suddenly opened his eyes and looked
straight into her own.
At the look, so stern, so reproachful,

Children are great imitators, whether

Few Of the very many who are tor
rorized by thunder storms pause to
consider how little loss of life is caused
by lightning strokes, says the Philadel-
phia "Times." There are many more
people drowned each year than are
killed by lightning; there are, many
more people killed by railway accidents
than by lightning, and there. are many
more people killed by the varied ac-
cidents which prevail in even the best
regulated communities, than by light
ming None are terrorized by fear of
drowning; hundreds of thousands
travel daily on railways without fear,
and none take thought of the countless
forms in which death comes by acci-
dent everywhere; but all more or less
bow to fear of lightning that is not
nearly as destructive Of life as other
sources Of danger which will give them
little or no concern. There is danger
in the thunder storm, however, and it
is alwise to take every reasonable pre-
caution against it. Good lightning
rods are always wise, and there is al
ways wisdom in closet doors and win
dows, and always foolhardly exposure
in taking refuge under isolated trees
during storms.

KAILROADs IN swITzERI.ANu

A great amount of railroad building
is going ON all over Switzerland, spar
ing no mountain, no valley, and it is
surprising to find that this is most diff
flcult of all countries for railroad en-
gineering should possess relatively
more railways than the New England
states. In the latter there is one kill
ometer of railways to every seventeen
square lilometers of land; in Switzer-
land one to every thirteen square kill
ometers. In other words, the New
England states are four and half
times larger than Switzerland, and
have three times more railroads, al
though in Switzerland one-half the
country is occupied by the heighest
mountain ranges Of Europe. The re-
oeipts average in the New England
states about s3,OO0a year per kilometer;
in Switzerland, $500, which difference
is mainly due to summer travel.

Ay, smile, We false beauties,
And spoil while you can
That temple ungarded,
The heart of a man.
Brief, brief is your triumph
The day draweth nigh
When ye, too, for pity
All vainly shall cry.
The oak that the tempest
Hath smitten amain,
Though stript of its green leaves,
May bud forth again;
But the lily, once broken,
No care can restore
II fades like fair dream,
And gladdens no more.

Shall rise when Ambition
His trumpet shall blow;

TANNING. THE IRISH ORATOR.

Hon. II. !. Tanning, the great temper
ance orator delivered his first lecture in
this city at the South Emporia avenue NJ
+. church on Sunday evening last. AL
though it was not certain that he could fill
the engagement, and the notice of the lee
ture was quite short, fine audience
greeted him promptly at the appointed
hour. And never was an audience better
pleased with what they heard. Mr.. Fan
ming held his hearers for an hour and all
regretted that the lecture was not an hour
longer.
1t is safe to say that Mr. Tanning has
superior as a public speaker, and he is per
fectly at home on the subject of temper
ance, in which cause he has been one of
the most prominent and effective workers
for many years. His lecturers are power
full and convincing at every point and are
interspersed with enough genuine Irish
wit and pleasing stories 10 keep his audi
ence in good humor all the time and make
them hungry for more. Now that his
fame is becoming known here as well as
in the east where he has been so popular
for many years, his services will be in
great demand here.

BUSINESS For ELEYATORs.

If anything further in the way of facts
as TO the extent and value of the cereal
crops in the section of country within
easy reach of Wichita were needed to show
the necessity for providing large eleva-
| tors and storage warehouses at this place,
the following data furnished the EAGLE by
Mr.. j. W. Fanneman, the assessor for
Garden Plain township, Sedgwick county.
| who was in the city yesterday. would
seem to be enough TO convince the most
| skeptical. The three crops of corn, oats
and wheat for the year 1889, for that town
ship and we have this showing: Corn,
2l5,0O0 bushels; of this $50 900 bushels was
sold for SIS, $50, and which eight months
afterwards was worth $3.50 Wheat,
50, 200 bushels raised, $1,000 bushels sold
for 81, 900: worth eight months
afterward $4,000. Oats, 10000 bush
els raised 5000 bushels sold for $500,
worth eight months afterwards $4,000
The aggregate of the three crops was 290,-
600 bushels, of which 100000 bushels were
sold as soon as harvested, because the
farmers either needed the money and were
compelled to take what thay could get, or
because they did not have and could not
crops. Consequently as we have shown in
the foregoing two-thirds Of the crops nam
ed was disposed of by the producers for
SAT $50, which if held for eight months
would have yielded them S135, 900, showing
a clear loss of sS7, 80. There are one hun
bred and fifty farmers in Garden Plain
township and the loss apportioned among
them represents $3.50 each.
This, bear in mind, is for one town
ship. If the ratio of yields, quantities
disposed of and losses sustained be placed
at one-half the amounts given above for
the other twenty-five townships of the
county, it would foot up a loss to the
farmers of the county of over 81, 100000 for
the crop of 1889 alone; enough to erect and
put into operation half a dozen elevators.
With such statements of facts, that can
not be questioned for a moment, it would
be next to criminal neglect that provision
has not been made long ago for saving
this immense waste that is keeping our
people poor in comparison with what their
condition would be in a short time if our
resources were husbanded and turned TO
proper account.
The amount realized by the farmers of
Garden Plain township from their crops
of 1889 was probably barely enough to
meet their necessary expenses and interest
account; whereas if they had storage
facilities so that they could have held their
crops for say six months, the difference in
the price they would have obtained at that
time would have not only been enough to
meet their current expenses and interest, !
but would have lifted them out of debt |
and made them free and independent in !

for the wood work, practically, before the
council closed the contract with Mr.. Rog-
ers to construct the building, Carson con
cluded that he would not steam up in his
planning mill again, as a shut down of
nearly two years had caused machinery to
get rusty; so, he let out the contract TO
Appleby, who is in the planning mill bust
ness and Carson was satisfied to take a
couple hundred on the side for having
good contract. Mr.. Appleby has been
somewhat nervous for some time. wanting
to get at the work and complete it. He
has some work in Texas now, also.
