The Emperor of Germany is said to be
showing symptoms Of insanity, the constitu-
tioaal trouble in his ear having affected his
brain. This story has not the most unim-
peachable foundation, but is not wholly i'm
probable. A crazy emperor with the abso-
Lutte command of two million soldiers welded
into weapon like the German army would
make terrible commotion If he should get
loose in the European storehouse of political
dynamite. If he is crazy he should be we'll
watched. Unfortunately the actions OF
European sovereigns in the last fifty years
have sometimes been so cratic and mad that
it is difficult to tell when ruler is enough
madden than the general average to justify
duress. About the King of Bavaria there
was not much doubt, but Louis Napoleon
passed for sane man. as monarchs went
and yet acted most like mad man.

PIT A STOP TO 1T.

The attention of the superintendent of
the city schools as also that of the teachers
and board of education is called to the fact
that we are in receipt OF complaints touch
ing outrages that must speedily have a
stop put to them. We don't know whether
there is any feeling between the colored
children and white children or not, or that
there is a feeling of rivalry between differ
ent wards, but it is certain that little in
nocent children, physically unable 10 de-
fend themselves, are put upon and bar
bously treated. Great coarse brutes OF
boys maltreat and injure smaller children.
Both negro girls aud boys strike and
bruise little children. One little boy in
the Wichita schools lost his life from such
treatment. An abscess formed OF bruise,
which IN the end cost him his life. \
little boy not six years old-a mere babe
was struck Saturday on the arm with a
stone. leaving his arm in a fearful con
dition. Another child was badly hurt yes
terday. This must be stopped, and il the
superintendent nor teachers are equal to
the task the board ought TO take the mat
ter up before another life is sacrificed.

Tothe Editor ofthe Eagle
The W. C. L. L. are exceedingly practi-
cal In every effort to arrest thought and
educate public sentiment. For more than
three years the have tried to secure Mrs.
Emma Ewing, and last March contracted
for her appearance in our city October II
to give her celebrated lecture on Our
Kitchen interests to be followed by a
course Of lessons.
There are very many to be thus benefit
ted. a thoughtful young mother SAID 10
the writer: Il would gladly give ten dol
lars toward establishing school to train
domestic helpers and then have
each applicant for place IN the
home bring a certificate or diploma :"
That thoughtful woman recognized the
fact, that while tie kitchen interests
should be in competent hands, the woman
to whom has been given the crown or
motherhood should not be compelled 20
Danish the sons and daughters from her
companIonship during their tender years,
to devote her time to culinary affairs.
Another class. is the bright, large-heart-
ed women, VINO, on slender incomes would
still not mind the salary of the average
domestic employe-but when the excess IN
grocery and fuel bills, the waste along so
many lines are taken into consideration.
they simply accept the added burthens or
Kitchen WORK TO lnelr Otner duties. NSuy
young housekeepers find the cost of prepar-
ing some appetizing delicacy in sufficiently
small quantity for the new household such
as to prevent experiments.
On the other hand there are many house
holds where the inmates wishing TO add
somewhat to the slender purse, and still
not desiring to leave the home or TO give
up their whole time to the service or
Others can make the delicious confectlons
that would tempt the palate of an epicure.
The menu of the Cincinnati Woman's ex-
change, as | glance over it, would persuade
hundreds of women who do not keep help
to purchase these homemade commodities
were they offered for sale.
Two years ago in Davenport training
school was established, a wise citizen CIV
ing sufficient funds to pay teacher for the
first three months. IN Kansas City 10
women attended the lesson on bread max
ing. The advertisement concerning the
lessons VIII appear in Wednesdays paper,
and due notice will De given of the lecture,
to which every man, as well as woman, IN
the city is cordially invited.
May Wichita be the first city in the state
to establish the training class. as she Is

The following is taken from the Globe
Democrat of the 9th inst:
About 8 o'clock yesterday morning Of
ficer Warren of the union depot force no.
ticed young woman with an infant IN her
arms CRYING in the ladies' waiting room.
He asked the cause of her grief and in re-
ply she said her uame was Mrs. Louise 10.
gan and that she was scarcely is years OF
age. She was from Wichita, Kan, where,
she said she had been treated badly by her
husband, Samuel Logan, a drummer for
Wichita firm. She said that while she
was living happily with her mother and
earning fair salary by doing shorthand
and type writing work she met Logan, and
the acquaintance soon rlpened into love,
and then marriage. Logan, she said, Iyed
with her for 4 time and then deserted her.
Her mother in the meantime took Ill and
died in few days She explained that
she was in such great distress after the
birth of her child that she wrote to LoSan's
mother at Calais, o., telling her OF her
unfortunate plight. Mrs. Logan, she
said, sent her SIS and asked her to meet
her at Calais. In reply to questions she
said that Logan came back after she had
received the money and pretended 10 be IN
q very penitent mood and promised TO re-
main with her and treat her better in the
future On the strength of this she said
he borrowed the as and then left. A week
later. she added, she received letter from
him dated in Texas, stating that he was
going to California and that she need not
look for him again. The rest of her story
went to show that she was assisted as far
as Springfield, Mo-, by friends, and that
the mayor of that city sent her here. All
she wanted was transportation to her
mother-in-law's home at Calais.
Several gentleman who heard her story
were moved by the touching recital and III
a few minutes collected some s23 to get her
out of her dilemma. A ticket was pur-
chased for her by Officer Warren, and a
nice balance was left Tor her expenses on
the way.

DIR. CoNRAD,s SUNDAY WITH Us.

The promise of an intellectual treat to
the citizens of Wichita was more than full
filled for all who attended the First Pres
byterian church on Sunday, to hear Rev.
T. w. Conrad, d. d.. editor OF the Luth-
eran Observer, of Philadelphia. In the
morning the seating Capacity of the church
was taxed to the utmost, the main audi
forum, the aisles and the gallery being
filled by an attentive and appreciative au-
dience. The subject of the morning dis
course was The Self Evidencing Charac-
ter of the Bible" and was presented with
the forclbleness of argument and clearness
of logic of which the doctor is master. In
the afternoon about 500 men gathered at
the meeting under the auspices of the Y.
NJ. c. a. Mr. Baird, the efficient secretary
of the association, conducted the meeting.
Rev. w. L. Seabrook read the Scripture
lesson from Luke 9th chapter, and DR..
Conrad delivered a powerful and moving
address on deficiencies of Purpose in Be-
81 ming Religious Life"
In the evening the church was again
filled, and the learned doctor spoke of
Heavenly Places in Christ" Although
the morning discourse was nearly an hour
in being delivered, and those of the after
noon and evening were scarcely of less
length, the attention of the audience
was held unwavering to the end. The
speaker may not be an orator, in the ordin-
airy acceptance of the term, but he has that
charm of manner and of delivery of which
an audience does not weary.
After each service many who had heard
the doctor preach twenty, thirty, forty
years ago, crowded around him to renew
their acquaintauceship.
DR.. Conrad is a veteran in church work
having been licensed to preach in May,
1889, and actively engaged in the pulpit
and with the pen since that time. He has
been the editor of the Lutheran Observer,
the chief organ of the church which he rep
resents, for twenty-seven years. In order
to visit Wichita on this occasion he passed
by Kansas City and other points at which
his presence was peremptorily demanded.
On Saturday. in company with N. l..
Carver, Esq. and Rev. Mr.. Seabrook, be
drove over about half Of the city and was
much impressed by the evidence Of per-
manence, and said: You have a great
city, it viii become greater; you have many
people, their number Will increase; your
past has been wonderful, yonr future is
destined to be even more wonderful"
