suMNsR COUNTY NERVE
An Argonfa Man on ring Two 10 Oae That
sumner County Goes for Long.


r. F. Harxrove, a prominent stockmau
Of Argoeia. Sumner county. Was in the
city yesterday and bet to standstill on
Hon. Chester l. Long. He heard about
the snaps up here and concluded he would
take some OF them. Accordingly he load
ed up a few cars Of stock yesterday morn
ing, brought them to the stock yards here.
turned them into cash and immediately
started out cunning for Simpson hackers
At first he had hard time finding Them
but after while he succeeded. The plan
OF the Republicans is TO make the other
fellows mad till they lose their heads so TO
speak, and then they get them, Cor a man
will bet when he gets hot quicker than at
any other time Mr. Hargrove adopted
this plan and he succeeded in getting a
few nice bets involving good many dol
lars. When he had bet TO standstill ia
this manner ne offered better inducements
by putting up to that Long will carry
Sumner county This is big odds but it
looks still bigger when one remembers the
fact that Simpson carried Sumner county
two years ago by nearly 1900 majority.
Two years ago the Alliance elected every
man on their ticket in Sumner county by
froa 800 to 1900, but last year the Repub-
licans elected their entire county ticket by
from 300 to 400 Since then the Republic
cabs have steadily gained so there is really
no question about Long carrying the
county by safe majority. Mr.. Ha.grove
is = stock buyer and travels all over the
county and it is to be presumed that he
has dead cinchor he wouldn't DO giving
such odds.

A WICHITA Roy.

The medical expert In the famous Pal
mer murder trial, now going on Sacra-
mento, CAL, is 10 less than DR.. George
Martin. formerly Wichita boy and sou
of John Martin, the present councilman
from the Sixth ward. The Pacific slope
papers pronounce him a wonder in expert
estimony. The Sacramento News, refer.
ring to him in two-eolumn article,
among other things says:
DR.. G H. Martin Of San Francisco, was
then called. He is quite young looking
man, but he demonstrated to the court,
jury and attorneys that in experience and
knowledge he was far older than he
looked. He was an unusually bright wit
ness answering the questions quickly and
Clearly, and never once getting ''rattled."
He is AN expert on mental Diseases and
lectures on that subject in various col
leges at the metropolis. He said he had
heard the hypothetical question asked Dr.
Nichols by the defense, and had no hest
fancy in saying that the Subject" was
insane when the fatal shot was fired.
Being asked for his reasons for so con-
Guiding. the Doctor commenced with
Palmer's grandparents and discussed Oh
hereditary insanity; told how the disease
sometimes skips generation and finds
Judgment in a family later Oh; alluded to
paternal grandparent, who was insane:
related Paimer's delusions; illusions and
hallucations-and from all these found
that Palmer is insane.
Dr. Martin said that he had studied
Palmer's case in the minutest detail. He
had visited Palmer In the county Jail,
carefully coaceaIiug his name and pro-
fession. The first thing he observed Was
Palmer's walk-that he held his legs far
apart in walking. characteristic of GER

delusion was where there was belief in 4

by proof. From Pslmer's actions during

THE RIGHT MAN.

! Professor j. S. Carson, the Republican
candidate for superintendent OF Sedgwck
county, was born in Washington county,
His, in 1859. He WAS raised or the farm,
attending the district school during the
winter months and working on the farm
during the summer time, as is customary
with the average farmers son. He entered
MckeDdell college at II, where he took
high rank as student from the start, and
after four years of hard work he completed
the classical course, graduating with the
highest honors in a large class in 1881, of
which we was valedictorian. After taking
course at the state normal training
school at Normal, Ills, Mr.. Carson en-.
gagged in the school work, teaching in the
county and city schools of Illinois and
Kansas. Daring the last five years he has
served as principal in the Wichita schools
Professor Carson is thoroughly equip
ped, both in education and experience in
all grades of school work, to assume the
! responsible position of experimenting the
schools of Sedgwick county; and if ell
trusted to his care the Sedgwick county
schools will maintain the position they
have occupied in the front ranks.
The people of Sedgwick county should
see to it that they make no mistake, and
take no risk in selecting the right man to
superintend the education. They can well
afford to disregard politics when by so
doing they can secure the person best
qualified by education and experience In
addition to these qualifications Mr. Carson
is Identified with the interests of Sedg-
wick county, having been resident here
for eight years. while his opponent is
teacher in Sumner county. teaching in the
Foruey school district.

THE PIRicLEsIANs

Last monday night this society present
ed very good program though it was cut
short on account of tie large amount OF
business to be transacted. The debate
Resolved. That women should have the
right to propose, was bright with new
ideas and spicy with bits of personal ex-
perience and expectation. At the bush
ness meeting is was decided to use the
quotation and current topic for roll call,
thus making the roll call literary feature
of the evening Also the long talked OF
historical evenings" were arranged for.
This plan consists Of devoting one even
ing's entire program to the history OF a
certain country or nation. The following
famous people will be taken up in turn:
The Isrealites, Persians, Greeks, Romans
and the English. So far as practical, the
old ruts are 10 be ignored and new line
of work adopted. The social customs and
the extaut literature OF each nation to be
most carefully studied, also the reciprocal
influence upon civilization. The Perics
have taken in charge the memorial pro-
gram of President Garfeld's birth an occa-
sion always honored in the university.
The program will be published later. This
society is very enthusiastic and is doing,
on the whole. honest literary work. While
organized primarily for the advancement
OF its members visitors are always heartily
welcomed.

