puffs up from the engine room, can hardly
help wondering how men exist In such a
hole for days at a time. 1t is related that

than q saloon passenger could bear for
even a few minutes, and aver a Storage
passenger would have felt some slight
Inconvenience from 1t. Yet the officers
of that ship would not allow it said that
the hremen and engineers were Ill treated
by being compelled to remain in a place
only fit for the habitation of a salamander.
Suppose it was hot, what could be done
about it'll AS ships are at present con-

Surely this state of things should be n
sufficient argument in favor of EMPLOYING
petroleum as fuel. 1t might AXE some
months of experimenting before appli.
ances could be perfected for utilizing oil,
but there is no doubt that such an appli.
ance would ultimately be rendered prac-
ticable, and that when once applied TO the
purpose, oil fuel would be found more
effective. more portable, quite as econom-
ical, and certainly more humane than
coal. In the matter of furnishing the
motive power to steamers human progress

LEAVES,

The story of love is incomplete;
The leaves of childhood and of youth are mics
ing;
Yet "better late than never" twas TO meet;
Our lips, at least, are not too old Cor kissing.
What rapture to have loved as boy and grill
How sweet to have been playfellows together;
Over one fairy tale our heads to curl,
Inseparable birdlings of a feather!
To mate in the first freshness of our youth
Was happiness life to us never granted;
Lonely apart we pinned, each seeking truth!
Together, we had found loves land enchanted.
The past is flown, the future still have we;
SO let our twin souls blend beyond the ages
Till, young and fair, beside the Jasper Sea,
We may discover all loves torp out pages.

Biting the Finger Malls.

The wife of a well known iron operator
in Pennsylvania is beautiful, witty and
accomplished, but she bites her finger
nails. She says she cannot help it. She
acquired the habit in childhood, and has
tried every to break it up, but
without success. At times she has sue
ceeded in resisting the inclination until
all her finger nails are triumphantly
long, but invariably they disappear as If
by magic the first time she is disturbed,
annoyed or rendered nervous. She does
not know when she bites them. She
suddenly finds them all gone. Her doc
tors tell her the habit is incurable except
for very strong willed phlegmatic per-
cons.

We offer no apology for devoting so much time
and attention TO this much neglected class of
diseases, believing that no condition of human
1ty is too wretched to merit the sympathy and
best services of the profession to which we be-
long, as many are innocent sufferers, and that
the physician who devotes himself
to relieving the afflicted and saving
them from worse than death, is 10 less a
than the surgeon or physician who by close ap-
plication eXcels IN any other b anch of his pro-
fessiOn. And, fortunately for humanity the day
i~s-daHning when the false philanthrophy tina
condemned the victims of folly or crime, like
the lepers under the Jewish law, TO die uncared
for, has passed away.

THE SEWERAGE QUESTION.

1t has been suggested by some of the
leading citizens of the ACCESSIBILITY OF
prompt action on the part of the city coun-
Gil in reference to the sewerage of the city.
That some action should be taken before
long is questioned by no one who has any
regard for the health and progress of
Wichita The past health of our city has
been a matter of congratulation and no
better advertisement could go abroad than
that our city is free from all plaques and
complaints prevalent in large city. As
the cost for the construction of any inn
proved and efficient system of sewerage
will involve a great outlay of money on
the part of the city it has been suggested
that it would be well for commit tee of
the council to inspect the various systems
proposed for introduction here, and now in
use in other cities. The question of sew
era9e is a momentiouS one. That some
improved system should if possible be con-
structed this spring or summer is the eX
pressed opinion of large number of the
citizens. and as the winter is drawing to a
close it would be well for the city council
to take the above suggestions under con-
sideration. 1t has also been suggested that
it would be well if member the board of
health and committee OF the board of
trade in conjunction with the members
appointed from the city council, constitute
such a committee Of inspection and eX-
animation

THE DOLD PACKING ESTABLISHMENT.

Mr.. e. l.. Hubbell, a representative of
the house of Jacob Dold & Sons, Kansas
City, reached this city yesterday and will
remain two or three days looking after
some local interests of the Messrs. Dold
before proceeding on his trip into Texas on
a general business tour in the interest of
the firm he represents. During brief call
at the EAGLE Office yesterday we learned
from Mr. Hubbell that Mr.. George Dold
will open an office in this city in short
time, and just as soon as it is possible to
do so active operations will be begun on
their packing house plant. Mr.. Hubbell
also reiterates what has heretofore been
said in these columns as to the character
and finish of the Dold packing establish
ment. to-wit: That for completeness in
appointments, design OF architecture
and elegance of finish there is nothing on
the continent comparable to what this will
be- Mr.. H. is very enthusiastic over the
outlook for Wichita, and particularly SO
for the success of the Dold enterprise,
which, he says means great deal more
than any one here suspects for this city
and Southern Kansas. Mr.. Hubbell is
confident that if no i'll fortune betides them
in their work the Dold packing establish
ment in Wichita will be in full and sue
cessful operation 10y June.
