A papal Chamberlain ou the POPE.

ST. Louis, Nov. 15.-Bishop O'Brien, one
of the papal chamberlains has arrived here
from Rome whence he comes as the papal
representative to attend the jubilee Of
Archbishop Kendrick. Concerning the
popes recent encyclical letter Bishop
O'Brien said: "'rhe pope had done nothing
more than enforce the principle contained
in the commandment. Thou shalt not
steal.' Private property in land has existed
from all time. 10 assert that the pope had
no right to enfore that principle would be
to deny the actual faet of its existence.
The church has only taken the part Of the
people against their oppressors. The world
looks upon the pope's position IA untable.
He will not leave Rome unless compelled
to. As to whether lie can be comnelled to
or not is matter which only the future
can reveal phe Jews and Free Masons ara

them the present rulers have bsen pitch

AWAIT TAKEN CARE OF.

The following journal entry was made
in the district court yesterday by Judge
Reed:
IN the matter of an infant, name I'M
known.
Now. this Sth day of December. 1871, at
the September term of said district court,
comes Mrs. f J. Foster, as president OF
the board of directors of the Wichita Chill
dren's home of Wichita, Kan, and pre-
sents to the court her application TO have
a female infant whose name is unknown,
born on or about the 21st day of July, 1891,
committed to said Wichita Children S
home.
The court, upon examination, finds
that said infant was abandoned and left
destitute and friendless upon the doorstep
of said Wichita Children's home on the
oath day of July, 1891 when said infant
was but three DAYS cid, and that said In
FAINT must have persisted had it not been
for the care and benefcence shown her by
said Children's home.
1T is therefore ordered and adjudged by
the court that said infant, now present in
court and known as baby be committed
/ to the Gus .ody of said Wichita children $
home, which shall hereafter have all the
rights appertaining to legal or natural
! guardians over and to said infant"

THE ALLEGED ROBBERS.
The Oficers Think They Have the Men Who
Robsed Hrs Thompson

Yesterday Constable Jim Williams went
out in the country with warrant for the
arrest OF Charles Short aud William Fan
ming and at O'Clock brought them into
Justice Jones' court where the hearing OF
their case was postponed till Thursday
and each of them placed under a $500
bond 10 be present at that time. In brief
the men are charged with the robbery OF
Mr. Thompson house on the Drake
farm, Nov. 80.
All the readers of the EAGLE will re-
member the robbery in question Ga the
30th of last month, two men entered the
house of Mr.. Thompson few miles north
of the city in broad daylight, and after
binding Mrs. Thompson, hand and foot,
robbed the house OF $50, leaving the lady
tied at their departure. which condition
she remained in for over two hours.
At first no clue to the identity of the
robbers could be ascertained. but later the
neighbors went TO do a little detective
work Hints were dropped here and there,
and after all these hints were put together
with a number of circumstances, sus-
picion was directed against Short and
Tanning. Yesterday or the day before
one of the young men paid for load OF
hay with a s. bill, and this bill was iden-
titled as one of the bills stolen from the
Thompson house 1t was folded in pc
culiar manner in the pocket-oook which
contained it when the robbery occurred,
and it was this peculiar manner in which
the bill was folded that confirmed the
suspicion that Short and Tanning were
the robbers.
OF course there are some other n2por-
taut points upon which the arrest was
based but the county attorney did not feel
like giving them away until the proper
time comes, which is at the preliminary
examination. Both young men are well
known in this city and the townships adj
joining and it is said they have always
borne a good reputation. If they are
gnilty it will go hard with them on ac-
count of the circumstance of binding the
woman. A man cannot be sent to the
penitentiary for the simple theft of any
sum under $50; but in this case the theft
was $780, Even if it had been but % cents
after perpetrating the outrage upon the
woman by binding her, they can be sent
to the penitentiary for a period of twenty
years in the discretion of the court.
The case, owing to the nature of the
theft and the boldness and daring OF 1t,
has attracted good deal of attention and
there is no doubt but that the court room
will be filled on the day of the preliminary
trial.

FINE OFFICES.

Dale g. Wall have now the extreme
satisfaction of knowing that they have
the finest law offices in the state Of Kan
sas. To this every attorney in tine city
agree The Offices are on the fifth door or
the Sedgwck block. in the front OF the
building, in the southwest corner. The
offices consist of three large Office rooms,
the largest IN the building. The middle
room is the law library, stenograph )
headquarters and waiting room, while the
other rooms are for consultation, one for
each member of the firm. Each of these
two rooms is deliberately furnished with
the finest kind of carpets, leather covered
sofas. easy chairs, statuary and pictures.
1t is said that each room cost i've hundred
dollars TO furnish besides the pictures
The furniture in the library is
fully as good IS the furniture in
the district court room. Judge Wall
says that in the olden days, the days OF
Lincoln and Douglas for instance, all a
lawyer wanted as a statute book, good
memory and sharp and caustic tongue;
now &c is different, ne wants thousands
upon thousands of dollars worth OF books.
Speeches, he says, don't go in courts any
more; what is wanted most are authorities
and presidents, and therefore library Is
the thing for the practice OF the present
