All this had been contributed in
such abundance that one OF the ladie,
deemed it necessary to apologetically
explain to TINES reporter that the
committee had, Of course, felt called
upon to solicit At every dwelling in

but the contributions were 20 abund-
aatly liberal that she feared that the

could not possibly consume half of
what was sent! But the donors
might rest assured nothing would be
wasted, and At the close OF the enter.
tainment all tina. was left would be
auctioned of to the highest bidder.
Well, there WAS nothing left. In
fact. everything gave out early in the
evening. Tho pork and beans were
al gone by 8 o'clock, tho sandwiches
an hour later, the ice cream was out
by 8 o'clock, and the lemonade by

prepare, an additional supply was got,
but even this did not hold out over
an hour, when, everything being con.
sumed, the ladies' concluded to close

down that they would come in body
soon. Several other parties of two
to six came in-only to be disappoint-
ed. Some of the ladies of the Corps
almost wept when they realized that
they would lose fully $50 through the
exhaustion OF supplies.
This they regret exceedingly, but
they console themselves with the re-
Election that, after all, they are the
heaviest losers by This, as they would
otherwise have realized over 5000.

This is certainly the handsomes'
result ever obtained in HALEY in suci
short time; and, these hard times
it proves most effectively and posi-.
lively that the love of country is still
rs strong as it ever was in the breast
of all worthy Of living in this fore
most country in the world, and of en-
joying its manifold blessings.
The ladies Of the Relief Corps
grateful for tho substantial encour
agemcnt extended them in their ef
forts to contribute to the allevistion o
the sufferings Of the old soldiers whit
are too helpless to do much for them

A DISASTROUS RUNAWAY.

Last evening Miss Mile Sappenfeld
was thrown from buggy at the corner of
Third and Water, and it is feared, quite
badly injured. She was driving rather
rapidly from her uncle, Mr.. George Col
ling's, residence on West Central, to sum-
mon physician to the bedside OF her
aged grandmother, Mrs. Moore. The
horse became frightened at a piece Of tin
on Water street, and started to run. AT
the corner Of Third, when beyond her con-
troll. the animal wheeled quickly around
the corner, upset the buggy and threw
Miss Sappenfeld violently TO the street.
She was assisted by Mr.. Sheppard into
DR.. Cox's residence, and afterwards re-
moved TO her home The extent of her in
iuries were not definitely known last
night, but hopes are entertained by her
many friends that they are not as serious
as at first reported, and that she will soon
be entirely recovered from their effects.

THE MISSOURI PACIFIC AND WICHITA.

The papers of some towns are taking
ON oyer the fact of a visit from Mr.. Jay
Gould One paper telegraphed the Associ-
ated Press agent that the great railroad
man thought its town one of the finest on
the continent. Another, in double loaded
interview, gives Mr.. Gould's impressions
that its town simply leads all others III the
state. While that gentleman spent four
and half very busy hours in Wichita one
day last week, in consultation with lead
ing men, the matter was neither tele-
graphed or blowed about. There is one
thing the papers referred to should not
forget, and that is that Mr.. Gould said
three years ago that Wichita in his judg-
ment was going to be the greatest city be-
tween the Missouri and the Pacific, and
that he would put the general offices and
Headquarters of all of his Kansas lines at
Wichita The headquarters were promptly
put here and have been kept here. Eight
hundred and twenty-th1ee miles OF the
Missouri Pacific system. including the d.,
NJ. g. A., are under the supervision
of Superintendent Russell Harding-whose
headquarters and offices are in the city
and his score of division superintendent
and other assistants; and the freight and
passenger traffic of these lines are upder
Col. Fisher and his assistants whose
offices are here also. AS for what the
Missouri Pacific is going to do in the near
future touching Wichita and the new
Memphis outlet and the Colorado extern
sion the EAGLE by violating little conf
dence could make some of these blowers
very sick. However, besides the terminal
facilities originally acquired at this point,
and the grounds subsequently acquired on
the West Side, last summer the Missouri
Pacific paid twenty-three thousand dol
lars cash for an eligible piece of real
estate in this city, which piece, we assure
our sanguine outside friends wasn't
bought for mere fun nor yet as a specula-
ton.

AN OLD CHESTNUT.

Some time ago, W. r. Cornelison was
introduced to some lots about three miles
northwest and made a purchase. After
giving them some attention in the way of
improvements he found ovt that they were
not the ones he had really bought, but his
property was in swamp about six miles
northwest. On making the fact known he
heard that some other parties had been
taken in the same way. One was a widow
lady out in the country who desiring TO
move to town had traded her farm for six
of the duck lots. as stipulated in she deed,
paying 800 per lot. The game is an old
timer, and it could scarcely be believed
that any one would have the cheek to
spring such chestnut and equally sur
.prising that any one should be taken in.
1t is promised that the count viii be,intro-
duced to the facts.

GARFIELD UNIVERSITY:
Closing Entertainment Stella Crinita Literary
Society.

Last evening the society hall at Garfield
University was filled, the entertainment
being the closing exercises of the Stella
Crinita society, the young ladies of the
Garfield University, and it is needless to
say that those present were entertained in
the full sense of the word. The program
began with selection by the university
orchestra, followed with the Invocation by
Rev. A J. Thomson, of Manhattan, Kan.
after which Miss Nellie Mcpherson sang
the beautiful solo Birds from DER the
sea-" in such pleasing manner as to be
heartily encored.. Following her Miss
Anna Rich makes s'Shams" the subject
for well written and excellentiy read
essay in which she says we have many
kinds of shams such as educational politi-
cal, business, social and religious,
and we should be very careful
in the way we live that life
may not be considered sham. The presi-
dent of the society, Miss Vesta Hobbs, de-
CLAIMED "An Idyll to married life" which
SO pleased the audience that they encored
her loudly.
Following her Miss Alma Miller render
ed a beautiful piano solo, and was also en-
cored. Miss Mable Atwater took for the
subject of her address, "A. D. 1885," and
says it is grand thing to live in the 10Th
century. We enjoy such inventions as
steam power. the telegraph &c, but the
next century will see ever greater changes;
ships will be sailing through the air, and
last, but not least, woman will have a
voice-coming events cast their shadows
before.
Robert of Sicily, the subject of a decla-
nation by Miss Bessie Grady, was well
spoke n, followed by song ''Margarita, u
by Miss May Belle Boggs. The essay,
Theory and Practice, by Miss Flora Nc
Murren, was exceptionally good. She says,
Theory without practice is like the Wis
ions of a delicious dinner to hungry
tramp practice without theory is
simply machine. combine the two and
make life one grand sweet song.
The waltz duet by Misses Vergaline
Lucy and Vesta Hobbs was not so well
rendered as it would have been had they
not lost the music. The society paper
read by Miss Ella Laughlin was filed with
many interesting facts together with
humorous paragraphs at the expense OF
several of the students. Following those
came the fan drill composed by twelve
members of the society, six of which were
dressed in blue and six in pink; the
captain, Miss Puma kirkbride, wearing
a combination of both colors. The drill
consisted of many pretty manipulations OF
the fan, and was SO appropriate TO the
evening that the young ladies were encored
and compelled TO repeat it, after which
the president, Miss Vesta Hobbs, thanked
the audience for their kind attendance
and welcomed them to the coming exer
ciseS during the week
