be the crack of a match and then would

THE WINNING TICKET.
L. II. COX NOMINATED FOR MAYOR
on THE FIRST BALLOT.
The Ticket Nominated Pronounced the
Strongest Ever Placed Before the
People of Wichita
Republicans Enthusiastic and Troublsd
With No Doubt as to the Wisdom
Of Placing Straight Ticket
in the Field

Possibly the most harmonious political
convention that has ever assembled in
the city of Wichita was the Republican
convention held yesterday in Garfield hall
to nominate a full set of city officers, ill.,
Guiding mayor, councilmen, members Of
the school board, justices, constables and
ward committeeman. While it was har-
monious it was also enthusiastic and it
seemed to be the purpose of every delegate
TO put up men for the various places in
the city government who would COM
mand the respect of the people and be a
credit to the party which will be RESPONSE
bic for their work aud acts for the next
two years.
1t is seldom that political convention
has been seen that was composed of such
clean. honorable and representative body
of delegates as that OF yesterday. The
ticket nominated is as follows:

One OF the most remarkable facts
noticeable among the great influx OF

est in the great city, her past history

the marvellous rebuilding that has
taken placs since Chicago was swept
away by the flames OF the fire of 1871.

The All the Year noand Bathing Club.


The All the Year Round Bathing club
of London was up to a few years ago
quite prominent institution in the eyes
Of sanitary scientists, though Of late
years it seems to have relapsed into a
condition of innocuous desuetude. Its
members simply pledged themselves to
battle in the Serpentine river every morn
ing in the year. 1t is hardly necessary
to say that none but the strongest con-
stitutions are able to comply with the
rules. but sturdy body Of men of vary
ing ages for several years carried out tho
obligations to the letter, and when 1t
was necessary they would choerfully
break the ice before entering the river.
Medical men frequently accompanied
the bathers. and quite a number Of pa
pers appeared in the medical journals
