ST. FRANCIS HOSPITAL.

Among the many worthy institutions of
this city, st. Francis hospital in the
Fourth ward, stands out, as a noble
charity, no man is asked his creed who ap-
plies for entrance there. If he is sick and
needy the door opens. House bill No. S23
was Il bill making certain appropriations
for hospitals in Leavenworth, Atchison
and Topeka. All Catholic institutions.
When this bill was read for the first time
in the senate, Senator Bentley, ever on the
alert for the interests of this county,
amended the same including ST. Francis
hospital and giving that institution 81 $780,
the same rs appropriated for the other in
stitutions in the bill. The amendment
failed to pass the house and ON Senator
Bentley's motion committee of confer
ence between the two houses with Senator
Bentley as chairman. was appointed, a
favorable report from the committee was
procured, and by the personal efforts OF
Bentley and Douglass on the floor of the
house, aud the bill became law. This
is the first money from the state that
Wichita rs ever received. st. Francis
hospital. has patients from as far east as
Atchison and as far west As Dodge
City. All honor to this noble charity,
which blesses this city. and all of the sur
rounding counties. All honor to those
noble women, dressed in the sombre gar
ments Of their order. trained nurses, who
devote their lives to the sick, the sore. the
needy and distressed. Bentley and Doug
lass voted right on the house bill No SIS,
for Wichita first, last and always. A
glance at the record of the legisiai ure of
1889 shows that Senator Bentley passed
through the senate at that session a bill
making an appropriation of 81, 400 for st.
Francis hospital, aud $1,000 tor the Chill
dren's home OF this city.
In spite of the efforts of Representative
Douglass on the floor of the house, these
appropriations were defeated in the house
by Jim Legate. who was then the chair
man of the appropriations committee of
that body. Leyate is today a renegade Re-
publican, training with the Peoples party.
Nevertheless, ST. Francis hospital still
stands with open doors to the distressed of
every creed and nationality.

WHEAT SPEAKS.

The Dsmo-populists held another rally
last night, in the United Workmen hall,
on North Market street. proceeded by a
torcnlight procession something like the
last one held here minus the fireworks
The speaker OF .he evening was labor
agitator named Wheat, from either Iowa
or Nebraska, and who holds some local
Office in the old Union Labor party. He is
a typical representative of what is called
the walking delegate" aud makes a
speech something similar to those of Ralph
Beaumont. who spoke in many parts of
Kansas four or five years ago. He is by
no means as eloquent as Beaumont. but
his argument is about the same.

Literary Theft.

| The editor Of q horse paper may be
honest even il he can't write. All
men were not born to be great edi-
tors; but the Almighty by that wise
! dispensASion which sends rain ION
the just and unjust" alike, has given
every man, great or little, white or
black, q cuance to be truthful and
honest; and the satisfaction of hav-
! ing this moral courage is worth more
than to have the brightest genius
that ever ''plucked bright thoughts
from the Lalc-faced moon, or dived TO
the bottom of the depthless deep, and
dragged up drowned honor by the
locks.n In our humble way, we have
made, from the beginning, a fight
against an evil most common in
many stock journals, and often the
only tarnisn on the shield of an
otherwise bright career-that OF lit
erary thievery. Now these papers do
not look at it that way. They gather
the thoughts, the facts, the ideas of
others, and use chem as their own !;
not to steal, but because they are so
insanely Jealous of their neighbCrs
that they are afraid to mention each
others name in their columns, for
fear that the siXty-twO million five
hundred and eighty-nine thousand
seven hundred and twenty-five peO-
pie enjoying the proud distinction of
getting up a July celebration every
year and calling themselves Ameri-
cans, may, forsooth, find out that our
glorious republic contains another
horse paper within it's wide do
mains, other than the one they now
read.
This is littleness.
And littIeness will fall. 1t has
never yet lived in an atmosphere
that was even strong enough to sup
ply the oxygen needed for the primi
tive lung of a toad in a dungeon.
The world is large; there is room
for all he thrives best at last, who
works with AL honest endeavOr to
help others along with himself; and
as sure as God is God, the man or the
journal whose narrow ideas are 20
contracted by the. circumference of
the small sand hole, which, Gopher
like, they have rooted into, will
wake up some day and come out into
natures sunshine and sweet air,
only to find that the procession has
passed by, mistaking their small
mound for the elevated cave of
nest of festive tumble-bugs.
He helps most who helps his neigh
Dor; and he, who draws his soul with
in the narrow circle of his own con-
ceit, and closes its door upon the sun
light of a generous spirit, out wraps
himself in darkness and hides him
self from light.

The Pneumatic Tire Sulkr.

Man Is au iDgenius animal and as
the saying is, ''recessity is the moth
"r OF Inventions In his efforts TO
get the utmost speed out of horses,
the pneumatic tire sulky has been
brought into use this year. Many
bOrsemen believe this sulky enables
horses to go in from two to three Sec
onds faster, per nile. 1t was in this
suIky that both Nancy Hanks and
Hal. POINTER went in 2:0514, and that
many OF the fast races have been won
this year. 1t is like any other sulky,
except the wheels, which are % inch
es high Only, having ball. bearing
axles, thus reducing friction to a
minimum and having large inflated
rubber tire which glides smoothly
and noIselessly along.
Those who have never seen them
will able to do so at the races to-
morrow.

Circuit Court Proceedings.

In the case of State vs. Joe Green

long deliberation brought in q YER

Columbus Patton, colOred was tried
yesterday for poisoning his mother,
now Bette Parham. The circum-
stances of the case were peculiar.
Columbus is a good humored little
negro between twelve and thirteen
years old. The proof showed that he
had never given his mother any
trouble and had no spite against her
at the time of the poisoning. Yet he
procured arsenic, telling the druggist
that his folks wanted it to kill rats
He took the poison home, gave it to
his mother, and told her that it was
medicine which one of her neighbOrs
had sent her. Being sick at the time,
Bette took Columbus prescription
and would have died, but for the
timely assistance of the doctors. The
boy don't seem to have known what
would be the effect of the poison on
his mother and yet he had sufficient
cunning to deceive the druggist. On
account of his extreme youth, the
jury brought in a verdict OF not

A Coon Fight.

The Duck River bridge was the
scene of q lively scrapping match
about l p. m. Saturday afternoon be-
tween two negro boys, John Allen
and Bud Love. John Allen lives at
Rufe Peyton's and was on his way
home Bud Love had been cursing
him all morning in town and fol-
lowed him down to the bridge, sti |
abusing him. When John got on the
bridge he felt that the corporation
limits were past and that he was on
his native heath, so to speak, and
turned to "effect" himself, as he said.
Some lively smuggling followed and
then rocks and sticks were brought
into play. The air was thick with
them until bystanders interfered. A
few bumps and and bruises were re-
ceived, but no serious damage was
done. The police bagged John, but
Love escaped. He is the negro boy
that Depdty Sheriff Harris scared 80
nearly to death not long ago, by pre-
tending to shoot at him when tried to
run aWaV.
