RELIGIOUS AND EDUCATIONAL

The blessings Of fortune are the
lowest; the next are tho bodily advant-
ages Of strength and health; but the
superlative blessings, In fine, are those
Of the mind.-L'Raranye.
The remark of Prof. Drummond,
who lately visited 30 many Of the col
leges Of America, that their general
atmosphere is Christian; they are re-
ligious institutions" has much Of truth
In It. Il Is, however, good deal
more true Of some than 1t il Of others
Anger Is an expression Of personal
sel6shness in one thing, and anger rs q
strong displeasure with evil, with mean
ness, baseness, irreverence, cowardice,
cruelty and stupid indifference to suffer-
ing quite another and a different thing.
Anger Of the latter sort is Christian
virtue.
Great rs have been the discoveries
md achievements Of science in the last
hundred years, It Is doubtless true that
the sum Of the unknown Is yet vastly
in excess Of that Of the known, and al.
ways will be. Each achievement or dis
covery is but stepping-stone to some
thing greater and higher.
Imitation OF Christ on earth, and
perfect likeness to his moral character
herafter-the one to be sought while
here, and the other to be attained in
Heaven-constitutes the idea OF true
Christian. He will at last morally be like
the Lord whom he loves, and In whom
no believes.
"A life OF virtue Is life Of health.
Self-denial leads to a acknowledgment
on higher planes. Patient battling
against lower lusts ends in assured vic,

life worth living, and that man Is he
who resolves on nothing less than per-
lection Of body. mind and soul.
The Christian religion Is the moral
force to hold In check the greater
enemies Of righteousness In all their
manifold forms and manifestations.
What would the human family be II this
moral force were obliterated7 As we'll
might We do without the sun as to hope
for spiritual light without the sanctify-

"A man who II not strictly upright
In life can not be truly pious in heart.

wOMEN'S QUARREL.

The people in the Richland block, East
Douglas avenue, were yesterday about 10
o'clock startled by the report of pistol
shot. Those who ran into tile hallway saw
several angry women and id the hand of
one of them a smoking revolver. X col
Ored woman had succeeded in mourning
the hatred of one of her white neighbors;
the two had quarreled several times, it
was stated, and when they met yesterday
noon in the hallway the racket was re
newed. The white woman drew a revolt
yer on the colored woman, apparently to
brighten her; but it was a self-cocker and
the firearm went of, the ball entering the
wall only few inches from the latter's
head. The colored woman, whose name
is Mrs. Stewart, came into the county
attorneys office to have warrant sworn
out for the arrest of the white woman; but
the papers had not yet been issued last
night.

ON THE WEST SIDE,

Last evening about S o'clock the fire
alarm was turned in from the corner of
Sycamore and Chicago, West Side. The
department answered promptly, both Nos
and starting for the fire. But before
their arrival the West Side company were
upon the ground and had the blaze ex-
tinguished. The fire proved to have been
started from some cause unknown in the
rear of the old barn corner of Sycamore
and Chicago.
Great credit was given the West Side
company for their prompt and efficient
work; for had the flames gotten much OF a
start they could hardly have been eNtin-
guished until the whole row had been
swept away.
In going to the fire the snap of the right
line of the harness of the chemical engine
team broke just as they were coming out
of the hose house AT First street the
horses wheeled TO the left and for a time
it seemed that they were beyond the con-
troll Of the driver. AL Brownell: but at
last they were stopped and no damage
done

A LIVELY CHASE.

Last evening Officer Wibking captured
two young men who had stolen some cast
ing on East Douglas avenue On the way
to the cooler he stopped at the restaurant
No. 626 East Douglas. and for the time
being released his hold upon one of the
thieves. The young man Immediately
took advantage of this !leniency and ran
through the building and across lots
towards First street. The officer called to
his assistance George Medworth, who
started in pursuit of the fugitive and
overlook him in an alley between First
and Second streets, just west of the Santa
Fe track. He made play to brighten
Medworth, but the latter could not be
scared, and soon had the young man in
custody. The two were then brought
down TO the station and were locked up
They gave their names as Z. Polly and A.
Wanson, and have quite an unenviable
reputation in police circles.

POLICE COURT.
SIGNAL SERVICE,

Corporal Fred johnson of the Signal
Service department was figuring with
Messrs. Rouse and Blackwelder yester-
day for Signal service Equarters
1t will be remembered that several months
ago the EAGLE called attention to the fact
that the service for Kansas would be very
much improved by having station here
and also suggested that the fifth story of
the Sedgwick would be very suitable
quarters. The board of trade took the
matter in hand and through Representa-
tive Peters and Senator Plumb, station
was located here In response to this Mr.
johnson is in the city looking after a
location.
The proposition as submitted by Messrs.
Rouse & Blackwelder, coupled with the
elevation and surroundings would seem
to indicate that the station will be located
there. 1t was wired to headquarters and
answer will probably be received today
When location is determined upon it will
take but "a few days to get everything in
readiness for weather reports of merit, or
at least more merit than the reports here
tofore ruling the flags.

THE YOUNG VISITORS:


The following concerning Mr.. John Car
penter and his brigade OF young folks who
visited Wichita, is taken from the Valley
Center News:
Last Tuesday, the long looked for day by
the little folks of Valley Center, dawned
bright and early and most thoroughly was
it enjoyed, too. Some weeks ago, while
Mr.. Noble was lecturing in this place ON
temperance one night, the people had a
regular old-fashioned revival in the way OF
signing the pledge, not only against the
use of intoXicants, but also against the
use of tobacco and one hundred or more
signed the pledge that night. Uncle John
carpenter was so Jubllant that he got
up right there and promised all the
little folks an excursion at his
expense over the motor line, some time in
the future, and last Tuesday at noon they
gathered at Carpenter & Dewing's hall
over one hundred of them, Uncle Johns
family and marched up Third street TO
avenue G, thence Soutq to the motor line
station where a train was in waiting. In
Gle John, j. f. Weaver and Mrs. Weaver
were the guardians of this band of future
greatness and right robly did their parts.
The motor pulled out promptly at
1920 and within one hour Uncle John,
by the aid of his band, had captured
the capital of sedgwick county
After leaving the motor at First street
they marched down First To Main, where
they gave the people song. thence east
to Market. thence south to Fritz Snitzler's
building where they made the weikin ring
with choice temperance selection for the
especial benefit of Fritz; thence south to
Douglas avenue, then west to Water street
where they took the motor for home and
within the next hour they reached Valley
Center and voted Uncle John the best man
in Sedgwick county. There was only one
thing TO mar the happiness of the entire
excursion for Uncle John and there were,
he thought, number left behind whom
he thinks should have been on hand.
