The Chicago papers are rivaling each
other in their lively descriptions of the
Wichita Wild West Show. The Times
gives nearly a column and the Inter-Ocean
a half column on the same morning. Both
papers declare there is no other show like
ii on earth or likely to be. Five thousand
spectators witnessed one performance,
four Thousand FIVE hundred from house
tops, treetops and fencetops, the other five
hundred from paid seats.

FRIGHTFUL RUNAWAY.
FEARS THAT THE DRIVER WAS
KILLED,
A Horse and Gig go Over the Chisholm
Creek Bridge at Douglas Avenue;
and Driver Could not be
Found

Shortly after II o'clock last night a tele-
phone message reached the police station
stating that a serious runaway had just
happened in the vicinity of the Chisholm
creek bridge at Douglass avenue, and 1t
was thought some one had been killed.
The city marshal and couple of the force
fastened to the scene and found a number
at the bridge
The hand railing on the southeast corner
had been struck in the end by wheel and
the post and rail knocked down.
On the opposite side Of the
creek about $50 feet below the bridge a
horse aad two wheeled rig were found.
The horse was on the bank near the water
with harness partly torn of and rig at
tached and up side down in the water.
The horse was covered with sand, and no
one doubted that the corner of the bridge
had been struck with one wheel of the rig
and the horse had plunged of the bridge
into the creek The water was very swift
and owing to heavy rains north, was from
six to ten feet deep.
AS the investigation proceeded the
crowd increased, and by mid
night at least fifty people were
present. The most interesting question
was concerning the driver. Mr.. II. NJ.
Pike was about two blocks east of the
bridge on Douglas avenue when the run
away rig passed and said he heard the
driver yelling at his horse and trying to
stop him. The horse was running rapid
Iy to the west and few minutes later he
heard Of the smash up at the bridge No
one could be found in the vicinity of the
bridge and no indications of anything but
the horse and rig.
A street car driver said a short
distance east of the bridge his
mules SHE'D and some suggested the driver
might be found in that vicinity, but a care
full search was rewarded with nothing of
Importance.
In the weeds near the edge of the creek
few feet south Of where the horse went
into the creek it looked like man had
fallen, but nothing seemed to show that
he had went into the creek.
Some of the hackmen stated that the
horse formerly belonged to Scott
Beal and that he was sold to Ira
Tuders, who lives two and half
miles south. The city marshal said he
would look after Tuders this morning and
see if lie could be found.
1t was generally conceded if a man was
on the gig when it struck the bridge the
chances were that he was in the creek.
About l o'clock the hunt with lanterns
ceased and will be resumed this morning.

HON. GEORGE l.. DOUGLASS A GREAT
CREDIT.
From, the Fort Scott Monitor

Hon. John w. Douglass, father of George
L. Douglass, of Wichita, was recently APP
pointed one of the commissioners Of the
District of Columbia, where ne resides.
Judging the father by the son, the presi-
dent has made a most excellent selection,
George L. Douglass, as chairman of the
Judiciary committee of the last house of
representatives of Kansas. proved himself
to be most capable and expert lawyer
and legislator. AS a representative of
Wichita he did that city great credit and
speech made by Mr.. Douglass that was
equal to any of Marsh Murdock's BOOM
INCEST efforts, and the beauty of it was
that Douglass spoke with such seriousness
and force that everybody believed it, al
though we have since learned that he got
his facts from the EAGLE and not one OF
them was true.

VICTORY WON!

We record today the good news that
the omnibus bill has received the ap-
proval of the senate and the house and
now awaits only the presidents signature
to become law. This victory crowns the
good work begun in earnest when Mr..
Springer caused the house to accept his
omnibus bill in lieu of the defective
measure sent from the senate, where par
tisanship was so strong as to deny Mon
tana the blessings of statehood.
Despite the apathy or hostility Of the
senate, Cox, Springer and other progress
sive democrats impelled forward the ON
nibus bill and sent it to the senate in
scribed with the names of five new states.
Stubborn and narrow to the last, the re-
publican majority there rejected the
claims of New Mexico, the only one of
the five territories which gave demo-
cratic majority. This narrowness might
have repealed the democratic leaders, but
with generosity which is unexcelled in
party annals, they accepted the terms and
allowed the majority in the senate to have
pretty much their own way. As the re-
suit, the omnibus bill has been piloted
safely amid the shoals and quicksands Of
Washington legislation. Its success con.
fers immortal honor on its supporters anC
ensures for them the enduring gratitude
of the State of Montana.

THE LEGISLATIVE VISIT.

The Montana Legislature will, very
properly, celebrate Washington's birthday
by accepting Col. Broadwater's invitation
to visit Great Falls. The legislature will
meet in joint session, as it were, as they
speed in the cars through the Prickly
Pear canyon and along the mighty Mis-
souri, to the city where nature has formed
the greatest series of cataracts in the
world, Niagara not excepted. During this
excursion the council and house, which
have been tending apart, may harmonize
and resolve no longer to play havoc with
each others bills. Politics likewise will
be barred. No one is to allude irrever-
emily to the senate tariff bill and Mr.
Cleveland and Judge Edgerton will be
left without comment to fight to finish
the inky conflict in which they are en-
gagged.
Great Falls will, Of course, welcome
heartily the lawmakers who will come
under such agreeable circumstances
They will undoubtedly enjoy the
sight of the mighty cataracts
known as the Rainbow falls. They will
observe with wonder the immense smell
ter which reduces daily tons of ore, and
they will see with establishment, the rapid
progress made at Sand Coulee where skill
and capital have made available the treas
ures which nature stored there thousands
of years ago. In addition to all these
the legislators will observe the city Of
| Great Falls itself with its broad avenues
and streets, its two bridges, its fine school
house and extensive stores. They vii
meet here new settlers and old pioneers
all of whom will do their utmost to rend
er this trip enjoyable for the councilmel
and representatives whose arduous labor
sntitle them to the days recreation.

In Dakota the culture of flax is receiv-
ing attention and much wheat land is
likely to be used for that purpose. The
tlax-growers might derive encouragement
from the fact that over hundred years
ago flax was raised in New Hampshire by
the people from the porth of ireland,
who settled there. In Montana, where
the climate and soil are so varied, it
ought to be possible TO establish both the
flax and the linen industry.
