an oil lamp in his cell. when it exploded i'll
some way, and the oil dripping on the
floor caused a snail blaze. The Oil also
was split all over his hand and when lie

A PE,Kr BOY,

Young America is exceedingly handy

aud cheerful What must little boy do

ATTEMPTED JAZZ DELIVERY.

Tuesday night another attempt was
made by some of the prisoners OF the coun-
~ jail TO gain their freedom, and had 1t
not been for the vigilence Of the officials
they would undoubtedly have succeeded.
Those who attempted the delivery were
bows. to whom Mr.. Ault gave more liberty
than usual on account of their age. In
fact, all the attempts that have been made
RECENTLY TO break is.il have been made by
bows. They had taSea out a1 ons Inside

4 Proposition on roat secure an Industrial
school for iehta-

There is a movement on foot among the
humanitarians of the city and the minis
terial association TO seeure the location OF
some sort OF an industrial school IN
Wichita for boys, II seems shat there are
now in the city in Jail and outside OF the
jail as high as tnirty-five iDcorrigable
BOYS who are steadily deeendlng the down
ward path 10 vice and crime aud 1t Is
absolutely necessary TO do something
Quick to save some of these little chaps
from the penitentiary or perhaps the
scaffold for If they continue gong down
ward as steadily during The next few
wears as they have the past few years they
will be dead to all sense OF doing what Is
right and lawful. Most Of them are too
far gone to leave them in the streets and
if they are sent TO Jail their associations
there will only serve TO make them still
worse The proper place for them Is an
industrial school, where they are not only
reformed. but where they can also secure
a trade. which will enable them TO make
an honest living. Senator elect I'd
O'Bryan and Hon. George L. Douglas are
now engaged in drafting bill, the pass
age Of which they will try to secure Ia the
next legislature covering the subject.

HUNTERS In TROUBLE.
Tie Indians Enraged Over the Wholesale De-
struction OF Game in the Territory.

Lewis Van Amburg was up from Hen
Messy Yesterday and brought with him
the intelligence that the Indians located at
Cantonment are highly enraged over the
wholesale destruction of game In that
neightorhood by parties from Kansas and
Oklahoma and are insisting that the mill
tary authorities must stop il. 1t they 90
not it is feared that the Indians will take
the matter into their own hands and that
blood will be split The Indians claim that
white men have no right TO hunt On their
land any more than they would have
right to hunt on the lands of the farmers
of Kansas without their permission. Ihey
hold that they are tresspassers and that
the government is bound 20 afford them
protection. II the government fails to &C
cord them protection from hunters or any
other tresspassers they hold that they
have perfect right TO protect themselves,
even to the extent of using firearms
Earlier in the season there was gooo
deal oil game in that locality, and the In
dians looked forward to a winter of plenty
but since the advent OF the hunters game
has become very scarce, for what Is not
killed is scared away by the country being
overrun with hnntiug parties, who shoot
at everything IN sight without regard 20
it's value. The young Indians are partlcu-
larly enraged and can barely be controlled
by the elder oues till the government offl-
Gals pass upon the question.
