in railroad circles here this morning. The
Mail says:
Another railroad accident occurred last
evening, the victim this time being Henry
Brinkmier. well known Santa Fe brake
man. He was coming in on freight on
the Augusta branch at the upper end of
the yards at Mulvane about 6 o'clock last
evening and got off his train to throw a
switch from the main track, SO as to let
the freight cross it. He got off on the
outside of his train and ran around the
engine onto the main track. just as the
Galveston passenger, which was little
late and was running about thirty miles an
hour, reached that point. The passenger
engine struck him and he was thrown onto
the pilot and carried about 800 yards, down
TO the depot. He was quickly taken from
the pilot in an unconscious condition and
DR.. 5. T. Shelley of that city summoned.
The body of the unconscious man was
placed on the passenger due here at 7:10,
which makes connection with the Calves
ton passenger there, and, accompanied by
DR.. Shelley, convey ed to this city. Here
he was taken to tie room of his brother
Lou, the first door east of the Union house,
where he now lies. He did not become
conscious until about $50 this morning,
but since then has been improving rapidly
and will probably ultimately recover. He
sustained mum Der of bruises and cuts on
different parts of his body, the severest
one being scalp wound on the back of
his head. It is thought that the brain is
uninjured, though one of the bony plates
of the skull is fractured Mr. Brinkmier's
parents live at kiowa, and he has lived
here at different times for several years,
running Oh different branches of the San
Ia Fe during that time"

TIE PIRATES ABROAD.

The report that the Pirates lost money
on their Oklahoma trip is not true. They
paid their expenses, and as they were not
inspired with nercernary motive, they
consider themselves we'll repaid They
were given warm reception by the peo-
pie of Oklahoma City and a reception and
ball at Guthrie and were everywhere re-
ceived with marked attention and hospi-
tally. The Oklahoma City Times Journal
after giving each special write-up says:
All in all it was a most delightful occa-
sion and we hope it may not be the last
time our people may have the pleasure of
seeing and listening to our Wichita
friends.
The Oklahoma City Gazette says: THE
Pirates of Penzance" met witha pleasant
reception last night at the opera house.
True the house was not packed to the
doors, still it was noticeable that nearly
every judge of music was in the audience
and what could be more complimentary to
company of singers? Aud that the
Wichita singers were en- rapport with their
hearers is evidenced by the hearty and
spontaneous appreciation manifested in
frequent encores. In view of the general
excellence displayed it is indeed difficult
matter to particularize in a case where all
did so we'll
At Guthrie the play was we'll received
by larger audiedce than at Oklahoma Civ.
The Guthrie News says of the bali:
After the opera an impromutu hop WAS
given to the ladies and gentlemen OF tie
troupe in which the Guthrie society people
participated Here again the Wichita
ladies and gentlemen showed theis good
qualities. The ladies are handsome and
affahle and the gentlemen gallant fellows.
The Guthrie young people did their best to
entertain, and the visitors alone can say
how we'll they succeeded.
The Guthrie Capital gives an extended
notice TO the opera and acknowledges AN
editorial call as follows; The laiie, and
gentlemen OF the Wichita Opera COMPANY
called at the State Capital Office today and
took everything by storm. We at once
surrendered and turned over the Office 10

MIR. AND MRS. HuTcHlNGs ENTERTAIN.

Had Shakespeare said "How sv oet the
moonlight sleeps upon this" Hill, he
would have truly expressed the sentiment
of all the fifty or more people of College
Hill who assembled in the spacious par
lors of Mr.. j. d. Hutchings' beautiful res
idence last Tuesday evening in the capacity
of the S. and B. club social.
| 1t was, indeed, a beautiful moonlight
evening such as can be seen only on Col
lege Hill, and it did truly seem as if soft
| stiffness and the night became the touches
| of sweet harmony" to those who were the
| recipients of the hospitality and hearty
welcome extended TO them by Mr.. and
Mrs. Hutchings that evening. 1t was the
monthly social of the S. and B. club
and, it seemed as if everyone had come
bent on making it grand success, which
it proved to be. The fore part of the even
ing was quickly spent in conversational
enjoyment which was pleasantly broken
into, and all were destined Ito sit and let
the sounds of music creep in their ears"
This sweet music was one OF Tito Matters
duets entitled lie Tourbilion, which was
very efficaciousiy rendered by Misses
Mary Rutan and Nellie Jones for which
they elected many compliments Mr. A.
A. Hyde then favored the audience with a
song entitled The Low Back Car" to
which Mrs Hsrton played the sccornpani-
ment, after which she rendered an instru-
mental solo entitled Pearl OF PeEin
Waltz" Both productions were well re-
ceived. The most prsisewortby and com
mendabe features Of the program
Was the sweet singing of pretty
little 4-year-old Rachel Davis who
was loudly encored for singing the
Bells" until she returned and sang
another juvenile song. She truly deserved
special praise for her heroic effort and
sweet singing. The accom- apartments 10
these songs we're executed by Miss Nellie
Baldridge ia an artistic manner and
evoked praise. The program was then
concluded BY Miss Lula Dewey, who de-
Iivered with perfect grscefulness and ease
recitation replete with mirth and /
humor, for which she was loudly eaoored /
until she recised another humorous story 1
