PRECIOUS PERFUMES
Artistically Arranged in Sublime
surroundings


AS we near the season Of good cheer
the question that is foremost in the
average mind is: "To give and what to
giye?" How about RickSecker's"
rich odors in an ornate bottle? From
the most ancient time Perfumes have
been held in high esteem, almost ali the
human family taking pleasure in their
use. and as there is a language OF odOrs
as we'll as flowers, they can well be
made to serve double purpose. by
proper selection you can pay a cOmpH-
ment or declare devotion. For instance,
you present "Mizpal" Perfume ami you
as much as say: 1.-The Lord watch be-
tween me and thee when we are
absent one from another" Now,
if you have decided on Perfu-
merry, don't make mistake and Sc
cure some alleged OdOr, but get
the genuine article. Americas per-
fume puryeyOr, 'Ricksecker," probably
produces and packs the most satlsfae-
tory goods in this line in the world
they can be found in all Christendom-
and the novel extracts are not only the
purest, but are filed into bottles or re-
ceDtacles of cut glass and china that are
works of art and serve as rich orna-
ments 10 enbellish any roOm.
The headquarters for these goods In
this city is at Mr.. Lathrop Mussetter's.
corner of Wabasha and Fourth streets,
and the royal display he makes for the
holiday trade is well worth witnessing.
1t includes rich array of ingeniously
designed bric-a-brac in the form Of cut
glass bottles, plain. inlaid with gold and
silver, and others with innumerabIe
coIors blown into them, as we'll as bisque
aud china vases and pitchers OF every
imaginable deSign--some hand-palnted
and all filed with the above choice
perfumes OF every odor known to man.
Also choice collection Of baskets, all

TOO SLOW, TOO SLOW.

A dispatch to the EAGLE from Kansas
City last night, dated Mulyane, Kan,
April II, says:
DR.. J. NJ Bradford, for twenty years a
practicing physician here, and well known
throughout the state, disappeared six
months ago, and, as nothiog has been
heard of him since, his friends suspect
foul play. Six weeks after his disap-
pearance his neigh bors met TO inquire into
the matter John Henderson, with whom
Dr. Bradford's two children, aged about
20 years, went to live after the doctor
disappeared, told them to take no steps in
the matter; that Bradford was all right,
and was away so that the children could
sue TO recover property disposed OF by
Bradford, rs IL had belonged to Mrs.
Bradford, deceased, and they had not
signed the deed. The matter was dropped
on Henderson's representations. Hender-
son and Bradford's children are now in
Oklahoma, and the physicians where
abouts are still unknown. The local AL
lance held a meeting, and will place
detectives to work TO ferret out the
mystery.
This dispatch might be interesting to
the readers OF tine EAGLE but, with all due
respect the Kansas City news gatherers, II
happened to be published in these
columns, in full, just five months ago. Il
need surprise nobody to see the Kansas
City papers coming out one of these fine
mornings with a sensational account of a
gentleman named Jonah being thrown
overheard and swallowed by whale.

SCHOOL BOARD PROCEEDINGS.

! The regular April meeting of the board
of education was held yesterday at 8
o'clock p. m The members were all pres
ent except Coats, Parkhurst and Wich-
| man.
The minutes of the last regular and
special meetings were read and approved
without correction. DIR. Stevenson asked
| for leave of absence TO attend a teachers
| meeting ut Emporia, where he will make
an address to the state teachers.
The committee on accounts reported bills
amounting to about 500. and upon motion
the same were allowed.
Mr.. McNair moved that bill be sent to
r. a. Sankey for thedtuition of his niece
one year in the city schools and one year
IN the high school. Mr.. McNair said that
this was the only non resident to his
knowledge in his district and that if he
had failed in bis duties during his term of
office as member of the board of education
it was only in this instance in not seeing
that this matter had not been attended TO
sooner Mr.. Stanley remarked that this
matter of non-residents receiving free
schooling, if there were any such. should
properly be referred to the judiciary
the matter was referred to the committee
on high school and library and all other
such cases.
The following resolution by McNair was
taken from the table.
Resolved, That hereafter no insurance
be effected upon any buildings of this
board OF education without the matter
being first submitted TO the committee on
ways and means.
DR.. j. D. Van Nuys offered the follow
ing as n substitute for McNair's.
Resolved, That a new committee be
created To he known as the Committee on
Insurance" of which the president of the
board shall be the chairman, and the
other two memb ers shall be the chairman
of the ways and means committee and the
chairman of the committee on buildings
and grounds
The substitute was adopted unani-
mously.
The new members will be sworn in at
the next meeting, May 2. at which time n
superintendent and a secretary will be
elected,

a pAsrARpLY CRIME.
Some Unknown Scoundrel sets Fire 10 Mrs.
Wagner's House.

Some evil-minded wretch made desper-
ate attempt about 10 O'clock last night
| to burn Mrs. Gus Wagner out of house
! and home. Mrs. Wagner lives on the
corner diagonally across from the Metro
pole hotel and was, At the tine mentioned
ironing clothes in what Is known as the
middle room Of her house. She, or some
one of the family, smelt smoke in the rear
room and upon going out there the back
| door was found opened and a big blaze in
closet in the corner of the room that had
got such a Roadway that for minute or
two it looked as if the house would be re-
duced to smoke and ashes Quickly Mrs.
Wagner got some water and after dashing
several pals of it into the blaze it was ex-
tinguished. They soon returned to their
work but were not long at it when man
| ran in excitedly to the house crying fire -
The front room was reached and there
sure enough was another blaze. The
| cushion in rocking chair was burning
| and that, too, was put out.
This desperate effort to burn the house
caused great excitement in the family and
the poor woman and children were so
terror stricken that policeman had to be
stationed in the neighborhood TO allay
their fears of a return of the incendiary.
That he was an incendiary there is no
doubt. He evidently went in the back
door and kindled fire in the closet and
when he found their attention was drawn
to that portion of the house exclusively,
he slipped into the front room. the doo= of
which was unlocked, and kindled a fire
there.
Who can it be? That's the question.
Mrs. Wagner seemingly has not an enemy
in the world. and yet none but an enemy,
and cowardly enemy at that, could be
guilty of such a base outrage. Investiga-
tions will be made and if the incendisry is
caught he will be made to suffer for his
crime.

A HABEAs CORPUS CASE.

Saturday Senator Bentley filed writ OF
Habeas Corpus in the district court of this
county to take one George p Arthur out
of the custody of Sheriff Ault aud Jailer
Duncan and at present the case is being
heard by Judge Reed. Arthur is absolute
ly lost by the courts of Oklahoma. He
was accused of counterfeiting in county
'-B" of that territory and, although this
offense was against the United States. he
was tried before county probate judge
and sent to Jail to Wichita with the dis
tinct understanding that he should appear
before the said probate judge February .
When the second of February
came around Arthur couldn't ap-
pear before the probate judge of
county B for the very good reason that he
was confined behind four solid inches Of
iron bars. The county B authorities evil
IDENTIFY forgot him and didn't send after
him and now himself and Senator Bent
ley are trying to find out where he belongs.
Mr. Bentley alleges that the probate
Judge had no right to order his coufne-
ment fer an offence against tie United
States and If he did he was compelled to
take some steps to have him brought to
trial on the day set, Feb >
IL is n complicated case and one that
will require the senator's best figuring to
place Arthur where he belonge.
