A BIG PACKING BUSINESS.

The packers of Texas and Mexico and
the dealers of Kansas City, which have
been finding the live stock market OF
Wichita very convenient the past year,
will, after October, have to pay for all
they get here. The great packing house
of Jacob Dold & Sons are arranging for a
business this winter which will make even
Chicago open her eyes. The hog output
of south Kansas will be enormous, and
freights and prices will be in the interest
of the Wichita market. No hog raiser
within fifty miles east or two hundred
miles west can afford to send their hogs
anywhere else. Time, distance and price
will be the factors which will win for
Wichita. Mr.. Whitaker says so far as
bis house is concerned it will be on deck
for an immense business. SO it will be
seen that all the hogs that Fort Worth or
Ell Paso or Kansas City get from the
Wichita market they will have to pay for.

WILLIAM GREIFFENsrEIN.

From the Oklahoma City Journal
Hon. William Greiffenstein of the Pot
tawatomie nation has spent considerable
time in Oklahoma City of late. This gen
tleman is not always asleep when his eyes
are closed. It is surmised that he is lay
ing the foundation deep and wide for the
town of Burnette, only a few miles from
the center of the Pott country. Mr..
Greiffenstein does not hesitate to say that
the county seat viii be located at his
place. This may be true but as il is a
few miles from the center of the county,
some are disposed to doubt that Bur
nett will be the fortunate place Be that
as it may Mr.. G.. is holy terror when it
comes to town building. At an early day
in the history of Wichita this gentleman
revolutionized things to suit his notion.
The town at the junction Of the Big and
Little Arkansas rivers was started under
another name and occupied place two
miles 10 the north of its present location.
The founders were bent on speculation
and charged fabulous prices for their LOTS
Mr.. Greiffenstein demonstrated with the
town builders but to no purpose.
They paid no attention to his eEtrea-
ties but used him with indifference.
This did not suit Mr.. g. and ne went to
the corner of Main street and Douglas ave-
nue. and laid of the present site of Wichita.
He gave lots away to all who would build
and improve them. He christened the new
town Wichita, after his Indian wife, He
paid for the moving OF the houses for all
who would move from the old town to the
new. A regular stampede was instituted
and the old town was deserted and Grifen-
stein is the father of Wichitu, named by
him in honor of his dusky wife.
Mr.. Griffenstein is immensely wealthy,
made SO by the good investments he has
made. His residence in Wichita is a per
feet palace with the most enchanting sur
roundings, such as lawns, walks, foun-
tains, drives, flowers and shrubbery. The
surroundings were laid out by the most ex-
pert landscape gardener and the residence
designed by the most skillful architect,
and has all the modern conveniences and
arrangements for comfort. If Mr.. Griffen-
stein does not get the county seat at Bur
nett he will make town any way that will
be hard to beat.

AT THE TABERNACLE.

The Evangelists were again greeted with
a very large audience. 1t was announced
that communication with the California
state committee results in permitting the
Evangelists to remain here one week
longer if the interest should demand it.
The matter will be decided tomorrow
evening
The text of this evenings discourse was
Luke 14:18-"And they all of one consent
began 20 make excuse" This text was
critically analysed and discussed in con-
trast with the command of Christ, Seek
ye first the kingdom Of God and his right
eousness and all these things shall be
added unto YOU" Attention was called to
the fact that the religion of Christ was not
incompatible with successful blessings
honestly conducted. He called the atten-
ton to the character OF many of the
wealthiest and yet the most devout
Christians. He dwelt with great en-
phasis and most pathetically on the dan
ger and insidious poison and deception
lurking in the excuses that rule the hearts
and minds of multitudes of the disobedi-
ent. His imaginary description of the
discussion between demons in perdition
as to the best means by which to deceive
men and damn them eternally was beyond
all we have heard hitherto the most
thrilling and heart piercing.
At the first invitation thirteen came
forward, and at the second three others.

HYPATIA MANDUCATES.

