NEW YORK, June 30.-President
Cleveland's action in calling an extra
session OF congress for August 7th was
decided surprise in financial circles.
at frat the report was not credited, for
the reason that ever since the crisis in
silver and the money markets there
have been almost hourly rumors about
an extra session. When, finally, the
bankers and stock operators were con-
yinced, there was decided feeling OF
relief and the concensus of opinion was
that the tendency OF financial and com.
mercial affaira would henceforth be in
the direction OF improvement.

A DISGRACE.

Sedgwick county has charge in the per-
son of little deaf and dumb boy, who is
farther afflicted in having only one leg.
He is bright and happy though in spite of
his misfortunes. 1t is the custom to send
him back and forth to the deaf and dumb
institute at Olathe and during the recess
he is brought here and kept at the poor
farm. He arrived home, if such a place
for an unfortunate little fellow, can be
called home. a few days ago. aud instead
of being met at the depot by the oyersrer,
as has been the custom heretofore.
he was taken to Jail, TO be kept
till such time as the overworked
overseer could call for him. Just think CT
the little fellows surprise. Penned up
with lot of criminals. 1t was more than
he could stand, if he was deaf, dumb and
one-legged, and he cried pitifnlly. Aud
his cup of sorrow touched the tender
heart of Miss Mamie Ault, the sheriff's
daughter. She took him under her pro-
tecting care, but it was some time before
he could be made to forget the keen dis
grace that had been heaped upon him by
those under whose care misfortune had
placed him and who should be his friends

THOSE ROBBERS.

Chief Deputy United States Marshal
Madison of Oklahoma, ex-Sheriff HiXon of
Logan county, o. T., and Hector Thomas,
the well known detective, arrived in the
city last night from Hennessey, o. T.,
where they had been to identify the par
ties arrested there night before last on
suspicion of being the Cimarron train
robbers
Mr.. Madison saw at glance that they
were not the men wanted, and they were
Immediately discharged. All three Of
them, however, believe that the robbers
will soon be caught, as the entire country
is being secured for them. Mr.. Madison
is, of course, too sbrewd man to give
away his plans, but it was evident from
his conversation that the day is not far
distant when the robbers viii be brought
to justice.
They remained in the city last night
and will leave for parts unknown this
morning.

THE ES1EarArxnrSr At PARAMOUNT.

The entertainments at the FairmoUnt Iu-
stitute last II ight must be set down as
great success, from every standpoint
There was Il large attendance. all that
could be accommodated: the program was
all that could be desired, as was evinced
by the hearty applause and frequent en-
cores and the refreshments most delicious
The overture put down ON the program
was omitted. and in its stead the Wichita
Musical club charmed the audience with
its delightful music. This club never dis
appoints its hearers. and an encore is al
ways demanded, and this must prove
great bother TO the members because it is
so much trouble to move from their
seats back and forth 10 the rostrum.
Miss Mathis gave selection in French
language. 1.-The Tree Toad by Miss
Minerva Hart was most delightful reci-
tation and pleased the audience i'm
mensely. Little Opal Street, in the ex-
pressive parlance of the day. is daisy. If
she don't make her mark in the world
hundreds of people will miss their guess.
Her recitation was charming to the very
last degree, and she WAS called back
twice, the last time making only most
profound courtesy.
Tie Musical club finished the first part
of the program with beautiful chorus
under the skillful dictatorship of Mrs.
Robert Smyth, as all of their
numbers were, and the farce
comedy, ''The Mouse Trap" by w. D.
Howells, was given. And to say that it
was well done would be superfuous. All
the characters maintained their parts ad-
mirably, and invidious mention would
mar the whole thing The delighted au-
dience then repaired to the rooms below
the auditorium, where refreshments were
served. Then delightful, cool and merry
ride home. 1t was charming success.

on the head and one on the neck The
cutting was done with a butcher knife in
the absence of razor, with which caIored
men usually do their carving. White

had not been seen. No arrests We're made.
