THE DEMURRER SUSTAINED.

In the district court yesterday case of
much interest to the citizens OF Wichita
was on trial and the decision of the court
will meet the hearty approval of nearly
all directly interested.
II will he remem bered that some years
ago subscriptions of money. land,
property. etc, were made for the purpose
of locating manufacturing interests in or
near the city aud at a meeting of the citi-
zenS at board of trade nesting II. c.
Sluss, w. : Corbett, Il. Lawrence and 4
\. Hyde were appointed as trustees of
said funds The bottom fell ont of things
and about the only manufacturing
establishments, or other enterprises estab-
lished were the Burton car works and the
two packing houses.
Some time passed and the trustees turn
ed over by naked assignment their right
10 the donations and title in them 10 some
corporations. among them the Subsidy
Land and Security company. Among the
donations turned over was one from the
Rock Island Lumber company of $500 In
money or lumber. The Subsidy Land and
Security company tried TO collect said do
nation and the lumber company refused to
pay It. Then the Subsidy company
brought suit in the district court TO collect
the same. The Rock Island Lnu Der COM
pany through their attorneys, O'B-yan &
Gordon. demurred to he facts set up in
the petition as being insufficient TO give
the Subsidy Land aud Security company
the light TO sue. The court sustained the
demurrer, holding that the trustees held
the legal title 10 those donations for the
benefi. of the people of the city of Wichita
and could not transfer their trust interests
TO 4 third party.

A CYCLONE.
A TERRIBLE AND DESTRUCTIVE
CYCLONE AT MOORE, o. T.
Eleven People Reported Killed and Hun
dreds Wounded.
The Wires All Dawn and impossible to Get
Details From There.
A CYCLONE.

What is supposed to be the most ter
rible cyclone that has ever passed over the
southwest was reported from Moore,
Oklahoma, last night.
Just dozen clicks of the telegraph and
no more is all that has been heard in this
city last night concerning it.
A message was started from Moore
to the EAGLG at $50 with a
view of giving the details of the
storm, but before half dozen words were
received the last wire went down aud the
story was left untold.
An EAGLE reporter started out to open
up every avenue through which the details
of the storm could be ascertained, but in
vain. Neither the Western Union nor the
railroad wire could reach the scene of the
storm or any other place where details
could be ascertained.
Two miles of wire line was blown down
at and near Moore, which indicates the
width of the course of the cyclone.
Enough could be gathered from all
sources to indicate that several lives have
been lost and from some source the state
ment came that eleven persons were
known to have been killed in the vicinity
of Moore.
Moore is a station on the Santa Fe road,
containing about 500 people, and is situ-
ated about bali way between Oklahoma
CITY and Norman
A telephone message from Arkansas City
confirmed the report of the cyclone, as did
meagre news received at the Santa E'e
headquarters here likewise.

ID. N. Brown, guardian of the Meow
aney minors, is upon his petition to fur

guardian in Cedar Rapids, La.
A ruling was made in the probate court
yesterday morning that will be read with
interest to claim holders against estates
Under the statutes an undertaken is class
ed first-ciass claim to be paid before a
doctors or any other claim. The court
held that the only authority to bind an
estate for any sum agreed on would be an
executor or an administrator and that
they would be compelled TO make a reason
able contract such as the court could i'll
the act of reasonable discretion prove; and
when an undertaken rendered service be-
fore the appointment of AN executor or
administrator the right to bind the estate
would rest on an implied liability. and
in order TO bind the estate the bill must be
reasonable considering the estate left,
In the estate in question 500 had been
collected by the administrator; this is
probably the entire value of the estate;
in any event the estate can not exceed $500.
The undertaker's bill was s96 and doctor

! a second-class claim, amounting to 500

doctor who rendered his services in at

and TO alleviate the suffering of his last
illness. should not be left entirely without
compensation by an undertaker's bill alb
Sorbing the entire estate
This recognizes the rule, as matter of
course that the undertaken has a right to
make an arrangemet with the friends or
relatives of the deceased by which they
bind themselves to pay whatever sum
they see fit.
The ruling was made after careful in
vestigation and without any feeling what
ever as to the particular claim and with
regret if any one should suffer by it; but
is intended to establish the rule that in
all cases the undertaken must govern the
expenses of funeral to be charged to the
estate by the condition of the deceased
and the estate left.

CONGREGATIONAL CHURCH ENTERTAIN
MENT.

An unusually fine entertainment was
given last evening at Plymouth Congraga-
tionai church by the Endeavor society.
Where all was good it is difficult to select
for special mention. Mr.. E Il. Walden
rendered fine solo. The pianist, Miss
Nina Hall, DR.. Minick aud Miss&Jessie
Minick deserve mention. Particularly
pleasing was the guitar duet by Messrs.
Cheuneth and Jameson, Mrs. X. A.
Daniels song was heartily encored, and
she responded with a beautiful sacred
song A very sweet lullaby song was that
of Mrs. Il. q. Robertson, who ought 20
have responded to the manifest desire OF
the audience for another. In a different
field Miss Opal Street was alone last even
ing, and covered herself with glory. 1t is
remarkable what perfect self-possession
she has-she is a born actress. Her recita-
tions were really fine pieces of acting Her
gestures are natural, the action is not
overdone. and she keeps up her role, as in
the Happy Little Cripple" marvelously.
This is rare even with Older elocutionists.
1t is wonderful in one so young as Miss
Opal. The imitation of failure with
which she cl osed brought the house down.
Miss Mary Halls whistlng solo was also
enthusiastically encored.

ZEPHRA.
Very Fine Enteriair men Given BY Loo
TIIrn,

The long looked for ''Zephra" was pre-
sented AZ the opera house last night and
there is no question but what it was de-
cided success. The attendance was hardly
as large as it onght to be, but it was the
first nights entertainment and people are
usually a little disposed not to attend the
first of series of performances. The in
dications are, however, that 'Zephra"
will be largely attended during the
balance OF the week, when the universal
verdict that it is we'll worthy of public
patronage viii have gone out. The scenery
is very elaborate and is pronounced by
critics 10 be much fiuer than that OF Ben
Hur."
