were twice recalled.
The concert opened with "Recollections
of War" we'll rendered by K. of p band,
followed by Vacant Chair" and ''Sol-
dier's Farewell" by the excellent Lotus
Quartette.
The solo, "Tramp, tramp, tramp" by
Mr.. viii Bracken was one Of the most
enjoyable numbers of the program
This popular young soloist likewise
scored a decided success IN Il Fear No
Foe His rich, deep bass voice, it seemed,
was never heard to better advantage, and
the audience showed their appreciation of
his decided ability by a most generous ap-
plause.
"Tenting Tonight on the Old Camp
Ground by Misses Hamblin and Hobbs
and Messrs. Cushman and Bracken, was
another number that was accorded quite a
reception.
Mrs. Bells delightful solo "Dixie" was
encored. and "Old Shady was beautifully
rendered by Mr.. Win Collins and the
Lotus quaTtette
The boys showed what wonderful pro-
ficiency they had made made in the dis
cipline OF the soldier by their silent
drill This was participated in by
Lieutenant Runon, sergeants Hofmaster,
Garst, L.add aud c. W. Carey, Corporal
Lyle, and privates Green. Scott, Wood
man, Carey and Baldwin. 1t was, indeed,
a fine exhibition and a repetition was de-
manded and given.
''The Battle Cry of Freedom" solo, by
Mr.. Hull, and railying song 10y the chorus,

Folks at Home" scored a decided success
and was accorded the same generous re-
ception with which she is always greeted
By VI ichita audience Messrs- Beal and
Baldwin accompanied her upon the guitar.
Marching through Georgia" by Mr.
Cushman and the chorus was q soul in
spring melody that seemed to appeal with
considerable force and feeling 20 the old
soldiers present. Too much credit can no;
be given to the chorus for the part which
they took IN the entertainment, nor TO Mr..

them.
The entertainment closed with "Amer-
lea, IN the singing Of which the audience
heartily joined with the performers.

Yesterday forenoon quite a fight oc-
CURED between some laborers at the Dold
packing house. Some colored men, re-
Gently arrived from Kansas City, were I'M
loading brick from a car and it Is said,
imposed upon an old German laborer, who
was similarly engaged The old fellow
stood it for some time, and at last, when
one of the colored men endeavored to push
him off the car, he threw brick at his
tormentor. The brick hit the colored man
on the head and broke in two, but did not
in the least injure him. The colored man
then struck the old German, cutting two
large gashes upon his head. The old fell
low fell to the ground and would have
been pretty severely handled by his assail-
ant had not some of the white laborers
rushed to his rescue. a free-for-all fight
thea ensued for few moments, but was
soon stopped by the interference of the
bosses. There were several badly bruised
and cut faces and heads in the party. The
old German came down to the police court
and had warrant sworn out for the arrest
of his colOred assailant, but the latter had
not been found last night.

LOOK OUT FOR WIRES.

1t is said by some who claim to know
that many of the floats for to-day cannot

to be hung at a distance not more than
fourteen feet.
