THE RUSH OF Yesterdays LIFE.

Yesterday was a typical Kansas day
glorious in the brilliancy OF its sunshine
and celebrating in its super-abundant
zone Everybody felt like flying or doing
something gorgeous. The little hen tit
willow was so intent on getting her nest
ready that she scarce noticed the young
unmolted rooster who kept trying to mate
with her. The streets Of Wichita could
not have been rivaled by any city east or
west for life and Respondent colors. Our
siyty-seven miles of street and motor car
lines running in every direction seemed
doing double service, while the principal
business thoroughf fares We're crowded with
the vehicles OF traffic and of pleasure 1t
was a day of feminity and not only all
of the seven thousand of Wichitas bright
mothers and daughters, who did not regis
ter, seemed to be out airing themselves,
hat the beauty and fashion of every town
and city within fifty miles were represented
upon our walks and along the counters of
our numerous magnificent retail establish
ments. In jam and rush, buzz and roar
the day wore away, the tit-wlllow found
her nest TO her taste, the evening trains
bore away the fair shoppers to their homes
and the electric current blazed from the
globes Of hundred avenues and the city
of kansas-great as beauriful-as the hour
Of midnight approaches. finds her pulses
lulling into quiet beneath the light Of a
fulI-orbed moon. the weeks work done

NORTH WICHITA.
How IL Looked Yesterday NJ Burton Car works,
Dold Packing II use and Gilbert Plow
Factory.

Twenty freight cars were being repaired
yesterday at the Burton car works This
is about the first work done at the plant.
A large force of hands are at work on
putting machinery in place and getting
the plant ready for business. Over one
hundred car loads Of material have been
ordered and will be on hand by the time
the plant is ready.
A gentleman who visited the plant yes
terday said that many people not used To
manufacturers using iron BY the hundreds
of tons and employing hundreds of hands,
seemed To think that the whole plant
should be constructed in about the time
il would take TO put upa wind mill and
one half Not being used To that sort of
thing they grew impatient and were
willing 10 believe any ridiculous lie set
set atioat by any Irresponsible parsonage.
No matter how much out of reason 10 was,
many people were just chumps enough To
start off on a stampede. The stampediug,
however, would not hurt anyone except
work on the nerves Of those who will not
think even worthy Of former environ
ments.
Cars of stone were being put in the foun'
dstions for the Dold packing concern yes
terday by hundreds Of men. This pre-
sented a very business-like appearance and
made the average Wichitan smile way
back beyond his ears
The Gilbert pillow factory presented
lively appearance also. The huge engines
were going, men making patterns, and
some unloading material, etc. IL was
lively getting ready for starting up.
The north part of the city was visited
yesterday 10y a number Of people who were
for personal satisfaction looking after
some OF the new enterprises now in course
of construction. One gentleman who had
taken in the drive returned in an almost
shouting spirit. To say that he was extra
ordinarily happy IL putting 10 mildly, aud
To intimate he had been In the neighbor-
hood of n stimulant would do him such an
injustice that IL could be termed vulgar.
He said he found out something new about
the city every time he went driving. The
information gained was always OF the sort
TO make him more confident of a city Of
| hundreds of thousands, and continued
record of prosperity never before known In
the commercial world,

ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND.
Capitalists and Money SyndIcates Here and
and Coming.
NJ. E. LEASE,
Wichita

A bank in this city day before yesterday
received from one man a deposit of one
hundred thousand dollars in New York
drafts. The party making this deposit had
only arrived in the city that morning and
he remarked to the president of the bank
that this city was good enough for
him. He said further that he would be
followed by from ten to twenty more men
who had each as much and more to invest
in the coming city of the west
As he said, it was being con.
coded BY representative and leading men
everywhere east that Wichita of all the
cities of the west bid the fairest for great
future.
Four other gentlemen, representing sim
ply millions of dollars, who stopped over
III Wichita day or two while on the road
to Denver few days since, will return as
soon as spring is fairly opened, and, as
one Of them said, to put more money into
Wichita property than was ever put in by
any single firm or syndicate in the past.
Here is the words he wired to the organi-
zation which he in part represents:
Il have found the town that / believe
has greater immediate future than any
other town in America"

