Nm Orthodox Jewish Custom.

Chicago contains between fifteen thou
sand and twenty thousand Hebrews who
cling to the custom requiring all meat
for eating to be marked with lead
seal, vouching for it's cleanliness. The
trouble which has broken out among
the orthodox Hebrews in New York
city, says the Chicago News, is owing
to this custom. A prominent rabbi in
that city whose duty it was to distribute
the seals is charged with having dis
posed Of them in such a way as to make
it profitable to himself. A prominent
Hebrew of this city, speaking of the
matter yesterday, said: THAT custom
is relic of the dark ages which exists
now only among Russian Jews of the
most orthodox kind. Within the last
few years there has been a great influx
of these people into Chicago They are
to be found mostly about Canal and

1t Is Not "Good Form" to Carry Parcel
in England.

1t MOI "OOOQ Ori1 ~ CoihJ "tSSAi
in England
In London it is not considered 'gooc
form" for gentleman to carry through
the streets a parcel, however small o.
elegantly wrapped. He may carry ;
book, if it is not too large and is no
wrapped up, for book is book; Blu
a parcel may be pound of cheese or {
dozen red herring. The restriction is 1
foolish one; a form of class distinction
that is inconsistent with the highest
civilization, in which every man will be
gentleman if he is thoughtfully con-
siderate of others, whether he is a
laborer or rides in a carriage. The au-
thor of ENGLAND, Without and Within, y
gives an anecdote of an easy-going
English gentleman, who was not bound
by the absurd law against parcel-carry-
ing.
A shoemaker had missent to him a
pair of shoes intended for neighbor,
and had probably sent to the neighbor
the shoes that should have been sent to
him. AS he had no prejudice against
carrying bundles he went with the shoes
to his friends house.
On arriving at his friends door he
asked to see Mr.. Dash, but was under
stood by the servant to ask for Mrs.
Dash, and was ushered into her pres
ence. The lady, who had never seen
him before, looked up and CURLY asked:
'What have you there?"
''Mr. Dashs Shoes" replied the gen
tleman
"Oh, yes; it's all right. Mr.. Dash is
out, but he'll be in soon, and if you
want to see. him you'd better take a
seat in the hall and wait till he comes.
s'But, madam" began the gentle
man, who was baronet's son.
Never mind, never mind; it's all
right. Step out in the hall, please, and
wait for Mr.. DASH
The gentleman, of course, appreciated
the situation at once. But he was too
well-bred, and had too keen a sense of
humor to explain, which would have
both mortified the lady and prevented
him from enjoying her mistake. He
stepped into the hall, intending to give
the shoes to a servant and leave the
house.
But meeting his friend coming in, he
gave him the shoes and, after few
words, bade him good morning Though
pressed to remain, he refused, knowing
that his return to the wife's presence
would cause her embarrassment.
His consideration for the feelings of
another person would have made him
gentleman if he had been hod-carrier.

HIS OBITUARY..
A Soldier Who Had Twice Been Num-
bered with the Dead.

1t has often happened to public indi-
viduals to see, through some error,
their own obituaries in print. An en-
barrassing consequence of this blunder
is that one feels obliged. ever after to
live up to the good things said of him
when he was supposed to be no more.
Mr. Frederic Villars, the artist, says in
the Cosmopolitan:
Twice during my career have 1 been
given up as ''gone over to the majority
first, when 1 was reported to have
been killed in the advance of Hicks
Pashas army against El-Obeid, in the
Eastern Soudan, at the time when that
force met disaster at the hands of the
Mahdi and his followers.
I was walking in London with a
cousin, when we were greatly aston
ished by noticing several posters of the
evening papers, mentioning my name
in the Soudan. Presently friend of
my cousin came up and said to him:
s'My dear fellw, this is sad news
about your cousin"
''What's that?" said he.
''Why his death in the Soudan."
'aThat's all nonsense" was the reply.
'sThis is Frederic Villars by my side.
Allow me to introduce you"
His friend stared at him with disgust
and DISBURSEMENT.
'It's all very we'll" said he. 81 know
you can't resist a joke, but this sort of
thing isreally too bad. Your poor cousin
is lying in the desert, dead, and you are
jol1ing!"
''Haye no fear" said I. 81 am the
man, and 1 am every moment more and
more satisfied at the fact"
''Then," said he, believing at last 81
must hurry back to the Savage club.
There's colleague of yours, with his
back to the fire, holding forth to the
members about the campaigns he has
seen with you"
'.Hold hard" said 1. SIS he saying
nice things about me?"
Eyes, of course"
''Then," continued, ''by all means
leave my colleague to his pleasant
thoughts"
This colleague at the Savage has
never forgiven me for knocking all the
sentiment out Of his funeral Grafton by
persisting in being alive. When he and
I meet now, we only lift hats.

