mouth of crooked creek, upon the fol-
lowing terms: Ten dollars for each ser
vice; twenty dollars for the season with
no privilege of return, or thirty dollars
to insure. Persons wishing to avail
themselves of the service of this horse
should signify their intention, to breed
at an early date, as he will he limited

The old man had been appointed special

parties. with whom he came in contact,
was the notorious Brock When the
colored man commenced to raise row

his heels, and could not be found until
last evening.

THE SCEERAGISTS.

The ladies of the Equal Suffrage associa-
ton announced meeting at the Market
hall last evening, to be addressed by Rev.
Hogeland, OF the Unitarian church.
The Tilden club had arranged to hold a
meeting at the same time. and accordingly
took possession of the place. and courage
ously if not calamity "held the fort, nmuch
to the chagrin and disappointment, for the
time being, of the ladies. They quietly
withdrew to the Congregational church,
and though they had not time to publicly
announce the change of place, an audience
quite satisfactory in number assembled at
the church.
Mr. HIGHLANDS address was one of his
characteristic. scholarly efforts, and well
sustained his growing popularity as a
lecturer and thinker in the field of advapc-
ed thought.
The gist of his lecture was in the line of
proving that political SUFFRAGE is not only
a right TO be conceded TO woman, but that
its exercise would be her duty to herself
and TO her state. Her superior intellec-
tual and moral status was urged as show
ing her worth and need to the government
and as consequent her duty to vote.
The forcibls and original presentation of
the old and long-worn theme for public
discussion made it seem like a subject just
freshly placed before the people, and was
received with marked attention by his lis
teners. The ladies are arranging TO give
a lawn sociable as the next in their series
of entertainment, and it is hoped that it
will not be attended by any unfavorable
circumstances. such as mared the complete
success of last evenings meeting.

COMMITTEES ESDoRsED.AeA1s.

At meeting of Republicans held at the
court house on Tuesday night was called
to order by Capt Maher. j. E. Henly
was made chairman and P. A Rohrbaugh
secretary After some considerable dis
cussion by the citizens present of the
action of the committee appointed by the
Young Mems Republican club and the
ingalls, club to secure rates to Chicago, the
following resolution was offered by Mr..
Davis and adopted:
Resolved, That the citizens of Wichita
in meeting assembled indorse the action
of the joint committee of the Young
Mems Republican club and ingalls, club
in deciding to go to Chicago over the Rock
Island road.
A represen tatiye of the Missouri Pacific
| then stated that their train would leave
Wichita on Sunday morning, and won Id
carry passengers at so rate with chair
cars. Meeting then adjourned.
As will be seen by Rock Island and Santa
Fe notices this morning they have decided
to give thirty days extension on all tickets
for Chicago 1t also seems to be the
opinion of many that the rate will be re-
duced Whether this is done or not it
would seem that several hundred will
leave for Chicago Sunday morning at the
present inducements-Sl0 round trip and
thirty days extension of tickets
The railroads figuring in the Chicago
business pronaise to do their utmost to
give good facilities for the Wichita people
Special trains will leave Sunday morning
over the Missouri Pacific, Santa Fe and
Rock Island. All will be decorated in an
IL
appropriate manner being credit to the
city and county serving as an advertise
ment of the wide awakeness of the people
of the, city. For the Rock Island Mr..
Kay, the artist for the ingalls, club COM
menced work yesterday on five hundred
yards of muslin which will be tackled to
the side of the cars That road has made
arrangements TO set apart seven cars, four
sleepers and three chair cars for the
Wichita crowd and decorations. Each
viii be appropriately decorated and it
| seems fair TO predict that Mr.. Kay being
an artist of long experience in such
work and a clever hand will have
designs highly suitable for the trip.
He is taking unusual interest in the mat
ter and will put forth his best efforts.
The Santa Fe and Missouri Pacific are
giving the decoration part due considera-
ton and promise to send out train high
ly in keeping with the demands of the
city. They have special artists doing
their work, which is receiving praise
worthy attention.
The roads are figuring ON good time to
| Chicago. none claiming to be en- route
over twenty-five hours. 1t will be a race
of considerable interest, and of course
each crowd will hope to be winners.

HISTORIC GROUNDS.

A. ". Davis and wife and n F. Hart
zell and wife left the city last evening for
Saratoga, Wyoming. Mr.. Davis has a
ranch on the North Platte river which
embraces some historic ground, at least
historic TO squad of soldiers which be-
longed to company B, Ninth Kansas cav
airy. and especially is it a point of interest
to Capt. Henry Brandley, of Chase county,
who had command of the squad, and was
shot through the left arm by a Whit, or
Wind river Ute Indian. This occurred in
the spring of 1862. There are two hot
springs at this point, one in the stream;
the other issues from the bank of the
stream The writer, the B. NJ. of this
paper, was at that time kid, and this the
first battle he had the pleasure of partiei-
pating in. After killing one Indian we
retreated in good order under command of
a sargent, who marshaled the forces after
Captain Brandley had returned to the
fort, without sustaining any further loss.
