corning the business is given. In other
words peculiar advantages that are per
haps only enjoyed by one firm and which
have been acquired by years of experience,
which as everybody knows cost something,
are not dealt with and only such advantages
as are open to all are referred to. Such a
course is the only fair one to all parties
concerned because, in the first place, any
other course might be manifestly unfair
to the merchant and at the same time hold
out inducements to strangers which would
mislead them.
The Candy Kitchen started in this city
in a small way in 1885, in a one story frame
building, then No. PA North Main street.
Mr. Robert A. Spears was the protector
of the enterprise and is still the proprietor.
What the factory Is today is but the
growth of that small beginning.
This enterprise with hundreds Of others
has simply grown with Wichita and is one
of the many representative institutions of
the city Its success simply demonstrates
that a good field was open to the right
kind of men and now that the city has OBJ
tanned her majority proves that the field
has enlarged so that several competitors
and hundred other enterprises occupy it
successfully still leaving room for more.
1t is not intended that the reader shall in
fer that an inexperienced man could have
made a similar success or that the
present field is so inviting that a
novice can 90 into it and command
success with any degree of certainty. Mr..
Spears is a practical candy maker, having

THE FOURTH AT BENSON.
To the Editor Of the Eagle.

| To the Editor of the Eagle.
The one hundred and fourteenth ami
versary OF the birth of the American Re
public will be gratefully remembered for
many years by all those who had the good
fortune TO be present at the picnic held in
'Benson's Grove on last Friday. This
delightful rural retreat is pleasantly
situated six miles west OF Wichita on the
banks of the meandering Cowskin. whose
limpid waters flow on TRANQUILITY and nois-
lessly TO the sea; fitting emblem of the
peaceful, prosperous aud happy people
who reside in this productive valley.
After partaking OF all the delicacies Of
the season prepared by the wives and
daughters OF the vicinity, under the syI-
van shade of the walnut and elm trees
and enjoying introductions and hand
shaking ad infinitum. we were called 10
the feast of reason and the flow OF SOUL
by the glorious strains of the organ pre-
sided over by Miss Hornecker.
The rendering Of the Red, White and
Blue" MY Country It's OF Thee aud
and other appropriate and patriotic songs
by the choir of Harmony church, was IN
excellent style and elected from those
present well deserved rounds of applause.
The orator of the occasion was ) we'll
known Wichita lawyer, Mr.. W. r. Payne,
who graphically described the scenes and
incidents which preceded the signing of
the Declaration OF independence IN a
logical and effective manner. His desCrip-
ton of the hardships endured and the
heroism displayed by our revolutionary
forefathers was a realistic piece of word
painting which made an impression on the
audience which can not be readily efaced.
1t is needless to remark that st the close
OF his address he was rapturously ap-
plauded.
Declarations, vocal and instrumental
music followed, and then Miss Hornecker
vacated her place at the organ TO give an
opportunity 10 Miss Cook TO display her
rare gifts. Her cultured voice and bril-
liant performance on the organ won well
deserved compliments from an appreci-
alive audience
Next came feats of agility. August
Gabrelson set a cottonwood tree thirty
five feet four inches high, denuded OF its
bark, with a silver dollar on top for the
boy who could climb up the dizzy height
to where the dollar of the daddies was in
serted by that public spirited citizen Ola
Benson. The tree was as straight as the
cedar of Lebanon and it seemed impossi-
BILE to ascend TO where the glitterlng prize
rested. But the son of Squire Seaman, of
Wichita, performed the perllous feat and
descended amidst [ he cheers of the specta-
tors. BY this time the sun was sinking
in the west and all departed 10 their re-
spective homes more than ever determined
to perpetuate to our children ; children
the institutions established by demi-Gods
for the Cypress ed of all nations as well as
for the benefit of their own descendants.
