THE COLD WEATHER HYDRANTs.

South Main and Water streets were
without water yesterday and will continue
dry today until this evening. The local
management said yesterday that they
would surely have service ready by this
evening, but it was observed that with
pipe laying there were many slips between
the cup and lip, and possibly that section
of the city may be compelled to go dry over
Sunday.
The iron main being put down is not so
large as that being removed, but owing to
being near the sixteen inch supply pipe it
is figured to be quite large enough to fur
nish the water needed. The old hydrants
are being replaced with Ludlow valve hy-
drants, said to be the best in USE The
water is cut off where the supply main is
attached, about three feet under the
ground, making it impossible for cold
weather to freeze water in the hydrants.
While this provision is considered more
valuable in a cold climate than in south
ern Kansas, yet it is regarded as being well
enough to have it here for an occasional
blizzard.

THOMAS JEWELL DEAD.

Lewis w. Dittman telegraphs US this
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS 13-announcing the
death of Thomas Jewell who: died at 6
o'clock. and that the remains would be eX-
pressed to Wichita for interment. We
suppose the remains will be accompanied
by his wife. Thomas Jewell was one of
Wichita's Oldest citizens He was Cana
dian by birth we believe, but a resident of
Kansas from his youth, coming to Wich-
ita in an early day from Lawrence, Kan,
as brick layer and contractor. He owns
considerable valuab property in this city
yet and during his late visit here said to
us that If his health would permit he
would rather live in Wichita than
any place in the world. His last work
here was the SUPPLEMENTARY of the Zim-
merly building. Jewell was kind-heart-
ed man. No genuine case of distress, no
appeal for charity ever went away from
him unheard. He has many warm friends. n
this city who will hear the not unexpected
news of his death with sorrow, and who
will follow all that remains Of him to the
silent city, which from the hill overlooks
that of the living that marks so many of
the more busy efforts of his life. The Mt.
Olivet Lodge of Knight Templars whom
he accompanied to Washington this sum-
mer will take charge of the funeral cere-
monies, of which later notice will be
giyen

WILL DO SO ANYHOW.

Concerning the stone question for the
city building Architects Proudfoot and
Bird whose plans for the building were
accepted, said that they submitted plans
and specifications for building not to
cost over $4,000 with stone to be selected
from Alma, Augusta, Winfield, Towanda,
Cambridge. and Grous Greek and they did
not prepare the plans with the understand
ing that the Grous Greek stone was to be
used, it, as they claim being the most ex-
pensive and hence would increase The ex-
pense of the building probably causing it
to show total over $4,000. While it was
the highest it was in their judgment no
better than some others AS result it
had been decided by the mayor and archi-
tects to advertise for bids on all kinds of
stone or at least favor bids on all kinds
and let the question come up with figures
to base on. In this connection they also
stated that they would guess the heating
system would cost from five to six thous-
and dollars but had not figured on that
question as yet So far they answered
that there had been little talk about
cutting off the tower to raise the base
ment or do something else with part of
its cost. Should that be decided upon it
would require little work outside another
estimate. The plans as adopted were yes
terdav placed in Ed. Wallis window by
Councilman Glaze.

THE ST. FRANCIS HOSPITAL.
Under New House Management-Five Sisters
Of Mercy from Rome Assumed
Charge Yesterday.

Through the fundamentally of Bishop
Hennesey the sisters that have heretofore
been entrusted with the care of the St.
Francis hospital have been transferred to
the Mater Misercordia, industrial school
and the hospital work has been assigned to
five Sisters of Mercy who have come direct
ly from Rome, Italy, to assume the re-
sponsibility of this particular work. They
are all German born and are sisters Of the
sovereign mother whose mother house is
at Rome. They are Sister Superior Mary
Scholastico, Sister Maria Pho, Sister Maria
Saviour, Sister Maria Sebastiana and Sister
Maria Alfonso. Some of these sisters
have had seventeen years experience in
practical hospital work and beyond doubt
are eminently qualified for the important
duties that devolve upon them. The Sis
ter Superior has had twelve years practical
experience and her marked executive
ability has already shown it
self much to the advantage
of the hospital. From this on
the sick will be cared for entirely by the
sisters who divide the night and day
watches between them. In future no one
will be refused admittance to the hospital
and the only rules in regard to this matter
that the sisters will adopt will be those
absolutely necessary to protect the insti-
tuition against imposition. 1t will be con-
Quoted as heretofore on purely non-sectar-
ian principles and will be in every sense of
the word a charity hospital. There will be
as formerly pay wards in order to ac-
commodate all as it is not to be supposed
that those who are able to pay will wish to
be burden on the charity of the founders
of the institution. The sisters will visit
about the city and solicit such aid as peo-
pie feel disposed to give with once asking.
Donations of every description will be
gratefully received and used to the best
possible advantage.
The sisters of this order are furthermore
at liberty to tend the sick at their homes
provided the sister superior can spare
them from the hospital work. This feat
ure of their work is by no means the least
important or the least appreciated by the
public.
The sister superior is a worker and COM
menced Immediately to clean house and it
is safe to say that everything will be in
apple pie order about that establishment
within week.
Mrsg Georg Sacguemin accompanied the
sisters here from Rome and will return
again this evening. "a

A JAIL IMPROVEMENT.

