SIZE WANTS 10 BE A JESTER.

Ellie Dora Dunbar was the fair COM
plainant that filed an application in the
district court Yesterday, asking to be dl-
vorced from John Arthur Dunbar and. re-
stored to her maiden name, which Is
Jester From the story told in the com
plant by that picturesque writer, sam
Amidon, John Arthur must have been
very bad man He cursed her, called her
names, abused her, made the world dlsa-
greeable to her, failed TO provide properly
for her through laziness, shiftlesSness and
general stiffness of the spinal column.
More than that. she accuses him OF being
an inmate of the county jail during their
nupUial career, for theft.
Now then. it is reported IN connection
with the fling of this case, that Efhe Dora
followed ont the wisdom of that OLD adage
which says Never throw out the dirty
water till YOU have clean water within"
for IL seem, that in a very short time after
being resUored TO the name of Jester. she
will change that to something else, which
. it Ia not uecess try to state here. Indeed,
il is said that "A we'll known business man.
who has had a little divorce experience

DIR. WINTERS SERVICES.

While the snow was whirling in the
streets and about the corners of the church
last night, the congregation assembled TO
hear DIR. Winters We're singing 'Fhis VIII
Be Heaven for Me-" and as people came
into the vestibule they heard Evangelist
Shaver singing Come, Sinner, Come"-a
striking picture of those conditions men
toned by the Word as existing with the
unsaved as they pause between their
former life and belief in Christ: without,
wind and sleeu and snow aud slippery
WAYS: within, warmth and light and
Quiet and the constant loving call, Come
unto Me"
DR.. Winters spoke briefly on the
subject of continual prayer, urging
the wisdom and duty of praying IN word
and deed throughout the day. when we
pray for temporal things" he said, 'after
we have presented our petition it is we'll
to abide Gods answer in peace. But
when we pray for courage, grace, or any
other spiritual blessing, we must pray
continuously and not faint. When the
woman came to seek of the judge, she
came to stern man, but you that come
to God come to Father full of love, faith
fulluess and righteousness. The unjust
Judge at last relented for the suppiicant'
pleading, but God only waits the first cry,
Sse came without a friend at court, but
we have the great Advocate, Jesus, 10
intercede for US. She had GO promise oil
mercy or justice, but we can ever plead
Gods promises"
The services tonight will be opened by
Mr.. Shaver's special choir, at the usual
hour.

ORDERED OUT.

A telegram was received here last night
over the Western Union wire, from the
chief of the Order of Railway TeleSra-
pliers, ordering the local operators con-
pected with the Rock Island in this city
out on strike this morning at 10 O'Clock,
and they are prepared to obey if another
order is not received to the contrary.
The grievance of the Rock Island opera
tors is precisely the same rs the grievance
of the Santa Fs men, who were ordered
out six weeks ago. They want mora sal
airy, and pay for extra work.
The strike, coming at this time. Will
have very damaging effect on the
Rock Island interests in Kansas, as
nearly all their trains are more or less
snowbouud all over the system in this
state. If the strike goes into effect it will
add to the Inconvenience, for even II the
trains succeed in getting out of the snow
banks they c.nnot move without tete-
graphic orders The result will be tina {
many of them caBno5 move wheel and
the inelement weather will make 1t
mighty uncomfortable for the delayed
passengers. The operators. however, will
remain in their Offices to protect the prop
erty of the company.

HATES CRIME.

The inquest over the remains OF Johnny
Horton, the victim OF Art Hates knife
blade, continued the case yesterday ana
after hearing all the evidence having any
bearing on the case they arrived at The
following verdict at p. m:
STATE OF KANSAS, -
SEDGWICK COUNTY.
An inouistiou holden at my Office at the
court house in the city of Wichita, Seag
,yick county. Kansas, on the Ith day OF
Dacamher 1895. before me, NJ. NJ McCol-
lisier coroner of Sedgwick county, on the
dead body OF John Horton there lying
dead. by the Jurors whose names are mere
uuto subscribed. The sad jurors, upon
their oatht, do Say that from the testl-
mouy given, the deceased came to his
death from stab ID the BACK from knife
in the hands of Art Hates.
\. COVINGToN,
f. HODGES.
W G.. GILBERT,
JACOB MCAFFEE,
j. ROBINSON,
d VI. SIDNEY,
Jury.
In testimony whereof, the said Jurors
have hereunto set their hands The day ana
year above written.
Attest: VI. NJ. AGCoLLlsThK,
Coroner.
Owing to the fact that both the deeeas-
ed and Hates were colored Coroner Nc
Colester deemed 1t the proper thing TO
have all colored men on the jury.
Hates WAS placed in one of the iron cells
in the rotary OF the county Jail yesterday.
There was some foolish talk among the
friends Of the dead man about lyDchIng
him but that would be foolish move as
the lynchers could not II ulster up enough
adherents to have any hope Of taking the
prisoner from the Jail. OF course Sheriff
Ault while he did not attach much I'M
portance to the threat deemed it not out
Of place to take precautionary steps by
strengthening the guard Of the Jail.
When an EAGLE aeporter called at Hates
cell late in the afternoon he was reclining
OF his ouch looking int Q the gloomy future
of his lie no doubt, but upon being spoken
10 he arose and placed his face 70 the iron
bars. He declined to tell his side of the
story connected with the affray that lead
TO Horizons death, stating that he will tell
his story in the court alone. He will be q
years old on next Christmas day, but he
looks somewhat older. He is not very
black and seems to possess average lntelil-
gence. He is a brother-inlaw 10 Theodore
Reed, ianitor Of the city building, and has
lived in Wichita some six or seven years.
When asked why he stayed so near home
after committing his crime, he said that
he had no idea the result would be death.
and stated that he only left Wichita tenn
porarily thinking that Horton would be
we'll in few days and that the affair
would blow over and he could come back.
The penalty for sucn crime is usually a
heavy one, and for similar offense,
Camille Lopez, the Mexican, was sen
fenced to thirty years by Judge Reed
something like year ago.

DID HE WIN OR LOSE?
WICHITA. Kan. Dec.

WICHITA. Kan, Dec Z, 1892.
To the Editor Of the Eagle
A bet was made prior TO the recent cleo
ton that Weaver would get the electoral
vote of Kansas The official returns
show that only nine of the electors on
the fusion ticket were elected, the remain
ing one being Il Harrison elector. Does
the man win the money who bet that
Weaver would get the electoral vote
READER
The presumption would be that the man
betting that Weaver would get the cleo
toral vote of Kansas WAS intending to bet
that he would carry" Kansas, that he
would have a majority of ali the votes
cast or that he would have a plurality;
and if the bet was TO be determined on the
intention of the parties betting, the
Weaver man would get the money. But
this question would probably be consid-
cred only in a court, and there be could
not recover at all, as the contract would be
declared gambling one and not to be en-
forced at all
The electoral vote of state, as the
words are generally used, means all the
electoral votes to which that state Is entl-
tied They are never used to mean ma
iority or minority of those votes. You
never hear persons speaking of the cleo
toral votes of state; it is the word vote
that is used and undoubtedly means an
entirety AS the vote Row stands, accord
ing to the returns made by the state board
of canvassers' Weaver did not receive the
electoral vote of Kansas. AS the matter
of the errors of the clerks of Sedgwiek and
Wilson counties. that brought about the
election OF one of the Harrison electors, is
one that may yet find its way into the
courts it would be well not to conider the
wager won or lost until after the meeting
of the electoral college.