MOVEMENT IN ZEAL ESTATE.

The demand for every description of
real estate is becoming undeniable in
Southern Kansas. There has been nothing
like the present demand for farms and I'M
broken prairie and for city lois improved
and unimproved, for five years or more.
The truth is the fact that South Kansas
for agricultural purposes is the garden
spot of the west and that all her towns
must inevitably grow seems to be slowly
dawning upon the comprehension of the
outside world. W. d. Mccormick, who
has for nine years past been one of the
most reliable real estate dealers Of this
section, aud who carries a fine list of prop
erty, as will be found in another column,
says if the average middle state farmer
knew of the chances here aud how much
more they could make by selling out there
and investing here. and how much better
land and climate they would have. all
South Kansas would be f1oodsd with buy
ers. Mr.. Mccormick gives it as his
opinion that no portion of the west offers
such great inducements or such guarsn-
tees of profit as would be found In perma-
nent investments made in farm and city
property of this section at present prices.

ELECTRICAL WONDERS

Professor Blake, in his Friday night
lecture. held the rapt attention of his audi
ence while he explained some Of the gi-
gantic strides made in the knowledge OF
electrical phenomina.
BY numerous experiments he led the
mind OF each nearer away from the old
conception of electricity rs something
travelling in a wire like a river in its chan
mel, aud showed that almost the whole
practical and even theoretical field lay in
the region around the wire in the lines
of force.
His use of the steroeptican t. means of
illustrating his work is certainly demon
strating the value OF the instrument in
taking the place OF charts or expensive
diagrams in the class.
BY means of powerful electro-magnet
weighing nearly six hundred pounds, he
performed numerous striking expert
ments.
The subject of Either" formed . large
part of the lecture, and the fact that ether
in one form of vibration is electricity
and in another form is light, was state
ment new to many.
He stated that he believed the electric
light of the future would be without wires
in the house.
He had seen the wonderful results in
this line achieved by "Tesla'' VINO has, by
means Of enormously high potentials and
rapid alterations astonished the scientific
world.
He described the transferance of power
from Niagara Falls by meaus of u wire
and did not carry the current but only
directed it, while the ''ether" in the vicin-
lty of the wire was potent with the force
which WAS sufficient to send great ocean
steamer across the Atlantic.
Some of the audience who imagined
themselves fairly we'll versed in electricity
seemed hopeleSsly lost in this new subject
and while the Professor talked of the
weight and density Of the ether, and the
number of lines Of force in an inch as
shown by experiments with soap bubble
films aud the spectrum, they realized the
of Columbus venturing over an
unknown sea.
At the close Of the lecture large num-
Der gathered around the Professor and
asked questions.
Those who are not students of electricity
but simply wish to see aud enjoy the ex-
periments will do we'll to attend the re-
naming lectures, rs the preliminary work
is now about finished.

WICHITA ALL RIGHT.
TWO THOUSAND INCREASE OF POP.
ULATION.
New Residences, New Business Houses
New Lines of Trade, and a Strong
Advance in Rents

| The marked and sudden increase OF pop
ulation Of this city of late is so surprising
as to be generally commented upon, and
| not few are the reasons and explanations
| assigned by those whose business or pro
fession rendered the increase of strange
faces more conspicuous. For three or foul
months past this increase has been steady
and is evidently still going on
The school board have been compelled te
employ eight additional teachers for the
schools. and that too iu face of the fact
that Garfield university had reopened and
Paramount commenced its first year. These
facts. as also the city directory, just out,
show that there has been added to the pop
ulation of Wichita in three or four months
something like two thousand people. Upon
consulting the directory and by inquiring
it is found that a per cent of the in
crease consists or is made up
of returning wanderers, and that quite
another per cent. are from other sections
of this state, but still many from other
states, as the registration books show.
This increase of population was little ex-
pected at this time. After the national
election and all matters has been settled
politically four years more. especially if
the election made il certain that there
were to be no violent changes in the policy
OF the administration of public affairs, a
western movement of population and of
investments was to have been expected, in
which event Wichita with all her advan-
tages could not fail of getting her share.
Bue the increase OF population coming in
advance and the growing demand for
property here simply indicates that
opposition and reaction have spent
their forces and that Wichita
has again started Oh the race for the goal
which it has always been conceded she
would reach sooner or later Or course
such an increase has had its effect on rents
Some of the larger business blocks, such
as the Zimmerly have more renters and
occupants than for years. A large num-
Der OF residents from speculative additions
are being moved in. aud all such are i'm
mediately taken possession of. The new
business rooms erected this summer on
Main street are occupied, and large num-
Der of smaller business places on side
streets have been re-opened lately. AS for
frst-f1oor sales rooms on either of the bust
ness streets we do not know of single one
while new business blocks, fifty
foot front. three stories high and 120 feet
deep is being erected at the corner of
Market and Douglas.
Wichita is all right.
