What more, fQrsooth, can anybody
ask of Minneapolis:
w. J. Campbell, member OF the Re
publican national committee from u
noiS, came up to Minneapolis yesterday
to look The ground over and see how the
cenYentioG Is going to be accommo-
dated. He came to see particularly how
the Illinois delegation was to be ac-
commodated He found that the local
committees had done their work so well
that there was nothing left for him to
do. Mr.. Campbell would not talk poll
tics.
1t has been definitely settled that the
tickets to the national convention will
be Sold--that is, these tickets reserved
by the national committee for the use
of the local committees will be sold. II
will not be bargain sort of sale, but
the tickets will be put up for sale and
will be disposed of at from S25 to $50,

have some tickets left to be dis
tribdted among the visitors and Mime
apolis people. There is some kicking
from the early contributors TO the guar
anty fund. Many of them contributed
all they could afford to at the start. and
they do not like the idea of matters
being so managed at this late hour that
they must 90 without tickets or stay
out of the convention hall. IL they had
held off ut the start they might have
been able to get tickets without paying
extra for them.
E.. V. SmaIley. Col. J. II. Davidson,
II. b. Wheeler and r. X. Dorr came over
from st. Paul yesterday TO confer with
the Minneapolis committee relative to
accommodating some of the people in
st. Paul. The conference was mutually
satisfactory.
The railroads have made such ar
engagements for taking care OF the rush
during the convention that they are able
to guarantee that there will be over 100
additional short line trains to carry peO-
pie from Minneapolis to st. Paul and
back again.

A REMARKABLE TALE.

BAsTRoP. La, May 24.-An extraord-
mary murder and lynching occurred
here yesterday. One man committed
the murder and one man did the
lynching, with the assistance OF
the murderer. Schambliss- Brigham,
manager for Col. George c. Phillips, who
owns plantation on Island De Siard,
while in the field was shot dead from
ambush by an old negro. The negro
then walked to the plantation residence,
summoned Col. Phillips. and told him
that he had killed Brigham and wanted
to be hanged for it. Col. Phillips put a
rope around the Negroes neck, and the
negro was soon swinging in death
struggle from the limb of tree. No
motive is assigned for the murder, and
it is thought that the negro was insane.

Committees Rejected - Expenses

Committees Rejected - Expenses
of the Year.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa, MAY 24.-The
convention of the Baptist union began
it's seventy-eighth anniversary meeting
today with Rev. George Northrup.D.D.,
LII. D., presiding. The announcement
of committees by the president caused
some delay to the mornings proceed
ings. When he had concluded Rev.
Dr. H. J.. Wayland, editor of the Ma
tlonal Baptist, called attention to the
fact that, Notwithstanding the utterance
of the convention of 1889. the list of
committees showed that the laymcn
were not equally represented, and he
thought it hardly fair to bring the truly
competent laymen from all sections of
the country and then give them nothing
to do. This caught the approval of the
union, and the committees were rejected
by large majority vote.
Rev. Henry g.. Mabre, ID. D., home sec
rotary, read the report of the executive
committee. In pursuance of the vote of
the union at its last annual meeting, the
work of the union was planned on a
scale involving an expenditure OF &c.
100000. The annual expenses. includ-
ing payment of the deficit of s6l, 1894
from the previous year, were S625, 627 "a,
an increase of S102 1860 over the pre-
vious year. The receipts were increased
500, 9oS.O7, being 1869, 1928. Although
there is debt of sec, 754.31, the financial
result of the year must be considered a
cause for encouragement. The eXpendi-
lures of the society have increased
1922, IS in the last three years, and
have more than doubled in the last nine
years.
The report of Treasurer E. P. Cole
man showed balance against the treas
ury of S67,754.31. The receipts aggre-
gated $3.50. 1888. Of this amount $685.

PRESIDENT FOLKS WILL.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, May "a. - Ex-
President James K. Folks Will was de-

the city limits sufficient to allow bridges
to be built over them at an even grade
with the present street crossings. This

Parry did not see his way clear, and,
even after being enlightened, Insisted
that the report was not the proper caper.
He said the people did not want any
such outrageous demands to be made
upon the railway company, and he
should oppose it strenuOusly.
You speak for your ward only, don't
you?" asked Aid. Hunter.

