LoNaFEILow AND EaxEasoN.


Mrs. Julia Ward Howe lectured last
night at the Presbyterian church, taking
for her theme "Reminiscences of Longfel-
low and Emerson" The speakers per-
sonal acquaintance with them both ena-
bled her to do them ample justice, and to
refer to many incidents having an i'm
portant bearing on their lives and works
which would otherwise perhaps never have
been told. The audience was naturally
select They all came to listen and not a
word was lost that fell from her lips. The
names of these two men, she said, belong
to the world and their works are the rich
inheritance of mankind. She spoke but
little of their works, which was too vast a
subject for such q limited lecture, but
wished to confine herself to "reminiscences
of their lives. Many of these incidents
will add an interest to the works of both
these men, which are so generally read.
The main part Of the lecture was
read from manuscript, but by no
means the least interesting portions
were the little anecdotes told in a CONVEX
sational way while the manuscript was
laid aside. Her first meetings with Long
fellow and Emerson and many little pleas
ant incidents in which she had partici-
pated. down to the last fond look at the
earthly remains of her friends, were
simply and feelingly told. The homes of
both were described and an insight was
given into their domestic lives and several
incidents that led to the production OF
some of their best works. Their connec-
ton with the then absorbing topic of
slavery and many important events of the
last few years was dwelt upon at length.
1t seems that this Skeleton in Armor"
was suggested to the author by Mr.. Howe.
At Fall River was a museum in which Mr..
Howe had seen a skeleton clothed with a
curious set of armor, and one day said to
Longfellow that he would find it subject
for a poem. On the poets return
he visited the museum and after
wards wrote the poem. Shortly after this
the museum and skeleton were destroyed
by fire. and had Longfellow not awaited
himself of that opportunity that poem
would never have been written.
In speaking of Emerson the speaker said
that for long time before she really knew
him she labored under the impression that
he was an infidel That was fifty years
ago, and since that time the world had
learned how much wisdom and goodness
were in his works. The ancient philoso-
pliers had said know myself" but it was
left for Emerson to say "be myself"
Emerson's love of truth was the founda-
ton of his works, and this foundation was
the cause of their success.
Enclosing, Mrs. Wa0d paid touching
tribute to the genius of both men she had
labored so willingly to faithfully inter-
pref.
Mrs. Ward will lecture in Peoria. ILL.,,
on Tuesday next, and will spend the mean
time that is not consumed in travel, in
Wichita.
This afternoon the Hypatia club will
tender Mrs. Howe pubic reception at
Council hall, 213 South Water street. from
8 to s. and all friends are cordially invited
to be present.

S. c. Gay, general freight agent of the
Santa Fe, spent the day in the city yester-
day looking over matters pertaining to the
increasing traffic on that road from this
point, especially that of the jobbers, live

Gay, who has been with the Santa Fe a
long time, is quite confident of the future

Gus times. Mr.. Gay and the editor of the

A NEW BANK.

The Citizens bank yesterday opened a
branch deposit bank at the stock yards in
order to facilitate the business of their
patrons In that vicinity. The demand for
this accommodation at the stock yards has
been steadily growing until it is almost
imperative. The new branch is situated in
the stock exchange and is fitted up with
every accommodation and will offer every
facility for the transaction of business.
Mr.. Faulkner, who has been the receiving
teller in the Citizens bank, will assume
charge of the new branch and is too well
known to the public to need any introduce
ton. His former position in the bank will
be filled by Mr.. CARRIER.

OF course there has been times with

VI course there has been times within
the past year during which the necessity
for pavements on our business streets
seemed an imperative one But few paved
streets of any city, however, whatever the
character of the material used, can equal,
much less surpass. the condition of Doug
las avenue and Main street at present,
either for smoothness, hardness or cleanli-
ness. The past year has been an excep-
tional one. The makeup and quality of
the soil of this valley, with an entire alb
sence of clay in the formation, renders our
streets and roads wonderfully perfect.
But for the exceptional excessive rainfalls
Wichita would never hava needed to have
gone to the expense of paving her streets.