Through the mists of the ages once more
we behold
The stone from the mouth of the sepulchre
rolled.
And the voice of the angel vibrates through
the gloom,
Whom We seek has risen" from death and
the tomb.
Thrice welcome, glad morning of infinite
peace,
Life's burdens fall from us, life's dIscords
all cease;
The lost loves. and lost years, and friend
ships long fed,
And each golden dream and promise shall
rise from the dead.
And our own life, fading to evening dark
and cold,
Shall find eternal morning where years
shall not make old;
And they whom death took from us; why
are we misty-eyed.
Drink deep the joy of Easter, no evil can
betide.
What though time relentless hath given

We wait today triumphant on our sepul-

A COMPLIMENTARY ENDORSEMENT.

While the EAGLE is taking no part for
or against the candidacy of any man for
council or school board, it likes to see good
and valuable endorsements from any quar-
ter of the men who are offering themselves
and services to our people The Macon
City Democrat, of which place Mr.. Glaze
was mayor for several years, comes to us
with the following which, as Democratic
endorsement of Republican, is very free
and open. 1t is certain that Mr.. Glaze
not only comes TO us, therefore, with an
unquestionably fine record and what is
more he did not seek his nomination which
came at the hands of large convention of
representative citizens. The Democrat
says:
We note with pleasure the nomination
of a former citizen of Macon, Capt. Geo. p
Glaze now of Wichita, Kan, as council
man from the largest and weaithiest ward
in the city We are glad indeed that the
splendid ability Of Captain Glaze is being
appreciated by his fellow citizens. Cap
tain Glaze was elected mayor of Macon
three times, the last time without opposi-
ton. He is honest and public spirited in
the highest degree, and at the same time
conservative, doing the business of the
public in the same safe manner he conducts
his own private affairs. Among the dis
tinguisaed features of Mayor Glaze's adj
ministration was, 1st, the purchase of
ground and the creation of a free water
supply for manufacturing purposes. end,
the creation of splendid fire department
including the purchase of a steam fire en-
CINE, etc. Cd, the purchase Of ground and
the erection of city buildings. 4th, macad-
amizing the principal business streets of
the city and many other equally important
public enterprises that did so much to pro-
mote the wealth aud prosperity OF the city.
If the people of Wichita but know the
value to their city that the services of Cap
tain Glaze will be, should he be elected, as
the people of Macon have known them, he
would be elected by large majority, no
matter who his competitors may be.

THAT MOST FOUL DEED.

That was a sad, a sickening tragedy on
Hydraulic avenue and one which should
arouse the entire community in a demand
for swift and condign punishment. The
murderous lead did it's fatal work before
even the victim could make a single cry
for help or for mercy. 1t must have been
past one o'clock, at least it was after mid
night. The excitement was such when
the reporter arrived on the scene that it
was a difficult matter to get the straight
of anything beyond the hrrrible sight of
the bloody corpse of the victim who had
been working on Henry Schweitzer's place
for year or more But little could be OBJ
tanned of the author of the gedy who up
to late hour last night had not even been
arrested. The only excuse seems to be
one of supposed tresspass' There evidently
had been some misunderstanding betw cen
Jack K. Abbit, the victim, and his COM
panion, she having left his side and gone
to the shelter of a hedge on the defend
ants place Jack must have been follow
ing her to coax her back, when without
warning, he was shot down in his tracks
He was as innocent and unoffensive fel-
low as ever lived. This Sunday mornings
sun, the glad first day of spring, will brin z
only shadows to one little home whose
mistress fed away in the dark from the
dead form of her companion and protector
and has not been seen again up TO this
hour. The name of the murderer Is gen.
erally believed to be S Gun
