RATHER SINGULAR

Yesterday evening as the Rock Island
train from the south showed up at Hays
vile 10 take on the mails quite number OF
missiles were thrown through the car win
dows. Several of the passengers were in
jured slightly and the porter Of the Pull
man received a severe cash on the head
The whole affair is a mystery and none OF
the train officials can account for the at
tack There were undoubtedly several as
sailants, but who they were and what
motive prompted the act Is yet unknown,
Officers were sent al once to investigate the
matter which viii likely be unravelled in
a few days. Train only stops at Haysville
on special occasions and takes the mail
while in motion which fact may be the
origin Of the trouble but this theory Is not
considered plausible by the officials.

NJ w. Levy-I have noticed of late
years that when person complains of any
ailment his friends ask him if he has tried
this, that or the other kind of mineral
water, and the show windows of most any
drug store are filled with bottles of water
from all the celebrated springs in the cOun-
try, which leads me TO think that the wat
er cure is becoming more popular every
day. And if my conclusions are correct
Wichita, with her usual good fortune, will
not get left as health resort With the
Kechi springs, four miles north, that have
a local reputation for curing the most
stubborn cases of indigestion. The Iron
springs, nine miles east, that are as good
as the famous Iron springs of Colorado.
The Providence springs, about twenty
miles southeast, whose waters are as eX-
hilirating as champaign, and the seven
springs of Geuda, fifty miles SOUTH our ac
feasibility to medical waters is all that
could be asked.

a great many difficulties, but think now
that l will make a success of it. Much of
the delay has been caused by the apathy of
the people directly interested in the lOca-
ton. Had they done their duty the ques-
tion would have been settled long ago As
it now stands the money is about all sub
scribed, and l expect soon that 100000
will be secured, which is the amount that
the plans call for. That amount ex-
pended in buildings and improvements at
this time would be very acceptable.

c. +. Barwise-The past week has prob
ably been the greatest week for Kansas in
her history Corn has grown from two TO
three feet; the mercury stayingin the nine
ties, the ground thoroughly soaked and
every condition being favorable for the
most rapid growth ever known. The 10th
of June corn was from two to three weeks
late; the 10th of July will see corn as far
advanced as it ever is at that time of year.
Yesterday stalks of field corn was brought
in light nine aud ten feet tall and the indi-
cations are that the record Of last year
will be broken. New wheat is coming on
the market aud is bright, plump and so
dry it will rattle like shot. Our farmers
never had finer weather to harvest their
wheat and if there is any damaged or
musty wheat this year it viii be the re
suit of carelessness.

j. F. Vanderpool-There is no question
in my mind but that a large artificial lake
can be made east of College Hill on Doug
las and Second streets. With a large sum
mer hotel and beautiful drive on Second
street and an electric railway on Douglas
avenue it would be a very popular resort
for the people of this city. The banks Of
the lake could be beautified and trees and
adjoining parks laid out which would
greatly add to the attraction. Wichita
needs just such place as this and one
easy of access. With a beautiful lake well
supplied with boats in such climate "a
you have all the year round there would
be no doubt about its success as a resort.
/ am surprised to find such a climate here,
but the fact that Wichita IS located an
equal distance from the Atlantic and Pa

see reason for the even temperature

ed all such inquirers that the people of
this state are intelligent, and can be trust
ed. When they left the rugged hills OF
New England and the fertile lands of the
middle states for the still more fertile
state of Kansas they did not leave their
good sense behind, and of one thing they
could be assured-that no laws will ever be
enacted subversive of the rights OF prop
erty; that our people have no tendency
towards communism or anarchy.
r. NJ Piatt-It is surprising that peo-
pie in the east are so ready TO believe any
thing and everything said or printed de
rOgatory of Kansas, and when the truth
is told they are very skeptical, and when
they come out and see what we have
almost universally they say that they dare
not go home and tell the truth about their
impression and what they have seen, as
their neighbors would not believe them.
am thoroughly convinced that the way
to settle Kansas is to get the people to
come out and see what we have. l have
met great many strangers in our city
and have yet TO converse with one that
said he was disappointed; that what they
had heard and read of Wichita had given
them greater impression than they real
lied; but on the contrary they have in
variably stated that the half had not been
told. l am convinced that the policy
adopted by the board of trade, the real es
tate exchange and the county immigration
society, to publish nothing but facts con-
servatively stated, in their advertising
matter. is the best policy.
