WICHITA coNs1sToRY, No. 2.

The semi-annusl reunion of the A. A
Scottish Rite of Freemasonry will be held
in their beautiful and commodious cathe
dral on the corner of First and Market
streets in this city on Tuesday, Wednesday
and Thursday, April ee, 81 and %, al
which time all the degrees from the
Fourth to the Thirty-second inclusive, will
be conferred. The Higher ORDERS" as
they are designated, are replete with i'm
portant and wonderful knowledge to the
student of Freemasonry.
The ancient rituals. comprising re
ligious, philosophical and chivalric de-
grees. have been skillfully dramatiZed and
beautiied by expert masters, who have
made them a great source of enjoyment,
and fund of Masonic information which
makes this branch of Masonry immensely
popular with those who have passed
through the sublime ceremonies and are
educated in the grand principles its lofty
moral teachings.
Wichita consistory was chartered in
January, 1885, with mem bership of twelve
only, who belonged to various consistories
throughout the United States, and it now
proudly boasts of a membership of nearly
200 enthusiastic brothers, located in differ
emit cities in the state, who will always be
found to be the leading representative pro-
fessional and business men of their re-
spectiye communities. This remarkable
growth of the order is due
somewhat to the popularity of
the institution and the untiring
efforts of the officers who have had the
different bodies in charge with a fixed de-
termination to make it second to none in
this country. Their efforts have been
crowned with grand success, far beyond
their utmost expectations, for they not
only own their building and grounds
which, by the way, is valuable piece of
property on one of the principal business
streets in the city, centrally located and
used for no other purpose thau the Scot
fish Rite work, but they have beeu en-
abled to purchase thousands OF dollars
worth of costly robes and paraphernslia
with which to produce the finest effect
when exemplying the beautiful work, and
it is the only consistory in the state that
work all the degrees with the proper
necessary paraphernalia required for such
work.
There is no other institution, order or
society ever established in this city that
has met with such unbounded success, or
that draws to its busy mart so many men
of capital and influence from the different
parts of this state and others as this sab.
lime order of Freemasonry. The few cities
in the United States having good working
conssstories become widely known among
the fraternity, and Wichita No. Q is not
an exception to this rule. Already their
for fine work has gone abroad,
and it stands well up toward the head
with the older bodies Of the rite in this
country. They have already a large num-
Der of petitions elected and others coming
in with every mail sufficient to make this
the largest class in the history of the body
Wichita is proud of its consistory, and the
is proud Of its members.

EASTER DRESSES.

Easter is a great season for the dress.
makers; that is. for the good dressmakers
OF course it is only the wealthy lady that
regularly gets an Easter Dress and she, Of
course, will have it made by only the most
| fashionable mantu-maker. An EAGLE re-
porter dropped into Mrs. M. j. Hume's
| dressmaking parlors yesterday to get some
| pointers about Easter dresses, and was
perfectly astonished at the gorgeous array
of costumes that met his eyes. Some OF
| them were completed and the balance were
so nearly completed that it was an easy
matter to ascertain what they would look
like on the ''forln divine" Mrs Hume is
certainly an artist in the dressmaking line.
and some of the most stylish women in
the churches this morning will be indebted
to her for the many admiring looks that
will be focused on them as they will walk
up the aisles to their pews.
The first costume exhibited before the
modest gaze of the reporter was one which
was just completed for Mrs. Koher. 1t
was suit of Bedford cord trimmed with
navy and was decidedly handsome.
The next was for Miss Fannie Boon, and
was certainly JOY to look at. 1t was a
street gown made Of tan alligator cloth,
trimmed with point-de-Ireland lace and
green velvet. Of course it had many other
gorgeous frills which man reporter
knows nothing about except that they are
charmingly attractive.
One of the finest dresses that will be
worn today is that which Mrs. A. T. Bush
will wear. wont Mrs. Bush look charm
ing in that" said Mrs. Hume as she held
up very stylish gray serge street gown,
made up with gray China silk, silk gimp
trimmings and other nice things
which the reporters limited modesto
vocabulary will not permit him to de-
tail. Mrs. Bush is one of the very
handsomest married ladies in town and
will appear doubly handsome today in such
a pretty and stylish new dress as that
which Mrs Hume held up for nearly fifteen
minutes before two pair of verr apprecia-
tive eyes.
The next dress brought forth by Mrs.
Hume was one which sshe had COM
pIeted for Mrs. Colonel Stewart of the
Metropole. It was tan Bedford cord
trimmed with blue velvet and fitted
without darts. This is an exceedingly
handsome dress and one that will compare

the state Of Kansas.
A very pretty and stylish dress was that
made for Mrs. r. NJ. Harvey. 1t was made
of Henrietta cloth with crepe de chine
trimmings.
Another pretty dress was that which
was NEARLY completed for Miss Bessie Nc
Coy. 1t is made of garnet surra with lastly
arranged velvet trimmings.
If you want to see something nice"
said Mrs. Hume, lust look at this
pointing to changeable blue silk dress
which a well known lawyers wife was
wearing, or perhaps more properly speak
ing, fitting on" 1t was deliberately
trimmed with cut jet girdles, and was
certainly beautiful
The last and by no means the least beau
tiful was the dress almost completed for
Mrs. c. D. Phillips. 1t was made of very
rich black gloria silk and beautifully
trimmed.

