SALVATION ARMY AND JUSTICE.

WICHITA Kan, Dec /, go.
! To the Editor of the Eagle.
Iwish through your columns to kindly
speak word of advice to a certain butcher
on East Douglas avenue, who has now
twice tried to drive his team through our
ranks, and to run over and iniure some
one. We do no resist or make any threats
of retaliation, yet there comes time
when forbearance," etc, etc. We march
the streets only for the good of such as
he. There was just such a case as his in
the wicked city of Chicago short time
ago, and it cost the gentleman $50 fine,
besides there is suit for heavy damages
hanging over him. The marching of the
Salvation army is a great annoyance to
the devil, know, for through it he has
lost many of his subjects, but it belongs to
God and it Is here to stay. If IL was a pat
ent medicine or soap fake 1t would be
protected by al the power of the city, but
as Is it the poor deSDised followers of the
meek and lOwly Nazarene who said ''go
out into the highways and byways and
compel them to come in" The police can
stand within half block and see poor
sin bound man, blind with hatred and
malice, try with all his power to run down
some body. as one of them did a few even
ings ago. | can give his name 1f it Is
wanted. Now in conclusion | will say
that | went through almost four years of
a cruel and bloody war for the liberty of
this country and people, and now | thank
God that after many years of sin the
scales have been removed from my eyes
and | am now soldier in the army under
the Blood Stained Banner of King En-
manuel Yours for God and Liberty,
BENZ. T. CCLLAB.

The collections at the police court for
last month were s., 265. This is not quite
as much as for the month of October
which is supposed by some to mean that
the world is growing better The police
commissioners report the amount collected
but have not for some time turned any
money over to the city treasurer The
members of the police force had not been
paid for some months and hence this posi-
ton on the part of the board. 1t is
thought the force will likely be able to get
in enough money by the end of the year
to even up accounts.

SOMEWHAT DIsFIGURED.

The heating apparatus for the govern
ment building is going together slowly
The people around the building insinuate
very slowly" A few impromptu stoves
in a big cold room with clever indica-
lions of a sneaking cold snap is not a very
happy situation The day separators
throw the mail all over the building, being
so cold they can't handle themselves,
while the night force dump everything on
one carrier, usually some fellow who
reaches the suburbs with a cart. Jim Nc
Coy is said be losing ten pounds of flesh
every day, and in due time will be of only
average size Postmaster Jewett is out of
the city visiting, and is likely to remain
until the steam is turned on and every
thing found strictly reliable.
