the Unfinished Part OF the Building.

At last Garfield university will be com.
pleted. and the building. which is the
pride of Wichita. will be the finest of the
kind in the state. For several months the
architect from the east has been expected
to come to begin the work, but the people
were doomed to disappointment several
times before and it was feared that the
project would not be carried out. Mr..
Walls a well-known architect of Boston,
has arrived in the city and Immediately
went to work upon making the measure
ments and plans to enclose the entire
building as well as complete it. The i'm
mense stone steps leading to the various
entrances will be built, and as soon as Mr..
Walls completes his figures workmen will
begin. The windows of the south wing of
the building will all be put in before cold
weather, and the entire work is to bs
completed before winter sets in. 1t is

the university that at last their hopes will

THE FIGURES.
Most Conservative Estimate Brings Long 70
the Line with 2, 600 Majority.

There are all kinds of estimates being
made on the result of the contest between
Long and Simpson in this congressional
district. The Republicans who figure on
elections, or rather a majority Of them,
seem to think that Longs majority will
be 4, 900 over Simpson while, on the con-
trary, Simpson men are claiming the dis
trict by from 500 to 1900. They won't bet
on either sum however. A well known
travelling man. a resident of Hutchinson.
has made an estimate which he claims is
a correct one, although little low in the
estimation of those of the Wichita poll
ticians who are in the inside. His esti-
mate however is not complete. He says
Long will come to the west line of Sedg-
wick county with majority of 1900. He
has figures to prove this assertion
and no man with any respect for mathe-
mates can go over these figures with him
without being convinced. He not only
gives the figures by counties. but he ex-
plains the reasons for them in detail,
giving every change in the movements
and shiftings of population, etc, with
degree of minuteness which seems won
derful. There is not single incident
having any bearing on the election, no
matter how small, that he does not take
into consideration and reduce to figures
Little trif1es that one man out of 1000
would never think of are discussed mathe-
matically at length, which shows him to
be man not only gifted with extraord-
mary patiences but fitted with wonder.
full discernment as we'll. 1t now depends
on the vote, according to his count, of
from tho west side of Sedgwick county
east to determine the result. He says
that Long cannot possibly be beat, and
will bet that the figures he has made will
not vary $50 when the returns are in.

WORKED The PENsIoNER.

There is a man in this city who seems to
have earned the fate that awaits him il
common gratitude is worthy OF any
reverence He is an old soldier and PEN
sioner. Some time ago he received through
the liberal legislation of the Republican
party pension with back pay amounting
To So 900 and by the way Jerry Simpson
didn't get iE for him either. When the
campaign first opened the Democrats,
those % friends of the old soldier got
around him and for political effect offered
him every inducemens to bet the money
on Jerry simpsons election. The posses
sion of so much money kind of turned his
head aud he bet the entire amount, in
various sums, giving his opponents inn
meuse odds. At present he has not dol
lar TO take up the hundreds of bets that
are being maize every day on even mouey
and he is half distracted. III. will not.
and can not, win single bet he has made
and SO sure As the sun rises on the morn
ing of the 9th of November he will be as
poor as he was before he received the
bounty OF a generous government The
fact remains that he is still al old soldier
and as such he Is entitled to respect, bu,
