What a Woman Can Do.

So great is the influence of a sweet
minded woman on those around her that
it is almost boundless. 1t is to her that
friends come in seasons of sorrow and
sickness for help and comfort. One sooth-
ing touch of her kindly hands works won
ders in the feverish child; few words let
fall from her lips in the ear Of q sorrow
stricken sister do much TO raise the load
of grief that is bowling its victim down to
the dust in anguish. The husband comes
home worn cut with the pressure Of bush
ness and feeling irritable with the world
in general, but when he enters the cozy
sitting room and sees the blaze of fire and
meets his wffe's smiling face he succumbs
in a moment 10 the soothing influences,
which act a. the balm Of Gilead to bis
wounded spirits that are wearied with the
stern realities Of life
The rough schoolboy flies into a rage
from the taunts of his companions TO find
solaee in his mothers smile; the little one,
full of grief with her large trouble, finds a
haven OF rest on its mothers breast; and
one might go on with instance after in
stance of the influence that a sweet mind
ed woman has in the social life with which
she is connected. Beauty is an insignin-
cant power when compared with hers

A POLITICAL DISCUSSION.

Prices hall was filled with colored
voters last evening to hear a political dis
cussion which had been arranged between
J. H. Moore and Belts, who espoused the
Republican cause. against d. L. Robertson
and William Hodge, who were advocating
Alliance ideas. The meeting was called to
order at $50 o'clock, and L. r. johnson
was chosen as chairman, and John F.
Lewis secretary. Mr.. Moore opened the
discussion and made brilliant speech. He
was followed by Mr.. Hodge, of the Al
lance, who made quite a lengthy talk.
Mr.. Belts then followed and handled the
live issues of the day in an able manner,
ahd Robertson closed with some lengthy
and pointed remarks in favor of the AL
lance. After the discussion the following
resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That we. the colored citizens
of Wichita in mass meeting assembled,
heartily endorse the administration of
BENJAMIN Harrison and the brilliant ideas
OF reciprocity as enunciated by James q.
Blaine; that we are earnestly in accord
with VIM. Mckinley. the great champion
of the rights of American workingmen
and American industries, and he has our
best wishes for his success in the great
Cubernatorial race in Ohio; that we look
upon the appointment OF John l. Waller,
consul TO TAmmatavia, as u Just and prop
err recognition of his manly qualities and
true Republicanism.

AN ATTRACTIVE PICTURE.

The window of Martins art store con-
tains another pretty painting which may
be classed as among the best pieces in oil
produced by Wichita talent. The paint
ing is Of Mozart, the greatest musician
that ever lived. 1t represents him at the
age of IA years rendering his first mass the
Dominican Chapel to a number of friars
and celebrated musical composers who
stand and sit around, some of them awed,
some astonished and others overpowered
by the powerful composition and its rem
dition. Every face in the picture is a
study. 1t was taken we believe from an
old print and is the work of one of the
sisters of All Hallows academy, the one
having charge of the art department. The
picture which is intended for the walls of
the parlor of that school speaks strongly
for the artistic interests and ability of the
painter besides assuring the patrons of
that school that a competent artist has
charge of its studio.
