THE ERE LAST EVENING

clothing store, corner of Lawrence and
Douglas avenues, and informed one of the
clerks, Albert Gross. The alarm was turned
in and Mr. Gross opening the store from the
front, the boys of No. 1 entered and
commencing to play upon the flames with
the chemical soon had them extinguished.
Tho blaze had originated in about the
center of the store room presumably from
a spark from the electric light.
Two hundred coats were lying upon the
table when the fire was first discovered
and these were more or less injured from

MISS JENNESS.

The bringing of Miss Jenness is to create
an arrest of thought on this subject of
such vital Importance, and cause the es-
tablishing of school of physical cul-
ture" such as Miss Lupton has carried on
SUCCESSFULLY in Cincinnati for seven years,
or secure its introduction into our schools.
No city can boast more winsome, sweet
faced girls and young women, but their
lack of animation in gait is simply appall-
ing. The mothers, many OF them. remem-
Der with pleasure the gymnastics of their
school days in the eastern cities, but our
daughters, either transplanted at a ten
der age or western born and bred, have
never been taught how to stand, walk, sit
and move in general. The dance certainly
does not meet the requirements, for many
of its most faithful votaries have no ease,
grace or elegance of manner and carriage.
Miss Jenness will instruct us how to
make the members of the body the har-
monious, willing servants of the mind.
AS our dancing classes are well filled, there
certainly must be twenty-five, the requisite
number for the class, husbands and ia
theirs, wives and mothers and teachers
who will assist in this worthy effort to
gain and secure healthful bodies.

Given by the Sons Of Herman Last Night It the
Eagle Rifle Asmory.

Last night the Wichita Lodge No. 4, O..
d. II. S., gave masque ball at the Eagle
Rifles hall
The event has been looked forward to
with no little interest, and extensive prep
aration had been made by the arrangement
committee. The brilliant success which
attended the affair must have exceeded
their greatest expectation. There were
fully two hundred couples in masks in at
tendance, and besides all the chairs along
the sides of the hall were taken by specta-
tors.
AT 8 o'clock the grand march
commenced and it was strange, motley
crowd that fell into line. Kings and
queens. fools, clowns, jockeys, peasants
Indians, monks, priests, Arabs and other
characters, dressed in the most striking
and grotesque costumes, took up the
march.
The program contained sixteen dances
and two extras, twelve of which were
danced through before the intermission
and unmasking.
The reception committee, composed Of
Otto Zimmerman, DR.. E. A. Whitlock.
John Bittman, Charles Luling, Peter
Getto, William Tusch and S. w.
Hess, and the floor committee,
John F. Knoblauch, WIN. Meyer, Otto
Eckstein, H. Schnitzler, H. Waltemeyer
used their best endeavors to make every
one welcome and enjoy themselves. Their
efforts, being so strongly seconded by all
the other members of the lodge, were most
successful and all the attendante will re-
member the bail as not only the largest
and best ever given by the Sons of Her
man, but also as one of the very best bal

The Sun,nerton Trial.

On Saturday, the 11th of May, the case,
as. Rush Cole Us. Julia Bradford, came up
for a hearing, before Trial Justices Benbow
and Mahoney, in the academy building.
Mr.. Rhame appeared for the plaintiff, and
Mr.. Galluchat for the defendant, the old
colored woman above named, who has oc-
cupied the house over twenty years.
The case excited considerable interest and
attracted quite a crowd. Twentyfour free
holders were summoned to appear as jurors.
But, when the first name was called in the
effort to empanel this jury, Mr. Galluchat
interposed objection to the trial proceed
ing, in consequence of having been brought
under the wrong statute; the case presented
being for 'torcible entry and de-
detainer," when it should have been
for tenant holding over" After q
somewhat prolonged discussion betweea
justices, and counsel for plaintiff the OBJ
lection was sustained and proceedings dis
missed, which finale sent the old woman on
her way rejoicing.
A tragic and bloody memory hangs around
these premises, for in this very house or
ward, Mr.. John William Hodge, gallant
Confederate soldier, was killed by deserters
from the army; they were tracked to this
fatal spot where the deed referred to was
committed.

EoiS from FOreSton.

FoREsToN, May 13.-,Fire! Fire! FIRE! We
were aroused by this cry on last evening
about 10 o'clock. On going out we found
the fire to be in tenement house on the
Oliver lot occupied by the family Of Butler
Fortman. 1t originated from an imperfect
stove aue. Very little furniture, bedding,
Sc, was saved. The whole town quickly
ran to the rescue when the alarm sounded,
but the flames spread so rapidly it was i'm
possible to do anything towards saving the
house, and attention was at once directed
towards the salvation of others endangered.
Fortunately there was but little wind. and
that was favorable, otherwise we might have
had much trouble We all remained on the
spot till the flames were well nigh extin-
puished for want OF fuel, when we retlled,
satisfied that all danger had passed.
Our prize acre is tasseling, and If we
could lave nice refreshing shower of rain,
would soon be ready to invite a corn COM
mittee to visit this section. How does your
Manning man feel now? "Foreston amt

There is considerable complaint among
the country farmers as to stands. The cold,
