A CHANCE FOR HUMANE WORK.

An occurrence was brought to the notice
of the police Monday evening by some OF
the business men of Douglas avenue, who
aver that the same thing has been going
on all winter. A fellow lives with his
mother on College Hill and also has wife
and one or more children. The women
folks support the family by taking in
washing, the old lady doing the greater
share of the work.
The son and husband goes around and
collects the pay Tor the washing, driving
horse and buggy and generally accom-
panied by little girl or years of age
and very thinly clad.
The man has been in the habit of going
into some warm joint and sitting by the
stove while his little girl waited outside in
the buggy nearly frozen. One gentleman
says he saw the little thing lying IN the
bottom of the buggy fast asleep couple OF
weeks ago when it was too cold to be COM
Portable on the street even when a person
was well wrapped, this too, at very late
hour
On Monday evening the little girl was
noticed in the vicinity OF Douglas and
Topeka at about o'clock, driving slowly
up and down the street. She kept this up
for two hours or more, when gentleman
who had been watching her went out and
asked her who she was waiting for She
replied she was waiting for her father.
About o'clock another man who had
seen her could not stand it any longer and
securing policeman, went into neigh
boring joint where they found the head OF
the family sitting by the stove enjoying
an animated political discussisn with some
like spirits. The officer suggested TO him
that he had better go home, when he had
the effrontery to state that he had only
been in there a moment, having just left
his horse short time before on the street.
The officer proceeded to read the humane
law to the gentleman and told him II he
did not at once start for home he would
occupy cell in the cooler. The officer
further intimated that should this occur
again it would probably cost the young
man something.

ANOTHER MICHIGANDER LETTER.
From the Cassopolis Democrat.

From the Cassopolis Democrat
GARDEN PLAIN, Kan, Dec. q, 1890.
To my Michigan Friends-I was raised
in Cass county, Michigan, and am &C
quainted with four-ffths of the farmers In
the county, and believe Cass to be equal to
any county in Michigan.
l came to visit Kansas under the strong
statements of Mr. Cowley. His state
ments seeming to me to be too glowing
and extravagant to be true, Mr.. Rathbnrn,
Collins and myself have spent week here
and looked Sedgwick county and Wichita
over thoroughly, and frankly and unhesi-
tatingly say that we have seen more good
land, fine growing crops, cattle, horses,
hogs and every other evidence of lasting
thrift and prosperity in the one week than
ever saw in five times the travel III any
other state. Some parts of Kansas may be
myth, but this great Arkansas country
is an overwhelming reality to "A man from
any eastern state.
They have got it on us, sure. Ii you
come here and look at it you will do just
as the balance of us did before coming:
swell up and declare it is land scheme
and vision to fade away just as you are
about to behold it. But if the eye can see,
and communicate to the brain what 1t
sees, then we are in the finest farming
section under the sun. We visited the
farm of D. W. kirkbride yesterday. He
commenced here a few years ago on l6l
acres. He now has 500 acres, 800 head OF
stock, 43O acres of wheat. headers, thresh,
ers, scales, corn cribs and granaries filled
to bursting with grain; stock all tine and
thrifty: has one crib with IS, 900 bushels OF
corn. We saw it; looked at it; wondered
at it; walked around it; looked at itagaln,
and said to ourselves: 1T is So"
You cannot miss it coming to this part
of Kansas. PERRY J. BREEZE.

TIE LIGHT INFANTRY BALL.

The Wichita Light Infantry boys gave
dance at the Armory last night 1t WAS
very enjoyable affair and was participated
in by about forty couples. The boys
turned out nearly a full company at the
dril and gave very fine exhibition OF the
tactics to goodly number of visitors who
occupied the gallery. The boys deserve
great credit for the interest taken to pro-
vide so nice an amusement and those who
participated seemed well pleased. These
dances are given every two weeks, on
Tuesday evenings, TO raise the necessary
funds to pay for their new uniforms. The
music was furnished by Shaw's orchestra

of the finest dances, everything considered,