/. Colonel w. T. Burgess in company with
the Misses Moody, McCellouch, Dorsey.
| Millison and Miller, o. Wichita. gave an
| entertainment in the Reformed church at
this place Friday evening. To say it was
grand is only mild way ofsexpressing it
The audience was prrfectly delighted with
the rendition of the different Rotations.
! Although the program was lacking in
| vocal music, expected TO be given by the
| church choir it was not so much missed
! by the audience, as the aid and relief it
would have given the performers. Mr..
Burgess is refined ana polished
| gentleman, who takes pride in
| the advancement, elevating and plac-
ing on high basis the mind
of the young and rising generation, he is
| no secondary elocutionist himself, az was
demonstrated in his poem entitled Lin
coins Dream" which he rendered to per-
lection, and probably is more endearing,
| istic of our noble martyr, Abraham Lin
coin.
Miss Ruth Woody, who gave the first
recitation entitled, 1.-The Ruggles Dinner
Party" is young lady OF superior quail
fications-and a request was made to have
each young lady deliver the second recita-
tion, which shows the appreciation of their
talent.
Miss May Mccullough recited 'The
Child Martyr" and did it with that dig
nifty and perfection, only found IN ladies
of the highest attachments.
Miss Nellie Dorsey had the Minister 8
HOUSEWIFE and from her manner and adj
dress you would conclude that she really
was the Identical housewife. Her ability
is praiseworthy of her profession and she
was highly applauded.
Miss Maud Millison, who recited Day
of Judgment" and closed with the piece,
entitled, ''Hesekiah by Doubt" She is so
natural in her recitations that charac-
terizes only such who have attained those
qualities possessed by natural gift She
is doomed for higher spheres as her origin
atty deserves.
Miss Lizziy Miller, last but not the least
important, who rendered the guitar music,
is an expert on that instrument. and who.
by her mild and modest way and appear
ance, added much to the sweetness Of the
music Her performance showed that
time and perseverance rewarded her
labors. Sh els just elegant:
The general expression OF the audience
was Il wish the entertainment had lasted
longer and hope that this will not be the
last time they will visit our place"
Thus was an evening spent in our little
city, with joy and pleasure and mingled
pleasant acquaintance with some of
Wichita's favored young ladies with the
people of Cheney. We truly appreciate
their coming with the fond hope That the
future may bring more such events.
Yours, T. j. r. z.

A SENSATIONAL SUIT,
Two Attorneys Accused OF Schemins to Defeat
TIL cir Client.

If the allegations made in a suit which
was filed in the district court yesterday are
true two members of the Wyandotte coun-
ty bar and also member of a local cor
poration are placed in a rather bad light
before the public The suit was filed by
Pearl Olinger, and the Consolidated Elec-
trio Light company was made defendant.
The case is brought to set aside verdict
rendered in 1889 and to recover damages in
the sum of So GOO for personal injuries.
During the month of December, 1888,
the plaintiff while in the employ Of the
Electric Light company stretching wire
along the streets. fell from pole to the
pavement, sustaining injuries of perma-
nent character. He was a minor at that
time and lived with his father, w. L.
Olinger. In the petition yesterday the
plaintiff alleges that one month later Ben
jamin Friedburg. president and manager
of the Electric Light company, hired At
torney f. d. Hutchings and James Getty
TO bring suit against the company for Oh
niger. In other words Mr.. Friedburg en-
ployed attorneys to fight himself. 1t is
also claimed that these attorneys, without
authority from the plaintiff or his next
best friend filed suit on February z,
1889, against the Consolidated Electric
Light company for 5000 damages and
without being requested Friedburg, the
defendant, signed the plaintiffs bond as
security for costs. Olinger alleges that
this business was all transacted without
his knowledge. He also claims that the
case was called for trial two days after it
was filed and that Hutchings and Getty,
although they had made no preparations
to try the case, informed the court that
they were ready for trial. A jury was
waived and only few witnesses were ex-
amined, so the petition recites, and no at
tempt whatever was made to prosecute
the case as it should be- These attorneys
are accused of conniving with the defend
ant at the plaintiff defeat. Judge Miller
rendered decision giving the plaintiff
judgment for SIS and costs of the case, but
Olinger says he never received l cent on
the judgment, and asks the court to set
aside the verdict and grant rehearing of
the case.-Kansas City Times.

Every hamlet, every nook and corner of

the resurrection of our risen Lord. The
spires of the great cathedral may point
high heavenward. Their mighty bells
vie with each other as if to louder peal the
sacred event. The great organ, the grand
choir may each in laundering tones tune
their strains, but nowhere has there been
more pains taking In preparation both as
regards place and program than at the
little chapel on College Hill. The house
has been repaired, papered, carpets re-
layed, in fact everything put in tidiest

up in response to a telegram from ex-
Sheriff Rufus Gone of this county, con
corning some important official business.
Il must be very important business FOO,
for Mr.. Morse, although being delegate
TO the Sumner county convention yester-
day, absolutely refused to spend enough
time with the EAGLE reporter TO even tell
him who the delegates elected were.
That's Orie: he is strictly man of bust
ness first and politics afterwards. From

was very easy matter 10 infer that some
