SAFE WITHIN HER ARMS WAS THE PRE-
CIoUs MANUSCRIPT.
few hours ago, his peaceful, rose-em-
powered home had stood.
A lamp, accidentally overturned by
careless servant, had been the cause
of the fire. The local fire brigade had
arrived too late, and the cottage was
enveloped in cloud of smoke, through
which jets of flame shot up into the
quiet evening air.
MY wifel Edithr' Paul cried, in
frenzied anxiety, as the meaning Of
the scene burst upon him.
His housekeeper, Martha, wringing
her hands, cried out to him that Mrs.
Vaughan had been standing where he
now was, sound and unhurt, only a
few short minutes before; but that as
though suddenly remembering some
thing, she had dashed forward, before
her intention could be OWNED, and
had disappeared within the burning
house.
Her husband, distracted with alarm,
would have precipitated himself into
the building in Edith's track, but that
strong hands restrained him. He, as
well as all present, had given the un-
happy girl up for lost, when, right
through the black smoke, putting in
columns from the front entrance of the
doomed house, a slight form staggered
forth. Safe within her arms was the
precious manuscript-her rival in her
husbands love-to rescue which she
had risked her life
Paul Vaughan is great man now.
His cantata: 1.-THE Judgment of Solo
mon," was the first of a series of bril-
liant successes in the musical world.
He makes more money than he can
want and commissions pour upon him.
But although he dearly loves his art,
every spare moment OF his time is de-
voted to his wife, whom he cannot en-
dure to have out of his sight, SO dear
has she become to him. And his ten
der care Is needed now, for since that
terrible night of the fire Edith Vaughan
has been blind

are the combinations of black and

An average waltz takes dancer over

WICHITA MUSICAL CLUB.

The Wichita Musical club in its recent
trip to Hutchinson made good impress
sion upon the public by the thoroughness
with which IL did its work, and Wichita
can well feel proud OF the results accom-
plished by the music loving ladies who
compose the club They were the only
club of any class who sang their choruses
without notes This enabled the ladies To
give that attention 10 their efficient di-
rector Mrs. Nellie Hobbs Smythe, which
won for them tue first prize.
Mr.. Tomlins, in his enthusiastic talk on
Friday morning before the contest, en-
phaslZed this fact, that u have good re-
suits III chorus work, the music must be
committed to memory.
The Leavenworth. Topeka, Emporia and
in fact all the other clubs gave concerts in
their respective towns in order 20 raise
money for the expenses OF the trip to
Hutchinson. Our ladies did not ask this
OF Wichita, but they do ask their friends
to give them a crowded house next week
at concert they will give on the first an
niverSary OF their organization.

SUMNER CoUNTY's WILD MAN.

a wild man was captured in Sumner
county a few days ago, or at least he has
been living a wild lie for over month
HIS name is Henry Rakow and is a Ger
man. On the 2sth day OF March he left
the home of EDWARD Stout Il farmer living
nine miles northwest of Oxford. where he
had been working aud was never seen
anymore till Saturday last.
A search was made for him, and the
Arkansas river near the farm was thor
oughly examined but 10 trace of him
could be found. On one part Of Stout's
farm some one found fresh mound of
earth and on pushing stick into the
ground an obstruction was found and
some thought Rakow had been killed and
buried there, but no one investigated The
man had always been quiet and reserved
and beyond the fact that he had come over
from Germany ten or fifteen years ago aud
had no relatives in this country, no one
knew much of him. He owned when he
disappeared 500 in cash, farm wagon,
horeses and harness, saddle, etc, and took
none of them with him. 4 few DAYS ago
ii couple of residents from the region
where he disappeared went over to
taking out letters of administration on
his estate to ascertain if be had relatives
and If he had none to have the property
turned over to the county.
About that time boy named Neal
lister, while driving on the farm at dusk
one evening saw some one grab for his
horses reins and missing them grab his
leg and then let go and run away.
Saturday the missing man, to the
establishment of Stout. his family and en-
pioyes, came toward the house from
wheat field. He was captured and Is
being taken care of by Stout and his wife.
He is said 10 be in an exceedingly
emaciated condition, being about as thin
and weak as any person could be. He is
demented, but from his mutterings and
other evidence. it seems that he has spent
the entire time since his departure on
Stout's farm not great distance from
the house, living on corn and wheat aud
sleeping in a strawstack
