost each person much time or money.
The travelling will be done at night while
it is cool.
1t is rather fortunate circumstance in
connection with such meeting that the
Republicans of Wichita have now in their
midst a distinguished member of their
party from another state. The gentle
man referred to is the Hon, W. H. Rob
inson, Republican candidate for elector at
large in Illinois. Mr.. Robinson is a speak
er OF prominence and an ex-railroad and
warehouse commissioner of his state. The
distinguished gentleman has been invited
and has consented to address the meeting
Saturday night upon the political issues
Of the day. Appropriate music will be
provided. All Republicans OF Sedgwick
county and all who desire to cooperate
with them are cordially requested TO be
present.
We Will also be glad to have any other
Republicans or Republican organizations
in other cities and counties of southwest
ern Kansas e. )nfer with such commit
tees as may arranged for. in regard 20 hav-
ing all go to Topeka together and make
creditable showing for Republican south
ern Kansas
Do not fail to attend and hear the issues
ably discussed. j. W. ADAMS,
President Young Mems Republican club
of Wichita.

The Man Who Don't Understand.

Il is too much TO ask OF narrow headed.
no stomached, thin loined man that be should
get inside men and women who struggle day
in and day out, 36J days in every year, and
awake early on New Years morning with
the same necessity before them and the same
impulse prodding them behind % gain that
for which the Apostle prayed-their daily
bread Give US said that great master II
affairs; give us this day our daily bread :"
Imagine man whose sisters and brotherc,
whose COUSINS and aunts combined him TO
make quintupled millionaire, striving to
understand this heart born petition, this
nervous prayer from weeping eyes, from a
hungry stomach and from a loving heart,
give Us this day not next week. not next
year, not some time when We ara hungry, but
give Us o God, this day our daily bread. -

An Unjust ASSESSOR.

Some one Is writing Us anonymously
from the body of the county, criticizIng
what the EAGLE had to say about Assessor
Green and the reason given by Us for
cutting down Wich!ras returns The
writer declares that it was but trick Of
Wichita 10 get rid OF her proper proportion
of the taxes Ne&t time Minneha writes
us we hope he will be man enough TO send
his name, at least on separate slip. The
truth is that Wichita will pay this year
more than ten-seventeenths of the county
taxes And not only that he growth of
Wichita has reduced the rate Of taxation
in Sedgwick county far below that aid by
the farmers of any county in the state, the
rate coming down steadily for several years
for all purposes. including state, county
and school, from per cent Oh the dollar
TO 2jS last year anG TO 214 this year No
city or county in the state has anywhere
near as low taxes As Sedgwick county and
Wichita. The rule is that other cities and
counties pay about double the rate paid by
this county and city.

4 FORTUNE N ENGLAND.

A great many persons in the city VIII
remem Der the genial George Paxton, the
young operatic singer with prospects. 1t
now appears he is about TO grasp the for
tune which he all along claimed was his.
\ Pekin, Ill, paper Of recent date says
that during Georges absence in the south
New York lawyers in the interest of Eng
lish parties were at that place. and il was
learned that a settlement for life was about
TO be made upon him. a letter received
from Bruce Wallace, Georges inti-
mate friend, by his brother, Superin-
tendent Amesberry, Of the water works,
says that they, George and Bruce, would
sail for England on the 18TH, and a tele-
gram from New York yesterday stated
that they had commenced the ocean jour
ney At last it appears that George is a
real out and out English heir His many
friends here hope that such may prove to
be the fact and that he may live long 70
enjoy his wealth.

FROM BARBER COUNTY.

E.P. Caruthers, editor Of the Barber
county Index. one of the Oldest papers in
this district, came down from Great Bend
yesterday He actually thinks that the
nominee OF his party, c. : Ebey Of this
city, has fighting show for election.
Caruthers says that the Republican ma
jority is but nine thousand, and this, he
thinks, can be overcome.
Another thing that he said was: The
people of Barber are for Judge Martin for
governor, they being personally acquainted
with him. But next 10 him they are for
the distinguished editor OF the EAGLE,
who has at all times been the firm friend
OF Barber county and the people OF the
whole southwest"
Mr Caruthers says that Barber county
will give two hundred majority for Ebey,
but he didn't look ike. ne believed 1t when
be said it.