Last Thursday afternoon Hypatia went
on a picnic excursion. Laying aside for a
time the study of Browning, and the
heavy questions pertaining to woman's
| advancement; forgetting to discuss those
delightful but confusing problems about
the soul, the club went in a body to Lin
wood park, to one of the charming curves
of the ubiquitous Chisholm, and there
lent itself to perfect advancement Of
spirits and exuberant freedom.
A picnic and supper under the
spreading walnut trees, with not
man to mar the liberty OF
the OCCASION, except two stray employees
moving the grass at a discreet distance.
A perfect day. The bluest of skies, with
now and then soft, white clouds drifting
lazily and modestly across the face of the
July sun, as if striving to hide from its
impairment gaze, the merry party OF
women who had stolen off foran afternoon
to themselves.
Only a just fear of consequences pre-
vents an interesting report. There are
rumors OF the widest hilarity, and.
(teil it not among the staid sister clubs.
nor to the General Federation,) of
foot racing and hurdle jumping, in
which the display of dimity and
yellow garte-ed hose went unrebuked,
and after which the palpitating victors
were famed by admiring supporters and
comforted with--ice water. A coal oil
stove had been taken out, and kettle to
brew
THE cup that cheers but inebrates,''
but alacki for the feminine resolution, not
match could be found among all the
crowd, and once more, when woman would
fain have stood alone and triumphant, she
was forced to lean on man for support.
1t was humiliating but unavoidable,
SO a meek and suppliant deputation
were started across the field to beg few
matches.
But that was royal spread under the
leafy shade. Each seperate daughter of
Hypatia could not refrain from thinkin g
how the dear men would have enjoyed it.
Delicate fried chicken, slices of pink
ham and pungent, crispy salads, the sweet
est of bread and the dewiest butter re-
dolent witt clover blossoms, pickles and
blackberry jam, the most bewildering
array of cakes and tarts, all made by the
fair hands of the jewellers.
Bubbling, spontaneous wit and poetic
sentiment sparkled and glowed around the
festive board. Only one thing was lacking
the masculine appetite.
Yet after all it was almost perfect, the
freedom from restraint was genuine rest,
a heavenly recreation, and the afternoon
will long be remembered as a red letter
dav in the Climb calender

TREE TRIMMING.

The EAGLE as the early promoter of the
universal tree planting which took place
in Wichita in its cattle-hood days, seems
to fail in impressing the ideas as to the
utility and disturbances of proper kind of
trimming. Its trimming convictions were
embodied in modified sense in an ordi-
nance. But the ordinance only looked to
the convenience of the pedestrian and not
TO the beauty or health of the city. The
old notion of topping off street shade trees
is erroneous. What is wanted is the shade
and the comfort and the beauty, yet at the
same time an unobstructed view of the
home and surrounding with a minimum
of dampness and a chance for lawn grasses
10 flourish. The only way to reach all
these is in high body-trimming. All low
latterals should be mercilesSly Topped off
for from fifteen to thirty feet up from the
foot OF the tree. This will not only per
NIT an uuobstructed and attractive view
of the home and its surroundings but will
permit the morning and evening sun TO
reach the grass, and keep dry the yard, but
also let the breeZes circulate freely around
and about, which latter means both health
and comfort. The average owner dislikes
to cut off a big limb or fork of shade tree
but, off with it, rs in two or three years it
will never be missed. and your tree will be
all the more majestic and attractive The
old resident portion OF the city is shaded
now toe closely or'health, If not for COM
fort. The EAGLES plan, and which it has
advocated for years, viii leave breathing
room under tall forest whose upper
foliage will afford shade for roof and
street during the middle Of the day, while
beneath the view will not be INSTRUCTED.
Don't you see how it would be? As the
city authorities are moving in the matter,
therefore our old thoughts again.

A BELDEN JURYMAS,

Hon. Robert Moore was over from But
Ter county yesterday. He reports the state
of Butler prosperous. The crops are about
all harvested except corn, which keeps up
the promise OF an immense yield. Mr..
Moore was the foreman of the jury in the
Belden case, and had been up 10 see Adams
at the Jail. nd also had talk with the
boy, whom be found very apprehensive of
the worst. and, therefore, nervous. Mr..
Moore does not think the boy normal. He
says that he seemed 20 him during the
trial to be incapable of both friendshipan
personal hatred. The jury made recon-
mendstion Of clemency. but there was no
escaping the verdict they found. Still.
Mr.. Moore hopes that the execution may
not take place: that the president may
commute 70 life imprisonment.
