journed to seek oblivion and rest until

next Tuesday morning.
NOTES.
After hard weeks work two days rest
will be accepted.
A few of the teachers seem very timid,
as during recitation they are afraid of
their own lives.
The teachers annual picnic will be held
at one of the parks on next Thursday
afternoon and evening, As ali the iusti-
tute people know how to entertain each
other and themselves, most pleasant
time is certain to be had.
A great many good things are on hand
for next week, and the teachers will have
a lively time OF it. On Wednesday
evening is Prof. Dinsmore's lee
ture, Thursday evening the picnice
and on Friday evening c. F. Collins
lecture. These are all good and not a
teacher can afford to miss any of them.
Prof. Pierrepont's choir has regular
practice now and if the members don't
eat too much watermelon next week, fine
singing will be the inevitable result.
At the geography recitation yesterday
one enterprising individual drew an out
line map of the United States. On being
told TO locate on it tine most important
city, he did not hesitate an instant, but
quick as a fash down went Wichita.
Hurrah for Wichita and Sedgwick county.
The fire boys at No. l hose house surely
appreciate the daily passing of the insti-
tute people, as one was heard to remark
that he never before saw so many pretty
young ladies as go past every day." That
man is undoubtedly a connoisseur.
PROGRESSIVE DEVELOPMENT OF THE
ELIXIR
To the Editor OF the Eagle.
DEAR SIR:-I note in your issue this
morning a very interesting and readable
article headed, "Brown-Sequard Elixir"
which article tends to establish the great
success OF the Elixir on the corporal body
of one Andrew Thomas, late of the county
of Sedgwick; the statement being given
in said article that said Thomas Is one of
the survivors of the Ashtabula disaster,
and by the use of the aforesaid elixir,
made of the blood Of a lamb, had a re-
generation of his corporeal substance,
which said corporal substance he had
been deprived of like "Old Niger Ned"
and was slicker than peeled onion or a
billiard ball The results, as given in the
article cannot but be of interest to the
medical profession as well as the reading
public, to say nothing of the interest that
will be manifested by wool growers all
over the country That Cotswold wool is
of the finest order Of manufacturing wool
is an acknowledged fact everywhere, and
If we in Kansas, can add to our salt,
sugar and silk industries the reproduc-
ton of wool of this quality, then our fu-
ture cannot but be assured
That the experiment may be continued
is the wish of one who has never been in
different to the wool growing interests Of
the country.
When we take into consideration that
the elixir used in this case was from lamb
which was not pedigreed, and perhaps
bears the same relation in the sheep king
| dom that an ordi nary lop-eared cur bears
TO a Newfoundland dog. we may we'll be
astounded st what may be the results OF
using a finer grade Of sheep.
We trust that the physicians in attend
auce will endesvor 70 get the elixir from
the celebrated sheep Lord Wool" form
erly owned by David Fox Of Sedgwick
county, inoculatei in the said Thomas
1t stands to reason by the laws of nature
that IL common lamb produces Cotswoio,
| that IL the elixir were taken from Lord
| Wool" the result would naturally be a
| fine delalne wool.
| Now then, as dealer in wool, and as a
party interested in the wool industry Of
this country, il this experiment can be
carried to a great length, i. will bring rs
| prosperity, and now ready TO contract
the next years crop OF Mr.. Tho mas WOO
