WHIP AND SPUR.

! In the west the main reliance for thor
cughly skillful and capable jockeys is on
colored boys.
Lillian Russell, the opera bouffe queen,
Is a familiar figure at the races near New
York. She places her bets like veteran
turtle.
Primrose Day, winner OF the Cesare-
witch stakes, was sold at auction in Eng
land recently for 60, 400, Lord Durham be-
Ing the purchaser.
The New York Jockey club announces
that next years Metropolitan Handicap
will have $1,000 added money and a guar

John A Morris is said to contemplate
Washington. If he buys it the track Will
be used for winter racing.
New England possesses a pair of marss
by Ben Franklin that are twins and it is
said that people who have known them
since they were foals cannot tell them
apart.
The man who named Kingmaker had
quite evidently been bit of a student Of
history some time in his career. The horse
is by Warwick, and hence the appropriate
ness.
1t is the opinion among well posted east
ern racing men that the New York legis-
lature will finally pass a law making it
illegal for race tracks TO earn over 10 per
cent. dividend.
Ruperta, the one time celebrated race
mare, has been retired to the stud. She is
now at Reeds Fairview (Tenn.) farm, and
will be bred to Forester, who thus far has
been most successful as a begetter of win
ners.
1t is proposed to spend s., 900 on the Stock
ton track, where Stamboul made his rec
ord of 2:1l, to convert it into a kite shaped
course. Mr.. Hobat, the owner of Stam-
boul, will contribute 81 900 to the improve
ment fund.
Firenzi is off the turf for time at least.
She struck herself while training for the
Suburban and badly injured the cannon
bone and tendons of one leg. She has de-
feated such horses as Tenny, The Bard,
Hanover, Elkwood, Exile and other great
ones, and could invariably be depended on
to do her best. Her retirement will prob
ably be final.
Messrs. J. A. and A H Morris are, as
rule, very happy in the selection Of names
for their horses; the best named colt of
their lot is b. and s., which means Brandy
and Soda. The name is particularly ap-
propriate, because the colt is by Tom
Ochiltree out of Tongue, and every one
knows that Colonel Ochiltree's favorita
tonic is brandy and soda.

And mine eyes are panied al the sight

That We bear my treasure away from my sight
With heavy reluctant feet?

THE WICHITA OF TO-DAY.

The following letter from the American
Investments. from the pen of Capt. j. G.
Rutan, is no less hopeful than it is con-
sentative and truthful:
st may be interesting to many of your
readers to learn what progress toward a
sound conservative basis this city is max
ing, and what has been done and is now
being done in that direction. As a jobbing
and manufacturing point, we have been
steadily forging ahead, until at this writ
ing we have sixty-seven jobbing houses in
various lines and eighty-four manufac-
tories of all kinds, both lines doing a
healthy, increasing business, gradually
extending out. and today supplying a
great part of Kansas. western Missouri.
western Arkansas. Oklahoma, northern
Texas, eastern Colorado and New Mexico
The wheat crop, which is now secure, and
by the time this reaches you will begin to
fall before the harvester, was never better
in yield per acre, and finds us with about
35 per cent increase over average acreage
This yield, with the probability of good
round prices, will result in a very salts
factory condition to eastern investors in
Kansas; for it will doubtless pay up
all arrears in interest and principal
due and over due, and do away forever
with doubts as to the future of Kansas
investments.
Our corn acreage. as well as oats. is
large, and both corn and oats are in tip
top condition. Our state has had an
abundance of rains and the growing crops
are not suffering, nor are likely to suffer,
from blights, bugs, droughts, or any other
cause.
ITO supplement the present encouraging
condition and prospects, the Wichita
Land and Improvement company was
formed by a couple of eastern bank presi-
dents, who saw in our present low price of
real estate the opportunity to make a safe
and exceedingly profitable investment for
the stockholders. They laid their PROPOSE
ton before some of our prominent men
here, who thought so we'll of the enter
prise that they Joined them, secured
charter, organized, and are now securing
to the stock. There is abso-
lutely no inside. nor ground floor, to which
every stakeholder is not welcomed;
no preferred stock issued Co promoters
or others, and the prospectus, includ-
ing by laws, show plainly what the COM
pany can do or may do, and it will be
found, perhaps, the fairest to the investor
of any land company now existing.
You will note that it is a part of the
purpose of this company to encourage
more jobbing houses, grain elevators and
all lines of manufactures whose raw
material is produced in this section, and
which furnishes good market for the
article of such raw material.
You need not be surprised to learn that
the effect of the bOunteous crops, supple
mented by the efforts of this company,
are already felt, and our city is again, in
the minds of shrewd business men, in
condition to inspire the kind of confidence
that of right she is entitled to as the
Of the southwest.

AT THE TABERNACLE.

Again the Evangelists were greeted
with a full and attentive audience. The
meeting at $3.50 p. m. had quickened the
interest OF every soul present, as it was
one of those fearful, prayerful, soul-stir-
ing meetings that no pen can describe,
and the influence of which is most potent
and irresistible. The theme this evening
was The Three Religions
l. That concerning Noah, the ark and
the food. The speaker gave a very graphic
description OF the difficulties OF persuade
ing people to enter the ark Surprising
the ark to be the church of today and
modern excuses for neglect to have been
employed when Noah warned the Antide-
luvians of their danger. He said they had
the hog, bear, goat, sheep ETC.,
in the ark and what was peculiarly
strange was that they were all peaceable
So it is in the church. There are men
who are of hogish disposition and Others
the venom of serpents, and every beastly
tendency and nature have been taken into
the church of Christ, and yet religion will
make all peaceable and harmonious. Such
Is the power of God in Christ Jesus
The description of the three religions
showed clearly the complete harmony Of
all the dispensations revealed in the Bible
in every matter of doctrine, and made
most profound impression as evinced by
so many responding to the invitations
The audience was much larger than last
evening, many not being able to procure
seats, and it was clearly evident that there
was a greatly increased interest and the
evangelist as evidently reaches out to
greater heights and depths in argument
and versatility of thought and expression.
