Secretary Foster deserves credit for
having refused to allow the sons Of two
prominent Treasury department officials
to be appointed private secretaries TO their
fathers. The practice among officials of
placing members Of their immediate fam
lies upon the Government pay rolls is at
best bad one, and should be entirely alb
olished as far as Republicans are con-
cerned- 1t has been the cause Of more
than one scandal. We tip our hat to the
man who dares to do right, even though
he thereby offends some Of his friends.

The Italian government in declining
to take any Official part in our Columbian
Exposition is only carrying out the policy
it has followed for some years in regard
to international expositions, but it does
rot follow that Italy will be unrepreseated
at the big show. The Italian government
has already let it be understood that it
will do all that it can to encourage its cit
liens to make private exhibits and present
indications are that Italian interests will
be largely represented at the fair.

A NEW CHURCH.

Rev. Thomas Penick, the most popular
minister in Wellington aud perhaps in the
entire southwest was in the city yesterday
looking oyer the city with view to estab-
fishing headquarters here for pushing for
ward and extending the influence of the
Cumberland Presbyterian church. Mr..
Penick has been in this missionary busi-
ness for years, and is reputed among the
people of that particular faith to be one of
the best workers in the organization. He
says it is the policy of the church to form
great missionary points with the march of
progress and he thinks Wichita on account
of all its other important and progressive
features the very best point to locate a
great central point from which to carry on
and extend the work in Kansas.
Mr.. Penick was at the PreSbyterv meet
ing few days ago in Minneha township
and the zeal and enthusiasm manifested
there by the people of his faith stimulated
him to attempt greater work. Hon. J. T.
Halsell of Wellington, formerly congress
man from the Bowling Green, KY, dis
trict, was moderator and the meeting was,
in point Of numbers. the best ever held in
the Wichita Presoytery. 1t was reported
there that five new church buildings are
going up in the Wichita Presbytery and
their congregations IN healthy condition
aud expanding rapidly While here Mr..
Penick met many members of the Cumber-
land Presbyterian faith. all OF whom gave
him great encouragement. In Yelling
ton be has built up fine mission. and the
church has become very popular there.

A CROOKED HORSE SALE.

A man claiming to be a minister came
into town last week with good team of
horses, offering them for sale. In his rounds
the esented-to-be-elerieal gentleman
came upon George Morgan, of Morgan
Bros stable After some dickering the
two agreed upon price for the team,
Morgan paying the minister $40 down to
close the bargain. The clerical horse
trader left for his home in Butler county,
taking his horses along. Later in the
week he came into town again, and again
sold the team to another man for higher
consideration. He got cash from this
party and left town, keeping the $40 of
Mr. Morgan's. When the latter gentleman
got wind of this bus mess he at once noti-
fed the authorities. Officer Dunbar went
out yesterday to bring in this offender,
but the gentleman was not at home. He
had skipped out to escape arrest. His
home is on the Whitewater, and the Off
GERS are sure of intercepting him, as they
seem to know their man.
