In court young Ketchnm, Il limb Of
the law, trying to break down female
witness evidence one day said
Gentlemen, the witness on the stand

She CURLY replied

YES said Mr.. Blaine, land there's
good reason for it. The Irish people
have such Internal torments at home
that they cant be blamed for wanting
to avoid any in the next world. If
they could believe there was no hell,
they'd rather die than live. Once, at
Dublin, toward the end of the opera,
Sarah was conducting Faust through
the trap doc" which represented tie
gates Of Hades. His majesty got
through all right--he was used to &C.
ing below-but Faust, who was quite
stout, got only about half way in, and
no squeezing could get him any further.
Suddenly an freshman in the gallery
exclaimed, devoutly: "Thank God,

The Nucleus Of True Manhood.

First BE true-be genuine. No
education is worth anything that does
not include this. A man had better not
know how to read-he had better not
learn letter of the alphabet, and be
true and genuine in intention and in
action, rather than being learned in all
sciences and in all languages, to be at
the same time false in heart and coun-
terfeit in life.
Second-Be pure in thought, language
pure in mind and body. An impure
man, young or old, poisoning the socl-
ETY. where he moves with smutty stories
and impure examples, is a moral ulcer,
Il plague.spot, leper who ought to be
treated as were the lepers of old.
Third-Be unselIish,-To care for
the feelings and comforts of others. 10
be polite. 70 be just in all dealings
with others. To be generous, noble and
manly.
Fourth-Be self reliant and self
helpful even from early childhood. To
be industrious always, and selfsupport
ing in the earliest proper age, Teach
them that all honest work is honorable,
and that idle, useless life OF dependence
on others is dlsgraceful.
When a boy has learned these four
things, when lie has made these ideas a
part of his bcing-howevrr young he
may be, however poor, or however rich
he has learned some Of the most i'm
portant things he ought to know when
he becomes a man.

Woman.

Truly it has been SAID woman in her
sphere is an angel, out of it fiend in
carnate. Woman, so long as she is pure
and holy, is one Of the fairest OF Gods
creation, and vice versa.
What in this life is nobler than q
pure and holy woman?
Her price is above rubes. How like
a ministering angel she is when in hours
of trial and need she soothes your pain
or drives away your sorrow
Constant till death she blindly clings
to the man she loves, willing to deny
herself any pleasure to crafty his
slightest whim, yet how little is she
appreciated by him!
There is time IN the course Of most
mems lives when they bow before her
shrine, and should not she and the fates
be propitious, he will swear that the
whole sex are false, yet what would he
be without her.
Woman's refining influence is needed
upon mans rudar nature. She has it
IN her power to mould, in a great meas
IRE, the characters Of the men with
whom she has daily intercourse, and if
she attempts to do so she is responsible
for many triumphs and failures.
Mothers, sisters, wives, sweetlearts
you have it in your power to help those
with whom you associate to a good and
true life.
1t has been unwisely said that wo-
man can make what she will of a man
but the fallacy of that idea has been
proven over and over again to those
who have the sense to see the failure O
excellent wives, mothers and sisters to
influenza in the slightest degree mer
"who lev darkness rather than light
But every seed sown may, perhaps
bring forth fruit, therefore think we'll
before you speak or act for YOU know
not how single action may result. BE
careful that you cause not your weak
brother to offend, for morally he is the
weaker vessel.

The SIN believes that the campaign for

should begin on or about the fourth of next
March. The Sun will be on hand at the be-
ginning and until the end of the most inter

the war, doing its honest utmost, us ever, to
secure the triumph of the Democratic party
and the permanent supremacy of the prncl-
pies held by Jefferson, Jackson, and 1i.den
The great fact of the year is the return to
absolute power of the common enemy of all
good Dcmocrats-thc political organization
for whose overthrow the Sun fought tor tif'
teen years, the memorable years of Grant
and the Fraud Hayes, and Garfield and Ar
thur.
1t is the same old enemy that Democrats
now confront, and lie will be intrenched in
the same strong position, 1t has been carrl'

MARKET STREET ANDI ITS CONDITION,

Market street now from English to Elm,
distance of eight or ten blocks is down
in as phaltum with surface that is
smooth as glass verging on either side
into substantial cutters with fine curbing
But in regarding the street the electric
railway was left high and dry, so much so
that its operation on that street was aban-
doned until it could be relald and paved.
In the meantime it is impossible to cross
from one side of the street to the other
This causes the business men to suffer
greatly. a delegation of these men on
that street waited upon us last evening
with reference to the matter. They are
very much perplexed and worried because
of effect on their trade which they repre-
sent as very unsatisfactory since the street
began to be torn up. Later we learned
that the railroad company are expecting
every day for the work TO begin on the re-
placement of the track, that they had
been disappointed in material and that
through no fault OF theirs was the road in
present condition. However, there is no
question that the trade on Market is suf-
fering and that the track should be replac-
ed Immediately even if it be but in . tenn
pory manner with gravel or what not.

THE BURGLAR TOOLS.

The kit of burglar tools found on Thurs
day night by Mr.. N. Hibarger four miles
northeast of the city, was delivered to the
sheriff yesterday by one of the coIored men
who took charge of it for the night The
sheriff says the set is complete one for
certain kinds of work, and believes it be-
longs to the gang who have been breaking
into stores promiscuously of late through
the country. The nature of the burglaries
reported is the kind practiced by this class
of thieves 1t is generally conceded that
Wichita had narrow escape from some
bold attempts at HOUSEKEEPING at least.
The officers went out to the scene of the
camp fire the same night, but no other
tools could be found, or did anyone mate
rialize' There were evidences, however,
that the two men had returned, probably
for the purpose of securing their other be-
longings that would naturally be hid in
the vicinity, and giving warning to their
pals, all the gang hastily took leave for
parts unknown. Some Of the officers are
inclined to believe that the gang was very
thoroughly organized and had tools and
experience to perform almost any kind OF
a Job. This little scare will keep them
away from this vicinity until the affair is
forgotten, when they will return for their
revenge.

THE NEW SANTA FEE DEPOT.
A Model Structure. That n Beth . Credit to the
Company and the City-The stone Used
for Construction Kan
sas Product.

The new Santa Fe depot, located on
Douglas and Fifth avenues, will be COM
pleted by January /. and it will in every
particular be a magnificent structure in
the wsy of modern architecture and con-
venience. 1t will embrace the gothic style
of architecture, with tower fifty feet high
from the base. The stone used in the con-
struction of this building is Cambridge
grey lime stone, trimmed with Las Vegas
variegated brown stone. This Cambridge
lime stone is Kansas product, and
the quaries are owned by the con-
tractor, Mr.. II. Hetterman, and located
only fifty miles from Wichita. on the
Southern Kansas railway. The stone is IN
every particular well suited to building
purposes and Mr.. Hetterman says the sup
ply is inexhaustible. The interior OF the
building will be composed of ladies' and
gents waiting room, toilet rooms. bag
gage rooms and ticket Office. 1t will be
heated by the new water process, which Is
less expensive than steam heating and
equally as good. The building will have a
