A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION.

When a colored brother, on Sunday af-
ternoon, being at the time full of whisky,
boards a street car and proceeds by the use
of vile language, to abuse and boast, the
white man who raps him over the head
should be Immediately arrested by the
metropolitan police and roundly repri-
manded and fined. That seems TO be the
prevailing style and idea of Wichita jus
tice. The EAGLE has an idea of its own,
which is something like this: When COL
ored brother or any other brother, being at
the time beastly drunk on vile whisky,
gets aboard of a street car, on Sunday af-
ternoon, and then and there forthwith pro-
ceeds TO render himself a disagreeable
spectacle and an obnoxious brute, the
brother, be he black or white, who without
formality or apology Immediately puts a
definite and lasting head on the galoot and
kicks him from the presence of women
and children, into the street, is entitled TO
a vote of thanks of the city council and at
least to twenty dollars from the treasury
of the said street railway company, be lie
a tin horn gambler or preacher. ''Them's
our sentiments" There being no condUc-
tors on our street railway lines, ladies and
children are too often subjected to the pro-
family and maudlin mouthings OF the in
dulgers in "red liquor"

GREAT CROP RAINS.

During the past few days Wichita and
vicinity have been visited by excellent
crop rains. The one which fell slowly all
forenoon yesterday was of the most benefi-
cial character to be desired as it was what
is known as ''soaker." From everywhere
throughout southern and western Kansas
come unvarying reports of the grandest
crop prospects ever known in Kansas. a
gentleman who has studied the question
says, "the country between our own state
and the Gulf of Mexico, is ROW more thor
oughly saturated than for the past four or
five wears. The breeZes, which come to US
from the Gulf this year, will not be robbed
of their moisture and negotiating proper
ties, through becoming superheated by the
suns heat, reflected. from the Drowned
buffalo grass sod. Instead. these
breezes will add moisture. rising from
the ground and carrying it northward,
striking the cold air of this section, have
it condensed in the form of rains for Kan
sas. Just as soon as the country south of
Kansas is enough cultivated for the earth
to absorb and retain the moisture, which
falls as rain, the winds which come from
the Gulf, will retain their proper amount
of water to makes rain for this section dur
ing the hottest summer weather and make
Kansas the most certain corn and late fall
crop state in the union.h

A REPORTED ABDUCTION.

Last night another child abduction oc-
Cured in this city, the child taken this
time being the young son of Mr.. Chas.
Spurrier.
Mrs. Spurrier died about year ago in
the west and her remains were brought
here for interment After her death the
child was given to a half sister OF the de-
ceased wife and was taken by her to her
home at Decature, H. The family was
in very good circumstances and it was
their intention to raise the child.
But from some cause the child was
brought back some time afterwards to
Wichita by his father and placed in the
Orphans Home.
The particulars of the abduction as
learnt last night were somewhat meagre;
as the parties in search of the little one
were to great extent themselves IN the
dark A woman whose description was
given came to the home and asked to see
the child. Her request was granted
and last night she took the
little one up in her arms
got into a carriage and were driven away,
it was supposed to depot where train
was taken for the east From the deScrip
ton given it is thought that woman who
took the child was the half sister before
spoken of, and it is, too, thought that she
left with it for her home in Illinois.
An effort is being made to recover the
child The authorities of the cities
through which the woman is likely
to pass have been asked to
stop her, and today Mr.. Spurrier will him
self start for the east in search of the little
hoy

UNITARIAN MEETING.

The second series of the meeting being
held by the First Unitarian church of this
city, took place at their hall in the Skin
ner block last evening. The local pastor,
Rev. n. Hogeland, made the leading adj
dress of the evening on the subject what
We accept and what we reject of the Atone
ment."
He commenced by asserting that the
atonement was very common, If not a
universal revival theme and to be in har-
mony with custom, he proposed to discuss
the subject though from different stand
point.
The atonement is generally understood
as Christian doctrine but the true prin-
ciple, the essence of the doctrine, like all
good religious doctrines, is older than so
called christianity-it started and grew up
with the race and has been a part Of hui
manity.
The doctrine of the atonement has three
phases of development: First, it was
thought two gods existed-a good god and
an evil god and in their strife for human
souls the evil god was victorious and Jesus
was offered as ransome to buy back, as it
were, captured humanity. This idea pre-
Ndllcu dUOuU HNt uuuOTtQ oI up 10
the reformation.
Then under new light came new con-
ception of the atonement which developed
the Commercial Theory" that man in
SHINING created debt to God and that the
suffering and death of Christ wiped out
the debt. After this theory had run
its course arose the now prevalent ''Gov-
ernmental Theory which was not so much
to pay debt as for moral effect-to vindi-
cate Gods law and teach that it must not
be broken with impunity as capital pun
ishment is used in civil gouerment.
What Unitarians accept in the doctrine
of the atonement is indicated in the word
as formerly written, at one-ment, or the
state of being in harmony with God. Jesus,
pre-eminently in His suffering and death,
drew all men to Him and higher appreci-
alton of His GodSke character and into a
more intimate relation to the Divine infu-
ences.
Tomorrow evening Rev. C. S. Rogers, of
Hutchinson, will conduct the services He
is a gentleman of rare powers as a pulpit
orator and will deserve a large audience.
The choir will be assisted by Prof. Dirstine
with his cornet.