Mr.. Rausch, the superintendent of the
Pauly Jail Building and Manufacturing
company, will be in the city for few days.
Since he has been away he has superin-
tended the construction Of a $4,000 Jail,
which he thinks is a good one. While
here he will substitute steel roller for
the iron one now in the Sedgwick county
Jail. The iron roller answers all the pur-
poses, but in time becomes worn away by
the friction Of almost constant turning, sc
that the operation of the rotary cells is not
as convenient and easy as should be. He
will also make a thorough investigation OF
the Jail and assure himself that all parts
are wearing as well as he expected.

ST. JOHNS PASTOR.

The wardens of the st. Johns Episcopal
church believe that the Rev. Z. p Chittep.
den will see his way clear to accept the
call of the vestry TO fill the pulpit of that
church. He is expected in the city about
the 18th, when the matter will be perma,
neptly settled. Senior Warden Walker is
in receipt of the following letter, dated at
Salna, Kan:
Dear Brethren-I am in receipt Of let
ter from your senior warden by way OF
Bishop Thomas advising me OF your ac-
ton of the 18th ult, calling me to become
your rector.
Lam sincerely thankful for the honor
conferred and the confidence thus imposed
in me, and cannot do less than to express
my readiness to visit you in the near fu-
ture. at which time matters of mutual ad-
vantage may be together reviewed.

occupy your pulpit at that time l will en-
deavor to regulate my work here accord

COMBINING HOSPITALS.

Councilman Schni z,er, as a member of
a council committee appointed to inquire
into the hospital question, made visit
yesterday to the hospitals of the city. He
seems to think that the same amount of
good can be accomplished by some combi-
nation work and expenses decreased about
$50 per month. He seems to think that
the arrangements of the hospitals will
agree to tbs scheme. AS proposed by him
the Wichita hospital, having the most
room, the city hospital and Open Door
should move to the Wichita hospital and
all work together in their various lines.
How the scheme will work can be told
best. as thought, later on. The other
members of the committee threaten to go
around in few days, when the report will
be made out and presented.

A CASH HAIL.

Mr.. Christian Rippel, who runs meat
market on Douglas near Emporia, yester-
day morning observed that he had been
relieved of his cash on hand in his pocket
when he went to bed, amounting to s4S. so.
He had room in the Jackson block and
looking around no one else or anything
else had been disturbed, it was only cash
that had been taken. This is the third
case of robbery within the last few days
and the amounts nearly the same. While
not very much money, when it is added to
the modification of having been done up
the fellows robbed seem to want to find
out who is getting in the work.

BRICK PAVEMENT on MARKET STREET
TRACK.

The question of the material to be used
in paving the Riverside & Suburban track
on Market street has been under discus
sion by the owners for sometime and they
now have the matter figured down to this.
That if vitrified brick suitable for the pur-
pose can be manufactured in wichita in
time. brick will be used. In order to en-
courage home industries the company will
wait on the home people as long as the
public will stand the delay. At present it
looks as If the brick could be made here in
plenty of time and this phase of the sub
iect will be determined in few days. In
the event of the failure of this project
either brick or stone may be used as may
seem the most profitable
She work will be commenced as soon as
the track is all lined up which Will prob
ably be in the early part of next week.

WHERE ARE HER FRIENDS?

Night before last two ladies arrived at
the Manhattan, registering the names OF
Jennie Williams and Mrs. Frazee. Yes
terday morning Mrs. Frazee came to the
office and asked for both bills, which she
promptly paid, taking her departure i'm
mediately Jennie Williams still remains
at the hotel waiting the arrival OF heI
friends who up to last night failed to put
in an appearance. She refuses to talk and
when pressed for information concerning
herself she simply presented a letter writ
ten in typewriter and stating her name
and destination, which was Wichita, and
that her relative Mr.. Means, would meet
her at the railroad depot The letter was
dated Glenwood, Ia, and signed in type
writer f. NJ Powell. 1t is hoped the
friends of the lady will call for her as soon
as practicable. She is described as slight
figure with pleasing manners and pretty
face. Her utter refusal to talk gave
grounds for the suspicion that she was Of
foreign birth and could not speak the Ian
guage, and up to the present no one has
been found who is linguist enough to con-
verse with the lady. She does not show
any embarrassment, however, and greets
all her callers with a pleasant smile, al
though she fails 20 recognize familiar
speech.