The italian at Sea.

An Italian is queer fish, says an old
seaman. He won't take berth on a
ship that does not feed his bill of fare.
When they go into ticket Office their
interpreter asks for the bill of fare,
which is published by some of the lines
along with their advertisements. He
scans it closely, and the first one which
sets out regular Italian meal, garlic,
macaroni, Italian wines and the like,
is the one he closes on as though it rep
resented so many dollars. You can't
switch them to any other line after they
have sized up the feed Money is good
for them, but macaroni and garlic are
more desirable and the line that feeds
them those edibles is the one that gets
their money.

SERVING TERMS OUT.

People passing the county Jail see a
woman at the bars in an upper story who
is quits talkatiye. This is Alice Jeffries,
the woman who is sentenced for q years
imprisonment in the county Jail for being
an accomplice to Lilly May in robbing an
old man and throwing him out of a
window here last year. Jeffries is very
garrulous and also writes good many
letters. She wrote one to the governor,
at least she called to her attorney. Tom
McMechan as he was passing the Jail
yesterday and told him that she had just
received "a nice letter from the governor"
An EAGLE representative recently saw
Lilly May in the woman's department OF
the state penitentiary at Leayenworth.
This part of the prison IS walled off by it
self. The whole is laundry; women
convicts run the engine, make the soap
and tend to everything. There is not q
man in sight, except the guards on top the
wall. Lilly May is quite good looking
girl, but on this day she was right in
among the suds at the prison. and there
is no mistake about the hard labor" part
of the sentence. Her sentence is for a
year. She is the best looking woman
among the convicts.

SATURDAY NIGHT.

Saturday night is the scene of tumble,
a jostle and hum of business that pre-
cedes the quietude Of Sabbath. People
with bundles, people with babies, people
with business, people out on dress parade.
all alike carry that air of satisfaction and
pleasure that springs from the anticipa-
ton of the divine gratuity of day of rest.
Last evening the stores were full, for new
supplies must be laid in and new garments
for the school children must be seen to.
The grocery clerks work way into the
night and the lights in many other stores
do not close until midnight. But whether
his labor ceases at five or ten or twelve
there is that same willingness to work in
the man who is spurred on by the promise
of day OF rest and peace.

BEAUTIFUL PANSIES.

The fayorite flower in the city at this
moment is the pansy, whose pied glory and
many hued beauty is always captivating
to the eye. They are peddled on the
streets in large quantities and find ready
sale Last year the supply gave out before
half the demand was satisfied and extra
precautions have been taken this spring
by the florists that the supply should not
fall short One florist south of the city
has 5000 plants, and as they are all in full
bloom the sight OF them is said to be
charming. Plants retail on the streets for
80 cents dozen. A great many people
buy the plants just for the temporary
blossoms. Little girls peddle boquets Of
pansies on the street. An expert says
there are only two weeks left for trans
planting pansies safely.

KNEW WHERE THE BABY WAS.

There is a colored man in town who
owns a blood hound which occasionally
comes in handy as we'll as nets neat little
sum for his owner. The dog is utilized in
finding things. Recently when Mr.. Alex
ander's baby was lost up on avenue "A, F."
and the whole neighborhood had been
searched without success, this blood
hound was sent for. He was given one of
the baby's garments to smell, but he
would not leave the door of the house. He
stood and whined at the door and the
owner wanted TO let him in the house.
The parents insisted that the house had
been thoroughly searched. but they let the
dog in, anyway. He went straight up
stairs into a certain room and stood by the
bed wagging his tail. The bystanders did
not known what TO make of it, until some
body CHANGED TO look under the bed and
saw the lost child fast asleep.

A CHICKEN ORDINANCE AT LAST.
Councilman Goode Comes to the Resene.