4 HONDURAS ENTHUSIAST.

John T. Sanders ex-probate judge OF
Sumner county spent yesterday in the
city on business visit. He recently re-
turned from sixty days visit to Honduras,
Central America, where he went in the
interests of Wellington syndicate who
desired to buy and improve land there.
He had just secured an option on 2.O0)
acres when he received the intelligence Of
the destruction of a part of the city of
Wellington and then Of course, he could
not complete the deal as cyclone losses fell
heavily on members of the syndicate His
option is still good and it may be yet pos
sible for him to see bis way clear to COM
plets the deal He says Honduras is q re-
markedly fertile country and that the
land there is capable of producing 500
worth of bananas per acre per year Wi n
little or no work attached 10 it. The land
there Is worth $40 per acre, costs about sls
to clear it and when the banana crop is
planted it Dever requires re-planting but
produces right along like a Kansas or
ehard He speaks highly of the climate
and thinks. in the whole, that it is destin-
ed to be a great country when settled 10y
Americans which it probably will be at no
distant day.

A CLEVER DOG.

W. H. Baker who offices IN the Manhat-
an hotel, is grieving over water spaniel
that was stolen from him few days ago.
Very few people grieve over the loss OF
spaniel, but this one was not only remark
ably clever but was self-supporting rs
well. He went down to the river every
morning after breakfast during the past
month or so with his master, and they
invariably returned with enough fish TO
make a creditable dinner for half dozen
persons. He learned the art OF fishing by
accident. One Sunday he aud his master
went down TO the river and Mr. Baker
threw a c!od in the water and ordered the
spaniel 10 60 after it. He did SO and dived
to the bottom; but instesd Of finding the
elod be came across nice, plump catfish
and brought him to the shore Seeing
that his master approved this be went ia
four or five times more. and never failed
70 get n fish when he went IN. The more
he fshed The better he liked 1t, and there
was hardly day when he didh't make a
dozen or more fish wish the never had
been born One peculiar feature about
bis fishing was that he never put tooth
in the meat III d fish. BIZ. Baker thinks
the dog has been taken TO Oklahoma

HICKS HIT 1T ALL RIGHT.

The prediction made by Hicks, the
weather prophet, that yesterday would be
the hottest day of the year Was a good one,
so far as that portion of the year that has
passed is concerned. The thermometer At
the signal service Office stood between -
and 9S at its highest point The result Of
this excessive heat Was that during several
hours very little business was done except
on the shady side OF the street. Cool
drinks were what every body was after.
and lemonade went as fast rs II could be
shaken up.
While ii may seem hot to the people of
Wichita, there was no room for kicking
when it is remem bered that the mercury
stood several degrees higher most every
where else. A letter from Bioomi nrton,
Ills, TO one of the employees of the EAGLE
stated that the mercury climbed TO lG2 at
thai place Wednesday, while it was only
about 50 here.
DIR. johnson of the weather department
thinks il will grow cooler commencing
with today. This he bases on adyices from
Washington.

FELL INTO A SALT PAN.

This morning about o'clock, as the
Jesse Durham salt scraper at the works in
the north part of the city, was engaged in
shoveling salt upon IA barrow, and stand
ing upon the drip board, the wooden in
cline which slopes into the pan, he slipped
| and fell into the boiling brine, immersing
his feet, the lower part of his limbs and
his left arm. When failing he threw ont
his right arm and caught one of the posts
which are placed ut intervals around the
pan and this saved his body and face from
scalding. He quickly pulled himself out
and WAS made as comfortable possible
by Fred Cave, the fireman, while ply
slciau was sent fer. DR.. Morgan Martin
soon arrived and Mr.. Durham was placed
under the influence OF opiates, when n
wagon was procured and be was removed
to his home with his father. Here the
doctor dressed the burns, which were
quite serious and extremely painful, and
Mr.. Durham is resting easily today, still
being somewhat under the influence OF
opiates. The accident was due TO his i'm
prudence in venturing too far upon the
drip board.-W ellington Mail.
Jesse Durham is the son of Elder Dur
ham who is well known by almost all the
Baptists in this county and particularly
we'll known in Wichita
