THE sun DO MOVE.

10 the Eaitor OF the Eagle.
The EAGLE, with it's usual fairness, wa>
pleased to acknowledge the good our re-
cent female convention did in the way of
bringing out evidences of liberality on the
part OF cur local orthodox pulpits. To
allow one who himself is not sound In the
faith, j. e., Universalist, to occupy the
pulpits on Sunday, and in place OF the
regular service. when tine bread of life
should be broken for the perisling, IN or
der to deliver scientific and moral (:l lee
lures, is an indication of advanced iloer-
atty that would not be looked fo- outside
OF such progressive town as Wichita.
The ministers should be profoundly thank
in raking in the shekels from open
mouthed audiences. TO call for ''show
of hands" not of those seeking the prayers
of the righteous, but those who are willing
to contribute % cents to the hat, without
stating the purpose for which the
collection WAS 10 be taken, is surely
an innovation on the old prescribed meth
DDS. How true the saying that 1.-The
children of this world are wiser IN their
generation than the children of light.
We hope the committee in charge of this
B. B. B.-this bright and shining light
from Boston-are able TO account for the
proceeds of these collections Perhaps the
failure on the part of this imported speak
er 10 announce the purpose for viii CHI the
collections were taken. was the innate
modesty y which prevents some men from
voting Tor themselves for Office. The
st atement TO the audience that such col
lections usually averaged about cents
head, might he considered complimentary
no doubt the speaker had taken enough
such collections TO strike a fair average.

DANGER OF CITY PAYING DAMAGES.

A councilman observed yesterday that
the muck work along the streets requiring
deep bitches is likely 10 cause the city to
pay out some money for damages to man
and beast. He referred to number of
accidents reported to the council already
and damages asked, AID also recalled that
judgment in the district court had been
given for s. GOO to man who had been
thrown out OF his carriage as result OF
his horse being frightened at banner for
a church fair He did not exactly consld-
er that a fair deal but it was down. As a
member of the Judiciary committee hav
ing the matter in charge be would not
favor paving the $500 without further
testing it. The report had gained circu
lation that it was too late to take an ap-
peal but that was mistake, and the mat
ter would be considered at an early date
and IN the absence of way down COM
promise he would favor more war in the
case. But he thought in some of the new
cases against the city because of unguard
ed bitches for mains of some kind be
thought the city might be more to blame,
and in his judgment it would be business
for the council 10 give some attention to
red lanterns, and in putting the city in a
position to not be liable for damages in
accidents liable TO happen at any time.

1t would be foolishness to deny that the
way the teams and crowds have been
thickening up and increasing on the prin-
cipal business streets of Wichita for d
week past are encouraging. Few cities
anywhere, great or small, can show more
evidences of business activity. There
seems little doubt, if any, that all through
the fall months if not all through the
winter. Wichita is going to very largely
increase her volume of business over that
of any season in her history. Some special
lines will not thus show, of course, but the
bulk of business, covering all transactions
outside of real estate, will be large and
healthy, especially including the lines of
dry goods, groceries, etc, and the gram
and live stock markets The clothing
trade and that of the boot and shoe trade
also Will undoubtedly look up.

pRACTCAL LECTUREss.

Mrs. Emma 2. Long, dean of the school
of Domestic Economy of Iowa Agricul-
tural college. was invited 10 deliver a
course of practical lectures before the
Women's Educational and Industrial
union. OF Covington, Ky. The announce
ment of her coming was hailed with de-
light by the most cultivated ladies' OF the
city and books and pencils were pro-
yided in abundance to record what was
learned. that no 10; or title OF it be lost. i
peculiar fact was observed that the most
regular attendants, and those who most
enthusiastically declared they were learn
ing more than their moneys worth, were
the most noted cooks in the city, who. one
would have supposed, already knew every
thing about culinary affairs that could be
known.

SEEKING RTSJNESS-

1t is reported that one of the undertakers
of the city was informed that man was
dangerously Ill, and being seized with a
great desire to do business called on the
gentleman, who, by the way, he never
knew and seemed very much interested in
his welfare. Finally he made himself
known as to profession and asked the sick
man if his legs were getting cold. The
good wife at this moment could not COM
ply with further forbearance and suggest
ed that the enterprising gentleman leave
the house. He proceeded to make arrange
ments of that kind, but before leaving in
quired if there was anything he could do,
it was cuttingly replied: Nothing you
can do now for us and never will be, ex-
cept to leave the house, 1t was reported
to have been very chilly in that block for
some time afterwards.

THE CITY BUILDING SITE QUESTION.

There was some discussion yesterday
about the action of the council in selecting
four sites for the city building, from which
the people by vote shall make final selec-
tion at the coming election. 1t seemed to
be the general opinion that the action
would lend a novel feature to the election
and might increase the interest taken by
many. There seemed to be many different
opinions as to the locations selected by the
council. and in the interest OF giving the
information for the public in general cor
rect the locations as selected by the coun-
Gil and as put down by the city clerk are
given and are as follows:
l. Northeast of Lawrence avenue
and First street, four lots, $4,000.
,. Northwest corner of Emporia and
Williams, four lots, $4,000.
3 Southeast corner of Lawrence and
Williams, four lots, $4,000.