There will be an ordinance against puo-
lie chickens introduced at the council
meeting next Monday. The gardening
season is now on, as is also the scratching
season among the Plymouth Rocks and
the Shanghais These two incompatible
industries in animal and vegetable life
have left the scars of war on the felicity
and amity of many a local neighborhood.
The people with the chickens claim that
the people with gardens ought 70 fence
their gardens, and the people with gardens
are just as positive that the opposite
course bears the similitude 70 justice.
However, as the chicken is favored with
animal lie and is aggressive. he
is mora open to municipal legis-
lation. And he will catch it.
Councilman Good of the Fourth ward.

talize himself among the devotees OF
garden truck and home vegetables by in
PRODUCING chicken ordinance Mr.. Goode
was seen by an EAGLE reporter last even
ing. He said that he would fight for this
measure to the bitter end: that numerous
letters had been received by him, relating
awful experiences with the poultry tribe
and craving for some action on the part
of the council. Mr.. Goode said that he
had understood that in former years, there
had been fierce struggle over this question
in the Wichita council and that the
chicken neighbors had come out victor
ious. He didn't think that it would re-
suit that way this time. II have just
clipped this little piece from the Mulvane
Record" Mr.. Goode continued. The clip
ping is Eli order from the city marshal
and reads:
Notice is hereby given that from and
after this date l will enforce the ordi-
nance prohibiting chickens from running
at large within the corporate limits of the
city of Mulvane. All persons who have
chickens will save themselves trouble and
loss by keeping them from intruding on
their neighbors."
Mr.. Goode concluded: Wichita must
not let a little town like Mulvane precede
it in such an important matter"

The total receipts Of stock at the Union

were So cattle, 7,s24 hogs. The cattle
receipts were a little smaller than last
week, while the hog receipts were over q

As compared with the corresponding

Stockmen OF experience who know the

A VISIT TO THE sEDGwICK COUNTY JAIL

Caldwell Journal: The writer was Wis
itor at Wichita yesterday and while there
visited the Jail for the purpose OF seeing
Adams, the man who is under sentence to
be hung on the 10Th of June for the muir
der of Captain Crouch, and the boy Bel
den, who is under the same sentence for
killing a Young man who held a claim in
Oklahoma and forging his name to re-
linquishment in his (Belden's) favor. The
boy buried the body Of his victim in a
manure pile, where it was afterwards
found. The crime was worthy of more
hardened criminal than young Belden ap-
pears to be. Although the time set for his
execution is drawing near, Belden shows
no indications of trouble, but rather pre-
sents bright appearance and never would
be taken for a murderer. be is a Tine
looking young fellow, and although he
claims to be of age he looks more ike
boy of IS or 10 years of age. He talked
considerably over his sentence and
seemed to be satisfied that it would
be changed to Imprisonment for life. Ii
there is any regret or remorse, his couu-
tenance deceives him. Adams was in his
hammock reading and in answer to "Good
Morning. responded with grunt, never
raising his eyes from his paper or showing
any inclination whatever to be friendly.
In talking with the Jail keeper we learned
that Adams was very confident OF coming
out perfectly clear and Is now under the
impression that the fault Is with his at
torneYs for his not being acquitted. He
persists in the belief that he was Justified
in killing Couch. and that hei prosecuted.
Ii is rather the opinion that his mind Is
becoming slightly deranged. Adams
friends in Oklahoms City are raising
money for new trial and 1t IS the belleI
that it will be granted.
The three young men. Stanley, Beers
and Jacobs who recently had their trlaI
for the killing Of Brady, at FL Reno. and
the Jury failed TO agree, are still IN Wich-
tia Jacobs and Beers are out
under $500 bonds each, and Stan
lev is still in Jail waiting the ar
rival of his father from Missouri who will
furnish bond for his release Stanley IS a
handsome young fellow, highly educated,
and brought up in the right way. he Is
pleasant talker and makes friends OF all
who visit him. He is confident of coming
out of his difficulty all right and no one
after visiting and talking with him VIII
desire anything else.
The Mexican who killed negro woman
in Wichita is under a sentence OF thirty
wears in the state peniteutiary IS yet In the
county Jail waiting removal to Leaven-
worth. He has got it all figured out how
long he will have to remain In the pen and
has deducted full time for good behavior.
He has some hopes that the Mexican gov
ernrnenc will intercede in his behalf.
